Hogging seats on a crowded train, not saying excuse me, watching videos on your phone with no headphones in. Sometimes it feels like we don't know how to act anymore. What we have been seeing, increasingly, is people breaking rules. Why should I play by the rules if nobody else is going to do that for me? This week on Explain It to Me, how to mind your manners. New episodes, Sundays, wherever you go. Yeah.
So NVIDIA selling guardrails is like an arms dealer selling bulletproof vests.
Hi everyone, this is Pivot from New York magazine and the Vox Media Podcast Network. I'm Kara Swisher.
And I'm Scott Galloway.
So how is this weekend? I spent the weekend with Ari Emmanuel too, because I'm interviewing him Tuesday. This is rolling the calls. This is his book.
Oh how what did you think?
It's very deep without him intending it to be, I s I think. It's gonna be a really um
he he's accidentally thoughtful.
No, he likes to like do a lot of hand waving and then he reveals something that I don't think he intends to. Anyway, how was your weekend without me?
Um So I don't mean to cop out but one of the rules is it's supposed to be all off the record and I want to get invited back. Um what I am comfortable saying is there was a session with Rahm Emanuel. And he was very strong.
Yeah. He is
he and I I gotta give Rom his due here. He's one of the few democratic candidates. Is actually Talking about ideas. Ideas, yes. And the problem with they're all at this point they're all trying to cosplay Obama and talk about coming together and it's okay, w w what are you gonna do about healthcare? That's what I wanna. And I think we need to go and they all rag on Trump. Uh I think we need to move from indignance to ideas. And right now I would argue Rom. Maybe a little bit Mayor Pete, maybe a little bit actually I think Senator Booker's taking some good swings. They they really aren't saying much of anything. You could argue Governor Newsom through his actions is is saying something, but anyways, I I d I don't mean to be critical of the other candidates, but Rom deserves, and maybe it's because he's at one or two percent, but I think he's gonna be more of a factor.
My thesis about Rom, and I'm curious to get your take. I think he's the Secretary Clinton of this race. And that is I I think he's the policy
guy. He's the policy guy.
I think he's arguably the most qualified person running.
Possibly.
Congressperson, mayor of a city. He's got tactical experience. He was the he was the chief of staff for Obama. But at the same time, Secretary Clinton wasn't a great candidate. I'm not sure Rom. I saw I went up to Rom and I don't think he appreciated this, quite frankly, and I said, I love that you're talking about ideas. You need to be sharper, uh more passionate. I said, quite frankly, you're you're you're coming across like a policy wonk and that that puts people to sleep.
Yeah. Well, it's his only thing. It's his thing 'cause it's not he's not tall, dark and dreamy, right? He's really and he's intense and he's he can be difficult. Um, so uh I I appreciate it. It's just the question of whether the voters will, right? That's the thing. You have to have both, you know, a policy. And if if it's style over substance style tends to sometimes win, obviously. Oh. I
hope so. He's gonna be additive. He's gonna I he I think I I don't know how far he's gonna go. What I know is he's gonna be additive to the dialogue. Because he does a great job on a lot of issues.
