**Cold Open (Someone told Cody our podcast was bad... to his face)****Skip the Cold Open at 25:44**It's not looking good for the world's most widely used website builder. WordPress' founder, Matt Mullenweg, attacked WP Engine the other week and WP Engine sent Matt a cease and desist.If you're not in the website-building community or manage websites, that's okay -- we'll give you the backstory.Basically the #1 website builder is going after the #1 website host that hosts that website builder and the fallout is nuclear (pun intended).There are a couple of things we get wrong in this episode -- like Automattic doesn't own the WordPress Foundation (however, Matt does own both).Jake actually made a pretty detailed YouTube video covering everything.
