New episode! Dan & Phil return with a fresh episode of a podcast that did not get a visa to discuss World Cup stuff, but will anyway. There's some stuff to catch up on, the technical stuff you've come to expect from these erudite savants, like Miss Universe and Love Island. But also South Africa vs Mexico, and a deep dive into the SpaceX IPO and the state of AI and tech. Fun times. Enjoy!
