Badlands Media - The Shipwreck Show Ep. 50: The AI World Is Already Here | Artemis, NASA Questions, Dead Internet, and the AI Store

Episode Date: April 16, 2026

Tonight on The Shipwreck Show, we’re stepping into a world that suddenly feels very different… and maybe a little unsettling. We’re diving into the Artemis mission and the growing questions surrounding NASA — what we’re being told, what we’re not, and why more people are starting to look closer. Then we’ll talk about the "Dead Internet" theory, sparked by Nikita on X, and the possibility that much of what we see online isn’t as human as we think anymore. And if that’s not enough… a store in San Francisco that is 100% built and run by AI. No traditional staff. No traditional management. Just algorithms running a business in the real world. The future isn’t coming. It’s already here. Tonight we ask the question: Are we watching progress… or something else entirely?

Good afternoon. My mic was mute. I had some technical difficulties when I was on here. Let me just check this. It says it's on. The little lights flashing. Do I sound okay? Well, if I don't, I don't know.

What to tell you? Everybody's mad already again this week. Hello. Hello. Embrace the friction. Yeah. Welcome to the show. Y'all are already arguing about Trump Jesus in the comments.

I get it. Listen. I'm going to tell you a quick story here, like a quick story, that I didn't say in my video. But like when I first saw it, I was kind of like, ooh. It's kind of like there's a song, and I really like the song. It's the angels up in the clouds are jealous. No, when we found something so wild of the ordinary. That song, I really like that song.

But when he's like, angels up in the clouds are jealous. I'm like, angels don't get jealous. Like, I immediately was like, ooh, I don't think I like this. You know what I mean? I don't know if that's like the Catholic indoctrination that's probably still alive and well in me or if that's like a legit

feeling that I should pay attention to. So either way, either way, I don't really listen to it anymore. So I got that same feeling when I saw the picture. I was like, ooh, before I made the video, before I really made a decision, I was like, mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

Well, that's not going to go over with me. And it didn't. And there was a lot of people that it didn't go over with, including a lot of prominent people who do nothing but Jesus talk on the internet. So I feel like I was on the right side with that. I'm sorry. I know a lot of you were like, he was just trolling him. Yeah, we don't use Jesus to troll people.

It was too close. It was too much. That was too far. And then he posted another one of Jesus hugging him and talking about the, don't know, the Trump card and the deep state or the pedophiles and he's like, maybe we're playing the Trump card. And that's for the Q people

to try and win them back over. Because I think a lot of them were pretty pissed, too. But it's like exposure doesn't mean anything without accountability. Without accountability, it's just trolling. Exposure without accountability is just trolling. That's all it is.

But it's like the angels up in the clouds though. Do you know what? Like, I listen to classical music. Do you? I listen to I do too, actually. I turn our TV on in the living room when I'm doing all my housework stuff. Because in my off time, I do housework.

And it plays like a spring background because it's spring now. I don't need the fire anymore. It's the spring background now. And it plays classical music. And a lot of it's like hymns, which I found out what's kind of interesting. So there, there, there, there, there. There, there, there. Babbas, please like the live. Thank you. Everybody. Everybody crossed the board. We're on a, what is this? Twitch? Welcome Twitch. It's good to see you. I used to be on Twitch for a little bit. And then they took two of my videos down. So we'll see how it goes over there. Maybe it got better. That was a long time ago. That was a long time ago. He was known for his trolling. I get that, but you don't use Jesus to troll. That's not okay. I mean, if you don't want religion and politics, like if you don't feel like the Pope should be speaking out on politics, then let's let's let's let's uh let's let's uh let's practice that a little bit because there's a lot of

trump as jesus people out there there is i had one of my comments he's like well are you going to apologize if he really is jesus no i don't think i will i don't feel like jesus would deceive me like that and i haven't seen signs and wonders or heard of signs and wonders i've heard of wars and I've heard of the birth pains in my gas pink and that's not, I'm not going to hate I'm going to spend the whole lot of hating on this whole thing. I said what I needed to say in the video.

I'm going to err on the side of caution with that because like I said, being a good Republican isn't going to save my soul. It's just not. So we got a pretty decent show. I want to talk about the moon. Oh, Swalwell? Yeah. You know what's fucking wild about that?

Let's touch on Swalwell for a minute. I'm going to get to the moon, I promise. let's touch on swallow though so here's the thing it took this to get him out of Congress not sleeping with a Chinese spy and giving her all of America's secrets that wasn't enough

not to say that what he did now isn't bad or what he's being accused of it's bad but I feel like treason probably could have been just as bad but it took that it took that that's weird

do you know what I mean somebody else is like hey just so you know Congress full of fucking swallows. They're all swallow. They've all got shit. It's just not coming out because they're towing the line. I was like, bro. What do you even do with that? What do you even do with that? Matt Gates is like, look, we're breeding aliens with humans.

They're out there. They're sitting on Capitol Hill. Like, what do you even do with that? You turn back to Jesus because that's it. That's the only path we got left. That's it. I've watched enough, like, of the near-death experiences, of people's stories with near-death experience to believe in Jesus.

this whole heart. I mean, I believed before, but to hear people's depiction, and it was all kind of like the same. Yeah, I'm going to, I'm going to roll with blasphemous and just, because I'd rather, I'd rather God be like, you know what, it wasn't that serious ship, uh, then for him to be like, so why didn't you speak up and speak out? Why, why were you going to let this go? Why were you okay with this? I'd be like, oh my God, I don't know. My bad. My bad. DC is a criminal enterprise. It is. So was NASA. I got videos on NASA. So I didn't talk. about the moon thing initially because I knew other people would pick it up. I knew it was going to be just fake as fuck. And I felt like it was like um what do you call those and they just

kind of throw you so they're just like here go nuts what's going on in my TV back here. I don't even know I'll change that. I felt like it was just kind of one of those weird things where they were just giving it to us to talk let us talk about something because I was pretty sure it wasn't real. what's Microsoft Let's do Serenity vibes There we go That was Microsoft There's I have a Microsoft computer

There is no software in the world That updates more often The Microsoft computers This fucker updates like three times a day And I don't even know what it does Probably tracks me Probably sends all my emails to Israel So they can email me and ask me to be on their campaigns

What are you doing? You really want me to come on and make a video for you? I don't think you want that $3,500, hard to turn down though I'm not even going to fucking lie. That was a lot of money. If you're out in the dark, Israel's ambulance,

like their Red Cross, Elizabeth's Red Cross sent me an email. And they're like, hey, can you promote us so more people will donate to us? And I was like, the fuck I will. No. I don't even donate to my own Red Cross because they were the center of a big controversy

a while back about child trafficking and laundering money and all that shit. $3,500. $3,500 a post. It's lucrative. I can see why Dom Lucre would fucking be charging those prices now. I kind of get that. I kind of get it.

But I not so kindly turned it down. I'm not interested. I'm not interested in exploiting my base for that. I think that's fucked up. But if you want to, if you want to donate, you could tip us, and then we could put some money in the Bigfoot jar, which would be nice.

Goes to Badlands, so they can keep doing their thing. I got a lot of badlands haters this week again. I don't know if something happened in the badlands around. I'm not really into all that. But I don't know. But all of a sudden, like the haters came back out. Kind of like they did when that one lady left.

I don't remember her name. I had a bunch haters. I got a bunch haters this week, too. Like, what did y'all's problem? What's going on? Something happened? Something changed? I didn't watch John's show.

Maybe I should have. Did he address anything? No, my shit ain't for sale. You ain't gonna fucking tie me into that. you hold out for more money. I'm going to need 10K. You want me to flip on these people? You'll know it too.

Like if they were to offer me like $100,000, I'd be like, you know what? Fuck yeah. You've $100,000? Yeah. Yep. And then you'll know it too because I'll be like, Shabbat Shalom.

Check out this website. And then you'll know and you'll be like, fucking A shit. I'll be like 100,000. It was 100K. Hiya. They have baby dick habits. It must be.

I don't know. They just kind of came out of nowhere this week. Again, and we ran into them before, like when I first started, there was some stuff going on that, again, I didn't really know about, a lot about. And I'm not really in the groups or in the loops or I don't, you know, I didn't go to Gart. So I don't really, I just come on and do my show. But they were like, oh my God. They're like, Badlands pays you so much. I don't want to think they do. They don't pay me $3,500 a show. I can tell you that. I could tell you that.

I mean, if they want to. What up? What up? Where's she at? This is my girl right here. It's my badlands girl. I know where she went. There she is.

Jessica, I'm going to need $3,500 a show. Or I'm going to start promoting Israel stuff. Sucks. Sucks for Badlands. God damn. All right, let's go. Let's talk about the moon. So they went to the moon.

They didn't go to the moon. It was all Katie Perry style. They didn't really go to the moon. They went around the moon to see the dark side of the moon. Because, like, anybody gives a shit about the dark side of the moon right now. But we did. And I really talked about it, but I was kind of watching some videos about it. I had to find rides to soccer tomorrow. I found some videos about it. And I knew it was fake, but then I found these videos talking about a DART program, NASA's Dart D-A-R-T program.

And I'm going to play them all. But first, let's go through the fakeness. Here we go. Oh, wow. Would you look at that? Just a new teladjar floating around in the Artemis 2 spacecraft. Rotating perfectly to show the label. Definitely random. this is all important equipment, why isn't it strapped down? Seems like the perfect advertisement, especially since Nutella posted it themselves. Definitely not being mocked, right? And why can't Artemis II just move the camera to the window to show us what they're actually seeing? Instead, in 2026, we get still shots. No live stream of a moon mission, just a 2D visualizer, and people believe it's real. Not strange at all that a NASA employee has this tattoo. Nothing to see here. Why

show us Earth piece by piece, but not everything? People in 1969 had black and white footage of the moon landing, live on their TVs. Even a phone to call the president. Yet in 2026, no live stream of the moon, while Don Pettit, a NASA astronaut, said, we don't have the technology to do that anymore. You can believe what you're shown, or you can start asking why it's all staged so perfectly. Either it's real or it's the most convincing show on Earth. I don't know about convincing. I don't know about convincing at this point because like we're a group's

of people that don't believe jack diddle is shit no more we don't believe nothing nothing i don't believe anything that anybody says i'm like i mean i live in the maybes do you know what i mean maybe maybe we went to the back side of the moon maybe we did it to try and divert attention away from iran or five dollar gallon gas i'm about to puke i have to fill up tomorrow i don't fucking want to it's going to be 60 some dollars somebody tank was like 140. I'd die. We wouldn't make it. I'd be out here begging for money on TikTok. Just like, these are the people I see. $20 away from my goal. Oh my God. No, I wouldn't. I'd go get a job at Casey's probably. I had to. We don't believe nothing. So I don't know

that it's that convincing. People, he just seems fucking wild. People didn't even believe it before it happened. That's insane. Like, we are in a sane, an insane place in the universe right now, People, like, they announced they were going to do this, just like, not really out of the blue, but kind of out of the blue. And people were like, yeah, right, bud. Like, whatever. Whatever. You know, and if they were bored, then they went in and started picking it apart and, like, making videos about it. We didn't believe shit.

We were just fucking fighting with cat turd for our lives in the comments. Like, whatever, dude. So there was that. Here's some more. This guy did a pretty good job of calling all this. There's a lot of stuff. There's a lot of stuff that people picked apart. Do you know that Christina Koch was actually a character in Mad Max in 2015?

Yeah, NASA astronaut Christina Koch appeared as one of the Vuvilini in the 2015 Mad Max Fury Road. And then just 10 years later, she's going to the moon. What an exciting life, huh? Apparently, she's only even been an astronaut for only 13 years. And she completed her candidate training in 2015, the same year that she was filming to be in a movie. Yeah, the two of the four American astronauts that are on that flight, they're right out of central casting. right out of central casting. Let's not forget about the words appearing on the stuffed animal

and then him quickly moving it out of the way. Let's not forget about how the bag phased directly through Buddy's ear right here. And what the hell is he even doing? Let's not forget the vanishing red dot. Terrible quality video, even though you couldn't take a bad quality video nowadays, even if you tried. In 1995 digital camera. Video from inside the ship from the entire 10-day trip,

except for when they're free falling at 25. thousand miles per hour no close-up shots either they're making sure they're keeping their distance for some reason none of this is melting even though this fucking ship would be hotter than lava a crew going up and touching the ship and their hands are somehow not burning off here's a little bonus clip from a separate team of dumb asses why did the ball fall straight to the floor if they're in space could you imagine if we'd have had um tic-tok and social media back when we went to the first moon landing he'd be like, how's the flag waving if there's no gravity? I love that here.

I fucking love the internet. Now this is like, this next one I'm going to show you. I don't have it downloaded, I just realized. I'm having kind of an off day, apparently. My husband is having an off day too. We're just having off days. We're probably under some kind of spiritual attack. We probably just need to go to bed.

But I'm going to share a screen. I have it in my telegram. So I have to upload these videos to my telegram so that I can download them to my computer. so that I can re-upload them back to, you know what, it's not in that. It's a process, but it's not that important because of my phone. But that's all right. So it's this video right here.

I'm going to play this. Hopefully you can hear it. Let me know in the comments if you can't. And then I'll just have to shorten it up for you. No, nothing. You know what? You know what I did wrong? Fuck this day.

Fuck this day all the hell. Stop screen. Share screen. and then my mic wasn't working like 30 seconds before I was supposed to go live. Just, fuck it. There we go. I think we got him now. There he is.

Look at that. Look at that guy. All right, here we go. This is some guy on TikTok, but it's a good stop. So listen, listen, listen. Can you hear it? There's no audio. You know what?

Fine. Hold on. Just, I know. I know. I know. I know. Give it a minute. In the meantime, two rabbis.

and a black man walking to a bar. I'm just kidding. I can't tell that joke. That's terrible. Where did he go? I was going to try and upload it. I got NASA weird shit. Okay, there it is. Trump, NASA, Dart. But it won't let me upload it either.

Are we just not? Are we going to fight? Okay, well, here's the thing. Stop sharing. Oh, maybe it'll upload. We'll see. So he talks about this program called Dart. And what Dart is, is it's a program. with NASA, and they've been doing this for a long time, they've been sending rockets into space in order to intercept meteors, like big meteors that come down and fall out of the sky.

That's what that's what DART is. And so he thinks that we're faking this whole moon circulation thing so that we can send a rocket to space and hit a big meteor, which is implying, like he's implying that maybe there's a big meteor headed towards Earth and we just didn't know about it. And so, which is kind of why I like this moon thing, kind of came kind of out of nowhere. Hold for processing. Yeah, I know. It's still coming.

I don't know. It's a good video. Maybe I'll post it to X. But X got all fucking weird about posting third party videos. I don't know. I'm not worried about the monetization of it. I'm just like, will it get there? It's a good video.

Fuck these fucking technology. Fuck everything. But that's what it is. And so he goes through and he kind of explains the whole thing. And it's really interesting. I'll post it to X. And Dart is an actual program. So I got another video of this guy.

And he's explaining what it is. NASA just demonstrated the Dart mission, the double asteroid redirect test. NASA sent a space probe with a deployable space observing platform, which I think was made by the Italians. He's named Luca, I think. Anyhow, it went into slam into this asteroid to try to change its orbital period around because there's a moonlight around the main asteroid. And it succeeded.

Changed the orbital period by half an hour. And it would have been counted as a success had it changed it by 73 seconds. So NASA is working on its muscle to deflect asteroids, which is what you're going to need in the future. So that's what he thinks. That's what they think it is. Hi-ya. So I thought that was super interesting.

Yeah, he's a different guy. But he's got some good points. I don't know. The Dart thing is legit. I did go look it up. There is a program. program and this is what they do. And then they asked, somebody else had asked, why don't they just like send up a bomb to shoot the asteroid out of the sky? And the reason they don't do that is because

then they can't control which way the parts are falling. And so they do dart and they like, instead of like exploding it, they just push it off track. Do you remember that movie with Bruce Willis? That was kind of like that. You know, they were going to blow it up. And then they were going to split it in half so it would go around the earth instead of two. Kind of same thing. Kind of the same thing. So that's what he thinks. But that's not the only weird shit that's going on at NASA.

So some other people seem to think that we're going to NASA sending people the moon, quote unquote, because they're trying to hide the missing scientists. Have you guys seen this? I haven't seen a lot about this, but this is super interesting. There is so much weird stuff happening with NASA that I... Not that one. No, that one's gone, no. There is so much weird stuff happening

I hope it's not that one either That's the same video I tried to show you Is it here? Oh, fuck. Okay, I'm going to show you this guy's video Talking about Dart and then there's another program Where all these scientists are missing So while you watch this video, I'll pull

There is so much weird stuff happening with NASA That I just can't keep up anymore Did you guys hear about this? Now even though this guy passed away back in 2023 He is now the ninth scientist tied to the same NASA story of a growing conspiracy of scientists that are either missing or dead. So the two on the bottom, I think, are the most recent.

But Michael Hicks, he was involved with the DART missions, and that stands out to me. Because in August of 25, I posted a TikTok with a theory about how I think that disclosure is actually announcing that there's an asteroid that's going to hit Earth. And then my profile got taken down permanently. And we just launched a rocket last week. I know it's the Artemis 2 mission, but I don't think it's actually real. I think we launched a rocket, yeah, but I don't think we sent astronauts in there. They came back on the zip line.

And I don't think that rocket is coming back to Earth either. Because no one's going to witness that. No one's going to witness the rocket returning. Everyone just watched it taking off. So my theory anyway is that Artemis 2 is actually a dart mission. And there's a lot of reasons why that would make sense. First of all, you got this guy, Sean Duffy. You've probably seen him on TV because he was a third.

Fox News Anchor for a while and before that he was on MTV, The Real World. But this guy was selected to be the acting administrator for NASA. I think it's rather interesting that it's always referred to his role as the acting administrator. Almost as if he's the administrator of acting. They never call him the administrator for NASA. It's just acting administrator. What would you be the administrator of if not for acting with that title, right? And that theory holds some weight when you hear him talk.

about central casting because he did he talked about it on fox news and donald trump selected him specifically for his look for his central casting look two of the four american astronauts that are on that flight they're right out of central casting so we have someone flat out telling us that these astronauts are actors from central casting so that actually makes sense then that they're just faking it they're trying to convince the public that they are on a mission to go around the moon for for no freaking reason. And then we're watching all these AI videos of the backside of the moon

as if that's really what we're seeing. And I'm sure they'll tell us that they returned to Earth and landed in the ocean somewhere and the dolphins were swimming around like last time, right? It's all a show. It's all reality television, which we know is scripted. And I can go on and on and on. Something about these astronauts doesn't add up.

In fact, there's one particular detail of the pilot that really stands out to me. So this guy was an F-A-18 pilot, but then he was on Senator McCain's administrative team for a while. Like he was in politics, I guess. And now he's the pilot for Artemis 2. Really? And this is the same Victor Glover that listens to Whitney on the Moon twice a week when he goes to work. Do you guys know what that poem is about?

Whitney on the Moon is a spoken word poem that critiques American economic inequality during the Apollo Moon missions. drawing attention to systemic issues faced by black Americans. So we've got a black American pilot that's listening to a poem twice a week about systemic economic inequality for black Americans, particularly spending money on moon missions and then being the pilot of his own moon mission. None of this makes sense. This is all one big show. This is central casting. it's one bad movie, as Stephen Baldwin would call it,

and we're about to see the grand finale. Now, the reason this intrigues me is because, do you remember back in November, we were supposed to get hit by an alien? Sputters almost. You better not. It's all. It's just an opinion.

Okay. No, this is fact. This is all for entertainment purposes only. Do you remember? Back in November, there was an alien mother ship that was supposed to hit. Remember? So that kind of intrigues me a little bit because were they saying something? Were they saying something was coming?

And then did they send an Artemis up there to knock it off? Like is there some kind of war going on up in the Katie Perry space of the sky that we don't know about? It's very interesting stuff. It's just something, something to ponder, something to ponder. And I did find, yeah. So on top of all of this, NASA and your bullshit, okay? So as of April 2026, reports indicate growing and concerning. list over 8 to 10 U.S. scientists and researchers, many with ties to NASA, the jet propulsion

laboratory, and defense projects who have either died, been murdered, or gone missing under mysterious circumstances. Look at all these people. Isn't that insane? Why is nobody talking about this? They're all missing or dead. Died July 4th, 2024? Like, where are these people?

And now we're like going to the moon? And there's an alien mothership coming and aliens are real. And, and, and, like, something's funky and funky town, man. Markerubi made a deal before they could get here. I read it on. Made a deal with what? The gray's. Is that what we're talking about?

Are we still dealing with the grays? Why can't we have the other ones? Like, there's good big foots and bad big foots. Why can't we have the good big foots? And make sure you hit the like button if you haven't. or don't I don't you know

um subscriber gives five dollars in badlands gets every cent yes correct they do I just

I felt like that was fucking weird like are they setting us up for something to prepare kind of for something and then maybe it didn't happen or maybe we sent a rocket up there

do you know what I mean are we making intergalactic deals that they're not telling the public about maybe they should we had that one president that did it president ike he made intergalactic deals were in regards to nuclear

weapons etc etc so i don't know i'm just saying it sounds crazy but it doesn't sound that crazy here in 2026 so we'll see we'll see i guess what else do i got

you guys don't talk about dead internet so nikita had made a post a while back Nikita okay so niquita works on x He's like the X's. He does all the stuff. He's in charge of the algorithm. He's the algorithm guy next.

And he's also the guy in charge of like the monetization program. And so he's making all these changes. He's pissing everybody off. I don't personally care. Like my pay on X dropped out dramatically. But like I'm used to this. So because TikTok does it too. Like they all do it.

You're just, that's social media for you. You know, you can't. It's never consistent. There's no HR department. There's nobody to complain to. You can't. You can't depend on it. Like you just can't.

But it's dropped off and a lot of people were depending on it. Now they're very upset. But he also came out and said something too in the middle of all of this. And that's what kind of this video is about. A few weeks ago, Nikita gets on his own platform and says, In less than 90 days, I message, phone calls and Gmail will be so flooded with spam and automation that they will no longer be usable and we will have no way to stop it. Now, this isn't some random schmuck posting conspiracy theories on Reddit about how Chipotle gives you diary on purpose.

No, this is a man who gets professionally destroyed by this shit every single, day and he's basically telling the rest of us to lube up because it's coming for everyone. Two weeks later, he purges 1.7 million bot accounts off X and the next day they just respawn. See, bots used to be simple. Now, they have like a PhD in natural language processing and a Bitcoin wallet. And so someone asks him why it's about to get worse. And his answer was the one word no one wants to hear OpenClaw. Now, if you're not familiar with OpenClaw, firstly, I envy you. It's currently the highest star software project in GitHub history. It has more stars than React.

Jensen Wong, the CEO of Nvidia, who is almost certainly never tried OpenClaught or even knows what it does, just called it the most important open source project in the history of humanity. What OpenClaught does is it lets any moron with a laptop, build an AI agent that can send emails and text and browse the web and make phone calls and impersonate at you. Some guy had his OpenClaw negotiate car prices with dealers over iMessage while he was at brunch. The Tito's point is basically what happens when every scammer in Nigeria and every crypto bro in Miami and every horny catfisher in Wyoming gets one of these. See, because before, you needed to actually know shit to be a spammer. You needed to know how to operate servers and write scripts and read code. Now you just need a laptop and the moral compass of a pharma CEO.

And the problem with spam is not just that it's a nuisance. The Chinese government, surprise, surprise, they figure this out before anyone. The Chinese government floods X search results with porn every time there's some political unrest. So when there's protests in China, the search result for Chinese keywords suddenly become nothing but tits and ass. It's no longer censorship or blocking the information. Now you drown the information out with content that is 10 times more engaging. Some guy in Beijing opens up X to look up protest footage and instead finds himself jerking off for 45 minutes. The CCP is looking through his webcam like, nice, we got him.

You can't overthrow the guy. government while you're jerking off. It's the great come wall of China. Basically, we all live behind that wall now. And the reply spam on X, I mean, it used to be like hot girls in bikinis saying, check out my profile. Now it's AI generated hot girls with AI generated bikinis going check out my AI generated profile, which links to an AI generated crypto scam. We used to get scammed by real people, damn it. The worst part about modern AI content is that every single piece of AI generated content was specifically engineered at the neural network level to be more engaging than anything a human being can ever write. There's a process called RLHF where they train these models by

showing humans two responses and asking them which one do you prefer and then they just reinforce whichever one is more compelling. Every AI model has been mathematically optimized to hold your attention better than any human written piece of content ever could. Google traffic to actual publishers dropped 38% last year. in the US alone. The economic model of the internet is collapsing. We had a deal. We paid humans to write genuine things and in exchange they got ad revenue. That deal is now dead. Because why would an ad network pay a human when a bot generates more clicks? The algorithm doesn't care. The ad networks don't care. Nobody in the chain between creation and monetization has any incentive whatsoever to

care if it's real. You can see this playing out everywhere. Of YouTube's 100 fastest growing channels last year, nearly 10 were fully AI generated. Slop was the Miriam Webster word of the year for 2025. We went from selfie to Slop in about 10 years. That's basically the arc of the internet in a single sentence. And I mean, look, the internet was always full of spam. Let's not pretend it wasn't. But at least the spam used to be stupid. You could see it coming from a mile away. The grammar was shit. You had like three different fonts in a single sentence. Nobody felt for that shit. Almost nobody. And now the spam is smarter than you. It writes better. than you. The spam went out and got a college degree and you're still on your parents' phone plan.

And Nikita. Poor, poor Nikita. I mean, he's still in there fighting. He added a dislike button to replies last week. That's basically like the forefront of spam fighting today. A freaking dislike button. And so you're probably wondering, okay, so what happens next? What's the play? But this isn't that kind of video. There's no solution to this. This isn't a problem we just fix. This is just what the internet is now. And it's only going to get weirder from here. You're in-bar. is going to be so full of AI-generated emails that are so personalized and so well-written that the only way to know if something is real

is if you already know the person who sent it. If some stranger emails you a perfectly crafted pitch, it's fake. If you get a LinkedIn message that seems weirdly relevant to like your exact career situation, fake. You get a DM from a beautiful woman who seems genuinely interested in your personality. Brother, come on. The old internet wasn't perfect,

but at least smart people could recognize the spam from a mile away. In the new internet, you won't be able to tell anymore. Because the thing that's trying to fool you was built from the ground up to be better at fooling you than you are at not being fooled. It's not a fair fight. It's not even close. And in the meantime, the only thing that still means anything on this internet is the people you already trust. It's not going to be the individual posts or the platforms or the algorithms. It's people. Specific humans who have earned it over time. that's it. That's all that's left. Isn't that sad? I don't know if it's sad.

What is going to happen to us once the Internet? Because it's coming. You can see it. There are certain topics that I just simply cannot post about because I don't get any real people. I have so many. I lost 2,500 followers on X overnight. And that's not a ton in comparison to a lot of these accounts with large followings on X when they did the purge. Like what happens? Some of this shit, this isn't even fun to watch anymore. It's just not.

X isn't fun to be on anymore. The debates used to be fun, not fun, lively, centered around humanity, I guess. But now you don't know if you're talking to a real person or a bot unless you have interacted with this person for a long time. He's exactly right. So what happens? And I'm trying to think of like something in history that could be kind of relevant to this, that got so big that it just basically ate itself and people stopped using it. And I can't really think of anything.

Oh, X's, X and Instagram are just, X has gotten really bad. I thought TikTok was bad, but X is like, X's, like, X's, I don't even know. My glasses are so crooked. I don't even know. It's weird. Weird because I can't hear myself. I have to wear these glasses, like hooks on the back of my glass because they're too big.

They fall off my face, but they don't fit on the earphones very well. So how much time I was spending arguing with bots? Yeah. I did too. I did too. And I'm doing my damnedest. I don't, I'm pretty much posting ghosts now. And I hate that because I love talking to all of you.

guys like everybody you know I love talk I love to have this comedy even if you're mad at me like I'd love to hear it but like I post anything about Eric Kirk Dan Bonjino Charlie Kirk or Donald Trump and it is just fucking unreal I think I would venture to say it's more 90% ads oh it's and Facebook's fucking terrible I posted on I have a Facebook account if you want to follow me there it was doing well but it's kind of I posted something and it fell off the map now, but it was from something Harris, Jr. And he used to follow him.

He was one of the first O.Gs that I'd ever followed. David Harris, Jr.? Yeah. But he posted this fucking AI shit. And it's about Iran. It says, call me crazy, but I'd rather pay higher guys presses temporarily than sit on our ass and do nothing until Iran does this to us.

And it's like, first, the fuck of all. If Iran was going to do anything to us, they would have done it under Joe Biden when our military was crippled. if you want to go with like the semantics of it all right probably would have done it then okay but oh but Biden was given him much they could have came in and bombed us all and took all our money okay they've been saying it for 10 15 plus fucking years that Iran was coming I mean oh my mouse just died did you die

it's fine it did die I can't do anything that's all right I can do it up here they've been saying it for a long time and so posting this AI fucking schlop it's just lazy. It's just lazy. It's so stupid and it makes me so mad. It's like, it makes me so mad. Well, I think it needs to charge. I don't know if I turned it off. I just can't with electronics today. I just can't. Mr. Shipwrex out of your dancing around. Six months away from getting a nuke. Yeah, I mean, it's just, man, we don't even create memes anymore. We just have fucking Artifist Chat GPT do it for us.

And it's full, Facebook is full of it. And I use chat, so listen, I do use ChatGPT to put my recipes and recipe cards because Canva is kind of a nightmare to use. And so I just put all my ingredients in there and the directions and then I say put this on a nice recipe card and it will most of the time. I have to always double check it because it always gets shit wrong. And so I usually end up doing Canva anyway. But I've been, I'm sorry, yeah, I am having a day.

X is um it's just a fucking shit show it's a giant pile of dog shit it is almost impossible to use anymore and Facebook is full of ads I use Instagram reels more than anything now I should have taken that $3,500 checkle deal I should have! I got to pay for my kids summer basketball

we did find it we did find one sponsor and then the shipwreck show sponsored the rest because if I don't give it to them, then I have to give it to the government. Which reminds me, they do look nice, thank you. Which reminds me it's tax day. So we filed, but we might just file exemption

or file a, what do you call it, where we're not going to pay for a while and see how it goes. We might not get anything. Normally we would have gotten a letter by now, but we haven't gotten shit. So I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen with the dead internet.

Do we all go back to cord phones then? We all just stop using social media. Because it's not really the internet that's dying. It's social media. It's just social media. Like you can't, I can't believe anything I fucking see anymore from anybody. You know, and people say it.

They're like, they're constantly in my comments. Do you get paid? Who pays you? Like, obviously, I don't. I do not. file and extension. I'm just going to keep filing extensions. Just over and over again until

somebody goes and burns that office down. There's a guy that burned down Amazon warehouses. You guys hear about that? He's like, all you do is pay us the living wage and he lit a bunch of toilet paper on fire and fucking dipped. Burned down the entire fucking thing. That's balls. That's balls right there. Good for that guy.

Going to jail. Good for that. Tell him to trip up quadruple. Yeah. I will. You'll see it. I'll tell you. know you'll know because they'll be like shabbat shalom my disciples Jesus was killed by the Romans I won't wear my necklace but like Jesus understand like I need that $3,500 give me that cash you fucking sell my asses I will I think more of that might be coming soon people yeah they're just over it a lot of people I don't even what I post and what I consume are

two different things they just are I know a lot of people say this. Marjor Taylor Green did a whole live about this. And look, I get it. And I wish, like, I didn't know about the experiences of the IRS, but I do. I've been on the wrong side. It's not fun. I don't like it.

They will garnish your wages. They will threaten to take your home. That's not a joke. So I just find as many fucking loopsholes as I possibly can and not pay in as much. I write everything off. So if you ever see me posting about this or that, at a basketball tournament or if I'm at a bakery in Lincoln, Nebraska, okay, trying out a new bakery, just know that I'm writing that trip off. That's part of this. So between me and you and

everybody that's in here, we just find loopholes. We don't go through like H&R block. We have like a guy that does this. My husband went to college with him, but he does it for like big corporations, but he does ours. And I'm not a big corporation, but he's like, like we go on date nights every week we try to as often as we can we have date nights we write those off because we nine times out of ten we'll talk about work and like strategize for the week my work um facebook banned me for 12 years i had two dead accounts on facebook they banned me off there for my covid talk so i started a new one though we'll see 1.5 bells hey is it really you want you want me to send you the email

Oh shit. I don't know, man. Well, I'll go back to courted phones. Well, I'll go back to the 90s living. I wouldn't hate that. I thought about, like, there's a whole trend on TikTok about giving your kids the 90s summer. My kids are older, though. So, like, we can't really do that because they have their own thing. But I'm living my best 90s life right now. Like, I'm trying. I have my 90s kitchen. And we're not updating any of it, except for the appliances because we had, too, because they were broken. But we're not updating anything else. And I'm going to live in my 90s kitchen. I do. Oh, I've got a video about this. We need to spend money like we live in the 90s. God damn, my mouse doesn't work. I keep forgetting.

I got to use my stupid laptop mouse. Spend money like we live in the 90s. We should be spending money like our parents spent money in the 90s. I didn't get so obsessed with stuff. I was talking to my mom about how now that I'm not working. We got a really real in our budget. I can't just be getting my meals done. And she was kind of baffled.

She was like, this is how people lived in the 90s. Like, we never got our nails done weekly. We, you guys got one set of clothing at the beginning of the year. And then you wore that until you grew out of it. Or it was the summer and you needed like your shorts and your t-shirt. If we needed something, we had to just go to the grocery store. She's just like, there wasn't as many like things bombarding us from every angle. Like purchase, purchase, sale, sale.

We had like three pairs of pants in five shirts and that's what you wore. There was no jeans, light jeans, stretchy jeans, barrel jeans, wide-leg jeans. When did that happen? Really need to think about how I spend my money and like, does my kid need this because they've outgrown it or do I just think they need those cute Easter pajamas? Like, who's going to see them in their Easter jammies besides me? I know there's a lot of like raising my kids to be 90s kids. We should be spending money like our parents did in the 90s.

It's so wild because we do this kind of right now. Like we take our kids, our kids get school shop. We go school shopping at the beginning of the year. And that's pretty much what they have. And they wear that until it's. doesn't fit anymore. And if it doesn't, like, if they come up and they say, okay, these pants are too small, then I will order them new ones. But they wear them until they don't fit anymore. Same with shoes, except for basketball shoes. They have to get basketball shoes. But even though,

you're going to wear them until they don't fit anymore. Like, we still spend like this. I had no idea that I know the holiday jammies gets me every time. They got me too when them kids were little. I was like, everybody needs Christmas jammies. And we need to match. Okay. It's going to be great. It's going to be great. Nobody even saw them. Nobody even saw them. We need to go back to spending money like in the 90s. We're going to go back to living like we were in the 90s. Internet, the social media shit, is going to be so bad.

But it makes me think like if you're getting brand deals and stuff, or let's say you sign up for the Israel Red Cross thing. Okay? But all of your impressions are from bots, then they're not going to get anything out of it. So why would brands continue to pay money to influencers to push content out to nothing but a bunch of? of bots. I just, I think the whole thing is going to eat itself and then we'll get robots.

Maybe. We'll see. We used to do thrifting in the 90s, really cool stuff, even from the 30s and 40s. I'm on a pyrecks, not a pyrex, like, I think it's pirates. I'm on that kind of kick, like at the thrift stores. I'm buying all the new, the old glass casserole dishes and stuff with the glass lids and they're white and then they have the little Dutch blue stamp on them because my grandma I used to have those. And the lady here in town, she just got some in, so I might go down and pick them up. And I'm getting rid of all my, I got rid of all my Tupperware. We don't have Tupperware anymore.

We swap those out with glass dishes and lids because, well, Tupperware is just microplastics, I guess. With that and it's just kind of shit. It doesn't clean very well. It's hard to clean. It just didn't work out very well. Christmas jammies in the 80s and 90s. 80s were great rocked out in the 90s. Corningware was.

another one, I do have one corning wear pan. They're expensive, though. They were. I don't know if they still are, but they were. We go back to the 90s. We should do a 90s show some night and just relive, like, top 10 music of the 90s, and we could do like top 10 outfits of the 90s. Wouldn't that be fun? I want to do more fun stuff. The politics is just depressing me lately. And I can't change any of it. It just depresses y'all and makes y'all mad. Makes me mad. keeps my nervous system all fired up. Like I fucking...

And the bots are unbelievable. That's why you got some cooking videos this week. I did make those banana bars. They were super good. It's on X. If you're a subscriber on X or Facebook or Instagram, maybe. I don't know if I posted Instagram. Anyway, you'll get the printable recipe, but the video is out there.

Make yourself some banana bars. Well, so I got an X. Oh, characters in a book. This video made me laugh. You won't find evidence for God here. What are you nuts? We're like characters in a book looking for evidence of the author

inside the book. God, I hope you're stoned. We're like we're like characters in a book looking for evidence of the author inside the book. But the author isn't in the book. Do you understand? Harry Potter

can't find J.K. Rolling at Hogwarts. She's not there. So that might be frustrating for him. It would be within his rights to be like, well, this is bullshit, you know what I mean? But deep down in his essence, Harry Potter

is J.K. Rowling. He borrows his reality from J.K. Rowling. His mind is an apparent limitation of J.K. Rowling's mind. And the greatest evidence of an author isn't in the book. The greatest evidence of the author is the book. And there is a

book, let's pray. Heavenly Father, we are fish looking for water. That's like the third video of his. that I caught and that video just cracks me up. I'm over here trying to plug my mouth in but it's too dark I can't see. There we go. I got it. He cracks me up.

He's the one. He also did a skit on like nonbelievers. He's like, I'd rather believe in something than to believe in nothing. That doesn't make any sense. Yeah, because of the lead. Yeah, radioactive clay and still got ginger. Yeah, and some of them still have lead too, so you got to be really careful of what you get.

That was pretty good. I know. That made me laugh. what else we got? Peter Holmes also did a 90s, but we should do a 90s show. That would be super duper fun. Oh, remember we were talking about earlier?

I could maybe finish with this one. Maybe. Remember we were talking about earlier about the songs? Like, the angels up in the clouds are jealous and we found it up in so wild. Like, and it makes you kind of stop. Like, angels aren't supposed to get jealous.

Like, I don't think that that's the right thing to say. This lady, and then I caught this video So here. I can't listen to a lot of music because all I hear is fallen angel music. Like when I'm listening to the words, I'm like, this is a love song to a fallen angel. This is a fallen angel. Like speaking through this person, like, it's all I can hear. And I can't enjoy the music.

Even songs that are supposed to be like positive or like, you know, make you feel happy. I can't enjoy it. I was listening to Pocket Full of Sunshine by Natasha Beddingfield. And I was really like listening to the words. And I was like, this is fallen angel music. Iris by the Gougu Doll, Locked out of Heaven by Bruno Mars. That one's self-explanatory. I am so happy that it seems like so.

many of God's people are starting to come to this conclusion. My discernment went from here, like, through the roof. Like, you can hear God so much more clearly when you stop listening to that music. I am 1,000% convinced that they are tuning people to a frequency that puts you outside of God. Like, God can reach you, but you can't hear him. Like, your body gets tuned to something else. And on my old account that got taken down, I had a ton of video showing my cymatics board where I would play like a secular song and it would literally shoot the sand like across the room like I kept having to buy more sand because anytime I would play any kind of secular music it would just make the sand fly off the board and then I would play like a good worship song and it would like create these

beautiful patterns and anytime that I talk about like oh I heard god answer my prayer like I can hear his voice people make fun of me but when I talk to those people they're music junkies they nonstop listen to secular music or they're constantly watching television or like constantly on the phone or whatever it's the frequency of these things i'm totally convinced that they're trying to tune us away from god so that we can't hear him when he speaks to us because he doesn't go anywhere so if we can't hear him and we can't sense him it's because we moved away from him i thought that video was so interesting i'd never heard of anybody reference it to the music to fallen angels that was really interesting. He took the jab. I don't know. But I'm kind of like I kind of understand this a little bit

because there are songs and this has been my whole life where they'll, it just feels like, well, maybe that's like I'm walking with the devil. And I'm like, and I don't feel like I want to listen to that anymore. You know what I mean? It's very strange. Very strange. That's it. I guess all I got for tonight because everything's just falling apart apparently up here. I got my mouse charging though, which is good news, bears. So hopefully to work next week. Hopefully everything works better next week. I don't know. There's a satanic ceremony around every, yeah, there is. I mean, there's a whole rabbit hole to that. But around the Hollywood and the music industry, like Jay-Z, I mean, there is a rabbit hole around it. And it's when we've been down millions of times. But I never thought about the frequency

taking away from God, which is interesting. So I just never considered that. I thought that was very interesting. I'm going to go. I'm going to go, you guys. Thanks for coming in tonight. Thanks for sticking around. I know that.

I know, I know. I know. I know it's been triggering for some of you. You know, and even like some bigger accounts that we've, we've been mutuals for a long time. are in my comments like, what are you doing? And I'm like, well, I don't know what to tell you. Like, I'm not sure what the perception was here, but I never glorified the man.

I never put Trump on a pedestal. I did vote for him, yes, because I did. I felt like he was the only way that we were going to get ourselves pulled out of this. And now I don't know. I guess we're not. I guess Jesus is the way and we're just going to bake cookies until it happens. I'm sorry, but I can't. not not see it. I can't just pretend because I built my entire persona around it because I didn't

build my whole persona around it. And I know that's tough and I'm sorry for that, but that's where we are. And I'm not going to lie about it. I'm sure fuck not going to take money to lie about it. That's dumb. So, thanks for coming out. Thanks for supporting me, everyone. I appreciate it. Is my keyboard not working either. Is nothing working? Nothing is working. Nothing works. Hold on. I got to check the rumble rants, but I can't even get over there. Oh, I do have one.

Here we go. Keith Ogenhagen. I donated for your birthday last week. Too late. I found you a perfect theme song, Believer by Puddles, The Clown, a cover by Imagine Drogers on YouTube Live Laugh. I will. I'll check it out. Thank you, Keith.

For $5 in the Bigfoot jar. Give her a shake. And with that I'm going to bounce. You guys, I love your faces. Keep your moving. Take it easy. Tell your mom says hi and watch out for dear. Bye, guys. Maybe. If you need a break from the politics, please consider subscribing to our substack or subscribing to our ex-subscribers, just good food, good friends, and good times. We'll see you later. Thanks, friends.
