00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 2: We haven't done that before. You know what, It's familiar,

5
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, it's relevant.

6
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 3: My zight is like my zight is like a shark's trend.

7
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 2: Oh okay, my credit is like a shark site.

00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:20,920
Speaker 3: My trend is like a Zark site.

9
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 2: Yeah. Whatever, we'll modulate, We'll modulate.

10
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm jack that over there, Miles, great, thank you,

00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: thank you, And uh, these are some of the things

12
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: that are trending.

13
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 3: Gen z is killing the bar tab Yep.

14
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 4: You fucking hate to fucking see this, but uh, there

15
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 4: was a thing going on Twitter yesterday where I'm just

16
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 4: gonna read this tweet and then we will we will

17
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 4: talk about the debate that this kicked off. This is

18
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 4: from at Will's Willie Staley tweeted, got the bar last night?

19
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 4: The zoomers were all paying with credit cards and closing

20
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 4: out on every round.

21
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 2: This is psycho behavior.

22
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 4: Someone needs to teach these children how to go to

23
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 4: the bar.

24
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: Okay. So there were plenty of people that agreed with

25
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: this take.

26
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 4: While many others, especially from abroad, were like, this is

27
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 4: how you pay.

28
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 2: For drinks at a bar every time?

29
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 4: Y And I totally get that tabs can make things

30
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 4: easier for servers, like I've managed bars. I totally get that,

31
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 4: like having to run over to your POS system, like

32
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,559
Speaker 4: every transaction can.

33
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: Hold shit up.

34
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 4: But that would be the one semi valid criticism of

35
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 4: this I could think of, would be consideration for the

36
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 4: server or bartender. But what the fuck is wrong with

37
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 4: not wanting to start a tab?

38
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: Well, you don't get to drink as much mouse, Well,

39
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: can't drink as much as fast, Okay, so that's annoying.

40
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 2: I definitely need to come to defend the youth here.

41
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 3: Uh the youth down, well, they don't drink as much alcohol. Yeah,

42
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 3: is their fucking problem.

43
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, here's the thing.

44
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 4: So when I was their age aka broke as absolute shit,

45
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 4: I bought each drink because I knew it.

46
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: I knew all like fucking.

47
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 4: Down to the scent, what every drink was doing to

48
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 4: my fucking bank account because like the fact that I

49
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 4: would be.

50
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: Out, I was like, oh boy, we're fucking doing it. Huh.

51
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 4: And every time I fucking started a tab, I had

52
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,119
Speaker 4: The most buyer's remorse I've ever had in my life

53
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 4: would be like looking at the bill at then and

54
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 4: I go, oh, fuck, bro, I don't have fucking sixty

55
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 4: five dollars to spend on alcohol tonight.

56
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: What the fuck am I doing? So I get it

57
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 2: from that standpoint.

58
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 4: And also I tend to be forgetful when I get

59
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 4: drunk back then, especially so what.

60
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never heard of such a thing.

61
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 4: So I you know, I fucking I've left my card

62
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 4: at the bar more than I would like to remember.

63
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 4: So again, paying each time can help alleviate this problem.

64
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 4: So I still failed to see why people are arising

65
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 4: at this level of like vitriolic commentary. To label it

66
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 4: did like kunko regrettable behavior.

67
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would Uh.

68
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: I used to bring a flask of vodka into the

69
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: bar with me and then to order and then pour

70
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: it poured in as that was the only time that

71
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: I was able to exercise anything approaching restraint because I was,

72
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: uh what's known as a drinking problem. Yeah, and you

73
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: got it. Started out paying for every drink, Great, great idea.

74
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 3: Do that you're able to keep track of it.

75
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: You get in the habit of not leaving your card

76
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: somewhere and then having to go back the next.

77
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 3: Day before it's open. What a nightmare. You see all

78
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: the all the little flies.

79
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: Oh my god, and you realize how sticky the floor

80
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: has been.

81
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: The whole time.

82
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: You're like and like, what we're not open? Like the

83
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: guy who forgot his card? Oh yeah, yeah, you got

84
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: to charge.

85
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: All right, that's fine man, already you didn't realize the

86
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: reason the music is so loud so you can't hear

87
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: your feet sticking.

88
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: To the bar.

89
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 4: But honestly, the person who was so pressed that they

90
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 4: had to tweet about it like this comes off off

91
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 4: as someone It just comes off as someone who's like

92
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 4: existentially dreading the behavior. Well, it just sounds like too

93
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 4: that they dread the moment that they realize they are washed, right,

94
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 4: because the whole thing is like he's coming for them,

95
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 4: Like someone show these children how to go to the bar,

96
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 4: as if you're talking about how to go to the

97
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 4: bathroom or something like.

98
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 2: Can you show them how to go to the bar?

99
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 4: I think anyone that has this much time to label

100
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 4: not opening a tab like with like and being like

101
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 4: this is something we're talking about.

102
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: That's the that's the behavior you want to avoid.

103
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, he's just practicing the fraternity ritual

104
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: hazing mixed in with binge drinking that has never gotten

105
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: anyone in trouble or been a negative And no.

106
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 2: No, and it sounds like I wonder it was. This

107
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 2: was tweeted at six fifty six am, too, Willie. So

108
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: you had a lot of you had a lot of thoughts.

109
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: Man, good, look, I wish I had that restraint when

110
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 1: I was younger.

111
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,119
Speaker 3: Everything would have been better.

112
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, if you if you're doing every drink on

113
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: the tab check out, good for you.

114
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: Thanks, thank you for that two thousand and eight recession,

115
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 4: because it truly truly limited my ability to fucking just

116
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 4: leave earth with substances I had to buy.

117
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: And did a lot of damage O three to eight

118
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: two my solf unfortunately.

119
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well we're here, we're here, We're here, all right.

120
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: Maui is facing a horrifying natural disaster. It's the worst

121
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: natural disaster to hit Hawaii in thirty years. Wildfires have

122
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: just basically engulfed Maui and it's I guess not one

123
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: that I had traditionally associated with the state, But obviously

124
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 1: everything is different now. Walls of flam and fire in

125
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: every direction. Some of the videos are truly horrifying, and

126
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: I just like I had this experience this morning where

127
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: I went to the website Hawaii News Now that was

128
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: you know, linked off of the front page of the

129
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: Drudge Report. You know, it is the top story on.

130
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 3: The Drudge Report. They're linking off to Hawaii News Now.

131
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: And like the page is just absolutely fucking choked with

132
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: like banner ads and like pre roll ads, and like

133
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: just this is something that I've like come to just expect, Right,

134
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: it's just like background noise, just the price of like

135
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: doing business on the Internet. But I guess the I

136
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: think it's you know, the book we talked about on

137
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: Monday's episode, the Ministry for the Future, Like that that

138
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 1: becomes a thing where they like have a more socialists

139
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: Internet where people actually like own their own information and

140
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: you know, just like a bunch of cool ideas where

141
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: you are not a commodity that is constantly being like

142
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: marketed to and.

143
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 2: Not a feeding frenzy of surveillance capitalism.

144
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.

145
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: And so I was just viewing it, you know, as

146
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: we're seeing this horrifying result of climate change happen. It's

147
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: it's both a wildfire and then wins from a nearby

148
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: hurricane combining to do this. It's just it just made

149
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: me realize, I guess again that like, while we take

150
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: it for granted that the Internet is completely.

151
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 3: Broken and fucked, like, it's not normal.

152
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: It's not like like were there is a possibility there

153
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: is a world where when you go to a page

154
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: to get information about an emergency, you don't have to

155
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: like sit through a Farmville ad to watch like videos

156
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: of the newscasters like telling you what to do, or

157
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: like you don't have to like differentiate the article the

158
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: related articles that are actually about the crisis that you

159
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: were trying to survive from.

160
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 3: Like there are one, two, three, four.

161
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: Ten, eleven, eleven video articles that are just like choked,

162
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: like just sprinkled throughout this article. It's like, you know,

163
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: Tommy Chung the horrifying truth about CBD, and it's like

00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: sponsored content about like his CBD right, oh his is better.

165
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: A lot of tonight iss stuff, a lot of it's.

166
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 4: Just you know, it's wild because like if you if

167
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: you're actually scrolling the page, the article is actually finishing

168
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 4: about a third of the way down. If you look

169
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 4: at the scroll bar, on the side. Everything after that

170
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 4: is all just horseshit.

171
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, what if the US had not entered in nineteen

172
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 1: forty one, Like it's a map.

173
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: Say wear a sweatsuit for this reason.

174
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 3: Right, huh, Yeah, it's just clickbait.

175
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: It's just so much bullshit that Yeah, I mean we

176
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: we live truly live in the era of the bullshit economy.

177
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: And like, I think a lot of this isn't news

178
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: to anyone, but it's more of just like a oh,

179
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: it's worth like stopping and like realizing that it's not

180
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: okay to be living in a world where like you know,

181
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: by the way, like nine one one is like down

182
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: across Hawaii. So I'm like people are going to the

183
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: internet like find out what's happening, and uh, you know,

184
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: it's just a complete fucking word salad of marketing bullshit.

185
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,719
Speaker 4: Right where again, we're living in a world like where

186
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 4: we're trying to get vital information that has bearing on

187
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 4: people's safety. I think something like six people have already died,

188
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 4: like in the fire and Maui. And then the just

189
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 4: absurdity of getting like, hey, you want to play this

190
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 4: Hawaiian farm game farm sim game before you can even

191
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 4: actually just get to the fucking news clip to understand

192
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 4: what is happening in your world. Is like a really

193
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 4: really good example of how we're just like.

194
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've just trying to get inform.

195
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: It like doesn't need to be like for obvious reasons

196
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: like there this this is a great example of like

197
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: humans serving capitalism, whereas like it's supposed to be that

198
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: like these tools that we create actually serve us and

199
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: help help us solve problems or help us find out

200
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: reliable information during the course of an emergency.

201
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, anyways, all right, let's.

202
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 2: Take a quick break.

203
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 3: We'll come back.

204
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: We'll talk about suits, and we're back. And I uh,

205
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,199
Speaker 1: I was curious about streaming ratings like that. That was

206
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: something that you remember, we went through a little patch

207
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: during the pandemic where we're like, well, the only thing

208
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: that anyone's doing is streaming things, right, so let's pay

209
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: attention to that. And there was like an upgrade where

210
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 1: like Nielsen started tracking this a little bit more effectively

211
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: and then but you just never hear anybody talk about it,

212
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: and it's it's just weird to me that like nobody

213
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: pays attention to it. Like so there's for instance, we

214
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: looked at the top ten. The number one show by

215
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: I think at least double in terms of minutes streamed

216
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: this week is Suits.

217
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

218
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: Suits was canceled in twenty nineteen, and it's still this

219
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: like massive show. And it's just weird that like one

220
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: of the biggest thing, like biggest works of media entering

221
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: people's brain in our culture is doing so invisibly, you know,

222
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: like I guess it's not invisible because they serve you

223
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: ads like on your Roku or you know, if you

224
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: if your Apple TV is like set to do that

225
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 1: like cycle thing or you're Smart TV, like they'll probably

226
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: show you Suits ads.

227
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 3: But other than that, like nobody like writes.

228
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: About it that there used to be just a whole

229
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: media economy that was like, well, this is a hit

230
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: show and therefore we like the cast will be on

231
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: the cup of a magazine this week or something like that.

232
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

233
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

234
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: And so we do have a producer on the show,

235
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: super producer Bee, who is a Suits watcher, and we

236
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: wanted to ask them on to tell us just what

237
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: what are we missing? What is the world missing not

238
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 1: knowing that Suits is the biggest show since Friends.

239
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 4: And first of all, people don't realize Bee is fucking cool. Okay,

240
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 4: is really cool, and they're a musician, they DJ they

241
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 4: got fucking funky ass tattoos. I'm all that shit cool.

242
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 4: That shit looked like a hurt, but it's about the art.

243
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 4: And then so when Bye, when you said I'm back

244
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 4: on Suits, I was like, what the fuck, babe?

245
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 2: What is fuck? Wait? What is the appeal of Suits? Exactly?

246
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 4: Because I always knew it as like a meme show

247
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 4: that people are like, it's that show. Nobody knows what

248
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 4: the fuck it's about, but bring us into your world, Bay,

249
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 4: what's up with Suits?

250
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 5: All? Right? So I actually watched Suits like when it

251
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 5: first came out, So I was like waiting for the picture,

252
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 5: you know, every week, you know, when I.

253
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 3: Was in school on USA? Is that right?

254
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah? And then you know, everybody forgot about it

255
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 5: because like every show, it always like it's good for

256
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,839
Speaker 5: like two seasons, two threes, and then like it gets

257
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 5: so repetitive, you know.

258
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 2: What I mean.

259
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm not saying this show.

260
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 5: Doesn't do that, but I think you know what's crazy

261
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 5: is I feel like I'm reminiscing for a world before COVID.

262
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 2: Oh okay, and you were watching.

263
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 5: I did, I never really understood, like I guess some

264
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 5: gen I don't know gen Z or the people after that,

265
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 5: like I think they actually romanticize the twenty tens. I

266
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 5: didn't even realize this until I heard about it recently,

267
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 5: and I was like, what the I feelings in twenty

268
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 5: tens were so whack, right, you know?

269
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 2: Right right? Yeah, and not a lot of I don't

270
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 2: remember a lot about it, not almost.

271
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 5: It's like, but it's interesting to watch it as like

272
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 5: a time capsule, you know, because it was it started

273
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 5: in twenty eleven and then it ended right.

274
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 2: Before in twenty nineteen, right, and it's like.

275
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 5: It's just interesting to see kind of the culture, how

276
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 5: different it was because for them, like weed was like

277
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 5: the biggest drug.

278
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 3: That like you know, like Moss was.

279
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 5: Like selling you know in the beginning, and you know

280
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 5: that you know.

281
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 3: That was like so bad character.

282
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's like the main character.

283
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: It suits and he and he suits and he deals

284
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: drugs and the drug he deals those weed.

285
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, when you know, like the Williamsburg Hips your Revolution,

286
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 5: you know, it kind of like it kind of shows

287
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 5: you a bit of that, you know, And so I

288
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 5: don't know, to me, it's almost like this world that

289
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 5: I really wish that we could still be living in,

290
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 5: but I guess it's not anymore. I feel like now

291
00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 5: in the twenty twenties, like things just seem very like

292
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 5: way more saturated in color and just like I don't know,

293
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 5: even like the writing I feel in suits I really

294
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 5: like because it's like you get people kind of like

295
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 5: talking together in direct conversation, and it's more about like

296
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 5: the punchiness of like each line.

297
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: You know.

298
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 5: Now, It's like I feel like I'm watching a show

299
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 5: and I'm like I already have ADHD and it's making

300
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 5: it worse, you know what I mean?

301
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, right, right kind of thing? Got it? Yeah?

302
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: That makes sense?

303
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 6: I mean it.

304
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 4: I feel like a lot of the shows that I

305
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: would sort of just binge watch mouth a gape were

306
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 4: like pure escapism for nostalgia, you know what I mean. Like, yes,

307
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 4: I remember when this show first came out and how

308
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 4: much I liked it. It's this is soothing rather than

309
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 4: looking at our current time.

310
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 2: So well, let me make a cast here.

311
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: Gabrielle mocked, Oh and he's hot, Patrick j Adams, the

312
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: aforementioned Michael Roth, and then Megan Duchess of Sussex is

313
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: how they have it written on the thing.

314
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, piece to that last name, you are now the

315
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 4: Duchess of Sussex. I mean this is all just kind

316
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 4: of again, streaming is so big but also so broken

317
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 4: that Yeah, they're all of these companies are just deficit

318
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 4: spending to make all this content, and what.

319
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: Good for them to have just a news cycle that

320
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: is like, did you guys know suits is massive?

321
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 5: No?

322
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: Because talk about suits because that takes away power from

323
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: them and gives it back to the people who make

324
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: the art.

325
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 2: Yes.

326
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 4: And what they did was they completely shifted gears to

327
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 4: what kind of subscriber growth can you demonstrate month over month?

328
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 4: And that became the language of Wall Street for these

329
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 4: these companies. So when they fuck up on the subscriber part,

330
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 4: that's when you start seeing the punishment come from the shareholders,

331
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 4: right for being like, well, where's my fucking growth? And

332
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,439
Speaker 4: because it's all completely shifted there, it's just become this

333
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 4: like you know, as one anonymous executive said, they believe

334
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 4: it's like quote, it's like the entire system has snapped.

335
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 4: Another person just has described as I think we may

336
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 4: be in the world's biggest ponzi.

337
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: Scheme, right, yeah, because it's all we don't know. We

338
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 2: still don't know what the real numbers are.

339
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 4: Like there's Nielsen ratings that you can you can glean

340
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 4: from people having meters on their TVs, but the networks

341
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 4: seldom or if ever, it's so opaque they can never

342
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 4: get a view into like how much is actually being

343
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 4: consumed or not consumed because I know that's a double

344
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 4: edged sword for sture. That's why they don't really want

345
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 4: to be open about that either because that would either

346
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 4: indicate to the creators they're like, yeah, we owe y'all

347
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 4: a fuck ton of money based on how much this

348
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 4: shit is streaming, or don't fucking let the shareholders find

349
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 4: out that it's fucking a fraction of what they think

350
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,479
Speaker 4: the actual viewing time is or so you know. So

351
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 4: it's uh, and everyone's just kind of caught in the

352
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 4: middle watching bland as it.

353
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 1: Seems like it's also a factor of the thing we

354
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: were talking about with the Internet being broken in there,

355
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: you know there there aren't web like people don't use

356
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: like websites anymore. So like the thing I'm talking about

357
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: where like these people would be on the front of magazines,

358
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: like magazines in theory we're supposed to be replaced by websites,

359
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: but like that whole ecosystem is just completely fucked and

360
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 1: brothers don't exist. So it's just there's like no media

361
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 1: to do the service of being like here's what you

362
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: guys apparently like, and here's more information on the thing

363
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: you like, and like, here's a story about why you

364
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: like it. It's just like that doesn't that that has

365
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: gone away, Like we've just lost media made for people

366
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: and yeah, it's just all like yeah, I mean you

367
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: can find the top ten streaming things here on this

368
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:57,239
Speaker 1: Nielsen website and like that that's basically it.

369
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, and yeah, again, like the whole model just became

370
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 4: for all these studios take our shit off of Netflix,

371
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 4: where we were getting wild ass licensing deals already making millions,

372
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 4: and then putting it on our own platform that we

373
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 4: now have to spend billions to get off the ground

374
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 4: programming original content and then hope this shit works out.

375
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, spoiler alert, it has not.

376
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 4: And now again all of these austerity measures, because a

377
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 4: lot of companies are in over their skis with this

378
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 4: original content, are.

379
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 2: Like, shit, man, we got to figure out how to

380
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: fucking pay people less, make less.

381
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: And I just I think the biggest problem facing the

382
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: world is that entertainment weekly doesn't exist anymore, I think,

383
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: is what I'm getting at. And oh wow, we don't

384
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: need we need more big entertainment weekly to come back

385
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: and tell us all what is cool?

386
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 4: I know, because now it's all digital. You know, we

387
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 4: missed it when you could see the cast of Friends

388
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 4: and being like Millionaires Forever.

389
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: The Lincoln Lawyer that shows number two overall, and like

390
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: that's an original one, that's like Netflix original ip that

391
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, that just doesn't doesn't exist. Like there

392
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: are plenty of streaming shows, like to the Ponzi scheme point,

393
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: there are plenty of streaming shows that might as well

394
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: not exist, right they just like don't they happen. But

395
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: like there's I forget where I was hearing this. Like

396
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 1: somebody was talking about how, oh it was on the

397
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 1: John Gabriis podcast Action Boys. They were talking about how

398
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: like they love address Elba and he is in this

399
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: new thing as like a hostage negotiator on a hijacked plane,

400
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: and like it just didn't like that nobody found.

401
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 3: Out about it. It like might as well not exist.

402
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: It's just yeah, they just happened to find out about it.

403
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: And also when they clicked on it, it was like

404
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: ten episodes. It's like a movie premise stretched over ten episodes.

405
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 6: But yeah, it's I don't know, man, it's it's well

406
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 6: when we are we are in the midst of watching

407
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 6: it correct itself, so it's I don't know, hold on

408
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 6: to your butts.

409
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 2: As Samuel yeah Ackson has so famously.

410
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: Day, I think it makes sense that people are uh

411
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: nostalgic for the twenty tens because I think for a

412
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: while now we're realizing that things have been getting worse

413
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: and worse. Right, I do just want to say one

414
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: quick story about how cool Bay is. One of the

415
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: first team building things that Bay came to was John

416
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: Wick for and wasn't there.

417
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 3: Yeah you missed that.

418
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: But the there's scenes in Berlin that happened that are

419
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: like in the Berlin club scene, and like there's a

420
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: fun cameo of like Bay. Do you want to explain
