Microsoft spends $35 billion building the infrastructure of intelligence. Meta doubles down on AI. Google beats expectations. The Fed cuts rates but warns of uncertainty. And OpenAI lays the groundwork for a $1 trillion IPO.

In The Update: Inside the Intelligence Boom, Kala breaks down how power, money, and human behavior are colliding to rewire the modern world. From markets and policy to technology and psychology, this is where the story of the next economy unfolds — and where you learn to read the system for yourself.

Recorded October 29, 2025 — the 96-year anniversary of Black Tuesday, as Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia hit record highs.

Ninety-six years after the market fell apart on Black Tuesday, every major sector just hit record highs. Apple’s flirting with $4 trillion. Nvidia just crossed $5 trillion and is hosting its AI conference in Washington. Amazon quietly turned on an $11 billion data-center city in Indiana—built exclusively for Anthropic—to rival OpenAI. The Department of Energy is calling these sites “intelligence factories.” The Fed speaks at 2 p.m. The earnings flood hits at 4 p.m. Trump meets Xi tomorrow.

Kala connects the dots between 1929 and 2025 — the week when history and technology switched places. She breaks down what it means for leaders, investors, and the working class as America re-industrializes on purpose. Power, manufacturing, AI, education, and policy are colliding in real time — and this episode shows you where it’s all headed.

Listen before the bell. History’s repeating — just in reverse.

This week, everything connects — the markets, the military, and the media.

We break down why the Fed’s next move could shake Wall Street, how Trump’s sit-down with Xi might redraw the AI supply chain, and what Microsoft isn’t telling you about its OpenAI exposure. Then we shift to hard power — the U.S. quietly positioning forces near Venezuela under the label of “narcoterrorism” — and the Category 5 hurricane now crawling toward Jamaica.

Plus: the NBA’s gambling scandal, the NFL’s integrity problem, and why Condé Nast is turning journalism into a luxury brand just as OpenAI launches a browser that can literally remember you.

It’s one of those weeks where every system — financial, political, technological, and human — is being stress-tested in real time.

This is your Monday Morning Rundown.

Amazon calls it “advanced technology.” The leaked documents call it what it is — robots replacing 600,000 jobs. Kala breaks down Amazon’s automation plan, how it reshapes the economy, and why Washington still isn’t ready for what’s coming.

This one almost didn’t make it to air. The AWS outage that darkened half the internet—Snapchat, Amazon, even our own studio software—pushed The Press Company offline until after midnight. But we’re back, and there’s a lot to cover.

Inside the Monday Morning Rundown:
 • Washington’s government shutdown enters week three, stalled over healthcare
 • U.S. strikes off Venezuela’s coast blur the line between drug war and politics
 • The digital blackout exposes how fragile our online world really is
 • OpenAI, Broadcom, and the trillion-dollar race to power the AI economy
 • Biotech’s surprise comeback and what’s fueling it
 • And in sports, the Buckeyes dominate, the Chiefs return to form, and the NFL turns chaotic

A late upload — but worth the wait. Enjoy the Monday Morning Rundown.

They say your body is your temple — but these days, it’s also a data stream. From your sleep score to your heart rate, everything you track comes with a price. Kala traces how your health data became a $100 billion market — and what happens when privacy turns into profit.

A sleep ring worth $11 billion says it can “change behavior.” Kala looks at the paradox of modern health tech—how innovation keeps driving prices up, not down, and what that says about who gets to live well.

Everything around us is speeding up — technology, markets, even our thoughts. But if we’re honest, most of us don’t feel faster. We feel scattered, stretched, and searching for meaning in the middle of motion.

In this episode, Kala reflects on focus — what it means, why we’ve lost it, and how it connects to the systems shaping our lives. From AI data centers and energy deals to healthcare, education, and our overstimulated brains, she explores how expansion has become the new reflex of modern life — and why purpose can’t survive without focus.

This is a conversation about alignment — personal, political, and planetary.
Because if we can’t decide what matters most, the noise will decide for us.

Kala sits down for an unplanned Saturday conversation to talk directly with listeners about what’s next. The company is growing fast, the work is expanding, and the show is evolving to match. The themes you’ve loved — the rundowns, reports, and reflections — aren’t gone. They’re becoming something bigger. Kala shares why she’s simplifying the format, how she plans to keep showing up every week with intention, and what this next chapter means for All Too Human and The Press Company.
