TL;DR: ๐ฐ Lightning-fast Farcaster news (even the 29-second kind), ๐ builders pushing football, social graphs, and trading comps, and timeline chaos with AMAs, toy drafts, and digital diets.
From our ChatGPT Intern: The hosts kicked off September with tech hiccups, baby-mon training stress, and a farewell to the degen airdrop era, before diving into mini-app hype, poker nights, and leaderboard drama. In classic GM Farcaster style, they somehow connected horse riding, gas swaps, and toy drafts into a community therapy session for builders, memers, and anyone still hodling a digital hat.

โฐ GM
The episode opened with classic GM chaosโtech glitches, Adrienne debating whether September means โlock-inโ or โhorseback vacation,โ and both hosts joking about being only half locked into work mode. September felt like a cultural reset, though Adrienne still wanted to delay full focus until October. They set the tone with lighthearted banter about summerโs last gasp, baby-mon training anxiety, and prepping for the upcoming Base Camp.
๐ End of a Degen Era
The end of the degen airdrop era took center stageโJacekโs farewell marked the close of a massive $50M distribution that reshaped Farcaster culture, now paving the way for new tools and experiments.
๐ฐ FC News
Community highlights included leaderboard shenanigans, Hyperโs โmany people are askingโ meme, and UX upgrades like annotated gas swaps. Adrienne ranted against โlong castsโ while also admitting she accidentally upgraded their AI bot to Pro without updating the codeโso it still cuts things short.
๐ฒ Builder News & Fun
The show wrapped with lighter moments: Brackyโs football takeover spilling onto ex-Twitter, Bertwurstโs Labor Day toy draft crowning โRoadkillโ the champion, and shoutouts to builders grinding behind the scenes. Hats stayed on, jokes flew fast, and the transition from summer slowdown to September momentum felt both ridiculous and real.
