BAES 49: RIP to the baddest chainsmoker

We lost a big one, guys. A true legend. Above all else...a chainsmoker. We take a moment this week to talk about Jim Simons, who he was, and why you should care. Then we've also got a couple young guys who died suddenly at Bank of America, which is...bad. But anyway then we're talkin about HIMS now offering GLP-1 drugs, and of course, finally, we gotta talk about the ongoing drama over at OpenAI. Sam Altman is clearly a little drama slut.
