But you're, you're, you're, we're alluding to the fact that Pat, I'm not a big speed guy. Can I tell the car? Oh my god, this guy, he's one of the bent people.
Starting point is 00:01:12 Everything. Just Pat, there's more multiple stories. One thing that I know about. I know about. I know. Yeah, right. One thing I know about Pat, difference in him and I, Pat, very influenced by the original top gun.

Just stay in somewhere. Don't even work. Sit and just give tickets. Someone's gonna be speeding. So I guess the question is,
Starting point is 00:02:30 is this in your blood? Like, have to speak after a while. Have you ever seen my dad drive? Listen, my dad got his driver, got his driver's license in the US, not Iran in 84. From 84 till today, he's now once gotten a ticket, one time cop pulled him over.

Starting point is 00:02:57 What does that have to do with the fact that you go 165 on the regular? The balance set out. I got a balance set out. I got a balance set out in the scheme. It gives a generation as what you're saying. So listen, we got a lot of things to go out. I got a balance it out in the generation. So listen, we got we got a lot of things to go through.
Starting point is 00:03:07 We got some, did you guys see Dana White's response to when people say you need to take some time away to think about what you did? Have you seen that? Have you guys seen that at all? Okay, first of all, we'll cover

Uh, so he could give spare parts and organs to his older brother. That's what he said in the book. He said that in the book. Why would anybody write that? I mean, you gotta know you. He said he printed it. I will talk about it. We'll help him sell another hundred thousand dollars. I think it just shattered. Uh, and. And then a few other things.
Starting point is 00:04:05 By the way, do you guys see YouTube's a new what profanity policy? Have you seen a new YouTube profanity policy? Shit, no. Profanity policy. We'll talk about that as well. And then we got something to talk about with, obviously nothing to see the Biden documents.
Starting point is 00:04:17 It's not a big deal. But we'll cover it literally. Oh, and there's a second batch. We'll see nothing to see there either. Yeah, we'll cover that. We'll cover what World Bank cuts 2023 global growth projections are with inflation. Jerome Powell confronts his peers
Starting point is 00:04:31 and says, listen guys, we got to focus on the economy, not climate change. He will talk about that. Tom's got some commentary on Microsoft. First puts a billion dollars in Chad GBT. Now they're thinking about putting another 10 billion. Late off workers are flooded with fake job offers. That's a Wall Street Journal article.

It's just another reflection of what a great job Pete Buttichet is doing. Like, you know, that's, that's one of those things. He's got to be proud of what his job. NBA, NBA, NBC execs regret giving Jimmy Fallon 80 million. We'll talk about that. We got a few maybe Tate conversations. We'll have Bill Cosby wants to go into tour. I'm concerned

But Tom, let's get right into the Jimmy Fallon story. Sounds like you got some stuff you wanna talk about there. If you wanna go to page nine on what's going up with Jimmy Fallon, by the way, do you like Jimmy Fallon? Between him and Kimmel, do you like Fallon?
Starting point is 00:05:42 I love, I love, Fallon is very likeable. Okay. Two things Pat, 100% Fallon. They're all obviously, they're all politically biased and they all do their one, like all the videos of them. Get the shit, all that stuff. That's a family camel though. Kimmel.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Fallon just did one this week. Kimmel is the, Kimmel, the most hypocritical thing about it. He's the biggest chit talker Trump, everybody, man show, he did black face, he did Shaq, all the biggest mouth. He did Carmelone. He did Carmelone, my bad, he didn't do Shaq. But just, it's just not funny anymore.
Starting point is 00:06:16 It's not funny. The hypocrisy is not funny. It's not when he did Carmelone. Some would say that was funny, but the act of, as if you walk on water That's my problem. That's the part that you lose credit If we're talking about comedy and late night comedians and Fallon and Kimmel and and and these guys Seth Meyers I'm missing one Colbert. Yeah, the the the whole premise with comedy is being able to have
Starting point is 00:06:40 Misdirection. Oh, I didn't see that one coming that came out of nowhere There's a layer like a joke. He did like the joke. You came out of fricking nowhere. Yeah. But when you know where the joke starts and where it ends, so Donald Trump's house just got like you know where it's ending. Yeah. So you're just like an as two or a current comedian, former comedian. It's like if I'm looking at I don't really watch a lot of late night. Yeah. But if I do and I just kind of want to have some general entertainment and you already know where the joke is headed. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Exactly. By the way, we do have to, so this morning, we have a tragic story that I was like, we're trying to have a good time. All of a sudden, some guy comes in, giving us an article, emotional article, we're all laughing here until this guy brings this story. It's a kid that's in court.
Starting point is 00:07:22 You got to have this one here. Crazy. Kid is in court. He's been liberal from here. Crazy. Kid is in court. He's, you know, he's been living with his mom. Parents are getting the divorce, the custody battle. Do you want to go with mom or dad and they beat him. They say, no, I don't want to go with my mom or my dad.
Starting point is 00:07:35 Very terrible situation. They both beat him. Then the aunt is sitting there. Do you want to go with the aunt? She says, no, she beats me twice as much. Oh my God. This thing gets, no, she beats me twice as much. This thing gets, I mean, the judge has his grandfathers confused.
Starting point is 00:07:48 The grandfathers beat everybody. Everybody says so they finally, they're so confused. They said, where should we give this kids custody battles to? He chose Dallas Cowboys because they don't beat anybody. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. Yeah. That was hilarious. That was hilarious.

That was hilarious. That was paying Jimmy Fallon 80 million contract extension as Fox news great gut filled beats tonight showing ratings. The tonight's your host Jimmy Fallon is reportedly losing the rating war to Fox news arrival. Greg gut filled the show is currently drawn in less than 1.5 1.3 million viewers compared to gut fills. 2.5 million damn. And even less than Stephen Colbert's late late show on
Starting point is 00:08:42 CBS. Fallon signed 80 million million out of five-year extension, would NBC nearly 19 million months ago, but has attracted 30 million subscribers to his YouTube channel. And, but this does not drive up ad rates for the regular show. There have been already been shakeups in the production staff and Fallon's contract
Starting point is 00:09:01 may not protect him from further changes. NBC may consider buying out Fallon's contract and replacing them with a host who can bring in more viewers. Pat. I'll tell you what I thought. I found this really interesting today because I saw Fallon and then I saw like three other articles on big payouts going to NFL coaches getting fired. And this guy Matt Rool, Carolina Panthers, he had gotten
Starting point is 00:09:25 a four-year extension for $40 million. So what happens is at the peak, you know, NBC or the NFL or another sports league, they give these guys big extensions. And then they don't play out. So suddenly Jimmy Fallon basically goes one in eight to start the year. He's not driving his ad rates up. His YouTube channel isn't helping the tonight's show. He's like, wow, he's on social media. He's got this and this and it's helping us. And so there's a little mini case study here.
Starting point is 00:09:54 But the NFL has it right. I looked up into NFL contracts. It's very interesting. And it doesn't sound like NBC did this with Fallon. We were talking about non-compete yesterday. Yep. Right? Well, in the NFL, when you get fired, it's called please compete. And let me explain what that means. Please compete with me. In the NFL, Matt Rule, under the terms of his agreement, which is with the team, but there's also a jurisdictional element with the NFL,
Starting point is 00:10:24 Matt Rule is going to get that $40 million, but from who? In the NFL, with the put in contracts, if you're under the age of 60, what's called the mitigation clause, you have to go out and find another job, you have to. And the NFL has got a whole team of lawyers and investigators that follow you around.
Starting point is 00:10:42 And they're actually making phone calls for you, getting you hooked up with colleges or other teams. You wanna know why? Let's say you pat, you're the owner of the Carolina Panthers. You're on the hook, per the contract, for $40 million from that rule, because you're firing him after a one-in-four star and he lost the locker room.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Get out. So it's one of the rare firings in the middle of the season. Well, you're on the hook for 40. Unless, maybe he goes back to Baylor and gets a five year $20 million contract, that gets deducted from the 40. You don't have to pay. So you're on the hook for 20.
Starting point is 00:11:12 So you're on the hook for 20. Exactly right. And so this happens all over the placing in a FL. Cliff Kingsbury, Arizona Cardinals, people are really, oh yeah, a $20 million extension, they owe him 20. Unless Cliff gets another job. That's nice. Let's stay on this topic here.
Starting point is 00:11:26 So it's interesting. You're saying this. So in other words, if I, you mean to tell me if somebody right now called NBC and said, Hey, we're what if CNN called NBC, they don't have the money to, but if CNN called NBC and said, Hey, we'll take that contract away from you. Just ship him to us. You mean to tell me they can't take that money away from NBC and pay that to them?
Starting point is 00:11:48 Typically, we don't know what the fine print of Jimmy Fallon's contract says, but typically in media, they pay the money to keep Fallon on his couch. Just in case, they wouldn't want him to go to CNN and maybe blow up and be the old Jimmy Fallon competing with them. Wow.
Starting point is 00:12:04 They don't want that. So they'd rather pay him the money. He sits on his couch, figures out what project he's going to do, what's he's going to invest in. He probably becomes a producer, executive producer starts putting money into things that he wants to do. But the NFL's got it figured out. Instead of non-compete, it's please compete.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Go get another job. Just tomorrow. What a great concept for NFL. I mean, I understand what that means. Go take the money elsewhere. Go make the money elsewhere. But for Greg Gutfeld. So NBC is free cable, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:12:33 It's free TV. Anybody has access to it. Sure, sure. Anything you buy, it's Fox News free cable. It's not. You have to pay for it, right? You have to pay for cable to watch Greg Gutfeld. So let me get the straight.
Starting point is 00:12:45 The one with the free audience is losing the one that is you have to pay to watch it by two X that by the way, that is absolutely embarrassing to think about and get your successful producer. The most successful producer right now in all of the universe of cable and television is Greg Gutville. He created the five. He owns a big chunk of that show. He's the most successful in the biggest viewership. He's king right now. And Pat, going off of what Adam said to Pat, you know why? Check to see what the chemo is getting. Chemo is getting to see if he's beating both of them. Come on. And when people say, and when people say why, you know why Pat, a gut felt is out there Tom when you watch him
Starting point is 00:13:25 Well on that couch and that's who he is there and when he walks into your house and your party He's that same guy when you watch CNN and shit You you think like would you want to be at a party and see any of these anchors from lemon or whenever Cuomo is in there They're they have an agenda, bro. People like real shit. You know why Tucker's up there? Because Tucker's the same off as he is on. CNN and all these networks, bro, they're not. And that's why these guys are killing it. And they're baffled by CNN and all these left-wing political people
Starting point is 00:13:52 are going down, but look at this. Adam. Yeah, well, let's just kind of go back a second. Okay, just think about where we're at in America right now. This is actually- Here we go. Here we are, guys. Come by out.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Not too long ago, 40 years ago, 40 years ago, the beginning of our lifetime, there was one king of late night. His name was Johnny Carson. Best. If you made it. Johnny. And that, it was like the Walter Cronkite for news in the 60s. What have you? Johnny Carson in the 70s, 80s. There was, like, if you made it onto Carson as a comedian as a performance. That's it done You're now famous remember comedians would do their four-minute bit and if they got invited to the couch Yeah, that was like you were a mate. I mean Tom when you made it to the couch that one time in 1976 Yeah, you started off in comedy. It was like the groundbreaking. That was the business. I started right there It was at the house. I made it here. That's what I think God the biz docs here. They fired up
Starting point is 00:14:44 But now we're at we're at a point in America now where there's so much competition. Every single one of these they don't went from from from Carson and went to let no one letterman was a now that was two guys right now you have in the rankings of order you have Colbert Fallon Kimmel Kimmel, Seth Meyers. Coco. And who's Coco? Go on the Brian. Oh, Kona, Brian was the best. He's the best. He's the best. I love that.
Starting point is 00:15:10 You got what he got. But now he has contracts. It's so saturated. And they're all kind of cannibalizing each other. Each of these shows, like if you add up their numbers, Colbert is at 2.1 million, Fallon's at 1.3, Kimmel's a little over a million. So you're talking four and a half collective on the big three. Gutfield is beating Kimmel and Valent.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Yeah, Gutfield is at 2.3 million. So this is what I'm saying. This is like the five is number one. Hey, Tom. Thanks, buddy. We'll get right back to you. Thank you. Can I make my point? Yeah, baby. Cisco and Ebert over here, but here's the deal. Good folk. I watched it last night ironically. He's not a comedian. No.
Starting point is 00:15:51 He's not funny. He's not even that entertaining. He is himself. Exactly. Okay. He's not a standup comedian. He's entertaining. He's got opinions.
Starting point is 00:15:59 That's great. But when you have three, this is kind of what I was saying before. When you already know where the joke is going, and you have three Colbert, Kimmel, Fallon, and it just kind of, Fallon at one point was amazing with the roots when it first started doing the music. And then Carpool Karaoke is James Corden still doing it show by the way, I haven't seen that.
Starting point is 00:16:16 But- He's trying to get into that restaurant. He's having a- Essentially this is where I'm going with this. Godfeld has blue ocean strategy written all over him. Everyone's going this way. let's just go this way and let's just stay true to ourselves. I'm not shocked that he's the number one king of late night,
Starting point is 00:16:33 but it's not because he's super, super amazingly talented and hilarious and has awesome stuff. No, it's just that it's the same old shit over here on the left and he's just going to different direction. And you know what I got really worried about? I've said it to, I've said this before, COVID killed comedy for all those people because as soon as you start dancing and going Gag jab yourself with the buy. I'm done. Yeah, I'm gone
Starting point is 00:16:53 What's it? COVID or was it Trump? Because no Trump started it Trump started it. No, you're 100% but COVID killed it because when they did when they had needles on Whatever like jadgers. What the what what That was co-bear, that was insane. That made me go, why? Look at this shit, like, like, put a needle in your arm. That's just propaganda, but that's what I'm saying. That's where you know it was going. Thank you, don't forget.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Do you remember when John Stewart went on co-bear, and they talked about China, the Wilhelm lab? How uncomfortable was co-bear? Do you remember that? Oh, my mom. John Stewart's like, John Stewart, who is as liberal. Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:27 And as a bastion of liberal ideas, as it gets Bill Maard, John Stewart. And he's like, so how about that lab leak? Yeah. Cobair was like, no, it came, definitely came from a bat. Oh my God. Bat.
Starting point is 00:17:38 What bat do you know? It was John Stewart. It was that Stewart. With the, like, the unkept beard in the longer hair. Yeah, correct. And it's like, John Stewart's been in the tool shed behind his house for two years. That was it. Look at him.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Look at the body language. He would look how far that just and their best friends about 100% so it just it's I don't know. It's it's look. It's you guys set a lot. You made a very good point going back. I'll only one option. Now there's a lot of options.
Starting point is 00:18:04 The numbers you gave, gut filled beating, Kimmel and Fallon at the same time. I do have a recommendation for NBC. There's a guy you can get for, I can negotiate a good price for you guys. His name is Marcelo Hernandez. He's on SNL. I guarantee you, keep your eyes on him.
Starting point is 00:18:19 One of those two's gonna lose him. Either NBC's gonna pick him up or the other guy's gonna pick him up. That guy's gonna face us. I would watch that show. I would watch that show. I would watch that show. I'd love that's where you're going. No, I like that guy a lot.
Starting point is 00:18:28 He's a talent. You know what it is? Here's one of the biggest things that happens to everybody. You have to be aware of. You have to be aware of. So you go into the NBA. First time you go into the NBA, you play against the great ones. And you say say oh my god
Starting point is 00:18:45 I'm on the same floor with freaking Kobe Jordan. Oh my god. I can't believe I have to guard Jordan tonight Imagine you just got to the NBA You're Ruben Patterson you're guarding Michael Jordan your Byron Russell Brian Russell and you're guarding Michael Jordan or you're Dominique's world Dominique's brother Gerald Wilkins that Jordan's Yes, New York, oh, you know, so man, so what how was your day today? Dude, I can't even believe dog. Yeah, you know, when he was doing the turn, he made that one shot I didn't even how to block it. I tried I got close, but this guy there's a reason why I had to come and you having this conversation
Starting point is 00:19:19 It's a childlike conversation, right? So you know your comedian you get your first child like Marcelo called the other day Zoom. Yeah, you won't believe comedian, you get your first shout like Marcelo called the other day, zoom. You won't believe this, I'm this, and then he picks me up, and then he pulls us. And then we drive up, and then in front of this, and I cannot believe it, and I'm at Madison Square Garden, I'm like, I'm watching this guy. He could have gone 30 more minutes, I would have listened to him,
Starting point is 00:19:38 because I'm watching the kids dream, become a reality. It's a beautiful moment to witness man, when it becomes a reality, right? It's when you win in business. It's when you, you know, in so many different ways, when you become a parent the first time in your emotional and all that,
Starting point is 00:19:57 and then comes 10 years later. And then you become arrogant, ungrateful, you lose perspective, and then you're no longer that likeable. Now your inner is like, yeah,ateful, you lose perspective. And then you're no longer that likeable. Now your interview's like, yeah, we lost in the playoffs. So what, I'm still making 18 million here. I'm gonna go to my beautiful house.
Starting point is 00:20:13 I'm gonna go do this LeBron. Yeah, that's annoying. You know, hey, you know, you better do this or else. I don't care if I lose half my Republican voters. I don't give a shit. Your name is Jimmy Kim, Jimmy Kimmel. Yeah, that's annoying. It's disrespectful.
Starting point is 00:20:26 This man, when we come home at night, at that time, haven't watched this since Jay Leno. I want to let know as a 14 year old kid, just to watch the guy in Burbank. Burbank, yeah. We snuck in. Just to see this guy perform. And anyways, you watched him,
Starting point is 00:20:41 yeah, the fucking fun. He took shots at everybody, okay? You watch Conan. He's fun to just listen to, right? These guys became propaganda type of guys. They lost it, but they also became arrogant. They also became know-it-alls. They also forgot how awesome it was where a Jimmy Fallon, if you go watch Jimmy Fallon's,
Starting point is 00:21:02 what do you call it? Audition, audition, audition. I think you told me about it. You're blowing out of your mind. I mean, you watch this guy. You're like, then you want to see this guy win, right? Yeah. So sometimes somebody, I was talking to a guy yesterday
Starting point is 00:21:13 who's in deep trouble. And no, it's not Andrew Tate. Although he's also in trouble. But I was talking to this other guy. And I was saying to him, that guy's going in this trail of the Fallon Kimmel trail, where you're becoming annoying. and you're becoming too arrogant
Starting point is 00:21:27 I'm like who's who's he talking to that can kind of give him a different perspective because Sometimes when you're in the chemo position or a fallon position you're in a web And you're stuck and you no one's telling you what you need to hear to pivot to one direction No one's telling you what you need to hear, to pivot to one direction. Nobody is. Everybody around you is just telling the same, same, same, same, same, same, same, same, same. So you just keep going there and all of a sudden,
Starting point is 00:21:51 you become this arrogant guy that we have to fire and replace you with somebody else that's a little bit more excited to be there that can stay childlike. This is why the people who win long term stay childlike the longest. Elon Musk is still childlike. Whoever stays childlike whoever stays child like not child dish Child like the longest wins this morning, you know, we're sitting here saying what you're saying about Tom
Starting point is 00:22:12 You know what feeling I got from Tom this morning child like I got this corner got that corner got this corner got that corner got this corner got that corner It's like excited kid that's so many things to look forward to right so Being childlike has nothing to do with your age It has to do with a mindset to stay fresh especially when your job is to entertain If your job is to make deals who gives a shit? But if your job is to entertain you best-stage childlike and great gut feel to me. Yeah, every time I see him the guys childlike That's why you do you watch gut felt? Any of you guys? I've seen him.
Starting point is 00:22:47 I've seen his clips. I watch him on YouTube. I like his monologues. You can tell, you know what I like about his monologues? You'll say, Joker's like, yeah, that was not a good one. Let me rip this one out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know what, that was good.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Okay, you guys like that one. He has a lot of nachos. He's got a lot of nachos. So that's the thing. And past you, you know, a different one. He's in front of a live audience. Yeah. There's people there, which adds another element to it
Starting point is 00:23:06 which I like. I just, I wanna know, like if you're the CBS show runner, the executive, if you're doing NBC, ABC, and it was just the circle back, 2016, 27th, it's so easy to just start shitting on Trump. It's such a weird time in America. Of course you are. And they leave me, they would mess with Obama, to just start shitting on Trump. It's such a weird time in America. Yeah. Of course you are.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And they, believe me, they would mess with Obama nowhere near Trump. I mean, not even close. At what point does the showrunner or the producer say, he, listen, we've officially lost half our audience. Why don't we be the ones to like bring this back and just a little, let's beat, let's say your, your, because, because Fallon doesn't go over the top, like Kimmel or Colbert. Bring this back in just a little let's beat let's say you're you're because
Starting point is 00:23:45 Fallen doesn't go over the top like Kimmel or Colbert so I'm just wondering are they they must see these numbers and they must be like what are we doing? It's late. I think I think it's laziness to Tom not to cut you up I think it's laziness and as a production team truck like what why talk about anything else? Just trump it up, but I like, what, why talk about anything else? Just Trump it up. But I, I like what you said, I would want, all it took is one of them, the good guys, let everybody talk about Trump. That's all everybody's talking about. Let's just be creative. Let's go talk about other shit, not just this guy. And like I said, I've said this before, CNN, the only
Starting point is 00:24:18 way, because CNN's losing money left and right. The only way they're going to end center and center is if I'm talking right now, Trump, San is I don't know if it's going to help them if Trump wins the election CNN's going to be right back on top. That's all they're going to do. That's all you're going to talk about. I think the San this is going to hurt everybody's ratings because there's nothing that's funny about him. Yeah, you know, you get back to the San because you've got the job. You you you good Christian wholesome man. Let's hear from our community. I think you I think you get think you get to the core of it. You're asking, is there a showrunner?
Starting point is 00:24:47 I think they all live in a bubble. They're living in a bubble, which orange man, bad conservative slap-home, anti-vaxxers, or unpeat triadic, and they're loons, or they're fringe, they're right-wing fringe. When you do that, you are ignoring the mass of the audience.
Starting point is 00:25:02 And I think there was a day where that was cared about. But I think there was a day where that was cared about, but I think media in the bubble, I honestly don't think those late, and I think they are, to a large degree, they're reading talking points, and it is kind of propagandist. I remember Letterman's first show on CBS,
Starting point is 00:25:19 after the deals were done, the big thing, they opened the Ed Sullivan, the editor in New York, Letterman does his first show. He's doing his opening monologue, After the deals were done, the big thing, they opened the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York, Letterman does this for show. He's doing his opening monologue. And Letterman had this real nostalgic sense about NBC because NBC gave him a shot. He was almost the successor to Johnny Carson. He ends up on the after Johnny Carson saw it.
Starting point is 00:25:39 It was amazing. He cracks these two jokes. And then his buddy, Tom Brokaw, NBC News guy, cameos, walks into the CBS studio, takes the big cue cards and says, Dave, I'm really disappointed. Those last two jokes were the intellectual property of NBC. I'm taking him down the street and he walks off the stage and Letterman looks at the camera and says, and this was the shot for Warren Littlefield at NBC. He says, that's odd. I didn't think you could use intellectual property and NBC in the same sentence. Oh, wow. And it was, but it was funny and it was
Starting point is 00:26:17 truly funny. And you looked at the balance and you looked at what Leno was doing and what Letterman was doing. And it wasn't political slap on parade. And I think they've lost that. I think now media is in a bubble and they've lost it. I think something that you said that I want to highlight and go deeper on is the writers. So who are the writers? Conan O'Brien was that writer, by the way. Yeah, at one point.
Starting point is 00:26:39 On the chair we gave the Letterman. Yep. But who are the writers? Well, if you talk about, you know, 10 to 1 liberal professors to conservative professors at school So if you go to school or if you're in the media entertainment writing Performing liberal arts liberal art part of the school you tend to be more liberal. So now Just using basic numbers. Let's say there's 10 applicants and nine of them lean liberal Right. Yeah, I mean you did comedy how many nine of them lean liberal, right? Yeah. I mean, you did comedy.
Starting point is 00:27:05 How many are more conservative versus liberal in comedy? In comedy. Comedy is a lot more. 80, 90%. 90%. Yeah, 100%. So that's the candidates. That's the pool of talent.
Starting point is 00:27:15 So that's what they're going to start writing to them. So I mean, who's doing all the writing? The Jews. I mean, they're doing it. No, it's a little... Can't tell Adam. Typically, more liberal minded people. And that's who's writing these jokes. So I think you're're doing it. No, it's, it's, it's, typically more liberal minded people. And that's why who's writing these jokes?
Starting point is 00:27:26 So it, I think you're absolutely spot on. It's not that they're reading talking points from, 100% on the provider. On the provider. Let's, let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story with Microsoft GPT Tom. They originally put a billion into it. Now they're going to 10 billion.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Let's read this article here that we have. So Microsoft reportedly plans to invest 10 billion dollars of creative of a Buzzy AI tool chat GBT. This is an NBC and BC news story. A startup behind a popular AI tool chat GBT as part of a funding round that would value open AI 29 billion dollars according to reports. The deal would give Microsoft a 75% share of open AI profits until it recoups its investment after which the company would assume a 49% stake in open AI. Damn. Like, 49% the report state that the deal has not been finalized yet and that the plan
Starting point is 00:28:20 was to close the deal by the end of 2022. Open AI chat, GPT is natural, language processing model, which can generate next that appears to be written by human. It is widely used to be developing code and writing essays this spend on chat GPD may help Microsoft in its web search efforts town. Microsoft is a genius. And you look back, once upon a time, Apple was struggling.
Starting point is 00:28:42 And Steve Jobs calls Bill Gates and says, listen, Apple is going to go bankrupt but we need your help. We need, and Gates came up with $150 million and it was on the cover of Time Magazine, Steve Jobs on the phone. This is, thank you Bill, the world is a better place because Apple and Microsoft can coexist. Microsoft sold that a couple years later for $550 million. Had they held that until Apple peak last February, you know if that would have been worth, $122 billion. If they would have held it. If they would have held it. And by the way, they thought they had made bank. Hey, we gave Apple 150.
Starting point is 00:29:24 We just got $ got 550 back, half a billion, wahoo. Microsoft is really smart about this stuff, and you notice they're holding it at 49%. And by the way, they've already invested a billion in this. They know what they're doing, and they're on top of it, and they're gonna make money on this.
Starting point is 00:29:40 Remember, do you remember something called Enkarta? It's funny, do you know what that is? Enkarta? Enkarta was a CD. It's like a little DVD CD. And it was an unbelievable dictionary. It was like four times the content of the set of world book and cyclopedias
Starting point is 00:29:56 that everybody remembers what those were. And that was what Microsoft believed was, there it is, 1995 was going, was an information resource for your computer. That was what Microsoft believed was, there it is, 1995 was an information resource for your computer. And remember, Microsoft said, this internet thing is probably gonna come and go because they saw it like Prodigy or AOL. So they were wrong about that. Since that moment, Microsoft has not been wrong.
Starting point is 00:30:21 These guys are gonna make money on this and this is a really smart move. And you go back and look at what they did with Apple. They're a king maker. Do you think OpenAI has what it takes to be a trillion dollar company? I mean, another trillion dollar company? Do you think it has a shadow being a trillion dollar company in 10 years? Absolutely. Okay, so that's a half a billion dollar valuation added to Microsoft. Yeah, at least. Well, I mean, 49% is you're talking about. You mean half a trillion.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Half a trillion, what did I say? You said half a billion. Half a billion is nothing. It's a half a trillion dollars. Yeah, this is another 500 million. Sorry, half a trillion dollars. Yeah, 500 billion dollars, add its evaluation. Gotcha.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Yeah, that's another half a billion on the Microsoft stock price. I am surprised others are not going in. This, every once in a while, you get some kind of a company that comes along like this that you're seeing the results of what it's capable of doing. We're not talking about FTX, you know, we're talking about, you can sit there.
Starting point is 00:31:17 You know what the biggest complain is? Yesterday I posted a video about what is Chad GBT and who's behind it. You know what's the most common tweet I got back from people? Here's the most common response. Stop talking about Chad GBT and who's behind it? You know what's the most common tweet I got back from people? Here's the most common response. Stop talking about Chad GBT. I use it daily and every time you guys talk about it, the website crashes.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Yeah, you're right. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, totally. So you shot that, did it go out yet? What do you mean? Did the video go out? Did you went out yesterday? Okay, I want to watch that because here's the question I have.
Starting point is 00:31:43 Yeah, generally, sometimes it's better to ask questions. I mean, I don't know much about this. Why are people using it? Because my assumption at least initially is, hey, I'm a 20 year old college kid, time to write that essay. Thanks, chat, GBT. So why are people using it?
Starting point is 00:31:58 Like, what are they using it for? I'm not doubting why someone would use it. Adam, what are the reasons they're using it? Ready for this? And this is off school. Right now? Right now, I could say this. I could go on it use it. Adam, what are the reasons they're using? Ready for this? And this is off school. Right now. Right now, I could say this. I could go on it right now.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Yeah, right now. I could say this. I need a, I need a sketch shot Friday. I need some ideas. I just put in a little search thing. Come up with 50 sketch ideas. What it says. For rock,
Starting point is 00:32:19 for rock, is that capacity right now? We can't even get in. That's how many people are trying to get up. That's how many college kids are trying to get through. S. R. It's late. Adam Tom. He's talking. It's sheet. It's basically doing all the work for you so you don't have to. It's basically
Starting point is 00:32:32 make it's the robots doing all the work. And I mean, then you could take it's it's I don't know, bro. So so writing papers. It could buy the paper. Having this. I think it's good. So for example, I'll give you I'll give you an idea. So let's just say you're about to interview Elon Musk. Or you're about to interview. You heard about that. It's coming up.
Starting point is 00:32:51 You're about to interview whoever. Let's just say you're interviewing somebody you're looking for too. You say, give me 10 questions. No one's ever asked Elon Musk in an interview. It'll be the next questions. And make it original, too. Hey, give me, it can now write code. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:33:09 It can write code. It can make rap songs. It can make, it can make, I mean, it's the capability. And by the way, this is 1.0. Yeah. This is not 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, not at all. This is 1.0, go ahead, Tom. What I said, but I'll ask one quick question.
Starting point is 00:33:30 The usage of this thing is so spread wide. It is like the internet for AI, if you think of it that way, it's that big. When do you think they will have on a trailing 12 month basis, a billion dollars in revenue. And I'll help you out. Your answer will be in months.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Wow. How many months until they will have a trailing billion dollars in revenue? Six months. What are the revenue sources? Is it advertising? Because is this open to the public? How do they make money?
Starting point is 00:34:01 Usages, the answer is 17 months. Before the end of 2024, they will be running a billion dollar revenue company. Not valuation because of VC thought, oh, I'll give you your unicorn valuation, revenue. Okay. And GPT-4, there we go. GPT-4, there it is, is coming
Starting point is 00:34:24 and that's just gonna accelerate it further. And GPT-4, there it is, is coming and that's just gonna accelerate it further. And GPT, by the way, Thiel is putting a billion dollars on here. The Planetary Guys. Are they public yet, huh? Palantary Guys. Palantary. Yeah, sorry, sorry. Sorry, sorry.
Starting point is 00:34:36 How are they driving revenue? Is it all? Oh, it's gonna be $7.99 a week. I believe it's gonna be $7. Can you look to see how much it's gonna be per week? Yep, you have to pay for it. Yeah, this is... It's a plug-in license.
Starting point is 00:34:46 That's basically the way it works. Plug into whatever you want. What do you plug it into? You can plug it into a turnpaper website. And so you and I run a turnpaper website. People can go and build turnpaper. We pay a plug-in licensing for you every time it's used. Well, there's a subscription model built into it.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Correct. But is that the way they're going to make the majority of their, their revenue or is it going to be sponsors advertising that kind of stuff? Ad revenue. I, I think it's D all of the above. And because like right now, Adam, you could go in and it'll print something that's only like two or three pages for you or like a page. You have to pay to get the full.
Starting point is 00:35:21 You know, I check. By the way, when did this launch? A month or two ago? November, November, November. November. Wow. It launched at in six. It's the fastest ever to get to a million users by days. How do you think Rob got all this?
Starting point is 00:35:32 You think Rob did this on the whole shit? Rob didn't do it. Rob didn't even do it. By the way, by the way, what you get podcasts out here's what people don't even know. This is why Greg Gutfield's beating every time. That's it. That's who's writing this monologue writers.
Starting point is 00:35:47 You just call back. I think I'm coming. That's a good one. It's now a second. Call back. Hi, let's skip to the next story. Here we figured, if you can get into chat GBT, put a nickel in it. You're going to make some money on it.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Jerome Powell. No nickel. Jerome Powell warns federal reserve should not take climate change, should not tackle climate change and social issues as he slaps down woke colleagues. Ooh, that's not good to do that in that space. All right, let's see what he says here. What page are we on?
Starting point is 00:36:17 It's supposed to be seven, there you go. Okay, federal reserve chair Jerome Powell caution that the Fed must resist the temptation to tackle social issues such as climate change, saying that taking on new goals such as climate or social policy without a clear statutory mandate would undermine the case for the Fed's independence. Powell emphasized that the Fed's regulatory powers give it a narrow role to ensure financial institutions appropriately manage the risks they face from climate change,
Starting point is 00:36:46 but it should not be a climate policy maker. He also stated that decisions about policies to directly address climate change should be made by the elected branches of the government and must reflect the public's will as expressed through elections. What are your thoughts? By the way, tomorrow, Vivek, who's going to be on, he wrote the book, a woke, and a couple of other books on this topic, one of the book on this topic, he'll be here ESG. So what Tom is, is what he's really saying is ESG can apply to corporations, but not
Starting point is 00:37:17 to the federal reserve. Let us do our part. Don't judge us with our ESG score, or is he just saying, let's not get the two confused, let's run a business here. Yeah, I think we just talked about his independence. He's saying, listen, without a clear mandate, you're going to undermine our independence. We're supposed to independently look all over the economy, all over legislation and everything and saying, where should interest rates discount rates and these other things be? We're supposed to be independent on that.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Now you're saying that rates and other things would move and over night banking rates would change if they want to penalize institutions or industries? No. I'm with Powell here. It's like, all right, I know everybody wants to do, and by the way, world economic forum, tomorrow they're getting together in Davos, you know, it's coming up. Listen, most of the climate change saying is income redistribution. If you take a look, or it's really going on there. And all he's saying is, hey, we're supposed to be independent fueling the economy with everything that's in that.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Leave us alone and do this because unless there's a mandate to do this, you elected guys do it. You program guys do it. You tax guys to it. And I think that's all he's saying, and I think he's right. I just wanna say one thing about Jerome Powell, and just I'm gonna reiterate this and reiterate this.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Jerome Powell is the most important person in America today. Yeah, you said that. It's not Trump, it's not Biden, it's not Elon Musk, it's not this person that, Jerome Powell, as Jerome Powell goes, the country goes at this point. Everything that's going on with inflation and money printing and stimulus checks and Everything I mean is there is there is there a person even on Jerome Powell's level right now Including the president of the United States is anybody even touching Jerome Powell's status as far as the most important American in the world right now
Starting point is 00:39:02 Anybody he's up there. He's up there with the amount of influence that he has, but what's your point with climate change? I have nothing about climate change. It's just the fact that that's the stance that he's taking is a very, very... Yeah, but this is about climate change. We know he's the most powerful guy. But most people don't know that.
Starting point is 00:39:18 But I understand that. So for a guy, this powerful, to say what he says about climate change. What's he saying to his peers? You know what it's like? It's kind of like when John Stuart went to his buddy and he says, so what do you think about the fact that the virus was leaked from Wuhan lab? Oh, he wasn't not a bad.
Starting point is 00:39:36 No, it's not a bad one. It's the last time he saw a bad. So so Jerome Powell is essentially calling out his peers the same way Bill Mar is calling out his own side. It's the same way Stephen A Smith is calling out his peers the same way Bill Mar is calling out his own side. It's the same way Stephen A Smith is calling out his own side. It is a very tough position to be in because when you get invited to those parties which Jerome Powell is going to be at, people are going to go up to him and they're going to say, why would you make those kind of comments? You know, how much
Starting point is 00:40:01 progress we were making with climate change and you say something like that. And you know the media on the opposite side, our enemy is going to pick it up. We have to stay united. You can't say something like that. So for a guy like that to say that, you know, it just comes across as there is at least somebody with logic that is thinking the way that Jerome Powell is thinking. By the way, don't forget who nominated Jerome Powell. It was Trump.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Biden kept him. Yeah, so you hear you have someone that's Politically agnostic and seven years you work for David David Rubenstein Our good friend. Yeah, seven years. Wow. Yeah, you work for David Rubenstein So and he's saying this on the eve of Davos, which is coming up over the next seven That's what I'm saying for him him to say that with the timing of it. I think he's given the other Fed Board of Governors also air cover. He's given them air cover. From the top, he's saying, we're not going to get involved in this and doing it.
Starting point is 00:40:55 So he would be giving someone like, let's say, I'm on the board in St. Louis, the Fed in St. Louis. He's giving me some air cover because the boss is saying, hey, we're going to worry about fiscal policy and you elected officials, everybody else, they're flying your highly pollutant private jets into Davos at this very moment. You guys can talk about global warming. Right. And Tom, just think of just, he's giving me air cover. Yeah. You'll know this. I mean, what is the purpose of the Fed? It's there to, you know, stamp down inflation, price of goods, unemployment, keep the money supply, it has nothing to do with social issues
Starting point is 00:41:34 or ESG or anything like that. So that just, that just do your job and that's his job. Independently turn the knobs that help the economy for everyone. Right. So respect to Powell. Good to see he's coming out and saying these things is what I'm saying because his voice carries a lot of hate. We need more of this.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Okay, so here's another story. As white collar layoffs rise, blue collar resilience, faces test in 2023. This is a Wall Street Journal story. So page six, bottom. White collar layoffs are starting to rise, and it's uncertain if this trend will spread the blue color industries as interest rates increase. According to the Labor Department data,
Starting point is 00:42:13 average layoffs and finance and insurance industry went from September to November nearly doubled from a year earlier. Job cuts and real estate leasing brokerage and information also increased by 20%, and 14 percent over the same period. However, manufacturers, leisure and hospitality and retail sectors laid off fewer workers in a three months through November compared to a year ago. Blue Conor sectors are less affected by interest rates, but if demand softens, they might hesitate
Starting point is 00:42:41 to fire frontline workers. They struggle to hire and retain during the pandemic. Tom, is there anything to this story we need to be paying attention to? Yes, there is. We were talking yesterday in the pocket, no, day before yesterday in the podcast, we talked about all the stats and the credit card
Starting point is 00:42:58 and you talked about, it's just a matter of time, it's a ticking bomb, you're just kicking the can down the road. First of all, we have to remember things in America are mostly manufactured in China and offshore. But the manufacturing we do have in America, if those consumers slow down, so I agree with the headline, blue collar resilience faces a test. And the resilience is going to be the resilience and consumer spending, and whether they're buying things that are made here in America, and if they're not,, a lot of those blue collar folks are going to have some challenges.
Starting point is 00:43:29 There's layoffs going all over the place. You saw Google laid off 15% in three different divisions. CFO Ruth Porat, really, really sharp. She's out there, what Google calls other bets, laying off, laying off, laying off. And that's all because of demand. And she's saying it's demand-based. They're not seeing the demand for the other bets at off, laying off, laying off, and that's all because of demand. And she's saying it's demand-based. They're not seeing the demand for the other bets at Google's making. So if credit cards and other things start reducing demand for physical things, because Google's
Starting point is 00:43:54 IT, then yeah, I think BlueColor halfway through this year, if it's a real recession, I think we should be seeing some of that. And I don't look forward to it. It's going to hurt Core America. I'll add to that, Tom, you know, likes to give them more macro perspective. I'll give more of the micro perspective, how that affects you as your life. Well, I'm going to channel my inner Warren Buffett, you know, the one way to be recession proof or inflation proof is to be the best at your job. So we talked about which teachers should get raises and which teachers should be fired.
Starting point is 00:44:22 And you think that you should fire the bottom 10, 20%. There's no question about that. No question. So if you suck at your job, you're probably gonna get fired. But if you're great at your job, you're probably gonna keep your job, you're probably gonna get a raise. And God forbid, your company has layoffs,
Starting point is 00:44:36 you're just gonna be a job waiting for you. So at the end of the day, that comes down to personal responsibility, personal accountability, personal finance. If you're the shit at your job, not shitty at your job, you're gonna have a job forever. If you suck, good ridden. Get on that chat AI and start using the shit out of it right now.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Exactly, right turn papers for people. Right turn papers. People are local genius. Yeah, that's wonderful. Thank you. But I think also something what Adam said is, you know what, maybe take it easy on discretionary spending first half of the year. Maybe take it, save that money. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Save that money, save it like a few dollars and see how this is going to play out. You know, you see those maps, those, they call them the spaghetti maps with all the possible tracks of a hurricane that's coming toward Florida or the Gulf Coast, right? Or America. You should be thinking of that. Like you don't know where it's going to hit, but at some point this year, there's going to be a storm. What do you do? Make sure you've got your coat. Make sure you've
Starting point is 00:45:28 kind of ease up on the discretionary spending a little bit and just and just be ready for whatever, whatever it brings. And if it's an easy year, buy yourself a little extra at the holidays. Yeah, I'm thinking of right now. I'm sorry. I went, I'm going to remember there was a hurricane coming to hit like Florida. And then there was like spaghetti maps. And then Trump like drew in like marker or crayon. Like it could also go here. It's like, uh, Trump, he's trying. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:55 I remember this. He completely just like, I hope everybody heard Adam's point in my follow up. Maybe be prudent this year. Look out for yourself. And then if the year doesn't turn out that bad, get yourself a little something nice. Ultimately what I'm saying is if there's a wall there,
Starting point is 00:46:09 you know, just find a way to go over the wall and just get around that wall, buddy. It's so funny. Draw yourself an extra little spaghetti cone over there. All right, let's do another story here with Bill Cosby. And then I want to go into the declassified documents with President Biden. If you want to go to page 10, if we go to page 10 here,
Starting point is 00:46:29 by the way, what we may do is to have the audience follow with us. We may give the PDF for people to be able to follow with us as well. It's going to be smart. Something to be thinking about. OK, so Bill Cosby, victims slam his plan to tour this year. Victims of Bill Cosby have expressed their anger at the comedian's plan for comeback tour after his sexual assault conviction was overturned in 2021.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Andrew Constant, who's testimony played a crucial role in Cosby's 2018 conviction said that, if anybody deserves a comeback tour, it's the woman he traumatized and abused. Other victims echoed the similar sentiments, expressing their belief that Cosby's reputation is damaged beyond repair, and that he will continue to face protests
Starting point is 00:47:10 and negative reactions from audiences. Cosby has been accused of sexual assault by around 45 women and spent three years in prison for the crime. So good idea, bad idea. I mean, all I think about is that first show, if you, if I'm willing to bet, most people would go to the show just to see who's showing up.
Starting point is 00:47:29 100% to see how they're gonna react for this guy having the audacity to do this. So is he doing it for money? I don't think so. I think he's got money. Is he doing it because he wants to go set the record straight? Bad way of doing it. What do you think about the idea of him going on the score?
Starting point is 00:47:46 I mean, I think about how old is he? He's falling apart. One of his eyes stopped working. I have an 80 something years old. He's dude, he, how old is he? I'm gonna say 85, what, 85? 85 years old, right? Pat, either he just doesn't want to be home.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Yeah, he's ours from being an organ donor. Yeah, there's two right, either he just not, does not want to be home with, you know, the, I just want to deal with that. Or he's genuinely loves comedy, which I heard. I watched the comedian, which is an old thing, with Jerry Seinfeld and Ornie Adams. And they went to go see Bill Cosby in the theater, day shows, packed sold out, and he would do Rob,
Starting point is 00:48:21 I think two and a half hours and just sit there and people would come, I think he's doing it. Him, personally, he's doing it because he just, bro, he's a comedian and he's been locked up and he's been away. Think about what his first joke is gonna be. Think about the first thing that's gonna come out of his mouth. So I just flew in from down, I'm just going to mine.
Starting point is 00:48:37 All right. I think I just flew in from jail. Who's gonna sell the tickets to this thing? This is the put you to sleep to our sponsor by Roofie. You know, what are we? That's a sponsor. I'm, this is a very, very weird situation. And there's another comedian that just had a YouTube video
Starting point is 00:48:54 come out about him. I'm not gonna say any names that, it's just what it's possibly in some dates. By the way. We started dancing, canceling some dates from his other comedian that had a documentary come out of bottom. That's not good.
Starting point is 00:49:05 I mean, do people, if you have fans, some people, some fans don't care. It'd be interesting, Tom brought up a good point. Who's gonna sell tickets to this? Like, Andrew Take got the platform for misogynistic comments from PayPal, from Stripe. He couldn't actually receive income, but this guy was convicted of raping women.
Starting point is 00:49:24 He's gonna go out on tour. Is ticket master going to be the one that's going to sell those tickets? One of the sell? We got the venue too. I mean, and hotels, you know, Native Americans running the regional casinos that are very popular, Chalk Talk, casinos and things like that. Which one of those is going to put their brand up, Pat, and allow to put Bill Cosby's name on the big sign in front of their brand. MGM presents Bill Cosby.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Yeah, I don't know. I don't see any major brands distancing thing, acknowledging him I wanted to promote this guy. I just don't see it. Who's gonna put their name on an 85 year old guy? You're gonna attach your wagon to this guy? The tail end of his career when he's trying to clean up his legacy, you're like, all right.
Starting point is 00:50:05 And I guarantee you that HBO now presents Bill Cosby hell. Now I will guarantee you guys too. It'll sell out like that. I don't know. Who the hell is going to say? You're going to do it. There's a demand. I don't I don't this kind of like a train wreck.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Everyone was a hard wreck. No, no, I don't think it's going to it's like the same reason people can cannot wait to go watch Chris Rock's show. The first time he's going to talk about what he's going to talk about. You know, do you guys see Eddie Murphy speech this week when he won? And he says, Hey, 46 years I've been an actor, I've been in the entertainment business 46 years, 41 years acting. This is the first time I'm winning this.
Starting point is 00:50:37 And he says, there's three things I don't know my career, mind your own business, pay your own taxes and keep Will Smith's wife out of it. Yeah, he was brilliant. What did Eddie Murphy win? I don't know what he won, but he won for this one show. And very interesting, different kind of an Eddie Murphy you're seeing nowadays. But for me with this, it's more about him.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Why is he doing it at 85? Okay. Why would you do it? What's your motive of wanting to do it? You really think people gonna, 45 women, they're saying one or two or three, you tell them a 45 of them, okay? You think that's, people gonna be like,
Starting point is 00:51:16 oh, you're forgiven, we'll move on. I don't think so, I don't know about that. I don't think so, but he can't leave his thing about it. He can't leave his house, because wherever he goes, there's gonna be, so maybe that's his only literally outlet to just get the hell out and sit in a room where people like him so he could tell,
Starting point is 00:51:32 I mean, what are you gonna talk about? I don't even get it. He's got a lot to talk about. Man, prison, three years of prison. I think he's just trying to clean up his legacy. That's uncleanable, but what if I'm women, what if I can't, can I ask the panel some questions? I want to give you some names.
Starting point is 00:51:48 You tell me the likelihood that they're guilty or not. Go ahead. I'll be on my opinion. Okay. OJ. Guilty. 100%. 100.
Starting point is 00:51:57 So OJ killed two people straight up and he's walking around. He lost his little suit. Looking for the killer. Adam and nothing going up. He wrote, he tried to release a book that said, I didn't do it, but if I did, this is how it goes. It was only because I loved her very much. Remember that?
Starting point is 00:52:12 You're at 100%, O.J.? O.J.? O.J.? Okay. So Cosby, 100%. He's a drug and girl. It was a long, Okay, Harvey Weinstein. Guilty.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Guilty on Foucault. He did all this, right? Yeah. Okay, Mrs. Weinstein is as you say in prison. I'm kind of on the, I don't know. 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, I don't know. But back to Cosby, we're all in a agreeance that OJ, Cosby and Weinstein are guilty AF.
Starting point is 00:52:42 Yeah. All right, I'm just putting that out there that we were acknowledging the fact that they are guilty 100% meanwhile OJ still out there yeah killing it yeah, but I'm pumped so we'll see what this guy Cosby has going on But it is I think Tom had nailed it what? Revenue I'm sorry what Location sponsor ticket master, any of those big different laments, they're going to promote. There's a big difference between those three and Tate.
Starting point is 00:53:11 Those three were found guilty. Convicted Tates will go into so you can't even put them in that category. Maybe you could put Michael Jackson in that category. Yeah, maybe you can put Kevin Spacey in that category. You can't put some people that are going through. No, that's why I give. Yeah, I don't I don't put Tate in that category. You can't put some people that are going through a run. But that's why I give, yeah. I don't put Tate in the category. And I also look at it.
Starting point is 00:53:28 But go in trust in Romanian courts here. But going through this, going through this with Bill Cosby. I don't know. I'm more talking about you're literally not going to win people over with this. You're not. You're legacy, you know, they know white. You know, the video came out, TMZ and his wife hit some and then he slaps her back.
Starting point is 00:53:53 And then the next day, he's on TMZ, he says, for 15 years, or for 20 years, I've been telling fighters, never lay your hands on the girl, never lay hands on that. And here I'm the idiot sitting here having to explain myself with TMZ He's an oppressed conference and they're asking them. I don't know if you can find the words I don't know if we can play the video. We can't play the video, but his words. He says what do you want me to do? Okay, let's talk about it Rob. If you want to turn off your mic. What do you want? What do you want to do? You want me to you want me to You want me to take time off to think about this
Starting point is 00:54:26 of my decision? I already know what's about decision. Yeah. What do you want me to do? You want me to take a moment and reflect, reflect for what? You want me to take time off this? He says, what about if in 2016, what he's trying to say is when the company sold, I could have taken a time off.
Starting point is 00:54:40 I don't need to do this anymore. I could have been done. Okay, what should the repercussions be? I take 30 days off. How does that hurt me? I told you guys, as we were going through COVID-19 pandemic, COVID-19 last 10 years, and I could sit it out. It's much like COVID.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Actually, me leaving hurts the company. It hurts my employees, hurts the fighters. Doesn't hurt me. I could have left in 2016 when the company was acquired by Endeavor. Do I need to reflect? I've been against this. I've have left in 2016 when the company was acquired by endeavor. Do I need to reflect? I've been against this. I've owned this. I'm telling you that I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Here's my punishment. I have to walk around for however long I live. This the point I wanted to make what he said here. Here's my punishment. I have to walk around for however long I live. And this is how I'm labeled now. My other punishment is that I'm sure a lot of people, whether it be in the media,
Starting point is 00:55:26 fighters, friends, acquaintances who had respect for me might not have that respect for me now. There's a lot of things I have to deal with for the rest of my life that's way more punishment than what I take a 30 or 60, the absence of. What he just said, by the way, when he's talking, if you've not seen this clip, you can tell he's getting choked up.
Starting point is 00:55:45 He's not gonna show his emotions because you can tell he knows he messed up, right? But the angle he took is, listen, this is for me forever. How long do you think this is gonna stay with Dana? Forever. How long do you think it's gonna stay with Cosby, with, uh, uh, uh, uh, posby? Forever. Posby.
Starting point is 00:56:07 Do you think he can do anything that he'll be forgiven for? No. This is permanent. Okay. If I were to ask you right now, watch this. I'm going to give you names. Tell me what's going to be with them till they're deathbed. You ready?
Starting point is 00:56:20 Clinton. Look what's the first thing you said. Cigar, Look what you said. All right, we can give me if you say him, boom, if you can go to Marlon Brando. Marlon Brando. Godfather. No, he was a prick on set and James Dean. That's a whole different story, right boy?
Starting point is 00:56:41 That's a complete different story. Now, if you don't know the the story go look up the story between James Dean and Marlon Brando. Oh, if I give you Kevin Spacey if I give you Mike if I give you any president I give you Bush second one. What are you gonna think? Second nine eleven nine more or do you if I give you John F. Kennedy? What's the first time I come to ask the nation? What else does it come to mind? Kevin, what else comes to mind? Merrill Monroe. What else comes to mind? What else comes to mind? Merrill Monroe. What else comes to mind?
Starting point is 00:57:05 You can listen. There are certain things that we as human beings are going to do that's permanent and there's nothing you can do about it. And trying to convince everybody how great of a human being you are is not helping. And it really sucks that. Just the way you live. You screwed up. And you got to live with it.
Starting point is 00:57:21 You could be the greatest, anything, whatever. Takes one little, like, like, like that joke. I think I told you guys that joke. They built a thousand bridges. The goddess guy, that's like, he's in the bar in Goat. Yeah, he's, yeah, that's the joke. He's like, he's in the bar and the guy's like, why the long face is like, you see that, you know,
Starting point is 00:57:40 they're them tell the joke. Why are you taking the joke, though? 12 times from the podcast. Go ahead. I'd never said the joke. It's over. But anyway, my point being, you can, they're them tell the joke. Why are you taking the joke? I said the joke 12 times. I'm the podcast go ahead. I never said the joke. It's over. But anyway, my point being, you're talking about the Godfuckers. I'm saying, no, what I'm saying is you could do anything
Starting point is 00:57:51 in this life like Bill Clinton, great, really, really good president, right? You're doing to him. What time is doing to you? Yeah, I can't, why do we write that? I can't, I can't work under these, because this is bad. I just can't do it right now.
Starting point is 00:58:01 But, but, but, but you're just a point. It takes one, you, all you could do whatever. It takes one go. One go or one cigar or one thing about it. And then that's your legacy. But I do like I re I respect manning up right off the bat and not letting the system say. That's why this is what we do. Dana's a leader. Dana's a G.
Starting point is 00:58:18 That's why Dana's a day. They they they manz up handles it and then says, what do you want me to do? Take 30 days off. Take 60 days off. Take what? what do you want me to do? Take 30 days off, take 60 days off, take what? What do you want me to do here, right? Versus, you know, you hear certain people say, well, let me tell you, I'm this, and I'm, let me tell you, it's the matrix, let me tell you, it's this, and no, man, just like, what position do you want to take?
Starting point is 00:58:39 This is sounding like no victim on the way this guy handled it. Dana, the way he's handling this, sounds like a I F top, I'm not a victim. Don't feel bad for me. My life's gonna suck because of this decision that I made, my kids are always in arguments, because what you did to dad, how can you tell me you're being a hypocrite?
Starting point is 00:58:59 He knows this, this is permanent, FYI. What this does is, this isn't about, you know, you know how they say success, there's levels to success. So let's talk about levels to success. What are levels to success? Okay. Levels to success is you were a high school freaking superstar. Shit. You got records in your high school. Damn it. When you go back, it's like, I'll bun you. You know, my records for a challenge. Polk high. Man, you guys should go back and look at my records in high school when I play basketball. My, my, the only stats you'll see with records with me is elbows. The other
Starting point is 00:59:35 day my coach called me from, he called me, we're having a conversation together with this guy from New Century City Basketball Association when I was playing at Equipark. He says, do you remember when we lost by 100 points? I said, do I remember? My dad's kept a trophy since 14 years old. Of course I remember. It's the only sports trophy I got. I wasn't an athlete like the two of you guys. By the way, just so you know, these two guys were superstars.
Starting point is 00:59:59 You go out with Vinny, Vinny throws a ball and the ball just keeps, it's still traveling in my view. Makes it look like it's nothing. Adam throws a ball. It's like keeps it's still traveling. Make sure to look back. It's nothing. Adam throws the ball. It's like he woke up. No prom, right? But no, you know, there's levels to sports. You have to have sharpest elbows in all of the.
Starting point is 01:00:12 There's levels to fighters. He won't guy. Hey, do you see that? I was a great fighter. He punched one guy in the face. He fell for the rest of his life. He's a great fighter. It's one punch.
Starting point is 01:00:20 Okay. That guy's a great gambler. That guy's this. There's levels to success. And there's levels to F ups. There's a great gambler. That guy's this, there's levels to success and there's levels to F ups. There's levels to F ups. Meaning, guys, these F up is a level on its own. Michael Jackson's F up is pretty up there. Oh, J's is. Oh, J. It's up there, right? Kevin Spacey is up there. They know why it is a bad F up. It ain't up there at the level
Starting point is 01:00:44 of these guys. No, like you know what I'm saying. So so there's a levels to f up to f up. You you want to do whatever you can to have the massive f ups in life. It's a it's those are the ones you want to avoid as much as possible because they are permanent and no matter what you do as much as we love redemption, we do love redemption. This is America. We're all about redemption. Certain F-ups, it's an asterisk. That's right next to you. You want to go into baseball hall of fame.
Starting point is 01:01:12 You deserve to go. Like I believe bonds belongs in a baseball hall of fame. You can put pre-steroids, post-eroids, just you can say size of hat, seven and a quarter, size of hat, eight and a quarter. I mean, that's all you got to put, you know what I'm saying? So, but anyways, props to Dana on the way he handled it. That was a great thing. And any major PR firm that you're going through targeted by a media trying to defame you,
Starting point is 01:01:38 which is going to happen as you get big, they do it to rogue and they do it to everybody. Rather than paying a half a million dollars to PR from in New York, just called Dana White. Yeah, so Dana, how should I handle this? Yeah, be honest. Or watch this handling of Dana White. It's a clinic he did. A lot one thing. Number one, he's giving a master class
Starting point is 01:01:56 on accountability and leadership. You could be accountable and be a leader even when you fuck up. I think that's when you have to be held accountable. But you bring up a very good point. There's levels to effing up. A few weeks ago, a month ago, we had our friend, the liver king here.
Starting point is 01:02:10 He's like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, relax guy, you don't need to, like, you did steroids. You didn't, oh, Jayne, kill somebody, two people. You weren't raping and pillaging. I mean, I don't know what you're doing in your spare time, liver king. I mean, you got that look. But all we know is that you have done steroids.
Starting point is 01:02:28 So like, put it a little context. He's like, thanks bro, I appreciate it. But he did lie to a lot of people. But Cosby and OJ, that's a different level like you're right versus Tate or liver king or whoever, that's different levels. All right, so let's continue. or liver king or whoever, at different levels.
Starting point is 01:02:42 All right, so let's continue.
