In this episode, Kyle and Michael discuss the turmoil caused by PRx's recent actions in the home gym equipment space, particularly focusing on the controversy surrounding PRx's Halo Arms and their impact on smaller innovators like Vendetta and GymPin. Initially hopeful about a constructive response from PRx, the duo discusses how PRx's eventual statement fell flat, feeling corporate and insincere.
