NVIDIA CEO’s Leadership Ends with a Bang! - WAN Show November 13, 2026

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

Have you ever wondered how movements start? I'm Ashley C. Ford, host of Into the Mix, a Ben and Jerry's podcast about joy and justice. This season, we're talking to unexpected progressive heroes who found purpose in unexpected places. People like Marley Diaz, making sure every kid sees themselves in books. Kyle Mesteth, a native skateboarder building a movement for kids nationwide. Joy Aladakun, whose music moves from protests to daily commute. Find out how they started something bigger than themselves and listen wherever you get your podcast.

In the immortal words of Timon Lesley Berkowitz, What's going on here? It finally happened.

The weekly events that broke The WAN Show format. How am I supposed to settle on just two of the major freaking industry changing events that happened this week? World changing events. The FAA just hours ago announced that they grounded all flights. And this was submitted for consideration for The WAN Show by our CEO, Mr. Taron Tong, who as far as I know, does not have any mistresses. So that's one thing that's better about us than Nvidia.

Dan Besser (1:10)

Yet, yet.

Linus Sebastian (1:12)

He says, FAA, quote, doesn't know yet what is going on, according to Sor- Are you kidding me? In another unrelated event, the FAA rolled out a major billion dollar AI tool yesterday.

Surely correlation is not causation, but here we are. The other major bombshell this week was, of course, that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was accused by, I believe the original source of this was the US government of having an alleged affair with an alleged Chinese spy. Now, the Chinese spy bit is still alleged. I don't believe that she has admitted to anything, but the affair bit was confirmed by the leather jacket wearing man himself. And since then, more alleged affairs have surfaced. So we'll be talking about, I don't know, what all this means for poor, innocent bystanders, like Creator Warehouse, who still has a couple hundred of these jackets to sell, thanks for nothing, Jensen. So we're discounting the Jensen jacket. We'll talk about that more later.

Luke Lafreniere (2:20)

Are you discounting it at 69 dollars?

Linus Sebastian (2:23)

No, but that's really funny. We don't know what positions he did it in, though.

Luke Lafreniere (2:27)

That's fair.

Linus Sebastian (2:28)

But he was probably wearing the jacket.

Luke Lafreniere (2:30)

He's probably a mission joyer.

Linus Sebastian (2:31)

That we know for sure. What else we got this week, Luke?

I couldn't pick two. There's so many good ones left.

Luke Lafreniere (2:37)

In gaming news, GTA 6, 30 FPS. Hope you enjoy it.

Linus Sebastian (2:42)

You picked that?

Taryn (2:44)

Yeah.

Linus Sebastian (2:45)

Seriously?

Taryn (2:46)

Yeah.

Luke Lafreniere (2:47)

The other one is also related to the FAA. The FAA is ditching floppy disks, and maybe this is just what they deserve for abandoning such a great piece of technology.

Linus Sebastian (2:56)

You're not gonna talk about the 365 outage? No. That stopped the world from working? You know what, it doesn't matter. The point is there's lots to talk about.

Luke Lafreniere (3:04)

Free day off.

Linus Sebastian (3:05)

And, oh wait, but wait, there's more. Black Friday specials are starting on LTT Store, so if you wanna get a com in, now's a great time to do it because the store is going to be busy. We've got a couple new launches and tons of deals running. Also, our TrueSpec cables will be going up in price in the new year, so the stock we have now, we're selling at the original launch price, but it is going to go up, so if you wanna stock up, now's a great time.

Luke Lafreniere (3:32)

Jeremy in full plain chat said Microsoft 364

Linus Sebastian (3:36)

Nice.

Oh, no, it can stay on now. It was supposed to go on while I was talking. It says fine. No, yeah, yeah, yeah. I meant my intro. Yeah, see, that's fine. Well, we were using keys. The show is brought to you today by Razer, along with Stream, Odd Pieces, and MotionGrey, of course, alongside our rap partner, Dbrand, our laptop partner, Dell, and our chair partner, also Razer. It's a double Razer sponsorship. Let's jump right into, I mean, it's gotta be the Nvidia news.

Luke Lafreniere (4:21)

Yeah.

Linus Sebastian (4:21)

The sources alone are an entire page of the doc. I noticed that, yeah. It's been-

Luke Lafreniere (4:27)

We'll see if it comes out that he had more affairs than we have sources.

Linus Sebastian (4:30)

It's been a wild up and down, and maybe back and forth. We don't know.

Luke Lafreniere (4:37)

Potentially other motions.
