91
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: from Cleveland originally, and then I lived in like the

92
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: New York Brooklyn area for about eleven years, and I've

93
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: been out here for maybe five years or so. Oh nice,

94
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,960

Speaker 1: well they're almost all good. You said that like it

96
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 1: was a challenge and like yeah, let me introduce you

97
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: to a couple of people. You know. I had this

98
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: weird flashback when I got my license in New York.

99
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: I had an Ohio license. I remember going to DMV

100
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: and and I had all my paperwork ready, and the

101
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: person working there was like, Ohio people, they always got

102
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: it down, like they always got the paperwork ready. He

103
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: was like, I don't have to wait. I don't know

104
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: if that's an Ohio thing, but that's another thing. But yeah,

105
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 1: maybe the filter of Ohio people that moved to New York,

106
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: like a different level of motivation or like I didn't

107
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: come this way to funk up this d m V appointment.

108
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: I left Ohio for this, and that is the same

109
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: filter I'm dealing with because I'm not meeting too many

110
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: Cleveland people in Cleveland. I'm meeting a lot of people

111
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: who left Cleveland. Yes, but yeah, I feel like everyone's consistent,

112
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: Like I feel like all the people we talked to

113
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: that are from Cleveland, like, oh yeah, it's people are

114
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: chill people. Yeah. Usually people will be like, oh yeah,

115
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: let me introduce you to my high school bully. But yeah,

116
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. It seems it seems like a solid

117
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: place it's a good spot. It's a good spot. Yeah. Yeah,

118
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: see you look at this, it's a good spot. That

119
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: says that about their hometown. How are the Berkshires beautiful?

120
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: It's really nice here in the summer. There's a lot

121
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: of nature, a lot of trees, a lot of you know,

122
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: aren't called. I mean, I really like not living in

123
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: a city, and I really like being out here, and

124
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: uh yeah, it's really beautiful. Nice, sounds amazing. Have you

125
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: have either you been out this way before. I've been

126
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: to Massachusetts. When I was younger. I played a lot

127
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: of hockey, but it was mostly like playing in and

128
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: around like the Boston area, So I'm less less versed

129
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: in the outer areas of Massachusetts outside of Boston. Yeah,

130
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: I went to I went to high school for two

131
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: years in Boston. The the aforementions before we started recording,

132
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: we were talking about why, how it's a bad idea

133
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: to ever give high school students the freedom of living

134
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: in a dorm. That's why I was doing that in Massachusetts.

135
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: But I didn't. I didn't get out to the Burke

136
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: here is that much other than like once or twice.

137
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: But it did seem very pretty out there. It is,

138
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: And I did kind of that dorm thing too. When

139
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: I was seventeen, I did a five week guitar program

140
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: at Berkeley College Music in Boston, so I had that

141
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: high school kid dorm experience in Boston as well. Like

142
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: guitar guitar, it was. It was a lot of guitar.

143
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: It was a lot of kids in practice rooms trying

144
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: to play jazz or play really fast like shredding guitar,

145
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: right right right. That was more the vibe when you

146
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: watch kids go from like I like jazz guitar to

147
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: being like I funk with dream theater. Actually that's where

148
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm headed now. A lot of people had the dream

149
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: theater signature. I've been as guitar for sure, right right exactly.

150
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: That's what I feel like. There's always like that fork

151
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: and I grew up a big music nerd kid as well,

152
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: Like I always watch like the guitar kids be like

153
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: getting into Flamenco like shredder, ripping metal, or being like

154
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 1: I'm like five D chess brain prog rock shit. I

155
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: don't know what any of that means, but great, alright,

156
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to know you a little bit better

157
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: in a moment. First, We're gonna tell our listeners a

158
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: couple of the things we're talking about today. We're talking

159
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 1: about the cover upside of the January sixth ship. Uh.

160
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about all the stories about how like

161
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: various generational cohorts hate or love remote work, and I'm like,

162
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: who is who is behind those stories? They're wildly inconsistent

163
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: story Yeah, constantly seeing like this feels like an op.

164
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the the confusion around like what

165
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: when a movie is coming out, if it's coming out

166
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: in theaters, if it's staying in theaters, if it's gonna

167
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: be on v O D, all of that plenty more.

168
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: But first, Jonah, we like to ask our guest, what

169
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: is something from your search history? Oh my gosh, so uh.

170
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, I do this podcast with my sister

171
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: Vanessa called How Did We Get Weird? And I'm always

172
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: it's a nostalgia based pod, gusts. I'm always looking up

173
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: stuff from our childhood. And I found this column in

174
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: our childhood newspaper, The Plane Dealer, called Monday Moaning, And

175
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: we've turned into segment on the show where it was

176
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: people just writing into our local newspaper complaining about the

177
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: most mundane stuff, and somehow I was like, I wonder if, yes,

178
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: there was a Thankful Thursday column as well that not

179
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: as successful, But I was like, I wonder if these

180
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: are archived anywhere. It turns out they are. They stopped

181
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: doing it about ten years ago, but there's a bunch

182
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: of them posted, and so we've been kind of like

183
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: doing a new segment where we read them with guests

184
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: and get their feedback on them. But I've just been

185
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: going through all of these people complaining about you know,

186
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 1: like the school bus waiting too long in front of

187
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: their neighbors house, or like the mailman dropping a letter.

188
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: A lot of complaints about younger people on their cell phones,

189
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,599
Speaker 1: just like what context like there, like I don't like

190
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: that they're on them, were like they're on them in

191
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: the restaurant or on the just they don't like it

192
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 1: seems like a people are just yeah, I think the

193
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: next generation is just too two on their phone, which

194
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: and this is ten years ago, so like they must

195
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: be going, yeah, they must not be yet. But then

196
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: when we recently found that was really funny was was that, oh,

197
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: someone got told to be quiet at the movie before

198
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: the previews had started, Wow, I feel like that that

199
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: is pre preemptive shushing is like all right, you're you're

200
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: like working too hard, You're doing too much work in

201
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: your brain, and the anxiety that you've like generated, you've

202
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: like sort of created a whole story where this person

203
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: is going to continue talking through the previews. Just what

204
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: w don't you just wait and see? Yeah, so that happened,

205
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: and then the person getting told to be quiet wrote

206
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 1: this letter to the newspaper sting, this happened to me,

207
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,199
Speaker 1: and they were complaining about getting told. So it's like

208
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: to me, that's my search history is a lot of

209
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: reading these these letters basically. Yeah, Like whenever I'm like

210
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: in a like a smaller city, like I always like

211
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,719
Speaker 1: to look at like the most local paper because it

212
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 1: you really as like how quaint sometimes like the problems are.

213
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 1: And like I remember one time, like in British Columbia,

214
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: like I was in this like weird, like this smaller

215
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: coastal town and I found their local paper and like

216
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,319
Speaker 1: one of the main columns on the side was this

217
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: like argument between a city council person and like getting

218
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 1: mad about dog p versus dog pooh on things, and

219
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: it was like taking up so much space, but like

220
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: the energy given to them like this is I'm glad

221
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: that they're not talking about you know, police murders or

222
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: like ship like that, and it's just about dog p

223
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: or pooh. Is that the one where they were talking

224
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,599
Speaker 1: about like carrying a squirt bottle with them like that

225
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: that being like you gotta carry a squirt bottle and

226
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: like no, but I like this, what do you mean

227
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 1: like as a tactic to scare off a dog or something. No, no, no,

228
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 1: it's to you carry a squirt bottle. It maybe I

229
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 1: heard about it on another podcast where somebody was like

230
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: very proud that they carried a squirt bottle with them

231
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 1: so that when they're dog peed somewhere they would just

232
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: like with like or from their squirt bottle. Two. But

233
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: then like they were using that to like hang that

234
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: over everyone else's head and then like you know, like

235
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: be like you really should carry a square bottle and

236
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 1: they became like the square bottle police. Oh you okay,

237
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 1: which just feels like the way that good ideas happen

238
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: and then get taken in the worst possible direction. What

239
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 1: is something, Jonah that you think is underrated? Here's what

240
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: I think is underrated. I like, I think cheap stuff

241
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: that you're going to break or lose anyways. And I'm

242
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: talking specifically, like I just got some twenty dollar sunglasses.

243
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna forget them somewhere or break them,

244
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be okay with it. I like cheap umbrellas,

245
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: all this stuff. It's I like, I like having that stuff.

246
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: I like, I like just this stuff. I know I'm

247
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: gonna lose that. It feels less the stakes are lower,

248
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: um when it's just haven't spend much money on it.

249
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: Does that make sense? Yeah, totally love that. I was

250
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: definitely a sunglass person like that, because I was like,

251
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 1: I remember the first time I bought sunglasses, like when

252
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 1: I was in high school about like and I don't know,

253
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: some nose college. I bought Christian to your sunglasses because

254
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: I was trying like j Low or some wrapper or

255
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: some ship. And I lost those ships like in one month,

256
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: and I was so distraught over it. I was like,

257
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: I only deserve ship I get for free at a

258
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: medical fair. And uh now I kind of I just

259
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: recently bought up like an eighty dollar pair of sunglasses

260
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: and I'm treating them ship's like the fucking Holy Grail

261
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: right now, But no, I do. It is liberating to

262
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: have those like throwaway sunglasses for sure. Now are you

263
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: a pretty like it? Just looking at your background, it

264
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like they're ships scattered everywhere like that. So

265
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: my issue is that, like I have kids and we

266
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: our house has like an inch of cheap stuff You're

267
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: going to break or lose anyways on the floor at

268
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: all times unless I'm like constantly cleaning up. It's like

269
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 1: a you know, a snow, like snow in Buffalo during

270
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: the winter. It's just like it's gonna be everywhere, Like

271
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: you just have to make make your peace with it,

272
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: Like how do you how do you deal with the

273
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: accumulation of it when when you you lose it? But

274
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: it's somewhere, it's just like around. That's tough. That's tough.

275
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: I usually feel like the more I look, the heart

276
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: it will be defined. So I try to just kind

277
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: of take a break, come back to it later, and

278
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: usually it will show up as since I stopped looking. Yeah, yeah,

279
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: that's a good point exactly. And what you pray to

280
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: Saint Anthony, well I'm doing that isn't what isn't what

281
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: the Catholics do is not for when you lose some

282
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: it's Saint Anthony. Yeah probably, I don't know. Man. I

283
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: stopped paying attention to that pretty pretty soon after the

284
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,479
Speaker 1: first confession. I was like, oh man, this is stressful.

285
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it is because I remember like at my

286
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: friend's house with like the neighbors growing up that were Catholic.

287
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: It was like the first thing the moms like, I

288
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: don't pray to Saint Anthony. Yeah, And it's like for

289
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: my deodorant. It's just like just like I'm not gonna

290
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: help you braying. I got a lot. I got nine

291
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: kids in this house, Like Anthony, what's like, Okay, Joe,

292
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: I'm curious, what's another thing you said sunglasses and umbrellas.

293
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: What's another like liberating cheap thing that maybe people don't

294
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: think about that, Like it's like you don't need to

295
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: spend a lot of money on that because you might

296
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: lose it, and maybe it's more freeing to buy the

297
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: cheap one. That's a really good question. Those are the

298
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: first two that come to mind. Yeah, no, I agree.

299
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: Coffee mugs. I feel like you can coffee get the

300
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: occasional free coffee mug or hats like T shirts, you know, yeah,

301
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: shirt man. I'm I can't believe how many free T

302
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: shirts I hold onto. It's weird that I have a

303
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: like an inability to throw away a free T shirt,

304
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: like and I have piles of most useless T shirts

305
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: that I think, like I give to my mom and

306
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: she uses them as like dish towels. Yeah, that's like

307
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: about Yeah, I can't for some reason, I can't part

308
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: with a free shirt. What's something you think is overrated?

309
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: This might be a little controversial, but I think, uh,

310
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: cold brew coffee. I feel like, you know, it takes

311
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: twelve twenty four hours. I'm just not into cold coffee.

312
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: I'm I like, I like coffee a lot. I like

313
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: espressive drinks. I feel like codebrew is like the payoff.

314
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: It just isn't there for the time it takes. Mm hmm. Yeah.

315
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: I like cold brew for the power of it. And

316
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: I had a like one of those twenty four hour

317
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: like overnight things you had, and it kept sucking with

318
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: me because like, if I missed my twenty four hour window,

319
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: like well ship, then it's gonna be ready in the

320
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 1: middle of the day, and I that's your right before

321
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: a record and it completely like I lost all momentum

322
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: with making it, and now I just drink the concentrate

323
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: on cut. Then that's just easier for me. When I

324
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 1: met Miles many years ago, he was bragging about how

325
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: he is caffeine and sensitive, caffeine doesn't affect him, and

326
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: then I watched him drink cold brew and go clinically mad,

327
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,479
Speaker 1: like just completely, I'm like, I don't experience any change. Man,

328
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: You're speaking triple time. What the fund is happening? Do

329
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: you like? I feel like that is another like I

330
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 1: feel like I am learning about you, because that is

331
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 1: another like opinion of somebody who's like, I don't need

332
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: the like crack version of caffeine that is delivered by

333
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 1: cold brew. Is that you you like more of a steady,

334
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: slow drip, Yeah, And I just like that. I just

335
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: like the hotter drinks are like the more traditional I guess.

336
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: But you know, I've also thought at times that I'm

337
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: caffeine insensitive and I've never heard anyone else say that.

338
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 1: And is that is that as? Is that possible? Is

339
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: that like the real thing? It is? Anecdotally, I feel

340
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 1: like on Twitter a lot I see a lot of

341
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: takes of Like, yeah, I used to say that all

342
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 1: the time, and then I was diagnosed with a d

343
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: h D and maybe a reason why I wasn't vibing

344
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: with caffeine. But my mom is the same way, Like

345
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: so she would drink coffee like before bad just because

346
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: she likes hot drinks and likes the flavor. So I

347
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, my mom's pretty I don't know

348
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: if she has a d h D, but I think

349
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: it's probably some some kind of real thing with the

350
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: caffeine receptors. The I d h D thing is definitely real.

351
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: Like I like, that's how I was with nicotine, where

352
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: I was like I just need a little nicotine to

353
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: go to sleep, and my wife was like, that's a stimulant.

354
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: What the funk are you talking about. That's not it's

355
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: not how that works. Man. I'm like, I don't know,

356
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: septime gum, Yeah, but yeah, I don't. I don't know.

357
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: Like the cold brew does seem like the next level

358
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: of of caffeine that I I like a lot of caffeine,

359
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,719
Speaker 1: and I still try not to work with it too

360
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 1: much because it's it's too much with Jeffiel yet, Yeah,

361
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back.

362
00:19:47,760 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: We'll talk about some January six ship and we're back

363
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: and yeah. So there there's a story on the Intercept

364
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 1: towards the end of last week that the Secret Service

365
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: had deleted some text messages during the fifth and six,

366
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 1: which was a crucial time, crucial time, and they're like

367
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: beyond just them being like, no, you can't go to

368
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: the riot, President Trump, and we'll drive you back to

369
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 1: the White House, like their involvement there, there's some speculation

370
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: about their their involvement in in the like beat by

371
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: beat of this whole thing, that might explain why they

372
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 1: would have deleted the text message. So I I remember

373
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: hearing this that Mike Pence wouldn't get in the car

374
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: with the Secret Service, like they were like, we gotta

375
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,640
Speaker 1: get you out of here, we gotta get you to safety,

376
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: and he was like, no, I don't because if I

377
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: get in there with you, you guys are gonna like

378
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: whisked me off somewhere and I won't be able to

379
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: uh you know complete I said. I thought he I

380
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: thought he was just doing it like I think you

381
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: guys are gonna kill me, Like my my brain is

382
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: built out of pieces from action movies that I watched

383
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: when I was a kid, so like that that was

384
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: the version that I got, is that he gets in

385
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: there and then they use a garret him or some ship,

386
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,719
Speaker 1: you know, just a nice little tweet silencer and then um,

387
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: but that doesn't really make sense. That's not how like

388
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: a coup in the United States would go down unless

389
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 1: Steven Seagal was involved, and so that at it seems

390
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: like maybe a more reasonable narrative is that they let

391
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 1: the mob create an unsafe environment at the Capitol. They

392
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: come in there like we gotta get you out of here,

393
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 1: and then that buys them time to then you know,

394
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: do whatever the next step of the non certification cooing,

395
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: which makes like that that's the first version of this

396
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: where I'm like, oh, if you were doing a planned out,

397
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: carefully planned and not like a haphazard bullshit thing like

398
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: that actually starts to make sense to me, right, And

399
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: I mean there's all that coinsides with like Chuck Grassley

400
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: on the January five thing like oh yeah, Mike President

401
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 1: might vice president and Mike president vice pemps vice PEPSI

402
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: is not like suggested that he would skip the certification

403
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 1: on January five, and people are like, wait, why did

404
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: he say that on the fifth being like yeah, he

405
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 1: might not be there, and it's like and I might

406
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: have to do it, like wait, hold on what and

407
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: then he like backtracked. So there's a lot of it

408
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: around it where constantly we're just being like so many

409
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 1: people knew about what the funk was gonna go down

410
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: and open their mouths at the dumbest times that you're

411
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: just kind of be like, Okay, there's so many more

412
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: questions than answers, but clearly you can see that people

413
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: there was a group of people who knew what was

414
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,239
Speaker 1: going to happen and others that had less of an

415
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: idea for sure. Yeah, it's just I don't know. There's

416
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 1: also like DHS officials tweeting like jan six is gonna

417
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: be crazy l O L like right before and like

418
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 1: DHS is like the that's who over overseas, I think

419
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: the the Secret Service, it's like the people within the

420
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: department that would have been involved in like all of

421
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: this ship going down. So I don't know, like I

422
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: get I get the like sort of more stylist position

423
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: on January six, being like it doesn't matter, they were

424
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: never like we were never in danger of this group

425
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 1: of dipshits overthrowing the US government. They're idiots. It's nothing

426
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: compared to what we've done in other countries elections, which

427
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 1: is all like seems true. I'm just not sure how

428
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: it makes sense to like be dismissive of the investigation

429
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: before we know all the facts. And it does seem

430
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 1: like the more we learn, the more it's like, oh, okay,

431
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: I can at least see what they were trying to

432
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: do here, and the definitely feels like the sort of

433
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: thing that you wouldn't want somebody to do if they're

434
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: going to be also the next president of the United States. Yeah,

435
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's just, uh, it's just I

436
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 1: think the part that makes it tough is like, despite

437
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: everything that was even known, it's like we don't even

438
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: have like a justice system that like moves to correct it.

439
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: So a lot of people are like, yeah, we know,

440
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: now do the part that shows there are consequences, like

441
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: for so many people, they don't need to be convinced

442
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: much more. And I think that's part of for me

443
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 1: the frustration, like seeing all this and I'm like, I'm

444
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 1: really curiously what actual consequences are born out of all this,

445
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: because it's not going to be enough to be like, oh,

446
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 1: they did that, that's fucking That's the most frightening part

447
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: of this is that it ends with oh and that's it.

448
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: And you know, as we see like Trump, you know,

449
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 1: getting ready to announce like being a candidate, I'm also curious,

450
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: like is the media really just going to talk about

451
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 1: this guy like he didn't do all this ship and

452
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: just like the coverage about his candidacy is just gonna

453
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: be like and he's going for it again rather than

454
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: this fucking guy tried to steal the election last time?

455
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: Why are we talking about him? But you know, I

456
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 1: think to be fair and balanced or CNN doesnt want

457
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: to be too extreme, they'll just be like, yeah, he's

458
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 1: going for another bite of the apple and President Trump

459
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,880
Speaker 1: going for another by the app Like yeah, there's so much.

460
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: I mean, this is like how the coverage are like

461
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: Row being overturned is similarly just like so middle of

462
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: the road and like gamified and like, well, this is

463
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: bad optics for the Republicans and as like this is

464
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: bad for humans right now, like you're that you're talking

465
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: about a ten year old human being that you're talking about,

466
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 1: and you're you're making it into like a story about

467
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: bad optics. Man, Yeah, like an episode of Scandal or

468
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 1: something like the Livi of Hope couldn't even save them.

469
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't think that's a necessary analysis and

470
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: all of this, but sure, but yeah, I think just

471
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: looking at all just the back and forth with the

472
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 1: Secret Service, you know, and even the fact that Joe

473
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: Biden when he came in office, they were like we

474
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: need to like fucking completely over like flip these like

475
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 1: sub these guys the funk out. Like they already had

476
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: question concerns about the people who were working with Trump,

477
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 1: working with Biden. So there's a lot of stink uh

478
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: coming out of there. And yeah, just like the process

479
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: of like the Inspector General being like, hey, we need

480
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: those texts and then they're like, oh yeah one second,

481
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: oh we deleted them just now after you asked for them.

482
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 1: That's a it's a bad look, as they'd say, great

483
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: for their optics. The entire like Watergate scandal was about

484
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: the cover up, Like that's the whole thing, was the

485
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: cover up. That was what everybody was so outreach about,

486
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 1: Like this is John I don't know if you if

487
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: you're with me on this one. But I've always said

488
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: nix and not so bad. I'm a big nixing guy. No,

489
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 1: But like when you look at like the how far

490
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: we've come where, like we we have nothing but evidence

491
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: of like a cover up happening here, and like that's

492
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,959
Speaker 1: not even like the story people are like even aware

493
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: of or focused on is like yeah, yeah, yeah, it's

494
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: I haven't paid that much attention to it. I've seen

495
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: stuff here there, but I'm curious, like, yeah, what else.

496
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: It just seems like I don't know what would be

497
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: a big deal at this point right right, like because

498
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: at last headline I saw it was about him trying

499
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 1: to grab the steering wheel of this car, and they're like, oh,

500
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: this is like a big bombshell, and then it's like

501
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: everyone's like okay, and now it's they're racing the tech.

502
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 1: It's like I just feel like they're going to keep

503
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 1: digging stuff up. Where does it go exactly? Yeah, I

504
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know if any of this will

505
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: really ultimately have any impact. I have no idea it

506
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 1: and it bothers me because I saw like an OpEd

507
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: last week that was like saying like if the d

508
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 1: o J doesn't do anything, it's gonna it's gonna harm

509
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: their legitimacy. And I'm like, are are you hearing ship

510
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: that they're not gonna do anything, And that's why you're

511
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 1: writing this OpEd to try and like signal the people

512
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: that like they might fucking not, you know, really bring

513
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: the full weight of the legal system down on these people.

514
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: So I guess that's really that's really all the this

515
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: is building up to. It's like, yeah, I don't I

516
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 1: don't need to. Like I saw the Titanic sink, like

517
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,880
Speaker 1: and yeah, I'm glad to know like what happened inside

518
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: the Titanic as it was sinking, but it was clear

519
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 1: what happened from the outside enough, And I'm like, what's

520
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: going on with that now? Yeah, but yeah we wait

521
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: with bated press. Yeah, if you it does feel like

522
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: if they don't do anything, if he just like wins

523
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: again somehow, like we like that we have enough evidence

524
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: to be like he's never leaving office again, Like he's

525
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: not just gonna do the dumb bad version of the

526
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: coup this time, Like we we know for a fact

527
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: now like he is going to will never have another

528
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: fair election as long as he's alive. Like so, I

529
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe maybe that's something to bring up as

530
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: you're talking through this, because people like the Democrats were

531
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: so happy last week that like Biden was still up

532
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: three points on Trump. It's like that's that's the battle.

533
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: Who could care less? Alright, let's talk about another failing

534
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 1: of the mainstream media. And this is, uh the the

535
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: way that they're covering like various generations loving or hating

536
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: remote work during a pandemic. I mean this has been

537
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 1: I feel like one of the main like not main topics,

538
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: but one of the bigger sort of societal shifts that

539
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: came out of the pandemic. That's like constantly debated off

540
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: like his remote work good? Is it bad? Is it

541
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: killing us? Is it? Like? Do we not know what

542
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: our own faces look like? Because of zoom? And like

543
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: constantly here about these different things like zoom fatigue. We've

544
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 1: covered all those things. What'd you say? So I'm confused

545
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: about that last one, not knowing what our face looks like?

546
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: People just like talking about how generally like people are

547
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: like losing like certain mirror neurons aren't firing when you

548
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: look at like a fucking zoom called too long. There's

549
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: like a whole there's like some other urological studies about it.

550
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: And I say that like flippantly, but it was sort

551
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: of like your brain is kind of like not using

552
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 1: certain things that could be when you're just looking like

553
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: they're saying, like it affects like your ability to know

554
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: where you are in space and time, like especially when

555
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: talking to people in other time zones. Your mind is

556
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: trying to place your existence in physical space, like in

557
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 1: relation to a video, and like they're saying, like it's

558
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: like running your cell phone on like GPS location mode,

559
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: but there's no cell service, so just draining your battery

560
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: trying to figure out where you are. Oh so it's

561
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: like a subtle thing. But again we hear constantly like

562
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: is it the pros cons who they love it? Do

563
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: they hate it? And you know, in the beginning, it

564
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: was clear that a lot of people that had the

565
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: ability or privilege to work remotely enjoyed doing. In fact,

566
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: like it was like a big thing that people can

567
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 1: like pointed to when people left their jobs, was people

568
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: wanted to continue to work remotely or have the flexibility

569
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: because you know, the pandemic has changed all these things.

570
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 1: But then as like the pandemic, you know, raided don

571
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: it was also clear that like the boss class of

572
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: people were starting to like unite in their sort of

573
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: like message of like, hey, let's let's get back to

574
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: the office, folks, how about that And wouldn't that be fun?

575
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: Like back to normal? I know, the case numbers aren't

576
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: going down, but like what about if we went back

577
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: to the office and it's I think, you know, it's

578
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: clear that the commercial real estate industry clearly being hit

579
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: by the lack of people in traditional office settings, and they,

580
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: along with like other business interest groups were like really

581
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 1: pushing hard like we saw them, like whether it's from

582
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: the government or the media of like this whole idea

583
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: like we're back, baby, Like what but today you can

584
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: like read pieces about remote work, Like in Slate there

585
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: was one about like, you know, as as a black employee,

586
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: remote work has done wonders from my mental health because

587
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: I don't have I no longer have to deal with

588
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: like dumb, fucking racist microaggressions or just weird bullshit that's

589
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: born out of like having to be a black person

590
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: in a workplace, and that comes along with you know,

591
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: people's unneeded analysis or suspicions, etcetera. Well, you can also

592
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: find like articles that you're saying everyone hates it. And

593
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: I want to point a Business Insider for a second.

594
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: In April, they had a piece that was called return

595
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: to Office is driving gen Z to Quit m and

596
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: it talked about how much gen Z workers again hated

597
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: this push to return to the office. It was they

598
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: weren't agreeing with it. They didn't like having their boss

599
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: be like, I don't give a funk. If you're gonna

600
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: get sick, man, you have to come back so I

601
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: can just like watch you, but then cold and ask

602
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: you to get in here to look at something on

603
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: my computer really quick that I think is cool that

604
00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: like check out this meme? Is that am and I

605
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,479
Speaker 1: mean that I remember having a boss it was like, hey,

606
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: check out this YouTube video. I'm like, you're fucking way

607
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: too old for to be calling you in your office

608
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: to check out a dumb YouTube video. Anyway, all I

609
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: have to say is then at the end of last week,

610
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: Business Inside to put out a new piece called gen

611
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: Z actually hates working from home? What like this is

612
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: really like? It turns out they hit it. I like,

613
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: how they said, actually, you know, like as if they

614
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: know what they said in April, like actually, actually, gen

615
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 1: Z actually like working from home. And I'm like, what

616
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: the fund is the thrust of this piece that they

617
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: are pointing to surveys that showed that like gen Z

618
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: or like the least interested age cohort in remote work

619
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: when you compare workers in their thirties and older. But

620
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: like many commenters like on the article and just like

621
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: on Twitter and stuff, We're like, this ship is such

622
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: weird bullshit. They're like, yeah, I want to like extend

623
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: my work day by hours to go to a place

624
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: that's like terribly cramped in the middle of a pandemic. No,

625
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: that's what I want. In the first sentence here just

626
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: said I want I want to get you guys paying

627
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 1: on what they were going for here for the youngest

628
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 1: employees working from home? Isn't everything? Are they doing like

629
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: the gen Z thing, Like, oh my god, that is everything?

630
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: Like are they like trying to like a play on

631
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: that that went right over my head? That that really

632
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: is bad bad? Yeah? What they're they're all pointing like

633
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: articles like this, And there's another one that was in

634
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 1: Fortune magazine, which we all know is the official outlet

635
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: of the Proletarian revolution Um that they point to a

636
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: survey of high school students to reinforce this argument. This

637
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: they're all drawing from this, this like one servant and

638
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna quote it quote less than a quarter of

639
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: gen z or Is feel remote work is quote very

640
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 1: or extremely important to them, per the National Society of

641
00:34:54,680 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: High School Scholars Career Interest Survey, the for which pulled

642
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 1: nearly eleven thousand five high school and college aged individuals,

643
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: but mostly high school says that remote schooling during the

644
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: pandemic may have turned swaths of gen Z off from

645
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: remote working. So I'm like, that's not a good sample

646
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: size of the gen Z workforce. Are kids who spent

647
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: life never peek years of their like high school life

648
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,280
Speaker 1: indoors me Like, hey, you want a situation that mirrors

649
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,919
Speaker 1: that as a work thing, And they're like no, right, yeah,

650
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: from like I would get it, Like if you were

651
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 1: younger and you had you want to go to college

652
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: in person, right, and you had to do most of

653
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: your colleagues experience online, maybe you would be like, when

654
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 1: I get in the workforce, I want to be able

655
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: to interact with people and make friends I get that's

656
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: like the socialization aspect, but yeah, I mean it also

657
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: just seems funny when these places make like a sweeping

658
00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: generalizations about like a whole generation of people want this

659
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: or that, when it's like there's so much nuance and

660
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 1: so much going on there, right, just like the misrepresentation

661
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: between like the opening like talking about the work like

662
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: gen Z workforce having this opinion and then going right

663
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: to this is what high school and college students think

664
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: they will want once they start working. Is so well

665
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 1: clearly they're sure. They came up with the headline first,

666
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: and we're like, how can we find data to support this?

667
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter like what it is from, let's just

668
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 1: find it. Yeah, they've they've had this headline ever since

669
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 1: they wrote the article saying that gen Z does like

670
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: working prefer working from home, and the Better Business Bureau

671
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: of every city reached out to them and we're like,

672
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 1: what the fund do we pay you for? What the

673
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: fund do we pay you for? Fortune Magazine like, get

674
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 1: back out there and find me one that gen Z

675
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,800
Speaker 1: actually doesn't you need to put actually in the title?

676
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 1: How is that? Mr? Fortune? And just interesting when you

677
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: talk about like the things that they do like In

678
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: this national survey of high school scholars, it says remote

679
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 1: work quote. Remote work doesn't even crack the top three

680
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 1: things gen Z is looking for in a job, according

681
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: to the High school students survey, and said they prioritize

682
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 1: fair treatment of all employees, quality of life and flexibility,

683
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: and corporate social responsibility. I'm like, look, kids, you clearly

684
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: haven't had your soul fucking ground to dust and blown

685
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 1: away by some bosses fart into nothingness, because you will

686
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 1: realize what you're talking about quality of life and flexibility.

687
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 1: You may realize like, oh yeah, that flexibility means not

688
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: having to waste gas and ship to go to my

689
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: ice box of an office. And number two is essentially

690
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 1: remote work. It's like it's basically contradicting the entire and

691
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: I think it's fucked up, because yes, I get for

692
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 1: like what a person, a young person who is about

693
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: to enter you know, their working career whatever, or thinks

694
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: of what their life would be like, Yeah, you'd want

695
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 1: to think like, my job will be cool. I like

696
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: my co workers, we kick it after work, we go

697
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 1: off for drinks and ship like that. But that's obviously

698
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 1: they're they're more speaking from an experience that there yet

699
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: to have, and but they're using this for like this

700
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: very stupid like pro business propaganda ship and I'm like

701
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 1: just confusing to read it's I mean, it's so transparent

702
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: that like they just couldn't get they couldn't get the results,

703
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: they couldn't get the headline that they were looking for,

704
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 1: and so they had to just lie. I guess it

705
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: is kind of the only real honest way to put it.

706
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: And I get there are like again every every week,

707
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: all we contain multitudes. You can't treat anything like a monolith.

708
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 1: So I'm sure there are plenty of kids who are like, yeah,

709
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 1: funk that, like the last I've been doing remote ship

710
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: for a lot for a few years now, and that's

711
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,800
Speaker 1: the last thing I want to do. I totally get that.

712
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: But I think like you're saying, also saying Jonah like

713
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 1: to have this hasty, broad blanket generalization and be like, yeah,

714
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: all of them fucking hate it, and they also don't

715
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: and also never had a job yet. I do wish

716
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 1: this article had worked in more of these terminologies like

717
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: this is everything, or like turns out it isn't fire

718
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: to be working remotely right right, right, those previous surveys

719
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: that said gen Z actually wanted remote work, that's all cap.

720
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: They said, what market cap? You know, I work in

721
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 1: UM Like, I'm finishing a graduate degree in clinical mental

722
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: health counseling and so I work you know, in mental health.

723
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: And to me, it's like the remote work is like

724
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,919
Speaker 1: change everything and it's made it amazing, you know, having

725
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: access to therapists, people getting help with mental health, all

726
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: these companies starting up. So to me, there's just so

727
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 1: you know, doing a podcast like this from our houses.

728
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: To me, there's so many benefits. I find it hard

729
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 1: to think that things will ever really go back to

730
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: the way they were and people going commuting into these

731
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,359
Speaker 1: huge corporate offices and spending all day there when they

732
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 1: know they don't have to anymore. Right, Yeah, I think

733
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:18,280
Speaker 1: it's just like transitioning the like boss, you know, CEO

734
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: class of people to be like, you don't need your

735
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: big concrete dick symbols of buildings in a downtown to

736
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: like demonstrate the might of your company. In fact, you'll

737
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: probably save a lot of money by getting out of

738
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: your like thirty million dollar fucking forty year leaks or

739
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: whatever the funk you're locked into and then you can

740
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: just build more anatomically accurate giant concrete dick symbols that

741
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 1: represent your company because you don't have to like have

742
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: people working inside them. So yeah, they don't giant concrete

743
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:53,399
Speaker 1: dicks that are like big feet tall and concrete dick

744
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: obelisks coming to a downtown near you. Yeah, enough of

745
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 1: all the you know, bullshit about making them look like buildings.

746
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: Do do the damn thing? I mean, so do you

747
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: think overall, like I'm, i'm and i'm. This is just

748
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: my conclusion is that the reason this group of respondence

749
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: is responding is responding this way is because they're being

750
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: asked like a question that's too abstract, like based on

751
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: what they've experienced, right, Like, I'm not trying to because

752
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be old elder geriatric millennial here

753
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: being like, yeah, it's all bullshit. None of these kids

754
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: want that because I'm like, I get the yearning for

755
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: socializing and like, you know, the idea that being in

756
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: an office can like foster connections that give you a

757
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 1: network to be able to like, you know, progress your career,

758
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 1: advance it. But I don't know like that. My take

759
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: is they're asking kids whose souls have not been crushed yet,

760
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 1: and of course they're going to respond this way. I

761
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: think there's been a culture of like, yeah, I think

762
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 1: they miss the socialization. Also think there's been a culture

763
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: of them trying to push like offices that are fun.

764
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,359
Speaker 1: They have like a bean bag room or like ping

765
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 1: poonte or something. And I think that, yeah, that might

766
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: seem fun if you are looking maybe that's like an

767
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: extension of college or something. But I do think you're right.

768
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 1: I do think that, Yeah, I don't know. Maybe I

769
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,320
Speaker 1: don't know. It's I've never met anyone that said I

770
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,800
Speaker 1: can't wait to go back to my office. I don't know.

771
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure that those Yeah, I'm sure those

772
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: people might exist in some context, but I mean, I

773
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: don't know. It's I also feel this is based on

774
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 1: what like a LinkedIn survey, Like it's like, I don't know,

775
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: you know, we don't know what the sample sizes. We

776
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:36,800
Speaker 1: don't know I mean children actually, Okay, all right, I

777
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 1: guess we do know eleven thousand college aged or high

778
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: school students and college age kids. But yeah, because like

779
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: even with the perks, right, I remember early in my career,

780
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 1: like I remember seeing my friends who like went to

781
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: like fancy like their offices were like fucking nice, and

782
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, that ship looks dope because like, meanwhile,

783
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: like the place I go to for lunch is a

784
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 1: liquor store up the street versus like a building that

785
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: like had a cafeteria and shipped and you're like, oh,

786
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,800
Speaker 1: look at this capitalist, like fucking hell escape, that's so shiny.

787
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: But even when I worked in offices like that had

788
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: amazing perks, like you know, wild ass thirsty Thursdays and

789
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 1: like Barista cart like cooking up whatever fucking drinks you wanted,

790
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: that ship wore off like within the third month of

791
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: working there. I fucking hate my life and I just

792
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: want to be home all day. Please to get me

793
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 1: out of here. Yeah. I think it's like living I've

794
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: never lived in with places, but like an apartment complex

795
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: with all these amenities, and then it probably seems nice

796
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: when you're and then you realize you probably never use

797
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: almost all of them, right, right, Yeah, And you can

798
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 1: work from home and have a social life with people

799
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 1: you don't work with or the ones you want to

800
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: hang out with from work. You can go hang out

801
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: with them, but you have control over your life as

802
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: opposed to being forced to come into an office and

803
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: overseen by Like that does feel like a big part

804
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: of it is like having someone there who is overseeing you,

805
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,839
Speaker 1: and like there is what like, no matter what their

806
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: management style is, there is like some sense of like

807
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,320
Speaker 1: you were being judged and like this is going on

808
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: your permanent record no matter what, and like that high

809
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 1: school students and college aged students don't really have the

810
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: kind of profound, long term sense of like mental harm

811
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,920
Speaker 1: that that sort of environment does yet. So yeah, if

812
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 1: you look at like culturally, like a show like The Office, right,

813
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:39,320
Speaker 1: like the American version, um, like it's almost like this

814
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,359
Speaker 1: is just where you go. These are the people you're

815
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,240
Speaker 1: stuck with and you can make these connections or something,

816
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: and it's like, yeah, you don't have to do that anymore.

817
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 1: Like you can hang out with whoever you want, you

818
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: don't have to hang in miserable. Um so yeah, I

819
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 1: think there's sort of maybe this nostalgic like I don't know,

820
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: like maybe it's idealized a little bit in some ways,

821
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: because you know, I think that show is still really

822
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: popul with a lot of people. But um yeah, I

823
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 1: think this new paradigm is is totally. These CEOs are

824
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: not happy about it for sure. Yeah, where's that like

825
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 1: spinoff show where it's Stanley and Oscar from the office

826
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 1: texting their group chats and like this motherfucker Michael really

827
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: just says some about gay people right now and everybody

828
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 1: is laughing in here and I have to pretend to

829
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 1: go along with this ship He tried to kiss me,

830
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 1: fam Yeah it does. I didn't give people that idea

831
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 1: like it can be like a whimsical place. I think

832
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 1: we'd be remiss because we do have somebody on the

833
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: zoom call who does represent Generation C, and I just

834
00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: I would like to ask super producer Tricia very quickly,

835
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,360
Speaker 1: Tricia from your ten tho foot view. I don't know

836
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 1: if you're hearing this or you you know, you've got

837
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 1: something else happening right now. But Tricia, if you're there,

838
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 1: do you mind giving your perspective generationally? Am I far

839
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: off and my own old man yelling at the sky?

840
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 1: What was? What do you think is happening? Damn real

841
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 1: really lacking? Yeah bad? Tricia? Alright, yeah, no, this is

842
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 1: being noted. Thanks a lot, Tricia. It sounds like gen

843
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 1: Z really does like remote work a little too much. Actually,

844
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break and we'll be

845
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 1: right back. And we're back, and let's talk. Let's talk

846
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:37,960
Speaker 1: movie releases. I mean there's like the studios are up

847
00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: in arms. They're very concerned that nobody knows when a

848
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: movie is coming out. If the movie is coming out,

849
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,920
Speaker 1: that it is only in theaters. A lot of pulling

850
00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 1: is showing consumer confusion. I feel that, Yeah, like Top

851
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 1: Gun two is still only in theaters like months after

852
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: it was released. I think it's I don't know, I

853
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 1: because I liked I am always like I find it

854
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: interesting to like see how movies are doing at the

855
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 1: box office. I like end up like kind of aware

856
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,880
Speaker 1: of like, okay, so that did really well, so that's

857
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: probably not gonna come out on v O D. But

858
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 1: like if you're not paying attention to that, stuff is

859
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 1: just like yeah, no, Top Gun that we came out

860
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,839
Speaker 1: like months ago, Why is it still out? And why

861
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: can't I watch it on TV? Yeah? I in my mind,

862
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: I just thought everything came out on streaming. Like That's

863
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 1: what I've assumed actually for most of the pandemic, Like

864
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 1: when a movie comes out and I'm always like this

865
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 1: Ship is only in theaters like that, I'm always like

866
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 1: ready to sit down and be like, what the funk

867
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:48,760
Speaker 1: it came out today, and realizing it's only in theaters

868
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 1: for certain things. But I don't even it doesn't even

869
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 1: make sense, like what they're prioritizing by putting in theaters

870
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,360
Speaker 1: these days. Like I'm pissed that I didn't realize that

871
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: Are Are Are, which is still my favorite movie I've

872
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:05,320
Speaker 1: seen this year, the kind of Bollywood action musical just extravaganza,

873
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,800
Speaker 1: like that Ship's out in theaters. I didn't realize that

874
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: was out in theaters, Like I should have seen that

875
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,200
Speaker 1: in theaters before. I watched it in three chunks on

876
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 1: an iPad over the course of two days. Could you

877
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:20,279
Speaker 1: do a three hour I can't, ma'am. I I feel

878
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 1: like three hours. I really have trouble staying engaged in

879
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,320
Speaker 1: a in a movie theater for three hours. Maybe I

880
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 1: just need to go do that, Just go watch it,

881
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 1: because then, yeah, I can take pea breaks and it

882
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:33,320
Speaker 1: will be I won't be missing that much, you know, Jonah,

883
00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 1: what's your what's you been your like movie consumption pattern?

884
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,400
Speaker 1: Are you? Are you even like watching stuff? You've just

885
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 1: given up be like, I don't know, if it's good enough,

886
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,840
Speaker 1: I'll somewhere. Yeah. I was just thinking about this, and

887
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, thinking about that The Irishman, that

888
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 1: Scorse Asian movie that came out in two thousand nineteen.

889
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: It was like a really big deal that it was

890
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: coming out on like Netflix and in the theaters, and

891
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 1: now it's we're so used to it. Like I feel

892
00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: like now, like you're saying, we expect everything, so I

893
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,879
Speaker 1: would find it hard. Like I have like an indie

894
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 1: theater near me that and I'll just kind of go

895
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 1: check out whatever is there. But I can't remember the

896
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: last time I specifically was like I want to go

897
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,680
Speaker 1: see like a Blockbuster film at like a chain theater.

898
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:16,320
Speaker 1: I think it would take a lot. I don't know

899
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 1: for me mm hmm to leave the house. It takes

900
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:23,560
Speaker 1: a lot. Has to be really good. Yeah, I mean

901
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,800
Speaker 1: the last one I saw in the theater was Jurassic

902
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:29,879
Speaker 1: Park Dominion or whatever, the Lost World Dominion or Old

903
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,760
Speaker 1: Dominion University whatever it's called the university Old Dominion University,

904
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 1: um like, and that I also my first assumption was

905
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: it was going to be on streaming, and I had

906
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:41,320
Speaker 1: to quickly be like, oh shoot, I got into the

907
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: fucking like movie theater for this, and I think now

908
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:48,359
Speaker 1: it's already like on streaming, like even in like within

909
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 1: like wasn't there like some prescribed window that like like

910
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: the studios were trying to do where it's like, all right,

911
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: we'll give like a forty some day days was I

912
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:02,960
Speaker 1: think pretty standard, um heading into the pandemic and then um,

913
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,840
Speaker 1: and that even seemed short like before I know, Christopher

914
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:09,400
Speaker 1: Nolan has like ninety days written into his old contract,

915
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 1: and um, yeah, it's like now it's basically you know,

916
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 1: the the um Black Widow movie came out like on

917
00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: streaming and like had a massive theatrical release at the

918
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,799
Speaker 1: like on the same day, and I think people think

919
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 1: it didn't do well because of that, But yeah, I

920
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,319
Speaker 1: mean I don't know. People people are going, people are back,

921
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 1: they are seeing movies in theaters. So like a big

922
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 1: reason this is on people's minds is that this movie

923
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 1: The Gray Man, starring Ryan Gosling as someone who's like

924
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 1: easy to forget when you see them, Like the the

925
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 1: idea of The Gray Man is like, you know, a

926
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:55,880
Speaker 1: CIA agent who's like you know, just blends into the

927
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 1: background to the point that like they can get away

928
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 1: with doing stuff and like they're like this sort of

929
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: like yeah exactly, it's like forgettable figure and it's like, yeah,

930
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 1: so we'll get the handsomest human being like on the

931
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:16,440
Speaker 1: planet to yeah, forgetable dude. But anyways, Uh, it's like

932
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 1: a big It cost I think two million dollars, like

933
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 1: there was the budget for it, and it's coming out

934
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: just on Netflix like there um just putting it on

935
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 1: Netflix and like doing a theatrical like a limited theatrical

936
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:34,239
Speaker 1: release like it's an indie movie. Um, but so that's

937
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,240
Speaker 1: coming out this weekend and a lot of people seeing

938
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 1: the ads for that are like wait what that? But

939
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 1: that's you're giving me ads like it's a blockbuster. It

940
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 1: has a cast like it's a blockbuster, and it's not

941
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,560
Speaker 1: in theaters. It's just all very strange. What do you

942
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,759
Speaker 1: My broader question to you both, is is it like

943
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: they the pandemic has kind of like open Pandora's box

944
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 1: for like the sort of obscuring or blending together of

945
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 1: like film and streaming that like the prestige, the perceived

946
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 1: prestige is getting diluted a little bit because now our

947
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 1: idea of like what a big movie is. We also

948
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 1: kind of expect to be on our TV at home,

949
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,359
Speaker 1: and it's almost like, yeah, whatever want to give about theater,

950
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 1: like can I stream it right now? And is that

951
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:24,799
Speaker 1: kind of like is that beginning to change how we're

952
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:29,759
Speaker 1: even like perceiving what a film is or not? You know, yeah,

953
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 1: I think so. I think it's very similar actually to

954
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:35,160
Speaker 1: like the remote work idea, where people wouldn't be like, oh,

955
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 1: this is never possible, and then you see it's possible

956
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,640
Speaker 1: and people don't want to go back. Like I bet you.

957
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: Forbes wrote an article like gen Z doesn't like streaming

958
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 1: movies at home. They going spending fifty to go to

959
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: the theater every time. Yeah, every time a movie comes

960
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 1: out that doesn't do well at theaters, they write article

961
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: there turns out gen Z is rejecting the yeah, or

962
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: or I guess every time the movie comes up does

963
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 1: do well? Top Gune. I'm sure they were, like there

964
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 1: were pieces that were like, turns out gen Z is

965
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 1: ready to go back to theaters, right. Is gen Z

966
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:14,279
Speaker 1: responsible for the death of the cinema? You know, like

967
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:17,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, or or is everybody like young broker

968
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,560
Speaker 1: ship don't put that question too, like instead of being

969
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:25,240
Speaker 1: like the with the millennials, it's like they like avocados

970
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: more than house rather than being like they've been fucked

971
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 1: multiple times by recessions. And then that with gen Z,

972
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 1: it's like, I don't know these kids like used clothes,

973
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 1: how they dress. It's like the we're thrifting. I don't know,

974
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,520
Speaker 1: what do you want to say? You're like a little

975
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 1: a little bit of difference there, but yeah, I feel

976
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 1: like there's part of the confusion is like I don't

977
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: know if it's a good or bad thing for like

978
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 1: the movie industry, because like you're spending two d million

979
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 1: dollars and people are like, I don't know, is that

980
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: like a TV show? You know? Like and we also

981
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: have so many prestige TV shows with like with like

982
00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 1: talent that we used to silo in our minds is

983
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,520
Speaker 1: being like film talent or TV talent that I think

984
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,759
Speaker 1: it's all coming together now to just become like the

985
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,799
Speaker 1: audio visual industry. Um, I don't know if if that's

986
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 1: like if that's like a more of a meta problem

987
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 1: that they have to consider. It is like people aren't

988
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 1: I don't know how many people are taking in stuff.

989
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 1: Is like being like it has to be in theaters,

990
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 1: like maybe Avatar too, like has a shout for something

991
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, like the The gray Man thing, like

992
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:32,680
Speaker 1: I I feel like I don't have like strong opinions

993
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 1: or like no, I guess nobody has figured it out.

994
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,480
Speaker 1: But like when I see something that feels wrong, I

995
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 1: know it, and like The gray Man not being in

996
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: theaters doesn't make sense to me, Like they should have

997
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,200
Speaker 1: released it in theaters, and like I think the only

998
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:50,160
Speaker 1: reason they didn't is because like Netflix paid for it,

999
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,320
Speaker 1: and so Netflix is like, no, we we want it

1000
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:55,360
Speaker 1: to be like the big Netflix thing, but like that

1001
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,240
Speaker 1: they should have released it, Like it's the type of movie,

1002
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:06,280
Speaker 1: like a big budget like action movie, an amazing cast

1003
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,600
Speaker 1: like that, that's the sort of thing that's supposed to

1004
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,000
Speaker 1: come out in theaters and then and then you can

1005
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 1: put it on that But guess what, gen Z doesn't

1006
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 1: funk with cinema anymore, so now it has to be

1007
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:19,200
Speaker 1: on streaming. It even seems like an odd business decision

1008
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 1: for Netflix, who was like being like, we're viable as

1009
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 1: a business, Like you're not gonna turn the like box

1010
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 1: office revenue speak it on and just be like for

1011
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,960
Speaker 1: the people maybe we'll draw in more people with this film, right,

1012
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 1: Like their whole thing is like that they know a

1013
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 1: lot about what people want to watch, Like that's supposed

1014
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 1: to be like the thing that makes them different. Like

1015
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:45,279
Speaker 1: you could definitely apply that to theatrical movies as well.

1016
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, no, I don't know. Put your prayers up.

1017
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,000
Speaker 1: Put your prayers up for them, prayers up for the

1018
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 1: movie industree, prayers up for the mouse House? And what

1019
00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:00,239
Speaker 1: are what are the shitty like trade nicknames for all

1020
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:03,640
Speaker 1: the other ones? I forgot? It's the house that Mouse built,

1021
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 1: right and uh, mouse House. I don't know if there's

1022
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:11,880
Speaker 1: other one. I don't know, dude, I've avoided the industry

1023
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,799
Speaker 1: trade magazines for a while now, and that's learning about

1024
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 1: Armie Hammer selling time shares in the Cayman Islands. What

1025
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:24,000

1039
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:14,239
Speaker 1: I've always wondered that it is. I think one of

1040
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:18,439
Speaker 1: like on my top five SNL characters of all time.

1041
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:24,320
Speaker 1: It's so good and like deeply just like perfect and human.

1042
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 1: It's like so so wonderful. So that yeah, it's like

1043
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,680
Speaker 1: some of the best SNL characters always based off someone's sibling,

1044
00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 1: like Garth is like Dana Carvey's brother. Is it? I

1045
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:41,040
Speaker 1: didn't know that either? Amazing. Is there a tweet or

1050
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,560
Speaker 1: is on social media. I feel like just one of

1051
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,120
Speaker 1: the funniest people. A lot of it's music oriented, but

1052
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:04,640

1069
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,160

1077
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:32,240
Speaker 1: a tweet from Joe at Gulture tweeted reminder not to

1078
00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:35,200
Speaker 1: put sunglasses on your dog for a fun picture in

1079
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:38,160
Speaker 1: the sun. This is actually very bad for the dog

1080
00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 1: as it gives them a false sense of confidence that

1081
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 1: makes them look really cool, which can be dangerous when

1082
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:45,400
Speaker 1: you take them off again and they have to go

1083
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 1: back to normal dog. And I also like to cute nature.
