Resolution Criteria

Following 10 years of Cortex, CGP Grey announced a break from Cortex, with the podcast temporarily switching to an interview format. This market resolves YES if CGP Grey appears as a co-host on a new Cortex episode (not an interview-format episode featuring another guest) before January 1, 2027. Resolution will be verified via the official Cortex feed at relay.fm/cortex or major podcast platforms (Apple Podcasts, Spotify). The episode must feature Grey in his traditional co-hosting role discussing workflows and productivity with Myke Hurley, not as a guest being interviewed.

Background

Cortex launched on June 3, 2015, with co-host Myke Hurley of Relay FM. The podcast ran for a decade before Grey stepped back. As of October 2025, the show has continued with Myke hosting interview-format episodes featuring guests like David Pierce, Casey Newton, and Simone Giertz discussing their workflows.

Considerations

Grey has a history of extended absences from podcasting commitments. His other podcast, Hello Internet, has been inactive since May 2020 with no formal announcement of cancellation. The current interview format of Cortex represents a significant structural change from the original two-host dynamic, making Grey's return to the traditional format uncertain.
