Added 2023-11-01 21:48:13 +0000 UTC

Sony-owned Bungie laid off around 100 people. What does it mean for the Destiny game and what does it say about the health of the industry? And YouTube has launched its ad-blocker prevention efforts worldwide. Plus which types of searches generated the most ad revenue for Google?

It's So Y2K - GDI 4637 starts at 37:11

Why not Zoidberg? LinkedIn passes 1 billion members and adds A.I. tools to help you find a new job. How will employees that have access to a job finding A.I. work? Do you care what the spoon looks like? Jobs talk takes over. Do your kids care about your stuff? Have you bought any Y2K clothes? Sarah doesn't know how to be a child. Who has the baton? What throwback is fun for you? How long would you sit for a painting? So many thoughts on high school pictures.

Starring Tom Merritt. Sarah Lane, Scott Johnson, Roger Chang, Joe.
