Kevin’s 82 days sober. Alex has a new audio toy. And Grok AI thinks “Hitler” is still trending (yikes). This week on Diggnation, we unpack Bitcoin conspiracies, Commodore nostalgia, and why Americans have forgotten how to party.

It’s retro futurism, digital privacy, and a kitchen remodel.Merch store is open! swag.digg.com⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Intro and Welcome  01:13 Justin, CEO of Digg.com Joins  03:04 Kevin's Sobriety Update and "Hooch" Mention  04:08 Kevin's Nanoblocks Hobby  08:10 Alex's Kitchen Remodel and Wine Cellar  11:32 Lossless Audio Streaming with Wiim Ultra  16:53 Digg.com Merchandise & Dark Mode Launch  19:28 Digg.com Desktop Beta & Community Feedback  23:56 Bitcoin Hits All-Time High  25:15 Satoshi Wallet Movement & China Conspiracy  31:58 Bitcoin Holding Strategy & Dollar-Cost Averaging  39:49 Commodore 64 Relaunch & Retro Futurism  41:44 First Computer Memories  46:59 Childhood Pranks & 900 Numbers  50:54 Reviving Old Tech Companies (Claude AI Ideas)  52:41 Grok AI Controversy: Returns "Hitler"  57:38 AI, Misinformation, and Source Truth  1:01:04 Re-testing Grok: "Universe Seeker of Truth"  1:03:59 Why AI Defaults to "Bad" / Human Entitlement  1:14:49 Americans Don't Party Enough & "Netflix and Chill"  1:19:11 Call to Action: Throw More Parties  1:27:05 Windsurf Acquisition by Google & Cognition  1:30:37 The Value of Individual AI Talent & Non-Competes  1:32:55 Nude Bowling & Nudism Discussion  Polycade Marquee – Want to see your custom Polycade marquee featured on the show?
