1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 2: Come Out of the Rain into the Jonesy demand rams

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 2: for the pub test This morning, Binging TV does it

4
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 2: pass the pub test?

5
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 3: Interesting for and against? This was discussed in the paper

6
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 3: the other day. Two TV critics were discussing this. Craig

7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 3: Matheson was one, Michael Lodato was the other. Craig Matheson said, look,

8
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 3: Binging is like a novel. This is the screen equivalent.

9
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 3: You follow the narrative of the story and you're engrossed

10
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 3: in it, you keep going. Michael Lodato has said it's

11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 3: taken away the chance to discuss episodes with your friends

12
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 3: or your work colleagues. It's taken away TV being a

13
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 3: sense of community that you the next day go, oh

14
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 3: my goodness did you see it? Because viewing has become

15
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 3: competitive now.

16
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 2: My wife's a massive binger and I'm not so much. Yeah,

17
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 2: Helen will sit and watch a whole series go to

18
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 2: way and I need to have a bit of time

19
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: to process it. We're watching My Stand on the weekend

20
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 2: because we both love the Stephen King book so much

21
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: and the Stand. I gotta admit, if you hadn't read

22
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: the book, I think you might be a little bit

23
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: lost watching this particular series. But I think it's designed

24
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: for people that have read the book.

25
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 3: But sometimes it's like, you know, you love it so much,

26
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 3: you have another piece of cake, and then you go

27
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 3: too much cake to mark away from the table.

28
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 2: What do you think?

29
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 3: What do you think? Binging TV? Does it pass the

30
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 3: pub test?

31
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,839
Speaker 4: No, definitely not go back to the old days.

32
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: Check the fun out of everything now.

33
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 4: I guess it does for the old series, just improve

34
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 4: it a nostalgia. But you know, if you've got the

35
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 4: new series that come out, obviously you're going to watch

36
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 4: it week for a week.

37
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: Now. I reckon it does if anyone needs to sort

38
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: of decompress these days, some people can't go to the movie.

39
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,639
Speaker 1: So I reckon binge watching TV was absolutely fine. TV

40
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: boring anyway. What have you got? Reality programs? Cooking shows?

41
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: One's exciting at all.

42
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 3: You've got the living Room starting again on Friday night.

43
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 2: There you go, that's all the excitement I need. I'll

44
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: be binging on that.

45
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 3: Sure you binge it on the Munds

46
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: With Jones and Amanda
