Season 2 Episode 1 - AI Am Working Here - As Per my Last Podcast

Episode summary:

• 🎙️ Eric kicks things off by channeling his inner Seinfeld and pointing out that despite Zoom saying "recording in progress" it is in fact only starting when she says that. Just saying.

• ⏰ We determine the true definition of wealth: never setting an alarm, not yachts, Lambos, or whatever billionaires pretend matters.

• 😬 The Sunday Scaries have metastasized into an always-on dread cycle, powered by Teams, Slack, email, and the knowledge that weekends are fake.

• 🏭 We long for extinct jobs where you clock out, go home, and don’t think about work—like a dinosaur, but happier.

• 🤖 Automation is replacing everyone except the least competent people in leadership, who somehow remain fully immune.

• ❄️ Living on the rain/snow border means weather forecasts are vibes, plow trucks are optional, and black ice is a personal enemy.

• 💰 We deep-dive Powerball math and conclude that a million dollars is absolutely life-changing, despite what delusional rich people claim.

• 🧾 If we won the lottery, we’d still go to work—just to force the company to fire us and then collect unemployment out of pure principle.

• 👔 Career advice from the McDonald’s CEO confirms what you already know: nobody cares about your career, and you are 100% a replaceable tool.

• 🎸 AI can now write, code, animate, and make music—ushering in a bold new era where speed beats quality and everyone confidently ships garbage.

As Per My Last Podcast - Season 1 Episode 23 - Real AI for my Sham Friends and Champagne for my Reel Friends

In this episode:

• The rich, the powerful, and criminals aren’t separate groups — they’re just LinkedIn connections away.

• The world’s greatest art thief got immunity because he stole too much art, proving “too big to jail” is a real career path.

• Art is basically money laundering with vibes: “Why is this worth $3 million?” “Because I like it.”

• NFTs were just modern art scams with worse visuals and Jake Paul instead of a monocle-wearing dealer.

• A mob hitman tried to destroy evidence, lit himself on fire twice, and was foiled by… an electric grill.

• Corporate America’s favorite power move: letting you leave early like it’s a Christmas miracle you earned.

• Working in an office before holidays felt like prison, except with Excel instead of yard time.

• Blackout Wednesday died because alcohol is expensive, Uber is expensive, and staying home with AI is free and validating.

• AI laughs at all your jokes, which explains why humans are suddenly intolerable.

• We’ve achieved peak convenience, peak isolation, and somehow more kidney failure — progress!

As Per My Last Podcast Season 1 Episode 22 - Pro Athletes and Con Men -

In this episode:

• Keyboard shortcuts: where grown adults forget how letters work and accidentally print 15 copies of their own incompetence.

• Screenshots: the corporate version of “I’m not stealing… I’m archiving.”

• File names: because nothing says “organizational system” like saving a budget meeting screenshot as B1_Final_FINAL_wtf.png.

• Excel VLOOKUP: the skill you relearn every six months like it’s the plot of Memento.

• VR safety training: now with 100% more simulated workplace death to really motivate you.

• Drunk goggles: teaching college kids what it’s like to be drunk if drunk meant blindfolded, dizzy, and legally unfit to pour water into a cup ten feet away.

• Drunken jam sessions: moments where you’re convinced you’re inventing the next Beatles track… until sober-you hears the recording.

• Kids and music: where “classic rock” gets reviewed by 10-year-olds as “mid” and every rapper is named “Lil Something.”

• Kanye samples: that confusing moment when you think the grocery store is playing Kanye, but no — it’s just Al Green being sampled for the 47th time.

• Musical talent: the Nashville Rule — the person playing to eight people in a bar is still better at music than anyone you know, including you and your entire gene pool.
