Elon Musk’s company Neuralink promises to help restore sight to the blind and mobiity to the paralized, all thanks to the implantation of a microchip into the brain. But as author and Timcast contributor Shane Cashman points out, these advances aside, there is great potential harm involved in giant corporations injecting people with brain-controlling devices.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Cashman about the “Manchurian Candidate”-like scenario he envisions from brain implants and what can be done to stop companies from Neuralink from moving forward with such plans.
