That's an interesting way to describe 11 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: that process. It's also a mixture. I feel like a 12 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: lot of people are embarrassed too, and either people are 13 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: out here being like fuck yeah, I like these podcasts 14 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: and shows.

Yeah. I also noticed that a lot 23 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: of people are using this to like flex on, like 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: like Stands are using it to be like, look, how 25 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: many streams are on a Grande a head this year? 26 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: How many?

Yeah, good to know. 29 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: Was that information that she had tweeted out or just 30 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: like her stands, Well, that makes sense. I don't know. 31 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean this whole new way of like measuring who 32 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: the bigger fan bases based off of like trending or 33 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: view counts and things. It's such a product of like 34 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: social media culture where it's like I can actually quantify 35 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: how lit this is because I'm used to looking at 36 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: likes and things like that, and when that's your current, see, 37 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: like it can't just be like, you know, this band 38 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: is actually better than that band because your band sucks, 39 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: rather than like, well we got nine billion tracks. Like 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: I do like kind of the metrics, like when like 41 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: doing it for the individual people. I think it's fun. 42 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: It's a fun way to look back what do you 43 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: mean like that I liked looking back at my list? 44 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: Oh no, No, What I meant is like when these 45 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: fans you know, like BT yeah, and we'll go up 46 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: against like one direction totally. That's what I mean. I 47 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: like certain uses of the metrics, like I would be 48 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: interested to see Netflix is like metric. Spotify told me 49 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: I listened to over fifty seven hundred different songs this year. 50 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: Fifty seven hundred.

Yeah, 88 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: stand on the word. I had a similar relationship to that, 89 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: the song that ends the first episode of Righteous Gemstones.

Yeah, it's uh, 111 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: it definitely feels like an action epic more than it 112 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: feels like. I think the first trailer like recreated a 113 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: bunch of the scenes from the animated animated movie announced 114 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: it that way, but this one is like makes it 115 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: seem like it's its own thing. Yeah, I I don't know. 116 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: I had never seen the animated version, but I like action, 117 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: so yeah, I still won't see it.

Did she get mad 155 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: at him for not inviting her to his birthday party? 156 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. It was like a halfway between. I 157 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: think there were some headlines talking about him going back 158 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 1: to on SNL and then the one anecdote that was 159 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: going around was this thing because he has ten children, 160 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: and he told on Ellen he was basically saying, like 161 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: how men and women respond differently to him when he 162 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 1: is up that he has ten kids. And he's like, 163 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: you know, so Ellen was like, does it seem like 164 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: a lot to you or does that seem okay? Like 165 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 1: the you know, uh having the ten show and He's like, no, 166 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: that seems okay, And he said, men kind of look 167 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: at me like he's crazy. How much did that cost? Uh? 168 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: And then he said, and women, it's kind of like 169 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: there's something sexy about it. I think Eddie Murphy must 170 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: be doing his thing jokingly, but I sure, yeah, ten kids?
