Transcript
- 0:00I don't. Know who that is?
- 0:02Some Instagram drive. I love drama.
- 0:05Obsessed. With this a long time Nantucket
- 0:08store and you know Nantucket is her island they.
- 0:11Don't who the who's? Who the hell are these people?
- 0:13Maybe I'm just old and I'm out of the loop.
- 0:14Posted an Instagram story of their shop and there's a sign at
- 0:18the top it says no influencers. Oh, that's kind of based.
- 0:22I agree with that. Obviously you can go into the
- 0:26into the shop if you're an influencer, you just can't
- 0:29influence. And I, I assume, listen, I don't
- 0:32know the specifics of it, but it's probably not like, hey, you
- 0:36can't take your phone out and take pictures.
- 0:37You probably do that, but you can't just be an obnoxious
- 0:39asshole in the in the restaurant.
- 0:40That's what I'm assuming it is. And don't come up to us and ask
- 0:43us for free shit or to spend $5000 for a fucking TikTok post.
- 0:47Like how obnoxious, which is already.
- 0:49It's so funny because I feel like posts like that, especially
- 0:52when they're, and this is the biggest problem I have, is when
- 0:54they're displayed as authentic where it's like I went to, you
- 0:56know, poopy butt dingles and I got a coffee.
- 0:59But like they actually went there and they asked for $5000
- 1:01to give a performative review. I hate those.
- 1:05Isn't the whole point of the content creation thing to be
- 1:07like kind of just like a dude or, or a chick or whatever them
- 1:10or some just kind of random like person that's just doing stuff
- 1:14not to do this like super ridiculous performative
- 1:17nonsense. I think it's preposterous, Pete.
- 1:19Durant had left like a really lengthy comment on.
- 1:21If you call yourself a feminist but proudly put up a no
- 1:24influencer sign, it's worth asking who you are attempting to
- 1:27delegitimize and why. What?
- 1:31Wait, women? Well, I do hate women.
- 1:34No, I'm just kidding. I don't understand how you get
- 1:35to women here. Men can be influencers too.
- 1:38Guys, come on. Mocking women when they become
- 1:40powerful in a new industry isn't new.
- 1:42It's just a strange message coming from a store that
- 1:44celebrates a craft with such a risk rich history of women
- 1:47shaping the island and community and the economy.
- 1:51What? What the fuck are they talking
- 1:52about? I can't read the rest of it
- 1:54because this hassle has over here.
- 1:57It's not a restaurant by the way, it's a it's like some kind
- 1:59of clothing store. But for those of you who don't
- 2:01know, the creator economy is overwhelmingly driven by women.
- 2:04Is that true? Brands have shifted billions of
- 2:07dollars into creator marketing because it's constantly delivers
- 2:10something traditional advertising can't trust
- 2:12community in measurable sales. OK, one woman with a loyal
- 2:17audience can successfully launch a business at scale that would
- 2:20have acquired, would have once required corporate backing with
- 2:23a massive advertising budget. That's a win.
- 2:25This sign isn't. I mean, listen, here's my thing
- 2:27is that I don't really, like, maybe they're the guy.
- 2:31Apparently the person who put the sign up said it was a joke.
- 2:35Either way, why are you getting so worked up in turning this
- 2:37into a woman thing? Like, why are you making it a
- 2:38feminist thing? Why can't you just say like,
- 2:40hey, you could have said everything else in this post.
- 2:42That's just like, hey, you know, you've been helped a lot by
- 2:47different people in this specific instances of clothing
- 2:50stores. So it's probably a lot of women.
- 2:51So I don't know why you're turning your back on, you know,
- 2:53people who want to try to, you know, whatever that have done a
- 2:56lot of positive for your brand. That's fine, but why turn into a
- 2:59fucking feminist issue? That's what gets obnoxious to
- 3:02me. Like a really lengthy comment on
- 3:04it. I guess I can't go to the store
- 3:06I mean. You can go to the store, but.
- 3:09And I just feel like in general I can go to the store, so she's
- 3:12standing up for me so that I could go.
- 3:14You can go anyway. Like, how would they know you're
- 3:16like these people, these when people want to be depressed so
- 3:18bad? You know, I don't know if you
- 3:20guys know this. You guys can do this thing.
- 3:21It's called code switching. OK?
- 3:23If you're an influencer, all you have to do is just not be an
- 3:25influencer when you go into the store.
- 3:27OK? I know that.
- 3:29I know that being an influencer is almost as, you know,
- 3:32oppressive as being black guys. You know, there's so much a
- 3:35systemic oppression against influencers with no influencers
- 3:38signs, but you know, you guys can turn it off for a second,
- 3:41OK. But in general, if you have a
- 3:42store or a business and you have a sign that says no blank about
- 3:46a group of human beings unless it says like no fists.
- 3:50Right, so. Right, you're wrong.
- 3:52A group. Of that's insane to me.
- 3:55This is what I was I was making. I was memeing before.
- 3:57But like they actually think that they're like black people
- 3:59that are like oppressed, like any minority or marginalized
- 4:01group. Typically these are immutable
- 4:03characteristics that people are like born with, you know, like
- 4:07being black or brown or gay or trans or, you know, you know, I
- 4:11don't know, something like that. Being an influencer is not an
- 4:14immutable characteristic. That's like saying no
- 4:17skateboarding inside of the store.
- 4:19I don't know, like, I think it's fucking ridiculous.
- 4:21You guys are insane. They they could have just been
- 4:24like, yeah, I think that's shitty.
- 4:24You know, these, these brands, they do really well off of
- 4:27influencers. So I don't know why they would
- 4:28turn their back on them. That's fine.
- 4:30But these guys are these guys, are they want to be oppressed so
- 4:32fucking bad. Holy shit.
- 4:34Human beings, That's just screwing.
- 4:37It is discrimination, but it's not bad discrimination.
- 4:39It's like a discriminate against a three-year old for driving a
- 4:41fucking car. Who cares?
- 4:44It's just and like, it's just crazy.
- 4:45It's crazy to be like, not. Care.
- 4:46This is what the problem is. People don't understand what
- 4:48discrimination is. Discrimination isn't bad
- 4:50inherently, it's just bad sometimes.
- 4:51It depends on what the discrimination is for, right?
- 4:54Like you, You discriminate against people shitting in the
- 4:55streets. Like OK.
- 4:57Well, that's weird because of your job.
- 4:58So unless it says no criminals, yeah, no influencers.
- 5:02I can't believe I can't go to the store these.
- 5:04People are so dumb I. Know and you know I don't even
- 5:06want to go I'm going dairy boy like what's the intention here?
- 5:08We don't want business unless. I think the intention is that
- 5:10influencers act like this. These people are like super
- 5:14entitled and I'm fucking annoying You're.
- 5:15Stealing. There's like literally no bad
- 5:17downtight. Having someone in your store?
- 5:18What about no thieves? Yeah, that would be good.
- 5:21I think that's a given, but OK. It's so lame.
- 5:25Yeah. And so this is very much a
- 5:26sleigh from Paige. And like, an easy kill shot.
- 5:29Agreed. I really, I love these two
- 5:31though. I love their confidence.
- 5:33I love their confidence in keeping this up and feeling like
- 5:35justified and valid and then what they're saying.
- 5:37I think that's beautiful. I love confidence.
- 5:39It's just the additional delusion.
- 5:40Is this a real podcast? Yeah, it's the Toast pod.
- 5:44Loved it. Stupid idiots.
- 5:45Yeah, agreed. Women hating women haters.
- 5:47Women. I don't.
