Falling into sleep is a nice way 360 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 2: to describe it as opposed to falling asleep. Falling into sleep, 361 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 2: I don't fall asleep. I tread water until I sink 362 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: to quote, yeah, I think Billy would. So you said 363 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 2: you're not scrolling, But how do you get to the 364 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 2: next part of the book. It's been a while since 365 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 2: I've read a book. 366 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 4: But is it okay? It's a. 367 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 2: It's a. 368 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 4: Were you like it's a it's a left to right 369 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 4: instead of it up to down. Oh okay, okay, in 370 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 4: a way, I am still scrolling, but the interface of 371 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 4: a kindle doesn't have that bad light the same like 372 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 4: whatever it's called. 373 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 2: Blue written a book to my kid and he kept 374 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 2: trying to scroll to the next page. I feel like 375 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 2: that's the thing somebody would make up for Twitter kept 376 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 2: trying to pinch and zoom in on the word. He 377 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 2: couldn't understand. It's not your iPad. What is something that 378 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 2: you think is overrated? 379 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 4: I think independence is overrated. I'm like really anti being 380 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 4: independent these days. I I don't think you should be 381 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 4: co dependent, but I think there's a sweet spot called interdependence, 382 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 4: where like you let your self depend on other people 383 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 4: they depend on you, but you also go out and 384 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 4: have your own life. And I think that, like, especially 385 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 4: American culture is just like no, you must be able 386 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 4: to do everything on your own, and that's just like 387 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 4: not not nice and often not feasible. So I'm anti. 388 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 2: Independence, sure sure, sure not. According to this little declaration 389 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 2: of independence that I keep on me at all times, 390 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 2: we need a declaration of interdependence. If interdependence yeah, yeah, 391 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 2: belong to a club. Why they have friends? Yeah, you 392 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 2: just have. 393 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: We just have trouble asking for help, you know what 394 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: I mean. That's like where the independence mindset comes in. 395 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: It's like I don't need help. 396 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 2: I can do this. 397 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 1: Where that's to your point, Like, that's the most fulfilling 398 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 1: part of having relationships with people is that you can 399 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: be like I need help, and then you have people 400 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: like Hi, can I help you? And you're like, wow, 401 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: this is this is cool. I don't have to bootstrap 402 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: my way out of this narrobleson. 403 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: When that person shows up. I'm just smoking a cigarette 404 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 2: sand the person next to me.

Right, So, as we talked about before we 415 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 4: started recording, my mom passed away like two and a 416 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 4: half weeks ago, and it was horrible, and she died 417 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 4: from a very rare, awful disease called c JD.

There 425 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 4: were even times were like I didn't necessarily need someone 426 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 4: to do something, but I could tell that they would 427 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 4: just want to do Yeah.

This is when 475 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 2: you start getting the stories about the store that sells 476 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 2: merch from both Like I think it was like t 477 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: shirts from both from both campaigns, and every year, whoever 478 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: they sell the most of or like cups they sell, 479 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 2: whoever they sell the most cups from ends up winning. 480 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: Like people are just looking for any story that will 481 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 2: tell them who's going to win the election, and the 482 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: reality is absolutely nobody knows. 483 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I think, well, the thing is too 484 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 7: there's also this thing that the right is doing in 485 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 7: the build up to this election, right, there's like constant 486 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 7: alarmism from con conservatives or it's like illegal voting, especially 487 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 7: when you're looking at things like Mike Rogers, who's running 488 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 7: for the Senate in Michigan. He may have illegally voted 489 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 7: by claiming an address of like a place that was uninhabitable. 490 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 7: That's another news story that you know will probably develop 491 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 7: over you know, that coming weeks or not. But they're 492 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 7: also like, you know, it's about seating this idea of 493 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 7: the narrative that this this election has already been. 494 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: Won by Republicans in their supporter's mind. So if they 495 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: begin to contest things, they sort of the framing is 496 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: there to be like what the fuck they stole it 497 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: from us? But it's the anecdotal stuff that you hear 498 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: a lot of, like like you're saying, Jack, like they'll 499 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: be people like I was just with nine thousand black 500 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: cops and they are all voting for Donald Trump. 501 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 2: They just told me this is going to be a 502 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 2: huge win. I was with forty two cricket farmers and 503 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: they said they they went from Biden to Trump. This 504 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: thing's in the bag. Like, okay, I mean I did 505 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 2: this the other day. I don't know if we ended 506 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 2: up talking about it on Mike, but I talked to you, 507 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 2: Miles where I was like, I just saw this TikTok. Oh. Yeah. 508 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 2: I was interviewing people at an Arizona State Fair and 509 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 2: everyone was saying Trump, We're fucked. 510 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: I know, like, come on, it's over, men, Oh my god, 511 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: it's fucked. So Laura Trump was recently on Laura Ingram Show, 512 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: and if you know Lara Trump, she is the wife 513 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: of Eric the Lesser, and she also got her hands 514 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: dirty with a bit of anecdotal forecasting. And I just 515 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: want to play this because this is a very this again. 516 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: Oh man, hold on to your butts.

And polls like that I think are 524 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 8: absolutely ridiculous. I get slipped beverage napkins every time I 525 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 8: get on an airplane saying we can't wait to vote 526 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 8: for Trump.

Yeah, nobody carries pens anymore. No, 534 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 4: no one has the ability to write on your napkin anymore. 535 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 2: Why are they using the same communication method that people 536 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 2: who are being held hostage used to alert authorities that 537 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 2: like a refill?

Blowing it so hard, don't right crazy. 631 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,959 Speaker 4: I was so cocon utpilled like back in the summer, 632 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 4: and now I'm just like, oh my god, please let 633 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 4: this be overkilled. 634 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 2: Look it was. 635 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: It was a brat summer and now we're in the 636 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: hangover fall and we're moving to the right in. 637 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 4: Every rapidly, rapidly moving to the right. 638 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 2: Just purely listening to the same Democratic strategists who have 639 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 2: fucked the Democratic Party for the past, you know, don't 640 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 2: get progressive. 641 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 4: And it's interesting because it's like, in the moment she 642 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 4: chose walls, it was like, and now I shall mess 643 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 4: everything up. 644 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 2: Everything else bad way, pretty good rollout, and yeah, I 645 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 2: will continue to this. So anyway one race, I think 646 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 2: that should be getting a lot of attention, and it is, 647 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 2: I think purely because of the Senate math. But the 648 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 2: I think is important is Shared Brown's reelection campaign in Ohio. 649 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 2: So he is the chair of the Senate Banking Committee, 650 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 2: and that's a very very powerful position when it comes 651 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 2: to the financial sector. And he's been a vocal critic 652 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 2: of crypto currencies and the need for regulation. And it 653 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 2: is for this very reason that a crypto pack is 654 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 2: spending forty million dollars to unseat him. Forty million dollars 655 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 2: to unseat him. 656 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: Fair shake, which is the industries like Crypto's super pack, 657 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:32,240 Speaker 1: they have raised just over two hundred million dollars this cycle. 658 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: To put that into perspective, right, the next industry group 659 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,760 Speaker 1: that comes in second place in terms of money raised, 660 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: that's coke industries, you know, we know them, the big government. 661 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:49,280 Speaker 1: They've raised a paltry twenty six million dollars for this cycle, 662 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: and we're talking one hundred hundred from million from Crypto. 663 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: And it's right now, Crypto is accounting for almost half 664 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: of the corporate spending this election cycle. So they're tactic 665 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: are just to carpet bomb the airwaves with ads. But 666 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: in some races, like in Shared Brown's race, like it's 667 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: just NonStop ads and they have nothing to do with Crypto. 668 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 1: It's just they're just helping Marino, his opponent. They're just 669 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: trying to help him win as much as possible. So 670 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: aside from the airwaves stuff, sometimes they don't even have 671 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: to spend money to get people to bend to their will. 672 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: They'll just threaten to make it rain on a politician's 673 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: opponent to get them in line. So the earlier this 674 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: is from Slate quote. Earlier this year, Fairshake indicated it 675 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 1: would enter the spending arena without announcing which candidate it 676 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: would support. Soon after. This is like the in the 677 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: Montana race. Soon after, vulnerable incumbent Democrat John Tester, who 678 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,479 Speaker 1: has criticized the industry in the past, voted to pass 679 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: pro crypto legislation. So their big pet project here is 680 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: to try and get this crypto friendly legislation passed that 681 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: would in order to sort of gain legitimacy as a 682 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: financial product and escape the oversight authority of the SEC. 683 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: And this is again from the same Slight article. In 684 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: forty two of the primary races where crypto backed super 685 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: PACs intervened, the crypto sector one it's preferred outcome in 686 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: thirty six, in just two cycles of spending, crypto corporations 687 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: now ranked second in total election related spending and in 688 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: the over the past fourteen years the entirety of the 689 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: Citizens United Era. Okay, they've be just two cycles. It 690 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: took them to fucking hit like just to get to 691 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: second place. They quote they trail only fossil fuel corporations, 692 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: which have spent one hundred and seventy six million over 693 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: that same period. And it's not just Republicans that are benefiting. 694 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 2: Democrats are also getting hit with cash in other races. 695 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: If they've been friendly towards these kinds of bills, then 696 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 1: they are being rewarded with financial support. But it's clear 697 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: that Republicans are much more willing to help here, so 698 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: therefore they're getting a larger share of these dollars. 699 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just all the future is so yeah, Like, 700 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 2: if you want to see what the industry, what industries 701 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 2: are going to run slash ruin the future, you just 702 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 2: have to look at who is donating the most across 703 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 2: the board, and the future is going to be so stupid. 704 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 4: Like crypto, I just can't understand it. And at times 705 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 4: I'm like, am I just like too old or or 706 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 4: are stupid to just understand what the appeal of crypto is? 707 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 4: But what if maybe I'm not and it just doesn't 708 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 4: really make much sense. 709 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think for those in the beginning, 710 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: it was very idealistic. We're it's sort of like, you know, 711 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: this is a decentralized form of currency that can operate 712 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: outside of these you know, like the World Bank and 713 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: these forces of corruptive forces. And now if they're just 714 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: becoming centralized entities, it's yeah, so that's gone. 715 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,919 Speaker 4: But I think the other they're still being influenced by, 716 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 4: like the greater markets right right, and go up and 717 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 4: down and up and down. 718 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: And I think what's interesting here though, too, is because 719 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,919 Speaker 1: a lot of people have made money in cryptocurrencies, it's 720 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: more people are trying to get in on it, and 721 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: now they see it as a way to protect their investor. 722 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: It's an investment. So now they're now motivated to also vote. Like, 723 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: let me just play an ad. There's like a thing 724 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: where they're there. They have like things like I'm a 725 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: crypto voter, and that's kind of I'll just play this 726 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,240 Speaker 1: so you could understand. This is kind of the messaging 727 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 1: to people to understand, to say, like, we also have 728 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: numbers out there, and this is how we can sort 729 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: of get them. We can turn that into votes in 730 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: an election. 731 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 9: To be an American is to embrace the innovation. And 732 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 9: that's where blockchain and crypto come into play. Crypto equals innovation, 733 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 9: innovation equals jobs. That's why I'm a crypto voter. Don't 734 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 9: let anyone else decide your future. Make a plan to vote. 735 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: That's from stand with crypto, which is another pack. But 736 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: again and you and you see this with people that 737 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: are invested in cryptocurrencies, to get this sort of legitimacy 738 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: as a financial product would be huge for their investments. 739 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 1: So now people are incentivized with their own investments to 740 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: voter sor so it's it's a huge thing. That's why 741 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: I think big tech is realizing they have a lot 742 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 1: of numbers for people that are invested in their platforms 743 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: or use their platforms that then they can you know, 744 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: turn that into a formidable voting block. And yeah, the 745 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: money being spent is just like will cause it would 746 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: cause people's eyes to bleed twenty years ago even because yeah, 747 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: a lot of people are like looking at it, like 748 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: I've never seen people just put this much money towards 749 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: just getting one bill passed. And you know, the like 750 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,280 Speaker 1: to your point, Jack, you can see that other industries 751 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 1: are looking at im like, oh, you know, we used 752 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 1: to just keep like friendly politicians there and give them 753 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: sort of bills that they can vote on or whatever. 754 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 1: But now just to go whole hog to say we 755 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: need to get this one thing done and make everyone 756 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 1: bend to our will just may become even more so 757 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: than new normal. I think it was just happening at 758 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 1: a smaller rate than what we're seeing. 759 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:50,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and now with Citizens United, it's just open robbery. 760 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 1: Right, And I think another reason why people are always calling 761 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: for election reforms with this kind of thing, because Yeah, 762 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: it allows someone to just step in and say, I 763 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: will spend forty million dollars to get to scare you. 764 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: Are you ready to now play ball? And yeah, and 765 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:05,959 Speaker 1: it again seems to work. 766 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. Open Secrets did a dive into like who is 767 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 2: donating to the Republicans and Democrats this time around? And 768 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 2: like I said, one of the melon psions is donating 769 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars to Trump the which, by the way, 770 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 2: like that that is a great example of like a 771 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 2: thing where if you look at how money is being spent, 772 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 2: you can see the future, Like the money that was 773 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 2: spent by these dynastics, like these families with dynastic fortunes 774 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 2: like the Melons and the Getty's and all those people. 775 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 2: Like since the late seventies, they've just been spending, spending, 776 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 2: spending in politics, and the rate of that those types 777 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 2: of people have been taxed has gone way way down 778 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 2: to like now, the average tax rate of the top 779 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 2: point zero one percent has fallen by more than half 780 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,320 Speaker 2: to about thirty percent, while rates for the bottom ninety 781 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 2: percent of people have climbed slightly. So they are getting 782 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,280 Speaker 2: better and better deals and the rest of the world 783 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 2: is getting fucked, and so that it makes sense that 784 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 2: that these people are continuing to spend and get trying 785 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 2: to it's an investment that actually gets you in return. 786 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just I can't even imagine the need for 787 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 4: like more than one hundred million dollars, right, there is none. 788 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 4: Like I'm like, I'm not above a hundred million dollars. 789 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,240 Speaker 4: I'd love it, I welcome it, But at that point 790 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 4: it's like, okay, cool, Yeah. 791 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 2: You won't hear from me anymore. 792 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 4: I'm fine, right, I'm chilling. 793 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will. 794 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: Lay down for a long time. That's that's probably what 795 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: I'll do. Yeah, I mean, I think that's why it's 796 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: always just you know, like when you get like these 797 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: billions of dollars in wealth, you're just like this, there's 798 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: this isn't sustainable because if it's all about this like 799 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 1: explosive growth that that that comes from somewhere else, that 800 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: comes out of other people's pockets, or rather the inability 801 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 1: of other people to fill their own, you know, bank 802 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,959 Speaker 1: accounts with actual money that is needed. 803 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 4: So I feel like that's the disconnect is people are like, well, 804 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 4: why shouldn't people be allowed to make a lot of money, 805 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:19,919 Speaker 4: And it's like, well, they are, but there's no way 806 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 4: to make that much money and have been ethical throughout 807 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 4: the whole process and have like, had every single person 808 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 4: working for you been paid fairly and you still have 809 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 4: that much money. 810 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. And it's just a Lena Gomez and she 811 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 2: doesn't want to talk about being a billionaire. That's just 812 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: still so funny to me. She's like, I'd rather not 813 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 2: talk about money and being a billionaire. Please just. 814 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 4: Give it away and then you won't have to talk 815 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 4: about it. 816 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 2: That's the nine hundred million dollars of it, and we'd 817 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 2: be fine with you. The good will these fuckers would 818 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 2: generate from just being like, you know what, dude, I 819 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 2: only need Like I fuck, I don't even mean like 820 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 2: I think I just need eighty million for the rest 821 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: of my life. 822 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 1: I'm seventy years old. I think I'll be fine with 823 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: eighty million dollars for the rest of it. I'm giving 824 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: the rest away. The people would be erecting fucking statues, 825 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,359 Speaker 1: yeah for that kind of thing. But no, it's more 826 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 1: just like how do we protect this, how do we 827 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 1: create more loopholes to keep our wealth? And how do 828 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:21,280 Speaker 1: we again cozy up to people that are fine watching 829 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: everything fall apart, but hey, we get to keep our money. 830 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 2: Like Open Secrets has like the just these industry breakdowns 831 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 2: and like air transport donated ten point five million dollars 832 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 2: to Trump, like real estate ten point four million. But 833 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 2: I just like I can't, I can't believe that it's 834 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 2: now just like is Delta Airlines? Like I didn't dig 835 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 2: in deeper, but like, are these like major corporations just 836 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 2: like donating. Yeah, that's like Boeing. 837 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: Boeing is the large like in that category. Because then 838 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,399 Speaker 1: within transport there's air transport, there's also airlines, which would 839 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: be like the Deltas of it all, but they also 840 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 1: give money. Yeah, like ups, they they're all I mean, because. 841 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 2: That's just how it is. 842 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 1: You have to you have to get in bed so 843 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: you can get favorable looks when it comes to regulation 844 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: or you know, not. 845 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 2: Regulating, even when one of them one of the options 846 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,280 Speaker 2: is just like Nazis. They're just like, no, well, a delta. 847 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 2: We believe in everybody gouging. Yeah, yeah, I believe in 848 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 2: both price gouging and everybody having a free the freedom 849 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:30,720 Speaker 2: to express their beliefs. Exactly. It's a corporate kleptocracy. 850 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, what's happening with Milton Like the fact that 851 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 4: these airlines are literally raising their prices so that people 852 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,280 Speaker 4: cannot die, and like the government is just like, okay, 853 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,319 Speaker 4: no problem, that's capitalism. 854 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 2: Baby, Yeah, that's capitalism. 855 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 4: I'm hoping that they have the. 856 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 2: Freedom to evacuate and we have the freedom to get rich, right, Just. 857 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 4: Like, at what point will people be like, huh, this 858 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 4: doesn't make sense, maybe we should change this. 859 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: Well, I think that's where I think people know it 860 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. But enough people who have who have 861 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,959 Speaker 1: like the microphones to sort of shape public discourse, they're 862 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 1: not saying it right. Like the American Prospect I think 863 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 1: reached out to a couple of the economists who are 864 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 1: like slamming Kamala Harris because she deigned to say, like, 865 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: it's corporate price gouging that's driving up prices. 866 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 2: We need to get a handle on that. 867 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: They asked them, like the in light of what's what 868 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: happened in the aftermath of Hellene and with Milton and 869 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: price gouging happening, They're like, do you think that this 870 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:24,919 Speaker 1: is bad? 871 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 2: Now? Like is do you think this necessitates some kind 872 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,919 Speaker 2: of intervention? And they kind of were like, well, I mean, 873 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 2: you know, kind of like. 874 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 1: They just were not very forceful on it, which, you know, 875 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: I think is pretty revealing because, like the their whole 876 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 1: perspective is sort of aligning with what a corporation would 877 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 1: want to do, or you know, what the free market 878 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: should be doing. 879 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break and we'll 880 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 2: come back and we'll do our we'll do the sports section, 881 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,720 Speaker 2: We'll go to our sports guy for some sports updates. 882 00:45:55,760 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 2: We'll be right back, and we'ren't back. We're back, and hey, 883 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 2: here's a fun story. Wimbledon is announcing that they're breaking 884 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 2: with one hundred and forty seven years of tradition. 885 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 1: Stop there. I love that, I love it, I love 886 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: anyone going. We're breaking with one hundred and forty seven 887 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 1: years of what could it be? No more strawberries and 888 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 1: cream being. 889 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: No more strawberries and cream. They're now playing on sand 890 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 2: instead of grass. There they're scrapping the human line judges 891 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 2: in favor of an electronic system that's powered by artificial intelligence. 892 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 2: Well yeah, okay, in many ways, I do think this 893 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 2: is like one of the things that we should be 894 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 2: using AI for is like a scientific thing that determined 895 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 2: that just like tells you a piece of information. It's like, yes, 896 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 2: if meta needs to use AI to like better diagnose 897 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:08,360 Speaker 2: different maladies, please by all means to decode protein shapes, 898 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 2: like yes, great, to like tell if a ball went 899 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 2: in or not? What could go? Fine? 900 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: Fine, yeah, versus some like racist guy who's like I 901 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,320 Speaker 1: don't know if that did that did happen? 902 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 2: So that whole hawkeye thing, which is like where in 903 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 2: you know, professional tennis players can basically challenge a call 904 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 2: made by the line judge and then they go to 905 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 2: this thing called hawky God. Hawks are having such a 906 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:42,879 Speaker 2: moment right now, yea to hawk. They're they're killing it the. 907 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 4: Atlanta Hawks for the Atlanta Hawks this year. 908 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, those two things are big though. But and 909 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 2: then like it tells you if it's in or not. 910 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 2: That that's that's like what that feels like. Okay, that 911 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 2: is what computers should be used for. Of course, Wimbledon 912 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 2: has dabbled with AI in other ways in recent years, 913 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 2: and it hasn't always gone so well. They had an 914 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 2: AI online feature called catch Me Up that featured player 915 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 2: profiles that just like weren't correct. They were like this 916 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 2: young up and comer and it was like a thirty 917 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 2: six year old person on the like at the end 918 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 2: of their career and stuff is just you know, the 919 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 2: shit that AI is terrible at that companies insist on 920 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 2: using it for right, But yeah, they they first started 921 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 2: using Hawkey because there was this like controversy where like 922 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 2: early in Serena Williams's career, she was playing Jennifer Capriotti 923 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,239 Speaker 2: and like this line judge just kept calling all of 924 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 2: Serena's shots out and people are like, huh, Like even 925 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 2: the even the TV people were like like, we can 926 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 2: see like from up here that that was the wrong call. 927 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 2: So eventually they started using computers. Great, how could this 928 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 2: go wrong? So The Verge pointed out that these electronic 929 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 2: these ELC systems don't just capture how the ball lands. 930 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 2: They record a ton of in depth information, including players movements, 931 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:16,880 Speaker 2: and that data is incredibly valuable, not just to players, 932 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 2: but also to sports betting companies, so they actually make 933 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 2: more selling the data on like where how the ball 934 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 2: moves and where it lands and like how the players 935 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 2: move to betting companies. Then they make from TV rights. 936 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 1: Oh wow, wait, so what are they using the information for? 937 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:43,840 Speaker 1: Exactly just like better hands? Yeah, to better handicap matches. 938 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 1: Like I didn't even know tennis betting was a thing, 939 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: but everything. 940 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:54,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm like Marble races and the pandemic, the lockdown, 941 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 2: early lockdowns, remember Russian Russian table tennis? Still Oh yeah, 942 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 2: this guy, Alison, I don't know if you know, there's 943 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 2: a player who got banned from the NBA for like 944 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,280 Speaker 2: gambling on his own games, and like, in looking into 945 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 2: his history, they found that he was like taking huge 946 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 2: bets during the pandemic on Russian table tennis because it 947 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 2: was literally the only thing that people were still competing in. 948 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:20,959 Speaker 4: You gotta get your fix somewhere. Yeah, I mean that's wild. Yeah, 949 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 4: that makes a lot of sense to me, because I 950 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 4: feel like Wimbledon in particular is like we do not change, 951 00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:27,960 Speaker 4: We just change. But then as soon as it's like 952 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 4: but you'll will make money with this specific change, Like absolutely, 953 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:31,840 Speaker 4: we shall. 954 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 2: Do it, and yeah, and we will change. And it 955 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 2: turns out that thing we said before about not changing 956 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,839 Speaker 2: that was like before, yeah, that was part of our change, right, 957 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,399 Speaker 2: because that was like the other thing too. 958 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,880 Speaker 1: It's like you have towards like you must wear white, 959 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 1: you know, like it was so strict like like there 960 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: is so yeah, there's so much so into like these 961 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 1: really you know, like just rigid rules and. 962 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 2: Things like that that they're like, oh, well, fuck it, 963 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:01,880 Speaker 2: we don't need we don't need people standing that, we 964 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 2: don't need human line judges anymore, which is fine. I 965 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 2: guess a certain bit of like you're saying, like that 966 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 2: helps for when like people are making egregious mistakes in 967 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 2: calling like a ball in or out. But it's just 968 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 2: interesting to even like fundamentally change the visuals of a 969 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 2: tennis match, like you're used to seeing that that official 970 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 2: sitting in their big beach chair. I think they'll still 971 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 2: be still be They'll still be yeah. Yeah, it's just 972 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,760 Speaker 2: the line judges who are like in the back looking 973 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 2: at one line the whole time. 974 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 1: Oh oh so they took it, took their jobs. 975 00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 2: I think okay, okay, okay. And Wimbledon is the last 976 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:39,399 Speaker 2: one to make this change. 977 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:40,799 Speaker 4: So like, yeah, US Open had it. 978 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 2: Had it this year, I believe. Yeah. 979 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 4: So I can't think of a more stressful job than 980 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 4: being a ball person. Yeah, like at a Grand Slam 981 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 4: like yeah, and a major event like oh my god, 982 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 4: imagine if you trip, imagine if you missthrow, Like why 983 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,399 Speaker 4: would anyone put themselves in that level of. 984 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 2: Stress if you sneeze like when they're about to like serve, 985 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: can you imagine? Yeah, I would totally fuck that up. 986 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 2: Like I already don't know what to do with my 987 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 2: hands normally, Like it's just like always being on the 988 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 2: sideline just being like wow, a lot of people are 989 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 2: looking at me right now and I'm not allowed to move, 990 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 2: so like you just you would just like freeze with 991 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,680 Speaker 2: like your hands like here, I don't know, like at 992 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 2: your shoulders just like crazy. Yeah. 993 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: Well, and like I feel like you every turn or 994 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 1: not every tournament. There's always like those videos you see 995 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 1: too of like the like the ball kid or ball 996 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 1: boy or whatever just getting hit with. 997 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 2: A serf like one hundred and forty mile an hour tennis. 998 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 2: But I'm like, yeah, I'm twelve. I think they're like 999 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,240 Speaker 2: really good players who will like just like dish them 1000 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,760 Speaker 2: like dimes. No, look dimes to them. Yeah, that's always 1001 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 2: That's like one of my favorite types of sports highlights 1002 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 2: is like Roger Feeder, like when when like a ball 1003 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,440 Speaker 2: gets hit to him and he just like will go 1004 00:52:56,520 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 2: but behind his back too, like directly to the line person. Yeah, 1005 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:04,959 Speaker 2: but this just this quote the Association of Tennis Professionals 1006 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 2: makes as much money from licensing ball and player tracking 1007 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 2: data as it does selling its broadcast rights, Like that 1008 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,879 Speaker 2: doesn't even make any sense to me, Like that the 1009 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:20,000 Speaker 2: amount of money that is in sports betting is just 1010 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:24,719 Speaker 2: so beyond what I can conceive of that just like 1011 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 2: a slight edge, like whatever this AI is telling them 1012 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 2: is enough of an edge that they are paying the 1013 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 2: same amount that like NBC is paying for the rights 1014 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:41,640 Speaker 2: to broadcast the French Open is Like what how? How 1015 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:42,840 Speaker 2: is that? I wanted that. 1016 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: Happening across other sports too, because as the sports like 1017 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 1: sort of data analysis technology improves, you're getting like so 1018 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,799 Speaker 1: much information And I get how it's useful to like 1019 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 1: a team to understand like the physical like load on 1020 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 1: a player and be like okay, they can only do 1021 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 1: this amount of time or like you can tell that 1022 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 1: they're slowing down just based on these sort of like 1023 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: analytical points. But yeah, like if Tennis is selling it, 1024 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 1: then like is every has everybody got some form of 1025 00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: it too. 1026 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 4: My dad has been in a fantasy baseball league for 1027 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,800 Speaker 4: like forty years, the same one like write when it started, 1028 00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 4: and now my husband is his partner for better or 1029 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 4: worse ed. It's so funny because like my dad's roam 1030 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 4: of reference, like what's available. Like my dad will keep 1031 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,279 Speaker 4: being like to John, He'll be like, Okay, put this 1032 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,360 Speaker 4: player through your system, and like the system is just 1033 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:41,279 Speaker 4: a free website that johns about. It's just like a 1034 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,799 Speaker 4: website that's available to everybody. 1035 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 2: What do we know about this guy?
