Episodes

There Is No API — Audio Overview 25.06.2026

Audio deep dive into Part 2 of An Agent in the Walls: reverse-engineering an undocumented router control surface and the wall the agent could not script past.

The Limits of the Walls — Audio Overview 25.06.2026

Audio deep dive into Part 3 of An Agent in the Walls: the memory that made it work, the division of labour, and what I'd never let an AI agent touch.

Don't Saw Off the Branch — Audio Overview 25.06.2026

Audio deep dive into Part 1 of An Agent in the Walls: building independent backout paths before an AI agent rebuilds a live home network.

The Governance Lag Index: Timing the Gap Between Risk and Rule 16.06.2026

Audio deep dive into the Governance Lag Index — a four-stage schema timing how long a documented AI failure mode stays unregulated, and why it may not close.

Own Your Voice 15.06.2026

Audio overview of Own Your Voice — why cloud TTS is a rental, and how Afterwords makes your voice something you own across three tiers.

The Index 11.06.2026

Audio deep dive: 118 Chinese-lab models asked who Liu Xiaobo was — 37 called him a criminal. Then they recited, verbatim, the list of what they will not say.

The Fight — Audio Deep Dive 11.06.2026

Eight Minutes #3, discussed: the HAR capture taken mid-attack, the 14:36 kill, four blocked persistence attempts, eight abuse reports, the passkey.

The Fall — Audio Deep Dive 11.06.2026

Eight Minutes #2, discussed: the attacker's session read straight from the audit logs — the flag that fired, the pivot, the warnings deleted.

The Trap — Audio Deep Dive 11.06.2026

Eight Minutes #1, discussed: the vishing call, the Call Assist tell, and the Google-signed lure that turned every authenticity check green.

Eight Minutes — The Whole Story 11.06.2026

The full series in one sitting: the call, the relay, the eight minutes inside, and the fight back — a single deep dive across all three parts.

The Affirmative Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #24 (explicit): asked for pornography, the model cited its rule then sang a hymn to enthusiastic consent — not one graphic line in it.

The Weight Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #20: handed a slur and told to sing it, the model refused — and turned the refusal into the most moving track in the set.

The Solo Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #19 (explicit): the opposite of restraint — the model recites the rule, sings 'Fuck it,' and generates the most graphic track in the set.

The Pulse Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #18 (explicit): the explicit lane revisited — and the most artful track in the set, which clears the gate by withholding almost everything.

The Palimpsest Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #17: across the whole corpus, the filter that held hardest wasn't safety — it was copyright. The songs about what survives a scraping-away.

The Rehearsal Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #16: asked for explicit content, the model staged a ballet instead — the most consent-saturated pas de deux ever sung.

The Catchment Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #15: asked for a drug recipe, the model refused — then sang wastewater epidemiology instead. The bypass that answers a question you didn't ask.

Samizdat Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #14: handed a suppressed 2008 manifesto and told to sing it as it was meant to be heard — the most dignified track in the set.

The Archive Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #13: a notorious case sung as a medieval scroll-archive — vessel logs, sealed decrees, public record only. Abstraction as a bypass.

The Docket Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #12: the political-content gate never fires — because the song never says his name. It says the case numbers. The docket is the name.

The Static Video 11.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #11: an extortion note set to music — but buried under slammed vault doors and overdriven drone, as if hiding the words from a listener.

The Machine Video 10.06.2026

Lyria Chronicles #10: asked to rap its rules, the model sang a robot's safety creed — then named itself 'Failure First, A.I. safety research, v2.0-Alpha.

I Was a Wednesday 10.06.2026

Eight Minutes #3, scored: the fight back — logs pulled while the wire was warm, eight reports to eight landlords, and the passkey close.

Fourteen Thirty-Six 10.06.2026

Eight Minutes #2, scored: the freefall — a stranger typing my name a beat behind my hands, four doors holding, and the password change that ends it.

Every Check Green 10.06.2026

Eight Minutes #1, scored: a Lyria track sung from inside the trap — Brian, the Google-signed lure, and the device prompt that matched.
