Speaker 1: my good as you. I know they happened. I know
Speaker 1: you guys have some places to go. I wan't talk
Speaker 1: a little bit about Hollywood getting feeling like Hollywood is
Speaker 1: like Donnie, damn, what do you? What's your field on Hollywood?
Speaker 1: You know, it's definitely changing. He's going through a major
Speaker 1: transition period. I think, uh, you know, music, television, film.
Speaker 1: I mean we're seeing it before our eyes, you know. Um,
Speaker 1: I think it from my opinion when it comes to
Speaker 1: television and movies, he could probably speak more so to
Speaker 1: mute the music business. For me, it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: we're in a different day and age. Right, It's uh,
Speaker 1: it's a lot that I can say about this, but
Speaker 1: I'll try to be as quick as quick as I can.
Speaker 1: But I'll say it started with like Netflix, right. Netflix
Speaker 1: was a platform that disrupted everything. I would say two things,
Speaker 1: social media and Netflix st sure, but but i'll say
Speaker 1: thank you. I'll say as far as uh uh Netflix, right,
Speaker 1: let's start with them. They had this philosophy. It was
Speaker 1: all about convenience, choice and control. Right. There are twenty
Speaker 1: plus year old business people. Don't really realize that they've
Speaker 1: been around for twenty plus years, right, And so their
Speaker 1: model was all about how do we make it convenient
Speaker 1: for customers where they can choose whatever they want at
Speaker 1: their control. And so that was there kind of like philosophy, right,
Speaker 1: and so they did it. They started mailing DVDs when
Speaker 1: you had to go and get in the car, start
Speaker 1: your car, drive to a place, look around, then drive
Speaker 1: back home, then bring it back. Blockbuster was very successful.
Speaker 1: Netflix said, go to our website, sign up, will mail
Speaker 1: you the DVD, right, you don't even have to get up.
Speaker 1: So so so they were mailing you DVDs. That was
Speaker 1: the first and yeah, and then they had your credit
Speaker 1: card on file, so if you chose to keep the DVD,
Speaker 1: they just take your money. But nobody ever reads the
Speaker 1: privacy policies and things like that, so you're just like whatever, right,
Speaker 1: So so they did that and they were successful, and
Speaker 1: ultimately they grew, and then technology and evolved in advance.
Speaker 1: They were on computers and you can go on your
Speaker 1: web you know, whatever device you had. And then ultimately
Speaker 1: where people Hollywood started recognizing Netflix was when you know,
Speaker 1: they started putting out original programming. It was House of
Speaker 1: Cards and it was Oranges, the New Blacks that well,
Speaker 1: I don't know if dex was that was that was
Speaker 1: an effort, but it was House of Cards and and
Speaker 1: it was House of Cards and uh and Orange. And
Speaker 1: so what happened was they disrupt Like they finally announced
Speaker 1: how many subscribers they had, and it was like thirty
Speaker 1: five million subscribers right, paying like eight dollars and it
Speaker 1: was like two and eighty million dollars a month. So
Speaker 1: when Netflix reported that, Hollywood was like okay, and then
Speaker 1: they reported that, you know, you can watch these shows
Speaker 1: on our platform. You know, it was like and then
Speaker 1: they changed the game because it was like the shows
Speaker 1: looked just as good, if not better than an HBO
Speaker 1: type of series. Right, it was very premium and you
Speaker 1: had an a list talent, Kevin Spacey and all these
Speaker 1: other people and these shows. And then they changed it
Speaker 1: where they were like O binge watching watch all twin
Speaker 1: twelve episodes, right, and so everybody Hollywood is kind of
Speaker 1: scratching his head, like, hold on what just happened? Right?
Speaker 1: And then people started going and then it was it
Speaker 1: was word of mouth and people. So so Netflix continue
Speaker 1: to evolve. Right now, they have almost two hundred million
Speaker 1: subscribers right right now, they're bringing in billions of dollars
Speaker 1: a month in revenue, and so they have a ton
Speaker 1: of original programming that they're creating so they can keep
Speaker 1: and hold their subscribers and ultimately scale it. So that
Speaker 1: model changed the game for Hollywood. So that meant that
Speaker 1: people were less interested in going to the movies, they
Speaker 1: were less interested in watching traditional television because of that
Speaker 1: business model. And then you had on the other side
Speaker 1: social media, right, you had all these influencers because technology
Speaker 1: evolved where they can shoot on their Everything is on
Speaker 1: this phone, right, is an editing software program on Here
Speaker 1: is a camera and you have distributions, you have distribution,
Speaker 1: you have editing, you distribution editing, and you have production
Speaker 1: right so on on this one device. So as this
Speaker 1: started to evolve and the platform was available, it just it,
Speaker 1: you know it. It took eyeballs off of traditional, you know,
Speaker 1: Hollywood ways of how you watch content. So the first choice,
Speaker 1: right that people choose nowadays of how to watch content
Speaker 1: is on their phone. They'll go to Instagram, They'll go
Speaker 1: to all these different social platforms that that will be
Speaker 1: the first place they watch. The second option would be
Speaker 1: any type of what we call v O D service
Speaker 1: video on demand, so that whether that's a VOD t
Speaker 1: VOT or s VOD advertising video on demand that's like
Speaker 1: a YouTube. T VOT is more transactional video on demand,
Speaker 1: and then s VOT is like Netflix subscription base. So
Speaker 1: that's like the number two option. And then third was
Speaker 1: like cable TV. Fourth is like movies, and we see
Speaker 1: in front of our eyes, when is the last time
Speaker 1: you really go to a movie theater? Right? Nobody goes
Speaker 1: to the movies like they used to, unfortunately, and so
Speaker 1: it's almost becoming like this nostalgic kind of thing right
Speaker 1: right now, it's wow, the mute the movies, right, and
Speaker 1: so it's it's uh, it's it's it is what it is.
Speaker 1: But that's the day and age we live in and
Speaker 1: out you have platforms like only fans and just again,
Speaker 1: eyeballs are going in all these different places now where
Speaker 1: people can watch content. So yes, Hollywood is changing significantly
Speaker 1: because of technology, because of the new platforms that are
Speaker 1: emerging and that are here, and because of how people
Speaker 1: can watch content. I don't know, if you have anything
Speaker 1: you want to I think you said it. I think
Speaker 1: it's the greatest time in entertainment history. Is so many
Speaker 1: media outlets in so many ways to go directly to
Speaker 1: the consumer. So you don't need gatekeepers or intermediaries or middlemen,
Speaker 1: you know, to get to your audience or to build
Speaker 1: your audience audience base, and it's fifteen million ways to
Speaker 1: monetize once you build your audience based. So to me,
Speaker 1: I think it's a great time in media, music and
Speaker 1: television and music and television right this is a time
Speaker 1: where artists can own their art, exploit their art on
Speaker 1: their terms right, and get fair value for them. So
Speaker 1: I think it's great. What's up? But I suck this
