Interim boy kings, 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:10.920 Ken and Roman begin making their marks at waste Our 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:15.560 HQ that means walking in getting applause from everyone. The 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:19.280 c suite boy ours get whipped into line and they're 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:22.840 getting ready for their journey to Norway to grease the 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:27.280 birth canal of the Gojo deal. Lucas Matson requesting the 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:30.040 presence of all the players large and small, not just 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:32.959 the roy family, but all the kind of upper level 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.960 executives that they might want to keep or might want 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:40.320 a fire, as the case may be. And the timing, 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:43.640 of course, isn't great, what with Logan recently dropping dead 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:45.080 on an airplane Rosie remember that. 0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:49.360 Yeah, and Ken and Roman have literally been in power 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.000 for twenty four hours. 0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:51.800 Give ord Tank. 0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:54.840 It's bad timing and this is an obvious power play 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:58.920 from Matson, who is just doing the most this episode. 0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:04.280 The grieving pro pross is still ongoing with the roy children, 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:07.320 but Lucas Madson doesn't care about any of that, and 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.360 Ken says, okay, well, let's just do it. Let's go 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.320 over there and bleed the suite on the plane over. 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.640 Ken and Roman do the absolute least they can do 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:18.240 to make make Shim feel like she's part of this, 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:22.599 as they had kind of agreed upon soft agreed upon 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:26.880 earlier that they were all everything's gonna come across your table, 0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:29.520 as Shiv, you're gonna be involved in No, and they 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.640 are really not even trying to make her feel like 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:33.479 she's part of it. 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.800 This is a mistake that they will soon come to regret. 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:40.919 I feel as we look upon the fortunes of the 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:47.880 future Wastear Royco Company and it is just so hilarious 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:52.040 and bleak. How quickly they went back on that word. 0:04:52.120 --> 0:05:00.120 This was literally yesterday. 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:53.719 And. 0:04:56.680 --> 0:05:01.599 I'm just saying, we said going to and guess what 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:05.320 they're doing it. They cut her out to them. 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.040 To the victor of the spoils, and you know, there's 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:09.600 a piece of paper with Ken's name on it. And 0:05:12.080 --> 0:05:15.680 Shiv meanwhile, is concerned that there's all these stories and 0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:19.800 forubes and business inside her in Wall Street Journal at 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:25.160 about Logan about what a shit show his late reign was, 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.240 and she is like, what's going on with this? I 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:30.240 thought we is this coming from us? I thought we 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:33.840 agreed not to slander Dad as he is laid freshly 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:36.320 in his grave. And Ken Roman are like, you know, 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:39.960 we were crunching all these numbers here and we got 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:41.800 to get ready for this deal. What are you the 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:44.280 with Like, let's talk to Hugh Hugo. This is not 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:45.800 coming from us, right, And he goes like, no. 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:47.919 I don't know what you ever heard of this? 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:51.960 And uh and so that's over with. And meanwhile, shiv 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:55.440 Uh Ken and Roman say, if you want us to 0:05:55.560 --> 0:06:00.679 fire Tom in the most humiliating possible way, that off 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:07.160 to you, dear sister, draw and quarter him, you know, 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:11.240 hang him, not until dead, until he's merely unconscious. And 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.880 then we go in and we cut open his abdomen 0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:15.520 and we pull his guts out in front of him. 0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:17.560 We put it on a fire and we burn from 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:19.599 and then we cut him up into pieces and we 0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:21.480 put his head on the spike. We can do that 0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.360 if that's what you want. And she was like, no, 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:28.720 I don't know. Meanwhile, the old guard Frank Carl, Carolina 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:32.599 Hugo and the other guy are pinching their sides to 0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:35.400 see which one of them is the fattest hog at 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:39.040 the slaughterhouse. And as rumors of a kill list circulate. 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:43.640 Jerry tells everyone, settle down, listen, I get it. We're 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:46.719 going over there to meet the upper level GOJO people 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:53.200 and they're all like ex Olympians and they yeah, they're 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:57.200 like in their mid thirties and they're all like full 0:06:57.279 --> 0:07:01.960 bright scholars with PhDs. But they're all fucking soft because 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.880 they had that socialist healthcare and they never had to 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.760 worry about like going to the dentist. Meanwhile, we came 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.440 up through the through the mean meat grinder of the 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:13.400 American system, and we're fucking tough, and they put mayo 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:18.600 in their fries and we eat blood red states. Don't 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:19.960 worry about it. They're soft. 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:26.960 First prompt, Rosie, what is that guy's name? Harry? I 0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.400 don't know, he's just that. Okay, you're going with Harry? 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:31.280 I think. I think, what about Harry? 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:34.120 I know what it is, and I'm just gonna say 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.000 what it is, but I'm also going to say that 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.200 I only know because I had to look it up. 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:45.440 His name is Ray and Ray uh my. 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:50.240 My most indelible memory of Ray is from the boor 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:56.800 on the floor outing and I believe Romanian holiday. He 0:07:56.840 --> 0:08:00.200 shows up, I think wherever it was Tom said, sothing 0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:03.680 like spooky Dracula something, And he was the guy during 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.800 boor on the floor who was like really really into it. 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:12.200 He's like, yeah, I would you get that sot. Yeah. 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:17.280 So the Gojo confab happens at like this really gorgeous 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.360 resort of some kind Norwegian kind. 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:24.560 Of like I don't know. He seems to be very 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:25.280 comfortable there. 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:28.320 There's beautiful there's like a gondola going up to the 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.360 top of this peak, and then all the buildings are 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:36.880 like this glass and closed, like futuristic shit like that 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:40.640 the billionaire would from X Macino would live in kind 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:46.040 of now, as they're heading up in the gondola, the 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:49.400 old guard, Carl in particular, is like, okay, Ken, do 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.160 you want to go over the money one more time? 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:54.679 And of course Carl has visions of of of Lesbos 0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:57.040 or some other Greek asle like dancing in his head, 0:08:57.280 --> 0:09:01.559 and and Ken is like, no, listen, I understand. One 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:05.600 four is are absolutely can't go lower than this price, 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.520 and we want to go higher than that, and we'd 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:10.480 love one forty eight, but we'd settle for like one 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:12.680 forty five. And when they say one forty five they mean. 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:18.440 Billion billion, forty five billion dollar billion dollars. 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.480 Uh and so, and Ken's like, I get it, so 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:23.840 we'll get him. We'll get him about one to forty four. Meanwhile, 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.840 Connor is back stateside and he's dealing with the fact 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:30.280 that Marshall wants to wants to have Logan laying in 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:34.560 his coffin in a kilt, which Connor thinks is weird 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:38.120 despite the fact that Logan is from Scotland, was a 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:41.400 Scottish man, a proud Scottish man, and a supporter of 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:45.800 either Hibbs or Hearts And I'm not I forget do 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:51.720 we know if Romans still oads that team Jack is 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:57.840 co owner of either Hibbs or Hearts basically calls Ken saying, 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:01.880 give me full authority to tell Marsha that we can't 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.079 very pop in a kilt, and Ken is like whatever, 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:04.600 he hangs up on. 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.360 Him, and he also says, very blankly, He's like, send 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:11.920 photos of your dad's inn bombed body, keep off. 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:17.960 Uh. The boys initial meeting with Mattson begins with a 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:23.800 really awkward like nod to the fact that Logan is 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:29.240 freshly embombed, like not cold yet, and Madison wants to 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:31.920 have a dead dad Dick measuring contest with Lucas saying 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:34.680 at least you didn't find him in his BMW with 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:37.720 the engine running, YadA YadA, YadA. And when this gets 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.760 no reaction because it's a very very weird thing to say, 0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:46.679 like off like as a hello, he then goes, what, no, 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:49.079 no sympathy for Lucas, no awe. 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:53.680 For he is a true If you want already aware 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:59.040 that Scott's God is playing Lucas Madison as an absolute sociopath, 0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:01.400 you will be aware by the end of this episode. 0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:05.360 Oh yeah, So they get down to brass coffin nails 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.600 quite quickly. The boys, backed by the board want more 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:10.760 money for wast Star for various reasons. They think it's undervalue. 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:12.800 They you know, they want at In out of the deal. 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.240 They want the price up. Lucas meanwhile, I was saying, well, 0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:17.720 if you want, if you're taking something out but the 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:20.079 price is going up, how does that make sense. I'm 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:23.200 getting less and I'm paying more. And he says, what 0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:24.959 about this. Put at In back in the bag and 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:26.679 I'll buy it all for one eighty seven to fifty 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.400 to fifty cash stock deal. Now, for those counting, that 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:31.280 is a lot more than one forty four. 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:35.120 That is the dollar price for the each share. That's 0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:37.040 why I just remembered because I looked it up. So 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:40.199 it's one hundred and forty four dollars a share or 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.640 one hundred and eighty seven dollars a shah. But it's 0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:44.440 still like a fuck ton more, but just a real. 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:48.280 A fuck ton of money. And again that is that 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:53.760 is the expertise that market moves brigs to the numbers 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:56.679 and the context and the stocks and the bonds and 0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:58.240 the ethereum and the crypto. 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:00.920 It is a lot more. Eight one hundred and eighty 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.000 seven is more than one hundred and forty four. 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:08.920 Did you know that second prompt, Rosie? What is your 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:13.600 absolute basement amount of money to tell everyone to go 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:18.400 fuck off and and you would never be seen again. 0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:22.520 You'd just be living your life writing Gudzilla comics for 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:26.360 fun and doing whatever you want with your life. What 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:29.360 is the absolute bare minimum amount of money that you 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.440 would be like, I can quit everything and I will 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:35.320 move to somewhere and I'll just do nothing. 0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:40.120 I am an extremely thrifty person, so it's probably a 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:43.000 lot lower than anything else. But we're talking succession, so 0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:47.400 I'll put up yeah, if if I could, I would 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.800 take you know, I'll go in those I believe in 0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:52.960 no such thing as a good billionaire. I'm not going there, 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:55.440 but I could do that for ten mil. I could 0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:57.960 be gone. No one would ever see me again, no question. 0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:00.480 I put a million in a high interest the count 0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:02.920 because that's kind of thing with your market moves. I 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:04.840 buy a little house and you never see me again. 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:05.839 I have no social media. 0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:11.920 I'm done. I like it. The current as of March ninth, 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:17.079 twenty twenty three, Biden Harris administration, a defense department budget 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:20.880 is eight hundred and forty two billion dollars. Wow. I 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:23.319 would need about a trillion dollars to really settle down 0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:24.920 because I got too many things on my mind. I 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.720 too many, I got too many ideas. I can't settle 0:13:27.760 --> 0:13:29.760 down for anything less than it. I would go as 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:31.520 low as maybe eight hundred billion. 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.240 I like that. I go as low. You'll take what 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:38.480 the general average military budget is. 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:41.559 I think that's fair, right, I think that is fair. 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:45.679 Ken and Roman, now kenan Roman should leap at this 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:50.720 one eighty seven. Yeah, we want it. That's so much immediately, 0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:55.040 like incredible. Now, of course, do your due diligence. You see, 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:57.040 if you can prod him any higher, if he says 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.720 one eighty seven off rip, maybe he'd go a little higher. 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:03.280 But this is immediately it's a win. You can go 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.880 back to the board and the board would would be 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:12.120 throwing flowers at you forever, that forever. But because kenan 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:15.760 Roman in their hearts and their dark, shriveled, little tiny 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:19.560 pee hearts, don't want to sell. 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:22.600 They want the deal. I just don't want it. I 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:27.920 just want to say I have believed ever since Kendall 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:30.640 got the phone call from Matson where Madson was like, 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:32.800 if your dad pushes for more money, I'm not doing 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.720 the deal. I believe Kendall has planned to tank this 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:38.520 deal since then, and now he is planning to tank 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:41.400 it even more. And hilariously, these two are such fuck 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:42.960 ups they can't even tank the deal. 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:49.560 Well in there, in fairness to Ken, Madson did say, hey, 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.560 if you raise the price at all, I'm fucking out, 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:54.000 and then they asked they tried to raise the price, 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:58.600 and Mason clearly was not out. It's true, if it's true, 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.040 if if this was like pure a move, which it's not, 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:02.320 because they want to take the deal. 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:04.080 But it was a move move. 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:09.640 So the boys want to tank the deal, and Matson, 0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:13.560 I think understands on some kind of instinctive level, like 0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:19.480 a hog, you know, digging for for a truffle, understands 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:23.000 that he smells some sort of like emotional weakness, even 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.680 if he doesn't quite understand that that it's that they 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:28.120 want to tank the deal. He understands that there's an 0:15:28.120 --> 0:15:30.600 emotional connection to at and that was their dad's baby. 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:34.040 Their dad Logan fucking loved ATN. He made that big 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:37.200 speech at ATN. He was gonna fucking install himself as 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.120 the cock of the walk back at ATN. He's the 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:43.920 rebuilders that part. He loved ATN, and the boys want 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:46.400 it for that reason because his dad's favorite favorite thing 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:48.600 in the world. It's like a like his favorite watch. 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:51.920 And so Matson just wants it to fuck them, that's 0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:55.520 all he He just wants ATN to say, fuck you guys, 0:15:55.520 --> 0:16:00.280 and fuck your dad. He's dead. Fuck you. So the 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.480 boys now have to figure out how to not tell 0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:07.080 the board what's going on, because they would clearly put 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:09.680 tremendous pressure on them to take the deal. For her part, 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.080 Shiv is fine with losing NTAN it sucks. It is 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:19.080 against kind of her politics sort of. It's openly allied 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:24.040 with neo fascist candidate Jared Mankin, who is apparently like 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:28.440 directing the editorial over there at atn now. And it's 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:30.160 time to sell it for an incredible aut amount of 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:34.960 money and just enjoy life. And the boys say, okay, yeah, totally, 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:37.000 we'll look into that. Meanwhile, they're going to kill the deal. 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:40.120 And as is going on, there are rumors of the 0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:45.160 Viking kill list circulating amongst everyone on the waist side. 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:49.440 Third propt Who would you kill? Of? Who would you keep? 0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:55.280 Rosy Coe is acquiring not just Wastetar but also Gojo. 0:16:56.120 --> 0:16:59.720 You're acquiring both companies in a tremendous fifty to fifty 0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:03.960 cat Stark deal directly out of rosy cost pockets. 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:06.639 That's a lot of money I should have already disappeared. 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:08.879 I'm sorry, who are. 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.160 You retaining and who are you firing? 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:17.240 I'm I'm absolutely retaining. I'm sorry. I don't care if 0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:21.520 she doesn't have the I'm putting this inverted Commas experience here, 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:24.000 Shi is staying. I think she is the only one 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:27.600 with any sense. She I'm also doing. I like what 0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:30.800 Shiv does here, as we will get into. I'm keeping Carolina. 0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:33.720 I'm keeping Jerry Carolina. I like yeah, I like that too, 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:36.720 I'm keeping those three. I'm mad if I'm really doing it, 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:38.800 I'm making one of those kind of deals where like 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:43.320 I'm paying them so much money. I'm not having any 0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:47.520 Matt's in Roman, Kendall or gone, Like, go sit somewhere 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:51.120 else with your money. Do not be here with your sociopathic, 0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:57.159 terrible business plans and awful scandalous I'm bringing in somebody 0:17:57.160 --> 0:18:00.399 completely new to run it. You're all out, but gallo 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.119 of money, because that's the way this stuff goes. 0:18:03.200 --> 0:18:08.680 I like those picks. Here's who what I would keep. 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:12.600 If I was acquiring a Gojo n Wat Star and 0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:15.520 really everybody in succession. If I'm buying the entire succession 0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:17.639 IP for a tremendous amount of money fifty to fifty 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:22.560 cash stock deal, I would retain Willa and Listen Sand. 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:25.879 Okay, Winning over Sand was a flop. 0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:29.000 Okay, the sand wasn't right, among many other things, and 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:34.720 the acting and the writing were terrible. But in the 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:37.080 creative process, there's no such thing as failure. You got 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:39.720 to keep going like that. This was her first foray 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:43.840 into into writing for the stage on a big in 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:47.639 a big way, you know, the biggest on Broadway, the biggest. 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:51.560 Way, and and it was a good first try. 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:55.040 And I think that listen, as they say in the business, 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:58.119 buy the dip. That was the dip that stock is, 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:01.040 the will of stock is the lowest can get. I 0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:04.800 think it can only go up. I am buying Willa 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:07.720 because I think those second and third and fourth projects 0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:11.520 are gonna be better than Sad. I'm keeping Jerry because 0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:13.080 I think she's the only one that's good at a job. 0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:14.000 Yes, I agree. 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:18.000 I'm gonna keep Frank because I just like that guy too. 0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:20.760 He's a good guy to having your corner, that's right. 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:24.800 And I'm gonna keep Colin because somebody might try to 0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:30.159 throw on because I'm so so so rich after acquiring 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:34.959 the succession ipe and you know, one of these pinko 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:38.159 socialists might try to throw urine on me as I 0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:38.960 walk into the building. 0:19:39.040 --> 0:19:41.560 Okay, I just want to say, I think all your picks. 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:44.240 If you are listening and you want to know who 0:19:44.280 --> 0:19:46.520 to buy on, I say buy on Willa because you 0:19:46.560 --> 0:19:50.480 know something that we learned today that has been kept 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:53.000 fairly out of the press, and the narrative of this 0:19:53.160 --> 0:19:59.320 show and to the sidelines is the Royko Wata entertainment business. 0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:04.320 We are gonna wait somebody to oversee the storytelling. The 0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.200 movie we have going on, as we will get into, 0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:09.360 is not doing wow. We need vision. We need how 0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:12.080 to come in and tell my budget what to do. 0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:17.199 Ballon CG is not looking good. The robot spends too 0:20:17.280 --> 0:20:19.760 much time active. 0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:20.040 In the cave. 0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:24.000 We need to pump this up. We need a franchise, folks. 0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:26.080 We need a hit. We need a tent pole, and 0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:28.960 we need like the sequel, and we need the trilogy, 0:20:29.000 --> 0:20:30.640 and then we need the spin offs. And I think 0:20:30.640 --> 0:20:32.840 Willa is the person to do it. I freaking do 0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:36.520 it this, Listen. It's much easier, I think, to write 0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:39.359 for the summer movie blockbuster market than it is for 0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:42.280 Broadway with those snooty people. And I think you're right, 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:46.080 You're absolutely right about that. Kenon Roman counter they say, 0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:48.560 what's the okay? We take at and back out. What's 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:51.800 the price for the deal? Mattson says, listen, why do 0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:54.720 you even want it? It fucking sucks. It's propaganda for 0:20:54.840 --> 0:21:00.639 angry elderly diabetics. Which is all true, but he just 0:21:00.720 --> 0:21:03.040 wants it, and he and he doesn't even want to 0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:05.080 say why he wants it because he's just buying it. 0:21:05.160 --> 0:21:06.879 He's like, I'm just gonna make it like Bloomberg. If 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:09.400 you're gonna be simple, it's gonna be cheap, and it's 0:21:09.400 --> 0:21:11.600 gonna be great, and you guys can ask nothing about it. 0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:14.560 And then he shits on the Boys and Shive and says, 0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:17.680 basically like, listen, your dad was one thing, but you 0:21:17.720 --> 0:21:18.880 guys are just a tribute band. 0:21:19.240 --> 0:21:22.120 That's such a good insult that's up that would legendary 0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:23.480 succession insults. 0:21:23.960 --> 0:21:26.000 The boys and Shivs say, okay, we'll take it to 0:21:26.040 --> 0:21:27.720 the board, but of course the boys don't want to 0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:29.560 take it to the board, and that night, without ship, 0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:30.879 they decide to take the deal off. 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:37.640 Sal Sal Sal Sal Sal Kenda La Murta's chaotic motherfuckers, 0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:42.359 they say about they're like to their credit, they do 0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:46.040 talk about bringing Shiv in, and then Ken says, but 0:21:46.160 --> 0:21:47.520 do you think Pinky can dance? 0:21:47.600 --> 0:21:49.320 Do you think that she could do this song and 0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:51.240 dance required to tank the deal? And of course they 0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:52.560 don't think she can do it, so they cut her 0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:58.800 up fucking guys, These fucking guys while that's going on show. 0:21:59.400 --> 0:22:02.440 She's not a staying good She's not just like doing 0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:04.560 could see in the box that people want to put 0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:07.879 her in. She goes and meets one on one with Matton, 0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:12.840 who is blowing coke. Now, Shiv an expectant mother. No 0:22:12.880 --> 0:22:16.040 one knows this is offered coke. And if you'll notice, 0:22:16.040 --> 0:22:18.320 she just puts it in her hair. She pretends that 0:22:18.400 --> 0:22:20.040 she's gonna stort it, but she just puts it in 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:21.800 her hand. And I think that's responsible, and that's the 0:22:21.880 --> 0:22:23.480 kind of thing you want to see. 0:22:23.560 --> 0:22:28.000 I'm telling you this episode. I've always been a Shiv fan. Okay, 0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:32.959 but she's got problems and they all have. You're being 0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:37.960 incredibly toxic romantic partner. But I am now rooting for Shiv, 0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:42.760 and I actually have I understand that people are taking 0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:46.160 her arc this season in two different ways. Some people 0:22:46.200 --> 0:22:47.840 see it as she's being pushed to the side or 0:22:47.880 --> 0:22:50.280 being put in a kind of fem fatale trope that 0:22:50.320 --> 0:22:55.520 doesn't suit her. I personally love to see Shiv taking 0:22:55.520 --> 0:22:58.400
