Morning Brew
About this episode

Episode 408: Neal and Toby examine the latest AI scam that duped the music industry of a whopping $10 million over 7 years. Then, the inflation rate hits the lowest since early 2021, which points all signs towards an incoming rate cut. Next, Campbell’s Soup drops the “soup” from its name because it’s branching out beyond its iconic tin can. Plus, Neal shows his favorite numbers from Raygun, the pandemic’s effect on teenage brains, and spacewalking. Lastly, Michael Jordan’s mansion is filled with invaluable collectibles from the basketball legend…and that’s why he can’t sell it.
