1
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: Did you hear this?

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: It is time for the best audio of the day.

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: And you know who's back, The CEO of McDonald's. He's

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: back and he's eating on camera again. He had a

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: interview with the Wall Street Journal to discuss his viral moment,

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: and this was when he was taste testing the McDonald's

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: Big Arch and for the interview with the Wall Street Journal,

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: because nothing says fun like the Wall Street Journal, they

9
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: went down into the McDonald's test kitchen and this time

10
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 1: he was eating nuggies. You got any advice for somebody

11
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: to have to eat on camera.

12
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: Well, I'd say the biggest thing is just dive right in.

13
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 3: So I'm looking forward to taking a nice bite out

14
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,599
Speaker 3: this chicken nugget.

15
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 2: It's a little weird to walk to each other eat. Yeah,

16
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,480
Speaker 2: well imagine how I felt.

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: So you had competitors like Burger King and Wendy's responding

18
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: to his Big Arch video where he called it a

19
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,319
Speaker 1: product and he took a tiny, little awkward bite out

20
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: of it, and he got mocked by many people online.

21
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 1: It's happening again because a lot of people are saying

22
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 1: he looked disgusted when he bit into the nuggie.

23
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, this is the return that nobody asked for.

24
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 3: I mean all of this started because he did this

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 3: awkward video of him tasting the big Arch several weeks ago,

26
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 3: and it went viral because it looked so goofy and red.

27
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 3: I mean, it went about as well as a CEO

28
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 3: of a major company creating social media content you'd think

29
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 3: would look. And then so to kind of make fun

30
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: of him a little bit. Yeah, the Burger King ceo

31
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 3: and the Wendy c all these other ceo of fast

32
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 3: food joints trying their their hamburgers and putting out videos

33
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 3: on this Why McDonald's thought it was a good idea

34
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 3: to send him out again after the first one was

35
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: such a disaster, and now to try chicken nuggets. This

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 3: makes absolutely no sense to me. I don't know why

37
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 3: this guy keeps going in front of the camera. Just

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 3: sit in your office with your spreadsheets and your boardroom

39
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: and PowerPoint presentations and do that. Quit putting yourself out

40
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: there on social media.

41
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 2: He was sitting down for.

42
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: An interview with The Wall Street Journal, and the main

43
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: point of it was like, you know, hey, how did

44
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: you feel about going viral? He said he found out

45
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: from his children. They were the ones who told him,

46
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: and he said, you think you gotta have thick skin

47
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 1: when it comes to social media, and that he liked

48
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: it at the end because he knew people were just

49
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: having fun. And that's what McDonald's projects is a fun environment.

50
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: And like I mentioned, nothing sounds fun like sitting down

51
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: with a Wall Street Journal.

52
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: There's a big difference between having fun and people making

53
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 3: fun of you.

54
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: And that's what happened Jason.

55
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what happened on his first video was it

56
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 3: was people making fun of him. I don't know how

57
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 3: much fun it was. It was not fun for any

58
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 3: of us. It was awkward to watch you do it, dude.

59
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: He claims that the attention still boosted the visibility of

60
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: the big Archberg and reflects how brands must engage in

61
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: the modern creator economy. Now, what time does McDonald's start

62
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: serving nuggies?

63
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 2: It varies on location.

64
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 3: Some places it's ten thirty, some places it's eleven o'clock,

65
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 3: So it depends on each lovel When we.

66
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: Were in Washington, DC over the week, and my brother

67
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: was adamant that he was going to get a twenty

68
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: piece chicken McNugget and his wife was saying they're not

69
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: serving yet pulled up into the drive through. She was correct,

70
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: they weren't serving McNuggets.

71
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 2: Yet because it was nine thirty in the morning.

72
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 3: Actually worked out because that's one of the areas that

73
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: McDonald's does a great job.

74
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: McDonald's breakfast pretty darn good. I mean pretty darn good.

75
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: You get it, stell in the uh cokes, the soda fountain,

76
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: you know, the drinks, the French fries, and the breakfast.

77
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's I mean, that's the big selling point for McDonald's.

78
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 3: The fries, I mean, come on, show me a better

79
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 3: French fry than the McDonald's French fries.

80
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 2: They're the best. They're soft drinks.

81
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 3: We have all heard the stories about how they have

82
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: their special delivery system inside the mechanics that keeps there,

83
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 3: you know, coke and diet coke and coke zero tasting

84
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 3: better than anybody else.

85
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 2: And then their breakfasts are pretty good.

86
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: It's the uh, it's the part that he keeps highlighting

87
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 3: that people aren't as enamored with at McDonald At McDonald's.

88
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: You don't think he came across as authentic.

89
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 3: No, he doesn't come across at all. A CEO authentic,

90
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 3: and the worst part was then you had the Burger

91
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 3: Kings CEO do his counter video, and he was actually

92
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 3: a likable guy. He seemed to like to be a

93
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 3: real likable guy. The CEO of Burger King in direct

94
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 3: contrast to the CEO of McDonald's
