Starting point is 00:02:14 Some of them might be like, what was happening October 20th, 2020. Yes, they could come back into the time capsule that is the radcast. We appreciate you for making us the number one marketing and business show on Apple. We continue to hold that spot. We're about 40 days in.

Starting point is 00:02:32 We're not looking back, Chris. No looking back. Never, ever. If you're a first time listener, we appreciate you coming on. You're catching our weekly news edition. We have two episodes a week. We do a guest episode on Tuesdays

Starting point is 00:02:49 and our weekly business and marketing news on Fridays. Chris and I like to ham it up and have a good time while also trying to give you some insights that might not be as obvious as they might always seem. Try to bring it down to a practical level. Some of the things that are happening in business and marketing. And when we try to keep it in the business front, We know there's a lot of serious shit going on out there,

Starting point is 00:03:11 but we're here to talk business. And it starts with a smart play from M&M's. One of my favorite candies. They're partnering with gopuff, which made me stop for a second. Go puff. I thought it was like a... You've never used gopuff before?

Starting point is 00:03:28 No. Is that different than VistaCard? Same concept, but I think it was the basis was like for stoners. That's where my head's like a bunch of. Like a munchy's delivery service. Yeah. Go Puff. Go much.

Starting point is 00:03:43 But they're good. They're very good. So what's going to happen is, and this is brilliant because this happens at the offers, someone eats all the candy before all the kids get me. And we run out as the Halloween nurse, the trick-or-treaters come to the house. So now Go-Puff is partnering with Eminem. So they deliver same day Halloween candy so you don't run out. Smart.

Starting point is 00:04:07 Smart. Makes sense. The good way to get their name out there for sure. Halloween is what, 10, 11 days away? We're getting eerily close here. That's crazy. Nash, who's been a little under the weather, who's my youngest, he's seven and a half, has been, he's had his costume for about five days and he's worn it every day. He is officially a hot dog.

Starting point is 00:04:32 What is that he's a hot dog costume? That makes it even better. He's like just reping the hot dog. comes on from school. He puts on that fucking hot dog and he is running around the house. And he's been sick the last couple days. I've been home with him sick. And yesterday,

Starting point is 00:04:50 he's starting to finally feel better. I knew he's feeling better when he put the hot dog costume on. And he came in. I'm like cleaning up the kitchen. And he's like, there's a spill daddy on in the aisle four. They got a hot dog. And he's like laying in the floor.

Starting point is 00:05:05 Like he's got so funny. He'll come clean me up. I'm like, yeah. You're like, all right, you're ready to go back to school. Yeah. I told him I was going to catch up with them if I mustered up enough energy. Ooh, got him. Dad jokes galore.

Starting point is 00:05:21 The king. He relished the moment. Oh, my God. It's too much. But it has been quite fun watching Nash run around in a hot dog costume. It puts a smile on your face. I don't care who you are. You can get the biggest grown.

Starting point is 00:05:38 in the world when it has seven-year-olds running around in a hot dog costume it's entertaining so even if it's just 70-year-old it would still be probably entertaining to me yes so nash is geared up and ready and if you're not hey check out this partnership so you know that gopuff can deliver m&m straight to your destination so you don't leave those trick-or-treaters hanging out to dry the you don't want that yeah i debated whether i was going to bring this up and I said fucking I'm going to bring it up and it's because marron Morris has decided to leave country music and I just said don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Starting point is 00:06:19 Not a fan clearly. She disagrees with all the lyrics that are patriotic and a little too Americana for her. And so she's officially leaving country music. And that's what country music is, isn't it? What are we doing here? Just, and these people never cease to me. me, dude. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:06:41 Get a grip. Like, but she's going to cancel all the, the Jason Aldeans and all these people. It's like, it, we either have free speech. We can either sing,

Starting point is 00:06:50 they can even sing if you, no, we don't. If you don't like it, you can sing songs written by the state. Yeah. That has happened in history, approved songs.

Starting point is 00:06:59 Yeah. Or here's a thought. Go write some country music with different topics. Exactly. If that's how you feel. And she has. She's been poppy from the get-go. And so it's fine.

Starting point is 00:07:11 I get tired of her songs. They play them too much. But she's a talented artist. But I don't know why she's got to go make this profound thing that she's leaving country music. It's like, oh, God. Holy shit, people. She's a legend in her own mind, obviously. Clearly talented.

Starting point is 00:07:29 Some of these celebrities. I know. If you're out there and you want to cry a little tear because Mary Morris is leaving country music, we'll allow you to do that. So we just wanted to bring you all the happening news. And I brought this up because I'm in a country state of mine, Chris. I lit the House of Blues this last weekend, seeing my boys, Thousand Horses and Mourn's Eder's.

Starting point is 00:07:50 Really great show. I tell you what, this is a really interesting show. Number one, great artistry, thousand horses. If you haven't ever seen them, if you played them, if country music at all, if you looked them up and played a couple of hits, you like, okay, I've heard it on the radio. Amazing artist, Michael Hobbies of, friend. He's been on the show and we got the VIP treatment. I'm not going to lie. We were like right there on the floor, at a table getting served with like ropes around us like with a security

Starting point is 00:08:18 guard. The velvet ropes. Oh yeah. Yeah. Velvet ropes. And security like keeping people away from us. I was like I felt really important for a couple hours for the first time ever. And that's the way to do it. And then we got backstage in the blue room or whatever the hell, green room with Michael in the man after the show. Nicest guy on the face of the planet. He's a total rock star, by the way. Amazing showmanship. And then the brand is so nice.

Starting point is 00:08:46 They're from, go figure, they're from South Carolina. They're from Newberry boys, Southern guys. Amazing show. And Warren's Eaters was really good. But get this.

Starting point is 00:08:58 Girls were throwing bras on the stage at the end of his show. I felt like it was the weirdest. Man. Like, I know he's a good looking guy, really good artist. but it was just a little unexpected. It was clearly part of the show because one of the band guys

Starting point is 00:09:16 had a stick that they were putting the bras on. So it's obviously a thing. So this happens often for them. This happens often. And I was like, I was not expecting it. Rock stars do still exist. I know. It was.

Starting point is 00:09:31 He's got it going on. Anyway, really good show. House of Blues is awesome in Myrtle Beach. Not a lot I love about Myrtle Beach, but the House of Blues is still cool and a great place to see his show. So if you haven't, go listen to both a thousand horses and war insiders. You'll thank me that really good music. And a thousand horses is more like Southern Rock or just rock and roll.

Starting point is 00:09:52 They're country, but they're just fucking amazing musicians. So shout out to them and fascinating at the concert. Did your wife love it? She was unexpected too. Look, he's a good looking guy. Like, I was like, hey, I get it. But it just wasn't exactly. You just looked over and Nicole was reached under her shirt too and just doing a toss.

Starting point is 00:10:16 And you're like, what the hell? Honey, wait. You've got to see a new shirt on already. No. Oh, it was good. And he's cool. He's young and living his best life. He's like 24, 25.

Starting point is 00:10:33 And in other news, I thought this is good. And we'll get back to our business marketing. news. We've got to entertain a little bit. We're telling a little personal stories. I want you to know what it's all about. The TikTok. The TikTok is an unveiling. I thought this was clever as hell. They're expanding the reach of their content outside of just a platform. So they've unveiled the out of phone ad solution for brands. So if you're familiar with out of home is billboards and out of phone, which is super smart, playing off the words. because, again, most, 80% of advertising now is on the phone. So basically what they've done is you still have all these digital billboards that are up and around. And you can buy, get access to those ad platforms to buy a digital ad out of home placement. And what TikTok's doing is they're extending their content so that, okay, like either your existing content if you're a brand or trending content that, will then play in these digital placements.

Starting point is 00:11:40 So leveraging that content that's already made a hit on the phone platform into maybe a digital video on a billboard or in a movie theater or these other placements where you have digital out of boards, out of home boards. And so they're allowing brands to tie into that and sponsor that content. I think it's super smart because here's the thing. the content that is entertaining and the reason that people dig it on their phones, it will also resonate and grab attention elsewhere. If you're in a movie theater and you're catching one of those movie theater ads

Starting point is 00:12:20 or a digital video that's playing at the gas station, you see those now, that training content's going to be just as interesting there on that screen as it is on your phone. It got attention for a reason. So to tie into that and to build ads around it, is incredibly smart. And whoever came up without a phone, I'm sorry, I'm just an ad geek.

Starting point is 00:12:42 I'm going to geek out. That was a great wordplay. Yeah. Yes. So TikTok expanding. And so I'll say this, TikToks is really expanded their ad platform. You can now buy search ads,

Starting point is 00:12:56 essentially place ads that I go on there. And if you aren't paying attention, Google is certainly still the king, but between Instagram search and TikTok search, people look up shit there they look up recipes they look up product but how to do this yes and so you can buy ads around that search which shows intent the power of search ads has always been it's someone raising their hand i'm going i'm searching for this that's why they're so expensive the ads and so you can buy it within the platform and so if you aren't testing

Starting point is 00:13:35 TikTok if you're a brand, a company, whatever, now's the time to be doing it. They've got a lot of really great deals now too. They're cutting like getting aggressive, getting people to buy two for one, spend $100, get $100, a lot of ad credits and things. So there you go. We are not sponsored by TikTok, but I'm high on them right now with what they're doing from an ad platform standpoint. And out of phone is brilliant.

Starting point is 00:14:01 Speaking of ad platforms, Netflix expands ads. Advertising Opportunity and Ads Live Sports Sponsorships. Netflix introduces new advertising opportunities, including single title sponsorship, sponsorship of its live sports events in a binge ad format, a binge ad format, the three words I enjoy. Aiming to reward viewers and enhance brand visibility. So speaking of an appendge ad format, inserts brand spots amid viewers' been watching sessions.

Starting point is 00:14:35 So if you've been binge watching your favorite show, you're not going to, and they know you're like, you're going to watch all eight of those episodes. They're going to throw an ad in between. So they're getting you one way or another. Yes. We thought we'd escape the ads with the streaming platforms.

Starting point is 00:14:54 Yeah, exactly. It's the same thing with, and look, I have a T-shirt that says ad supported. So I'm, I can't hit the play. Don't like the player hit the game. Right. It's interesting because listening, I have a serious X-N.

Starting point is 00:15:05 And forever, that was the ad-free. You pay to get radio. And more or more, there's ads on stuff. There's now talking heads. It's like on some of my favorite like stations, it's like, this guy won't shut up. He talks for three minutes about something. And I'm like, I thought I'm paying for ad-free or talk-free. Yeah, yeah.

Starting point is 00:15:28 Express VPN. Here's a 30-second thing on why you need it. Yes. Like fast for, at least you can fast forward most of them. Most of them. Maybe at least when you're doing the vacay and the Caldera lab read, it's pretty quick. Exactly. It's quick and built it in.

Starting point is 00:15:48 Like we build our reads into it. We don't just blast you with pre-recorded stuff. Because let's be honest. Mid-sentence. If you're watching this, which you should be on either Instagram or YouTube or Facebook or one of the platforms, you've got to come and see the vacay lounge. that Chris is in, the chance that Storm might make it drop in. And you got to see, compare Ryan's skin to episodes last year because how glowing it is now because of Caldera Labs.

Starting point is 00:16:20 Let's be honest, Chris. The bags are exactly better. We're a lot heavier than they are now because you look much better. You know it. Dude. You can't get this look anywhere else except in a. bottle. And you know what, Chris, I happen to have a bottle right here. It's called the good. It's why this glow happens. Tell me more about it. It makes Ryan look good.

Starting point is 00:16:47 This is not, this doesn't just happen. Like, I wish it did. Some of us just wake up naturally looking beautiful. And I have to use bottles of the best premium men's skin care line on the planet, which is called Air Labs. And the only reason this beard is actually starting to to look like a beard is because of the new beard serum. The beard. It's all these stuff, Chris, because it's the best. I love it. Yes, Caldera Lab.com.

Starting point is 00:17:16 Use rad. Ryan, get 20% off. Tell them I sent you. And look, I only sponsor and talk about what works. I use this product for two months before I was willing to talk about. I said, send me some stuff. I'm going to use it for two months. And if I like it, I'll talk about it.

Starting point is 00:17:35 And you know what? I knew because Ms. Offord suddenly couldn't resist this. That's right. After 10 years, she's, baby, you look it's good. I'm like, hey, just a glow. Oh, yeah, boy. Yes. So my secret weapon and your secret weapon needs to be caldera lab.com.

Starting point is 00:17:56 Rad Ryan, 20% off. It works. That's why I use it. And it's the bomb. Speaking of the bomb. Taylor Swift. Fricking Tay Swift always. She makes it always an appearance.

Starting point is 00:18:14 So she's had her concerts playing in movie theaters. The Eros Tour. And there's four takeaways from Variety. It makes a historic. It earned 95 to 97 million domestically and 130 million globally. From the, just the con, the film series. selling records for a concert film and demonstrating that variable pricing can work

Starting point is 00:18:39 for highly anticipated films the film's unconventional distribution and marketing along with emphasis, emphasis, on creating a communal theatrical experience show that innovation and movie distribution can be successful.

Starting point is 00:18:55 However, replicating the success of such films may be challenging for artists and studios without Swift's StarPact. Yeah, that's one last disclaimer, unless you're Taylor Swift or one of three other icons on the planet that could pull this shit off.

Starting point is 00:19:12 Dude, I invested in a movie. It premiered last Friday. Newport Beach Film Festival. Topper is the film. Nice. Yes, I do know that. I can tell you. How did it go?

Starting point is 00:19:24 It was great. It went great. I would have loved to have seen it. I was under the weather. But ain't no way we're doing $95 million. And we've got, and we have some. well-known Hollywood people in it.

Starting point is 00:19:39 But the movie industry to do what she did is damn near impossible at this point, I feel like. Yeah. Because you're going concert experience is usually about being at the concert. The live aspect, the fans that are around you. So watching the concert

Starting point is 00:19:58 in a theater it just feels like it's, I guess the music. You can turn it up. That's one thing. You are in a sound environment that they can blast that shit and make it feel ridiculous. So I guess I can understand that. But I never quite understood the watching of a... I guess if you couldn't cough up those like 400 bucks a ticket, this is the next thing. For only $75. You know, what a concert ticket used to be, probably. 30 million dollars. If terrorists has got to be a billionaire, right? Like, she's got to be getting close.

Starting point is 00:20:38 The fact that you do $130 million off of a recording of the concert is what do we even know what they did off the actual tour? It was hundreds of millions. Yeah, hundreds of millions. And just like, well, fuck it. How's she not a billionaire on just merch alone? Those Swifties buy everything. She should be unless she's getting a bad deal. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:21:03 Which, hey, maybe Scooter Braun's to blame. She's not getting her take on that. Right. He's still getting 8% of her merch forever in Lifetime. Oh, my God. Probably. Maybe, who knows. But I don't know that it tells us much of anything because I think the last point was the one.

Starting point is 00:21:22 Don't get too excited about showing concerts. It's Taylor Swift. And she's got more pull power than about any other star in the world right now. Yeah. She can touch anything right now. it'll be probably be golden. Yeah. Travis Kelsey.

Starting point is 00:21:39 Exactly. Oh, I could go somewhere there, but I'm going to leave it alone. Reality Defender has raised $15 million to detect text, video, and image deep fakes. It's a startup focused on detecting deep fakes and AI-generated contents, raised $15 million in a series A-fund. The funds will be used to expand the company's team and enhance its AI content detection models. It aims to stay ahead of evolving deep fake methods and models, offering an API and a web app to analyze videos,

Starting point is 00:22:16 audio text and images for signs of AI-driven alteration. It claims to achieve a high deep fake accuracy rate through an ensemble of detection models. That's some good writing there. Ensemble of detection models. It's a lot of nice copy in there. It's good. Give TechCrunch editor, all the credit there, TechCrunch.com brings us.

Starting point is 00:22:43 This, it's always going to be cops and robbers, and the robbers stay ahead of the cops or good guys, bad guys. So you got defects and people trying to detect them. So who stays ahead of who? Great idea, but I look at a company like this, and I wonder, how do you monetize outside of big, I think like a Microsoft, if they get it, if they become like the standard, some of the big companies that could really be.

Starting point is 00:23:12 Like a built-in software that's attached to your browser. Explorer, if it still existed. But I'll tell you this is an altered. Altered image. Yes. So anything that pops up on your screen, it's automatically detecting it. It says, but just no, it's rated D.F. Deep fake. Like the Tom Hanks ad for, what was it, the dental insurance company we talked about.

Starting point is 00:23:47 Yes. You see now, like on the social media where we all saw this during the pandemic, whereas like they're slapping the misinformation label on there, which I think, because even I'm noticing a lot more frequency you've seen deep fakes. And usually it's like a meme. It's funny stuff. It's not something serious. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:24:05 But I know there's people that are watching it that don't know it's a deep thing. If I send it to my dad, for example, right? Yeah, there's somebody who's think everything they see on the internet's real. Like, no filter. I know, man. No CGI, no filters. It's, I'm on the opposite. I'm at the point where I might believe 50% of what I see now.

Starting point is 00:24:28 Yeah. I'm cynical a little bit anyway. And now I'm like, I'm always wondering what to stick. is like what's there's something here. What's to sell? Yeah. Who's selling me what and why? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:24:42 But it can be entertaining. I wouldn't mind seeing, I don't know, Forrest Gump. I don't know, running in the Olympics or something. Oh, I've seen. There's definitely some really entertaining ones. And that's why I think it's going to continue just to blow up is there's so much comedy coming out of deep fakes. Yeah, I like watching Keanu. Keanu Reeves seems to always be the punch boy.

Starting point is 00:25:10 He always gets used for something, robbing a store or doing something. It's really not funny, but it's entertained because I know it's fake, and I don't hold that against him and judge him in any way. It's just some of the common players that always seem to rise up and get their personas taken as long as people know that shit's fake. But that's a scary thing. know that people are gullible. Yeah, I think you have people just hitting the share button

Starting point is 00:25:40 impulsively without maybe. That's all Facebook is now. I love my family, but like I have these ants that I get on. I really avoid Facebook like the plague, to be honest with you, but I get on there for 30 seconds. And it's my aunts have shared every conspiracy theory, every. And I'm like, oh, God. That and I've got every family friend I ever grew up with.

Starting point is 00:26:03 someone's imitating, creating a fake profile for them and then DMing me like for money. Yeah. And it's like my dad's best friend that I like could text him and be like, hey, bro. Like it there's just, I don't know, Facebook to me has become a little bit. I don't know. It's. I don't know. It's whatever filters do.

Starting point is 00:26:29 Oh, hold on. It's become too many, too mass. it's like Craigslist. Yes. And there's just so many people on. Everybody's on it. And so it was almost better when the early to mid adopters were on it because there was a level of, dare I say. Like when you needed, you needed a college email address to register at one point.

Starting point is 00:26:55 That was a long time ago. But I'm just talking about there was a level of, I don't know, civility. And common sense. Authenticity. That when you had the early to mid adopters. And now that it's everybody, it's, it, what do you say? Regress to the mean? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:27:18 It's something. Yeah. I don't have anything else to say. Yeah. It's like the yard sale. Yeah. Which I like having a good yard sale. It's just don't come try to knock down my $1 price to $0.50.

Starting point is 00:27:30 It's a dollar, damn it. No matter when I price it at. They want a half price. God. All right. It's $2. You can have it for a dollar. People have the negotiation.

Starting point is 00:27:38 I'm going to double a price just for you, then cut it in half. Next, Elon Musk. This was like hitting all my feed stuff earlier. Is testing an annual fee for unverified accounts? Twitter, now known as X. If you've been paying attention, I've been calling out how long we're going to have to say that. It's testing a subscription program called Not a Bot. in New Zealand and the Philippines to be rolled out worldwide requiring new users to pay a dollar annual fee for posting and interacting.

Starting point is 00:28:10 However, the fee is waived if they subscribed to the $3.99 per month premium service affecting only new web accounts and not existing users. Is this kind of the equivalent of when you fill out a form, you have to do the little security things like draw a bus or something or pick out like the stuff? Yeah. That keeps spam from planning like getting into your mailbox because that's an extra step that a bot really can't take. And when you can enter the CAPTC, this is like the CAPTC for Twitter because if you have to pay a dollar, it's like an extra step so you don't get these tons of fake accounts created, which is what happens every day. So that's what he's trying to weed out. Yeah, it's sure it's about the money, but it's also about weeding out the bots, not a bot. and there is, I think, a worthwhile venture in that regard.

Starting point is 00:29:06 But. You agree. And it's a freaking dollar. I like how, yeah, and honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if some of these bot farms just paid a dollar. Yeah. But I think it's the extra step probably of paying the dollar and tying it to a payment account and all that, which would probably cut down bots about 90%. I think that's what he's trying to do. I hope so.

Starting point is 00:29:29 I hope so because it's troll city on Twitter. Yeah, man. It's almost, it's like the deep fake thing. Like you're creating influence out of nothing with an agenda. Yeah, and I'll get on Twitter a couple times a week. It's not my biggest platform, clearly, but I'll get on there for news or just to read through it. And I'm in there for 10 minutes, and it's the same thing.

Starting point is 00:29:53 I'll read a few of the comments or replies. I'm like, that just sounds. like someone trolling or egging or they might be real they're probably a bot yeah no i agree i think it's i like it less for low people getting fake interaction more i think there's people that maliciously use it to push opinions politically specifically that i think just like a troll dude there's just people out there that just want to create chaos yes And I do think foreign countries probably definitely use it. Oh, 100%.

Starting point is 00:30:33 To press their agenda. They'd be fool not to, to use it to influence people's opinions. We're in information war now. That's right. Did you know tomorrow's Reptile Awareness Day? I did not know that. October 21st. I'll make sure to give an extra nod to all the little iguanas I see walking on the sidewalk.

Starting point is 00:30:57 Yeah. Is a snake a reptile? Yeah. Yeah. Cameron's nodding saying that it is that I'm going to not celebrate this day. Because I'm not a big snake lover. No, I don't really like any reptiles. Let's be honest.
