This week: Could the AI Bubble soon burst? Peter Thiel seems to think so, if we go by his recent stock sales.

This week, we connect the dots between Peter Thiel dumping his Nvidia (NVDA) stock, the race between Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos to build data centers in space, and the strange cultural moment where Joe Rogan praised Peter Thiel and Palantir while Theo Von asked the questions everyone else was thinking.

We also dig into the archives to see if Paulina Borsook's prediction of "Tech Fascism" is coming true.

Join JJ for the Weekly Lounge, a high-level breakdown of the week's most critical stories in Tech, Business, and the "Rogansphere”, that were featured on The John Johnston Lounge.

John Johnston (JJ) reacts to part of a recent video by Gil Duran from The Nerd Reich, in which he interviews author and journalist Paulina Borsook. Over 20 years ago, she published a book predicting the negative influence on politics of Silicon Valley tech billionaires. They refer to the likes of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Jeff Bezos, who I’ve been discussing in these terms in my own videos.
