Because to convince a skeptical public that self-driving cars are actually safe, you need a public spectacle.
And a red eye robo taxi ride is just that.
That's a good idea.
Brianna, this is actually inspired by a book we read about the Brooklyn Bridge.
So when they built that bridge across the East River, New Yorkers didn't believe it's possible that such a gigantic, spanning bridge could hold people.
So they called up the Ringling Brothers Circus and got a dozen elephants in broad daylight to walk across the bridge.
That's the kind of public spectacle that we think Americans are going to need to believe that self-driving cars are safe.
So a CEO is going to live stream his eight-hour snooze on YouTube going from San Francisco to Las Vegas in a red-eye robo-taxi ride.
Although, Nick, everyone's talking about Elon Musk and Sam Altman.
Kim Kardashian may be the most culturally exciting IPO if it happens with Skims.
Ticker symbol for that's got to be Kim.
They're selling a billion dollars of merchandise right now, which has grown so fast.
Their private market valuation is five times that, $5 billion.
They're adding 18 new stores in 2026.
That's faster than Kris Jenner can get a facelift.
If skins hit the stock market, that might be even more exciting than SpaceX.
So two iconic brands, one of which Nick owns stock in.
Sorry, Nick.
Have hit their darkest moments in decades.
We're talking about Nike and Starbucks.
