From live-streamed poker controversy in 2022 to last month’s massive DoJ indictment involving mobsters, NBA figures, and rigged shufflers, the guys explore how high-tech tampering has changed the cheating landscape.OpenDEALT - Official Trailer [HD]SegmentBringing Down the House (book) - WikipediaCard counting - WikipediaThe Incomprehensible Scale of 52!Ben Joffe |Ice Code DecksHackers Rig Casino Card-Shuffling Machines for ‘Full Control’ Cheating | WIREDHow Hacked Card Shufflers Allegedly Enabled a Mob-Fueled Poker Scam That Rocked the NBA | WIREDClose⁠Ocean's Eleven (2001) Official Trailer⁠The Sting Official Trailer #1 - Paul Newman, Robert Redford Movie (1973) HDSend us a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠voice message⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

In this episode of Nonsense, we dive into a wild set of headlines: China’s Tiangong space station faces a genuine space-junk emergency as three astronauts are left without a safe ride home. Meanwhile, SpaceX-built spy satellites are quietly beaming signals in frequencies they’re not supposed to, raising international eyebrows. Back on Earth, a newly mutated H3N2 flu strain is hitting the Northern Hemisphere early and hard, threatening to overwhelm hospitals. And in San Francisco, a tragic Waymo robotaxi incident reignites the fight over who controls AVs—local communities or state regulators.All that, plus the uncomfortable question: how safe are robotaxis really?Three astronauts are stuck on China’s space station without a safe ride home - Ars TechnicaUS spy satellites built by SpaceX send signals in the “wrong direction” - Ars TechnicaThis flu season looks grim as H3N2 emerges with mutations - Ars TechnicaHere's Why San Francisco Can't Stop Waymo From Killing Your Cat | PCMagSend us a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠voice message⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

From its discovery in Chile to its high-speed sprint through the Solar System, we break down how telescopes on Earth, in space, and even around Mars managed to catch this fast-moving cosmic visitor - and why its wild 61+ km/s velocity and hyperbolic orbit leave no doubt it came from another star.Along the way, we unpack the growing controversy around its behavior. Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb is once again arguing that the comet’s odd non-gravitational motion doesn’t add up, hinting at something more exotic, while most astronomers say it’s simply a volatile-rich interstellar snowball outgassing in strange but explainable ways.Join us on this episode to explore the science, the speculation, and why these rare visitors spark so much imagination - especially for the next generation of stargazers.SegmentDunning–Kruger effect - WikipediaDid 3I/ATLAS Just Break-Up Near the Sun? | by Avi LoebA Complex Jet Structure Emanates from 3I/ATLAS After Perihelion | by Avi Loeb | Nov, 2025The First Radio Signal From Comet 3I/Atlas Ends the Debate About Its Nature | WIREDAvi LoebIs the Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Alien Technology?How to Follow the Trajectory of Comet 3I/Atlas | WIREDAs the Government Shutdown Ends, Can NASA Please Release the 40-Day-Old HiRISE Images of 3I/ATLAS? | by Avi LoebComet 3I/ATLAS - NASA ScienceOrbital eccentricity - WikipediaNew 'nearly interstellar' comet, wrongly linked to 3I/ATLAS, will reach its closest point to Earth on Tuesday (Nov. 11) | Live ScienceMonty Python's Galaxy Song with Updated Lyrics | Space and Universe Anthem|CloseOperation Space Station | NOVA | PBSDeep Impact (1998) Teaser TrailerSend us a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠voice message⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
