Hello, I look in the first cast, the flagship podcast of south by southwest.

i'm your who's very happy to be in texas.

Yeah, what this is from texas.

it's true. That's why we're my little cowboy boots today.

Where's your hat?

It's up in forward.

Where's your pickup truck?

I also in forward. Sorry.

very good. David pierce here. I have no problem.

Has I work out? We had one time, and literally a stranger told me I look stupid in IT. That's a true story.

I think you cute was.

they were like, trying to be nice, but I was very much. I like, honey, like, that's not for you. Take IT out of and I just, that was the end of my cab.

Y hax, yes. Were you wearing IT and cab? I had appropriate situation ever. Were you like at the .

bank I was in? All my boy had appropriate.

but depends where the bank is.

Yeah, that's new york. No, no, Austin.

kind of for worth, definitely. You can see the texas is coming out learning things here.

This is big.

So here's we going to do for this liver chest that we are listening to this in a car. We have an audience here. Southwest, southwest. Next, noise audience. Very good and very excited for this ridiculous chemic. The David has to come up with it's David plan what we're going to do and where we're going to play this game the day is going to the and have some questions .

but explain the game OK. So about a year ago, and we were trying to figure out how talk about the streaming world and like who's up, who's down, who's winning, who's losing. So we did this draft and we all basically picked a bunch of streaming services that are like hours for the year.

And then everything changed like immediately between recording that epo de and putting out that epo de, the whole streaming world changed. So going to do again, we're going to go back. I've made IT more complicated and it's going to be much more work for everybody. And on the only one who can see everything.

So i'm going to win for sure that yeah he's cheating.

but we need help from all of you a few times throughout this first telling us who is going to pick first. I'm going to explain the rules of the left at the second, but the first thing we need to do is i'm going to recap last year and then you all are going to decide who won last year's draft and thus gets to a first that's i'm good. Okay ool. So last year, me I tail ended up with each other with five things, knew I had tiktok, the disney bundle, youtube TV with sunday ticket. I don't .

know why give you both of this is good .

apple music and his friend visions plex server k .

to I didn't .

pick alex is weird plexo.

it's way Better. Alex trans picked HBO max, want want paramount plus slash show channels, the APP for watching the rules. Someone's good criterion .

is still likes this apple one.

still.

I don't know how you got away with that one because .

you got disney bundle.

So you picked the bundle that includes I cloud.

no IT was basically music and apple TV plus that was the and then alex got a bonus pick because he spent the least money and he picked x box gaming, which was a choice.

I was a very entertaining pic, like everything I, I, I call those again in twenty twenty three.

I don't recommend that my pix were youtube premium p cock, netflix discovery plus want want and who love with live TV. So I want I know I just said a lot of things all in a row who thinks knew I won the draft.

Obviously nothing. Get something in your family because I talk to you.

A who thinks ex want to raft?

Yes, come on here.

yes. Are you saw that? I've brought ringers? Oh my god, he's day was .

definite who things .

David on the draft. Kd, drama clapped for me, so I wanted to raft. Okay, so the rules of this draft, alex, you're going to go to the first because I think you actually want the draft.

You I, you like him, and last is, well, now that's the most important part. Nei lost is a little so for this year, the new addition to the draft is we have categories and you can't just pick anything. You have to fill the categories with draft.

And we have six categories. Like I said, this can be very complicated. You both have this on your funds. You can check IT as you like to have my phone out.

The categories are cheap, which means that has to have a tear that costs under ten bux awards, which means the streaming service has to have won an Oscar. An Oscar, not something else. An Oscar.

There's four k, which is pretty explain. Sure, IT has to have self. And four k which rules out a surprising number. But we can talk about that live, which means that has to have some life. Self niche, which means that has to be something very specific .

and we can mitigate category.

And then there's a wild art, which is anything you want. yes. So we're not going in your order, but they are going to be six rounds of the draft.

And IT is your job to fill out all six categories over the course of the draft and good or resod? Yeah right. Alex, chance, you're first. You have to pick a service .

and a category OK. I'm going to go fork from my first one and i'm going to choose netflix. Okay, because i've gotten really into k dramas and we've got a lot on there and also other its network.

So here's why I proposed wild card addition to the draft. So good. Every time anyone says a streaming service, we have to rank how close to death the streaming services on the go I D scale of due street because this turns out several .

of them last year were very close.

very close yeah. So if you are in our audience, you don't know to go ninety scale of dream streaming services. Verizon, which is a cell phone Carrier, launched important fact along this road, launched a competitor, youtube cop go ID.

This is ages ago, uh, the competitor featured the ability to turn your phone sideways to watch videos. And I escape, which for ison, tried to brand going ninety. This is a real thing that happened from one of our nation's largest companies.

They also had features in IT called like john a crew, because they have thought the youth would like gang related terminology in their video apps. All real, i'm not making this up quickly. Failed like I can even tell you how fast to fail.

There were nine yeah, a much like qube. Another service that was predicted on turning your phone to watch video and landscape. So we have to go ninety scale during streaming services.

So zero is alive, ninety is dead. So alex, where is netflix and a go ninety scale of street? okay. I want to be really honest.

I mainly picked IT, so neither of you could pick IT because I .

had a lot of games and ship in this.

Yeah it's all about beating them and feeling good about myself. So I actually think it's like a forty because forty because I think they have a lot of programing problems and they need to improve IT. Like I like the kay dramas, but I don't know if everyone else likes wait.

But else I would remind you that the scale is not like the the sucking, the scale of its program, but the scale of does .

IT exist in a year? yeah. Okay.

say in a year.

is IT like how close .

to death in this room?

I still think like forty, I kind of want to say forty out there, like I think netflix s has some issues. I feel this .

moment in time, it's appropriate to do our scousers. I produce an ethnic show very good. So about the future of you should watch IT.

Our company has a significant investment from nbc universal ages on by ah they don't like us very much at all. Our coverage of conchas. Uh we make other television shows for other services at our company, and I personally watch television.

Yes.

quite of this.

alex, as you would only illegally, so it's fine. Yeah yes, you don't have disclosed that.

Yeah, we'll have apple products. It's very important disclosure.

right? I'll let you go next because i'm feeling magnanimities today.

What's your first verse? Serpentine order? Yeah, i'm starting starting where I started last year.

Tiktok, which category a cheap, famous Oscar winning tiktok .

is notably cheap k is funded entirely by subsides from the chinese government and extremely crap garbage that is sold on the technical.

You did see the ban bill that was passed.

yeah. Take currently in the last gog is about IT and eighty nine o IT is the most alive thing that has ever been that close to death in the history of the services.

The most alive OK right? sure. IT is the whole go ny scale.

All yeah IT is the full spectrum of going ninety have seen this text. Doctors like turn your phone slowly is the plane flies it's that that thing. Can I this fact about tiktok today, to me very fine.

The some of forces had this reporting. So tiktok had a full screen and killed splash screen onload. That's a collar representative yesterday. And the only things you could do or force quit the APP or call your representative, you had no other choices. If you wanted to engage with tiktok, those are your choices. So capital, who was flooded with calls from angry teens, and there is one quote from one congressional ice, we, our office are flooded with calls from angry teens and boomers who spent all day on the APP really expands the definition of teacher.

I just love a bunch of teens being like, this is the first phone call i've made in my life. Yeah, gives me take time.

I need this. So you would think that this would work. Other apps are famously done this.

Uber famously did this to get preferential treatment. And cities around the world during the uber time. This uteri backfired on tiktok, a congressional republicans. The bill sailed through to basic punish ABS words of the Carrier tiktok. That's how how going to do IT. They're saying this isn't the stuff that congressional republic can say china is bad in the accent in the quote they gave to samford was we're worried the chinese government is programing our teenager's minds. And this is proof because they got all the .

teams to come in from call.

I mean.

it's very good.

The teams did call.

they did. They did programme .

the teams in for some reason.

They're speaking .

Mandarin anyway. Yes.

it's crazy anyway so it's ty night. But take the first off the board.

I feel good about IT. Okay, love. I'm torn. Apple TV won an Oscar is a thing that have yeah so i'm gona take apple TV plus in the awards category for my first pic.

I hate you, but I think there's a decent chance that is going to be the most complicated category as IT turns out. Not a lot of Oscars in those i'm taking out on on the go ninety scale. It's like a six yeah like it's apogee has all the money in the universe and I dq just like hanging out in L. A. And does whatever he wants yeah yeah .

tim cook likes ted lasso yeah .

he's like friends with leana messy. Now that's like, it's great.

I will say that apple keeps claiming that its movies make money, and they definitely don't. Well.

that was great .

because make money just off.

Yeah, great. There is one of those things where they really, like, we spend all this money on a handful of huge movies, killers of our more on a couple of others invested like seven hundred million dollars into a few movies and they are like, but they're super profitable. And there are bunch people who like, you know, we can see the box office state really it's it's just it's just right there and and it's just adding three numbers that don't come anywhere near seven hundred million. But like whatever apple find, apple not worried about apple TV plus making a profit for apple.

I'll say that ever one says it's the best one like people are like I think it's the new HBO in my fundamental belief is like some things are very good and then the things that are very bad are some of us comically bad things anyone has ever spent money on like apple you can open an apple t here now without like you're gona watch article and it's like, no, not like I read the reviews of our goal. I've seen other people react to the concept .

of our goal. I saw aral intherest.

what is I have a child?

Yeah, he was asleep. Was.

did you did you .

pay for a babysitter? No, I the honest, I went the honestly true story.

Oh my god.

my wife isn't is doing grad school again because he collects mater degrees by had nothing to do while he was in class and my child was a sleeve. And so like, i'm going to go to a movie in the literal. Only thing playing at the time that I wanted to see IT was aral.

should I wash you for free and able to b plus this I mean, the hit rate good is .

is a solid consisting like the last twenty five minutes of a plan ride when you land and you're kind of like, oh, I should finish that eventually, then you never do like that.

argue. So, okay, I have this idea. Tell me this is a good, a bit idea.

Better. We review movies we do with the verge, and that's fine. And most movies are reviewed, unlike the tomato meter scale, like five stars.

I have a long thought. We need to build a product that just tells you where to watch a movie, right? That's the actual ranking.

It's like, should you spend money on this and ysp ally, take your body to argue alone while your child is sleeping? No, that he answered right there. Should you wait to pay for IT when you can .

buy IT or rented in in the first window at starbucks?

Yes, that's in one minute.

Clips on tiktok. Yes.

I wouldn't this be like vastly more useful than star ratings if I was just like this movie is good enough to watch on a jet blue flight where you're a little bit hungover. Like that is all we're going. We're going to roll this out.

okay. Now I want to know what is the movie that you've seen the most of exclusively in one minute?

Tiktok lips, money ball OK the tiktok problem is like you are gonna ch money ball .

today is Sally, is that what it's called the one we're silly.

And I think, Sally.

I never learned because I says a hard movie to watch IT one only yeah.

they only want to show me like .

the plane landing. I get you over and over again. Similarly, I get a lot of flight with dense or washington.

This is a very intense movie to watch. The one of one minute. yeah. I'm gonna call mine is real steeled.

by the way, that one refuge jackman with robots perfect. Can I call you just .

my favorite new podcast? Cor, and there's a producer, destination ation, who has a podcast called the irish men. I don't know you ever finish this project, but he was watching all of the irishmen, which is a three and half hour movie in one minute increments, and then making a four minute podcast about .

that every single .

day that's and he calls the mines. And he is like, this men was really hard to watch, like he only watched a min. IT is unclear whether he's going to do killers .

of the flower. Mg.

I want that six months to do that, and I love that. Um okay, are we are we snake drafting? Are we going back to the .

time sink drain snake draft draft?

So I get to go again. I hate. I know this is great news for me. Let's see, i'm going to go to the live category and i'm going to pick an amazon prime video, which is foobar, which is life so good?

Are you doing that with the three ninety nine?

Yeah you do you know .

ads and know ads?

Yeah ads. You know ads and find of ads. okay.

You you're buying for foobar.

not fine when on the fire TV where you turn on your TV and it's like, would you like to watch some ads? No.

thank you. But you're taking up for football.

No, I get IT because of football, but i'm taking IT because, Frankly, of mr.

R. R. Smith backing into the category is one low fc game a week.

That's an fit all Michael gets me this one. This is so i'm happy they got, I know IT, thank you. And I now have the two that are never gona die because they are funded by billionaires who don't care. It's perfect there. K, there's only one more of those left on this list will come back to that.

It's come here. wait. How does the serpent tine does this mean?

That means they lize up. I hate this. And then you get two. okay?

Do you get ever in a in a row? no. You get none in a row. yes. So you really.

do we actually deliberate? Did this this group .

like o then is all great.

But don't tell him.

We said, i'm still gona in this. I'm going to do with my next pic. Okay, which is the disney bundle, which is .

unBeatable way. What is the disney bundle? That disney and e sp n anhui yeah and in india.

hot star the cricket stands out there.

Yeah do we allow bundles? I feel like bungles shouldn't be allowed.

It's hard to buy .

disc without Bobbye er coming your house to me. You're going to get hou take .

IT that's actually sort of true IT is genuinely easier to get .

the button also who is integrated into the disney itself APP or families? It's like here's the hands .

made ill .

ah what are you taking IT for? You taking for live or are .

you taking yeah .

cater we're taking IT for bluish dead ahead.

That's not a catered.

I like .

insane home theater and talk about this blue or blue. I like what is watched in this thing is blue. It's very good. All right. yeah. Still can I? Max rolls up to the TV to use TV on the wall, and SHE tries to score IT, which is wild because it's bigger than her oh, so she's just like, come on what .

you think is onna .

happen SHE thinks someone is there are up and what he wants that's she's five. That's good enough by the way. Disney is, I believe at a thirty on the go, ninety skill.

the whole .

bundle disney and put .

on all just the company.

And that's ten for no one, as is going on with marvel. Just some weird stuff there. ten? four? no.

And they read a big debt load with who u and all the others stuff. They ve got to do that. And in ten, because max made me watch a series of movies called the descendants.

So bad it's the billions of disney movies, all of that children. And then they dance, fight to bring their cities together. That sounds. And they made three of these they .

made after the hunger games, and they were like, this is kind of like that. And then I was awful. And they really I don't worry IT.

I don't want to talk about IT. There's the rest of this .

part say it's more bit everything to descendants. It's very bad in that to me. I think moves disney closer to death than I do feel like .

you have to add like five or six bore points for just like bob I go might literally just burn IT down layout maybe like i'm actually retiring in this time and just torch disney yeah okay, what categories do you want that? I believe IT qualifies for everything you have available except for mesh because yes.

is something not nish. I'm i'm going to put this the the bundle in awards. I think the words categories is the hardest to fill. This my entire .

feeling who look on an Oscar, you can have IT believe disney.

the disney corporation .

is not disney plus, though I don't think any disney plus originals are tarring IT up at .

the award shows. Come on.

high school musical, the musical.

the series brushing, give the sound design like.

that's probably you, right?

So you get two pics now. Okay, get two pics. I've done 4k correct？

So I need cheap. So for chief, i'm going to go. Okay, because they got the live stuff. You you could watch the state of the union if you wanted to, on p OK. You got that the olympics .

are coming and stuff like that.

And it's like, it's okay. IT is very affordable, but for it's also where .

I watch parks and recreation. So it's very important to my life.

Yeah, I know I this was again, I knew you'd d picked IT last year.

so I wanted to he was going to be my next pic that was right there.

Thank you for that. And then what are the other categories?

Again, you still have awards, live niche and wild card.

See, those are also easy to feel. I feel like .

one substantially list.

So going to say awards for love. I've a good. I've got one in the pocket for awards, okay, but i'm going to go niche. But this time i'm going .

to go crunch, roll.

wait to do you rank your last one?

Oh no, I have to rank IT. You're right. You're right. P OK, wow, I think that's like a, like a twenty twenty.

yeah. You think .

netflix is more likely to die than p cock?

Think disney is to die. Peacock cock is in dangerous, just directly being forgotten about yeah .

but it's it's growing just .

to straight up the Robertson family and compass. We did peak who named this yeah nobody .

knows that exists, but it's still like there. I think it's like the sixth the most subscribed like platform right now for our streaming platforms. And like people are doing IT mainly it's David and other people who want to watch parks and rec yeah and so so yeah and I feel like parks and rec is really gonna like let us survive .

in a way that netflix can rect scription rea.

Yeah first of all, I would pay for that for the rest of my life. Yeah, but also, netflix has suits realized favorite show on start .

kissing at you. I don't if I told the story in the point, I have an easy afferent college to doing great. They hit their first exams and they are pressure in your college and my needs.

He wants to be, he wants to do fransisca. So she's a campaign, texted me and said, what's law school like? Because he had encountered her first.

Like, can exams? And I was like, what is going on here like this hard? Don't get to the school first just like blank and advice and she's like, I ve been watching a lot of suits like this is a danger to amErica like this dumb show like .

single .

handily taking women on a step.

The point of the show is that the guy doesn't go to law school. Yeah, so why would you want to .

go to law school or watch of the show? Also, the brain and soul every passing minute. So I just like suits, I don't think through you love IT.

I've watched several .

episodes of the show. And the other .

thing everybody did, you know, is nearly addition pursuit.

where they make a marco role was a weird call. Bec, see, can you fit in this dress? Like, not at all.

A little sorry.

So that was .

yeah right.

So we like hard diverge.

Yes, sorry, sorry.

So p og you think is close less closer up in netflix?

Yeah because peacock is an entertainment company. Like like I fully believe that companies that are built on entertainment are going to have their streaming services probably survived longer than the companies who are built around tech because the tech companies are trying to make art like technology. yeah. And that's just there's a lot of similarities between those two, but there's a lot of things .

that are not is can we algorithm recreate a movie.

right? And that's dump where's like picos? Like can we make poker face and that's cool. I mean, four people watched IT.

I was one of them, but I ve got a bunch people, and that was very good. Yeah, poker face was great. That's the only one .

that I you were the audience in the car, there was dead silence from the crowd.

We can put that in post. We can put that in pose. Yeah I didn't even in .

peak hard french go ninety currenty .

role oh that once harder because they just are like they're killed in an awful lot of stuff over there right? Um every time I love like notices he wants the company.

he's like no control sone.

that's oni merged .

IT with the company. This is a real name of the company fundament tion.

Oh yeah, fundament tions from my town.

Super cool.

And you imagine the meeting where they had to decide whether to keep crunchy roll or fundament.

So so the sony's both then they merge them together. They're got rid of the the digital purchases. I was a big outward one of those words.

So great role, but they're just on max. Then they just like have .

a license here there in the dirigible OK well.

who that changes little on the go go at skate, right? If there doesn't have the spectre.

what depends on how much you think touching h reo max immediately brings you closer to death? Like if you acknowledged bio max, like are you closer to death?

That's true. That's true. So so ten points because I was on HBO max, so it's been like acknowledged by that.

Ten points because it's earned by SONY and SONY also often forgets its own things. And then ten points for the webs. I'm a wep. I am sorry. I I hope .

that's forty.

No, i'm at thirty. That's just thirty o so it's .

thirty thirty didn't this is my friends .

are hard core yeah .

they are hard.

President of control decoder. And he was like, we're ready to go.

He was he was very excited like that thing started for just like people who wanted to pire enemy yeah from overseas and then they're like.

what if we just make what sold to them instead and .

and they did and it's like, cool. That's awesome. I support you crunchy roll.

right? I like that right now.

You're up and i'm looking my list here. I'm going to feel that fork last OK very confident that I control out for k last and get ahead.

So i'm going to go with wild card OK.

And I am picking h po. max. My friends .

just called max. If you want to pick H B O max, that's ine. I'm actually good with I to call .

the streaming service by the name of my dog are going full. Warner brothers owned and affiliated HBO max, the whole name. By the way, David, I do.

You have your tobago when you to stop us, if you register. And I give you a topic, the two bags are sponsored by paramo plus and by h rio max. You get everybody has to pick one who picked the paramount plus one in the stream.

I think you know who .

on the five people who picked the atria max, one that's every holding them up. So David, I got our ninety percent.

yeah.

So we asked all of the people giving on the top bags and they all try to be really diplomatic. Well, like gets about half and half with day. Asia was really.

And then one woman, this is a real thing. This is reporting. You cannot cancel me for this. This is a quote. I'm a little worried about this quote.

I was there for this.

This is a true thing that was said to us. And then I just backed away from this situation. One of them said to us, the ladies are taking the param out one, because the logo is pretty here.

I didn't .

say that. I don't make that up. Someone else that is behind reporting to you what was said. And I guarantee you this was said to us just to even out the idea that everyone was taking HBO max yes.

because the first person was like, oh yeah, it's the max once and then was like, well, no, I mean, it's like it's fine. They're both grade that's fifty, fifty, don't even know that. And then there was somebody two sheets sound who was like.

what if I makes them shoot up about the logo here? That was like, very much about this was going anyway. I took the issue x bag to give to my daughter max and promptly forgot IT so fine. Sh'll be fine. He knows.

And so uh h reMarks.

by the way, also um and eighty on the go and scale of doomed amy services.

how do how do you measure that? How do you get those points?

Well, I do. You have to add up that the eighty is a real vibe. Yeah, that's just the looming ing presence of David S S. In his decision .

making just like what's that atrio max.

as you know, a product of a doomed merger with A N T, in which A T convinced a federal judge this was quote of vision deal, and that the vision was they would put short versions of game of thrones on android phones.

Oh yeah.

That would have in our nations justice system. Look at this. Like, sick.

Yes, because I would be cool.

A real thing .

that say a sense that loud and like I can't possibly be true, like there's no way that thing I just .

said is real is super. They are like that. The vision is we're going to preload stuff on mid range android phones and game with the inception that didn't paint out, as many of you may have noticed at all, fall part theyve got an enormous amount of debt.

And what they have is a lot of TNT customers who can't quit H B O. Max, i'm one of these people. I'm grandfathered into a rim x plan, and so I cannot put this in the fork category because my t account no longer knows about h foma x, and I can't leave whatever a version of the service i'm currently subscribed to, which no longer has .

forget that sounds right.

This is these are some of the the the biggest, most sophisticated companies in our country, and our database forgot about you.

but they're keep charging. You don't worry about that.

Yeah, they will keep charge, definitely keep charging.

I believe at the wild card, would they have even been good though? Mean, for max, me, HBO. Max, no.

no, no, no finite IT .

would have been bad.

I watched, what's? What's the one where they fight? Let them fight. got.

So that's some .

my brain works. I'd watched that in their version of atmos envision. yeah.

And I was like, what if we do this at two bits per second? Was just like a series of shapes and colors and noise, beautiful, like a baby too, just like happening. And then the one I was like, let them fight. I tell you.

want to experience. I love that. Yeah, right? I can't believe no one has picked youtube yet. I feel obligated to pick youtube.

youtube T， V.

you too premium. So i'm going to put youtube in cheap. So neither i'm getting getting .

youtube with .

all the ads, like every single ad you can imagine that is .

the worst choice on this list i'm going to watch you do with ads is the worst choice on this list.

I just say that's a good choice. That's how I watch youtube now.

I'm logged in so I get recommendations, but I have to watch all the ads. I get mad at people who have ads. Now on youtube, there's a thing that has happened recently, but i'll get over IT.

I'm in the draft, will get streaming. Yes, I agreed with that. Just what I don't even get to have IT. You're going on ads. I'm going i'm going to youtube .

and you're just gone to straight american cheese. Other cheese s are available, but just no slice is in the mouth.

And I just give IT to me. okay. So at the end of round three, youtube is a zero on the good the scale. Yes.

only part. Google fees might be the only .

thing left on the internet at the end of the it's just youtube and the verge. And that will be that that will be great.

Two websites, very different ideas.

Support for the show comes from the crucible moments, a podcast from the koa capital. We've all had turning points in our lives where the decisions we make end up having lasting consequences. No one knows this Better than the founders of some of today's most influential in critical moments.

Let's listeners in on the maker break events that defined major companies like dropbox, youtube, Robinson od and more told by the founders themselves. Tune in to the season two of crucial moments. Today, you can listen at crucial moments, stop com, or where ever you listen to podcasts.

okay. So we are at the end of around three where half I two draft alex so far has peacock, netflix and county rule. Nei has tiktok, the disney, bondi and max.

I have youtube, apple TV and prime video. I think it's very clear who is currently in third place, but leave that alone for now. I mean, first, wow.

just wait. Just, yeah.

we're doing fine. I'm okay. So for around four, I get to go again, which I am not .

prepared for.

You been cheating this time is a play.

He's just moving everything around. He's giving himself that place.

giving himself I did briefly give me line two of my picks. So that was computer and great. So I have four k niche and wild card left OK.

And I think I can't do any of the fork ones I know if anymore. So that's bad. Does two become his niche?

What do you think? No, no. Two tube is like what happens when you turn out?

Yes, from the audience?

That's just don't know. To be to be is like a mainstream free yeah ad supported alex lovers these day. Yeah.

it's just free ad supported television. It's got all of the stuff you .

just made that i'm very boring and very niched.

That's kind of my point. No, no, because it's got you want know where I can describe IT is going to support you.

right? You one of these bombers and you get off tiktok you on the eight hours of tiktok yeah and you go turn on your the cheapest TV that you brought IT the best by you're watching tube is just happening to .

you yeah is probably I don't .

mean that to generate just pluto tiktok, rid LED bombers that popular to me, to the country. I am one of them. I mean to say that that is a thing that happens on tvs by default, and that makes IT not instream fair enough.

alright. Well then I won't take that. I will take criterion.

Yeah that much more. Yeah that .

feels right. Yeah criteria is like, no, it's like in the twins on the scale, I would say like I want IT to continue to exist and so do lots of .

people I think criterion .

wants that to. But like maybe all of criteria will not exist forever.

IT feels pretty sustainable. Yeah there is a really great story recently about just kind of how sustainable IT is and it's all business .

but isn't a sustainability like James Cameron wants IT to exist yes yeah that therefore IT will exist yeah yeah it's like the .

letter box step where like it'll be fine because Martin score he uses IT. So like what comes to show up? It's going to be all right. So i'm taking a criteria that's my pic nelie up. You have three categories remaining, your fork live and yes.

does your three youtube TV of sunday ticket. I don't think you understand. I'm just recapitulating my draft that already won this thing. Youtube nerds are like, what do we do in discovery plus like i'm just like straight america.

But if you didn't win.

well know actively.

in fact, I want. So i'm just coming in again.

I'm just saying I like to think that we have a good relationship in this situation. I would like to just directly gas like you and say that I want.

What you going to do? No.

you just you do two TV to take that as a straight zero. Yeah, yeah. But you can't. You're fighting the service that delivers Taylor slot in travis calls you to millions in week like it's fine. IT is the fastest car in cable service in america. IT has the IT has the most stuff because it's a cable service and IT has the the full backing of our nation's military sash. nfl.

I mean, I bought a decade of the ball, which means that bought .

a decade of existing yeah yes. So for ten years it's a zero .

eleven years or until they break up the reports I had suggested. He's in singapore right now. So I think things they both discuss taking the next step, would you take a not following this crazy i'm IT alright.

so that's yours .

and and I want you to know that i'm giving you youtube TV because IT is a separate product from youtube yes. But if you now try to just be like youtube TV but not sunday, take IT no yeah do you like no, I don't I don't know what .

you're arguing with or who you're aging with her, but you I have played .

these .

things that you yes, and I get now directly just .

like they go, okay, alexa.

you get two now. Okay, I two I to go to, you get two picks wow, what's left for me?

How do you not know how I don't know. I know your three left our awards live and wild card OK.

I'm saving the words for us. I got a good one for .

that one and you're very .

excited about i've got live.

live and wild card .

in wild card 5。 That's tRicky. So live, i'm going to go channels again, IT worked last time, explained to the .

people with channels.

okay. So channels is an APP. It's like A D, V R. APP. You can plug IT into your cable. If you still subscribed to, you can plug IT into an internet and then you just D V R of IT also .

gets all the fast channel .

and it's all the fast channel. So you can go and like you just have your pluto u and have your to tube and then have your abc and all of the other.

I think he was you that described with me as, like an rss reader for TV, which I found very compelling thing.

That sick is very actively developing a really pretty UI. I just like to take the hell of IT. I use IT a lot OK. So i'm i'm going to go with that for my life because he gives me all of my lives and then my wild card. I think this one's really obvious it's going to repair amount because it's it's an eighty nine on the the ninety scale yeah .

the most .

yeah channels is like a zero because I don't .

think you can kill R S S.

Yeah you can kill R S S. Uh, but parameter plus definitely like an eighty nine. It's closes.

You can get until like they sell IT in a couple of weeks or whatever. Um so but yeah, I think it's a good wild card. It's it's a fun. I I I enjoy the cowboys and I enjoy the live stuff and I enjoy the the star track. So it's like IT gets everything for me and that wasn't .

enough to keep a streaming service alive. No.

how boys and start truck .

you would think you would have been in nineteen sixty six. And unfortunately, me in the boomers are the only ones that still watch IT. But but you know we'll get merged with peacock er or something, so i'll have IT all together again.

There is a really good article about the demise of harman plus that just talks about the sheer hubris, which was this product was launched. It's beautiful where they are like, well, we don't have a lot of stuff, but we've got cbs, we have got start truck and we have tailor shared in and everyone is like that saw enough stuff like do you how much stuff that fly? No IT turned out to I mean.

IT worked for them for like what thirty years as a broadcast network. Cbs was the most watch broadcast network.

So they're like, ah you're one of only three things that exists to watch .

yeah yeah but when they had like a monopoly, kind of like a suda monopoly, they crushed IT more competition came and they they are eighty .

yeah gets tough for where shall .

to one thing single hardly keeping CS like this is a true story. Alex is addicted to sixty minutes. Yes, he walks into our newsroom at least twice a week and it's like I saw the thing and sixty minutes and all of us have feel like, well, definitely alex, that means that happened eight months ago.

It's my favorite show. IT just gives you a really good insight into what cbs wants bombers to think about. Yeah, and I love that. I want to .

know that too.

Yeah, good time.

Lesly stall. I mean, only god, I could talk about her for the hours, but we don't have that much time to go. So don't yeah.

think about south by southwest. I think about .

less to fan girling.

exactly. David, you're up next. Oh, it's me. Crab, right? I've got, i've got two that, right? Yes.

four K, K, and nh niche.

Well, the snow, one can go into other one OK and picking my new favorite streaming service, bravia core. The string so is only available.

Select anything. I just instantly lost the drag regulation.

More movies on IT, and they all look amazing. There are three and eighty megabits for seconds out of control. SONY owns no movies that owns no IP. It's just like old fighter and movies. You have to set the TV to allow IT to stream IT like this level of that .

call your cable company you like, listen.

let's get weird two hours. So this is a true fact. What's zones like such a big distance company? They make the tvs only the TV support the stream service.

They did not put an ethernet port on the TV that is fast enough support the streaming service. So you either have to use wifi or you have to buy A U. S.

Speed eater and doctor like a us. This is a great. So I did IT is great. I love IT. I've never had more fun of my life not watching movies and instead figuring the settings of my TV. It's very good.

So where's IT on the good night? It's like a zero, right?

It's so only loves this thing.

Yeah.

they're never going. yeah. If you've ever wanted to watch a ghost busters to in the most poste quality tirely, you can see which I did.

I did IT. So I watched the shit out a ghost western ship, and I showed IT to other people. And they're like, why we watching? I like 4k IMAX， right? You don't have .

to pick this. You know that, right? No one, no one from SONY is back there. You have just pointing .

anything in the free, the glorious state of texas. I'm exercising my free market rights as an american to take bravia poor, the best streaming service that is the weirdest use that has a credit system that makes no sense. Sometimes I just forgets of you, it's all very bad, but it's all glorious. Like I want every one of these services to offer me like stream of blue way to me and that's that's what David just like he's like you should start talking.

It's sort rifer. It's good. I just always thought I was a bit when you would commit and be like, I wash the movie on brother, a core and now i'm like, I know new life loves party in court.

I do you like a little monitor shows so that always shows you what the bit rate is.

Do you think I don't have the eero APP on my phone open showing me how fast net speed is going on the TV while I watched something like zero k thirty again.

I don't watch euro dark thirty. It's just up there why you watch a good and then I ve told.

destroy if you watch you at at thirty and then you have a small child who is not complained about eating, you start accidentally like saying torture words to your small child just like jero three is like a very intense and then the next day is like your behavior determines how your treatment he's like i'm not eating the apples. You don't do that just I don't do .

that to your child all right now it's me got one left. I have two left, but I get to do in both right now oh wow, like a lot of pressure so i'm going to pick to b for four k because I just now the second confirmed that there is at least one four k thing on two b and it's a fireplace video like it's like a ual log situation but IT counts four kay and it's on to be so I get to have IT that's going in four k OK you think about IT should they pick to b for a different one? I did this draft poorly.

Yeah that has IT is we're just picking stuff, but we're coming around. Be fine. I just realized all of my wild cards were gone two rounds ago.

So it's been like kind of messing with me for a while, but it's okay. So i'm picking to be OK, which I actually think is like thirty somewhere in that range on the scale. It's like doing really well.

It's exegi very popular also. Fox has no other streaming anything to do, so they just give everything to to be. But also two, this whole thing was its free and there's ads and that's where everybody else is going.

So that could be bad. And so now there are like, what if you had you yeah they're like now they're like, what we have to get some good content. How do we do that? And I don't know. Welcome to everyone else is hell from .

the last well, they just go to like that love. They're like, hey, is there any show .

you want to cancel? And we just like, no texts.

absolutely not. I want to put IT in the ball, get have IT that was my as love. That was good.

but he was great because I actually don't know.

Sounds like .

that exactly he .

was going on IT.

yeah, 我 觉得 i think for my wild card， I think i'm taking instagram reels, which feels insane as I say that out.

I just you can .

you he can't have you chose tiktok. You can absolutely choose .

the doesn't have pictures in a .

famous a to slide shows.

The slide shooes are effectively a form of video. Videos are just pictures .

on a row. When does this only come a video? Now let's talk about this.

Like, what is I go through .

my power point really fast.

And if you were swipe tiktok hair salon twenty four friends for second all, persistence of vision here and tratement turnout.

St, no, i'm giving its me, I think.

I think, by the way, taking to be in inserm als back to back is just the satisfaction of the last two cars in the little.

Do you know how much. Content I have now all the good stuff.

how much repurposed garbage from other .

people he's getting tiktok.

I literally just got tiktok like five times after, which is perfect. You're going to see everything. And then two weeks later.

i'm going to see IT. It's great.

Super had with the same U I too.

Yeah, I like to years. I think I think this is great. But I also, I really feel like we started with like things that have one Oscars and all the way down at things that unirradiated call themselves content, and that this is the spectrum that i've created, prd of IT.

Who's in a new lie? crap? I wasn't prepared.

I was, don't know.

Last one is niche.

This is all you have left. So David just updated this strategy with the word sonny baby accord. And somehow google dox transmitted his disdain when the last category I have left.

his niche.

which is tough here. I you are not allowed back to give a stream yeah ah okay I know I know I do if feel weird about IT must say IT it's only because my my my father and mother at my house and he has been watching this streaming service non stop since he arrived. Motoring TV tell us about motor train TV a motor train TV is in a habit plays, uh, motor trend, uh, content at you. Uh, if you are interested in older cars being turned into nicer cars, do I have an APP for you? My friends um have you ever thought about watching a show where some dudes go to car action?

That's that's so whole.

Do they do they bid or they just .

go when they they are, whether this what bad, it's very much like pbs but with cars and you know, I also find a captain and cardinal. I just can't the duration yeah, it's currently being displayed. My home is really quite something. And so just for the family.

i'm doing this. And this is like .

a thing you can turn on and IT just keeps happening at you. Yeah, IT is like a full grade guide of motor. I'm pretty certain my father now is keeping this service of float.

Yeah.

it's just this motor trend. One word or two words.

one d one word, but two word like TV is different word.

Motor 穿 TV get。 Okay, that's not what I thought you were going. Say, do you think something so many choices I was really excited .

to find out. Yeah I was really .

thinking about like, what's the bottom of my apple TV grid and then did it's just a bit wasteland of gone nine.

Mine is like BBC america, yeah and like a pbs APP that won't let me log in anymore because I cancelled my account when moved and they were like, no, you hate pbs in america. You can get there.

yeah. They keep really mad when you very upset. Pbs is, yes.

N, P, R is mad at me. now. It's a whole thing, right? Acx, you're a place. Awards.

awards going to go. A movie .

which .

has one an Oscar.

Yeah, say the name of the thing again.

Movie M U B.

I M U B.

OK, it's real.

It's real and it's not to be.

No, it's movie got IT.

okay, it's real. I swear it's real.

I saw when I was walking in, they had some signs outside.

They went where is like in case need to think of a fifth streaming .

service got about .

moving and then you'd check to .

make sure they want an Oscar. Yeah, because movie is all independent films from the last few decades.

That's good. What Oscar r did IT win a lot? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

This is not a movie. That one in Oscar is available on this service. Yeah, that's nothing. This is, this is a movie.

Original is the plus.

as is a world. Because for the movie, an Oscar, what like easily when documentary, Oscar thinks to quest love alex cranes. And then I made a whole disney plus original joke. Where have you been?

Have been this you think that I can't just choose like, no.

that's all of them.

So I could .

you IT has a movie available that is one on Oscar. Is, is, is tiktok in one minute?

exactly. 来 找 exactly。 I always, always ready for IT.

So yes, we're just going to take IT, a really available that has one of Oscar ready.

one hundred percent. All right?

This was the hardest category because for because .

of this rule.

This is because.

if not for the world.

be the easy.

Twitter has a movie is on IT. I know, by the way, he says it's a video of first platform. This twitter account, you could pick wit.

if you can, if choker corals in his one. And Oscar, well, on x, he can have IT. Yes.

sure have been a streaming service very specifically.

Yes, the company that hosts IT has to have made IT an investor Oscar.

Then i'll choose who you you .

can do that because she's .

on the bundle. That is true. Okay.

bail, that's fair. But movies is Better now .

that you heard .

about movie just now, I know.

And IT looks really so i'm gonna subscribe. It's got four k it's got a lot of old movies.

It's many which you .

want Oscars and got a word winning content on. Yeah sure. So I think this .

isn't theatrical dirigo tes films by emerging and establish filmmakers unlike everything else that does that exact same thing.

I feel like the best case scenario buying display advertising in south by southwest is people on a stage googling what your companies I legitimately was like.

forty.

perfect or zero people have signed up, but we have definitely google IT.

Now, Alice, where is movie on the good name?

This is the worst case scenario.

No, it's a tool. E, now, right?

Well, I like you to do both.

Okay, you wanted to. Okay, movie is IT feels like it's gonna be pretty low on the go ninety scale. IT feels like like I ch twenty because a lot of you like .

like I was I was just like the movie here twenty twenty eight netflix x is gone yeah movie movie of .

this because like nobody knows about movie and .

movie is just like, yeah, they kill that if .

you can't find IT yeah it's like it's just driving over there in a corner and periodical netflix so everybody is gonna lip on .

IT net public company like reads got to get out there and explain this content movies just we just yeah they can do .

what every yeah who on the other hand, I chose a lot of eighty nine on this one huh because it's definitely like an eighty nine like it's IT doesn't have a lot of time left .

in this world may be the most .

eighty nine more .

than param out plus no yeah no way .

hou is already actively dying the person who oes.

Hou has said he's in well, like trying to rank different eighty nine actually why you have other numbers?

I didn't anything this what .

is the most eighty nine? It's like question that has long .

been solved plus seven OK and then they'll put a and tiktok is .

at the talk, is the t like which do you think is more likely .

did not be here at the end of the year? Param out plus or takes up might .

not be here the end of the week?

That's fair. Are the .

teams .

are strong, the teens are strong, people on their tiktok.

they they do and they will VPN into china immediately to get me on the other side of all.

Yeah, a lot of people are learning about so I think I think you will persist and putting .

in to eighteen right again. What is the most dating on is a bad one question um I think takes argues right now at this moment who knows something going to happen yeah I think take talk is eight I think parent plus is an eighty eight I think who lose an eighty seven okay who lose a famously and killed like many, many, many people tried to kill who you and .

they can do IT. I would love if bob was just like.

couldn't do IT .

just let IT .

persist that that I somehow I have something keep. We're going. I think I think they want to merge IT and I think they want that to be the brand they call the stuff yeah that's gone one my feeling yeah who .

who is not going to be around for bryan?

We're going to be so wrong. It's tell me who luu and movie i'm so .

easy tropes next year and netflix has just gone out of business. And alex is like I told .

I going to be so vindicated around still around the netflix gone.

Please watch my show and netlist.

You can watch IT in one minute sections on instagram. Really.

please watch the future of one minute increments on instagram reals. It's going to go great for us.

It's perfect, right? That is the end of the draft, which is the ft. Yes, please on IT, okay, and grants one first.

Yes, and you picked p cock movie slash hou. I'm make you going to give you both. Just feel like you should have both. Thank you. Netflix channels cruche role and paramo plus.

I'm gonna a great time watching all of my content.

I think .

there's a dismissive his life from over there. Be very .

clear to still ni picked tiktok, the disney bundle now that sonny brava core, which is a real, real tank, a youtube TV with studying ticket, motor train, TV and max. I just .

found the point is.

like all over the place.

this is breath, this is depth, this is Oscar winning motors and all at this point, if they don't in Oscar, what are you doing ah everyone else has movie um yeah I would say the range here is unparalleled. The quality is unparalleled. The fork is available if you can get up your eighteen t plan. No finite .

is motorcar TV .

in forky. No, no, no.

Not sixty p that is being shot .

on a go pro from one thousand and eighty four. That's the situation.

I like that. I picked youtube o with ads.

Yeah all the .

ads uh about T V, T V prime video, criterion collection and instagram s still having a lot of feelings.

I think you want actually thinking about IT and like.

i'm sorry, you pick you youtube with ads and .

instagram reals and you pick .

via cord well yeah ah yeah like eighty.

I can all have winters.

but why I have a gig a bit in our connection. What was the new movie .

that just came back?

Accord the unix, anyone with you a movie which does not contain any sequences of action fast enough to require eighty megabits. First, like that movie can be compressed into a series of Stellar rain. His shirt off, looking great.

Here's the power is going powel next to another. Jack got like just one frame at a time, severely. It's just a series of pictures are going by very quickly.

You could watch in one minute increments on tiktok and probably get .

and i'm confident that, that will be like tiktok entire content strategy is a copyright infringement yeah and also trainees propaganda uh and you can just see I I maintain a list of tiktok that I think should be media study's PHD is happy to share in all of them are just layers .

upon layers of copyright in france.

Yeah cus right.

That's the table like that. That's the draft.

Declare him a winter.

Two of us. We have an audience.

Yeah, you're you're right. Okay, who thinks me? I won the drafts? Yeah.
