1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of The

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 1: Trend DFL's Big Game coming up on Sunday. I'm Jack.

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:17,119
Speaker 1: That is super producer Becker Robbo Hi. Um, big Game

4
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: is indeed coming up. It's happening. It's it's a thing.

5
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: It's there. Who's playing? Couldn't tell you, Brianna? Oh come on?

6
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. So that that is something that I want

7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: to talk about as a matter of fact, because this

8
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: is something I've kind of been waiting for to happen.

9
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: We've been on the edge of my seat waiting for

10
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: this development to happen. As Pepsi has become i don't know,

11
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: less culturally relevant pop culturally relevant as the their gambit,

12
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: Pepsi's add gambit like marketing gambit that like they're a

13
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: lifestyle brand, seems to ring less and less true. Uh.

14
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: You know, in the eighties, I feel like they could

15
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: get away with it. It was they there was still

16
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 1: the memory of like choice of the new generation with

17
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: like people from the sixties. I guess, isn't that when

18
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: they were considered the hot new thing and the eighties

19
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: they were associated with like Madonna, Michael Jackson music. They

20
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: have been like such an icon in pop music for

21
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,479
Speaker 1: many years, and but such a strange like fit, like

22
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: for them to just feel like we're you know, we're

23
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: we're associated with popular music and dancing, US a behemoth

24
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: of global commerce and consumerism and brown sugar water um.

25
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: And so I remember thinking at some point during the

26
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: past couple of years when the Pepsi halftime show came through,

27
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: I was like, Man, Pepsi's really punching above their weight

28
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: at this point, with the half the like being it

29
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: being the Super Bowl halftime show brought to you by Pepsi. Like,

30
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: Pepsi felt like a little just out of place there,

31
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: I mean the whole sentence there right, Like the NFL Pepsi,

32
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: I just feel like it's a very Americana esque idealism

33
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: that is no longer the front face of American popular culture,

34
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: both the NFL M Pepsi. Yeah, And I don't I

35
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 1: don't know why what it is about Pepsi specifically, that

36
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: just felt like like because even if it was the

37
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: Coca Cola halftime show like that would seem normal to me,

38
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: But like Pepsi, I think it's because the the actual

39
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: product of Pepsi is not a thing you ever see anywhere,

40
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: like nobody drinks pepsi or pepsi by choice. Yeah, Like

41
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: a lot of the branding in the past would I

42
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 1: would say decade of Pepsi has really fall into the waistside.

43
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: Like Coca Cola has kept it very like tempered, and

44
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: they have a way more international market. Like Mexican Coca

45
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: Cola is like so famous, right, Like you go to

46
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: a taco truck and you're like, I want a Mexican coke,

47
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: like specifically, So I do think that Coca Cola has

48
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 1: had a better brand presence over the past decade, whereas

49
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: like Pepsi has made quite a few fumbles trying to

50
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: be this like lifestyle brand where brought the Kendle. Yeah,

51
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: they did the brand logo redo and it failed, and

52
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: they were like trying to modernize, and I think they

53
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 1: were trying to appeal to this like gen Z millennial

54
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: market that isn't drinking soda to be quite honest, Like

55
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: they they are health conscious, they are not soda drinkers

56
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: the way that older generations were. So right, yeah, yeah,

57
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: So which is all to say, like I don't I

58
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: don't care. I don't think like now that it's no

59
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: longer Pepsi. It's going to be the Apple halftime show.

60
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's no better, Like that's it just feels

61
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: more appropriate and like the like the market has found.

62
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: So it's officially next year going to be the Apple

63
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: I believe it's this year the halftime show. R I

64
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: P Pepsi. Yeah, this year it's the Apple halftime Show.

65
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: Like I really, I feel like this should have been

66
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: a bigger story. It was just like buried in this day.

67
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: I was at googled because I wanted to make the point,

68
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: like why is Pepsi still doing this? Like I had

69
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 1: that thought I forget what we were watching, But like

70
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: something came through where once again they were like trying

71
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: to pretend to be you know, they're like, well, if

72
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: you like popular music from the past forty years, you're

73
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: you're basically liking Pepsi. We're kind of all part of

74
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: the same. Pepsi is synonymous with cool and it's like

75
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: that pop girlies. Okay, we will never forget the iconic

76
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: Pepsicole ad with Beyonce, Brittney Spears and Enrique Lysias. That ad,

77
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: it's in history top ten ads of all time. But

78
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 1: like ever since they like took that shift, probably like

79
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: a decade ago, away from pop stars and into lifestyle.

80
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 1: People don't go fuck like, they're like, like and it

81
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense for them to be the halftime show

82
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: for sure, because they're like not a representation of pop

83
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 1: music anymore. I get Apple music being but I'm also

84
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: like not another tech. I mean it would be Apple

85
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: is Spotify. I guess yeah, I can't think of like

86
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: the brand that would work for me like that that

87
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: I would be like, this is cool now, this is

88
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: who I want to see, other than maybe if they

89
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: wanted to have the daily like I sponsor. It feel

90
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: like the Dorrito's halftime show makes sense to me. I

91
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: don't know. Doritos does make sense because it's about like,

92
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: it's a good reminder that this is all bullshit junk

93
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: food concocted in a lab to be undeniable. But anyways,

94
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,239
Speaker 1: so that's something that change. We're gonna talk on tomorrow's

95
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: episode about the number of crypto ads from last year

96
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: to this year. Also, Dorito's is apparently by Pepsi according

97
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: to ian Um. Yeah, so Pepsi is a massive bohemia

98
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: like they It's just funny to me that they kept

99
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: the branding as like the Pepsi halftime show, and there

100
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: it seemed like there was always like some cola based

101
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: like visual like Dr dre playing the piano and like

102
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 1: the yeah yeah. It's like, I don't know, man, this

103
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: just doesn't feel Pepsi doesn't feel up to the task

104
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: as a as a product in particular. So there's just

105
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a bunch of tech, big tech branding all

106
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: over the place. Big tech has had a hard year.

107
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: Apple the only big tech company that hasn't had layoff

108
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: so far. But another big tech thing that was supposed

109
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: to happen and they had to pull the plug last second.

110
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: Avocados from Mexico, which is just always it's one of

111
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: these brands that just randomly, you know, every year or

112
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 1: so has a big Super Bowl head, you know, like

113
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: they're they are one of the standard Super Bowl advertisers. Um.

114
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: And I'm not always sure why that is, because it

115
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: seems it seems like advertising avocados from a specific place

116
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: should be something that you are aiming at some business community,

117
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: Like it's a business to business deal where you're like

118
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: get your avocados from Mexico Kroger, uh, not like something

119
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: like when I go to the store, I'm not necessarily

120
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: choosing between avocados from one place or another. I'm just

121
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: feeling with my hands. I feel like we don't know

122
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: where the avocados are from, like at the shop, like yeah,

123
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: they just say like avocados, organic avocados, you know those

124
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: two options, and you're not really like, Okay, is it

125
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: the avocados from Mexico brand or is it unless you're I.

126
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: I do think they do make like guacamole's and things

127
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: like that, So that's more where I think the branding

128
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: would be, like more iconography, where you would be like

129
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: in that pre made food section and you're like choosing

130
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: between the different pre made gualks. But otherwise unsure it

131
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: has not connected. I have not connected those ads to

132
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: a specific purchasing decision. I can tell you that much. Um,

133
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: but they were they got a lot of attention because

134
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: they were planning to incorporate chat GPT in their ad

135
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,239
Speaker 1: um and then it was pulled at the last minute

136
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: because they were not able to get the chat GPT

137
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: feature together in time, so which raised like why, I'm

138
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: just curious what the funk they had in mind, Like

139
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: what what were what were they planning to do. I

140
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: don't know, but I'm sure. I'm sure I could have

141
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: researched that. But it's it is just funny, like the

142
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 1: chat GPT thing just seems like a lot of people

143
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: confused about what this means and being scared of technology.

144
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 1: Scared oh technology, which is you know, I think a

145
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: standard mainstream media media trope. Are you planning to watch

146
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: the Big Game? Becca? No, you know what I cannot?

147
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: I Hey football, I think I've said that time and

148
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: time again here. I only used to watch it when

149
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: I worked in advertising, and I used to have like

150
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 1: spots in the Super Bowl. Which if you work in advertising,

151
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: God bless you this week, good luck. I know this

152
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: is a stressful week for you. I know, all those

153
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: social media managers. I'm praying for you because it's gonna

154
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: be a hard it's gonna be a hard weekend, very

155
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: overworked weekend. Um, but no, I have no I feel

156
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: blessed to be released from the shackles that is advertising

157
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: and the Big Game. Yeah, it's almost like the Super

158
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: Bowl is the super Bowl of advertising in many ways. Um. Okay,

159
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll come back and we'll

160
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: talk about some trailers and other stuff, and we're back.

161
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: And actually, first another super Bowl story that is happening.

162
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: It was very dumb. NFL fans believe that the Super

163
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: Bowl is secretly rigged. There was like a tweet that

164
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: went viral featuring a screenshot of the leaked super Bowl script,

165
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: including the final score in a video from some barstool

166
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: podcast in which uh Aryan Foster, former NFL great also

167
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 1: like pretty interesting person to like listen to on be interviewed,

168
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: but he did a bit claiming with you know, dead

169
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: pan seriousness, that the league is rigged and all the

170
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: players follow scripts. And I think some people are like

171
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 1: buying into this because there is because everybody like has

172
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 1: a financial stake now that gambling is legal, and it's

173
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: like even if you don't gamble, like you know someone

174
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: who gambles, or you at least like see it dramatized

175
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: and like gambling advertisements. So it's just like in the

176
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 1: bloodstream now like gambling, and whenever there's gambling happening, there's

177
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: going to be a conspiracy theory that like well is

178
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: fixed and like they you know, when when you lose

179
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: money on a game, it's it's hard not to start

180
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: so do you believe it's it's really rigged though, Jack?

181
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no no, And like, so I think

182
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: this is this is stupid, uh Like from a just

183
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: perspective of like it doesn't make sense, but it also

184
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: is stupid from the perspective of like misunderstanding our current

185
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,959
Speaker 1: like production and c g I capabilities, like the special effects,

186
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: the acting by athletes, the like game choreography required to

187
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 1: carry something at this level off is bonkers. It would

188
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: have to be like the greatest film ever produced, and

189
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: they would have to do it live. Wow, hundreds of

190
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 1: millions of people are watching. It would have to be

191
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: like every other game leading up to it, right, like

192
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: in theory to get to the big game where you

193
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: are competing. So I don't think it's rigged like I

194
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: think some some people's conspiracy theories are like that the

195
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: refs are like pushing in one direction and you can

196
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: see it like in a missed call here and there.

197
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 1: But the the idea that there is a script that

198
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: they're following would require such advanced levels of coordination. Um

199
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: I I kind of blame Jurassic Park for this because

200
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: I think people still saw the effects in like Jurassic

201
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: Park is like a blend of c g I and

202
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: practical effects, but people assumed that the practical effects were

203
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: also c g I, so they've assumed c g I

204
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: was like way further along than it actually was and

205
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: is and so every but he just thinks, how you

206
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 1: can do anything with a computer, Like it's it's fine.

207
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: It's like, no, that's you can do like very limited

208
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: things with a computer in with like camera tricks and

209
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: making sure to hide them in clever ways. But I

210
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: would hope that if it were c g I, right,

211
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 1: like if if if the big game, let's say we're rigged,

212
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: that we could prevent more like head traumas, you know

213
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like if if we could rig this game,

214
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: players dying, you know, I just I don't understand. Also,

215
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:41,719
Speaker 1: like the how much legalization of sports betting has blown up.

216
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: Like I was watching that Lebron James game where he

217
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:50,199
Speaker 1: broke the scoring record and there was a gambling edge

218
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: during that that featured Kevin Garnett gambling on an NBA game,

219
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: I believe, which like he's retired, fired, But that just

220
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: feels like a line, Yeah that shouldn't be crossed. Yeah,

221
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: like they major League baseball is like never recovered, Like

222
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 1: they're still so scandalized by like that one of their

223
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: great players, like having gambled on a game, not while

224
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: he was playing, but while he's a manager, and I think,

225
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe he also did it while he played.

226
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know. I don't give a ship.

227
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: But it's just funny how how much it has changed.

228
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: And this was actually one of the things that people

229
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 1: were pointing out. They were like, if we legalize gambling,

230
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: and this was back in two thousand nine when people

231
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: were trying to argue the merits of this and the

232
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: government they were like, people like this will quote inevitably

233
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: fuel speculation, distrust, and accusations of point shaving and game fixing.

234
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: So I mean they know which it just happens always

235
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: with gambling. All right, enough of the big game game

236
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: big enough? Uh, already, we don't need to we don't

237
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: need to lend it and anymore flames, anymore gasoline on

238
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: that fire. Let's talk about trailers. Trailer watch. Yeah, so

239
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: we're I was like, we should just have a trailer

240
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: that we talked about every trending episode, because why not.

241
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: That's that's my favorite part. Of trending is when we

242
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: get to watch a trailer today, we have to. We

243
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: have a movie called Paint that I thought was going

244
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: to be a Bob Ross like biopic. Vibe. Yes, I

245
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: thought it was Bob Ross biopic and it's got Owen

246
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: Wilson playing Bob Ross. And then you notice, like, but

247
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: he's still playing Owen Wilson with like in a bob

248
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: Ross Wait yeah um, and then it like Bob Ross's

249
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: career is derailed, and it's also the character's name is

250
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: not Bob Ross. And then it becomes the thing about

251
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: like him struggling with irrelevancy, and it just I don't know.

252
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: I was ready for the Bob Ross thing, but this

253
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: also seems interesting. I am always up for some more

254
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: Owen Wilson. What did you think same? I love Owen

255
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: Wilson and I love if C films, so I'm intrigued

256
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: about what it is. But I'm very confused as to

257
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: what it is because you go into it watching it

258
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: and you're like, and I think it was even served

259
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: me the article and it was like bob Ross Paint,

260
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, and you're watching it and

261
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: it's like very clear that he's actually not Bob Ross,

262
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: so you're like, okay, so then where is this story going.

263
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 1: Is it like an alternate universe of Bob Ross where

264
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: it's like a Bob Ross were self involved or if

265
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: Bob Barross were about the money. I'm not sure so,

266
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: but I will be watching because I love Owen Wilson

267
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: and it seems like very like quirky indie vibe, which

268
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: is very much up my alley of film watching. Yeah,

269
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: I think Bob ras was actually like he might have

270
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: so here let me I'm I'm fact checking live. So

271
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: this is exciting for the listener that Bob Ross wasn't

272
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: only a drill drill sergeant but would achieve the rank

273
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: of master sergeant serving as a first sergeant at Ailson

274
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: Air Force Base in Alaska. So like, that's an interesting Like,

275
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: that's a question. I didn't know that prior to Uh.

276
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: I think super producer Justin might have mentioned that as

277
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 1: we were watching this, Like that's a like, how you

278
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: get from drill instructor to the most zend out motherfucker

279
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: like to ever appear on television? Is an interesting story

280
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 1: that I would be intrigued to watch unless the answer

281
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,959
Speaker 1: is just like he just took so much acid, like

282
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: it was just his you know, cortexes were no longer

283
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: connected to one another. And oh, I just did a

284
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 1: quick google about the movie, though it says in two

285
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 1: any ten the screen A Paint was written by Britt

286
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: McAdams and was featured on the Blacklist of that year's

287
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 1: most likely unproduced screenplays. So I'm curious where this will

288
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:15,479
Speaker 1: go based on that. Yeah, so suproducer Ian is saying that, like,

289
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: the reason he's so soft spoken in Chill is he

290
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 1: hated how rigid the military was. Like, that's interesting to

291
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: see someone go from drill sergeant two, the guy who

292
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: talks like this, and it's like and then we're going

293
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 1: to get a little bit of yeah, like it really

294
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: someone like undergo a complete spiritual, psychic like change at

295
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: that level is interesting. I would be curious about that.

296
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: But so, so what you're saying, it was originally a

297
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: Bob Ross and then no, no, no, it was just

298
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: an original screenplay that was put on a blacklist on

299
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 1: for the years most liked produced screenplays. Yeah, the blacklist

300
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: is great. They always pick out some gems. And then

301
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: there's this other trailer called The Atwaters just gonna let

302
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: you watch it yourself. Very scary found footage. So two

303
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: things that I just want to call out here. One

304
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: is that it starts with like a fifteen second long

305
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: upside down shot, which I've been seeing more and more,

306
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: just like the shot is upside down. There there was

307
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: like a video that I saw, I think it was

308
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: like a TikTok transport to Twitter video of like somebody

309
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: just shooting out the window of their car, but they

310
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: were shooting it upside down and it was really like

311
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: kind of trippy and mind melding. But then like the

312
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: show Fleshman's in Trouble that it was just on Hulu

313
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: like opens with shots of New York City upside down

314
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,719
Speaker 1: and it like looks very cool and trippy, and this

315
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: starts with a upside down shot. Um, it's just funny

316
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 1: that like film, like the art of film is just

317
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: now like all discovering at the same time the thing

318
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: that like your kids discover when they put their heads

319
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: between their head between their legs and they're like whoa

320
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: as wild. Um, But yeah, it's it's so this is

321
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: like a trippy, uh found footage. It seems like there's

322
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: like some Texas chainsaw massacre, some maybe some alien stuff happening,

323
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: but in the desert. Uh, it looks very cool, Like

324
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: the sound design looks very cool. I don't know, I'm

325
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: here for it. Yeah. I listened to the trailer with

326
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: these you know, big Sony headphones on my head, and

327
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: it was absolutely terrifying. Like the there's like this phone

328
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: call element of this, like very distressed mom calling her

329
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 1: kids being like I can't find you, where are you?

330
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 1: Are you okay? And it is just like, oh my god,

331
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 1: it is so so so so so so so terrifying. Um,

332
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: there's like a little a bit of like a jump

333
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: scare just in your ears towards the end, and I'm

334
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 1: genuinely very terrified. I don't know if I'll be able

335
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: to go through with watching this movie. I like my

336
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 1: scary movies more in the veil of like thriller, creepy,

337
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 1: not like actual like I like cosmic horror, yeah, or like, um,

338
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 1: I like things that are kind of like more superstitious

339
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: or more like you know, fantasy. Like I don't like

340
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: my horror to be rooted in like such reality because

341
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: then it's like too real for me. I'm like, oh,

342
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: this could happen. To me, my favorite example is like

343
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 1: the Haunting of Hillhouse series, like those some episodes of

344
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: those get really really scary, but it's like all very

345
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 1: much like mystical, like very much not rooted in reality reality, right. Anyways,

346
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: the other thing that this seems to like the it

347
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: seems to be found footage in a world where people

348
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: who shot the footage like actually carried like we're trying

349
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: to take cool videos because like that's that's something that

350
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of the found footage stuff,

351
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, so it's found footage, so it

352
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: has to be they had to leave leave their camera

353
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: on a rock and like it doesn't which probably makes

354
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: sense for like once the terror starts. But there's just

355
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: like a lot of beautiful shots in there, which makes

356
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: sense because some people just are beautiful cinematographers with their phones.

357
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 1: So anyways, you know. The other thing, and I don't like,

358
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go on about this for twenty minutes,

359
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: but the trade deadline in the NBA has been mind melting.

360
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: I just want to say sorry, nets fans um. Although

361
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe this is the best thing for

362
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,679
Speaker 1: the future of the organization because they got a lot

363
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 1: of picks. But Kevin Durant has been traded to the

364
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: Phoenix Suns, which bums me out for some reason because

365
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 1: I just like, never, I don't know, I can I've

366
00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: never been able to get even when they were like

367
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: a really exciting team with like Steve Nash, Marie Stottomeyer, like,

368
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: I couldn't get excited about them, So I don't. I

369
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: don't know if it's their uniforms, what it is, but

370
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 1: I just this doesn't get me. It's like a super

371
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: team that I'm not super excited about. And that's not fair.

372
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 1: That's just a completely personal thing. People are gonna be like, oh,

373
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: you're just a son's hair. Yeah, I have no good,

374
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 1: good reason for it whatsoever. Um, it's definitely exciting. Then

375
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: the n B A is you know, is wild for that?

376
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: You're you're wild for this one. The NBA Kyrie obviously

377
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: we talked about how he got traded. Um, the the

378
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: Lakers traded Russell Russell Westbrook and got some young pieces

379
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 1: that might help them in the long run. But it's

380
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 1: a it's a mess out there. It's going to be

381
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: very intriguing to to watch. I feel like they were like, oh,

382
00:23:54,600 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: you think that's the big game. Yeah. Um, anyways, Becca,

383
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: your thoughts. I know you're a huge Sons fan. You

384
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: know I agree with all your sentiments. Jack. Oh good,

394
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: L the opening night of Magic Mike's Last Dance, which

395
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,720

Speaker 1: on going. I was gonna go tonight, but I have

397
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: to wake up early to drive back to the city tomorrow,

398
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: so I think I'm going to go this weekend on Saturday,

399
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 1: Last Dance. I hope he doesn't die. I don't think

400
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna die, but I think he's gonna officially retire

401
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: every movie. He's like, I'm done stripping, and then you know,

402
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: they make a new movie. So I think this is

403
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: supposed to be like his final Swan song in London

404
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: would sell mahiak and Rosalia that they will not talk

405
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: that she's in it, but like she's in a couple

406
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: of picks of the trailers, so I'm like, we're not

407
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: gonna talk about Rosalie is in the movie. So we'll

408
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: see it's in London. It's in London. Would sell sequel

409
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: where they're just like, what if a new city? Yeah,

410
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: what if a new city? We got rid of all

411
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 1: the guys. We just have Channing Tatum. It's gonna give

412
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: you step up vibes and not like traditional stripper vibe,

413
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: and we're gonna have Rosalia be in it, which makes

414
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: me wonder if they're going to dance Flamenco strip because

415
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,719
Speaker 1: Rosalia's you know, traditional roots are Flamenco because you know,

416
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 1: we love a colonizers. But's like hold the conversation. But

417
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: she's originally a Flamenco singer, So I'm wondering if they're

418
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: going to do a little Flamenco in London. We'll see, Well,

419
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: British Men dancing is a whole genre of movie. For

420
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: whatever reason, they're like the full Monty and Billy Elliott,

421
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: They're like, what if a British boy danced? What if?

422
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: What if? What if the man dance? Though? Um, so

423
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: that's funny that they were just like, well, we'll do that. Well,

424
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: it'll be a crossover to the British man dance uh genre.

425
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 1: All Right? That amazing. Go listen to the backdel cast

426
