| 0:00.0 | This is Nick. This is Jack. Welcome back. It is Monday, January 12th, and today's pod is the best one yet. This is a T-Boy. The top three pop business news stories you need to know today. Welcome back to the coolest place in capitalism update. Last week, our live show in Austin was sold out. This week, our live show in Los Angeles is sold out. Did D.C. and New York City, Jack, buy your tickets fast because they're running out too, and we want to see you live. We got a link in the episode description to buy those tickets. So snag your tickets. In the meantime, Jack, three fantastic stories for today's tea boy. What do we got on the show? For our first story, it's Nike. Because Nike just launched a shoe that connects to your brain. |
| 0:42.6 | Literally. |
| 0:43.2 | Literally. But it's already sold out because this is a Paul Revere product. |
| 0:47.6 | For our second story, Mark Zuckerberg just announced two nuclear power deals that caused the stocks of those nuclear companies to jump by 18%. |
| 0:56.2 | Because meta's built in one data center that needs the electricity of five Vermont's. |
| 1:02.0 | And our third and final story. Happy birthday to New York City's congestion pricing scheme. |
| 1:07.8 | You're looking great over there. It launched one year ago. Was it fantastic or |
| 1:12.2 | has it been a disaster? Jack and I just got the data so we will dive in T-Boy style. But yet he's |
| 1:17.5 | before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. I mean, now that's how you start a week. No one else |
| 1:21.5 | is starting the week like that, Jack. I will start exercising every day and do it every day this year |
| 1:25.5 | except leg day. Jack, I will stop consuming |
| 1:27.7 | alcohol except for mouth watch with, I think, includes alcohol. I will start a journaling |
| 1:32.4 | routine and a meditation routine and run a marathon and a half marathon and go gluten-free |
| 1:38.2 | and test out not having dairy. Combine, besties, if you're feeling a New Year's peer pressure, |
| 1:44.1 | we have a resolution idea that won't fail you. |
| 1:46.5 | Because our New Year's resolution only lasts this month. It's called Plannuary. |
| 1:51.6 | Plannuary. Basically, you plan all your trips and travel for the whole year in just the month of January. |
| 1:56.9 | All right. I just finished Planoir. In April, I'm flying with a family to Florida. In June, I'm finally doing my honeymoon in Italy. There we go. In Italy, we're doing a family vacation in Block Island. And in November, I'm going back to New York City for a weekend. Well, Jack, we are planning a trip to Italy two in August. But I think if we go at the same time, it's a write-off, right? Yeah. Yes. So you should come in June, I guess. Besties, all of this travel booking, it was a doozy on the January credit card statements, wasn't it, Jack? No joke. I actually hit my limit on my credit card, something I've never done before, because I bought four trips in one month. Jack, I thought we learned a calculus the limit does not exist. Yes, it very much does, make you. It's loaned finance class. Besties, it feels fantastic to have the full year planned thanks to plan you work. And we got good rates for airfare because we booked so early. Because you can't build without a plan. Never forget our favorite quote from Yogi Berra. If you don't know where you're going, you'll end up someplace else. Perfectly said, Jack. Although now that I have kids, I end up someplace else even if I know where I'm going. And yet is if Planoir is not your back, try our other resolution. Pie January. Pie January. It's like dry January, but instead of no alcohol, it's only pie. If you know, you know, happy plenary to all those who celebrate Jack. What's in every story? Fifteen years before this song, two boys from the Northeast met in the dorm. They had an idea to cause a cultural storm. It's the best one yet, but the best is a norm. Jack Nick, that's it. I don't even think they need to practice. |
| 3:26.2 | 50% that's a fat tip. |
| 3:28.4 | Tea Boy City on your at list. |
| 3:30.5 | If you know, you know, because we're ready to go. |
| 3:32.8 | We can't wait no more, so just start the show. |
