AI is the Concorde of our time (Ep. 309)
AI is technically extraordinary and economically precarious. OpenAI spent $1.35 for every dollar it earned in 2025. Global data center investment now surpasses global oil supply spending.

Your Favorite AI Startup is Probably Bullshit (Ep. 298) [RB]
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. #AIBubble #VentureCapital #TechReality #StartupBullshit

When Data Stops Being Code and Starts Being Conversation (Ep. 297)
Mark Brocato built Mockaroo—the tool that taught millions of developers how to fake data. Now, as Head of Engineering at Tonic.ai, he's building the AI agent that's making his own creation obsolete. In this episode, we explore why static test data can't survive the AI era, what it means to "negotiate" datasets with an agent instead of scripting them, and whether we're heading toward a future where sandbox environments vanish entirely. From the hidden failures of legacy mocks to the security implications of agent-driven synthesis, Mark reveals what happens when data generation becomes a conversation—not a pipeline.
