52
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,560

Speaker 1: about the Hall of Presidents at Disney World, all of

56
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: that plenty more. But first, Mike, we like to ask

57
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: our guests, what is something from your search history that's

58
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: revealing about who you are? My? Uh, okay, so I

59
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: released a book about a video game yester, and so

60
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: my last few searches are like Mike Drucker Silent Hill

61
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: to Mike Drucker Silent Hill to reviews. So it's really narcissism,

62
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: Like my most recent search history is narcissism about whether

63
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: people hate a book about a video game or not. Right.

64
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: Oh no, I was gonna say the Silent Hill too.

65
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like everybody likes it based on

66
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: I've seen passively about your writings on what you I mean,

67
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: Silent Hill two is one of those games where like

68
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: I didn't realize what I had till after the fact. Yes, yes,

69
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: that's exactly right. It's so good. Yeah, and like, yeah

70
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: I haven't I'm I'm definitely gonna read it. Part of

71
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: me was like, damn, I should have asked him that

72
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: I wanted to read that ship before he came on.

73
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I'm so. People like it. People are working

74
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: with the vision. Um do you think but for something

75
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: like when you write about a video game that you

76
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: love and like its place, Yeah, other people's opinions, can

77
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: they really affect you at that point because you have

78
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 1: to be so like you're like, you're so secure and

79
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: what's your statement is that it's like I've got that

80
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: out here, You're not seeing the matrix like I am, um, yeah,

81
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: some sometimes, I mean it also sometimes helps you expand

82
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: a bit. Like you know, there's times I've seen people's

83
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: opinions where I'm like, oh, I didn't think of that

84
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: specific thing, and that's a good point. So it doesn't

85
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: like make me dislike it. It's not like if someone's

86
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: like this game, Like a lot of the reviews at

87
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: the time it came out were kind of lukewarm and

88
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: saying it wasn't as good as the first one. So

89
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: it doesn't affect my opinion. But I do like hearing

90
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: what other people think because it was a divisive game

91
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: at the time. And the name of the book is

92
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: Silent Hill too. You just went with you just kind

93
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: of you just like kind of pitched the idea of

94
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: the book to to our listeners real quick. Oh sure,

95
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: Um it's this. Uh, A lot of listeners might be

96
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: more familiar with those thirty three and the third books,

97
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: and each one's about a specific album, and this is

98
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: kind of that. But it's a line of books called

99
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,239
Speaker 1: Boss Fight Books, and each book is about a different

100
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: video game. Um. So this is the seven book in

101
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: the series and the only one I've written. Just to

102
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: be clear, I didn't write all twenty seven right, nice?

103
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: All right? What is something you think is underrated? Um? Underrated?

104
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: I think are like desk accessories. I think people just

105
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 1: throw random things on their desk, and I think you

106
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: really need to cultivate it. If you have like fifty

107
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: fun copops, it's bad. If you have nothing on your desk,

108
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 1: you look crazy. It's it's a really careful cultivation process

109
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: that I'm still working on. Yeah, I don't know why

110
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: that was my first thought, but it was. I think

111
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: because I'm always in my bedroom at my desk that

112
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, I spend so much time thinking about this, yeah,

113
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: looking at the same thing. Basically, I think that is

114
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: your reality as the desk exactly what do you? Well?

115
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: What do you have on your desk? Let's do a

116
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: little show and tell. What do you go? Let's see

117
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: show and tell. All right, Now it's a little messy

118
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: now because I moved things around to set up to record,

119
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 1: But I have a Ninja Turtles little melted pops. Whoa

120
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: got got that I got? Let's see? I have a

121
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: card board Nintendo Labo keyboard ship damn ye yeah yeah,

122
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: and then I have a fact man O whoa wow.

123
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: So I get it, we get it. We're not going

124
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: to question your game, your interest in gaming based on

125
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: ye please don't question that. That is the one thing

126
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: you can solidly say in your eighties and nineties baby culture,

127
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: with the with the with the teenage mutant industry ice cream.

Speaker 1: So I think we're we're gonna give it away but

155
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: clear it off. Yeah. I feel like old Max weirdly

156
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: do well on eBay. Like people. I feel like I

157
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: looked up like an old laptop once and they don't

158
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: like go full price or anything, but they I feel

159
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 1: like they go weirdly well on eBay. Huh. Yeah. I

160
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 1: had somebody I for like a production I did. I

161
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: had an old iMac like an o G like Launch

162
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,599
Speaker 1: when they have flavors. I had a blueberry iMac that

163
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: I my mom just does not throw sh it away,

164
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: And I remember I needed a prop for this like

165
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,599
Speaker 1: video we were doing. I was like, oh, let me

166
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: get this. I had three people at this convention offer

167
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: me cash for it. It was like exorbitant sums of money.

168
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: But three people were like, oh my god, that can

169
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: I can I buy that off of you. I love

170
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: like old like retro turn of the century max stuff century.

171
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: When I was in Denmark, I went to the design

172
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,839
Speaker 1: of like Danish design museum, the iMac is in their

173
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: line an exhibit like to be like heralded as like

174
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: this real like turning point in design. So I was like, damn,

175
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: Like maybe maybe we were sleeping on that. But I

176
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: need I need some This is a new desk for

177
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: me in the past like a few weeks, and I

178
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: need to I need to spruce it up a little bit,

179
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 1: give it a little bit of personality. Right now, it

180
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: is purely task oriented and garbage oriented. Uh. I also

181
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: have a just really like old Ralph's shopping bags that

182
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,959
Speaker 1: I throw my trash and just hanging from the mic stand.

183
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: Uh So really I'm not I'm not following the path

184
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: that one should be to keep their space from polluting

185
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,079
Speaker 1: their brain. Um, but hey, this is a good reminder

186
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: and I appreciate it. Mike, what is something you think

187
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 1: is overrated? Um? I had trouble thinking of something that's overrated.

188
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 1: But one thing that I think is overrated because I'm

189
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: scared of it's owning a house. I feel like I'd

190
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: rather prefer to think of it as like that's overrated

191
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: then actually engage in something that terrifies me. I'm big too, honestly,

192
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: like Star Wars, like it said, I was like, I

193
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 1: don't know, having a baby is that overrated? Let's talk

194
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: about it? Yeah, I'm going to I'm sorry. The city

195
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 1: are you in, Mike, New York? I'm in New York? Yeah,

196
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: because I feel like, did you where did you grow up?

197
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: I grew up in South Florida though, okay, so because

198
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: I feel like I know like people who like I

199
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: have friends who grew up in New York who have

200
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: the very like that block of like home thing. But

201
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: it has the city changed your outlook on that, Like

202
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: has that influenced your feeling of it being overrated? Or

203
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 1: I think it's more that my parents were bad with

204
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: money when I was a kid, and so for me,

205
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: I was always like, what's the point of doing this?

206
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 1: It still seems like it doesn't you know, it seems

207
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: like you don't really own the house, not realizing my

208
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: parents were very bad with money at that moment that

209
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: it wasn't like it wasn't just like the bank showing

210
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: up being like, hey guys, we decided we wanted back right,

211
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: this is overrated mom. As a kid, that's how I

212
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: felt like. I was almost like, why do we all?

213
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 1: Why did you buy this? So I think it's like

214
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: it's less than it is really overrated, but something that

215
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: like in my fad almost I always had a mental

216
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 1: block on and I'm like, no, nobody, that's not real. Yeah, absolutely,

217
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 1: I just love that idea. Yeah they I don't know

218
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: why they kept making the same mistake. Really, that's how

219
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: I felt. Well, that's also the speaks of the power

220
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: of like how much of our financial literacy and idea

221
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: of finances just comes from our parents. Like I have

222
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: parents who didn't make a lot of money but also

223
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: didn't talk about it, so I just grew up being

224
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: like I don't know, I think you work and then

225
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 1: and then like you could have a kid, but I

226
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: can't always have new shoes, so there's level to it.

227
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: But no one's like you gotta save and my dad

228
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: like not until I was out of college, and I

229
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, man, like the second I got married,

230
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: I started to save him for your college. I was like, what,

231
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: I never you didn't tell me. I'm I'm sitting here

232
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: with nine thousand dollar sneakers on and you're telling me

233
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: now I gotta say, fuck, I'm all fucked up nine dollars.

234
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: I don't have no nine times. Well do you think

235
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: I was at the fucking inauguration and those deal with

236
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: Jordan's no. Uh, yeah, I'm fully financially illiterate, as we're

237
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: about to learn when we discuss uh, wall Street, you

238
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: didn't big on games to the point that I'm very

239
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: similar with Wall Street. I like resent wall Street. I'm like,

240
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: this is all just like made up lingo bullshit fuck off.

241
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: And I feel like a lot of America's that way.

242
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: And that's where uh, some of this is coming from.

243
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: But let's take a quick break and we'll come back

244
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: and talk about that and we're back. Uh. And So

245
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,599
Speaker 1: I read an article this morning, which is where my

246
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: entire understanding of this comes from, on Bloomberg dot Com

247
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: that uh covers this story from a Wall Street perspective

248
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: with like amused tolerance. It's like they keep commenting on

249
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: the juvenile tone of the subreddit and making fun of

250
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: the spelling errors. But zoom out real quick, let people

251
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 1: know what we're even tough because most people like this

252
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: only started beginning. People started talking about the last day,

253
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: and if you're not fully your ear to the internet,

254
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: you might not know what happened. Right, So, yeah, Miles,

255
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: the floor is yours. Why don't you explain? Yeah, as

256
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: the resident guy who just admitted he knows funk all

257
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: about finances, I'm gonna toss this pot potato over to

258
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: Michael Drucker. Hello, Hello, Uh Now, keep in mind that

259
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: I'm going explain some of this wrong so someone will

260
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: listen to this and go, that's not what's happening, and

261
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: that's okay. You're right and you have been so. Basically,

262
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: game Stop, the stock itself has been suffering for about

263
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: a decade because nobody wants to buy video games and

264
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: person any more. People order games off Amazon, they order

265
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: them digitally. You know, people wait in line for a

266
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: PlayStation five. But game stop, if you've been inside a

267
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: sort of a dying store. So the stock price over

268
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: the last decade or so has gone down super low

269
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: to the point where I think it was somewhere like

270
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: in the single digits at one point, but right before

271
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: this it was I think like seventeen dollars or so.

272
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: And there's this Reddit group called Wall Street Bets, and

273
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: what Wall Street Bets is is basically them saying, like

274
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: them picking stock to sort of like an informal Reddit

275
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: group full of stock memes, but they kind of encourage

276
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: each other to do things. And what they sort of

277
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: realized was because game Stop stock is so bad that

278
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: a lot of hedge funds were shorting it. And shorting

279
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: it is where I'm bad at explaining things. Basically, it's

280
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: what happens kind of in trading places explanation. They put

281
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: a bet that it will go down, that it will

282
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: lose money. It's basically putting your money on them. You're saying, basically,

283
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: I will buy it for full price because it will

284
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: whatever um. And then the so what they did was

285
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: the Reddit threat. They decided, let's all buy it, so

286
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: kind of like a legal pump and dump scam, sort

287
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: of like back in the day when people try to

288
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: pump penny stocks up by like everyone buy the penny

289
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: stocks and then they dumped them immediately. Um that's what

290
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: they did. They pumped up game Stop stock, and because

291
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: they were all buying it, everyone starts buying it. And

292
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: as is the case with the stock market, because nothing

293
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: makes sense, the more people who bought it, the more

294
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: people were willing to spend on it, to the point

295
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: where it's now worth like three hundred dollars um. What

296
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: that did was it basically bankrupted a bunch of head

297
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: fund hedge funds that were like, did not expect to

298
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: have to owe three hundred dollars per stock Stop Stop

299
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: that they bought for seventeen dollars or bought even cheaper

300
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: or whatever. So, yeah, they owe a lot of money. Yeah,

301
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: it's the head funds do. Which now the conversation, uh,

302
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 1: that you're seeing is like the Biden administration is thinking

303
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: about like bail or at least considering the question of

304
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 1: whether they should bail out some of these head funds.

305
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: Which so the thing that is exciting to me about

306
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: this is not I don't think it's a good a

307
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: good time to now invest in game Stop because it

308
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: seems like that's that's how some people are taking it,

309
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: and uh, it seems like the jig is up a

310
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 1: little bit, like the people. Yeah, like once it becomes

311
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: a national news story, that's when it's probably not a

312
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: good idea to to put your money on it. But

313
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: just the idea that a stock valuation can be completely

314
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: independent from reality is something that I think we It's

315
00:17:55,960 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: almost like it works as a as satire of like

316
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 1: what has happened in the stock market for the past year, uh,

317
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: with with the pandemic and businesses like downsize and going

318
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: out of business, firing people. Uh, you know, it being

319
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: for the average American one of the worst economic times

320
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 1: ever and then the stock market being at its peak

321
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: like peeking and not you know, taking any of the

322
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: damage on and so like the idea that they were like,

323
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: let's just do that, but to one stock and funck

324
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 1: over some of the people who have been benefiting off

325
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: of that, like in a very vague way where I

326
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 1: don't understand any of the dynamics. Uh, superproducer on a

327
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,640
Speaker 1: Hosnie understands the stock market and has kind of tried

328
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 1: to explain it to me, and I, uh my brain

329
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: resists it. It's like I'm allergic to uh understanding it.

330
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: But it's Uh, they're they're just in a turn in

331
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 1: a broad narrative sense. The idea that they are satirizing

332
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 1: the stock market, well putting a bunch of billionaires uh

333
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: in financial trouble is is interesting to me. Yeah. The

334
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: secondary thing is watching like the fomo play out though,

335
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: because that's where it gets dicey, you know, like like

336
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 1: I was saying before we went on Mike, Like, there

337
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,479
Speaker 1: are also in all the numerous interviews that came out

338
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: of the story, like there were people who saw what

339
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: happened Monday when it was like when it was already

340
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: taking off and got in or like I put in

341
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: all my savings and I put four thousand dollars into it,

342
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: and then they realized where they were at and they're like,

343
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:41,719
Speaker 1: oh ship, they had to sell it off and they

344
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: ended up losing like six hundred bucks. But they're saying like,

345
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: if I hadn't actually realized that, I would have lost

346
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: all of my money trying to just play this like

347
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 1: like not knowing enough about the stock market and just

348
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 1: seeing what I saw on Reddit and reacting to that.

349
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: So it's definitely it's interesting to see who who can

350
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: benefit from it, who gets sort of like sucked into

351
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: the momentum of like wanting to play the game without

352
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 1: knowing and then yeah to Anna, Josane was trying to

353
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: explain to me this morning, like what it made me

354
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: think of. So in Shawshank Redemption, when Andy Dufrain like

355
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: locks himself in the office and plays the music even

356
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: though he knows he's going to get his ass kicked

357
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 1: by the warden, it's kind of like that is like

358
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 1: how I think of what they're doing is they're like

359
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: fun these people, and we know it's going to blow

360
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: up in our face. But there's a lot of people

361
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: who are now getting in and who are going to

362
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: lose their their money. So it's almost like if everybody

363
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 1: who heard the music also got the ship kicked out

364
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: of them, which makes us scene not quite as cool.

365
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: It's like not great if he's risking everybody else's safety, right, No, exactly,

366
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: And also like you know, there's people on that Reddit

367
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 1: threat who were in early enough where they made a

368
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: crazy amount of money and they're probably like I would

369
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: get out right now as the fools are coming in.

370
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: It's which really it is. There's like I'm not as

371
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: worried about those redditors as I am worried about like

372
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: our parents and grandparents who are like, oh, I remember games,

373
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: all right, I'll put I'll put eight thousand dollars and

374
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like that's what worries me. Yeah,

375
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: I mean Wall Street is inherently predatory, and there's always there,

376
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 1: always has to be somebody who's a loser, right, who's

377
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: going to lose out? And you can almost guarantee that

378
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: it's not going to be the hedge fund billionaires in

379
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 1: the end, like it maybe in the short run, or

380
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: they cynically start like co opting this reddit to start

381
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: manipulating the markets through like redditors, you know what I mean,

382
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: and really be like no, but this is how we

383
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: gonna make move. This is the new game. I mean really,

384
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: that's that's possible too, is people just go, Okay, this

385
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 1: is what I gotta do. I create a person online

386
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 1: and try to put my own stocks. Yeah, I mean,

387
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: like it is sort of the I think the people

388
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: in that subreddit would hope, like, well they couldn't learn

389
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: to like authentically, Like it's the sort of authenticity thing

390
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: where that's the thing you can't fake that corporations are

391
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: constantly trying to fake, like trying to find a way

392
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: to sponsor people who speak authentically and who communicate meaning

393
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: to people authentically. But yeah, I think the overall reason

394
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: people are super excited about this is because it seems

395
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: like what like a a very real sort of dynamic

396
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: illustration of the haves and have nots, and like that

397
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 1: the breakdown in what the stock market is supposed to do,

398
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: which is rep you know, represent value in some real

399
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: world way, and now it's currently like a game being

400
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: played by mostly very wealthy people and they're able to

401
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: fix the rules to insulate themselves from, uh, you know,

402
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: any sort of representation the value. I just wanna read

403
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: what on a road like explaining what shorting is, uh,

404
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 1: And so she said, shorting is when you borrow shares

405
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: and then you sell immediately, in which then you can

406
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: grab them later for a lower price, give them back

407
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: to who you borrowed them from originally, and then you

408
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: pocket the difference. Like that couldn't be further from making

409
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: sense to me. So dumb when it comes to this

410
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: market Watch story is not helping when I Google is

411
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: sharing sharing, and that's why I'm like, fuck it, I'm

412
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna just deal with meme stocks. Now for

413
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: the lolls. I I. Yeah, I've had shorting explained to

414
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 1: me so many times, including in movie form by Adam McKay,

415
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: and I it's almost like looking at a photograph in

416
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: West World where I'm just like, this doesn't look like

417
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: anything to me, Like I don't understand, Like my brain

418
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: just goes like, no, this isn't a thing, right. Yeah. Yeah,

419
00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: it's interesting because this uh Bloomberg article is like the

420
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: way they make sense of this story is all about like, uh,

421
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: them having these big breaks where it's revealed that uh,

422
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: some influential investor was actually long on game stop and

423
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: that's like where these surgeons are coming from, instead of

424
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: like they really under under rate the idea that it's

425
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: just like kind of being done. Uh like every established

426
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 1: power group. It's like that it could be even in politics,

427
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: like was it activists. I don't know, ye, actually I

428
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: think it was actually because Joe Biden was so appealing.

429
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: You forget about that, So let's let's ignore that. Maybe

430
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: there are other things that could threaten the power structure,

431
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: right um, but yeah, I mean if they do bailout

432
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: hedge funds, like I think, then the story becomes more

433
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: significant because then it becomes even greater affront to the

434
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: or just like a greater illustration of the disconnect there. Yea,

435
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 1: and the fact that they are I I forget who

436
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: wrote it on Twitter, but somebody was like, so they've

437
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: owed us two thousand dollars and I haven't been able

438
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: to get that out, but you know they're gonna managed

439
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: to bail these hedge funds out the next week. It's

440
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: just frustrating. Yeah. So you guys a like a louder

441
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: voice in these people's ears, you know what I mean? Yeah,

442
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 1: that that's what you're competing against. And when you have

443
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: a ton of people, like when politicians are surrounded by

444
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 1: these people, they think that's what the world is. Like

445
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: this saying I made up money talks. But let's talk

446
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: acquittal because or you know, impeachment. Um, it's looking like

447
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: acquittal too. Fascist boogaloo. Yeah, we talked on a couple

448
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: of days ago on trending, uh that senators voted for

449
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 1: emotion that was basically saying Trump's second impeachment it wasn't

450
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: constitutional because uh, you know, he's out office, he's a

451
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: private citizen. Leave him alone, you guys, hasn't he been

452
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: through enough. What hasn't he been through enough bodies? What

453
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: are you talking about? So yeah, because of that we

454
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: talked about, that means twelve Republicans are gonna have to

455
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: emerge from the depths of hades to try and reclaim

456
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: their humanity in order to actually convict the president or

457
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 1: ex president in a Senate trial. Um. I don't know

458
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: if that that's gonna work, because it seems like the

459
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: party is getting behind Trump again based on a lot

460
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: of the like recent polling. And you know, John Thune,

461
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 1: he's a Republican senator. He said, you know, just because

462
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: we voted on the constitutionality of the impeachment, isn't gonna

463
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: necessarily bind us to a vote to convict. And I'm like, sure, Jan,

464
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: that's that's nice to say out loud, to try and

465
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: pretend you're not just some craven asshole, but that's what

466
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: it is. And yes, So now in the impeachment managers

467
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,360
Speaker 1: in Trump's defense, they have until February eight to get

468
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 1: their arguments and everything in order. But like, you know,

469
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: I think the one thing people the positive outlook on

470
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 1: this possibility of Republicans coming around is like, well, maybe

471
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 1: if the evidence is so fucked up and putrid and irrefutable,

472
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: they will these power hungry boot throaters will actually figure

473
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: out that this isn't the way to go. But I

474
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: don't know, I mean, I don't know. I don't think so,

475
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: I don't think that. I mean some of the Republicans

476
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: even said things like, you know, like we're not saying

477
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: we're not seeing anything from witnesses, and it's like, you

478
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: guys were there. You weren't there, You were right there.

479
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: Like what are you talking about? You saw that, you

480
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:53,479
Speaker 1: heard it. What do you mean there's no witnesses you experience. Actually,

481
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 1: maybe you shouldn't even be participating if that's you need

482
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: more information on the fact that your lie, your safety

483
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 1: was threatened by insurrection. Okay, okay, um, can't we just

484
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 1: let it go? Man? My god, move on. This is

485
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: not good for the country. But what's fucked up is

486
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: that fucking strategy is gonna work. They're gonna can we

487
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: just move on their way through and at this fucking

488
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: coup attempt and we have, like most people have been screaming,

489
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,919
Speaker 1: check the receipts of history. This doesn't this doesn't end

490
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: with them coming back in ten years being like we

491
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: were so wrong. My gosh, we're actually, you know what

492
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. We we're volunteering ourselves to go to

493
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: jail for that because that was so much like that

494
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: ain't happening. They're coming. They're gonna knuckle up and go

495
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: in the lab and get smarter and come back and

496
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: figure out a way to do it, you know, by

497
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: hacking the system of governance is how it works. But

498
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: there has been evidence right that there there was more coordination.

499
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: Has anything come of that? Have there been any additional

500
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: developments that of like who was involved on the inside,

501
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: and like beyond just Trump giving the speech, there's a

502
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: there's a couple Congress people, people in Congress whom especially

503
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: uh I forget her name, but one of the Q

504
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: and on one of the two Q and on ones. Yeah,

505
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: she's been accused of like giving people that were at

506
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: the protested tour of Congress beforehand. UM and also like

507
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: two of them have been like they have a history

508
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: of posting things like we want to kill Nancy. Like

509
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: one of them liked to post about killing Nancy Pelosi.

510
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 1: UM another has like they've both written online believing in

511
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: Q and all the violence against Democrats that would involve.

512
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: So there's kind of evidence that they helped, but it's

513
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: not like direct photographic evidence that they helped. Yeah, And

514
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,479
Speaker 1: I think because there's so many ongoing investigations that are

515
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: being kept so close that like, I don't know when

516
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: we're actually gonna understand the totality of everything. Like I

517
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: think one thing is seeing I think more Reese only

518
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: is about all of the video shows how Proud Boys

519
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: were very much fundamental in really getting people riled up

520
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: and being like the focal point of a lot of

521
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: like these points of contact and entry um and the

522
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: fact that they've been so chummy with Roger Stone and

523
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: the and the Republican you know establishment that you know,

524
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: you can there's inferences that can be made, but I

525
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: don't know. That's why I'm like curious what happens February,

526
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: what we learned, more, what they present, because if if

527
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: they're only going to be like, hey, uh, as I

528
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: present this case, the prosecution says, y'all were there right?

529
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: All right? The prosecution rests. If we do that, it's

530
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: fucking not not good. And I hope that you're gonna

531
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: come harder than that, because these people are are you know,

532
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: so willing to just shut their brain off and be like,

533
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: I don't know what, I don't know what the hell

534
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: I'm sorry January Secks, is that a date? I don't

535
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: know anything to me? Alright, let's talk about how Fox

536
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: is dealing with the new reality other than you know,

537
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: falling in the ratings a little bit, uh thinking about

538
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: I think replacing their CEO is one of the rumors

539
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: going around. Um, but you know, they they do still

540
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: have to fill twenty four hours of news every day

541
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: and they have a pretty clear strategy. Mile as you

542
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: were saying, it just seems, you know, it's like we

543
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 1: all everyone knew this growing into Biden being inaugurated. It's like,

544
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: watch this second, the clock changes and Biden's president, that

545
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 1: COVID was suddenly going to be a thing that a

546
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: president is responsible for and how dare he let fifteen

547
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,479
Speaker 1: thousand people die and is for whatever stat they were

548
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: throwing out there like like clockwork, because it's it's it's

549
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: all horseshit, And they started, you know, taling these daily

550
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: deaths is like part of like you know, they're sort

551
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: of graphic package every day, and you know, by pivoting

552
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: and making that a thing to like rally the no

553
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: brain supporter around. They can really create this like disingenuous

554
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: narrative they can take into mid terms, which is pandemic

555
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: is so out of control, Joe Biden, what the fuck? UM?

556
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: While actively having like a huge hand in exacerbating like

557
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: the behaviors of people that is making this pandemic really

558
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: hard to contain. UM. On top of obviously the lack

559
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: of financial support for people. I mean, that will always

560
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: be an unseid thing that is known UM. But more

561
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: specifically with Fox's hand they're really like they're They're really

562
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: good at riling these people up. So that's why this

563
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: handity clip from UM Tuesday night really stuck out, because

564
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: he's openly questioning the vaccine to his millions of viewers,

565
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 1: when before when when Trump was president, they're like, thank god,

566
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: the vaccine is coming. If you remember, this is very clear,

567
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 1: and I think Fiser announced that they had it just

568
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: to screw the president over Bubba. So the vaccine was

569
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: good then, but cut two now when Joe Biden is president,

570
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: and then this is you get all right, I don't

571
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: know when my number gets called. I'm actually beginning to

572
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: have doubts. I've been telling my friends I'm gonna get

573
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: the vaccine that you know, half of them agree and

574
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: the other half think I'm absolutely nuts. They wouldn't take

575
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: it in a million years. I don't know who to

576
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 1: listen to. I don't know. Why do you get all weird,

577
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: drunk folksy stuff. I couldn't stop. I couldn't help myself

578
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: but make the like, like the face he was making,

579
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: it's just like real, like I'll let me level with

580
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: your folks. I don't, I don't. I don't believe him,

581
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: but I do want to imagine it would be like

582
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: vaccine that's nuts, Like right, friends, a full half of

583
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: his friend it's like, yeah, his like life is like

584
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: a Benny Hill fucking sketch. Vaccine No, and then the

585
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: like scientists like you better take it, Shan, it's fucking chaotic.

586
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, this is what he's saying to because you know,

587
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: this is what happens. They say stuff like this, and

588
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: then it's gonna end up in the weird chain emails.

589
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: Your aunt sends you being like, well, you know, I'm

590
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 1: at the vaccine though, you know, because Hannity is openly

591
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: questioning it, and it seems like that's in a really

592
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: effective tactic, you know, just to keep to prolong the

593
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: pain of the pandemic because it's going to affect the economy,

594
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 1: which you're like, well they bludge and Trump because he

595
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: doesn't know how to do anything that they're all. It's

596
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 1: just becomes so cynical even I mean, it's always been

597
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: down this path. But when you have a vaccine that

598
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: even godhead Robert Rupert Murdoch took that you're still gonna

599
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 1: do it, it's like, come the funk on, like, just

600
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: just relaxed, what is this? But that's what they want

601
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: to do. Well he took it, and look his ratings

602
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: went down. Man, I'm just saying, yeah, you act like

603
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: those things are unconnected. I do wonder because they spent

604
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: so much time be acting like the pandemic was overrated

605
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: to the point that uh, people, you know, we're will

606
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: to put their life lives on the line and uh,

607
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: you know protest and grocery stores and catch COVID and

608
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 1: die and you know, with their dying breaths tweet Trump.

609
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: I do wonder like that has to be at least

610
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: partially responsible for the drop in their their viewership right there,

611
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 1: Like no longer presenting a coherent like version of the world.

612
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 1: I feel like even like before, at least they were

613
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: presenting one that all held together but was you know

614
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: obviously uh, completely corrupt and self serving. Uh. But now

615
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,879
Speaker 1: it's like they their facts are kind of all over

616
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 1: the place and it's not it's not clear like what

617
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: how these things can both be true? Right? And I

618
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: also think that a lot of that, like you know,

619
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,959
Speaker 1: the things like the like yeah exactly, things like also

620
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: the you know, calling Arizona during the election, like there

621
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: were I think that one Fox News is so happy

622
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,240
Speaker 1: Bidens in office because it's just someone to push against.

623
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 1: But they start I feel like they also started to

624
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 1: lose ratings because they just wouldn't go full as crazy

625
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: the way oh A n would or like right, like

626
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: they would be like, okay, we can't say that we

627
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 1: need to uh murder all the Democrats, and people are

628
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: like all right, we're done with the liberals. But I

629
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: think Biden's back now they could be like, you know,

630
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: everything's communism, everything socialism because they don't have to condemn

631
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: Trump anymore. So people I think will come back, right Yeah,

632
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, it's it's you know, it's a hard

633
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: energy to keep up the bloodthirst, you know what I mean,

634
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 1: after a while, you if you were really on Like,

635
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: there are people who clearly have an agenda, and those

636
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: are the people who need to be looked out of

637
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 1: We're watched out for um. But there are also people who,

638
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 1: like you can tell just were they were ride in

639
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,399
Speaker 1: this wave, and some people like you know, because I'm

640
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: already seeing even on like my my reports from Facebook

641
00:36:58,440 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 1: that I get from other people, they're like, you know,

642
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: there's there's some like kind of like not talking as

643
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 1: loud anymore. And I think like a lot of people

644
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: trying to feel like do I want to be like

645
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: so angry that I want to kill people everyday energy?

646
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: Or do I want to Because just as much as

647
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: like liberals want to get back to brunch, I'm sure

648
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 1: they're conservatives who else just want to get back to

649
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,840
Speaker 1: their daily consumption culture with a tinge of de facto

650
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: white supremacy. Um. But yeah, like it's it's I'm curious

651
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 1: to see how those numbers end up, because yeah, Jack,

652
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: to your point, like before Fox at least had like

653
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: Linda Lafi and levels of world building that you could

654
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: operate within. And you're like, yes, this. Of course, what

655
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: you're saying is different. I already know this from season three,

656
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: Like that's true. But now we're like in the later

657
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: seasons of Lost, where it's like the oh yeah, I

658
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: don't know how that how that works out in the

659
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,399
Speaker 1: long run. But the Polar Bears, yeah, they were dead

660
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:58,240
Speaker 1: the whole time. It was bullshit the whole time. Always

661
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,320
Speaker 1: was nothing matters, nothing matters. I mean that's how we

662
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: felt for a long time too. Anybody who wasn't, oh

663
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 1: so nothing matters. It's all just yeah, alright, let's take

664
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: another quick break and we'll come back and talk about

665
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 1: James Bond maybe and we're back, uh and yeah, let's

666
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 1: talk about this James Bond movie because our writer J

667
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 1: M McNabb is speculating that maybe it's just that this

668
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: movie is so profoundly cursed and we're all just suffering

669
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: the consequences of of how bad make curse this movie is,

670
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: like the pandemic was created as a result of whatever

671
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 1: curse was put on this movie. Um, so he just

672
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 1: gave he gave us a rundown of sort of where

673
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: where we started and where we're at now, because they

674
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: just announced that they're pushing it back yet again to

675
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: the point that now they have to uh probably do

676
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: reshoots because the technology is now out of date from

677
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,280
Speaker 1: when they first shot the movie. Um, wasn't it supposed

678
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 1: to come out before the pandemic? It was it was

679
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 1: supposed to come out in November, So we're supposed to

680
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: come out then. Yeah, the product place was fucked. Yeah

681
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: it's now looking at October eight. So it's interesting because

682
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 1: it started with this piece of consumer culture that I

683
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 1: don't understand, but it's becoming more prevalent where people who

684
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: are fans of a thing really like are are most like.

685
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,479
Speaker 1: It used to be that you didn't want the band

686
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: you liked to succeed because then all the fake gas

687
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 1: fans would come along. You'd be like, I don't like

688
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: him anymore. But now it's like you will like the

689
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 1: The two heads of the two biggest James Bond fan

690
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,720
Speaker 1: sites on the Internet, we're imploring the studio to delay

691
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: the release, uh from April until the summer of because

692
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 1: they didn't want it to fail due to the pandemic.

693
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: They were like making business decisions to try and like

694
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: expand the audience because the summer we're gonna be out

695
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: of the Woods the movies. Yeah, um, but it's almost

696
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: impressive how like fucked the movie was from the beginning.

697
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: So it's originally scheduled, like I said, to come out November,

698
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: delayed after the original director, Danny Boyle quit due to

699
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:56,240
Speaker 1: creative differences. Apparently his script ideas were, according to sources,

700
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,080
Speaker 1: quote crazy and quote mad cap, and rumor had it

701
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: he wanted to kill off James Bond. Yeah, which I

702
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 1: actually really like that idea because this being Daniel Craig's

703
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 1: last movie, like officially you can, like, I like the

704
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 1: fan theory that James Bond is actually a code name.

705
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 1: That's why the actor keeps changing is because there they

706
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: are all different people inhabiting this role that was created

707
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 1: for m I six called James Bond. Uh, But that

708
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,280
Speaker 1: doesn't really fit within the U universe of the movie.

709
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: What is it, Danny Boyle James Bond dying scene? Look

710
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,800
Speaker 1: like is he like oding on Heroin or something like

711
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm curious, like how dark? Because you know, like because

712
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: in the first one, what was the first Double seven

713
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: with Daniel Craig Casino Royal, Yeah, right, and that one

714
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,320
Speaker 1: was like, oh ship, like he's kind of you know

715
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 1: what I mean and like that. I feel like that

716
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 1: helped everybody be like, Yo, this new James Bond actually

717
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: takes a series like what if a guy killed a

718
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,959
Speaker 1: bunch of people and all these women killed and drank

719
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: a ton and kind of we didn't have a lot

720
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: of therapy. Uh, this is where you end up. So yeah,

721
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 1: that would have been I would have been interested in

722
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:17,439
Speaker 1: seeing that. Um. So their next choice was awesome True

723
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:21,879
Speaker 1: Detectives Carrie Fukanaga. But then Daniel Craig injured himself during

724
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 1: filming had to get ankle surgery. A controlled explosion on

725
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,320
Speaker 1: set this is a separate incident wasn't so controlled and

726
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 1: ended up injuring a crew member and damaging the sound stage. Uh.

727
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: And then there were rumors that there was a mutiny

728
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: on the set because Fukunaga was constantly missing work in

729
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:44,439
Speaker 1: order to play his PlayStation, which he denied. He said

730
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: his quote was, as for my PS four relationship, if

731
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 1: my Red Dead redemption to progresses any indication, it's been

732
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 1: stunted at six for months, and if anyone spoils the

733
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,360
Speaker 1: end for me before I wrap by, I'm going to

734
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 1: be pissed. So Uh, that doesn't that sounds like it

735
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 1: sounds like you were playing Red Dead Redemption the progress

736
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: argument really, I mean, can you do you have screen

737
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 1: caps of your progress before? Because it could just be

738
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 1: that you're stalling out trying to achieve something and you're

739
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: at whatever. I mean, we don't need gamer forensics to enter,

740
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: but I like them that, like it went that like

741
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 1: your director at James Bond movie. But you're like, no, man,

742
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,400
Speaker 1: I just got a new hat, Like I think, I

743
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: think to keep going around for a little bit. You're like,

744
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 1: the online mode just came out, and I think would

745
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: be a moonshiner. You can make more money. It's not

746
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: as fun, but you definitely get more money to buy

747
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: stuff for your character. Look at my guy, he's so

748
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: fucked up looking. Huh. Also, that seems so long ago.

749
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 1: That's another testament how long this movie he's been in

750
00:43:52,520 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: production Redemption too, Like, oh fuck years ago. Uh. Grays

751
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: Jones was brought in for a cameo quit on the

752
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 1: spot because she didn't like the size of her role. Uh.

753
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,800
Speaker 1: And then after all of that, the pandemic hit couldn't

754
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: be released. Apple and Netflix offered to buy the movie,

755
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 1: but MGM wanted six hundred million dollars and so they

756
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 1: didn't do that, but a big So the reshoots is

757
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: actually kind of a big deal because the movie is

758
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 1: like all James Bond movies or at least partially uh

759
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 1: funded by product placement. Heineken supposedly paid forty five million

760
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: dollars to have Daniel Craig sipped their beer at that

761
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 1: and that one of the Daniel Craig James Bonds I

762
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: don't even remember. But so there's like Nokia devices that

763
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:55,439
Speaker 1: he's using, which are already outdated, and uh, we'll look

764
00:44:55,640 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 1: very old by the time the movie comes out, so

765
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to reshoot or use Uh. They've actually

766
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 1: like digitally altered a shot from the trailer to update

767
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 1: the Nokia equipment. So maybe they can just do that

768
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: for the whole movie. But I'm sure, like what for cars,

769
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 1: and you're not gonna be able to like completely update

770
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 1: the car toil like this year's model. I love it.

771
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 1: I love that ship, you know what I mean, Like

772
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: just that second, those those secondary deliverable as you have

773
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: as a production You're like, dude, oh fuckal fuck, what

774
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 1: does the new one look like? It's completely fucking different.

775
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's not we might as well just

776
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 1: eat the fucking lawsuit because it's gonna cost more to

777
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: try and reshoot with the fucking phone. It's this sounds

778
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 1: this so funny, Like whoever's figuring that out in real time?

779
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 1: I just feel so awful for But also they're probably

780
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,799
Speaker 1: being paid exorbitant sums of money, so do you they're

781
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 1: they're probably being paying, but the special effects person that

782
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: they're putting it only not being paid. There. It's like

783
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 1: the same guy who had to replace Superman's mustache and

784
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:08,720
Speaker 1: Justice League again, like the studios like doxing that VFX

785
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,920
Speaker 1: artist because it's like, I don't know, man, you should

786
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 1: check out this guy his email, Like, I don't know,

787
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,320
Speaker 1: you should ask him what the hell was going on

788
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 1: with that? Huh? That's man? Oh well, I I hope

789
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: it comes out and it's incident free, but oh well,

790
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: have we still have? Have they even figured out who

791
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: the next James Bond was? Or was that always just

792
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 1: going to be a controversial thing because they mentioned someone

793
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: that was not a white cis gendered man. I think

794
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 1: the second I think that there was like a lot

795
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 1: of talk about it. I think because Daniel Craig, it

796
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,279
Speaker 1: sounded for a bit like he might have not even

797
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 1: done this one, Like wasn't there like a big talk

798
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: about that? So I think that he came back and

799
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,479
Speaker 1: then they're like, well, we'll address that later when people

800
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 1: forget Yeah, right, he would sounded like as nihilistic as

801
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,439
Speaker 1: any movie star has ever sounded about. Like a role.

802
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: It was like, I hate this role. James Bond used

803
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 1: to die and then like immediately did a one A D.

804
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,919
Speaker 1: It was very very funny to see that no Kia

805
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 1: check landed on his doorstep. Yeah. The the mustache thing

806
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: that you just reference is that that's a real story, right,

807
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: That's a real story that really happened. You can see

808
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: that on YouTube. The basically they he wouldn't shave his

809
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: mustache for I think when he was doing Mission Possible, right,

810
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: the most important part of that character was the mustache,

811
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 1: and they need to do a reshoot. He wouldn't shave it,

812
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: and so Warner had to pay someone to like digitally

813
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: erase a mustache in the shot. Because he's Superman is Superman,

814
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: he usually doesn't have like a Freddie Mercury mustache. Um. So,

815
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 1: but the thing is it almost looks it looks almost

816
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,480
Speaker 1: like they just took clay and just wrapped it over

817
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: his lip, so it still has like the contours of

818
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,280
Speaker 1: a mustache a little bit. It just looks flesh covered

819
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:58,399
Speaker 1: and like the mouth moving looks it looks. It looks

820
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: like if you and I down did Maya and did

821
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: like a two hour training video on it and then

822
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,799
Speaker 1: replaced footage of Superman just got a ken doll mouth

823
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Yeah, just let him rock the mustache.

824
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:13,160
Speaker 1: We're like, hey, I forgot to shave. Man. If you

825
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,080
Speaker 1: knew how fast this thing grows, like, you'd have a

826
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 1: whole movie and me just shaving. Okay, let's move on.

827
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:22,360
Speaker 1: Yeah uh I I was going to say that that

828
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,399
Speaker 1: would hurt his ability to disguise himself as Clark Kent,

829
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: but it's not like any other part of his face

830
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 1: is covered up. His eyes. Yeah, Um, has anyone done

831
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 1: know like a funny mockumentary about like Clark Kent's co

832
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: workers putting together that he was Superman. Just that guy

833
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:45,840
Speaker 1: is Superman, not kidd Superman that I don't know. It

834
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,280
Speaker 1: looks at side by side photo it's him, you fucking idiot,

835
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 1: But he has that guy has a cool curl right,

836
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,279
Speaker 1: they do some Superman's change the side that his hair

837
00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 1: has parted on because like having it parted, sweeping from

838
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,839
Speaker 1: left to right is alpha, so that's what Superman has.

839
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 1: But Clark Kent has it parted the other way, as

840
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 1: if he combs his hair with his left hand, which

841
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:15,919
Speaker 1: is some beta ship obviously. But I just I love

842
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 1: the the lore about fucking Clark Kent, but I love

843
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 1: the idea that Superman, like most of the time, is

844
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 1: spent not like taking the thing off, but like fixing

845
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,879
Speaker 1: his hair as people are like about to die. He's

846
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,919
Speaker 1: like in the mirror, like ship. Don't look like a cock,

847
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: you idiot. Wait a minute to a man's half potted

848
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 1: on the wrong side, the real Superman. It's super cock.

849
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 1: Get him alright, let's talk. Let's talk Ellen. Ellen has

850
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 1: one year left on our contract for a show. About

851
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 1: six months from now, negotiations will begin to discuss the

852
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: future of the show. But it seems like she may

853
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: have had enough bullying uh from other people to on

854
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:12,960
Speaker 1: her for now. In this page six article, which if

855
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: these tawboys they've been they've been taking us for a

856
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,800
Speaker 1: ride the last couple of weeks, especially that heartbreaking revelation

857
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,760
Speaker 1: that Jane Korkowski was not in fact with Michael Lindel,

858
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,320
Speaker 1: but I'm a Mike Lindel Korkowski truther, so that that

859
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 1: love story will go on in my heart. Um but yeah,

860
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 1: the whole thing with this is, you know, she owns

861
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 1: the rights to the show, so she's basically in fully

862
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: in control of what happens, you know, like she doesn't

863
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: have to like they can't be like, well, we're renewing

864
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 1: it and it's our show, so you gotta do it,

865
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 1: or Funk's like now, I don't have to do that.

866
00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 1: And the reports and page six seemed to be about

867
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 1: it's all the exposure and fucking accountability around her mistreatment

868
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 1: of people that is wearing her down and she just

869
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: wants to go to Elysium with all the other bazillionaires

870
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 1: in this guy and just not be bothered by it anymore.

871
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: Um So yeah, that's where she's at. And then like

872
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 1: in the article, like well who will take the thrown

873
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: Apparently Kelly Clarkson has been eating into her ratings since

874
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 1: the summer, not like in a huge way, but that

875
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 1: I guess when you're measuring where the audiences are shifting

876
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 1: Kelly Clarkson maybe the new Ellen. I guess maybe. I mean,

877
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, Kelly's a star. I've heard Kelly Clarkson

878
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 1: of her. Drew Barrymore. Part of me also, like my

879
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory head thinks that maybe like Kelly Clarkson or

880
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:27,840
Speaker 1: Drew Barrymore's people are the one that see that article

881
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: of Ellen thinking of leaving. Yeah, who seated all the

882
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: all the things. Ellen's actually really sweet to everybody behind

883
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:44,480
Speaker 1: the scenes, and uh no one believes me. Um Drew

884
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 1: Barrymore man fucking master technic technician. I'm saying, though we've

885
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 1: we've we've been fooled for decades and then the knife

886
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 1: comes out. For those first couple of episodes were a

887
00:51:54,840 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: little rocky though. Yeah they were one up for all

888
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 1: the wrong reasons. Psychotic show, Yeah, just weird. It was like,

889
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 1: does anybody making this show know what a talk show is? Or? Okay? Cool?

890
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: But I kind of liked it about it because it

891
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 1: felt like it almost felt like someone like as much

892
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: as the cliche is like we just made a show

893
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 1: in our basement, but with a budget, that's what it

894
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 1: feels like. A show like like I have one friend

895
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 1: who does food segments on it, and they're like they

896
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 1: just went like, hey, do you want to come on

897
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: and test snacks? And he was like sure. So like

898
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,319
Speaker 1: like it feels like it's a podcast with a ton

899
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:36,200
Speaker 1: of TV money. Yeah, God, one of these networks do

900
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 1: that over here. We can use snack tests. We're already

901
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: doing passive product placement anyway, because we're so consumer brained

902
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 1: from being American. Your product placement for weed, Yeah, exactly that,

903
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 1: and then like just talking ad nauseum about yeah, we're

904
00:52:55,280 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 1: chills for sure. Yeah, I can be ill prepared with

905
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 1: the best of them. You heard my take on the

906
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:05,439
Speaker 1: stock market up top right, and that's what the Drew

907
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,239
Speaker 1: Barrymore segment felt like. But it is a thing. I

908
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: would watch them though, to your point, Mike, because it's

909
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 1: it's so different. It's like just such aint. You're like, yeah,

910
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 1: I guess this. I'm like in my mind, I had

911
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: to come around and like, I guess this is what

912
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,479
Speaker 1: it would be if Drew Barrymore had a talk show,

913
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,719
Speaker 1: like more realistically than a host that happens to be

914
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: Drew Barrymore. Yes, yeah, it almost feels a little bit

915
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,000
Speaker 1: like between two ferns. But it's not a joke, like

916
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 1: it's like thing run seriously, like I mean, she's having

917
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,520
Speaker 1: fun with it. She's not dead serious, but like sense

918
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:40,520
Speaker 1: of like, oh this is weird and it's like authentically. Yeah.

919
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,360
Speaker 1: There there is this overall trend I've I've seen like

920
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 1: in a couple of places where celebrities who have come

921
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:55,560
Speaker 1: under criticism for being bad humans are are now like

922
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 1: really bitter. They like, no, they can't come out and

923
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 1: say it. But I was just noticing Bill Simmons on

924
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 1: his podcast on an ad on his show so I've

925
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:10,480
Speaker 1: heard it like a dozen times, talks about how Steph

926
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 1: Curry put up sixty two points in response to his

927
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: haters on social media, and he was like, hey, man,

928
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 1: I know how it feels. That's what social media is

929
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:22,440
Speaker 1: for people to criticize people more successful than them. Because

930
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 1: he caught shipped for hiring a bunch of like white

931
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:31,200
Speaker 1: dudes and uh for his like very white dude, fifty

932
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 1: year old economic and racial politics on a sports show.

933
00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 1: But he he takes it as like they're just haters

934
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: who don't like my success. Man. Oh yeah, where anybody

935
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 1: who starts just redefines accountability as haters. Yeah, yeah, that's

936
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,480
Speaker 1: that's when you that's when you crossed the rubicon into bullshit,

937
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:57,399
Speaker 1: like you've fully you're like, that's when you always notice like, oh,

938
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:00,320
Speaker 1: you're not You're no longer willing to even hold a

939
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,880
Speaker 1: place in your mind where someone could have an opinion

940
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 1: that like, Okay, that's that might be valid or that's

941
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 1: an interesting viewpoint on something versus the blanket. Oh, they're

942
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,560
Speaker 1: just haters, you know what I mean, They're just that's

943
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:13,920
Speaker 1: what they do. They're just haters. They hate that I'm

944
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 1: a white supremacist. That's what it is like. And finally,

945
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: let's talk Disney's Hall of Presidents at disney World, which

946
00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 1: is which is open? I guess so out well, they've

947
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:37,040
Speaker 1: escaped and it's bad news for Floridians. So I guess

948
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 1: it's closed right now as they're updating it with a

949
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 1: robo Biden. But I hadn't really followed, Like the Trump

950
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,560
Speaker 1: bot has already been a huge problem for Disney, and

951
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: the attraction now requires live human security guards because of

952
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 1: the heckling and derision that Trump gets. Um, and they

953
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 1: added large spikes near the stage to protract to protect

954
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 1: the animatronic Trump, which is very easy. Um wild like

955
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 1: I mean like anti tank hedgehogs on D Day, like

956
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 1: what I love the idea of the happiest place on Earth,

957
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 1: installing spikes. It's just like they let a tiny little

958
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:36,040
Speaker 1: bit of politics through and it's just like splodes. Just

959
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 1: have like George Washington give a little speech and then

960
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln waves and get out, like we don't need

961
00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:48,280
Speaker 1: the current president speaking. Yeah. They apparently Trump's robot wax

962
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 1: is poetically about America, which isn't just like a false

963
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,840
Speaker 1: representation of him as a president. Uh, it's not what

964
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,759
Speaker 1: he wanted to record for Disney. According to one of

965
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,319
Speaker 1: his aids, Trump tried to brag about his private real

966
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,880
Speaker 1: estate business and make inaccurate claims while recording the speech

967
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:07,719
Speaker 1: he sent to Disney, and they had to like edit

968
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:13,680
Speaker 1: around it. Um, honestly, the era of Trump comedy is over.

969
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: But that's so funny to me. Imagine a recording booth

970
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 1: and they're like this will take fifteen minutes there, just

971
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:24,600
Speaker 1: just say the line, and it taking eight hours bocking forth.

972
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 1: It's like that episode of The Crown where a Thatchers

973
00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,640
Speaker 1: like has to give a take on apartheid and they're like,

974
00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,439
Speaker 1: what about this way he's like, no, no, I gotta

975
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 1: talk about Trump steaks. Gotta talk about Trump steaks in

976
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,919
Speaker 1: this one. Sorry, it's no like you have fucking Abrahamily

977
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 1: can talk about the Civil War that you get the

978
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: fucking salesman Trump root fuck. They're not good with politics. Huh.

979
00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 1: Maybe Disneys just keep the fucking head out of this

980
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: ship forever. They're thinking of instead of doing that, they're

981
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 1: thinking of rebranding the attraction. Uh. And there were rumors

982
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: that they were going to completely over all it with

983
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:06,480
Speaker 1: input of Lin Manuel Miranda and weird Al, which would

984
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:12,720
Speaker 1: be yeah, I would take that, please too. Talented musicians

985
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 1: and a guy who famously doesn't say bad words like

986
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 1: that feels what much than fucking anything? Yeah? Fine, Disney

987
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: always gets the great musicians in the end. They might

988
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 1: be giants. They got them hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot

989
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:33,480
Speaker 1: diggity Dog. That's the That's one of my kid's favorite songs.

990
00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 1: It's the Disney Mickey Mouse like Clubhouse theme song by

991
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 1: they might be giants. Uh. I wonder what current musicians

992
00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 1: will will be Disney musicians in the future. Chance maybe?

993
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I guess see a chance the rapper doing

994
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,800
Speaker 1: kid rap. Oh yeah, I feel like I feel like

995
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:59,439
Speaker 1: you you have a family phase, you hate your and rap,

996
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 1: you have your like five years of like we're gonna

997
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 1: make kids movies and we're gonna make some fun at

998
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 1: music and then we're back to real exactly. Like if

999
00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:08,920
Speaker 1: if ice Cube can go from n W A T

1000
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:12,640

1004
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 1: it's look at the end of the day, it's about

1005
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,320
Speaker 1: to check. And if someone's willing to be like, hey,

1037
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: Minecraft Minecraft books are like fan fiction type thing. Like

1040
01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:20,760
Speaker 1: fiction and some are like official uh novelizations. So it's

1041
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 1: a mixture of the two. Got it. It's not like

1042
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,880
Speaker 1: how to be good at Minecraft. It's like this person
