1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI A M six forty on demand.

2
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 2: Brisina joining the program, Resina, nice to see it as always,

3
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: You're thank you dynamite here. Yeah, you want to talk

4
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 2: about some Hollywood celebrity.

5
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 3: Crop do I want to? Okay, well, I know about it.

6
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 2: It's perfect, let's do it. There's no business like show business.

7
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. That sounded just like you're recording is

8
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 2: really Yeah.

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 3: I think the live is usually better than the recording.

10
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 2: Bad too, but that one was pretty Oh okay, that

11
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 2: was close. All right, that was good, all right, cool,

12
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 2: all right. Looks like Warner Brothers is really trying to

13
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 2: market themselves and get as much as possible as they

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: get out of the business of business.

15
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 4: Do you feel like there's momentum here.

16
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 2: That, oh, this is from I think Bloomberg TV. Yeah,

17
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: Bloomberg TV, and it's the The anchor is talking with

18
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: the uh Meetium and Company senior entertainment and Internet analysts

19
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 2: Laura Martin and talking about what the deal would be

20
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: because now Netflix is looking at buying Warner Brothers.

21
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 5: Do you feel like there's momentum here that Netflix is

22
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 5: kind of moving towards a deal?

23
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 6: You know, I think that it's a smart move for

24
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 6: them to look at the books of Warner.

25
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 4: They lose nothing by doing the due diligence and looking at.

26
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 6: Warner's business model. I think Wall Street would be supportive

27
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,559
Speaker 6: of Netflix using its very valuable equity to buy the studios.

28
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 6: I do not think wall Stree would be of use

29
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 6: if they tried to buy the linear TV networks. And

30
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 6: I think that, you know, I think there's a disagreement

31
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 6: within Netflix. You're right that when I last saw you,

32
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 6: Greg Peters was like, hard, no, we don't want to

33
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 6: look at these assets tests Aroundo's body language on his.

34
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 4: Earning's call was much more open.

35
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 6: Probably because he's the content guy, and Warner Brothers has

36
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 6: some of the best IP in the deepest library of

37
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 6: any studio, and once you own the IP, you never

38
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 6: have to pay to rent it again.

39
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 2: All right, broken down for those who kind of missed

40
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 2: what she's saying, Netflix interest, according to this analyst, would

41
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 2: likely be the stuff that Warner owns, like the DC Universe,

42
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 2: all the different movies you see on HBO or that

43
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 2: sort of thing, but that Netflix probably wouldn't be interested

44
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 2: in owning CNN or Discovery Channel or the networks under Discovery,

45
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: you know, the other parts of Warner that's the linear TV.

46
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: So what she's saying is it's not really in netflix wheelhouse.

47
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: Netflix is trying to do some live streaming stuff. They're

48
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 2: trying to do some live events, but they're still not

49
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: doing a lot of it. So would they be able

50
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: to do more the linear live TV now kind of

51
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 2: things which you do see with Amazon for instance, And

52
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 2: what she's saying is now, Netflix probably wouldn't want the

53
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 2: whole package. They definitely are interested in some of the

54
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 2: intellectual property behind things like DC.

55
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 4: So it's really hot. It hard to keep creating brand

56
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 4: new IP.

57
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 6: You may as well get some that has an installed

58
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 6: base of fandom from fifty the last fifty years, and

59
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 6: Warner brother has some of the monks next to the

60
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 6: Walt Disney Company.

61
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 2: So should Netflix do it?

62
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 4: I think it.

63
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 6: Depends on price because it is contentious within Wall Street.

64
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 2: I mean, isn't that the truth to anything? You're gonna

65
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 2: buy that because of the price. Sometimes you see crap

66
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: you don't even need, but the price is too good

67
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 2: and you're like, well, I have to get that. I

68
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 2: do that at home deepot all the time. I go

69
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: to the clearanceile and I go, oh my gosh, I

70
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: do not need backsplash. But this is ninety percent off. Honey,

71
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: We're redoing the backsplash.

72
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 4: It depends on price.

73
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 6: And I get the sense that Water Brothers really wants

74
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 6: to sell Deer because they have this idea that if

75
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 6: they split in half, they're going to get twenty six

76
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 6: twenty seven dollars a share of total value. I don't

77
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 6: believe that, but if they believe that, then that means

78
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 6: that they're going to try to overcharge Netflix, and I

79
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 6: will be I don't know that Wall Street that Netflix

80
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 6: would be overpay for the studio assets.

81
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: Ah, who else?

82
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 4: I mean, we've talked about Comcast.

83
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 5: I mean who else could be, you know, a really

84
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 5: big competitor here for Warner Brothers.

85
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 4: So I think, you know. My opinion is the way

86
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 4: this plays out.

87
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 2: Is this is the money quote. By the way, this

88
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 2: is really smart what she's saying here again Laura Martin,

89
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 2: who is the need of and Company senior Entertainment and

90
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: Internet analyst, and she's got a great vibe on this.

91
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: Who's going to buy Warner Listen? This is this is

92
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 2: she's connecting dots here.

93
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 6: Everybody looks at the books, everybody gets the inside scoop

94
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 6: on what's happening at Warner Brothers, because why not, you're

95
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 6: competing against.

96
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 4: Them, And then the price and then they buy.

97
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 6: I try to buy a piece by Comcast tries to

98
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 6: buy Linear or Netflix tries to buy, and I'm not

99
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 6: sure they are regulatively approvable for Larry Ellison, who.

100
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 4: Is Donald Trump's good spread.

101
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 6: So I think all of this is in in the end,

102
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 6: a way to get Ray, Larry Ellison, David la to

103
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 6: get their price up to match whoever else is bidding.

104
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 4: But I think that's Ellison's the only ones that can

105
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 4: get this to Regulus in my opinion.

106
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 2: There you go, So they shook the right hands, they

107
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 2: make the right deal. Warner is trying to leverage some

108
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 2: other interest in order to get more money for it,

109
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: but ultimately who can get it done? It sounds like

110
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: sounds like a Paramount Skydance are the only ones that

111
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: can get it done. And you know they ought to

112
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 2: have more money now because they just fired more people

113
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: from NBCLA.

114
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 7: Playoffs are cutting across all of Paramount's division's film, TV

115
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 7: streaming corporate and after today's one thousand layoffs, another one

116
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 7: thousand layoffs are expected to follow, according to Variety magazine.

117
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 7: The layoffs have been expected ever since a merger was

118
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 7: announced between Paramount and sky Dance. The new chairman and CEO,

119
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 7: David Ellison, says the company will need to restructure to

120
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 7: invest what invest in what he calls our growth businesses.

121
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 7: A deal for nearly eight billion dollars for UFC rights

122
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 7: is one of those investments. Paramount is also looking to

123
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 7: buy Warner Brothers Discovery, a deal which could mean even

124
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 7: more layoffs.

125
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 2: According to Variety, Yeah, so we're laying people off the

126
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: streamline things so that we have more money, so that

127
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 2: we can buy more companies, so that we can lay

128
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 2: more people off. So who benefits the investors? The investors benefit.

129
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 2: It is a there's a tale of two different philosophies

130
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: when it comes to business in a capitalistic system. Let

131
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 2: me let me clarify that which is what we have.

132
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 2: It's not going into where although I did hear the

133
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: story that college students prefer socialism over capitalism, which is

134
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 2: never thought i'd hear that story. But you got two

135
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: different approaches to business. One is our job is to

136
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: make as much money for our investors. As possible. Right,

137
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 2: usually your publicly traded companies. That's that's the deal. The

138
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 2: other business philosophy is, my job is to create a

139
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: sustainable business that is good for as many people as possible,

140
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 2: and that generally is a much lower profit margin. Uh,

141
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: it helps more people. Usually you get more good will,

142
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 2: but you don't make as much money. And so the

143
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 2: question for those who are of the latter persuasion is

144
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 2: how much is enough? Is ten percent return? Is five

145
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: percent return enough? Because most business analysts will tell you, no,

146
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 2: five percent return is not enough. We gotta you gotta

147
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 2: have more, right, we gotta we gotta see better, And

148
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: so they go up. You know what, the CEO is

149
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 2: only getting us three, four or five percent return. We

150
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: got to bring somebody else in. That somebody else comes in,

151
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: They go, we're gonna right size this place, and then

152
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 2: cuts across the board. We gotta make it. We gotta

153
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 2: make these cuts. Now. In the case of Paramount sky Dance,

154
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 2: you know there's gonna be layoffs because there's a redundancy.

155
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: You don't need two receptionists for one company, for instance,

156
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 2: right whereas you had two before. You don't need two

157
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 2: creative directors. You don't need too the sales and marketing directors, right,

158
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 2: so there's redundancy. Is there an opportunity though, to take

159
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 2: those incredibly talented people who whose livelihoods were just completely

160
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 2: turned upside down and find someplace else within the company

161
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 2: that could help grow the company without them losing their incomes.

162
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 2: I mean, that's forever The business question.

163
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 8: I think what we're looking at still is this has

164
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 8: been a difficult decade from COVID through the strikes, through

165
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 8: layoffs and consolidation and closing of theaters. You know, we're

166
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 8: in an awkward period here, and Onlywood has gone through

167
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 8: these periods before. The late sixties and early seventies were

168
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 8: a rough spot. And then suddenly we get to Star

169
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 8: Wars and et and everything's okay again. We're going to

170
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 8: be okay again. We just have to get to the

171
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 8: other side of this.

172
00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 2: Okay, So all we need is Star Wars problem solved.

173
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 2: I'm in let's just let's just find the next major,

174
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 2: major franchise. I don't know what it is, but that's

175
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: all we need. And then we fixed Hollywood done, and

176
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:24,239

00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 2: No kidding.

210
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 3: That's the biggest HR complaint. But no one complained. We

211
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 3: just those were the rules.

212
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 2: It was like, oh, we have noticed that. That is creepy.

213

219
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 2: point out that I tossed to Brigia and said that

220
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 2: she did not have baby oil. It would have been creepy.

221
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 2: Had I said that she was oiled up in doing

222
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 2: the news. That would have been the HR violation, but

223
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: I went the other direction, you see.

224
00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 3: So I was just responding to Kayla who said, sos I, I.

225

Speaker 12: allegations against him.

331
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you know who els is denying the allegations.

Speaker 2: you know what, there are no files. Yes, as far

334
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 2: as we know, there was no one. The FBI is backing,

335
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 2: not Prince Andrew on this one, just Andy. They're backing

336
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: Prince Andy. The FBI said, there's nothing to see, there's

337
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 2: no files, there's no list. We don't have any evidence

338
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 2: that anyone else was involved in anything. Ever, Nope, totally clean.

339

Speaker 2: He just lost his not crown. His brother just took

341
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 2: away his title. That's the kind of thing they write

342
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 2: about in history books. That sucks. All right. You think

343
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 2: the nine to five is still the rule? Get ready?

344
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 2: Gen Z just turned nine to five into a suggestion.

345
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 2: It's called micro shifting and what that means to your

346

Speaker 2: job and why your best work might be happening at

362
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 2: Good. I'm so glad. It's called micro shifting.

363
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 3: Okay, we've been micro shifting our whole lives though, thank.

364
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 2: You, and you know how much I love it.

365
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 3: But actually I do love gen Z and how they

366
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 3: are kind of standing up for workers rights by just

367
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 3: saying we're not getting any of the benefits that older

368
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 3: generations got. We're just not going to clock in when

369
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 3: we don't feel like it.

370
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:11,479
Speaker 2: So that's here for it.

371
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 3: I like it.

372
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 2: That's fine, and I'm down with that and I'm cool

373
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 2: with yep, I'm with you. You and I Aron agreement

374
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 2: on that. Can they just stop renaming crap? All right,

375
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 2: here's micro shifting. It's called micro shifting.

376
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 14: Gen Z are Now this is.

377
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 2: From some random blog from some gen xers near it

378
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 2: Cohen gen.

379
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 15: Z are now predominant generation that works these shift jobs.

380
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 15: And this generation has a very different relationship to work.

381
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, lazy kids these days don't want to work. No,

382
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 2: that's not true. That's just what old people always say.

383
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 15: Again, we said that what they want out of work

384
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 15: number one desire is flexibility.

385
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 14: So where is in the past.

386
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 4: Business is scheduled?

387
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 14: They're workers to five, right, That's how we work, That's

388
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 14: how our parents worked.

389
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they started making it eight to five

390
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 2: because they said they were going to pay us for lunch.

391
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 14: And gen Z is rejecting that. Okay, we're seeing what

392
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 14: they're asking for. Are these we're calling them micro shifts.

393
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 14: They're flexible work arrangements.

394
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 2: They're flexible work arrangements.

395
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 14: They're four to six hour shifts. You know that gen

396
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 14: Z mom starts working and maybe works nine to twelve

397
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 14: and then takes care of her kids, picks up her kids,

398
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 14: you know, or does other things that she needs, and

399
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 14: then she works another shift in the afternoon.

400
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, what a novel idea. If only someone

401
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 2: had ever thought of that ever in the history of ever.

402
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 2: But until gen Z came along and gave it a

403
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: name called micro shifting, nobody had ever thought of doing

404
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: anything like a flexible working arrangement or what we have

405
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 2: always called a flexible work schedule. It's not new. Stop

406
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 2: renaming things and pretending you're innovative. You can call it

407
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 2: a flexible work schedule. You can call it a split shift.

408
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 2: I don't care what you call it. Just stop renaming

409
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 2: it something else.

410
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 3: But like, if they re name it to a four

411
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 3: day work week, are we all here for that? They

412
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 3: wouldn't call it a four I say yes.

413
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 2: They would not call it a for four day week,

414
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 2: would they call it? They would call it like a

415
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: it's an mt week standing from Monday through Thursday. I

416
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 2: don't think it's a myth week Monday Thursday work week.

417
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 2: Oh no, we're we're working. It's a thirty we're working.

418
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 2: It's a thirty two shift. It's four days, eight hours

419
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 2: a day. It's a thirty two. Oh it's our new

420
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 2: Oh this.

421
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 16: Is our a AI flex micro shifting quiet schedule lane

422
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 16: because AI means we don't have to come into work

423
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 16: as much.

424
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 2: That's what it's going to be. Stop it with that.

425
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 2: Just stop renaming crap. When when the time comes and

426
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 2: it's a four day work week, just call it a

427
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 2: four day work week. That's it. When you want to

428
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 2: split your shift, call it a split shift. What do

429
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,719
Speaker 2: you want to have flexibility? Because you got kids who

430
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 2: are in school and they've got half day kindergarten on Monday,

431
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 2: Wednesday and Friday, but full day kindergarten on Tuesday and

432
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 2: Thursday at your Fu Fu private school. You call that

433
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 2: a flexible schedule. That's all. That's what we're doing. Stop

434
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 2: renaming crap. Unbelievable, gen Z. This is why nobody likes you.

435
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 2: This is it? This in that six seven thing six

Speaker 2: Age I feel bad about not saying, you know, nice

468
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,239
Speaker 2: things about Eileen when she's here, because she's pretty dynamite too.

469
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 3: But here's the thing. You're such a hype man for

470
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 3: all of us here at KFI, and we love you

471
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 3: for that. So you are forgiven. We know where your

472
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 3: heart is.

473
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: You deserve it, I mean it. And I always find

474
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 2: you catch more bees with honey than you do with vinegar. Right.

475
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 2: So I've always been I've always been a bad manager

476
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 2: because I'm I'm like the guy who's like, come on,

477
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: I believe in you. And you know, employees always took

478
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 2: the took advantage of me. So I stopped being a

479
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 2: manager and I just started doing on air. And then

480
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 2: of course doctor Wendy Walsh pops into the studio as well. Hello, Hello,

481
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 2: hey girl, I saw the latest here on velcrow parents.

482
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,719
Speaker 2: Are you familiar with this term of velcrow parents?

483
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 5: Does it sound like helicopter parents but even closer?

484
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 2: Thank you. That's that was exactly my take. Velcrow parents,

485
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 2: they say gaining traction and social media describes moms with

486
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 2: dads who stay constantly attached to their kids by choice

487
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 2: or by necessity. They say it can foster strong ponds

488
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 2: and emotional intelligence. But experts Warner can also lead to

489
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 2: overstimulation for parents and overdependence for children. It sounds like

490
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 2: helicopter parenting to me.

491
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 5: Okay, well, let's talk about the age of the child

492
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 5: first of all. Okay, zero to three. I love the

493
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 5: idea of velcrow parents. That's the best thing possible. A

494
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 5: child's home is its parents' body, and more often that

495
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 5: tends to be the mother because she's often has the

496
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 5: food supply on our body. So you want to So

497
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 5: there is a misnomer that if you don't teach kids

498
00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 5: to be independent, that they'll become very clingy, and actually

499
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 5: it's the opposite. The closer you keep your baby and toddler,

500
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 5: the more they will have the self confidence to go

501
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 5: out and explore the world.

502
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 2: Now, when does that change because I have a twenty

503
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 2: six year old I can't seem to get rid of.

504
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 5: Okay, well, that's a whole other thing. Because they're talking

505
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 5: about what's going on with this generation of young adults

506
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 5: who are failing to launch because they can't afford it.

507
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,959
Speaker 5: That's what's going on. They'll never do as well as

508
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 5: their parents, they say. So anyway, then after that, a

509
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 5: parent has to be very sensitive to when the child

510
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 5: is ready to separate or be autonomous or do things

511
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 5: on their own, and they have to then encourage them. No, honey,

512
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 5: you can do it, you can you know whatever. And

513
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 5: if the parent has a need, let's say the parent

514
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 5: has an anxious attachment style themselves, a need for all

515
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 5: that contact, then it becomes problematic.

516
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 2: Ah, it's my dad's fault.

517
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 5: Well yeah, and there I see the velcrow parents and

518
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 5: older kids, young adults more than anything. I'm put up there.

519
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 5: I sat in my dating life and now I see

520
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 5: it with the parents I know and their kids. Single

521
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 5: mother's only child, male.

522
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 2: Okay, and not to get oedipal or anything, but is

523
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 2: that is that more for mom than it is like

524
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 2: the kid.

525
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 5: He becomes her surrogate boyfriend.

526
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: I was going to say security blanket, but I like

527
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 2: where you went. That's great. So that's that's a confidant, companionship, security,

528
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 2: all those things.

529
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 5: My daughter, when she was in college, there was a

530
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 5: mom of a boy, single mom, only child who would

531
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 5: come and party in the dorms with the guys.

532
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 2: No, that's horrors behavior. It is because I mean, what

533
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 2: does she after? Isn't she after sexual attention? Is she's

534
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 2: partying with frat guys.

535
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 5: No, no, I think you're you're confusing sexuality here with attachment.

536
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 5: She just so attached and in her mind, she's this young,

537
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 5: happy person with her boyfriend and she can't stand that

538
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 5: he's so far away in a college dorm. So she's

539
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 5: going to, well, what's he into. I'll be what he's into.

540
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 5: It's about tachment and loss, all right, more than yeah,

541
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 5: we're not talking about that, I.

542
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 2: Know, but I just see I could definitely see like

543
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 2: a mid forties woman wanting to take her kid to

544
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: college to have the other frat guy's eyeballer so she

545
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: feels young and attractive.

546
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 5: I will not comment on that.

547
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,239
Speaker 2: Maybe, Okay, see now I'm not too far off, though,

548
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 2: am I? Like I ken, I'm not saying this is

549
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 2: that's your case.

550
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 5: Cougar ish.

551
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: I know you. Look, Hey, I married a single mom

552
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 2: who's eight years older than me.

553
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, you married a cougar.

554
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 2: Absolutely Now she's a saber tooth tiger, but she was

555
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 2: agar at the time. Yeah, so I like, I get it.

556
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 2: And I worked I worked in hot a Sea radio, right,

557
00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 2: adult contemporary radio like a kiss? Right, I guess just

558
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 2: a little more CHR but I worked in that and

559
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 2: we always talked about the suspended adolescence of our target demographic.

560
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 2: Like nobody wants, especially women, nobody wants to feel like

561
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: they're getting old. They want to feel young, and they

562
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 2: want to feel connected. It is one of the reasons.

563
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,719
Speaker 5: I'm going to argue with you on that. And So

564
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 5: I used to be hot, hot, hot, hot hot hot.

565
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 5: I modeled enough said, I moved to Paris when I

566
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 5: was eighteen. My whole life people put so much attention

567
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 5: onto what I look like. Yeah, that it bothered me

568
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 5: because I had the same brain and I was smart,

569
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 5: and no one could hear me talking because they were

570
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 5: staring at my boops. So when as I aged, I

571
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 5: felt happier because my face grew into my brain.

572
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 2: At what point did you feel like that was going

573
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 2: well for like.

574
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 5: In my forties?

575
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 2: Okay? Is it different for someone who is not smoking

576
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 2: hot or so?

577
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 5: I would say, some who's not smart.

578
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 2: All they have to go on.

579
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 5: So they're going to cling on to the looks thing

580
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 5: for the rest of their life.

581
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so they definitely don't want to let go

582
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 2: of it, right, they don't.

583
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 5: That's all they have, right I do, remember me politely

584
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 5: saying to a girlfriend at some point in our forties, like,

585
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 5: you don't have to dress like that, and she goes,

586
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 5: I'm not you. I don't have anything else to offer. Yeah,

587
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 5: I felt really sad.

588
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 2: I'm going to say something that runs the risk of

589
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 2: me sounding like a real creep, but I mean it

590
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 2: as a compliment. And that is that when you and

591
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 2: I started doing this crossover stuff, they're like, oh, doctor Wendy,

592
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 2: she's done a bunch of stuff on TV and things

593
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 2: like that. And I didn't it, like it didn't ring

594
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 2: a bell. And so you and I talked this way first,

595
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 2: and then somebody said you gotta look, and I looked,

596
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 2: and I saw obviously, Okay, doctor Wendy's done freaking everything everything.

597
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my gosh, she's smoking hot. But I

598
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 2: do think there's a great point. That's what this is

599
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 2: What uh caught my attention is that that's a really

600
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 2: great point that the first impression is not physical. And

601
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 2: that was the case with my wife too. We met,

602
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 2: you know, she was a creepy stalker listener and we

603
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 2: were emailing back and forth.

604
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 5: You married a listener.

605
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 2: I know, Rule number one Radio.

606
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 5: You are now inspiring all the listeners.

607
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 2: Out, no, don't do it. Yeah, me and Bill handle,

608
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 2: look how that's works.

609
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, isn't he a yeah?

610
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, what a terrible idea. Why because look at what

611
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 2: it has done to their lives. They're stuck with radio guys.

612
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 2: Oh oh, the listeners are having But because my wife

613
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 2: is very attractive too, way better than me, and so

614
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 2: I outkicked the coverage. And I think a lot of

615
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 2: that had to do with getting to know each other

616
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 2: without seeing what the other one looked like first. That's interesting.

617
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, it's the promise of all those shows like

618
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 5: Love is Blind.

619
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: You know right, I'm running like Kaylee tells me, I

620
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 2: need to show up. Okay. Doctor Wendy Wallash. Doctor Wendy

621
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,880
