Ben Shapiro: I finally posted my first BuzzFeed article to social media. It was one of those hilarious BuzzFeed articles that it's like a little less serious, right? So yeah, it was it was it seemed to be the week of BuzzFeed. You wrote something really cool on it not too long ago, actually. And just as an example of how, you know, I can have more grace when I'm not in the middle of the debate.
In this week’s episode Ben and James discuss BuzzFeed in the context of the Brother Orange story, then talk about Amazon’s Dash Button and Home Services initiative, along with a dive into the technical details of Amazon’s balance sheet (sorry, it’s a bit dry) and why Ben is nervous.
