About this episode
The episode discusses various topics including Zionism, bike design, and a controversial online rant.
Recording shortly before Cori deletes his X account , the Dorx discuss chometz , pre- Pesach purging, and locking breakfast cereal in the basement. Nina feels “more Zionist than usual” and Cori criticizes Israel. Then Nina nerds out on recumbent bike history and describes the DREAM BIKE she is finally designing, dropping names like Craig Calfee , Gardner Martin , Fast Freddy Markham , Tom Teesdale , and AD Carson , while only hinting at frame-builder she’s collaborating with, Davis Carver . Cori wakes up from his nap and recalls searching “Death Before Detransition” on BlueSky , finding an unhinged rant by a “Silence-of-the-Lambs-level crazy” trans-identified male and likely future mass shooter (audio included). Plus: the Troon-to-Jew Pipeline, front- and back-end geometries, connecting supply chains with a jackshaft, Joscha Bach , Detransition Awareness Day , LiDAR , and Cori’s Substack . Jesus!
