This is Nick. This is Jack. Welcome back. It is Monday, February 23rd. And today's pot is the best one yet. This is a T-Boy. The top three pop business news stories you need to know today. Jack, you know how I'm preparing for our live show this week? Are you on voice rest? Just saw Van Morrison live at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. Hmm. A romantic concert with your wife is how you're preparing to go on stage with me. All right. Palace Fine Arts, good venue for a podcast, a live podcast, Jack. Is that a hint? It's not a spoiler. We're also the youngest ones in the crowd. Jack, three fantastic stories for today's pod. What have we got on the T-boy? For our first story, President Trump's tariffs got hit with the reverse Uno card. Yep. They've been struck down by the Supreme Court. So Jack and I will tell you how to unscramble this trade war scrambled egg. For our second story, ice cream, you scream. What's happening to ice cream? Nestle is selling all of its ice cream because running an ice cream business is really, really annoying.

0:58.9

And our third in Thonnell story is the surprise co-star of the Olympics.

1:02.2

It's a new brand called ACG that every American athlete wore.

1:06.2

But it's secretly owned by Nike, and it could actually save the Nike.

1:10.6

But besties, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories. I mean, what a mix to kick off the week. I love the mix, Jack. The wildest drama of last week wasn't on Love Island, Bravo, or TMZ. No, no, no, no, no. It was between the two biggest names in AI. Sam Altman of OpenAI and Dario Amadeh of Anthropic are in their toxic era.

1:29.1

Besties, these dudes hate each other so much, they won't even shake hands.

1:33.5

It's a true story.

1:34.8

Last week at India's AI Summit, those two men were both there and they avoided each other like the plague.

1:41.1

Like Sam, he's feeling burned by Anthropic Super Bowl ads.

1:44.0

And Dario doesn't want Sam to start spontaneously advertising on it mid-conversation.

1:48.5

Classic Sam.

1:49.3

But then the Prime Minister of India insisted all the attendees stand up for a photo op on stage.

1:54.1

And get this, the Prime Minister insisted that Sam and Dario stand next to each other.

1:58.7

Awkward.

1:59.6

He asked everyone to hold hands in a sign of unity.

2:02.8

More awkward. Everyone did hold hands except these two. They just stood side by side and put their

2:09.5

hands up in the air. It was very conspicuous, not handholding. Very awkward. Basically, these two

2:16.5

have gone from friends to enemies like

2:18.1

Nikki Minaj and Cardi B. Like Regina George and Katie, like Drake versus Kendrick. But since these

2:22.7

two won't shake hands, Jack and I got curious about the origin of the handshake. Where was

2:27.1

the first handshake? Like, when did that become a thing? Well, we dove in T-boy style and discovered

2:31.3

it was King Shaumanizer, the third of ancient Babylon. Thanks, history major. The first dude to shake hands with another man in a sign of like, we're cool with each other was in the 9th century BC. We know because it's on a stone tablet. It's back checked. And the purpose of the handshake, well, the handshake signals I come in peace. Like, we're holding hands. I'm not going to fight you. It's pretty hard to stab you if we're shaking hands. So, besties, you're going to shake someone's hand today, just like the ancient Babylonians. But unlike Sam and Dario. Awkward, Jack. Let's hit our three story. Fifteen years before this song, two boys from the Northeast met in the dorm.
