  • A Taylor Swift Super Bowl & A Bad Week for Crypto Kingpin Sam Bankman-Fried | What are We Doing #115

    What's up everybody! Welcome back to another episode of the What Are We Doing Podcast. I'm your host Levi McCurdy, and this week we have some crazy crypto crime stories to talk about.

    First up - the founders of SafeMoon have been charged by the Department of Justice with running a massive crypto fraud scheme. According to the indictment, SafeMoon lied to investors by claiming their funds were safely locked in pools to help the token's liquidity. In reality, the founders were secretly diverting tens of millions into their own pockets to fund lavish lifestyles. The SEC has filed similar civil charges against the company.
    SafeMoon's token was promoted by Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy and grew to have a market cap of over $8 billion in 2021. But it's since come crashing down after the Ponzi scheme was revealed. This is yet another cautionary tale about the risks of crypto speculation. The DOJ agent on the case called it "insatiable greed" - and that seems to be a perfect summary.
    Our other main story is the conviction of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried on 7 counts of fraud. The verdict came after a wild 4-week trial that gave us a fascinating look inside SBF's corrupt crypto empire.
    Prosecutors successfully argued that Bankman-Fried secretly misused billions in customer funds from FTX to make risky bets at his hedge fund Alameda Research. The government slammed his actions as one of the biggest financial frauds in history.
    Some crazy details emerged during the trial. We learned how SBF bought a $40 million penthouse for him and his inner circle in the Bahamas. And how he donated millions in FTX customer funds to political groups.
    One by one, SBF's close friends like Gary Wang and Caroline Ellison turned on him after pleading guilty themselves. Their testimony showed how Bankman-Fried directed the criminal activity despite publicly claiming innocence.
    SBF took the very risky move of testifying in his own defense. But he wilted under intense questioning from the prosecution, who used his past words against him. The "math nerd" defense clearly didn't convince the jury.
    Now he's facing decades in prison when he's sentenced in March. The downfall is just incredible for the guy who was the king of crypto just last year. From a $35 million penthouse to a jail cell - talk about a fall from grace!
    Let me know what you think about these stories and the justice being served! Is it enough to deter future crypto frauds? Or just the cost of doing business for schemes like this?
    Looking forward to your feedback. And make sure to hit subscribe for more episodes analyzing the crazy world of crypto each week. Thanks for listening!
    PS: We also talk about Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce - of course.

  • I'm Taking Taylor Swift & Britney Spears to The Cheesecake Factory | What are We Doing Podcast #114

    WAWD Squad! It's your host Levi McCurdy back with another hilarious episode of the What Are We Doing podcast. Thanks for tuning in and showing some love!
    This week I'm coming at you live in my butter costume because I'm on a roll with the podcast! Got the boy dressed up as Luigi and my dog Lou Bug rockin' a makeshift Jeff Bezos outfit. We're going big for Halloween this year! But enough goofing around - let's get to the juice!
    First up, I've gotta dish about Taylor Swift's new romance with NFL stud Travis Kelce. Seeing them together has me shipping harder than Amazon Prime! Get this - Kelce's stats show he averages 99 yards when Taylor attends his games, but only 46 yards when she's absent. Talk about a playoff performance boost!
    As much as I love Tayvis (yeah, I'm trying to make it happen), Tay's rigorous touring schedule has me worried. Can Kelce's bod handle Swifty's dance routines after his Sunday scrimmages? Not to mention her ex-lover Harry Styles – pretty boy was more concerned with playing dress-up in Taylor's wardrobe than heating up the sheets, if you know what I mean.
    But enough about Taylor's love life - let's talk about the woman, the myth, the legend herself - Britney Spears! Her new memoir has me gagging with some piping hot tea. Who knew she secretly locked lips with JT during a Mickey Mouse Club sleepover? And her steamy fling with Colin Farrell? Just wild stuff!
    Of course, I've got plenty of thoughts on the conservatorship drama too. It's clear Jamie Spears abused his power as Britney's father and manager. The whole thing crushed Brit's soul and robbed her creativity, even as the cash rolled in. I'm telling you, that man deserves serious consequences for exploiting his own daughter!
    Alright WAWD Squad, this next story has me scheming up business ideas with magician Max Major. Ya'll heard of McKamey Manor? It's an extreme haunted house that terrifies people using hypnosis instead of actual torture. Genius! Max and I should open our own hypno-house to traumatize and get rich! I'm seeing dollar signs baby!
    Okay, switching gears to a viral first date list that's got me firing up hot takes. Who says Applebee's and Olive Garden are off-limits for date #1? Grab those unlimited breadsticks and let the romance flow! But you know I stand firm on hitting the Cheesecake Factory. A first date there proves our compatibility - and leaves room for more brown bread.
    Whew, another wild ride this week folks! Smash that subscribe button and be sure to follow Widecast Podcast on Instagram for extra content. The WAWD Squad's support means everything as I take this podcast into the stratosphere. Love ya'll and see you next time!

  • Millennials Become BOOMER Parents on Facebook? 😱 EXPOSING CRINGE Posts | What are We Doing #113

    Hey everyone, it's Levi here with another fun episode of my podcast! Have you seen what the boomers are up to on Facebook lately? It's pretty wild. 😳
    In episode 114, I talk about the questionable posts my fellow millennials are sharing online. We're officially becoming our parents! 👵👴
    I read two interesting Facebook posts from people I went to high school with. Get this - my buddy Carl is trying to sell USED CEMETERY PLOTS on Facebook Marketplace! 💀 I joke about buying both and burying my divorced parents together as the ultimate prank. 😂
    Or I could give away the other plot in a contest and let a fan get buried beside me! Would you want your final resting place to be next to your favorite podcaster? Let me know in the comments! 👇
    Then there's Karen complaining because the guy at Royal Farms cut her sub AFTER wrapping it. 🙄🥪 I defend this normal sandwich-making practice and say Karen is overreacting!
    I even have my friend Quavo as an "expert witness" to back me up that wrapping then cutting a hoagie is standard. Case dismissed, Karen! 👩‍⚖️
    Throughout this episode, I poke fun at how we millennials are slowly becoming like boomers. 👵 Selling random items online, griping about minor issues, obsessed with suburbia. It's true!
    It reminds me of the odd gifts my mom Sandy buys from Facebook ads. 😂 Like circular ice scrapers and squeegees as gifts last year! Pretty funny.
    This episode lightheartedly mocks boomers' social media habits. I play exaggerated characters that will have you chuckling. 😄
    If you want a humorous take on millennials turning into boomers, this fun podcast episode is a must-listen!
    Hit that subscribe button if you want more episodes of "What Are We Doing"! I hope you enjoy this one.

  • Will Smith NOW On Dating Apps With Jada Pinkett Separation Since 2016 | What are We Doing #112

    Hey everyone! Buckle up because we've got piping hot tea to spill today - Jada Pinkett Smith just revealed that she and Will Smith have been secretly separated since 2016!
    I could barely believe it when I heard Jada confess that she and Will have been living totally separate lives for years now. They made the difficult decision to split back in 2016 after nearly 20 years of marriage. But here's the bombshell - they never actually filed for divorce!
    Jada shared this revelation in a new interview with NBC's Hoda Kotb. She explained that by 2016, she and Will were completely exhausted and stuck in a fantasy about who they thought the other should be. So they divided, but never took the step to legally divorce.
    This is absolutely wild because Jada and Will always posed together at events and talked about their relationship publicly. So no one had any idea what was going on behind the scenes!
    It makes you wonder why they hid the separation so long. Jada says they just weren't ready to announce it as they were still evolving their partnership. But 6 years is a long time to keep up appearances, especially when you look at all the drama their marriage has faced publicly.
    This definitely adds new perspective to Jada's "entanglement" with August Alsina, Will slapping Chris Rock, and more. They went through major controversies as a secretly separated couple!
    Now this revelation does align with some vague comments Jada has made over the years about complications in her marriage with Will. But she never let on just how official their split was.
    Of course, we're left with so many questions! Are Will and Jada allowed to date other people? What's their relationship like now after years apart? Do they still talk or see each other?
    Jada says she made a promise never to divorce. But will they ever file the paperwork to make it official? This has to be a crazy situation for their kids too.
    Hopefully Jada will share more details in her upcoming memoir and full interview with Hoda Kotb. But I'm dying to know what you guys think! Were you shocked to learn Will and Jada have been secretly broken up since 2016? Do you think they'll ever actually divorce?
    Let me know in the comments! And get ready, because there is sure to be nonstop coverage of this bombshell revelation in the days to come. Will and Jada's marital status has been turned upside down!

  • Adam Ruins The Writers Strike & Now I'm President of Pennsylvania | What are We Doing Podcast #111

    The episode kicks off with Levi's reaction to the nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System. He was right in the middle of an intense Wordle game when the alert startled him. Levi thinks the test is important for emergency preparedness but argues the government could have picked a better time. He proposes that future tests be accompanied by complimentary bacon deliveries to make up for causing panic.

    Moving on, Levi discusses the end of the lengthy Hollywood writer's strike and the return of late night shows like Jimmy Kimmel and James Corden. As a big fan, Levi is excited for the return of his late night viewing routine. He admits he's had trouble falling asleep without monologue zingers to unwind to. A highlight of the segment is Levi passionately defending Jimmy Kimmel against criticisms of being unfunny. He argues Kimmel's rapport with sidekick Guillermo is comedy gold.
    Next up, Levi analyzes Travis Kelce's rumored relationship with Taylor Swift. He remains skeptical, declaring any man who dates Swift is asking for trouble. Remember what happened to her past boyfriends like Jake Gyllenhaal? Levi wouldn't touch that tabloid drama with a 10-foot pole. He also jokes Kelce should enjoy the attention while he can before Swift inevitably writes a breakup song about him.
    Later, the discussion gets existential as Levi contemplates deeper questions about the universe. What are dreams and do we really have free will? He shares his beliefs about the afterlife and the odds of alien life existing. Levi gets fired up debunking religious ideas of heaven, asserting that consciousness likely ends at death. He argues passionately that imagination and science reveal more truths about reality than faith or religion.
    As the episode winds down, Levi weighs in on trending news like Kanye West's antics and the Travis Kelce babysitting debate. He also pitches some questionable business ideas that may or may not take off.
    In summary, this week's podcast covers a lot of ground from current events and celebrity gossip to philosophy and entrepreneurial schemes. Tune in to hear Levi's unique hot takes delivered in his signature opinionated yet thoughtful style. Like, subscribe and leave a review to show support for one of the most fascinating rising voices in podcasting. Thanks for listening!

  • Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce are doing WHAT!? + Student Loans Are Back What are We Doing Podcast #110

    STAGE FRIGHT LIVE FINALE - LIVE BATTLE OF THE BANDS OCTOBER 12: stagefrightlive.com

    We all know deep down that this Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce thing is a total sham. A complete Hollywood fabrication. This "relationship" is about as real as a Kardashian wedding.Come on people, wake up and smell the publicity stunt! Do you really think America's pop princess would fall for some random football hunk like a eighth grader with a crush? Absolutely not. This is Strictly Business with a capital B.Ever since Kelce admitted on a podcast that he tried and failed to meet Swift backstage, the PR masterminds have been scheming. You could practically hear the cha-ching of dollar signs ringing in their heads. A made-for-tabloids romance between these two? It's a viral, click-hungry match made in celebrity heaven.So they orchestrated some coy flirting and calculated "dates." Suddenly, Swift is conveniently photographed snuggling up to Kelce at a Chiefs game - with mama Kelce in tow for added wholesomeness! Please. Spare us the adorable meet-the-parents act!No one actually buys this, yet we eat up every crumb of contrived coverage. We can't get enough! We obsess over every "cozy" photo, even though it's as staged as a Sears portrait studio. We analyze their evasive comments, searching for proof of genuine passion. But this is all just clever image crafting and brand building at its finest.Do Travis and Taylor exchange longing glances over wine by candlelight? Ha! More like cackling over the media circus they've created over text messages from their publicity teams. This whole charade lets them extend their empires into new audiences.
    We shouldn't buy the hype, but we do because we crave the distraction and wish fulfillment. For a moment, we can get lost in a fantasy of fame, fortune and fairytale romance. We project our own desires onto these beautiful celebrities living out an orchestrated lie.But soon this manufactured magic will expire. The tabloids will cry "It's over!" to drum up more drama. Kelce will be cropped out of Swift's Instagram feed. A breakup album will drop. And we'll reminisce about when, for a brief shining moment, we thought love was real because we saw Travis and Taylor holding hands on TMZ. Sigh.Their astonishing careers and larger-than-life fame make “Taylor and Travis” seem inevitable as sports and music’s new power couple. But they face big challenges balancing their intense schedules and maintaining privacy. Only time will tell if these stars are headed for a touchdown or just a summer fling. For now, the world eagerly awaits each new development in this football meets pop culture love story.

  • FALL TV LINE UP ft Sophie Turner, Joe Jonas, Taylor Swift & Elizabeth Banks | What are We Doing #109

    The show kicks off with Levi previewing the onslaught of fall TV premieres headed your way. From returning favorites like Hell's Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares with Gordon Ramsay, to decade-spanning competitions like season 45 of Survivor, your DVR is about to get a major workout. We also get Levi's hot takes on the new Bachelor seasons (will he commit to recapping the "Golden Bachelor" spinoff?) and the highly-anticipated gameshow Snake in the Grass hosted by David Spade. But the premiere Levi is most excited for is season 2 of Press Your Luck with the "gorgeous" Elizabeth Banks. Get your whistles ready!After whetting your appetite for fall TV, the podcast takes a hard news turn as Levi dives into some of the most absurd recent headlines. First up is the unbelievable saga of the U.S. military losing complete control of a $100 million fighter jet during a routine test flight. Levi breaks down the ridiculousness of the world's most advanced military misplacing an incredibly expensive piece of equipment for several hours before it eventually crashed landed. The best part? The first eyewitness account of the rogue jet came from a random civilian named Randolph who described hearing "a screeching and a whistling" before a loud boom. Randolph's interview immediately goes viral. The news gets even more bizarre as Levi reads a handwritten letter sent to TMZ straight from Joe Exotic's prison cell. The Tiger King star dishes on his latest relationship drama after splitting from his boyfriend Seth. The letter is peak Joe Exotic, questioning why anyone would spread rumors about him and Seth breaking up, while also declaring "someone more mature" will be in his life soon. Levi reads the full letter in Exotic's voice for an absolutely hilarious segment. In more celebrity breakup news, Levi covers the "messy situation" unfolding between Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner. Things have gotten so bad that Taylor Swift is now hanging out with Sophie in what is surely an epic gossip fest over wine. But it turns out Joe might be preventing Sophie from taking their kids back to her native England. Can their divorce get any more complicated?After thoroughly summarizing the chaos surrounding Joe Exotic and these high-profile celebrity splits, Levi switches gears to close out the podcast with some lighter news. In what he describes as a "produce catastrophe," Levi reports that Shawn Mendes accidentally dropped an entire bag of groceries in his driveway. The video of a flustered Shawn chasing after rolling potatoes is the perfect palate cleanser after so much drama. From Fall TV insights to celebrity relationship meltdowns and viral moments, this episode of What Are We Doing has it all. Levi's passionate delivery and humorous injected commentary keeps this informal podcast feeling like you're just chatting with a friend about the latest headlines. That's the magic of What Are We Doing - it feels fun, fresh and unexpected while still keeping you up-to-date on news and pop culture.

  • NSYNC Reunites at MTV Movie Awards Before Unboxing Aliens in Mexico + Danilo Cavalcante CAPTURED!!

    Greetings earthlings and welcome back to another episode of What are We Doing with your host Levi! I've got a bananas show lined up today, packed with not 1, not 2, but 3 totally bonkers stories that will make you question reality.
    First up - escaped murderer Danelo Cavalcante was finally busted after evading capture for 2 weeks in Pennsylvania. This dude vanished like a ghost after busting out of jail Mission Impossible style. Authorities were on a wild goose chase trying to track him down, but Cavalcante was crawling through the woods and hiding in bushes like Rambo. We break down how the cops finally got him with infrared cameras and a police dog. What was this guy's plan after the escape? Did he really think he could hide in the wilderness forever like Bear Grylls? Or was he secretly trained by the Russian special forces? The story is wild from start to finish.
    Next we got the *NSYNC reunion NO ONE saw coming at the VMAs! It was a time warp back to the 90s with JT, JC, Joey, Lance and Chris hitting the stage together again after nearly a decade. We take a nostalgia trip and reminisce about our favorite *NSYNC moments, from the bleach blond hair to the questionable fashion choices. Were the VMA producers just feeling nostalgic or is this a sign of more *NSYNC action to come? We speculate on whether they'll bless us with new tunes or even a reunion tour. And maybe a collab with Backstreet Boys? A dude can dream right!
    Finally, we cover the straight-up alien corpses revealed at the Mexican Congress by "ufologist" Jaime Maussan. This dude rolled up with what he claimed were thousand year old mummified E.T.s as hardcore proof of extraterrestrial life. Of course scientists say they're just regular mummies, but Maussan is convinced they have giant alien brains and anatomy not of this world. We dive deep into the pics and debate if this is the ultimate smoking gun that we're not alone in the universe. Or is the Mexican government just trolling us to distract from other issues? Gotta admit, the timing is interesting!
    So strap in and get ready to laugh, cringe, and scratch your head as we break down these stories and more. Smash that like button with your third eye if you dig the podcast and want us to cover more supernatural mysteries

  • The Strange World of Facebook Marketplace & A Mini Movie Review | What are We Doing Podcast EP107
    🎥 Get ready to dive headfirst into the quirky, mysterious world of Facebook Marketplace with us! 😂
    🚫 Say goodbye to Twitter's negativity and TikTok's algorithmic whirlwind because we've found the ultimate time-sucking black hole: Facebook Marketplace! 🕳️
    💙 Now, I have to admit, Facebook isn't exactly my cup of tea. Those red notifications couldn't entice me to click that blue icon even if they tried. But one fateful evening, while ignoring the epic showdown of "The Chase" on TV, I rediscovered Marketplace - the same place my trusty sofa hailed from.
    🛋️ And let me tell you, from that moment on, I was hooked!
    💸 My Marketplace conquests include a sewing machine, a desk, and even my boyfriend's hardly-used bike. But the real treasure here is the bizarre, the hilarious, and the downright strange!
    🤯 Get ready to feast your eyes on listings with pictures so blurry that you'd think they were taken during a hurricane. Objects, like a can of Coke, serving as the universal scale of measurement, eerie Reborn baby dolls that could give Chucky a run for his money, and engagement rings galore (because love never goes out of style, right?).
    🤣 But that's not all! Marketplace has its own brand of comedy gold. From mirror selfies capturing both the item and the puzzled seller, to pets doing their darnedest to help sell a table or toy, and life-sized cardboard cutouts of folks like John Cena. Oh, and who could forget that Jabba the Hutt inflatable costume with the dramatic "last chance before removing ad" warning? It's a digital carnival of the absurd!
    🤪 But wait, there's more! Brace yourselves for the weirdest of the weird: homemade art that Picasso would envy, human hair wigs for those "bad hair days" on a whole new level, chilling mascot costumes that might haunt your dreams, and vintage gems like the "male and female urinal by Boots" or even "German World War Two memorabilia" (trust me, it's as bizarre as it sounds).
    🔍 Forget those Amazon life-hacks and obscure tools you "absolutely must buy." Facebook Marketplace offers a portal into the wonderfully wacky world of your own community, where the unexpected is just a click away. Join us on this wild ride, and who knows, you might just stumble upon your next impulse buy or a good laugh! 😆✨

  • TAYLOR SWIFT & THE ERAS TOUR | What Are We Doing Podcast Episode 106

    Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour is soaring through the music scene like a jet stream, and it's not just breaking records; it's breaking the bank by billions of dollars! I mean, who knew that Taylor Swift could make the economy dance to her tunes?According to the August survey data from research firm QuestionPro (yes, we got the exclusive scoop), this tour is a cash cow in the making. We're talking about a potential $2.2 billion just from North American ticket sales! That's enough to buy a small country or at least a few private islands.Now, you might be wondering, how do they come up with these numbers? Well, it seems like the average ticket price was a whopping $455.78. I mean, who needs a mortgage when you can buy a Swift ticket, right? And she had a total of 68 shows in North America, which, if my math is right, amounts to a whole lot of cash.But wait, there's more! The average attendance per show was around 72,459 people. That's enough to fill a small city, or at least a medium-sized stadium. So, $2.2 billion? That would make "Eras" the highest-grossing tour ever. Sorry, Elton John, your "Farewell Yellow Brick Road" tour is now a distant second.But it's not just about the money; it's about the experience. "Eras" has become the social event of the year. People are shelling out thousands of dollars on tickets, outfits, transportation, and accommodations. We're talking about serious dedication here. According to a QuestionPro poll, concertgoers spent an average of $291.62 on their outfits, $214.80 on merchandise, and $131.48 on food and drinks. Who needs savings, anyway?Now, let's talk resale prices. The average resale price of an "Eras" ticket was a jaw-dropping $1,607. That's a 741% increase from her "Reputation" tour in 2018 when tickets were practically a steal at $191. Taylor Swift might as well be a financial advisor at this point!But what about the impact beyond the dollar signs? Truckers for the tour got $100,000 checks each! Food banks received hefty donations, and retailers are cashing in on the Swift fashion frenzy. The Federal Reserve even mentioned Swift in their Beige Book because her concerts boosted hotel revenue in Philadelphia. She's not just a pop star; she's an economic superhero!So, what's next for Taylor Swift? Well, she's adding international tour dates, announcing album re-recordings, and basically taking over the world one concert at a time. Who knows, she might even break her own record. As they say, never say never when it comes to Taylor Swift. This "Eras" tour is the gift that keeps on giving, and we're all here for the ride!
