YouTube Music is testing its answer to Spotify AI DJ– and early users can’t decide it they love it or hate it

For the Sacramento Speaker Series, you usually have to buy a subscription to the whole series.

But last night, it looks like they started selling tickets specifically for Pete Buttigieg's talk on October 22nd.
