Episode Details

Welcome to a chilling audit of technological hubris, where hosts Katie and Marcus dissect the "Newtonian Force of Ego" – the staggering capital deployed to mechanize processes already perfected by human hands. What happens when a $400 juice press becomes a brick because a server died? Marcus, battling a seized neck from doomscrolling 'e-waste hacking' TikToks, sees Juicero as the "Everest of industrial-scale idiocy." Katie, ever clinical, defines NFE as the "precise mathematical measurement of capital deployed to mechanize a biological process that already functions efficiently." Join them as they unearth the absurd waste behind the shiny veneer of "innovation."
