This week the hosts are back, recharged after a trip to Thailand. They kick things off by recapping their first-ever female founders + investors dinner and share plans to host more events soon. Follow along on socials at @getthecheckpod to hear about the next event.The podcast dives into Meta Connect and the launch of Meta’s Ray-Ban Display and Neural Band. The glasses let you talk to Meta AI to find a coffee shop, get directions, and text a friend - all without picking up your phone. They also break down Meta’s choice to use a neural band instead of eye tracking, which enables gestures like swiping and could eventually be applied in other contexts, such as controlling a TV.The hosts then discuss Trump’s proposed $100K fee on H-1B visa holders, unpacking the back-and-forth around the policy. They explore who it impacts most and why Trump is pushing it. While big tech will likely absorb the cost or pivot to other visas, and hospitals may be exempt, early-stage startups will feel more pressure to hire domestically, since $100K can be a substantial part of their runway.Finally, they decide if Oura would “Get the Check.” With Oura allegedly raising $875 million at an $11B valuation, the hosts analyze the company’s distribution strategy, including partnerships with the DoD, Amex, and women’s health companies.00:00 Intro05:51 Meta Ray-Ban Display at Meta Connect29:34 Trump imposes $100K fee for H-1B visas50:15 Oura raises $875M Series E at $11B
