=============================================

On the Gregory and Paul Show, we break down the latest in startups, SaaS, AI, and whatever the internet is debating this week.

On this episode, we chat with Chetan Nandakumar, a UC Berkeley–trained technologist and entrepreneur specializing in AI and decentralized systems, with a background in computer vision research and leadership roles at Modista, Gensyn, and now is the CEO and founder of Fluora, a monetized MCP marketplace.

🎙️ Episode 004 – Highlights

🧠 0:00 — WTF is an MCP Server?
We kick things off with Chetan Nandakumar, who breaks down why MCP servers are becoming the HTTP of AI—and how they let agents plug into your data, tools, and workflows. More: https://www.monetizedmcp.org/

💸 2:45 — Monetizing the Agentic Internet
Chetan explains how Flora’s MonetizeMCP enables AI servers to charge for services, much like Stripe does for agents. Smart contracts meet server-to-server commerce. More: https://www.fluora.ai/

🌐 7:00 — Every Business Needs an MCP Server Now
Just like websites were mandatory in the ‘90s, businesses in 2025 will need MCP endpoints to serve AI agents. Welcome to the B2A (Business-to-Agent) era.

🧍 14:00 — Agents That Hire Agents
We imagine a world where your AI agent doesn’t just book travel—it hires other agents to launch your startup or run experiments for your business goals.

🔐 19:00 — Identity, Payments & Trust Layers
From zero-knowledge proofs to creepy iris scans, we explore how humans, bots, and businesses will authenticate and transact in an agent-dominated web.

🏢 25:00 — B2B vs B2C Use Cases
SQL is dead? Not quite. Chetan shares how agents change both internal ops and customer-facing tools—if you stop giving them tasks and start giving them goals.

🎯 35:00 — How Agents Will Change Marketing Forever
No more selling with billboards and influencers. Agents don’t care. They just want the best product. The new game is product quality + clean APIs.

🎥 42:00 — The AI Film Revolution
We nerd out on tools like Higgsfield and Runway, and what’s holding back full-length AI movies (spoiler: character consistency still sucks).

🧠 48:00 — Meme of the Week: Peter Thiel Deepfake
Greg shows off his terrifyingly good Peter Thiel AI deepfake and what it took to get the voice, pauses, and tone just right. Link: https://x.com/I_Am_GKennedy/status/19...

💬 56:00 — Final Take: The Internet Is Changing Fast
MCP servers, monetization layers, digital ID—this episode lays out how AI agents will transform not just apps, but the internet itself.
