Shaan predicts a blue-collar bailout

Two days before recording, Shaan tweeted that the government would have to do a 'blue-collar bailout' for hourly workers in casinos, cruise ships, and stadiums who can't withstand a month or two out of work. He notes Trump's team that day floated an Andrew-Yang-style $1,000 stipend.

So I tweeted this two days ago. I said, I think we're going to need a blue-collar bailout, which is a lot of people who go to jobs, retail jobs. They work in these casinos, they work on these cruise ships, they work in the stadiums, whatever. They're not going to be able to withstand being out of work for a month or two months or whatever. And that's going to really hurt the economy because it's a huge percentage of the citizens in the country.

Story

Shaan ignored Andrew Yang's emails twice before he ran for president

Shaan recounts getting a 2015 email from an unmemorable 'typical Asian name' pitching a HustleCon talk, ignoring it, then a 2017/18 follow-up asking him to review a book and interview the sender, who was running for president. It was Andrew Yang; Shaan didn't reply.

He emailed me again in 2017 or '18, and he goes, I'm running for president. And this is Andrew Yang, it's Andrew Yang who it is. I'm running for president. "Do you wanna interview me and read, would you please review my book and talk about it on The Hustle?" I didn't reply. I forgot all about it.
