Group Chat News is back with a midweek episode because there was too much news to wait. Apple finally dropped the foldable. The iPhone Duo starts at $1,999, preorders open October 16 and it ships October 23. The guys get into whether a folding phone is actually worth two grand or whether it's pure novelty, why the phone might be the most valuable object you own even at that price, and what happens now that Tim Cook is out and John Ternus is running the company. The read on the new guy is that he's a gunslinger who takes big swings, and that the stock gets a lot more volatile from here. Then Meta. Everybody counted Zuck out on AI and this week he dropped Muse, a consumer agent that connects to WhatsApp, your email, your calendar and your payments and actually does things instead of just talking to you. The stock jumped 7% on a $1.5 trillion company. The conversation goes into why Meta might be the only company that can connect all your worlds without a privacy fight, why consumer AI still feels boring compared to what businesses are doing with it, and the theory that most of this technology was built months ago and is being released slowly on purpose. That leads into the resignation post that got 104 million views. A former AI lab employee walked out and torched the whole industry on the way, and the guys spend a while on why anyone would do that two weeks before an IPO. The theories get out of hand fast and it's the funniest stretch of the episode. Plus the argument that we have no idea what's already been built, and why prosperity might solve more problems than regulation ever will. On the money side, gambling. Polymarket lets you sell your position mid game and the guys explain why that changes everything. LeBron signed a reported eight figure deal to be the face of it and is getting roasted. Bank of America data shows the average online bettor has 41% less in their bank account than someone who doesn't bet. The pitch here is simple: forget AI regulation, cap gambling at 10% of your income. Plus LIV Golf files for bankruptcy, Saudi money is drying up, and everything available is flowing into AI. Then Ryan Tierney from Lo Siento joins to talk about what's actually happening in bars across the country. Whether Gen Z really stopped drinking, why a drink costs $30 in LA and $3.50 in Chicago, why wine is getting crushed while ready to drink cans are exploding, and how you build a tequila brand into 40 states in 60 days. And football is back. Group Chat News, every week. If you enjoy the show, please leave us a 5-star review on Apple or Spotify. It helps more than you know.
