The answer to the riddle is APPLE and Tom Hanks LIED about that being hard to figure out. https://youtu.be/Wko-2c7lZL824 Aug 2026 17:22 +0000at://did:plc:d6yrj5mfpoxkwpjnakpfxe2f/app.bsky.feed.post/3mttsxcdk762whttps://bsky.app/profile/handle.invalid/post/3mtthqjvsin2uThis week’s main story is about why it seems like every company asks customers to sign up for a subscription, how those subscriptions can be intentionally difficult to get out of, and – of course – what Jeremy Renner might want to consider naming his next album.24 Aug 2026 14:01 +0000at://did:plc:d6yrj5mfpoxkwpjnakpfxe2f/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtthqjvsin2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/handle.invalid/post/3mtr5wee7wq2yWe’re back with a new show tonight at 11pm on HBO! Yup, perfectly on time, two weeks in a row! History books WILL remember John for starting the “punctual bitch” movement.

And we need the extra 15 minutes to catch up on the past month’s worth of news, of course.

All thanks to redrawing of congressional maps in key states, and a governor who sounds like Elmer Fudd. It’s not all on him, but he’s not helping.29 Jun 2026 15:00 +0000at://did:plc:d6yrj5mfpoxkwpjnakpfxe2f/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpgqwwufbc2chttps://bsky.app/profile/handle.invalid/post/3mpgqgxxm3p2vHere’s last night’s story about the widespread redrawing of congressional maps across the country, what it means for the midterm elections, and a small but relevant copywriting note for Domino’s Pizza. https://youtu.be/x9U71_dAEC829 Jun 2026 14:52 +0000at://did:plc:d6yrj5mfpoxkwpjnakpfxe2f/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpgqgxxm3p2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/handle.invalid/post/3mpeoj3t5p62wWe’re back with a new show tonight at 11:15pm!
