Fitness tropes that yuck your yum for no good reason

We all see a lot of repetition among fitness influencers. Even the best, most informed ones fall into the trap of repeating tropes that don’t matter to anyone’s health or fitness.

We all see a lot of repetition among fitness influencers. Even the best, most informed ones fall into the trap of repeating tropes that don’t matter to anyone’s health or fitness.
For sure, the content game is tough, and coming up with new topics is an exercise in scarcity. We talk about a few of the ones that bug us the most.
We also discussed the recent passing of NBA legend Bill Walton and his impact on the sport and culture. Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in as well.

1
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:21.440
Welcome, oh ladies and gentlemen.
My, but I've had wants to tell
2
00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:25.000
me something new every time I turn
it on for whatever reason, just like
3
00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:28.160
notifications going crazy. Yeah yeah,
yeah, I try to turn off every
4
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:31.600
notification. I don't know why every
app wants to track everything I do,
5
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:34.640
and every app wants to notify me
like obviously I know why, yeah,
6
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:40.079
Mark, But like i'd only need
a notification from like Canva or something like
7
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:44.280
yeah, yeah, this one's telling
me that I can turn on Wi Fi
8
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:48.359
calling. It's like I'm aware of
that. That's been around for a minute.
9
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:51.479
If I really wanted it, I
would use it. I have used
10
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:54.600
it before. What turned it on? I turned it off? You know,
11
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:59.880
I use it just because signals sucks
sometimes. But what's the deal with
12
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.359
Windows eleven? Why it's so trash? Why is everyone hate it? Is
13
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.959
it actual trash? I don't know. I think I have it on my
14
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.480
PC in Vegas. I don't even
know. I know it's like a thing
15
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.239
within like gaming. Yeah, freaking
out, hate it, freaking out.
16
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:18.200
And I don't know why. I
don't know the answer to that, cause
17
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:21.599
people people say that same ship with
iPhone updates, but then they all update
18
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:23.480
it and stop planning. Like this
last one. I remember, everyone's like,
19
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:27.040
don't update your phone. The update
sucks, and then everyone stops talking
20
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:30.519
about it because they probably updated their
phone or realized it's the same. Dude.
21
00:01:30.599 --> 00:01:34.280
That's just human nature, just to
think everything that's different or new sucks.
22
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.239
I think, so so weird.
Yeah, so weird because I just
23
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:41.640
updated because I figure it's gonna be
the best. I'm fucked either way.
24
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:44.840
They know what the hell is going
on. They're watching me in the shower.
25
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.680
They're hacking your phone so easy.
I've heard you have your your phone
26
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.879
propped up in the shower sometimes because
sometimes watching a video. I'll do it
27
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.799
on the outside of the shower so
don't get wet. Yeah. Yeah,
28
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:02.239
I just put a for the little
tally, a little tally over my cock
29
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:06.239
just in case. But no,
I put it on the outside. My
30
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:13.360
bathtub faces my shower, which is
a glass shower, and so I'll prop
31
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:16.599
it. Yeah, I prop it
on the bathtub on the outside and I'll
32
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:20.759
either listen or watch through there.
Sometimes my showers are pretty quick, so
33
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.639
it's not even like that's serious.
I do want to shower with a TV
34
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:28.039
in it. I think that's sick
as fuck. But yeah, I don't
35
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:30.120
know because then I yeah, I
just update my shit and don't even think
36
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:34.360
twice. But people are freaking out
every single time. I think it's a
37
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:37.800
new emoji this week too. It's
like a little cream by looking one.
38
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.960
Something looks crazy. Oh whoa hello, Yeah, there's like a little yeah,
39
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:46.199
there's a crazy looking one. They're
always making some such they know what
40
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:47.439
they're doing, they know what they're
doing, they know it's gonna get used
41
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:51.439
when it's just walks the line that
they gotta get some talking. Yeah,
42
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:53.520
there was one I forgot, but
I saw a meme of like the five
43
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:59.120
that are coming to one's a little
crazy. They're always very uh what's the
44
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.080
term ambiguous. They're always like,
you know, up for interpretation. Yeah,
45
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:07.439
yeah, you just throw it out
like go ahead, let the culture
46
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:13.360
take it. So it actually just
sort of looked at a subreddit about Windows
47
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.800
eleven. Somebody asks, is Windows
eleven really as bad as the detractors say?
48
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:21.159
This was two hundred and eighty three
days ago, so I'm still using
49
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:29.479
Windows seven and Window seven was like
the last really stable release of Windows.
50
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:30.360
Yeah. See, I don't even
know. I don't even know what that
51
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:37.199
means almost it works. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm feeling that the squeezed upgrade
52
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.000
to something more modern. I hear
a lot of negative things about Windows eleven,
53
00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:45.199
some of which are here. Requires
very specific hardware requirements. Okay,
54
00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:46.479
that I get if you've got an
old SPC. Yeah yeah, ok.
55
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:53.759
Doesn't allow you to dual boot to
Linux or other non Windows operating systems.
56
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:58.240
Don't know what the fuck that means? Doesn't bother me? Does that?
57
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:01.439
Did a programmer? Yeah, like
if you're a fucking programmer, yeah,
58
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:03.919
man, but then why are you
bitching in a public forum? You know,
59
00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:06.960
I don't know. Some people like
Linux because it's more a little more
60
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:11.919
stripped down and runs a little faster, and it's a little easier to work
61
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.959
on in the in the in the
guts. Yeah, but that's feels so
62
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:20.480
niche. Yeah. It's also Linux
is open source and Windows is not.
63
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:25.319
Yeah yeah, yeah, so you
can hack it Windows eleven. What do
64
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.120
you got? Do you have it? They are my kid? No,
65
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:30.439
but I have a PC at home
all right? And uh they took away
66
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:35.000
my me being able to use my
controller. What Yeah, I try to
67
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:38.360
Oh maybe you're a controller. Yeah, we talked about the Yeah, the
68
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:41.240
dual stock for because the new ones. Yeah, the new ones you're allowed
69
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.600
are mostly good for Windows ten and
eleven. But you need like a gaming
70
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:46.879
controller. Yeah, like a like
a brand new game of control. So
71
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:48.279
that forty dollars one, it's a
banger. I might just have to Yeah,
72
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:51.759
it is a banger for forty bucks. Refer it works pretty good.
73
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:56.240
It is Xbox, which kind of
messes me up. The joysticks. Yeah,
74
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.319
you just get used to it.
Yeah, but bro, I swear
75
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:01.360
it's so weird how human it's work
because I'll be playing you don't even played
76
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:06.360
that much. I'll play like two
games a day max. And switching to
77
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:11.360
a new controller, I feel like
I'm walking for the first time. Yeah,
78
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:14.240
you're on still it feels like that, dude. Yeah, I'm like,
79
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:16.319
fuck you. I've been gaming for
twenty five years and I feel like
80
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:19.920
I've never gained before, especially if
you only played like two games. Yeah,
81
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:23.839
that's probably why. Yeah, but
just yeah, PlayStation Xbox. Such
82
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:28.319
a drastic change is insane. I
feel like gaming's kind of not died,
83
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:30.399
but it's a little dead. Ye, it's a little dead, right.
84
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:32.360
Yeah. There's not a lot of
action happening, not a lot of craziness.
85
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:36.839
Well, the industry on the development
side has been in turmoil for a
86
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:42.240
bit, so yeah. Well,
and just a general business model now is
87
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:46.240
just to update games because it's so
much cheaper and easier than making new games.
88
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:48.720
Yeah. So they're just sequels yeah
in the movies. Yeah, it
89
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:53.519
worse because it's literally like not even
like they'll just change one little baby gun
90
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:56.800
and war Zone has been a game
since twenty twenty four years, the same
91
00:05:56.839 --> 00:06:00.560
bullshit. Maybe on the back end, they're putting a ton of money into
92
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:03.639
like ar VR, but nothing's come
of it, like nothing, there's no
93
00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:10.000
advancements, even though I heard it's
Xbox the new One and PlayStation right is
94
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:14.079
supposed to be this year because of
grand theft Auto I think, so they're
95
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:16.199
dropping at the same time, which
I would assume they're trying to aim for
96
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:19.279
a holiday release. Yeah, like
a Christmas thanks get right, I mean
97
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:25.399
that's where the money is. Uh. It says Microsoft is trying to turn
98
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:30.639
Windows into glorified mobile app that can
has control over which applications you can install,
99
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.480
which sounds a whole lot like yeah, Apple, Apple's iOS Yeah,
100
00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:38.959
which again is the decent business model
and being a based on like phone apps
101
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.120
isn't a bad thing. Like obviously
the gatekeeping, you could argue, but
102
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:48.240
uh, phones were like forced to
be like simple and usable. Yeah you
103
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:51.160
know, and that's what Mac does
best. Yeah, so like why wouldn't
104
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:56.120
Windows try to adapt a little bit
of like the yeah, like the brain
105
00:06:56.199 --> 00:07:00.360
that. Yeah, it seems you
know that everyone can do it. Cars
106
00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:04.720
are like that, right, Like
all car computer systems and navvy systems and
107
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:09.680
shit are always trying to compete for
like simplicity and ease of use. Yeah,
108
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:15.199
it kind of makes sense to me. And then finally it's shock full
109
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:18.199
of surveillance that monitors and reports your
activity in Microsoft. But that's not anything
110
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:20.959
new. Yeah that kid, you're
fucked bro, Like that dude thinks he's
111
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:24.920
living some secret life. Yeah,
I agree, I hate all that.
112
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:29.759
I I'll triple down on it.
But like you're gonna go get some fucking
113
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:32.759
satellite phone and not text or go
on the internet because you're worried about surveillance.
114
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:36.040
Like you going on the internet,
you're gonna get watched, Yeah,
115
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:41.040
exactly. Just don't do criminal activities
and then those watchers aren't gonna bother you.
116
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.560
It's like walking on any stream in
London, yeah, yeah, or
117
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.000
even here right like New York,
Vegas, San Francisco. There's cameras,
118
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:50.160
cameras everywhere. There's a bank every
third fucking hey, what happened to that
119
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:58.319
fucking bank? Youngstown shout out?
Did you see that? No, JP
120
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:03.920
Morgan literally explodes in the middle of
Youngstown, Ohio, which I think is
121
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.519
very close to not only my boy
Candido, although we've moved to Texas now,
122
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.079
but also my other boy, Dave
Chappelle. I think they both live
123
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:15.160
in the area. The it just
literally explodes and then they're like, gas
124
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.720
leak. I'm like, holy fuck, we shouldn't have gas in houses if
125
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:22.639
it could do that. Well,
yeah, it did that in in San
126
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:26.000
Jose like fifteen years ago. Oh
yeah, the whole fucking city, the
127
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:28.759
whole place blew up. Yeah.
Yeah, that I understand because gas is
128
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:33.320
under the roads and ship. But
this literally looks like the beginning of Dark
129
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.120
Knight or something, you know,
like it it's like they're about to just
130
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.080
run out of the flames with bags
of cats. It looks insane. It
131
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:46.360
was all over Twitter. I did
not see that surveillance from the outside street
132
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:48.120
on the opposite side. I don't
know what the hell surveillance looks like on
133
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:52.960
the inside, But it was giant. What bank was it? Again?
134
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.080
I think it was a JP JP
Morgan Chase. It says JP it's his
135
00:08:56.200 --> 00:09:00.799
JP Morgan, which is I don't
think a thing like it's Chase. I
136
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:03.639
assume unless it's a corporate building,
then maybe it is JP Morgan. But
137
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:05.720
I think it was just a regular
bank. If you type in Youngstown,
138
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:11.840
Ohio bank, it'll it was crazy. Seven one killed, seven injured after
139
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:24.320
explosion rocks downtown Youngstown, Ohio.
Explosion is normally explosion was near the Central
140
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:30.759
Square Tuesday afternoon. Police said unclear
what caused the explosion, which impacted a
141
00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:37.279
building that contains a Chase bank and
apartments. Yeah that's a mess. Yeah,
142
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:41.879
the bottom floor just explodes. Oh
shit, it goes bad. It
143
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:45.480
goes bad. Yeah. The video
is way worse. Does it show it
144
00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:52.399
exploding? Yeah? Yeah, literally
camera across the street. Season that bear
145
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:54.840
with me when I find that.
Maybe it's in here, Oh here it
146
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:58.919
is. Yeah, it looks like
that's after it looks like a nuclear winter.
147
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:09.399
Oh there it goes a house fucking
startling? Is that shit? What
148
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:15.559
a mess it was yesterday? I
think so damn. Yeah, we're dating
149
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:30.679
this this recording bite saying that,
but yeah, crimony seven year old Chase
150
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:35.200
Bank employee is the one who died. That sucks. I mean at least
151
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:39.799
only one. Yeah, because it
was its giants and all that. Yeah,
152
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:41.919
it's yeah, that's true. Yeah, it looked like it was about
153
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:46.559
four or five stories tall. Long
story. Sure you're getting fucking surveilled,
154
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.759
folks. Yeah, unless you're trying
to live some Amazonian river or something,
155
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.000
motherfuckers are gonna know what you're up
to. Yeah. No, for sure,
156
00:10:56.080 --> 00:11:00.960
I don't know that part. You
just have to figure out how to
157
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:03.320
live with I mean, there are
ways to deal with that there, you
158
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:05.480
know, could just be legal.
Yeah, they don't think about it.
159
00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:09.720
Yeah, there's they're there are illegal
ways to be illegal as well, and
160
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.399
that's you know, and not get
and not get caught by anybody who's not
161
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:18.519
an expert in trying to find that
that kind of stuff. But I don't
162
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:20.559
know. I'm not going to be
illegal. I don't know. You can.
163
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:24.799
Yeah, I mean you can.
I'll just be legal and not worry
164
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:28.720
about it. I'm not going to
go into illegal activities. The easiest that's
165
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:33.080
the easiest way. My future bright. I'm good. I'm not. I'm
166
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:35.039
not trying to do no jail time
or get fine something crazy. Yeah,
167
00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:41.440
that's nuts. So so I want
to bitch about something, I want to
168
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:45.240
bitch about something in particular. But
it's a whole genre of things that we
169
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:48.360
all are exposed to pretty much every
day because of the industry in which we
170
00:11:50.200 --> 00:12:00.519
practice, and that is social media
tropes in the fitness space that need to
171
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:05.320
fucking die. And this one particularly
pains me because a couple people that I
172
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:09.399
actually have a lot of respect for
have been banging this drum and I think
173
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:16.919
it is ridiculous to continue to bang
this drum. And it's also who cares?
174
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:22.799
And why are you worried about people
even thinking this? And that is
175
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.759
I think I've talked about this before. It's organic vegetables, Like, Okay,
176
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:35.320
there aren't a lot of studies that
show that organic vegetables are in any
177
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:41.320
way better for you. But what
is the point of from the fitness standpoint,
178
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:46.279
banging that drum? Because why do
you care what people eat as long
179
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.840
as they vegetables, like where they
get them, and how much they spend
180
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:52.679
on them that is not coming out
of your pocket. I mean, if
181
00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:58.200
people are saying, oh, I
can't eat well because I can't afford organic,
182
00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:03.919
well that's one thing, but the
continual like, you know, not
183
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:07.080
any better for you, blah blah
blah blah blah blah, Who cares?
184
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:09.840
Why do you care? Why put
any effort into it at all? And
185
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:15.279
the answer is to me is always
just you know, content creation. They
186
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.159
just need something to talk about,
and they come back to it over and
187
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:22.039
over and over again. Like it's
a thing. I can tell you from
188
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:26.960
a personal standpoint, like ninety of
the vegetables we eat at home come from
189
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:33.200
local farmers' markets, and in general
that shit tastes better than stuff you get
190
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:35.799
in the grocery stores or whatever that
and most of the stuff here local,
191
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:43.840
you know, it's like organic or
organic methods, farmers markets. That's not
192
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:48.519
the most critical component to it,
but it is a component. And you
193
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:58.399
can't say that there's no downside to
pesticides, herbicides. There's you just can't
194
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:03.879
say there's no downside to that stuff. There's no you know, like it's
195
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:09.879
very popular right now to say that, you know, the government or science
196
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:15.240
or whatever doesn't have your best interest
at hearts. But I mean, I
197
00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:20.679
do agree with that trace amounts of
that stuff in your in your body not
198
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:24.840
going to be not going to be
great overall. You know, It's like
199
00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:28.720
it's like the mercury and fish.
You know, that's this is one of
200
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:33.200
those things. Just you know,
fish accumulate mercury and they're fat, and
201
00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:37.679
then you eat the fish and then
you can get mercury poisoning eating too much
202
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:41.240
of it. Maybe it's the same
with vegetables. We don't know, but
203
00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:48.080
I do think the priority if you're
a fitness expert should just be on other
204
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.720
things, right, Like you're you're
you're majoring in the minors for sure.
205
00:14:52.840 --> 00:14:56.840
If that's like the drum you're beating, because those faces that we're well over
206
00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:01.279
fifty percent obesity in America. If
you're creating content in America, even in
207
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:07.159
Canada, chances are your demographics well
into the USA? Yeah, by a
208
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:13.000
vast majority. And yeah, are
we more worried about that than we are
209
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:16.000
just moving our bodies, getting off
the couch, drinking water, sleeping,
210
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.120
getting protein. Like, there is
way more checks that I'm checking off.
211
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:26.200
I don't know if I've ever necessarily
and I don't know even where I stand
212
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.600
on the argument in general, but
I don't even know if it's something I've
213
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:33.559
ever brought up to like a client, just because there's so many other factors
214
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.919
and habits we got to build into
that, and yeah, it's kind of
215
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:41.480
none of our business. If you
got the money and you think it helps,
216
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:43.000
yeah, go snag it. If
you don't got the money and you
217
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.039
don't think it helps, don't go
snaging. Exactly, yeah, exactly.
218
00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:50.759
It's I don't know, and I
don't know if it is content creation either.
219
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:56.120
I do wonder with all topics how
much these people are passionate or not,
220
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.759
because especially nowadays with short form content, you can't get a vibe of
221
00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:03.559
a human right because it's so highly
edited and it's perfectly scripted. I was
222
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:07.720
even watching a couple of streams over
the last couple of days, and they're
223
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:11.559
all, you know, most streamers. Age is probably most content creators.
224
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:18.080
Age is probably twenty to twenty five
now for the top creators. And how
225
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:26.720
I can see now how curated their
personalities are is insane. And that's in
226
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:30.639
long form so you can see it
a little bit better, and short form
227
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.639
you just can't see it. You
just think these are happy, positive folks
228
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:36.279
and they can do any of their
actors. I mean, everyone's just like
229
00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:40.840
a shitty actor now. But I
do wonder how many of those folks believe
230
00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:47.039
their own thing or if they like
go in with a full business plan on
231
00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:49.080
the content they're creating, because a
lot of people do that, you know,
232
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:52.840
So like these I'm making this up, but like these pro organic people
233
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:59.679
have a code to an organic farm
Fresh to You website, and so they're
234
00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:03.559
playing the long game and they're making
one hundred pieces of content on organic foods
235
00:17:03.599 --> 00:17:07.559
to kick you that affiliate code because
affiliate codes are like pretty relevant again.
236
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:12.480
Or do they just truly that's their
battle. I mean, like at least
237
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:15.400
one of them at least grew up
on our organic farm and just believes that,
238
00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:18.559
right, Like and that's fine,
Like if that's the shit you grew
239
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:26.119
up on. And Waldorf, we're
basically the whole philosophy they created their own,
240
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:30.680
like beyond organic, which is like
biodynamic farms, which is an insane
241
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:36.400
science on like how to fully use
everything you can. And I grew up
242
00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:44.920
literally farming a farm. Biodynamically you're
using We're building giant compost piles like twenty
243
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:49.480
feet by twelve feet all over the
farm. You're using all the kalimneure and
244
00:17:49.519 --> 00:17:56.160
everything and making your own fertilizer.
Like everything goes like cyclical, which obviously
245
00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:00.920
just doesn't scale that well. It's
gonna be real hard to do for eight
246
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:04.960
billion people, but historically that's probably
how we farmed and it works pretty good.
247
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:08.240
But even that I'm not that passionate
about. But yeah, I guess
248
00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:11.480
my long story is like, are
these people actually passionate about that? In
249
00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:15.720
which case, all right, I
guess, like chase your passion, But
250
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:21.599
that's probably unlikely. But then why
would they choose that niche? That's all
251
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:25.279
this stuff you know, everyone's running
now, everyone's I mean, the whole
252
00:18:25.319 --> 00:18:29.960
thing with the Internet is just like
Pavlov you know, like someone to do
253
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:33.359
a piece of content, gets a
bunch of likes, they drool, they
254
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.640
rinse and repeat. Yeah, Like
it's just everyone tries to copy what they've
255
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:41.440
seen be successful. Yeah, because
it is successful because about based on the
256
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:45.519
algorithm. And so then we just
have a bunch of clones stumping about on
257
00:18:45.640 --> 00:18:49.039
Instagram, saying the same things,
doing the same things, acting the same
258
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:55.319
way, same facial expressions, same
like patterns of speech in flux and words.
259
00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:59.119
Yeah, we're just making a bunch
of parrots out there. Yeah.
260
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:02.920
I mean, some of the argument
is that there's no standardization as to what
261
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:06.559
organic means. Okay, that's fine. So any big factory farm can put
262
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:11.880
organic on whatever and unless somebody really
challenges them on it, you know,
263
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:15.240
and it makes people somewhat more likely
to buy it who are influenced by the
264
00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:22.279
word organic. But if you're buying
from smaller organic methods or organic farms,
265
00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:27.960
whether they're certified or not, like
in California there's a certification for it,
266
00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:32.440
those are small farms that we I
mean, that's people's livelihood that we should
267
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:36.440
be trying to support, right yea, and not you know, I mean,
268
00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:40.839
if you want to fight against big
corporations, like fight on fight them
269
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:45.799
on some other point, you know, other than just marketing. I don't
270
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:48.319
really know what I mean, like
resource depletion or some other fucking thing,
271
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:53.039
you know, energy and efficiency whatever, fight them on all that stuff.
272
00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:56.279
But if they you know, if
they're choosing to label something as organic and
273
00:19:56.359 --> 00:20:00.640
some people buy it and it's still
fucking vegetables, and who cares. Yeah,
274
00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:04.000
yeah, I don't know. I
don't know. Speaking of farms,
275
00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:07.640
though my mom. Uh, he's
like addicted to this new show. It's
276
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:14.759
the uh dude from top Gear,
the old British cat and he buys a
277
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:18.920
farm, uh just for shits and
gigs. What is his name? He
278
00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:22.119
is pretty funny. He's like it's
he just like doesn't give a shit about
279
00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:25.160
anything, which I kind of like. I kind of like his attitude.
280
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:27.079
He like kind of plays dumb,
I think, but he is funny and
281
00:20:27.119 --> 00:20:30.880
he just literally is going through,
like step by step on his own how
282
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.400
to make like a pig farm.
He has like a perfect like I would
283
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:37.240
say, narrator voice. No,
yeah, he's perlic That's why he's so
284
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:41.880
good. Jeremy Clarksons, Yeah,
Clarkson's farm. So I watched what episodes
285
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:44.319
out. It was funny. He
was like trying to fucking he was like
286
00:20:44.400 --> 00:20:47.559
birthing a pig by himself, like
in the middle of the night, like
287
00:20:47.640 --> 00:20:49.839
no clue what he's doing. And
then he's getting pissed because the I guess
288
00:20:49.880 --> 00:20:53.440
it's common in pigs they roll over
their babies and kill him. Yeah,
289
00:20:53.480 --> 00:20:56.000
and he's freaking out at the mom. He's like, yo, shit,
290
00:20:56.119 --> 00:21:00.599
mother, and he's fucking just like
dumb ass ship Yeah, it was funny.
291
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:08.000
Yeah, I get Uh he's done
three seasons of that quirky ass old
292
00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:11.400
man. Yeah, he's funny.
Well since since uh, you know,
293
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:15.079
they got kicked out of top Gear. He got kicked out of top Gear,
294
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:18.279
did he? Yeah? And then
they went to Amazon and they did
295
00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:22.720
a show called The Grand Tour,
which was which was essentially a ripoff of
296
00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:29.119
top Gere. And then that you
know, they ran out their contract and
297
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:32.200
they were done and there hasn't been
any more of that, and top Care
298
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:37.480
itself is is tailing off. Yeah, I mean you can only do everything
299
00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:40.599
gets a little repetitive. Even if
you're doing the newest cars or the most
300
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:42.799
exonic cars, it's still yeah,
like what, Yeah, the formats kind
301
00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:45.000
of can get played out. You
got to come up with some kind of
302
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:49.519
a some kind of a gimmick that
is your through line through the episode.
303
00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:53.640
Yeah. I think I saw that
Amazon one and they did kind of like
304
00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:56.720
that. They went to Detroit and
they like bought a house for five grand
305
00:21:56.759 --> 00:22:00.720
to stay in for the weekend or
something, and then they only drove like
306
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:04.559
mopart type cars. You know,
like there's like something there. It's just
307
00:22:04.599 --> 00:22:08.519
a very reality show. Yeah,
cooked you know, kind of the reality
308
00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:12.319
show seem kind of dead in some
senses, huh, like just because the
309
00:22:12.359 --> 00:22:18.119
era, because of social media.
Yeah, if you're looking for like reality,
310
00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:21.119
you're probably gonna go to YouTube,
or you're probably gonna go to a
311
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:25.000
stream. Even a podcast in a
sense is like a reality version of an
312
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:26.440
audiobook or whatever you want to call
it. You know, they all kind
313
00:22:26.440 --> 00:22:30.039
of replace some of that. I
think we talked about this recently, but
314
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:40.200
like YouTube has a fairly significant percentage
now of all TV viewership because of YouTube
315
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:45.359
TV, yeah, or just people
watching YouTube on their TVs, not just
316
00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:48.559
like computers, but TVs like smart
TV. Yeah, yeah, that's wheally
317
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:52.519
that the whole app thing and Windows
eleven kind of makes sense, like what's
318
00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:56.160
your TV? Your TV is basically
based on phone apps like the you like
319
00:22:57.240 --> 00:23:04.279
the user friendly. Yeah they're not
all, but they're mostly Android apps,
320
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:07.960
right, I mean yeah, yeah, I think Roku and them are,
321
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.640
and sam Sung and sh It's Android, and then obviously Apple TV's Apple but
322
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:14.359
kind of makes sense to run shit
like that. I do wonder what the
323
00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:18.880
percentage is then of YouTube TV,
because that does seem popular because that is
324
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:22.640
like the main cable now, right, Yeah, because everything else is like
325
00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:26.680
trying to package up, but they're
all not the same company, so it
326
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:30.640
makes it difficult. Now, I
think I think most people are watching other
327
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:37.720
sources other like than like sports.
Any movie or series is probably on a
328
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:41.599
streaming app. Sports are the only
one that's kind of like still strong and
329
00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:49.880
running on its own. Yeah,
speaking of sports, Anthony Edwards is a
330
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:53.680
refreshing view on the NBA. I
don't know if you have seen his interviews,
331
00:23:53.720 --> 00:23:56.240
and shit, he's twenty two,
you know, so he's just living
332
00:23:56.279 --> 00:24:00.720
the dream and he's like acting like
he's living the dream. There down three
333
00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:03.000
to one in a series, or
I think they're down three to zero in
334
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:07.599
a series, and they just win
the first game in the series, and
335
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:11.160
he's joking like crazy, not giving
a ship in the postgame interview, talking
336
00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:14.119
about bringing sneakers to his favorite and
the NFL player and shit, you know,
337
00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:18.759
I kind of like it, Like
there's something about the Kobe mentality and
338
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:21.519
being all you know, like all
in, all in, but this kid's
339
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:25.160
a freak and he's still kind of
having fun with it and being like silly.
340
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:29.920
I know, some people were comparing
him to like Michael Jordan. That's
341
00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:33.240
like the biggest comparison just because he
shit talks, I think looks a little
342
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:37.039
bit. I honestly, I might
say he's a hair more charismatic than Jordan.
343
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:40.039
Jordan was charismatic, but he wasn't
as outspoken. Yeah, this could
344
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:42.839
We'll just say anything on the mic
and then they just like are built and
345
00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:47.759
move ya crazy? Similar do you
think he'll be like the next face in
346
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.440
He's definitely a next face. He's
definitely the next face uh luke is gonna
347
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:55.319
be in the conversationship. But that
if he's just quiet. He's a little
348
00:24:55.400 --> 00:25:00.400
quiet. Obviously there's an accent barrier. But if if any if they're yeah,
349
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:04.640
if if aunt Edwards can keep up
his performance, he's definitely like the
350
00:25:04.799 --> 00:25:07.839
next face. I feel like John
Morant had it. It was literally handed
351
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:11.160
to him on a silver platter and
then he just started fucking hopes they fuck
352
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:15.519
it up? Yeah, fu up? And who knows, like coming in
353
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:18.799
Aunt Edwards wasn't that well received,
but yeah, in this playoff runt,
354
00:25:18.839 --> 00:25:22.119
he's gone crazy. Yeah, and
Minnesota doesn't really help, you know,
355
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:26.559
it helps when you're in a big
market. It's like Memphis doesn't really help.
356
00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:32.039
But yeah, Lebron did it in
Cleveland, but then again, you
357
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:33.599
know, whether it be pressures or
not even moved to Miami stuff did it
358
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:37.480
but the Bay area just because they've
had bad basketball, but the Bay is
359
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:41.119
made for sports. I don't know. I don't know about the Minnesota shit.
360
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:42.359
The playf's been interesting though. They
got a lot of press, which
361
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:45.880
is kind of cool. It's the
first time people like seem to like really
362
00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:51.599
care about the playoffs since maybe you
know, the bubble m Yeah, yeah,
363
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:56.000
probably. So Bill Walton died,
we should just note that. Shut
364
00:25:56.039 --> 00:26:00.440
out Bill, shoutout big Bill Man. What a crazy guy. All reading
365
00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:03.240
all the stories and stuff. Just
like whether it's like people I kind of
366
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:07.440
know or just people in the industry, it seems like he was such a
367
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:10.519
bright energy. So people don't talk
about a lot because he was kind of
368
00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:12.640
hated here for a sec although everyone
was being nice obviously because he passed,
369
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:15.920
but because he was an announcer for
the Kings for a while and a lot
370
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:21.279
of people hated on him. Yeah, but in hindsight, obviously they aren't
371
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:23.039
as much because I think he just
said what he wanted to say, you
372
00:26:23.119 --> 00:26:26.359
know, so he didn't like always
suck the King's cough all the time,
373
00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:30.160
only ever said what he wanted to
say. Then that was like, you
374
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.960
know, I mean, I think
that's cool. I hate tuning into another
375
00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:36.160
team, even if it is my
team, and in hearing the announcers so
376
00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:38.720
biased. Yeah, you know,
they're like bitching about fouls that are clearly
377
00:26:38.839 --> 00:26:41.319
not fouls. You know, they
just like throw the game out the door
378
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:45.279
and just sucking the dick of the
team they work for. I hate that
379
00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:47.920
too, you know, And so
I think that's why people didn't like Bill
380
00:26:47.920 --> 00:26:49.279
Walton. Right, it was a
little early in mind. I mean it
381
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:52.680
was when we were good. It
was like I was high school, maybe
382
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:55.839
just before high school. Yeah,
I think he would just say like when
383
00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:57.519
the Kings were wrong and people got
pissed at that, or when Chris Webber
384
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:00.920
didn't play well, people they flame
them for it. Yeah, And you
385
00:27:02.000 --> 00:27:07.720
know, I'm biased because I watch
more baseball than anything else and I'm a
386
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:12.519
Giants fan, and so they have
like historically one of the best broadcasting crews
387
00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:18.519
TV and radio like kind of anywhere. But they do criticize. I mean
388
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:21.799
they're you know, they're they're homers
to a certain extent. But when they
389
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:23.119
say you can't do that, or
you can't get away with that, or
390
00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:26.759
you can't whatever they're I mean,
a lot of a lot of very homer
391
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:32.559
broadcasters will not say those things for
fear of retribution and losing your jobs or
392
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:34.119
whatever. Yeah, which is kind
of silly. It is silly because if
393
00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:37.599
if, if your team is playing
bad, you should be able to say,
394
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:40.079
this is not this is not good, this is not acceptable, this
395
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:42.960
is not you know, yeah,
this is things you just can't allow to
396
00:27:44.039 --> 00:27:45.680
happen. You know. Bill Walton
so us enough. No, I just
397
00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:49.160
looked them up. So Bill Walton
played at UCLA and the great John Wooden
398
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:55.200
arguably maybe the best coach in all
fucking sports. You could easily argue Bill
399
00:27:55.240 --> 00:27:59.519
Walton. You could probably argue top
five top ten college basketball players of all
400
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:06.359
time, just an absolute dominant force
in the seventies, and then had to
401
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:10.279
stay with the Trailblazers. I think
he won a ship with the Celtics and
402
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:15.039
Larry But he had a lot of
back pain, like a ton even really
403
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.519
young. So his NBA career was
slightly underwhelming, but it was one of
404
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:22.279
the ones where people kind of knew, like, no, it's literally just
405
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:25.279
his back like otherwise he'd be shipping
on all guys. Oh he's a big
406
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:29.480
fuck. He's probably seven foot six
ten. His son played with the Lakers
407
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:32.079
and Kobe for a long time.
Luke Walton, yeah, six eleven.
408
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:33.039
Yeah, he's a big dude.
I have him on a pair of socks.
409
00:28:33.079 --> 00:28:36.960
Stance made a pair of socks at
him back in the day on the
410
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.440
Trailblazers. Yeah, big old red
afro. He looks like a lumberjack.
411
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:44.319
Yeah yeah, yeah. Have you
heard of Luke Walton. Luke Walton coached
412
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:45.519
the Lakers for a bit. He
played for the Lakers. That's his son.
413
00:28:45.559 --> 00:28:51.640
Obviously. He might even coach the
Warriors for a bit. He's coached
414
00:28:51.640 --> 00:28:53.519
a bunch of sports. Yeah.
Yeah. Is he as tall as Luke's
415
00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:56.920
probably six nine, six ten.
Yeah, Luke had a decent NBA career.
416
00:28:57.039 --> 00:29:00.599
Does not look Bill with six eleven? Yeah? Yeah, And Luke's
417
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:03.279
got to be over six eight because
he kind of played power forward ish,
418
00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:07.480
but he played with Kobe and them. You might even want to ship with
419
00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:10.880
them to the sun. Uh and
then it's now yeah kind of on his
420
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:15.319
coaching coaching career. I never watched
watch Bill Walton, only in replace I
421
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:18.839
think I'm a little young. Yeah, Luke Walton was six eight, you're
422
00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:22.720
dead on. Yeah, he's a
big dude. He might uh yeah did
423
00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:23.880
he coach the Kings. He might
have been here for I think he was
424
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:27.680
Lakers Kings. Yeah, yeah,
Luke was Yeah, dude, the Kings.
425
00:29:27.759 --> 00:29:30.359
That so many coaches changes, I
can't even keep up in my brain.
426
00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:33.240
Yeah, but Bill Wallton is a
big one, big one. His
427
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:37.680
his deal was uh, when Kerr
was out with back surgery, he was
428
00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:42.519
Luke. Yeah. He stepped up
one of the playoffs games and they did
429
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:45.799
pretty well. That. Yeah,
that showed him a bunch of love.
430
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:48.240
Yeah, and then it just turns
out he wasn't that good. Yeah.
431
00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:51.559
Really, Yeah, I'd be a
pretty good coach if I had Steph Curry
432
00:29:51.559 --> 00:29:53.720
and his prime too. Yeah,
exactly should be looking pretty good. And
433
00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:57.960
isn't the NBA one of the like
the sport that the coaches have the least
434
00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:00.920
impact. I've we went over that
list, Yeah, I know we did,
435
00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:07.160
and I can't remember. I forgot, Yeah, I forgot that list.
436
00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:11.079
We went through all the pro sports, I don't know. Yeah,
437
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:15.599
there was a comparing college I think
it was comparing college and pro sports.
438
00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:22.240
In the majors in the major sports, maybe because I think I remember me
439
00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:26.359
predicting that college coaches would have more
of an impact and NBA coaches would have
440
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:27.200
less, and that was the case. I think they were kind of middle
441
00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:30.880
ground. I don't think they were
high or low. At least that's what
442
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:34.599
the logic in my head is saying
that coaches have a pretty good, pretty
443
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:38.599
good impact, but not as in
depth as football or something, because just
444
00:30:38.680 --> 00:30:41.960
making play calls is so crazy.
Where an individual can kind of outdo a
445
00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:48.480
play call in the NBA can't really
do that in football. Apparently the biggest
446
00:30:48.599 --> 00:30:52.839
impact, according to this is American
football. Yeah, I would agree.
447
00:30:52.680 --> 00:30:57.720
I mean, you're literally calling every
single play and you got eleven dudes to
448
00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:04.680
fucking move one thing perfectly. Yeah. Yeah. So to jump back to
449
00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:15.119
YouTube for a second. In January, Nielsen released viewing usage across linear TV
450
00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:19.640
and streaming revealed that YouTube is once
again the overall top streaming service in the
451
00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:26.920
United States with eight eight point six
percent of viewing on television screens, while
452
00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:33.039
Netflix was at seven point nine seven
of all viewing not versus a phone,
453
00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:37.920
all viewing TV no no TV screens, TV screen Yeah yeah, so it's
454
00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:42.240
not comparing cell phone used to TV, it's comparing platform to platform on TV,
455
00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:47.160
platform to platform. Yeah, Netflix
was seven percent seven point nine percent
456
00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:52.960
Netflix eight point six percent YouTube.
That's insane that it's so split like that.
457
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:57.880
Yep, right, because like you've
rewind thirty years ago and it's like
458
00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:04.200
Comcast are Direct, Like that's it. Yeah right, Yeah, it was
459
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:08.519
probably close to like a thirty thirty
thirty split with some other shit Comcast and
460
00:32:08.599 --> 00:32:14.359
they're that's in our experience. There
are different cities, they're big, big,
461
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:16.279
East Coast has some has some that
we don't have here. Yeah,
462
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:21.119
even even Nevada with Cocks Spectrum and
Cocks. Yeah, but I bet you
463
00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:25.519
there's like four Yeah. For for
YouTube to be the biggest and be less
464
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:30.839
than a tenth, yeah, it's
pretty crazy. Yeah, because because then
465
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:37.640
you know obviously what Hulu, Amazon
Prime, Yeah, Apple TV, what
466
00:32:37.759 --> 00:32:42.799
else? Another banger Disney Disney does
have to be in the conversation. Peacock.
467
00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:46.319
Peacock's probably in the conversation just because
it's got some major hitters. Peacock
468
00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:51.880
is just small, but they're like
they're pushing into sports pretty hard. Yeah,
469
00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:54.799
what was the big sports deal that
just happened. Oh, Netflix,
470
00:32:54.920 --> 00:32:58.000
we talked about that a little bit
in the Live Sports. Yeah, they're
471
00:32:58.039 --> 00:33:00.519
showing the w NBA game for the
first thing, and the Mike Tyson and
472
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:04.359
Netflix said they would never go into
sports, and they went into sports.
473
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.319
They said they would never have ads. They have ads, You don't they
474
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:10.640
have ads when you pay even right, they'll throw them bitches in the beginning.
475
00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:15.160
Uh, when you the fire tv
app does that? I don't know,
476
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:19.759
but oh, maybe it's just the
app. My fire tv is just
477
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:22.400
like it's irritating the crap out of
me and may have to be replaced for
478
00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:28.319
was one stupid thing. It's always
trying to update the remote that Windows eleven
479
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:31.880
and yeah really yeah, and it
says that it'll take two or three minutes,
480
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:37.000
and twenty minutes later it's still going
and nothing's happened interesting, And my
481
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:42.400
original remotes died sometime back and or
mostly died, and so I had to
482
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:45.119
get another one and I didn't get
exactly the same remote. Yeah, and
483
00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:50.279
apparently it just doesn't it's not happy
with me at all. Bastards. Yeah,
484
00:33:50.319 --> 00:33:52.759
I don't know where you're watching with
live TV. Who's got live TV?
485
00:33:52.920 --> 00:33:54.680
I know that because of the commercials
they ran that good. Yeah,
486
00:33:55.200 --> 00:33:59.240
and it's catchy, Yeah it is, and they got all the cool guys
487
00:33:59.319 --> 00:34:01.920
saying def Korean Dame Lillard are saying
it. But yeah, I don't know.
488
00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:06.480
I don't know where people watch regular
shit either. And there's a there's
489
00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:10.840
a bunch of like bundling happening now. Yeah, yeah, Hulu and Disney
490
00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:15.039
just came up with another one,
I think. Yeah, I can't remember
491
00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:17.079
who else that one was with.
There's one that's there's a bundle that is
492
00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:22.320
you can buy it independently, and
then there's a bundle you can only buy
493
00:34:22.360 --> 00:34:30.840
through Comcast that includes Netflix, but
it you can only get the commercial version
494
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:36.360
of Netflix. And you know,
they make more money off of the ad
495
00:34:36.519 --> 00:34:40.719
sponsored stuff than they do from membership. Sure with the amount of views,
496
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:45.280
holy cow, they're probably raking in
the dough. Yeah. I mean,
497
00:34:45.320 --> 00:34:47.360
the question is whether or not there'll
be a point in the future where they
498
00:34:47.519 --> 00:34:52.239
just stop offering the ad free versions
of stuff. I know, which does
499
00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:55.360
suck because then I would rather just
have it free. And I'd almost rather
500
00:34:55.440 --> 00:34:59.360
have them all free. And you
plug me with a couple ads. Yeah,
501
00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:01.679
you know, we can get I
did not realize how many things you
502
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:05.079
can get if you just have an
Internet connection. Yeah, free v.
503
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:07.679
There's a bunch of random ass yeah, like mini apps that tub yeah,
504
00:35:07.760 --> 00:35:10.519
yeah, all those, and you
can find some decent moviode I mean even
505
00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:14.679
I think Amazon Prime is another one
that will blasts you with ads regardless.
506
00:35:14.840 --> 00:35:16.199
I don't know if you can upgrade
beyond them. Yeah, it's two ninety
507
00:35:16.239 --> 00:35:20.079
nine a month to get rid of
the ads on the top of your membership,
508
00:35:20.079 --> 00:35:22.519
on top of your membership masters.
I did it because a lot of
509
00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:25.159
the things that I watch on Amazon
and things I don't want commercials in.
510
00:35:25.400 --> 00:35:29.360
Yeah, I don't. I don't
really watch shit. I really don't because
511
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:30.519
I don't even have all that many
Yeah, Disney, but they just don't
512
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:34.280
update. There's shit enough, you
know. Yeah, there's just not that
513
00:35:34.400 --> 00:35:37.559
many movies coming up. You know, there's a lot of stuff on Disney
514
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:42.079
now because they own everything. Yeah, right, they own ABC and they
515
00:35:42.119 --> 00:35:45.800
own fucking yeah whatever else ESPN.
That's why I wish they had more sports.
516
00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:49.239
ESPN apps kind of confusing too,
right, because like you buy it
517
00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:52.760
and you don't really get anything besides
like South Wales rugby. Yeah, and
518
00:35:52.880 --> 00:35:59.440
then and like the Women's Softball World
Cup and then like to see anything legitimate,
519
00:35:59.480 --> 00:36:01.000
either buy it pay per view or
I don't even know if you can
520
00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:06.800
buy like a straight ESPN app that
just shows you like basketball because they don't
521
00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:10.480
own all the basketball games. Yeah. ESPN Plus is their other service.
522
00:36:10.760 --> 00:36:16.880
It's actually comes bundled with Hulu and
and and Disney Plus. Now, like
523
00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:21.599
you can buy that bundle. That's
the one I have currently, and it's
524
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:28.400
I have like commercials on Disney.
TNT's team's breaking up arguably the best,
525
00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:32.039
in my opinion, live sports show
talk show ever, the Shack And yeah
526
00:36:32.039 --> 00:36:37.440
they're done because TNT didn't re up
the contract with the NBA, right,
527
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:40.760
so who ended up with that one? I think it's just going everywhere because
528
00:36:40.960 --> 00:36:45.360
that's not like it NFL and NBA, I mean baseball too, right,
529
00:36:45.239 --> 00:36:49.239
Baseball, I feel like tends to
be more local. Like there's a very
530
00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:52.239
rare chance that you live in San
Francisco and you're gonna watch like a Rockies
531
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:55.960
diamondback game, right, Like,
it's just less likely because there's so many
532
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.679
games you're gonna just pay attention to
your team. Where NBA and NFL,
533
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:04.559
in particular NFL, i've probably on
the scale you watch the most games that
534
00:37:04.639 --> 00:37:07.320
have nothing to do with your team, right, and then NBA is probably
535
00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:12.199
somewhere in between. But I think
because of that, yeah, like Netflix
536
00:37:12.280 --> 00:37:15.119
might have bodied I think Netflix might
have did buy an NBA game or two.
537
00:37:15.719 --> 00:37:22.119
I forgot what it was, ESPN, ABC, CBS. Maybe the
538
00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:24.800
main channels are trying to buy it
back. So like the Peacocks and shit,
539
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:29.960
I got Paramount Plus that's got some
decent shit and no sports. Yeah,
540
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:31.119
I don't even know where to watch
sports. It's kind of trash.
541
00:37:31.599 --> 00:37:37.400
Paramount Plus is getting more sports.
But and then, yeah, the how
542
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:40.239
the fuck are you supposed to watch
the Olympics. That's a good question.
543
00:37:40.280 --> 00:37:45.079
I don't have an answer for,
you know, and that starts in like
544
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:51.199
thirty days. Disney, Amazon,
NBC is as of seven days ago,
545
00:37:52.119 --> 00:37:55.920
but two days ago, Adam Silver
said that the TNT deal may not be
546
00:37:57.079 --> 00:38:01.079
dead just yet. Yeah. I
think the team's dispersing. I think Charles
547
00:38:01.159 --> 00:38:06.000
Barkley's production team bought it. I
don't know where he works or what his
548
00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:07.920
production team does, but I think
he tried to just buy the guys.
549
00:38:08.039 --> 00:38:14.679
Yeah, Charles Barkley won't let corporate
Honchos silence him over NBA rights deal.
550
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:16.599
I can talk to who I want
to. Yeah, a lot of that
551
00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:20.559
stuff. It shows you how long
it's been going on the background, because
552
00:38:20.559 --> 00:38:22.320
Shack just started a podcast with the
last couple of months, probably because he
553
00:38:22.400 --> 00:38:28.239
knew his show was over, so
he's building the hype. Yeah. Yeah,
554
00:38:28.239 --> 00:38:32.039
they're still a moving to which is
interesting finding their ways. They said
555
00:38:32.039 --> 00:38:37.159
that they wouldn't do a show without
that core group, right, I assume.
556
00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:38.480
Yeah. I think they all get
along pretty good. Yeah, I
557
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:42.679
assume so. I mean the chemistry
seems like, Yeah, they're funny,
558
00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:45.000
man, they are funny, and
they say some crazy shit. They let
559
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:50.119
some like pretty off the wall shit
happen for I think, dropping f bombs
560
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:53.119
and stuff because his live sometimes I
think that shit just happens accidentally and they'll
561
00:38:53.119 --> 00:38:57.639
probably just take the fine, you
know. Uh so it runs through next
562
00:38:57.719 --> 00:39:00.239
year though, Okay, so one
more year at tnc Yeah, one more
563
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:04.199
year and then but you know how
this stuff goes. It takes a long
564
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:07.400
time to negotiate these contracts. Yeah. I think that was the big thing.
565
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:10.079
That's part of the big thing the
NBA is doing. Before they announced
566
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:15.079
their new teams, is there locking
in all these contracts because the contracts probably
567
00:39:15.079 --> 00:39:17.079
go for five or ten years or
something, right, Yeah, so it's
568
00:39:17.079 --> 00:39:21.360
probably a big old deal to lock
in the TV contracts and the player union
569
00:39:21.480 --> 00:39:24.280
attached to that. And then I
think they're going to officially announce their expansions.
570
00:39:24.320 --> 00:39:28.039
Where do they think if they're going
to ext Vegas Seattle? I think
571
00:39:28.079 --> 00:39:31.039
it's almost were talked about. Yeah, I think it's almost written next now
572
00:39:31.159 --> 00:39:34.800
that it's Vegas, because they've been
talking about that since like twenty ten.
573
00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:37.199
They already run the summer league there, they run the Olympic training camp there.
574
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:40.559
Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot
of the women's teams going bananas.
575
00:39:42.440 --> 00:39:47.079
Yeah, I don't know. Did
we talk more recently about about the issue
576
00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:52.000
with the a's deal for Vegas.
We talked a little bit. The latest
577
00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:59.159
thing I heard was that it it
still faces like pretty significant funding challenges because
578
00:39:59.159 --> 00:40:06.280
they're only back up for building the
stadium is Bally's, and Bally's is trying
579
00:40:06.280 --> 00:40:08.239
to build as a company er hotel. Yeah, as a Yeah, the
580
00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:15.280
whole funding ballet gaming organization, which
includes all the hospitality, yeah, Balles,
581
00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:21.480
Balle's, and they're trying to build
a new casino someplace in New Jersey,
582
00:40:21.719 --> 00:40:23.840
and uh, there's a lot of
money tied up in that, and
583
00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:28.679
that they don't have really all the
money for that put together yet and so
584
00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:30.960
and they're the main backer, and
they're the main backer other than the a's
585
00:40:31.079 --> 00:40:36.480
organization and what money they got from
the Nevada legislature, Yeah, which probably
586
00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:38.000
not much. The Nevada stuff gets
weird, which I just found out,
587
00:40:38.079 --> 00:40:40.679
and don't quote me, but there's
something about, like I don't think the
588
00:40:40.800 --> 00:40:46.239
Strip is technically like part run by
the mayor. It's run by like some
589
00:40:47.320 --> 00:40:51.840
council. Yeah, and so like
that kind of splits up the city weird,
590
00:40:51.880 --> 00:40:54.519
depending on how you're doing business.
Yeah, kind of like Sacramento in
591
00:40:54.559 --> 00:40:59.199
a sense, right, Like Sacramento
City is pretty small and we have a
592
00:40:59.280 --> 00:41:04.760
million suburbs that stretch out for the
county. Yeah, but I did just
593
00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:07.519
learn that, So like, yeah, I don't think the mayor regulates the
594
00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:10.199
Strip, so that kind of plays
like a political role and shit like this
595
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:14.320
on how that may may or may
not And I don't think they all get
596
00:41:14.320 --> 00:41:16.840
along very well because obviously, if
you're the mayor Las Vegas, you want
597
00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:19.880
to be a face of the Strip
because that's what you got going on.
598
00:41:20.039 --> 00:41:22.760
But he's not or she. I
don't even know what it is. I'm
599
00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:25.199
not sure either. That would be
interesting. Yeah, though even the licensing
600
00:41:25.440 --> 00:41:29.239
business is just so shady. They're
like this team is just gonna be the
601
00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:31.960
A's wherever they end up. And
then there's like reports they filed for Sacramento
602
00:41:32.039 --> 00:41:36.679
A's copyright everywhere. Yeah, probably
just keep anybody else from doing it,
603
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:39.440
but you never know. Yeah,
very or very least you had to sell
604
00:41:39.519 --> 00:41:43.920
merch. Yeah, maybe they players
won't wear it, but you could buy
605
00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:46.159
it in the clubhouse or something.
I didn't know, which I heard from
606
00:41:46.199 --> 00:41:50.960
a member actually, So who knows. If it's true that they're building out
607
00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:53.079
the stadium more that they're trying to
like yeah, yeah, that they will
608
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:58.159
do that in the office, Yeah, that'll be cool. New locker rooms
609
00:41:58.840 --> 00:42:00.800
or like new seating, like they're
to add like five thousand seats. That
610
00:42:00.920 --> 00:42:04.719
makes sense, No, for sure
makes sense because it's just what like thirteen
611
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:07.719
thousand is yeah, yeah, small, And what's at and T or whatever
612
00:42:07.800 --> 00:42:10.239
it is? It even a T
and T. It's Oracle and I think
613
00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:15.119
it's between thirty eight and forty thousand. Yeah, that's why normal ish.
614
00:42:15.280 --> 00:42:20.119
That's pretty normal. It's on the
smallish side because they give up. They
615
00:42:20.239 --> 00:42:23.440
give up a whole bunch of right
field. Yeah for the standing deal,
616
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:28.199
Yeah, which is cool concept.
But yeah, the standing thing and the
617
00:42:28.239 --> 00:42:31.679
fact that they're up against the McCovey
Cove and the water. Yeah, we
618
00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:34.480
are too. Man, if you
hit a bomber, you end up in
619
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:37.360
the river. You better hit a
fucking bomb though. Yeah. Yeah,
620
00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:40.000
that's an absolute new Yeah. You
didn't need missile to get into the river.
621
00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:44.800
It probably smashed all those apartments along
the way. Yeah, the apartments
622
00:42:44.840 --> 00:42:50.199
are in the way now, it's
built those up. Challenge. Although the
623
00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:54.360
way that ballfield is oriented, you
it had more inland. Yeah, towards
624
00:42:54.400 --> 00:43:00.480
the pyramid. Yeah, more towards
the just the weirdest building in Sacramento.
625
00:43:00.599 --> 00:43:04.960
They's built a fucking pyramid. Yea
literally in the nineties, right, yeah,
626
00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:07.119
in the eighties nineties. Yeah,
I grew up with that family.
627
00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:12.239
It was the money store, the
Turtle Tops. Interesting. Yeah. The
628
00:43:13.079 --> 00:43:17.039
director of Little Sunshine what the same
guy. Yeah, and now his son
629
00:43:17.960 --> 00:43:22.519
Alex was really close to my mom. I think he does producing and directing
630
00:43:22.599 --> 00:43:25.880
Hollywood. Now. See, yeah, say they take down the dime the
631
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:30.840
pyramid. Make it a bass pro
shop. Yeah, come on you Memphis.
632
00:43:31.000 --> 00:43:36.639
Yeah, yeah, that ever's in
there, Memphis beating us. It
633
00:43:36.800 --> 00:43:39.960
would be a six store or even
like a hotel we need. That would
634
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:43.760
be a sick I think it is
a business now, it's not money store,
635
00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:45.400
but somebody bought it and they're shitting
there. Is the state, Yeah,
636
00:43:46.320 --> 00:43:51.679
it's a state employees retirement system.
Yeah, so it's not the state
637
00:43:51.719 --> 00:43:55.920
itself, it's the the actual retirement
in the same way that we have cow
638
00:43:55.960 --> 00:43:59.679
purs down the street here, that's
actually a state institution. I don't think
639
00:43:59.679 --> 00:44:01.679
that is. I don't think the
stairs is. I don't know. Yeah,
640
00:44:01.679 --> 00:44:05.440
I know they sold not only the
building but the company in like the
641
00:44:05.519 --> 00:44:08.719
late nineties for some absurd and it
doesn't exist anymore, right, I mean
642
00:44:08.760 --> 00:44:12.199
money store? Yeah, the name
money stores, I don't think somewhere no,
643
00:44:12.239 --> 00:44:15.079
I think it was. I think
it was a national credit type bank,
644
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:17.559
and I don't think they're around no
more. Yeah. I think he's
645
00:44:17.559 --> 00:44:20.559
just making movies. I haven't talked
to him at the time. I know,
646
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:22.280
I know he owns like a yoga
retreat in Maui. He ended up
647
00:44:22.280 --> 00:44:27.039
I think marrying my pe teacher.
What. Yeah, and I think they
648
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:30.280
have like a compound in Maui where
they do like yoga retreats. Interesting.
649
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:36.320
Yeah, very waldorfy type folks.
Super kind. Yeah, dude was worth
650
00:44:36.400 --> 00:44:38.800
like five hundred million in the nineties
and he drove like a nineteen eighty five
651
00:44:38.920 --> 00:44:44.199
Volvo station Wagon. Just didn't give
a shit, kind of the typical billionaire
652
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:45.760
type vibe, you know, where
he's just wearing like a flannel shirt,
653
00:44:46.880 --> 00:44:52.360
just driving it. I would ta
station wagon. California is a place where
654
00:44:52.519 --> 00:44:58.159
you cannot easily judge how much money
people have by the very different great dress
655
00:44:58.360 --> 00:45:04.480
and what they drive. In fact, they're if their clothes look expensive and
656
00:45:04.519 --> 00:45:07.920
their car looks expensive, the chances
is that it's all credit card pretty good.
657
00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:12.880
Yeah, Yeah, they're looking rich, being wealthy. Conversation. Yeah,
658
00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:15.639
let's wrap it back to Instagram.
That's everybody. Yeah exactly. Do
659
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:20.159
you have any uh, you have
any other bitching points? I think just
660
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:22.719
the a'lgo in general. And it's
not because of views, and it's not
661
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:27.840
because of like what's popular, but
it's just literally creates, you know,
662
00:45:28.400 --> 00:45:30.880
the echo chamber. And I'm not
even talking about like ideologies. It's just
663
00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:35.840
the echo chamber of like creativity.
You know, you're just forced to do
664
00:45:36.079 --> 00:45:39.239
what everyone's doing. So everyone does
what everyone's doing because of that Pavlov feedback,
665
00:45:39.920 --> 00:45:43.559
and then we're stuck with nothing,
you know, for anything to grow.
666
00:45:43.920 --> 00:45:45.480
And people will argue that and say, well, you're just not creative
667
00:45:45.639 --> 00:45:50.239
enough. Or I've heard of a
book. I haven't read it, but
668
00:45:50.320 --> 00:45:54.079
it's called like a steal, like
an artist or something, and the concept
669
00:45:54.119 --> 00:45:58.039
I understand. Obviously I should probably
read the book to learn more. But
670
00:45:58.159 --> 00:46:01.280
and I get that everything's inspired by
everything, and that it takes creativity to
671
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:06.480
create anything, even if you're regurgitating
or whatever. But it's just not what
672
00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:10.400
I'm a fan of. And the
more personalities are faked, which I hear
673
00:46:10.440 --> 00:46:14.119
people talk about, which blows my
mind. I guess it's just norm now,
674
00:46:14.199 --> 00:46:16.559
you know, like oh, that's
like my on air personality or that's
675
00:46:16.599 --> 00:46:20.639
my off air yeah, or whatever, like oh he's different. I've heard
676
00:46:20.639 --> 00:46:22.679
people say oh nah, he's different
off camera. I'm like, well,
677
00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:28.000
that's weird. Concept. Then I
can't say that I've ever experienced that.
678
00:46:28.119 --> 00:46:30.320
Yeah, yeah, yeah, obviously
it's been around, but like for people
679
00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:32.400
to like admit it and that'd be
the norm. Is weird to me.
680
00:46:32.639 --> 00:46:37.400
Yeah, and that's just kind of
the creature we've created with the money back
681
00:46:37.480 --> 00:46:42.800
in. How popular or social media
is? I actually, I wonder which
682
00:46:42.840 --> 00:46:45.280
thing is more annoying than people who
have two different personalities, like an on
683
00:46:46.000 --> 00:46:52.239
screen on air personality versus their real
personality, or the people who believe they're
684
00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:58.400
on screen on air personality is them
and they try to act it all the
685
00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:00.519
time, even though I would rather
someone be at least themselves one hundred percent
686
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:02.400
of the time, so at least
you know what you're getting. Yeah,
687
00:47:02.960 --> 00:47:06.880
then you can cite for how you
move around that If someone fucking has eight
688
00:47:06.960 --> 00:47:09.039
personalities, I don't know who the
fuck I'm talking to or how they're supposed
689
00:47:09.039 --> 00:47:13.039
to move. No, that's true, that's true. Yeah, that should
690
00:47:13.079 --> 00:47:15.679
sucks. I think we all adapt
to what's around us. But at the
691
00:47:15.719 --> 00:47:21.000
same time, uh, not being
authentic at all. And I think it's
692
00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:23.519
hard to be authentic and it's but
it's it's easy to say you're being authentic
693
00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:27.840
and hard to really be authentic.
Yeah, it's crazy the amount of people
694
00:47:27.880 --> 00:47:30.039
that have to say they're authentic and
genuine. Yeah, like bro, like
695
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:34.199
if you like it's like hardcore if
you have to say your hardcore, you're
696
00:47:34.239 --> 00:47:37.440
a hardcore Yeah, no, one
percent, because then the very next post
697
00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:40.400
they'll talk about fucking speaking their truths
or something like that, or like talk
698
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:44.480
is cheap, you have to act. Yeah, and then like two seconds
699
00:47:44.519 --> 00:47:47.639
ago, you had to tell me
you're genuine, right, Yeah, it
700
00:47:47.679 --> 00:47:51.760
makes no sense. Another one I
was her out there is just the and
701
00:47:51.920 --> 00:47:53.199
we've talked about this before. The
people who get up at four thirty in
702
00:47:53.239 --> 00:47:55.840
the morning or whatever. It's like, yeah, you're a morning person.
703
00:47:55.960 --> 00:47:59.239
I get it. Yeah, we
had a good chot on I don't care.
704
00:47:59.360 --> 00:48:04.119
We had a good chat with Jamar
and Bart about that on the Barbara
705
00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:07.480
Gage Show and kind of a new
perspective they fed to me and Jamar I
706
00:48:07.519 --> 00:48:09.519
think put in I don't want to
put words in his mouth and can go
707
00:48:09.639 --> 00:48:13.559
watch it. But basically what he
said is he would post stuff like that
708
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:16.679
and talk that way to bump himself
up because he was so tired and down
709
00:48:16.880 --> 00:48:20.119
or like to motivate himself. So
he had to get up at four.
710
00:48:20.440 --> 00:48:22.599
So he's like, well, fuck
it, man, I'm up at four
711
00:48:22.679 --> 00:48:23.760
and no one else is up at
four, Like I gotta get it done,
712
00:48:23.840 --> 00:48:27.039
you know. And it was almost
like self talk, but he has
713
00:48:27.039 --> 00:48:30.000
an Instagram so that it comes off
a certain way. He's like, dude,
714
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:32.880
they misconstrued like I'm not throwing middle
fingers to nobody, but like I
715
00:48:32.960 --> 00:48:37.320
gotta get myself going, you know
the jim like I'm working harder than everybody
716
00:48:37.360 --> 00:48:39.000
else. Yeah, yeah, literally
like that. And he's like, that's
717
00:48:39.079 --> 00:48:42.400
just to get me going because I
gotta be in this cold ass gym at
718
00:48:42.440 --> 00:48:45.320
fucking four am by myself squad eight
hundred pounds. I'm like, bro,
719
00:48:45.400 --> 00:48:46.480
I get it, Like you do
what you gotta do. Yeah, And
720
00:48:46.599 --> 00:48:49.760
it's different when you're at the top
of the game. I guess that would
721
00:48:49.760 --> 00:48:54.760
be like the big the one pet
peeve of mine is like people that haven't
722
00:48:54.840 --> 00:49:01.280
like done anything or been anywhere long
enough and they'll just emulate what they see
723
00:49:01.320 --> 00:49:06.000
above. Like have you've been squatting
two years? Three years and you're talking
724
00:49:06.039 --> 00:49:08.519
all this shit on you know,
Like, well, yeah, man,
725
00:49:08.639 --> 00:49:13.840
Like Jamar's squatted six hundred when he
was twenty years old, played college football,
726
00:49:13.920 --> 00:49:15.480
been powerlift in ten years. Russ
been powerlift in ten years. Like
727
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:20.079
they kind of got a spot to
talk about it and at the end,
728
00:49:20.079 --> 00:49:22.400
they're still at the top, you
know, so again, Yeah, kind
