     Humanoid robots that Elon Musk is building like they're actually like they look like exactly from what like I robot
     Look Will Smith or whatever it was like they look exactly like that. Why?
     That's my question to do why the task and jobs that people don't really want to do
     Instagram is ditching swipe ups in favor of stick
     What does that mean another bit of the headscratching news from a brand?
     Mountain Dew introducing flaming hot mountain Dew drink. That's his hottest crossover. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's not what dude
     The people that eat the flamin hot are probably drinking Mountain Dew at the same time so that you know, I mean get it all at once
     Yeah, skip the middle man
     You're listening to the radcast if it's radical we cover it
     Here's your host Ryan offered
     Hey guys, what's up? Welcome to the latest edition of the
     Rad
     Radcast Wow, hey, I'm excited to leave gentlemen August 27th Friday. I'm joined by Joey Joey Cheon. What's up brothers? What's going on in the flesh in the flesh all three of us all three
     Now John decided to come back. I like it. Yeah, yeah, Joey tried to bail to then it's like on a medical hiatus a
     Personally imposed medical hiatus
     Went pretty well without you guys last week, so
     Maybe the best one somebody said right the best one that they did say that they said it was it said it was like addition by subtraction sure
     Okay, sure something I don't know something like that. Yeah, it was my mom, but
     Yeah, so she's very smart. Yeah, yeah, so I
     Still getting ever my my cook break up, but I think I laughed for like three days over that I've re-listened every episode
     Admittedly and I I laughed again. I was thought I was too falsely to it
     So it's like a little by on a loop your own voice
     It's a 15 second clip that just plays over and over again
     It's the same thing as like creating a video, but you guys create videos all the time
     Do you watch back your videos to make sure that you did it right? I feel like you're being a little defensive
     Yes, we got to improve our craft around here, you know, some of us aren't natural actors, you know
     Yes, I do know
     Very good
     We've had a good week at Radical. Yeah, it's busy. He's the red cast news and
     If anything I had seven meetings yesterday on my calendar. That's a fun fun day seven more than I had
     And but yeah, the red cast is great. Anybody listen to coffee Anderson?
     Awesome episode. I got excited just listening to it again in my rehash and
     He was energetic. Let's say that, but he was awesome and
     We've got a little different podcasts coming next week, you know
     We've been, you know doing something down the entertainment people talking to people's journeys and their business and all that but
     Nielsen the company does TV ratings. We had two other people on Kara and Imran
     And talked about the realities of branding in 2021 and how
     marketing spend is
     Gone all towards sales driven activity and not branding activity and it's actually causing some real issues because everybody's focused on ROI
     Like day one. So this will be a more educational podcast for sure
     What like what's an example of the salesperson?
     So I'm running
     Facebook ads with a I'm gonna get real like
     To the to the micro level. I run a Facebook ad. I'm I'm a t-shirt e-commerce brand and
     I'm not extremely well known yet
     And I run t-shirt ads that are 1599 for a surfer dude t-shirt
     So that's that's low funnel like performance marketing type activation
     Whereas branding would be a
     Video about the story of the company
     An influencer that's backing it because they give 15% of their profits charity and a thematic story
     Or a the CEO going on a podcast to talk about why he started the company
     Those are brand marketing activities. Okay, and what's happened in the marketplace is because everybody's so ROI focused
     And they're not playing the long game
     They're running way too much performance marketing in absence of awareness building marketing
     Because what's happened is you have a purchase phone
     You know most things unless it's just something a convenience toilet paper or something like
     You need to be aware of the brand
     But to then gain intent to buy the brand to then ultimately purchase it
     There's a there's a cycle for that or a funnel and what's happened is everyone's trying to push them down to the bottom
     Which is purchase is fast as possible when they've done nothing to really
     Raise attention awareness familiarity at the top of the funnel
     And that's just the way marketing works. It's still the same people aren't aware of you. They don't buy you
     You know you go you know if you walk into a store and if you had
     Joe below t-shirt on the left and a Nike t-shirt on the right
     You know you know why you want to buy that Nike t-shirt
     Because they've built brand for 50 years
     And you know them you're familiar with them. They've told stories you like Michael Jordan growing up
     You like Kobe Bryant whatever that might have been
     uh
     They've been branding forever and that's familiarity and what's happened is people are trying to short cut that by just
     focusing on promotional
     Speeds and feeds the benefits of what they do
     Instead of the story of what they do or why or influence like so
     You're just seeing a lot of movement towards that and they just come Neilson just did a big study on it about the negative impact
     That coming from that. It's like like
     Like using coupons sort of almost would that be kind of a
     That would be an absolute coupons exactly. Yes, and then you people say I don't have a coupon
     I'm not going to go there and Berkman you've actually
     Drilled into exactly the issue especially with e-commerce. I'm quite smart everyone everyone starts with giving away 15%
     And they their margins are really small when they do that and then they
     But that drives business and so their business stays forever driven by that
     So I just who banks practically gone out of business like Jose bank four suits for a hundred dollars right
     You'll never buy a three hundred dollar suit at Jose banks because they've eroded the value of the of the brand right
     From day one
     So that's the like epitome of it, you know sure, but it's also the problem though is
     The only way for true growth for mass marketing or mass brands is broader awareness
     You have to pay you know like it's like well in those shit
     But like a lot of people are trying to circumvent that by just going straight at like what they sell
     You know versus
     Creating and resonating with people and it's not just about being emotional some people don't care about what the brand does or whatever
     But you still have to be in the mindset because mindset's fleeting because we see 10,000 ad messages a day
     What I remember growing up
     I grew up in the surf industry and as kids
     These these companies became successful literally based off of stickers like they would give all the kid stickers
     And have them go put them up on signs and it built as we got older we grew with the brand
     Familiar. Yeah, so brands like Volkham became massive
     But when I was a kid, they were the small company and but they literally built up like this gorilla army behind it
     And as it you know, we got older then we started buying all the product and there was a
     Familiarity with it exactly is a surf industry in New Jersey. Yeah, you said you grew up in it
     Yeah, is that a
     Is there a joke?
     Am I supposed to laugh now?
     Nice
     Payton bro. Yeah, I know so uh yesterday was
     National dog day. You may have dogs. I have a dog
     All right. No, yes. I really like dogs. I really really like dogs. I do. It's like we're they walk around
     I'm the first guy that's paying the dog. We have new animals, you know
     It's not practical to me like we live in a loft building and
     80% in the in the loft we're at have dogs
     A lot of them single guys and girls
     And I'm like why the hell if you're single and 28 years old?
     Do you bog yourself down with a fucking dog like that you can't you want to go like you're francy free
     You can go on weekends you can go wherever you want and you got to deal with the damn dog and plus you got to like take it outside to shit
     Like in a loft right?
     Yeah, I pass people I pass single pee. I mean, I'm father of four. I pass single dudes and girls every day
     That are like take their dog out picking up dog shit and I'm like you are you feeling that some people's pickup line
     So I feel like yeah, that's their conversation start. I think dog feces. Yeah, yeah, a lot of people are just lonely
     I say this is company. Yeah, like coming home to something. Yeah, I've got seven dogs
     Okay
     I live in a studio sure an actual studio. Yeah, we share the bed. I feel like everybody's used to written stuff out now like or
     Doing like Uber whatever so people that are dog walkers that maybe like their version of running a dog for money
     You know what I mean? I don't like it weird roundabout way
     Yeah, it is a good pickup like hey if you're single guy you should be a dog walker
     Sure, you don't want to have the dog because you want to be free to go all the weekends with the girls
     Right, but you'd be a dog walker and you're like yeah, I got phyto today and they don't know that it's not a dog
     Yeah, it can't be a little bit of a pain like when we go go somewhere we have to have somebody there come state our house or
     We go to the lake in the summer every weekend just about and I'm like if I had to deal
     But what now what's happened is everyone takes their dog everywhere. I was gonna say you could take your dog to the lake
     And we're out on an island or something like that. There's four freaking dogs and I'm like, you know, I like dogs
     I really do we believe but
     I don't I just don't it's like they're jumping all over things
     I'm like I didn't come out here to deal with your dog
     I think I think about that like when I go to the coffee shop and there's dogs in the coffee shop
     Like what happens if I'm terrified of dogs like what happens if I had a childhood experience where I got attacked by a dog
     And I have to walk into a coffee shop full of dogs. Yeah, very specific, you know, yeah, very specific
     Are you again? Are you okay? I mean, I don't want to talk about it. Okay. Yeah, which brought it. Yeah
     You know, I just don't know the boundaries of like why does why is your dog
     When it becomes my problem. It's really only the lake that this is happening like around the building. I just kind of go
     Yeah, why are you doing that? But don't really care none of my business, but uh
     My favorite is like when the dogs start barking loudly and they're like they keep saying the dogs name and you never know normally does this
     Yeah, yes, you know you were here every time I pass them. We did have this hyperaggressive dog in our own ice and like literally
     I got on the in the elevator and the dogs in there and he is like he's ready to eat my head off
     Yeah, and I told the guy that
     He's has a lawsuit coming because if that dog bites one of it's one thing. I'm in a punch him in the face
     But if he bites my kid
     You you probably aren't worth much, but I will take every penny and like and punch him in the end
     Yeah, like double, but he was like hyperaggressive like I'm telling you like you see that
     Like he's like ready to eat my arm and I'm gonna die and he's just walking around the building and he kept finally
     I either got the hint or he got complain on and he's not around anymore. It's like
     I don't know. Yeah, I don't take my dog anywhere on purpose because I know a he's gonna piss all over everything
     Like if I took that dog to Petsmart
     Dude, he would piss on everything you walk by everything and B
     He's not that nice. So I don't take him I take him on walks solo
     I'm sure we get some hate mail because everybody thinks now. I don't like dog. We love dogs. Let's be clear
     We love dogs. There was one I wish there was one in here that just came and went went home and took care of himself
     But sure, I don't want to take care of him. Yeah, you know, and I know the people love their dogs because they're lonely
     No lonely. I'm going out of town this weekend. Could you could you wash my dog actually? Oh, yeah, you know what?
     That'll be great. I do like you guys know Hardy
     The country music singer hard. Yes. I do. Yeah, I know hardy. He has a
     Funny song. It's like, you know, we grew up with our dog stay outside like
     Yeah, it's like we're growing. It's some line like that. It's like point is
     Yeah, meant to be outside. Yeah, and most of them aren't anymore. Yeah, it's a little bit of a bitch also
     So he's he needs to stay inside a small dog. I kind of get it. It's just like these big, you know, a hundred pound
     Labs. Yeah, they're like
     studios
     Anyway, enough talk about national dog day happy national dog day with the dogs out
     Nice
     Yep
     Yes, all right in the lease shocking or this there's two in the lease shocking categories and the news today, but
     only fans
     Made a decision of what 10 days ago ish. Yeah to remove pornography
     Uh
     Six days four hours
     The application into McDonald's
     Congratulations, they removed pornography are decided to remove it
     I don't know if it ever came down having not being a regular on only fans right happily married. Thank you, but
     They've they've reversed that decision. Yeah to ban the explicit content actually wanted to stay in business
     Yeah, like the only place I got revenue from yeah, yeah
     Once they saw how many people were leaving
     Yeah, I'm just glad several members of my extended family can eat again. So yeah
     Like because of pornography yes to be clear
     Is it just kind of like I don't know uh
     McDonald's like shutting down every store for a week
     And then and hoping that it doesn't hurt their business and restarting like is it like the most yeah like it'll
     Thought through decision, but is there like a an upside of marketing when someone does something like that
     Like only fans was now
     It was everywhere
     Do you think they paid it for
     What do you think they actually wanted to I usually subscribe to the uh, you know
     All news is good news for the most part like what you're saying like you know potentially, but I don't think so because
     You
     Not when you pissed off your poor user base
     Pornographers Pornographers
     You're the professionals that they are and then they potentially leave and they're probably not gonna come like
     They're probably like we'll screw it. I'm not going back because they might do this again
     Right, they might change their mind again. So I don't I don't what are they gonna get it?
     Maybe if we should start our own
     Yes, yes, I mean, oh like only fans
     But for pornography
     Okay, you know
     Patreon sure. Yeah, patreon pay for it
     Paid I'm trying to think of a pond, but I'm just lost. Yeah, Porn tree on Porn tree on
     Porn tree on that's okay. Okay
     Anyway, so yeah, if you're into that thing uh, too gross only only fans is back. Yeah. Yeah, yeah hashtag back
     There's definitely a joke. Yeah, we're not gonna go there. No, uh, so
     You guys see this so we could go Elon Musk and the the scariest news of the week
     This was actually last week it kind of came out but only we talked about it
     But humanoid robots the Elon Musk is building like they're actually like they look like exactly from what like
     I robot with Will Smith or whatever it was like they look exactly like that why
     That's my question to do why the task and jobs that people don't really want to do
     Is what he said and thus and and he happened to mention in the same uh story
     That there should be universal pay because he recognized this he recognizes so it instantly peed
     We're already kind of starting to pay people to stay home like yeah kind of what we've done during the pandemic
     And I think he's all but saying there's a lot of jobs to do the people don't want let's create robots to do them
     And then people really will stay home because we're gonna kill
     500 million jobs or
     A million but 500,000 jobs and we know that's gonna create an issue. So let's have universal pay
     Did he give example of the jobs like yeah digging or yeah, I mean it was stuff like
     I forget like some of it was like sanitation so like it was
     Stuff that you would go. Yeah, nobody really wants to do that right
     How real do these
     Humanoids look
     Bill Gates is already one they're pretty real
     He's actually one himself. He's been working on himself. That's why Sean's so interested. He played Elon Musk in a video quite well
     I thank you you did very well as Bill Gates. Yeah
     That was funny though. So what if he was inspired by the Will Smith movie?
     He might have been he looks like they they look like like white
     They look have you seen our robot like the yes, yeah, they look like almost exactly like those robots
     That's terrifying. And it's like if you've seen the movie, why would you ever want to like and he's talked about it never ends up well
     No, it never ends up well like let's empower the robots they get smart enough and they go
     They realize that humans are not very intelligent at all that we make a lot of irrational decisions and then they turn on us
     Yeah, they're smarter than us are stronger than us. Elon Musk is even about instead. He fears
     The power of AI and here he is building a freaking humanoid robot. Yeah, remember when he was on the Joe Rogan podcast
     He also talked about planting chips and people's brains to make them smarter. Yes
     I do he's doing that to himself that that could be done possibly by I think he did it
     I think he maybe he did it inside gone the other direction now. He's making robots. It's made him not as smart. Yeah
     Yeah, literally in every movie book TV show that they someone creates robots
     They become like sentient and yeah, and kill people. Yeah, there's literally like a sense in about that right like everything everything called terminator
     He was a good guy though. He became he was bad the first one. Yeah, he was bad
     They sent him the first one to kill Sarah Connor
     But that's just like the plot of every sentient thing right. Yeah, just topia. We really learned a lot from it
     He was like racing towards it now. Yeah, I mean maybe it's just back to that brand play awareness
     similarity and now everyone was to create a killer robot
     We've got a we got a plague and sentient robots. It's it's like a mashup. Yeah walking dead and
     Maybe it's kind of like the ice cream machines. Yeah, he's gonna make the robots because they make him killer
     And he's the only one that's got the
     Yeah, they're gonna turn on him though. He's gonna make every person pay to turn the robot. Yeah
     I mean think about he also wants to start travel to Mars right
     He wants to start life on other planets. This will be a preempting us
     What are the odds that he's just a whack job completely? No, no, of course not pretty high
     700 percent. Yeah. Yeah, but also very wealthy. Sure. Yeah, he's like the all-er
     Take give give and take right speaking of wealthy kind of like you right. Thank you
     You got to be a little crazy. Didn't do anything crazy. It's fair enough. The uh in quote
     Ha
     NFTs yes heard these non-fungible tokens. Yeah
     Speaking of being wealthy uh a jpeg of a rock sold for a million bucks
     Six not the rock a rock not I rack and a digital
     Rock a little rock sold for like a million bucks. Yeah, I don't I don't get it. I don't get it either
     Like I watch my kids play I understand the metaverse
     I get that values being placed on digital things and skins
     I don't understand the the rock for a million bucks. Well, that's because you guys don't get art
     So yeah, yeah, but do you think this is like like you know
     I lost a million dollars guys is what I'm trying to tell you right now. I can't find the NFT
     You know how you know how the art world is like a great way to hide money
     Yeah, like that's why jacks you think this is just another way for people to
     Launder money laundromoney, but I just want to hide my money on something. I know it's gonna be worth something
     and yeah, and while a Picasso
     Makes sense to me, but uh digital rock
     Not some digital things maybe yeah, like that. There was like a an art piece that was done digitally that I
     Solve the beauty in and was like, uh, okay. I don't I wouldn't pay half a million dollars
     But like I see that it's unique. So then what do you do like you're looking up on your phone whenever you want to see it?
     Yeah, you own the code to it
     So, but what do you yeah, that's a good point. What do you do? I just take a screen cap throw it and just look at it
     Time to time my rock
     I've got a million dollars. I'll see you for a dollar. Yeah
     Screen cap
     I guess you could have one of those like you could just have a big like monitor and you're and project it on your wall
     Interesting, but it's just still just a rock
     Yeah, it is
     I've been a stick to my
     Tangeable goods. Yeah, notice the stock market and uh and and uh bitcoins. Yeah
     This sure a sure thing super tangible. Yeah standing up
     Uh, so Kanye West uh in draker and a little bit of a feud a
     Kanye leaked
     Drake's home address, which
     I struck me as okay, he got him, but then I was like
     Get you not really find out where Drake's address. Yeah, the problem is it knowing where he's lives
     It's like you're never going to get in. Yeah, he's got a gate. Yeah, gate and seven security guards
     Like he asked one of the guys on the Hollywood bus tours where Drake lives and he's
     That's it. Put it on our map. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because he has four hundred million followers
     Like that's why it mattered. I don't know. Yeah, did anyone go to Drake's house. That's the question. Kim did
     There's a low key beef about that. That's what none serious. That's it. There's speculation about uh-oh
     Been a while
     Yeah, exactly
     So yeah, that's a great question like he's got it. He lives in Canada probably right
     Drake he was having homes as he had like his home address. Drake probably has five. Yeah
     Which one?
     Probably pretty easy. That's his third guest house. I'm not a big deal
     Probably lives in a gated community where you can't get in
     Right, no matter what right with probably gun turrets as well. That's how this is kind of like patty caking to me
     Yeah, I'm gonna you know a little bitch fight like okay
     Here's home address. I'm gonna go go earth tonight and find it dude
     Yeah, you want to go? Yeah, yeah, just don't call him Kanye. It's yay again
     officially. Yeah
     Yeah, yeah, you know, yeah, and look I like Kanye West music
     I kind of dig his whole vibe other than being a little crazy
     The name change thing don't get it, but whatever you want to call yourself find with me
     But it's like just pick one and stick with it. Yeah, no p-ditty was once puff daddy too
     Right, so sometimes you have to change at the times. Yeah, puff puff give
     Sean puffy comes yep
     Yeah, that's it's the name change thing is it's been done, right? Yeah, but he's been gone to it back. Yeah
     Like nobody cares. I think well, we're talking about it now. Yeah, we are he's on the red cast news
     But must be important that's well
     That's it doesn't get on here if it's not that's true. That is the uh and in our second and final intro
     You're like that's right anyway
     We're gonna leave that one there the uh world's faster for rollercoaster being built in Japan and uh, yeah
     Zero to 100 and less than two seconds, but they've shut down
     The secondly shocking news of the week because they were breaking bones of people writing on it. No shit
     Yeah
     Zero to 100 and less than two seconds. Who would think throwing a human body from zero to 102 seconds would be a bad job
     As well, not just it's not straight line. I got a crash test dummy. Yeah, it's in Japan. You said yeah, it's population controls what it is
     Yeah, Darwinism that is fine. It's okay. It's probably easier ways to kill more people

     But you know, I think a lot was like you was saying we kept talking about stuff that yeah, we're talking about it
     So you know, that's if if it hits the radcast
     Must be news and if it doesn't play changing fuck out
     So on the first news article of the week
     Instagram is ditching swipe-ups in favor of stick
     What does that mean? Okay, you know the story you see or but you yeah, we did a swipe-up
     So it's just changing the swipe-up instead of you never long will be able to swipe up
     To go to a website you'll push a sticker, but okay, so that you can design a sticker different things like they're stickers now
     Yeah, they'll be touchable. Okay, we worked very hard to be able to get the swipe-up. Yeah, should we should we want the civilians
     No, it's it's 10,000 followers to be able to swipe up. Yeah, it is and it's that that that is gonna remain with the stickers
     Okay, so we would be eligible for stickers. You'd still be eligible for now
     Right, I was gonna say I was gonna walk away from this whole thing
     Yeah, and rag with the radcast are just life life. Wow. Yeah, Arch
     Yeah, wow, that was close. Yeah, so August 31st. So just be ready. You know, you got to do stickers in that swipe-up. Okay
     Got about a week
     We can annoy people in a new way now. Sure. Yeah
     Yeah tap the button. Yeah tap it like it's hot. Why's it got to be a sticker? Why isn't it just a button?
     Sticker sounds fun. Does it? That's what Instagram calls them stickers little kids kind of yeah, tap the sticker
     Sticker I'm hoping that I can use my custom verified Ryan offer gifs
     As the sticker to push to go to links. There you go. I'll be really happy if they can do that
     I know that's capable until they launch it, but we'll see
     It sounds reasonable. It sounds. Yeah. Yes. I have nine million impressions on my gif
     You do yes, wow in the less than a year
     Very nice. It's called a brand play my friends
     Can you sell those? Oh, yeah, we create them
     Really? Yeah, yeah
     So you can create that and then what do you sell it? Do you sell it to like a company that then well
     We can sell them because we could create them for companies and get them license to
     Be a gif or a gif or
     gif
     Like I
     I heard a couple years ago Van Dam made like four million dollars in one year just off of his gift
     Rob Van Dam
     There that's not what the Instagram gifts are. You're not making money when people use them
     Okay, it's more just an awareness thing. Okay
     Like because like you do keywords like I'm like if you do radical
     You search for radical and the gifts like my a couple of mine are trending on the first page
     So it's a brand play. Yeah, but you're not making money just put the gif on Instagram
     How how would you make money? There's there's websites that like I think there's pay or paywalls or different things for using them
     You're trying to figure it out so you can do it. Yeah, we're doing gifs, dude
     Okay, I'm starting a gifs only only fans. Yes, they see like each one of your characters you create you guys could create
     Gifs those that people use them like doing gestures and things like that like
     Yeah
     Few jacks we're making gifts. Okay. Yeah
     You're in charge
     Uh
     We'll talk about it. All right. For $9.99. I'll teach you how to do it. Okay. Um
     All right, so in the uh
     Another bit of the head scratching news from a brand
     Mountain Dew introducing flaming hot mountain Dew drink
     It's Pepsi's hottest crossover yet. Yeah. Yeah, yeah
     What do the people that eat the flaming hot
     Are probably drinking Mountain Dew at the same time so that you know, I mean get it all at once. Yeah, let's get the middleman
     There you go. Hey, I just
     Fine, I mean, but just because you can does I mean you always should sure and uh, I like some hot stuff
     I like flaming hot stuff, but I don't want to drink nope
     No
     Like really hits the back. I feel like everyone might like everyone out of curiosity might
     Haste it, but no one's gonna repeatedly buy it. Let's I mean should you bring some into the radcast next week?
     Yeah, like that delicious Mike's hard lemonade we had last week
     Okay, so good. We're never gonna work with mics. Yeah, it's probably they're never ever gonna hire us because it that and I'm
     I'm attributing it to being the harder version, but it could have been it. Yeah, but it was no bueno. Nope
     Did not just like potentially rubbing alcohol with the like a hint of lemon. It's okay. Sure
     I gave him out. I thought I was being really nice and we're it's national lemonade
     We think it's like
     I can feel my own face and I was drinking it like I was like that is like puckering up combined with completely put off. Yeah
     I felt not good after that
     We had a race in a sink to see if it could pour there's out first. Yeah, Josh chugged his was weird
     Yeah
     Yeah, he's in the hospital. Yeah, that's unfortunate
     Mike's harder lemonade call us mics. Yeah, call us. Yeah, we could make it not look at we could put a lipstick on the pig though. Sure
     Good at that. They pay me enough. I'll drink it instead of water. Yeah
     Only mics
     Only mics
     That could be their new media channel only mics only mics
     That's yeah, they need to do something that formula was not good. Not good. This is the harder formula
     I'm I'm gonna talk it up to the the base form is probably okay the regular is probably the harder not so good kind of like a like a like a ice
     What's it was remember the mickle about what's the ice beer that was just
     No, no ice house
     Oh
     I love beer more than anybody, but ice house just like we'll remember remember for loco. Oh, yeah for loco people were dying
     Oh, yeah, caffeine and yeah, who knows what else good in that thing large amounts of people were dying in college from it
     Yeah, that's our that's our their tag like yeah large amounts people yeah for loco who are the test subjects before we release this
     They obviously didn't do any yeah
     Yeah
     This is fine. Let's put it out there. I just do a pre-workout and gray goose now hits the same. Yeah
     Great. Yeah, you're made you've made your heart problems. I do now. Yeah
     So let us know in the comments. This is definitely gonna make a highlight clip
     I know it is mountain-do flaming hot yay rat or fad. I'm calling you
     Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're nay. Yeah, no, no
     Okay
     So it would be fun. It would be better if it was flaming hot if it was temperature hot
     Like they keep it in like a like a outer sham oven and you get one out and it's like oh shit
     It's like but it's mountain-do. Yeah, I like that idea better like hot tea. Yeah, but it's mountain-do
     Maybe a pop like a hot popsicle like that's cold. I don't know. Okay. Uh, that doesn't really
     John
     I'm just trying to think of something that would make it better than a brain like a popsicle would be better
     I guess better. Yeah, cuz it's a food stuff. The next article shares of alka seltzer of 47%
     Facebook is really you guys use Facebook messenger
     Uh, yeah, well here and there. Yeah, they've been really toying with the messaging app and they've added a call button
     It's like you Facebook tries to jam every fucking feature
     It's like, you know, like oh, we really capturing everything. Do they just people want to call from the messenger app?
     Like you know what else has a call button?
     Can you call internationally on this if it's on wife? Maybe I mean, I think they're trying to be with what that
     Yeah, cuz that's
     They own what's that
     But uh, yeah
     Cuz what's app is frustrating because you can't call anyone if they're not your friend
     Like if you're international you can't you can't call like a random number. You're trying to call about the record. I'm trying to call a drag dude
     I know a drag way. There's some trying to call this phone number stop. I go to Facebook page
     I found it
     So yeah, oh, uh, if you're on a messaging app you you already pretty much have made the point that you don't want to call them
     Yeah
     Point taken. I don't want to cut, but how many times you accidentally hit that button? You're like oh shit
     Did you just try to video chat me? Yeah, I do that sometimes like I'm trying to mess it someone and I call them
     Like this is the last person I wanted to have a conversation with right, but you call me it's usually you yesterday
     It's like in in in did it ring did it ring on there and I hope it didn't ring on there
     And cuz I don't want to call you back right back. I don't know
     Even want to be called on an actual phone that most of time you know, right? I'm just like most people are annoyed by calls
     Yeah, you know, I called you also that's
     Weird as well straight to voicemail. Yeah, or even when it rings twice in your straight to voicemail
     Yeah, they sent you to voicemail. Yeah, yeah, the fuck you button
     Like when someone someone's calling you that you don't want to talk to you like don't want to touch the phone
     You're like I don't want to accidentally like pick that up somehow or send a voicemail
     Or I love when you call someone and they text you back like hey, did you mean to call yeah
     Like well, now I know you don't want to talk to me. Yeah, no, no
     But now
     The etiquette of messaging and calling in 2021 or non etiquette Facebook Messenger, but I'll somebody
     Look how far we've come so we talked last week about
     Apple and
     Spying on your photos to make sure you weren't beating any kids
     Which is obviously a serious subject. I don't want to make like that, but more of this privacy issue, but
     The watchdog some company that like checks into these things has said without a doubt
     They are bypassing their own security system to do this and thus creating a hole
     With which the bad things could come through
     You know the whole point of these layers of security or so they can't be patched or whatever and right
     This is Apple's creating a significant security issue with what they're doing to themselves to themselves, but then to us
     But you can call people with Facebook Messenger now, so don't even worry about it
     So we got four new features. Yeah, don't worry about it. So run some more ads
     What's the reason for them checking people's photos? They're uh, they're scanning
     The code supposedly you know bob in the back's not like looking at your photos, but supposedly they're looking at the code of your photos
     To look for
     Metadata and other things that match with pornography online like child pornography
     So again
     The road to hell's paved with good intentions. Yeah, to me that just sounds I understand that but it sounds like an excuse to be able to just
     track people
     Okay, thank you. That's it for me today. Yeah, so uh, I feel like it's probably already been happening all along though
     Yeah, definitely they're just covering it up with like we're doing it for child pornography
     You know, we run a lot of digital ads. We do a lot of that stuff
     We're retargeting follow you know, you looked at a pair of shoes. It follows you around the internet
     Yeah, you know, it's but it's relevant. You looked at it. We're trying to help you make a decision and force feed it
     You're a nice guy nice
     We do some pretty crazy stuff in digital hard, but I get asked at least once a week
     I swear my phone's listening to me. I was talking about something
     I've never looked for I've never searched for it and I felt it was in my feed an hour later and I was just talking about it
     Yeah
     So everyone thinks that that's going on and I can tell you firsthand in a mainstream way
     It's not but what's happened is behavioral target what's going on so that
     It might seem freaky, but you've you've visited some cider done something that's triggered that ad content
     It might be very similar to what you talked about
     but
     It's yeah, I thought it was just God sending me messages
     You always say that every
     You said about every shoe is Sean
     Yeah, you had remember you had stomach issues. You're like, yeah, it's God telling me
     It was just a it was mountain new flaming hot
     The Radcast brought you by mountain dew flaming. Yes, we've promoted it. Yeah. Oh, yeah
     Flaming hot
     Flaming hot radcast you think we get a flavor for the radcast like we start flavoring everything
     Flaming hot
     It's flavor branding it. Yeah, if you're already already cornered that market. So docky sauce
     True, he just had the branding with planes and all that. Yeah, yeah, I like guy. I don't know

     The flippers was flipping house flipping. Yeah, we're funny
     Um, we just filmed another uh up and coming sketch part two part two
     And uh, yeah, that'll be coming out next few weeks. Yeah, I'm normally skeptical about sequels
     For obvious reasons, but I felt like there was enough stuff to
     Go after it again. Yeah, yeah, it's weird too because we've been playing like these similar characters
     But I feel like if they're not in the certain up and coming context even it's like
     It's funny, but it's not relevant people's minds, you know what I mean? Yeah
     Some sequels we've done have been wildly popular
     It is in the past
     No, for sure, but we already take it takes off a little bit. Yes, that and Chad
     Dad and Chad milk herons pretty popular. Yeah, all those got better times
