The Video Game Industry is in Crisis with Jason Schreier - 283 Adam Conover 2024-10-16 | The video game industry is raking in more money than ever, but it's also in complete crisis. In the past couple of years, we've seen countless development studios shuttered and tens of thousands of workers laid off, all while the cost of making and buying games keeps skyrocketing. How did one of the world's most successful industries end up in such a state of instability? This week, Adam sits down with Jason Schreier, a Bloomberg reporter covering the video game industry and author of Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment, to break it all down.

The Menswear Guy Speaks! with Derek Guy - 282 Adam Conover 2024-10-09 | Fashion is one of the most overlooked ways we express ourselves. What we wear tells stories about our time, place, class, gender, and so much more. So, it’s a real shame that fashion—especially men’s fashion—often gets brushed off as frivolous or dismissed (wrongfully) as “too feminine.” This week, Adam chats with menswear writer and Twitter icon Derek Guy about the fascinating history of men’s fashion and where we stand in today’s style landscape.SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: adamconover.net/tourdatesSUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAbout Headgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creating premium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy to achieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.

Coupled with the recently discovery that hundreds of millions of other planets exist in the "habitable zone" of their stars, it’s becoming increasingly likely that we’re not alone in the universe. While finding extraterrestrial life would be one of the most groundbreaking scientific achievements ever, the ongoing search is already shedding light on our own origins and place in the cosmos.

WTF did the Supreme Court Just Do with Leah Litman and Kate Shaw of Strict Scrutiny - 269 Adam Conover 2024-07-10 | The latest round of Supreme Court decisions will radically reshape America as we know it. From overturning the Chevron decision and stripping federal agencies of their ability to do their jobs, to giving presidents broad immunity for actions that would otherwise be considered criminal, it can be hard to fully grasp the impact of these rulings, both immediately and in the future. This week, Adam speaks with Leah Litman and Kate Shaw, law professors and hosts of the podcast "Strict Scrutiny," to make sense of how the Supreme Court has sold out our future and what, if anything, can be done to restore the court to its proper function.SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: adamconover.net/tourdatesSUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAbout Headgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creating premium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy to achieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.

The A.I. Bubble is Bursting with Ed Zitron Adam Conover 2024-07-03 | Big tech is betting tens of billions of dollars on AI being the next big thing, but what if it isn't? ChatGPT burns obscene amounts of cash daily with little return, Google's AI dispenses useless and sometimes dangerous advice, and a recent study showed that tech companies will soon run out of new training data to improve their AI models. If AI is really so costly, unreliable, and limited, what happens to the industry that has bet so big on it? This week, Adam talks with journalist and influential tech critic Ed Zitron of wheresyoured.at to discuss the impending burst of the AI bubble, the hubris of Silicon Valley, and how we suffer under big tech's "Rot Economy."SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: adamconover.net/tourdatesSUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAbout Headgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creating premium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy to achieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.

How Contrapoints Reinvented Philosophy for YouTube with Natalie Wynn - 267 Adam Conover 2024-06-26 | Since 2016, Natalie Wynn has been making wildly popular video essays on YouTube under the name ContraPoints. Her videos, which cover everything from politics, to gender, to society's obsession with the apocalypse, gracefully distill academia-level research into insightful and highly digestible packages. Despite winning a Peabody award and holding a master’s degree in philosophy, Natalie proudly calls herself a YouTuber. Is this a new form of media? One that eschews the conventional structure of academia to bring university level discourse to anyone with an internet connection. This week, Adam chats with Natalie Wynn about gender, conspiracies, and the evolving role of academia in the digital age.SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: adamconover.net/tourdatesSUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAbout Headgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creating premium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy to achieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.

Your Houseplants Can Think with Zoë Schlanger - 265 Adam Conover 2024-06-12 | Our understanding of intelligence is always growing, but recent research has thrown a fascinating curveball: we're discovering that plants are intelligent too. Though they might not look like creatures we typically describe as intelligent, plants can store information, solve problems, and develop complex social networks. This week, Adam sits with Zoë Shlanger, author of The Light Eaters: How the Unseen World of Plant Intelligence Offers a New Understanding of Life on Earth, to explore this galaxy-brain concept of plant intelligence and what it means for how we see all life and our place in the world.
