Meta is on the decline. For the first time ever, they’ve shown a decline in active users. They’ve lost ungodly amounts of money on projects that have gone nowhere. They’re burning cash to participate in an AI race that’s also destined for failure. Could their stranglehold on our society finally be loosening? And what happens when they lose their grip entirely? This week, Adam is joined by Julia Angwin, an award-winning investigative journalist, author, and New York Times opinion columnist. Her new book is called On Courage: How to Be a Dissident in an Age of Fear. Find a copy of her book at factuallypod.com/books

Smell that? Is that the stench of the algae bloom in Washington? Or maybe the odor of a big honkin’ AI bubble that is ready to burst? I’ll tell you what doesn’t stink: the huge sweep in Left Wing candidates in Mamdani’s New York. This week, Adam is joined by friends of the show Brennan Lee Mulligan (Dimension 20, Critical Role), and Ed Zitron (Where’s Your Ed At?).
