WEBVTT - Dinner🍴With Your Idol 🍔 Or 500K 💵

0:00:00.920 --> 0:00:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Plead, Flex and Frooms, Flex and Fromes. This is the

0:00:04.160 --> 0:00:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Flex and Frooms catch up podcast.

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:10.280
<v Speaker 2>There's been a meme, or what I would like to

0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:12.960
<v Speaker 2>call an original moral dilemma floating around the internet since

0:00:13.000 --> 0:00:15.239
<v Speaker 2>at least I don't know, Freeman is better with dates

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 2>than I am, but I tiny twelve. I want to

0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:20.440
<v Speaker 2>say twenty twelve, if not longer. And I don't think

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:22.080
<v Speaker 2>it was intended to be a joke, but I think

0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 2>that's what happens a lot of memes. Someone's being earnest

0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.960
<v Speaker 2>and then they're taken out of context and then we

0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:29.400
<v Speaker 2>make fun of them. Would you rather five hundred thousand

0:00:29.440 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 2>dollars cash in your hands right now or dinner with

0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:32.680
<v Speaker 2>jay Z?

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:33.560
<v Speaker 3>Now?

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:36.920
<v Speaker 2>For most people, the answer is obvious, or is it not?

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:41.160
<v Speaker 2>It has been alongside is the dress blue or yellow

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:42.080
<v Speaker 2>or orange and silver?

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:42.920
<v Speaker 3>Whatever the thing is.

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 2>It has been one of the most contentiously debated pop

0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:50.040
<v Speaker 2>culture topics ever because it kind of unearths all of

0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:54.720
<v Speaker 2>these undercover boy bosses who really believe that if they

0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:57.680
<v Speaker 2>could get in the room with jay Z, they would

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.720
<v Speaker 2>be able to extract so much value you that what

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:02.959
<v Speaker 2>they would do with that value would supersede the five

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>hundred thousand dollars cash.

0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 4>I would love to know what they think about jay

0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:07.600
<v Speaker 4>Z's gonna tell them.

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 2>Maybe, what do you think jay Z's going to tell

0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:13.800
<v Speaker 2>you over dinner as well? Like, let's say it's a

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:15.840
<v Speaker 2>long dinner, it's a nice three and a half four

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:16.480
<v Speaker 2>hour session.

0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.720
<v Speaker 3>What do you really think he's going to share with you?

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:22.120
<v Speaker 2>In particular that you now have the access and the

0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.960
<v Speaker 2>resources and the time and the energy and the support

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 2>to do anything with that information. Regardless, Let's take the

0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:30.720
<v Speaker 2>question seriously, what would you pick for me?

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:34.280
<v Speaker 4>Do you want to guess on my behalf? Do you

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 4>wanna make do you wanna make I guess?

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:37.040
<v Speaker 1>Set me up?

0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:40.560
<v Speaker 2>Just imagine like, of course it's like okay for me's

0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:42.759
<v Speaker 2>gonna take the cash. But I don't know Formy's commitment

0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:45.199
<v Speaker 2>to a bit. I think she would take it further

0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 2>than the average person. And I can just imagine on

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:54.200
<v Speaker 2>a random, you know, weekday afternoon, early evening, popping up

0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:56.840
<v Speaker 2>on Instagram and seeing from doing a zero point five.

0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:01.560
<v Speaker 3>Walking him down the street to Sydney in.

0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>To Cafe Freedoms. Honestly, that would kind of be priceless.

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.920
<v Speaker 4>Not gonna lie what I've discovered in my years across

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.519
<v Speaker 4>the time is that when you have a dinner with anybody,

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 4>what you're going.

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:16.280
<v Speaker 1>To soon realize, especially when you respect.

0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:18.360
<v Speaker 4>Someone quite a lot, is that you're just gonna be

0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:21.480
<v Speaker 4>wanting to come across as good to them. I'm listening

0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 4>with one ear, but the other year is thinking is

0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:26.720
<v Speaker 4>my facial expression correct? Am I giving them enough? How

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:30.400
<v Speaker 4>do I say of a glow? Or am I trying

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:32.120
<v Speaker 4>to impress them? They're not going to be impressed with me.

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 4>I'm just another I'm just another girl. Yeah, so I

0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:41.360
<v Speaker 4>think my own desire to be quote unquote chosen would

0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:44.359
<v Speaker 4>supersede any kind of benefit that.

0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I would get.

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, like real value add And I'm not gonna lie

0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:51.840
<v Speaker 4>Like my favorite Beyonce moment occurred twenty one years ago

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 4>when she was in Austin Powers and I don't think

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.240
<v Speaker 4>I can really speak to that time if I've been

0:02:57.320 --> 0:02:58.200
<v Speaker 4>completely honest.

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Stacey's like, I've done a lot generally, and all you

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:03.600
<v Speaker 2>want to talk about is Beyonce twenty one years ago.

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh, not the Lift episode. I'll leave it.

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:06.960
<v Speaker 4>I want it to be a beautiful dinner. I don't

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:08.800
<v Speaker 4>want to have to get into the nitty gritty. I

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.560
<v Speaker 4>don't care for the tea FLEXI what would you do?

0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:13.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm taking the cash.

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Of course.

0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 2>I just honestly, I was thinking about what kind of

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:20.200
<v Speaker 2>person you would have to be to take the dinner

0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:21.880
<v Speaker 2>with jay Z and you take, Hey, you need to

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:24.600
<v Speaker 2>be a super fan number one, or somebody who has

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 2>aspirations to be where jay Z is potentially, or somebody

0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.520
<v Speaker 2>who really understands the value of networking. But with all

0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 2>of those things, it requires you to be perceived as

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:37.600
<v Speaker 2>someone worth sharing information too. And I can imagine for

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people information sharing is really transactional. I

0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.160
<v Speaker 2>will share the nitty gritty with you, so I get

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 2>the nitty gritty back. And I don't know if jay

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Z wants anything from me, let alone you. You know,

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 2>like if for some reason I was in a room

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.680
<v Speaker 2>with jay Z, he'd be under duress. He doesn't want

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 2>to be there for Now that he's there, imagine I

0:03:56.840 --> 0:04:00.280
<v Speaker 2>start asking him questions. So I just want to understand, like,

0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, when you did that contract with Sony, Like

0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:05.280
<v Speaker 2>what did that look ridiculous?

0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Sick?

0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:11.080
<v Speaker 2>And I'm always very surprised of the value people think

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 2>they can extract from other people without offering anything, because

0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:17.200
<v Speaker 2>in this moral dilemma, You're like, oh my god, a

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.560
<v Speaker 2>dinner with jay Z incredible, Like I could get so

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:21.880
<v Speaker 2>much from that, But like, what would he get from that?

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 3>Why would he do that?

0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:25.640
<v Speaker 2>And even if he if he got to the point

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 2>of actually going to a dinner with you, like you

0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:29.359
<v Speaker 2>think it's gonna be like an open book.

0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there's gotta be some level of he agreed to

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:33.840
<v Speaker 4>dinner and he's he he's.

0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Getting the five hundred thousand dollars.

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 4>So like this is simply an appearance to me moment.

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:39.839
<v Speaker 4>I really want to know, if you ask someone who's

0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 4>listening and you would like to have the dinner with

0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:47.960
<v Speaker 4>jay Z, you please tell us in Instagram, DM flex

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:52.240
<v Speaker 4>and frooms because I'm very surprised if there's one person

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:56.160
<v Speaker 4>that would pick jay Z over five hundred thousand dollars today.

0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:59.239
<v Speaker 3>There are plenty. Maybe if we changed the celebrity in question.

0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Brittany Fears, now we're talking now, I'm considering, really considering.

0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:05.799
<v Speaker 3>What are you considering.

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Hanging out with Britty Suit for five hundred thousand dollars?

0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Like you're forgetting what the knives?

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Not the knives?

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:18.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I would maybe consider that for a MILLI second, and.

0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 3>You would still take the five hundred.

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:21.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I'm not sure I need to sit on it.

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I need a whole nother brain. Just think I could

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:24.720
<v Speaker 1>get stuff out of brittany.

0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:28.239
<v Speaker 4>'d be like a wall.

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 3>There'd be nothing but pretty happy like he okay, babe.

0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:31.760
<v Speaker 1>And she likes its hard.

0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:33.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god.

0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:38.480
<v Speaker 4>See, I would just love to thank her for her up.

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 3>Talk about the robopants.

0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 2>Wait, are you going to position yourself like a longtime

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:48.039
<v Speaker 2>fan or more like a peer like for respected person.

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:52.359
<v Speaker 1>Both definitely have been none rs in certain times.

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 4>No, I would just be a fan, okay, but try

0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.279
<v Speaker 4>and keep it on the down like, not overwhelm a woman,

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:02.640
<v Speaker 4>but rather try and meet her halfway, of course, respecting

0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.120
