In this episode of the Insanely Great Podcast, Christopher Weeks and DJ Moore tackle gym etiquette in the age of TikTok, the trillion-dollar race between Nvidia and Anthropic, the global RAM shortage that's about to mess up your next Mac order, and what Apple actually has to prove at WWDC after their $256M AI settlement.

Along the way: iOS 26.5's new RCS encryption (and why you probably won't see it work), Chris Pirillo's vibe-coded Signal Flare project for getting your social accounts back, Meta secretly training AI on its own employees, a Nvidia robot running on under 4 billion parameters, and the time Chris's daughter caught him using AI to write her an apology.
