Is the Metaverse dead or just waiting for its moment? 🥽💀

Jack Austin and Adam Garcia dive into virtual reality's broken promises in this hilarious episode of Temporarily Scripted.

From Meta's $70 BILLION losses to Apple's Vision Pro flop, we explore why the "next internet" never showed up - and whether it's coming back to haunt us.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why you're still poor in the digital world (virtual diamonds, anyone?)
• The $3,500 headset that made you look like you're doing "YMCA with a brain disease"
• How to smell ancient Egypt (spoiler: you don't want to)
• Virtual strip clubs for team building (HR approved!)
• Why Second Life is now just "First Life" for proper losers
• The dystopian future where you're mining digital diamonds while everyone else has yachts

From Tudor England VR tours to the inevitable return of office meetings (but virtual), we examine whether the Metaverse is humanity's next frontier or just another tech bro fever dream.

Moments that killed us:

🎯 Digital bandits stealing your digital diamonds on the way to buy a digital yacht

🎯 The Stephen Seagal martial arts training for hijacked planes

🎯 Eric Cartman's bathroom bucket scenario (you know the one)

🎯 Why men over 40 don't need friends OR the Metaverse

🎯 "£37.99 for the Adam-verse" - ski mask and iPhone included

"I don't have space in my life for new friends right now" - The most middle-aged thing ever said about the Metaverse.

Whether you lost money on Metaverse land or just lost faith in Zuckerberg's vision, this conversation cuts through 51 minutes of "why did we talk about this?" to find the comedy gold.

Next week: Health & Wellness for middle-aged men (or "punishments from childhood that are now your wellness routine")
