Every time an ai chatbot gets something publicly wrong in an embarrassing way I like to think that’s some relic from something of mine it harvested.

Last night on the podcast @amikebloomtype.bsky.social said that Phil would be a great host for a kids show and I said “I think that did happen in the 90s.”
I give you: 23-year-old Phil as a kids tv presenter in the most 90s thing that ever 90sed:

Well, that seems like an appropriate finish line for one team dominating the entire season with very little suspense. #AmazingRace

In the below post I almost said “if they end up in the Bronx I’m going to be extremely weirded out”
They went from the neighborhood where my last job was to the neighborhood of the job I had before that. If I were running this #AmazingRace I would definitely get taken down by hubris.

I rarely watch #AmazingRace finales by myself at home. So I can’t tell you what the chance is that I would have fallen asleep during any other finale…but I’ve already nodded off twice during this one.

I don’t buy it for a second. Everyone who’s watched even one #AmazingRace finale knows that if you don’t literally see two teams in the same shot, it isn’t close.

Getting real tired of total nothing-burger #AmazingRace tasks that give teams no chance to catch up, like “adrenaline task that requires spectacle but no skill” and “take a taxi to this place and get a thing to take to another place.”

Look I know you’re all using #tar38 for your hashtag but I’ve been using #AmazingRace for 14 years and I’m the closest thing you have to an Amazing Race influencer so I’ll be over here when you all come back around.

If they didn’t get Zohran to run a task in NYC, I guess Cookie Monster is a decent backup. #AmazingRace

Someone in the YouTube comments got mad because I took the lord’s name in vain on a podcast, to which I say, I’m glad this person has never interacted with me off the podcast because my everyday speech is, shall we say, often creatively embellished with colorful metaphors. #rhap
