Episode description

Lyft dropped the wildest CEO letter ever… and it includes “Enshitiffication” and “Falcon Mode.”

The most popular, viral product right now? Labubu dolls… Their growth hack? Blind boxes.

The big business beef was President Trump calling Jeff Bezos… because of a Tariff Fee.

Plus, the world’s biggest pasta brand just solved pasta cooking… with the first “Pasta Playlist.”
