Inexcusable. Either Wayne’s in it or you keep Newman’s name out of your damn ad

Technically if it’s solo then it’s an exhibition not a contest but the point stands

Update - the titles of these shows (all K dramas btw) are silly. And Gina keeps recommending anime’s despite repeated reminders that the older generation doesn’t like cartoons!

On the rare occasion someone’s aware of a show, they bailed on it and are then scolded to “keep going” because it gets good

It’ll be BYD that does it first. After the Ford Lightnings flop ($60k & under powered battery), no one here 🇺🇸 wants to lead

Lower cost than lithium-ion would be neat but it’s S-I’s cold weather performance that is the real killer app

Right now, I wouldn’t consider more than a hybrid (horror stories about cutting range in half if you want to run the heater in winter)

It’s 2026 and 4/5 of the most/last influential late night hosts started in this little Time Warner backwater (Kimmel/Colbert/Maher/Stewart). Even Bill Nye the Science Guy gets his break through CC (they buy the Seattle sketch show he’s part of)
