Short description

A weekly show where two smart, funny, slightly dangerous women discuss technology, business, money, and ambition — and say the part everyone else leaves out.

Long description

Every week, the hosts pull up a barstool to the biggest topics in AI, tech, business, investing, careers, and leadership — and treat them the way smart people actually talk about them: with evidence, experience, dry humor, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Expect headlines stripped of hype, corporate jargon put on trial, money confessions, gossip with the names removed, and advice nobody asked for. It's happy hour with two exceptionally well-informed women who have earned the right to have a drink, have an opinion, and say what everyone else is thinking. With all due respect, of course.
