Join us on the Full Scoop Podcast as Alan, Jhonny, and Ben dive into the bizarre world of New Jersey's latest aerial obsession - mysterious drones that have everyone from local cops to conspiracy theorists scratching their heads! We'll break down the wildest footage, share some hilarious community reactions, and try to figure out if we're dealing with secret government spy tech, UFOs, or just a bunch of people who've had too much coffee. From "definitely aliens" to "probably just Amazon testing their new delivery drones," we're covering all the theories - no matter how crazy they might sound. Plus, we'll explore why social media is turning everyone into amateur drone detectives and why you probably shouldn't trust that blurry video your uncle shared on Facebook.

Join us today on the Fool Scoop as we take a look back on the greatest achievement in the history of mankind: the moon landing. We look at what would’ve happened if it went wrong and who gets left out once again. We also explore the concept of sondering. Are we all just NPCs? Or can everyone be the center of their own universe? And what does it mean for society?

Immoral Machines (Cut for Time)

In this episode, the gang looks back on the history of music and file sharing. From the stone age days of Napster through the viral minefield of Kazza and Limewire. Additionally, we also tackle all sorts of “isms” as we work through the “Man or Bear (and not the Man-Bear-Pig monstrosity)” “Trolley” and “AI Morality” thought experiments. Is there a racial discrimination in our technologies, or have we imbued our machines with our own biases? Are we human? Or are we moral? Tune in to see how our choices can impact the advancement of A.I. We also take a more lighthearted look at streaking and the age old cats vs dogs debate.
