Hello, and welcome back to another episode of Sharp Tech. I'm Andrew Sharp, and on the other line, Ben Thompson. Ben, happy New Year. How you doing?
I mean, I'm struggling a bit to be totally honest since, you know, the first podcast back. We're starting, what, like
Twenty minutes late. Yeah. Yeah.
It it's just been a a real a real struggle. But, you know, whenever I think that things are are are difficult, I'm having a hard time working through it. All I have to think about is you. Yeah. It could be worse. And the fact that be worse. Your basketball team just acquired Trae Young. Congratulations. I have a happy Trae Young day.
Oh, man. I'm not gonna lie. I'm down pretty bad over all this. The wizards just traded for one of my least favorite players in the entire NBA. You were mocking me with AI Photoshops, photoshopping Trae Young and his thinning hair onto my head last night.
I know the problem was I did it the first time. I said, put the hair
in your ears from
this picture onto you. And I'm like, yeah. That that that is a full head of hair. That's not the
true young man enough. I Yes. That's what I have to look forward to over the next several years because god knows the wizards are going to give him an extension, and he's just going to be here in our nation's capital until the end of the decade. So, yeah, it's been a tough forty eight hours. I was not prepared for the possibility that the wizards were gonna trade for Trae Young. But here we are. I'm thrilled to be recording a tech podcast where I can escape all of that. I have to record greatest of all talk later tonight, but we could go for hours on Sharp Tech just for my own personal sanity.
