Robots Suck (But It’s Not Their Fault) (Ep. 288)

We were promised robot butlers and got Roombas that cry under the couch. In this brutally honest (and slightly hilarious) episode, Francesco dives into why the robot revolution fizzled, why your dishwasher still needs you, and how robotics became more YouTube circus than household helper. Spoiler: It's not the tech – it's us.

Your Favorite AI Startup is Probably Bullshit (Ep. 287)

The brutal truth about why Silicon Valley is blowing billions on glorified autocomplete while pretending it's the next iPhone.
We're diving deep into the AI investment circus where VCs who can't code are funding companies that barely understand their own technology. From blockchain déjà vu to the "ChatGPT wrapper" economy—this episode will make you question every AI valuation you've ever seen.
Fair warning: We're naming names and calling out the hype. Don't listen if you work at a "revolutionary AI startup" that's just OpenAI's API with a pretty interface.
