You 21 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: don't have to go back and listen but last year 22 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: I predicted a global pandemic and that Trump would lose 23 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: to Joe Biden in the election. Um, I forget what 24 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: you guys predictions were. But um, yeah, so I can 25 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: see into the future. Okay, so what do you got 26 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: for us? What do you got for us? Now, I'll 27 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: leave it up to you guys. I'll leave it up 28 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: to you guys to kick us off. I'm gonna take 29 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: up the good predictions. You know, you see what you 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: guys got, and then we'll reference that with what will happen? 31 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: And I, like, I don't want to give away the 32 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: answer before the question is asked. Um, my first prediction 33 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: is that one will be the year of intensifying third 34 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: party talk on the left or the right. I'm not sure. 35 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: That's the weird part about this. I'm not sure, if 36 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: you know, depending on what happens in Georgia. Uh so, 37 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: actually I would be technically tomorrow based on when this 38 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: comes out on the what happens there, if there's talk 39 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: of Trumper's trying to do their own like Maga fascist 40 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: party because they don't like the GOP because it's not 41 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: racist enough for them, or if progressives uh and like 42 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: they're like the left wing of the Democratic Party. You're 43 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: like the thing that we've been telling leaders all the 44 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: time to help, you know, cure the ills as we 45 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: see them, they're not doing. And they're just doing things 46 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: like telling the corporations like, don't worry, we're not going 47 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: to legislate against you. That's just that's just some malarkey 48 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: that other people we're talking. I would never do anything 49 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: to the corporations. So I have a like, you know, 50 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: you can feel you can feel it in the air. Um, 51 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: whether that's just like the sort of exasperation of the 52 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: left and progressives when looking at some of the things 53 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: that the Biden administration is up to. Um or again 54 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: on the on the right because they've just basically the 55 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: GP hasn't stopped the steel. Um. Yeah, I I could see. 56 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: I mean, if one side, like one kind of further 57 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: to the right or left branch of the of the 58 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: party kind of breaks off, I could see that being 59 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: an excuse or an opportunity for the other to do 60 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: the same. Right if if they you know, if you 61 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: see that the Republicans wildest breaks off to to form 62 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: the mega party, then like that there's a greater opportunity 63 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: for the more the actually progressive part of the Democratic 64 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: Party break off. Yeah, I just I think both parties 65 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: know the second that happens, it's it's a it's a rap, 66 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: like trying to wrangle that is going. I mean, because 67 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: we've never really had that in this country, like truly, 68 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: Uh why, at least in the modern era where we're like, 69 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: what's who's it going to be? What are the what? What? 70 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: What do we do now? Because the power used to 71 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: be just concentrated into two sides, And what happens if 72 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: we begin doing that other thing? But I don't know. 73 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: I'm also I think that's that's all along the lines 74 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: with my overall prediction that I just know that I don't. 75 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: I don't think the Democrats are are clear in terms 76 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: of not hearing any complaints coming from people that were 77 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: voting for them either, right, which is very down the 78 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: middle take. But I think the third Party, I'm hoping 79 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: that that talk intensifies because we're finding ourselves at a 80 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: place where like it's sort of like, well, you know, 81 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: what you're saying is nice, but that's too extreme for 82 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: the donor class. So we're not going to We're not 83 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: going to entertain it. Uh, and that's the thing that 84 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: I'm hoping we'll be able to begin to really you know, 85 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: take a look at and try to overcome, because that's 86 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: a source of a lot of grid luck when we're 87 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: putting profits over people. Yeah. I mean I have one 88 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 1: that's kind of related. That's just like the you know, 89 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: the can't we just go back to sleep contingent will 90 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: be more and more vocal, Like there's gonna be a 91 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: lot of awkward and annoying conversations with people who are 92 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, telling us what is practical impossible based on 93 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: just some bullshit that they've been told by the mainstream 94 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: media and the establishment because and I haven't like spent 95 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: the time looking into the underlying assumptions. So um, yeah, yeah, 96 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: I think that's a lot of Hey, Trump's not president anymore. 97 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: You can stop with this stuff, man, No, can't can't 98 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: stop on stop yeah, um, super producer on a hosny A. Uh, actually, 99 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back 100 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: with your prediction. And we're back. And I believe I 101 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: was about to share my prediction on a Hosnier our 102 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: oracle or seer, what what is going to happen in 103 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: the year. Um. I have a few thoughts. I do 104 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: think we will um now I this is more of 105 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: a hope, uh, that we will not drive as much. 106 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: I think in general, like we will become I think 107 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: for the last year we've become so accustomed to like 108 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: being on our loans. I do think it will take 109 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: a while to get out of that. I think driving 110 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: will slow down significantly. And if so, I mean the 111 00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: unfortunate thing is maybe uber's and lifts may go up. Um. 112 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm really stuck on the driving thing 113 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: because it's it's so hard for me even remember like 114 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: when I drove last And I think that's going to 115 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: continue for a while, even after vaccinations and we all 116 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: slowly start returning back to daily life. I do think 117 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: travel will still kind of lesson, if you will, like, 118 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: there will still be some weirdness out there home bodying 119 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: to get over. Yeah, I feel like a lot of 120 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: like jobs we've we've learned can be done from home. 121 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: I do feel like that's going There's going to be 122 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: some residual home body nous as you said, miles left 123 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: over in the in the workforce for sure. Yeah. And 124 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: you think, well that with the remote like telecommeding and 125 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: stuff like that, like a business like it's a big 126 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: expense I don't have anymore is physical office space. And 127 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: yet all my my businesses operating, uh, because it seems 128 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: like the more like uh sort of ahead of the 129 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: way come. And users sort of like took that as 130 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: a moment to be like, you know what, we actually 131 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: realized we don't need a centralized physical location for us 132 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: to operate like this. Um. And I think we're just 133 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: so used to like some version of a factory or 134 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: going into clock in and clock out, that maybe that 135 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: will I certainly hope that that happens. And if that 136 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: is something that we we should share with the listeners 137 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: that when we used to go to work in the 138 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: same office, I would sit at the entrance with a 139 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: big giant red stamp and make you guys put a 140 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: put a time card down. Um. Yeah, And it was 141 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: weird because the time card machine didn't really work. It 142 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: wasn't operationally. You just like you just like to see 143 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: someone put a thing in and hear the sound, and 144 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: that was about it. I've saved a lot of money 145 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: not bribing you every day when I came in late. 146 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: That's true. You always had a big gas Manila envelope. 147 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 1: I also feel like we might see like I'm gonna 148 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 1: be a word driver for sure once I started driving again, 149 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: Like I'm gonna be d like once a week, because 150 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: I sometimes go Now, when I was driving recently, I'll 151 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: go into autopilot, and then that will scare me for 152 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: a second of like whoa, whoa, you haven't been driving 153 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: enough to just so casually pilot. Well, just like my 154 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: mind starts to drift it I'm you know, because I'm 155 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: it goes back to when I was driving every day. 156 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: But then I freak myself out because I'm like, whoa, 157 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: Like you've had too much time off to just be 158 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: autopiloting so casually, Like you actually do need to focus 159 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: a little because you haven't. You barely go out on 160 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: the streets now, Yeah, do you have any pop culture 161 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 1: your head on a swivel. Keep your head on a 162 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: swivel out there, guys. That's my prediction for you. Uh yeah, Well, 163 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: I'm I think movies are going to make a comeback 164 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: this year. Like I I talked a lot about the 165 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: power of movies to control our cultural imagination based on like, 166 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: you know, the power of the medium sitting in a 167 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: dark room consuming uninterrupted just content. Um, and then the 168 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: feel like there's a I do feel like there's a 169 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: higher level of artistry that isn't maybe um as evident 170 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: to us, like when we're watching quote unquote prestige television, 171 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: but like when you look at the shows, like some 172 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: of the top shows of the year like Ratchet, Space, 173 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: forest Lock and Key Outer Banks. Never have I ever like, 174 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure there are some movies that are you know, 175 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: would have hit the top ten that wouldn't be like 176 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: super quality, but like, I don't know, that seems it 177 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: seems slightly diminished in terms of or at least noticeable 178 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: compared to like the level of quality you're getting even 179 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: with like a genre movie. So um, I could see 180 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: you know now that we're going to have movies streaming 181 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: available to us via HBO Max or at least a 182 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: lot of movies, probably more movies, well everybody you'll have 183 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: time to watch. Uh. I do feel like people are 184 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: gonna start watching movies again. Movie stars are coming back. 185 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: A kid. I do think it will actually be very 186 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: nice to get away from our phones. Like I find 187 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: my phone so deeply annoying because it's so accessible at 188 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: all times. I feel like there's no time that I 189 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: can truly just like be like I have to be 190 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: away from my phone. And do you think do you 191 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: think movies will yes, because if you're in a movie theater, 192 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: like I actively know the rules, I can't pull out 193 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: my phone. But like when I'm at home all day 194 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: and just working, like you can be talking to me 195 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: right now. I have perfected scrolling Instagram while making eye 196 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: contact with you, it's absurd, Like what you independence you've 197 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: developed is truly something like I can literally have my 198 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: phone right below the screen and you think I'm looking 199 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: at you. It's that's not good, but you are looking 200 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: at us like when I was just saying, with your 201 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: right eye and then you're left scroll hold you can 202 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: see It's like I've become that. I don't like that 203 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: like I want to have. I don't want to be 204 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: able to look at my phone at all times because 205 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: I'm at home and there's no consequences of me clearly 206 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: not paying attention. And that's that's that's like a hopeful 207 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: prediction I have is the you know, pendulum hopefully swinging 208 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: the other way with social media because and then like 209 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: whether it was the pandemic or even people seeing that 210 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: one documentary of the social dilemma, Like more and more 211 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: at least people are talking about social media as like 212 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: a dimension of self self care or like what we 213 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: do to ourselves by engaging with it too much. And 214 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: I'm the same way, like where I really don't like 215 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: sometimes that I will my heart rate could get elevated 216 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 1: when I'm looking at an app icon and being like, 217 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: do I go in here right now? Do I go 218 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: in that room where all the screams are coming out 219 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 1: of I don't think so. Do you also feel like 220 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: it doesn't do it for you anymore? Yeah? Because it 221 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 1: only I've I started on Instagram in two thousand nine, 222 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: I believe right when the start, and I've been instagramming since, 223 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: and it doesn't hit the same anymore. I don't get 224 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: that same high. I don't even the likes. I'm like, 225 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: funk off, Like I don't like I'm not you text me, 226 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: You're like, way to like that bullshit? It's like you 227 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: posted it. Yeah, like nothing gets like It's like the 228 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: drug you've taken in your tolerance has built to a 229 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: point where it's just pointless at this That's how Instagram 230 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: scrolling feels to me like I don't and it doesn't work. 231 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: Part Way there, you're acknowledging that you're now engaging this 232 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: thing that no longer does the same thing for you, 233 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 1: so therefore maybe put it right. But then at the 234 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: same time, I continue to do it because there's like 235 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: just nothing else to do, Like I'm just NonStop doing 236 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: it even though it doesn't hit. I feel like I'm 237 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: in like a time loop of like addness in a 238 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: way where I'm just like, why I figure that outting 239 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: this app? I don't even care half of you are muted. 240 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'm following anymore, you know, Sorry, 241 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: no offense, everybody, You're all great. I do wonder like 242 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: what that will look like. Would it just be diminished 243 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: you spy? Or are we talking about like, actually, you know, 244 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: to the government passing some sort of legislation. I think 245 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: it's both, Like, obviously they have a problem to tackle there, 246 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: and I think people are gonna self regulate however they 247 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: want to. But like to Anna's how Anna's describing and 248 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: how you're describing how I'm talking about it, Like I've 249 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: fully crossed over to the point where I'm like like 250 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: I like doing some stuff on here, but it's definitely 251 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: not the thing that was always like, oh now I 252 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: see it. It's it looks a little bit uglier to me, 253 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: and like there's I don't know, there's a cynicism about 254 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: like looking at these apps and like what it's doing, 255 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: what it's contributing, what it could be doing to me, 256 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: and what I think my own interests are. And I 257 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: think that's the weird part that I also want to 258 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: kind of distance myself from. Sorry, just going back to, uh, 259 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: the movie thing, Anna, will you not watch?

I was thinking like kind of like um, 328 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: bar code tattooed on our forehead, oh my god, oh yeah, 329 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: the back of your head like the hit Man game series, 330 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: and you go like, yeah, scan me, bro, I've been vaccined, 331 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: and we we we shortened it to vax seed. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, 332 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: I like that vaccined. Just I've been watching my boyfriend 333 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: play cyberpunk now I'm all like, really a little vaccined 334 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: oil brilliantly kind of really aesthetically like really futuristic, sort 335 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: of like cyberpunky vibes. Now you're coming at us from seven, 336 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: but have laser eyes if possible. That's your prediction for 337 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: this year? No, no, no, that's that. Hit me back 338 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: up in when we do this in okay. Um No, 339 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,199 Speaker 1: Actually I do have a prediction, which, um is this 340 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: the show for it? Mm hmmm, where I do think 341 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: that's sort of like sex worker figures will become just 342 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: as prominent and and because of like only fans and 343 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: sites like that, they will become as prominent as certain celebrities, 344 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: Like I think we will become more um like, they 345 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: will become more like, yeah, we'll become more sex positive 346 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: and um like, they will become more like mainstream, like 347 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: people will know their names, you know. And I think, 348 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: like I'm learning a lot about it because of only fans. 349 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, yeah, and you know she you know, 350 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: she really brings in the money, she does, like, and 351 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: it almost becomes like I'm talking about it so neutrally 352 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: because like it's not that big a deal to make 353 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: money on only fans, Like it just is what it is. 354 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: You do what you gotta do. And I think I hope, 355 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,360 Speaker 1: I do hope. It's again more of a hope than 356 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: a prediction that these people are becoming more mainstream and 357 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: it's more accepted, widely accepted as a way to make 358 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: money and live your life. Right, Well, that's funny because 359 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: then let's sort of like the New York Post got 360 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: a lot of ship because they did this weird story 361 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: exposing like a New York City paramedic, Like she's like 362 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: a part time sex worker and it's someone it's this 363 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: paramedic who has only fans to pay bills. What's the fun? 364 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: And like this is where it all just you know, 365 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: I think that's that's another cultural uh point that I 366 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: think hopefully we can make a an improvement for the 367 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: better for material Yeah, are these women and why are 368 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: they empowered to do what they want with their bodies? 369 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: I for one believe that is actually very dangerous, very dangerous. 370 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: What's next? Joe Biden will be president? I hope not, 371 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 1: but that's where we are, uh the I think that 372 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: my prediction is Jake Paul is gonna be the new 373 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump? What on? Like like generationally now you're going big. Well, look, 374 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: this man is building a career on fighting black people, 375 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: like physically fighting black people. He did it with k 376 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: s I, he did it with Nate Robinson. He's gonna 377 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: fight Floyd Mayweather like he's he's created these because I 378 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: look at the comments and there are people who like 379 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: you get him, and they're i think looking into a 380 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: little bit differently than a boxing match, like uh might 381 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: be a little allegorical for some of the viewers, and 382 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 1: there is I don't know, there's just uh just like 383 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: with his confidence and things like that, and he's just 384 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: like I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that. I 385 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: don't care like and he's so out of touch. He 386 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: thinks of the news isn't real. He feels there's something 387 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: about it that I mean, it could it could completely 388 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 1: flame out. But he seems to have a lot of 389 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: people's attention and he's done. He doesn't have a good 390 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: uh place he's coming from. So I'm curious to see 391 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: where that ends up, Like, given where we're at as 392 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: a country and like what we're calling, you know, entertainment 393 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: quote unquote. He should he should fight his parents because 394 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:01,959 Speaker 1: he sucks. Man it's gonna be like, I don't I 395 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: don't even I'm not even gonna try to predict where 396 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: the racist right wing uh you know terror movement goes 397 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: because it's just too scary and depressing. But guessing not 398 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: in a good direction. Um based on what they're specifically 399 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: telling us they're gonna um yeah, well ship on that note, 400 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: any other predictions predictees. Oh, I think Joe Bienen is 401 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: going to give us one of the most hilarious gaffs 402 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: of all time. I mean, I just but it's gonna 403 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: be like good, like it's gonna be like Adelda seem 404 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: level like where we're like I was hoping he bends 405 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: over and then no, no, he sneezes and farts at 406 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: the same time. That would be dope. I've ever done that. 407 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: I didn't one time in sixth grade. I'll never forget 408 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: one and far at the same time. You'll never forget 409 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: that I'm gonna eat a lot of shrimp and look 410 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: at the sun. Well. I don't know. It was just 411 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: so random it happened, and it shook me because I 412 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: was like, dude, I just far Antonie's at the same 413 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: time like a dog when they fart like, well, yeah, 414 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: can kiss you off guard because it happens at the 415 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,400 Speaker 1: exact same moment and you're like, now that is synchronous. 416 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: That that's when you know, that's what synergy. That's synergy 417 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: and you never forget it. So, um, I do hope 418 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: Biden gets to experience one of those on camera. I 419 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: mean that definitely is all orifice activation.
