In this episode, the saviors discuss Tactical Femininity, AI Hallucinations, and most significantly, Podcasts Decide Who Becomes President of America.
AI has bad days. They are called hallucinations. Jared has bad days. They are called Thursday.
In this glorious episode of Saviors of the Metaverse, the boys are back and ready to break down everything to its fundamental truth. Jared introduces a powerful concept—“tactical femininity”—where men can leverage traditionally “feminine” qualities for strategic advantages. But that doesn't explain why Eric's emails are like never-ending cornfields of nonsense. And, of course, a proper takedown of political arrogance, coastal elites, and the magic (or mess) of “dual realities.”

Welcome to another mind-bending episode of "Saviors of the Metaverse," where today, our co-host Jared embarks on a whimsical journey through the realms of skepticism, sensitivity, and storytelling, with his trusty new iPad Pro leading the charge (and occasionally leading him astray).
The Story:
In a world oversaturated with TikTok facts and the constant clamor of opinions—of which, we're told, we should have fewer—Jared finds himself pondering the art of questioning everything without falling into the abyss of cynicism. His quest is simple yet profound: to navigate the tumultuous waters of modern discourse, where everyone seems to be perpetually offended, and to rediscover the joy of writing fiction.
Jared's journey begins with a curious Facebook prompt, igniting a spark of inspiration. He sets out, iPad Pro in hand, to explore the themes that bind our society: from Nikki Haley's latest political maneuvers and the fervor of voting in primaries, to the historical tales of Presidents Grover Cleveland and William McKinley, whose life was cut short by an assassination in Buffalo—home of the Pan American Games and a football team coached by a figure as scrutinized as any politician.
As Jared delves into these narratives, he encounters the paradox of our times: a culture caught between the duels of the past and the victimhood of the present, where conversations falter because no one truly listens. He muses on the evolution of entertainment, noting how actors now covet roles in television (streaming, to be precise), and reflects on the scandals rocking platforms like BetterHelp.org.
But it's not all doom and gloom. Amid the cacophony, Jared finds solace in "The Humans" by Matt Haig and the wisdom of figures like Condoleezza Rice. He considers the expectations placed on us by society, the surprisingly high average age of politicians, and the looming specter of Trump vs. Biden 2026.
Through it all, the iPad Pro proves to be both a catalyst for trouble and a beacon of salvation. It leads Jared into the heart of the debate over whether to dwell in victimhood or embrace the challenges head-on. It challenges him to stay curious amidst the narratives of the past and present, from living in the old days to the speculative futures of presidential elections.
In a climactic twist, Jared's foray into writing fiction on his iPad becomes a metaphor for the episode's core themes: the importance of questioning everything without succumbing to cynicism, the art of navigating a world where offense is all too common, and the transformative power of storytelling.
As the episode concludes, Jared reflects on his journey, realizing that while the world may be fraught with challenges, there is always a path forward for those willing to question, listen, and create. And sometimes, all it takes is a new iPad Pro to set the adventure in motion.
Join us for this episode of "Saviors of the Metaverse," where reality and fiction blur, opinions are plentiful (though we're trying to have fewer), and the quest for understanding is the greatest adventure of all.

Welcome to an epic episode of "Saviors of the Metaverse," where we weave a tale of intrigue, ego, and cosmic conundrums, featuring our brand new beloved fictional character, Joey from Jupiter. Jupiter, Florida, that is. But don't worry; this episode goes to outer space too!
The Story
In the sun-drenched streets of Jupiter, Florida, Joey, an avid podcast enthusiast with dreams bigger than the Sunshine State, stumbles upon a startling revelation. Apple Podcast Analytics, the behemoth of podcast data, has revamped its reporting system. The impact is immediate and dramatic - podcasters worldwide awaken to a new reality where their download numbers no longer match their lofty self-images. Among them are the creators of a podcast, where the co-host Jared has a peculiar disdain for Neil deGrasse Tyson, seeing him as an emblem of overrated celebrity scientists.
As Joey "delves" deeper, he discovers a parallel with the world of narrative wars and non-player characters (NPCs). In this episode, our hosts draw parallels between the podcasting world and the broader societal narratives. They explore how, like in video games, many individuals seem to operate as NPCs, following scripts without questioning the larger story.
Joey, with his innate curiosity, questions everything. Why did Apple change its analytics? How does this mirror the larger world, where narrative wars shape our perceptions? He ponders over the iPad Pro, thinking about the social dilemmas and the Silicon Valley ethos that drive our digital age.
In his quest, Joey encounters various characters: a group of podcasters lamenting the loss of their inflated download numbers, a tech guru from Silicon Valley obsessed with the Metaverse, and even a fictionalized version of Mark Zuckerberg, entangled in his own social dilemmas.
Through Google Maps, Joey explores the vast landscapes of information, each pin drop a story, each route a different narrative. He realizes the impact of these narrative wars, as seen through the lens of COVID and the global response, where every piece of information seemed like a battle for truth.
In a twist, Joey tunes into a podcast featuring a debate between Neil deGrasse Tyson and a character suspiciously resembling Donald Trump, discussing the simulation theory. Here, Jared, the co-host, can barely hide his annoyance, providing a comedic relief to the intense discourse.
As our story concludes, Joey reflects on the journey, sipping Kirkland's Sparkling Water - Lemon Essence, the drink that somehow makes sense of it all. He realizes that in this world of shifting narratives and digital frontiers, the only constant is change, and the only truth is the one we choose to believe.
Join us for this episode of "Saviors of the Metaverse," where reality, fiction, and the cosmic dance of podcast analytics collide in an unforgettable adventure.

Welcome to another electrifying Virtual Hot Topic Friday on "Saviors of the Metaverse"! Today, we're diving headfirst into the whirlwind world of "Doom Spending: The Credit Card Apocalypse!"
Picture this: Vacations galore, the shiniest new TV, endless Amazon packages, and more stuff than you can shake a credit card at! The magic of Apple Pay transforms your sandwich dreams into reality, while Uber whisks you away on seemingly free adventures. And who can forget the thrill of snagging the latest video game without a single dollar leaving your wallet?
But wait... there's a twist! Amidst this spending spree lurks the shadow of economic doom. The "experts" have been counting down for 3 years, predicting a market crash to rival the Great Depression. And their message? "Told ya so!"
So, what's our response? Shop till we drop, of course! From the luxury aisles of Neiman Marcus to the cozy corners of Target, from soaring with American Airlines to chowing down at the local burger joint. Don't forget those all-important subscriptions – what's life without a little retail therapy, right?
But here's the kicker: Could our shopping escapades be the very thing that sends the economy into a tailspin? It's time to pause, breathe (we recommend box breathing!), and put down that credit card. Join us, your trusted Saviors of the Metaverse (and, apparently, the real-world economy), as we unravel the mysteries of what's happening, what isn't, and what may never happen.
And remember, it's Virtual Hot Topic Friday – not "Fry Yah!" Let's say no to more fries and yes to saving the metaverse (and our wallets) one hilarious episode at a time! #DoomSpending #VirtualHotTopicFriday #SaviorsOfTheMetaverse
