May 11, 2026 Copilot Has Left the Plane
This week’s episode we discuss Sony sells less PS5, Microsoft has more security issues and less Copilot, bad news for HBO Max users on Fire TV, Pornhub allows UK users to return, Google doing some naughty things with AI and Chrome, and Apple oversold iPhone 16 AI claims.

It’s my birthday week this week. If you would like to help me do something to celebrate it, you can help me out. I appreciate you all and enjoy a much better episode.

May 04, 2026 AI Ate My Homework
Happy May the 4th! We are back with our new format and a return to our old number scheme. We have some headlines for you from the past week. Top stories involve Microsoft wanting to win customers back, Sony and the DRM social media clickbait, and MAGA is starting to think Butler was staged.

March 13, 2026 Reboot Trailer
The Lazy Geeks are returning, folks. After figuring out the direction I wanted to take this podcast (as well as the blog), we are going through a reboot of sorts. Our direction is a mission to civilize. Still taking away that clickbait clutter but doing more dives into topics.

Hope you join us for the new mission.

February 02, 2026 The Raw Chicken Edition
We are back with another week of news that didn’t get enough attention. Tweaked the format a bit and included a main topic. This week, we discuss TikTok again, Meta banning users from exposing ICE, Microsoft will sell you out to the feds, and AI will be making government legislation soon.
Our main topic this week is some of the weirdest things that I found on social media. A California food shortage, people eating raw chicken, and something about milk.

January 26, 2026 New Year, What's This?
It’s 2026 and we are back. After a tumultuous 2025, I’m in a better situation that will allow me to come back to the show. I’ll explain more in the episode. In our return episode, we are talking about the finalized deal between the US and TikTok, Microsoft having some issues and Threads is having more users than Twitter.

This show will continue to stay weekly, starting this week. All my other shows will go on being every two weeks. At least in the meantime, and will switch if more interest is shown.

October 22, 2025 A Status of Everything
This short is not just a status of the podcasts, but an update as to what is going on with me personally. My life has been turned upside down and I have to make some serious changes, quickly. I am trying to be as transparent as possible. So, I will tell you what has been going on, what I need to do, and the help you can provide.

Please listen to the full 10-minute episode and decide then. This is a call to action to help a brother out.

August 11, 2025 Hulu Goes Buh-Bye
We are back with some of the under reported news stories from the past week, August 3 through 8. Hulu is going buh-bye (sort of), parts of the US Constitution disappeared, Digital Foundry goes independent, and more password sharing crackdowns. Not only that some sites are phishing for Facebook likes. Who does that?

July 27, 2025 The Marvel Issue
Two things: (one) we are back, and (two) I apologize. The Lazy Geeks are back discussing things that are impacting our lives on a daily basis and I explain more in the episode. The apology is for being a bit long. I decided to go unscripted and this is what I get. I promise, I won’t do that again. But enjoy it, anyway.
