Chapter 1: What backlash did the host face after the Stranger Things review?
hey guys what's up welcome back to the podcast this is episode 287 Yeah, guys, that's right. I figured out what episode it was before I recorded the episode. It's a first, man.
Chapter 2: What updates does the host share about their personal life?
2026, I'm just moving different, man. I'm knowing the episode numbers.
Chapter 3: Why is Trisha Paytas considering a run for Congress in 2026?
This is unprecedented. Unprecedented. No president. Unprecedented. You've been unprecedented. Should I turn this on? How's that look? Wow, that's really warm.
Chapter 4: What is Grok and how is it impacting social media?
So I'm going to turn that off. Or maybe that looks okay. How's that look? You know what?
Chapter 5: How does the host feel about the state of AI and its implications?
I'm kind of rocking with that. It kind of gives it more yellow, and yellow is the color of the podcast. Also pee.
Chapter 6: What is the significance of the Fushigi server mentioned?
Okay, first off, I do have to address... I have to address some of the backlash I got on last week's episode. I was talking my shit. I got a little heated. I was saying... The final episode of Stranger Things was fine, okay?
Chapter 7: What are the controversies surrounding the Trump Phone?
And that was how I felt. I was making fun of people for, you know, being like, this is... I don't get it, you know? And that's fair, you know? I was... And people had some criticism being like, you know, well, this is what you do for a living, Kurt. All you do is, you know, talk about media and criticize it in a way, which is true. But I did mention that in the podcast, but I guess people...
selective hearing, I guess.
Chapter 8: What are the reactions to the Trump Mobile launch and its features?
But I was just saying, I thought it was fine, and I think most things are fine. And at the end of the day, man, this podcast, it's unscripted, and I just say, and I try to make jokes, and I try to be funny, and sometimes it rarely works. But you know what? Stranger Things... Five, it was fine, and I liked it. And it's done now forever, so we're all good. Show's done forever.
But there has been a few updates. I saw that they put out the documentary about the making of Stranger Things 5. And, yeah, I saw that there was a screenshot going around of one of the Duffer brothers. They were filming them while they were, like, scripting. And I guess they had a chat GPT tab open. Which is pretty crazy. You can look it up, I'm sure. But yeah, that's what I saw.
Yeah, pretty wild. I mean, sure, I'd love to think that it was maybe he was on there. It was just open from the night before where he was like using Chad GPT to make a grocery list or something. But also... Why is anybody using ChatGPT, man? You don't need to. Google. Google's just fine. Google actually does everything, man. I don't... I'm already such a boomer when it comes to that ChatGPT, man.
Back in my day, man, ChatGPT was just what... The GPT back in my day stood for good positive times. That's what back in my day was. Good positive times. So there's a bunch of criticism now after the documentary and stuff. But I stand by what I said, all right? I stand by what I said. I enjoyed the final season. And I'm sorry that you guys didn't. And you know what?
Fucking ignorance is bliss, man. I'm going to start looking up what I'm going to, I have to start looking up, stop. So I have to stop looking up what people think about media after I consume it. Because in my brain, everything I watch, I'm like, wow, 10 out of 10. That was incredible. Everybody worked really hard. Um, But enough about Stranger Things, man. The show's done. It's canceled, bro.
Yeah, man. Since the last episode, what have I been doing? Sitting on my cheeks, dude. Parking it on my fucking butt cheeks. Sitting on me arse, okay? Man, since tour finished, bro, it was just so much, man. Q4 2025 was a lot, okay? There was a lot of shit going on. I had a bunch of videos to do and shows to tape the special.
So, dude, since tour was done, I was like... What the fuck's going on, man? I was like... What the hell? What do I do now? Just sitting on my butt doing nothing, man. It's been kind of crazy. It feels nice. It felt really nice. But, you know, I gotta... It's time to lock the fuck back in, guys. I got to lock in. I got to get back to work, man. I've just been reading, dude.
I've been reading more Brandon Sanderson, dude. I'm such a... Such a fucking dork, man. I'm literally reading Brandon Sanderson and learning more about the Cosmeal. And, yeah, I've been reading the Wax and Wayne series, Mistborn Era 2. It's been a lot of fun. I've been enjoying those. And I've been playing Hades and Hades 2, getting really mad.
