  • IM SO BUMMED

    This alleged AI movie review podcast fooled me. I hate that I actually enjoyed it too. UGH now that I think about it, the hosts were just too succinct and the delivery too perfect and their takes perfectly middle ground to be a human conversation. I just assumed it was scripted and heavily edited. What a scary world we live in.
