Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Think of it as your flat screen. You know how
- 0:01Speaker 1: you can go from Hulu to Netflix to Disney to
- 0:05Speaker 1: Paramount Plus? Okay, well, that's exactly what Arrow.net is. A-R-R-O-E.net.
- 0:11Speaker 1: It is the power of choice. In fact, one of
- 0:13Speaker 1: the best podcasts that we've got is That Voice. I've
- 0:16Speaker 1: spent the past 10 seasons with those on NBC's The Voice. Well,
- 0:20Speaker 1: now that it's back for its next season, let's talk
- 0:23Speaker 1: about that history as to how we got up to
- 0:25Speaker 1: where we are right now. That Voice, only on Arrow.net.
- 0:29Speaker 1: A-R-R-O-E dot net. Enjoy your exploration. Hey, it's me, that
- 0:35Speaker 1: question guy. You know, the dude that's always asking questions
- 0:38Speaker 1: because it's so much fun to do the research. Here's
- 0:40Speaker 1: one for you. Why do we endlessly fall for this
- 0:44Speaker 1: thing called clickbait? Plus, while sharing a glass of wine
- 0:49Speaker 1: or champagne, why is it that people always say, cheers?
- 0:54Speaker 1: What's going on here? My name is Arrow. I'm a
- 0:56Speaker 1: daily writer, a silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines
- 0:59Speaker 1: and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate. I
- 1:02Speaker 1: call it the daily mess because it's a chronological walkthrough
- 1:05Speaker 1: in everyday world. It is my daily writing. As a
- 1:08Speaker 1: receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to
- 1:11Speaker 1: throw things to the side because we think we're going
- 1:14Speaker 1: to deal with it later on. If you do not
- 1:16Speaker 1: write it down, you're not going to remember to do it. Well,
- 1:19Speaker 1: when a subject arrives inside of me, dude, it is
- 1:21Speaker 1: time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,
- 1:25Speaker 1: but by doing the research, the picture is always going
- 1:28Speaker 1: to become clearer. This is the Daily Mess. What is
- 1:32Speaker 1: it about clickbait on the internet, and why is it
- 1:35Speaker 1: that we keep jumping into it? Although it's fake, we
- 1:40Speaker 1: still read it anyway. I was very much afraid to
- 1:43Speaker 1: do any type of research on clickbait in fear that
- 1:46Speaker 1: it was going to involve my Instagram, my Facebook, my
- 1:49Speaker 1: CNN news page. I mean, clickbait always shows up in
- 1:52Speaker 1: the absolutely most bizarre times and spaces. The top click
- 1:57Speaker 1: getters are associated with money. Of course, it's about making money.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Here's the winning line. People are losing blank amount of
- 2:06Speaker 1: money every month. And here's why. Coming in at number
- 2:09Speaker 1: two in the clickbait world is this one. Doctors are
- 2:13Speaker 1: warning about this. What, what, what, what, what? Exactly. Mystery
- 2:18Speaker 1: still carries. inside this digital age, and no one can
- 2:22Speaker 1: explain what we just found. Now, here's the thing. We
- 2:26Speaker 1: also have celebrity clickbaits, and the reason why is because
- 2:30Speaker 1: there will be something attached to it that says, so-and-so
- 2:33Speaker 1: has disappeared. Who is it? The most effective clickbait is
- 2:38Speaker 1: based on something that is actually plausible or partly true,
- 2:42Speaker 1: but it's not a wild lie. A compelling headline can
- 2:46Speaker 1: take a real event and exaggerate the implication. A good
- 2:49Speaker 1: example of how that has changed things is when scientists
- 2:54Speaker 1: have discovered something under the ocean. How can we best
- 2:57Speaker 1: explain this mystery? See, the critics are going to be
- 3:00Speaker 1: loving the second one because we've gone a little bit
- 3:04Speaker 1: further in that headline that fabricates the claim. Clickbait. It works.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Because as the National Enquirer once said, inquisitive minds want
- 3:15Speaker 1: to know. Hey, coming up next, why when we share
- 3:19Speaker 1: a glass of wine or champagne, do people go, cheers? Hey,
- 3:25Speaker 1: thanks for coming back to the Daily Mess. While sharing
- 3:28Speaker 1: a glass of wine, champagne, or even water, why do
- 3:31Speaker 1: people always shout out, cheers? Well, it's called a spoken toast.
- 3:36Speaker 1: A wish for good health, happiness, and good fortune for
- 3:39Speaker 1: those on the opposite side of the cheers. It was
- 3:42Speaker 1: the ancient Greeks and Romans who raised their cups during
- 3:46Speaker 1: celebrations or rituals. They were drinking to the health or
- 3:50Speaker 1: success of someone. So why do we even clink our glasses? Well,
- 3:54Speaker 1: the goal is to make drinking morally fun. It is
- 3:58Speaker 1: said that everyone's wine is supposedly supposed to be mixed
- 4:01Speaker 1: a little bit more during that impact. Really? Saying cheers
- 4:06Speaker 1: ripens the atmosphere. It carries energy into your sipping. Cheers
- 4:12Speaker 1: can be used at your biggest celebrations, but it's more
- 4:15Speaker 1: effective when two people in dimly lit rooms clink their
- 4:19Speaker 1: glasses and whisper, Cheers. See, it's not the glass. It's
- 4:25Speaker 1: the celebration. It's the people who are standing with us.
- 4:29Speaker 1: It's there in that moment of now, that cheers, that
- 4:33Speaker 1: things pretty much say, yeah. Yeah, this is very nice.
- 4:36Speaker 1: This is so much better than a verbal argument. And
- 4:39Speaker 1: whatever we do, the hidden away rule when it comes
- 4:42Speaker 1: to saying cheers, don't just shout it out in a group.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Have a reason and a purpose as to why we're
- 4:49Speaker 1: saying cheers. Wait for the right moment and then bring
- 4:55Speaker 1: it in. I'm Arrow and that's The Daily Mess.
