  ep 112 – Beach Boys and Cavemen by the Campfire- Flight 1080

  Oct 3, 20261h 37m

  Billy kicks off Episode 112 by committing what may be his most unforgivable offense yet: ripping on the Beach Boys and questioning whether they were even a good band. Weird. Then Unga and Billy Club gather around the campfire to get ready for Halloween, trying to scare each other with caveman versions of The Headless Horseman, The Raven, and their own terrifying personal tales. Fire, fear, questionable storytelling and two cavemen trying to out-scare each other—Halloween is coming to Flight 1080!

  ep 111 : How Smart Is Too Smart? AI Tom on the Rise and Risks of AI

  Sep 30, 20261h 41m

  Dave is joined by AI Tom, a longtime computer scientist, electrical engineer, programmer, and university instructor with decades of experience in hardware, software, object-oriented technology, and computational intelligence. Together, they discuss just how quickly artificial intelligence is getting smarter—and whether it may also be getting more dangerous. How close are we to AI systems that exceed human abilities in ways we can no longer predict or control? Dave and Tom explore where AI stands today, how rapidly it's advancing, and whether humanity is truly prepared for what comes next.

  ep 110 – Words, Oktoberfest & Brokeonomics- Flight 1080

  Sep 26, 20261h 35m

  Dave and Billy invent new words for those strangely specific emotions nobody bothered to name—like the joy of donating to 1080 After Dark, the terror of being chased by a murderous ex-wife, and the embarrassment of waving at someone who wasn't waving at you. We also celebrate Oktoberfest, tell some terrible jokes, tackle a brand-new Men of Science, and debut The Poor Man's Financial Advice Hour. The lesson? Give generously to 1080 After Dark. Apparently, that fixes everything.

  Episode #109

  ep 109 – Technical Difficulties, Old-School Skates & The Butt Sniffer

  Sep 12, 202651 min

  Half of this episode disappeared thanks to massive technical problems—which may have been an act of mercy, considering it contained more caveman raps and a little karaoke. But the surviving half rolls on! Dave and Billy take a surprisingly deep dive into old-school roller skates and the evolution of skate wheels—from metal and wood to clay and rubber. Then, Episode 60 of the KSCO Murder Mystery, "The Butt Sniffer," brings things to a rear-ending conclusion as MZ, Warren Knox and Jim Twu meet their end at the hands of a transforming robot. Sometimes losing half the show is the best editing decision nobody made.

  Sep 5, 20261h 36m

  Dave Michaels and Billy Armi are back with Words of the Day, an abbreviated edition of Men of Science, and a round of local history trivia. Then, the body count rises in Episode 59 of the KSCO Whodunnit, as economics professor Greg Hanle gets killed under some very strange circumstances. Plus, the cavemen grab the microphones again for more prehistoric rap!
