CoralApp aims to allow users to experience wellness and fitness in person and in the Metaverse – powered by blockchain technology!

Meet Bunmi! 

Bunmi Babajide isn’t your typical health startup founder. She comes from a design engineering, product manufacturing and management consulting background and has enjoyed spending the past 16 years working in the automotive, aerospace and chemical industries for the public and private sector. 

Babajide earned her PhD in engineering education from Purdue University.

Bunmi’s story into the world of Web 3.0 start-ups began a few years ago when she was pregnant with her first child. She wanted to track her health. She found a few apps but each one was missing something to give her and her medical team a full and accurate picture.

In March 2022, Bunmi decided to take the leap away from her engineering background to focus her entire efforts on changing the way we will all track, monitor and monetize our health data. She took a leap into the fast-paced world of Web 3.0 and launched a health and wellness startup.


On this show, we discuss:

🩺 Using blockchain technology to own, monetize and incentivize health-care data and tracking

💰How and where to apply for grants to fund your web3 startup

🤰🏻Building as a mompreneur

🤖 The role of AI in healthcare, wellness and web3 technologies 


We end with a two-minute mindfulness exercise! :)

SCOTUScast - Gonzalez v. Google LLC – Post-Argument SCOTUScast

On February 21, 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in Gonzalez v. Google LLC.

After U.S. citizen Nohemi Gonzalez was killed by a terrorist attack in Paris, France, in 2015, Gonzalez’s father filed an action against Google, Twitter, and Facebook. Mr. Gonzalez claimed that Google aided and abetted international terrorism by allowing ISIS to use YouTube for recruiting and promulgating its message. At issue is the platform’s use of algorithms that suggest additional content based on users’ viewing history. Additionally, Gonzalez claims the tech companies failed to take meaningful action to counteract ISIS’ efforts on their platforms.

The district court granted Google’s motion to dismiss the claim based on Section 230(c)(1) of the Communications Decency Act, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed. The question now facing the Supreme Court is: does Section 230 immunize interactive computer services when they make targeted recommendations of information provided by another information content provider, or only limit the liability of interactive computer services when they engage in traditional editorial functions (such as deciding whether to display or withdraw) with regard to such information?

Join us as Erik Jaffe breaks down the oral argument.

Stuff They Don't Want You To Know - Conspiracy, Congress and Crime: The ABSCAM Story

How do we ensure rulers of a country obey the laws they create? Not too long ago, the FBI ran against this question during a sting called ABSCAM. While they originally planned to bust art scams, the project grew bigger and bigger -- and, eventually, the FBI conducted sting operations on Congress. And Congress, apparently, conspired to make sure this would never happen again.
