About this episode

Lululemon’s stock jumped 19% Friday because it’s obsessed with one word
 “Newness.”

Shaboozy’s “A Bar Song” just set a music record
 but it’s a biz lesson on breaking genres.

Google just unveiled its most powerful AI product yet
 the ultimate weather predictor.

Plus, TikTok will officially be banned in January
 but that may be the biggest productivity boost for the American economy ever.
