I’m Steven Vargas, and it will be my voice you will be hearing on all these blog posts and podcasts. The Lazy Geeks has been around for nearly fifteen years. The original podcast – still available – began in October of 2010. Our original mission statement was reporting news in gaming, technology, pop culture, and various other areas without all the clickbait content.
Back in 2023, we stopped recording the show. My original partner wanted to drift away from our original concept. I, however, wanted to continue it as a brand. I tried in 2024 to start a new podcast brand, The Gen-Xer Pod, but it felt that it was missing something.
When I would focus on certain topics, I felt other parts of me were being left behind. However, I have decided that there is no reason that I couldn’t do all of this. As the original 450+ episodes of The Lazy Geeks are still available online, I have decided that I will reboot that series and discuss topics that I want to.
Particularly telling news stories that are impacting our lives on a daily basis through social media, AI, and how free speech advocates don’t want free speech, they want freedom from consequence. Which isn’t covered in the constitution.
About Me is About the New Me
The Lazy Geeks podcast that has been running since 2010 will give you news stories that aren’t talked about as much but are pretty important. As well as some major stories that the mainstream media and social media are leaving out some very important information that will help shape your view of what you are seeing and hearing.
There will be some other stories that will be originals. More opinion pieces about not understanding some of the stuff you are seeing online. A lot of it will cover “why does this matter” or in some instance “noticing of certain actions”. This will allow me to give my view on this from a rational perspective asking the question “why does this mean so much to YOU”. Not society in general but you. As in, how does this shape your life in general?
I hope you join me in marking 2025 in a new direction in my life. Hopefully, there will be enough content to keep you coming back.
Thanks for stopping by.
