Welcome back to the corporate gossip podcast, Patreon.

I'm your host, CBS Scorn and Becca Platsky, and don't get too used to what you've already heard because you're going to hear something different right now.

Whoa.

Whoa. What must that have felt like for you guys?

Hello, everybody. I'm out of office reply guy, Robbie Slovak. It is great to be here with you, Becca, and great to be here as part of the podcast.

Yes, I'm so excited. And you Patreoners are hearing Robbie first. So I guess we'll do like thumbs up, thumbs down.

Okay. If you like me, I mean, yeah, yeah. If you like me, let people know. And if you don't like me,

shut up, you know, don't tell anyone. It's pretty easy. Yeah, easy deal. Um, Robbie, I have to let you know that, so Robbie came up with the idea for this Patreon and it's, I think, going to be one of our best Patrions yet. I have to say. I'm so excited to talk about this. Oh my God. I think that Donald Trump has really turned this presidency into a money slurpy, money

smoothie.

Billionaire CEOs are just lining up to Venmo him billions of dollars.

And the ideal format for like the ingredients for this money smoothie right now are kind of a bullshit

lawsuit so the ellisins for example paid 16 million dollars on behalf of cbs bob iger paid

15 million dollars on behalf of disney and that's like the ideal format right yeah pretend lawsuits

they'll find a way to funnel some money a settlement and it's like the presidency kind of, like, I think there's an acceptable level of corruption that every American is just kind of like, okay, you're going to make some money in office here and there. But this is like the Trump like taste in general of just like over the top gold. Like this is just over the top corruption that you can't even pretend it's just like part of the system,

you know? Well, and and I think that's what's so interesting about it and what I'm kind of

loving is at a minimum we can say, well, this stuff is clearly legal. Yes. And nobody, none of you

bothered to make any rules against it. It's like you can't do corruption, but there's

no second part of that law, which says, and if you do. And if you do, here's what happens. Yeah,

same thing for you can't start a war without Congress. But if you do, I don't know. We haven't really

thought about that. Let's talk specifically about how Donald Trump has suck some money out of the Bezos-Sanchez clan.

Yes.

Back at the end of 2024, Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos show up at Mar-a-Lago.
