Algorithms of Addiction | 01-28-26

Join Lionel on The Other Side of Midnight for a broadcast that swings wildly from high-stakes legal battles to the neuroscience of footwear. This episode begins with a “Big Tobacco” moment for Big Tech, as Lionel and Lynn Shaw expose the addictive algorithms and AI toys threatening children. The conversation shifts to a war on the decline of the English language, the “fear-mongering” behind the Doomsday Clock, and why politicians like Eric Adams need to stop playing “dress-up” in emergency jackets. Broadcasting from a studio cold enough to “hang meat,” Lionel tackles the neuroscience of duck boots, the conspiracy theories filling the public trust void, and the existence of Tom McAn. Finally, he dissects a “constitutional stunt” in Minneapolis regarding immigration, demands a RICO task force for Antifa, and recounts the gritty history of the East Village cannibal.
