This is Sarah Stewart Holland, and this is Beth Silverz, thank you for joining us for

Pantsuit Politics.

We're so glad you're here for a new episode of Pantsuit Politics where we take a

different approach to the news. Today, that different approach means thinking about

some big trends in technology and also space. So we're going to start out very practical.

It's been a minute since we have hit artificial intelligence and the economic impact of Silicon

Valley, and as you're going to hear, it's been a minute because Sarah is not all that interested

in this. But we're going to take a second and chat about it. I'm just tired of talking about Elon

Musk. That's the long and short of it. Then we are going to be much less practical. We have been

trying for actual months to make an episode about UFOs, and today is the day. And outside of politics,

we're talking astrology. And I think this whole agenda, Sarah, is worth celebrating.

And we stumbled upon a paduka pumpkin of my husband, which I'm very excited about. Look

for that later in the discussion. Okay. Before we jump into the entire universe, actually,

we are working on filling out our speaking schedule for 2024. And just like Amy Poehler and

Mean Girls, oh, we are not regular speakers. We are cool speakers, guys. We don't do canned

presentations. So let us give you some examples. We had a corporation reach out and say we are

having a tough time transitioning back to working in the office. We are having a tough time

motivating our team to meet goals. And so we worked with them on that. We were really, really happy

with that presentation. We've had universities say our students are feeling a lot of pressure

around this election, or a lot of pressure around civic engagement in general, or a lot of

pressure around their student government. Every student government is experiencing pressure

around parking in case you all wanted too long did not read. This is what we've encountered.
