The Best One Yet

The hosts also discuss Happy Gilmore 2's marketing strategy using celebrity cameos, consumer surveillance trends, and other news items including a shooting in New York City, Waymo's partnership with Avis in Dallas, and controversy around Sidney Sweeney's American Eagle collaboration.
