Interscription

Soaring through the AI-generated minds at Google, we spend our time parsing this week’s I/O conference, dreaming of a world where devices are flexible and priced fairly.  A quick stop in handheld PC gaming is also on our docket this week, discussing the Asus ROG Ally announcement, the future of Windows handhelds, and Rich Tripping the Tokyo Fantastic.

It’s been a pretty terrifically tough week for Microsoft with the one-two punch of the UK’s CMA ruling, and a less-than-charitable reception for Redfall in the press.  Fear not, though, as Phil Spencer takes to the virtual airwaves with pragmatism and humility, while giving us a strong foundation to discuss Microsoft’s current position in the gaming universe this week.

Nuns with complicated relationship dynamics?  A Steam Deck with an extra helping of Win and juice?  Legal kung-fu?  Allow us to be your age-appropriate elected officials as we navigate the labyrinthine world of tech rumors, tech competition, and a small thing called The Presidency.

Cath Crowley said, “If you don’t want a generation of robots, fund the arts!”  Rich and I are here to answer all of the world’s questions when robots are the ones making art, and what might be left for us poor meatbags and our dwindling supply of horses.  Speaking of Beef, we speak further on the completed season, and take a moment to praise Barry, the best television ever, according to your favorite two robots.

Back at this for our Season 2 Premiere episode, Rich and I find out that Internet is a utility, Star Trek CAN be great again, and Donald Glover is generally never wrong.  I take fleeting moment to praise a small slice of Succession, we replace Extrapolation on our watchlist, and we even take the time to be grumpy old men about advertising on paid services.

To the surprise and delight of all (or at least, your humble podcast hosts), we have arrived at a full year of weekly podcasts!  Rich and
I reflect on the journey thus far, and the road not yet traveled.  We also chat on a couple of Oscar contenders, a masterful McEvoy performance, and sex-crazed Russian refrigerators.

This week’s podcast was truly a miraculous deliverance, intentioned with ideas and musings on the content we love and love to share. Come with us on our detour towards how vile copyright can be to the consumption and preservation of art, and my subsequent incongruent by-the-numbers assessment of The Last of Us against its groundswell of support by the Playstation faithful. Perhaps Tom Petty said it best when he shared, “As we celebrate mediocrity, all the boys upstairs want to see. How much you’ll pay for what you used to get for free.”
