Chris Merrill kicks off the show with KFI’s Mark Rahner, joking about AI coming for everyone’s job—while warning that the younger generation may be the ones who feel it most. Chris also celebrates the massive success of KFI’s 15th Annual PastaThon and revisits the emotional, long-awaited return of KFI legend The Foosh at last night’s broadcast.
Then the conversation turns to the now-viral Waymo clip: an autonomous car casually turning left through an active police standoff. Chris questions what “accountability” even means when there’s no human behind the wheel, and breaks down the difference between programming, thinking, logic… and the absence of common sense. Plus: a quick roast of AI’s obsession with em dashes.
Chris then shifts to a disturbing local story—an LA family suing the school district after an alleged “kissing club” incident involving their 8-year-old daughter—and dives into the broader culture of silence that enables abuse. The hour closes with a tribute to K-9 officer Spike, who was tragically killed in the line of duty.
