  Speaker 1: so I went and I looked at the list of
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: the Immy nominations, and I recognized some of the names.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I would say I recognized about one third of the
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: names of the actors. Melschelle, Phi for Jason Siegel, you know,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: some of the some of the actors I reconsent DAYA.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Most of the I don't. I don't know if I've
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: actually seen a single show. I can tell you there
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: was not a single show that was nominated where I've
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: seen one of the episodes from this year.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think You're not alone. It is so interesting,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: isn't it. Okay, So, the Emmys and the Oscars used
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: to be this huge deal, big deal. We used to
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: we couldn't wait for it. We wanted to see what
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: the stars were wearing, who was nominated.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: It seemed very fair.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: It is now it's almost becoming obsolete to those of
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: us who used to really care about it, because you
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: realize it's just it's fake, it's phony, it's it's it's
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: not at all it's not at all reality. When I
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: when I say that, I mean like you have people like, Okay,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: this is the the Emmys that were nominated for Nighttime.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Cobert, Yeah, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: Not Fallon but Jimmy Kimmel, John Oliver, sorry it Live
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: and somebody else.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: But no, which is the number one show, that nighttime
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: show that's the one most people are watching. It also
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: happens to be the only conservative one on there, and
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: it didn't get nominated.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course not.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like the podcast none of the conservative
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: podcasters you know, got how about that guy?
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I know? Well, think about this.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Okay, So Meghan Markle, her show as ever, Megan Markle,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: it was a flop.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: It was a failure. I wrote. In fact, I wrote
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: down some of the things that was said about this.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Let me just give you the reviews.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: Okay, for her show as ever, thirty eight percent score
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: on Rotten Tomatoes, and the critics consensus called it instantly
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: pleasant but ultimately sterile. The season two, The Times of
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: London said it occupies the sweet spot where irrelevant meets intolerable.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: The Telegraph gave it two stars, dubbing her the monasty
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: to Mary Marie Antoinette, citing a production built impromptu flower marts.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: The Guardian gave it a two star review, stating that
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: it is so painfully contrived that it's genuinely fascinating. This
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: is the show that was canceled after the.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Sweet spot between irrelevant and irritating was what it was.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: It was irrelevant and intolerable, intolerable, yeah, and it was
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: if you watched if you watched it, and I did
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: for a couple of a couple of them, and it
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: was just it felt so.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Fake and phony. It was not authentic. She wasn't authentic.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: She didn't even know the people that she was like,
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: these are you know, these are my closest friends coming
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: in and then she said, now where do you live?
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: She gave herself away. So they put two seasons in one,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: but then they broke it up.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: So she she filmed it all in one thing like
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: maybe probably took her six months and they broke it
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: up in two seasons. Well, her jam didn't do well,
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: nothing went well for her. Yet now all of the sudden,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: this flop of a show is now being nominated, and
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: you don't have Emmy Yes for Emmy's except all of
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: these shows that Taylor Sheridan has. You know, he has
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: done this amazing job.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Yellowstone, Yes, Diane Ran.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: The Madison, Yeah, Landman eighteen ninety two or whatever. Every
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: single shows very popular fan favorites. Yeah, these are the
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: shows that people tune into, good writing, good and they
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: have the critics love them. They're not one of them
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: has ever been nominated, And I wonder why that is, Steven.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Is it because they're all conservatives? I think?
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: So the shows that seem to be nominated are the
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: more woke shows.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: So I was thinking about this about you know, the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: last time I really paid attention maybe to the Oscars
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: for example, I think he was back when Titanic won.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why, because there were there. We
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: my wife and I went and saw three movies in
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: a row, three weekends in a row. So we saw Titanic,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: we saw Amistad and As Good as It Gets Oh yeah,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: those three movies were out at the same time in January, right,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: because they're all fighting for Oscar nominations, and and all
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: three of them were amazing movies. I cannot tell you
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: three movies that I felt were excellent films in what
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: a decade at least twenty.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Years that were nominated or just just period films. Oh yeah, yeah,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: just the.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Level of Titanic, as good as It Gets in as.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: You're right, Yeah.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: And you know what's interesting on top of that is
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: after you know, during COVID, when everything's shut down, afterwards,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: when people started going to the movies again, you know,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: the shows that actually did well, they were the more
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: conservative or Christian based films the chosen.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, those have been some favorite. I just saw Young Washington.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: He was a pretty good film. It wasn't amazing, but
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: it was pretty good and we enjoyed it. So anyway,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: it's not going to get any words. If you'd like
