It was a very Decoder conversation. Read the full transcript here.

Welcome to episode 190 of What Are We Doing! If you've ever wondered what I've been hiding in this briefcase, buckle up, because today I finally (almost) reveal the ultra-secret, super-exclusive gadget that's been taking over Wan Pod Studios—though you'll have to hit subscribe and ring that bell if you want to be among the first mortals to see it in all its glory.We kick things off with a studio update: not only am I toying with an alien invasion down here in the Levi McCurdy hemisphere, but we're also launching a brand-new, music-and-amps podcast straight out of our guitar shop haven. If you're into pet oils, power chords, or pondering why guitars have volume knobs but no “volume demon”—this one's for you.Then it's on to crypto chaos: Bitcoin just blasted through $111,000—yes, you heard that right—and I'm praying to the crypto gods (hand motions included) that it holds. Meanwhile, XRP could double and solve half our national debt, so let's get those banks onboard! I even touch on the ever-lovely Hailey Welch and her constant need to convince us all that “snipers” lost money in that wild token scam—spoiler: regular folks got tanked too, Hailey.Wedding news: thanks to Bitcoin bull runs, we can finally afford to wrap up this wedding thing—Mexico, mid-July, beach vibes, open bar, please send tequila—and then I'll promptly bounce back for a $10,000 server bill. Because powering an empire isn't free, folks.Next, we roast the latest DoorDash + Klarna fiasco: financing your Crunchwrap like it's a mortgage? Eat now, cry later, America. Klarna's Q1 losses doubled to $150 million because apparently we'd rather pay $4 now and forget about it for three weeks than cough up $17—psychology 101. And if you want to short them, remember: the CEO just used an AI avatar to tell his board they could fire him and save millions. What are we doing?Shifting gears, we dive into the New Orleans jailbreak: ten dangerous felons, an inside job that involved turning off water and tagging “Too Easy →” on the wall (with a misspelled “two,” bless them). Half are back in cuffs, but three are still on the run—bet on Poly Market whether they'll be caught before GTA VI drops. Giddy up.Massive shout-out to Dude Robe for sponsoring today's episode—your gift-card stint at Home Depot ain't gonna cut it this Father's Day. Treat your pops to the ultimate hooded towel-hybrid: the Reversible Dude Hoodie, plus a matching robe (use code WOD for 20% off). Because Dad deserves more than socks.Finally, we blast through AI madness: Google IO's new Gemini tricks (live Meet translations, AI-powered try-ons so you can see yourself in that dress before you buy it), Video 3 and Google Flow that could have Spielberg calling for an agent, and OpenAI's $6.5 billion “IO” jab at Google, featuring Jony Ive's comeback to hardware design. If you're not experimenting with AI yet, congrats—you've already missed the boat.That's a wrap on 190—if you're still with me, hit like, subscribe, and ring that bell so you don't miss the big briefcase reveal, the new podcast launch, or my inevitable meltdown when I discover I've spent all my Bitcoin on dad-jokes. I've got to pick up my kid, DJ a wedding tomorrow, then sprint to Philly for a Post Malone weekend (Cheesecake Factory runs included).Happy Memorial Day, enjoy the holiday, and I'll catch you next Friday. Peace out—what are we doing?
Heading into Memorial Day weekend, we whipped up the top pop-biz stories about legendary business leaders from the last year:#1. Dolly Parton launched a new album, a food brand, & 78th birthday… So we jumped into her $600M Dollywood conglomerate.#2. Bill Gates' former assistant is now wealthier than him… It's a lesson on risk, reward, and makin' money.#3. Jony Ive designed the iPhone… and he just unveiled his next big (secret) thing.Share this episode with your buddy with your buddy who loves some inspo… or listen to it twice and then take on that next big thing.And if you crave more business storytelling from us?

This week, we kick things off with the return of Space Karen's meltdown tour: Elon Musk got flustered in an interview, sputtered out one-word answers, and called the journalist an “NPC,” which is rich coming from the guy whose only real upgrade since PayPal is yelling “freedom” in meme fonts. Meanwhile, 23andMe sold your DNA to Regeneron at a bankruptcy auction, proving once and for all that your spit is more valuable than most tech startups.IN THE NEWS is a parade of corporate idiocy and dystopian fuckery. Coinbase employees got bribed into leaking user data (because clearly we didn't have enough crypto chaos), Klarna keeps flip-flopping between AI and human workers like it's a bad Tinder date, and OpenAI is out here buying Jony Ive's design firm for $6.5 billion because sure, what's another billion when you're trying to build a surveillance device to stalk 100 million users? Meanwhile, the Chicago Sun-Times is publishing AI-generated trash with imaginary authors, Anthropic's new model attempts blackmail, and researchers dumped two billion Discord messages online just for kicks. And yes, Elon's Tesla robotaxis will now only roam the safest parts of Austin, which is code for “we still can't make this thing turn left.”In MEDIA CANDY, we're watching Murderbot, Godfather of Harlem, and Hotel Cocaine because who doesn't love a little synthetic assassin, crime drama, and coke-fueled nostalgia? Notepad.exe now writes for you (and probably files HR complaints too), and Audible is teaming up with publishers to replace narrators with robot voices. Yay, progress. Over in THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, Bittner brings the malware, monsters, and a new theme park review that's somehow less terrifying than the news. Bookworms, don't miss Curepedia and The AI Con — one's about goth gods, the other's about taking down our techno-overlords. And pour one out for George Wendt — Norm from Cheers is now drinking with the angels.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Bad news if you don't care about AI: this week was absolutely chock-full of AI news. First, Nilay, David, and The Verge's Alex Heath talk about the news that OpenAI and Jony Ive are teaming up to build... something. A gadget, for sure, maybe lots of gadgets.

After that, the hosts talk through all the news at Google I/O, including what's new with Gemini, Google Search, Project Astra, Project Mariner, and the countless other ways Google is putting AI absolutely everywhere. Finally, in the lightning round, we buckle up for another round of Brendan Carr is a Dummy, talk through some late-breaking Apple gadget news, and marvel over the future of conference calls.

Emily Forlini and Jennifer Pattison Tuohy are taking the reins of this week's episode! Does a robot vacuum really need an arm to help keep your home floors clean? Inside the chaotic struggle to keep Fisker EVs maintain connectivity. A wireless way to charge your low-powered smart devices. And insight into Sam Altman's company, OpenAI, acquiring Jony Ive's AI startup company, io. Jennifer shares her thoughts on Roborock's Saros Z70 Robot Vacuum after testing it out for some time. Emily talks about an association formed by Fisker owners following the company's bankruptcy and how it collapsed following disputes over costs and a botched software upgrade with American Lease. Jennifer also had the opportunity to use a new wireless power system from Wi-Charge, which uses infrared lasers to charge low-powered devices, such as smart locks, wirelessly. And Lauren Goode, Senior Correspondent for WIRED, joins Emily to discuss Sam Altman and Jony Ive's partnership to create AI hardware following OpenAI's acquisition of Jony Ive's io company.
