About this listen

Caleb and Adriele go through the week’s news including Nikki Haley’s ongoing campaign and the $83.3 million decision against Trump. They also look at evidence that consumer spending is fueling better than expected economic growth before jumping into Taylor Swift deepfakes and the FTC launching inquiries into AI deals by tech giants, plus a Cloudflare controversy involving the CEO’s response to a recorded firing.

Next, they go deep on a study that says young workers see what life looks like for their managers and are saying, “No, thanks.” Is this a short term or long term issue? What is it about being a manager that is so unattractive to young people? [29:31] And they consider the cost to companies who have traditionally been politically neutral remaining silent on sociopolitical issues in an election year. [44:03] All that plus local governments are erasing medical debts, and Amazon is starting to reject police requests for security videos from its Ring doorbells.
