Today's number, 28,700. That's how many trades Trump made in the 17 months after his inauguration, more than all of Congress combined. True story, Ed, I was raised, as you know, as an only child. I drove my sister nuts.

How are you, Ed?

Ed Elson (1:48)

I'm doing very well. Here in New York, went to a wedding last weekend. Now this weekend, I've got an engagement party.

It just keeps coming, never ends.

Scott Galloway (2:00)

Any good destination weddings?

Ed Elson (2:03)

One in Greece next year. Actually, that's the engagement party that I've got this weekend, which is preceding the Greece wedding, which will be cool. I went to a wedding in Germany over the summer, which was fun.

Scott Galloway (2:15)

Any of these close friends? Are you in any weddings?

Ed Elson (2:18)

No, not in these weddings. These are friends, but not my best friends, but good friends. Yeah, still waiting to be in a wedding, still waiting to get the call up.

Were you in weddings?

Scott Galloway (2:29)

I was, yeah. I've given three best man speeches. I told you my best man speech, right?

Ed Elson (2:35)

This is the advice, I believe, to taking care of your wife, right? I think it's great advice, so why not share it?

Scott Galloway (2:42)

Don't keep score. Always express physical and sexual desire, and never let your spouse be cold or hungry. Pashminas and power bars all the time. And dual climate control. Upgrade, it's worth it. I look back, I'm not exaggerating, I look back on most of the major blowups so much, and I think they were either cold or hungry.

Ed Elson (2:59)

I think that's exactly right. How are you doing?

Scott Galloway (3:00)

How am I doing? I did the 92nd Street Y thing last night, with Jess Tarlov, which I didn't like, because everyone likes her much more than me.

They were like, in Scott Galloway, and everyone sort of rolls their eyes and plies the claps, and then they literally treat her like she's fucking Mick Jagger.

Ed Elson (3:19)

I mean, it's her book launch, I'm not that surprised.

SPEAKER_4 (3:22)

People love her.

Scott Galloway (3:24)

Oh my gosh.

But that was good, we were sold out. And then, yeah, thanks God, I'm in New York, I'm really excited to be here. I love it here. And yeah, just in the last seven days, I've been in LASF, Mexico City, London, LA, and then back to here. So I'm a little bit manic from traveling. But yeah, on the whole, everything's good. I feel really good about it. And your show's killing it. You keep getting good guests and huge video views. So as I said, if you keep working this hard, I will get my second Ferrari, which I'm super excited about. By the way, I don't own a car, just for those of you out there.

Ed Elson (4:03)

Eventually, you're gonna have to actually get the Ferrari. Eventually, we're gonna need to turn this bit into a reality.

Scott Galloway (4:08)

I can't get in and out of a Ferrari. It's too low for me.

Ed Elson (4:12)

It is very low.

Scott Galloway (4:13)

Yeah, I can't pull off a Ferrari. You need to be-

Ed Elson (4:15)

So what are we gonna do instead? Maybe like a Lamborghini Urus or maybe like a Brabus. I mean, you need like a massive vehicle, but it still needs to be a luxury sports car. That's sort of the line that you're straddling here.

Scott Galloway (4:29)

No, I go with the midlife crisis Range Rover.

Ed Elson (4:31)
