Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that allows AI assistants to connect to external data sources and tools. By exposing this MCP server, My Weird Prompts becomes queryable by any MCP-compatible AI assistant.
This means you can ask your AI assistant things like:
- "Find My Weird Prompts episodes about technology"
- "Get the transcript from the latest episode"
- "What topics does My Weird Prompts cover?"
- "Give me a random episode to listen to"
