Summary

Kevin Clancy, better known as KFC, is one of the original voices of Barstool Sports and former host of KFC Radio. In this conversation, we break down how technology and AI are quietly reshaping everyday life — from self-driving cars, surveillance camera, Neuralink, humanoid robots, and AI catching medical mistakes doctors missed. We also get into the affordability crisis facing younger generations, the wild early days of Barstool, and why scarce assets like bitcoin and gold still matter in a world of abundance.
