Speaker 1 This is Right About Now with Ryan Alford, a Radcast Network Production.

Speaker 1 We are the number one business show on the planet with over 1 million downloads a month,

Speaker 1 taking the BS out of business for over six years and over 400 episodes. You ready to start snapping next and cashing checks? Well, it starts right about now.

Speaker 2 Right about now. What's up, guys? Welcome to Right About Now.
It is Friday, January 24th, 2025. It's our weekly business news of the week.

Speaker 2 Ryan and Chris coming to you from Miami and Greenville, South Carolina. What's up, Chris?

Speaker 3 Just trying to stay warm down here, brother.

Speaker 2 Warm?

Speaker 2 I know.

Speaker 3 I'm sitting thinking we're in like the southernmost part of the U.S. and it's like 50.

Speaker 2 Dude, it was... It was 17 degrees in Greenville, South Carolina on Wednesday.
You guys got to see it. At a high of 30.

Speaker 2 We aren't used to that. Look, I don't have a coat for that shit.

Speaker 2 Yeah, we did. It snowed.
They called for all the snow last week, and then we got like a nice half an inch late yesterday afternoon. It just got kind of out of nowhere.

Speaker 3 I saw

Speaker 3 eight inches in Pensacola, Florida today.

Speaker 2 Is that a record?

Speaker 2 Yeah, it is. It's crazy.
Global warming.

Speaker 2 Yeah, dude. And somebody's going to DM me.
Oh, that's not how it works. The fact that it's actually getting colder where it's not supposed to is a sign of global warming i know whatever

Speaker 2 so yeah

Speaker 2 whatever it is it was cold here in south carolina still cold man i i you know i'm starting to long for that spring and summer but you know i will say this chris and i are stepping it up today you know we're usually fairly casual i said chris let's let's show what we're about today you know i got a little i i'd wore a button down i don't think on the show maybe ever chris is rocking black black.

Speaker 2 I got white, ebony, and ivory.

Speaker 3 Yes.

Speaker 3 Yin-yang.

Speaker 2 I know. Looking sharp.
Looking sharp. Talking about the business, giving you the business.

Speaker 3 I'm feeling like you need a new setup here, like a desk, a little more professional, you know?

Speaker 2 I don't know.

Speaker 2 We're still the business casual. It'd be a good name for a podcast.
Maybe

Speaker 3 walking one of those walking desks would be perfect.

Speaker 2 Yeah, exactly. Exactly.

Speaker 2 Here we are, the walking walking desk studio but i hope everyone's doing great we have trump who got inaugurated on monday and a lot of the it's affected all all the news because there's so much business stuff i tell you what

Speaker 2 this guy's not messing around uh more

Speaker 2 i don't know things enacted in in four days than i'm i think biden got done four years or at least i don't know four quarters So

Speaker 2 just flying around, flying around. Can't keep up with the headlines.
It's like AI this, crypto that. We got the Trump coin.

Speaker 2 Ceasefire in Gaza.

Speaker 3 It's like, oh, a lot of, a lot of changes very quickly happening.

Speaker 2 I know. This is what it's supposed to look like.

Speaker 2 This is what peace on earth feels like. Yeah, peace on earth and activity.
And hey, and the American way.

Speaker 2 Forward,

Speaker 2 you know? Unity forward. Gearing people together, getting tech together.
And all they want to do is pan the, oh, is the rich getting richer? No,

Speaker 2 but you need all these people to make shit happen, they make opportunities and jobs happen, and all that. It does trickle down, folks.

Speaker 2 Not saying that's the only way, I'm not always saying it's top-down,

Speaker 2 but I'm saying top-down does work when you need to get activity moving and you need all the politics and bullshit out of the way. So, so far, I like what I'm seeing.

Speaker 2 You don't have to like everything, but lots of good stuff. Uh, I, you know,

Speaker 2 I will say

Speaker 2 it is a fine line with the Trump coin.

Speaker 2 Like

Speaker 2 he's in office and he, look, I love, I love him for it and also raise my eyebrow to him, you know, like for the same thing.

Speaker 2 He's in the public eye.

Speaker 2 He kind of gets free press every day as a person, you know, removing the presidency from it that you and I and no one else gets because he's the president of the United States and he was voted in.

Speaker 2 But, you know, launching a business venture, the Trump coin, I don't know all the financials behind it, but I would assume it just goes to, I think he owns 80% of it, him and him and Melania.

Speaker 2 It does go, that's convenient, like, right?

Speaker 3 It's, it's interesting because

Speaker 3 up until this point, we've had a lot of, you know, kind of celebrities and musicians and stuff trying to do their own coins.

Speaker 3 None of them really work or they're kind of, and I get it to a degree, part of it's more of a community builder, like collector

Speaker 3 or something, right?

Speaker 3 Trump is like the king of merch, dude. And this is really just like another level of merch in a way, you know? Yeah, totally community in another way.
And honestly, I'm shocked it took this long.

Speaker 3 There's been some coins related to him, but not directly.

Speaker 2 But does it give you heartburn at all that he launches? It's so

Speaker 2 beneficial to his bottom, personal bottom line. He launches it the day before he's inaugurated.

Speaker 3 I don't have a problem with it personally because as a crypto guy, and I talked with some friends about this yesterday, because we were all kind of had the same conversation, like, is this bad taste?

Speaker 3 And a lot of people got turned off more when the Volania coin dropped, the Baron coin, where they're like, all right, Trump's won, but now you're kind of trying to just cash in on everyone.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 3 However, as a whole, I'll tell you, my dad called me last night.

Speaker 2 Oh, Trump launched a coin.

Speaker 3 My dad doesn't know anything about crypto. So I'm happy with just the awareness it brought to crypto as a whole.
And that's where I think Trump is smart.

Speaker 3 I think there's more to this than just, I don't think Trump's just trying to make a quick buck. Don't get me wrong, they made a lot of money.
But I think there's more to this than just the meat coin.

Speaker 3 I think this is

Speaker 3 a great marketing play to get a lot of people talking about crypto and looking into it.

Speaker 2 Yeah. I look, I can,

Speaker 2 if I'm going to wear the sleeve of kind of taking the bullshit out and talking all sides a little bit, even if I, you know, my personal beliefs tend to slant one, I can understand a little bit of a lot of raised eye a little.

Speaker 2 I just think, I do think it does open opportunity up for people to get into Bitcoin because you can ride the wave of whatever his coin does too.

Speaker 2 And so he may own it and it is benefiting him directly, but it is sort of serving the purpose of the policy.

Speaker 2 It's a fine line.

Speaker 2 And I could, and I wouldn't, you know, if someone came in to do a debate, I don't know I could,

Speaker 2 how long I could fight them off on their side of having issue with this on some level.

Speaker 2 But I can also personally see the upside,

Speaker 2 you know, more universally like you.

Speaker 3 And put it this way, I'd rather have him do this than have our Congress and our people in the Senate insider trading that are voting and creating laws. just to benefit their portfolios, right?

Speaker 3 I think there's more foul play in that

Speaker 3 because Trump coin isn't related on government contracts or who gets this contract or where we're going to develop this, where those are the decisions made in the Congress and Senate on these committees, right?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 3 Where you're directly influencing based on your stock portfolio. Whether Trump owns Trump Coin or I own it,

Speaker 3 it's irrelevant kind of

Speaker 3 because it really is just

Speaker 2 novelty in a way, right?

Speaker 3 I could see him saying, okay, now.

Speaker 2 Yeah, but I mean, but if you know, let's go down that road. Like, I hear what you're saying, but like, for okay, he comes out four years.
His family, let's just say it holds the value.

Speaker 2 It says on paper now, it's like $50 billion. Like, we all know that'll probably go down or whatever.
But

Speaker 2 when he comes out of office,

Speaker 2 his and his family never comes, you know, serves office again. And Donald Trump Jr.
and his sons and his sons and his sons have legacy financial support

Speaker 2 from from that coin launching because he was president and the popularity that it had.

Speaker 2 That's where the heartbird comes in for people, right?

Speaker 3 Yeah, but I would challenge people. I mean, the man has been a billionaire prior.
Like,

Speaker 3 he's opened new hotels since he was president and no one kind of said anything about that. You know what I mean? And that would require more nefarious activity as far as using your influence to get

Speaker 3 into certain countries, into contracts, whatever.

Speaker 2 I think we can all just admit that he gets some leeways that very few before him ever have

Speaker 2 because of that fact.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 I'll say this,

Speaker 2 and I'm going to just, you know, we're opinion. So

Speaker 2 whatever we've been doing with the types of people that are non-business people that are political creatures their entire lives and have no business experience,

Speaker 2 would you rather there be a touch of reality and a businessman, you know, maybe using that influence to help others and himself?

Speaker 2 Or would you rather keep doing what we do, putting in lifelong politicians that make nothing happen, that talk in circles, that never align people in business and in government?

Speaker 2 So which one would you rather have? And so no trouble.

Speaker 2 Yeah. They didn't do this in the dark, right?

Speaker 2 Yeah, most of it's happening behind the dark.

Speaker 2 You know, Joe Biden is probably a billionaire himself or 100 millionaire. Right.
And I don't know. I don't have facts, but I'm just saying I'm not stupid.

Speaker 2 And I'm cynical. And, but, you know, but everything else that was claimed about his son and everything else has come out to be true.
So let's just go down that road.

Speaker 3 I'd rather have my president make his money off of a coin, a meme coin, than doing backdoor handshake deals with China, right?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 3 Giving advantages to our adversaries.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 So it is an interesting thing.

Speaker 2 He's he's enacted his ability to leverage his name, image, and likeness while in president. It's like the equivalent of a college athlete, you know, in school that now gets to take advantage.

Speaker 2 Yeah, they're seemingly paid, you know, with scholarship to go to school. But we all know they're making billions of dollars on their backs.

Speaker 2 So now they can take advantage of their name, image, and likeness while they're playing football. Then it's just

Speaker 2 Trump's NIL play.

Speaker 3 It's like when you sold red ties and Macy's under the Trump brand, it was like he's had his name on anything you can ever imagine. Just to.

Speaker 2 Oh, he's a great, I mean, one of the best marketers of all time. Absolutely.

Speaker 3 Like, talk about personal branding.

Speaker 2 He, oh, God, MAC. I mean, MAGA, you know, take away all the freaking, you know, tyranny bullshit and like all the, you know, white supremacy garbage of MAGA.
Right.

Speaker 2 Like, think of how much, what, what impact does MAGA had on the economy just on merchandise?

Speaker 2 Dude,

Speaker 2 a ton.

Speaker 2 That was something he how many Etsy, how many Etsy sellers would be underwater right now if MAGA hadn't launched?

Speaker 3 And he gave people that ability. He let people use his name and likeness to make money.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I don't think he's chasing down people selling MAGA stuff. He also understands brand.
That's what, you know,

Speaker 2 letting it spread.

Speaker 3 Hey, all press is good press, right?

Speaker 2 Yeah, exactly. So meme coins are out.

Speaker 2 Ethics concerns, very dangerous.

Speaker 3 Cap is $7.78 billion as of right now, FYI.

Speaker 2 Just

Speaker 2 is what?

Speaker 3 It's $7.78 billion right now, is the market cap.

Speaker 2 How's it doing? The coin itself?

Speaker 3 The coin right now is trading at $38.01.

Speaker 2 $38?

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's... What did it start at?

Speaker 2 Zero.

Speaker 2 I mean, but what was it like Monday? Put it this way.

Speaker 3 Okay, the last, it's went up 1,140% in the last week.

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 2 So it went from, as far as I can see,

Speaker 3 $7

Speaker 2 to $38.

Speaker 3 But I think there's a part of the chart I can't see where it was probably like 0.01 cents.

Speaker 3 But it definitely ripped inauguration day,

Speaker 3 you know, obviously dipped out. Now it's kind

Speaker 3 balancing out or between like the $35, $45 mark. So, but, and I heard people talking, is this going to crash? Someone made a good point.
If you look at Trump's stock, right?

Speaker 3 A lot of that stock is also built on his brand, not necessarily assets.

Speaker 2 So that's right.

Speaker 2 And you've almost all business now is speculation, you know, like speculative.

Speaker 2 Yeah, pays be known.

Speaker 2 Literally, literally, you know? Yeah. Trump's official quote.
My new official Trump meme is here. It's time to celebrate everything we stand for.
Winning.

Speaker 2 Oh, it reminds me a little bit of Charlie. Was it Charlie Sheen? Winning.

Speaker 2 Wasn't that his thing?

Speaker 2 I don't know if he won or not. Where is that guy?

Speaker 2 He must have stopped drinking.

Speaker 3 Yeah, he must have stopped to drink in the crack.

Speaker 2 Because he just isn't out there anymore. That or his health is bad.

Speaker 3 I hope he's doing well.

Speaker 2 I do too.

Speaker 2 Kind of miss his antics. I know.
So this is how the news works. This is why I'll probably move into like three days a week with the business news, giving you the business.

Speaker 2 The TikTok kind of came and went, the ban since we last, like we would have reported that TikTok is down,

Speaker 2 but we're now

Speaker 2 able to report it back up.

Speaker 2 That's how the news cycles work.

Speaker 3 You don't record every 18 hours when it was down and back up.

Speaker 2 Yeah. It's like almost like why I'm scared to talk about a headline because like the move, the news cycle is so fast.
You've got to talk deeper than one article because the shit's happened.

Speaker 2 Like, oh, okay, TikTok is down. Oh, my God, Chris.
What do you think about that? Well, now it's back up.

Speaker 3 We barely got attack reaction videos before it was back up again.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 3 And we got so many crying videos.

Speaker 2 And I still, what's funny is the Instagram algorithm will send you stuff that they think you're interested in, even if it's like a week or five days, you know, like it sends you old and new stuff.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I'm getting the, you know, all the guys that respond to everything where they play a video or the news behind them.

Speaker 2 I'm still getting the ones where, you know, they're talking about how TikTok's gone down. And like, I'm like, well, this is, this didn't age well.

Speaker 2 No,

Speaker 2 it was quick. It was quick.
And now back up.

Speaker 3 I was weird about it because they had CapCut down to the editing app. And that's like my bread and butter, baby.

Speaker 2 And I was like, oh, yeah. I can't have that CapCat go down.

Speaker 3 I know. I was kind of like,

Speaker 3 you know, I don't care about TikTok that much. You and I aren't really huge on TikTok.

Speaker 2 No,

Speaker 3 and then when CapCut got pulled, I was like, oh, no, I'm going to have to learn a whole new software. And that got brought up.
That launched again yesterday, too.

Speaker 3 I guess that's tied in with TikTok somehow.

Speaker 2 Yeah, Chinese owning all the stuff, getting all your data, Chris, All your, you know, you cutting all those videos together. What kind of videos are you cutting? Damn.
Chinese launchers.

Speaker 2 They got that evidence on you.

Speaker 3 My workout videos and my cooking promotion videos.

Speaker 2 Shit.

Speaker 3 They figured me out. They know how to get to this guy.

Speaker 2 Yep. They got to you.
But yeah, Trump re and I gave him like a 60-day. There's talk about it getting bought.
I saw,

Speaker 2 you know, several people making plays and

Speaker 2 saw Leary. Was it Kevin O'Leary or one of those one of the guys making a play, Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank.
Yep, yeah, Perplexity. Have you played with the Perplexity on your app? Like the browser?

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 2 It's a, I, you know, I've tried to use it. It's, it's interesting, but it's not taking over Google for me yet.
But supposedly, they were suggesting a merge.

Speaker 2 They got a lot of backing.

Speaker 2 Bezos, a lot of other big guys. But

Speaker 2 Kevin O'Leary reportedly offered 20 billion in cash

Speaker 2 for TikTok,

Speaker 2 but but but billion, I mean, the way billions just get thrown around now is like millions, like, you know, 15, 20 years ago. Yep.
And, you know, people use that words a lot.

Speaker 2 That's a lot of damn money.

Speaker 2 It's a lot of O's.

Speaker 2 Yep.

Speaker 2 I think they're going to end up having to sell this thing. I think, I don't think Trump's going to allow them to just status quo.

Speaker 2 I mean, I think he's giving them 60 more days and then he's going to do what Trump does and he's going to follow through and be like, all right.

Speaker 2 You're not. Because I think Byte Dance was holding out that maybe this would just go away.
Let's be honest. They don't want to sell it.

Speaker 3 We talked about it

Speaker 3 like probably seven months ago, you know? Yeah. And I know offline we had talked about even like TikTok shop.
Is that something you should be getting involved in?

Speaker 3 And even I kind of, a lot of guys I know in it were like, No, nothing's going to happen. And I think people really have been just kind of, oh, out of sight, out of mind.

Speaker 2 And then,

Speaker 3 boom, the rug pulled out from under them.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I think Byte Dance just thought, Oh, Biden's not going to do what he says he's going to do. And then Biden really have to because it so conveniently, you know, happens right when Trump comes in.

Speaker 2 So Trump goes, All right, you're on my watch now. You got 60 days.

Speaker 2 So I think they'll end up selling or at least partnering or doing something. I don't think Trump's going gonna let it stay status quo no yeah i mean and i don't think they should i mean

Speaker 2 nobody wants world war three

Speaker 2 and china and the us at odds but they they are an adversary on some level it just is what it is yeah

Speaker 2 and i'm not saying that the people are necessarily adversaries but the governments definitely are and the interests definitely don't align a lot at all

Speaker 2 so we'll see where that goes goes. So all you TikTok lovers, just

Speaker 3 don't start posting on Instagram.

Speaker 2 Yeah, move over to the adult platform.

Speaker 2 I guess. I don't know.
I just, it's more just I'm vested there. I'm on TikTok.
I got the blue check. It's great.
Thank you. Like, but it's like, you know, I just don't have time or the energy.

Speaker 2 You know, when the team gets a little, if I got one more person on the team, they would, TikTok would probably be on the list of like more than what we do now.

Speaker 2 Yeah, but until then, you know, you guys can find us.

Speaker 3 Yeah, definitely not going to spend a lot of energy in it until we find out what's going on with this.

Speaker 2 Bank of America says

Speaker 2 the banking industry will embrace crypto. Congratulations.
Way to wise up, buddy. And the Department of No Shit.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 You got the president, all his people. He's got a meme coin out, man.

Speaker 2 What are you going to do? Not support it?

Speaker 2 And I don't know.

Speaker 2 The banks,

Speaker 2 I posted, we talked about it last week. I got a little side eye with the banks right now.

Speaker 3 And I believe we mentioned last week that the banks would be announcing that they would become custodians for crypto.

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 2 We did. And here we are.

Speaker 2 They're realizing money's changing and they still want to get their clip yeah they want to get those record profits like they've been getting and hey how they're they're they're devising plans as we speak in the

Speaker 2 how do we take it out of the customer's ass department is they're meeting right now

Speaker 2 what's the acronym for that h2aca

Speaker 2 how to you know take more money out of America's pockets. How many fees can we get on crypto?

Speaker 2 You know, there's someone in the fees department concocting this right now. How many fees can we get on crypto and for what?

Speaker 2 Transaction fees, late trade fee,

Speaker 2 a Bitcoin risk awareness fee.

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 2 I know what you're up to, you dirty banks. At five bucks, you don't need a bank.
You can use your own wallet. Yeah.

Speaker 2 But at at a certain point for business,

Speaker 2 it's tough, like, to not have a U.S. bank.

Speaker 2 I'm not saying you can't. A lot of people get away with it.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 I think for things like getting a mortgage, right?

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 3 You still got to play that game

Speaker 2 for now.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 3 But it's going to be interesting to see this.

Speaker 2 It will be interesting. But

Speaker 2 I'm just glad the Mayhee Industries come along here. Always late to the game and early to the profits.

Speaker 3 Welcome to the party.

Speaker 2 They're too busy counting their money from fourth quarter, those record profits. What else is on your mind this week? You know, we've got

Speaker 2 it's just Disney. Like I'm saying, it's dizzy, dizzying

Speaker 2 Trump's enactment. Like, you got the AI task force.
You see this thing?

Speaker 2 So the big players on the stage coming out

Speaker 2 and

Speaker 2 basically 500 million billion another b commitment here for these

Speaker 2 data centers this is a big i think it's a bigger deal than it's maybe being made out to be like it i mean

Speaker 2 like to have this on our it doesn't sound sexy yeah but to have it on our soil which is what ultimately trump is up to here needs to be on our soil under our control not relying on others and it's not big because chris we can't help the free world and others if we're relying on others to help the broader world.

Speaker 2 It's a mouthful, but I think you know what I'm saying. It's like, so this stuff needs to be on our turf and under our control

Speaker 2 so that we can make sure it's used both for our interests and for our allies.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 I get it.

Speaker 2 I mean, everybody wants to talk about the cost, and I get that too. We'll see where that goes with overall costs and certain things, the tariffs, and all that.
I hear you.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 this is a big deal, especially with what's going on with AI and how important it's going to be, how it's going to dictate a lot of industry and things. So,

Speaker 2 got a hundred billion to start.

Speaker 3 We need to invest

Speaker 3 in America because outsourcing clearly doesn't work for us. We've lost our power, yeah,

Speaker 2 or lost a larger percentage than we should have. Yeah, Stargate project.

Speaker 2 This is a very large investment in the future,

Speaker 2 investment that affects all of humanity.

Speaker 2 Trump touts joint venture between SoftBank

Speaker 2 and Oracle worth 500 bill

Speaker 2 billions.

Speaker 2 The three tech CEOs have joined in President. Donald Trump's multi-billion dollar artificial intelligent infrastructure project

Speaker 2 defended the venture as an investment that impacts all of humanity.

Speaker 2 President Trump unveiled a massive AI infrastructure project from the private sector on the first full day of his second term in office.

Speaker 2 Trump announced that SoftBank, OpenAI, and Oracle had joined, created Stargate to build data centers in the U.S. for powering AI.

Speaker 2 I mean, that's what all this is, computing power, large data centers, lots of power, energy, and heat.

Speaker 2 You ever been in a data center or walked in a place where like all the computers are on, like the back back servers? It's hot. How much fucking heat that shit puts out? It's crazy.

Speaker 2 You want to get close to the sun. That's close to it.
You got fans going everywhere. This data,

Speaker 2 what it takes to power these things.

Speaker 2 They think mining crypto takes a lot. Damn.

Speaker 3 I was going to say, I've been in those, and those are loud and hot. Crypto mining operations, a lot of energy.

Speaker 2 It's so funny, the modern, the modern mining. You know, used to be down in the depths of a pit.
Now we're in in a sweaty, sweaty matrix.

Speaker 2 You know,

Speaker 2 the stories that come true, you know,

Speaker 2 the predictions that end up real.

Speaker 2 I just don't want to get plugged into like

Speaker 2 a matrix. I don't want to like wake up and be in like a big vat of nasty

Speaker 2 jelly, Nickelodeon plasma, whatever that shit is.

Speaker 2 I don't.

Speaker 2 I don't want my brain plugged into the data center.

Speaker 2 Fascinating.
