Howdy! It's 2025 and the duo is happy to be back. In this hot topics episode, Blake and Chase explain the misguided stigma around the new DeepSeek AI model...which comes from a small startup in China for free. Please, the whole Threat To National Security shtick is getting old. Next, the two weigh in on the sustainability of video games by examining GTA VI--one of the most expensive games ever produced. Are we ready for a world where not owning your purchases is the norm? Will these bigger games pay themselves off in longevity (and file size) fifteen years down the line? Honestly? Our heroes are content with a round of Mario Kart Wii any day.Finally, it’s Black History Month! (A time for reflection that, under completely non-suspicious circumstances, just so happens to fall in the shortest month of the year.) This time, the brothers focus on Lonnie Johnson—the inventor of the Super Soaker, the Nerf Gun, and potentially a groundbreaking solution to the energy crisis. Trust us, he’s up to some seriously incredible things. //SHOW NOTES//1: DEEPEEKKelly Ng, B. D. (2025).What is DeepSeek - and why is everyone talking about it? - BBC NewsMsv, J.
