  Canada Embarrasses Trump Again, Flock Cameras and the Dangers of AI, Trump’s War on the Free Press, the Midterm Blue Wave and Furries Flying Our Planes

  Sep 25, 20261h 8mS7

  On this episode of The Vocal Minority with Nick and Steve... The guys open the show with the story of a Michigan credit union CEO who was fired after using AI to alter a family photo during a trip to Canada, adding embarrassing Lake America sweatshirts and posting the image on social media with a message aimed at Canadians. Then the guys jump into the story of an American passenger who reportedly requested asylum while flying from Arizona to Canada, before turning to the growing danger of Flock cameras. A woman spent 13 days in jail after a Flock camera incorrectly identified her Dodge Durango as the vehicle involved in a deadly crash, despite her being nowhere near the scene. The guys talk about how quickly AI and surveillance technology are advancing and what happens when these systems get something very wrong. From there, the guys get into Trump’s ongoing fight with the press and his efforts to restrict White House press access, including the latest developments after a judge ordered press passes to be reinstated. The guys then talk about Donald Trump meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the White House, including Trump’s reaction to military jets flying overhead, the fake photo posted by the White House to make Trump look "stronger" and Trump showing Xi Jinping the autopen picture hanging in the White House. WTF? Then it is time for George Santos and his new reality show, which the guys discuss as the absolute nightmare and how on brand it is for Trumps supporters. The guys also get into the importance of the upcoming midterm elections and the growing push for a blue wave, before turning to Senator Tommy Tuberville’s bizarre comments about airline pilots being furries. Finally, they discuss Trump’s FDA nominee being asked a remarkably simple question by a Democratic senator: Can the president ever be wrong? Despite being given multiple opportunities to answer, she refused to say yes. Canada embarrassing Trump again, AI and surveillance gone wrong, the fight over the free press, Trump and Xi Jinping, George Santos, the midterm blue wave, and furries flying our planes. All of this and so much more on this episode of "The Vocal Minority with Nick and Steve."

  Episode #335

  9/11 Then and Now, Trumpapalooza, Sam Hodgson’s New Song and the Dangers of AI

  Sep 11, 20261h 7mS7

  On this episode of The Vocal Minority with Nick and Steve... The guys start with a look back at 9/11, comparing the way that tragic day was remembered then with the way it was commemorated 25 years later. They talk about the ceremonies at Ground Zero, Donald Trump’s appearance at the Pentagon and the reported moment when Trump appeared to fall asleep while the names of the 9/11 victims were being read. From there, the guys look at the legacy of the enormous national security and counterterrorism apparatus created after 9/11 and how pieces of that machinery have increasingly been turned toward what the government describes as domestic threats, including immigration enforcement, ICE and other political and law enforcement efforts that use the language of “terrorism” and national security. From there the guys jump into Trumpapalooza, the Republican convention taking place in Texas, including Trump’s promise to give every adult $5,000 if Republicans win the midterms, his comments about James Talarico and his bizarre discussion about Talarico’s love of meat. And the moment when Trump had the audience pledge that they would get out and vote, even if they were not registered. Next up, the guys play a brand new song from Sam Hodgson, the master of political folk music whose previous song The Coup took aim at the threat of a political takeover. His newest song looks at the similarities between North Korea and America and gives the guys plenty to talk about. Finally, the guys get into the latest concerns surrounding artificial intelligence and whether the technology is moving far faster than society can safely handle. They discuss 27 year old AI researcher Jacob Cocksin, who recently left Anthropic, and the warnings coming from people who have been on the inside of the AI industry. All of this and so much more on this episode of The Vocal Minority with Nick and Steve.

Vance vs. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed clash in Michigan, and the story of paid influencers being taken to Poland to promote “white pride.” They also play a clip of Dr. Oz talking about making Americans healthier so they can work longer, supposedly helping reduce the national deficit, and ask the question, Is the goal actually to make Americans’ lives better, or simply to make them more economically useful?
