Facebook gathers data on your emotional triggers, then uses algorithms to keep feeding you rage-inducing content so you stay on the platform longer and see more ads. Kennedy says this is the single biggest reason newspapers died, and a jury just awarded $6 million to a young woman whose mental health was destroyed by exactly this system.

Theo asks Kennedy what has fundamentally changed in America, why people have lost faith in the political system, and why the country seems to have lost the sense of shared purpose that defined his generation's upbringing. Kennedy's diagnosis is layered: social media allows people to say anonymously what they would never say to a face; the federal government has grown too large and interferes too much in daily life; the family unit has broken down; and America has become a less religious country. He is candid about his own faith — he has enormous doubts, he says, and when he prays he asks for faith itself. But he believes it helps to believe in something larger than yourself, and that the absence of that belief contributes to the rage and nihilism he sees in public life. He also raises the democratic socialist wing of the Democratic Party — Sanders, AOC, Mamdani, Plattner — as a political force that believes government, not free enterprise, should run the economy, and challenges anyone to name a country where socialism has worked.
Kennedy argues free enterprise has lifted more people out of poverty than all social programs combined, while socialism has failed everywhere it's been tried — Cuba, Argentina, the Soviet Union. He trusts the American people to run their own lives without a soul-crushing federal government.
With AI coding tools like Cursor, Bhanu replicates an existing free tool for a new keyword in under 5 minutes. What used to be a multi-day build is now a lunch-break task.
Ahrefs, SiteGPT, Cal.com, PostHog, Datafast, Sibyl AI, Bento, Feather, Featurepace, Mintlify, Cloud Code, ChartMogul — Bhanu runs his entire business solo with these 12 tools.
PropGPT runs on React Native with TypeScript and Python for ML, Neon for the database, RevenueCat and Superwall for monetization. LLM costs are $20/month, data APIs $100/month, and after $10K in monthly marketing spend, margins sit at roughly 50%.
Game apps keep users engaged long enough for ads to pay off. Tool apps don't — so if you're building a utility, ads are almost always the wrong call and subscriptions are your only real lever.
Inside SEO Bot, a single button labelled 'Boost My Domain Rating' routes users directly to Listing Bot. That one interaction converts a user of one tool into a user of two — without any marketing cost.
Directory listings are a powerful but underrated growth channel — but only if your product is genuinely interesting enough to earn the click. AI products have a natural advantage here because they're easy to package in a compelling, clickable way.
The fastest path to Twitter growth isn't volume — it's forming sharp opinions about how the platform works and sharing them immediately. People cluster around those who understand the rules and say so out loud.
Sam had no coding knowledge, so he used ChatGPT voice mode to generate his entire codebase and copy-pasted it into Notepad. A friend later introduced him to Cursor, and he never looked back.
Copy days of Discord chat history, paste it into ChatGPT, and ask it to list recurring pain points. The ones that come up most often are your best product bets.
