And Skydance is formed.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's official as of today.

This is also going to be our leading story, but instead of giving you a cutesy opening, WB and Paramount have officially merged.

Skydance is official.

So I guess we're wearing, I don't know, prison jumpsuits.

Sackcloth and ashes.

We are biblical characters in mourning.

No, it's bad, and we knew it was going to be bad, and we're worried about it.

We're worried about the consolidation.

Did any new news come out with the announcement today? I know they're going to go on Wall Street and start trading next week.

That was kind of known, kind of out there already, though, right? The

only stuff I've seen is some monetary stuff having to do with Oracle.

And because Oracle is basically the insurity of a lot of this debt that Skydance now is taking on.

So I know between Oracle and Skydance themselves, because of this new merger, Skydance is taking on $80 billion of debt.

Oracle has now taken like just doubled their debt or something like that recently.

So between the two of them, there's like a quarter trillion dollars of debt between those two companies.

Hmm.

Doesn't sound the greatest to me, but I also am not a financier.

So they got to make some money

is what you're saying.

Yeah.

They got to have some success.
