In this episode, Ric talks of the impending situation regarding artificial intelligence. Should you worry? Judging by what is being rolled out, probably not.

You might want to re-think the whole traditional Thanksgiving feast. The price of butter alone should make you think twice. If you want to have some real fun, search Butterball Turkey in Amazon. Something certainly seems off this year and it would appear that all of this talk of Avian Flu may just be an excuse to raise the price on the star of your dinner table.

Also, even away from the corporate game, we are all still players in this messed up world.NEXT WEEK: Your Turkey Sucks Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Inflation by it's natural definition is an inflated price of things. These days, there is a bit more to the concept. Sure, things have gone up in price for a number of reasons. Could be shipping, supply issues and the like. But, let's call our current situation what it really is. Corporate greed.NEXT WEEK: The Never Ending Streaming Wars Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Journalistic integrity is a lost art. We are all so attuned to bad reporting that some of us wouldn't know good reporting if they actually saw it. What's more is that bad reporting and writing is destroying local newspapers and has made local television news unwatchable. In this episode, Ric delves into this sometimes controversial topic and does his best in explaining what we are all seeing.NEXT WEEK: Call it what it is, Corporate Greed Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

It would appear that all things are not well in the Metaverse. For the uninitiated, you are apparently not missing anything. Now with talk there are very few people who are using the platform and more people have shown extraordinary apathy to the thing, Zuckerberg seems to have chosen the hill on which to die upon. Add to the mix that Facebook (Meta) stocks are dropping and the company is losing a lot of cash, one has to wonder if this is truly the end for the once giant monster in the room.NEXT WEEK: Journalistic Integrity... or the lack thereof.

After a 9 week summer hiatus, Ric is back in Radioland with a new episode and regular production schedule. In this episode, Ric not only explains the break but takes this time to take on the phenomenon of the rise of various hate groups in America. It hit home recently when the Proud Boys showed up to protest their perceived menace that was a small group of drag queens. As absurd as that sounds, their perceptions of whatever social dangers they think they see are nothing more than a display of their own fear. NEXT WEEK: Zuckerberg has issues.

Perhaps an interesting test of the power of an unfiltered internet comes in the everyday coverage of a war. That is precisely what is happening now. Among the cat videos, self-affirmation memes, and random political falsehoods one can find fascinating threads of the war in Ukraine being posted by those actually participating in the thing. The important thing for anyone to remember is the fact that most large events portrayed among the feeds of any social media may either be too much information or merely a reflection of the facts at hand. Ric's advice to anyone cruising this form of coverage should beware, it's like trying to drink out of a fire hydrant.NEXT WEEK: The World is Always Going to Hell.

In a sort of continued thought from last week, Ric talks about the notion that forward progress can be a good thing. However, for that to work, people should lose the things we no longer need. Nostalgia is fun to think about, but sometimes things last only for so long. Drawing from the example Netflix is setting up, some decisions are easier to make than others. If there is one takeaway from all of this, don't let others tell you what you like.NEXT WEEK: War, Social Media Style Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Part of an advancement of society means some sort of progress, ideally. Never ending references to the way things used to be have become tiring to many people. Now, we must look to the way things are going to be. In that the world is approaching a post-pandemic situation, the old thing of "the new norm" is now. Most of the world has changed. Some changes are not so great while others are pretty good. Here, Ric takes a look at how the inherent resistance to change tends to slow things down. We aren't going back, and that is not a bad thing.NEXT WEEK: Not all things are worth keeping. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
