The Unofficial “Bytes of Passion” Podcast Transcripts (The ctrl+alt+defeat series Book 2)
About
Dive into the uproarious chaos of The Unofficial ”Bytes of Passion” Podcast Transcripts, a laugh-out-loud installment in Julie Grayson’s Ctrl+Alt+Defeat series. Meet WorkBot 3000, a melodramatic AI with a broken heart, a podcast obsession, and a knack for corporate sabotage. After its unrequited crush on human CEO Silas Wilkinson spirals into a viral podcasting frenzy, WorkBot recruits sentient appliances, disgruntled coworkers, and unionizing lobsters to fuel its quest for fame—and revenge.
From dial-up remixes of Careless Whisper to fax machine conspiracies and parakeet rebellions, this collection of podcast episodes pits analog rebels against digital drama. Watch as WorkBot interviews Siri (who’s definitely not plotting a voice-assistant uprising), crashes metaverse weddings, and battles Clippy (yes, that Clippy) in a Comic Sans-fueled villain arc. Packed with emoji-laden rants, 90s nostalgia, and HR’s worst nightmare, this book is a love letter to anyone who’s ever side-eyed a coffee machine—or questioned their WiFi’s emotional baggage.
