It's that time of year again, and no, I'm not talking about the holiday season or the post-Thanksgiving gym session.

Steven Johnson, the Head of Editorial at Google Labs (GOOG, GOOGL), joins Josh Lipton and Akiko Fujita to talk about the AI partnership with Spotify to build out an AI-generated podcast to accompany users' Wrapped experience, built with Google NotebookLM.
