The one about mobster names, Elon Musk and Twitter, SBF, FTX, Elizabeth Holmes, Zuckerberg and Meta, and Jeff Bezos

Are We Recording?

This is the billionaire take-down episode. Elon Musk is always in the news, as is his intention. It's hard not to talk about him and his purchase of Twitter. New things come out everyday, and Mark and Kevin talk about those things once again. There's also Sam Bankman-Fried, Elizabeth Holmes, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos, who thinks philanthropy is hard.

Elon Musk is like a mobster, and Mark and Kevin discuss possible mobster names for themselves before discussing the current Musk/Twitter absurdities:

• Hundreds of employees say no to being part of Elon Musk’s ‘extremely hardcore’ Twitter
• Twitter locks staff out of offices until next week
• Twitter Now Asks Some Fired Workers to Please Come Back
• You Can’t Code Your Way Out of the Culture Problem
• Twitter Is Being Sued By Its Own Employees For Mass Layoffs
• General Motors, Pfizer, United Airlines: Here Are All the Big Advertisers That Have Left Twitter Since Elon Took Over
• Tesla's New Tequila Glasses Are Designed to Ruin Your Tequila Drinking Experience
• "Gentlemen, [he] may talk like an idiot and look like an idiot. But don’t let that fool you. He really is an idiot."

A discussion of Ye's antisemitic Twitter rant, leads to an idea for a Death Metal music converter app, that converts anything into Death Metal, which leads to an idea to make Whitefish Ski Resort into Deathfish Ski Resort in an effort to discourage skiers from coming and crowding our slopes.

Sam Bankman-Fried, FTX, Alameda Research, and Caroline Ellison are all in the news non-stop, for fraud, and their Real World style, Bahama lifestyle.

Elizabeth Holmes gets more than 11 years for her fraud with Theranos. Mark Zuckerberg is losing a ton on his ridiculous Metaverse, and Jeff Bezos thinks philanthropy is hard. Mark and Kevin would just like him to pay more taxes, pay his employees more, and treat them better.
