Summary

Fickle Pickle prompts a discussion about AGI and non-human minds. Oz shares a concern about companies making burner credit cards. In a beautifully-written letter, Drop Kick recounts his first-hand experiences sailing the Red Sea -- and how this gave him a perspective most people may be missing as the Stuff They Don't Want You To Know builds toward war in the region. All this and more in this week's listener mail segment.
