Happy Monday!
</strong>
Picture this: You work in tech, it’s the end of a long day, your brain is fried from replying to emails, and all you want to do is actually
<em>
learn
</em>
something about the industry you work in.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
That’s what the podcast
<em>
Tech Brew Ride Home
</em>
is for. Simply pop it on your car stereo or AirPods, and in 15–20 minutes, you’ll hear the tech headlines professionals need to stay ahead. You’ll be in good hands: The pod is hosted by author, founder, and veteran tech chronicler Brian McCullough, who’s been covering the digital revolution since the dot-com boom.
</p>

To paraphrase a line from the original
<em>
Naked Gun
</em>
movie, it’s 4th and 15 for big-screen comedies, and they’re looking at a full-court press.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
In 2024, Hollywood studios released exactly
<a class="link" style="color:#333;border-bottom:2px solid #1c7ff2;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">
zero live-action comedies
</a>
to theaters. This year, there have only been two:
<em>
One of Them Days
</em>
, which was released in January, and Liam Neeson’s
<em>
The Naked Gun
</em>
reboot, which hit theaters this past weekend.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
That’s a big drop-off from 2015, when studios were averaging a comedy every few weeks.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
<strong style="color:#000">
So, what happened?
</strong>
There are a few theories:
</p>
<ul style="margin-top:0;padding-left:30px">
<li style="margin-bottom:10px;line-height:22px">
<span>
Studios got scared away from the genre after a string of comedies disappointed at the box office between 2016 and 2019.
</span>
</li>
<li style="margin-bottom:10px;line-height:22px">
<span>
There are fewer bankable names in comedy, and the ones who remain are making content for streamers, like Adam Sandler.

Trying to flip the script
</h2>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
The new
<em>
Naked Gun
</em>
movie cost about $42 million to make, plus millions more to market. That’s pretty modest compared to a superhero movie. If the comedy succeeds, it might encourage studios to pursue a good return on the relatively cheaper genre.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
But recouping costs is complicated by the fact that comedies typically struggle to make money overseas. It turns out, puns and pop culture references don’t land the same in every language (note to self).
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
<strong style="color:#000">
Naked and unafraid:

There are some early positive signs.
<em>
The Naked Gun

made an estimated $17 million in its opening weekend and has solid reviews. Studio execs expect to easily make their

, according to the New York Times.

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
Disney’s

Reactions to Trump’s firing of labor statistics chief rolled in all weekend.

The president

dismissed Erika McEntarfer

, the commissioner of labor statistics, on Friday, following the release of a weak jobs report for July and major downward revisions to the numbers of jobs created in May and June. Republican Sen. Rand Paul told NBC News, “When the people providing the statistics are fired, it makes it much harder to make judgments that, you know, the statistics won’t be politicized.” On Sunday, White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett defended Trump’s move on

, saying of data coming out of the agency, “There have been a bunch of patterns that could make people wonder.” Popular data guy Nate Silver explained the extensive history of Bureau of Labor Statistics revisions in his newsletter, Silver Bulletin, and concluded that the revised figures were likely

Over 3,200 Boeing fighter jet workers went on strike.

For the first time since 1996, members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers working in St. Louis and Illinois
<a class="link" style="color:#333;border-bottom:2px solid #1c7ff2;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">

</a>
after rejecting a second contract offer from Boeing on Sunday. They are responsible for assembling the F-15 and the F/A-18 defense aircraft, as well as building missiles. Boeing VP Dan Gillian said the company is “prepared for a strike and have fully implemented our contingency plan to ensure our non-striking workforce can continue supporting our customers.” Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said on the company’s Q2 earnings call last week that he was not overly concerned about the impending strike, given that it was much smaller than the one that occurred last fall, when about 30,000 machinists in Washington state went on strike, impacting the production of 737 and 777 commercial jets.

Texas Democrats left their state to break a GOP quorum on redistricting.

The TX House Democratic Caucus Chair, Gene Wu, said that he believed 57 of 62 members of the caucus left the state to
<a class="link" style="color:#333;border-bottom:2px solid #1c7ff2;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">
defy a special session
</a>
at the statehouse called by Gov. Greg Abbott, effectively blocking a vote on a plan to redraw the state’s US House map to attempt to flip five Democratic seats in the 2026 midterm elections. Most of the 57 went to Illinois at the invitation of Gov. JB Pritzker, a Democrat, but some went to Boston and Albany, NY. They risk incurring a $500-a-day fine while being absent from work, and Abbott has threatened their removal from office. While their absence can’t stop the passage of the bill, the Democrats are hoping to “run out the clock” on the special 30-day session, according to ABC News. On Steve Bannon’s

podcast, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said of the lawmakers, “As long as the governor is willing to keep calling sessions, ultimately they have to come home.”—

There is so much red and green getting slung between ESPN and the NFL that you’d think they got into a food fight with Christmas-style enchiladas. That’s according to the Athletic, which reported on Friday that the Disney-owned sports media conglomerate is getting control of
<em>
NFL RedZone
</em>
, as well as the NFL Network and more, in exchange for
<a class="link" style="color:#333;border-bottom:2px solid #1c7ff2;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">
up to 10% of ESPN equity
</a>
, worth billions of dollars.
</p>
<h2 style="color:#000;margin:0 0 15px;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:19px;font-weight:700">
What gives?
</h2>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
The NFL hasn’t been able to convert on its media properties. Last May, several key NFL Network on-air personalities were laid off, and it canceled its flagship show,
<em>
NFL Total Access
</em>
, after over 20 years.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
ESPN wants to bolster the must-have status of its forthcoming streaming service, to be called…ESPN. It would get broadcast rights to seven more regular-season games in the deal, as well as the NFL’s fantasy football business and the potential for more platform integrations, like betting.
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
<strong style="color:#000">
Zoom out:
</strong>
An unnamed source told Front Office Sports that the “massive” deal would require “government oversight and approval. And we all know how Trump likes to poke the NFL from time to time.” ESPN and the NFL declined the Athletic’s and FOS’s requests for comment. Disney’s earnings call on Wednesday may feature an official announcement.—

Get your lunch packed up and your boots tied tight. It’s time to go back to school, or start shopping for supplies at least, depending on where you live. According to the National Retail Federation, parents expect to spend an

Even in contemporary terms, AI recruits for the biggest tech companies have few peers when it comes to paychecks. The closest may be sports stars. In 2021, NBA legend Steph Curry finalized a four-year, $215 million contract extension. How did we get here? The likes of Meta, Microsoft, and Alphabet have huge market caps—and, as the
