🎙️ This week on the Random Waypoints Podcast, we dive into the stories everyone is talking about — from the viral spectacle and backlash surrounding the Met Gala, to the deadly cruise ship virus outbreak raising serious global containment questions. We also look back at the legacy of media titan Ted Turner and how he changed modern news forever.
We break down the growing AI power race and what it could mean for America’s future, discuss whether mapping apps and shared GPS routes are destroying the spirit of overlanding, and debate major political and geopolitical questions involving the Supreme Court, gas prices, the U.S./European relationship, and the changing value of nations like Norway compared to the United Kingdom.
🔥 Topics include AI infrastructure, media influence, overlanding culture, geopolitics, energy, political strategy, and global instability.
