3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,680

Speaker 1: The truck, so wonderful to have you. And as always

12
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,840
Speaker 1: when you do trends, you you're standing. I mean people

13
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: can't see this, but you are standing on TikTok Corner

14
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: right now.

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: I have built a platform and it says TikTok.

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: Corner and I'm got sunglasses and you're just like kind

17
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: of asking people as they come by, who's this guy?

18
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: This guy, What's what's the deal? What's going on over here?

19
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: And one of the things that is bubbling on TikTok

20
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: Corner is the nine month cruise from Royal Caribbean Cruise Line.

21
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 2: Yes, it is so insane that a people embark on

22
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 2: this and are not fearful. I know, I know there

23
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 2: are people on this in our our TDZ community that

24
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: are fans of cruising. It's not me. It'll never be me,

25
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 2: you know. I remember Miles very distinctly being like I

26
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 2: could fuck with a cruise, though, oh yeah, like I

27
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 2: will never. You will not catch me on a cruise,

28
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So imagine a nine month cruise,

29
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 2: you know, like like we haven't dealt with the fact

30
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: that like cruises can be incubators, you know, like COVID

31
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: nineteen running rampant on cruises, cruises sinking, you know, the

32
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: shit flying on these cruises. You know, there have been

33
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 2: multiple cruising incidents in the past few years, and people

34
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: want to embark on a nine month cruise.

35
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: Nine months is enough time to just state a whole

36
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: ass baby. So literally you could get pregnant on the

37
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: first day of the cruise and to give birth when

38
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: you get to court. Yeah, that's wild. Uh, it's what

39
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: what it just like goes everywhere. It's like the ulta

40
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: is the final word in luxury?

41
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 2: Is that what we're Yes, it's giving Titanic, you know,

42
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: it's like this grand tour of the world. Basically, you're

43
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: gonna hit all seven I like almost said the wrong

44
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 2: amount of continents, Like I didn't have a college degree.

45
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: I actually can't currently produce the correct number of continents.

46
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: To be honest with, you hit all the continents. You're

47
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 2: supposed to hit all the continents. You don't get off

48
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 2: at Antarctica, but you're supposed to like wave hello at Antarctica.

49
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 2: But you're supposed to get off at all the continents

50
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: and spend like ample time in each of these places.

51
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 2: I'm assuming like a month or two because it's nine months,

52
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: so you're gonna spend like six weeks maybe per continent.

53
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 2: I don't remember all the details, but they like fly

54
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: you to Miami and they have this whole like welcome

55
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 2: party in Miami and you get to do like these

56
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 2: really fun restaurant things that have a gala. They make

57
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: it a whole event, like you're part of this club

58
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: to be on this cruise for nine months, which I

59
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 2: guess I get it. You're gonna be with the same

60
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 2: people like a small boat. I mean it's a big boat,

61
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 2: but like a small community.

62
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 1: You're gonna get nine months. Yeah, you're gonna get.

63
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 2: A little village you're you're shipping around for nine months.

64
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: With here's my pitch. Yeah, make it more expensive and

65
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: then make this.

66
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: A sixty k make it.

67
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: Away for like the ultra wealthy and also the children

68
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: of the ultra wealthy to just take themselves out of

69
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: circulation for nine months, yes, and allow the world to

70
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: get better. Maybe maybe like we create an Internet bubble

71
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: on the cruise so they think that they know what's

72
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: going on and that they're interacting with the world. Yeah,

73
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: but it's actually like they're completely cut off from the world,

74
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: like it when they're true show. Yeah, more Truman show show.

75
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: They don't realize that nobody can actually hear or see

76
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: what they're posting or like their calls. We just like,

77
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, do some AI stuff so that they're like,

78
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 1: I'm going to put this on TikTok and we're just like, yay,

79
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: we like your TikTok content. Rich person's son.

80
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 2: You don't realize the same on TikTok.

81
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're just getting all and then we just put

82
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: all the wealthy out to see for nine months. And

83
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: then when they come back, we have launched the revolution

84
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh wow, but it's too late for you.

85
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 2: This should have been in our twenty twenty four predictions.

86
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,359
Speaker 1: That's I mean, we just recorded our twenty twenty four predictions. Uh,

87
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm not predicting it. I am manifesting it right now.

88
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: That's going to yeah, yeah stage.

89
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 2: The Royal Caribbean becomes the elite cruise line for all

90
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 2: the rich and we ship them off for nine months

91
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 2: yea on the craziest cruise.

92
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: Probably you need to create a new name for the

93
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,039
Speaker 1: cruise line. That is like makes them think that it's

94
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: like even more yeah, super excluded, like it's something only

95
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: for them. Anyways, some of the things that we're trending Idahoans,

96
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: we got to come up with a new name for

97
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: you guys. First of all, Idahoans lined up for eight

98
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: hours of their first crack at in and out Burger

99
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: is crazy.

100
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 2: That is I I'm sorry. It's a fast food burger.

101
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: At the end of the days, it's a fast food burger.

102
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: It costs under ten dollars.

103
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: It misunderstands. This is what happens with in and out

104
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 1: all the time. The point of in and out is

105
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: it is convenient and cheap. Like that's what is going

106
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: in and out? Going in, You're going out and you're

107
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: not paying that much. If you're going in expecting it

108
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: to be the best thing you've ever had, it's not

109
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: gonna work out for you. The thing that is good

110
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: about it is that it's the best thing you've ever

111
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: had at that price.

112
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 2: Ag.

113
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, it's for like two Like it's pretty cheap,

114
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: and that's what's good. So like treating it like it's

115
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: a fucking you know, Taylor Swift concert, you know, is

116
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: going to leave you disappointed, I would imagine.

117
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 2: But maybe this it's like what have we come to?

118
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 2: And maybe I also have the privilege of growing up

119
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 2: I mean privilege and also like there's something wrong with

120
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 2: Texas of a fast food plethrap right, Like I grew

121
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 2: up probably the heart of fast food in my square mile.

122
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 2: I can get to Popeye's, what a Burger, McDonald's, sonic Uh,

123
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: in and Out, and Chick fil A within five minutes

124
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 2: of my house.

125
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: I didn't even realize that I have it in and

126
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 1: out in Texas.

127
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they have. They have it in and out

128
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 2: in Texas.

129
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 1: Okay, So I mean not okay, I.

130
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 2: Guess I should not say in and out. For Houston,

131
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,679
Speaker 2: the in and out's a little far from me in Houston,

132
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 2: but it's in Austin. It was in Waco, my college town. Yeah,

133
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: like I had access and the in and out when

134
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 2: it opened in Waco was not seven eight hours, but

135
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 2: it was like a big deal, like I remember, But

136
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 2: that's nothing. There's also on the same strip as the

137
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: in and out, a Whaterburger subway, Papa John's, Jimmy Johns, Jersey, Mike.

138
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: You are flexing on people right now, you know, You're like, it's.

139
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 2: The fast food, it's plethora. I can't imagine waiting more

140
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 2: than thirty minutes for anything in fast food time.

141
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: That's what you can't do. Yeah, that is nine months

142
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: in fast food time. Waiting eight hours is the equivalent

143
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: of nine months in fast food time. Yeah, you could

144
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: have just like to drive it home. You could have

145
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: in the time that you were waiting in an idling car,

146
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: you could have flown to California. I gotten in and

147
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: out and flowing.

148
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: Yes, you literally could have. Like how long is the

149
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: flight from Idaho to California.

150
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: It's not that not that far. That's one.

151
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 2: It's if you're going to northern California, right, it should

152
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 2: be like right there, a hop skip and a.

153
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: Hop, skip and one jump. So anyways, I don't know,

154
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: but maybe, well we'll see how people feel. Maybe like

155
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: this is the sort of thing that people go nuts for,

156
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: is like, did you see how fucking long the lines are?

157
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: It's gotta be a success.

158
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 2: I want to hear from Idahoan did you wait in

159
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: the line? Did you go? And how was it? Because

160
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: I just want to know if you were disappointed at

161
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: the end of those eight hours.

162
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: And I actually don't want to hear from you. I

163
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: just you know, try harder. I'm tired now. Yeah, maybe

164
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: maybe it was worth it, maybe like something about waiting

165
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: eight hours for a meal. God, I would be so

166
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: hungry by the time that I got to the front

167
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: that I would be like ready to harm someone.

168
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 2: Exactly as a angry person. I don't think I could

169
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 2: have done it.

170
00:08:55,240 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: To bring a snack to a fast food. All right,

171
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back,

172
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: and we're back and Sports Illustrated. We talked about, I

173
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 1: think a few weeks back they got busted by futurism

174
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: dot com, which is a website that I'm a I'm

175
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: a fan of now because they are paying attention. They

176
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: seem to be written by real humans, and they noticed

177
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 1: that Sports Illustrated, famed legendary uh you know journalistic institution,

178
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: was not written by humans anymore. They had bylines from

179
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: people who had no history writing any sort of journalism.

180
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: So they asked Sports Illustrated parent company, the Arena Group,

181
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: for comments, and all the generated authors disappeared from the

182
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: website and all their contented But it's just again interesting

183
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: to look at the inoffensive, just pablem that they're producing,

184
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: that they're using AI technology. This is the bio of

185
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: Drew or Tees, who one of the writers from Sports

186
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: Illustrated that didn't exist. Drew has spent much of his

187
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: life outdoors and is excited to guide you through his

188
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: never ending list of the best products to keep you

189
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: from falling to the perils of nature. Nowadays, there is

190
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: rarely a weekend that goes by where Drew isn't out camping, hiking,

191
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: or just back on his parents farm. Just yeah, it's

192
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: just like if a marketing company like people spend money

193
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: on outdoor shit. So like if a marketing company could

194
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: invent a person, this is what they would do it.

195
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 2: Like when they do the the audience brand deep I

196
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: guess as someone who used to work in marketing. They

197
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,439
Speaker 2: used to have like little like this is who we're

198
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 2: talking to. His name is Jim.

199
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: Jim Marketers love to do that where they're like, yeah, yes,

200
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: he's one and a half kid, and the half one

201
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: is like in a lot of pain and just screaming

202
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: kill me.

203
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 2: He spends this much on nutri green bars a week.

204
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I mean they just like did a very

205
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: basic look and it was like that, and also the

206
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: AI like posts the stuff that they were writing. So

207
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: this is used across the company's entire content library. They

208
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: own a bunch of websites and like there's one I

209
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: just want to read this like summary from the article

210
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: of this other like what one of their financial websites. Uh.

211
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 1: It starts with the sweeping libertarian claim that your financial

212
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: status translates to your value in society. But then the

213
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 1: article is just like this, like vague people with strong

214
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: financial status are revered and given special advantages everywhere around

215
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 1: the world. Improve your financial status using these five tips.

216
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: So it's just like complete bullshit, says nothing means nothing.

217
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: And then the list, which includes headers such as educate yourself,

218
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: set and achieve goals use your time wisely. Shut up.

219
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: But each entry, each one of those is numbered number one,

220
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 1: So number one educate yourself. Number one set and achieve goals,

221
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: and of course number one use your time wisely. So

222
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: I don't know. So anyways, this was revealed a couple

223
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: weeks ago. The article was published a couple of weeks ago,

224
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: and since Nsports Illustrators had to fire a bunch of people,

225
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: and recently, I think a couple of days ago, they

226
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: fired their CEO and replaced them with the interim CEO,

227
00:12:55,120 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: who is the founder and CEO of Innovations Ventures, known

228
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: for creating the five hour Energy drink. So like, even

229
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: the moves of like who they hired feel like they

230
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: were written by fucking AI. Yeah, well, of course, and

231
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: we like energy and therefore we were hiring the founder

232
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: of five Hour Energy to run Sports Illustrated.

233
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 2: You know, famously someone who definitely works in copy. I

234
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 2: can run an editorial venture.

235
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. So anyways, keep it an eye on that.

236
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: But it really, like the thing that's surprising and interesting

237
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: to me about this is that it feels like everybody

238
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: is doing this when you go and read, like I

239
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: was talking about how like one of the ap year

240
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: and review articles. When you like read the headers or

241
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: like the subheads of like some of the sections, it

242
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: just reads like it is written by AI. I think

243
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: that the use of AI is like way more widespread.

244
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: So it's interesting to me that they got fired, like

245
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: they had to like clean house over this, because it

246
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: feels like this is happening everywhere, Like it's all just

247
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: like bland inoffensive bullshit, and we're like, I don't know,

248
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: we'll be keeping an eye on it, but like it's

249
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: so much of like Wall Street value, like a lot

250
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: of the stock market growth is like based on the

251
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: promise of AI, and when people get caught using AI,

252
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: they get fired. I'm like there's a contradiction there that

253
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: they want.

254
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: To make more money be using AI, but then they

255
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 2: realize and they use shitty AI is and also that

256
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 2: that takes away maybe so their job at the end

257
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 2: of the day, and they're like, oh, okay, well this

258
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 2: is getting a little too close. I'm putting my feet

259
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: to the fire. Yeah, I don't lose my job.

260
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then so something that was trending earlier today

261
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: is that the there's a new Beverly Hills cop movie

262
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: coming Beverly Hills cop AXILF colon AXILF. It is coming

263
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: in I think, or like coming this summer, and it's

264
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: only coming out on Netflix.

265
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 2: Love.

266
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: It's so ouch that like, oh, man, like that would

267
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: be I would think that would be a big event film.

268
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: But I mean, I guess it's just that I'm old

269
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: and who gives a shit? But like that seems to

270
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: be the trend in movies like coming in twenty twenty four.

271
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: So I was just looking back through these are all

272
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: like it's movies that you had assumed most of the

273
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: people involved are retired, like Gladiator two Yeah, is coming

274
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: like which sounds bad on its surface, but it's still

275
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: directed by Ridley Scott, who like is incapable. He makes

276
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: bad movies very frequently now, but they're always entertaining. Like

277
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: he is screaming to us, are you not entertained? Uh?

278
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: And I'm screaming back, you're bad, but like, yes, I'm entertained. Man,

279
00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: you got me. But this one's got fucking Denzel Washington. Yeah.

280
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: That that's Has Denzel ever been in a sequel? I

281
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: guess the Equalizer films, Yeah, Blake, he's not a sequel guy. Really?

282
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 1: Another one twisters. Uh, so they're doing the Alien Aliens thing.

283
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: No news whether they did the thing where they that

284
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: James Cameron did for pitching the Alien sequel where he

285
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: just wrote alien on a whiteboard and then wrote an

286
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,479
Speaker 1: S after and then turned the S into a dollar sign. Uh,

287
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: but I hope they did. Uh. Beetlejuice too, sure.

288
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: You know, equal to like the O G beetlejuice?

289
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: Is there another No, that's a beetle just too. I'm tired.

290
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: Mufassa coland the Lion King. Yeah, they're gonna let Godfather

291
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: to this ship, which like that's what they like, the

292
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: origin story of Mufasa and then also the story of

293
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: like Simba trying to be a parent to his offspring.

294
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: So it's it's just and then there's of course, like

295
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: more Ghostbusters with the original cast Bad Boys four. So

296
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 1: I don't like, I feel like everyone was like, you know, uh, okay,

297
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: well what we the lesson we learned twenty twenty three

298
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: is people like original ip or like they like originally

299
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: you know, they're like Barbie, they like Super Mario Brothers.

300
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: Won you know what? And instead of kind of learning

301
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 1: that lesson, they're just like, no, we're gonna go back

302
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: to doing sequels to even older movies that you did.

303
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:52,360
Speaker 2: Do you think what is I obviously don't know how

304
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 2: movies are run so famously, you know, I don't work

305
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 2: in movies, but I'm an expert, So go ahead and

306
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 2: ask it cheaper to be produced. Seeing these movies with

307
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 2: older ip as, they were having a downturn write in

308
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: theory in twenty twenty three because of the strikes. So

309
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 2: they're like, oh shit, we didn't make as much money

310
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 2: as we normally would in like box office and like whatever,

311
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 2: because like all the actors and writers thought they deserved

312
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 2: fair wages, which they did, and so now they're like,

313
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 2: all right, well, we had a downturn year in twenty

314
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 2: twenty three, we got to play safe. In twenty twenty four.

315
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 2: We know these types of things will bring us money

316
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: because like who doesn't love a sel, you know, even

317
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 2: though we know, as like people who consume media, we

318
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 2: don't want a sequel, but they're so focused on like

319
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: it has to be a sequel. Yeah, that's guaranteed dollars

320
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: versus like.

321
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: New ventures could be for sure, And I think it

322
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 1: probably also fewer of the people who would say no

323
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: are still around too, so now you know. But I'm

324
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: sure like most of these were in the works before

325
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 1: the strike would be My guess.

326
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 2: Is this Joker going to be the new Joker with

327
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 2: the guy from Saltburn?

328
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 1: Know? This is going to be Joker with Joaquin Phoenix,

329
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 1: Oscar Winning Joker plus Lady Gaga.

330
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 2: A lady, Oh, this is Lady Go Joker.

331
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: Lady Gaga's Joker. It's a music hall folly. Dude, do
