Hey, you ever heard that song rosy by
Then Lizzie no
Careful dude, you can't even do that. No, you can't even hum the damn this this technology's got so
They've kind of bad lyrics
But I think one of the lines he just goes
She knows music. I know music
That's a great lyric man, you like that? If radio headed ridden that, we'd be like, damn, Tom York.
Damn, Tom York did it again.
He did it again.
Well, welcome back everybody.
It's the first of the year.
First of the year.
I feel like I-
Not the date.
Huh?
Not the date.
No, it's not that date.
It's actually January 6th.
Is it? And that's why we're recording early because me and Ben had a flight to DC to catch
Because we got celebrate raise hell. Yeah. Yeah
Well, I feel a little weird because we haven't been in studio in a few weeks
Do you do you got butterflies? No, no, you're nervous
Got butterflies? No, no.
You're nervous?
No, a little bit.
My brain has been a bit more malleable in plastics
since I've been doing the ketamine therapy.
And I real quick, I wanted to,
I mean, I'll talk about it more later, but dude,
I had this one session, man, like a week ago.
And I swear to God, I experienced psychedelic hell.
Nice.
It was aggressively terrifying.
What, what a hell of a-
It wasn't like actual hell with fire and shit, but-
The devil wasn't there?
No, normally with ketamine, you're, you know,
you're in it for 45 minutes and you can generally sense
that that's how much time has elapsed.
It doesn't feel like there's any kind of time dilation.
But buddy, I felt like I was in there for years, unknown amounts of years, and unknown
amounts of years.
It seriously felt like I was, I had died whenever and my soul was just lost in wherever the fuck it was.
And it's like I couldn't fix my vision on anything.
It was just nebulous.
She said you should have told them.
Well, I did.
Excuse me.
You guys put me in hell.
I uttered the words help me.
And the therapist came over and I felt her grip my hand,
but I was still just like, I don't know who I am
and where I am. And the people that I think I know
might be figments of my imagination
or they feel like bygone remnants of a life
that I lived 50 years ago.
And what she said, she didn't say anything
because then I said, please kill me.
Well, for those of you who are wondering
if Ben is doing better after break, by the way,
I am, I am.
And I, I don't want to a couple of weeks ago, I would have started crying, just thanking
people for their kind messages.
But truly, it, I got so many I couldn't respond to as usual, all of them, but people were
incredibly sweet and kind.
So thank you to everybody who sent me positive words.
It really, it really touched me in the privates.
And thank you to everyone who said horrible things about me.
Who said horrible things?
And there were pretty things people said horrible things.
No, the after hours with Ben and Wally.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you mean Zach and Wally? Yeah. Yeah.
Welcome back to the beat man. We're not getting done with you. Yeah
Don't meet up, you know.
Be quick, solve this.
Be quick, 100,000.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Oh, hey, before we forget, oh, we don't have the timer going.
Steve's lets.
Check that disclaimer in the box.
Also, gotta give a huge, huge mother effing shout out
to Glenn.
Glenn, who I got to see over the Christmas break in New York.
Did you tell him to please kill you?
Ah, no, I did not.
But Glenn still listens to every episode.
He loves us.
He sends his love and we certainly love him.
Yeah, he told me. Yeah.
And so all the Glenn heads up there.
No, he's sending weird pictures and he just ignores it.
Doesn't even say anything.
What did you send back?
A weird picture.
I sent him, you know, stuff.
Okay, he just winked at me.
That's interesting.
Okay, a couple other clear.
Hey, by the way, so the trade-to-tree house is up.
And apparently there was some confusion about what the hell it is.
It is a chat room for trading.
Hence the name Trader Treehouse.
TR-A-I-T-O-R.
No, no, no, no, sir.
It's for all of...
We're organizing.
At this point, we're all, we'll have already gone,
but we'll do one probably in a couple of months,
but we're going down to DC with the trader tree house.
And we're going to string up that treasonous mother fucker, Joe Biden.
I have, I am not affiliated with that trader tree house, but mine is, yeah, it's where
you can trade with me and I can, you know, we trade together.
That's all it is.
So if you're curious, go check it out.
It's cool.
Um, hey, you got any New Year's resolutions?
Do you want me to just...
Or you're gonna save it for the after hours.
But you clearly want me to ask you a little.
Ask me what?
What do you want to ask me?
Do you have any New Year's resolutions? Yeah, it's about 1080p
I really get it man. I
Thought it was a Lucian no, no, that's it. It's a it's a like a television resolution. It's a tech joke
No, no, that's it. It's a like a television resolution. It's a tech joke. Yeah, just so everyone knows before we started He was like make sure you get my new year's resolution. That's not true
Really thought he had something cooking. Yeah, I got that fire joke. I heard a lot of laughs from
Yeah, yeah, I heard some
Chuggles maybe backstage maybe it was gagging. I don't know we're on a boat my man. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I heard some chuggles. Maybe backstage. Maybe it was gagging, I don't know. We're on a boat, my man.
Yeah, oh yeah, I mean, from the...
But the real New Year's, now,
the real New Year's resolution is,
we've talked about this, we are committed.
Oh, yes.
Two, A, no not Q1.
That's right.
All right, we are, we're gonna accomplish all our goals.
We're gonna, we're not coming.
All right.
And I have this handy chart that I wanted to share
with you and with the audience,
because when you deprive yourself of
mortal pleasures of the flesh, things start to happen.
I feel clearer than I've ever felt.
See now, you have, you have, you're, well, see, okay, I'm on,
I can, I can.
So look, all right, for the audio listener,
you can just get in the air with us here,
because I forgot which friend of mine made this,
but a friend of mine on Twitter made this years ago
because I was personally at the time
trying to abstain from everything.
And I would struggle the most around day seven.
So he-
We're not there yet.
No, we're not, but he made this handy chart
which has on the X-axis, you've got days
and on the Y-axis, you've got, I don't, it's a percentage.
And there are three lines that are going, you've got your horny level, your energy level
and your judgment.
So it starts out, you know, day one, horny, energy, and judgment.
All are kind of moving into tandem.
And then, and going slightly up.
Yeah, going slightly up.
The less, the less you're coming.
Yeah, the more clear you're seeing.
But your horny levels are steadily rising.
Yeah, you're horny, which is now alert.
Yeah, by the way, this whole thing is called
the no-fappers gambit.
Because, because you're not fast.
It is, but it is also, it is a gambit Fapper's Gambit. Because you're not fapping.
It is, but it is also, it is a gambit because you are, you're putting, you're taking a risk
and the risk is that, so around, around day six, your horny levels are still pretty elevated
but your energy levels spike.
It's true.
Your energy levels do spike, but day seven is where your judgment peaks and then
falls off a cliff. It is very true. Right. Because you're just you're too horny. You can't even think
straight. And beyond day eight, you you enter into. Go ahead. You enter into a mental state known as Gizadler's ruin.
So, I'll loathe.
That is when your judgment has just troughed and it just, it plummets and it doesn't recover.
Whereas your horny levels have absolutely skyrocketed to 150%.
So I just wanted to say I wish you good luck as you enter Jizz Adler's ruined.
I wish you good luck as well.
Well, buddy.
And Jizz Adler's ruined lasts until day 14.
And once you're in there, you're in there and it's tough.
But you gotta stick it out.
That's also right around when the podcast is going to take a hard pivot.
We're going to become, we're going to start selling supplements.
We're going to be a misogynist podcast.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So the lots to look forward to in NNQ1.
Yeah.
What's the Hunger Games made of odds?
May the odds be in your favor.
May you, may you kill or something.
Kill each other.
Oh, kill all right.
Yeah.
That's my New Year's resolution.
What?
May the odds ever be in your favor?
Yeah, that's what.
What odds ever be in your favor?
I think we never being the first guy.
Yeah, the hungry games.
Hungry games.
Yeah, it's a movie, dude.
My New Year's resolution is I'm gonna kill Ben at some point this year.
That's cool.
I look forward to that.
Also, we're okay.
So we said we bid farewell to my car. I sold my car yesterday.
That's two days ago for you guys. Wait, is today? Yeah, that's two days ago for you guys today for me yesterday for me.
And finally before we get into it, we are shooting for
100,000 subscribers.
So we want to get that YouTube plaque because that is all that matters in this life.
And there's nothing else.
So please help us because we need, we need that North Star.

Being too hot.
Well, let's see what we got here.
I don't know if it's good to...
A good time to look at this picture when me and you are no nutting.
Oh, shit.
So, it's Bert Reynolds and he's laying on a fur thing and it's sepia-toned thing from a magazine.
That could be one of the images, me and you recreating this.
Ah, yeah.
Okay.
The whole calendar should just be that.
But instead I'll be Bert Reynolds and you'll be the bear rug.
As you wish.
You know what, that's just, that's whatever you want, Emil.
Thanks, pal.
We got to do like sexy firefighter.
Anything else?
Well, just do sexy firefighter.
Yeah, just sexy firefighter and then one burnt Reynolds. We're at ground zero.
Ooh, ooh.
Sexy ground zero.
Picking up rubble.
Okay, anyway, hey, also stay tuned because we're gonna debut our first ever high. We don't have a name for the segment yet
But we're we'll think of one. Yeah for our headlines. So we're gonna be doing that later anyway. Let's get right into it
How about it? Wait, but you gotta explain what it is if you haven't seen I think
Yeah, you can go ahead. What is it? It was like is the last episode before we left. Yes
We did some SNL style headline jokes.
Yeah, we can update some.
And we've tweaked it.
And made it better.
We've made it better or worse.
And we're gonna do it and it's gonna be sick.
Oh yeah, in our case, worse is better.
But we wrote jokes and everything.
Well, we hired an entire writing staff.
Oh yeah, that's what I meant.
And if you'd like to get in send your packet to
Anyway, we had some we had some people at the end of 2022 hoping for some seasonality to save the day and what I mean by that is there's
Something called a Santa rally that always always always always gets talked about in the day. And what I mean by that is there's something called a Santa rally that always,
always, always, always gets talked about in the markets.
And guess what?
That Santa rally didn't happen.
Seasonally failed to deliver.
Santa was too busy.
Fucking Mrs. Claw.
Wait, so what's something?
What happens usually around Christmas?
Yeah, just like there's a rally just in the year end kind of thing.
You know, it's another one of those fucking bullshit things. Like what? Some may go away. Yeah, yeah, I forgot the origin of that. But
anyway, so it was just a bit of a shitty capstone to 2022, which was Wall
Streets worst year since 2008. Yeah, Wall Street, I mean, 2022 was kind of just a
shitty capstone to 2021,
which was a wild ride of a year.
That's right. Yeah, it finished down 20% nearly.
And I believe I, so I saw that only seven stocks accounted
for 800 basis points of that drop, which is fucking bananas.
What do you mean? Like seven stocks were responsible for the majority of.
For bringing it all down that far?
For at least 800 basis points for it.
Wow.
Do you remember?
I believe that's 8%.
It's like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Tesla.
I was gonna say, the fame.
The big stocks.
Yeah, the same stocks that gave the market a boost in 2020.
Absolutely, just got demolished.
Yeah, well growth stocks generally got fucking reamed
because everybody was long and everybody was leveraged
and everybody was loving the growth stocks
for the longest time because we had a decade
plus of easy money policies and liquidity being just
absolutely fucked into the,
well that was graphic, justed into the, well, that was graphic.
Just injected into the market.
So everybody and their mom and their dad
and their cousins was long, all these growth stocks.
And when they started dropping, they went further
and farther and down more.
You see, I told you dude, my brain ain't all there.
It's the elasticity, the, that's the play.
The Kerala plastic.
The ketamine is working.
Yeah, I still, I can't be sure what's real anymore.
You're still in hell.
Uh, no, I hope not.
Kill me.
But, there's only one way to find out dude.
But yeah, everybody was long these names and as it unwound, it just got more and more
painful because that many fucking people and entities and institutions in all these things Yeah, everybody was long these names and as it unwound, it just got more and more painful
because that many fucking people and entities and institutions in all these things.
Jesus Christ, it's like, yee-ees.
Look at Carvana. Carvana fell from, well, like, 400 bucks a share to like, five bucks, whatever it was.
Yeah, those are the funny ones. The people who became billionaires for a year.
Yeah. Now they're just like, fuck.
Or the people just, I remember from the COVID lows,
there was a guy, some executive at overstock.com,
sold like all of his shares at like six bucks or something.
And then it shot to like 120 or something.
He left over a billion dollars on the table.
It was so sad.
I personally left a fuck ton of money on the table between so
many
it's pretty good that i did all right
you know who beat the market last year
not all of them though not all of them but a lot of members of congress
members of congress see let's see who uh...
i'll tell you what
debut waserman sholts
she's crushing it
yeah but who the fuck is Patrick Fallon?
I don't know.
He's a Republican.
He made 51.6% return.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz got 50.8.
The two of them, what are they?
Husband and wife?
You know who's down big?

Oh, oh my God.
Oh no. Yeah. No. And
Mitch McCall. Mitch McCall down 6.9
percent. Tommy Tuberville best name in
the best name. Marjorie Green up.
Marjorie Taylor Green up 6.2% good for her.
All these numbers, that's not that I don't
know what the fuck. I mean this isn't
whatever. But yeah damn dude Patrick Fallon. Probably in a bunch of oil and gas names because I know that those did well Debbie Schultz
No clue what the fuck which we had which which I knew what they were in
I'm sure we could track them. Yeah
Man, I'm gonna be trying not to burp. I tell you what did this been drift. I know I know
Did you see Lauren the video of Lauren Bobert?
She's standing in front of the they're trying to remove the
the metal detectors they put in I guess after January 6th. She's just standing in front.
Last year Nancy Pelosi put in put in these
un-American metal detectors. And now that the house has gone
That'll detect her. Uh-huh.
And now that the house has gone...
Republic in there.
Oh yeah.
They're removing them.
And they're giving every visitor a gun.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, oh, oh, Pat found.
Okay, let's see what he's got.
Well, these are all cells.
Um...
What the fuck did he have last year?
This is tough.
Looks like he sold a bunch of...
Maybe he just sold a bunch of shit.
He had Apple, he had Boeing, Boeing's up like 40 something percent.
There you go, Chevron.
Maybe good for you, dude.
Good for you, dude.
You know, fuck it.
I read that between Chevron and whatever the other
dickhead oil and gas companies,
they're gonna, they're on track to make a hundred billion in profits.
Last year.
I say God bless them.
I say God bless them too.
I say that they should reinvest it into more fracking
to get the frickin' oil out there.
Get all that oil out of the ground and burn it up, baby.
Yeah, burn it up, dude.
Let's just go full bore.
Maybe if we warm up, maybe if we,
maybe we evolve to get,
hey, here's something new evolution guys.
What if we just evolved to adapt to the warmer weather, huh?
Yeah, you ever think about that?
Yeah, look at the Middle East, dip shit.
Also, I don't know about you, but it's cold as shit in LA.
Yeah, I don't know.
Oh, it's something that's a good,
maybe burn up some more dinosaurs.
Yeah, fuck a Stegosaurus.
No, I like that.
It's not actually dinosaurs.
Are you serious?
It's like, yeah, it's not.
Well, what is it then?
I thought it was organic life that had been turned into-
Yeah, I think it is, but I don't think it's dinosaurs.
That's fucked up, man.
I know, that's fucked up. They lied to us in school anyway.
And not only that, but we had Elon Musk and Mark Zuckercorn and the... Right, so the top,
the huge billionaires, they really saw their wealth, their net worth decreasing a huge way. So
I think it's $1.4 trillion. The world's 500 richest billionaires lost 1.4 trillion dollars in a year
I can do one line you can do 10 seconds before the one line of thin Lizzie out do it now. Okay get it out now
All right. Damn.
Wow, that was fucking hot, dude.
Elon lost, he's the first,
we gotta give it up to him.
He's the first human male to.
In a year of milestones, he became the first person
to lose $200 billion in net worth.
Gotta give it up to him.
That's actually, it takes a genius to,
a first accumulate that much money to lose in the first place.
Well, that's the thing.
It's fun to make fun of all these things, but it's like,
yeah, he had $340 billion, $20 billion.
On paper, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I'm gonna sit here and make fun.
It's like when people do that stupid shit,
oh, the mega million is up to a billion dollars.
That's what we like like 600 million after Texas.
Shut the shut up.
Yeah, we all know by now.
That is a dumb joke.
Yeah, it really is.
You'll also be fine.
You boring asshole.
What are you gonna do with the money anyway?
I hope your family killed you over it.
Damn.
Wow, that reminds me.
I got I have a I won $10 on a scratcher because I bought it for a secret
Santa thing or a white elephant thing.
And no, was it it?
Yeah, I bought a $20 scratcher, nobody took it so I took my own scratcher and then I won
$10 and I was like, cool, I'm going to recycle this in the more loud of tickets.
That's a good one to bring.
Yeah, I know, it's a great one.
No one wanted it?
Nobody sought, because I didn't really wrap it.
I just tossed it next to all the other things.
It was three of them, so it's like-
But did you go last?
No, I went like midway through.
And no one wanted the scratchers.
Nobody wanted the scratchers.
Someone wanted like, oh, those weed.
And someone got weed.
Yeah, it's always weird. I know
One time I brought a
Little book called
Everything you need to know about being vegetarian or something like that
I think I ended up with beans. I think I ended up with it. Yeah, you probably did I already had a copy
That's a problem. Yeah, so Elon losing all that money means what? Tesla has
been fucking tankin'. And I think, was it me? Was it me on this show? Did the next big domino to fall
in the world of all of this is Elon Musk? I believe he's getting margin-called. The further the price
goes, the more he has to sell, the more he's got to sell, the more everybody else
now knows, okay, the jig is up.
Playing out of prediction, the Tesla was gonna-
Oh, I got to say.
Okay, so what, they're down 69% on the year.
Something like that.
But he's not the only one.
I mean, he's exceptional, but you know,
what is meta?
59%.
Something meta-drought this, fuck.
Google is a shit ton Amazon, I think is at least 50% sure
But I mean Tesla Apple took a huge fucking hit right every every big tech company took a huge hit
But I feel like Tesla's fallen grace was
Probably one of the biggest
Not probably was one of the biggest ever cuz their market cap was over trillion bucks and now they're down to what three hundred and thirty
Yeah, that's fucking insane. It is and then they had this and it's great because you get to watch Elon be so public about all this right the I don't think he cares
No, but I mean when they hit a trillion he had his snarky tweets of oh yeah, oh, I don't remember it's raining in shortville
He loved calling shortville shortville,
like where all the short sellers live.
But they tanked, they had delivery numbers
out over the weekend and they were,
they came in, they had grown year over year
in like month over month,
but they came in lighter than expected anyway
and the stock took a bit of a hit.
Right.
Instead of growing 50% over the year, they grew to like 40%.
Yeah.
They missed their analyst estimates.
But as one analyst said, yeah, it might be the first signs that their growth, the rate
of growth for them is not as sustainable as I feel like the best is behind them in terms
of the stock performance.
That's just my wild guess.
I mean, I would imagine that's true.
There are a lot of things.
I mean, there are just so many people making electric cars now.
Yeah.
And also they've lost their cool factor.
You see, I mean, it feels cringey to.
Oh God, I know.
For so many people, for such a huge part of his potential market. He's alienated himself. He's lost his cool
I mean there I
Was at Christmas parties and people were talking about him and they were like literally up until this year
I didn't know that much about the guy who was I would kind of just go
Oh, he's a cool guy who's got all these great ideas for humanity
Sure, and that's pretty much all I thought about him. And now I'm like, oh, this dude is so embarrassing.
Yeah.
Yeah, I feel like that about sums it up.
Yeah.
And the build quality and all that other shit that is part of it.
But didn't he say that, you know, the future of Tesla is
staked on full self drive.
And it's just...
Coming to fruition and...
Yeah.
All you see about it is it just mowing down kids and...
Well, fake kids. Or fake kids. Fake kids. and all you see about it is it just mowing down kids and
fake kids, fake kids.
Or rear-ending, real, like there was just that video of the guy
who he had his hazard done because his car broke down
and the Tesla just slams into the back.
Luckily the guy was out of the car.
Oh, yeah, well.
But, and they were, you know, that New York Times article
where they followed the guy around all day and just
Listed all the mistakes it made throughout the day. Well, it's not perfect
Yeah, even though he promised it would be ready next year in 2015 2016 2017 18 19 every year
It's next year. I think he stopped. I think he just stopped talking about 2023 is there year. Well the
Cyber truck is coming.
Is it?
Are you serious?
I don't know, that's what he said.
Oh, I thought that there was some new headline about it.
That is come.
He said it should come this year.
Jesus Christ.
Kathy Wood bought a bunch of stock on the drop.
Don't really hear much about her.
You don't.
There's a lot of people you don't hear about anymore.
What about that guy?
You don't like, who he got very people here about anymore. What about that guy? You don't like who he
got very rich on Tesla. Oh, um, meat Kevin. Yeah. I don't know. I haven't followed up, but I remember
he was buying. He was still buying a fuck ton. But that's got to be a guy who 300 or 200. His
net worth must have probably. Yeah. I don't know maybe maybe he took his
lot maybe he booked a loss on it but who knows and yeah it's been very funny I
mean not to be too into shodden for it but it is amusing to say the least you
know what's not amusing is COVID absolutely exploding in China.
This is so not amusing looking.
I was, we were together and we were looking at the stories.
Yeah.
And I was like, I can't look at these.
I'm getting blocked.
The PTSD from, it seems like they're going through exactly what we went through three years
ago at this point.
Yeah. exactly what we went through three years ago at this point. Yeah, because there's zero COVID policy,
ambitious and harsh as it was,
was only kicking the can and delaying the inevitable,
which is this shit is here, dude.
Peeling away those COVID protections.
Yeah.
It's supposedly running wild through China.
It's quite difficult to actually figure out what's going on.
China's got a strange way of reporting.
Is one way to put it.
They're just not reporting it, really.
Yeah, the PRC government cannot be fully transparent
because admitting the scale of the outbreak
in numbers of deaths would cause domestic challenges.
Right.
So, you know, people are trying to put it together through,
so I think this is from the New York Times.
Since China abandoned its restrictive zero COVID policy
about two weeks ago, the intensity and magnitude
of the country's first nationwide outbreak
has remained largely a mystery within the country.
With the country ending mass testing case counts
are less useful.
The government has a narrow definition
of which deaths should count as caused by COVID. Inactotal evidence like social media postings of hospitals,
morgs, overcrowded with body bags is quickly taken down by sensors. And so they have some people
from different provinces talking about one official from Zajang home to 65 million people estimated
that daily COVID cases there had exceeded one million. In the Eastern city of King Dow, population 10 million, health
minister said that they were roughly half million new cases each
day, don one 250,000 to 300,000 new cases daily. So it seems
like it's kind of to the party. Seriously. And so that that
narrow definition of what a COVID death is means that they are
The narrow definition of what a COVID death is means that they are,
they're releasing data that says they'll have COVID deaths in the single digits.
They're releasing data that says that?
Yeah, what about Mama?
No word on Mama yet.
But I mean, I'm pretty sure in America, which a lot of people have immunity and
are generally vaccinated, we probably had 300 COVID deaths yesterday.
Is that not that's not a lot compared to what we were at.
We were at like 3,000 a day.
Are you talking about nationwide?
300?
I'm pretty sure.
Gally.
I mean, yeah, remember they would say, oh my, we're having a 9-11 a day.
Yeah.
But so, how many, how many did we have yesterday?
315.
There you go.
That's like three days ago for you guys, but a couple days ago for us.
So yeah, China, having, having it just ripped, there's no way they're having five deaths.
No, no, they're having-
And not only that, so they're getting pissed because the EU, United States, other countries
are trying to put in restrictions,
you know, where you have to take a PCR test before you leave or on arrival, saying that
you're negative, and they're getting pissed and calling it political, but...
Oh, I mean...
You guys.
There was two planes in Italy that came in from China, both...
Full of Chinese people?
I would imagine so.
Okay.
But half of the people on the plane came off
and tested positive.
Jesus Christ.
The good thing is, the sub-erlining is,
it doesn't seem like they've had rampant spread
of new variants.
Yeah.
So, people have a pretty good immunity
to the ones that are coming out of China, I guess.
Yeah. When I got it, it was fine. People have pretty good immunity to the ones that are coming out of China, I guess.
Yeah. When I got it, it was fine.
Which one did you get? I don't know.
Whatever the effects, cool. You got the good one.
Yeah, I got the good one. You made it a long time without getting it.
I know. It's impressive. I've got good genes, ladies.
Apparently not, though. They broke down. Shut up.
I mean, they lasted a long time and it you know
Just saying what do you say?
Just saying I got a good jeans man, so your tone ladies. Yeah, yeah
so
You know
Speaking of airplanes this Southwest thing was a fucking mess. I hope I'm sure just by this year
Probability a number of people out there listening or watching
were affected by this.
Oh, that's true.
I was getting so scared coming back to LAX
because everyone was posting pictures
of just the absolute nightmare
that American airports were.
But I guess it was mostly a Southwest thing.
It was a big, it was largely a Southwest issue.
And for those of you who don't know,
it was basically, there were two reasons why
their meltdown happened. One, reason number one, they got this antiquated software. And
it made it hard for pilots and crew to get play. Like, apparently, there were plenty of
people who wanted to work, but they couldn't because the software was so shitty.
They have no good way of letting their managers know
when they're stuck in a place.
Yeah.
So they end up having to call it in
and there's no actual system to reroute them
to the next place.
Speaking of rerouting, that is the second problem.
Because Southwest, unlike other airlines,
Southwest does not have one big central hub.
So like Delta's big hub is in Atlanta.
And if you got like a layover, say you're flying from LA to New York, or LA to South Carolina
or something, you'd stop in Atlanta because that's their hub and they drop people off and
pick people up.
Southwest does not have that.
They just go from, they just hop around the country
willingly and there's no actual central place
where they call a bunch of their planes back to.
It's called the hub and spoke model
that these other airlines do.
Do you ever fly Southwest?
Yeah, I used to all the time.
I had a companion pass and everything.
You did?
Yeah.
It was one of my first four way, four A into credit cards
was Southwest to get the companion pass.
Oh, but you were turning.
Yeah, and I was also like,
Could you have to spend so much money to get it?
No, I just got two cards.
I got the business and the personal card.
And boom, you're pretty much there.
But it can be very, flying across,
flying to New York on Southwest,
I feel like they rarely have direct flight.
They do, they're just a little more expensive.
I know, but if you don't wanna pay a ton of money,
they're like, we can take you to Oakland first.
And you're like, what?
Yeah, what?
Well, so when I had the companion pass
and I was still a cheap fucking 25 year old,
I was going to New York with my good friend Jason.
And I said, hey man, let's fly to New York together.
I got you as my companion and I'll use my points so we can just fly there for free and he goes, okay, what's
the schedule? And I was looking for the cheapest possible way to use points and it was like
9,000 points, but it required flying out of John Wayne Airport in Orange County.
Jesus. A 5 a.m. flight that had two layovers, one in San Francisco and one in like Ohio.
So what should have been a six hour or five or six hour flight straight shot to New York was no joke 12 hours.
Jesus. We arrived in New York and I was like, whoa, we finally made it and didn't spend the time.
It's like cool, dude. Great. Yeah, it's totally worth it
Yeah, I will say that before the pandemic it they were kind of my favorite to fly just because they were the only ones where you did have flexibility
Oh, yeah, they're great. You can cancel it but now everyone kind of does it. Yeah, it's true
But god the ability to literally 10 minutes before your flight be like I don't want to go. I'm fucking I'm not going
Yeah, give my my bag
You know what their stock symbol is
L.U.V. Let me fucking guess you weren't gonna guess it that was literally I had I had the L in the U I swear really? No, because you know their whole thing is love like the heart and shit and they got yeah
L.U.V. Thank you, but I thought they had a big hub in Texas, Dallas and Austin.
Um, that's where they originated.
Oh, okay.
It was, it was, the original business plan was drawn on a cocktail napkin, famously.
Oh, okay.
And it was, um, it was, it was, it was.
It's like with JK Rowling.
I wrote Harry Potter on napkins.
No, you didn't. You'd them.
Go ahead.
You're gonna say the B word. Man, dude, that's f- You can call her a bitch. You can call anybody a bitch. I'm a bitch.
It was between, I think, like El Paso, Houston and Dallas, or something like that.
And it was, they were coming up with this, I don't know, this fucking model.
But I don't buy that hub stuff as much.
So, because there were literally,
the pilots who have worked for Southwest for a long time,
they, there was two of them I saw.
They wrote up their thing.
They were like working for Southwest
had been great for a very long time.
And then, it's a very Boeing situation.
It's always that.
The CEO, I'm forgetting his name, Gary, some Gary airplane. Gary
airplane takes over, but what is Gary? An airplane. It's in the name, dude. An accountant.
Oh, yeah. It's always a geek. And he he names as a CEO CEO
Oh, another
Counted damn it. I wanted you to say airplane. But another airplane. Take it again. He named as the go guys a little septum
He named as a CEO. Oh another airplane. No, a helicopter. No, it was another account. Oh, another door. You know, like geek. And so it was all about financials, right?
Yeah.
And instead of investing in the company, investing in the employees, it was all about just, you
know, the bottom line.
And the New York Times actually had a great opinion piece about it and talked about what
is going on here.
And because everyone, it seems to have come out of nowhere for everyone, but they
point out that they were on strike for a lot of this year.
And the employees were asking for these upgrades, right?
It was a big, so throughout this...
It's to the system.
Yes.
And sometimes it would appear higher on their list of demands than pay, better pay.
Wow.
So throughout the past year, the flight attendants union
picketed in front of various airports as part of their contract negotiations.
One protest sign in the demonstrators carried a placard declaring another victim of SWAs
outdated technology with a graphic showing a stuck software progress bar.
In September, they put the same sign lamenting the company's outdated technology on the side
of a truck and drove it in circles
around Lovefield, Southwest's core airport in Dallas,
as well as the nearby Southwest headquarters.
In March, in an open letter to the company,
the union even placed updating
the creaking scheduling technology
above its demands for increased pay.
Wow.
Yeah.
That numbers geek just couldn't be bothered, man.
He's too busy.
No, because the only thing that matters to him is the stock price right? Yeah.
And then you hope that you can kick the can down the road long enough that by the time you're
out of there, it's some other guy's fucking problem. You took your payout and you're gone.
Oh man. It would seem as though this system that we're in is imperfect.
Yeah, you know what we could use and does not favor consumers or workers.
We could use regulators like a department of transportation.
Oh man, but we have booted, yeah, booted, judge.
So he could, there's something,
there's some connection to be made for him and the bottom line.
Oh, well, when you said bottom line earlier,
I wanted to make a joke that that's a butt crack.
It is technically the bottom line.
So moving on.
What the heck is that fucking timer?
He's dripping me out, man.
It keeps fucking dripping me out, dude.
Man, am I in, what do you call it?
Hell, ketamine? You know, I can't think of a good transition
for this. Speaking of regulation. Yeah, speaking of regulation, we got more members of
Congress calling for social media regulation in 2023 and I applaud it. I think that we
got to get that we got to get the ball rolling on this
and it scares the shit out of it.
Right, and they already passed the bill
that they want TikTok off of all government phones.
And not just all government devices.
You're not allowed to look at dancing when you're at work.
Yeah, all right.
But now they want to go further.
Mike Gallagher from Wisconsin compared TikTok
to quote, digital fentanyl on Sunday.
And he thinks that the ban on the app should be expanded
nationally.
Amy Klobuchar said the tech lobby is so powerful
that bills with strong bipartisan support
can fall apart within 24 hours.
It's like the back.
I was trying to find, dude, that's, I was trying to find that quote.
There was someone who was talking, it was a while ago.
Someone was talking about how, you know, in a couple of decades,
we're gonna look at social media the way we looked at-
Couple decades, buddy.
No, no, this was a while ago.
Oh yeah.
Honestly, it might still take a while though.
People are, I don't think the movement to ban,
I know amongst us, we're like, yeah, ban them.
Yeah.
It'd be great, but I don't think there's a big popular movement
to ban social media.
It, it, it, it.
But people, but he was basically saying that in a couple,
however long, we're gonna look back at social media
the same way we looked at Big Tobacco.
And be like, I can't believe we really go on for this long.
Yeah.
I don't know what the answer is.
I really don't.
You know what, my answer is so far that's been working.
What?
So we have this, tell me what you think about this.
Oh, I'll tell you what I think.
Oh, I'm sure you will.
So me and my friends were talking about this,
how everyone kind of agrees that technology makes them
less happy.
They're addicted to their phones, all this stuff.
But you obviously don't want to, it's hard to be like, go back into the Stone Age.
You know, we'll just ban technology as you can't have certain things.
But you know what my solution is?
Locking your phone in a plastic box.
No, no, no.
We go back, desktops only.
You know what I mean?
So you can still have all of your, like you don't have to ban Instagram, you don't have
to ban TikTok, but you have to be on a desktop.
Buddy, that's okay.
You want to know what I think about that?
No, good.
I don't think that that's any good.
Why?
Because we need cell phones.
For okay, I guess we survived without them for so long. Yeah, what do you talk and?
You can have a foot phone
Yeah, you just can't access all that bullshit on your phone. Yeah
Yeah, what do you need a cell phone for? I don't know dude to give my balls cancer
You know what I would love about it. It's made every, you give someone a time.
And it's such a loose thing to them.
Give someone a time.
Say, hey, we're gonna leave it 4.30.
Meet me here at 4.30 and we go.
Yeah.
But people text you and they go, and they go,
oh, I'm actually gonna run late.
I'll be there at 5.
And you go, what the fuck?
I'm here.
If there was no cell phones,
people would be more at 4.30, I'm leaving.
Pungo?
I told him to be here at 4.30, he's not here.
Yeah, oh, there's this.
Yeah, I like this thing.
Pulled up something called the light phone.
It's a premium minimal phone.
It will never have social media.
Clickbait news, email, and internet browser
or any other anxiety inducing infinite feed.
It's an experience we call going light. Sounds like it's for hippies.
There's a headphone jack Bluetooth and it can be used as a personal hotspot to power your iPhone.
Did you see the New York Times article about the kids who are unplugging?
I think they call themselves the Luddites or something?
Oh yeah, that's cool.
I'm good for them. And they're happier. They all talk about how happy they are.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But they just get together and read books. It's very funny.
Yeah. Jesus Christ, man.
I mean, it's a group of dorks.
No. It's...
I saw it being shared all around and people were making it seem, it's, it was, I saw it being shared all around and it, it, people were making it seem, you know,
everyone loves to post it and go, the kids are all right or whatever.
She, but it's a group of, you know, five kids in Brooklyn or whatever.
Yeah.
It's not, it's not as if teens are, and mass, getting rid of Instagram and,
yeah, instant, gram, instant, gram and,
we should start calling it that,
make it less appealing to go on.
You do the black and white thing, don't you?
Were you turning your phone on grayscale?
A grayscale it, and now I've got this app, Opal.
I recommend Opal to anyone, it kicks ass.
Ooh, you know what?
You know what blocks?
I just put in whatever apps I don't want.
Blocks you out, and I can't get in.
You know what I kind of want to do is make my,
go into the accessible settings and make everything huge
so that it just makes it unnavigable.
Unusable?
Yeah, just like huge.
I have to look.
Well, I want to look at a picture.
It's just, it's just taking up the whole thing.
It's a no, I, you know, people were, because of the end of the year,
they were releasing all the books they read and stuff.
Yeah.
And I was like, man, I read way less books this year.
How many of you read like a thousand?
No, I read, I mean, I read 26 books.
But usually it's like, it's better than that.
Yeah, I read like 27.
That's pretty good. Yeah, there it's better than that. Yeah, I read like 27. That's pretty good.
Yeah, there's one more than you.
But I was pissed, that's one more than you.
I'd like to read more books this year.
I buy them and then I just put them on, I stack them.
And I don't read them.
I got to read them.
No shit, I know.
Also, I think I gotta get an e-reader.
Yeah, I bought, I think I brought four books to Paris.
My backpack's so heavy.
So heavy.
So heavy.
And then what do you do with them after?
They sit on your shelf and you dust them
from time to time.
You never pick them up again.
That's actually not true.
I underline things as I read.
And I'm constantly going back to books and find stuff.
Well, I do remember that sentence.
Well, it did come from a book.
I didn't just dream it or write it myself.
Wow, that confirms it.
Well, I'm going to put you back on the shelf.
It's you.
It's you going through your books.
Okay, we're going to take a quick,
we're going to come back and do our headlines.
I'm going to cut away.
Well, this is still new guys.
So give us a fucking break, all right?
Maybe we can let them watch us change.
No.
No.
Welcome to the first edition of Trillionaire Newsline,
where we fit in all the news that didn't fit into
the regular episode right into the regular episode.
That sentence hurt me.
I'm sorry about that Ben.
Yes.
That is correct.
I'm a meal derose of Trillionaire newsline and this is Ben Con.
We don't know what we're calling it yet.
I'm not crazy about Trillionaire newsline to be honest.
I don't.
But right now it's a working title.
Yeah, but right now it's a work in progress.
So let's get right into it.
What do you say folks?
Sure, we've got some big headlines here.
Yeah, big headlines.
So first up, a recent survey from the conference board
found that nearly 100% of CEOs in the US and Europe
are bracing for a recession.
But what none of them are bracing for?
A rare but serious strain of recession-induced business
diarrhea, which has claimed
the lives of at least a dozen CEOs since the 1950s. The most famous case, of course,
being the CEO of Oldsmobile, who shit himself to death in a speeding cutler supreme before
crashing into a crowded farmer's market.
Discraced comedian Bill Cosby plans the tour in 2023, when asked to comment on how the
public will react considering his sexual assault charges, Cosby had this to say,
I'm really looking forward to getting back on the road and doing what I do best, making
people laugh and also raping women.
Controversial CEO of BlackRock, Larry Fink thinks Wall Street's gloomy forecasts for 2023
are exaggerated, instead referring to the coming economic period as more of a quote, malaise.
Think at it that quote, I don't care how bad the economy gets.
They can't stop me from making millions of dollars the only way I know how.
Sucking and fucking my weird son in front of the other CEOs and their sons who pay us
to watch.
Louisiana now requires a government ID to access Pornhub.
A new law requires age verifications for sites with a high enough percentage of pornography.
If everything goes well, Louisiana might watch less porn and finally start fucking their
actual sisters again.
While stocks and bonds were down, last year the price of coal actually tripled in 2022.
In a devastating blow to Santa Claus and concerned parents, record numbers of naughty children
across America have been reportedly trading in their coal for premium cigarettes and
BB guns.
When reached for comment, local seventh grade troublemaker Todd Sousa rejoiced, saying
quote, this fucking rules, I just traded all my coal for that gun I'd had my eye on.
In other news, a group of 300 Microsoft video game testers formed the company's first
US Union, a top-there list of demands is swirly-proof toilets,
wedgie-proof underwear, and girlfriend.
Dupai has made a major change to its alcohol policy
by getting rid of its 30% tax on booze
and will no longer charge visitors for permits
to buy drinks for at least a year.
It's the latest step by a Middle Eastern country
to become more attractive to tourists, workers, and businesses on a global scale. Not to be outdone, Saudi Arabia announced
their own tourism initiative with a new mascot called Oily, an anthropomorphic barrel of
oil, with large breasts who is also a virgin.
Well, that wraps it up for our first edition of whatever the fuck this segment will be called.
So thank you for joining and tune in, continue to continue to join in for this week and next
and the rest of them for the rest of the year.
This is going to be great.
And if you didn't like any of the jokes
It's our fucking writing team. Yeah, who we
Also, we'll be let us know which what we'll fire whoever wrote those. Yeah. Yeah. Well whoever did that whoever did those or also don't Right, there's enough there's enough layoffs going on with you guys getting some poor kid fired. Yeah from his first
Comedy writing job. Yeah, no fucking kidding, man.
We got, we, if you have any ideas for what we should call that segment, let us know.
And if you got better ideas for any jokes that we may have missed, you can write them down
and stick them up your butt hole.
But no, send them to us first.
So that, well, it's going to be useless first. So that while it's gonna be useless
because we've already done the fucking jokes.
Yeah, by that time we'll be on the next ones.
Where were your jokes for the next ones?
Yeah, where were your jokes?
We could have used them.
Yeah, I put on this jacket and tie.
Can you see that I'm not tucked in?
Or is it good from the belly up?
Okay, cool.
So I'm not wearing anything down here.
His penis is literally hanging through his body.
Check it out, dude
Spread my urethra making it
All right, let's get let's end it with um, do we want to do crypto? Who gives a fucking rants ass, right?
What are do we should we do our predictions? I thought you were stoked on I thought you were stoked on salon. Oh, I'm not, but you said community, community sentiment of dog.
What the fuck is it called?
Bunk.
Alright, we'll do crypto corner.
Beep, beep, beep.
Isn't that what it's called?
Bunk.
Yeah, well, so a couple things.
Vitalik Buterin, the nerd who is in charge of Ethereum, who created Ethereum, I saw this,
he tweeted positively about Solana.
Let's pull up that tweet, I wanna reread it.
It's funny, it was like nine bucks when I saw this tweet
and I thought, I'm supposed to be some Solana
and now it's at like 15.
Vitalik said, some smart people tell me
there is an earnest smart developer community in Solana
and now that the awful opportunistic money people have been washed out, the chain
has a bright future.
Hard for me to tell from outside, but I hope the community gets its fair chance to survive.
And then he did two robot flexing arm emojis.
And I mean, some of the opportunistic money people that have been washed out, wink, wink,
nudge nudge was S-P-F. out, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, was SBF.
Oh, I should have said in airplane.
Oh, me!
Give me it again.
You know who some of the opportunistic money people
who've been washed out are?
Airplanes?
Close, SBF.
Oh, right.
Yeah, yeah.
Disgraced crypto airplane.
Airplane, yeah.
Yeah, SBF.
Because he was a big backer and also some big NFT projects left
Salana
And but Salana also went up on some new meme dog meme dog coin shit coin fucker coin community sentiment is pretty high
Oh, yeah, it's called one-bong
Bunk coin
So if you guys think the silly days of crypto are over,
you're right.
Yeah, because they're not over.
No, they are.
Bonk coin is clearly a resurgence.
I'm thinking I brought it.
Oh.
But it's a funny contrast to Vitalik being like,
all the silly monies out of here.
Oh, see, that went way over my head.
And we're introducing Bunk.
Yeah.
And community sentiment is at all time, hi.
Yeah, they sure love their fucking...
Crypto's a whole new environment now, okay?
Dog going his out?
Doge.
Did you know that the dog,
the dog from the Doge meme has like cancer or something?
It's sad.
If it's not dead already.
Boy, you should buy some doge coin
in anticipation for when the dog dies.
That's when the thing is going to skyrocket.
That's when it's really gonna go, man.
You getting that, I'll get get in a bunk. A bunk?
Oh man, there's so many,
you can't even make a funny coin anymore
because they've all like, there's shit coin,
there's come coin, there's scam coin.
You can't even-
Remember the unvaccinated sperm coin?
Yes.
Yeah, I do.
I hate this whole, I hate this whole world.
Just,
it's not real, you're still in a K hole. And also, SBF's trial is set for October 2nd.
He's pleading not guilty to all charges.
Pray tell SBF, what are you gonna do until then?
What is it?
Because he's out of bail, right?
Probably give weird interviews.
He probably...
He probably could.
I bet I bet he's got some grand scheme to make all the money back before then and then go,
does this release my liability?
I mean, it'll back.
What would he do?
I don't know. Create fucking centa fucking Reno and put it all on do like the Fed X CEO did when their company was on the
brink.
Yeah, but...
Gamble last 30,000 dollars.
I don't think they needed,
how many billions does it dollars does it need?
Eight.
That's it?
That's doable, right?
At a casino.
Yeah, just as much as you got into Bitcoin.
You're gonna have to assemble Danny Ocean
in his crack team, I think.
Yeah.
Oh, that'd be fun.
You know, I don't think I understand the ending
of Ocean's 11 and I've never quite come clean about that.
They won.
They built a mock casino.
But that doesn't make sense.
The mock casino part doesn't make sense.
What do you mean it doesn't make sense?
It sure does.
They are, they hacked into their security.
Yeah.
And so they're like putting the feed from there.
Yes. And making them, So when did they actually rob it? They rob it at some point they actually rob it at the time that they were robbing it
They think the the the casino guy thinks that the SWAT team has arrived to take care of the robbers
But little does he know the SWAT team is actually the robbers
Because they when he calls 911 it's not going to the,
I don't really know what happens either.
Because I remember getting high and like trying to put,
I was like, wait, it makes sense.
But the more I thought about it, the more I was like,
no, it doesn't.
This is so hard.
They try to make it make sense by showing you the whole thing,
but you're like,
Oh, yeah, I got it. Right. I get it.
The second one and third one made sense to me.
They were so such bad movies.
Not kind of like them.
Not the third one. The second one was fun. I mean, come on. All those hot boys running around Italy and
they're in Italy. Who were they robbing at this point?
Inzo Ferrari.
No, because remember the hot French guy is their nemesis and he
dances through the things but they stole it the whole time. No, I don't remember because I didn't
watch oceans 13. No, 12. This was 12. Oceans 12. So what about the 13? That one kind of sucks.
Alpachina is just really, oh Alpacanos in it. Yeah. Damn. Do you know what is kind of sucks, Al Pacino's in it. Yeah, damn. Do you know what is kind of shitty about Oceans 12?
What?
Julia Roberts, isn't it?
Okay. Oh yeah, I remember this, go on.
And part of the heist is that they pretend
Julia Roberts' character is Julia Roberts.
Yeah, Julia, it is canon that in Oceans 12,
there is a real celebrity. Julia Roberts exists. Name Julia Roberts Oceans 12 there is a real
celebrity. Julia Roberts exists named Julie Roberts. But Julia Roberts is not her.
Yeah. Her character just happens to be a doppelganger.
Tess is a doppelganger for Julie Roberts. So Tess and they have her asked for a private viewing.
Yeah. As Julie Roberts. It's yeah, there's a lot of suspension of belief I spit a lot of suspension of disbelief do you suspend your disbelief or
Belief which one do you which one are we spending?
I
Know I'd be pissed if I was Ben Affleck what because Casey Affleck gets to go hanging out with all these cool guys, right?
But nobody likes Casey Affleck. Sure they do nothing don't isn't he like famously of shitty guy?
Casey Affleck. Sure they do.
Nothing don't.
Isn't he like famously a shitty guy?
Is he?

He beat his wife up or something.
He was a bad dude or like abusive on set or some shit.
I don't know.
Not good.
Casey, get it together.
Well, either way, he got to hang out with all the, the whole cast.
