Speaker 4: you go the picket line, you eat some free pizza,
Speaker 4: that Jerry Seinfeld brought you.
Speaker 2: It's great. It's fun to see all the celebrities that
Speaker 2: pull up in solidarity. Like I saw a flavor Flave
Speaker 2: came up, like he brought a bunch of burgers, a
Speaker 2: bunch of burgers, and I'm like noted, noted.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, Larry David sent a coffee truck. The Daniels.
Speaker 4: They brought a bunch of ARBs to Netflix one day,

Speaker 2: Does Arby's travel It doesn't, but they're.
Speaker 3: On from It was very close.
Speaker 4: But like they got and they to their credit, they
Speaker 4: stole a tray from the Arby's and just like covered
Speaker 4: it and like curly fries and mots rella sticks. But
Speaker 4: I think they did a disservice going with like a
Speaker 4: lot of the fried stuff.
Speaker 3: Is that just like you know, by the time you
Speaker 3: make it one loop around the picket line, it's it's cold.
Speaker 1: To get Yeah, Arby's got the meats. They can you
Speaker 1: can have a turkey sandwich from there to hogs and
Speaker 1: a little.
Speaker 2: Come on meat Mountain. Remember when they used to do
Speaker 2: that when they put all of them on the sandwich. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and now they're doing like sliders or something anyway, Yeah.
Speaker 3: They got like a slider thing they're trying to really read.
Speaker 2: There's like the one Arby's of note in LA. Is
Speaker 2: that in La? Like by Netflix?
Speaker 1: So I can it looks like it could be the
Speaker 1: original Arby's. Like the sign that's outside of it looks
Speaker 1: like it's in the background of the Taxi Driver movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right right, it.
Speaker 4: Looks like the one that the original McDonald's. That's like
Speaker 4: the first one, you know, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: You you are one of their fore most TV thinkers writers. Yeah, so,
Speaker 1: I mean it's a time of prestige television. So I'm
Speaker 1: glad to hear that you're, you know, get getting caught
Speaker 1: up on vander Pump and the History other things, the

Speaker 2: Where you like that genre of reality show which is
Speaker 2: expert yells at stupid people like like yeah, like Tabitha's
Speaker 2: Salon takeover.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Tabitha's Salon takeover, Bar rescue, like on the Kitchen
Speaker 4: and Spectrum like my six hundred pound life, and like hoarders.
Speaker 2: Oh are the Shark Tank count?
Speaker 1: Is that?
Speaker 2: Or not? When it's good?
Speaker 3: When when someone can yeah, when it's good.
Speaker 4: But sometimes people on Shark Tank, it's like, Okay, you're smart,
Speaker 4: this is boring. I want I want someone who's just
Speaker 4: like they're yelling and they're like, you shouldn't store cat
Speaker 4: piss in your fridge.
Speaker 3: And that's why not?
Speaker 2: Like well why not? Mark?
Speaker 3: You know, why not? Why can't I do that? What's
Speaker 3: the issue?
Speaker 2: Something like an issue with you? That's my favorite part
Speaker 2: of Shark Tank is when a pitch goes south and
Speaker 2: then the person gets salty with the sharks and you're like, oh, okay,
Speaker 2: go ahead.
Speaker 3: Blow it up now, it's good, blow it up.
Speaker 2: Yeah right exactly. Yo, man, you're ruining lucas career. Bro,

Speaker 1: You refrigerated, cat piss container refrigerated. You never know when
Speaker 1: you're gonna want those refrigerated.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm sorry, man, you started your pitch saying, what
Speaker 2: doesn't yetti make that everyone's asking for something that keeps
Speaker 2: yours cold.
Speaker 1: Something that keeps explicitly specific.
Speaker 3: For But yeah, that's that's the brand of reality TV.
Speaker 2: I love.
Speaker 4: I've been diving back into all the trash. Did all
Speaker 4: of I Am Jazz seven seasons? Watch it in three days?
Speaker 4: It's a problem I am.
Speaker 3: I guess it's this TLC reality show.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's about and it's about intermural jazz done by
Speaker 4: this girl, Jazz Jennings, who was like the youngest first
Speaker 4: trans woman to like be like on TV. She did
Speaker 4: like twenty twenty when she was like six years old,
Speaker 4: and then her parents were like, oh, we can make
Speaker 4: money off of this for a long time, and they
Speaker 4: put her on a reality show that has gone on
Speaker 4: from basically when she was like twelve to now twenty
Speaker 4: two and in college and most of the show you're
Speaker 4: just like, please let this girl just live a normal
Speaker 4: life and get her off of TV. Please just like
Speaker 4: let her leave her alone. And then you see a
Speaker 4: mom who's just like no, no, and it's too actually, yeah,
Speaker 4: just her mom being like, yeah, I see what you're
Speaker 4: saying about maybe how she could use some privacy. But
Speaker 4: have you ever considered that I like being on television
Speaker 4: and it's great.
Speaker 2: It's so good.
Speaker 1: That sounds amazing. All right, Well, Ashley, we're gonna get
Speaker 1: to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: a couple of things we're talking about later in the episode.
Speaker 1: We're gonna check back in with Harlan Crowe. The Atlantic
Speaker 1: hit us with another puff piece from our.
Speaker 2: Boy, Graham Wood. Graham Wood knock on Wood.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's still a fan, dude, you won't believe it.
Speaker 1: So he finally got the invite that he's been dying for.
Speaker 1: The guy who for Harlan Crowe is so fucking sad
Speaker 1: to me. Yeah, and he's like a lifelong Harlan Crow simp.
Speaker 1: He's like, I've peered through the gates of his house
Speaker 1: and wondered what it would be like to be inside there.
Speaker 1: And so therefore The Atlantic has made this my beat me,
Speaker 1: the strangest person to like, the person with the strangest
Speaker 1: connection to the story possible. I'm now the authority on that. Anyways,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that weird story. We'll talk about David
Speaker 1: zaz Love Warner brother Discovery CEO The Zazz to be
Speaker 1: you his alma mater, to deliver a commencement speech, and
Speaker 1: it was unlike presumably what.
Speaker 2: He was expecting, different than all hands meeting at Warner Discovery.
Speaker 1: They handed him his ass Yes, exactly what you are
Speaker 1: expecting hearing that sentence, but unlike what the Zazz was expecting.
Speaker 2: So we'll talk about that.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about Adidas's plan to sell off the remaining
Speaker 1: Geezy gear with like some proceeds going to charity. But
Speaker 1: it's basically like, man, we're upside down on this ship.
Speaker 1: And then Disney Plus is getting rid of a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of content from Yeah, they're doing the bunch of TV,
Speaker 1: they're doing the we're writing it down as a loss
Speaker 1: and therefore you're never allowed.
Speaker 2: To see it again.
Speaker 1: Thank you, all of that plenty more. But first, Ashley,
Speaker 1: we do like to ask our guests, what is something
Speaker 1: from your search history this week?
Speaker 4: In my search history deep dives into California and New
Speaker 4: Jersey child support laws because on the latest season of
Speaker 4: Selling Sunset, one of the new people is Nick Cannon's
Speaker 4: baby mama, Wow, which, Yeah, I had no idea Nick
Speaker 4: Cannon's reach would.
Speaker 3: Hit the Selling Sunset universe.
Speaker 4: I think by the year twenty twenty eight, every TV
Speaker 4: show will feature one of Nick Cannon's baby mamas first.
Speaker 2: And she like, wait, Bree is one of nick can Bree.
Speaker 4: Brie is Nick Cannon's baby mama, and she is six
Speaker 4: weeks post baby. And basically all of these women in
Speaker 4: the in the Oh the Oppenheimer group are like, how
Speaker 4: can you be with him? Like you see a good dad,
Speaker 4: And she's like, that's my man, that's my family. I
Speaker 4: stand by him. We're such a we're in an open relationship,
Speaker 4: but he's my man. And then she finds out two
Speaker 4: days later he had a baby and that she just
Speaker 4: did not even know was coming. She's like, wait, there's
Speaker 4: another baby, no idea. And she's talking to all the
Speaker 4: other women and she's like, well, in California, if I'm
Speaker 4: man has more than ten children, they can just be like,
Speaker 4: he can't afford any more child support. So like Nick
Speaker 4: Cannon doesn't have to pay anymore because he had so
Speaker 4: many kids, But this kid is baby number eight, so
Speaker 4: makes it in the window. But then a bunch of
Speaker 4: people were like, she's wrong, That's not how California child
Speaker 4: support laws work. So I had to google it for
Speaker 4: myself to really get to the bottom of this thing,
Speaker 4: and it turns out that's not true. At ten kids
Speaker 4: in California, they can like relook at your financial status
Speaker 4: and be like, hey, let's like across the board bring
Speaker 4: the amount down for all your twenty children. But there's
Speaker 4: never a limit where it's like yeah, yeah, where it's
Speaker 4: like you got too many kids, Like anybody after twelve,
Speaker 4: we're s harrd.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So that interpretation of the law seems like it was
Speaker 1: written by Nick Cannon. Yes, like I think has like
Speaker 1: Cannon and Cannon.
Speaker 3: He has like a copy and pasted the text.
Speaker 4: He says to these women that's like yeah, but just
Speaker 4: so you know in California, he's.
Speaker 2: Like, Oh, let me put you on the phone with
Speaker 2: my lawyer, which is me who I'm gonna guess with.
Speaker 4: A right now, speaking in a silly voice. But let
Speaker 4: me tell you the girl. I literally by the time
Speaker 4: they finished filming the season, apparently he already has three
Speaker 4: other kids. After Breeze kid. It's like within five months,
Speaker 4: it is a wild.
Speaker 2: Wow wow wow. Breathe, Okay, I'm like reading things like
Speaker 2: she found about child nine, like on the set, on.
Speaker 4: The set, like she's just hanging out trying to sell
Speaker 4: a house, opens her phone and is like what whoops?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and the other girls are not nice about it. No,
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, just so you know they are not supported.
Speaker 2: No, I'm seen, yeah, because they they they they move
Speaker 2: in a certain way like I remember like a Manza
Speaker 2: when she was struggling and all that are you'll even
Speaker 2: like the Brown woman some problems here selling Sunset because
Speaker 2: that's what it looks like.
Speaker 4: To me, that's what it is. And it's yeah, and
Speaker 4: we have some new big bats this season. So my
Speaker 4: search history has just been dedicated to understand all things
Speaker 4: child support in real estate law in California.
Speaker 2: Shit. I just love that he's treating like paternity like
Speaker 2: a subway punch card. And he's like, I got to ten.
Speaker 2: There's no such thing as child support. This after ten,
Speaker 2: you're good. Yeah, after ten, you're good.
Speaker 4: He also did a big interview where he sell its
Speaker 4: favorite like he was like, my favorite child is Onyx
Speaker 4: and he was like three days a week. I make
Speaker 4: sure to be with Onyx, which is the child born
Speaker 4: right after briskid.
Speaker 2: Oh, and their child is called Legendary Love.
Speaker 4: Yes, Legendary Love, who does not make his favorite not
Speaker 4: Onyx is the only one. He's like, I go to
Speaker 4: back for her.
Speaker 2: He's like, because I fucked with the rap group Onyx
Speaker 2: back in the day after that House of Pain.
Speaker 1: He also was just the subject of an LA Times
Speaker 1: article that was like everybody like pigeonholes him as guy
Speaker 1: with lots of kids, but you don't know is he's
Speaker 1: like clearing fifty million dollars a year, which sounds like
Speaker 1: it's gonna sounds like he had the wrong interpretation of
Speaker 1: the child support law when when he did that story, because.
Speaker 4: Sounds yeah, yeah, because it's like you don't want people
Speaker 4: to know how much money you're making. I think, like Nick,
Speaker 4: this is going to be a tax issue in the future.
Speaker 4: Like I just he's not making good choices here.
Speaker 2: Right right, Unfortunately, care how many hair rats you're wearing.
Speaker 4: He might want to google some California child support laws
Speaker 4: because he clearly doesn't know what he's working.
Speaker 2: He' said like, my honor, I will represent myself by
Speaker 2: day and I do believe uh Section two twenty subcold three,
Speaker 2: you have sub cold. I don't know. Look, my honor,
Speaker 2: it's been a long day. I have twelve.
Speaker 3: I have twelve kids. I have been in the court
Speaker 3: of wild and out all day.
Speaker 2: So tired.
Speaker 1: Do you have any idea how many colds I've had.
Speaker 1: I've had all the colds, every flu, every variant of flu,
Speaker 1: currently traveling through the public school system in Californe. What
Speaker 1: is something that you think is overrated?
Speaker 4: I truly had ted Lasso written on my list. I
Speaker 4: do still watch it in this third season. The finale
Speaker 4: is in two weeks. This last episode I thought was
Speaker 4: one of the corniest things I've ever seen on TV.
Speaker 4: And then I get on Twitter and everyone is like,
Speaker 4: I cried for thirty hours after that episode of ted Lasso.
Speaker 4: That was Yeah, that's just that was the most beautiful
Speaker 4: thing when they had the mean guy play violin while
Speaker 4: a woman did a monologue, and you were like, oh
Speaker 4: my gosh, humanity is beautiful. I just I was just
Speaker 4: like sitting there, like, am I having a stroke? Like
Speaker 4: am I just have I become the world's meanest hater
Speaker 4: that I don't understand what people are saying in this
Speaker 4: what what is?
Speaker 2: What is it? And I know I I say this
Speaker 2: as a joke club like, but what is it about Ted?
Speaker 2: Because I get everybody loved it. I watch it, and
Speaker 2: for whatever reason, it rubs me the wrong way. For
Speaker 2: some reason, I'm not and I'm not. And I went
Speaker 2: into it being like, yeah, fuck with soccer, Yeah go ahead,
Speaker 2: and then I'll go yeah. I don't know, man, I
Speaker 2: think in my mind I was like, I'm too far
Speaker 2: gone for this show, is how I sort of described it,
Speaker 2: like I'm damaged goods and I can't.
Speaker 4: Interesting because the first season is incredible, Like I will
Speaker 4: give the first season all that credit. If you're gonna
Speaker 4: watch it, just watch the first season. It started as
Speaker 4: this sharp, thirty minute sitcom that was, you know about
Speaker 4: like enemies becoming friends and your pretty standard tropes, but
Speaker 4: in an interesting way with soccer. And then somewhere along
Speaker 4: the lay way, they were like, how about instead of
Speaker 4: thirty minute episodes, we make the episodes an hour and
Speaker 4: instead of a funny sitcom, we turn it into like.
Speaker 3: A drama rom com.
Speaker 4: And actually it can just be like ten different genres
Speaker 4: all shoved together. So sometimes it's like a sports show,
Speaker 4: and sometimes it's a rom com and sometimes it's like
Speaker 4: a feminist good time, and I don't think anyone knows
Speaker 4: what they're doing, and they just kind of gave into
Speaker 4: all the fan service of like, oh, fans want Roy
Speaker 4: Kent to be like nice and funny, so let's make
Speaker 4: him nice and funny. Now, Oh, they don't want Nate
Speaker 4: to be evil, so let's like keep Nate not too
Speaker 4: evil and just make him nice again for no real reason.
Speaker 4: And it just really is one of those shows. I
Speaker 4: don't think we've seen a show like this in modern
Speaker 4: times that has like lost its way so thoroughly because
Speaker 4: it gave in too like all of the awards and
Speaker 4: fan service and just was like yeah, go yeah, Like
Speaker 4: there's no reason for these episodes to be an hour long.
Speaker 4: Like you watch it and you're just like, why am
Speaker 4: I still watch?
Speaker 3: Like how is it still there?
Speaker 2: Right right right? You're looking at your watch?
Speaker 1: Really, we covered how Jason Sadaik has recently revealed that
Speaker 1: like Ted Lasso originally was like mean, like every football
Speaker 1: coach in the world actually is, and then yeah, like
Speaker 1: full of toxic masculinity, and then he like when Trump
Speaker 1: got elected, he had the insight that like maybe people
Speaker 1: just need a nice person, And then it sounds like
Speaker 1: they have systematically had that same insight about every single
Speaker 1: character and every like conflict and negative emotion that it's like,
Speaker 1: what if everyone was just happy and yeah, they revealed
Speaker 1: their trauma immediately and then had it smoothed out by
Speaker 1: just good old fashioned American optimism.
Speaker 4: What about that there's no conflict, There's no anytime they
Speaker 4: try to create conflict, you know that it's not real.
Speaker 4: There's a character who comes out of the closet this
Speaker 4: this season and one of his friends kind of acts like, oh,
Speaker 4: I don't want to talk to you anymore, don't touch me.
Speaker 4: And you're like, oh, no, is he homophobic? Is this
Speaker 4: going to be an actual issue? But almost I was
Speaker 4: immediately like no, his problem is that he can't believe
Speaker 4: the guy lied to him, but he's totally supported. Yeah,
Speaker 4: And by the end of the episode, he's showing up
Speaker 4: to the Flowers like it's not that you're gay, it's
Speaker 4: just that you didn't tell me for five years and.
Speaker 2: I shouldn't have centered myself in your process.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's like, yeah, great, I'm glad we spent
Speaker 4: you know, four episodes on this just so we can
Speaker 4: end on them playing video games together and being buddies again.
Speaker 3: Okay, great, right, right?
Speaker 2: And yeah, because I remember initially when that character came out,
Speaker 2: it was like a promo for NBC Sports and he
Speaker 2: was like a he was like a hard ass football
Speaker 2: coach trying to deal with this club.
Speaker 5: And the last character when he came as a like
Speaker 5: a commercial, Yeah, it was like an extended mid roll
Speaker 5: basically YouTube like viral clip, and then they kind of
Speaker 5: quickly faded off.
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: And I think you can just tell Jason Sadeikis is
Speaker 4: tired of playing this character. I think he doesn't really
Speaker 4: understand why this is the show that he's doing that
Speaker 4: like blew up like this, like.
Speaker 3: You watch now and you just kind of like he
Speaker 3: has just like the sense of like why do people
Speaker 3: like this? Yeah, I feel like he's baffled.
Speaker 1: I think they're going to get it right with the
Speaker 1: next Prestige TV show adapted from a TV commercial character,
Speaker 1: Jake from State Farm is actually going to be just
Speaker 1: like a problem a fixer in Washington sort of scandal,
Speaker 1: but with without any of the conflict or pathos, and
Speaker 1: Jake from State Farm just like fix it easily.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Apple TV is working on this as we saw.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like they have some scab writers who are getting
Speaker 4: it down.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, fully written by AI. What is something that
Speaker 1: you think is underrated?
Speaker 4: Yeah, a very TV centric list. As you know, as
Speaker 4: the host of TV, I say underrated. I'm going with
Speaker 4: Missus Davis on Peacock. It's an amazing show that no
Speaker 4: one is talking about because Peacock doesn't promote their TV shows.
Speaker 4: They just the only one they want people to know
Speaker 4: about is bubb Kiss with Pete Davidson. But they have
Speaker 4: this other show, Missus Davis, that is revolutionary. It is
Speaker 4: the best show I've watched this year and no one
Speaker 4: is talking about.
Speaker 1: It's after being hosted from her convents, sister Simone vows
Speaker 1: to destroy the one responsible, powerful artificial intelligence known as
Speaker 1: Missus Davis.
Speaker 3: Wait what exactly?
Speaker 4: It is about a nun who is trying to destroy
Speaker 4: this massive AI system that's taken over the world. Basically,
Speaker 4: it's like, you know, you put a little air pod
Speaker 4: in your ear and it scans your brain and knows
Speaker 4: everything you want, everything you want or need.
Speaker 3: It can like help you achieve.
Speaker 4: So everyone in the world is obsessed with this AI
Speaker 4: product and this one Nun blames it for killing her
Speaker 4: father and is out for revenge, and that is fuck
Speaker 4: the high level story.
Speaker 3: It's Damon Lindloft, Damon Lindeloff.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's yes, but with this in Watchman, I
Speaker 4: am like, he's my favorite. He's killing it. All The
Speaker 4: performances are so good. Betty Gilpin is the lead. The
Speaker 4: guy from Greek, Yeah, Greek Hive if you're out there, Yeah,
Speaker 4: Jack Evan from Greek is the main guy in it.
Speaker 4: And it's so incredible. It's just that only scratches the
Speaker 4: surface of what the show is about. But it is
Speaker 4: probably the smartest written thing I've seen on TV this year.
Speaker 4: It is one of those shows that makes you go,
Speaker 4: oh yeah, human people need to write television. This is
Speaker 4: why it's so incredible and smart, right, It's it's so
Speaker 4: good And I wish that I wish Peacock would do
Speaker 4: as much advertising for their shows as I do, Like
Speaker 4: I promote Peacock shows more than their own PR department,
Speaker 4: And so yeah, missus Davis, please yeah.
Speaker 1: I can't figure out why the streaming economy doesn't work
Speaker 1: where you just like make these really expensive press these
Speaker 1: shows and then just like dump them in the dark.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then in the dark and you don't tell anyone,
Speaker 4: yeah yeah, and then you're just like, oh, but Pete
Speaker 4: Davidson's Bubbkiss will put up ten million billboards about it.
Speaker 2: Right, right.
Speaker 1: Blame I blame the writers personally.
Speaker 2: I think it's they're just too selfish or could you
Speaker 2: imagine it's at the work of an algorithm in the
Speaker 2: Peacock marketing arons like I don't know about AI, like
Speaker 2: someone destroying me. No, no, no, let's not promote that one.
Speaker 3: Let's not promote it.
Speaker 4: Let's really focus on bub Kiss and the wrestling that
Speaker 4: Peacock has for some reason.
Speaker 2: Right, it's okay, good? Yeah, I mean because it's true,
Speaker 2: like the marketing really is not great. Like we had
Speaker 2: Jason Wallinger on when Paul T. Goodman came out, and
Speaker 2: like a lot of our listeners are like, what's this show,
Speaker 2: and they're like, I have Peacock.
Speaker 4: I have Peacock and haven't heard about it. Like I
Speaker 4: check Peacock every day and it won't tell me about
Speaker 4: like new seasons of shows I have watched on Peacock,
Speaker 4: Like I watched all of the first season of Killing
Speaker 4: It and I know it got a second season that
Speaker 4: I think comes out soon, and I like Peacock's not like, Hey,
Speaker 4: that show you watched is coming back.
Speaker 2: I want that. Yeah, it's like you want more of that,
Speaker 2: I guess it.
Speaker 4: And so yeah, I gotta I gotta scream about missus
Speaker 4: Davis kill a I and she's a hot nun.
Speaker 2: So there you go, there you go.
Speaker 1: All right, well let's take a quick break and we
Speaker 1: will be right back. And we're back, and Harlan Crowe
Speaker 1: is just a regular old guy and everybody needs to
Speaker 1: cool it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, do you say anything more
Speaker 2: than that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I wasn't familiar with Harlan Crowe before
Speaker 4: all of this controversy, so I was shocked that he
Speaker 4: apparently had a stand in this like Gramo guy who
Speaker 4: was just like, oh, I've been into this dude, and
Speaker 4: he's just a regular dude, you know, like all of
Speaker 4: our grandpa's. He's like funding a Supreme Court judge, you know,
Speaker 4: just a regular old dude like.
Speaker 1: All of them. For how else would you unburden yourself
Speaker 1: with generations of inherited wealth? When he said the things
Speaker 1: that this right bind.
Speaker 2: He's not buying Nazi crap. He's unburdening him himself with
Speaker 2: this historical relics, that's.
Speaker 3: All it is.
Speaker 4: And if you're gonna buy historical relics, why would it
Speaker 4: be of say the country you live in, or maybe
Speaker 4: something related.
Speaker 3: Why wouldn't it be Nazis.
Speaker 2: It's gotta be cool.
Speaker 3: There's so much history.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But so the first like as people were, you know,
Speaker 1: as the pro Publica series was being published, The Atlantic
Speaker 1: came out with this article that made headlines because the
Speaker 1: author was like, anyone who calls him a Nazi for
Speaker 1: collecting Nazi paraphernalia is an idiot, and I think we
Speaker 1: all know that, right, people can all agree His last
Speaker 1: line of like the article is something to the effect
Speaker 1: of like Harlan Crowe's friends know that he's not a Nazi,
Speaker 1: and it's like but and those that don't, of course,
Speaker 1: they jump to that because they're not smart like his friends.
Speaker 1: And you're like like, like, oh what, because America is
Speaker 1: a meritocracy and we can all just agree on that
Speaker 1: and move on. But as we talked about the last
Speaker 1: time we covered this, the guy Graham Wood is a
Speaker 1: like as he mentioned in the first article, like grew
Speaker 1: up in the same town as Harlan crow and like
Speaker 1: Dallas and would like run past his compound and like
Speaker 1: peer through the gates and like wonder what was going.
Speaker 1: So he's he is like a lifelong fan of this
Speaker 1: billionaire like property. Yeah, his property, his mystique, you know.
Speaker 2: So he's he's.
Speaker 1: Always wanted to just get in there. He's been looking
Speaker 1: for this opportunity to.
Speaker 4: You know, we all peek over the fence of a
Speaker 4: villain's mansion and go, Maybe me someday.
Speaker 1: I wish I could hang and hang out in there
Speaker 1: and enjoy some cannabis.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you favorite favorite pastime of black and
Speaker 2: brown people in the US peering over somebody's fence that
Speaker 2: you don't it always ends properly where I've never done
Speaker 2: that ship in my life. But anyway, this piece, though,
Speaker 2: he really got the first piece got Harlan Crowe's attention,
Speaker 2: and he was like, oh shit, this okay, these guys
Speaker 2: kind of a fan standing up. Yeah, I like, I
Speaker 2: fuck with this grand.
Speaker 3: He wants to see.
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally over. So guess who got a personal invitation
Speaker 2: to Harlan Crowe's fucking sculpture garden. None other than Graham
Speaker 2: would and apparently up top he's like, look, man, I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna talk about this Clarence Thomas shit. He's like,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure, sure, for sure,
Speaker 2: obviously we will never That's not even important to me.
Speaker 2: What I'm trying to do is humanize you. And this
Speaker 2: whole thing it's about as predictably like a puff piece
Speaker 2: as you can imagine. Like it's filled with some really
Speaker 2: dumb equivocations. There's one part where Harlan Crow's like, I
Speaker 2: wouldn't be mad if like, let's say George Soros was
Speaker 2: friends with like the head of the World Bank, And
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, y'all, you really screamed that dog whistle
Speaker 2: into the mic. Okay, okay, And let's not pretend like
Speaker 2: a Supreme Court justice is some kind of rabid capitalist
Speaker 2: business person. But I guess maybe that's what is being revealed,
Speaker 2: is that these these people are not really here to
Speaker 2: adjudicate fairly that they're they can you know, they're ideological
Speaker 2: pieces that can be manipulated by people like Harlan Crowe.
Speaker 2: But again, I think overall this piece just a really
Speaker 2: really cool moment where this journalist completely misses the point
Speaker 2: in order to like curry favor with a billionaire that
Speaker 2: he admires and tries to pretend as if his ties
Speaker 2: to Clarence Thomas aren't deeply problematic. He's like, of course
Speaker 2: you should disclose that stuff, obviously. I'm saying that. He's like,
Speaker 2: what was the fucking problem if he bought his mom's house.
Speaker 2: She lives there rent free or pay whatever. Marla's just
Speaker 2: a good dude.
Speaker 4: He's always just helping people who happen to be on
Speaker 4: the Supreme Court.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, always like.
Speaker 2: He knows where to put his money. The title of
Speaker 2: the piece is called the Collector because you're like, wow, great,
Speaker 2: I love.
Speaker 4: It is, which I just like they just wave off
Speaker 4: the collecting Nazi memorabilia so easy, like just it's not
Speaker 4: like collecting lucky pennies, okay, Like in Germany people aren't
Speaker 4: allowed to collect Nazi memorabilia. I studied German history, and
Speaker 4: I have no interest in collecting like Nazi memorabilia.
Speaker 2: Like what, It's just so fascinating that some of the
Speaker 2: three leaders during World War Two were all artists. I
Speaker 2: just think there's a fun story there. That's what he
Speaker 2: says about buying Hitler's painting.
Speaker 3: That's just a fun story.
Speaker 2: So there's a fun story there, Like Okay, well what's
Speaker 2: the fun I.
Speaker 4: Mean, this is where I'm like taking Let's ask them,
Speaker 4: Let's ask some more questions.
Speaker 2: I think at best, right, he's so disconnected from what
Speaker 2: it means to collect that Nazi shit that he really
Speaker 2: doesn't see an issue because like, oh, like I'm not
Speaker 2: affected by white supremacy or hate like in ways like that.
Speaker 2: Plus my money insulates me from that kind of reality.
Speaker 2: So I truly look at it as buying like old shit.
Speaker 2: Not even that I don't like. I like it. I'm like,
Speaker 2: I get a fun story. I don't know what. I
Speaker 2: don't know. Hitler wasn't that scary, even when I think
Speaker 2: of myself, I probably would have been fine.
Speaker 3: So you know, are what are we afraid of?
Speaker 2: Yeah? What's the issue? But yeah, like there's another part though, too,
Speaker 2: where like Graham Wood really wants to underline crows like
Speaker 2: never Trump like bona fides or he's like man like
Speaker 2: he he hates Trump though, like he hates them, so
Speaker 2: like huh, like it's just kind of like out of know,
Speaker 2: we're just saying that, Like, so that's got to count
Speaker 2: for something. It's like, but at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: he is so invested in the conservative like legal movement
Speaker 2: that like, what, I don't understand why you think that
Speaker 2: one is different from the other, because they're both. They're
Speaker 2: both like trains that are moving in the exact same direction. Yeah.
Speaker 1: One is impolite and draws attention to itself, which yeah,
Speaker 1: is against the rules, especially for people who are part of,
Speaker 1: you know, the tradition of collecting and protecting generational wealth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, so the Trump is bad for those people.
Speaker 2: There was there was another good quote that was saying,
Speaker 2: how Harlan Crow like, actually he doesn't feel powerful at all.
Speaker 2: He doesn't get why. He's like, He's like, I'm actually
Speaker 2: not that powerful. They Yeah, He's like, I'm windle and weak.
Speaker 2: He's like he's like they even like in the thing
Speaker 2: that like saying even President Biden has said he's like
Speaker 2: how He's like, you think you're gonna be calling the shots.
Speaker 2: He's like, I take more orders now as president than
Speaker 2: I ever thought I would as like as a way
Speaker 2: to be like yeah, yeah, because you don't know where
Speaker 2: you are home. That's what.
Speaker 1: Part of the Democratic Party that is fucking tied irrevocably
Speaker 1: to massive billionaires like this asshole.
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, but it just like it's fun to like painted.
Speaker 2: It's like he doesn't even think he's he himself thinks
Speaker 2: he's weak, so it's okay, Like, yeah.
Speaker 4: It's totally fine if I'm not actually because I don't
Speaker 4: think I have the power. Like sometimes I call Clarence
Speaker 4: Thomas and he doesn't even call me back until like
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes later.
Speaker 3: I'm very, very weak.
Speaker 1: Those fifteen minutes they feel like an hour.
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, man, I tell you. I've told
Speaker 2: Mike Walt granddaughter who just got back from Liberal Arts College.
Speaker 2: I've been ghosted too, okay by Clarence. It's tough out here.
Speaker 2: It's hard for a billy, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's more predictable, like nonsense. I don't
Speaker 2: know why they're all in on this campaign to like
Speaker 2: try and defend Harlan Crow, like like what the editors
Speaker 2: at The Atlantic are like, oh you got another Harlan
Speaker 2: Crow piece. Yeah, it up in the hot. But again,
Speaker 2: at the end of the day's go. It's truly to
Speaker 2: be what the kids say, right, let's go, let's go.
Speaker 2: Atlantic Office this one. It's different. My god, bro, this
Speaker 2: was busting, busting. You didn't tell me about this. I
Speaker 2: actually believe he's a normal guy. But yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: I think it just shows legacy media is still there.
Speaker 2: They're still in the billionaire culture. So they're not about
Speaker 2: to they're not about to point fingers and ship. Yeah.
Speaker 1: This guy, by the way, graduated from Harvard and currently
Speaker 1: is also a lecture in political science at Yale University.
Speaker 1: So it's really in touch with the people, the mainstream media,
Speaker 1: Ivy League, like that whole insular circle of people just
Speaker 1: cranking each other off and being like we're all we
Speaker 1: all get it right, Like we we can't tell the
Speaker 1: truth here, right. We know that there's an order two things,
Speaker 1: if you know what I'm saying, And it like ultimately
Speaker 1: comes down to fucking eugenics and being fascists, like being
Speaker 1: wealth fascists essentially.
Speaker 2: I wonder if they, like I can imagine they listen
Speaker 2: to Run the World by Beyonce and they who run
Speaker 2: like us, we love this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Carlan Crow is definitely like on his little stationary
Speaker 4: by pumping that in his ears, exercise bikes that with
Speaker 4: the little arms.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got the old timey like workout equipment from
Speaker 1: Nazi Germany's like a jiggle belt that like jingles your
Speaker 1: belly until the it's supposed to just like make this thing,
Speaker 1: make that mel off.
Speaker 2: He's like my gold kettle bell. It's it's from stolen
Speaker 2: teeth from Oh never mind, don't worry about it anyway.
Speaker 2: It weighs a ton.
Speaker 1: Though, all right, uh, from one billionaire to probably David
Speaker 1: Zzla is probably not a billionaire yet. And that's so, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're he might be on his way, which is why
Speaker 1: we're going to give him the dignity of talking about him.
Speaker 1: He delivered a commencement speech at his alma mater, bu.
Speaker 1: He is the Warner Brothers Discovery CEO who has done
Speaker 1: a lot of kind of fucked up shit and like
Speaker 1: started the trend of just cutting all sorts of yeah,
Speaker 1: like canceling a movie that had already been completed, canceling
Speaker 1: a bunch of shows that exist, the family department.
Speaker 3: Getting rid of the animation department.
Speaker 4: He came up with the Max idea of joining Discovery
Speaker 4: plus an HBO Max to just be Max Max, which
Speaker 4: is one of the worst branding choices and maybe the
Speaker 4: history of advertising.
Speaker 1: But the ads, they're really winning me over. Those ads
Speaker 1: are all over NBA.
Speaker 4: My my favorite part is when they're like all the
Speaker 4: TV you love and it's like the Wire, the Sopranos secession, and.
Speaker 3: Then they're just throwing ninety eight beyond.
Speaker 2: And International're like yeah, and I'm like, you know what,
Speaker 2: they're not wrong. I'm like, facts, I know all of
Speaker 2: those back.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So yeah.
Speaker 1: But so he didn't get very far into his speech,
Speaker 1: and in fact, people started booing even during his introduction.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: And there is just a constant ebb and flow of
Speaker 1: heckling throughout his twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: So yeah, let's uh, let's let's hear they'll listen to
Speaker 2: what I'll see what happens when they brought this man
Speaker 2: coming to the stage right now and then ring out.
Speaker 6: Mister, I have the honor to present David for Boston
Speaker 6: University's honor.
Speaker 2: Is he here?
Speaker 3: We go them?
Speaker 5: Wow?
Speaker 2: So uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And and the collaps are just the people on stage.
Speaker 2: Close to the microphone just being like, yeah, wow, it's
Speaker 2: really going across the squad man. You can hear that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he was definitely he was not. I love seeing that
Speaker 2: when like he's fucking out of touch. Wealthy people think
Speaker 2: they're about to be fucking welcomed by a chorus of cheers,
Speaker 2: and I was like, fuck you and.
Speaker 4: Just boo and then the professors in the background trying
Speaker 4: not to laugh. Those were my favorite, just looking at
Speaker 4: their knees with like a smile.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like when Fergie saying the national anthem at that
Speaker 2: one All Star game. Yeah, oh whoa say?
Speaker 4: Can you see people like I just like just don't don't, don't, don't,
Speaker 4: don't react, but yeah, he I don't know.
Speaker 1: People screamed, pay your writers, we don't want you here,
Speaker 1: and more to the point, shut.
Speaker 2: Up zaz Lab.
Speaker 3: That's a good chance.
Speaker 1: That's not even just while the strike is bigger than
Speaker 1: one studio, it's pretty easy to see why he is
Speaker 1: kind of being portrayed as the mascot for the bad
Speaker 1: guys here, not least which because his compensation last year
Speaker 1: was nearly two hundred and fifty million dollars and they
Speaker 1: are treating writers and.
Speaker 2: Creatives like shit just generally across the board. Well yeah,
Speaker 2: and also like when you think of how how rigid
Speaker 2: all the streamers are being about royalties too, Like maybe
Speaker 2: look at him and what he's presiding over. You're like, yeah, man,
Speaker 2: there's a lot of shit, a lot of roads are
Speaker 2: leading to you or you know that it works like yours.
Speaker 4: Well, a big part of him like taking these shows
Speaker 4: down is that you know, it is a tax right
Speaker 4: off or whatever, but it also stops them from playing
Speaker 4: paying residuals to writers and the actors, which is residual
Speaker 4: on TV. Oh, you'd make so much money broadcast residuals.
Speaker 4: For streaming, you may.
Speaker 3: Be lucky if you get like a fifty cent check.
Speaker 4: So it's already a thing where it's like the writers
Speaker 4: aren't making much money off of this, They're gonna fight
Speaker 4: to get more money on residuals. And his idea is just, well,
Speaker 4: if we just take the shows off, then you'll never
Speaker 4: get the residuals. And other networks are clearly following suit.
Speaker 4: So it's just like, yeah, zos, love like you, Fuck
Speaker 4: you right, fuck you for giving Hollywood this idea, because
Speaker 4: now every platform is doing it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: He later issued a statement after his commencement speech saying
Speaker 1: that he is immensely supportive of writers, but he there's
Speaker 1: also a recent interview in which he said that the
Speaker 1: thing that will end the strike is not a fair
Speaker 1: deal for writers, but rather a love of working.
Speaker 2: Get the fuck?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, come at us, right, We just love it
Speaker 4: so much that like, uh, even if I'm getting paid unfairly,
Speaker 4: I just gotta do it.
Speaker 3: I just love it. Love it, love it, love it,
Speaker 3: love it so much.
Speaker 2: Like Yeah, for the people that like are the own
Speaker 2: business owners, they are still so stuck in this mindset
Speaker 2: where they think, yeah, like everyone loves to toil. I
Speaker 2: don't understand, like I'm making money. They make a pittance
Speaker 2: that they can live off of and have their little
Speaker 2: bites of bread or whatever poor people eat, and it
Speaker 2: all starts working. I love that he thinks that the
Speaker 2: love of working is going to motivate people, because guess
Speaker 2: what if you can't support yourself, it means fuck all
Speaker 2: to work. But David, please, let's just let's just check
Speaker 2: in one more time with the students of Boston University,
Speaker 2: just so we can hear them. The looks on his.
Speaker 1: Face, by the way, like his mouth just turned into
Speaker 1: like a like completely horizontal line across when they started.
Speaker 4: Doing was oh yeah, yeah, Like he's also wearing ridiculous
Speaker 4: sunglasses like he does.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, because they're like polarized and mirrored. It looks
Speaker 2: like he got off like a fishing boat off the
Speaker 2: coast of Florida or something. Ye like the way that
Speaker 2: he's got these lines anyway, but let's.
Speaker 1: Think you're serving Hollywood, but he's actually serving yeah, like
Speaker 1: fishing charter a guy who just chartered a fishing boat.
Speaker 2: You're serving clearwater Florida, Broye and and you're at a
Speaker 2: boat party where Connor Cruise, Tom Cruise, his son is
Speaker 2: djaying that's.
Speaker 1: What well, also DJ what's his name? The Golden Goldman
Speaker 1: Sachs CEO.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, some people will be looking for a fight.
Speaker 1: Looking for a fight, and he gave thumbs up, like yeah,
Speaker 1: I get you, I get it. I suck, but don't
Speaker 1: be the one they find it with.
Speaker 2: Terrible some people's good qualities.
Speaker 6: Jack was lying. In my career, I've seen so many
Speaker 6: talented people jack tunities or jobs.
Speaker 2: Because they couldn't because it's such a weird way. He's
Speaker 2: gonna be like this because they asked for too much
Speaker 2: and negotiation.
Speaker 4: To too much because people weren't ready for their ideas.
Speaker 4: And it's like no, they were just very talented and smart,
Speaker 4: but they couldn't get along with me an asshole.
Speaker 2: Yeah, see when they said I was racist. You see
Speaker 2: you're being difficult now I'm not going to work with people.
Speaker 1: Will be looking for a fight, but don't give it
Speaker 1: to him, Like that's how he views conflict as like
Speaker 1: something you would be avoided and just like he's basically
Speaker 1: telling writers not to strike in his speech. Yeah, or
Speaker 1: just what your mindset needs to be to be a
Speaker 1: fucking like heinous, multi gazillion eira is to be like, dude,
Speaker 1: don't there will is basically there will be haters, right,
Speaker 1: just know that, but don't give them a reason to
Speaker 1: hate because you will become powerful enough or you can
Speaker 1: completely fuck the haters over, just so you know, just
Speaker 1: so you know, like somebody who just got this lucky
Speaker 1: giving a speech telling people like how to do it,
Speaker 1: and his speech is like you just gotta not push
Speaker 1: back when people are mean to you. Just don't know, baby.
Speaker 4: Take it and like just that's fine, and just don't
Speaker 4: be the person they're looking for a fight for, sir,
Speaker 4: Like you're the one.
Speaker 1: Yeahes the people that you work with.
Speaker 6: Figure out what you like about a person. There's always
Speaker 6: something and do what it takes to navigate their challenges.
Speaker 6: We all have them. The reality is most of us
Speaker 6: don't pay enough attention to our weaknesses.
Speaker 2: Okay, wow, yeah, you're saying a lot, all right, Okay,
Speaker 2: cool man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, Buddy.
Speaker 2: Dave, big d Yeah.
Speaker 1: There's also that Vanity Fair profile. I don't think we've
Speaker 1: covered yet, but there's like a Vanity Fair profile where
Speaker 1: they're like the head regular guy after fifteen years running Discovery,
Speaker 1: the media mogul for main Street opens up for main Street,
Speaker 1: opens up about his upcoming battle with Disney and Netflix.
Speaker 1: He's a reflection of his audience, says Nancy Pelosi. He's
Speaker 1: a regular guys.
Speaker 4: Nancy Pelosi, the most normal guy, just the most Nancy
Speaker 4: knows normal guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think my favorite part of that whole thing is
Speaker 4: there's like a story of someone, yeah, the fleabag story,
Speaker 4: where like David is on a yacht with all his
Speaker 4: friends and they put on one of his own properties.
Speaker 3: I think it's like flea.
Speaker 1: Bag, and then he's like flea bag, should we check
Speaker 1: it out?
Speaker 4: Which at this point came out like fucking what five
Speaker 4: years ago, Like this is so past the prime, right,
Speaker 4: And then there's this sex scene, and he truly is
Speaker 4: like stop everything, like pause. We either all have to
Speaker 4: decide we're turning this off or we're all just gonna sit,
Speaker 4: like sit silently and stare ahead and.
Speaker 2: Not look at each other. He sounds like a youth
Speaker 2: pastor trying to navigate that moment.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 1: What's the quote one The group found itself in the
Speaker 1: midst of a hot and heavy sex scene a minute
Speaker 1: into the first episode of Fleabag pause exclamation point. So
Speaker 1: I put my hand up, recalls as Love.
Speaker 2: I go whoa.
Speaker 1: So they stop it, and I said, Okay, here's the strategy.
Speaker 1: We're we either shut it off or we put it
Speaker 1: back on, and everybody only looks forward. We don't look
Speaker 1: at each other until it's over. It sounds like he
Speaker 1: was telling them not to look at him so he
Speaker 1: could jerk off. Wanted to jaf like everyone nobody looks
Speaker 1: at each other. Nobody when you hear something weird over here,
Speaker 1: you don't look over from the gy contact, which I've
Speaker 1: said about this whole trick.
Speaker 2: No eye contact, no eye contact.
Speaker 1: Don't look me, especially not when I'm jacking off to
Speaker 1: this scene that we're we're all.
Speaker 2: We made a fucking bout Kevin, eyes ahead, you come on, man,
Speaker 2: so weird. We don't strategy at each other.
Speaker 4: We don't look at each other during a which also
Speaker 4: the fleabag sex scenes like aren't sexy, No, Like they're
Speaker 4: all like.
Speaker 1: Awkward, uncomfortable. Whichell what that's the thing you could comment
Speaker 1: on after be like, man, that was awkward to be
Speaker 1: watching that with you my workmates.
Speaker 4: My workmates, he's like, we're all going to jack off
Speaker 4: to this, right, don't look at.
Speaker 2: Each other, don't look at me, because strategy is the
Speaker 2: operative we're here. I'm like, what are they? What is
Speaker 2: what is the shared game they are trying to achieve
Speaker 2: with said strategy?
Speaker 1: Just the CEO brain of thinking you have to say, okay,
Speaker 1: here's the stretch during sex.
Speaker 2: In his mind, he's like, he's like, David, you're getting
Speaker 2: a boner. You're getting a boner. Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Speaker 2: whoa whoa tell him to shut it off to him?
Speaker 2: Whoa pause, guys, whoa, whoa, whoa. Here we go, Okay,
Speaker 2: here's the strategy. What what you talk talking? Yeah?
Speaker 4: And I just need to know what it is like
Speaker 4: watching so many shows with him, Like how is he
Speaker 4: getting through Euphoria. I'd like, let me watch an episode
Speaker 4: of Euphoria with David Sasla.
Speaker 2: What's that strategy?
Speaker 3: What is the strategy, buddy?
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god, Yeah, it's it's it's terrifying. And again,
Speaker 2: it's so terrifying to think that these are the kinds
Speaker 2: of people that are at the helm of these massive
Speaker 2: networks that make the decisions that come down what kind
Speaker 2: of creativity we see like manifest on the screen some
Speaker 2: guy who is so like sexually repressed or whatever the
Speaker 2: fuck's going on here that he has to go whoa
Speaker 2: pause everyone, look ahead, No, no, no, no, no, oh
Speaker 2: my god, what did I get into with this HBO crap?
Speaker 3: Like right, like what what did you think you were buying?
Speaker 4: But even with that, it's like you have Discovery Plus,
Speaker 4: which is like, you know a lot of your shows
Speaker 4: are like ninety Day Fiance, You, Me and My Ex
Speaker 4: like that do Darcy Darcy and Stacey where they're just.
Speaker 3: Like half naked all the time.
Speaker 2: Especially now like where they're like leaning into showing more
Speaker 2: like intimate scenes and it gets like way more salacious
Speaker 2: to the fund. Yeah, I've been more uncomfortable with certain
Speaker 2: depictions of like sexual encounters with like cast members on
Speaker 2: ninety Day Fiance than I ever have been with anything
Speaker 2: like normal, like screen.
Speaker 3: Than Fleaback or anything.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like ninety Day of the Single Life when they
Speaker 4: had deb and that old guy just like straight up
Speaker 4: like groping each other and.
Speaker 3: Making out on screen. Oh, come on, that's come on.
Speaker 2: Pause, yeah, pause, here's the strategy we need to strategize.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hit myself in the head with a hammer
Speaker 2: and don't call an ambulance for a least fifteen minutes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's that's just mainstream America. That's just he's
Speaker 4: a regular, regular guy.
Speaker 1: The regular guy, says me, Nancy, one hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 1: ice cream freezer, Pelosi Pulos. We gotta have a second
Speaker 1: freezer for your ice cream, right, Yeah, it's gotta be
Speaker 1: that drawer kind.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna open like a French.
Speaker 3: Like that's stupid.
Speaker 4: You want to you want to slide out, you want
Speaker 4: to see all those Jenny flavors that are fourteen dollars
Speaker 4: of pine or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yea, and yeah, it's all good. Look good. He's normal.
Speaker 2: He's normal, folks, He's normal. He eats Briar's ice cream. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he's normal normal.
Speaker 1: Be interesting to see if he like doubles down now
Speaker 1: if he's like, my guess CEO mentality is like this
Speaker 1: is this is his villain origin story. And he starts like.
Speaker 2: The White House White House Correspondence dinner.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he starts like joining the Elon Musk chats that
Speaker 1: he's been inviting him to where he's.
Speaker 2: Been talking already.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, yeah, if he's not already.
Speaker 2: But again it's not just even this, like look at
Speaker 2: where because he's also in charge of CNN and like
Speaker 2: look at what happened with that Trump town hall and
Speaker 2: like how much they're trying to court Donald Trump back
Speaker 2: onto CNN for their just for ratings. Ratings.
Speaker 1: Baby, we made the news and that is our job
Speaker 1: as people who cover the news.
Speaker 2: I heard the quote, make the news. The quote discord
Speaker 2: makes my Dick Hoarde is actually a David Saslov quote.
Speaker 2: It's actually not Roman Roy.
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, amazing.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
Speaker 1: and we're back. And so Adidas has revealed their strategy
Speaker 1: for selling off all right, here's the strategy strategy. All right,
Speaker 1: So Panye was the Kanemit pause the Kanye interview. I said,
Speaker 1: all right, here's the strategy.
Speaker 2: Folks. We either pretend it didn't happen, or we watch
Speaker 2: it in feign ignorance after the found it went with both. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So yeah, after belatedly cutting ties with Kanye, Adidas is
Speaker 1: stuck with a ton of Yeasy merch and we're worried
Speaker 1: that they'd lose a lot of money if they couldn't
Speaker 1: find a way to repurpose all the tainted products. And
Speaker 1: their solutions seemed to be just like to sell the
Speaker 1: leftover easy sneakers, which apparently they're valuing it one billion dollars.
Speaker 1: We'll see what the market it says about that. I
Speaker 1: don't think anybody wants to.
Speaker 2: Be wearing I mean I've gone on the I've been
Speaker 2: on the Yeasy subreddit where fans of the shoes like
Speaker 2: all congregate and they it's like manna from heaven time
Speaker 2: for these people.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because I mean they're just shoes.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, if you were, if you were fucking rock,
Speaker 2: you never gave a fuck to be Yeah, you're so
Speaker 2: mesmerized by his you're not letting go of that because
Speaker 2: and also, I mean, I think every easy thing i've
Speaker 2: seen is ugly as hell.
Speaker 3: So if you're wearing that, like you're just into him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a good way to like out yourself.
Speaker 2: If someone will like not get great sense or can't
Speaker 2: read like the tone of society at the moment, they're like,
Speaker 2: you are wearing air himmlers, Okay, do that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, so they're valuing a at worth one
Speaker 1: billion dollars. Proceeds will be donated to various anti racism groups,
Speaker 1: including the Anti Defamation League.
Speaker 4: They could Yeah, so it's that's gonna make Kanye angry,
Speaker 4: you know where they're going to give a solid what
Speaker 4: five percent?
Speaker 2: Problem? Yeah, that's the thing. Not all the money is going,
Speaker 2: not all of it. Portion of I've seen portion. I've
Speaker 2: seen the word chunk.
Speaker 1: I love when a significant amount will be donating. Okay,
Speaker 1: the direct quote, how.
Speaker 2: About you assign a dollar amount to that word because
Speaker 2: it's a little nebulous family, which am talking here?
Speaker 4: Let's talk a percentage of sales instead of a chunk
Speaker 4: a set of what are we doing here, Adidas?
Speaker 2: Yeah right exactly. They're like, well, actually, after costs and things,
Speaker 2: so like wait, hold on now, what how just how
Speaker 2: much money are you giving. That's the thing I'm really
Speaker 2: curious by because if they're part of their calculate this
Speaker 2: is we're about to take a l We're about to
Speaker 2: have to eat a billion dollars worth of product that
Speaker 2: we can't sell. Some of that has to be like
Speaker 2: how much can we make to be okay with it?
Speaker 1: Not?
Speaker 2: Well, the best version is just to give this away
Speaker 2: and then you know this, this is how we make
Speaker 2: amends for basically looking like we stand by this bullshit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because they're still basically making money off of these
Speaker 4: products designed by an anti Semitic person who probably will
Speaker 4: still get some money out of this. Like I don't
Speaker 4: see a way where they sell all this stuff at
Speaker 4: a discount and Kanye is not getting like some kind
Speaker 4: of percent of that right, Like yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: I wonder if like a lot.
Speaker 1: Of the negotiations, like the reason it took so long
Speaker 1: for them to come up with this here's the strategy,
Speaker 1: was because they were trying to get him to sign
Speaker 1: off on like a strategy like this. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: we have to make it look like we are not racist, man, Like,
Speaker 1: come on, how we lost.
Speaker 4: The Z At the same time, they cut their deal
Speaker 4: with Beyonce and Ivy Park, so they they just maybe
Speaker 4: they hate black people, and when are they gonna discount
Speaker 4: all the Ivy Park. That's what I'm that's the sale
Speaker 4: I'm waiting for.
Speaker 1: Really, the last thing I heard about Ivy Park was
Speaker 1: that it was like dropping and everybody was like claiming.
Speaker 4: Oh no, no, Like there was a big Wall Street
Speaker 4: Journal article that was like, yeah, Ivy Park does not sell.
Speaker 4: Adidas has lost like billions of dollars on this deal
Speaker 4: with Beyonce because no, like none of the like collections
Speaker 4: she put out ever recouped the money they spent to
Speaker 4: like do it and promote it.
Speaker 2: Oh right, right right yeah, And.
Speaker 4: People were just like there was no clear idea of
Speaker 4: like what these clothes were even for. Like people were
Speaker 4: just like, when do you see people out wearing Ivy Park.
Speaker 4: It's like gym ware and it doesn't make sense. There
Speaker 4: were a lot of drops happening that I had, like
Speaker 4: very similar clothing, but it would just be different patterns,
Speaker 4: I know, because I would buy all of them, right,
Speaker 4: and I would just be like, oh cool, these are
Speaker 4: the same pain it's just instead of like pink, you
Speaker 4: know Ivy Park logos, they're orange Ivy Park logos. Okay, Beyonce, Sure,
Speaker 4: here's my eighty dollars, right, and they ended the deal.
Speaker 4: They were just like we're done, and everyone is just like, well,
Speaker 4: when is that gonna go on discount? When are we
Speaker 4: seeing Ivy Park?
Speaker 2: We're actually going to burn the product?
Speaker 4: Yeah, and now she has like a designer deal that
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'll never be able to afford that, but like,
Speaker 4: where is my Ivy Park and the Idida's like outlet mall.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right exactly coming to a ross near you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Oh I have that cowprint skirt too, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: but I love that. That was my favorite collection. She
Speaker 4: did a whole like denhim cowboy cowprint collection that was
Speaker 4: like the peak. I think that's maybe the only one that,
Speaker 4: like legit sold out and had good sales. And then
Speaker 4: after that it was just downhill and people saying like
Speaker 4: where do I wear denim chaps Beyonce?
Speaker 1: Right, and like that's also not what I look for
Speaker 1: from Adidas necessarily.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like denim. Yeah. Well I think that's the
Speaker 2: other thing too, is like, I mean, look, she's a capitalist.
Speaker 2: Her and jay Z have said as much. They know
Speaker 2: they're they're there to secure baggage, like shout out to
Speaker 2: them for buying a two hundred million dollars house in
Speaker 2: Malibu cash money over the weekend.
Speaker 4: Wow only lines they cross his dollar signs and also
Speaker 4: pickt lines.
Speaker 2: Yea told Marmont, Yeah, no problem, wasn't that, wasn't that him?
Speaker 2: Wasn't that that was jay Z.
Speaker 4: And then back in like two thousand and seven, it
Speaker 4: came out that they were like, the Grammys were happening
Speaker 4: during the last writers strike, and they were like, hey, musicians,
Speaker 4: you shouldn't perform, like the Grammys aren't going to get
Speaker 4: a waiver to do it. And Beyonce was like, I
Speaker 4: just straight up came out and was like, I don't
Speaker 4: care about the strike. I will perform at the Grammys
Speaker 4: no matter what.
Speaker 2: I'm Beyonce Ible.
Speaker 3: It was just like you did not have to say this, why?
Speaker 2: Yeah? That why?
Speaker 4: And like the strike ended the week before the Grammy,
Speaker 4: so it was fine, but I just love that she was.
Speaker 3: Like, just half way, I don't care.
Speaker 1: Hey, just in case it was unclear to anyone, Oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't care. Yeah, I will bring up to a
Speaker 1: ligne nobody And I mean Disney is streaming, is purging
Speaker 1: a bunch of streaming content, and I feel like we
Speaker 1: would be remiss if we did not use this opportunity
Speaker 1: Ashley right to ask you, like, what so what we're
Speaker 1: losing Willow, We're losing why the Last Man, We're losing
Speaker 1: the Turner and Hooch reboots the ask Jeff Goldbloom or
Speaker 1: something with like.
Speaker 4: The World according to Jeff The World according to which
Speaker 4: came out at a weird time because it was also
Speaker 4: when there were like kind of some cancel hymn things
Speaker 4: coming out with like young women being like He's kind
Speaker 4: of weird, and so that show didn't get a lot
Speaker 4: of promotion. But I think what a lot of people
Speaker 4: are missing is that there are a lot of Hulu
Speaker 4: shows that are being purged in this Disney Hulu blend,
Speaker 4: because that's basically what's happening is they're gonna combine Disney
Speaker 4: Plus and Hulu into one app. And then Disney said, well, Hulu,
Speaker 4: you have to get rid of your like dirty stuff
Speaker 4: that isn't Disney aligned. So they got rid of the Premise,
Speaker 4: which is a really funny show that bj Novak did
Speaker 4: that looks like gun Control. There's like the best episode
Speaker 4: is about this guy who designs the world's best like
Speaker 4: anal dildo, And obviously Disney was like, no, thank you,
Speaker 4: but if you get the chance to see it before
Speaker 4: it's taken off forever on like May twenty sixth or
Speaker 4: the twenty fourth, go watch all the premise. They also
Speaker 4: took off Maggie, which was like a sweet little rom com,
Speaker 4: you know, modern day girl dating. Same with Everything's Trash,
Speaker 4: which was Phoebe Robinson and was basically about like a trashy, dirty,
Speaker 4: slutty black girl. We don't get that kind of representation,
Speaker 4: so it felt really cool. And I think they also
Speaker 4: took off oh what was it it was the premise Maggie, Oh,
Speaker 4: and Dolphace, which that one was shocking because Hulu fought
Speaker 4: to keep Dolphace canceled High Fidelity, which people that was
Speaker 4: like the TV version of the movie had so many
Speaker 4: Zoe Kravitz in it. Everyone was like, this is gonna
Speaker 4: be a hit, but it was so expensive. They were like,
Speaker 4: we don't want that. We're gonna focus our money on Dollphace.
Speaker 4: They made two more seasons. It had like Cat Dennings.
Speaker 4: It was pretty funny, and now they're just like, screw that.
Speaker 4: Take it all off the internet. No one can ever
Speaker 4: see it again.
Speaker 2: So yeah, and we're out.
Speaker 1: It reminds me of the latest season of Barry where
Speaker 1: they like debut that series on like some streaming platform
Speaker 1: and it's like number one for a night and then
Speaker 1: the next day they cancel it.
Speaker 2: They cancel the algo, the right al go.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it is a lot of this is like
Speaker 4: shows they didn't promote, like I know, people didn't hear
Speaker 4: about Maggie, and so it's like you could still promote
Speaker 4: these things and have people watch them and have them
Speaker 4: become cult hits, but then guess what, they get popular
Speaker 4: and you're paying residuals to people because people are watching
Speaker 4: these shows and that's not what they want.
Speaker 3: So right, yeah, just yeah, and it sucks.
Speaker 4: I have so many friends who have written on these
Speaker 4: shows and then also wrote on like the HBO shows
Speaker 4: that are coming down, and now I have multiple friends
Speaker 4: who are like the last three shows I've worked on,
Speaker 4: you can't watch anywhere.
Speaker 2: They don't exist, right, they don't.
Speaker 4: Exist like you. They're not on illegal streaming sites usually
Speaker 4: unless they kind of were big enough. I think doll
Speaker 4: Face because it had multiple seasons you could probably watch
Speaker 4: on an illegal site. But like the premise, nobody paid
Speaker 4: attention to that show when it came out. Nobody knew
Speaker 4: bj Novak did a whole show.
Speaker 2: I felt like I only knew about it because you
Speaker 2: were tweeting about it. Initial.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was the only person tweeting and talking about it.
Speaker 3: And it's really good.
Speaker 4: It has Tracy Ellis, ross, Iowed Barry like so many
Speaker 4: good people in it. And I thought for sure, like, oh,
Speaker 4: the fx bj Novacs, it's going to ride that wave
Speaker 4: of like the Bear and all of this, And instead
Speaker 4: it's you know, them just kind of taking away shows
Speaker 4: that also make the history and culture of these dating
Speaker 4: apps or of dating apps, of these streaming apps, and
Speaker 4: of what people are interested in unclear. When you just
Speaker 4: take these shows off, you don't see like, oh, there
Speaker 4: was a resurgence of like female led rom coms during
Speaker 4: this time where we got dollphase, high fidelity, everything's trash,
Speaker 4: And instead it's just, oh, it never happened. And in
Speaker 4: the future when it's like, oh, why aren't there these
Speaker 4: like female led comedies, why is everything so male focused,
Speaker 4: and it's like, oh, because they erased it.
Speaker 2: Right, they're gonna be like, did nothing get made between
Speaker 2: twenty twenty and twenty twenty three. Yeah, it's just like,
Speaker 2: actually everything got made.
Speaker 3: Yeah, everything got made and just was erased.
Speaker 4: And obviously a lot of the shows that are getting
Speaker 4: cut are shows that feature a lot of diversity that
Speaker 4: come from people of color. A lot of the HBO
Speaker 4: Max shows that got cut had to do with, you know,
Speaker 4: Gordida Chronicles, Latina Showrunners, and I think with Disney, the
Speaker 4: biggest thing that shocked people was that they wanted to
Speaker 4: remove their documentary Herald, which is about the guy who
Speaker 4: basically created The Little Mermaid and made Disney like this
Speaker 4: huge animated movie like hit Destination Studio.
Speaker 3: He was gay, and then Disney.
Speaker 4: Was like, with the Little Mermaid reboot coming out, was
Speaker 4: like take it off, we don't want.
Speaker 1: The new Little Mermaid reboot is dedicated to the memory
Speaker 1: of Howard Ashman. And then how the documentary Howard was
Speaker 1: is being taken off. They they reversed course because they
Speaker 1: recognized this as a bad look.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so many people are like, do you really want
Speaker 4: to get rid of the one documentary about a gay
Speaker 4: guy right before Pride Month? And also when you just
Speaker 4: put a movie out decaded to him.
Speaker 2: Right right, dedicated to his memory, with.
Speaker 4: Which we would like to erase because we are to
Speaker 4: the memory of him, all the memory, not to anything
Speaker 4: that could hurt our stock price. If you know, some
Speaker 4: conservative see gay in our content.
Speaker 2: Right exactly? I told you they're anyway. But yeah, good
Speaker 2: luck to them as they're their ongoing fight against ron Santis,
Speaker 2: Like we're like Jesus Christ, that battle where everyone loses.
Speaker 2: But hey, we'll see where that ends up too.
Speaker 1: Ashley, such a pleasure having you back on the show.
Speaker 1: Where can people find you and follow you?
Speaker 4: Follow me at the Ashley Ray on all the platforms, Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, whatever.

Speaker 2: Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying?
Speaker 4: Oh, I gotta give it to the randal Scandal documentary
Speaker 4: that just came out on Hulu today. It is about
Speaker 4: Randall from the vander Pump Rules universe. I know everyone
Speaker 4: is talking about the scandalval issue in that whole affair,
Speaker 4: but the randal scandal is about La LA's husband band
Speaker 4: who like cheated on her, was super abusive to all
Speaker 4: of his assistants, and then it comes out that he
Speaker 4: like stole money from fifty cent and was part of
Speaker 4: the whole like elder abuse against Bruce Willis, and also
Speaker 4: is involved in vander Pump Rules.
Speaker 3: And I had no idea about any of this and
Speaker 3: it very good.
Speaker 4: Ough just makes the vander Pump Rules watching experience even better.
Speaker 2: The Randall scandal, Wow.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the Randall scandal.
Speaker 1: Miles, where can people find you? Is there a working
Speaker 1: media you've been enjoying?

Speaker 2: sleep with that on my mind. Also, Sophia Alexandra on
Speaker 2: four to twenty fiance. Right now we're talking about love
Speaker 2: is blind because I'm catching up since the baby, I've
Speaker 2: been so behind, but I got to get get I'm
Speaker 2: getting it all in. I want to be able to talk,
Speaker 2: got to be able to participate in the discourse because actually.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oway, can I also say, and if you want
Speaker 4: more TV talk for me, please listen to TV, I
Speaker 4: say on Earwolf wherever.
Speaker 2: You listen to pocket, Yes, exactly.
Speaker 3: The most they pay me the people to say that
Speaker 3: to people.
Speaker 2: Look, we smoke weed. It's it's easy to not get
Speaker 2: caught talking about TV. Like every week TV, I say, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's what I do, right right, that par that's what
Speaker 2: I do. Uh And then let's see. Uh do I
Speaker 2: like work of media? I don't think. So what did
Speaker 2: I see? I saw something recently?
Speaker 1: No, no, Miles saw all your tweets and found them lacking.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was not entertained even a little timeline.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what can I.
Speaker 1: Say at Extra Napkins tweeted a picture of a big,
Speaker 1: like family sized Eminem MS package and it says it's
Speaker 1: just like on the side, it has the blue eminem
Speaker 1: with sunglasses on it with like sticking his finger up
Speaker 1: in the air like he's vibing out or something, and
Speaker 1: it says electronic music brings the energy for a summer
Speaker 1: full of fun. And Extra Napkins tweeted, why is Eminem's
Speaker 1: saying this to me? That?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: That's that was for thirty years. That was the entire
Speaker 1: marketing strategy of Pepsi was just to be like, we
Speaker 1: all like music, right, Music's fucking cool anyways, drink pepsi?
Speaker 2: Fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 2: Hey, are you talking to me right now? Music?
Speaker 3: Drink PEPs You should drink Pepsi.
Speaker 1: But I think they gave up on that strategy because
Speaker 1: they no longer had the Super Bowl shows this year,
Speaker 1: So I'm wondering, Oh yeah, maybe maybe Eminem's is trying
Speaker 1: to step in and be like, we like to dance, right,
Speaker 1: And when you think of dance music, think of Eminem Think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you're turning up on Molly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they are like.
