Good morning, Brew Daily Show, I'm Neil Framon, and I'm Toby Howell.

0:03.2

On today's pod, we will talk about the brutal heat wave in Europe and what it means for tourism

0:07.7

in the long term over there, and is the fast fashion giant Sheen actually just the mafia?

0:13.2

Then Metta dropped the second generation of its AI-large language model and decided to give

0:19.2

it away for free, plus we'll tell you all about the rise of the new Workday Dead Zone

0:25.0

that employees love, but bosses hate. It's Wednesday, July 19th. Let's ride.

0:35.1

All right, Neil, so obviously we talked about the power ball lottery yesterday,

0:39.3

and it's well over a billion dollars now because no one won yesterday, but I was seeing some tweets

0:45.6

on what people might do if they did win the jackpot, a classic genre of Twitter. And what the

1:12.6

You're a sign for the guy. All right, Neil, what would you do if you won the lottery?

1:16.8

I haven't thought about it a lot, but something I would do if I was super rich would be to

1:21.5

just wear a new pair of socks every day. I know that's terrible for the environment, but I wouldn't

1:27.6

let them go to waste, and I would just wake up in the morning feeling so incredible for putting

1:33.8

a new pair of socks on. There's no better feeling. That is a truly wild thing to do with a billion

1:39.5

dollars, but I think I'm coming around to the logic behind it. It would cost maybe like 50k over

1:46.0

my life probably. Yeah, you could probably do it right now. I will help everyone else do it,

1:50.9

and destroy the environment at the same time. Yeah, oh lord. What about you? I don't know,

1:55.5

I'd probably build a golf course or something, or maybe enter a really high stakes poker tournament.
