Truth Gets It’s Pants On – BZEK Livestream

The Bob Rivers Show

Our 3rd Live Podcast recording starts with a topic Zip brought up weeks ago, that’s just now becoming a household name. The FTX Collapse starring Sam Bankman Fried. Who’s to blame?

Is this just like Bernie Madoff, Enron, Theranos, and so many other swindles? Should Sam rot in prison?

Bob asks the group, can you tell the difference between “Truth” and “Opinion”. Turns out we’re mostly good at the latter.

We’re a storytelling species, so everything is a narrative, right? When did narrative become a bad word? Was it when billions of people got their own hand-held global multimedia platforms and the long tail started wagging the dog?

When an AI tool allows you to make cool Avatars of your face, is that cool? What if an AI app can make someone with no talent paint in the style of an established artist? Is that intellectual property theft? Or is it progress?

We close the audio show with a set of Twisted Christmas tunes requested by our livestream audience. “Who Put The Stump“, “Christmas Money“, and “I Am Santa Claus“.
