About this episode

Amex just jacked up the fee for its Platinum card to $895… so we used AI to optimize the points.

Did Nike just collab with Costco on a shoe?... Could be a deepfake - or an intentional Nike leak.

Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show just got canceled… but you can follow the money to a $6B acquisition.

Plus, NBA star Kevin Durant forgot his Coinbase password… so it’s now worth Bitcoin millions.
