This 3 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,560 Speaker 1: is short Stuff and we're talking about the magic Gateball. 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:12,960 Speaker 1: Probably know what that is. 5 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 2: We have one in our house, you know. 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 3: It's kind of one of those toys that I think 7 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 3: most gen xers, and actually, knowing how old it is, 8 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 3: probably boomers bought for gen xers, and now gen xers 9 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 3: are buying for their Alphas and Z zoomers, and I. 10 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: Don't know where millennials got left out, but this. 11 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 2: Is the classic toy. 12 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,279 Speaker 3: I assume most people have seen this, but in other 13 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 3: countries you may not know what we're talking about. But 14 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 3: it is essentially a looks like a billiard's ball. It's 15 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 3: about the size of a maybe a grapefruit, and it's 16 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 3: got a little flat side on let's say the bottom, 17 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 3: and in that side it's got a little clear window 18 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 3: with some dark liquid, and floating in that liquid is 19 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 3: a twenty sided die with a bunch of answers to 20 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 3: yes or no questions, with the idea being that you 21 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 3: ask it a question, you shake this thing up, and 22 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 3: then you see what the answer tells you. 23 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: Very simple that's it, and it is very simple. But 24 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: this I think that's the case with a lot of 25 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: stuff that just becomes a part of pop culture. Yes, totally, 26 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: there's not much to it, but just something about it 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: comes together and makes everybody love it. And the Magic 28 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: eight Ball's no difference. Definitely one of the more successful 29 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: toys to come out of the twentieth century, and it 30 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: dates back as far back as the forties as a 31 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: matter of fact, or actually the early fifties, but the 32 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: story begins further back than that because there was a 33 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: prototype that was created by a man named Albert Carter, 34 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: and he was brothers in law with a guy named 35 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: ab Bookman, and both of them together helped found the 36 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: company that would eventually go on to create Magic eight 37 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: Ball's basically based on Carter's idea that he got from 38 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: his mom. 39 00:01:58,400 --> 00:01:59,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a pretty cool story. 40 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 3: His mom was a self proclaimed clairvoyant and very popular 41 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 3: at the time in Cincinnata during the age of spiritualism 42 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 3: and use spiritual writing or psychic writing device to communicate 43 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 3: with the beyond, supposedly, and Carter was like, Mom, you're 44 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: the best. 45 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 2: You're so cool. 46 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 3: During World War Two, he built a prototype of a 47 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 3: toy sort of in honor of what she was doing. 48 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: That he called at first the Psycho Sere Syco dash 49 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 3: sw R, which was essentially what's inside of the magic 50 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:31,959 Speaker 3: eight ball. 51 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: Now. 52 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 3: It was a tube divided in half and each side 53 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 3: has that dark liquid and each side had to die 54 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 3: and you would turn it one side up or the 55 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 3: other side up to see what it said. 56 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, so there's the basis of the magic apall right there, 57 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: because that's essentially what a magic a ball is today. 58 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 59 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: So Carter went around and he's like showing it to 60 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: local stores in Cincinnati, and he hits upon one that's like, 61 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: I love these. I want a bunch of them. Not 62 00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: only do I want to sell them in my store, 63 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: to start distributing these, let's do it. Carter had big 64 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: time struggles with alcoholism from what I've read, So he's like, 65 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: I have no idea how to make anything mass produced. 66 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: I just have good ideas. So he turned to his brother, 67 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: a bookman, who was the kind of person who could 68 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: get things done, and they formed a partnership. A Bookman 69 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: apparently had They were close as brothers in law could be. 70 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: I think Bookman kind of had almost like a care 71 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: taker part for Carter. He said, when he was sober, 72 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: he was a genius. He was always broke, but I 73 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: bought every idea he ever had, and that gave him 74 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: enough money to keep going. So when Carter turns the 75 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: bookman and says, I've got this really good idea, but 76 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: I have no idea how to fulfill any orders. Can 77 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: you help me? Like I said, they formed a partnership. 78 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: That's right. 79 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: Carter got the patent and they named it Psychoseer Colon 80 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: the Miracle Home Fortune Teller. A few years later they 81 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 3: modified it a bit to basically made it smaller it 82 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: sounds like, and then called it the Psycho Slate Colon, 83 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 3: the Pocket fortune Teller colon. 84 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: We can't get it any smaller. Everybody don't ask. 85 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: And then in nineteen forty six they formed a novelty 86 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: company named a Labe Crafts from Albert and Abe their names. 87 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 3: And very sadly, I imagine, probably somewhat due to the life 88 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 3: he was living living, Carter died and Abe was the 89 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 3: sole owner of the company. And maybe that's a good 90 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 3: cliffhanger to see. 91 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: What happens next. I think it's perfect, all. 92 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: Right, We're going to take a break. We'll be right back. 93 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: So where we left off, Albert Carter died sadly, and 94 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: a bookman was running the company, and he continued making novelties, 95 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,239 Speaker 1: and somewhere along the line, the Psychoseer caught the attention 96 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: of the Brunswick Billiard Company out of Chicago. They make 97 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: pool tables, they make bumper bowling balls, and in nineteen 98 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: fifty they went to bookman and said, hey, this Psychoseer 99 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: thinks awesome, but can you like make it into an 100 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: eight ball? And bookman was like, you're talking about the 101 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: billiard version of the apol, right, And they were like, yes, yes, 102 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: we don't even know what you're talking about it at 103 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: this point. And so he said, I think I can 104 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: do that, and he got busy making taking essentially the 105 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: psycho Sere and building a plastic eight ball around it. 106 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: That's right, pretty good idea that this time it just 107 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 3: has the one die. You know, you didn't need to 108 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: have two sides because you just had the one window. 109 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: I never knew it was twenty sided. When I read that, 110 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 3: I was like, that's got to be a misprint. There's 111 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 3: no more than ten that thing. But I'm wrong. There 112 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 3: are ten affirmative answers, and of course if you've played 113 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 3: it you'll recognize these. If not, it says things like 114 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 3: it is certain or outlook good. There are five negative answers, 115 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 3: ranging from outlook not so good to my sources say 116 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 3: no and don't count on it yeah, and five non 117 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 3: committal answers like hazy, try again, ask again later. And 118 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 3: the idea everybody is that you're having a slumber party 119 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 3: and you're asking if this boy or this girl thinks 120 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 3: you're cute or something. I mean, that's generally what it's 121 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 3: used for, Like I don't people don't really consult it 122 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 3: for like big life decisions. But if you're a kid, 123 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 3: that's kind of what we were, like, you know, we 124 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 3: were doing with it. 125 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: If you're on TV in a sitcom or a movie, 126 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: then you might consult it for a big life decision. 127 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: But yes, yeah, sure, I would guess the average person 128 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't do that, right. 129 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 3: No, you just want to find out if somebody's crushing 130 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 3: on you. 131 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: So and then after that it's light is feather stiff 132 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: as a board? 133 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 3: That's right, because your sources said no, So what else 134 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 3: is there to do? 135 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: So Brunswick customers love this stuff. I'm guessing these are 136 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: like wholesalers, retailers of billiard tables, that kind of thing, 137 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: and they're like, I love this, Thank you so much, Brunswick. 138 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: I'll be a customer forever. And so a bookman was like, 139 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm just going to start making these for the general 140 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: public and sell them. And initially he said, you know 141 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: what this is, it's a great paper weight. Yeah, and 142 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: he sold them as a novelty paperweight for adults, which 143 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: is a really niche item and it was not necessarily 144 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: the best the best business move. 145 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny. I feel like there are a lot 146 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 3: of stories like that where the thing that ended up 147 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 3: being a huge hit they initially were just so way 148 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 3: off in what they thought people were gonna like about it. 149 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: Right, you know, Yeah, then that's a great example of it. 150 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: Yeah that New Coke, right, yeah, New Coke for sure. 151 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 3: And they quickly became part of pop culture. Once he 152 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 3: realized that teens love these things, they started to buy 153 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 3: him and he said, oh I missed I missed on 154 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 3: what everyone like, this is clearly a toy and teens 155 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 3: have slumber parties. I want to know if if people 156 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 3: are crushing on them, So I'm going to make a 157 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 3: million bucks selling these things, and he did. He made 158 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 3: many millions of bucks, I imagine. 159 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently they sell a million a year reliably. If 160 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: you own the Magic gate Ball rights, you can expect 161 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: to sell a million of them a year every year. 162 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 2: That's awesome. Let's get those rights. 163 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you said they're part of pop culture, and 164 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: I mentioned that sometimes on movies and TV people will 165 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: consult them for big life decisions. Let's call them mcguffin. Yeah, 166 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: it means that Magic Gateball is a mcguffin. Chuck, I 167 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: think you should explain it, because you're the movie guy. 168 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 3: I don't even know how to best describe a mcguffin. 169 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's something that of low import 170 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 3: in reality, but is has high import as far as 171 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 3: what it means in the in the film. 172 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 2: Is that about right? 173 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? It moves, it moves the plot along. 174 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not a fake thing, but it's not like 175 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 3: it's not like you actually found the plans or the 176 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: treasure map. You know, a treasure map wouldn't be a 177 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 3: mcguffin unless the treasure didn't end up being a treasure. 178 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: And it's just what brought you to the place to 179 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: meet the girl. 180 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: Does that make sense? No? You just you just channeled me. 181 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 3: No, no, no, I think I got it. If there's 182 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 3: a treasure map and it leads to the treasure, okay, 183 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 3: then that thing is in a mcguffin. That's it's a 184 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 3: real deal, like a plot piece or whatever. 185 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: Okay. 186 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: But if that treasure map leads you to Brazil and 187 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 3: there is no treasure at all, but what really happens 188 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 3: in Brazil is X Y and zka, then the treasure 189 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: map would have been a mcguffin. 190 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: But then does the stuff that happens in Brazil, the 191 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: X Y and Z you referred to, is that what 192 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: the movie's actually about? Yeah, yeah, okay, so that's not 193 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: like a boondoggle or anything like that. 194 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 3: I see now, I don't even know what's a boondoggle. 195 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: A boondoggle would be if the treasure map led to 196 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: Brazil and X Y and Z happening, but that was 197 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: a detour where really the movie is about getting to 198 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: the treasure. 199 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 2: Oh okay, are we talking about romancing the Stone? 200 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: I think inevitably we just kind of fell into. 201 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: That that was carta though it was. 202 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: It wasn't Brazil Cartagena, Columbia. 203 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that movie really holds up. 204 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: By the way, I know, I saw it not too 205 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: long ago. You told me you showed it to Ruby 206 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: and she's like. 207 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's right. I talked about this so fun. 208 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's a mcguffin. And back to the magic 209 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: I guess it is. There's a really great use of it. 210 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 1: I guess it would be a mcguffin. In The Simpsons 211 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: from nineteen ninety two. I think it's Bart's friend Falls 212 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: in Love where barton Millhouse are on the bus at 213 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 1: the beginning and they're asking the magic eight ball how 214 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: long they'll be friends, and after a series of questions, 215 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,559 Speaker 1: they find out that the magic a ball tells them 216 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: their friendship will be over by the end of that day. 217 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: And it turns out some new girl comes to school 218 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: captures Millhouse's heart, and Bart starts to get like jealous 219 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: that Millhouse is distracted from them and their friendship because 220 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: of some girl, and they end up getting in a 221 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: fight and Bart strikes Millhouse with the magic apeall later 222 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: on in the Treehouse. 223 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 3: I think I remember that one a great one. 224 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 2: Also, by the way, I know, we. 225 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 3: Could have looked up the definition of mcguffin. But uh, 226 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 3: I think that was a little more fun. We even 227 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 3: getting some flak lately on not looking at pronunciations. 228 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, a little bit here and there. 229 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 3: I think some some snarky gun Instagram was bagging on 230 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 3: you because of Navidia. Oh really, it's apparently it's Nvidia. 231 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh and also we got taken to test for tagalog. 232 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 2: Yeah you know.

Sure we could 236 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 3: have looked it up, but I don't know, that's just 237 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 3: not our style. 238 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. Plus I was confused. I thought we were talking 239 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: about Nivia, the skincare brand. Oh see, that sponsors the 240 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 1: ball drop in Times Square. They're also a chip maker. 241 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 3: I imagine that's actually via. 242 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 2: The short stuff out. 243 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I guess. 244 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: So.
