Fiverr Growing Pains and RNC Grindr Strains

On this week's show, the boys are talkin' Fiverr who's expanding its platform from a freelance marketplace to a "hiring platform," introducing new features like profession-based talent search and hourly rates. They are also adding AI-powered tools to enhance project management and user experience. Chad sees this as Fiverr growing up and moving away from short-term projects to longer-term relationships. However, Cheese sees it as a desperate move to compete in a changing landscape. What's more, Chad and Joel discuss various topics including the impact of AI on productivity, Joe Biden's decision to withdraw from the presidential race, Kamala Harris's qualifications, and the GOP convention's effect on Grindr usage. They highlight the need for proper implementation of AI to avoid increased workloads and burnout. They also emphasize the importance of knowing when to step down as a leader, and they discuss the potential benefits of age-gating in politics. Additionally, they address the Republican strategy of discrediting leaders of color and the significance of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
