Would you ever melt down an Olympic gold medal… and if you did, what’s it actually worth? The crew kicks things off with a surprisingly fun (and slightly unhinged) debate, then gets practical with Uber for Teens — how it works, what parents can see, and what teens can do in the app — with Foosh breaking it down from the driver’s seat. Plus, the reality check: only about a quarter of 16-year-olds are licensed now, which leads to a full-on nostalgia spiral about sprinting to the DMV the second you turned 16.  

Then it’s weather whiplash: rain hit overnight with more on the way, ground temps holding steady, and a look at how Seal Beach is battling the ocean to protect homes. From there, we ride the wave into a high surf advisory for OC and San Diego — including how insane The Wedge can get — while mountain communities sit in desperate need of snow. 

And just when you think you can relax, TikTok drops a new twist: “Local Feed” — a new tab aimed at surfacing posts, businesses, and happenings near you. And for blackjack players in California, there’s a big change coming: the state just approved new DOJ cardroom regulations affecting blackjack-style games (and player-dealer rotation). The rules take effect April 1, 2026, and could mean your favorite “blackjack” tables at cardrooms may have to be eliminated or heavily modified.
