I can't stop once we've started It's Friday. And I'm back because I'm alive. Barely barely eyes. Are itchy though? Anyone else got allergies know? That doesn't equal death though? No, allergies is death, maybe I should stop bouncing on. The microphone allergies is actually life, isn't it? Because it's other life forms embedded on your eyeballs. Trying to kill me. This is Ari the data Queen. There we go. Here's an intro. Like there's one in here somewhere, joined by analysts old, Mavis Scotty and hazelnut Raleigh's on. Today's weekly wrap up. What are we have today? We have you a W's latest surprising win. I'm not surprised. Yeah, I don't know, you know, to Matt to Mattie always surprised. We got lots of bands. Yeah, and lots of stacks and lots pollen everywhere stats. Stats, you know, numbers old-fashioned data. One two, three what that's what? We're just gonna count things. That's what we do here and call him. Um, do we have any Preamble or are we just gonna do this show? I'm sorry, I have yeah, no, I do have something to talk about, is it? You sure I like the new shirt. It's not new. I work yesterday. Newman. New to me. That's true. Therefore, notice I work. I notice all the time. You I didn't sleep in it. Now I wore the like weird button Downey. Sure like three days in a row. Two, like it's fine. I know my husband really doesn't like my my button Downey. My flannels. Hey, yeah, your husband doesn't look like when that when you look like someone from Portland, Maine, which is a, he doesn't like it when I don't comb my hair that's from being from Portland but I don't call me here at apparently he's affected your life deeply. Well he doesn't get the whole curly hair thing you did. Oh, you Think straight-haired white, man. Oh, did you say that? She like this straight hair, white man, your husband has his shoes. That's not what I want to talk about that. I have been watching on Apple TV, have you heard of Manhunt Know. I don't care about it. Yeah, I don't know what we're doing now. Yeah. Good I don't know what's happening. Oh, it's too late. She already did. Matt. Oh no, it's Tim Cook. Your winner. This week. You know what man? Honey, well, you should be because our both of our fans just bought Apple TV because of you, I'm real. I'm real chatty today. So good, take it away with story. Yeah, oh, depress you. Because my personality is not it doesn't evoke chatter or anything good. That's just booing and hissing and I was bad to your point, all right, I do have a lot of bands, a little bands in my first of all, us bands, worker non-compete agreement, as business groups, already are vowing to Sue. I think they're already suing They wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. They like they, they jumped up that lawsuit before it was even banned because John, they're ready for it. Can you believe that that before yesterday? I don't know, when this law actually goes into effect, this is from the Federal Trade Commission. Oh, I know. Can you believe that workers could not join their employees rivals or launch competing businesses? I mean, isn't this just crazy when you think about in America in the world, in the land of Freedom? We're not as free as we say. We are so weird. Is that though, how weird is a worker could do that? I just find another. So free market is for the companies. Not for the workers, the HR. Yeah, HR. We even need to ban this the first place. This the second, I'll go right to the second band. Oh yeah, good us bands. Tiktok owner bite dance will prohibit app in US unless it is sold. And of course, tiktok is already saying it will not be sold. Say yeah. What are they say? Had some conversation that they might sell Without the algorithm. Right? Without they said, they are not going to sell and not the horrible hours later. All right. That's a horrible algorithm. That is making everyone addicted in the first place. Yeah, right. Yeah. Well, they, they also are they talked about and firing the head of US Government relations. That was their move. I got a couple of questions here for one of you. First of all, why are we Banning tiktok? I don't really understand this and second of all, who cares, why do we care there? There are five, there are five to ten other horrible, social media apps that are already doing this, and there will be a replacement coming. Anyway, that will do this. Again, I mean, who cares? Like you looked at my stories and just ripped them off. Sorry, I'll keep going. Then I'll keep going the next one. Stunning Victory. The reloaded to the United? Auto worker, a big win in the ten is Tennessee, the same state that is now letting teachers bring. Guns to schools, just voted 73% in favor for a union at a Volkswagen factory. And maybe that's why it was a win because of the Volkswagen factory. Is that it It's just European isn't Tennessee. The Republican governors in an act that can I cannot. I still can't think of a precedent signed like a, they basically, I think 13 of them came out against unionization and they were talking about how I was gonna kill jobs, and they were telling the workers not to unionize. How often do politicians step in literally, for a company and say, no, you workers shouldn't unionize. You're going to hurt our our local economies. Well, they, well, with the anti you're doing it like to protect themselves, like that's supposed to be on the side of well, they're doing it so that they could still get their donation money from those businesses. I'm wildly impressed by this 73%. I really love you. Yeah, I don't know what happened there and the fourth one to bring you all down. And this one's for Matt because we were the first, we were the first news agency to really warn people about covid. You know what I mean? We were really the first We were the one on the ground. We were on the ground. We were worried for. So I'm gonna I'm gonna report this story. That's not maybe getting enough headlines. Concerned grows as bird, flu spreads further in US, cows 32 Hertz and eight states fragments of bird, flu virus. Genome found in pasteurized. Milk FDA says, I don't like this. Matt doesn't drink, I have to drink. No, I have to drink like the milk that the normal people drink because I drink Lactaid milk. So my kids are drinking like a little something, or sorry, because have you had almond milk. It's like, why don't you just? It's horrible. Like, it's like at my oatmeal. I also, I don't like it being called almond milk, just because they make it white. So it looks like, oh, he's like that. He's bought by the dairy industry. Yeah, he bought. I don't understand. Drinking milk really at all, but let's say this. Yeah. We were definitely, the first business news coverage. Yes. We were covering this in the in 2019 and like October of 2019, November, 2019. I say December January in China. I remember we did a whole bit about what would have to happen if companies have to change their supply chains, where would they go? And we were talking about Vietnam was a likely landing spot but Vietnam is another hub for potential infection. Giving all these like factors we did like a bit on this and that we're talking about bird flu. Now just another pandemic, Damian just call it just well. The, the trouble news too is that there are already saying that that government Regulators are kind of already, but I'll tell you another thing, that'll shock. You is that, that back in the day, with covid, I was with some friends. I know it's hard to believe I have friends and I after one of our shows, Matt I said here there was like 10 people at the table. And I said, who here is worried about covid and they all laughed at me? Yeah. Yeah. They did. They all thought I was an idiot and it's because of our reporting. So, what I'm trying to tell you is, you should all be very scared but that's those are my four stories. I think it's a big deal. I don't like any of these stories anymore. Oh, really just made this one that one just made me just. Don't pick it up. Don't pick it. All right, so we've got non-compete agreements. Our band. We've got a tiktok is banned. We've got UAW win and Tennessee and the bird flu. I think. Story of the week as much as I like it to be the bird flu, which should be you want it to be the bird flow. Okay, yeah, I think tiktok and banning tiktok takes over everything. So do we tie even doing what this band forever, right? I mean we keep talking about it, but it would pass. Okay. It's true that it passed the house, the Senate, all of our president media right now. Yeah, but tiktok consume right? I mean, can't they can't they fight this. Well, it's not bad today. So they have like 270 days to sell tiktok as part of the band and then the president can extend it for another like 100 so it's not going anywhere. Yeah. And in that one year, they've given them plenty of time to fight and Sue and counter Sue and all this stuff and China's gonna retaliate by Banning something, the US like, like some some favorite us thing. Like, I don't know. I wonder how many ounces, I don't know. They're gonna ban something. I wonder how many downloads they've gotten just from being the new so much and like threatening to ban. I think they're already getting them already. So, but I'm gonna agree with Larry. It is a sweet. It is definitely that. I mean, I like to say, actually non-compete is the only other one because non-competes are a big thing, right? Bring you to myself. Goodly stuff the week brought to you by me. Yeah, you need to be sponsored by myself by your shirt. I sponsored myself. Yeah. Okay. Well, let's start off with an easy one US bands. Non-compete, agreements for nearly all jobs. Stop there. Do we know I like the details, it's in the details. This affects 30 million people, one in every five American workers are bound by non-compete, is that right? Really 30 million people, I don't know that. That actually makes me feel bad because I did not have to sign in on complete or even in NDA. When I left msci, they cared so late. Every document when I left because we started this and I was like is there something I can't say? Can I do like, who are you again? literally were like, Carol, you Know, so little we could care less about you. So this band will take effect later this year and what the government is hoping that it will encourage people to swap jobs more freely. So you hate your job. You cannot just quit and find another job at it somewhere else and they're estimating that could lead to increase wages totaling near 300 billion dollars per year and is there until they're all into effect. Do we know when did non-compete start to become the the role, I don't know they've been around for a while but it was a big Tech thing which that's a non-answer by the way, from both of you. Been around for a while. Gives me nothing man. I didn't research the story. This is Ari's section. Nearly all jobs of this headline. Is that This will take effect later this year for everyone except existing non-compete at our four Executives. Oh, screw you executive. They assumed that Executives had negotiated their terms of the country because, no, our Executives know that already but they get they get paid money to negotiate their country. It's part of their older conversation office. So you're with me Hm. Can I ask you a question now? Uh-huh. The non-competes, what is the like, Venn diagram of people who have none of the starts? What year and people whose jobs are going to be removed by AI? Like, is it like, 80%? Yeah, going off the rails, now. No, I'm just saying, I'm trying to the relative goodness of this, right? Like, because like, that's a lot of crap on this. Don't can't be replaced. Well, don't ruin this heart security workers. For example, just trying to make a crap. Don't they do security for yeah, don't listen to him. All right, all right. Number two, millions more salad salaried. Workers will be eligible for overtime pay under Final Biden Administration. Wait, what is this coming out of the White House? I don't like all this. This is not good. I mean it's election year. What do you woke? It's true. I don't like this because I think Ari's angling for overtime, pay. I don't like this at all because she's late like every other day now, because she pretends to have a child I tell you about it. That was my immediate thought when Matt first made that joke, five minutes. I do remember that listen we have the non-compete I can total throw it a billion dollars per year and then this the overtime worker thing. It can add 1.5 billion dollars. It could move it from employers to workers. Oh so you're saying that they're not compete is better and take that back too. I'm saying they're both great and they're adding to, you know, 1.5 million. Wait a minute, you know, who you know, who doesn't need overtime. Pay. Us AI. That's who doesn't need. Overtime pay. Okay not Me, I need it. yeah, so this is great and Last but not least tiktok banned measures signed by President, Biden's Facebook, Instagram. Snapchat, whatever this is. So when start with something, why is it a win? Why is it a win? The last thing we have the better. Okay, so we've got that's fine. If it said I'm gonna ban X when you be happy. Yes, if it didn't exist anymore. Yes. Us bands not compete agreements. Salary workers eligible for overtime and tiktok banned. Um, this week you guys. Yeah, great week, yes, again don't have this many good news, except tiktok still exists and I find it's ever gonna go away. But if I had known, you were gonna do this, I would have replaced it with a UAW Tennessee, 75% surprised. You don't have that one there. That's very hard. It would be, that would be, like workers workers workers. So we're good list. You should replace it with a battery of some kind. Um, Damien, do you have a vote? I mean, it's got its to me. It's a no-brainer. You might disagree. It's gotta be banning non-compete agreements, what? Yeah. 100. It's got and I want to hear how Republicans in the Mago. Right is gonna spin. This is being negative somehow. I can't wait for that. I it mostly because tiktok I think is a story of the week and I'm not sure that it's good because I don't know what the final outcome is and salary workers. Getting overtime is really just RS asking for overtime pay. I think it has to be elimination. It has to be non-competes which brings us to moving right along. I like it. Yeah, this is the fast show today fast show. Hi energy. All right as holy is to the week. That's me. All right I'm so that is different a year? The only nominee? Yeah I'm the I'm the only one up for all right. Are you first? All right. This is a no-brainer I'm going with I'm gonna do something different which is I'm gonna start with stats before I give you the asshole, okay, this is this is actually I'm playing up to our dad is really what it is because since we already like that numbers data, I don't know. I just they're not hold numbers either. All right, here are some facts. We'll just call them factz prefects. Japan is the only country in the G7 that did does not legally recognized same-sex unions. Nationality in any form. Wow, that's still the only one of the G7 that's a pressing Japan. You're depressed. There's an estimate here. There's a couple numbers and estimate here. A point zero. Two percent of Japan. Population is black, it's so low that they don't even include race or ethnicity in their census, they include nationality because everyone's Japanese, right? Like in Japan. That makes sense. Okay, heterogeneous, I don't know what to say about that country. Fine. Okay, I'm just giving you some facts. Yeah, it is an island. So maybe there's no way of getting there. Here's another fact, Japan ranks 115th out of 146 countries on the Gender Gap Index by the world economic Forum that index measures for them. Yeah. Access to work. You know, maternal outcomes pay Equity a number of factors about women and men and disparities between over the years. Matt, we have tagged us and talked about a slew of sort of, like, anti-woman stories in the Japanese workplace on this show. Like, so, yeah, so many creepy stories coming. They had to mandate adding women to boards there, because there were, there was none here, like, they're none. I mean, can you just a woman some time, right? And we did a, we did a research paper back at Mothership at msci, that showed the worker problem. They have a shortage of workers because they don't actually use women in their Workforce or they hadn't for a long time because there was no Child Care. Like they actually actively didn't put child care near factories or places where women would work. Okay. So those are some facts. Here's the headline. Yeah, Elon musk's likes games originating from this country because they haven't been corrupted by woke. Dei lies is Japan. I was gonna say, I, I did click through the article. I didn't know it was Japan, but yeah. Yeah, video games and I'm like, this, the video games aren't whoa. There's No Deal. Probably like, they're probably racist and probably they're violent against women. I'm guessing all the women have giant boobs and massive swords. And I don't like in Japan. Just like in Japan. Yeah, I like that. You you Mentioned data about women and the black population because woke Dei basically stands for women and black people, right? That's right. That's what that's the lies that he's talking about is basically any kind of equal rights, or civil rights. That's what he's referring to. Yeah, he is, he's coming. He representation. That's not a South African white, dude. Basically, that's what he largely is complaining that it's Wok. Dei lies to have like women empowered representation representation of any kind of in a video game is a Dei lie. Meaning while he likes the games from a place that Either actively fights against lgbtq. He likes a strong, patriarchy, strong hetero. Patriarchy. So musk, you're up for another asshole of the week, good for you. Like it's another another way, but would be voting for musk or voting for the stats or your hand for must. Okay. Facts. First. That's first ready? Yeah. Oklahoma I think you should always do it this way. This is very, I'm listening to you for the first time in months. Oklahoma has State debt totaling 7.9 billion dollars in 2023. That's up from 7.122%, increase in debt in here. Okay. So think of it that way, the stats. So like stats in 17 months in the last 17 months, Oklahoma, the government spent $185 billion, on debt, right? It's actually Their, their debt is costing them, more and more on average. They're paying 59 basis points more than other states. That have passed this law. The headline Republicans weigh rolling back anti-esg law. I didn't realize this was Oklahoma. Okay, that was Oklahoma are you? The name. So, this is what happened? Yes, I can guess why? Because we've talked about the price tag associated with these anti. Yes, there have been multiple studies. Now, showing in advance of these laws passing that it would have a price tag and now, Oklahoma is weighing actually rolling it back because they created a blacklist of woke companies that were hurting Oklahoma, because they weren't like they were anti-oil mean none of that is actually true, but they were not allowed to do business with three of the largest investment banks in the United States or four of them. And just by cutting out all the competition on their Blacklist. It has cost them nearly 200 million dollars in additional debt calls. So Oklahoma Republicans, you're up for asshole the week this week. Good for, you know, for someone who worked in the issue industry for a long time, I wish that industry was as woke as these states, think it is not even close. All right. Last one. What else? Facts first. That's first. So first, we had mosque in Oklahoma. Okay, yeah. Go ahead. Archer. Daniel Midland. Sure announced a two-month delay in releasing a 10K for 2023. They are delaying their 10K. Okay. Um they they actually had to restate six years of Intergroup segment transactions. They're restating a tremendous amount. They said it's not going to have a material effect on their bottom line output because it was intra-company stuff but it kind of probably is and in fact so much. So they got the rare adverse opinion from an auditor this year which never see that you never ever see that. I mean like, like in terms of the number of times that happens, it probably happens once a year across 9,000 companies and the company that happens to is like Bob's Garage in, like always been bad at accounting. Yeah, he's horrible. Here's your headline, Archer Daniels Midland CFO to step down amid accounting concerns. Well, at least they actually tell us. Why, at least they tell us, why? For one? No no, it's great. If you're wondering who Asshole is though, tell us isn't the CFO. Because here's a quote from the article as part of his resignation agreement, luthar will receive a cash performance incentive award for 2023 and shares tied to company performance, come on, and then he doesn't step down until September of this year. Despite the fact that this is on his watch now, right? Like the Dave Calhoun deal person. Exactly and he will continue to support admin in a non-executive capacity until his departure date. Oh my God, dating the show Mission as it the company, my reading this right man. So he's potentially getting Equity. Now that will have a deflated share price because of the crap that he created which will just bounce back up naturally and in a few years he'll just make profits off of that by well welcome to the protected class so you're you're nominee. Here is the audit committee like this. Why it was only because this includes the chair, Mike Burke, who has an accounting degree, the ex CEO of AECOM and X kprofiles in 2009. So he is a director. Who's had a little bit of experience with the old failure. He likes excitement, he likes. He does like a little bit excitement. Those are the only two Financial experts on the audit committee which includes five other members. Ted Colbert, what ex Boeing really Harrison Colgate. Seriously Sandler yes. It's a seven. I'm sorry. Six person. It's a 60 that's really large for this subset. Yeah. Considering that four of them don't have Financial expertise. What? They doing on the audit committee. Great question. Great question, not to mention the fact that our data shows 82% of board influence is insiders and it's not insiders that are hired by the company, it is material related party, transactions, Where literally almost every single board member their companies or their directorship companies, where they're everywhere. They've gone have been buying things from admirable year, maybe that's why they don't care. And our data also shows that these directors have a huge earnings TSR performance Gap. Meaning they have really low earnings, but strong TSR. So these are people who are really good at talking up the market and you make it and greasing the wheels of investors, but not so good on companies that make money. So your audit committee ATM. They're once again. I don't remember what we just. We were just referencing. A company were a lot of bad crap is happening in the board. Didn't take a hit for but this is yeah. Another example of a company where a lot of bad stuff happened and an executive is let go and the nothing ever happens to the board. Nothing. I mean there, there there's supposed to be preventing this, right? I mean, there's supposed to be providing oversight of this and no one, what's up, and right? Am I wrong? We went on a roller coaster there like I thought the CFO stepping down like, yes, capability, just CFO stepped on every 18 months, is what we're learning. I mean, all right, what's happening? So you're assholes are musk. Dei lies because he likes Japan video games, you have Oklahoma Republicans. Who now might have to roll back their anti-esg, law and Archer, Daniel Midland audit committee, which does not know how to audit and the board that okay, the CFO getting paid out, all right, what's the number right there? And that is Oklahoma. Yeah. They're taxpayers money on crap. Matt did silent. Did musk really say, woke D E, I lied. Is that what he said? That was the Tweet. Yeah. That was the dead. Does he said that? I lies? Yeah. Except it's like it's hard to vote Elon Musk though because he's always now. He's like yeah. So I agree with all right. It's a sweet. We're sweeping our way through this and, and not only that, we are ripping our way. We gotta vote on this next one, too, because I feel like I'm gonna we're already. And the next one which is headline is the Wii. Yeah. This is where we just picked our favorite headlines, because why not? Yeah. When the headline star show. NASA. Says it expected space station garbage to burn up the debris smashed into a Florida Home Instead. Why is always Florida? Why same, I always Florida breed knows but yeah it just smashed into some dudes house like through the roof through the oh like floor. The ceiling and into a wall. Thankfully nobody got injured is the dude. What the heck? Yeah, no one got injured. He ended up tweeting at Nasa and tweeting at other people being like, I think this is space garbage. Could somebody please like, get me in contact with some help and Sciences went out there and they verified that. Yeah, in fact, it came from outer space. Wow. Wow, yeah, it's cool and terrifying all at once. I wish it was Oklahoma though. And through Danny, do you have any headlines? I have three dumb. CEO headlines, I'll say quickly, without a backstory so that I don't bore, you know, it's just headlines. I said no, no, you're fine to go in your story about since I have three. I'll just go quickly billionaire. Ken, Griffin's firm calls. Trump media, CEO a loser criticism of Short Selling. I like that one Australia, prime minister calls, Elon Musk, and arrogant, billionaire, and Spotify, CEO. Daniel X surprised at negative impact of laying off 1500 Spotify employees. Surprised. I liked that a lot. Yeah, yeah, surprise. So what? What I leave them off. There's nobody left to be angry. 1500, Ste 15 1500. Yeah, I have two. Yeah. My first one is Costco's. Quirky culture means the finance, Chief won't get his own parking spot. I'm so glad you picked this one because I, I hate the, the inference there, that it's quirky not to give all your Executives, all the best things over the people who actually work hard all day long. I agree. It is quickly. Well, I love this, work is the wrong word because the Galaxy it's very warm Buffett. Grandpa, teddy bear field. Yeah. Well that's the that's what they do. That's what they do. Turkey to not show on your workers. I don't like I don't like the inference. It is unusual. He's right now he's getting look at Richard glancy, who is the CFO he cleared summary comp last year of 6.76 million which included rights to fly in the corporate Jet. And and this is listed as this is disclosed 120 dollars of other compensation which was a free executive membership card to call stupid. I love that stupid stupid. And my number two is Sleep baby foods loaded with unhealthy sugars but only in poorer countries. I like the, yeah, I got scared there for a second. I like that. That's what the headline does. Like, it's a loaded with unhealthy sugars but don't worry, it's only in well country is not. You can't read the headline like there are no poor people in our country. I don't understand like what's a poorer countries country I know. Okay as it you know GDP Damien. Does that mean that the Nestle baby foods at like Dollar Generals loaded with on the health sugar cause aren't General? They're probably sourcing it from like yeah, poorer country stock. I recently found out what Puffs are what Ariel cereal plus yesterday. And I don't know if you know about this, but there's a clearance section at a grocery store. Yeah, go there. Well, I only recently started my husband Right. It's like what is this and in Pharmacy and in CVS, right by the bathroom. Yeah. Well, lovely place, it's uncomfortable. Anyway, I found pups there. And I was like, heck yeah, let me buy all of them. How did you how did you of all people? You didn't know what the clearance section and a grocery store, you don't know what the Breads and the in the medicines and all right. So here your headline is the options. NASA, don't read them garbage. Bunch of people calling people losers, an idiots, Costco's quirky culture and baby Foods on healthy but only important. Okay, I'm gonna vote First. You're Gonna vote for yours? No, I was going to, but I really liked Spotify. Oh, see I, I like the quirky Costco. I'm gonna break the Titans. Say, I'm gonna make, I want to make fun of Daniel Eck, so, I'm gonna go all right. Oh, alright, I means we're on to. This is like the Fastest. Show in the history of shows. Great job. Everyone say that. But we're still at 34 minutes. I mean she's two and a half hour podcast. We did talk about the very important World of Sports. That's very important winners. Do you have a winner Damien? I do, it's it's Coca-Cola. The company cocoa. And why? Because they are. Now the new 75 years, they are now the latest Target of the anti-woke movement. I guess, Joe Rogan and Congress person. Jim Jordan, Ohio or mad at Coca-Cola. So now, if the anti-woke movement is mad at you, you're my new favorite company basically. Yeah. Why? Because there's Warren Buffett. There's no there's, there's an inference that they don't want to advertise on Spotify and they're, they're singing and maybe it's because of Joe Rogan. There's actually because, you know, most Republican anti-walk movements are not actually based in any real facts. But there's a, there's a suggestion that when a, when a company does not advertise in, you, it means they don't believe in free speech. That's what the right wing like to say about court. Remember they said this about on X, right? That's what Elon Musk saying when companies were like, we don't want our ads by Neyo nuts. He's and he claims that, that they don't believe. Yeah. Um well I have a winner for the week. My winner is Mark Zuckerberg, okay, but you've been doing this every week since we've been talking about the tiktok, you always vote for Mark Zuckerberg and you should probably win. He's the actual winner of everyone. He what's the weather about this segue into my prediction prediction, a here, which is he will soon own all of social media when. Yeah, he buys tiktok it's possible. I mean, you know, the weird thing about Mark Zuckerberg and I said this about Microsoft, right? Microsoft, and Apple that they kind of represent the adults in the room to me, that I was okay with those companies. Now, even though I used to hate them 20 years ago, but now Mark is social media, when I'm sorry. But when I compare him to Elon Musk, I kind of like, Mark. I don't options. I kind of like Mark now and I also just saw that threads his weird dumb X competitor now, has more daily users than even Twitter. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, he's definitely.
