Summary
Rob Cesternino, Tyson Apostol, and Danny Bryson are back with another entertaining episode of News AF, where they dive into the week’s most peculiar and amusing stories.
News AF kicks off 2025 with Rob Cesternino, Tyson Apostol, and Danny Bryson diving into the quirkiest stories of the new year. From AI tables to the latest in dating trends, the hosts bring their unique humor and insights to the table.
The episode opens with a discussion on January’s reputation as a peak time for both new relationships and divorces. Dubbed “Dating Sunday,” the first Sunday of the year sees a surge in dating app activity, while the post-holiday season also marks a spike in divorce inquiries. The hosts humorously debate the financial strategy of breaking up before the holidays to avoid gift-giving obligations.
Next, the trio explores the latest tech from CES, including a bizarre AI table that can move around the house. Tyson and Danny question the practicality of such a device, imagining the chaos of a table wandering around at night. They also touch on North Korea’s ban on hot dogs, symbolizing a rejection of Western culture, and joke about rebranding hot dogs as health food with “vitamin-injected” versions.
Key points of interest:
– January’s dual role as a time for new relationships and divorces
– CES’s AI table that moves and changes height
– North Korea’s ban on hot dogs as a cultural statement
– The rise of “mush moms” who microdose mushrooms for relaxation
– A goat competition scandal involving alleged poisoning
The episode wraps up with Danny’s “bolt hole” segment, where he discusses the shift from cocaine to mushrooms among mothers seeking a more relaxed lifestyle. The hosts ponder the implications of these trends with their usual wit and humor.
