About this episode
Kevin’s 82 days sober. Alex has a new audio toy. And Grok AI thinks “Hitler” is still trending (yikes). This week on Diggnation, we unpack Bitcoin conspiracies, Commodore nostalgia, and why Americans have forgotten how to party. Also: Nanoblocks, nude bowling, and a startup so weird Google only bought the humans. It’s retro futurism, digital privacy, and a kitchen remodel.Merch store is open! swag.digg.com⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Intro and Welcome 01:13 Justin, CEO of Digg.com Joins 03:04 Kevin's Sobriety Update and "Hooch" Mention 04:08 Kevin's Nanoblocks Hobby 08:10 Alex's Kitchen Remodel and Wine Cellar 11:32 Lossless Audio Streaming with Wiim Ultra 16:53 Digg.com Merchandise & Dark Mode Launch 19:28 Digg.com Desktop Beta & Community Feedback 23:56 Bitcoin Hits All-Time High 25:15 Satoshi Wallet Movement & China Conspiracy 31:58 Bitcoin Holding Strategy & Dollar-Cost Averaging 39:49 Commodore 64 Relaunch & Retro Futurism 41:44 First Computer Memories 46:59 Childhood Pranks & 900 Numbers 50:54 Reviving Old Tech Companies (Claude AI Ideas) 52:41 Grok AI Controversy: Returns "Hitler" 57:38 AI, Misinformation, and Source Truth 1:01:04 Re-testing Grok: "Universe Seeker of Truth" 1:03:59 Why AI Defaults to "Bad" / Human Entitlement 1:14:49 Americans Don't Party Enough & "Netflix and Chill" 1:19:11 Call to Action: Throw More Parties 1:27:05 Windsurf Acquisition by Google & Cognition 1:30:37 The Value of Individual AI Talent & Non-Competes 1:32:55 Nude Bowling & Nudism Discussion Polycade Marquee – Want to see your custom Polycade marquee featured on the show?
