On this week’s TLO Headlines, Aaron and Matt unpack Astronomer’s bold PR pivot—hiring Ryan Reynolds’ ad agency (with Gwyneth Paltrow starring) to reframe the Coldplay kiss‑cam scandal—and what that reveals about confronting workplace crises head‑on. They also break down Silicon Valley AI startups adopting 996 work schedules, explore how AI is decimating entry‑level jobs for grads, and discuss record‑high 401(k) hardship withdrawals as CEOs increasingly brag about workforce cuts in the name of AI efficiency.
