What happens when pizza, James Bond, Mikhail Gorbachev,artificial intelligence, Daylight Saving Time, Colorado hippies, and the color purple all collide in the same conversation?

Welcome to another delightfully unhinged episode of What The Frock?

This week, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod explore the fascinating concept known as the “Pizza Effect,” the strange cultural phenomenon where an idea, tradition, or belief leaves its original home, evolves somewhere else,and then returns to become accepted as authentic. It sounds ridiculous until you realize it explains everything from modern pizza to political narratives,social media outrage, and even international tourism.

Along the way, our hosts discuss whether Italy really owns pizza, how a James Bond movie accidentally changed Mexican culture, why people seem willing to change their opinions overnight, and how the debate over Artificial Intelligence has reached even the mountains of Colorado. They also examine the curious relationship between AI technology, public perception, and the growing resistance to data centers across the American West.

As if that were not enough, the conversation wanders into the mysteries of Daylight Saving Time, the science behind whether purple is areal color, and the philosophical question of whether reality itself exists outside our consciousness.

If you enjoy current events commentary, cultural analysis, AI discussions, history podcasts, technology news, and the occasional pizza-fueled existential crisis, this episode is for you.

Grab a slice, pull up a chair, and join Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod for an unforgettable journey through culture, perception, technology, and the wonderfully strange ways human beings convince themselves that things are true.

Welcome to Pizza! Pizza!
