There's a deep and uneasy irony here: many of those behind the seeding of gender ideology through our culture see it, in part, as a(nother) means to split us off from our biological nature, so as to increasingly incorporate us into a predictable, manageable, monitorable, digitised transhuman future.
A 'podcast' critiquing an aspect of gender ideology 'hosted' by digitised, non-human entities? I doesn't work at all for me. I want to hear from real, flesh and blood, experientially founded, soulful human beings. Only that is appropriate for dealing with this topic, in particular. And our lives are already digitised and transhumanised enough. I'm sick of it.
That's really a pretty decent job, apart from the pronunciation. I think Notebook LM, and particularly this "Deep Dive" feature, can be a great way to break down quite complicated info.
No I gave it a try but I can't listen to that. It's like those YouTube videos where you think a human being is going to speak to you and it is a text to speech thing (or maybe, I am wondering now, an AI thing?) that churns along emphasising the wrong words and mispronouncing others. I can't be doing with them, its like fingernails repeatedly screeching down a blackboard and I down-vote those videos every time I am tricked into playing them. They should have a Trigger Warning: robot voice. I say this as someone who spent the vast majority of my working life programming voice-output communication aids and working with people who use them. It's not the technology I dislike, it's the application.
Omg this came out on my Apple podcast feed yesterday and I was so confused why Glinner had shared a pod from hosts that came across so fake and hyper upbeat. It all makes sense now. The content was great but the delivery was diabolical and I couldn’t understand how they kept effing up the pronunciation of the same acronym. Blimey if this is the future I refuse to inhabit it. I’m ex radio and it’s a no no from me, no matter how clever!

No. I don’t think so.
How will we ever know what's real? No change then.
Nice work. We truly live in the future.
Albeit a technically amazing and ethically nutty one.
This is amazing, I’ve listened to half of it thinking they were real people!
