Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Kyle Hagee. Today, an NBA franchise set the record for the most expensive sale in pro sports history.
And the U.S. hits its lowest ranking ever in the World Happiness Report. It's Friday, March 21st. Let's ride. Let's ride.
Kyle's here. Manu Ginobili, sixth man of the year, is back to fill in for Toby today. Kyle, how are you feeling this Friday?
I'm feeling great. It's good to be back in the Manu Ginobili spot.
So ever since buy now, pay later, giant Klarna filed for an IPO last week. It's been inking partnerships left and right. And its latest move yesterday raised a lot of eyebrows and led to a lot of jokes. It made a deal with DoorDash to put its payments tech into the delivery app.
So now you will be able to pay for your DoorDash burrito or Pad Thai in four equal interest-free installments or even defer payments until what Klarna calls a more convenient time. Kyle, are you on board with eat now, pay later?
I think I'm on board. I feel like I'm doing something wrong. My Grubhub orders, my DoorDash orders, they've never been that big. Like, should I be ordering more stuff? And I need to be hitting like triple digits here.
no that's not i don't think that's the wild here it's just to establish clarna as the go i mean yes this is the business strategy behind it to establish clarna as sort of the go-to payments portal that you go to whenever you buy anything doesn't matter the size but obviously the size of uh the order of what you typically do on doordash is not that big which led to you know a huge social media uh joke fest around this news yesterday
I'm going for over $100 on Taco Bell later today.
