🚨 Down Round Official Breaking News Announcement Alert PSA

You may know Jack Dorsey as co-founder of Twitter or the guy who runs the company that makes those little card reader doo-dads at your local coffee shop, or perhaps that one random mention in a Kendrick Lamar song.

Right now, he's in the news for laying off a whole hunk of people from Block, the company that owns Square, Afterpay, and Tidal — and he has cited AI as the catalyst. The boys discuss whether this is the beginning of a trend or just a useful excuse.

We also check in on James' dad, and wagers are made.
