So this week we learned that Enron is back...sort of.

The crypto world is getting just a bit out of control. Pump.Fun started out as an obscure memecoin site and has recently snowballed into a completely unchecked casino where anyone can launch a coin for just a few bucks. They recently launched (and have since shut down) a livestream feature which...didn't go very well to say the least. We've got some of the best and worst moments and everything you need to know this week. PLUS, another Forbes 30 under 30 nominee ends up being a complete scammer. ...

We're talking about the Onion buying out Infowars, and Mark Zuckerberg making all us guys look really bad because he loves his wife so hard. It's a fun episode.

The most fascinating story to come out of the internet and artificial intelligence is unfolding faster than we can keep up with it. A semi-autonomous AI agent became obsessed with an old shock meme and created its own religion, which then collided head-on with the crypto world in ways nobody expected. And it spawned a whole new chaotic category of tokenization: AI memecoins. It sounds stupid (and it is), but the implications and rabbit holes that have opened up go far further than you might thin...

In the early 2000s Abercrombie & Fitch was untouchable. Record profits, clothes that everyone wanted, and meticulous branding that was as effective as it was evocative. But times changed, and Abercrombie didn't. Teetering on the brink of bankruptcy in the 2010s, their turnaround story is nothing short of a miracle.
