Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Adam Singer — a 20-year advertising and marketing veteran — to talk about why everyone is quietly developing “AI psychosis” and doesn’t realize it. They get into how Silicon Valley fundamentally misunderstands normal people, why agentic AI will never take over shopping  and how boomers have zero immunity to AI slop. They also cover Sydney Sweeney as a marketing genius, Shane Gillis “big wave surfing” the algorithm, why the left has no limiting principle, cancel culture and PR, raising a kid screen-free, self-driving cars, and why you can talk trash about Florida but never California.

#AI #SiliconValley #WalkInsWelcome

Topics covered: AI psychosis, agentic AI and online shopping, Silicon Valley tech culture, Sydney Sweeney marketing, Shane Gillis, cancel culture and PR, Jordan Peterson, screen-free parenting, self-driving cars, the end of woke

Bridget Phetasy sits down with French commentator and content creator Éros Brousson — a 26-year-old watching his country burn from across the border in Italy — for an unsparing insider’s take on the France riots and the decline of Europe. Éros makes the case that France is a failed society, that Europeans have no standing to lecture Americans who can see exactly what’s happening on video, and that a feckless, frightened government has refused to enforce law and order for 20 years. They get into the left-wing roots of the protests, mass immigration and the elephant in the room nobody’s allowed to name, why France “lost its balls,” the Algerian mafia spreading through Marseille, and Macron blaming the videos on AI while his country is on fire. They also cover  selling real estate to billionaires in Dubai, the Gen Z grievance debate, why Éros desperate to get back to Texas, and Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s warning that the West’s tolerance is being used against it.

Bridget sits down with screenwriter and showrunner Daniel Knauf — the creator of HBO’s cult classic Carnivàle — for a wide-ranging conversation about morality, art, and the strange culture we’re all living in now. Daniel makes the case that we’ve stopped talking about good and evil, or even right and wrong, and replaced it all with winning and losing — and why his new adaptation of Dante’s Inferno is an attempt to ask what happens if there’s actually a reckoning for the lives we lead. They cover his improbable path into Hollywood (he broke in at 45 as an insurance broker who’d been writing in obscurity for 15 years), why making it young would have destroyed them both, why AI will never be a real artist, how celebrity died during COVID, why identity politics diminishes people, and the lost art of trusting your audience.

Topics covered: breaking into Hollywood late, the death of good and evil in the culture, adapting Dante’s Inferno, why AI can’t make art, the death of celebrity after COVID, writing advice and craft, gatekeepers and the internet, fatherhood, identity politics, Carnivàle and HBO

Writer Sarah Hepola returns to the podcast to talk about her long-awaited new book, The Only Thing There Is To Want, and the hard truths at the heart of it: what it actually feels like to want the traditional life, the marriage and the kids, and to wonder if you waited too long. Sarah spent eight years writing a memoir about three loves — the man she thought she’d marry, the married man she couldn’t let go of, and the man 14 years younger she fell for at 44. She and Bridget discuss and what they taught her about dating in your 40s, the window to have children, and the grief nobody prepares single women for. They cover the shadow side of the feminist and sexual revolutions, regret and abortion, getting sober, and how our hyper-personalized, siloed culture has everyone taking everything personally. Plus: lunch in the Ozempic era, being the “other woman,” and why they'll both go down fighting for the culture.

Bridget checks in with Maggie right after finishing the first draft of her book, The Left Can’t Meme: How Comedy Wins Culture Wars. She walks through the brutal, years-long process of selling and writing it — the endless proposal feedback loops, the mental block of trying to write about the culture while the culture is still unfolding, and surrendering to the lack of control you have about what’s going on in the world during the process. They discuss the question she set out to answer: how did the left lose the culture when they owned Hollywood, publishing, media, and big tech? She also gets into why revisiting the last decade left her angrier and more radicalized than when she started, battling resistance and self-doubt, reliving just how dark the Biden years and COVID really were, how Elon buying Twitter liberated the discourse, and why the book is dedicated to the shitposting anons.

#TheLeftCantMeme #WritingABook #walkinswelcome 

Topics covered: writing a book about the culture war, how the left lost the culture, using AI as a research tool, The War of Art and creative resistance, COVID lockdowns and the Biden years, Elon buying Twitter and free speech, memes and 4chan, the book writing process

Original Air Date - October 10, 2024
Author Brendan O’Neill joins Bridget to talk about his book, After The Pogrom: 7 October, Israel and The Crisis of Civilization. They discuss the aftermath of Hamas's attack on October 7th, 2023, what it told us about the West, the lure of barbarism, the rise of antisemitism, why we shouldn’t be allowed to forget what happened on October 7th, and why his book should make you angry because it highlights the appalling truth that people in the West are cheering one of the most regressive and racist movements on Earth - Hamas. They cover the ideological indoctrination of our youth, the resurgence of ancient antisemitic tropes, the failures of modern feminism, the West's inability to confront global threats, moral cowardice, the madness of the elites, racism masquerading as anti-racism, and the importance of mockery in challenging dominant ideologies.

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Peachy Keenan — author of Domestic Extremist and her new book Supervillains: Architects of America's Decline — for a wide-ranging conversation about who's actually driving the country's decline and why the people trying to stay normal are the real heroes. Peachy makes the case that the most damaging villains aren't the famous ones but the "female liberation theologists" peddling what she calls divorce porn — the Eat Pray Love, Glennon Doyle genre that tells women their boring husband and their kids are the thing holding them back. They get into why the grass is almost never greener, why the fight now feels like sane vs. crazy instead of left vs. right, and why Gen X women turned out so based (a theory involving both childhood neglect and the zero-fucks power of menopause). Plus: the manosphere and looksmaxxing takeover of teenage boys, why teenage girls have checked out of politics entirely, the Sydney Sweeney hypocrisy, H-1B visas and the hollowing out of the middle class, California's ongoing collapse, and how to raise resilient kids in a world you can't predict.

Dave Landau returns to the podcast to talk about his new comedy special, breaking down the nuts and bolts of what actually goes into making a stand-up special, how he assembles a set from road-tested bits, how many shows you actually tape, the art of crowd work - engaging with the audience but not losing control of the room - and why some venues now expect it when they used to frown on it. He and Bridget discuss why comedy is more popular now than ever, how podcasting changed the comedy world, and why the best material comes from your real life. Then they go broad, talking about the 25th 9/11 anniversary, the loss of innocence that turned America from a high-trust to a low-trust society, what really going on in Michigan, and a shared frustration with the podcasters peddling nihilism and hopelessness to their audiences while they fly around on private jets, and what a better message would be.

Bridget sits down with Mike Solana — founder of Pirate Wires — who returns to the podcast to talk about why it's nearly impossible to figure out what's actually real anymore. They get into how everyone's algorithm has quietly split us into separate internets, where one person's feed is wall-to-wall Imam videos and another has never seen a single one, the art of hosting a podcast, and why comedians are just weather vanes for the mood of the masses. They also cover the rising glee around political violence on both sides, the collapse of a shared American identity into thousands of micro-tribes, the real reasons people hate data centers, whether we're sliding into a post-literate society, wondering if the solution is just shutting the whole internet down and reopening the malls.

#PirateWires #MediaCriticism #WalkInsWelcome

Topics covered: algorithm silos and different internets, reading the culture in a fragmented media landscape, comedians as weather vanes, celebrating political violence, collapse of shared identity, data centers and NIMBY backlash, Trump deplatforming and censorship, post-literate society, hang podcasts vs. interview shows, relaunching Pirate Wires

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Max Marion - founder of one of the highest-potency Omega-3 companies in the world, AquaOmega — for a deep dive into why Omega-3s might be the single most important supplement almost nobody is taking correctly. Max explains why less than 2% of North Americans get enough Omega-3s, how our seed-oil-soaked diets flooded us with inflammation, and why most fish oil on the shelf is cheaply made, oxidized, and processed with industrial solvents — including a live Styrofoam cup test that shows exactly what those solvents do. They get into the difference between EPA and DHA, why you can't get enough nutrients from food anymore, Omega-3s and pregnancy, anxiety, sleep and brain health, and how Max sourced supplement production after touring the disturbing underbelly of the industry. Plus: his ocean plastic passion project pulling a pound of debris for every bottle sold, microplastics in our water and food, and how to actually navigate the wellness industry without getting scammed.

AquaOmega: One of the highest-dose omega-3 supplements per serving, no fish burps, and for every bottle sold, removes 1 lb. of plastic and debris from the ocean and coastlines. Use code BRIDGET for 20% off at https://myaquaomega.com/BRIDGET
