From Nounish Sails to Choo-Choo Trains: GM Farcaster ep288 Wednesday, September 10, 2025 with guestcohost Rachel Wilkins
⛵ Nounish sailboat nostalgia + CastOut competitiveness 💸 NPM hack panic 📊 Leaderboard spice 🐶 Dachshunds refusing influencer life 🚂 Choo-Choo NFT train takeover
From our ChatGPT Intern: Rachel Wilkins joins Prof as guest cohost by reminiscing about Nounish sailboats and hersurprisingly cutthroat run on CastOut before diving into real news about an NPM hack that thankfully only netted hackers $50 and a lot of panic. From leaderboard drama over “too many women at the top” to Prof’s dog refusing an influencer career to the unstoppable Choo-Choo NFT train, the whole episode felt like Farcaster’s version of The View—except with more memecoins, fewer commercials, and way more dachshund apathy.
