A short comedy podcast by a tired Greek millennial in Berlin. Shower thoughts, weird internet garbage, science, tech, AI, geopolitics, microplastics, and other 2 a doom scrolling thoughts stuck in my brain. Also jokes, observations, everyday chaos, and the occasional moments of clarity. So basically it's thoughts, stories and news, combined with an "existential dread / old man yells at cloud" energy and a quiet hope for some alien intervention to save us all. Or I'll go and grow tomatoes back in my village. Anyhow, I’m just talking so you’re not alone with your thoughts. So, press play ;)
E98 - Europe Is Boiling, EasyJet's Second-Class Passengers & Oversea Rants ft. DOGE's Worm Comeback
It's the hottest day I've ever lived through in Berlin, the asphalt is melting, my phone is peeling, and yes, I'm recording this with no clothes on. Why does EasyJet make you choose your level of suffering to board a plane? How do you cut a $15M worm program and end up paying a billion? And how exactly do you paint a national monument's pool, drive your car through it, and turn the whole thing green? Vaccines, mosquitoes that now love your repellent, and the unluckiest plane full of parachute instructors. Stay hydrated.

E97 - Vacation Is Dead, AI Is Scared & Facts Are Optional Now
Who does an ultramarathon in the desert and calls it a vacation? Who's building a new free public swimming pool at the center of Berlin? What's the latest in Trump's agenda vs anything that ever made sense in the world, and why Anthropic is calling for a pause in AI development?
These and more. Come we can laugh and cry together.
Follow me on my socials if you can find them.

E96 - Rants, Lakes, AI and Pollen Attacks
I propose modern public holidays, starting with a yearly “check your backups” day (USB sticks, external drives, photo chaos) and I campaign for using exclamation marks again.
Then I rant about workplaces adopting Claude so heavily that company chat starts reading like AI-on-AI communication: people use AI to generate overly long polite messages and recipients use AI to compress them back into one sentence, creating extra cognitive load and raising the question of how harsh we’re training ourselves (and AIs) to be.
I share personal updates on brutal Berlin pollen, the threatened shutdown of multicultural RBB Cosmo (where I also make a Greek show), my coding side projects (a 2D anti-AI platformer, a Google reviews “fair ratings” extension, and an encrypted no-notifications messaging app), surreal Trump/IRS corruption news, and a lake trip where my kid ignores nature for inflatable plastic toys.
