Today: 60 Minutes fallout; AI company IPOs; there's a new sheriff at the Fed; the NBA Finals; and our usual predictive nonsense.

Robert went to Israel for a few days and all he got was 6 weeks in a bomb shelter. We talk today about the Iran conflict; its effect on the world and on midterm elections; the US possibly leaving NATO; the weirdest things either of us has ever eaten in the world; and more. Plus, our usual predictive nonsense. Stick around.

Today we tackle world events -- so many world events, lots of world events, very strong, world events the likes of which some people say we have never seen before -- also AI deep fakes, midterm elections under threat, the situation in Iran -- and our guesses about what may happen next -- and Minnesota. Also, Candace Owens is outing time travellers or something? Stick around.

We're taking a media deal deep-dive: there's Paramount and Netflix in a cage match over Warner Bros / Discovery; Disney's new deal for its IP with Open AI; and the legal issues surrounding them all. Plus, the valuation of SpaceX and our NFL predictions. Stick around and find out!

Today it's all about the Usual Suspects: the government has shut itself down for yet another week; there's an NBA gambling scandal; workforce layoffs; an epic World Series that has led to salary cap predictions; the usual tariff chaos; plus, our usual predictions, this time in the worlds of interest rate cuts, studio mergers, layoffs, and much more.

Today we wonder if Trump ever sleeps; whether we're going to war with Venezuela; China's leadership; why talk show hosts are getting suspended; and more. Plus, predicting the price of gold, the length of the government shutdown, how free speech will be in the near future, whether the Jets will win another game this year, and other important subjects.

Today we're talking about social media sickness, Russian war games near Poland, Venezuela's alleged cartel boats, a scandal at a chocolate factory, golden shares, tariffs, and our usual market predictions. Plus -- we bet on how long we think Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift will last. Prepare to hate us more than you already do.

Today we look at China’s upcoming 5-Year Plan, the dubious ways its provinces use to extract money from the central government, China’s newly warming relationship with India, America’s growing interest in taking stakes in its own private companies, and what the rest of the world thinks about all this. Plus, a look back at the brief, beautiful business of the Home Video industry, the Epstein Files, the GDP report and much more -- such as the story about the random lady who once tried to crap in Robert’s house.

Today we're diving into the decline and fall of Western Civilization party life, a bunch of fake tariff deals, Intel in crisis mode, the Gerrymander wars, sports betting, what's new in South Park, and eternal goddess Rita Hayworth. Also, market predictions. What could go wrong?

Today we're looking at you, Paramount merger deal democracy threatener. Also, kiss cam chaos, Jerome Powell needs a hardhat, Ozzy Osbourne and other Ozzies, the Cambodia situation from an insider's perspective, and our usual market predictions for the week. We're going off the rails on a crazy train.
