Now, I'm gonna run this because 33 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: in two weeks after the one where me and Derek 34 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: just kind of shoot the breeze, I'm gonna talk about 35 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: what the Supreme Court actually decided with Google, and it 36 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: turns out Google might be an old head and they 37 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,239 Speaker 1: don't even know it. You know what I'm saying. They 38 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: have to brink of extinction and they don't know it. 39 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: You feel me? Yeah, buddy, the endling always showing up, 40 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: y'all notice the end anyway, So before we could get 41 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: to that, let's go rewind the clock as to when 42 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: Google actually turned Microsoft into an old head. You know 43 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and how the antitrust laws works, and 44 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: why what the sentencing is, what the DLJ is saying 45 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: Google has to do, and why that's important. That's what 46 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about the next time I talk about this. 47 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: So anyway, here's past me talking about what future me 48 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: is going to talk about in the future, her politics 49 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: for pride. Hey, do y'all still say curved or curbed? 50 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: Like if somebody curbed you, I don't even know if 51 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: it's I don't even know if it's curve or curved. 52 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: But essentially what we mean is maybe I'm my old head. 53 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: What we mean is when you approach a young lady 54 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: and she shut you down, like, oh man, you got curved. 55 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: You know, they just I'm pretty sure it's curved, probably 56 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: like curb your enthusiasm. It's probably it. I don't know 57 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: if there's anything more painful, because most of the time 58 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: for you to get curved, it's usually because you are 59 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: enthusiastic a lot of times is when you're super confident 60 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: in the movie You're finna make now. I can't speak 61 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: for every young man who finally hits his awakening of 62 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: the sex that he's attracted to. And I know mine 63 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: when I was like, wait a minute, I like girls, 64 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: when you have to start building up the bravery to 65 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: actually admit it, or maybe ask this girl to dance 66 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: or sit by her, or maybe even possibly get a 67 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: little kiss on the cheek, you know, just you know, 68 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: it was little boys, you're not really ready for like 69 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 1: full intercourse because we're still children. I remember like rehearsing 70 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: and I have a sister that's six years older than me, 71 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: so I could ask her, like how do I say this? 72 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: You know, what outfits should I wear? Like you know, 73 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: and she was like down to make her little brother, 74 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: like you know, she wanted a little brother to be flying. 75 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: So I could ask her and come up with lines 76 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: and like how do I approach? What do I say? 77 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: Where do I stand? Like how do I I'm nervous, 78 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: I'm scared off for her to offer this little girl 79 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: to giggle and run to her friends and go eh, 80 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: he not even fond, just destroy. It took me three 81 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: weeks to get the courage to say something to or 82 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: just with this girl, to be like h, like that's 83 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 1: the child. Which I don't know if it's everybody's story, 84 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: but you have to understand, like me, who I went 85 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: to schools in neighborhoods that were so diverse where there 86 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: was just as many Filipino and Latino and you know, Chinese, 87 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: there was such as there was so many other communities 88 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: that were at the spaces I was in. Like again, 89 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: I read the demographics. Most of y'all are from Cali 90 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: that listen to this from the San Gabriel Valley. Who 91 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: I was born in South central I say it all 92 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: the time, but I grew up in the San Gavel 93 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: Valley and then I went to high school in the 94 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: Inland Empire, And like so I you experienced so many cultures. 95 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: You're exposed to so many types of girls where black 96 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: dude is just not they tight. This is way too 97 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: long of an intro Anyway, The point I'm trying to 98 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: make is it really hurts to get curved, especially when 99 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: you're really confident. And guess what Google got curved? Hook 100 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: politics y'all all, right, before I go into it, but 101 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: look at like nerds. Bull look is like this, bullook 102 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: is like this, look is like this, but look at 103 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: like this. All right, Well, the darkest of holidays has hit. 104 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: It is the one year anniversary of the attack from 105 00:06:52,240 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: Hamas on Israel, which, in retaliation to such attack, unleashed 106 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: the Kraken towards all of Gaza and extending Palestinian areas. 107 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: Way too many people died. There was a memorial held 108 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: in Israel where they played that last song before at that, 109 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: you know, because the attack happened like one of the 110 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: parts happened during a music festival, and the last song 111 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: that was being played before the attack happened and hostages 112 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: were taken and people were killed, they played that song 113 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: to mark, you know, the one year anniversary of a horrible, 114 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: horrible situation. And from the Israeli perspective, the city is 115 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: torn because you can't argue that that wasn't, you know, 116 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: one of the or maybe if not the greatest terrorist 117 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: attack that they've experienced. And I think, like I'm not 118 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: adding snark to this because it's like, I mean, like 119 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to be real about it. I think, 120 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: how do I say this? Since they've been in their 121 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: mind the little engine that could the whole time, and 122 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: everybody was against them. They felt like their only way 123 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: to be safe is to be the aggressor. And they've 124 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: continued to be the aggressor because they feel like everybody's 125 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: being aggressed to them. So there's a kinship to the 126 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: idea that America has of itself too. You know where 127 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: we say, if you go into war, you're going overseas 128 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: like the attack is over there. Everybody's trying to come 129 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: to get us, but don't nobody want to mess with us, 130 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: because they know won't play around. It only happened once 131 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: and that was a Pearl harbor. We blew up Pole 132 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: Islands after that, So they carried in their psyche that 133 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: type of sort of same vibe. But that is not 134 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: to diminish the atrocities that they feel in their heart 135 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: and the things that had happened, So you mark it right. 136 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: On the other hand, it also marks the beginning of 137 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: the absolute decimation of Gaza, with eleven thousand people dead 138 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: and just a commpletely intenable living situation that has now spread. 139 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: Everybody's fear has spread to Lebanon and Yemen, and now 140 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: Big dog Iran has jumped in. It was what everybody 141 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: that works in peacemaking was hoping wouldn't happen, that we 142 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: would get to a ceasefire to state solution, which clearly 143 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: is the only option. I just don't understand how anybody 144 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: could think any other way that like this is really 145 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: the only option. But with that being said, all the blood, 146 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: all the carnage, all the like, let's make this happen. 147 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: Gaza could not have a sort of moment to even 148 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: breathe to mark the anniversary of this because it's leveled. Yeah, 149 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: I mean there's like where you know, they still running 150 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: for cover and is well not even letting it. They 151 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 1: barely letting aid in, Like we got to fight to 152 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: let aid in. And then with all the carnage and 153 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: it be coming into a regional war, there's a ceasefire 154 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: deal on the table, and then Yahoo won't accept it 155 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: and you still ain't got the hostages. All that blood 156 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 1: and you still ain't got the hostages. So Israel as 157 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: a nation is torn because they're like, fam, uh, can 158 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: we keep our eyes on the prize here? I just 159 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: we just want our loved ones back. What did you 160 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: and ask you to blow the whole like, I ain't 161 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: ask you to blow the whole city up. Well, it's 162 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: just one of our hostages, but what is you? And 163 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: then there's the other half that's like, no, we can't 164 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: letting people live. And then there's the really really small 165 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: dack sect of hyper conservative religious folk within the Israeli 166 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: world that are like, well, it's how we bring the Messiah. 167 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: We gotta control this region or the Messiah ain't coming, 168 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: so like, no, they gotta go. So it's all that 169 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: going on all in one place. The JV team had 170 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: their debate, switching gears here the my dad can beat 171 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: up your dad debate because who cared what the vice 172 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: president think? Because the vice president will really do nothing. 173 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: Now that being said, it was more substantive than any 174 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: of us would have thought. And it's one of those 175 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: things where it's like, be careful what you asked for. 176 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: Y'all asked for civility and substance. What you didn't ask 177 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: for was truth, My niggad, the Trump ticket is getting 178 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: his money's worth. He is jd Vance understood the assignment. 179 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: The assignment was to sanitize everything that Trump stands for, 180 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: and even to the point of like almost like the 181 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: opposite where it's like, now, we ain't say that. And 182 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 1: then when the mic slipped up and said, well, you 183 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: weren't supposed to lie fact checked us a you revealed 184 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: your cards, big dog. But JD. Vance absolutely one hundred 185 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: percent understood the assignment and you cannot take that from him. 186 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: He was slick, he was likable, and he didn't go 187 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: on the full attack. They did the whole I agree 188 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: with what we're supposed to be doing heat and he 189 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: took all the smart Now, don't get me wrong, I 190 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 1: personally like dudes like that will pulse me that are 191 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: too polished in every like that, I'm like, you're clearly 192 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: hiding something. Anyway, everything was going great until this man 193 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: could not answer the January sixth question, Now, did Trump 194 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: lose the election? Elect question? Now, the thing is, that's 195 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: in some senses it's a gotcha question because we all 196 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: know that man can't answer that question, Like what y'all 197 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: expect this man to say? Yeah, now, Trump tripping on 198 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: that one, but we gonna win this one though. He 199 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: can't say he can't do that. Y'all know he can't 200 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: do that. That man can't get up there and tell 201 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: the truth like on Boomdocks. You better learn how to 202 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: lie like me. You can't be telling the truth to 203 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: these people. You got a lie, that'd be the end 204 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: of his job. Get Trump lose a twenty twenty election 205 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: like Nigga does, Like you can't say that. You gotta 206 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: be like, look, dude, we're looking forward. But didn't y'all, 207 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: and then proceeded to talk backwards. Boy, I tell you man, 208 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: I love it here. All right, let's get back to 209 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: it like this. All right. So last year we did 210 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: an episode that was called Get Your Weight Up, and 211 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: I taught y'all about antitrust and monopolies and the situation 212 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: Google was facing. And it was over search engines and ads, 213 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: showing how this is just a rand new world where 214 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: what Google is facing, especially when it comes to like 215 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: search engines. You had suit being brought to them by 216 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: like you know, bing and like ass jeeves. That was like, 217 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: you're creating a monopoly. I can even giggle with the 218 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: idea of like being because it's like, bro, no one 219 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: uses bing. Google's a verb like it's a company, but 220 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: it's also a verb. You google something. They're like, you're 221 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: a monopoly. They're like, listen, I'm not like bing is 222 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: not my competition. Microsoft, a'm my competition. Full Chat, GBT 223 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: is TikTok Amazon, I am not competing with you other 224 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: browsers and search engines. Y'all lave y'all need to get 225 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: y'all weight up. And the argument was in this antitrust case, 226 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: which I will back up and explain the term monopoly 227 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: or antitrust and then give you a context. So their 228 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: argument was, you say, we're cornering the market, We're making 229 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: it impossible, but y'all could just get y'all weight up. 230 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: I don't know why you mad at us for making 231 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: a superior product. Now, the last time you googled something, 232 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you got frustrated because Google's trying to 233 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: do the AI thing again to keep up with that GBT, 234 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: and so the searches have been I've had to like 235 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: retype in what I'm looking for multiple times because I'm like, 236 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: this used to be super easy. So in my anecdotal opinion, 237 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: it's gotten worse as they've tried to bring it AI. 238 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: But the point is the case was do you have 239 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: a monopoly on search and ads? And when we talked 240 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: about it at first, it was being brought to the 241 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: Department of Justice. Well, they have decided, yes, you have 242 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: a monopoly. It's not fair, and you need to break 243 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: it up. Break it up, break it up, break it up, 244 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: break it up, break it up, break it up, break 245 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: it up. Yeah, y'all, ratchet, y'all know that's all y'all 246 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: got to break up your company. Now. The reason why 247 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: this was so big obviously because Google's big, but it's 248 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: because it harkens back to one that happened in nineteen 249 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: ninety eight Microsoft. So here's what we're gonna do. I'll 250 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: gonna explain to you what a monopoly is. And if 251 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: you've ever sold drugs you already know, which means that 252 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: we have to talk about capitalism and the version of 253 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: capitalism that America says they love and believe in. How 254 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: you protect that imaginary version of capitalism, Why an antitrust 255 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: is what it is, and why the government steps in, 256 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: what happened with Microsoft, and how that informed this Google decision, 257 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: and then what Google's gonna have to do. All right, 258 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: but I swear to you, just like the very foundational truth, 259 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 1: the axiom of truth that this show is, you already 260 00:17:47,400 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: notice stuff, all right? Next, Okay, so capitalism oftentimes we 261 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: have because we live in the world we live in, 262 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: we have conflated the idea of capitalism with just economics 263 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 1: that if you sell something, it's capitalism. You have to 264 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: remember capitalism as a concept was invented. Now. The idea 265 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: of trading some sort of commerce for goods and services 266 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: is as old as puka shells, is as old as 267 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: when we moved from just bartering to yeah, there is 268 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: currency and the currency and I'm giving you this currency, 269 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: and you're going to return back to me a good 270 00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: in service. The institution that we talk about that includes 271 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:07,239 Speaker 1: a supply chain where the product is being created in 272 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: multiple different factories that's being cobbled together into one piece. 273 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: The system that says each of these people that work 274 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: in these factories is indust your revolution type situation that 275 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: puts like if you're going to take a pencil, the 276 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 1: eraser tip is made somewhere else, but that place is 277 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: really only getting raw materials from another place, and those 278 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: raw materials are being sent there, and then the people 279 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: carrying that stuff in people that transfer it in the 280 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 1: truck is a whole other company who brings this raw 281 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 1: materials to this place, and then that place has to 282 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: buy the equipment from a whole other company who makes 283 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: the equipment for you to process this thing to make 284 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 1: the eraser tip. But still, if you're the pencil company, 285 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: you have a contract with them with a wood company 286 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: who's got a contract with a timber company who's got 287 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: a contract with a lead company, or a graphite company. 288 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: You just the people that put it all together. And 289 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: then it's a whole other marketing team that just was 290 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: hired by the brand name of the pencil to put 291 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: it all in one place. And then you got to 292 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: hire a shopify right, a three pl and all of 293 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: these people have employees, and the price of that pencil 294 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: is cobbled together in the way that makes sure, or 295 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: supposed to make sure that everybody, every company that was 296 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: involved in this all gotta pay their employees, bring that 297 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: all together, get it on the shelf, and then they 298 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: charge you a dollar ninety nine per pencil. Now, if 299 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: you're making one million pencils, it may not have cost 300 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: you the company they selling them for a dollar ninety nine. 301 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: It cost the company, I don't know, hopefully if they're 302 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: doing it right, two cents. So the cost of the 303 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: pencil you hear all them companies all had to make 304 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: their money. But if you make enough of them, you 305 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: can lower the cost that it takes to make the 306 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: pencil so that when it gets to the consumer, you 307 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: only paying two dollars. And at two dollars, you know, 308 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: multiplied by one hundred thousand consumers, it's supposed to be 309 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: able to make sure that everybody's happy and everybody wins. Now, 310 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: the capitalism that we exist in is to say, okay, 311 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: best product at the best price wins. So if somebody 312 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: got a better pencil and they only charging a dollar fifty, 313 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: the idea is, damn you made it cheaper and better, 314 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 1: so everybody's gonna buy that. So then what do you do. 315 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: You have to figure out how to make your pencil 316 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 1: better and cheaper. Hopefully you could charge a dollar twenty five, 317 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: right all the way down to where get this the 318 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: term of elasticity, to where the product is cheap enough 319 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: to make to where everybody makes money. There's a number. 320 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: Now you have to enter the concept of branding. Okay, 321 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: I work. I'm a brand ambassador for a company called 322 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: me Right, y'all know the people that make my mugs 323 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: and the poor Gami's all the coffee stuff is this 324 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: company called mer Now. Mir got a lot of clients too, 325 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: And Mir was telling us, telling me about one of 326 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 1: their clients for which I will not name names. And 327 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: because I ain't trying to worry, I ain't trying to 328 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: mess up my money. This company is able to sell 329 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: things at an absurd price point. But we looking at it. 330 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: But my man and Mir was looking at it. It 331 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: was like, Okay, you're sourcing. There's no way in the 332 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: world you're sourcing at a different place than everybody else's 333 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: or you're sourcing at the same place. And he was 334 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: like and the owner or the buyer was like, yeah, yeah, 335 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: source is the same place as as our competition. They 336 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: charged three ninety nine, we charge eight ninety nine. It's 337 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: called branding. So just the power of the branding, the 338 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: fact that your name is on it. Let me give 339 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: y'all a little game about Kirkland and Costco brand. Now, 340 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 1: Costco ain't paying me for this, but I wish they 341 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 1: was the Kirkland brand, liquor, the tequila, the whiskey, all 342 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: that that they got in there. It's they bought a 343 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: recipe from I believe it's ego rare like makers mart 344 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: I believe they're whiskey is makers market. They just bought 345 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: a recipe from them and just white labeled it. It's 346 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: actually very it's very good whiskey. It's just named Kirklind brilliant. 347 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: So if you smart, rather than buying the label name, 348 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: you getting the same product. It's just cheaper. So now 349 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: you take when you talk about a national economy, you 350 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: take all the pieces that we're talking about, if we're 351 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: talking about again capitalism, You take every person that is 352 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: on all them jobs, how much money they make, how 353 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: much money is coming into the company, how much money 354 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: that company is spending, how much money the people that 355 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: work at that company are spending right the products for 356 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: which they buy, how much then products cost to make, 357 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: and how much profit those products produce. How much of 358 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: that money is going out to other countries. How much 359 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: of that money is coming back into the consumers pockets, 360 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: because once the company makes money, the people that work 361 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: at that company all get paid and then they buy 362 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: other products, which brings the money back. So you take 363 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: the totality of all that, the combination of all those 364 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: factors all trying to get you to spend your dollar 365 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: with them, them competing with each Other's called free market capitalism. 366 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: All of that is capitalism. And what's capitalism's goal is, 367 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: if you haven't figured this out yet, the greatest amount 368 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 1: of profit for the least amount of cost. Now, how 369 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: do you pull that off? If that is the goal 370 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 1: of capitalism, will you cut costs? Where do you cut costs? 371 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: Most of the time, your highest cost is your employees. 372 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: It's payroll. That's your highest cost. So you pay your 373 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: workers at least as possible. Why did America becomes up 374 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: a superstar, so a superpower so early? Well, they didn't 375 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: pay they workers at all. It was called slavery. You 376 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: was only paying for the raw materials. You only had 377 00:24:58,560 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: to pay for the land. You had to pay for 378 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: the work. Of course, you gonna get rich by no 379 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 1: stretch of the imagination. Is the goal of capitalism itself? 380 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: Human flourishing. Now that might be the person that functions 381 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 1: within the system. You might want to approach this in 382 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: a way that centers humanity in the sense that you're 383 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: paying your workers well. You're ethically sourcing, so that means 384 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 1: you're setting a price point that allows for you to 385 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: pay workers well, to treat the environment well. You have 386 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: things like certified b Corps. At some point I'm bring 387 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: Mahomie brian On here to talk about what it means 388 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: to be an ethical capitalistic company, which some would argue 389 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: is impossible. I might agree with you, but again, like 390 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: I say all the time, you know, she might as 391 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: well swim be as truthful as possible. Like I said, 392 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: we're all on a big corporation. This is iHeart media. 393 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: Like it's not be delusional, you know what I'm saying. 394 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: Corporation guys, So we're not delusional. But there's a way 395 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: to be as ethical as you poss can. But that's 396 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: not the goal of capitalism. That might be the goal 397 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: of the person. There might be a advancement of a 398 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: society to where, yeah, well multiple people now have jobs now, 399 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: which means like the way of life is just better 400 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 1: across the board for everybody because now everybody's employed. But 401 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: one would argue that, like we weren't starving before we 402 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 1: had jobs, Like before there was a factory, before you 403 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: bought your food at a grocery store, you just grew 404 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: your own. Every For most of human history, people just 405 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: had like small gardens like where you just and you 406 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: just traded back and forth where it's like, okay, we 407 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 1: grow squashed. Well, I'm gonna walk across the street go 408 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: visit another family over there in that other village. I 409 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: know they grow spinach. Well, you know what I'm saying. 410 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: I'mnna bring them some squash. They bring me some spiniches. 411 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: It's fine. Like we all we were all right before 412 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: we had to like work for like cotton pieces of 413 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 1: dead men to turn in for our waters, to work 414 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,919 Speaker 1: in our houses because somebody bought the lake and owns 415 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: the clouds. I don't know if you notice. You can 416 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: own the clouds, you can own the land rights and 417 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: all of the sky and atmosphere above it. Because capitalism 418 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: is crazy right now anyway, I haven't even talked about 419 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 1: antitrust yet. This is absurd. So all that to say 420 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: in our system, at least in America, we tried to 421 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: set up this situation to say that if we keep 422 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: this institution pure enough, it will police itself. And how 423 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: you do that? Because people really make their decisions by 424 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: they purchases. People buy what they want. And if you 425 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: charge too much, but your brand is trash and we 426 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 1: don't believe you, people won't stop buying it that's a 427 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: price elasticity. What's the highest you could charge before people 428 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: are going to be like, all right, you don't lost 429 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 1: your mind. This brand ain't worth it, which is how 430 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,959 Speaker 1: you gain the system. You know what I'm saying. It's like, 431 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: you make your brand worth it, but you charge as 432 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: high as you can, not as cheap as you can. 433 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: You take somebody like arizona Ic, they charge as little 434 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: as they can. That's their brand though for them it work. 435 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: But anyway, we we as in the royal weed, not me. 436 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: But the concept is you need to have competition in 437 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: the market. You can't just be the only person selling 438 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: a thing. You can't. You can defeature competitors by having 439 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: a better product at a better price point, but you 440 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: can't just box them out because when you box them out, 441 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: when you're the only option, there is no reason for 442 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: you to not price gouch and the quality of your 443 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: product doesn't have to be great because you the only people. 444 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: That's what I mean by drug dealer. You trying to 445 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: be the only connect. If you the only connect, you've 446 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: charged the people whatever you won't they hooked on the product. 447 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: You could step on your product if you want too, 448 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: because what they gonna do where you go go, I'm 449 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: your only option. I used to feel like that with 450 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: gas prices because I'm like, what am I gonna do? 451 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: There's no difference to me between mobile and arco. I 452 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: still have to go to the thing, or I don't 453 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: go anywhere like I I now. As a side note, 454 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: I went to Ryanfest this past weekend at the Coliseum 455 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: and I took the train and I was like, no, native, 456 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: nobody I know takes trains because it just don't go 457 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: enough places. But this time it was like I didn't 458 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: have to switch once, and I was like, bro, why 459 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: don't every time I take the train? Every time I 460 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: take the metro in La, I'll be like, why don't 461 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: I do this? So yeah, maybe there is an alternative anyway. 462 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: So being mad over gas prices, I'm like, what do what? 463 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:38,959 Speaker 1: You're gonna not gonna fill up your tank? What you're 464 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,479 Speaker 1: gonna You're gonna not go to work? Like I felt 465 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: so hopeless. I'm like, this is a monopoly, you monopolize. 466 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: So the idea was in the anti trust law. I 467 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: don't know why they call it that, they just do. 468 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: Antitrust law is saying we do not believe in the 469 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: American economics system that it is legal or even in 470 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: the spirit of who we are as a nation, that 471 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: any one company should have a have a monopoly over 472 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: a business. There needs to be competition, meaning there needs 473 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: to be other companies that are pushing you, because what 474 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: that does for the consumer is it means we're getting 475 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: the best products because y'all are fighting against each other 476 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: for our dollars. They're not concerned with just one company success. 477 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,959 Speaker 1: We're talking overall success of the entire country because they 478 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: looking at it again as the economy as capitalism capital 479 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: c not just are you doing all right? We mean 480 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: the whole country. So the whole country got to win, 481 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: which means that I don't really care if your one 482 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: company is doing I we need a whole thing to work. 483 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,479 Speaker 1: In theory, because you could go get the off brand stuff. 484 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: You grew up like us. Oh man, there was cheerios 485 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: and then there was multo meal. There was tasty os. 486 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: You feel me, I was like them is nasty. I 487 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: used to get so mad when my mom brought that 488 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: off brand Cereal. I wanted the name brand Cereal. It 489 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: was cheaper, but it was but that ain't like that 490 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: ain't work Now what that meant was that made cheerios. 491 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: Because my mom sometimes was like, I ain't buying the cheerios. 492 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: It costs too much. So that means the cheerios because 493 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: there's such thing as multo meal and tastios, fruit rings 494 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: not fruit loops, because those things existed. That meant that, 495 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,239 Speaker 1: like Yo, Cheerios, gotta work harder to make sure that 496 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: they products they bomb and at the price point is 497 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: something that we willing to pay. That's why there's one 498 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: hundred different car companies while they fighting for our attention. 499 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: Why everybody racing to get an electric car like thing 500 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: with Tesla's they was just there first. Well, actually Saturn 501 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: was there first. You should see a documentary called Who 502 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: Killed the Electric Car? Anyway, but they not the only ones. 503 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: They couldn't. They couldn't get to electric car and shut 504 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: the door. There's companies like Rivian who they trucks are amazing, 505 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: you know, But there's other companies. There are other people 506 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: making electric cars. So it's like, yo, get your weight up, 507 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: like do something great. Now, it could become a monopoly 508 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: if they do this. They take all the road mapping 509 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 1: that they've done with their self driving, get it perfect 510 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: and then make sure every a new electric car has 511 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: to buy their software for the road mapping of self driving. 512 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: Like if every new electric car had Tesla's software in 513 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: there from for their self driving cars, which right now 514 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: would be a disaster. But if they continue to develop 515 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: what they got and then they box out everybody else, 516 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: it wouldn't matter if it's a disaster or not, because 517 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: every car comes equipped with their software. That would be 518 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: a monopoly, to which they could argue, I mean, you're 519 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: welcome to uninstall it and put your own one in there. 520 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 1: Do you know how to uninstall software on your car? 521 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: Are you going to Google it? Think about the dial 522 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: up modem sounds your aim user name. We all got sidekicks, 523 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: but no, I don't even know if we got sidekick 524 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: It was in pagers there. You know what I'm saying, 525 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 1: you about to have a sidekick, and boyd, the early 526 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: Internet feels like caveman energy. So Microsoft, led by Bill Gates, 527 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: was young, scrappy startup. You know, you gotta remember like 528 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: at this point McIntosh, those was just the computers in 529 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: the school lab. Like when you went to the computer 530 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: lab at school, there was these funny look at things 531 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,239 Speaker 1: that we just had to learn when we did our 532 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: typing classes, you know, you just did it on that. 533 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: So Microsoft at the time was developing Windows, right, so 534 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: Windows Night, you know, Windows ninety five and that's that, 535 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: which was the operating system, which you guys know already. 536 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 1: And then Microsoft Office so spreadsheet, you know, PowerPoint, Microsoft 537 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: Word and everything that comes just Microsoft, like just Microt's Windows, 538 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: like it's Microsoft what they started doing because Bill Gates 539 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: ain't dumb, is he was taken over while while while 540 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: Apple and them was working towards school and fun and 541 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: stuff like that, Microsoft was taken over the corporate world 542 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: and every company, every you know work computer was a 543 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: Windows and Microsoft Office. And then eventually once we hit 544 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: Windows ninety five, you know that whole like you know, 545 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: the the Apple like you know sessions where they launched 546 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: new products, like Windows invented that like that was Microsoft, 547 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 1: Like it was just goofy. Even the user video, the 548 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 1: training video for how to use Microsoft Office and Windows 549 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 1: ninety five had, believe it or not, actors from Friends 550 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: from the show Friends was on it. Jay Leno did 551 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 1: the monologue like it was the biggest thing in the 552 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: world because it was just change. You gotta remember this 553 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,479 Speaker 1: is where tech was. And what else that they did 554 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: that was amazing was if you bought a laptop, you 555 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: gotta remember there was a million different types of laptops. 556 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: You remember HP, you remember ACER, You could get any 557 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: type of just like before the iPod there was zooms. 558 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: Like there was a million different other products and then 559 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 1: somebody takes over and just wins. The thing. What Microsoft 560 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: did was they cut a deal with PC and laptop 561 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: companies and was like, yo, so let us be yo 562 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 1: default operating system. So if anybody wants to use another 563 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: operating system an OS like a Macintosh, you got to 564 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 1: take all that stuff off and put a new one in. Now. 565 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: Mcintos was smart enough to say, no, our operating system 566 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: works on our products only, but set that to a 567 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: side right now. Microsoft was like, cool, y'all can have 568 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: your own little weird egg shape computers will take over 569 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: every other computer on Earth. And that's kind of what 570 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: they did. They just cut a deal and it was 571 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: just like yeah, dude, like yo, if you're selling a laptop, 572 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: you're selling a desktop. It's got Microsoft operating system already installed. 573 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: So we already got a deal. So we didn't even 574 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 1: got to sell it to the consumers. It's already sold 575 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: to the manufacturer. Kind of brilliant. I mean, why wouldn't 576 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: you do that? Now while this is happening, something else 577 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: was being invented, a little thing called the World Wide Web, 578 00:36:39,440 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 1: The Internet was being made around this time. Sorry about that. Next, Okay, 579 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: so now that the Internet's being made, you know you 580 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: gotta buy your modems. What nobody thought about, because you 581 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: have to remember nobody knew what the Internet was, is 582 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 1: you have to have a way to get on there. Browser. No, 583 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: you need a browser. It's so stupid, Like it's so stupid. 584 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: I have to point that out right. And then because 585 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: there was no separate apps for your emails or for 586 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: there was no apps, the apps were Microsoft. You need 587 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: a browser to get on the Internet. The browser, there 588 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 1: was a lot of different types. There's Navigator, there was Netscape, 589 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: and at the time that's all the Netscape made. They 590 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: were the only browsers. I mean, it was fine, Like 591 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: what else did we know you got on the Internet 592 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 1: with on a Netscape browser? But you of little AOL 593 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: disc which we're gonna talk about it in a second. 594 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,720 Speaker 1: But your little AOL disc popped it in. You clicked 595 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 1: the disc and then it would throw the netscate like 596 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,840 Speaker 1: you just that was the only how you opened the 597 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: Internet was the browser. Of course, now we you know, 598 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: we got Chrome, Firefox, Safari, like we got those things. 599 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,399 Speaker 1: You gotta remember, like we didn't none of those things 600 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: they we didn't know what those things meant, Like none 601 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: of those things existed. Netscape was how you got to 602 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 1: the internet. Bill Gates ain't stupid. He was like, Yo, 603 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: this the future. We need a hold up, we need 604 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: a browser. And his browser was called Internet Explorer. That's 605 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: how you got on the Internet. His browser was trash right, 606 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: because they was too busy making too many different things. 607 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: They was making a laptopser was making office, they was 608 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: making Windows. It was making all these different things that 609 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: they didn't really make browsers. But he's not stupid. He 610 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,439 Speaker 1: knew that this was the future. So the browser got 611 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: better and better and better. And then he realized, like, 612 00:38:56,640 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 1: wait a minute, I have a million vendors I work with. 613 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: Every laptop already has my product in it. Stupid, why 614 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: don't I bundle Internet Explorer with it? A matter of fact, 615 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: I'll throw an Internet Exploor free. It just comes with 616 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 1: it comes with Microsoft. It comes with Windows, Windows is 617 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: already on every laptop. I'll just it's so stupid, like, duh, 618 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,760 Speaker 1: I don't even have to sell it. I'm already nobody. 619 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: Can you name another word processing? What's the Mac with numbers? 620 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: Adobe pages? I'm saying, even now, we don't use it. 621 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: Maybe you write in Google Docs, which we're gonna get 622 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: to later, but nobody writes it like it's it's you 623 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: use word almost two decades right, like you what else 624 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: is there? So they were like, duh, let's just add 625 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: our product. Let's just add Explorer to every laptop. Obviously 626 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: netscapes like well, wait a day a minute, bro, are 627 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: you serious? So you're just gonna sell the product for free?

So they wrote a letter to 631 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice like yo, fam, I can't like, 632 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,919 Speaker 1: can't nobody compete with this?

I don't want to 652 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 1: get into the like operating system business, like we make 653 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: an Internet browser and you're just giving yours away for 654 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: free and even if people don't want it, ah, which 655 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 1: is where we get what has to do with Google. 656 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: Even if people don't want it, it just comes with 657 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: the lap so of course, like just the psychology of 658 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 1: it is like, well, this is the one that come 659 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: with it. So like why would I go out of 660 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: my way unless I'm a tech geek, why would I 661 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,359 Speaker 1: go out of my way? That's just it come with it. 662 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: We don't know enough about the Internet to have a 663 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 1: preference about it. We don't know about incognito like that 664 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 1: stuff don't exist no more or yet, So what difference 665 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 1: does it make? All right, let's Internet Explorer. And it 666 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: makes sense to us because it was like or to 667 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: the it made sense to the consumer because it's like, well, 668 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: it's made from the same company that when I open 669 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: the laptop, that's how it runs. They was like, yo, 670 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: this is unjust like this ain't They can do whatever 671 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: they want. And I remember gather the browser was trashed, 672 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: like it wasn't it wasn't that good of a browser, 673 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 1: like it just like what do you? I don't know 674 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 1: what I can I mean? And they had no incentive 675 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 1: on making it better per se, because they don't already 676 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: sold the product completely. They didn't already made day money 677 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 1: off off windows and off office, so there's no like 678 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: you've cornered the market. There's no there's there's you. No 679 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 1: one can compete with you. So they brought that case 680 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: to the Department of Justice. Netscape did so Netscape bring 681 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,359 Speaker 1: brings brings a case to the Department of Justice. They 682 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: was like, just like I just explained, like, yo, this 683 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 1: is a monopoly dog, Like there's nothing we could do 684 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: about it. Like I mean, what we're we gonna do? 685 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 1: It's already on your laptop. I bet you open your door, 686 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: you get a new computer today. Bet you it's already there. 687 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: Like how do I compete with that? Like that's not 688 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 1: what am I supposed to do? They bring in Microsoft 689 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: to be like okay, well and this is like legendary, 690 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: like so Bill Gates and them and Microsoft come in 691 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 1: and Microsoft was just like okay, that's funny. Wait what 692 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 1: Wait are y'all serious? Old up? This is no way 693 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: in the world you're serious right now? What is you? 694 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 1: What you're saying is absolutely ridiculous. Let me get this straight. Wait, 695 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,919 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, hold hold on, let me get 696 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 1: this straight. We made a product, we made smart business moves. 697 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: We used our connections, we developed a new product. We 698 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: took our own product, bundled it with our other own 699 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:30,280 Speaker 1: product and use the connections that we took years to develop, 700 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: and you saying that's a problem. What you mean, like, 701 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: what is the problem? You can't possibly be or you're 702 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: so we're smart, you're punishing me for beist? What are 703 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 1: you talking to You're saying this is anti capitalists? I 704 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: don't understand. So should our products up? Should we not 705 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: try what you want us to? Not make money? What 706 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 1: are you talking about? This is absurd? Fuck? You mean 707 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 1: we made a product that we hustled. I don't understand 708 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: telling them fools to get their weight up. Ain't nothing 709 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 1: stopping you from finding a computer. You could approach them 710 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: with the same contract we approached them with, get your 711 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: weight up. I don't understand we approach these people, We 712 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 1: approach these manufacturers. They could have said no. They said yes, 713 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? You want me 714 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 1: to tell the consumers don't buy our product? What are 715 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: you talking about? Absolutely ridiculous was Microsoft's argument. The problem 716 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: was they just walked in, super smug and super arrogant, 717 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 1: and they were just like I'm saying, like we smarter 718 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: than everyone. It was our fault. We're smarter than everybody else. 719 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: Apartment just ain't like that. They ain't like your little attitude. 720 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 1: They asked them very very direct questions like yo, do 721 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: you remember this email? They pulling up emails where them 722 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: Foods was talking this is the first time that was 723 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 1: like a part of like because remember emails just now 724 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 1: were born, pulling up emails where they were like knife 725 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: the Baby like talking about like really we're trying to 726 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 1: kill Netscape, like that's our goal, Like we're actually trying 727 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 1: to get like just cutthroat like Silicon Valley like og Like, no, 728 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 1: we're actually trying to kill kill it. They was like, yo, 729 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,400 Speaker 1: you remember this email? He was like no, Like you 730 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 1: don't remember the one you just replied He's like no, 731 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 1: I remember it. It was just a jerk about it. 732 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 1: Like they were like, hey, did you have any concern 733 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: about any other companies? He was like what, I don't 734 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: understand the question. It was like what what don't you understand? 735 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: He's like, what do you mean by concern? I don't 736 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: know what you mean by that? And they were like 737 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 1: do you know what concern means? Like I know what 738 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 1: it means. I don't know what you mean by that. 739 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: It was like, sir, do you okay? Just this like smug, 740 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 1: I'm smarter than you. I'm ten steps ahead of you. 741 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: Just it just turned everybody out, but they're Ultimately their 742 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 1: point was, Okay, dude, you can't punish us because their 743 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 1: product sucks like that can't be that can't possibly be 744 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: our fault. We're good at business. This is what happened. 745 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: Department of Justice was like, no, that's a monopoly, y'all 746 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 1: gotta break this company up because the straw that broke 747 00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: the camera back was caring office and windows with Explorer. 748 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 1: That's the part that did it because it's like you've 749 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: made now nobody has any other options. That's the same 750 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 1: example I was given with Tesla, because the point is, 751 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: on general principle, consumers are supposed to have options. And 752 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: the argument is having options keeps everybody in check, right, 753 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 1: because if you have options, that's going to force you 754 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 1: to make the better product. And if you baking the 755 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 1: better product, that make all of America look good. Consumers 756 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,280 Speaker 1: are happy, money's flowing, right. That's the argument. And again 757 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: using the Tesla as an example, like I just said, 758 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:38,839 Speaker 1: right now, then I just say that I'm sorry. I'm 759 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 1: just talking if every electric car in the future, if 760 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: you want to do self driving mode, you have to 761 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 1: use this because it's the default setting. And this gives 762 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:53,839 Speaker 1: Tesla no incentive to like they could charge every car 763 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,880 Speaker 1: company whatever they want, because who else you're gonna go to, 764 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 1: which means that that is going to raise the prices 765 00:46:58,000 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: for all of our cars, which means it's going to 766 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: rate the price for chips and all this good stuff. 767 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 1: You're just like, there's no like, this doesn't help nobody. 768 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 1: This just makes you by yourself rich, and all of 769 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 1: us got to suffer by it. So that's the theory. 770 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,920 Speaker 1: Nobody's happy with that except for y'all. And we just 771 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: decided as a nation back in the seventeen hundreds that 772 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 1: we wasn't gonna be like that in theory. Now, what 773 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:28,800 Speaker 1: they told them that they had to do was break 774 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: the company up. You have to put windows in one 775 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 1: place as one company, in office as another company. Is 776 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,359 Speaker 1: that how you understand Microsoft? Of course not, because that 777 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 1: didn't happen. Essentially, what they did was just they paid 778 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: the fines, they did what they had to do, and 779 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 1: then they just promised to not be jerks. This is 780 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:56,760 Speaker 1: really really ain't nothing to happen. So ultimately nothing changed. 781 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: Netscape ended up selling to AOL. Microsoft just had this 782 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: ruling stand that they were operating as a monopoly. But 783 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 1: since God is good and just when last time you 784 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 1: opened then Internet Explorer browser. Now, this is what the 785 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 1: Department of Justice was considering when they looked at this 786 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: Google case. Now let's talk about specifically the ruling. Now, 787 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 1: remember Google, the company's called alphabet. But whatever reason, the 788 00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:02,960 Speaker 1: ruling was that they illegally monopolized the search engine market. 789 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 1: Now and here here here's how they did it. Now, 790 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 1: they did it the same way Microsoft did it, in 791 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 1: the sense that you just if you're a software company, duh, 792 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 1: make deals with hardware companies. So what Google did was like, 793 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:22,319 Speaker 1: I don't care if you using Chrome. You could if 794 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 1: even if you use Safari, whatever phone you got, when 795 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 1: you open it, make a deal with us where you 796 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: automatically your search engine goes to Google. When the last 797 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,280 Speaker 1: time you said I'm gonna bing something, I'm gonna ask 798 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 1: Jeeves something, No, you google it. So they made deals 799 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 1: with phonemakers and other hardware folks to be like, look, 800 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,399 Speaker 1: just let us be your default browser. Now you all 801 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,759 Speaker 1: know you could go into your phone, you could go 802 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 1: into your settings and say like I want this other 803 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 1: thing to be the default. But who's gonna do that? 804 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 1: Some people do, like some of y'all folks who just 805 00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 1: are like anti iPhone because you believe in free. You 806 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 1: want to Android, which is just another company, Like I 807 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 1: don't understand how y'all don't understand that. But your belief 808 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,400 Speaker 1: is you want to be able to customize it in 809 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,600 Speaker 1: the way that you want to customize it because Apple 810 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: tell you what to do. And one of the things 811 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 1: that Apple tell you to do is like it's automatically 812 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: going to go to a Google. Now with that being 813 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:25,840 Speaker 1: automatically your search engine in them gathering a trillion kajillion 814 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:32,399 Speaker 1: megakad billion probably flowbally fillion megabits of information on us. 815 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 1: They can sell ad spaces. So if you are a 816 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: person like me who make they live in online, I 817 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,800 Speaker 1: mean you have to you have to use the Google market, 818 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 1: you have to use their ad spaces, you have to 819 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 1: do search engine optimization, you have to be able to 820 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 1: show up in their ad revenue space because that's where 821 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 1: everybody at Why the hell would you buy an ad 822 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 1: at bing? What is that gonna do for you? And 823 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 1: if and since they the only people in town, they're 824 00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 1: the only people that it really makes sense to spend 825 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,319 Speaker 1: your money on. They could charge you whatever they want. 826 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 1: Let me tell you why Terraform cobrew wasn't on Amazon 827 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: because I would lose two dollars per can like I would. 828 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 1: You're like, I would be paying them like there's no 829 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: But at the same time, Terraform cobrew out of money. 830 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 1: If you went to the website, it ain't no coffee 831 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,880 Speaker 1: there because I'm out of money. You uner see what 832 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying, like they make it where I mean, what 833 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 1: are your other options? That's that phrase, like what's my 834 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: other option? That is a monopoly. Now what Google argued 835 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 1: was the same thing and Microsoft argued, which was like, fam, 836 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 1: I'm sorry for being good at my business, but people 837 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: can do whatever they want. We just happened to try 838 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 1: to give people an off or they came to use. Now, 839 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: what was interesting this time was the Supreme Court brought 840 00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 1: up not just at this is and o's. It wasn't 841 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 1: just business and like nerdery around the law. They brought 842 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 1: up psychology. And it's this concept called the psychology of 843 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: the default. No, no, no, let me say it right, 844 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 1: the power of default. Now you and I I don't 845 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 1: even have to explain that you understand when something is 846 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:25,720 Speaker 1: just your default setting, you just after a while because 847 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 1: something just becomes so normal you don't even think about 848 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: that there are other alternatives, like you'd have to go 849 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 1: out of your way to do that. That's the default, 850 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:38,560 Speaker 1: And what they were arguing is that is proof of 851 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 1: a monopoly in our brains. Google's a verb despite the 852 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:46,319 Speaker 1: quality of Google, because you probably experienced the same thing 853 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 1: I'm experiencing when you try to Google something. It's like 854 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:55,360 Speaker 1: because of AAI thing, I'm like, y'all, your product's getting worse. Now, 855 00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,240 Speaker 1: that's probably because we're old and we're not searching on TikTok, 856 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: which is where the rest of the people's search, which 857 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 1: was Google's defense. Google's like, I'm not worried about Netscape 858 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:13,799 Speaker 1: or ask Jeeves, I'm worried about TikTok, Like that's a 859 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: search engine and they're like, fam, no, it's not. What 860 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 1: are you talking about. The psychology or the power of 861 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 1: the default is when your brand is so strong that 862 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 1: you just don't think of you don't even think, of 863 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 1: course there's alternatives, you don't even think of it, which 864 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 1: is like a new strategy to argue that somebody has 865 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: a monopoly, So what's the solution. The solution is to 866 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:43,240 Speaker 1: break up the company. That's usually what it means. Now, 867 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 1: Like I told you before, what happened with Microsoft was 868 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: basically like they were supposed to split up Microsoft Office 869 00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 1: from from Windows. So that was the plan for Google. 870 00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: It's like you, I remember, this is an alpha BET's 871 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: a two trillion dollar company. So one of the suggestion 872 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:09,799 Speaker 1: was like divest Divesting the Android operating system was like 873 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: the most frequently discussed option by the Justice Department's attorney. 874 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:23,439 Speaker 1: And then some were suggesting the force of the ad 875 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: words like you have to sell that and Google gotta 876 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 1: let go of that program, right, the search ad program, right, 877 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: a divestment from that from its Chrome web browser. But 878 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, they haven't landed on 879 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 1: an actual verdict as to how to solve this. They've 880 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 1: just said, no, you violated antitrust laws. You're gonna have 881 00:54:43,040 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 1: to break up this company. Just curved them. Now, things 882 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 1: like this is where your super conservative capitalists argues is 883 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 1: a problem because it seems as though this is not 884 00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:36,359 Speaker 1: free market capitalism. They're like, let the consumer decide. We 885 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 1: just did good business and the government shouldn't interfere. These 886 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 1: are the same people that don't want the EPA to exist, 887 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 1: you know, So if there's mad cow disease and your beef, 888 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 1: they like people will stop buying it, so just leave 889 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 1: us alone, that's their argument. Like, well, I mean, tell 890 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 1: everybody else get their weight up. They don't want no interference, 891 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: which I guess I would understand too if I owned 892 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 1: a company and was making a kajillion dollars. But I'm 893 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 1: a consumer that really just want to be able to 894 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:15,239 Speaker 1: have good products, afford the products we have, and not 895 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 1: hear somebody like Jeff Bezos in his rocket that looked 896 00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 1: like a penis who didn't even actually make it in 897 00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 1: the space and then to say, hey, you guys did 898 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:30,720 Speaker 1: this by buying stuff, like don't nobody want to see that? Like, okay, listen, 899 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: here's the underbelly. We know, all right. The thing is 900 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 1: we ain't got no choice. Amazon might be next in this. 901 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:48,440 Speaker 1: This is the deal we've made without having an option 902 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:52,279 Speaker 1: to make this deal. We know we're making y'all rich, 903 00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 1: but we also need to live.
