    Crypto Won — So Why Does It Feel Like It Lost?
    Apr 26 2026
    Crypto got everything it asked for: institutional adoption, ETFs, regulation, and mainstream legitimacy. So why does it feel… boring? We debate whether institutions capped crypto’s upside, why retail hasn’t come back, how crypto lost its cultural edge, and whether the industry is quietly becoming financial plumbing rather than a speculative frontier. This episode explores whether crypto’s success created its biggest problem yet.

    The Gamification of Everything
    Apr 19 2026
    From trading and gambling to shopping and fitness, everything in the modern economy is starting to feel like a game. In this episode, we break down how companies are using gamification to shape behaviour, increase engagement, and drive revenue, often without users realising. We explore real-world examples like Temu, trading apps, and fitness platforms, and debate whether this shift is making us better off… or just easier to influence.

  • The New Space Race Isn't What You Think

    The New Space Race Isn't What You Think
    Apr 12 2026
    After 50+ years, humans are back around the Moon, but this isn’t Apollo 2.0. In this episode, we break down Artemis II, NASA’s $90B+ lunar program, and the shift toward private space companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin. We also dive into Boeing’s Starliner failure (and how SpaceX had to step in), and why China’s 2030 Moon ambitions are reigniting a global space race. This isn’t just about exploration anymore — it’s geopolitics, economics, and who gets to build the future of space.
