About this episode

The episode discusses the UAE's departure from OPEC, OpenAI's revenue struggles, and other current events including Jimmy Kimmel's controversy and Joby Aviation's electric air taxi flight.

Episode 834: Neal and Toby chat about the United Arab Emirates leaving OPEC next month, after six decades of membership, and how it’ll impact the global oil supply. Next, OpenAI reports missing key revenue targets, which sends companies linked to the ChatGPT-maker into a tailspin. Then, Jimmy Kimmel is back in Trump’s crosshairs again as he calls for the host’s firing after a joke made days before the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting. Meanwhile, Joby Aviation completes its first electric air taxi flight from JFK to Manhattan.
