And we're off again! This week the lads discuss $BRK.B Buffet - the controversial 13F, Snowflakes & is ARPU that big of a BUZZ?! What's more, Texas goes under. Speaking of which, over in Oz, did Google throttle it & $FB bottle it? Tune in for the usual banter & get the scoop on Ai with Aerion who looks to go supersonic with SPAC $ALTU (or so the whispers suggest!).
