Thank you. Circumvention. That's the nothing personal word of the day. Today is Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025.

And if you have not yet listened or watched, the new Pablo Tori finds out, then go ahead and do that once you're done with this show.

But we're going to give you a little spoiler alert because Amin al-Hasson, myself and Pablo,

mostly Pablo, partially Amin and David.

Have a show for you, Pablo's first show as part of the Athletic and New York Times partnership

Have a blockbuster investigation,

one of those deep dives that is making Pablo in that show so famous.

The Los Angeles Clippers and Steve Balmer

have circumvented the salary cap

I don't want to spoil the whole thing for you, but I totally understand if you don't have

the 80 minutes to give Pablo, but you should give me the 100 minutes and then figure out

This is one of those companies that says they're going to change the world one tree at a time

and what they're really doing is taking your money.
