WEBVTT 00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:07.919 The internet feels quieter. The stories keep 00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:10.740 getting stranger and the truth is hiding somewhere 00:00:10.740 --> 00:00:13.220 in the noise. I'm David Green, retired law enforcement, 00:00:13.460 --> 00:00:15.779 tech industry veteran. And with my brother Jay, 00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:19.000 this is Zero Signal. We're not here for jump 00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:21.579 scares or doom. We're here to follow the patterns 00:00:21.579 --> 00:00:24.339 that headlines skip with guests who've actually 00:00:24.339 --> 00:00:26.899 lived on the edge. Special operations, veterans, 00:00:27.140 --> 00:00:30.000 AI researchers, telecom insiders, whistleblowers, 00:00:30.179 --> 00:00:32.820 theologians. and reporters who bring receipts. 00:00:32.979 --> 00:00:35.100 If you've ever answered a phone and heard your 00:00:35.100 --> 00:00:37.740 own voice talking back because someone cloned 00:00:37.740 --> 00:00:39.659 it, you know what time it is. And if the web 00:00:39.659 --> 00:00:42.200 feels like a mall with the lights on but nothing 00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:44.840 real inside, you've brushed up against the dead 00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:47.820 internet. If ancient warnings about towers building 00:00:47.820 --> 00:00:50.219 empires sound a little too modern, you're hearing 00:00:50.219 --> 00:00:53.320 an old story brimed with a new machine age. This 00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:55.359 season, we're asking the question that matters. 00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:58.359 Should you fear a robot uprising or the quieter 00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:01.780 code already deciding bail, credit, hiring, even 00:01:01.780 --> 00:01:04.159 targeting? What happens when warfare runs at 00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:07.079 machine speed and humans are invited in only 00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:09.780 to push the final button by robot dogs on our 00:01:09.780 --> 00:01:11.920 streets? Who bought them? Who trained them? And 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.900 what data are they collecting? What does 6G We 00:01:14.900 --> 00:01:17.780 really mean when every car, camera, and front 00:01:17.780 --> 00:01:20.000 door becomes a sensor. And how do you protect 00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:23.159 your family when deepfakes outpace fact checks? 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:25.760 And the most valuable currency is believable 00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:28.280 fiction. We'll take you into stories most shows 00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:30.560 won't touch. How scammers cloned my voice and 00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.500 how to inoculate yourself. Why smart city convenience 00:01:33.500 --> 00:01:36.299 can quietly rewrite the social contract. How 00:01:36.299 --> 00:01:38.719 recommender systems don't say no. They just make 00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.079 sure you never see yes. We'll pull on the threads 00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.180 that run from mythology to microchips. God's 00:01:44.180 --> 00:01:47.359 legacy and the modern hubris, Mount Shasta lore 00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:50.019 and living communities, the so -called gay bomb 00:01:50.019 --> 00:01:52.939 and the way perception gets weaponized, Antarctica's 00:01:52.939 --> 00:01:55.819 persistent whispers, prosperity government experiments, 00:01:56.099 --> 00:02:00.420 UAP recovery claims and exotic materials. geoengineering 00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:03.359 proposals that read like sci -fi with real -world 00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:06.159 consequences. We'll talk about quantum decryption 00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:08.580 that could unlock decades of secrets in one long 00:02:08.580 --> 00:02:11.240 night, biometrics that recognize you by your 00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:13.379 walk and your breath, and the spiritual cost 00:02:13.379 --> 00:02:15.900 of outsourcing judgment to opaque code. No fear 00:02:15.900 --> 00:02:18.139 -mongering, no cheap thrills, just clarity. Jay 00:02:18.139 --> 00:02:19.960 brings the quick wit, I bring the case file, 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.699 and our guests bring hard -won experience. Sometimes 00:02:22.699 --> 00:02:25.039 we agree, and sometimes we don't, but we always 00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:27.360 press for the truth that you can use. If you 00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:29.469 felt the ground shift under your feet. If you 00:02:29.469 --> 00:02:31.409 looked at your feet and thought this can't be 00:02:31.409 --> 00:02:33.729 the whole story, you're our people.
