Clock out...permanently? This week on If By Whiskey, Mark and Jake are joined by William (@iam4iamWe on X) to raise a glass to the end of work as we know it and drink to whatever comes next.

We’re talking UHI (Universal High Income). The robots aren't just taking our jobs, they giving us...an allowance?! Is this the long-promised age of abundance, or the most comfortable soft-launch of a dystopia ever conceived?

Between laugh...

What do you get when you mix three guys, microphones, and just enough self-awareness to be dangerous? Probably cheaper than actual therapy — and way more entertaining.
