Stripe buys OpenRouter for billions, which naturally raises the question: did Stripe just buy critical AI infrastructure, or a very expensive router with great distribution? The original squad is back to debate why $7B acquisitions somehow feel normal now, whether Google already has agentic commerce won by owning your inbox, calendar, and Drive, and why Anthropic vs. OpenAI might be less about who has the best model and more about who built the right company. Sam makes the case that OpenAI pulled off the “greatest fundraising story in history,” Dave argues Grokbot might officially make AI a three-player race, and everyone tries to figure out how you price any of these companies when no lead seems to last. Plus, is AI a great investment or just a great trade, does the data center backlash actually have anything to do with data centers, have we built trillions of dollars of infrastructure before finding enough use cases for it, and, naturally in pop corner, Josh Kushner bought into the Lakers.Chapters:0:00 Episode trailer1:00 Episode start4:00 This week in AI5:00 Stripe buys OpenRouter8:30 Is OpenRouter actually worth billions?11:00 The agentic commerce bet14:00 Why Google could own the AI assistant17:30 The DOJ investigates Andreessen Horowitz22:00 Anthropic vs. OpenAI26:00 Why OpenAI is struggling in enterprise28:30 Can anyone actually price AI companies?30:00 OpenAI's “greatest fundraising story in history”33:30 Is AI a great investment or just a great trade?36:00 SpaceX, Moderna and narrative capitalism37:30 Grok enters the AI race41:00 AI makes software increasingly disposable45:00 The AI data center backlash47:30 “The backlash is that AI sucks”48:30 Did we build too much AI infrastructure?53:30 Josh Kushner, Thrive and the Lakers55:30 Travis Kelce enters the NIL businessWe're also on ↓X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspodInstagram: https://instagram.com/moreorlessYouTube: https://youtu.be/Xwzl-Ihyyr0Connect with us here:1) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin4) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit

The LA Lakers --- a prestigious basketball franchise that didn't change hands for 46 years --- just sold twice in ten months, the second time for $2.5 billion more than the first. The seller is Mark Walter, CEO of Guggenheim, owner of the Dodgers and part of Chelsea FC, and the man whose laptop and phone the FBI seized off his private jet just as the Lakers deal was coming together. Since then, one of the insurance companies in his orbit has revised its reported related-party investments from $1.4 billion to $17 billion. Quite the rounding error. In this episode, we get into the questions everyone on the Street is suddenly asking. Why would anyone sell the crown jewel of American sports a year after fighting to buy it? What do a bunch of boring life insurance companies most people have never heard of have to do with the trophy assets of the billionaire class? Why do private equity and private credit firms keep buying insurers in the first place — and what happens to that entire model when the disclosures around "related parties" turn out to be, let's say, incomplete? And why did Josh Kushner and Bob Iger, who spent months chasing a Las Vegas expansion team, pivot to the Lakers over a single weekend? The bigger question hanging over all of it: this structure — asset managers selling their own loans to insurance companies they control — underpins a massive share of the boom in private credit. If regulators start pulling on this thread, how many other portfolios look like this one? By way of disclaimer, no charges have been filed and no wrongdoing has been established nor is implied here; our research merely summarizes reporting from Bloomberg, the FT, the WSJ, and the LA Times.

Hour 1 The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 1 (8.17) Newlywed Mark Thompson is in the house and spilling the details on his wedding last week at the Beverly Hills Courthouse — so romantic! He joked the celebrant was so great he’s already planning to use her for his next wedding, and he fully expected the whole thing to feel like signing paperwork at a drive-thru window. (And no, the blushing groom did not take the bride’s last name.) The mood turns more serious as Timmy touches on the tragic news of Hayden Panettiere’s shocking passing at just 36 — a former child actress who endured a lot in Hollywood, had given up parental rights to her only child years earlier, and was found unresponsive in a South Carolina apartment from an apparent drug-related cardiac arrest. On the sports front, Jeanie Buss’s camp is denying rumors that the family is selling their Lakers stake to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger, leaving everyone wondering if all this ownership drama might finally help the once-golden franchise shine again. And for the lighter closer: Ever drop your phone in the toilet? Mark’s come close, Timmy just had to buy a new one, and there’s a new gadget in town — the UAG Dryout Pouch — that claims to rescue wet phones without the old bag-of-rice method.

DR1THINGS WE MISSEDNERDY ESG STUFFL3Harris ousts CEO after investigation into conduct CARESL3Harris Technologies, the company that overhauled a Qatari plane now used as Air Force One, has replaced Christopher Kubasik as chairman and chief executive after an investigation determined he violated the defense contractor's code of conduct.Kubasik's alleged conduct didn't involve and has no impact on the Melbourne, Fla., company's financial reporting, controls, customer relationships or operational performance, L3Harris said Monday.The company didn't give details on when it received a report of the potential violation. With the aid of independent counsel, the board determined that Kubasik's removal would be in the company's best interest, L3Harris said. He will be allowed to retain and exercise some previously vested stock options but won't receive severance payments, benefits or accelerated stock-based awards.L3Harris Technologies Appoints Sam Mehta, Proven Aerospace and Defense Executive, as President and Chief Executive Officer“The Board determined that the Executive engaged in conduct that was not consistent with the values of the Company as outlined in its Code of Conduct.”Kubasik will still hold onto some of his options that can net him stock worth about $23 million, as well as more than 200,000 shares of stock in L3Harris that he already owns, valued at nearly $57 million. L3Harris has paid Kubasik compensation valued at $66.3 million during the past three years, including $25.6 million in fiscal 2025.The separation disclosure says the L3Harris board decided to reach a deal with Kubasik to get him to leave rather than trying to fire him for cause. Kubasik did not admit to any violation of the company code of conduct, and the deal expressively forbids any of the parties or their representatives from making public statements “inconsistent” with Monday's disclosure.Harvard reveals $2.2 billion SpaceX holding worth more than half its U.S. equity portfolio CARESBusting CEO Pay Curve in 2025, Musk Made Annual Salary of Average Tesla Worker Every 4.2 SecondsS&P 500 CEO pay jumps to record as Musk-inspired compensation plans spread: average S&P 500 CEO pay reached $340.1 millionUS SEC to keep hands off shareholder proposals, worrying activists CARESStaying Alive: ISS Continues Its Influence on 2026 Voting OutcomesISS recommended against fewer say-on-pay proposals than last year: 8.3% versus 9.2% in 2025.ISS supported fewer E&S proposals than in prior years, but investor votes more strongly tracked its recommendations.

This Weekend Rewind opens with the Lakers' stunning $12.5B sale to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger, then rolls through an NFL training camp injury wave, fresh MLB power rankings, and the NBA's 2026-27 schedule release.ON THIS EPISODE:

The news that billionaire venture capitalist Josh Kushner and former Disney CEO Bob Iger are buying a controlling stake in the Los Angeles Lakers at a record-breaking $12.5 billion valuation, first reported by ESPN on Wednesday morning, came as a shock in more ways than one. The deal breaks Walter's own record for the purchase price of a professional sports team, less than a year after his $10 billion deal to take a control interest in the Lakers from the Buss family—who sold the team after 46 years—closed in October, and it once again resets the rest of the market for the rest of the NBA. This year has also included record-breaking team sale agreements in the NFL and MLB. Venture capitalist Vinod Khosla led an investor group that agreed to buy the Seattle Seahawks for $9.6 billion in August, and private equity manager José E. Feliciano's family reached a deal in May to buy the San Diego Padres for $3.9 billion. By Hank Tucker, Forbes Staff Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

They pull apart what that says about Trump's cowardice, Israel's ability to manipulate the administration, and the Secret Service's ongoing institutional failure. From there, they break down the Wisconsin Democratic primary, where Francesca Hong lost to David Crowley by 3,000 votes after corporate media spent weeks framing the race around Thanksgiving tweets and Hassan Piker instead of actual policy, while a $15 million centrist operation quietly bankrolls opposition research against every leftist candidate in the country. The Lakers sale to Bob Iger and Josh Kushner for $12.5 billion gets the full treatment as a case study in oligarchical consolidation under a corrupt administration, with Kushner now sitting on the board of A24 and reviving Life magazine while private equity moves into the Yankees. They close on Caroline Leavitt's resignation and the pointlessness of Ted Lasso season four.

Let's just say a lot of ground was covered in the episode. We could try to describe it but you wouldn't believe us anyway.

Today's Headlines: Karoline Leavitt is leaving her job as White House Press Secretary at the end of August, officially to spend more time with her family, though the timing — coming weeks after her boss used the press corps as an Iran assassination decoy — raises some questions. On the never-ending reflecting pool drama, Jeanine Pirro convened a rare special grand jury to investigate the reflecting pool vandalism case, even after admitting there's no case against the former Olympian they arrested. Meanwhile, cyberattacks have hit water systems in 12 states over the past few years, with 30 Minnesota systems targeted last month alone, and what remains of US cyber intelligence confirmed Iran did it — but Trump is blaming Tim Walz, because of course he is. In other news, multiple US Navy sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have attempted to jump overboard during a record 250-consecutive-day deployment with severe shortages of soap, toothpaste, hot water, food, and toilet paper, and Pete Hegseth — who built himself a personal salon at the Pentagon — called their accounts "fake news." Josh Kushner and Bob Iger are buying the Los Angeles Lakers for a record $12.5 billion, pending NBA board approval, from an insurance billionaire currently under investigation, so something is sus about this one. In primary results, DSA candidate Francesca Hong lost the Wisconsin governor's Democratic primary to David Crowley — who had dropped out and then re-entered after Tony Evers panicked — Mike Lindell lost the Minnesota Republican governor primary and is claiming voter fraud, and Lindsey Graham's sister Darlindsey fell short of 50% in South Carolina heading to a runoff against congressman Ralph Norman on August 25th.

Mark Walter bought the Lakers in October at a $10 billion valuation and just sold them to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger for $12.5 billion, clearing a $2.5 billion profit in under a year. Covino and Rich react to the biggest flip in sports history and then dig up the other great steals: Steinbrenner getting the Yankees from CBS for $10 million, Jerry Jones buying the Cowboys for $140 million, Blockbuster passing on Netflix at $75 million, Facebook grabbing Instagram for a billion, Manhattan for a satchel of beads, and the part of the Babe Ruth sale nobody bothers to explain. There is also a $600 hair restoration helmet that showed up on a clearance shelf in Idaho for fifty bucks. Then it is time for They Might Be Ass, where Rich goes through the Arizona Cardinals schedule game by game and explains why the Carson Beck preseason hype is a trap and why Vegas setting the win total at three and a half is still too generous. And because today is the anniversary of South Park's 1997 debut, the guys count down their top three adult cartoons of all time, with Beavis and Butt-Head, Ren and Stimpy, Gravity Falls, Family Guy and South Park all in the mix.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 1 (8.12) The biggest news in SoCal? The LA Lakers have been flipped in record time, sold for a staggering $12.5 billion to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger. Previous owner Mark Walter walked away with a cool $2.5 billion profit after owning the team for only a few months. Can The Foosh even name the Lakers’ all-time greats? With seven planets aligning tonight, Timmy brings in the Duke of Sports Eric Sklar to break down the wild deal. Walter had bought a majority stake for $10 billion in June 2025, only for federal insurance impropriety questions to surface a month ago — and now this lightning-fast $12.5 billion flip. Still mourning Jackie the bald eagle, who passed after weeks of intensive care at a SoCal raptor center, Timmy welcomes new KFI reporter Jason Nathanson to the studio to track what will happen with her remains. And California Attorney General candidate Michael Gates calls in to talk campaign, challenging Rob Bonta for the job. We’re rooting for him! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ken and Lima bring in producer John to recap the Guardians' 6-4 win over the Tigers behind Foster Griffin, Angel Martinez's three-hit game, and Steven Kwan's continued hot streak, while framing Jose Ramirez's visible frustration after an error as a good sign for a team that hit rock bottom days earlier, though Anthony admits he's nervous about Ramirez playing through injury. The bulk of the segment covers Mark Walter selling the Lakers to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger for $12.5 billion, a $2 billion profit in just 14 months, which the guys use to argue the NBA is thriving financially despite narratives about the league struggling, pointing to recent Boston and Dallas sale prices and expansion fee estimates. They debate whether the Lakers or Dodgers are more popular in L.A. versus globally, and pivot into a broader discussion on single-owner versus ownership-group models in sports, weighing accountability against the risk of a meddling owner, with the old Browns relocation brought up as a cautionary tale. The segment closes with a quick take on Russell Westbrook's retirement, comparing his legacy and fan appeal to James Harden's.
