Endgame Podcast

We give our first impressions of the HTC Vive. Is it the next great empathy tool?

And… Do reaction videos on youtube share authentic emotions?

With Jesse, Super8girl, Charlie and Limo.

Jesse, Super8girl, Chaos, and Charlie discuss the growing number of voices on YouTube and are inspired by Kang Lee’s TED talk to dream of a transparent future.

This week, we ponder the future of pretentious yearbook quotes, react to David Brin’s TED talk and struggle with derivative art.

Nina Simone sings the theme. Jesse’s faith in technology is challenged. Super8girl takes the Turing test. Charlie considers humanism. We get too political. Chaos feels doom. We attempt to end on a positive note…

Super8girl, Jesse, Charlie and Flo ask, “Are we our own Big Brother?”

Can we use Snapchat and Instagram to effectively police ourselves? What happens when the NSA creates an effective algorithm? Can we find Becky with the good hair? Is DJ Khaled dumb?

Will we answer any questions?

Rufus, HumanAndroid, Super8girl, Jesse and Chaos talk A.I. gender issues. We also introduce Ximm, the show’s artificial intelligence.

Tonic joins Charlie, Jesse and Chaos to discuss whether social media will rip society apart and the power of YouTube framing culture. They also take the Turing test.

Super8girl, Chaos, Charlie and Jesse discuss the games we play and why we play them.

The Enders read comments, talk VR and analyze The Witch.

Jesse, Super8girl, Chaos, Orlock and “Justin Keller” never get on track in this episode. Instead, we meander around the basic idea of the Endgame.
