The Best One Yet
đď¸ âBlack Friday Footballâ â Amazonâs TNF trick play. Ocean Sprayâs cran-opoly. Microsoftâs OpenAI victory.
Ep. 1089
â˘
Amazon is about to host Black Friday NFL football on Prime â This is the Holy Grail of American Capitalism.
The most controversial dish at your Thanksgiving table? Itâs cranberries, specifically canned cranberries â So we have to tell you about Ocean Sprayâs wild (and surprisingly legal) cranberry monopoly.
And the latest twist in the OpenAI drama? The coup has turned into a mutiny â 97% of OpenAI employees have threatened to quit, which reveals the real winner (Microsoft).
