Hogging seats on a crowded train, not saying excuse me, watching videos on your phone with no headphones in. Sometimes it feels like we don't know how to act anymore.

New episodes Sundays wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the week from ProfG Media, where we break down what mattered and what it all means. I'm George Hahn and it's Friday, July 10th. Today, the government wants a piece of open AI. Then, America turns 250 and can't seem to enjoy the party.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (18 minutes, 2,734 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.
No account needed, we create one from your checkout email. With credits it is 1 credit; packs start at 10 episodes for $5, and monthly plans are cheaper still.
