Then they talk about the GeekWire piece about Anduril, the defense company that is quietly building drone ships on the ship canal, and its eccentric owner, Palmer Luckey, who seems to love Lord of the Rings. Finally, they give their recs for their weekend and say ‘farewell and be well.’ But that’s not all!
