Wow. Yeah. Yeah it's been a run baby. Yeah, we're here for good now. Fall has started Yeah, no more in this nothing works. We're gonna We're not gonna do it, do a lot of shows from now on live from your CEO's, mega mega mega option Grant. Yeah. Another manic Monday edition of business pants showing but the Lord of analysts Halls. Wait, I'm at the Lord of that. It's that just today's broken record that it is. Called September 11th. 2023. Oh, it's the Arbiter of Truth. Back to the studio. That's you, Matt, I have a ton of different headlines, grouped into different categories. And I I asked very simple to have questions like which is the best and you as the Arbiter of Truth, get to Grace. The audience with your Witnesses. I have those youth. You're the new. Yes. Vivek and I are on the truth. I know he should have he should have, but we're gonna have to default to me because he's ignoring us. Well, there was some footage on the campaign Trail of the truth sign that he walks around with, I guess he puts it on the bus, it fell on him. The truth sign fell right on his head, so I'm wondering will the free flow sign behind? You will. Could it fall in your head today? No, I cannot why because, uh, because we do actual truth here. Okay. That's the big difference, ready? Yeah, let's do this thing. Do we need? You need to play something. You know, game show me. Music or some kind of exciting Macho. You know, football. It's football season, right? Something. Okay, you want like yeah. Oh, there you go. There you go. I'm gonna get sued for this, but hopefully, we'll start us off. This might be good for the NFL, because sue us because I can't think of anything more boring than yesterday. I just, I was looking at the news headlines. It's just like, does anybody care anymore about football but anything really? But actually football know, that's really just well, we're all so. I mean Tom Brady host. Tom Brady and now now life is meaning good. Thank you Tom. Brady thank you for retiring because it feels good. Not to care about the NFL. It is it is a good feeling Mac Jones. I don't even know what that means. Yeah, I just like mac and cheese. Let's go. Here we go. In no particular order these categories none of them make any real sense but I'll give it a shot. Here we go, that's it. I don't have any music. Oh you already played I already played you. Here we go, here we go play it for all time. First category, brattis CEO Story the gradius CEO. Ready? Here we go. The Airbnb IPO was a huge success but CEO Brian chesky says it was quote. One of the saddest periods of his life. Ruined renting for the entire Western world really like since Airbnb debuted. Local rent in cities have gone Haywire. Everyone's angry, everyone hate Airbnb. Nobody even trusts anymore. Anyway, because, you know, I'm sure they're all like laced with cameras and recording equipment. But the point is Matt, he works so hard that he became lonely. He oh, yeah. So he he ram-rodded this horrible company down our throats but he said, so that's the first headline. So it turns out that being the CEO and working 24 hours a day to ruin. Entire industries, does not fulfill you to basically ignore local regulations and to just push through ahead with your growth plan. Yeah, got it. Hi scaling, doesn't make you happy second bratty. CEO Story the week. Here's an old favorite map. Probably, you know, your favorite really Boeing CEO, David Calhoun. Oh I love this already is commuting to the office by private jet. Yes. All right. And I guess, according to the Wall Street, Journal. Some Boeing Employees are making fun of him. That really so it turns out that he over the last three years, he's made about 400 trips on his private airplane, from one of his two homes, either from New Hampshire's Lakes Sunapee or in a from a gated South Carolina Resort Community. This guy has two Resort homes, right? And it's prompted according to the Wall Street Journal. Now, this is not, this is not even the Business Insider. It's prompted. Some of Boeing Employees to hang signs and to have mugs that read love Lake life. That means but yeah, that's a little like that's very passive aggressive. I don't even get a little bit more aggressive. That's very passive aggressive. I guess. One of the, the biggest reason for this story is that, you know, Boeing offers very few work opportunities. Very few remote work opportunities. In fact, they've been pushing a culture to be at work, but the guy spends a lot of time as lake houses. I guess. That's that's the takeaway here. I believe it was David Bowie, singing, that, yeah, or sorry, did David David Bowie, you might as well be David. Calhoun was my favorite arms. David Bowie. The, that they could not decarbonize because the problems with sustainable aviation fuel and that all of the promises that they made were basically they over-promised. Meanwhile, taking 400 trips a year in a private from New Hampshire and between like places that are like an hour flight, 30 minute, flight or whatever. Congratulations. David. All right. So that's, that's very high in the running and the third Friday. You see your story of the week? This is a doozy flexport CEO. Ryan Peterson announced on social media that his logistics company was resending dozens of job offers on Friday morning. Okay? Just bear with resisting, just bear with me. This is the longest one. I'm gonna present to you today in this game show, but I had to do it. Of course, he posted this on all places Twitter or whatever you want to call. Okay. I don't know why human resource announcements are made on Twitter. I mean, he should be fired, just for that. It just seems like a breach of everything, honestly. But here's what he said, here's the here's the exact quote. Flex Port is rescinding a bunch of signed offer letters for people who are starting as soon as this Monday, I am deeply sorry to those people who are expecting to join our company and won't be able to at this time. It's messed up, but no way around it. We have had a hiring freeze for months. I have no idea why more than 75 people were signed to join. All of this has been canceled except for handful of roses to likely blah blah. A flex Port team member will reach out to each of you personally. I hope you will forgive us someday and even consider coming to work here again. Once we get our house in order first of all, there's no again. I mean they're not really starting but this is a. Can you believe this announcement? This is crazy. I mean, this actually makes the guy who fired everyone over. Zoom looked like a way better CEO. It's like a better that was like an operational mishap. This guy is nuts. Just think of the the process here you have to be following him on a platform that there aren't very many people on, but you just have HR or just, just send them an email. I mean, what you can't say, things like, dude. Sorry that you oh, we can't hire you but super hope. You'll come around later. Like, what is, why do you want this public anyway? It just makes you look like a full. Okay. Okay, you could change the category. You can take the most idiotic CEO story, whatever, other two are Braddy. And the one winner in this category without a doubt is CEO, David Calhoun? Flying that. I just everywhere Under the Sun and and I they were they were forcing employees to go back to work. Last check most Boeing Employees, do not have several lake houses that they can take private jets to win from. So that that would be the president. Correct answer. I'm sad that Brian chesky actually thought that running Airbnb would fill the hole in his heart or IP owing like Capital markets somehow, fulfill you and flex Sports. CEO Ryan Peterson. I'm pretty sure. Is it immoral on? Like I should be fired out. Right? That's it. Moving on best. Okay, so it was. It's revealed ready? Yeah. Oh every time I like every time I want to do biography, do on the shelves, tomorrow about Elon Musk. Uh from Walter Jacobson I believe is the same author behind the Steve Jobs biography. Yeah yeah. I listen to that one. That's the only listen to on tape. I enjoyed that one best. So it was revealed that Grimes actually has a third kid with Elon Musk. I don't know why this was hidden. I don't really understand any of this. I don't like care. I'm not gonna get right to the point. What is the best kid named the best Grimes must kid named. Oh wow. I'm gonna just Rhymes musk. Right, because he's just version of musk's children, right? I got it and I bear with me, this is gonna be difficult for me. I, I don't, I don't let me start with the easy one. Okay. The first one is techno mechanicus. That's the nickname is towel. Okay? Okay, okay, second one is exit. Dark. Sidereal nickname. Why And the third one is not be white. I don't understand this third one at all. It's, it's Eck, I don't know if you know this one but it's x-a-x. I don't even know what to do with that one, but the nickname is X. I don't even have to do with this. Matt, you help me out bail me out. What is the best name here? Okay, well um no I think the Oh man. Um the sidereal is a is a thing from Tolkien like that's a that's like references Elvish. It's already stupid. Is it any wonder that his other children? Hate him? I mean, this is craziness. Techno mechanicus, that's the latest child. That's the hidden child, you know, but at least the nickname Tau, I like that Tau, it's nice. That's kind of a that's a fine name. That's a nice name. The one with all the letters in one of the X's formerly known as the artist Prince. Yeah. Um, I don't know. Did there was there were pronunciation guides. Okay? And it's like it's pronounced some way. Yeah, that by far is the worst, sure. So, I'm gonna go with techno mechanicus. Sure the best name. Yeah, that's right. Name. Moving on. Yeah, I know, I'm I know. I'm right. Yeah, that's right. Well, you're gonna see a trend in this game today. Is that all of your answers? In fact, will be correct, because of truth. Yes truth. Yes, Civic. This is true. Sounds like All right. Saddest stakeholder headline. Oh, sad is stakeholder. There's a lot of those. They'll go quickly on this one. Walmart, cut Walmart, Matt, Wal-Mart, you know which the founding family at Walmart is Walmart. You cut starting, pay for new hires who prepare online orders stock shelves. Okay, they cut the starting page. Okay, number two, Wisconsin Sawmill has agreed to stop hiring children. After a 16 year old died on the job. That's not too. Really Good work. That's an agreement that I can get behind by the way. That's, you know, what? If you gonna agree with something that's like one that's Sawmill, you know. You can picture what I'm picking. When I was 16, I worked at Del's frozen lemonade. Like I was busy tables. Yeah. There was no risk. And finally saw mill seems not great. A mother is suing Peloton claiming her son was killed when his bike fell on him. I don't understand. Oh, how does that even work, though? Where was he? The I don't know. I don't want to get into details there, but I'm not gonna like levitate and then come back down. I'm gonna skip that one because that's can we say that might not be peloton's entirely just said but Walmart cutting pay. You know what this is? It this is a clear truth winner, Wisconsin Sawmill, stop hiring children. Woke that seems like that seems like a clear win. Especially these Republicans are trying to eliminate child labor laws. This seems like a clear win for stakeholders, particularly 16 year olds working in Sawmills, all right, so, I won that one. The answer is correct. Next stupid is CEO headline. X Starbucks CEO, Howard. Schultz admits he wants. Shunned the Frappuccino. It's pretty stupid. That is a really dumb headline. Number two, David Solomon, you know, DJ D saw over there. See, oh, go and sacks defends. His leadership of Goldman Sachs on CNBC, the quote, I don't recognize the character that is painted of me that one. I thought that was pretty funny and finally, even Uber CEO. Dara K thinks, the companies sucks and treats its drivers like crap. That's because he spent a day behind the wheel, so that's right. It's time like it took him like five years before he did this experiment, we actually drove an Uber car. And then he realized that the all the company which is built on the backbone of these drivers was mistreating. The drivers took him and yeah, but there's there's one clear winner and it's not the one. You think the clear winner is X Star Bucks. CEO. Howard Schultz, admits. He wants. Shunned the Frappuccino. And here's why is that? Yeah, because we the headline, writers wrote X Starbucks, CEO, Howard Schultz. That's the one thing. Yeah, we must be completely. That is the one thing I know. He's not currently the CEO, but he is the founder, and he's still sitting on the damn bored. He's got all the Fucking influence in that company. Don't frame it. Like the guy who used to work here and run the company didn't like the Frappuccino. You've written the headline, totally wrong. Yeah, it's to be that the most influential person at Starbucks didn't like, one of their drinks. That's how you should have written it. According to our data, he controls 68% of board influence. That's free flow analytics data. Okay, moving on the worst Food headline, which is the worst, oh, no, there's so many things that are bad about food, headlines. Just 12% of Americans are eating half of the nation's beef. Oh, I don't even know where to start with that. That makes me feel so bad and about groups, they're referring to are men, especially aged 50 to 65. They're eating over four over four ounces of beef a day. That's discussing wait. For ounces a day because the research showed that their their their, their eating, a disproportionate amount of beef in a day and disproportionate is defined as four or more ounces per day. That's And that's for or more. Yeah. That's true for day, right? Like that's not four, that's four or more. Yeah. What are your Baseline is for the minimum amount of that, these people are eating, is two and a half pounds of beef a week. That's the minimum amount that they're eating. Yeah. Next headline, snack company behind one chip challenge pulls its extra hot tortilla chip from stores following the death of a 14 year old so this is this is from a company called paqui that sold, this passion ship. They sold it. It's dusted with two of the world's hottest peppers and it's sold in a coffin. Shaped Box this kid and this kid bought this chip at a Walgreens. That's right. A Walgreens. So maybe that's why Ross Brewer quit Walgreens. Yeah that's the second headline. In the third worst Food, Lion headline. Is did tobacco companies also get us hooked on junk food, new research, says yes. They're claiming that the tobacco companies. The sales teams there were responsible for what has been called, pushing, I guess junk food at us because they as part of their diversification process, right? They acquired a lot of junk food. Yeah, sure. Is that what happened? Yeah, that's true. Okay. You ready for the answer, though? Yeah, true. Yes, the truth answer is Definitely the beef answer. That's that's there's no doubt that 12%. Of Americans eating two and a half pounds of beef per week. Is an absurd number. The one chip challenge. I know the Packy challenge, right? That that's, that's like a tick tock. Yep. YouTube problem, like, that has nothing to do with the chips, that is everything to do with. Well, kids want to eat the chips so they can get famous on Instagram for like basically vomiting on so that chip should be sold next to the. Paul's probably shouldn't be available to Children. Sure. Except that like no. Like tiktok should also not be available to Children. True and the tobacco company, is he everything they do is terrible. So it's definitely the beef. So Vivic, our favorite CEO and our favorite anti ESG Crusader. Although he he's creating against anti-esg by creating, a know, let's be honest about what he's crusading about, he's crusading against women, people of color and, and gay people. That's okay. So he has this new thing known as presidential campaign, where he wants to deport, the Children of undocumented people living in America, despite the fact that they are citizens. So if you're born in America, under a undocumented person you by law, you are a citizen of the United States. He wants to deport those citizens. Matt. Now I have a better solution. Yeah. Why don't we Deport the 12% of Americans are eating all that beef? That's why. That's my solution. Where would we send them? I don't know. It doesn't. Who cares? What do I care? It's not my problem. You think Vivica is a plan to where to send these people? He doesn't care. We get Deport them back to well. When you Deport somebody, you're sending them back somewhere, okay? What to like South Africa, or like Italy? I don't. What's that my problems? All right, most dystopian headlines. Oh, I don't know the way ready for all of our listeners and that's probably three of you. These are all this. Everything here is real, this is all real. Our show is always based all unreal. And my choice is here are in fact, the correct choices. Here we go. Most dystopian headline. And again, these are all headlines that I have that we have collected in our database since Friday. This whole show has been just been stories since Friday. And we, we categorize these in a bunch of categories. We make these available on our website, free flow analytics.com. So, if you want to see more of the headlines that we curate, please go to our platform for free flow, analytics.com. So, most is topping headline. Walmart is making an unusual move to deter theft by building, a mini, police station inside. One of its stores, I don't like Burmese pythons are being spotted farther and farther north in Florida. Warming temperatures from climate change. Could help python spread Beyond Florida. I don't like this. Okay. Also not great. Billionaire VC Market recent. Well, welcome to the symbiotic. AI future the quote, it's going to be a much better way to live. I don't like that. That's not true. No and finally according to the UN rights Chief Volker Turk, climate change dystopian future already here. Wow. So that's a that's a doozy of a list there. What do you got? What do you think? Oh, man. Um, I mean I would I would normally say the correct answer is the dystopian future of climate change is already here. Okay but that's not the most dystopian headline here because That headline exists. Like every day at this point. Like we got like seven hurricanes out in the Atlantic right now just like hanging around. I'm gonna go with Burmese pythons. What? I'm gonna go with Yeah. Great dancer though. Just think about this. The number of species that are going to move to your house. I look, I want a full accounting of that this is important for most of us in the Northeast region because a lot of us, end up living here and choose to live here, because we we look at the book that tells you that there are no. Like there are really very few or none. Dangerous exotic species out there that are coming to get exotic species. Like you moved to New England, which is where we are based and you in the United States, because there aren't earthquakes, there aren't tornadoes, there aren't tsunamis, they're just acorns, they're just like, yeah, there's like beautiful foliage acorns and chipmunks and that's what we came for. Yeah, we don't have a Burmese python fucking Burmese pythons that we have to deal with and like crocodiles and like like sea level rise isn't gonna white out the entire of we actually in all the future water reports. Like everybody else has no water and they're like Two places in the world that have it and we're one of them, right? Like There's just a lot to like about living here. And Burmese pythons is not one of the things and now that's the one that feels the mostest opinion. It's personal personal dystopia. Moving on, motorized most pointless corporate headline. Most pointless corporate headline. Ooh, is this pulled from like press releases. Sure, here we go. Most pointless corporate headline. Google Will require advertisers to add disclosures for AI generated election ads. Right, and what's that gonna solve? What are we doing here? No, this was created by AI. Yeah, AI the no. Oh yeah. Oh okay. All right. Well now I will listen to this one or how about this? One. Tom Brady works for Delta now as a strategic advisor. that's, Delta can't get. Worried about having Tom Brady. Yeah. And his deep experience in running, an airline strategically advised them when they can't get an airplane on time, they have the oldest board. We did like we've looked at the data like they have one like doing them in South West is like old people they're backtracking on all their like carbon neutral. What do we? If I were Tom Brady and I were going in and Advising I'd say you said you were going to do all these things, have you done them? And then they would say well no. And then Tom The way you advise them is, you say, then you're not doing your job, you're you're failing. I'll say this. According to our data, women on the board of Delta, represent only 16% of total influence. And this is not a company that's dominated by one person. Like, Mark Zuckerberg, or Howard Schultz. I know only 60% of info. So really Gisele would have been a better choice, right? I mean, why, what are we doing with Tom? Brady, I mean I'm gonna go but I don't think that's most points. I think that's most comedic. I think the most pointless is definitely Google adding disclosures. Okay, moving on because come on. Yeah, best few more today. A few more. Best CEO in trouble with the law. Headline, not Tyson Foods, not Tyson Foods, that was a CFO. How dare you best CEO in trouble with the law headline, CEO arrested on luxury yacht. After woman told police she did not feel safe on board. This is CEO. Scott Burke a company in Colorado, called injury Finance. He was arrested in Nantucket, here's why I pointed out the story. Because I, I just I Marvel at the way the corporate world works. So, This, this headline was a couple of days ago. Since then, the company and I looked. So this is why I love the way back machine. For those of you who are young, the way back machine takes snapshots of websites to see what, you know, what was on the website? Just what a Gen X passed. Yeah. I love the way back machine for research like this. A mere five days ago. CEO Scott Burke was part of this of the About Us section about how we found of the company. They're kissing his ass, he's already scrubbed from the website. Wow, this is how you handle. This is how you handle the world in corporate world, I guess. Is you just scrub things and all. So you'd be interested to know. Matt that Scott Burke's son. Connor is the company CIO and his daughter. Jessica is the vice president of Business Development. So I thought Did they get scrubbed? Know, they're still there. That's the first see you in trouble with the law. And the second one is a CEO for Rook fatigue ozair. Of collapsed crypto exchange though, decks gets 11,196 year jail sentence. Woo, finally held to account. What is that? 11,000 11,100. I mean, I thought 11,000 years sounded like a lot, but they didn't, when I look at the 196 years, I was like, that sounds like a lot too. I don't know. I'm like, which is worse. 196 years or 11,000 years, I don't even know. Wait but was 11,000 like the final number like, what was the actual number? The actual number? I pulled this from the story, 11,196 years, 10 months and 15 days. Wow, that's what I like the most, the specificity. Yeah. Even the 10 months and 15 days kind of frightens me. A little. Can you imagine, like, at 11,000, 10096 years, 10 months, and 12 days. He's, like, come on, just like, it's been over. 11,000 years. Can I get out now? So, what's the best seat in trouble with the law headlines? I'm gonna go with 11,000 days. Yeah, that one has to be the correct answer, right? Yeah. I mean our 11,000 years 11,000 year jail sentence. Yeah. I mean, at some point you're just like Just tap it at forever, but just, you don't need to have the number of years. And and finally, and Today's show us September 11th 2023. This is the Arbiter of Truth special. We because of Because of technical difficulties. Is that the right way to explain it? We we had to skip our Friday show on Friday. So Matt, I took all the categories for Friday. I stripped out all the nonsense and you're gonna weigh into what would have won. All the categories. I like this ready. My new favorite story of the way. We do this every Friday. Yes, story of the week. This is for last week's stories. Disney's wildest ride igar chapek and the making of an epic succession mess. That was a huge, very interesting article on, CNBC okay? Yeah. If you haven't read that article, you want to know why we do a lot of what we do. It's kind of embedded in there, like, it talks about how I grow hand, picked the board over 15 years, how how the interplay of power and Dynamics at Disney worked, great story and story of the week, he bypassed the succession planning process that should have been controlled by the board of the nomination committee by basically going on a hunch. Yeah. And he's, he nominated to the board saying, like, this is our guy and they were like, are you sure? And he was like, yep. And that was the succession plan and then it didn't work out. Yeah, so shocked. That was the first story. The Weeknd the glass Cliff continues. We talked about the new CEO Quantus. Vanessa, Hudson who is cleaning up another shit show. So the second story of the week, third story of the week, Elon Musk, blames the Anti-Defamation League for destroying the, basically, the entire value of his company, Twitter X, whatever. Yeah, and the fourth I was going to threaten to sue them in the fourth story of the week in the first Monopoly trial of the modern internet era. The us is going after Google. I think that trial starting this week. Is that right? Yeah, it's really fast. Yeah, I I, for me, it would come down between the glass cliff and the Monopoly trial and I think it's the Monopoly trial and I think that for two reasons, number one, I I don't know why they chose Google who has The better product than Facebook meta who has like maybe the least the last destructive product. Maybe I mean I don't know. They're they're all fairly terrible for Humanity. Yeah. but I do think that, like, Like Zuckerberg owns 90% of one thing, right? And Google owns 90% of another thing which is search and social media is, is basically. And I think searching for shit is significantly, less worse for society than watching heinous videos, and having 14 year olds die, from well chip challenges alphabet. Does own YouTube. Of course they do they do and they have their own problems. But they do not. That is like a small sliver of social media compared to what Zuckerberg owns. Zuckerberg owns. The way most people communicate with one another now. Yeah Google owns the way most people search for rubber ducks. Yeah. The internet right? Like true. Which one seems fucking worse to you? So, I like that, this is happening because it needs to, and I like that, both companies are fake public companies. So Google is not a real public company owned by Larry. According to New York Times the 10 week trial set to begin tomorrow. There we go. I like that should be live stream the entire trial. Yes, a good list or the week will only have two choices from our notes. Ryanair, CEO. Michael O'Leary hit with cream, pies by climate protesters. Okay, yeah. All right. Yeah. That was while he was complaining about air traffic controllers going on strike, I think then they hit him with a pie and second President Biden bars, oil drilling, across a wide swath of Alaska's Arctic I mean, given that these are my only options. I'm gonna go with the second one. It's not the pies. Well, you're part of the problem. I don't think you submitted a good list. I didn't know. I asked holy a story of the week. This is a category controlled by you. The three, the three options first, the great article by Sharon Bentley. Hamlin, has she gone off the rails? That was a wonderful article where she that the reason why there aren't more women in management at some of these firms is that they're not competent enough. No. She said specifically. Yeah, it would be great to add women if they were competent, if they have those women haven't come forward. So she didn't say there were in incompetent women. She's just said, oh, it's their fault, they're not on the board. Okay, come forward. They haven't, they haven't the company will ones. I think I'm forward. The networking disaster created by the men. Over the last 7,000 years, they haven't figured out, it's the women that's the point. Number two, second as holiest, story as holiest choice. You was, you went right after the chair of the Tesla's, nominating committee era, Aaron Price. He controls 5% of the influence on Tesla because I'm guessing Elon Musk has roughly like 70% of the importance. And the reason why you targeted era Ira is that he claims to have governance and legal expertise, according to the company's skills Matrix, And you're wondering why? Given this. He doesn't this, he doesn't fire. Probably, the biggest governance disaster of a CEO at any company, Tesla, CEO, Elon Musk. So, last week, you pulled. No fewer than 15, I'm not weak. Just that, and that was just that week, right? Like that was just like Monday to Wednesday, and they were all horrible. And I can't understand how the head of the nominating committee. Doesn't say I have governance in and legal expertise. This is a governance problem and a legal problem. We need to have a different CEO, okay? You don't have to wait into the muck for this. You could just be like, don't have to go that far. You could just be like, dude, you you spend all your time running X and Twitter whatever it's called that could be enough, right? And really do much more than that. And when you're not doing that, you're running SpaceX, and you're turning off satellites and for the Ukraine war, because you don't feel like it and you are working on, don't die, soaking Global anti-Semitism, how about that? And and then in your spare time, you're inserting ships into monkeys. Okay, control their dogs. I mean, come on. Okay, third asshole of the week, speaking of the athlete, you just talked about, you had a category called blaming the Jews first. The course, Elon, musk's epic antique Library Day weekend against the Jews and second, this is a story out of Malaysia Malaysia. Where is it done? No India's India. Adani, who's been, who's been on fire from every direction in the last six months? He's been called out by like a million research forums about how he's basically running a sham of an Empire. Yeah, Ponzi scheme, he is now blaming Soros funded interests after media, raise new questions about the business Empire and according to you, Matt, George the Soros funded interest represents. It's only 4% of total funding at an organization that Roots out corruption so I don't. Yeah that's just like blatant silly. I mean semitism. Yeah yeah. So they they basically said that it's like they implied that when you say Soros funded interests, You're saying either Progressive liberal and or Jew, right? Like there's no, no other thing, which means you're just saying, like, Jewish people are attacking me Jewish progressives, I don't even Jewish progressives when the funding is like a minuscule amount of that one media firm that they're pointing out right. Like, well, he's trying to get the anti Bud. Light people on to join his right. Like he wants to stoke that kind of reason why they're under Fire is because Hindenburg research which has nothing to do with Sorrows. Wrote a giant and I mean, multi-hundred page, research paper pointing out how a Donnie basically is a Ponzi scheme. Basically died down. He's a Hindenburg essentially. I don't understand how like now we're talking about Soros like now we're in flail. You know crazy true. You know, look at this. Is you over there? Look, I mean like, what is that? Yeah, all right, yeah. So yeah, which is the asshole. That's I'm gonna go with because I can't go with Ira because it's like Perpetual, I'm gonna go share and Bentley. Oh, what? I'm going to go with. Yeah, like it. Um, because She, she works at Aubrey Capital Management. She's directed their, what she said in the article was we have like a good gender balance. That's what she says, in the article, about Aubrey Capital Management, and we spent Wednesday ripping apart, how 100% of their portfolio, managers are male 88% of the investment. Team is male, the two women other than her who are on the investment team are Junior and do the ESG stuff, right? Like so they they have no power and she has effectively the, the hood Spa to go out and say, We do women. Well, and women are to blame for not having board seats. Maybe she didn't realize that she was posting this to like an actual publication. Maybe she thought, no one was gonna redraw. Yes at management. Yeah, okay. Yeah. So that's the as holiest of the week and finally, the most the exhausting is, this is a category compiled by Jesse. The money Whisperer. Who got married for the like, 400 times this weekend this year I heard it was a learning A Burning Man. Muddy disaster. That's what I heard it would first four hours, were delightful. And then the next four hours were there for the fyre festival. He were there. No, I was there. I was there for one hour. I was congratulations, during the delightful part. Okay. But apparently, it was the first four hours of which I was a part of one and already came to was delightful, we all celebrated Jesse's love for the 73rd time and then the four hours after that. Yeah. Was basically the fyre festival. Where Everyone was like huddled under tents and eating you know, bologna sandwiches and there's mud everywhere. Here's where she picked exhausting us of the week left for last week, corporate obsession with productivity. She gives two examples bosses are tracking how long you're working and using it to judge your performance and leaked. Microsoft documents reveal a new employee rating system only visible to managers. I like I want to, I want to see that they should make that public. Yeah, okay, around that. Yeah. And we can start a fantasy like worker League. I like that one. The number two exhausting. And so the week September 5th was equal housework day. It's time for women to quit housework against. So this is based on reporting that. The average woman spends so much more time on chores than the average man that to equalize the load. Women would have to quit the housework entirely on September 5th for the remaining. Wow. Yeah and this up what day the good news is that this is actually an improvement from last year which is August 29th because Matt based on the research men are doing 12 minutes more a day of chores this year. Although wow. Five minutes more this year. I don't get that. Why, why is there a minute? It's a net, a net. Yeah, Net 7 Minute bonus there. Yeah, well Look. That's that's like How many that's like? Four and a half tiktoks. You can watch it's pretty good. That's equal housework day and the third exhausting a story of the week zooms. New AI tool will tell you if you're bad at meeting. Thing I ever heard really honestly I love that but is stupid thing I've ever heard but I want I mean I do I wanna I actually I do want to play with it. I actually would like to be evaluated does it. What? I mean how does it tell you? Does it tell you like in order to improve this meeting? Consider blah, blah blah? Or is it more like that was not greater? Maybe checks how many times you said the word um or like where what you were staring at or maybe like what you were also surfing while you're on the meeting? I don't know. I have no idea really. This I really think that they could tell their dirty little AI hands into really want them to say that was not great. Like you you too many Cheetos I do I do like this is like Zoom change their if you remember from this show zoom and changed it, their terms of service so that all zooms would be fed into AI to teach it. Which then a week later after they done that with all the ai's during that week, Or all the calls during that week, they changed it back so you can't do that without consent. But now they have a new AI tool to sell your, your bad at meetings which means people will opt in for the joke of. Let's see if I'm bad at meetings and then it will use all of that. I'll be that idiot. You'll be the idiot telling Zoom everything. Um, I'm gonna go with the September 5th was equal housework day, okay. All right, what what I like about that is? We have figured out a way to Mark the day on the calendar. For almost every thing that we take advantage of some other group of people, you know. Right. Like, it's, I like the act of constantly, like, the entire calendar could be like, this is like trans black. Female day and like that would be like in February probably that'd be like January 3rd and would be like, this is the day that CEOs, make more have made more than trans black female earns in her year. Write a lifetime. Let's let's just make a day all the time. I like, all right, I feel exhausted by that answer but Matt, you got the entire quiz the right correct. Write your truth is is true. That's it. That's all I got. That's the best. And most likely outcome, considering I played against myself. As Damian Rallis, I'm the analyst soulmate of Scotty. We are free float Vivek. That's what truth sounds like when you actually analyze the real headlines, And realize that they're not actually which one the best that's true because no one no one anywhere could even complain about that. We'll be back again on Wednesday with more business fans until then goodbye.
