On this episode of Today's Topic, we’re tackling a controversial subject: violence. We ask a series of hard-hitting questions:

• Does our exposure to violent media make it easier to watch?
• Do you struggle with watching violent sports or movies?
• Is there a "level of violent coolness" in what we find entertaining?
• And what about the resurgence of "Gladiator-style" combat in modern media?

Join us as we explore our complicated relationship with on-screen and real-life violence and debate if the thirst for "cool" violence is part of human nature.

We are the Keurig of podcasts. Our words are like little pods of coffee that fill up the landfills of the internet. That is what we do here. The Garbage Patch Kids of podcasts. Shout out to the artist of the Garbage Patch Kids. Please immortal us into Garbage Patch Kids. You are our hero because you get all the details right. Maybe AI products should partner with Fiver where AI provides recommendations rather its AI Slop. That's the AI Hack. Way better than Veo. But what is AI really good for? In this episode of Today's Topic, we're attempting to stay on topic for 15 minutes to discuss the world of AI image generation. We’re exploring the evolution of AI art, the concept of "AI Slop," and whether AI is really just for the "good enough" mindset. Communication issues abound here folks. AI image generation is not perfect but it is WAY better than it was 2 years ago. You all remember that. You all were alive for that right? Maybe there is a baby listening. The new app idea: help us identify all the noises, or maybe just the latern fly. By the way, we are now the East Coast rap gods of podcast. Will that cancel us? Is Kanye ok now? Is bro back on his pills? Could AI show us what Kanye looks like when he is off his pills?

Send us your slop. Now. We need your slop so send the slop to [email protected] of find us on TikTok @todaystopicproductions (we're new, so be our first followers!).

Is there a place in this world for a bald woman? We've got archetypes for bald men—the badass, the brainiac, the guy who just grinded too hard—but the rulebook for women seems to be missing.

This might be the episode that gets us canceled, but we have to ask: Why does female hair loss feel like a catastrophe? Why are wigs cool for women but a cardinal sin for men? And is the comb over the least cool hair style ever invented?

We're pretty sure it's a thousand times harder for a bald woman to exist, and we're ready to fight about it. To every woman navigating hair loss: we're on your side. You belong.

Listen now and then tell us we're wrong.

This week, we're diving headfirst into the gaming debates you've been having in your head. Is the "obvious path to victory" in Civ 7 a sign of limited strategy, or are we just insane? We're calling out the "illusion of critical thinking" and giving a massive shoutout to No Man's Sky for their epic redemption arc. You all kept at it, and we respect that.

Also on the docket:

• Can a video game actually represent real-world events, or is it always an oversimplification?
• Are some games designed to let you win, just to give you that winner's high?
• Did fighting games really kick off the E-Sports phenomenon?
• The ultimate debate: Is GoldenEye still the FPS G.O.A.T.? We're a bunch of nerds, but we'll take that great headshot every time. 😉
• Does couch gaming still have a place in this modern, online world?
• And for the final boss question... which do you prefer as a pastime: edging gardens or playing with yourself online?

It's an episode where we mention a lot, share some hot takes, but it's all just for entertainment.

Tune in now for the full chaotic discussion!

Today's Topic are sleep stories, where we try our best to be your next sleep story. Who listens to brown noise while they sleep? What we know for sure is that you should never trust a person who does sleep stories – or at least, that's what Disney says. You only need three to make a pattern, but are we doing a good job yet? Was Grigori Rasputin a wizard? Does anyone actually use sleep stories to fall asleep? Maybe sleep stories should be used as focused stories – just go to your cave for sleep; you don't sleep in a field (that's where the lions are!). Join us for seven minutes of us keeping it sleepy, like Ron Burgundy. (It was a rough seven minutes.) Maybe we are only good at making Wake Stories. Maybe we can do the Eleven labs thing and make Prince Vegeta Stories, motivating young people to be more in control. Shout out to Eleven Labs and their subscription service – please clone us so we can motivate you while you go pee-pee or poo-poo in the toilet! Listen in as we show our age, figuring out that sleep stories are really just podcasts, or maybe a sleepy podcast. Really, everything is a podcast. Only you can change your beliefs; post it on Facebook. Be cringe. It's the whole point of being digital. We don't know. We are all making it up. Is this the end? Nope just needed to break a potty break.(Pause while one of us talks about how good their poo is. What do you do when you poo? Watch commercials? FailArmy? OzzyManReviews? DailyDoseoftheInternet?) What is even going on here on this episode? Did we help you fall asleep? Keep you focused on your work? Would you watch our YouTube channels? Shoutout to DevLimes. What was our final word anyway? Do you want to be called, 'The Viewer' or 'Friends'?"

Oh the thoughts you like think while you mow the lawn. Is the Epstein list still viable? Is everyone who is anyone on that list? Listen in for this special drop for our hot take. Maybe its a L-take. Did Trump win for reasons mentioned? Is Trump our messiah? Were P. Diddy and Epstein closer friends than we know? Is the assessment on the nose or way off? We'll explore the whispered connections, the silence from certain circles, and the broader implications of these unanswered questions. Did political events align with certain narratives? Why does Hollywood seem so quiet? What is the true scope of connections be, from power players to public figures? Tune in for our discussion where we pull no punches about the wealthy and what we, a couple of dummies, think it must be like to speed through life because speeding tickets are for the poor because in the United States $ is freedom... errrr are there some universally evil activities? Is that our the final word this time?

Beyond the clickbait title, 'The Tesla Porn Bot and the BD Battle Bot', we begin today's topic with the humanoid bot conversation. Why humans? Why not spiders? Will robots ever learn to pass the butter? Will they gain free will? Consciousness? What if they choose an addiction to cobalt? Will bots become cultural influencers just to afford parts? (Wait, bots need oil... oh no!) And how on earth did we end on a TMNT reference as the final word? Expect banter, tongue-tied moments, a Rocky IV shout-out, and maybe a revelation about who wants a spider bot butler. Tune in to ponder when we think robots will 'do the thing' and get it done. We're exploring robo-psychology where all you can be sure of is we'll say stuff about it, plus what ever our pea heads think is relevant.

You can't rake the yard once the sun sets. Do any humans under 30 want to get into agriculture? Do farmers really use agricultural technologies? Does the Pope control the sun? Sometimes today's topic morphs goes from daylight savings to farmers to guns to rural living to meeting the homeless on streets in surburba to grifting callbacks to drumming up cop business to a thought provoking full circle moment at the end. Shout out to the big towns, including Atlanta. We love you! Also shout out to the tiny villages that dot fly over country. You are also and equally amazing. Welcome into our villa of Today's Topic but be sure to read the signs. If you get lost be reach out in the comments or find us at https://todaystopic.productions.

We are talking about Minecraft. Is it the G.O.A.T? Has your grandmother played it yet? Is Steve a better character than Mario?

Are you an Alpha? Who is in your wolf pack? Does this actually exist? Is this label still viable in society today?
