This episode opens with K. Michelle on Club Shay Shay before diving into major headlines around layoffs, AI, and financial controversy. We discuss reported restructuring at Meta, legal and money disputes involving Terrell Owens and Floyd Mayweather Jr., plus Nolan Smith Jr. allegedly being arrested for excessive speeding in Georgia. We also unpack the viral conversation about whether the American middle class and one-income lifestyle of the 1990s still exists today, along with flooding issues impacting New York City and Waymo operations in Atlanta.
You don't want to do right?
SPEAKER_00I would if if that was offered to me, sometimes I do like it.
SPEAKER_03I don't need to pull meditating. I need a point of the tab.
SPEAKER_00Maybe it's weird, but I I kind of like it. Like it's what I mean. It's not like maybe I don't think so for you.
SPEAKER_02No, you don't forget.
SPEAKER_00No, it's not. It always doesn't mean this is never, it's never about the things that people would think. Everything which you was about control. Everything that you do.
SPEAKER_02So you go you're the producer. So you like the director, you direct the name, or you just No, I just like to watch.
SPEAKER_00I kind of come up and then come, you, you, you, you never like to do it. It's cute, but I'm Woo!
SPEAKER_01Happy Saturday. Welcome to the Rufus and Craig's charm, your wonderful host, Craig. And that is Rufus.
SPEAKER_04Good morning.
SPEAKER_01We're excited to celebrate our 20th episode with you all today. And thank you for bank day, bank day. Shout out to those of you, of course, in the continental United States, and as well as our friends in South Africa. We really appreciate you all for tuning in and celebrating us. And what you just heard, um a lighter, is it virality? Is that a word?
SPEAKER_04Yeah, that's a word.
SPEAKER_01Okay.
SPEAKER_04Somebody made it up, so it's a few lines.
SPEAKER_01Viral moment from Kimberly Michelle Pate, uh, also known as Pudding in her country uh lane. Yeah, pudding, and also known as Kay Michelle in the RB lane and in uh reality TV lane. And so she did this sit down with Club Shay Shay. And this was one of the moments, and I'm like, oh man, that that interview was about what two hours and 30 minutes long.
SPEAKER_04Did you watch it?
SPEAKER_01No, I have not. I thought I was gonna be able to catch it on the plane, but I couldn't. But nonetheless, uh man, I I mean, if you go to the Club Shay Shay Instagram handle, they posted about 20 daggone clips. They are gonna eat off that K Michelle interview because she's hot, right? She's what's hot right now because of, yeah, she's hot because what's going on with her on those Housewives, on the Housewives of Atlanta show. And uh a lot of people are just wanting to get K Michelle off the show. So I thought it'd be fun for us to bring her up this week. Um, you know, is it you know the internet just is the the best, it just gives and gives and gives and gives. So, you know, Rufus, have you watched you your partner, you know, do something with somebody else when you had a partner?
SPEAKER_04No.
SPEAKER_01I've never watched that. Um, I've I've partaken in, you know, supporting OnlyFan platforms. Sometimes you see stuff on Twitter, sometimes you see stuff on Instagram, and hell at this point you see stuff on Facebook. And depending on what part of the country is on X. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what that's called. Did I say?
SPEAKER_04Oh, you said Twitter though, my bad.
SPEAKER_01Oh well, we know Twitter, we don't know X, but that's true, that's true.
SPEAKER_04I've even seen shit on TikTok from time to time.
SPEAKER_01Oh, wow. So this stuff is everywhere you all. So what she's saying, but uh, but but that's primary, I guess, to her beer. But I'm thinking, was that just kind of lowbrow at this point, or was that the wrong road? Because given coming off of the heels of a Diddy conviction, is it appropriate for Kay Michelle to say, oh yeah, I like to watch my man, well, now her husband rather?
SPEAKER_04I would say what does a Diddy conviction have to do with her and her husband?
SPEAKER_01Because she's in the entertainment industry, she too is a musician, um, I guess you could say a producer, so similar, and you're seeing um exercising a level of control over these persons that come in, and while they agree and give consent, and you know, that was a part of his thing, sitting back and watching Cassie have um Suexual um activities. We're posting this to YouTube later, so um anyway, when we do get monetized on our YouTube channel, we wanted to be there, but uh Rufus sees that differently, but we're gonna move on past that. But yeah.
SPEAKER_04So she's a reverse cook and he's an actual cook. Got it.
SPEAKER_01See you all. I didn't know nothing about that.
SPEAKER_04Cuckold is um typically in uh when a man likes to watch his wife get fucked by another man. So I'm assuming she would be like the reverse of a cuckold. I don't know what they call it though.
SPEAKER_01I don't know. That's kind of deep for me. Um I've only heard T.S. Madison make reference to that on her show. So that's as far as it goes for me hearing that one.
SPEAKER_04We love Maddie.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, yeah. We do. We do love her over here. So getting right into the show, you all. Go start with our economy seven minutes. So, what you'll see today, man, it's a lot of this stuff kind of overlays into other parts of the show. You know, we definitely gonna hit sports, we definitely gonna hit the economy, and we always touch on our wow moments, you know, what was big, what was standing out this this particular week. And one thing, you know, it's unfortunate. We talked about this in prior episodes, right? Um, is meta. I think this past week, I guess is when they actually sent the letters out to those 8,000 employees to pretty much say, hey, you know, we're restructuring and you don't have a job. And so when I looked at that, no, no, no. The average salary um of a meta employee is $371,000 up to $381,000. So you can just imagine if that's one income, or it could be two, you never know if it's a spouse or a coupling in some kind of way, um, both working for the meta platform, but they're going through a restructuring, um, are doing a structural pivot. And so unfortunately, you know, one thing you've heard Rufus say is I hate AI, I hate AI. That's all he's gonna say. And so Meta is reassigning, you know, 7,000 employees into a newly formed AI-focused pods, and um basically trying to eliminate humans. So to think about this man, oh God, what is his name? What's the Jeff Bezos is Zuckerberg? Zuckerberg. That one. So Mark Zuckerberg, um, we you know you've seen him shoulder to shoulder with uh Jeff Bezos, and I want to say and the Donald Trump. Correct, and I think the guy of Apple. So they're always like the face of America when it comes to economics, or uh they always support him, they are definitely literally aligned with him, but nonetheless, his ass is feeling it too. And so um, as they throw these damn, is it data centers up? I know in Georgia, don't they have some in Texas? Yeah, man.
SPEAKER_04Um I don't I don't know where they are, but I know they're always near poor communities. Yeah, yeah, they're in they drink all the water.
SPEAKER_01Yep, they're in Georgia, and one thing the lady showed up, I think it could have let's say Georgia politician, she held up this glass, this mason jar, man, and it had like brown, nasty water, and she was like, you know, this is what our citizens are dealing with with this data seem been here, not center, excuse me, being here. And I know in Texas, I remember looking at a story, a news story rather, where um it was a couple, they were and they were white, you know, so I guess just poor communities too. Um anyway, um, yeah, she was like, we don't have any water pressure. So while I definitely leverage AI, um it is not good for the environment. And you know, we hear that all the time. Um, definitely, you know, I work in higher ed, so when we talk about, oh, let's automate, let's automate. We need to automate and leverage AI while it is there, but the water's disappearing.
SPEAKER_04So I think that stuff needs to be regulated in some kind of way because it's ridiculous. Like we need water to live, so it's got to be some type of regulation that they need to put. But I just want to say that $300,000 is an average salary is incredible.
SPEAKER_01That's the average salary, man. Those people are getting paid, so I could just imagine, you know, it's not too many other places you can go where you can get that much money from a single source.
SPEAKER_04Correct.
SPEAKER_01A single source, not the lady that we cover. Remember, she had the three jobs and she was her salary's about $320 something, across the yep. Yeah, I think it was three jobs. She had three jobs, and that was her salary. It was about $320,000 so you know, these people are getting this salary from one source, and man, uh, good luck to those folks. Um, and just moving on from that. Another story that we could talk about today that I wanted to definitely hit. We've all taken, most of us are taking Ry shares, and a Florida lift driver was permanently banned from the platform after he attempted to collect a fake $75 damage fee using an AI, sticking with the theme of AI, generated photo um of pretty much where this young lady, it was her and a friend, got in the back of the car. They took the drive home, he dropped off, but and I guess it was built to the father's account because it was the dad that came forward, but that's who I saw on ABC News in affiliates. He was saying it was just unfair, and the daughter was sitting next to him, but man, yeah, tried to charge this girl. Everybody got a that's a cun. And one thing since we talked about Dr. Bryant was you know, everybody's a grifter now.
SPEAKER_04Oh, for sure. And a lot of them get away with it. If you're good enough, you might not ever get caught. And I think AI is probably enabling a lot of people to get away with fake shit. Shh, you know, altering documents and pictures, you never know. You might have a picture of somebody and it may it may have never been there.
SPEAKER_01That's right. Yep, definitely. If they're if they're good with it, you're you're right about that. You're definitely.
SPEAKER_04And everybody's making these little um pictures on social media where they're they're you know, they put their face in there and they just make it whatever they want, whatever they want to make it. I think I think it's just harmful for real, for real.
SPEAKER_01It is, and it's it's scary. You know, it's taking catfish to a whole new level.
SPEAKER_04Right.
SPEAKER_01Yep, yep, taking it to a whole new level. And one of our beginning of our crossover stories, you know, we love, or I do, uh, to talk about the intersection, our intersectionality of the drama and our athletes in the sports and entertainment industry. And so moving right along, this story I personally am familiar with. If you think back to prior episodes, um, I may have discussed this, but did not disclose the company that I work for. But NFL Hall of Favor, Terrell Owens has publicly accused his longtime manager, Heather Massalam, of stealing money from him. He cut all ties with her after discovering unauthorized pay increases and financial discrepancies. And so what this was was Terrell going on Instagram and posting a lot of screenshots of text messages, like the notepad of all of his bills. And one that was on there was the company that I worked for, man. And he was so basically an entertainment um television company or whatnot, and he was still paying a little bit over $500 for that bill. Um, and I think he circled where it said me, and he was it was a $1,500 payment. So I guess I don't know what her salary was because her rebuttal was in January they agreed to a pay increase for her, but nonetheless, he said that she's I guess Shawnee O'Neal and then Cypher sent off of money. Um, but that was when Shawnee was Shawnee O'Neill, now she's Shawnee Henderson, but not to be distracted, but I paid, okay, I didn't pay, but I processed the payment for Terrell Owens, and this would have been like um it was a lady called, oh man. I remember you telling me this. Yeah, this was uh it could have been, it had to have been let's say somewhere between 2009 and 2011, because I went at the company that long. And so um, nonetheless, she caught and was like, you know, I hey I need to pay these bills, and so I had to process a payment on four different accounts. There was an account like in Texas, uh Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Um I feel like so it was like Dallas, Texas, Tuscaloosa. It was somewhere in LA, and I feel like it was somewhere in Georgia as well. And so I was like, wow, this is a lot of accounts. And so she was like, you know, so we just paying the bills. But that was a black lady, not Heather. Um, yeah, because it's almost oh, it could be almost 20 years ago. But nonetheless, um, yeah, I was like, wow, I my takeaway from that, you know, was wow, this is a lot. You know, she was like, Would you like to talk to him?
SPEAKER_04And I was like, No, girl, send me a cash app.
SPEAKER_01I don't think cash app was a thing in 09.
SPEAKER_04I know it probably wasn't a thing.
SPEAKER_01You know, but I was like, no, I'm at work, girl. I don't care. Let's just take his money, let's keep him paying this bill.
SPEAKER_04We're trying to get this job done and get up to the city. Yeah, and get up right six hours.
SPEAKER_01Correct, because then I get in trouble for long call time, right?
SPEAKER_04Right, because you know they be tracking this shit. They track when the cat when the damn call picks up and when it's done.
SPEAKER_01Yes, yes, but she, Terrell was paying a lot of people's bills. It was a lot of, and I don't know if they were necessarily his homes, and I know later in life, I think he had that TV show uh where it was with those black women.
SPEAKER_04They did show the head.
SPEAKER_01No, it was something about it was just like it could have been that. Yeah, maybe it was. And those women I think were on that show. So, you know, one thing we always talk about, these athletes, they definitely pay a lot of people's bills. I witnessed it firsthand with T.O. And um and we've seen his kind of ups and downs with finances, so it looks like he's more aware of that now. And so I guess that's the plus side, plus side of this. Now, somebody who has and has not been aware that we've talked about in previous shows, because it's almost like the flashback show. Um is Floyd Mayweather, don't they call him Money? Money Mayweather, okay. Isn't it a gang? Is it a what they call the people that be around?
SPEAKER_04I don't I don't know anything about that.
SPEAKER_01Because he has a harem of women and there be some men.
SPEAKER_04But I don't know nothing about that.
SPEAKER_01She sure the fuck did T.I. got his shit together.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, TI said, come bring your ass back home. Allegedly. I wasn't there.
SPEAKER_01She sure did go over there. She was over there, courtside.
SPEAKER_04Allegedly.
SPEAKER_01Ray J's, uh, do we call Princess Love his wife or ex-wife? She was over there.
SPEAKER_04I don't know. Were they married? Like officially married?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're married. Um, that's why they yeah, this whole custody and divorce theme remakes. Oh, we're fouling divorce. So yeah, I think they're still married. They're still not legally divorced while they, I believe they're living separate. Um, but yeah, a lot of people know Jason Lee has been over there with Floyd Mayweather.
SPEAKER_04What he was doing over there. I don't know.
SPEAKER_01Maybe giving them good press. I'm not sure. But Floyd Mayweather has had a lot going on, and more recently, he has filed a $175 million fraud lawsuit in New York against his former investment manager and real estate advisor alongside um an associate attorney. And what he's alleging is that they built his trust over several years um before orchestrating a complex scheme that included misappropriating funds, taking unauthorized loans from his properties, and illicitly pawning his luxury jewelry and personal Gulf Stream jet.
SPEAKER_04You can't pawn no damn jet.
SPEAKER_01Well, I guess you somebody say, okay, if you don't give me, I'll give you, let's say it's valued at $15 million. Let's go for $20 million. I'll give you $3 million because you're short for cash, you know, and give me the title to your jet. So technically, yes. I'm thinking something is happening over there, and they have accused Mayweather of being a functional illiterate. And so we're reading it. Yeah, man, he don't know what the hell is going on with these contracts.
SPEAKER_04And so this is where he is that can help him.
SPEAKER_01That that can be trustworthy, right? And so it we've been hearing, and we don't speak her name over here, a certain vlogger that Cardi B is sued, but nonetheless, um, she has talked about him being broken, being stuck. I remember one time she talked about him being stuck over in Dubai because he owes somebody money. Something, I don't know if he has a gambling, something was happening, man. But he couldn't get out of Dubai, he had to get some money for that. But this it keeps showing up more and more, you know, properties being behind on taxes, and and one thing it makes me think about with these athletes is feeding the beast, and also entertainers because yeah, feeding the beast, and why and it it I I know people probably be like, Well, how the hell are you tied it in? We think about R. Kelly, you know, there was a whole group of folks involved in it. You keep feeding, and if if if money's thing, if Floyd made the Floyd.
SPEAKER_04They were complicit because they were getting paid. Correct.
SPEAKER_01That part, and if his thing is money, and if Robert Kelly's thing was women, we're gonna keep bringing you women to do this thing too, um, and we're gonna bring you money. You, you know, it's just that thing, right? It's either set, like you said, right, right. A man's downfall is gonna be money or sex. And so, man, I I really think that's what this is for the most part. Um, more than anything. Um, yeah, and one thing we discussed the last time, I definitely want to hit him before we round his ass off, in a way, is um, you know, he's actually in California. He has filed a $340 million lawsuit against Showtime and um a former executive. And in that suit, he's alleging that his career earnings um for some of the biggest, you know, foul fights that he's had or whatever, uh, were systematically diverted or misappropriated through a handshake deal involving his longtime advisor. So, man, it's just a lot of shakiness around the uh did you call it the state, the the money Mayweather estate.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. I hope he gets the right team around him because I mean he, I guess this previous team has not been a good team. Uh they didn't obey their fiduciary duties. Now I hope he, because I don't know if it's true that he can't read or he's a little bit or whatever, but I hope somebody is in his corner helping him get the shit that he's owed. Because this is crazy. How much you ever know what his net worth was at one point? It was high.
SPEAKER_01I feel like somewhere I've seen somewhere about 400 or 500 million, and I think they were saying he was going towards because you know, billionaire status, because in one event he could get, you know, two, three, four hundred million dollars. Um you know, you're getting hundreds of million dollars from one event. Um just like kind of like base pay your you know, your initial contract, not to consider like endorsements and things of that nature that come with it as well. But um, yeah, you're you're definitely right. And and just our last to round it off on his ass. This these, I mean, this has been a a fluid Mayweather week, if I may say. So he's been ordered to pay nearly $1 million in back child support after impregnating a dancer stripper. Um, you know, and over so the child support agreement was $32,000 per month, and he's had ongoing payments, you know, and this was out of Nevada. So, you know, and this is for a four-year-old, now four-year-old little girl and his fifth child. And so, you know, you see the theme of man, uh, things ain't the sun ain't too bright, you know, over there. So um, you know, if you people are taking advantage of, you know, somebody who is uh allegedly a functional, illiterate man, you know, it's it's their time, it's their time.
SPEAKER_04And so I think I heard a while back about some basketball player who paid his uh his child's mother the total amount of the child support at one time. I think if I were in that situation, I would do that. Just get it over. And then if it ain't if it ain't enough, girl, you got it. I mean, you got the $18 million. If it's a million dollars a year or whatever it is, you got it all right there, so you decide what you want to do with it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. And I think there was that might have been, was it Alan Edwards?
SPEAKER_04I can't tell you.
SPEAKER_01Look it up right quick while I cover this little piece. Yeah, look it up. I think it was Edwards. I think which band it was like $3 million, right? I remember that story. Alan Edwards? It could be Alan Edwards. I think he just paid it off, or it might be the other guy. I don't know.
SPEAKER_04I think he was a young guy, and this is like maybe last year or the year.
SPEAKER_01Uh-huh. Just paid it off, said, I'm not dealing with this. You know, we just need these guys to slow down. And somebody that didn't slow down was the Philadelphia Eagles linebacker, Nolan Smith Jr. He was arrested in Twiggs County, Georgia. Now you know that's the last place you want to be pulled over for anything. They always say do not get in a case.
SPEAKER_04Say the county name again.
SPEAKER_01Twigs County, Georgia.
SPEAKER_04And this was sound like the fucking boondog.
SPEAKER_01That's right. Remember, Atlanta is black. The rest of Georgia ain't black.
SPEAKER_04Correct. Maybe Macon, but the rest of it, it ain't black. I've been to Macon. Making kind of black, but I don't know about the rest of the Yeah, man.
SPEAKER_01And so this was on May 15th, and he was allegedly driving 135 miles per hour in a 70 mile zone. That's right, in a 70 mile per hour zone. So I don't even know if that qualifies as a super speeder ticket because you've almost doubled the speed limit. At that point, you know, they did write to take his ass to jail. So he's got he's got charges of speeding and excessive and reckless driving. You know, and you know one thing I always do, roof is to tell you, I'm gonna go look at the contract.
SPEAKER_04Oh, yeah. He loves to look at the contracts and the homes.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah. So Nolan Smith, he signed a four-year $11.9 million contract with the Philadelphia Eagles, and this began in 2023. Um, including he had a signing bonus of $5.7 million, and he's guaranteed to make that $11.9 million, and his average annual salary is about $2.9 million. And so um in 2026, they're saying that he'll make $2.3 million, and his cap hit is gonna be $3.3 million. So that's just a it's a lot of money, um, even though we know that stuff is taxed, but depending on if you know how you got your your payment and stuff set up, you can probably, you know, beat. Because one thing we know, you know, Philadelphia Eagles, in a way, uh Saquon in particular, are not afraid to align themselves with a Donald Trump, and I hope that golf date was worth it that he had with him. Were you able to find the guy?
SPEAKER_04I have the answers. Um, this is her Jason Pearson Media. Okay. Uh on Facebook. But it says NBA star Anthony Edwards reportedly made a historic move by paying one million eighty thousand dollars in child support all at once, covering 18 years worth of payment.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you just want to be done. So I'm I'm I'm with you, Rupert. So that's that's that's that's the end of our sports segment, man. I enjoy it. I love how it connects uh with regular life shit. Now moving on. Moving on, you know, in our little wild segment. One story that I came about that it was actually Sears. So this guy went on his social media platform, I believe it was Facebook.
SPEAKER_04Sears and Sears, the store that's no longer in middle.
SPEAKER_01Yes, the Sears and Robot Company. Sears. Yeah, man. Okay. And so he was pretty much reflecting on what it meant to have a full-time job in America, you know, the days old. And he was specifically talking about the 1990s. And he was saying those Sears employees during that time were able to buy homes, you could raise a family, you could retire with the pension and actually enjoy life off of that single income. And so whether or not, you know, that was particularly true, you know, it speaks to our economy today. And many Americans, of course, are saying, you know, hey, one full-time job no longer guarantees stability, you know, especially as housing and healthcare and everyday living costs continue to rise, you know, and our wages ain't going up. You know, I would say, you know, this gas tank going up. You know, we I talk about the damn pack of noodles, bro. How are noodles 75 cents?
SPEAKER_04Right. And AI is taking all of the jobs.
SPEAKER_01Yep, yep, yep. And I think back like even with this, I was like, you know what? I remember, you know, childhood friends' parents working in Sears. You know, them people was living in Eden. I think I know one in particular, her um, I forgot who it was. Like let's say the wife worked in Sears and the dad owned like a plum and be. So, you know, them folks was making it, bro. There was like grown people, you could pay bills off of a Sears check.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Think about this too. Back in the day, years ago, like, you know, when I was young, when you were young, people they didn't, you know, like nowadays, people change jobs every two to three years or three to four years or whatever. Yeah. Back then, or maybe before then, but people stayed at the same job for an entire like 30 years and they would just retire from one job and get a pension. Pensions are completely almost obliterated. The only way that people have retirement funds now is from their 401k or from like a uh another type of fund. But pensions like regular pensions, like the one that some people have that work civil service jobs still, are mostly gone. Which is unfortunate. But um, companies are greedy and they don't really care about the people that work for them. They all they really care about is the money. Yep, yep. They're getting theirs.
SPEAKER_01They are definitely getting theirs, they're getting theirs, they're getting theirs. Thank you for that, man. And we'll just round it off. We just got two more stories that we want to cover, man. And just briefly, you know, New York. I know we talked about the state Louisiana. Yeah, yeah, it sure is yours. Uh Louisiana sinking, but I've heard something similar about New York, man. The floods. The floods. You know.
SPEAKER_04It's been raining a lot of the way. I didn't know.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah. And it's like the flash floods, man. So you see in these videos of people trying to get off the bus getting washed away down the street.
SPEAKER_04I did see a video like that uh yesterday.
SPEAKER_01Getting washed away, man. I I saw my heart went out to the guy trying to deliver somebody food in that rain. I'm like, okay, even the service providers of that app, let's say if they work for like DoorDash or Uber, uh, pause that stuff. It's like, there's no way that this person can get from here to this block in this bicycle. Like, that shit ain't safe. You're gonna die trying to deliver somebody cheese steak.
SPEAKER_04Right, right.
SPEAKER_01You know, it's it's just weird and similar to that. You know, it ties into our past stories about Waymo. You know, down in Atlanta, they had some flash floods going on, and people had to rescue each other um down there in Atlanta, man. And so Waymo did suspend service due to the flooding in Atlanta because the cars, I guess they just they ain't no Teslas, they just kept driving and driving right into the flood and water.
SPEAKER_04So I believe they suspended it here in Dallas, too. I don't know. We haven't had any floods that I'm aware of, but I believe they let me see if I can find it up.
SPEAKER_01Now we talked about that too in prior episodes where in Dallas they were trying to go up the wrong way of the interstate and just being crazy.
SPEAKER_04The one I saw was running the light. It says Waymo temporarily suspended its robotaxi services across all Texas markets, including Dallas, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. The pause was enacted as a proactive measure due to severe weather and flash flooding concerns. Okay. So yeah, I guess it's a good thing. So similar thing.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, but they need to be getting that directly. You talked about them pacing and doing it. Them motherfucking things ain't got it going on. They ain't got it going on. You trying to run red lights. You said you just said it ran a red light. I saw trying to go the wrong way at the interstate. They just do, they just go into traffic. Like, what the fuck?
SPEAKER_04And guess what? It all ties back into my original statement that AI is going to kill us.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Yeah. In these instances, literally. So great 20th episode. Uh, we appreciate you all for tuning in. I'm gonna sign off from here. We appreciate you. We will see you all next week. Thank you all. Bye. Good day.
