In an effort to streamline the uploading process, we tried to let AI summarize the episode for us.  AI, however, is stupid, and in attempting to encapsulate our show, it hears what it wants to hear and frames it in a saccharine, markety way that's pretty gross. Our show is about The Bear and how it relates to the world at large.  Before The Bear, we covered Ted Lasso on Apple TV+ and Wayne on YouTube.  Below is what AI came up with, which is idiotic.  Don't let the terrible summary deter you!  Jump in the pool with us!
