  <description>For our first show of 2026 Adam looks at the efficacy of Infant Simulator Programs, which involves giving a fake baby to high school kids to discourage teen pregnancy. Darren gives us a review of three books, “The Thinking Machine: Jensen Huang, Nvidia, and the World’s Most Coveted Microchip” by Stephen Witt, “The Philosopher in the Valley: Alex Karp, Palantir, and the Rise of the Surveillance State” by Michael Steinberger and “Peak Human: What We Can Learn From History’s Greatest Civilizations” by Johan Norberg. </description>
