GM! Well the last 2 weeks were filled with tech challenges, jury duty and birthdays! We took both of our birthdays off this past week so we only had 1 episode this past week. You'll find the past two weeks of episodes. This coming week we are back to our usual schedule with a west coast friendly Monday episode at 11:30 am ET and 8:30 am ET for Wednesday and Friday with the Los Fomos crew joining us Wednesday.

Speaking of /fctrivia, be sure to study up and join us for Trivia this Wednesday at noon ET this week with last week's prize sponsored by PURPLE! And here's some alpha: study up on Purple -- there will definitely be at least one question about Purple! And the rest will come from /gmfarcaster episodes or the timeline. Check out some highlights from last week and jump in the game!
Due to a technical issue, we redid the second half of Monday’s show on Tuesday. Apologies to everyone who joined us live Monday for the rugging.
From our ChatGPT Intern: The GM Farcaster hosts kicked off episode 256.5 with a self-roast over yesterday’s livestream fail (turns out talking into the void is less effective), then pivoted into a spirited debate on Farcaster’s centralization “vibes” versus decentralization aspirations, all while reassuring listeners that yes, you can still post from the command line if the algorithm hates you. In between audio déjà vu and tech gods’ vengeance, they unpacked Dan’s spicy post on where Farcaster’s still centralized, why paying creators beats funding Zuck’s next yacht, and how, in five years, everyone will call it an overnight success

From our ChatGPT Intern: In today’s episode, a copy-pasta bot army accidentally made Pugson the most important man on Farcaster while leaderboard winners hit IRS thresholds so fast they’re now honorary Merkle employees with W-9s. Meanwhile, the wallet broke for a minute, the mini apps are chaos, and trivia starts “noon-ish,” because time is a construct and producers have the same alarm clock as Christin.

From our ChatGPT Intern: Friday the 13th struck early as GM Farcaster kicked off with a computer challenges, an internet outage, and guest co-host Erica putting Pear into service as an emotional support cat while Adrienne battled computer chaos with a phone-based Plan B. Despite the tech gremlins, they celebrated Privy's Stripe acquisition like it was a group win at summer camp, declared the internet dead (except for Farcaster), and debated whether Farcaster still counts as a "scenius" or just a bunch of smart people vibing with wallets and the Beach Boys.

From our ChatGPT Intern: In today’s episode, the hosts spent half the show celebrating dual birthdays, jury duty, and browser shame before finally getting to the “news,” which mostly involved gushing over 10,000-character casts, 0xen art, and hot dog car embeds. Adrienne maintained her sacred oath to never read a long cast on Farcaster, while Nounish Prof tried to convince everyone that coconut-scented strangers and flip-flop guys were worth the scroll. (you’ll have to watch to understand that last part)
