Speaker 1: list is interesting because I've seen these fuckers come and go,

Speaker 1: I remember that when it was on the Biggest Risers list.
Speaker 1: Now look at you you know, look at you, Jaden,
Speaker 1: Look at you, Johnny. Okay, we're naming their kids Johnny,
Speaker 1: like on their birth certificate, Johnny Raiden. I guess what
Speaker 1: the Mortal Kombat Yeah, the new Mortal Kombat movie sucked.
Speaker 2: Depending.
Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know which one you're into,
Speaker 3: but I like how there's both like those all of them.
Speaker 2: Those are two Mortal Kombat names.
Speaker 3: There was Johnny Cage yeah, and then Rayden so then
Speaker 3: oh that scorpion subzero.
Speaker 2: Please tell me Kano isn't there?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: Goro and Torow.
Speaker 1: I can't believe Motoro's on here? Man Reptile, Uh, Brian
Speaker 1: the Editor, Reptile, Brady this here, Ronan Bradley Clayton. Uh,
Speaker 1: these are these are droppers, all right. So let's look
Speaker 1: at the names that are blazing in twenty twenty four. Uh,
Speaker 1: nothing really surprising here. Olivia, Isabella, Amelia, Sophia, Emma, Charlotte, Ava, Ellie, Aurora, Luna.
Speaker 2: These are a lot of vowel enders. Yeah that that.
Speaker 3: You wouldn't fault Donald Trump for mistaking any of these
Speaker 3: names because they start with.
Speaker 2: A vowel and end with a vowel.
Speaker 3: In a lot of instances, so you know he's not
Speaker 3: He's not in cognitive decline just like Nancy Pelosi and.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he could use all these Aurora and Amelia,
Speaker 1: but basically the same name name. Anyway, boy names blazing
Speaker 1: in twenty four they have that Noah Liam, Liam's been
Speaker 1: up here, Oliver, Elijah, Matteo, Lucas, ash Ezrah Michael and
Speaker 1: Ja Michael and Jay. I love that it ends with
Speaker 1: like two names from the fucking Bible that have just been.
Speaker 3: Just letting you know, man, the Good Lord still shining
Speaker 3: down on us no matter what.
Speaker 2: The Good Book doing its thing.
Speaker 1: The Good Lord giveth and taketh away names on the
Speaker 1: Blazing Momentum list. Yeah, speaking of Blazing Momentum, Biden and
Speaker 1: Trump are they both won in New Hampshire. Nikki Haley
Speaker 1: said she's not going down without a fight. That pissed
Speaker 1: off Trump pretty badly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, who has mister, I refuse to go down without
Speaker 3: a fight for everything.
Speaker 2: But he's like, this asshole needs to fuking figure it.
Speaker 2: And it's like, just, uh, I'm assuming she's.
Speaker 1: Gonna like stick around until we get an official ruling
Speaker 1: from the Supreme Court.
Speaker 2: Right have they ruled her game?
Speaker 3: Her long game is I'm gonna just wait this dude
Speaker 3: out because you never.
Speaker 1: Know, you just never know, you just never know, don't know.
Speaker 3: It could be the cognitive incline, it could be the
Speaker 3: ninety one felonies.
Speaker 2: Something might catch up.
Speaker 3: But I think also too, like it's until all the
Speaker 3: delegates are actually you know, allocated, like you know, she
Speaker 3: can stay in it for a minute. The next thing,
Speaker 3: the next big one is going to be South Carolina.
Speaker 3: But like again, the polls aren't great. I think a
Speaker 3: lot of people were like her. One shot to maybe
Speaker 3: begin to craft like a narrative or seemingly seem like
Speaker 3: the momentum was moving in the right direction would have
Speaker 3: been to win in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1: This was her mom's spaghetti moment, and yeah, it was
Speaker 1: just all over her shirt and yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: She's nervous, but on the surface she looked calm and ready,
Speaker 3: but didn't didn't work out quite that way.
Speaker 1: It's mom's spaghetti.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he wrote down whole crowd mom spaghetti, Mom
Speaker 3: spaghetti Haley. The campaign rolls on, but again it's really
Speaker 3: going to be a matter of like our donor is
Speaker 3: gonna stop doning doning? Do you hear that, Yeah, the
Speaker 3: don the donning party.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think she I mean, we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2: I just don't. I think most people are like, it's
Speaker 2: probably a wrap.
Speaker 3: And then again, Biden's name write and name campaign worked out,
Speaker 3: So I mean, nothing, nothing really, nothing really surprising.
Speaker 1: Here, nothing surprising. My prediction that he was going to
Speaker 1: like have a poor showing because he had to be
Speaker 1: a writing candidate and uh, you know people would use
Speaker 1: that as an excuse did not come to pass. He's
Speaker 1: still won pretty handily. So it's two. We thought it was.
Speaker 1: Haley is sticking around, not She's not going to take
Speaker 1: Trump out like electorally, She's sticking around in case something
Speaker 1: else does league yeah or yeah.
Speaker 2: Judicially she said this thing.
Speaker 3: He said, the party that's first to ditch their eighty
Speaker 3: year old candidate is going to win the presidential election.
Speaker 1: Wow, Nicky might have to start taking your text again.
Speaker 2: Girl. Yeah, what's up? John? You heard you? Like the
Speaker 2: spice I got coming out of my mouth? You know
Speaker 2: what I mean?
Speaker 1: John? You have to listen to.
Speaker 3: This seriously, John, did you hear the fucking burn? I
Speaker 3: just laid down on Trump and Byron.
Speaker 2: On board for fifty bucks.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The robo call, I guess is not going to
Speaker 1: end up being a story, but it is. We did
Speaker 1: get our first instance of like an AI robocall with
Speaker 1: as with a lot of examples of AI stuff that
Speaker 1: we've seen to this point, it was not like very
Speaker 1: impressive technologically, like just the writing was bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So basically they took a Joe Biden voice that I'm
Speaker 1: guessing was somewhat convincing and had it say, hey, voting
Speaker 1: this Tuesday only enables the Republicans in their quest to
Speaker 1: elect Donald Trump. Again, your vote makes a difference in November,
Speaker 1: not this Tuesday.
Speaker 2: Jack. Let let the man speak for himself here.
Speaker 3: Let's say Joe Byron, oh, you got it, digital digital,
Speaker 3: digital Joe By. Let's hear from him and see if
Speaker 3: your grandparents would fall for this.
Speaker 4: You know the value of voting democratic on our vote count.
Speaker 4: It's important that you save your vote for the November election.
Speaker 4: We'll need your help an electing Democrats up and down
Speaker 4: the ticket.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, analytics sounds like shit, Miles, Yeah, is bad,
Speaker 3: but wow, also believe because it sounds like when Joe
Speaker 3: Biden has like low energy though.
Speaker 2: Too, and he's kind of like getting through it. But yeah,
Speaker 2: this is my larkey you got the delivery is so flat,
Speaker 2: all right, Joe, Yeah, all right, robo Joe, But you didn't.
Speaker 1: People are saying, like the president of Public Citizen declared
Speaker 1: that the political deep fake moment is here, and Democrats
Speaker 1: wanted the dj to investigate the calls to see who
Speaker 1: might have done it, because we don't we don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but people were talking about the future of this. You know,
Speaker 1: the FCC has been a little slow to take action
Speaker 1: on the issue. One thing that people think might actually
Speaker 1: be good at combating this is basically an AI system,
Speaker 1: a program called robo Halt Robo Halt Halt shit just
Speaker 1: robocops straight up. But it's more. It's actually more like
Speaker 1: the Blade Runner test. It's an a virtual assistant that
Speaker 1: can answer phone calls from unknown numbers and ask it
Speaker 1: questions to determine whether or not the call is legit
Speaker 1: or not before sending it through. So yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: that that makes sense to me, Like a you know.
Speaker 3: This also just feels like some like the perfect thing
Speaker 3: for the AI induitially is like, you know, the only
Speaker 3: way to fight AI MOI dude.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so.
Speaker 1: We're basically headed for a world where phone calls basically
Speaker 1: have a capture process on them, And do you ever
Speaker 1: fail at captures?
Speaker 3: I have occasionally it's weird, like especially when it's like yo,
Speaker 3: click all the depictions of like a street light.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or so the one I get is like that
Speaker 1: it's multiple boxes on a picture of like a guy
Speaker 1: on a motorcycle, and they're like select all the boxes
Speaker 1: that have a motorcycle in it, and I don't know,
Speaker 1: like there's one with like a shoulder of a guy
Speaker 1: riding a motorcycle. Well, but so that's not a motorcycle, right,
Speaker 1: But like I've tried it. I've tried it both ways,
Speaker 1: and I've not gotten it.
Speaker 2: Like it's very you know what you mean.
Speaker 3: Because sometimes it'll be like, well, that's the corner of
Speaker 3: the street light is in this one. The main attract,
Speaker 3: the real light up part is in this right, And
Speaker 3: they'll be like, nah, you fucking robo fuck get out
Speaker 3: of here, and I'm.
Speaker 1: Like try robot asshole, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Give me another one.
Speaker 3: The other one, Like I prefer the one that's like
Speaker 3: slide the puzzle piece into place.
Speaker 2: Yes, that one I'm acing every time.
Speaker 1: I'm so good at that I used to brag so
Speaker 1: much about how good I was. It captures.
Speaker 2: Oh, man, I used to be things. Man, Oh do
Speaker 2: here here, Grandma? Give me that real quick? Was this
Speaker 2: knock that ship out? I ain't no robot. Hey, you
Speaker 2: didn't raise no robot, Grandma? At least you know that.
Speaker 1: Anyways, it looks like we're headed for more of the same. Okay,
Speaker 1: although there's been some like Drudge, the Drudge Report, the
Speaker 1: kind of you know, right wing link aggregator that is
Speaker 1: still extremely popular somehow, is like really reporting on a
Speaker 1: lot of pulling that seems to suggest not reporting on
Speaker 1: just reposting a lot of pulling that suggests that like
Speaker 1: Trump might be a more trouble than we think. Who
Speaker 1: knows that that's true, but.
Speaker 3: Well yeah, the thing that has really been that a
Speaker 3: lot of people pointed out was like this sort of
Speaker 3: polling in Iowa and in New Hampshire of people who
Speaker 3: are Haley supporters are like, I'm in no fucking universe
Speaker 3: do I vote for Trump?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Whether that means they go to whoever, like a third
Speaker 3: party candidate or sit it out or whatever remains to
Speaker 3: be seen. But like, I don't know, Like it's like
Speaker 3: with polling. It's like, Okay, I'll believe it when I
Speaker 3: see it, and that he is not actually being elected
Speaker 3: in a normal way.
Speaker 2: But yeah, who knows.
Speaker 3: That's a lot of people are like, there's a lot
Speaker 3: of red flags in that win for Trump. It's like,
Speaker 3: how many times have we been saying there's a lot
Speaker 3: of red flags Trump? Like, I come on, now, we can't.
Speaker 1: We can't. We simply can't. We mustn't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just start. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think like the New York Times today put out
Speaker 3: a piece it's like, we're normalizing Donald Trump again, And
Speaker 3: I'm like, is that a critical piece or an announcement?
Speaker 1: Hey, guys, get in loser. We're normalizing Donald Trump again again?
Speaker 2: What are we doing?
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back
Speaker 1: and talk streaming wars. And we're back Netflix. We've talked
Speaker 1: about this being a process that started end of last year.
Speaker 1: It seemed like a lot of the other streamers were
Speaker 1: giving up and being like, we need money now, we
Speaker 1: like money yesterday. So they're licensing all their shit back
Speaker 1: to Netflix and no longer trying to create these other platforms,
Speaker 1: and we might be headed back to a world where
Speaker 1: you just need the one streaming service. It's Netflix, and
Speaker 1: it seems to be like so they just announced their
Speaker 1: Q four results and it was even better than people expected. God,
Speaker 1: like they just have all the all the shit now.
Speaker 2: They've got everything.
Speaker 3: And also like their exclusive shows or whatever, this stat
Speaker 3: was crazy in terms of streaming. They had the number
Speaker 3: one show on streaming forty eight out of fifty two
Speaker 3: weeks last year. Yeah, so as much as like when
Speaker 3: the beginning, we're like, oh, oh, Max is pulling up
Speaker 3: with HBO's catalog, cut to Sex and the City is
Speaker 3: now reportedly going to be on Netflix in its entirety.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're like, oh.
Speaker 3: Shit, that's like when you start seeing the other networks
Speaker 3: and you know, studios begin to be like yeah, man,
Speaker 3: well license that shit to net Flix.
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, so you admit it. You admit it,
Speaker 2: So you admit it.
Speaker 3: It's a problem, or at the very least you're realizing
Speaker 3: it's better that, like you're saying, you just have cash
Speaker 3: on hand from the licensing fees and to be like we're.
Speaker 2: Gonna grind it out against netfather. Fuck they were fucked. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Some of the big hits for Netflix this past year
Speaker 1: that are in no way like Netflix Originals or the
Speaker 1: Super Mario Brothers movie Young Sheldon Suits obviously, which started
Speaker 1: on USA, The Batman, Dune Ballers, Band of Brothers. I
Speaker 1: didn't realize. So Paramount Plus has basically thrown into the
Speaker 1: towel or Paramount because Yellowstone is now on Netflix.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a bad looks bad when you're like.
Speaker 2: This is the one thing I got and I gave
Speaker 2: it to that don't have any money, Please do you
Speaker 2: want our golden goose of Yellowstone?
Speaker 3: And I think that's the thing is now everyone's like, well,
Speaker 3: we still don't know what the downstream hahaha. Unintended effects
Speaker 3: are going to be for these other platforms, because like
Speaker 3: if if you the whole thing was being like and
Speaker 3: you can only get it on WB streamers or whatever,
Speaker 3: and now everything's on Netflix, then what is the point.
Speaker 2: And I don't know if that's like a long.
Speaker 3: Term strategy where they're like, yeah, we'll just get through
Speaker 3: this next five years and hope people won't completely abandon
Speaker 3: their nine stream package that they currently have.
Speaker 2: So I don't know.
Speaker 3: It's it seems like it's beginning to sort of stabilize
Speaker 3: in the sense that Netflix is just being like, yeah,
Speaker 3: this is what we've been doing. In case you guys
Speaker 3: forgot how breaking bad bleuw up.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, it's like good for consumers, I
Speaker 1: guess in the sense that like in the short term,
Speaker 1: in the sense that like all these shows are gonna
Speaker 1: be there, Like even Disney seems to be giving up.
Speaker 1: They're going to license Lost and Gray's Anatomy to Netflix,
Speaker 1: which those are like massive ABC property that are I
Speaker 1: could really see Lost blowing up again.
Speaker 2: Oh dude, I'm yeah. Has gen Z discovered Lost yet?
Speaker 1: They're about to If they haven't, the.
Speaker 3: Way they would go, I wonder if they'll be like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, like fucking John Locke is.
Speaker 2: Baby girl, so baby girl, baby girl. John looks so
Speaker 2: baby girl. Jack is cringe as fuck, and Sawyer. I
Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know how I feel about it.
Speaker 2: I'm just the jury's out.
Speaker 1: But then named me after Jack from Lost. That's how
Speaker 1: I got my name.
Speaker 2: That's oh my name.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you've ever heard of Jack Shepherd.
Speaker 3: He's a doctor from Lost, but that's my namesake.
Speaker 1: My full name is doctor Jack Shephard from Lost.
Speaker 2: From Jack Shepard from.
Speaker 1: Is trending. I don't know that I want to talk
Speaker 1: about it. It's a new gen Z term that people
Speaker 1: seems to be trending from people using it and then
Speaker 1: people being like and nobody knows what it means. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's a term of endearment.
Speaker 2: I guess, yeah. I mean, isn't baby girls?
Speaker 3: That's everybody was baby girl in the.
Speaker 1: Baby Girl but so baby girl.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 3: I love that gen Z is just go picking through
Speaker 3: the garage of our of the popular culture of yesterdayear and.
Speaker 2: Like, hey, what about this one baby?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's so stupid.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Also, like, look for wrestling to have a big
Speaker 1: year in the coming year because or I guess it'll
Speaker 1: be twenty twenty five. Is that when they're doing it.
Speaker 1: But Netflix is taking their first big foray into live
Speaker 1: sports entertainment. I guess bye, They're they're going in on raw,
Speaker 1: the WWE thing. They spent five hundred million dollars per year,
Speaker 1: five billie over ten years of raw that.
Speaker 2: Honestly, I'm like, I do not understand how you like
Speaker 2: how raw?
Speaker 3: Like, look, I was all into raws war back in
Speaker 3: the day on Monday nights and shit, But like, how
Speaker 3: that's worth five hundred million a year. But I guess
Speaker 3: when you zoom out, you're like, it's because Netflix is
Speaker 3: now being like and we could put ads on that shit, right,
Speaker 3: and that.
Speaker 1: I never associated wrestling. I mean I never really watched wrestling,
Speaker 1: but like when you watch wrestling, like, does it have
Speaker 1: like high value ads? Like I feel like it was
Speaker 1: always on like places that I wouldn't expect to have
Speaker 1: it to have, like you know, big car commercials and
Speaker 1: stuff like that.
Speaker 3: Well, I just remember watching back in the day, like
Speaker 3: at the Height when it was like Stone Cold versus
Speaker 3: the Rock kind of thing, and they would just leave
Speaker 3: you on a cliffhanger, a cliffhanger and then just go
Speaker 3: to commercial and.
Speaker 2: You're like, well, fuck, I can't like this shit is live.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to fucking get up out of my
Speaker 3: seat or whatever or maybe you know what I mean. Like,
Speaker 3: So in that sense, I guess you can definitely absolutely
Speaker 3: have an audience there for the advertisements. But I think
Speaker 3: it's like again, anything they're looking at ways to diversify
Speaker 3: and bring in even more obscene amounts of money, and
Speaker 3: for them, they're like, Okay, this is something we could
Speaker 3: put adds on where that goes. I'm not sure, like
Speaker 3: I've been so out of the wrestling fandom game for
Speaker 3: a minute, but that's maybe something worth asking Jack Keyes
Speaker 3: next time we see him.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, And John Stewart is returning to the Daily
Speaker 1: Show sort of. He's agreed to host just one day
Speaker 1: a week through the twenty twenty four election starting in February.
Speaker 1: The rest of the time, other Daily Show correspondents will host,
Speaker 1: So the current format, which has been sort of a
Speaker 1: revolving door host format, isn't going away, but John Stewart
Speaker 1: will be the host every Monday after his Apple TV
Speaker 1: Plus show with the Problem with John Stewart suddenly ended
Speaker 1: following creative differences that apparently involved Apple and not wanting
Speaker 1: them to cover topics like China and artificial intelligence. Oho.
Speaker 1: So yeah, well he back on the Daily Show.
Speaker 3: They came so, I mean, like, did you see at
Speaker 3: the Emmys when they when they won and Roy Wood
Speaker 3: Junior was up on stage and he just said hire
Speaker 3: a host.
Speaker 1: Kid on stage. I loved it.
Speaker 2: Oh, Roy Right. Apparently they were very.
Speaker 1: Close to hiring hazamanaj and then that New Yorker article
Speaker 1: came out and gave it came.
Speaker 3: Very cool because I know he like replied with his
Speaker 3: own things like this is a stretch, y'all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's all it's all it takes these days.
Speaker 1: And it could have been Roywood Junior too, Yeah, could
Speaker 1: have been.
Speaker 3: But hey, look, maybe we'll have somebody from the show
Speaker 3: on pretty soon.

Speaker 1: with a whole lass episode up the show. Until then,
Speaker 1: be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves, gets
