The show that straps itself to a rocket like Wiley Coyote and lights the fuse every Thursday night, ready to blast off into the media sphere with news, pop culture, music, movies, deep state politics, false flag research, pulling the threads on phony stories and propaganda where we find them. Science, tech, philosophy, social engineering, the degeneracy of the progressives, the falsity of the right left paradigm… you name it we’ve probably threw up on it during one of our parties.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-13T08:26:19.675517+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/boiler-room-594876"},"episode":{"title":"Terms & Conditions Apply: Surveillance, Algorithms & the Machinery of Control","slug":"terms-conditions-apply-surveillance-algorithms-the-machinery-of-control","published_at":"2026-08-15T04:27:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/boiler-room-594876/terms-conditions-apply-surveillance-algorithms-the-machinery-of-control","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/boiler-room-594876","url":"https://alternatecurrentradio.com/terms-conditions-apply-surveillance-algorithms-the-machinery-of-control/","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/74071153/20260814_br_termsandconditions_pod.mp3","summary":"Boiler Room: Terms & Conditions Apply This week on Boiler Room, Hesher is joined by Ruckus and Mystical Pharaoh to dig through the fine print of an increasingly automated and surveilled world. The crew examines Luigi Mangione’s federal guilty plea, electric-shock gloves and law-enforcement technology, the White House ballroom legal fight, reports of deteriorating morale aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, Walmart’s digital price tags and fears over surveillance pricing, growing resistance to massive AI data centers, federal monitoring of political groups and protesters, and government efforts to uncover journalists’ confidential sources. Later, the conversation turns to fires, earthquakes and the conspiracy theories forming around them, Hunter Biden’s surprising podcast-media rehabilitation tour and Tucker Carlson interview, and reported cyberattacks targeting water systems across multiple states. From the supermarket shelf to artificial intelligence, domestic surveillance, military power and critical infrastructure, more decisions are being handed to systems ordinary people cannot see, inspect or challenge.
