Why did Bud Light lose its top‑selling spot?
Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile. Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for $15 a month is back.
How is AI driving new forms of insurance fraud?
So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills. But it turns out That's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.
Upfront payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months, or $180 for 12 month plan required. $15 per month equivalent. Taxes and fees extra. Initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes. May slow when network is busy. See terms.
Could you pick it up for me, please? I need you to pick it up for me. It fell closer to you. Hold on. Hold on. Thank you. Thank you. Could you back up your chair like one second?
Okay.
I think your shoes are untied. Can you look down and check? Can you look down and check, please? No, don't do it that way. What are you doing? I need you to pick up my pen.
I got your pen.
You're doing it the wrong way. Welcome back to Lemonade State, everybody. What are you trying to do? It's good to be back this week. There's dire news. Dire news.
That's not what it is. That's not what it is. I'm taking control. You're going crazy. How do you explain how good my portfolio is doing? Throwing stuff at me. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the lemonade stand. Okay? This guy has been squeezed like a tube of toothpaste by his other podcast, The Yard.
We get a desiccated husk of a man.
We get a husk of a man.
They drop him off after school. They do. He's wiped and tired. And he's wiped out.
And we have to say, Aiden, tell us about the markets.
What's the Nordic fun fact? What do you think about Korea? And he's just dropping pants and trying to harass me, I think.
I'm loaded with pace for you guys. You've got pace? I've got pace left.
Why don't you just tease the paste we're talking about today?
No, you gotta go bottom up. They squeeze from the middle.
They would. They would squeeze from the middle.
They're lazy.
They squeeze from the middle. Alright, we'll squeeze you bottom up today. Uh... Let me just crack open a delicious... Stop! With the Red Bull! Guys, we're getting off track. I don't want to bring you in. You know who else is getting squeezed like Aiden is? Investors in this crazy stock market. Wow. That's a transition there. That was good. Today... Well, Perry, you got to be on the slides. He's on the camera.
Can I be honest with you? Yeah, be honest with me, Aiden. Because you're saying the investors are getting squeezed. Yeah. And I opened the New York Times this morning. Yep. And the S&P is at a record high.
We had a record high today.
Which means that everybody at home is probably doing fine.
Yeah. Regular people rejoice.
How do you explain the thumbnail that presumably shows a big giant red arrow pointing downwards? How do we explain?
That's a great question.
How do we explain that we've somehow framed this?
I'll get to that. So today, the U.S. stock market hit record highs. The S&P had all-time highs. And of course, it was due to the greatest reason of all time. A deal to open Hormuz is imminent. Thank God. Finally. Finally, we have this piece of news in this podcast. We've never covered this before. It's always been something we've been hoping for.
From a highest quantity of deals of any president I know.
Well, deal's announced. And what's awesome is that the market took this and ran with it and rent record highs, even though not but 18 hours before this, Iran had said there absolutely is no talks on Hormuz. And I feel like we've done all this before.
