Speaker 2: I I've been looking up a lot of references. Okay,

31
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: I'm rewatching or for the first time, I'm watching The

32
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: Real Housewives. Like I watched all of Saltlake City, and

33
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 2: then I watched all of Beverly Hills and now I'm

34
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 2: in the middle of Atlanta. So I've been watching, like

35
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: I've been looking up different references and I and one

36
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: of the characters was throwing this icons black female icons

37
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 2: of Hollywood party, and she was like assigning everyone address

38
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: in certain ways, and she assigned like one person like

39
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: Diana Ross and one person Tina Turner. And then she

40
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: made her enemy be Halle Berry from BAPS. And so

41
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: I just needed a refresher like because I remembered like

42
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 2: some of the outfit.

43
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 3: But then I looked it up and.

44
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: Then that person refused and then she kicked her out

45
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 2: of the party. So I've just been looking up like

89
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 5: For the record, I don't think his dick is underrated

90
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 5: depending on who's writing it. I feel like I've rated

91
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 5: his dick quite favorite properly.

92
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but when that cost some alarm bells, you're like

93
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: hold on, is there are there other people who are

94
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,560

00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: Up said Dick that.

96
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,000

97
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, doctor has so many notes on my dick. It's

98
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: so annoying.

99
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: I'm just like he said, he said, I wish I

100
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 3: had more hands. So you give that four thumbs down,

101
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 3: and it's like it's an old Chappelle show line. Why

102
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 3: would you say that about me?

103
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: Doc? Could be better, could be better? I mean, look,

104
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:53,119
Speaker 1: you want pointers. Yeah, so a TikTok finance person thinks

105
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: AI is overrated. We we happened to concur on this podcast.

106
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: We're not We're not big AI fans here? What what?

107
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: What are? What are the reasons for AI being overrated?

108
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, he does have more legit reasons for that, But

109
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 5: it sounds like an easy line to say. But part

110
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 5: I think part of it is just I guess the

111
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 5: short version is sort of what we're talking about is

112
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 5: like most people don't use AI. For most people talking

113
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 5: about how exciting AI is aren't using AI in the

114
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 5: way that it should. Like everyone's just talking to chat

115
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 5: GPT or having them right an essay. But it's really

116
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 5: the people using AI are the villains, right, like these

117
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 5: fake websites data harvesting, But most of us don't know

118
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 5: how to use it like that, and so it did

119
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 5: make me think though, if we all got more literate,

120
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 5: we could be using AI to fight things like that.

121
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 4: But I think we're so far behind right now.

122
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 3: More interested, I mean, because we're talking about finance. Is

123
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 3: there a way to invest in your partner's dick if

124
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 3: it's underrated?

125
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: Interesting?

126
00:06:54,520 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's n I'll consult with him. Yeah, okay, you

Speaker 3: I mean, look, I'm always looking for I'm always looking

129
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:05,839

00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 6: When I moved to LA I thought that air conditioning

160
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 6: was like forty five dollars a minute to run, and

161
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 6: so my roommate and my roommate was also an idiot,

162
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 6: so we didn't get it for like two years, and

163
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 6: there were times when it would be one hundred You

164
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 6: know that that's stretching late September early October, where it's

165
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 6: just in like one tens every single day. And I was,

166
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 6: of course unemployed, so I would like almost like a hippo,

167
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 6: go into the shower and like splash water on my

168
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 6: body to cool off, like cold water.

169
00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 3: Get out and do that multiple times a day.

170
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: And then fan shit just everywhere around you like a hippos.

171
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, and then I would put a whole watermelon in

172
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 6: my mouth and crush it in front of a bunch

173
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,599
Speaker 6: of a bunch.

174
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 1: Of amazed, odd children.

175
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, they loved it. I would do it with a

176
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 3: pumpkin during the fall.

177
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 6: Swash am I hippo, Peppa hippo.

178
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 3: I'm sorry I missed everything because there was another what

179
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 3: you said about pumpkins, but it's okay, David s pumpkins

180
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 3: the thing I would do, uh when I was because

181
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 3: also famously, for some reason, Asian moms don't like air

182
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 3: conditioning either, so I grew up also believing that it

183
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 3: was forty five dollars a second that like sometimes you

184
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 3: just ring out, I would. I would soak a bath

185
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 3: towel and water and then ring it out and then

186
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 3: use that as like a blanket because that, like the

187
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: very wet towel created a nice you know, insulating layer

188
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 3: to keep my body cool.

189
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 6: That's really funny that you would wear a wet a

190
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 6: wet well as a cooling blanket. Where I had the

191
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 6: opposite issue where we lived in like this townhouse, and

192
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 6: I had where I my bedroom was was like air conditioned,

193
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 6: finished attic, like really like a great place to like sleep,

194
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 6: but it didn't have heat up there. So in the

195
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 6: winter I would it was like a nice room, but

196
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 6: I would have to wear like a coat to bed,

197
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 6: like in the winter when I was home from like college,

198
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 6: and quilts and also to add like what really made

199
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 6: it a sad visual is that I was sleeping alone

200
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 6: in a bunk bed too, because we just never got

201
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 6: to do a bed for me. So yeah, when I

202
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 6: was home from school, I would be in a coat,

203
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 6: shivering in a bunk bed, but in a nice townhouse,

204
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 6: right it was.

205
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: It was already a very sad visual. Yeah, yeah, okay,

206
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: you set it up. It was such a nice attic.

207
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 3: But then the second you added trench coat, I'm like

208
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 3: picturing some like turn of the century Russian novel where

209
00:10:58,600 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 3: it's like.

210
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: You know, you got like shivering in my coat in

211
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: the attic.

212
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 6: The tin plates that they would pass through the little

213
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 6: doggy hole in the door for me to eat, you know,

214
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 6: with the mush on it. Those would get cleared out

215
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 6: pretty quickly. So it's it's not as sad as the problem.

216
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 3: It wasn't a problem. They cleared up, cleared up my

217
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 3: tin plates real quick, real quick.

218
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: As three raccoons I lived up there with didn't get

219
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: to it first.

220
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 3: And they got handsy.

221
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, they And I do want to say for if

222
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 6: anyone ever sees the visual of this, which seems less

223
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 6: and less.

224
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 3: Likely, we're working it out, folks.

225
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 6: Moving to New York next week, so by wall, we're moving.

226
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 6: I'm not as psychotic as everything that I've said so

227
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 6: far on this program would lead you to believe.

228
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: It looks like you're just squatting. Really, but it doesn't matter.

229
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: I know, I know the truth.

230
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 6: We know that I bring my own Wi Fi router

231
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 6: with me everywhere I squat and yah it's high speed.

232
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 1: Yeah that's right. All right, let's take a quick break

233
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: and we'll come back and learn what flagstocks.

234
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 3: And we're back.

235
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: Here with us.

236
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 3: Is that Humpy's Dumpy?

237
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:25,439
Speaker 2: This is Sammy. He's a little one humpy Umpy.

238
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: He's all damn all right, all right, well we did

239
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: want to check in with the story about what actually

240
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: caused inflation. We had speculated idly. Yeah that you know,

241
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: as so as inflation is happening. You can listen to

242
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: the earnings calls of corporations whose prices going way up

243
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: and hear them talk about how they're having record profit

244
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: all during pandemic and when inflation was this out of

245
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: control weather pattern that the global markets were dealing with,

246
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: And if you suggested such a thing that like they

247
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: were doing it on purpose because it was causing record profits,

248
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: you would be ridiculed.

249
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 3: It's like, but where'd the profits come from? You also

250
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: say you had lower costs to shut it's not because

251
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 3: it because because we're doing so good.

252
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know about you, guys.

253
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: I have never heard of a corporation.

254
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 3: Being never okay for greed, never, never, never, never never never.

255
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 3: Excuse me, Well, it's just wild because only because Kroger

256
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 3: and Albertson's are trying to have a merger that like,

257
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 3: you know, the FEDS are like, ah wait a tick

258
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 3: here that we got some testimony from one of the

259
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 3: Kroger executives and they bring up this fucking email we're

260
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 3: in an email, it is discussed that said quote on

261
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 3: milk and eggs, retail inflation has been significantly higher than

262
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 3: cost inflation, and then goes on to say, our objective

263
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 3: is to quote pas through our inflation to consumers mm hm.

264
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 3: And they're like, oh, wait, that you mean you mean

265
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 3: you're you're charging them more that that's what It sounds

266
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 3: like you're passing the inflation onto us. And like again,

267
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 3: like other people commenting on this, like this was like

268
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 3: no secret that was happening, especially when it comes to

269
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 3: like milk and eggs. A lot of people who were

270
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 3: defending this are like they just cherry picked a couple

271
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 3: comments here and like make it seem like that's like,

272
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: this is an email from a top executive at Kroger

273
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 3: who is talking to other executives about how they're even there.

274
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 3: They're saying, right here, retail inflation has been significantly higher

275
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: than cost inflation.

276
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: So the retail price is going up higher than what

277
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: our costs are going up.

278
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 2: That this is like the sorry, I like that. This

279
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 2: is like the grocery store version of the Jinks where

280
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: he's like, I did it, Oh, I raised all the prices.

281
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: I do it again, yeah, but the response from economists,

282
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: a lot of economists, not all economists, but a lot

283
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: of economists who coincidentally seem to usually work for or

284
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: be you know, speaking to or being interviewed by mainstream

285
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: media outlets that are owned by corporations. It seems to

286
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, it's just like one or two bad

287
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: actors and it like there's no correlation. But like so again,

288
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: just the bottom line thing is like, how are when

289
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 1: inflations at a record high, their profits are at a

290
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: record high. Like those are the two things that like

291
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: the I need an argument that's going to dispel those things.

292
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 1: But like you said, Miles, meanwhile, Kroger's fighting the government

293
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: for their right to merge with Albertson, like two massive

294
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: grocery chains, which again like a big problem with this,

295
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: and the reason they're able to do that is not

296
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: enough competition, so they're able to raise prices and not

297
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: be worried that, you know, another retailer is gonna lower

298
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: the prices, which is how the whole system is supposed

299
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: to work. But because these massive corporations got so much power,

300
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: they can now just kind of fix things. Yep. So

301
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: a lot of places are picking it up, but it's

302
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: like not really mainstream, Like Business Insider picked up the

303
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: story of the burg this is weird Bloomberg, but not

304
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: the Washington Post, which absolutely mocked Kamala Harris for suggesting

305
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: corporate greed played a significant role in inflation.

306
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 3: Which it's not like you're getting that from some like

307
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 3: far left extremist person just being like, yeah, I'm pretty

308
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 3: sure they're going up because they're making a ton of money.

309
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: They're no, yeah, no, And then I just look, I

310
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: just searched their website.

311
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 3: Uh, there's nothing like where they're headlining that this executive,

312
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 3: Like they have a headline where like that's referencing what

313
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 3: this Kroger executive mentioned sharing this testimony.

314
00:16:55,160 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: But hey, this cherry picked. It's just a little look back. Listen.

315
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 2: I don't know what you guys are talking about, but

316
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 2: I'm going to continue hiding eggs under my mattress, okay,

317
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 2: because that's where the gold is.

318
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 3: Always look under the mattress. Yeah, it's pretty sulphuric, I

319
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: would say, But like the wild part is too. I

320
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 3: was like searching, like the news search function on covering

321
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 3: is it only Jacobin not even dude, Barstool Sports Barstool Sports.

322
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 3: I want to just read something from barstool from Barstool

Speaker 3: Sports about this. Okay, they're talking about the the this

324
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 3: guy Graf who Andy Groff, who's the Kroger price guy,

325
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 3: said he spilled the beans during an FTC hearing. His

326
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 3: internal email a masterpiece of corporate honesty, revealed their strategy

327
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 3: pass through our inflation to customers. Translation, let's squeeze those

328
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 3: four those poor fucking plubs for every penny we can,

329
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 3: the American way. Kroger's defense, Oh, that email was cherry pick.

330
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 3: They say they're decades long business model is all about

331
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 3: lowering prices. Okay, mother Teresa, what a barstool sports this.

332
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: Is in barstools Dave or noise.

333
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 2: The end, they were like and bitches got titties just to.

334
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, exactly, That's why I should be allowed to

335
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: sexually harass my coworker.

336
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 3: Now check out the nasty ten nastiest strip clubs in Bogota, Columbia.

337
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 2: But like where that costume is too high?

338
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 7: Yeah right?

339
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 3: They go on it says quote, this revelation isn't just

340
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 3: about Kroger. It's a symptom of a larger disease. Plaguing

341
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 3: corporate America. Companies across the board have been posting record

342
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 3: profits while consumers struggle with sky high inflation. Uh remember

343
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 3: those quote supply chain issues we kept hearing about. Sure

344
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 3: they played a role, but let's be honest. Some prices

345
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 3: were elevated simply because businesses knew they could get away

346
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 3: with it. It's the American way, right, profit over people.

347
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 3: This is in Barstools Sports, Comrade.

348
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 2: You know how like climate change has made like like

349
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 2: Seattle is like having less rain than La, but like

350
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: La is having more and like everything shifting. That's what

351
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 2: it feels like with media. Like remember when teen Vogue

352
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 2: was like doing hard hitting pieces and we were like, wait,

353
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 2: we forgot to pay attention to teen Vogue. Like all

354
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 2: of the world has gone so upside down that all

355
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 2: of the so called like hard hitting journalists are doing

356
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 2: the dumbest shit. So now like Barstool Sports has to

357
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 2: step up to fill that need.

358
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like.

359
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 3: I was a little curious about this because it's like

360
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 3: who is like who's writing this?

361
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: And I found the author's Twitter feed.

362
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 3: And it does not strike me as someone who is

363
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 3: out here with their like critiques of capitalism. Like there's

364
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 3: another paragraphs and even this is all I'm just this

365
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 3: is capitalism, after all, you and your work is worth

366
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 3: what somebody's willing to pay. And but then like their

367
00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 3: Twitter feed is like Kamala misinformation RFK video quotes have

368
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 3: been like well this is a weird this is an

369
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 3: interesting take about Russia, and then like weird stuff again.

370
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 3: That's why I got the strip club stuff. It was

371
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 3: a video about strip clubs in Columbia, and I'm like what.

372
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 3: And then also George old George Carlin stand up about

373
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 3: class consciousness. So I'm wondering if this person got like

374
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 3: rat like quasi radicalized, because at the bottom of this

375
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: Barstool Sports article is a George Carlin clip. Yeah, the

376
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 3: illusion of choice. So it feels like a dude who

377
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 3: may have been on the barstool wagon caught some Carlin,

378
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 3: got some class consciousness, got momentarily radicalized, and then went

379
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 3: back to their regularly scheduled programing like this is the

380
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 3: hottest pool vaulter in the pac ten.

381
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: I mean, the political world has been has been talking

382
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: about Republican like barstool Republicans for a long time now,

383
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: being right, you know, people who are like I define

384
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: myself as masculine, and therefore I hate Democrats and I

385
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: love Republicans because Dave Portanoy says things that make me

386
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: laugh sometime. But but like I didn't realize that that

387
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: included like economic populism. I don't think it does generally.

388
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 3: I'm just yeah, that's m Like, I want to know

389
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 3: more about whom, like, like if this is just a

390
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 3: cobbled together with AI they're using some guy's name to

391
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 3: attribute it to it, or if this is just kind

392
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 3: of or maybe I'm I'm not reading enough barstool and

393
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 3: I'm realizing I do.

394
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 2: You think it's I think things like that are super

395
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 2: believable because I do think that, like now, more than ever,

396
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 2: people's beliefs are in like a blender and it's more

397
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: of a grab bag. Like you'll find people who are

398
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 2: really like socially like liberal who are anti vaxers or

399
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: you know, like that's where it started, but now it's

400
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: like it you really like, if you're out in the

401
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 2: dating scene, you have to ask like all of the

402
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: questions right right, because at any point could someone be like, yeah,

403
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 2: this is this is normal, this is normal. Sell me alarm,

404
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 2: Sell me alarm, right, right, because people are like that

405
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 2: with like just the most random random beliefs, Like it's

406
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 2: no longer like okay, like this party believes this and

407
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 2: this other party believes this. It's like kind of a

408
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 2: general divide. It's like you could be insane and like

409
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 2: all sorts of things.

410
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 3: I think there's also like this other thing too, where

411
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 3: regardless of maybe what you're like sort of you know,

412
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: registered voting political beliefs, are that the world you interact with,

413
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 3: a world where like your observations are like why the

414
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 3: fuck is all this shit so expensive and they're making money,

415
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 3: and just on your own through just existing, you kind

416
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,360
Speaker 3: of arrive at this conclusion too, even though right, yeah,

417
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 3: even though you're like I thought you're supposed to be

418
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 3: like one of these free market like conservative type people,

419
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 3: but at the end you're like, nah, I write for

420
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 3: barstool and shit's expensive, so this is kind of fucked up.

421
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: But anyway, here the top strip clubs in Bogata. It's

422
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 1: like how that like there was that article is really

423
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: good by the way that you kid is really good,

424
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: like they go deep they it's.

425
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:07,719
Speaker 2: Actually about a universal health care No, there was actually

426
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 2: like somebody in like Indiana or something like. I remember

427
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 2: like listening to all these interviews during the last election

428
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 2: cycle about how people are like pro Trump, but they

429
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 2: actually do believe in the tenets of universal health care,

430
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 2: but they hate they like don't want Obamacare, like so

431
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 2: they don't. People don't fully understand necessarily like the labels

432
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: or the so called theory, like they're not like Marxists,

433
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, but they do.

434
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: They do still.

435
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 2: Have that feeling that you were describing and like something

436
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 2: isn't right here, and like you should all be able

437
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 2: to afford food and rent.

438
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: But I don't want to call it it'd be funny.

439
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 3: Like the end, it really is like sincerely, guys, Like

440
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 3: I don't know about you, guys, but it's like I

441
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 3: clock in for a job where like they take the

442
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 3: work that I do and they get rich off of it,

443
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 3: and I just feel so distinct the means whatever I'm created,

444
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 3: you know, it's just odd that I feel so disconnected

445
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 3: and isolated from it as a working person.

446
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: Whatever. Anyway, here's the top.

447
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 2: And break down unions like.

448
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: Dude, would you kill man? What you kill? Okay, like

449
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 1: a carnivore or like somebody a worker who's trying to Yeah,

450
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: it's just wild that there's a policy position that's so

451
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: popular on both sides that neither major party will openly

452
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: agree to take. And when one does, like with Kamala

453
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: Harris's you know policy, it's pretty tame and it gets

454
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: absolutely destroyed by mainstream media. Let's for being like extremist

455
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: and unrealistic, and she's not a real adult, right right, right, Sorry, miss,

456
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 1: we're adulting here. We are three economists. Anyways, let's talk

457
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 1: about phones in school. I guess I didn't realize that

458
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 1: kids were on their phones in classes as much as

459
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: they are. There's this episode of The Daily Today that is,

460
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: I didn't realize, like they're saying, like people came back

461
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: from the pandemic and they were just like everybody's like

462
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: on their phones. They got so used to interacting with

463
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: each other and school via screens, Like now that's just

464
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 1: like impossible to take away. And now they're trying to

465
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: institute these bands. But there's like mixed messaging on how

466
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: popular that is or how successful or even feasible it is.

467
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 1: We talked a few weeks back about the fact that

468
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: the most posh prep school in London has banned smartphones

469
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: and given students dumb phones instead.

470
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 2: They're like those phones with bubble gum in them from

471
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 2: when we were kids exactly. They come everywhere.

472
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I can't call my mom.

473
00:25:58,560 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

474
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: That was the thing that they were fighting against when

475
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: I was in school was gum chewing. That was all

476
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: I had to contend with.

477
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 2: We this is a this is a type of friends

478
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 2: I had. My science teacher had to impose a Magic

479
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 2: the Gathering tax because so many of my friends were

480
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 2: playing it, and she also knew how to play it,

481
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 2: so she would take She was like, if I see

482
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 2: those cards out, I'm gonna take your best cards.

483
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: And we did, I'm gonna take you your best card.

484
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

485
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 2: She was like really good at Magic the Gathering, so

486
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 2: she was she just building her sets of.

487
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: Ultimate hotly shit.

488
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, ours was just like playing like drug Wars on

489
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 3: like T I eighty three, Like that was like the

490
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 3: biggest distraction we had at the time.

491
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, it is. It is funny though too.

492
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 3: Like Jack, both when you said that, both you and

493
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 3: are like, damn, my kids are like on their phone,

494
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 3: like just like as if we couldn't per conceive a

495
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 3: world where that was even possible like it used to

496
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 3: be you get in big trouble for chewing gum.

497
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 2: Yeah right, I'm enjoying watching you to continue parenting. Were

498
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 2: like kids phones, They don't seem to like those.

499
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 1: But I mean they like them to I don't know.

500
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: So the daily episode lands in a place in between

501
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 1: being like, we get why they're banning it, but we

502
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: don't have the data to support whether this ban is

503
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: good or bad. It really feels like I don't know,

504
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 1: how how are you not just taking the comments like,

505
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, we know it's fucking bad for kids.

506
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 1: Like The anecdotal evidence includes watching kids walk around like zombies,

507
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: watching like seeing their mental health deteriorate like in this generation,

508
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: the way they react like addicts when your takeaway take

509
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 1: away their phone, the fact that the people who design

510
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,199
Speaker 1: the phones and the software don't allow their kids to

511
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: use this shit, everything about the software being designed to

512
00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: make money and surveil and manipulate their behavior and nothing

513
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 1: has to do with like any anything that's good for them.

514
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: And the detail they used a question whether it's bad

515
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: is like, but there are these like learning applications on phones,

516
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 1: and we don't know if those are like canceling out

517
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: all the other ship and it's a little.

518
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 2: Right, here's a compromise that I think will be really good.

519
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 2: I think, sure, you take away the kids' phones whatever,

520
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 2: but in every class there's the most like the funniest

521
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 2: kid gets to keep their phone just so that they

522
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 2: get to be the racist teacher monitor and like pull

523
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 2: it out anytime the teacher is doing us ship, you

524
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 2: know what I mean.

525
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: I can't lose.

526
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 2: Those tiktoks where the teacher just like goes off and

527
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 2: you're like, are we living in the fifties? What?

528
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 3: It's funny too, like those teachers like someone was videotaping that. Yeah,

529
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 3: but there being like they're allowed to have phones in class.

530
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 2: See them use a crank and put a sheet over there.

531
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: Sorry, I meant to say about the trail of tears.

532
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: It wasn't that. You're like, whoa, whoa easy, eas easy.

533
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: Some people do have tears of laughter. I'm just saying

534
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: it's possible, it's possible, it's possible, but this is happening.

535
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 1: As we just got new evidence that phones are listening

536
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: to smartphone microphones and using AI to capture real time

537
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: intent data.

538
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, this felt like a thing we would talk about

539
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 3: a lot early on in the show of just being

540
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 3: like our phones were like, I think our phones are

541
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 3: listening to us. How come a thing I've never searched for,

542
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 3: talked about, but never even interacted with anything in my

543
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 3: browsing history. I'm suddenly being served ads for this thing.

544
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: And it's because Miles, we recorded the show in person

545
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: and had out loud conversations about what we were going

546
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: to cover on the show. Yeah, and then as we

547
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: were like putting the doc together, we would be like, weird,

548
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: now it's like serving me a ad for lawnmowers, even

549
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: though like I was randomly talking about lawnmowers.

550
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 2: And the Miles, Miles is only obsessed with like Casper,

551
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 2: and and he's like, why do I keep getting ads

552
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 2: for that that? Even though that's all I ever wanted

553
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 2: in life?

554
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 1: What mean?

555
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love Casper mattresses or loved but like you know,

556
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 3: even like when you would search right like all the time,

557
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 3: I remember, we'd be like this, this can't be and

558
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 3: like all the articles you'd get when you searched for

559
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 3: like the question of like our our phones listening to us.

560
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 3: There was some techie breakdown about how like algorithms figure

561
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 3: out that you might be in proximity to someone that

562
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 3: you're friends with and they know you are via Facebook,

563
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 3: and therefore it you it may be relevant to you,

564
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 3: so that's why the ad will show up or whatever.

565
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: But even then I'm like, okay, that seemed feasible.

566
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 3: At least it was feasible enough that I was like,

567
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 3: all right, that that could that totally could be.

568
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: And then we kind of moved on.

569
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 3: But then this leak came out from Cox Media Group

570
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 3: and there was a pitch deck that.

571
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 2: Ban coxes Media g braan.

572
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 3: Cox Yes, exactly, fuck fuck off, fuck off Media Group.

573
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 3: And so in this leaked pitch deck to prospective customers,

574
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 3: and they were one of Facebook's like marketing partners, although

575
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 3: now like after this, Meta and a few other companies

576
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 3: have been to distance themselves from Cox. It talked about

577
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 3: how it listens to users smartphone microphones and advertises to them. Accordingly,

578
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 3: the TV and radio news giant Cox Media Group claims

579
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 3: that it's so called quote active listening software uses AI

580
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 3: to quote capture real time intent data by listening to

581
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 3: our conversations.

582
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 2: That's why I'm always like, oh my god, you know

583
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 2: what I could really go for right now is healthcare

584
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 2: or like lower guess right?

585
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 3: Or to Suddy it's like, hey, man, come through to

586
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 3: mobile where it's way expensive.

587
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: But we heard you need gues. Sorry, don't know what

588
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 1: else to tell you.

589
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,719
Speaker 3: And then it says goes on quote advertisers compare this

590
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 3: voice data with behavioral data to target in market consumers.

591
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: That's what the deck said. That all sounds perfectly nonsinister

592
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: to me.

593
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 2: Point the technology is gonna be like girl dump him.

594
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know he's been like visiting like a rite aid.

595
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 3: That's way out of the way from y'all right, I

596
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 3: don't know what for, but based on what I'm saying

597
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 3: from this map view, there's a corner of the parking

598
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 3: lot where it's not visible to cameras or people on

599
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 3: the street anyway, I don't know, can check that out.

600
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: FBI agents like really, DM, the FBI just uses this

601
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 2: software to just find people.

602
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 1: That's how they found bin Laden.

603
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,959
Speaker 3: Actually it wasn't even the CIA, it was just this

604
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 3: Facebook as.

605
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: Man, come on, nobody likes volleyball and Whitney Houston this

606
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: much except for we got him the pacer.

607
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 3: So then like apparently this is the third time in

608
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 3: the last year that Cox has gotten media attention for

609
00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 3: their active listening feature. They also delete a Cox media group.

610
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 3: They deleted a blog post from their own website from

611
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 3: last year that was talking about active listening and you

612
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 3: can see it through the Internet archive.

613
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: Thank god.

614
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 3: It said there's one section like is it legal? You know,

615
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 3: is active listeners? Like this is their active listening faq?

616
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 3: Is active listening legal?

617
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: Answer?

618
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 5: Yeah?

619
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: Right? Oh wow?

620
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 3: Is selling human organs that you've procured outside of you know,

621
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 3: normal channels illegal? Well, allow us to answer that. This says, quote,

622
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 3: we know what you're thinking. Is this even legal?

623
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: Funny, there's no he said this.

624
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 3: The short answer is yes, it is legal for phones

625
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 3: and devices to listen to you. When a new app,

626
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 3: download or update prompts consumers with a multi page terms

627
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 3: of use agreement, somewhere in the fine print, active listening

628
00:33:55,640 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 3: is often included. And you're like, oh, holy shit, okay

629
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 3: that's in there. Yeah, your part read you could become

Speaker 3: widowed the way you could.

631
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: I just want to say it's not your fault. That

632
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: that's the thing that's like unspoken. We all like for

633
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: a long time, we're like, yeah, we just agree to this.

634
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: Ship who cares, like, what are we going to do?

635
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,919

636
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,800

637
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 1: to that ship. Like or.

638
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 2: It's like when the when Disney tried to like invalidate

639
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 2: that lady's lawsuit by being like, well you watched the TV.

Speaker 1: up your I thought we couldn't kill you.

643
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 2: The plus stands for negative rights, right.

644
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's funny.

645
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 2: Also, like really fucked up with them to call it

646
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,839
Speaker 2: active listening after everything I learned in school about how

647
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 2: important act is.

648
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 1: Yeah right, right right, But.

649
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 2: They're doing a woke is up you got.

650
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: There, very smart.

651
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,400
Speaker 2: They're therapy speaking their way through surveillance. States.

652
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: Well, they've been active listening in all those classrooms, so

653
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: they heard the teachers teaching kids that active listening is good.

654
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: So that's how they got the idea that are like, yeah.

655
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 2: You're just sitting there like on your phone, and their

656
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 2: friend's like, oh that's nice. You're like, what's the fun

657
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 2: They're like, I hear you, I.

658
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 1: Get I've got a new idea, what the fun? But yeah,

659
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: so these are the people that the daily episode is like,

660
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: we don't it's too soon to tell. But I don't know.

661
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: It just feels it feels like it's not too soon

662
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: to tell if having smartphones in school is better than

663
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: not having them in school. I just don't.

664
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm sure, Hey, I know there are people

665
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 3: who are educators that listen to this show. I feel

666
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 3: like you even people who I know who are teachers

667
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 3: and stuff, they always talk about how much of a

668
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 3: distraction it is, and depending on the school, you have

669
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 3: policies or they're like just it's like lightly discouraging, or

670
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 3: it's like a huge problem if your phone comes out.

671
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 3: But it just feels like a thing where it's like

672
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 3: if you if if it's an emergency, there there are

673
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 3: ways for you to be contacted.

674
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: That's yeah, no, no, no, for sure, And it's probably

675
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: you know, enforced in a really fucked up way where

676
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 1: like the teachers being the front line are just forced

677
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: to deal with kids who are addicted to their phone.

678
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 3: Hey, try and get these guys the cold Turkey heroin

679
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 3: in your in your in your in your eighty minute class.

680
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're acting like the students or the problem.

681
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,879
Speaker 2: When I'm sure the teachers are like, please, don't make

682
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 2: me give up my phone. They're like please, Yeah, no,

683
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,799
Speaker 2: we shouldn't have phones in classrooms, but they should all

684
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,320
Speaker 2: be in my drawer. I'm on a candy crush Crush Street.

685
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 3: Okay, Hey, someone hooked me up with some credits. You

Speaker 2: He needs who needs extra credit?

688
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god. I had a teacher like that.

00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,280
Speaker 1: I need some extra credit, dude. We had a teacher,

691
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 1: my biology teacher sophomore year, said we could get like, uh,

692
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 1: like a.

693
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 3: Half letter grade adjustment upward if we donated to the

694
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:10,959
Speaker 3: cross country running team.

695
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 2: That's fucking insane.

696
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,399
Speaker 3: And we were like, yeah, yeah, say let's say let's

00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 3: because I'm not fucking with the I'm not fucking with

00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 3: cell respiration, So yeah, how much you want?

699
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: Ten bucks?

700
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 3: And I remember and then it then I remember, like

701
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 3: at the time, I was like, this is great, dude,

702
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 3: ten bucks and I don't have to study. And then

703
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 3: a student who was much smarter like went to the

704
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 3: school and was like, uh, they're saying if we give

705
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 3: them money, they'll change our grades. And like the teacher

706
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 3: had to give us all our money back, but then

707
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 3: also had to keep our grades like with the adjustment too.

708
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 3: Wow no, no, yeah, we got the grades and our

709
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 3: money back.

710
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: And we're like there you go, thank you go. Yeah. Away,

711
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,

712
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 1: and we're back Hello the internet. There he is always,

713
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 1: he's just always ready to you know, hop bitch, Yeah

714
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 1: he is.

715
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 3: That's right.

716
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 1: All right, Let's check out Jesse Waters because he just

717
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: blasted Tim Walls for not being masculine enough. And we

718
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: know that's true because a women that Jesse Waters personally

719
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 1: claims to have talked to don't want to fuck Tim Walls,

720
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,359
Speaker 1: gotcha and b and uh So that one you might

721
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 1: be like, okay, hearsay, your honor, Well be we have

722
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 1: actual scientific evidence, an expert witness, your honor. I bring

723
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 1: Jesse Waters to the stand, who has a theory on why.

724
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 3: I think not even a theory, right, I feel like

725
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 3: because this has been born out scientifically, I think we

726
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 3: can call this a long now right, Yeah, yeah, this

727
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 3: is it helps me.

728
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 6: That helps me not having seen this yet, Yeah, so

729
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 6: what this is going to be exactly?

730
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 3: Now, take everything Jesse Waters says as just absolute, immutable

731
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 3: truth that you must accept.

732
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 1: Here's Jesse Waters on his take on masculinity.

733
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 7: Women love masculinity and women do not love Tim Walls,

734
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 7: So should just tell you about how masculine Tim Walls is.

735
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,959
Speaker 7: The other day you saw him with a vanilla ice

736
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 7: cream shake, had a straw in it. Oh, ice cream,

737
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 7: that tells you everything, Judge, Janine.

738
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: Judge Janine, over to you. Sorry, it was that he

739
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: had a straw in it, and that tells you everything

740
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: you need you know.

741
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, we know, we can tell when we

742
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 3: are all in agreement.

743
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: Obviously I haven't been used. I didn't even think you

744
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: had to say that. Everyone knows that if you drink

745
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: through a straw, that's yeah, unmasculine.

746
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 3: Oxygen to live. It's like what yeah yeah yeah. Also,

747
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 3: real men don't go fucking uh snorkeling because that shit

748
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,680

00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:15,280
Speaker 1: Dude.

751
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 3: Even when I go to the dentist, I don't even

752
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 3: let them do the suction for to get my survival.

753
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: I just let him pull out and just fall.

754
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 3: Out of my face, all over my face because I

755
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 3: have no tube in my mouth.

756
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Man,

757
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: you look like Rocky with just bloods, looking like a

758
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 1: million dollar baby.

759
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 3: I've been intubated or something. Dude, fucking tough ship.

760
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 6: I saw this beta horse eating straw, and I got

761
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 6: so straw eating eating straw.

762
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 3: I threw a hamburger.

763
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 6: As hard as I could at that thing, stupid brainless head,

764
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 6: and it's stopped and it ate that, and I'm like,

765
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 6: there we go make progress.

766
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,720
Speaker 1: It's it's it's wild that he's been like holding onto

767
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,760
Speaker 1: this for a very like it's part of his brand. Obviously,

768
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: weird takes on masculinity. It's a thing he tends to

769
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: come back to the way I come back to the

770
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 1: cold gas study or Havanas right right right, right, right right.

771
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: But it's so I'm not gonna begrudge him that, but

772
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: I am a little confused why he thinks it's so compelling.

773
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 3: Well here, like, you know, let's just let's this is

00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 7: He Poller plunged at a little Black Friday shopping with Hunter,

781
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,800
Speaker 7: and he called one of our correspondents stupid. And we're

782
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 7: willing to look past that little outburst. But some things

783
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 7: we just can't let slide.

784
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 1: And then straw of Joe Biden.

785
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 7: Now, if you've seen me on the Five or on

786
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,800
Speaker 7: Prime Time, you know I recommend that all men refrained

787
00:41:55,840 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 7: from using straws the way a man's lips purse. The

788
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 7: size of the straw is just too dainty, the way

789
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 7: your fingers clasp on it.

790
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: No, come on, wait, I'm sorry. You like a size?

791
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: Is he like a size?

792
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 3: He's like, I don't like like I want to I

793
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,839
Speaker 3: want to wrap my I want stretch marks on my

794
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 3: mouth when I when I sip from a sto, that's

795
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 3: some little puny.

796
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 1: Thing, you know what I mean?

797
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 3: I drink through PCP pipe is what what is it called?

798
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: I'm smoking out of a piece? Yeah, this is by

799
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,720
Speaker 1: the way, We've had to edit all the other times

800
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 1: Blake is accidentally brought in this episode.

801
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 6: So many and used yeah and used on the show.

802
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 6: You know, I like to drink out of a gutter.

803
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 6: I like to remove gutters off my house and then

804
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 6: you drink yeah through them in ice.

805
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: Luish.

806
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,879
Speaker 3: I guess I'll We'll let him continue. There's a little

807
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,479
Speaker 3: bit on the end of this, right Jack, you're saying

808
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,359
Speaker 3: as he continues to talk about yeah.

809
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 1: Okay, he also has like some some soup takes.

810
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 7: Okay, straws are for women and little kids. But apparently

811
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:01,359
Speaker 7: this is controversial.

812
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 1: So then we showed Jimmy Kimmel, who's making fun of him.

813
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 7: Men should never suck anything through a straw?

814
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,760
Speaker 1: Is that if a thing? Now, I don't.

815
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 7: Jimmy, you know, I don't apologize that, along with the

816
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 7: straws and others one of my many tenants. And I'm

817
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 7: sure Trump would agree that wasn't a good look. He's

818
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 7: better than that. And as you've heard me say, it's

819
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:32,879
Speaker 7: not just straws, Jimmy. Soup is another problem area. Men

820
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 7: should need soup in public. Again, you're pursing your lips

821
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 7: in anticipation.

822
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: Okay, we got a stock photo something soup.

823
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 7: You lean your head out trying not to spill it.

824
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 1: Come on, it's like a balancing act.

825
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:47,840
Speaker 7: Isn't even filling.

826
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 1: Sometimes you have to if it's too hot. It's too hot, dude.

827
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 3: I what what happened in Jesse waters life?

828
00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?

829
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 3: When you end up so like so in your head

830
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 3: with your like homophobic shit where you're like, dude, fucking

831
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 3: like put a tube near your mouth or something, and

832
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 3: then you gotta blow on something, dude, And like men

833
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,280
Speaker 3: should be like fully reclined, laying down, eating with their hands.

834
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 1: That's the only way to eat. Otherwise, you know, I

835
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: don't know, Look a little only manly way to take

836
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: in calories is have grapes fed to you while you're

837
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 1: being fanned. Yeah, otherwise starved to death with peacock feathers.

838
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean, based on what we know about Tucker his predecessor, like,

839
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 1: one would have to suspect that Jesse Waters as his

840
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: dad got cooked by like.

841
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 8: A straw straw, Yeah, a straw salesman, A soup guy.

842
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 8: I don't know, yeah, the soup. Like people don't even

843
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 8: purse their lips to eat soup, as far as I know.

844
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 8: Is he talking about blowing on something that's hot, Yeah.

845
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 3: It would just burn your mouth again, it doesn't make

846
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 3: any sense. The thing that for me resonated because I

847
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 3: do agree with someone what he's saying, you know, more

848
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 3: than anything is like you know, like when you're a

849
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 3: kid and you take shit from like TV and movies

850
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,879
Speaker 3: and you kind of like bring that into your personality

851
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 3: like most kids thought they were Ace Ventura at some point.

852
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, or like you're like.

853
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 6: I talked out of my ass literally before and now

854
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:15,280
Speaker 6: it's only.

855
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 3: Figured out, but you know what I mean, And like

856
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 3: you're kind of like, oh, that's that that thing that

857
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 3: character said, I'm going to take that on in my

858
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,959
Speaker 3: life as a philosophy. But you're like twelve. This guy

859
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 3: is doing it like in his forties. Because I don't

860
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 3: know if you remember the film Crazy Stupid Love, Like

861
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 3: Ryan Gosling's cool guy character tells the nerdy Steve Correll

862
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,919
Speaker 3: character in that film to knock it off with using

863
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 3: a straw because it looks like they're sucking on a

864
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 3: little dick.

865
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, that's he's just like stealing it, you know.

866
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 3: I think I think I think he saw that, and

867
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 3: it was like, dude, this Ryan got this, Ryan got

868
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 3: my shit. The sickest dude I've ever fucking seen. And

869
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,840
Speaker 3: if his rule is like you don't sip fucking anything

870
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 3: out of a straw to be a man, that's just

871
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 3: one of Jesse's laws.

872
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 1: Baby, it is.

873
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,240
Speaker 3: What and that idiot only used it for one line.

874
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:12,920
Speaker 3: I can stretch this out for years ever. Yeah, really, Jesse.

875
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 1: No straws. Yeah, I'll tell you why.

876
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 3: Gotta push your lips, you gotta tell you, gotta cup

877
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 3: the ball, you gotta drink the water.

878
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: It's just it's just it's just unbecoming. It's unbecoming, especially

879
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: not of a president.

880
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 3: So yeah, what you gotta do is freeze the soup

881
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 3: and lick it like a block of a popsicle. That's

882
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 3: how many soup.

883
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 1: Just lap it up, you know what I mean?

884
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 3: Like a dog, like a male dog.

885
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, poor tough man dog. Yeah that is.

886
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 3: That has to be haunting to have a movie character's

887
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 3: voice ringing through your head like and be like, oh

888
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 3: my god, I'm doing the thing Ryan Gosling's character said

889
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 3: to not doing that rom com that most people kind

890
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 3: of remember.

891
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: Fuck yeah, I wonder if it's just like one of

892
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 1: his writers is like stealing from that and he's just

893
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 1: like confidently like this is good stuff, right right right,

894
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 1: we're killing it more stuff like that. Yeah, that's it.

895
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: It's also like Donald Trump has like talked about the

896
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: fact that he, because he's a German phobe, will not

897
00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,719
Speaker 1: like drink anything not through a straw, including like if

898
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 1: he's at a black tie event, right, will only drink

899
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,400
Speaker 1: through a straw because he doesn't trust the glasses to

900
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:27,719
Speaker 1: be clear.

901
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, and to the point where like in the Culture

902
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 3: Wars they were hawking there, like full PVC pipe straws

903
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 3: that they were putting out like in response to like,

904
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,240
Speaker 3: oh everything's a paper straw or like not plastic anymore

905
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,360
Speaker 3: by your Trump Maga straws.

906
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 1: It's a big part of the brand.

907
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 3: But anyway, it doesn't matter because nothing is consistent with

908
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,760
Speaker 3: their outrage. It's just they just say whatever and I'm sorry.

909
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 1: Thing kind of fucked me up because my mother in

910
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,360
Speaker 1: law for a long time has been complimenting me on

911
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 1: how much I like soup because I love Korean soup,

912
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 1: since it.

913
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 6: Is a great thing about you, it's one of the

914
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 6: only good things. Well, yeah, and you come back on

915
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 6: the show, Blake. Yeah, it's because of his love, so

916
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 6: yeah you.

917
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,759
Speaker 1: And but then recently was like, you know, most men

918
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,520
Speaker 1: don't like soups. When she was like telling me about soups,

919
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 1: and she was like, so that's why we think. It's

920
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: like so nice that you like soups. And yeah, now

921
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 1: now I don't eat soup because I feel like you can't.

922
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 3: It makes me look like, Jack, I made it, made

923
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 3: your favorite soup. Yeah, put it on a plate for me.

924
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 3: Let's plate that place.

925
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 1: Yeah. Are you gonna don't worry about it in a

926
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,439
Speaker 1: rocks glass? Oh yeah, burns. It's going all the side

927
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 1: of my face. But I gotta have it hot. I'm

928
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,240
Speaker 1: not gonna blow on it and purse my lips.

929
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 3: No wait, but so she's it was the implication there

930
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 3: that soup is truly not a man's food.

931
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 1: I think that is a thing in Creaan culture. Maybe

932
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 1: that it's like not or that men are like soup

933
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 1: is too easy for you to make make me something

934
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: that's not sure.

935
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,480

Speaker 1: you want me to get you a straw for your soup? Jack?

938
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 1: Like what, because you're a real man, aren't you. Yeah? Yeah.

939
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 1: Seventy percent of what she says about me is in

940
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 1: Korean within your shot of me, and I don't speak Korean,

941
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: so she entirely would be like Jesus Chris, She's like wow,

942
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,280
Speaker 1: She's like I wanted more for you as my daughter,

943
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 1: but hey, you know it is what it is. Huh

944
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: that getting behind me and giving a thumbs down to

945
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 1: everyone else in the room at straw motion? Yeah, what's that?

946
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 1: Oh nothing, Jack? Your soup is ready? All right? Should

947
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,360
Speaker 1: we look at some Halloween costumes? Yes, it's Halloween costume

948
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: season already, even though it is one hundred and eleven

949
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 1: degrees in Los Angeles, which would melt most Halloween costumes,

950
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 1: which are made out of yeah, basically rough yeah candle wax.

951
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 1: All right, So it has arrived in stores earlier than

952
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,279
Speaker 1: ever this year. Target Home Depot and Low's rolled out

953
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 1: their Halloween collections back in July, and Spirit Halloween has

954
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 1: already opened over a thousand stores in the US, with

955
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 1: more to come. Amazingly, Spirit Halloween's worst costume is not

956
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: the inflatable skibbity toilet, but it's pretty it's pretty bad.

957
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,319
Speaker 1: Did they have a mask on the skibbity toilet? Like

958
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 1: that's what that guy looks like? Because the face the

959
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 1: model a cartoon character. It's yeah, this skip strange, they

960
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 1: felt because the head of the skibbity toilet is not

961
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 1: It is just a dude with it.

962
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 3: Looks like Elon Musk got ran over by like a steamroller.

963
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,359
Speaker 3: Yeah you know what I mean. Yeah, lattened it fully out.

964
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah yeah, yeah. God, your kids aren't asking for

965
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:56,279
Speaker 3: a skibbity toilet. Yeah, probably my nephews, but not my kid.

966
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 3: That's what they're getting.

967
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, or made your choice, kids. But probably the worst

968
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:10,320
Speaker 1: costume we've seen thus far is a Chipotle theme costume.

969
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 1: They're just unicolor body suits that are meant to represent

970
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 1: a nap can fork water cup burrito and to go back,

971
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 1: And for some reason, all except the burrito cover your

972
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: entire face. Yeah, why does the burrito get a face hole?

973
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 1: And everyone else He was.

974
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:33,760
Speaker 3: The only handsome one, I think is why the others

975
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 3: are so ugly. The rest of the guys are the

976
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 3: skibbity toilet guy underneath the mask so exactly.

977
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 1: It really just looks like like even if I saw

978
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 1: them walking down the street together side by side, I

979
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 1: would be like Chipotle branded sleep paralysis demon Like, yeah,

980
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: why I couldn't have put it together because yeah, none

981
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,759
Speaker 1: of them really look like the thing they like. The

982
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 1: skin tightness of it feels strange. It feels like it

983
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 1: doesn't help in any way. Right, Well, like, what's I

984
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 1: get that?

985
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:15,880
Speaker 6: It's against morals, it's revealing, it's yeah, it's not. It's indecent.

986
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:17,759
Speaker 6: I think it is what. Yeah, I was trying to.

987
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,719
Speaker 1: Say it should look like old timey bathing costumes, very

988
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,399
Speaker 1: baggy down to the ankles. Yeah.

989
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like one of those things too, Like where

990
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,400
Speaker 3: I get that. On the internet, people were joking like

991
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 3: with like a really nondescript thing and we're like, how

992
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,759

Speaker 3: black body suit and like that's what they're sort of.

994
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:36,759
Speaker 1: Being like, Oh man, the Internet love that.

995
00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 3: Let's make let's do literally that because we're brands and

Speaker 1: a fake spirit Halloween costume bag that said Chipotle fork

1004
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 1: and was just a black body suit and they were like,

Speaker 3: No you don't, No, you don't know, you don't, that's

1007
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 3: not an idea. Idea is yeah, and it's and it's

1008
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,280
Speaker 3: not funny when you do it. It's funny because someone

1009
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 3: said this this dumb thing is now a Chipotle fork,

1010
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:29,160
