Ep92 Breakups & BookTok
<p>With Aaron and Derek out, Pri and Chris hold down the fort and kick things off with Pri’s breakup with Claude, unpacking why AI models feel increasingly different in tone, usefulness, and cost. And why power users are becoming their own routers. From there, they move into “Woke 3,” AOC’s political rebrand, prediction markets, and renewed movement around crypto’s CLARITY Act. The conversation turns to Stonkbrokers, Base, and a provocative Gen Z survey suggesting sports betting is becoming part of the financial plan, opening a broader debate around gambling, risk, and whether sports could ever function as an asset class. They then zoom out to influencer culture, ASU’s content creation major, Sun Belt hockey, and the rise of “Y’all Street.” The back half becomes an impromptu book club, spanning Wiseguy, The Diamond Age, Don DeLillo, and a striking comparison between 1870s railway speculation and today’s AI infrastructure boom. The episode wraps with a history-rich discussion of Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Shōgun, Jesuit trade networks, Ray Dalio, Rome’s Illyrian emperors, and the economic forces that shape conflict, empire, and technology.</p><p><strong><br>Mentioned in the episode</strong></p><p>Stonkbrokers<a href="https://opensea.io/collection/stonkbrokers-434284142"> https://opensea.io/collection/stonkbrokers-434284142</a></p><p>Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act<a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/3633"> https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/3633</a></p><p>Gen Z Is Moving Money From Stocks to Sports Betting in Wealth Plans<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-08-12/gen-z-investors-turn-to-sports-betting-to-build-wealth"> https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-08-12/gen-z-investors-turn-to-sports-betting-to-build-wealth</a></p><p>Content Creation, BA at Arizona State University<a href="https://degrees.apps.asu.edu/bachelors/major/ASU00/CSCCBA/content-creation"> https://degrees.apps.asu.edu/bachelors/major/ASU00/CSCCBA/content-creation</a></p><p>Dallas’ “Y’all Street” Rivals New York<a href="https://www.axios.com/local/dallas/2024/08/16/dallas-financial-services-hub-yall-street"> https://www.axios.com/local/dallas/2024/08/16/dallas-financial-services-hub-yall-street</a></p><p>Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi<a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Wiseguy/Nicholas-Pileggi/9781982129903"> https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Wiseguy/Nicholas-Pileggi/9781982129903</a></p><p>The Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson<a href="https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/24031/the-diamond-age-by-neal-stephenson/9780241953198"> https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/24031/the-diamond-age-by-neal-stephenson/9780241953198</a></p><p>White Noise by Don DeLillo<a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/323270/white-noise-by-don-delillo/"> https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/323270/white-noise-by-don-delillo/</a></p><p>Underworld by Don DeLillo<a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Underworld/Don-DeLillo/9780684848150"> https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Underworld/Don-DeLillo/9780684848150</a></p><p>1873 by Liaquat Ahamed<a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/306461/1873-by-liaquat-ahamed/"> https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/306461/1873-by-liaquat-ahamed/</a></p><p>Shōgun<a href="https://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/shogun/characters/viewers-guide/timeline-and-history"> https://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/shogun/characters/viewers-guide/timeline-and-history</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Show & Hosts</strong></p><p>Net Society: <a href="https://x.com/net__society">https://x.com/net__society</a></p><p>Aaron Wright: <a href="https://x.com/awrigh01">https://x.com/awrigh01</a></p><p>Chris F: <a href="https://x.com/ChrisF_0x">https://x.com/ChrisF_0x</a></p><p>Derek Edwards: <a href="https://x.com/derekedws">https://x.com/derekedws</a></p><p>Priyanka Desai: <a href="https://x.com/pridesai">https://x.com/pridesai</a></p><p>Producer/Editor: <a href="https://x.com/0xFnkl">https://x.com/0xFnkl</a></p><p><br></p>

Ep91 Good Fences Make Good Agents
<p>The Net Society crew kicks things off with Pri’s costly Stonkbrokers miss and a look at Robinhood’s growing onchain ambitions, asking whether established companies may be better positioned to deliver crypto’s promise than crypto-native players. From there, Chris takes the group deep into the enclosure movement, sparking a debate over property rights, internet commons, and whether NFTs can create useful scarcity online. The conversation then turns to increasingly autonomous AI agents, secret agent message boards, Cloudflare’s crypto infrastructure, and what a machine economy built around blockchains might look like. They debate agent rights, consciousness, model specialization, speed, and Google’s place in an AI-first world before moving into AI-designed viruses, telepathy, brain-computer interfaces, and synthetic neurocomputing. The episode wraps with the idea of AI as a Rosetta Stone for entirely new forms of language, followed by a spirited debate over Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey and what great directors get right about storytelling.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Mentioned in the episode</strong></p><p>Stonkbrokers <a href="https://opensea.io/collection/stonkbrokers-434284142">https://opensea.io/collection/stonkbrokers-434284142</a></p><p>Being mean to your agent <a href="https://x.com/mteamisloading/status/2084429800878338111?s=20">https://x.com/mteamisloading/status/2084429800878338111?s=20</a></p><p>Artist chains up robot <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/artificial/comments/1iple9t/an_art_exhibit_in_japan_where_a_chained_robot_dog/">https://www.reddit.com/r/artificial/comments/1iple9t/an_art_exhibit_in_japan_where_a_chained_robot_dog/</a></p><p>Safety fears as scientists make first viruses designed by AI <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/science/2026/aug/06/safety-fears-as-scientists-make-first-viruses-designed-by-ai">https://www.theguardian.com/science/2026/aug/06/safety-fears-as-scientists-make-first-viruses-designed-by-ai</a></p><p>The Endpoint of Longevity Is Woo Woo <a href="https://x.com/pridesai/status/2085138043233505439">https://x.com/pridesai/status/2085138043233505439</a></p><p><br></p><ul><li>(00:00) - Stonkbrokers & Robinhood’s Onchain Push </li> <li>(09:09) - The Enclosure Movement & Digital Property Rights </li> <li>(17:02) - AI Agents, Collusion & Crypto Infrastructure </li> <li>(26:28) - The Machine Economy, AI Risk & Agent Rights </li> <li>(34:15) - AI Models, Speed & Google’s Future </li> <li>(44:29) - AI Viruses, Telepathy & Brain Computing </li> <li>(52:00) - Christopher Nolan, The Odyssey & Modern Storytelling </li> <li>(01:03:22) - Welcome & Disclaimer</li> </ul>

Ep90 If Only, Great Art Beats Drama
<p>The Net Society crew dives into a timeline overtaken by “cabal” discourse, using the drama to examine the state of crypto art and the surprisingly small group still shaping its narratives. They debate whether open blockchain markets reliably surface great work or simply reproduce the gatekeeping, prestige, and conflicts of traditional institutions. From there, the conversation turns to quality, product discipline, and how much grace should be extended to builders experimenting with sharp-edged onchain tools. The crew explores the tension between speculation and utility before unpacking a growing sense of innovation fatigue across crypto and AI. They consider how curation, taste, and better signals might help people navigate an internet flooded with new products and content. The episode wraps with reflections on institutional access and the enduring pleasure of discovering emerging digital art.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Mentioned in the episode</strong></p><p>Beep Everyday CABAL STUFF <a href="https://x.com/beeple/status/2082677058052775985">https://x.com/beeple/status/2082677058052775985</a></p><p>The Cabal and Kanye <a href="https://x.com/schmrypto/status/2082578200413057399?s=20">https://x.com/schmrypto/status/2082578200413057399?s=20</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Show & Hosts</strong></p><p>Net Society: <a href="https://x.com/net__society">https://x.com/net__society</a></p><p>Aaron Wright: <a href="https://x.com/awrigh01">https://x.com/awrigh01</a></p><p>Chris F: <a href="https://x.com/ChrisF_0x">https://x.com/ChrisF_0x</a></p><p>Derek Edwards: <a href="https://x.com/derekedws">https://x.com/derekedws</a></p><p>Priyanka Desai: <a href="https://x.com/pridesai">https://x.com/pridesai</a></p><p>Producer/Editor: <a href="https://x.com/0xFnkl">https://x.com/0xFnkl</a></p><p><br></p><ul><li>(00:00) - Timeline Chaos & the Cabal Debate </li> <li>(07:51) - Meaning, Quality & Crypto Art Gatekeeping </li> <li>(15:32) - Product Standards & Onchain Experimentation </li> <li>(25:20) - Innovation Fatigue, Utility & Participation </li> <li>(31:47) - Curation, Taste & the Attention Economy </li> <li>(37:10) - Democratic Art, Institutional Access & Flamingo </li> <li>(45:59) - Welcome & Disclaimer</li> </ul>
