Starting point is 00:04:01 list that we put up there in the beginning and you guys helped out so much on this show. A lot of these lights and the things he did, the Amazon list. And we still have it. It's still active. I haven't really talked about it a lot, but it's still active. And so this weekend, some stuff showed up. And it was Chris Hall sent in some stuff. Oh, thank you to Chris.
Starting point is 00:04:20 And it was the, I guess, what did he send? Because it's stuff that you actually put on the list because there was two things that showed up that weren't even on the list. Yeah, there was another one of these and a foam because I think, I was setting up to when we were going to have, like, one of the after-party kind of things. I was trying to get more mics in here. And then there was these things to make the telephone be able to work, the little orange phone.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Oh, right. Well, we can still do that. Yeah, we can put it over here and bang it up. We can actually get phone calls or people calling it. On that, yeah. See, we can, that actually might work for the best, and we can put the phone over there. That's great. So thank you to Chris Hall.
Starting point is 00:04:57 If anybody, if you want to take a look at what we have on that list, you can. that was very nice. It was a nice little... There's some care bear stuff for my daughter. Did you put care bear stuff? No, no. She's always like, can you put this on your wish list? I'm like, no, that's not what it's for.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Unbelievable. Speaking of my kids, I told you this today, I tell everybody this, because I know people get a kick out of stories about my kids, but this one, man. So I have a little, well, gangster, really, for a child. She's five and a half years old. She's almost six.
Starting point is 00:05:27 She'll be six, actually. She's not even five and a half. She's going to be six next month. I took it to kindergarten today, Brett. And so this morning she wakes up and she's like, I'm going to school. I can't wait. So we dropped the 11, almost 12 year old off at middle school.
Starting point is 00:05:44 First day middle school. She's like, all right, takes her backpacks, a little nervous, but then goes in, does her thing. So we take the little one to kindergarten. My wife, we show up, we're waiting on the line and she's already, starts clinging on, right? She's like, she doesn't, she starts like, I don't know if I want to go. So she start, they start bringing out.
Starting point is 00:06:01 everybody in teachers really sweet they bring everybody in and she's the last one and she's just holding on to my wife she's crying she doesn't want to go my wife's like okay you got to try to talk into it says i want to go home i want to go home crying really crying like the break the heart type cry no so then the best thing i've maybe ever seen in my life happened all right so my six-year-old daughter she's crying she's holding my wife and she just doesn't want to let go she's locked in and my and she's just my wife pulls an audible and she goes like mazie if you go in i will give you three ninjongos which is a show she's watching without a beat my six show looks up and goes four if goes okay fine four she goes and a lollipopop and a lot of pop without any other word she just
Starting point is 00:06:58 turns around and walks into the classroom and i was like It's amazing. Like the negotiation, she's, I mean, for sponsors and stuff, and she's got to make the calls for me. Oh, yeah, you need to have her start making those calls. And it just shows how manipulative they are. Oh, for real. Because Liddy would do the same thing where she would just suddenly just stop.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Like, you're like, oh, so you were just working me. I don't think she was just working, though. It wasn't. It just, once she heard that, it like. She was legit, like, didn't want to go, but she realized that the deal was too good to pass up. Yeah, you got to cut that shit. Yeah. She really, she said, look, if I can get four and a lollipop out of this thing?
Starting point is 00:07:34 Yeah. All right. I'll suck it up. Yeah, she was, she was legit. It wasn't like, she wasn't like planning out like where it was like, I'm going to cry just so I can get more TV. No, no, no. It was, I'm not dumb enough to pass up this deal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:46 This is a good deal. And I can break this cry in a heartbeat for that deal. I can get over it. Like, you know, if I'm going to get myself four Nijago's and that's about an hour, that's about two hours of television, they normally get about an hour or so, and I'm going to get a lollipop out of the deal. Yeah, I mean, yeah, she just, I got to say, I'm a little proud of the kid. I think if I make my wife cry again, I'm going to offer four Njago. She should.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Or for sex. Yeah, yeah. I'll give you four Njagoes. Five. Okay. That's how it works. Njago is a powerful tool, man. Oh, God, guys.
Starting point is 00:08:19 It's a powerful tool. It stands for Ninja Go. Yeah. Isn't that what you're supposed to say, you go like, Ninja Go! Yep, that's true. That's what they say in most parts of the world. That's what we're going to say the aliens when they come down. I might have some.
Starting point is 00:08:30 I couldn't. Does she play with the Njago too or no? Oh, do you really have something? Yeah, yeah. So Vivie, my oldest, was really into it back in the day, and then she got the little one into it recently. It's really into it. It's funny this show. Yeah. It's funny.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Oh, yeah, it's a good show. I mean, it's that, it's that Lego stuff. It's right? It's in the same guys that do the movies and things. Yeah, yeah, for sure. I think that's not the same writer. It's got that same kind of humor. The same feel.
Starting point is 00:08:57 All right, we're going to move into some topics, but I didn't even ask you. Where do you stand? You don't believe in any of this alien stuff. I'm actually bummed that I didn't, you know, I've been so busy. I haven't caught any of the stuff because I was, when you were talking about it, I was interested in checking all that out. And I'm not like, no, I'm into it. I'm not like, I haven't gone down the rabbit hole yet.
Starting point is 00:09:15 I bet I would. So you're not a skeptic, you just don't know enough about it yet. Yeah, yeah. I like that. That's a good answer. Yeah, I'd like to check it out. Right. Okay, great answer.
Starting point is 00:09:23 Because, you know, I had a conversation with that, because DJ was in here, and he's like, I was super skeptic. Yeah. And we talked for, because I watched his show that he did with Roxy, and he was just, he is something about, there's a certain type of skeptic. And I love DJ, but he is one of those type of skeptics that they don't watch everything. They just have that doubtful scowl on their face when it comes to the thing. And it adds to the stigma of it. But to his credit, when I talk to him afterwards, he's like, no, no, I'll watch it.
Starting point is 00:09:53 I'll come in. As I said, I think being a skeptic is healthy. I think you should be. I would much rather have a conversation with someone who's watched everything. Yeah. And it's still a skeptic and still says, no, no, no. I'm going to, well, how do you explain the O'Hare thing? And I go, well, in my opinion, I think the O'Hare thing is it's just not like, what's the O'Hare thing.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Yeah. Not to say that he said that, but I'm just saying that's what a lot of people will do. What is, I don't know what that is. It's just, it's not true. They're lying to you. It's like, how do you know that? I mean, I know that they're lying to us, but how do you know that this, that the government is lying in us? How do you know that this guy who's out there testifying under oath?
Starting point is 00:10:27 Yeah. because he had PTSD one time. That's how they're trying to discredit him. So you're saying just blindly being against something without doing any research is a bad idea. That's interesting. That's interesting. It actually, the conversation came up just yesterday. We took my wife, her father out for his birthday, and like we were talking about aliens and stuff.
Starting point is 00:10:49 And this was actually in the car ride because, yeah, there's, anyway. The car ride was interesting. What about the car ride? No, the kids. had an interesting points. My in-laws had some points
Starting point is 00:11:01 that I just don't want to bring. About the aliens? Yeah. Okay. But I think it was, it was,
Starting point is 00:11:06 let me guess. I bet you, I guarantee it because I think I know where you're in those government. They think it's a distraction from a
Starting point is 00:11:11 Hunter Biden. No, it's a distraction from the Lord and, oh. Yeah, it's,
Starting point is 00:11:16 they're demons. Anyway, so, we, you're not the only that said that. Yeah. There are people,
Starting point is 00:11:23 it's, it's the one thing I will say, but it's so interesting about all this, which I saw today. This is freaking, what was this stuff?
Starting point is 00:11:30 This, like, professor of at Harvard was talking. We were very much so a believer. And it's saying that it's so silly when you think about what human beings have done in this planet. It's like, everybody just wants their land. Yeah. It's like, this is the one event that if they actually do show themselves, which a lot of people are predicting that they're going to in the next two years. I don't know how true that is.
Starting point is 00:11:51 But it's the one thing that could actually unify humanity. Oh, yeah. Because it would change... Because we'd have to join together to murder them all. No, no. No, no. This isn't a... No, no, that's not an independence day.
Starting point is 00:12:03 It would just change the idea and philosophy of what life is overall. But who knows? I mean, like, it's one of those things where people... And, you know, and I get... The show that we started doing was very much so... On Tuesdays, it was very much so to just do like a... Every man point of view of it, the same way we're talking about here now. Because I saw some people like,
Starting point is 00:12:23 oh, these guys aren't really locked into it the way. people are. I'm like, no. It's not, I'm, I'm, I'm just talking about the way that I see when I start hearing about this stuff on the news. And I've done, I've been reading stuff, been watching things, I'm learning more about the community and things, but like, I don't think it's on anybody to say, you should believe this. Or it's a very similar to religion, right? It's like, you should, you should, you should believe this. But do your, do your, do your, do diligence. Yeah. And I think, um, you know, the, what, the, so the interesting part was then my son was like,
Starting point is 00:12:53 you know, he goes, well, I mean, there's parts of the. ocean we haven't discovered yet. And maybe those are actually aliens. Like he's he's like, you know, there's so much part of space and the ocean we haven't, you know, so that even a child can see that like maybe there is something else out there. And same with me. I'm, I'm not a skeptic. I just, I would like to see some more info and concrete, you know. A hundred percent. That's what everybody wants to see. But like the thing is, too, is what a lot of people, what I think, and we'll talk about this more tomorrow's episode, it's going to be myself and attack Peter. We're going to do the show because Riley's out this week. He'll be back next week.
Starting point is 00:13:27 But one of the things we're going to talk about is like, so watch, like, so Stephen Greer is somebody who you can, and a lot of people think that a lot of the things he says, it's just, you know, nuts. And a lot of people think that, well, he's got really a main insight. We look at all the people he's worked with, whether it's Clinton, all these different people.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Anyway, like him, Grush, a lot of the theories that it's not space. It's the fact that it makes more sense with physics. It is more likely, that they are coming from bending, like, time and dimension-wise, than it is. Because if you look at the technology, it would, from what Einstein says, it would be so hard to create technology that is able to go, it would just take you, I forget, how many years in general, it would take you just to travel from one spot to here at a time.
Starting point is 00:14:19 So it makes way more sense in the quantum physics of it all, how they would be able to, forever, how to. long it was. But that's a long, it's a different conversation. I know people tune in on Mondays for a different conversation. Just real quick for the people that saying you're not as dialed in on that. Did your thumbnail say two experts on the aliens? No, it didn't say that. Oh,
Starting point is 00:14:39 you didn't claim to be. I will be fair to those two because like I said, and I tell people this too, is that you, and everybody does this. You judge one or two comments and you say, well, that's what the whole majority of the comments on all of those shows. have been very supportive and there have been a lot of new people who come in who just want to have the conversation, like, because I don't talk down to anybody, whether they're skeptics or believers in it at all.
Starting point is 00:15:06 And the ones that do and come in, it's like anything else, you just hide them from the channel. That was my favorite. I saw that. That wasn't on this. That was on one of our normal shows. Somebody said something and I deleted the comment because it was like an insult. It wasn't, it wasn't like a criticism, it was an insult. And they came back and said, oh, I see your, you're limiting free.
Starting point is 00:15:25 speech here and I hit that person from the channel because here's the difference guys and just just so everybody knows this if you're one of those people no one is taking away free speech if you go into a store and you start screaming whatever you want to in that person's store that person can throw you out of the store and you can still start screaming the shit on the sidewalk you can still scream all your free speech shit on the on the sidewalk but you're not allowed to do it in the store if the store owner says, get the fuck out. So to those people, I kindly say, get the fuck out. Yeah. And that's all it is. Yeah, there's other. So yeah, free speech is a right you have. There's also other rights that play into effect there. That's one of your, yeah, you have a right to
Starting point is 00:16:12 throw people out of your business. It's my store. And it's like, you know, if you come in and you, I don't agree with your take on this because this and this, it's still even if, and I never do this, I wouldn't throw anybody out. But even if I did, it'd be like, that's shitty. He doesn't let people talk about, like, if they don't agree with his opinion, they throw them out. And I agree, that would be shitty. But I don't do that.
Starting point is 00:16:32 If you insult someone and you start yelling at someone and being, you know, a jerk about your opinion, and I don't want, I try, I'm trying to promote positivity in this thing. And that's kind of, that's the other thing, too. I don't know, I've told you this. I've been going down the rabbit hole man of manifestation lately. Yeah, I like that. That conversation had with you briefly the other day. I've been doing kind of the same thing myself, and also I've been riding down, like, you know, things that I'm, I'm, what are the gratitude type things?
Starting point is 00:17:03 Yeah, with my wife and my kids. It's part of it. And that's the other thing that people don't realize when they see, oh, you're not just going to be able to put out into the world that you want to do this and it's going to happen. You're not wrong. It's not a magical thought that just comes out. it's a process, it's a lifestyle. It's a matter of, and honestly, how dare you have positive outlooks?
Starting point is 00:17:27 That's the thing is. I've just felt better, even if, you know, just in my head, I have a routine of what I do when I wake up in the morning when I walk the dog and things I say and things I do and the way that I have outlook on stuff and the way that even when I talk to people and certain ways when I'm,
Starting point is 00:17:41 it's like a matter of if even like certain things, like even if you don't believe in it, it's so hard for me, like even listening to people when they, as I'm reading these books or, and it's like, even if you didn't believe it, it's just like, you have to,
Starting point is 00:17:54 like, applaud people for going down this route because all it is is telling you to be positive and thinking positively and to, you know, try to be a better person and, and, like, and it's one of those things that you have a conversation with somebody
Starting point is 00:18:07 and you're in the middle of, of, and they say things instead of kind of going after them or, and the one main thing is, too, for just a lot of people in general, I learned this years ago from a friend of mine who was a comedian. It's like, it's very easy to look if someone, like someone that you know, let's say, and I'm sure
Starting point is 00:18:26 we've all done on this, but like if you were coming up and you're really funny, you are a very funny comedian and you see somebody that you thought was maybe not as funny as you. Yeah. And then they hit, they hit the payload. Yeah. And as comedian, we had a few people that were like, always like, how's that person doing? And the goal there is to say good for that person. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Even if you don't like good for that person. They did the right thing. They did what they had to do, whether it was luck, whatever it was, and good for them. Because I'm telling you, it takes so much more effort and kind of grossness. Yeah, to hate on it. Yeah, in general. And not just for jealousy, but just in general, like, that's why when I'm talking about these comments, It's like even if you're, if you're, if you, like, tune in, if you, like, stumble onto my show and you don't know me or you know me from the, I don't like that guy.
Starting point is 00:19:20 And you take that effort to just put it into it. To write something in there to go. It's, you feel like, I guess you feel like you're getting something off your chest and you feel like, yeah. But in the long run, it's just, it's, it's really hurting your energy. It really is. And it's like, and you don't realize it because, I don't know, there's just, there's something in you saying, I need to do. that because it's easier to throw that kind of angry out there and do that and and it's I don't know it's just it I've just been in a much better space since I was like you know
Starting point is 00:19:53 just thinking about things in a whole different light yeah and then 100% and you will be and it's not like you're believe you're not like suddenly believing in magic or something you know and even if you did you know like there's something nice about something that helps you out I keep going back to the Bill Hicks bit where he's talking about flag burning. And he's like, you know, well, it's, you know, people should be able to, but I don't want to burn a flag. Well, no, I'm not saying it's, you don't have to burn a flag, but it let's say you did, but I don't want to burn.
Starting point is 00:20:20 No, no, no. If you wanted to burn a flag, but I don't did you. Right, right, right. It's like, one of the great screaming ones of his is just don't burn it. Just don't do it. It's not saying you have to. It's, yeah, but it's just like I've been doing. I mean, just listening to these things.
Starting point is 00:20:39 just like this kind of positive affirmation. It's amazing how much it like it'll help you because even when, you know, you see things all the time where I was talking like Roxy about it or something to and especially with the internet, the way the internet can as much as, and you know how I feel about the internet. Oh yeah, I feel about social media. I will tell you that I think that there was scrolling through Instagram and it took me in this kind of path that I just started thinking differently.
Starting point is 00:21:03 And it's like it's been super helpful. It's helped me in my life in general over the last like month. and I'm very, I mean, look, it's just, it's one of those things because I have a lot of different ideas of what I want to do in the next year with more so in, I guess my business, too, but more so my family and things. And I have a lot of ideas that I want to do. And that's where, like, what people, like, with manifestation, it's like in your head, like, what do I see happening? And the main thing, too, is that what I've learned is, you don't talk about it more so in the future because you're always being chasing it. You talk about it as if it's happening. You have certain things in your brain,
Starting point is 00:21:41 certain things that you want to happen because of the subconscious. And I don't think it's a coincidence, by the way, the other thing, when it comes to, and it's different with quantum physics and the quantum realm and things of that nature. But like when this happens, you know, when we go to see Oppenheimer and that,
Starting point is 00:21:56 you mentioned that Oppenheimer brings in quantum physics to this day's the first time. Quantum physics and the rule of, like, time and space, I'm fascinated by it. It's the one thing I wish I was smarter, right? I wish I actually, I mean, like, I can pay attention to some of the things, but I wish I, like, got it. You know what I mean? Like, I wish I got it because I don't, I wouldn't be doing this.
Starting point is 00:22:16 I'll be honest. If I really knew, I would be, I would be trying to figure out how to make a bomb. No, jump with the aliens and figure out how to time jump with aliens. Yeah. But I, like, it's fascinating to me, but I don't think it's a, it's a coincidence when these things all, like, the different planes that potentially. And again, I'm not telling anybody you have to believe this or not. Like, I was trying to figure out for myself. spiritually. It's like I'm not, I'm definitely not an atheist.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Yeah. And I was trying to, and I was raised Catholic and bless everybody who, no matter what your religion is, how you, however you feel you get your faith, I'm not, I'm not taking that away from you. I'm just saying that there was always something in my mind. I'm like, I know that, like, we had this conversation, I guess, I don't know, probably about a year ago, and we talked about what do you think happens when you die? Yeah. You think, you just think it's, lights out. I don't think so. More and more so, I don't think so. I do think that spiritually we're connected to this energy. And it doesn't, again, coincidence-wise, how all this stuff, like, as you're talking about aliens and all this different stuff, it's the most anybody's
Starting point is 00:23:26 ever talked about this stuff publicly, and you don't get, you still get it, but not as much as that, you know, when you bring it up. Now it's like starting to become part of the conversation. What is it that you're watching? Like, what am I, have I missed with my total lack of watching news or anything like that for the last couple of weeks? You mean as far as the alien stuff? Or as far as the... What was the thing that, the bipartisan thing that, like, they started? Yeah, there was a hearing.
Starting point is 00:23:52 A hearing. It was a full-on hearing. And it's done, or is it still going on? They're going to do other ones, yeah, because there's whistleblower. So, again, the short of it is that there is a guy who's working for the, he's called UAPs now. UFOs. They want to give it a less stigmary. field, but it's UAPs.
Starting point is 00:24:08 And this guy was part of the investigation to find out what was going on, all these things, and he interviewed him. He's a whistleblower, and they interviewed him on News Nation, and he had made claims that he had interviewed many people that were involved with these programs that had recovered craft and bodies. So he was asked to testify
Starting point is 00:24:27 with two other pilots who also had seen and had footage. I remember when Clyde Alive when we watched someone, I think, So Ryan Graves saw one in 2017, 20, anywhere between 2015, 2017. But the first one was David Fraver, who was a pilot in 2004, the Tick-Tac video. And so all three of them testified under oath
Starting point is 00:24:55 and talked about everything that they see and all these things. But the shitty thing that happened last week, and this is something again we're going to talk about in depth on tomorrow's show. there was this reporter who got tips about David Grush who's the whistleblower and David Grush already talked about this
Starting point is 00:25:12 in the interview but didn't air it but he had PTSD and he you know an alcohol problem when he came back from Afghanistan which happens to so many different vets and there are a couple issues and then this guy leaked it as if it was
Starting point is 00:25:27 an issue and trying to discredit him but he still had his clearance afterwards so it's not it kind of back backfired on him. And the guy is like a, he's a full-on skeptic. And he's kind of, I saw him on his interview, I don't remember his name, but I saw his interview that he did with these, and couldn't these two reporters that kind of
Starting point is 00:25:44 went after him and were talking to him and asking him these questions. And he was, and he was fine, but he is a full-on, on Twitter. Yeah. Full-on kind of, I don't want to use, I was going to, again, see, show you where I was going to call him a name. It was. He's an ass hat. No.
Starting point is 00:26:01 No. Kind of on Twitter. He's a beautiful ass-at. He's looking for it on Twitter. He's looking around people. He's looking around people up on Twitter, and he's not a good guy on Twitter. On his interview, on his interview, he was, had answers. And it was nothing, I mean, look, he's a reporter who's going, but they asked him straight up.
Starting point is 00:26:17 They look like it was a smear campaign. And he's like, I get that, but, but, but, but, anyway, that's more. We reward, I believe we reward potsters a lot more than we back, because there are a lot of very wealthy people that are, just just poking and trying to rile people up. It's all about entertainment too, man. It's all about entertainment. But either way, it all, it just seems like it all makes sense to me in a certain way.
Starting point is 00:26:44 And they're all like, you know, these, whatever it might be. And whatever these types of certain, I don't say, awakenings. You get older, you start thinking about different things and different, whatever you think the meanings are. And there are tons of different people. And this is the stuff that I did love. There are tons of people that are inside of the conversation about, you get, about it, were very religious and have a very strong relationship with God and whatever their religion actually is and whoever they follow. And they stated it in a way where I say this, I believe
Starting point is 00:27:17 in this. I think that honestly, this is the way, if you read this, this is what, and I don't necessarily agree with all these people, but they presented themselves in a respectable way because they have their beliefs. And I think beliefs are strong, beliefs are important, no matter what it is because you look at some of these people that were in a place that I think there's a lot of things that religion does that is really bad right I really bad and I think it caused a lot of wars and other things but
Starting point is 00:27:41 it also would be irresponsible to say that religion doesn't also cause very similar to what I was just talking about it causes a change of mind and a change of lifestyle and it saves people's lives and everything to to me that's that's the good of religion that's how you use it
Starting point is 00:27:59 I mean at it's at it's at its roots, it's, it's, it is meant for good, and it is, and then, you know, there's certain people that maybe latch on to parts that they shouldn't, and, and forget about that, you know, be good to each other, you know, love thy neighbor kind of stuff, and they, they spews some hate here and there, but, you know, it's, it's, I, I, yeah, it's tough because there's so, so much to it. But this is my only thing that I would say, immediately I thought of about, when you talked about, like, Christianity is there, in the Bible, there's people that live to be, like, 900 years old in the Bible.
Starting point is 00:28:33 If you believe that, then maybe you believe in aliens, or if you know somebody, if someone came back from the dead, you know. I mean, there's a lot of, you know, magical mysticism that happened in the Bible. I know, it is amazing what people will look at and say, you know, like, no way that, there's absolutely, absolutely no way that there are things flying around in space and we don't know about it. But Noah in the Ark, that happened.
Starting point is 00:28:59 Yeah. The whole earth was flooded. Rogan spit is, do you ever see a Rogan's bit on Noah? I'm going to murder it, but it's along the lines of where you were saying, you're telling a kid is a special kid, the story of Noah. And you tell him, well, for 40 days and 49, Noah had all these animals. And listen, he said, that eight-year-old kid, where he said,
Starting point is 00:29:24 there's a lot of holes in that story. Yeah. And he's just like, how do they live? If animals eat other animals. The whole thing, it's like a really long bit, but I remember seeing it when I was at the comedy store and he did it. Yeah, but anyway. All right, before we move on, we got some other stories to talk about, and we're going to get into them.

Starting point is 00:33:18 like, you know, oh, he's planning this. No, two days a week, we know we have a, meal plan. And as a parent, like, you know, that's the, what every day is like, what should we eat tonight? What you don't mean it? Yeah. And you just throw that. You being it in the boxes, right? Oh, yeah. I love it. Yeah. And what's great about it is not, did not cook when I met her. She knew one dish. And she, I was like, oh, this is great. She's a great cook. And then she made it again for me another time. I'm like, oh, you know how to make one thing. Good thing you're pretty. Just kidding. But I was, I was the cook. I was the cook. for the longest time. She gets in there
Starting point is 00:33:57 with the green chef and she's like, the one thing that bugs me is she puts everything in like little ramekins. Like she's on a show. I'm like, honey, you're dirty and wait too many dishes,
Starting point is 00:34:06 but I appreciate it. Go for it. But she's been cooking a lot with the green chefs. Oh yeah, yeah, loves it. I'm telling you, man, when my family was out of town
Starting point is 00:34:13 during that weekend, that's all, every day, but I still, now I make the, the meat is so good. Anyway, we talked about them.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Make sure you can go and check it out. The link is in the description. It's also, I put eye cards up there. And I pin the first comment. So let me know. All right, let's get to some stories.
Starting point is 00:34:35 I want to talk about the box office first. How do you feel about this Barbenheimer? I cannot stand the Barbenheimer name. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. It's such a sticky thing. I try to refuse saying it.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Especially because of the subject matter. Right. You know, Oppenheimer. Is it Oppenheimer? Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer. It's Oppenheimer. It's Oppenheimer.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Well, they got in trouble for that, too, because they were doing like all these, I think the official account of Barbie, like there was like a thing related Barbie with like an explosion in the background. And it's like, read the room. Yeah. But yeah, but I, that absolutely is one of the main reasons.
Starting point is 00:35:11 But the other reason is too, it's just, it's just so sticky. Yeah. It's just such a shtick thing. And I'm like, I refuse to say it. And I've said it begrudging. All right, let's get to the topic here. While most of the talk of the domestic box office this weekend has been about the underwhelming performing of Last Voyage of the Demeter.
Starting point is 00:35:30 The International Box Office is going gangbuster on a number of titles. Unsurprisingly, Barbie is still on top. The Greta Gerwig directed film has now reached a worldwide total of $1.18 billion, making it now the highest grossing live action movie from a female director worldwide and overtaking Aquaman to become the second biggest film ever from Warner Bros. Pictures. Coming in second is another story. Ben Wheatley's Meg, too, The Trenches, in its second. weekend and pulled in 43.7 million overseas, which now takes it to 257 worldwide. The film
Starting point is 00:36:04 overseas has effectively quadrupled its domestic performance. Much of that is fueled by China, where it has reached 90.2 million. Oppenheimer had a 43% drop in his fourth weekend with a further 32 million, and now it sits at 649 million worldwide. That's huge. It's Nolan's biggest film of all time in 50 markets. Christopher McCory's Mission Impossible did Reckoning Part 1, continues to chug along. It has reached 522 million globally through Sunday, now the 10th highest grossing film of the year. Bloom Camp's Grand Terismo based on a true story. I had no idea until five seconds ago. That was directed by Neil Bloomcamp. But again, its overseas rollout ahead of its domestic release in two weeks and managed 10.7 million across 30 markets. Critics reviews are
Starting point is 00:36:48 mixed. Audience reviews are strong and are hoping to build the audience interest. And finally, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem film has reached 94. Globally, was severed. major markets to release staggering across the world. All right, what's, I want to also see what this, the Detmer thing is. Hold on. Oh, I know what the movie is, but I want to see what the... I don't know what it is. It's like the start of Dracula.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Oh. Oh, I think I saw some people were like, oh, Dracula on a boat or something, but it's like... So it, yeah, it's, it only made 65 million. 65 million? Yeah, right. It seems interesting to me. I mean... Hold on.
Starting point is 00:37:25 This movie made six million. Little under 7, 6.5 Detmer on its first weekend. Yeah, I heard it was okay. I like the concept. I mean, if you could do it right and have such a small space become just terrifying. I don't know. I thought it was just the, I really don't know. I really don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:48 I thought it was him just traveling over and then it gets here. Oh, I could be wrong. I have no idea. You might be right. I didn't even watch a trailer for it. had no interest in it, missed the screening. Let's talk about it, even though we don't know what it is. And we should.
Starting point is 00:38:02 In great detail. But that was the other. So for anybody who ever, the same thing, I really want to see those comments. When's the review for last ever? Where's the review for last ever? And I'll tell you, you're anti-Dracula agenda again. And I was like, I'm going to give you the same answer. I'm going to give you the same answer.
Starting point is 00:38:20 I did not get a screening for it. And I wrote to the people and I said, hey, when's the screening for? And that was my favorite. Oh, you got privileged in order to get to a screening, huh? Yeah. Like, no. First of all, I don't know. This is what I do for my living.
Starting point is 00:38:36 And if I get the reviews, I go and I see them. If I don't, it's hard for me to go on the weekends. If you worked in a candy store that gave you free candy all the time, would you go to another store and buy candy? No. Unless the only time I go. Unless it's really special. And that is. The only time I go is when I take, like, my kids.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Yeah. If I go to the, it's like, okay. both my kids want to see it. I saw, like Mario, I saw once at the screening, then I took my kids to see it. I don't, unless there's something I really, really wanted to see it, and then I missed it, and I really wanted to see it, then I'll go.
Starting point is 00:39:09 But it's very hard for me to get to movies on the weekends, and it also happened. You know what I started doing over the weekend, I'll tell you. And this is going to come out bad, and I don't care. I've been working, you know, because I got Gary Busey down. Yeah. Arnold had gotten down over the years. because, you know, you try to do it, you work on it,
Starting point is 00:39:29 and hey, you know, next thing you know, you can do something that's formidable. But I was going through clips and I had a little bit, I smoked a little bit over the weekend, and I was listening to my manifestation stuff. In the middle of it, I'm listening to the thing, and I tune out, I'm like, I wonder if I could do a Jesse Vadoral Pressure.
Starting point is 00:39:46 As I'm doing it, and I start doing, I don't know if I can do it. I'll try it. You know, Brett, this is Jesse, the body. Ventura. I can't do you right. I did it. I had one. I'm going to show you the one I sent to my buddy Steve. Because it was the closest one I could get to. And I tried it and I
Starting point is 00:40:01 had my and I was and I sent it to my buddy Steve Simone and this is the one that I got. And you tell me what you think. You know Jesse's voice for you. Yeah, yeah. Right here. Hey, Steve, it's your old buddy Jesse the body Ventura. Yeah. I was in Rio de Janeiro last week and it got me thinking about a time that I was there with both
Starting point is 00:40:18 King Kong Bundy and Haystacks Calhoun. You know, Hastacks thought that he would be the first one to bring up a soda machine there. but lo and behold, I had done it when I was six months old still in my mother's womb. I got that out. Yeah, I like it. For the first time ever, I was a proud.
Starting point is 00:40:32 I mean, you listen to Will Sassau. Have you heard Will Sassau do? No, no. Dude, I'm going to play it. I bet. Will Sassos, Jesse Ventura, is the best. And then there's a wrestler that does it also. But Jesse, but Will Sassos...
Starting point is 00:40:46 When you're pulling that up, I'm going to tell a story. I went out and I supported, you know, local theaters. Yeah. I went with a friend of mine. when I was in Indianapolis. I met him at the theater. We walked in, and he's like, I'm not sure what theater is in. They weren't labeled or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:41:03 I'm like, oh, isn't it on the ticket? He goes, oh, I didn't buy tickets. That's great. We just wanted to. There was nobody check. So we had to peek in every room to see which one was the movie in. Even better. Oh, I'm in your seat.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Oh, I'm sorry. We only get away with that one time. One time. This is from Chris Van Fleet's interview. Hold on. Oh, yeah, I spend six months out of you. Yeah, I'm down in the Baja. I'm not even here most of the time.
Starting point is 00:41:38 I have, I have somewhere north of 150 dogs, wild dogs. They all answer to me. They all understand that I'm the head honcho, their main or mono. So good. Yeah, it's, I think you gotta, it's, you gotta get nasally. You gotta get a little more nasly. Yeah, it's like, it's, yeah, it's, it's in the, it's, it's, it's in that Bucy realm.
Starting point is 00:42:03 Back of the throat. Yeah, and I, when I was, had my headphones, I closed my eyes, I can get to it a little more, but it would take, it would take more, it would take more, it would take more, it would take more, it would take more, but like he's, it's really, it's really, really, his is, is so good. Well, and characters where you get to just say outlandish things. That's why I love Bucy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Yeah. There was a time that I used to put. on a space helmet, but I used to make it out of an old helmet that was made out of a cardboard and a bit of a hot wheel. One hot wheel. It was a friend of mine that I used to
Starting point is 00:42:35 say, and a friend was an old doorknob. Say whatever you want. Down in the Baja. That's really good stuff. Anyway, so when it comes to Barbie and all that, I mean, massive for the
Starting point is 00:42:52 for the box office. I mean, really, that's insane. And I think, I don't know what the stats are, but my wife was saying, like, oh, my God, this is the, like, it was a first for a female director, right? Well, first for a solo female director, because Captain Marvel, there was female director and male director. I think they were both, I think it was a team. And you know, it'll rile your wife up is when she says something like that. And you go, well, good for her.
Starting point is 00:43:16 Yeah, she's like, no, that's a big. I go, I know it's a big thing. You know me? I've been with you for 20 years, you know. It's really good. I haven't seen it. I sent, she went to see it with some friends in an outdoor theater, and then I sent my daughter and her friends were visiting in town,
Starting point is 00:43:33 and I just sent them to the theater. I wanted to go, but I'm teaching Blake how to drive. That's crazy. Yeah. It's crazy. Yeah, the movie, look, people love it. I thought it was okay. Too woke for you.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I get it. I thought it was fine. I think it's a, I love Greta Gerwig. I think what she did for both little women and, And what's the other one? Lady Bird. I think she's a fantastic director. I think the movie's directed really well. I think that totally sometimes...
Starting point is 00:44:00 It didn't know what it was... Yeah, I think so. But I'm clearly in the minority. Because people are loving it and talking about best pitcher and all that stuff too. And I can understand, I mean, yeah, it's... What the hell do I know? The movie's going to $1.2 billion.
Starting point is 00:44:16 It's going to beat Mario. It's going to beat Mario, for sure. And it'll be the number one movie of the year, My only thing, do you think that they would have done better if it maybe would have skewed more towards the, no, I mean like even more so if not better, if it would have just blown it out of the water, I guess, if it's skewed for a little bit younger, because I know that you wouldn't take your youngest to this. Yeah, I mean, look, there's an argument to be made there, but maybe not. Yeah. Because maybe because it was, because it's skewed older, it got people like, you know, it's like that kind of like the bachelor mentality, right? Also, whereas. It's like there's, think about, like, my oldest now is watching The Bachelorette with my wife. Oh, yeah, okay. And she wouldn't watch that when she was like six, but like she watched it. But that's two more people.
Starting point is 00:45:04 Now there's two more people watching that show. And it like continues, like, it's like this legacy thing. So maybe, you know, a mom who used to play with Barbie and she younger takes her now 12 or 13. Because it is, that's the one thing, though. It's a mother and daughter story. That's what, yeah. And I think that that's why it plays for a lot of people. And I think that it's going to, I think that it maybe actually was a smarter move to do it the way that they did it.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Because the argument could be made. Yeah, you could have done the Marrith and maybe made more money on it. But I think that it's going to be in the conversation. It's going to be in the conversation for like people are talking about best pitcher, whether it's nominated or not. I don't know. But it's in the conversation. That I don't think happens if you skewery way young. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:48 And I think that they're, and they're obviously, they were. They were, not they were. They put out a message that they wanted to put out inside of the movie as well, too, that I don't think you could have done because that's essentially you'd have to lose. Yeah. Because a lot of the messaging, it would go right over my six-year-olds. No, no, no, no, no. But it would go right over my six-year-olds had some of the stuff that's going on in it with the.
Starting point is 00:46:13 And now that I say, I mean, it does make sense, like I think the Barbie crowd, I don't think my daughter was into it as much. much as my sister was i mean i think barbie's still hot but i mean like there was shoot my mom has the first barbie ever made you know like yeah she got it when she was a kid she's held on to it it's that you know one with the the the eyes or look different you know whatever it was 50s i think 50s or 60 um but yeah i i i'm actually bummed i didn't go see it but i just kind of wanted the girls to kind of have their own little like the movie which they went in there and they they were sneaking in candy yeah and my daughter calls me she's like
Starting point is 00:46:51 They just checked somebody's backpack. I'm freaking out. I'm like, well, first of all, you're a little suss by calling your dad right now. I'm like, just be cool. I said, you have a small purse, you know, like they're checking backpacks because of weapons and stuff like that. That's adorable. And then she calls me back and I'm like, what happened? Did they take it away?
Starting point is 00:47:07 She took my Coke. No, she said, yeah, she's like, no, only two of the free movie passes you gave me worked. So should we just forget it? I'm like, no, I'll pay for the movie. Like, you have the credit card. It's hilarious. Yeah, it's adorable. She's what? She's 12, right?
Starting point is 00:47:23 Yeah, yeah. Freaking out here. Best. Yeah, all right, so look, that movie you can still see it whenever the hell you want to see. It's going to be out for a while. The other thing, speaking of movies that, man, are now, like, I think this is nail in the coffin as far as any chance for this movie making money. They made an announcement today about Indiana Jones. In Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, it has already set a Tuesday, August 29th, digital release for Indiana
Starting point is 00:47:51 Jones and the Dial of Destiny. The film will be available on all major major digital real tailors prime video Apple TV. Voodoo, no word on the SVOD premiere at this time, but the digital release will rock five behind the scenes features. So to me,
Starting point is 00:48:08 it's like with Barbie and Oppenheimer and all these movies in the Meg and Indies and Mission Impossible still make him an indie's toast. And it goes back to that whole thing we talked about with the $300 million dollar budget. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Arrested. Arrested. Whoever came up with that budget. Arrested. And because now you're going to try to get whatever you can in digital because it just came out in June, the end of June, and two months later it's on digital. And that's telling, right?
Starting point is 00:48:38 I mean, that probably wasn't the plan, of course, right? They probably wanted it to be able to stay in. They were hoping it was going to do what, but, you know. As a schmoe, I'm asking. Yeah, I know. He don't know the park. Let me see what. It made overall, well, thus far.
Starting point is 00:48:54 Because, let's see, Indiana Jones. And the Dial of Destiny currently stands at $370 million. Now, that's 172 domestic, 198 international, 370 worldwide, with a $300 million budget, not including marketing. Let's be generous and say marketing was $150 million. that is still a big loss. Rough. That's rough.
Starting point is 00:49:23 So that is, it's not good. Should have Barbie in it. You should have definitely have Barbie in it. But I think, and I, and the same thing, it's,
Starting point is 00:49:31 it was not the movie that I had the criticism with it. It's the amount of money they spent on it. And, you know, there's definitely, again, tonal things.
Starting point is 00:49:40 I will watch that movie. That movie I will watch again. Yeah. I will probably, I tried to watch Crystal Skull again. I try to watch it. I'm going to try. I'll try one more.
Starting point is 00:49:49 time. It's so bad. Maybe it's similar to, what was it? I don't, I don't, solo to me is not as bad as Crystal Skull, but the first half of solo is a little harder to watch for me. The second half of Solo is really good. So I wonder if Crystal Skull gets better,
Starting point is 00:50:05 but that's when Shia LaBouf is flying around with the monkeys and the trees and. Yeah, it's rough. Going in between the jeeps that are, yeah, yeah, it's rough. It's rough. Yeah, even my, when I watch it with my son, he was, he was, pretty young and he was like
Starting point is 00:50:20 whatever. And it's not like the other films had amazing special effects or anything. You'd think he could see through somebody's heart being pulled out. Yeah, right. That just reminds me. So I showed Vivi Sebastian's
Starting point is 00:50:37 stand up, not too long, the Chipotle thing, which is one of my favorite bits. You've seen it, right? And she loves, so every time she sees him, she'll see Sebastian, Chipotle, he's hilarious. So then they sent the about my father movie, the one with him and De Niro. Oh yeah. I was watching over somebody's shoulder on the
Starting point is 00:50:54 plane. He ever did that? Yeah, yeah. It's not good. Oh, I don't. I hate saying it. I'm a, Sebastian's a friend. But like he is I just don't know
Starting point is 00:51:08 why they chose that one for him because he's so hilarious. Like I would have loved to see it like because he's playing, you know, he's almost 50 years old. He's playing like a guy that's just meeting like he's just getting married for the first time and and if he's not like he's not like oh I'm divorced and it's like
Starting point is 00:51:24 it's almost playing like he was 30 and the supporting cast good actors but he's not that funny a lot of De Niro's funny but I wanted to see Sebastian like doing that thing where he's just you know the grouchy the grouchy dude is just like goes to the grocery story he has this whole bit about
Starting point is 00:51:40 why is that when I'm that guy on the line it's always in front of me the coupons and it's like and you You have like that moment where he's just like, and then he meets somebody who is, you know, like brings that out of him. Yeah. It gets the old kind of grouchy thing and you can see him doing all the stuff with his feet
Starting point is 00:52:02 and all those things. I want to see that kind of movie with him because I think that's where he shines. I don't know. It just, we didn't finish it. And it's, I think that's tough with a comedian in a film is that they have a whole persona that you've bought into. And for them to act. differently than that persona.
Starting point is 00:52:20 He still does it, but he still throws it. He's not as jaded. He plays himself. He's playing Sebastian Manascalco in the movie. Oh, is? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I mean, he's definitely, it's just like there's, he's got to,
Starting point is 00:52:31 it's leaning on him to be like this kind of romantic lead, and he's got to be kind of, I don't know, like passive sometimes, and it's on De Niro to be the one who's kind of, the one who's, if you watch Sebastian's, uh, stand up, he talks a lot about his dad and there's a lot of that in there.
Starting point is 00:52:47 And I think this is probably kind of a passion, project for him because yeah that means the world to him you know obviously and he wanted to do a movie like that and to obviously be able to say to his dad you know we just did a movie and deniro yeah played i mean that's it of course so i just watching it though i was like ah it's just something like you could see because he's he's one of the funniest comedians out there and to see him do something like where he's i just picture him like waking up and here he go again look at this guy this guy's got sandals on and he's like as he's walking
Starting point is 00:53:18 and doing his thing and you hear his inner monologue, I still think there's another movie out there that he can absolutely annihilate because that was the other thing. They put that movie out the same time as Bert's movie, the same weekend. Oh, okay. And him and Chrysler had the movies come out the same. I don't know why that was done. That makes no sense.
Starting point is 00:53:36 That movie I haven't seen either. But did you see that one yet? I haven't seen the machine. I'd have to check that out. I think I saw some of that one over somebody's shoulders as well. Good for you. Do you ever do that? Like, you just find yourself just like watching a movie that somebody's watching
Starting point is 00:53:48 on an airplane, you're like, what the fuck am I doing? I'm like, I wonder what they're saying. Yeah, you're just kind of like staring. And then they turn around. You're like, that's true. No, I wasn't watching your movie. Yeah, it's true. Anyway, let's move on to another one.
Starting point is 00:54:07 I want to get to this story. You like these conjuring movies, Brett? Oh, yeah. Do you? Nunnenheimer. The Nunn two, apparently, is the darkest conjuring movie. Michael Chavez says that his upcoming sequel to the Nun,
Starting point is 00:54:21 the follow-up to the 2018 spinoff of the Conjuring franchise, goes to some of the darkest and certainly most violent places the franchise has seen to date. The new film begins with Sister Irene four years after the events, the first installment. Here, she has moved from Romania to Italy in order to live a quiet life in a convent. Valic, however, isn't done with her.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Corin Hardy Helm the first film, which became a success, grossing $356 million from a budget of 22 million. And so a sequel was inevitable. It took time, but it finally was made a few years later. And the director was speaking with SFX magazine, explained the tonal balance trick that came with the new film. I think this does get darker.
Starting point is 00:55:00 Even audience have said this. When we screened it, it's definitely more violent than they were expecting from a conjuring movie. It's always a delicate balance. It's definitely scary. It's 100% delivered on that. Just as horror audiences has developed the appetite for horror, the appetite for violence has started to increase.
Starting point is 00:55:15 and there are some violent elements in this. Yeah, I mean, look, I remember, I think I saw this with, like, Makuga in the theater. We took him a... Conjuring? The nun. Oh, the nun. For, like, a bit, we took him to the theater.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Yeah, I remember that. I think, like, Brian, it put, like, a sound thing in his chest to hear him kind of yelling or whatever it was, but I don't think there was anything that many. I don't know how scary it was. I don't remember it that much. I just remember this creepy nun running around the place. know. When I started
Starting point is 00:55:46 when I started doing Schmo's, I think they had me review the conjuring. The first one. Yeah, the first one. But then wasn't the twins from Rad? They were the directors of the... They wrote. They wrote one and two. Is there three? There are three
Starting point is 00:56:03 conjuring? I can't remember. I'm pretty sure there's three conjurings. But I remember them coming in and I was like, oh my God. Yeah, yeah. The conjuring, let's see. Three. Yeah, the conjuring, you don't let me do it. There's a third one.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Is the story still with the two, like, psychic couple? That's one in debt. That's for conjuring. The spinoffs don't. They don't touch on them. I don't remember them being in it. Like, there's a few different spin-offs from them. This is what I'm talking about with budgets, right?
Starting point is 00:56:34 If you're going to do stuff like this, do stuff like this all day long. I mean, there's sometimes that when you're just doing it for the formula of we make it for cheap, We make a lot of money. Yeah. Let's get out. That's what they used to do a lot of times for horror movies and they would eat it, but Blumhouse kind of found a good,
Starting point is 00:56:51 I don't know if this is Blumhouse, but I don't think it is, but they used to, but just smaller budgets to then develop stories, adding the creepy element to it and building off this franchise, that's the way to do it.
Starting point is 00:57:03 And I think that's the way, I wish they would start doing that with like science fiction and they would do that with these other movies. And even the comic book movies, instead of this 200, 300 million dollars. Like, can you imagine Indiana and Jones movie that that costs like 40 million dollars like that would be yeah I don't like I agree
Starting point is 00:57:20 with you it was an unnecessary amount of money to yeah you know 40 million dollars if it would have made the money that it made yeah it's still people still wanted to see it so it's like it's not like that extra money like people in people got went in there to see it would have made you know 360 million off of 60 million dollars and then then then it's a success then it's a hit but and that's what the none whatever the I mean you look at 360 million what does it say 20 million dollar budget 32 or something like that. That's crazy. That's how you do this. And so it absolutely makes sense to be a...
Starting point is 00:57:50 So this is an offshoot. The originals were kind of loosely based on a true story, right? There was a family. Yeah, the Warrens. Yeah, the Warrens. Some of the stuff. I mean, so what the brothers... I thought Annabelle had to do with that. I think they did. I think it does. So that was another part. Okay. That's what I mean. It's like there's so much...
Starting point is 00:58:06 There's so much money involved in all this. But like, the Hayes brothers wrote Conjuring 1 and 2, and what they told, I think they were two, but what they told us when they wrote these things was that all the investigation that they did of all the there's tons of stories that the war in 10th. Yeah. I think Annabelle and those other things were part of it. And then they, you know, then they go off and they make them movies. Yeah. And they throw the horror movie kind of tropes in there. None is creepy as hell just looking at it. It's creepy looking. I don't necessarily, again, this is one of those ones that I'll get the screening to and if I'm available, see it. Nobody really is like going, I can't wait to see what he says about the nun.
Starting point is 00:58:44 None, too. Because they know that I'm going to go and going, I don't know. Like, it doesn't sell me. He hates Creepin'uns! But it doesn't sell me on, no, to horror, a lot of other horror fans, that quote, those quotes might have sold people.
Starting point is 00:58:56 Yeah. To me, I'm like, I don't know, violence, is I see violent nun? Okay, cool. I want to see good story. You're like, I went to Catholic school. I've seen it all the time. My knuckles.
Starting point is 00:59:07 Anyway, what do you guys think? You guys want to see this? Do you like the idea of this, more violent thing. I want to know what you think. Let me know. Brad, I think we're done. All right.

Mike Joyce, who asks, are you still planning on building up the live stream channel when the strike is over? And Roxy Hour, Improv with Steph, Cois Comic Corner, Tooltime with Brett. All great questions. like. So right now, I've mentioned that they can't go into too much detail. I've mentioned
Starting point is 01:00:47 in a few different things that my show, plus a lot of other shows kind of got screwed by a particular place where we were owed some cashish, didn't get it, and had to kind of move on to other things. It was just the whole thing. So in order to kind of catch up and do those things, we've been chugging along and doing things, but certain sacrifices and things had to be met. Now, I do a few things here, whether it's the show that I've been doing and the big thing and all these other things
Starting point is 01:01:22 that I've been doing here, plus I'm producing Katie Sackoff show. So all my time and effort has gone there until we start really building up more to where we think. And the other thing is not a lot of people who are watching those shows. And that other channel, I've tried everything to try to get that channel back
Starting point is 01:01:39 into the algorithm, everything, and I can't do it. So that channel is a tough one. I put clips on there, but that's really about it. So no plans at the current moment.
