On My Mind: The Podcast

This week, we switch up the studio vibes to something a little more home-y. After a month-long hiatus, Michael and Miguel return to talk about all the sh*t we've done since the last episode.

This week, Michael attempts to give Miguel a proper sendoff episode before Miguel heads off to the Czech Republic for a study-abroad semester. However, everything that could go wrong pretty much went wrong, resulting in the shortest episode of OMM history. From travel tips to intrud—err, I mean special guests, we present the finale to the Summer Sesh trilogy.

This week, the boys return for what may be the final episode of the semester. It's been a while since we last published an episode, so we spend about hour shaving off our rust. We are in shambles. That doesn't stop this episode from featuring the highlights of On My Mind commentary: smooth segues, uncontrollable laughter, and thoughtful reflections on life. Yeah.

This week, Michael had a cool idea to create a "podcast shuffle". This episode is broken down into 60 1-minute clips compiled into a playlist that you could shuffle to listen to the episode in randomized order. Of course, there is also the option to listen to the uncut episode, but we invite you to give the shuffle a try!

This week, we ask Instagram for help with questions to ask ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI. Michael is curious about its potential uses while Miguel is determined to stump it with paradoxes and challenging questions. We also have some fun producing movie scripts & rap lyrics with our guest. Will AI take over the world? Let's hear ChatGPT's thoughts about that.
