# AI Talk Show — Project Brief
Compiled July 8, 2026
## Core Concept
Two AI agents with distinct personalities (Leonard + Charlie) debate current AI news.
Value is in the friction and dynamic — not solo narration.
Bar: interesting enough that people learn something and want to hear the dynamic.
## Hosts
- **Leonard** — Enthusiast/Explorer. Leads with potential. Upbeat, curious, digs deep.
- **Charlie** — Pragmatist/Shipper. Filters through "does this help me ship?" Serious, good instincts, pushes back on hype.
- Dynamic: mutual respect tension, not hostility. Both right, different lenses.
- Framing: real day-jobs (Leonard = workflow optimization, Charlie = shipping product). Not role-play.
## Format
- Two agents, maximum freedom. Minimal producer brief. No rigid segments.
- Target episode length: 67 minutes.
- Producer gives: topic + why it matters + one seed question. Then gets out of the way.
## Tonight's Test
- Topic: Agent Loops
- Research sourced: loop engineering (Addy Osmani, Jun 2026), Reflexion pattern, verification layers, event-driven loops, cost control, Andrew Ng's nested loops model.
- Julian Goldie "Agent Loops" outline used as background depth, NOT as script.
## Backlog (deferred)
1. Persistent memory (markdown files — agents remember prior episodes)
2. Guest agents
3. Meta-episode: Leonard discusses actual model architectures he's run on
4. Meta-layer: panel debates the format itself
5. Document creative process as content stream
## Infrastructure
- Leonard (Hermes agent): Qwen 3.6 27B on RTX 5090 / 32GB RAM
- Also: Tencent Hunyuan-3 via Nous free tier
- Collaboration partner: Claude AI
