Pay Us Enough To Live

from JWSP · host Alex Midway and Eric Halsey

We open with a quote this week — and trust us, you're going to want to guess who said it before we tell you. Tesla gets a so-called "upgrade" that, once you read what it actually means, raises more questions than it answers — including what happens when the company's biggest bet doesn't scale.The Easter ceasefire came and went, and both sides have the receipts — nearly 4,000 combined violations worth. We get into what Russia's idea of "negotiations" actually looks like at the table, and why the sports world quietly rolling out the welcome mat for Russian and Belarusian athletes deserves a lot more attention than it's getting.The big story this week is Hungary, where something remarkable happened at the ballot box — and the details of how it happened, who made it happen, and what it could mean for Europe are genuinely worth understanding. We give you the full backstory on the man who pulled it off, the party with the interesting name, and why one very prominent American has been conspicuously silent about the whole thing.Closer to home, a warehouse in California went up in spectacular fashion, the internet has feelings about it, and the comparisons to a certain incarcerated menu planner are already flying. We break down the math, the motive, and why the story people are actually telling about it might be the most interesting part.We close out with the ladies dedication this week — you'll know it when you hear it.Got feedback? We want to hear it.
