BAES 69: Longshoremen Victory

from The Ben and Emil Show · host Ben and Emil

The longshoremen union and the UMX came to a temporary agreement recently but it only kicked the can to January...and it's not looking good. It's not just about money; it's one of the first major battles in the coming war between workers and automation. We'll explain why it's not so simple. PLUS we've got some Harvard nerds who figured out one of the worst use cases for the new $META smart glasses, and a poor Canadian sap who made $306 million dollars and then lost it all. What a week. What an episode. HUGE shout out to Kyla Scanlon and her article on the Longshoremen strike, which you can check out here: https://kyla.substack.com/p/the-biggest-man-made-disaster-ever?r=1lckxb&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true Leave a comment to be featured as the comment of the week next week!
