We're gonna talk about this Southwest Airlines meltdown 214 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: story that happened over the three weeks that we were out. 215 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: But there's been some investigative journalism that revealed that this 216 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: was like widely foreseen and everybody was hitting up. So 217 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: Pete Budha Judge as the Secretary of Transportation, like he 218 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: directly oversees the ship. He is the one person who's 219 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: in charge of regulating the airlines, and people have been 220 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: hitting him up because the basically the same ship happened 221 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: about a year ago to Southwest. People been hitting him 222 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: up to like regulate, to do something about that, and 223 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: he just ignored, ignored, ignored. So we're gonna talk about that, 224 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: and also how the mainstream media like ignored that story, 225 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: ignored the investigative journalism and just kind of the state 226 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: of the you know, mainstream left center left media that 227 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: is just like kind of becoming I don't know, they're 228 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 1: playing right into Fox's hands. So we'll talk about that. 229 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 1: Then we'll talk about Fox being just a fucking mess. 230 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: We might talk about some overall like there's some suing 231 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: of big corporations happening, so some good news maybe with 232 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: regulating the free market ak just rich people getting to 233 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: do whatever the funk they want. And then we'll talk 234 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: about the trend on Netflix where they keep canceling their 235 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: top shows, Like a show will be number two in 236 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: their top ten list and then they'll like cancel it 237 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: a week later. So we'll talk about why that's happening 238 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: plenty Moore, But first if he we do like to 239 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: ask our guests, what is something from your search history?

But it also is funny because you're now 255 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: playing a game where everyone knows how everything happens. They 256 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: know when you're doing the wrong thing and the right thing, 257 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: but they're very much real chill about it, being like 258 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: do what you think it's right, do what you think. 259 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: But and sometimes they'll be like, oh, okay, you chose that, 260 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: but it's really that yeah, exactly. It's it's like a 261 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: fun way to play a game that I've never are 262 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: really considered because either either I'm playing a game as 263 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: it has been out, or I'm playing like Call of 264 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: Duty or Apex, which you can just kind of play 265 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: any anyway. So I've been having a good time for it. 266 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: Minor plug if you if that sounds tied to you. 267 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: Definitely been doing it on Twitch and if you don't 268 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: want to, uh wait around to while I'm doing and 269 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: I do plan on like making it a neat video 270 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: for you to just kind of go through and check 271 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: out in the past.

Because they're both 278 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: by Betheta. They're both kind of open world exploration games 279 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: that lets you kind of play it however you want. 280 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: The only difference is one is fantasy, one is post apocalyptic. 281 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: But I think what happened was Three just bled into 282 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: New Vegas for me, So I just didn't even look 283 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: at Skyrim.

I think I 330 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: might have had this take before on the pod because 331 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: it is a take that just needs to I just 332 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: want to have to stop saying it. But if everybody 333 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: likes something, and you don't have to dislike it because 334 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't make you cooler. Like I said, I didn't 335 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: listen to M F. Doom for so long because everyone 336 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: would like him, and I was trying to be different. 337 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: And that's one of the biggest regrets of my life 338 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: because I remember I got the Food Special Edition and 339 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: it had a show at the Knitting Factory in l 340 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: A back when that was still a thing, and I 341 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: was like, real hype. I was like, Oh, I gotta 342 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: go to this, and then I realized it was years 343 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: old because I got it, you know, I got it 344 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: so late, and I've never been able to see him 345 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: live and I never will. All because why I was 346 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: trying to be, you know, different. I was trying to 347 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: go against the grain. And if you know, if you 348 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: genuinely do not like it, then that's fine too, but 349 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: also don't think that. I also think that, you know, 350 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: you don't need to shoot on people who do like 351 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: it and pretend like you know, you are the the 352 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,239 Speaker 1: taste of movie. Because if you're saying everything everywhere, all 353 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: at once wasn't your favorite, but your top movie is 354 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: a white lead, white written, white created movie, then you're 355 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: whacked to me because I'm sorry, like I gotta say, look, 356 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: white people that got some hits. You know, you know, 357 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: we know, we know white people got some hits, But 358 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: I don't think they got there. I don't think they 359 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: got the crown last year. Simply put, don't think they 360 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: got the crown. I think that comes from like the 361 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: just not wanting to be one of it, like they're 362 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: There's something that I think at first, if you don't 363 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: like spend time with it, the idea that there are 364 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: a billion other people on the planet and you're just 365 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: one of them can be upset. And again, I think 366 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 1: that comes from that place like you wanting to deny 367 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: or at least like get some momentary feeling that like 368 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: you're different. But like if you if you spend time 369 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: with the fact that you're one of eight billion people 370 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 1: and just like kind of accept that, there there's like 371 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: a joy in that of like you you're part of 372 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: a communal human experience and like you're all enjoying the 373 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 1: same thing at the same time. But yeah, I used 374 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: to have that. I used to be like, I don't 375 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: like them anymore because they everybody else likes them. So 376 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: I like the white stripes. Well I saw them in 377 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: a bar when there's only like twenty people there, So 378 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: now I think they're whack because everybody likes them only 379 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: focused Dola white Label final Stock. You're right down is 380 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: that it's that thing, and I think it's say, you know, 381 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: even more so, which I'm sure we'll dip into this 382 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: thought process more because I've been thinking about a lot lately, 383 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: just another one of those you know, American individualism type 384 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: things where it's like I have to be the guy. 385 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: I like, why would I be the same as anyone? 386 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: I must be the different person, and it's like the okay, cool. 387 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: It's kind of like when you see somebody be like 388 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: this person stole my tweet, and like, there are a 389 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: lot of tweet thieves. I've seen it happen to me. 390 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: I've seen it to happen to a lot of But 391 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: sometimes I'm like, oh no, that's just a basic idea, 392 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: especially when it's like a retweeted, you know, response to 393 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 1: something where it's like, well, that's bound to happen. Y'all 394 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 1: are working off of the same prompt, y'all are you 395 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: know y'all are working off the same prompt. We all 396 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: kind of live in the same reality. There's gonna be 397 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 1: some overlap and the I learned that very quickly when 398 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: I worked on At Midnight, because when we were writing 399 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: for that show, all the writers were writing into a 400 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: doc so we weren't like, we didn't know what jokes 401 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: everyone was doing. And one of the big things we 402 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 1: had to do was go over and get rid of duplicates, 403 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: because if you're working from the same prompt, you're gonna 404 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: land on the same punchline like very often. So I think, 405 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: I think this idea that like, and if I came 406 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: up with an idea, it's original, and no one could 407 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 1: ever have this same idea. It's just false. And sometimes 408 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: if somebody you know, stole the thing, if it is 409 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: not very clear and personal to you, maybe they I think, 410 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: give people the benefit of the doubt. Let's not make 411 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,719 Speaker 1: it Twitter more of a battle ground than it already. 412 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: And also like, just let your fucking eagle go, you 413 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: know what I mean, that's the only reason people, you're 414 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: gonna get so turned up being like, well, that's not me, 415 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 1: because it wouldn't be me over here saying that objectively, 416 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: the best film of the year was this film, like 417 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: it's got to be different because that's my identity or whatever. 418 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: Let that ship cool, because that's purely how it operated, 419 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 1: like as a team. Like in my twenties was like, 420 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 1: my ship is different. I will never be like and 421 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: it was really just because I was angry at a 422 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: bunch of ship rather than like kind of I guess 423 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 1: more energetically like acknowledging, like yeah, man, all good, Like 424 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: you could like what you like. I like what I like. 425 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: That doesn't make me cooler. That doesn't make you cooler, 426 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: because I think the other thing too is you get 427 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: caught up in people's opinions. Are like, oh the cool 428 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: people think this or that, and now I want to 429 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: be like that. Just do you much easier, much less stressed, 430 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah, all right, let's take 431 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: a quick break, we'll come back, we'll hear what you're underrated, 432 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: and we're back and if he as you know, we 433 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: like to ask our guests not just what's overratable, what's underrated? 434 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: What's something you think is underrated. Boy, boy, boy, let 435 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: me let me tell you we're staying. This is gonna 436 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: be a very cinephile over under for me because I 437 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: gotta put on Nanny. It's called Nanny Nothing Nanny. It 438 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: came out last year. I saw that Sun Dance. It 439 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: was directed by Nick yahto JUICEU, and it's about an 440 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: African woman who hopes her new job as a nanny 441 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: will help bring her young son to the United States. 442 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: And it's this like very like I was just I'm 443 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: gonna say, it's like a thriller slash whorese. It's very 444 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: slow paced, taps into African mythology once it really gets going, 445 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of beautiful visuals. Shout out to 446 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: Rena Yang who did the cinematography. And I think it 447 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: kind of flew under the radar. To me, it was 448 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: the best film that came out of Sundance that year. 449 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: And then you know it was Amazon who bought it, 450 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: so it was on Prime Video, which you know they 451 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,719 Speaker 1: if it ain't Jack Reacher, you ain't gonna hear about uh. 452 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: You know, good just just disappears, goes there to not exist. 453 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 1: It's it's it's like they put budget in like promoting 454 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: like three shows, like we knew about Ring of Power, 455 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: we knew about the Wheel of Time, and we know 456 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: about Jack Reacher. But are so many movies that go 457 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: there that fly into the radar. So if you have 458 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: Prime video, which I'm sure you probably do because we 459 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: all have Prime even though we don't funk with bezos 460 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: like that. We like getting our ship in two days 461 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: that you just can't beat it. And like I said, bezos, 462 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: if you want to wint us over, use that money 463 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: and solve world hunger, stop using the lip service. I 464 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: love that he did read the room though he was like, 465 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: I'm getting I'm getting rid of my million. I'm don't, 466 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: don't I'm giving it away. What if I get? What 467 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: if I gave these people three million dollars right now? 468 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: They're like, more out of your pocket? What are you 469 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: talking about? It was just funny to see a billionaire 470 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: one of them finally read the room and was like, yeah, 471 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it, and I'm telling you I'm gonna 472 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: give you. I promise you if you use that money 473 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: to solve world hunger or any any global crisis, I 474 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: swear to God you will be able to put as 475 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: much dumb ship in space you can build any mecca. 476 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: I promise you we won't say anything. I've been saying 477 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: this every time I've been on the pod. You don't 478 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: even got a credit me. Just solve one global crisis 479 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: and I problem. People ain't gonna be pressed about you 480 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 1: doing whatever the funk you want with the rest of 481 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: your billions. It's easy. I'm telling you, I got I 482 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: got the SECRETI yeah, yeah, yeah, just one. If you 483 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: did one global crisis, I promise you, no one's even 484 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: gonna because because the bar is in Hell, you would 485 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: be basically Jesus and you could. But yeah, Nanny, check 486 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: that out. It's on Prime video. It's it's I really 487 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: like it. I think people it's it's a very weird, 488 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: kind of heavy, slow moving thing that I think, uh 489 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,959 Speaker 1: usually is reserved for a lot of white stories. And 490 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: I think because people are expecting something more, and they're 491 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 1: expecting it to say something more, because you know, I 492 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: think we're in this we're still in this black renaissance 493 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: of cinema, but I think we're trying to break out 494 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: of that that that get out effect where I think 495 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 1: people really liked that it was this great black story 496 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: that kind of spoke to racism in a very specific, 497 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: very understandable way. And so whenever you have these kind 498 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: of prestige black movies, you have viewers waiting for that, 499 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 1: and if they don't get it, they're like, well, what 500 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: was this about? And it's like, we can just exist, right, 501 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: and and this movie does tackle those things, but it 502 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: tackles it on a more like subtle microaggression way that 503 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: I think we'll fly over some people's heads. Just based 504 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 1: on what some people have said coming out of Sundance. 505 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, you just didn't see it, because now 506 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: we're now we know the big race, we know that, 507 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: don't say the hard art, we know that, don't be 508 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,719 Speaker 1: prejudice aspect of it. So now we're trying to get 509 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: you all to understand the levels. And now y'all are 510 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: missing that because y'all not looking for that, doing that 511 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: you ready for? Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Some kind 512 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: of that writer seemed real angry or something, you know. 513 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: I know, I'm I'm coming into the hot from over under. 514 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: We ain't even got to the news stories yet, know, 515 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: and I'm just already just throwing blows. But some good, 516 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: some good stuff. To watch this. Yeah, nanny sounds good. 517 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 1: All right, let's get into the news. Pete Buddha judge 518 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: it Miles. I think you referenced this last week in 519 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 1: our first episode back. But you know, Secretary of Transportation 520 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: to him, nobody's looking at him. Where it turns out, 521 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: so if you only watch mainstream news, it'll look like 522 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: only Fox News is looking at him. But basically investigative 523 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: journalist took a look at like dug into some communications, 524 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: did some foy in, and up to one million travelers 525 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: were stranded by Southwest Airlines over the holiday season. This 526 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: investigative journalist uncovered documents showed that showed that Democratic state 527 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: officials and congressional lawmakers had repeatedly begged Buddha gedge too 528 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: tough and rules to deter airlines from mistreating their customers essentially, 529 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: which you know, and Southwest stranded all those people and 530 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: didn't was just like yeah, sorry, I mean, what do 531 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: you want to say? Guess like your bags are in 532 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: l a somewhere just going down. Just look for them. 533 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: Oh y'all got the same bag? Whoops? Yeah, it's it's 534 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: It is interesting because all during that time, if you 535 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: watch like CNN or MSNBC or whatever, they're like gridlock, 536 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: what's going on? It's Southwest? And that was sort of 537 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: like the the depth of like the analysis was just like, 538 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? Folks? Seems like a real 539 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: bummer out there without actually telling people like who who 540 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,479 Speaker 1: could do something about this? This seems all bad, right. 541 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: It seems like they're just doing whatever they want. Where 542 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: are the regulations where the regulators is the only he's 543 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: the sole airline regulator under federal law, but they wouldn't. 544 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: They didn't cover that on any of the mainstream is 545 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: also Southwest Airlines experienced a similar meltdown a year ago, 546 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:11,479 Speaker 1: and this latest meltdown was made possible or actually they 547 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: like interviewed this economist William McGee who said Southwest was 548 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: inevitable after Buddha Judge failed to punish awful behavior all year, 549 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: So he's not acting to protect consumers, to protect the 550 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: American people, which is like you know that ship happens, 551 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: you know, ship gets missed, People loose focus or like 552 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: not good at their jobs. But the thing that's truly 553 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: kind of outrageous about this is that nobody like as 554 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: this investigative journalism was uncovering this and reporting it in Jacobin. 555 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: The it was only being covered by Fox News, the 556 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: New York Post, News, Max House, Republicans, Donald Trump Jr. 557 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: Was like retweeting it, so you would like, I was 558 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: under the assumption, Okay, so this is probably a bullshit 559 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: story until you see that the sourcing goes back to 560 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: just good old school journalism and you know, uncovering somebody 561 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 1: not helping people where they could have. And there were 562 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: also these articles like one newspaper openly ridiculed attacks on 563 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: Buddha Judges record, pretending critics were ignoring the simple reality 564 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: that his department does not have direct control over airlines. 565 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: That was that was, I think that was. The Independent 566 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: wrote that The Independent wrote that ship, oh yeah, literally 567 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: the airline regulator. The Independent wrote that The Hill wrote 568 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: that criticism of Buddha Judge is just petty Bernie Sanders bros. 569 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: Who are like mad at him from the the Prime.

And I think that's really hard because the 668 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: other part of it is, like you're saying, Jack, you're 669 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: not educating people like on how ship works, like just 670 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: about basic civics lesson like if you have people rampantly 671 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: being like I saw in that same Independent article they 672 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: were like showing like and even Democrats are saying, like, 673 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: you know, it's not his fault. Where someone's like one 674 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,760 Speaker 1: of these democratic influencers, like I mean, boot Pete Buddha 675 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: Jadge isn't the CEO of like the Storm, What do 676 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: they expect him to do? It's all yeah, teaching them 677 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: not just to like not educate and not but it's 678 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: teaching them to ignore and to like you know, do 679 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: these mental gymnastics at a time where like it's really 680 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: dangerous for we're supposed to be like learning how to 681 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 1: learn some very difficult truths. Like right now the world 682 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: is in a very you know phasing the next ten 683 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 1: twenty years where mass extinction. Yeah, we're facing the sixth 684 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: mass extinction. We're going to need to get through to people. 685 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: And we're teaching them to like do this sort of 686 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: mental gymnastics just to get on board with the right 687 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: team because we think that they're the better of too 688 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: bad alternatives. It just doesn't We're no longer in a 689 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 1: place where that's viable. And in fact, this is like 690 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: very dangerous because you're teaching them how to ignore, you're 691 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 1: teaching them how to like you know, swallow these lies 692 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 1: and like you know, argue on behalf of them. He's 693 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 1: not the CEO of the storm. And it gets fascism 694 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 1: ground to stand on. And fascism is the thing in 695 00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: the United States that keeps coming. The left gets gets ignored, 696 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,240 Speaker 1: it gets dismissed, the you know body politic is allergic 697 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: to leftism. Fascism keeps coming in this country and it's 698 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 1: gonna keep coming. And that's we're we're in a really 699 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: dangerous position if we can if we don't have any 700 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: mainstream media that actually is willing to tell the truth 701 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 1: about this ship. Yeah, because everyone's keeping score. Yeah yeah, 702 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: And I mean it even kind of leads into this 703 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: next story about like just like because this is the 704 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: kind of this is the kind of world that like 705 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,760 Speaker 1: people like Tucker Carlson need where people have completely given 706 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: up on the ability of government to do anything. Because 707 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: that's truly again, how like you're saying that makes you 708 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,919 Speaker 1: more open to more extreme solutions because you'll be like, yeah, 709 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: we already tried this government like democratic ship. What's this 710 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: other guy saying? Oh yeah, I like I like his 711 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 1: funk them up attitude. This might work. And Fox is 712 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: in the they're in a really interesting like situation again, 713 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 1: as the speaker fight keeps going, like I don't know 714 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: if Kevin mccar the has taken like seventeen straight l's 715 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 1: for like a vote for speaker as it stands, I 716 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 1: believe he is not yet the speaker, or at least 717 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 1: as of this recording. And we've played like last week 718 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: he played a clip on how like Hannity was getting 719 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: tired of Lauren Bolberg and talking like her obstructionism. As 720 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 1: he was saying, He's like, why don't you pack it in? 721 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: And the other never Kevin's like what the funk? Like 722 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: what do we look stupid out here? And then Brian 723 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,280 Speaker 1: Kilmeade even called one of his fellow insurrectionists a literal 724 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: insurrectionists and was like, oh, sorry, I didn't mean to 725 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 1: use yeah, and like Laura Ingram, Laura Ingram even told 726 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: Matt Gates to get on with it and that he 727 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: was playing with fire by messing around with this. But 728 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: one person on this news channel, on Fashion or Fox News, uh, 729 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: isn't towing the line like the rest, and that's Tucker Carlson. 730 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 1: He's steadily been marching to his own beat or maybe 731 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 1: the kremlins of like this is a good thing that 732 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 1: the government can't operate. Actually, this is democracy in action. 733 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: He's also decided to give the holdouts like some additional 734 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 1: notes on concessions they should be extracting from Kevin McCarthy, like, 735 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 1: you know, make the house completely Like basically you should 736 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,800 Speaker 1: get McCarthy to start a probe and at the FBI 737 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: and have all the footage from January six released because 738 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,839 Speaker 1: this is like part of his conspiratorial thinking about it 739 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,240 Speaker 1: with like Antifa, and you know, he just he feels 740 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: like this this help and then even accused McCarthy. He 741 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: was like, he's like, are you really going to trust 742 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 1: a guy who are is like a Ukraine pin? Wait? What, well, 743 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: what do you think why? Because I mean what reason? 744 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 1: I mean he's a clearly sounds an awful lot like 745 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 1: an attempt to begin to erode the financial backing of 746 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 1: Ukraine as they're fighting Russia. Is that like just shorthand 747 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 1: at this point on his show, like his audience all 748 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: is like Ukraine, well, we all know they're the best. Yeah, 749 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: I mean if you listen to him enough, he's not. 750 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: He's not like full throated being like we got it 751 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 1: back Ukraine. He's like, well, I don't know should we be. 752 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: We got a lot of problems here like over there. 753 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 1: And then like the other part of the Fox is like, 754 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 1: hey man, we're with the military industrial complex. What then 755 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: you're talking about get this money? Flu shut the funk up. 756 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 1: But again, this is part of his you know, clearly 757 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 1: he wants to keep continue to erode the faith or 758 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: whatever that is, and especially if the government's not operating. 759 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,880 Speaker 1: That is huge for people like Tucker Carlson, for people 760 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: like Steve Bannon. They want people to look at the 761 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 1: government as being a total joke, like that, that's the 762 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: that's what that's step one of being able to really 763 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: blow ship out. Because the second everyone's like, no, it's 764 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: it's a joke, it's all bullshit, whatever, then you're pretty 765 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,760 Speaker 1: pretty much anything is on the table at that point, 766 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: or at least it won't sound inappropriate. So, you know, 767 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: it's just like an odd place because on one hand, 768 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: Fox and GEOP, the GOP, they've both chosen like this 769 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 1: very easy path of just feeding their audience increasingly extremist 770 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: viewpoints to like bolster support. But in that process they've 771 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: also had to be somewhat tethered to reality, which is 772 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: also affecting their audience. Like when they called Arizona for Biden. 773 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: That was like a mortal sin for those people who 774 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: are also fed the diet of misinformation like what do 775 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 1: you mean that's that's happening, or you know, trying to 776 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: have pretend that they aren't spewing election denial fantasies to 777 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 1: being you know, avoid being sued into oblivion. It's a 778 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: lot of like simultaneous reaping of the sewing and like 779 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: it's weird ways and like Kevin McCarthy if he if 780 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: he ends up being speaker, he's gonna be so weakened 781 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 1: because he's giving the entire the ability of the speaker's 782 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 1: position to sort of dictate the schedule of legislation and 783 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 1: what gets voted on, etcetera. And you know, like I 784 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know what good it does anybody 785 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:45,400 Speaker 1: at that point, but we will see how this So 786 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 1: these are the people who are winning, right, Like Fox 787 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: News is the side that is winning. If they are 788 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 1: making it so that the mainstream media can't tell the 789 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 1: truth about a story when the Democratic side sucks up, 790 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: like because they know that Fox is you know, going 791 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 1: to be twisting things, then they've they've won. They've redefined 792 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: the game to to their ends. And you know, it 793 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,839 Speaker 1: as bad as weird and like, you know, untenable as 794 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: their position seems, it does seem like they still determine 795 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: the rules of war when it comes to how stories 796 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: are told in the current media landscape in a way 797 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:29,919 Speaker 1: that you know, even fairly recently they what probably wasn't 798 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: the case. Well, I guess my one question is this then, 799 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: because what really looks like is there's there's been this 800 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 1: internal kind of civil war with the right right where 801 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,879 Speaker 1: you had your like what we'll call classic conservatives kind 802 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 1: of battling out with the far right and you and 803 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: that's kind of the holdouts here. So do we think 804 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 1: this is a good thing that it seems like to 805 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,840 Speaker 1: be this small community of whack jobs that are holding 806 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,240 Speaker 1: out or do we look at this as, uh, they 807 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 1: are regaining power because their figurehead essentially was like, you 808 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:09,399 Speaker 1: know Trump, who was you know, uh there. But even 809 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 1: though there's a little bit of Trump and all of 810 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: that party, I think you have the side of the 811 00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 1: people who are like, we're gonna outright saying you know, 812 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 1: wild ship like like we like we were saying the Tuckle, 813 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: the Tucker Carlson's of it and the Matt Gates of 814 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: it all, which I'm like, how about you worry about 815 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 1: your case, my boy. But uh, and then you have 816 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 1: you know, the people who are trying to play ball 817 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: and parlay and and try and pretend like they have 818 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 1: some civility. Well it's like they have. They're gonna these 819 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: like holdouts there in a rough spot like part of 820 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: them is like, yeah, we did that. Hold that Kevin McCarthy. 821 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you thought you were the speaker that you 822 00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 1: moved in a little too quick. But then on the 823 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: other side, right, you have two hundred Republicans who are like, 824 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: the fund is, what the funk are they doing? The 825 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,240 Speaker 1: funk are y'all doing? We need to fucking move along 826 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 1: with this ship. My Karthy already promised me spots and 827 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: ship that I need. I want to get this ship going, 828 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: already made my deal with him. Cut your fucking deal 829 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: with him, and let's go. But then on the other 830 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: side of it, you also have people in that two 831 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,399 Speaker 1: hundred of the establishment Democrats that are behind McCarthy. They're 832 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 1: also telling McCarthy, don't be cutting deals with them, you know, 833 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: don't don't give them a gavel position, like as the 834 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: chair of a committee or subcommittee. Are you fucking dumb. 835 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 1: I've been in this ship for fifty fucking your forty 836 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 1: years or whatever, and you're gonna let this fucking racist 837 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: who sells etsy like KKK fucking coffee mugs and ship 838 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: like they're gonna let that person run a commite I've 839 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: put a lot of time into this. So they're up 840 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 1: against it, and really, all it's gonna do, it's just 841 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 1: gonna it's only gonna further create more rot within the 842 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 1: party because everyone is pissed at each other right now. 843 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 1: And then on top of it, you have some Republicans like, 844 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: fucking man, just cut a deal with the Democrats, then 845 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,360 Speaker 1: like fucking leave them behind at least we can figure 846 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: something out. And then you have a group of Republicans 847 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: like I will fuck I will never fucking vote for 848 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: anything thing that gives power to the Democrats, even in 849 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 1: a shared situation. So it's a lose lose situation. I 850 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 1: don't think it necessarily Bolsters like their power. They're just obstructing. 851 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: And from that position, they're like, it's only creating more 852 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 1: resentment to them specifically as a group. Now what that 853 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,879 Speaker 1: means for like their constituents who probably love it because 854 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:22,879 Speaker 1: they probably rode in on a horse of like get 855 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 1: McCarthy out of here and all these rhinos. I mean again, 856 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: but this is what happens when they they let the 857 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: fucking monsters in it. I feel like it's more likely 858 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 1: that we see them like give concessions to the extremist wing, 859 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,280 Speaker 1: the extremist called outs than there is that like there's 860 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 1: some sort of coalition, like you know, so yeah, and 861 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people like don't. A lot 862 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 1: of people say it's impossible, but you never know. Yeah, 863 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 1: I mean because the other thing is like soon you 864 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 1: might see people try to spin it at how come 865 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: the Democrats won't work with them? Yeah? Yeah, you know, 866 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 1: it's like what they're like nearly antithetical on most things, 867 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 1: like like you know, policy wise, But I don't know. 868 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: That's why it's very very uh, it's it's gonna be 869 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be like a strained fight for the speakers possession, 870 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,319 Speaker 1: and then at the end of it, I'm not sure 871 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: we'll see how efficiently or inefficiently runs. All right, let's 872 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: take a quick break, we'll come back, we'll talk Netflix, 873 00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:46,399 Speaker 1: and we're back. And so Netflix has been canceling. They 874 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: canceled over fifteen shows in twenty twenty two over Yeah, 875 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: I think it ended up closer to like nineteen by 876 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: the end of the year. So they canceled a show 877 00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,240 Speaker 1: from the creators of Dark. Did y'all ever watch Dark? 878 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 1: That German like sci fi lost type ship. I heard 879 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 1: people raving about it, but I did not watch didn't 880 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 1: you watch it, Jack? I watched like the first season 881 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 1: of it. It's solid. It is solid, it's like what 882 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: it recaptures some of what you got from like watching 883 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: Lost that first season a little and like it's even 884 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 1: more self contained. So I don't know. I I recommend it, 885 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 1: even though I didn't complete the entire first season. That 886 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: the one thing I would say is do not do 887 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 1: the like English dub, just do just fucking suck it 888 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: up and read the subject. Yeah. I typically I if 889 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 1: it if they have subsuningum subs. Yeah, this was the 890 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,640 Speaker 1: first time. For some reason, I think it defaulted to 891 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,320 Speaker 1: like the dub, and so I just watched like three 892 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: episodes with the dub and I was like, man, this 893 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:58,279 Speaker 1: is terrible. I don't know if people about yeah, they're 894 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,439 Speaker 1: all bad actors and I was like, oh no, it's 895 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: just yeah. And then you turned the subtitles on, You're like, oh, 896 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,919 Speaker 1: they're all great actors. The big change. Anyways, Dark is cool. 897 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 1: They released they developed and released a new show from 898 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 1: the creator of Dark and it's first week that it 899 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 1: drops back in November, it was called It hit the 900 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,919 Speaker 1: number two slot on the Netflix Top ten, behind only 901 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 1: The Crown stayed on the top ten for weeks and 902 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: then like a couple of weeks later it just got 903 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 1: canceled and everyone was confused. And that this has happened 904 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,919 Speaker 1: with a couple of other shows this year where it's 905 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,520 Speaker 1: not you know, Netflix will drop stuff and just bury 906 00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:40,800 Speaker 1: it and it will like we'll just like not exist, 907 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 1: and that's funked up. But there's been some shows where 908 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,759 Speaker 1: they like, there's a teen vampire drama called First Kill 909 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 1: that was all over their top ten and they canceled it. 910 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 1: And so the secret behind this is something called completion 911 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 1: rate that they value over everything else. And that is 912 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 1: what what you would think it is, is like what 913 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:08,360 Speaker 1: percentage of people who start a show actually finish it? 914 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 1: And so yeah, so the these shows that get in 915 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 1: their top ten because they've got a lot of people 916 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: like starting them and watching the first couple episodes, they 917 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: have low completion rates, which suggests to Netflix, well then 918 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 1: nobody's going to you know, tune in for two or 919 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: what you know, season two, so that they do billboard 920 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: charts like that. Yeah, you know what I mean, because 921 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, like when people when Drake 922 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:41,359 Speaker 1: puts out like a forty six song album, and like 923 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: it's like yeah, and they'll just play back to back 924 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:45,319 Speaker 1: and then at the top of the charts because like 925 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 1: listen time, like how many people are even just like 926 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: bailing after like halfway through the third track or something. 927 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 1: But I just feel like it's interesting to see that 928 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: at least for them, they know that is actually the 929 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 1: most valuable thing in terms of making content. It's like, well, 930 00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,360 Speaker 1: I don't care if it's number one, like people have 931 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 1: to watch it to justify the cost. Right, what do 932 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: you guys feelings about that? Because like part of me 933 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,719 Speaker 1: is like but with with music in particular, part of 934 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: me is like, yeah, all the songs, I don't I 935 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 1: don't give a ship, like don't be precious, because like 936 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 1: you know, there have been some great albums that like 937 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 1: Bob Dylan has a couple albums where like he's just 938 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:26,360 Speaker 1: cut songs that were great, but he just like felt 939 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: didn't fit the vibe of the album and like they 940 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: don't come out for like thirty years or whatever. So 941 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,719 Speaker 1: like the this new model of just like putting all 942 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: the songs out and letting people sort of edit together 943 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 1: their own version of the album. I don't hey, But 944 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 1: it's also like I do appreciate a flawless album, you 945 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 1: know it's but yeah, what's built in is the cynicism 946 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 1: of making as much money as first. That's it. That's 947 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: why I don't like it because I'm like, because that's 948 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 1: also songs are so short too, Like it's like, well 949 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,319 Speaker 1: you just keep looping that or you know that. A 950 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,359 Speaker 1: lot of it is also being affected by how people 951 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 1: consume music on TikTok so away, like everything is evolving, 952 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 1: so do whatever you do, like put out a fucking 953 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: album because my favorite song of the year it's like 954 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: a minute and a half. Yo. But but that's what 955 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 1: they're saying. They're also saying that this metric of completion rate, 956 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: like that's skewed in favor of shorter, more easily digestible 957 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 1: shows that you're just you know, like if your shows 958 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: like got fifteen minute episodes where it's like Emily in 959 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 1: Paris and it's just something you're like throwing on the background, 960 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 1: it's going to have a higher completion rate, like if 961 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 1: it's just not challenging. So I don't know, it does 962 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:47,800 Speaker 1: it does seem to be anything that's metrics driven around 963 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,840 Speaker 1: art is gonna be a little problematic. Look what it 964 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 1: did the video. Look what it did the digital video, 965 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It used to be like, yeah, man, 966 00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 1: you could upload videos on the internet and they're like 967 00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,080 Speaker 1: that ship can't be more than fifty three second in 968 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 1: the asshole and they were so and like and then 969 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:12,279 Speaker 1: they're like time, it's all about It's not about watch time. 970 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,000 Speaker 1: It's that some people can make content that people will 971 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: watch longer than others. That's what it is. It's not 972 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,120 Speaker 1: by virtue of the length of time. But yeah, I 973 00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,839 Speaker 1: think that this is always when you know, as quick 974 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 1: Quincy Jones would say this one God leaves the room's 975 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 1: metrics and when money comes into the conversation, When metrics 976 00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:32,439 Speaker 1: come to the conversation, that's when God leaves. God leaves 977 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 1: the room, babe, ain't no God in there. And I 978 00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: was a big metrics guy when I was, you know, 979 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 1: running Cracked. I definitely believed in metrics because their parent 980 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 1: company was like a big metrics company, so I kind 981 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 1: of had to. But yeah, I think anyone who was 982 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 1: making digital content and that had to be it was 983 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: all about KPI s and all that. Ship. Yeah, but 984 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, like, are there are there any shows 985 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 1: that you guys have like felt got gone too soon 986 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: in the digital world that you want to see like 987 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,680 Speaker 1: given another or not in the digital like on streaming, 988 00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:06,759 Speaker 1: that you want to see given another chance. I feel 989 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 1: like we get plenty of digital content. I was just 990 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 1: watching Chronicles on HBO Max. I thought that it was cool. Yeah, 991 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 1: and that Sally there's there's a ton of I mean 992 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:20,240 Speaker 1: so much. It's hard. Honestly, I'm kind of desensitized because 993 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 1: the rhythm of content coming out is so intense. They're like, oh, right, 994 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:27,520 Speaker 1: like season three is out. I'm like, I forgot about 995 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 1: season two of that other show, right, here's the thing 996 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 1: for And this is what I truly feel about when 997 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 1: these quote unquote metrics, because you know, I've seen the 998 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 1: metrics for the digital stuff we've worked on, and we 999 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:43,720 Speaker 1: know it's real. I would love to see Netflix actually 1000 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 1: post these metrics because it really feels like more of 1001 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: a cop out than anything. Because you can't tell me 1002 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: the platform that created people binging almost three to five 1003 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 1: hours of content is now like, oh, we like the 1004 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: easily digestible stuff. You can't tell me these shows that 1005 00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 1: are blowing that are these hour longs which are going nuts. 1006 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,759 Speaker 1: You know, it's like I feel like there's copouts, and 1007 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,280 Speaker 1: I feel like it what it is when it always 1008 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:13,320 Speaker 1: comes to Hollywood things like this is money because I think, 1009 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:18,279 Speaker 1: you know, TV is so elusive when it's like on 1010 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 1: the traditional networks because we're just kind of like, okay, 1011 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 1: we hope it did good, but we're going off on 1012 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: Nielsen's and all this stuff. But like when Netflix shows 1013 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:31,360 Speaker 1: are bopping, you know, you got people globally on Twitter, 1014 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:33,799 Speaker 1: you've got trending and all that, and then when you 1015 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: come back to the bargaining table with that type of information, 1016 00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna get your coins. So you know, it doesn't 1017 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:42,839 Speaker 1: it doesn't, you know, And it's always been this like 1018 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 1: on this third season. Nothing Nothing gets past the third season, 1019 00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:50,760 Speaker 1: which you know traditionally inside baseball usually when contracts get renegotiated. 1020 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 1: So I would I would personally love to see the 1021 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 1: metrics that that are being upheld and and and that's 1022 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,959 Speaker 1: not just being you absconding and waiting out to see 1023 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:06,239 Speaker 1: as we go into a year, you know, but we're 1024 00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 1: I mean both with between SAG, the w g A 1025 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 1: and I'm sure the d g A, we're starting to 1026 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:15,800 Speaker 1: come for streaming because streaming is this weird thing where, uh, 1027 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: you know, your show goes on there, you don't, you 1028 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 1: don't get the same. You know, when when I was 1029 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 1: doing a show before, they played it once again every 1030 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 1: that same night. So they would play when it aired, 1031 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:31,960 Speaker 1: um and it usually aired at midnight. I'll let you 1032 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: guess which show that was, and then it would air again, 1033 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,120 Speaker 1: and so they'd had to pay us every time it aired, 1034 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 1: and it was a daily show, and it was like 1035 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,160 Speaker 1: a nice little extra bump. But you know, if it's 1036 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 1: on streaming, you people can watch that fifty million times 1037 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 1: and we're really not gonna see any type of payment 1038 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,520 Speaker 1: for that. So now we're getting to this point where, 1039 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 1: like you know, W G A. SAG actors were starting 1040 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 1: to be like where's my coins? And now we're getting 1041 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 1: to this era where they're trying to be like, well, 1042 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:02,640 Speaker 1: we're not gonna let shows run that that long. We're 1043 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 1: not gonna give We're already cutting down the the season orders, 1044 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:11,200 Speaker 1: you know, like I'm rewatching Lost. The first season is 1045 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 1: twenty two episodes. You know, you don't get a two 1046 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 1: episode first season anymore. You definitely don't get it on streaming. Streaming, 1047 00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 1: you're lucky if you get a ten episode. It's eight 1048 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 1: to ten episodes, so it's really just kind of the 1049 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 1: dance around paying the people that need to be paid 1050 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 1: while y'all raking billions, you know, you know, follow the money. 1051 00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 1: As they said, the problem is, like they would be like, 1052 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 1: the thing is that show was actually too popping, so 1053 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:40,120 Speaker 1: they actually wanted like appropriate money to keep. We don't 1054 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: really do that. We like to take make bets on 1055 00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 1: three seasons. M that was like, it's funny. I just 1056 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: saw a clip of Snoop Dogg talking about I don't 1057 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 1: know if you remember on MTV he did that show 1058 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:52,920 Speaker 1: Doggy Fizzle Televissile that like it was like a comedy 1059 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:54,880 Speaker 1: show that's new and it was funny. There was like 1060 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 1: a segment called black Ass where it was just based 1061 00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: on like black people can't do that jackass ship or 1062 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 1: or it's like the stakes are way different coming up 1063 00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 1: to a cop and trying to funk with him. And 1064 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: I remember the really funny show. It was only around 1065 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,280 Speaker 1: for one season, and what happened was he said, he said, 1066 00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: oh yeah, like it was popping. MTV loved it. They 1067 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 1: come back. They said, hey man, we we already got 1068 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 1: everybody on board for season two, like we got all 1069 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: your like the hair people, the camera people, they're all 1070 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 1: locked in, the writers like they're they're good with this 1071 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,040 Speaker 1: new deal or whatever. And then Snoop was like, yeah, 1072 00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna need more money. And they're like, oh, 1073 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 1: the thing is you know you do we we got 1074 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:32,080 Speaker 1: you in a two season contract and he said, yeah, 1075 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 1: I don't care. That first season was is popping, so 1076 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,240 Speaker 1: we're not if we're not going to have the same deals, 1077 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 1: like I don't think. He was basic like I don't 1078 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: care what and and they said, okay, well, you know, 1079 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:43,640 Speaker 1: we can't really do anything because he signed the papers. 1080 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 1: They told him. The season two shooting date was like 1081 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, January ten, January, tent shows up, he doesn't 1082 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:52,439 Speaker 1: show up, and he said, nine am, I'm not there, 1083 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,520 Speaker 1: ten am, I'm not there, two pm, i'm not there, 1084 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 1: four pm, I'm not there. And finally they just asked, 1085 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:01,000 Speaker 1: what's going on. I said, I'm not doing it. End 1086 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 1: of the show because he was just he was so 1087 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: about his coins that and also I think he was 1088 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 1: like I don't even know traditional business deals, but this 1089 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:13,160 Speaker 1: but it's true. Yeah, yeah, MTV not always the greatest 1090 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:16,720 Speaker 1: to talent that they work with, They were paying people 1091 01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: like it was digital content before digital content was the thing. 1092 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 1: I will I will say, you know, yeah, they the 1093 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 1: parent company, which I think technically doesn't exist anymore. So 1094 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 1: I feel like, like, but that parent company, yeah, Vicom, 1095 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 1: because I think now it's within Paramount, right, which you know, 1096 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 1: CBS Paramount, which I do love and everything, but Vicom, 1097 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:44,400 Speaker 1: which is of course very different and not the same thing. Yeah, 1098 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:48,360 Speaker 1: truly has a history. And I'll leave of just being 1099 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,760 Speaker 1: like you have to get it going with them, and 1100 01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:53,880 Speaker 1: I think it's mostly too when you think about the 1101 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 1: history of television, if you some people know that, some don't. 1102 01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 1: But you know, reality TV came from the big writer 1103 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,080 Speaker 1: strike that happened. That's really when it blew up. And 1104 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:07,280 Speaker 1: I think MTV and viacom a lot of their shows. 1105 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 1: We're able to make the most out of it. You know, 1106 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 1: you had Team Mom, you got the Challenge, you got 1107 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 1: Real World, so you were able to keep cooking. And 1108 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 1: I think that so they're used to being like, well, 1109 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 1: you know, the anything scripted is not our bottom line, 1110 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,600 Speaker 1: you know anything, you know, like like we can we 1111 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 1: can move with you so you can get what we offer, 1112 01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 1: or we'll just make another another thing like that, And 1113 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,800 Speaker 1: I think that's kind of why they've had the history. 1114 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:36,080 Speaker 1: But you know what happened to Spider Games MTV two. 1115 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:40,280 Speaker 1: I was watching that Ship Took Away, that drama show 1116 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 1: about a fledgling gaming company that was like the worst 1117 01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 1: soap opera I've ever seen.
