GLM 5.2 Clearly Explained (and how to set it up)
In this episode I sit down with Amir to get tactical about running local AI models as part of a daily workflow. We center on GLM 5.2 from ZAI, how it stacks up against frontier models like Opus 4.8, and how a fusion approach lets you sequence a heavy thinking model with a lighter execution model for the best output at the lowest cost. Amir walks through setup in Cursor and Codex via OpenRouter, shares real token-cost math, and demos GLM 5.2 refining a live app. By the end you will know how to start…
Making $$ with IOS apps
In this episode I sit down with George Lampropoulos, a 19-year-old founder who turns AI-built mobile apps into real revenue. George walks through his framework for reaching $10K a month—roughly $333 a day—starting with a simple, sellable idea you actually care about and ending with a distribution plan anyone can run. He shares the numbers behind WrestleAI (100K-plus downloads and close to $200K in revenue) and explains why a sharp "gotcha feature" and a clean Instagram funnel do most of the heavy…

Codex Sites Clearly Explained (and how to use it)
In this solo episode I walk through Codex Sites end to end, building a real internal tool live so you can copy the exact workflow.

Along the way I cover memory and persistent storage, safe actions, Codex skills, save-gates, and proving the loop so the app updates autonomously. The core promise: by the end you know how to ship a Codex Site that an agent keeps operating…
