The OpenAI Brand Trip, and Ariana Grande Steps Back from the Public Eye

from We're Obsessed · host The Ringer

Jodi and Nora start out by talking about some reader-submitted affair updates, and the bizarre and wonderful ‘Wicker’ trailer. Then, they dive into the media surrounding OpenAI’s influencer brand trip in the Hudson Valley this past weekend, and touch on Jonah Hill’s appearance on the Smartless podcast. Next, they talk about some songstresses, including Martha Reeves’s national anthem performance at the Women’s Professional Baseball League opening game, and Ariana Grande’s music video for “Petal” and the statement saying she’s stepping back from the public eye. Finally, they sift through the answers to this week’s introspective question: What’s always making you wonder, “How do other people do this (very normal) thing, and is it the same way I do this thing, or are they doing it better?”0:00 Affair updates7:55 ‘Wicker’ trailer15:06 OpenAI influencer brand trip41:50 Jonah Hill on Smartless50:32 Martha Reeves’s national anthem57:08 Ariana Grande1:11:36 Introspective QuestionHosts: Jodi Walker and Nora PrinciottiProducer: Sasha Ashall Learn more about your ad choices.
