188 – Rockets and Reminiscing

In this episode of the show, Rich introduces a new segment called “Chunk Remembers…” before delving into the latest updates in the world of rocketry. (Spoiler alert, the segment caught Jay off-guard and fell flat). Blue Origin, led by Jeff Bezos, has resumed its flights, with Bezos emphasizing the urgency of their missions. Meanwhile, Elon Musk shifts his focus to Small and Medium businesses after his controversial remarks to major advertisers left him in hot water. Rich and Jay then engage in a discussion about the ongoing space race between the US and China, particularly concerning the development of military spacecraft, pondering the implications of this competition.

Shifting gears, they delve into the realm of tech news, highlighting Apple’s settlement of a $25 million class action lawsuit regarding family sharing. The lawsuit underscores the discrepancy between the promises of family sharing made by subscription-based apps and their actual limitations, raising questions about transparency and consumer rights in the digital marketplace.
