👋HEY ALL!
What. A. Week. From teenagers falling head-over-heels for AI chatbots to dating apps facing a lot of trouble, the tech world hasn't disappointed in the drama department. Meanwhile, Morari just scored that coveted FDA clearance for MOR.
And then Sunday happened. Picture this: me, coffee in hand, scrolling through social media, when suddenly—🤯!—I discover Bill Maher has dropped my name and gives Future of Sex podcast a shoutout on primetime US television!
After all that excitement, I'm mentally ready to declare an impromptu three-day weekend while at the same time go into 10000x mode of getting it all done! So here we are. Our Future of Sex Season 3 podcast trailer drops tomorrow and I couldn't be more excited.
The anticipation is literally months in the making...and you can tell it's months because we have been deep in edits today and I'm looking back at my old hair style and color (it was a phase).
