Welcome to episode 190 of What Are We Doing! If you’ve ever wondered what I’ve been hiding in this briefcase, buckle up, because today I finally (almost) reveal the ultra-secret, super-exclusive gadget that’s been taking over Wan Pod Studios—though you’ll have to hit subscribe and ring that bell if you want to be among the first mortals to see it in all its glory.We kick things off with a studio update: not only am I toying with an alien invasion down here in the Levi McCurdy hemisphere, but we’re also launching a brand-new, music-and-amps podcast straight out of our guitar shop haven. If you’re into pet oils, power chords, or pondering why guitars have volume knobs but no “volume demon”—this one’s for you.Then it’s on to crypto chaos: Bitcoin just blasted through $111,000—yes, you heard that right—and I’m praying to the crypto gods (hand motions included) that it holds. Meanwhile, XRP could double and solve half our national debt, so let’s get those banks onboard! I even touch on the ever-lovely Hailey Welch and her constant need to convince us all that “snipers” lost money in that wild token scam—spoiler: regular folks got tanked too, Hailey.Wedding news: thanks to Bitcoin bull runs, we can finally afford to wrap up this wedding thing—Mexico, mid-July, beach vibes, open bar, please send tequila—and then I’ll promptly bounce back for a $10,000 server bill. Because powering an empire isn’t free, folks.Next, we roast the latest DoorDash + Klarna fiasco: financing your Crunchwrap like it’s a mortgage? Eat now, cry later, America. Klarna’s Q1 losses doubled to $150 million because apparently we’d rather pay $4 now and forget about it for three weeks than cough up $17—psychology 101. And if you want to short them, remember: the CEO just used an AI avatar to tell his board they could fire him and save millions. What are we doing?Shifting gears, we dive into the New Orleans jailbreak: ten dangerous felons, an inside job that involved turning off water and tagging “Too Easy →” on the wall (with a misspelled “two,” bless them). Half are back in cuffs, but three are still on the run—bet on Poly Market whether they’ll be caught before GTA VI drops. Giddy up.Massive shout-out to Dude Robe for sponsoring today’s episode—your gift-card stint at Home Depot ain’t gonna cut it this Father’s Day. Treat your pops to the ultimate hooded towel-hybrid: the Reversible Dude Hoodie, plus a matching robe (use code WOD for 20% off). Because Dad deserves more than socks.Finally, we blast through AI madness: Google IO’s new Gemini tricks (live Meet translations, AI-powered try-ons so you can see yourself in that dress before you buy it), Video 3 and Google Flow that could have Spielberg calling for an agent, and OpenAI’s $6.5 billion “IO” jab at Google, featuring Jony Ive’s comeback to hardware design. If you’re not experimenting with AI yet, congrats—you’ve already missed the boat.That’s a wrap on 190—if you’re still with me, hit like, subscribe, and ring that bell so you don’t miss the big briefcase reveal, the new podcast launch, or my inevitable meltdown when I discover I’ve spent all my Bitcoin on dad-jokes. I’ve got to pick up my kid, DJ a wedding tomorrow, then sprint to Philly for a Post Malone weekend (Cheesecake Factory runs included).Happy Memorial Day, enjoy the holiday, and I’ll catch you next Friday. Peace out—what are we doing?
