About this listen

In this episode of A-Squared Ramblers, hosts Alex and Adriana reconnect as Alex broadcasts from his makeshift holiday studio back in Nevada. He recaps a whirlwind week of Nashville Nights—from hidden Christmas pop-up bars and woo-girl karaoke chaos to rooftop dancing and an ill-advised yet glorious 2 a.m. corn dog.

Adriana brings her own twist of holiday magic with a wild small-town serendipity story: her childhood friend and her college friend, who have never met and live in completely different states, randomly strike up a conversation at a pizzeria - all because of their connection to her.

But the festive energy shifts as the hosts dive into the rising AI cheating wars sweeping schools and colleges. They explore false plagiarism flags from grammar tools, unsuspecting students getting burned by sketchy “free AI helpers,” and the real tension this creates for teachers, districts, and academic integrity.

It’s cozy, chaotic, nostalgic, and timely. Everything that makes A-Squared Ramblers exactly what it is.
