Episode description

This week on Curve Weekly: political chaos, market meltdowns, and a Swiftie-sized power move. 


Vic and Soph unpack the billionaire breakup of Elon and Trump (EV shade, Twitter tantrums, and all), dive into what’s next for Tesla, and chat about why space is suddenly the place to invest.


They also get into the IPO buzz (hi, Virgin Australia and Wise), plus Taylor Swift’s epic move to buy back her music — and what it taught them about contracts, control, and calling the shots.


Finance meets pop culture, with zero snore-factor. Let’s go.
