Speaker 1: I love my blacks. It's one more thing. That's what
Speaker 1: Trump looks said famously, that's where are the black folks?
Speaker 1: I love my BLACKSNA to find a different way to
Speaker 1: phrase that, we're gonna tip our cap toward Black History Month,
Speaker 1: but after that for dessert, to keep you around.
Speaker 2: The very first YouTube video ever, it's the anniversary of
Speaker 2: YouTube launching. Wish I had by the time machine and
Speaker 2: go back and invest in YouTube or something, or start
Speaker 2: a YouTube that's better, start a YouTube channel doing something
Speaker 2: because people got in early on that stuff made lots
Speaker 2: of money.
Speaker 1: Helps to be first in Yeah, for sure, what would
Speaker 1: you do?
Speaker 2: Do you think maybe guitar lesson? Guitar lessons are big ones.
Speaker 2: The guys that got in earlier, not even particularly better
Speaker 2: than anybody else. They got like five million followers, they
Speaker 2: print money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I suppose I could do something
Speaker 1: like that. I don't know, reviewing golf equipment for the everything.
Speaker 1: Absolutely that would work. Yeah, huh, I wish anyway. Uh so, uh.
Speaker 1: It is Black History Months, which we don't generally pay
Speaker 1: attention to around here. Black folks have been part of
Speaker 1: American history all the time and ought to be highlighted
Speaker 1: when it's appropriate twelve months a year. It's kind of
Speaker 1: a sop to the activist crowd to designate a month.
Speaker 1: But anyway, that's my opinion. President Trump celebrated advice surrounding
Speaker 1: himself with a bunch of black people who really really
Speaker 1: like him, and it was kind of amusing in a
Speaker 1: Trumpean way. Here's the parsident himself and Clip sixty Michael.
Speaker 3: I love Nicki Mina.
Speaker 1: She was here a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 3: So beautiful, her skin, soup beautiful, I said, Nikki is
Speaker 3: so putiful. Her nails, her nails like that long, I said,
Speaker 3: I said, Nikki, are they real? She said she didn't
Speaker 3: want to get into that, but she was so beautiful.
Speaker 1: What's so great?
Speaker 3: And she and she gets it, you know more importantly, frankly,
Speaker 3: she gets it.
Speaker 1: I gotta take a breath. He is entertaining, he is
Speaker 1: he's good at that. He's done that.
Speaker 2: He's done so much of that in his life. Oh,
Speaker 2: various fundraisers and you know, sales conferences and.
Speaker 1: Just banquets, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well he he had
Speaker 1: a number of folks to approach the mic and uh
Speaker 1: and just speak from their hearts. Don't let anyone tell
Speaker 1: you that this president right here, Donald Trump is not
Speaker 1: for black America.
Speaker 2: No text on tips has been an amazing blessing for me.
Speaker 2: President Trump has been an amazing blessing for me.
Speaker 3: I don't want to hear none you got to say
Speaker 3: about their racist stuff, and don't be looking at me
Speaker 3: on the news.
Speaker 2: Hate knowing me because I'm.
Speaker 1: Standing up for somebody. Doubt the man's back.
Speaker 3: Let him do his job.
Speaker 1: Who is that? That was for Leegia Cook. We've got
Speaker 1: a little longer form of her screen. Here we go.
Speaker 1: I love him.
Speaker 3: I don't want to hear none you got to say
Speaker 3: about the racist stuff.
Speaker 1: And don't be looking at me on her news. Hate
Speaker 1: knowing me because I'm standing up for somebody that deserves
Speaker 1: to me. Stand up, going, get off the man's back,
Speaker 1: Let him do his job. He's doing the right thing.
Speaker 1: Buck up off of me. And Grandma said it. Wow,
Speaker 1: she was fiery. Wow. Could I hire her to be
Speaker 1: my defender? I need Joe Gett. It's trying to tell
Speaker 1: you what's happening in the world. Back off it. Wow,
Speaker 1: that's hilarious. Sobody you like, like you know Obama or
Speaker 1: or Biden or whatever, just randomly selected folks. Here's here's
Speaker 1: the microphone. Yeah, I think you're doing a terrible job.
Speaker 1: You're an awful president. Of course you bring fans, of course.
Speaker 1: Oh I love Granny. We got to play that for
Speaker 1: the radio show tomorrow. That's too good. How many years
Speaker 1: ago did YouTube start? Michael twenty one?
Speaker 2: Can I wrap my head around what that means that
Speaker 2: YouTube started? So they were just a website at that time?
Speaker 1: Or was it an app? YouTube dot com? There were
Speaker 1: no apps at that time. It's two thousand and five
Speaker 1: and it's just a website.
Speaker 2: A smartphone didn't come out till two thousand and seven,
Speaker 2: so wasn't it an app?
Speaker 1: It was a website. Okay, you dial it up on
Speaker 1: your computer. There were other places to watch videos. What
Speaker 1: was unique about YouTube? I don't know.
Speaker 2: But this is the first video they ever had. What's
Speaker 2: a I'll look up thus that amazing stat of how
Speaker 2: many videos are added to YouTube every single day while
Speaker 2: we're listening to this, but this is the first YouTube
Speaker 2: video ever. Do we need any setup on this, Michael.
Speaker 1: Uh No, it's basically it's the co founder at the zoo.
Speaker 1: All right, So here we are one of the elephants.
Speaker 1: What these guys spent?
Speaker 2: They said, they have really really really long.
Speaker 3: Trunk. That's cool, and that's pretty much all.
Speaker 1: This an idiotic take in awful audio, and it launched
Speaker 1: an empire. He was saying, did you catch that amazing
Speaker 1: thing about elephants is they've got really, really really long trunks.
Speaker 2: I can't resist this, give me more, I said, first
Speaker 2: of all, I'm signing up for premium.
Speaker 1: Secondly, yeah, but what was.
Speaker 2: The event that really launched YouTube? It was in their
Speaker 2: first video, but it was the thing that really put
Speaker 2: them on the map. Everybody was going to YouTube. Oh
Speaker 2: then the nip slip from the super Bowl. Everybody wanted
Speaker 2: to find that and they became aware, Oh there's a
Speaker 2: platform that has whatever the hot video is called YouTube. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the nip slip really really launched you tube for a
Speaker 2: lot of people.
Speaker 1: Wow, her areola ought to be worth billions now. Janna
Speaker 1: Jackson's the figures on YouTube.
Speaker 2: Currently twenty million videos are added daily to YouTube, twenty
Speaker 2: million a day. If you want to break that down,
Speaker 2: that's blah blah blah blah. You put that twenty million
Speaker 2: figure into perspective. We can go to by time that
Speaker 2: doesn't make sense though. Sorry, chat GPT, you gave me
Speaker 2: one of those numbers that doesn't make any sense anyway.
Speaker 1: That's a lot per hour day. But the twenty million
Speaker 1: a day. Wow. Of course it's globally, but wow, it's
Speaker 1: incomprehensible obviously.
Speaker 2: And being first in or the first one to grab
Speaker 2: people's attention, as we were just talking about earlier, is
Speaker 2: just so big in the world of online there's no
Speaker 2: particular reason. I don't think that YouTube's bigger than a
Speaker 2: lot of other platforms doing roughly the same thing, but
Speaker 2: don't make a difference. I go to YouTube because I
Speaker 2: just same reason. You know, you buy Kleenex.
Speaker 1: I guess that's the good enough principle. I think you're
Speaker 1: on it, you like it, it's good enough, and so
Speaker 1: you stop searching for alternatives.
Speaker 2: My son and I I have the premium account, so
Speaker 2: there's no ads. So my son and I were sharing
Speaker 2: my account. But the problem is that he didn't like
Speaker 2: my algorithm for stuff that I like, and I didn't
Speaker 2: like his searches interrupting my algorithm. I was getting all
Speaker 2: kinds of stuff about dinosaurs that I just don't need.
Speaker 2: So he started doing his own YouTube searches, putting up
Speaker 2: with the ads just so we can keep our algorithms separated.
Speaker 2: They need to have a like they don't have a thing,
Speaker 2: at least I'm aware of it, like Netflix, where you
Speaker 2: can have one subscription. But you know, I got an
Speaker 2: account and my kids have an account all of their
Speaker 2: own feeds.
Speaker 1: That would be helpful, right, That would be helpful on
Speaker 1: YouTube because the other they wouldn't make as much money though.
Speaker 2: Right right, You're right, that is probably the thing, and
Speaker 2: YouTube is a lot more inelastic than.
Speaker 1: Your streaming services. I'm guessing, depending on what your lifestylele
Speaker 1: will pay what they need to pay. Now a lot
Speaker 1: harder to live without YouTube, at least to me. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would agree. I'm a big fan. Yeah yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: on it all the time. Tell you what. When I'm
Speaker 1: done with my newses and the work for the day,
Speaker 1: and I've been recording a bunch of music lately, But
Speaker 1: if I'm tired and i just want to space out
Speaker 1: and enjoy something, I'll go to the TV. And I
Speaker 1: would say, you know, I've got most of the streaming
Speaker 1: services most people have, but fifty percent of the time,
Speaker 1: maybe even more, just end up on YouTube.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah. So if you're old enough you can remember
Speaker 2: the time. He was an old joke.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: I got one hundred and eighty six channels and there's.
Speaker 2: Nothing to watch. You just flip through, flip through through,
Speaker 2: and it couldn't find anything watch. That never happens with
Speaker 2: Instagram or YouTube because it knows what I like. And
Speaker 2: I can open up YouTube right now and it's gonna
Speaker 2: be able to stream me until I get you know,
Speaker 2: have to go to the bathroom or get hungry, two
Speaker 2: of things that I'm interested in. When I used to
Speaker 2: flip through all the channels and couldn't find a single
Speaker 2: thing I'm interested in, YouTube has got me all kinds
Speaker 2: of things. It's something for better or worse, and every
Speaker 2: conceivable interest. I have a buddy who got into.
Speaker 1: Geological something or other from the like the Ice Age
Speaker 1: and how that changed the American West because he drives
Speaker 1: around the West a lot. He's retired now and he's
Speaker 1: just so you just watch video after video after video
Speaker 1: about you know, how the glaciers came down and scraped
Speaker 1: this and it left and unprecedented in the lake there
Speaker 1: in the mountains and blah blah blahy just for whatever
Speaker 1: reason he got into it. Then he would go drive
Speaker 1: and look at it and rubbish chin wow wow, and
Speaker 1: then he'd go watch another video. You know, guys, back
Speaker 1: in two thousand and eight, we played this clip, Hello
Speaker 1: YouTube on my cockaby.
Speaker 2: It's when politicians didn't quite know what to do, but
Speaker 2: the knew they were supposed to get on here.
Speaker 1: How to use it? Yeah, hello YouTube, Hello YouTube on
Speaker 1: my cockaby. That was a little clunky. That's funny. I
Speaker 1: have never for a second thought about I need some
Speaker 1: political content. I'm going to YouTube. No, that's funny for
Speaker 1: what we do for a living. No, now, they just
Speaker 1: force it down our throats and the ads.
Speaker 2: I uh, I don't have anything in my algorithm that's
Speaker 2: politics at all.
Speaker 1: No, No, who wants that?
Speaker 2: Well, actually, people I know who get up every single
Speaker 2: day and stream nothing, scroll nothing but political content, usually
Speaker 2: really wacky, untrue political content. But I know a handful
Speaker 2: of people that scroll that stuff constantly. Maybe it's because
Speaker 2: what we do for a living, But I got no
Speaker 2: appetite for that.
Speaker 1: Later in the day, Oh, last thing I want. The
Speaker 1: thing about giraffes is they got really really uh really
Speaker 1: long neck. Uh huh wow.
Speaker 2: From that to twenty million downloads a day.
Speaker 1: Wow uploads. How many of those twenty million downloads are
Speaker 1: people getting kicked in the crotch? Though about half I'd
Speaker 1: say so. Well, I guess that's it.
