Welcome to Ink vs Algorithm: The Writers' Pod, where flesh-and-blood writers face off against the machine age. Hosted by Mookie Spitz, himself a novelist, blogger, and ranter, this show dives headfirst into the creative chaos of 2025: an era where everyone’s consuming content, yet fewer seem to care who actually made it.
Each episode brings conversations with his fellow writers, journalists, novelists, publicists, creators, and discerning readers fighting to keep human storytelling alive in a world flooded by AI-generated slop. From the craft of writing to the crisis of attention, from the beauty of language to the blunt reality that most online words are now written by code, Ink vs Algorithm asks the only question that matters: Can the human voice still cut through the noise?
Whether you’re a writer using AI as a research tool or a reader trying to tell real from synthetic, the podcast is irreverent, and unapologetically human.
