This episode of Quasar With Fries is jam-packed! Rich and Wayne stumbled upon a third host so that’s cool. Jon something. This newly-formed but temporary trio discusses how Meta’s Orion AR glasses stack-up to the incumbent—and, you know, actually available for purchase—Apple Vision Pro. To immerse or not to immerse!

The guys also discuss the scary privacy implications demonstrated by a couple of college students figuring out how to dox just about anyone using Meta Ray-Bans. Also on the docket is a breakup of Google’s monopoly of the online search engine and ad business.

But the real stars of this week’s show are discussions around popular media consumption. First up, the boys discuss the state of movie theaters, whether or not their demise is nigh, and what theater chains and movie studios should be doing to keep theaters around. The episode wraps up with a discussion of whether modern recording artists actually need record labels to be successful. Get into it!
