t. weathers Back to LA, I've got work.

[jane ridley]

JANIE …what?

[thompson weathers]

t. weathers I do work, y'know. Have an office and everything.

[jane ridley]

JANIE Gun to my head, couldn’t tell anyone what you do.

[thompson weathers]

t. weathers I work in the tech space.

[jane ridley]

JANIE Ah, nice and vague. I should say I’m a consultant.

[thompson weathers]

t. weathers I've got a board meeting next Monday, something about an acquisition. Idk I'm on like 4 boards, they blur together.

[jane ridley]

JANIE Don't you just vote nay or yay anyway? I feel like that's a board. Type an e-mail, cast a vote. Done.

[thompson weathers]

t. weathers Pretty much, I also sometimes go on Chat GPT and put in prompts like 'what would a businessman say if someone said XYZ' based on current conversations. Everyone's always very impressed by my input.

[jane ridley]

JANIE I'm sure it's very professional and long-winded. What's your favorite ice cream flavor?

[thompson weathers]

t. weathers After careful consideration of various options, I have determined that my preferred flavor of ice cream is pistachio. Its unique blend of rich, nutty flavors and creamy texture aligns well with my taste preferences. You?

[jane ridley]

JANIE Really does make someone sound eloquent. Butter pecan. Look at us old people. Or you're just following a trend.

[thompson weathers]

t. weathers That was all me?? Is that a trend? Maybe I set the trend, it's been my number one since I was like ten.

[jane ridley]

JANIE Sure! And yes - this is the year of pistachios and cottage cheese. They're getting the avocado treatment.

t. weathers Together, or??
