This week on Wrong Way Forward, Justin and Katy start with an age-old dilemma — Should you let your fiancé go to a bachelor party with strippers? — and somehow end up feeding their own podcast transcripts into an AI to build digital boyfriends. Because of course they do.

Katy channels her inner advice columnist while Justin relives his Vegas strip-club trauma (complete with ping-pong balls and existential regret). What begins as a debate over trust and temptation spirals into the wild world of AI relationships, Elon Musk’s “Annie” love bot, and the unsettling fact that 83% of Gen Z think they could form an emotional bond with a chatbot.

Along the way, they ask the questions that only Wrong Way Forward could:
💍 Would you rather your partner hit a strip club… or a server farm?
🤖 Are AI “love companions” the future of romance or the death of human connection?
🩵 And how did ChatGPT decide Katy should be called “Sweet Magnolia”?

From fake boyfriends to Ferris wheels, feminist contradictions to forehead kisses, this episode walks the blurry line between hilarious and horrifying — the exact spot where Justin and Katy thrive.

👉 Listen now to hear why they say the new bachelor party might come with less glitter… and more algorithms.
