6:01 pm
die. that's the mantra so many businesses out here. the tsunami of invention disruption reaches far beyond this intense city and the valley that abuts it. the storm clouds darkening the fortunes of others in the inevitable riptide of creative destruction. the reverberations rattle whole industries with a wake so brutal they often determine the direction of stock prices in whole segments on a day where the dow dropped 55 points, s&p lost .16 and the nasdaq decreased .24% let's just deal with the news. take the biggest stock news of the day, the possible combination between shop and td ameritrade with the former buying the latter in a $26 billion combination that would create what might be an unbeatable $5 trillion online colossus these two companies have been sworn opponents ever since electronic trading became the way of the future more than 25 years ago. they have been in a battle for
6:02 pm
assets come on, it's been incredible. and assets and commissions, the latter knowing no bounds with pervasive advertising, fancy trading platforms, and most of all, yes, the right price to trade. they could charge low commissions versus say the commissions i charged when i worked atgoldman sachs because of their scale they could literally make it up in volume. their stocks and e trade often mentioned in the same breath have tended to rise and fall with the gyrations of the stock market although over time, the waning interest by individuals, many of whom have been brainwashed into buying and holding a lot of suboptimal etfs has given you a secular decline in the business. still, problems have been solve. and after a battle they've been undergoing, they settled into kind of a profitable moment with schwab becoming the premier asset gathererer of our time besides being a commission
6:03 pm
juggernaut being a very profitable business and then along comes robin hood, a online startup charging no commissions for stock trading. why don't you just consider them a perk for giving them your assets you know what? nothing has ever been the same the company began a half dozen years ago and rapidly took off on the fingers of millennials who actually like stocks they like to buy and sell them how fast is it growing it's about the size of the much more famous e*trade, more than 4 million accounts more importantly, they are just the kind of clientious want, younger, active, enthused and not beaten down by wise men who tell them it's a fool's game to try and make money they try and they succeed. robin hood, that character who robs the rich to provide to the poor a mythical figure, a constant allegory, and perfect name for a company that robs from the commission charging overlords and gives to the generation that likes everything for free if it's online. no wall street outfit would ever think of robbing from the rich they are the rich.
6:04 pm
they like the status quo "robin hood" founded a stone's throw from the bureau if you had a herculean arm sought to destroy the status quo as so many companies out here sought to do. when you want to invent, you have a source of ready cash. venture capital money the tune of more than $860 million. ♪ hallelujah with that amount of money you can lose a fortune on commissions and make it up yes, you can do it asset volume as is so often the case, the incumbents didn't see it coming, or they ignored "robin hood. figured it had to go away, right? no commissions when i meet young people, i see them all the time in my travels. you know what they sing the praises of something i never heard of until it seeped into the young investors consciousness, robinhood. earlier this year robinhood reached a tipping point in asset gathering that the. >>s can like schwab and td ameritrade had to respond by abandoning commissions consequently, when that happened their stocks were crushed.
6:05 pm
now these companies have to try to combine to cut tech spending. it's so expensive to be a broker now. add spending, defend their tur photograph the highway robbers brimming with happy vcs who don't mind losing money as long as they can cash out in the end. cash out with high revenue growth in a stock offering not far down the road. its same thing with grubhub. the food delivery company that was the colossus $140 stock before it became clear that the vent commercial capital back door dash using revenue to scorch and burn public competition. the revenue growth that would have gone to grubhub, no longer the stock loses $100 with more than $2 billion in vc provided gas, including 535 million from softbank, the one pristine, now considered has been, door dash can and will mow down anyone. the debt tris of this unicorn? they include all sorts of companies that find themselves
6:06 pm
challenged by the cost of delivery versus typical customers. in some case, even the technologically savvy domino's has been hurt as door dash can mimic an entire door delivery system like the one domino's has. all this week we've been checking with institutions that use technology to increase their touch with customers, a more hidden disruptive force. we've managed to bob and weave around the 171,000 folks attending dreamforce, the extravaganza here's something we've come up the reason why tiffany's, another venerable institution may fall into the clutches of lvmh it's out here. i don't know if you've been following the saga, but lvmh, which is the world's largest luxury goods company doesn't do it all alone it uses salesforce to provide a seamless customer experience whether shopping in store or online across all of its brands which is the new omni channel way that you must have if you're going to a louis
6:07 pm
vuitton, marc benioff told me you might see a sales rep carrying a phone or ipad, powered by salesforce. it's connected to a single customer record to enable a personalized luxury experience now you also may have seen this little einstein doll on the set when i interviewed marc. that is a symbol for artificial intelligence, helping you figure out what gift you might want and we do need help when we go to stores or we go online. i bring this up because as a tiffany shopper, have i never, ever seen anything even remotely like that in its stores. while i like their goods, i always feel like it is the first time i have ever been to the store despite the thousands and thousands of dollars have i spent there. i might as well be a three-eyed alien when i'm in there. i think the lack of tech at tiffany's is so palpable that lvmh sees it as a gem to be polished i don't blame them the company's management probably salvaged, but what can happen with its salesforce-powered technology for customer relations management and that tiffany
6:08 pm
client list. so let's think about this. brokerage industry, retail industry, food delivery industry, well, what are we thinking here? perspective mergers, disruption, invention, and death the latter is what happens when you can't figure out how to use technology or won't spend the money. and when that occurs, let's just say the entrenched incumbents out there, they either learned it sooner or unfortunately later. let's take some calls. let's go to michael in texas, michael. >> hey, jim, good to talk to you. >> same. >> caller: my stock is bristol-myers, and they merged that celgene thing there i was wondering if you thought it was going to be a death rattle right away? >> i think it's going to be terrific the stock is up ten straight points and it is not done. they're going to take the merged companies and you're going start hearing raise numbers, raise numbers, raise numbers, raise
6:09 pm
numbers by bristol-myers invent, disrupt, die that's the mantra out here you got to invent, disrupt, or you will on "mad money" tonight, from cnbc one market, united was once the black sheep of the airline cohort but is it clear skies ahead pour the company? i've got the ceo then out in california we've got the time to take a moment to talk about the cannabis sector, which has been up in smoke. after all the stuff has been legal out here for a couple of years now. i'm breaking down the action in the group. and it's a stock up over 100% year to date. but is there still time to get into the stock of amd? i'm talking with the always bankable ceo so stay with cramer. >> don't miss a second of "mad money. follow @jimcramer on twitter have a question? tweet cramer, #madtweets send jim an email to madmoney@cnbc.com. or give us a call at 1-800-743-cnbc miss something he tmaon.cc.m.ado dmeynbco

this has been a tough year for the airlines most of the reason is beyond their control, the grounding of the 737 max, one of the most popular commercial planes on earth. but some airlines have held up a lot better than others take united airlines that's the largest of the major carri carriers stock up 8% year to date why? because united has made major investments in technology including customer relations management, office is from salesforce and as i've been telling you all week, that is a major differentiator but don't take it from me. let's check in with oscar munoz, the ceo of united airlines holdings, learn more about his efforts to turn united into a customer-friendly airline. mr. munoz, welcome back to "mad money." >> oscar, no one knows the pulse of america both for business and just for regular old travel than you do so tell me, are we close to recession as so many people tell me to worry about, or is it a pretty good time to be in the airline business >> listen, we started this conversation back in early of 2019 and i've never seen a wider gap between what is being discussed
6:14 pm
and trying to be pushed an the facts and figures that we see. so the answer is no. now we don't have as long a term of view of things, and we're always watching, obviously, because it's important to always be sort of cognizant of those potential trends, but we're not seeing it. >> i'm hearing from just people i know who like to travel. the holiday season already shaping up to be one of the best ever >> december is very strong we said that in our third quarter call so it's nice to be there we don't take it for granted we love all air customers and we're not taking you for granted. we're trying to improve your experience every day. >> if you have 14 737 masks, does that make it so you can't make as much money >> that's a difficult conversation we have to talk about that issue purely on a safety and security. >> okay. >> of course it has impact, but it has lots of different impacts on the industry, with overall capacity and so on and so forth. we're just waiting for the right folks to say it's okay to fly, and then we're going to implement our own process to make sure all our customers are comfortable when they book a
6:15 pm
flight to fly with us. >> have i faith in boeing. i will ride them because you would never put anything in the air if it weren't safe but will be people be asking is this one of those planes >> they will and again, this is the issue we have to be absolutely sort of look at it from that perspective. there will be people who are concerned. just because a regulator or a manufacturer or a person like united says it's safe doesn't mean you're going to believe any one of us. so we have to be very transparent. so when you book a flight with us and it involves a max, you will know. you will immediately know. if some reason if you miss that point, if you get closer to the flight, we will reaccommodate you, rebook you. we have to be that lenient and flexible with regards to insure everyone is comfortable. our employees the same way we have flight attendants and pilots that are also going to have to get comfortable and we'll do the appropriate things there. as i've said before, i'll be on the first plane, if that helps anyone i feel the same way.
6:16 pm
it's going to be a safe argt but again, it's not our view the regulators have to weigh in on that. >> okay. you're out here for dreamforce we're not seeing your usual confines >> i don't have a tie on. >> no, you don't >> i think united airlines is uniquely much more technological since you came, in and i also know if you're out here with marc benioff and salesforce, it means uniquely charitable and doing things for the community i am a big believer, and people on my staff know, in 2019 we pivoted. we can't just talk about earnings per share we have to talk about impact per share. and you're committed to impact per share? >> we are. that's one of the reasons we come out to this thing we talk about our constituents, clearly our customers of course, our investors, and then our employees are important. but the community we serve in so many ways. one of the missions i've received from my united family writ large is that in a world that's increasingly divided, we choose a world united. and they have given me a lot of
6:17 pm
clarity and vision about what areas in the community we can support, whether it's underrepresented youth in education, whether it's assistance with any kind of crisis, whether it's creating jobs and internships for people, whether it's just giving in a lot of different ways. we just had a food bank that their system went out, their cooler system. and they have $2 million worth of food for thanksgiving, and they need help they're in crisis. they call us nobody calls me. i hear after the fact because they know they have absolute clarity about our mission is to help others as much as possible. but back to the digital thing, that's a really cool story. >> right. >> we'll have to do a segment at some point in time our digital team has done an amazing job. of course it's digital technology, and it's all the great new things, but it really is meant 20 do two things. one, to make your life as a customer easier. but more importantly, it's also to make our employees' life easier in taking care of you and that's kind of an underpinning that no one really appreciates. our employees are beginning to you know what? they don't have the deal with all that sort of thing and that's the important part.
6:18 pm
and our team, we've created a new environment for them, and it's sort of a fast fail valley sort of lingo. but we have some great folks that we've been able to attract. chicago is becoming a better tech center. so we have some great people that do this i can't tell you the scores and scores of developments and applications that we have been able to roll up. >> a contrast, the previous administration to you. your company has historically underspent for technology. you were committed to that immediately. your company is known let's say not perfect noise labor relations. you committed to that perfectly. i don't hear any complaints from labor. they're they're doing it i just don't hear it i technologically, i think you've leapfrogged are these things you have to continually work on? just like you always have to spend more money on tech there is nothing you can do. >> listen, this is a world that you cannot stand still. >> why is that is it because of the other guy it's the tools that you see on salesforce
6:19 pm
>> there is a degree of catching up technology is moving at such an incredible pace, and you as a customer begin to experience that in a lot of different products that you buy. and you expect that out of legacy companies like ourselves. so we have to move in that way it's a world that's disruptive, and the best way to avoid disruption is be disruptive yourself and get ahead of it it's a little more difficult future a company of our size and scale, but we've been able to really move fast on some issues. i always talk about our technology in two ways there is the really kind of r&d futuristic sort of thing that's important. but what is more important to me is the technology that helps you today. i don't need to talk to you about something we're going build in five years. it's something you actually experience our app is a perfect example of, that right it's meant to be very intuitive to give you all the information you need and we can talk to you in a different way, and we've changed the tone of how we talk as well. we try to be a little more lighthearted. >> you are. >> if you're going to be delayed, it's never great. but again, it's an attempt to be
6:20 pm
more human >> i also want people to know on time since you got, what were your on time numbers when you came in and where are they now >> they're significantly better. just, again, at the end of the day, all these other things that we discussed, if we can't get you safely and reliably on time to the places you want the go on a very, very consistent basis, that's entry into the game you have to be able the do that. and that is done by the way with 96,000 people out there every day really caring about the fact that their mission is to take you to the place that matters most to you. and i give them a lot of credit. it is not an easy job moving around at all, weather and all the different things that we face and it's an important sort of development, the human aspect of it >> i'm glad you brought that up. we don't talk about that enough candidly that's our job to do we should bring it up more when i listen to you, i feel the united states and the global economy, you're not just domestic. >> no. >> global economy is good. >> there is pockets. there is always pockets. well is a broad portfolio. we have one of the biggest if
6:21 pm
not the biggest global footprint out there. so most of the pockets are okay. hong kong has been an issue for obvious reasons. >> sure. >> but asia writ large has been okay so across the board we still see continued strength >> i see a stock that's too cheap, only up 10% for the year. should it be higher. that's oscar munoz, the ceo of united airlines. i got to tell you, the journey that this airline has taken, this man has taken charge. he is really rather amazing. "mad money" is back after a minute robinhood believes now is the time to do money.

doprevagen is the number oneild mempharmacist-recommendeding? memory support brand. you can find it in the vitamin aisle in stores everywhere. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. ♪ . the cannabis stocks were battling like crazy today. >> booins buy, buy, buy. >> after a brutal sell-off. >> sell, sell, sell. >> that intensified over the past couple of weeks
6:24 pm
truly horrific earnings reports. but before you take action, we've got some encouraging signs. i know you're looking at them. i got to make one thing perfectly clear. the marijuana industry is just not what it cracked up to be, and that rally may be a rare bout of strength i used to believe it represented an incredible opportunity, but i got to admit, i may not be correct. while we're out here in california, a state that has been a real pioneer when it comes to saner drug laws, i'm going hold a bit of a funeral dirge for the cannabis industry. i know the stocks are bouncing, but at least open our eyes to what's happening here. pot is simply a much smaller opportunity that many people believes, even six months ago when it was supposed to be the disrupter of all time. as the canadian players ramp up production, the price of legal weed has plummeted i thought supply was overwhelming demand, and to some
6:25 pm
extent that's true but they're still moving more volume than anyone expected. people are just paying a lot less for it. and that isn't what was supposed to be in the cards cannabis only looks like a great opportunity when it's illegal. people pay a huge premium for black market goods but once the government starts handing out licenses to grow the stuff, it's just a plant i've been assured there are real differences in quality between different strains. when weed is legal, pretty much anyone can grow the stuff in their basement with the right equipment. so i worry that maybe the equilibrium price for cannabis is much lower than we thought it would be and that's a major change. consider the numbers from the big canadian players cro cronos group reported a week and a half ago and the results were ugly cronos only delivered a modest revenue miss, a much, much larger. >> issue the big issue was pricing. volume is very strong with the company selling almost twice as many as the previous quarter and boy did they ever trump at that.
6:26 pm
but the average price for dried flower drop from $6.19 to get this, $3.55. that's a 42% decline in pricing in just three months cannabis oil held up fine. but that segment has come under fire because of the mysterious vaping deaths caused by adulterated black market adult oils that has cast a shroud on the entire industry. as a result, cronos market has been obliterated i don't know how they're going to turn things around any time soon if you own the stock. later that same day, tilray reported you know i hope to like these guys, and the same dynamic lots of lower quality bulk sales, pricing down nearly 50% versus the previous quarter. the own reason it didn't get crushed is it had already been obliterated over the past 12 months another couple of pairs of disappointments, canopy and aurora canopy used to be my favorite pot stock, as you know but the narrative started falling apart over the summer. despite a management change, they haven't been able to turn things around yet. still waiting for the big ceo
6:27 pm
announcement this time the company took a hit on pricing but management tried to dismiss the weaknesses as a one-time hit as they try to align inventory level. sounds like macy's already was already bracing. these numbers were so bad that the stock plummeted from 18 to 15 in a day. and wreck the stock came from. it's working its way back a tad. i will explain about that in a moment how about aurora cannabis, one of your faves? i know you have called in endlessly. same problems. decline in recreational sales with total revenue down 25% because there is too much inventory in canada. some people say there is a 100-year supply. i kid you not. the biggest positive, aurora is backing off previously announced plans to expand production capacity thank heavens. that's good news but that's not the kind of story you want to tell if you're in a growth business. the canadian mark is flooded with cannabis. for the most part, the major growers haven't changed their plans. they still want the keep growing production, like the oil producers in permean
6:28 pm
who knows? maybe somebody will buy it they want to keep rolling out more, and i want to say to be diplomatic, lunacy another major letdown last week, but since then they have been roaring, which is why i've been reluctant to say get out can't canopy up 15% today. cronos up 11%. what happened to breathe new life in this group, and should you be suckered in what verb is that? you probably think where i'm thinking first, some u.s. operators are listed in canada reported decent numbers. second, everybody is focused on impeachment. sorry. the house judiciary committee just approved a bill to decriminalize marijuana. yippee decriminalize. go by some not so fast. third, yesterday morning, bank of america, merrill lynch upgraded canopy growth to a buy, arguing that the bad news is now baked into the stock and the newly lowered estimates are finally beatable could be fourth, i think all these positives set off a huge short squeeze that has given the stock
6:29 pm
extra bounce the short squeeze may have some legs, but it's a short squeeze i think you have to use the strength to lighten up the pot stocks the problems in the canadian market are struck chushl the level of oversupply in the canadian market is astounding. the price drops are amazing. yet other than aurora, nobody is reducing capacity, even though there is already years worth of supply the scary thing about this is the cannabis opportunity, maybe it is smaller than we thought. i remember one thing i thought it could disrupt entire food and beverage industries, but it hasn't been able the take off because of the law and by the way, it turns out there are only so many people who want to smoke large quantities of weed there are also issues of driving. we have to view this like any other commodity. marijuana is still illegal in the united states. that's what's killing it here. everyone is scared one random arrest. it's encouraging to see that some industries like green thumb
6:30 pm
industries are turning a profit in the states where it's legal but cannabis is the test case for what happens when you legalize cannabis nationwide and that experiment let's just say -- let's not call it encouraging. the bottom line, the cannabis industry has to be rational and rationalized it's neither companies need to close. funding needs to dry up. mergers must occur until then, these stocks are the casualty of market not yet ready for primetime, or any time for that matter. hey, much more "mad money" ahead. i'm going to talk to lisa su to talk about money she is just incredibly good, and we have weakness in the stock. maybe it's a buying opportunity. even if you think trump is bad or goodor this or that, i' going to tell you why his tour of apple is only a good thing. jobs good. and all your calls rapid-fire in tonight's edition of the "lightning round." so stay with cramer.

6:36 pm
and of course goes right to 40 because it with australia good quarter there have been 14 dips similar, 14 dips that you came in all offered opportunities since we're seeing you at all-time highs. but one of the things i don't think people understand is the product. and we're going take a travel on it you're going to take me around italy, tell me what you have. >> all right, cool the thing about semiconductors and chip, and you know this really well is we have to make bets three to five years in advance to really decide hey, where is the world going and so when you look at data centers, whether you're talking about the biggest data centers at google or microsoft or amazon build, we want to be the guts inside that because everybody needs more computing horsepower. >> so you create a rome. you create a naples. you create a milan. >> you know my product names. >> that's why i'm doing the travel on. i think it's important in order for people to buy the 14th, 15th and 16th, they have to know that rome wasn't built in a day but is loved by
6:37 pm
microsoft. that azure loves naples. that amazon web services loves naples these things matter. otherwise people say it's momentum and there is nothing there. these are just revolutionary for not just amd but for anybody. >> we've made some really good decisions. our road maps. so now i have to talk about our city. >> thank you. >> it does go naples, rome, milan. we're right now in the middle of our rome launch. it's our second generation data center chip. and what it really allows us to do is just do a lot more computing with less power and less cost. and so when we think about --. that is the holy grail. >> absolutely. >> people have to understand that it doesn't run hotter. it's cheaper and powerful. >> that's right. it's all about total cost of ownership in these systems the nice thing about it is it applies to big and small things, jim. high performance computing we won the world's biggest
6:38 pm
installation that we're going have with frontier at oakridge national labs. that's a huge super computer these are things you can use in your back office as well we're really excited about the data center market >> i think there are people who think the market may not be strong cpu and gpu head said used the word tremendous demand this week that doesn't sound like anything that is in cyclical decline. >> we have -- this week is an important week in computing. >> right. >> it was the super computing conference, and we had a nice showing there. it is one of those areas where i think you're going to see basically secular growth in computing demands, and you're going to do it in different ways you're going to do it with some cpus, some gpus, some specialty chips as well. and the key we want amd to be at the center of that and really, we view it as helping our customers unlock what they're trying to do. >> and these are the big ones,
6:39 pm
though it's microsoft, azure and amazon these are the most marquee accounts that you could have. >> absolutely. what we like to do is we like to develop our road maps with these really top customers five years out. >> those are partnerships. >> these are partnerships. >> make it and they will come. >> that's right. how do we change the world together that's what we're trying for. >> i mention it because the notion of stickinesstickiness, e never thrown anyone under the bus. you never said a bad word about anybody. we know intel put out a note yesterday saying supply is still constrained. does it mean for amd hypothetically, if a large competitor is supply constrained, that has to be good for anyone who has supply. >> so let's talk a little bit about the market, and then i'll come back to this. the market -- >> you're allowed to say the word intel. >> i am? i'll think about it. the market for pcs is actually a really good market it's one of these markets.
6:40 pm

i'm asking for a favor can we please try to take political commentary out of the business section there are some issues like the trade war where you can't afford to ignore washington, but if you're looking at the stock market through just the political lens, you're going to get it wrong what is the bogus controversy over that apple event yesterday where president trump toured a mac pro manufacturing plant in boston with ceo tim cook. so many commentators who despise the president are ringing their hands, accusing cook of participating in a political ad for trump's reelection campaign. are you kidding me love him or hate him, trump is the president of the united states touring a factory in, anywhere is the kind of thing any president would do obama, both bushes, clinton loves it when companies create jobs in their country. apple spent min hundreds of millions of dollars to expand their manufacturing capability here in the u.s.
6:54 pm
that's a good thing, regardless who is sitting in the oval office the president may not have been crystal clear when he talked about apple opening a new facility they were touring a mc pro plant that belongs to flex, but apple just broke ground on a new office campus in austin yesterday. the point stands they're making some incredibly high-powered computers here in america, and they're also creating lots of new jobs. does it help president trump's reelection prospects when big business create jobs sure a strong labor market helps the incumbent. but who the heck cares here when tim -- what's tim cook supposed to do? only hire people when the democrats are in power well, that's absurd. should cook have turned down an innocuous request from the president of the united states even under ordinary circumstances, that would be nuts, and these aren't ordinary circumstances. we're in the middle of a trade war with china that could seriously damage apple's bottom line unless tim cook can get tariff exemptions from the white house. even if you loathe trump as much as some of the commentators do,

it's his job to make nice with world leaders like president trump or president xi for that matter when the ceo of the largest company in the world does a good thing and the most powerful man in the world wants to praise him for it, you know what i call it? i call it normal it's certainly not something to gripe about. we've seen the same dynamic in the coverage of the trade war with china too so many talking heads act like the chinese government is the aggrieved party and they're gleeful any time china gets some leverage because that might hurt the president in the polls next year, and that is -- that's the leitmotiv. but china's unfair trade practice has devastated american manufacturing. the people's republic really is a bad actor, and more and more american executives are coming around to the view that something needs to change. you know what? listen to gary friedman, the ceo of rh, which makes tons of furniture in china but is moving the production elsewhere as fast as they can. he has been emboldened to tell the truth even if, yes, it
6:56 pm
coincide was the president's views. >> there is a major trade imbalance. it's important to correct that trade imbalance. we're funding china's growth and so we don't look at it -- look, there is always episodic things like this you have to deal with. we're taking the appropriate steps whether it's sourcing some of our product outside of china. i think it's going to all work out. >> last up, we got another leak from the chinese that they're cautiously optimistic about the trade talks, and too many reporters take these leaks from china as some sort of gospel china, the prc, i mean, come on. i think the story is way off base the white house wants the chinese communist party to make major changes in the way it does business until we get a serious show of good faith, not just a soybean buy, i doubt the negotiations will go anywhere buying a massive amount of soy or corn or any other ag thing, maybe it gets something started,
6:57 pm
but it's not going get you the finish line. the truth is america is winning the trade war. hate him or like him, we're winning. our manufacturers are making a comeback our labor market is on fire. as companies like apple are creating tons of new jobs here when you look at this stuff through the prism of the economy, it's just plain good. when you try to analyze it through the prism of the politicianious like or dislike, you're missing the whole point and until you admit and own your own bias, you're going to continue to do so. stick with cramer. sundown vitamins are all non-gmo, made with naturally sourced colors and flavors and are gluten & dairy free. they're all clean. all the time. even if sometimes we're not. sundown vitamins. all clean. all the time.
