Bad Bets
Welcome to Bad Bets—the podcast where we make bold, uninformed, and entirely fake wagers on everything from sports to pop culture, nerdom, and history. Let’s learn little about a lot… I promise I won’t ask you to name three deep cuts from the band on your favorite tee.

Nick Blaine Deserved Better (And So Does Your Non-AI Wife, Chad)
This week on Bad Bets, we scream into the dystopian void about Nick Blaine’s unjust downfall in The Handmaid’s Tale, ask why Serena Joy keeps getting girlboss redemption arcs, and argue that June and Nick were mirrors, not moral opposites. Plus, we dive into the weird future of emotionally cheating on your wife with ChatGPT and why Sam Fender is the poet laureate of post-avoidant grief.
Our bet this week? Someone’s gonna try to marry their AI girlfriend by next year.
No, really. Mark your calendars.
