*Getting OpenClaw set up and running without destroying your bank account is one thing.

But now that you have your agent or swarm operational, how can you use them to get real work done?

We have three builders who are going to show you how to maximize your OpenClaw output!

GUESTS:

Jordy Coltman: Viral X author and creator of the WeeklyClaw newsletter

Jesse Leimgruber: Creator of the OpenHome.com smart speaker and kit

Tremaine Grant: Founder/CEO of Pulse

PLUS, on Off Duty, Lon and Jason talk “Knight of the 7 Kingdoms” and “The Pitt,” react to the “Mandalorian and Grogu” trailer, and check out some of Jason’s favorite headphones and earbuds.
