This is Nick.

This is Jack. It's Thursday, the new Friday, March 26th. 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. Okay, yeah, does you know that Apple video launch that we announced yesterday? What's going on, Jack? Kind of crashed the Apple app yesterday, didn't it? We accidentally crashed the Apple Podcast app, no big deal.

0:22.9

Here's the deal.

0:26.4

Eventually, you'll see us on video in Apple Podcasts. I'm not even going to say way.

0:27.4

Hair and makeup, we're putting you on the whole.

0:29.8

Jack's glam-up literally broke the Apple Podcast app.

0:33.8

I'll have to wear a vest again for a real premiere on video.

0:37.1

You look too good, Jack. You look

0:38.3

too good. But besties, we've got three fantastic stories for the cool, spice and capitalism. Jack,

0:42.5

what do we get on the pod? For our first story, a jury handed meta and YouTube yesterday,

0:47.1

a huge loss in a landmark court case. It sucks a black lung moment. If you think social media

0:52.9

is the new cigarettes, the jury agrees.

0:56.1

For our second story, the Labibu doll is officially dead. At least Wall Street thinks so.

1:00.8

Peak Labubu. Labubu stock dropped 23% because you can be like Mickey or you can be like Beanie.

1:06.1

In our third and final story, in the middle of all the travel chaos going on, United Airlines launched something

1:11.5

pretty awesome yesterday. I mean, it's unprecedented. United is turning three seats into a bed because

1:16.7

coach is officially dying. But yet, he's, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. I mean,

1:21.5

what a mix. No one else is doing the mix. The best mix, Jack. The busiest verb you got to know right now.

1:27.1

From Silicon Valley to Wall Street, what is it, Nick? Jack, that would be dog fooding. Hey, Miriam Webster, can you sprinkle on a definition for us? Well, Encyclopedia Britannica, I would love to. Dog fooding, it's when a company uses its own product to make that product better. And it makes sense. If your product has issues, you better be the one who discovers them first because you use it. And you stand by your product, you better be eating it every day. That's why Kellogg CEO eats corn flakes every day for breakfast. That's why Uber's engineers don't take lifts to work. And that's why Microsoft doesn't slack, they teams. Teams, we don't have to use it. We get to use it. Now, these are all examples of dog fooding. And the term actually goes back to a pet food commercial from 1988. That's right, a dog food company was so proud of their product that every single employee was feeding it to their puppies. They had to feed it to their puppies. And now in the age of AI, every startup is bragging about their dog fooding. Like Anthropic, which vibe-coded Claude Co-work by using Claudecode. Dog fooding has gotten so big that in the car industry, they're reverse dog fooding. I mean, Jack, what happens over a Jeep if you don't show up at work in a Jeep car? You must park in the shame parking lot. That's way over there. Oh yeah, non- Jeep cars can't park with the rest of the jeeps. So is that dog food shaming? Jack would be jog-food shaming. It's reverse dog-fooding, Jack. That's Purina pounding. Besties, there is nothing cringe about dog fooding. Trust us, you want to be doing it. Which is why this is the only podcast we ever, ever listen to. Nothing else. The only thing we listen to, Jack, let's

go to three stories. trust us, you want to be doing it. Which is why this is the only podcast we ever, ever listen to.

2:51.8

Nothing else. The only thing we listen to, Jack, let's in our three stories.
