Have you ever heard of the Australian childhood game of Brandy?
In Episode #237 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: why the Dere Dortals are feeling dusty (aka, hungover), the popular Squid Game show, turning Brandy into tennis balls with acid, Red Rover come over, how explaining things simply is quite difficult, some thoughts on how a dispassionate artificial intelligence could be beneficial to humanity, if we have the capability to make a high stakes choice and the infamous boostagram time. Also we now have a discord, come check it out!
