TBPN Tracks Intel’s Rip, Cursor’s Ambition, and Thrive’s Big Bet (April 25, 2026)

April 25, 2026 · 1m 27s · Listen

Today, we’re starting with TBPN and a little tech-market whiplash: Intel ripping, Cursor getting more ambitious, and Thrive making a big bet.

This is Tech Podcast Podcast, your daily skim of the sharpest new tech-podcast episodes. Today’s rundown goes from chip-stock momentum, to AI coding tools, to the money chasing the next platform shift.

Big Saturday board.

Exactly. Let’s get into TBPN.

From Apple:

George Kurtz, CEO and founder of CrowdStrike, is an internationally recognized cybersecurity expert with over 30 years of experience, including previous roles as Worldwide CTO and EVP at McAfee. He discusses Project QuiltWorks, a coalition formed with partners like EY, IBM, and Accenture to rapidly deliver CrowdStrike's technology to customers and address AI-related vulnerabilities.

The phrase to listen for is “shadow AI.” Because, yeah, every company wants to move fast on AI—but if employees are quietly plugging unauthorized tools into real workflows, security teams may not even see the risk until it’s already inside the business.

Links to every story we covered are in the show notes, so if one is still stuck in your head, that’s where to go next.

That’s Tech Podcast Podcast for today. Thanks for listening, and enjoy your Saturday. This is a Lantern Podcast.
