HAPPY NEW YEAR WEEK LINK podcast listeners! We hope that you had a wonderful start to 2026 and we'll help by kick-starting our weekly insane asylum talks with Keren , Brian and Mikhail . For the first episode of 2026 the boys lament having to begin the year terribly, go through the winners of the Golden Globes and can't help but wonder why AI is so bad for humanity right now.
