Most kids aren't scared of AI. But they are learning from it — fast.
This episode isn’t about fear. It’s about access, context, and what gets lost when critical thinking takes a back seat.
Juan Faisal talks with Kyle-Prescott Ogunbase, AI educator and product strategist, about the real gap in AI education. From coding Pac-Man in grade school to building Agbara Life, Kyle shares what “knowledge deserts” reveal about the next digital divide — and why curiosity still matters more than prompt templates.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
