Nike reportedly earned $700 million in carbon credits by removing sulfur hexafluoride from its "Air" sneaker line. The gas is considered a potent greenhouse gas, thousands of times more powerful than carbon dioxide. The hosts describe this as a "boondoggle," where a company creates a problem and then receives financial rewards for solving it.

The release of the Nike Air Jordan Concord 11 shoes resulted in reports of pushing, shoving, and pepper-spraying at malls across the United States. The hosts suggest these "riots" may have been orchestrated or exaggerated as a PR move by Nike to create artificial demand and hype for the product.
