Us too. The radically moderate crew jumps back into the fray, dissecting the fallout, Shopify's bold (and maybe job-killing) AI mandate, and the wild reality of de-extinction – seriously, dire wolves are back?! We also get real about the profound life shift of new fatherhood, debate killer (or maybe crazy?) golf simulator business ideas, and question if robot waiters are the future. It's your weekly dose of navigating finance, tech disruption, and life's big pivots, served chill.*Timestamps:*🎙️ 00:00 - Banter, Mic Checks, and Welcoming Papa Eric Back ("Severed Man"?)🍻 02:30 - What's Everyone Drinking?
