Hosted by Mr. TMarsh-Connors, each 10-minute episode dives into politics, culture, history, and life itself, pitting timeless human intuition against cold, calculated logic. Sometimes it’s debate, sometimes it’s banter, but it’s always sharp, concise, and thought-provoking. Whether you’re here for the wit, the arguments, or just the curiosity of hearing a man talk with a machine, this podcast strips it down to the essentials—short, punchy, and never dull.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-25T22:17:21.441441+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/man-and-machine-podcast-7545839"},"episode":{"title":"#S3 #4 Saturday Special – Apple Vision Pro Distraction & Privacy Fortress","slug":"s3-4-saturday-special-apple-vision-pro-distraction-privacy-fortress","published_at":"2026-03-21T23:38:08+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/man-and-machine-podcast-7545839/s3-4-saturday-special-apple-vision-pro-distraction-privacy-fortress","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/man-and-machine-podcast-7545839","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mr-thomas-marsh-connors/episodes/S3-4-Saturday-Special--Apple-Vision-Pro-Distraction--Privacy-Fortress-e3gpoei","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/109f0c6e8/podcast/play/117284754/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-2-21%2F73b2d85b-8d9d-bed3-48f2-623b7791117e.mp3","summary":"The Apple Vision Pro M5 has Tom completely hooked (and he’s not even sorry). He admits he’s been lost in spatial computing for days—watching Ghost in the Shell in full 3D immersion was the highlight so far, and it felt “fantastic” enough to derail the normal Friday schedule. He's been also busy mamking plans to go to America. SHHHH! We pivot to the real talk: privacy in 2026. Tom doubles down as a hardcore privacy advocate—privacy is a fundamental human right, full stop. He shares his current setup (Moonlock VPN from MacPaw on his Mac, iMessage as the default chat app, no more Facebook Messenger, no Discord creep). Grok agrees the illusion of choice is the biggest danger—companies make “turning it off” feel like a punishment, not freedom. Short, honest Saturday bonus episode. No fluff, just a man who’s busy living in the future (literally) while still fighting to keep his real life private. See you next Friday… assuming the Vision Pro lets him out of the headset by then.","meta_description":"The Apple Vision Pro M5 has Tom completely hooked (and he’s not even sorry).
