Ep. 235 – X Marks the Simulation

Tony’s first full day off school? Spent in a music-fueled frenzy until 4AM! Meanwhile, Mike earned a day off and soaked in the Denver Art Museum like a classy gent. 🎨🎧

We talk:

  • Album update: first song done ✅, live shows coming 🎤, and 10 unreleased tracks dropping all summer long ☀️

  • Korean soap operas are WILD right now. Trust us.

  • Pigeon-guided missiles. Yes, that was real. 🐦💣

  • The weird and ancient origins of the symbol “x”

  • Radiation exposure and why you might glow with curiosity

  • Could we ever run out of music? Not if math has anything to say about it 🎶📊

  • Simulation theory: Are we all just Sims with better graphics?

  • Swearing: Every culture does it. Let’s f***ing talk about why.

  • Tony’s debate-watching confession and a Graham Hancock vs. Flint Dibble showdown 🧠💥

  • Elon vs. Trump: Beef of the Billionaires

  • AI musicians… is Tony out of a job soon?

  • That Japanese soldier who never stopped fighting the war. For real.

  • Why maps are lying to us

  • Aerogel. LOOK. IT. UP.

  • And quantum mechanics makes a strong case that… we’re probably in a simulation.

Cheers!
