Show Notes
Eoin Higgins returns to the show to discuss his new book “Owned: How Tech Billionaires on the Right Bought the Loudest Voices On the Left.” We talk about how tech and Silicon Valley figures like Peter Thiel, Marc Andreesen and Elon Musk have used their vast wealth and influence to sway the political and ideological leanings of prominent independent writers. You can pre-order the book here. Our most recent premium episode for paid subscribers examines DeepSeek and the race for AI. Kylie Robison of the Verge was a great guest and we confirmed that she is, in fact, a gamer. That episode is available here: https://www.insurgentspod.com/p/ep-345-what-is-deepseek-ft-kylie
