Latest / Wicked Radio with Bill Adams / Wicked Radio 10-2-25: The View Goes Communist-Light & Why Are People Are Cancelling Netflix?
Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Yeah. I had to start the live stream a couple
- 0:06Speaker 1: of minutes late today, four minutes late to be exactly,
- 0:08Speaker 1: because I was looking up fact checks about Zoron or
- 0:11Speaker 1: whatever the hell his name is, mom Donnie, the guy
- 0:13Speaker 1: who's going to be the mayor of New York City.
- 0:16Speaker 1: There's a fun start to the day, huh, because the
- 0:20Speaker 1: view went on and they pretty much campaigned for him yesterday.
- 0:23Speaker 1: And I had no intention of talking about the View
- 0:26Speaker 1: so much two days in a row. They're just kind
- 0:29Speaker 1: of the ones sadly making news these days, so I
- 0:31Speaker 1: apologize for that. I didn't expect it either. I think
- 0:33Speaker 1: that's a first for the podcast. But anyway, sorry for
- 0:35Speaker 1: starting late. But if you're an audio podcast listener or
- 0:39Speaker 1: you watch on the live stream, you think I don't care.
- 0:42Speaker 1: I check this thing out anyway, see what this idiot's
- 0:44Speaker 1: blabbing about. Anyway, Thanks for being here. I appreciate your time.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Except Friday, Wicked Radio and the audio podcast listeners wherever
- 0:50Speaker 1: you get those platforms. Everywhere else lives on as a replay.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Let's get right to it. Sorry to do this to you,
- 0:56Speaker 1: but I actually do think it's important, and I know
- 0:57Speaker 1: I get the argument. I'm a little bit more in
- 1:01Speaker 1: tune to this because I've told you many times I
- 1:03Speaker 1: have a daughter that lives in New York City. Well,
- 1:04Speaker 1: she goes to school in New York City, and that's
- 1:06Speaker 1: kind of relevant to the story. So she still has
- 1:10Speaker 1: that college life where she's kind of like semi protected.
- 1:13Speaker 1: So she's not she don't bear the full brunt of
- 1:15Speaker 1: what people who live there have to deal with. Right
- 1:18Speaker 1: but as we know, and now it's up, I think
- 1:20Speaker 1: how she has it at over eighty five percent probability
- 1:23Speaker 1: odds that this Zamdani guy, Mom, Donnie excuse me, I
- 1:28Speaker 1: keep getting his name wrong, is going to win. He's
- 1:32Speaker 1: a I got to explain this to you. He's a
- 1:33Speaker 1: full on communist. This may mean bad things for that city.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Here's the other thing you may not care about. You're thinking, well,
- 1:39Speaker 1: I live somewhere I escape New York, or I live
- 1:42Speaker 1: somewhere where else in the country, and effect me let
- 1:44Speaker 1: him suffer. They voted for this. I get it. I
- 1:46Speaker 1: understand your I understand your your temperament. But it is
- 1:50Speaker 1: our biggest American city. It's the media capital of really
- 1:54Speaker 1: the world. Unfortunately, a lot of things that happen in
- 1:58Speaker 1: New York City do to trickle downstream to the rest
- 2:01Speaker 1: of us, whether or not you have somebody that lives
- 2:03Speaker 1: there or not, like I do. So it is important
- 2:06Speaker 1: what happens, which is why I'm sorry to start off
- 2:09Speaker 1: the show today with this, but it's important to kind
- 2:12Speaker 1: of expose them on this. So Mam Donnie goes on
- 2:16Speaker 1: the View yesterday and I think yesterday I called them
- 2:21Speaker 1: the dumbest people on TV, and I believe that. But
- 2:23Speaker 1: there's something more to this though, yes it's them. You'll
- 2:28Speaker 1: see later on them reading direct copy points from I
- 2:32Speaker 1: think you know who gave it to them, the DNZ
- 2:35Speaker 1: on what to ask this guy what to talk about
- 2:37Speaker 1: with the shutdown. But listen to how they reframe what
- 2:40Speaker 1: this guy's all about just yesterday. I know it's not
- 2:42Speaker 1: the most pleasant thing to listen to or to watch,
- 2:44Speaker 1: but I think it's important for clarification. Here you go
- 2:47Speaker 1: quickly tick through all the things that Trump said about
- 2:49Speaker 1: here about you. I'm let's get that out of the
- 2:50Speaker 1: way right.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Number one, he's attacking you as a communist, are.
- 2:54Speaker 1: You No, I'm a democratic socialist. That means I believe
- 2:56Speaker 1: in dignity for all people. He knows more than that. Yeah,
- 3:02Speaker 1: I think you're not a communist. Okay, Oh no, I'm not. No,
- 3:06Speaker 1: I'm just a communist. Light that's what I am. So
- 3:09Speaker 1: that's a bit of a strong statement. I get it.
- 3:11Speaker 1: So I would have to back that up, and that's
- 3:12Speaker 1: what I was researching. Here. Let's go through some we've
- 3:14Speaker 1: all heard anecdotal stories about this guy so far, and
- 3:18Speaker 1: let me get this out of the way first, because
- 3:19Speaker 1: it needs to be said. He's very good on television.
- 3:24Speaker 1: He just saw there. He's a charismatic guy. He's very
- 3:26Speaker 1: well spoken. He does these quick little like almost like
- 3:31Speaker 1: street campaign videos where he's just walking and talking, and
- 3:33Speaker 1: you know, he's a great communicator. I mean, let's give
- 3:36Speaker 1: credit where it's due. He just is. He's attractive, he's
- 3:40Speaker 1: well spoken, he's charismatic. He's also persuasive, and maybe that's
- 3:44Speaker 1: the most important thing, because you don't reach these folks
- 3:47Speaker 1: with an eighty five to eighty six percent approval rate.
- 3:50Speaker 1: He's probably going to be there, and this is why
- 3:52Speaker 1: it affects the rest of us, right, So this is
- 3:55Speaker 1: why we're gonna look it up. I'm not none of
- 3:57Speaker 1: those things are true. I'm not a communist. I'm not Okay, fine,
- 4:01Speaker 1: let's use his definition. Maybe he's not, but this is
- 4:04Speaker 1: some of the most radical things that have ever been proposed,
- 4:08Speaker 1: whether or not they even come into place in that
- 4:10Speaker 1: particular city. Some of the most radical. Let's just pick
- 4:13Speaker 1: him out some things that even the New York Times
- 4:15Speaker 1: have pointed out economically unfeasible and harmful. What kinds of
- 4:21Speaker 1: things city run grocery stores? Uh? Okay, rent freezes for redistricting,
- 4:29Speaker 1: housing supply, harder for younger residents to find affordable home.
- 4:32Speaker 1: So this is why this is so attractive to them.
- 4:35Speaker 1: The government runs stores, the New York Times says would
- 4:37Speaker 1: falter due to the public sector's weakness and retail What
- 4:42Speaker 1: else does the guy stand for? Well, he's also been accused,
- 4:46Speaker 1: and I think credibly, of being anti Semitic. Now not
- 4:50Speaker 1: just coming from me, but this is also coming from
- 4:54Speaker 1: some Jewish representatives, like Representative Dan Goldman. He's a Democrat
- 4:57Speaker 1: express some big concerns. This is also a guy you
- 5:00Speaker 1: might have heard this one who has quoted saying we
- 5:02Speaker 1: should globalize the Antifada, and whether or not you know
- 5:05Speaker 1: what that means, it's not good for Jewish people. And
- 5:07Speaker 1: I will say the view aired this on Rashishana. Take
- 5:11Speaker 1: that for what it's worth for, you know, by Jewish
- 5:13Speaker 1: friends or Jewish Democrats who want to vote for that.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Here's some more very strong for LGBTQ rights, as you
- 5:19Speaker 1: can imagine in a big blue city, but establishing New
- 5:22Speaker 1: York City as a sanctuary city with an office of
- 5:24Speaker 1: LGBTQ plus tiaffairs, housing, employment, and health support that costs money.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Immigration fierce critic of ICE collaboration under Mayor Adams and
- 5:35Speaker 1: wants to raise a lot of money having to have
- 5:36Speaker 1: funding for being a sanctuary city into beefing it up
- 5:41Speaker 1: even more for illegal immigrants. Support cease fire, ending occupation
- 5:45Speaker 1: of Israel for Palestine. Of course, police accountability. Doesn't that
- 5:49Speaker 1: just sound like defunding the police backed impeach Cuomo over
- 5:54Speaker 1: misconduct and nursing home scandals. Can't blame them on that.
- 5:57Speaker 1: One pushes for repeal qualified immunity and end separate laws
- 6:02Speaker 1: for separate people. What that means is you can prosecute
- 6:05Speaker 1: cops for doing their jobs. But that didn't stop the ladies,
- 6:08Speaker 1: those brain trust members of the View for going on
- 6:11Speaker 1: in promoting this guy. Now, why because they're taking their
- 6:14Speaker 1: direct copy points from the Democrat Party. I would hate
- 6:18Speaker 1: a show and criticize the show if some did tend
- 6:20Speaker 1: their talk copy points from the Republican Party. And what
- 6:24Speaker 1: you're thinking right now is, oh, that's exactly what Fox
- 6:26Speaker 1: does with the five. No, they really don't. They happen
- 6:28Speaker 1: to know that for a fact, they agree with most
- 6:31Speaker 1: of what the Republicans are saying, but they're not told
- 6:33Speaker 1: directly with copy points what to say on their programs, which,
- 6:37Speaker 1: as we know now is exactly what happens with Fallon
- 6:40Speaker 1: and Kimmel and Colbert. It's exactly what they do, which
- 6:43Speaker 1: is why people push back against it, and which is why,
- 6:45Speaker 1: by the way, their ratings are in the Toil. Now
- 6:47Speaker 1: you think I'm making that up about them reading direct
- 6:49Speaker 1: copy points from one particular political party. Later on, in
- 6:53Speaker 1: that very same show, you've got Whoopee Goldberd doing exactly
- 6:56Speaker 1: that talking about the government shutdown. I know, apologize it's
- 7:00Speaker 1: a little bit too much of the view to talk
- 7:02Speaker 1: about in fact, two days in a row, My bad,
- 7:06Speaker 1: but it makes a point. It just so happens that
- 7:08Speaker 1: these two clips from the View kind of illustrate exactly
- 7:13Speaker 1: what we're talking about. Now. Usually they put it on
- 7:15Speaker 1: a teleprompter. Usually they would just brief them ahead of
- 7:18Speaker 1: time and make it three quick little points. Usually, or
- 7:21Speaker 1: they want to get propaganda off to one of their
- 7:23Speaker 1: favorite TV outlets, they would just tell them one main
- 7:27Speaker 1: point we want to get across. It would really like
- 7:29Speaker 1: you to do this, right Not in this case. Apparently
- 7:32Speaker 1: the government shutdown is becoming such a toxic issue for Democrats.
- 7:39Speaker 1: They literally they literally wrote out their talking points, of
- 7:43Speaker 1: their propaganda points for Whoopy Goldberg to read. You don't
- 7:47Speaker 1: believe me, here's your evidence?
- 7:48Speaker 2: Yeah so, and we want to just say it one
- 7:51Speaker 2: more time. The administration is claiming this is about Democrats
- 7:54Speaker 2: wanting to give healthcare to undocumented people. This is not true.
- 8:01Speaker 2: The Democrats want federal subsidies to continue to help American
- 8:05Speaker 2: citizens afford Obamacare policies and reverse cuts to Medicaid. Neither
- 8:12Speaker 2: of those changes, Neither one of them.
- 8:16Speaker 1: All Right, I personally can't listen to hear her anymore,
- 8:19Speaker 1: so I'm sure you can't either. But there you go.
- 8:21Speaker 1: I mean, if you were, if you're somebody watching on
- 8:23Speaker 1: the replayer live right now, we'll explain it for you
- 8:26Speaker 1: audio only listeners. She has a piece of paper literally
- 8:32Speaker 1: reading the copy points that the DNC told her to read.
- 8:36Speaker 1: They're not even trying to hide it anymore now. They're
- 8:38Speaker 1: doing that desperately because this thing is turning out very
- 8:40Speaker 1: badly for the Democrats. And you guys laughed at me.
- 8:43Speaker 1: I even saw it in your comments. You said, oh,
- 8:44Speaker 1: come on, you've gone too far this time. That's a
- 8:47Speaker 1: little much. I told you how effective this mocking meme
- 8:51Speaker 1: video would be of Hakeem Jeffreys in the sombrero, and
- 8:55Speaker 1: they were all upset about it. Sit it next to
- 8:57Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer and Trump reposted it and had Mexican music
- 9:00Speaker 1: in the background. I told you how effective that would
- 9:02Speaker 1: be millions, tens of millions of hits, and it got
- 9:05Speaker 1: the point across that that's what this bill is about.
- 9:08Speaker 1: That's when it turned that's why they're getting so upset
- 9:11Speaker 1: about this. So what do you do to more shows
- 9:13Speaker 1: to try to explain their point? And it's getting worse
- 9:15Speaker 1: and worse for them, because you've even got Jake Tapper
- 9:18Speaker 1: credit where it's due on CNN saying that's not factually correct.
- 9:24Speaker 1: This is a little bit long, but this is one
- 9:25Speaker 1: of the most damaging things that's ever happened to them
- 9:28Speaker 1: in immediate Donald Trump blest it as well.
- 9:31Speaker 3: So let me ask you about a provision that the
- 9:32Speaker 3: Republicans are talking about quite a bit. I know you
- 9:34Speaker 3: want to talk about and Democrats want to talk about
- 9:36Speaker 3: extending the Obamacare subsidies which expire at the end of
- 9:39Speaker 3: twenty twenty five. But they talk about the provisions and
- 9:42Speaker 3: it's right here, Subtitle E. And this has to do
- 9:45Speaker 3: with the repeal of healthcare subtitle changes and specifically what
- 9:48Speaker 3: it is they they're how they characterized characterize it as
- 9:52Speaker 3: you want to give health insurance to undocumented immigrants. I
- 9:56Speaker 3: understand that's not really an accurate depiction. But what it
- 9:59Speaker 3: does do is it's a lie.
- 10:01Speaker 1: It's a lie.
- 10:02Speaker 3: But what you support does bring back funding for emergency
- 10:07Speaker 3: medicaid to hospitals, some of which does pay for undocumented
- 10:11Speaker 3: immigrants and people who don't.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Know, okay, even people who are on the fence. And
- 10:15Speaker 1: again this is one of those issues complicated by design.
- 10:17Speaker 1: People are like, I don't know, what does it mean.
- 10:20Speaker 1: I'm just trying to get, you know, work my job
- 10:22Speaker 1: and raise my kids. Once Democrats and again remember that
- 10:25Speaker 1: was on CNN. Once they heard that and they said,
- 10:26Speaker 1: oh wait, a minute. Okay, it does actually provide for
- 10:30Speaker 1: so it is healthcare for illegal immigrants. They would just
- 10:34Speaker 1: have to go to a hospital and get their coverage
- 10:35Speaker 1: paid for it, which, by the way, our taxpayer money
- 10:37Speaker 1: pays for this is not going well for them. This
- 10:41Speaker 1: is why they're all over the media trying to defend
- 10:43Speaker 1: this thing. And by the way, the continuing resolution that
- 10:45Speaker 1: the guys on the Republican team wanted to push through,
- 10:48Speaker 1: it's the same Biden era budget. They just want to
- 10:51Speaker 1: keep the government going while they're working on this thing. Boy,
- 10:54Speaker 1: they losing this argument. But speaking by the way, this
- 10:59Speaker 1: is apparently happening now, this is another thing the media
- 11:02Speaker 1: is all upset about. I guess in the media briefing room,
- 11:04Speaker 1: in the White House press room, they're showing sorry, they're
- 11:09Speaker 1: showing the Hakeem Jeffreys video of him in the sombrero,
- 11:14Speaker 1: the AI image on like a loop at the White
- 11:17Speaker 1: House dirty pool.
- 11:18Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Absolutely, but that's how you know, so how you know
- 11:21Speaker 1: how effective this thing has been. All right, let's move
- 11:23Speaker 1: on to something else as we get through all that crap.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Might have seen this happening too, all right, Why every
- 11:29Speaker 1: time I open my phone or people talking about canceling Netflix.
- 11:33Speaker 1: The heck is going on here? Well, this all started,
- 11:37Speaker 1: didn't start, but I think it really kicked up a
- 11:40Speaker 1: few notches when Elon Musk with his how many X
- 11:43Speaker 1: followers does he it's a two hundred something X follower.
- 11:46Speaker 1: I don't know what it is, what's up to? Maybe
- 11:47Speaker 1: it's two hundred and twenty million followers now, which makes
- 11:50Speaker 1: sense when you own the company. I mean, Elon owns
- 11:53Speaker 1: X now. But he has been on a rampage since
- 11:56Speaker 1: I think it started Monday to cancel Netflix. So you
- 12:01Speaker 1: know what happens then when you have that kind of
- 12:02Speaker 1: a platform, it goes bananas. And it's one of the
- 12:06Speaker 1: top trending things in the country right now, and it's
- 12:08Speaker 1: made its way into others, even made its way into
- 12:10Speaker 1: some mainstream news stories like what is this all about?
- 12:13Speaker 1: What's happening? Why are people canceling Netflix? This is what
- 12:16Speaker 1: it's all about. Elon was incredibly upset about some posts
- 12:20Speaker 1: that were sent to him by some conservative accounts about
- 12:24Speaker 1: some programming that was made for kids on Netflix. Specifically
- 12:29Speaker 1: one show, an animated series called dead Ends Paranormal Park.
- 12:34Speaker 1: It's geared for kids seven and up. It features Barney
- 12:39Speaker 1: who's a teenage protagonist, the hero who is gay and
- 12:41Speaker 1: transgender coming out in one scene, I think I dug
- 12:45Speaker 1: up the scene you're talking about, And actually there's a
- 12:47Speaker 1: clip in there that shows how the Netflix stock has
- 12:49Speaker 1: taken a dive, which is actually true. This was the
- 12:52Speaker 1: thing that raised his ire. Then of course, you know
- 12:54Speaker 1: what happens that people dig in and they start to
- 12:55Speaker 1: look at other stuff, and they found a treasure trove
- 12:58Speaker 1: of very questionable if you're a parent, because most parents
- 13:02Speaker 1: can't monitor everything. You try your best. Right. I'm a
- 13:05Speaker 1: parent too, I had kids that age. At one point,
- 13:07Speaker 1: you put on a program, you read the description, you
- 13:09Speaker 1: try to even look online, and you say, is there
- 13:11Speaker 1: anything here I want to keep my kids away from.
- 13:12Speaker 1: If you don't see anything at first, you're like, fine,
- 13:14Speaker 1: sit there, watch it. I'll make your school lunch. This
- 13:17Speaker 1: is the one where Elon said. This is his direct
- 13:21Speaker 1: quote as this all started. He said, this is not right.
- 13:24Speaker 1: It's not the park. It's it's me. I'm trans normal,
- 13:30Speaker 1: and everyone at school knows, and everyone at home knows,
- 13:33Speaker 1: and being here it's like a whole new place, all right.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Whether you I think this is so close to Elon
- 13:42Speaker 1: because he does have a trans kid and he thinks
- 13:45Speaker 1: that was done, you know, underhanded kind of way. It's
- 13:48Speaker 1: got enough kids to like, you know, farm his own
- 13:49Speaker 1: baseball team. But whatever, So that happened there. So it's
- 13:52Speaker 1: an issue very close to him. But the thing is,
- 13:56Speaker 1: is this the same thing as like a bud light treatment?
- 13:59Speaker 1: Is this what they did to like Disney Plus? I
- 14:01Speaker 1: think the closer I think the closer example is what
- 14:04Speaker 1: happened with Disney Plus, because yes, of course you had
- 14:07Speaker 1: people canceling their subscriptions to Disney Plus above and beyond
- 14:10Speaker 1: the price, whatever it was was, they didn't like a
- 14:12Speaker 1: lot of questionable programming. Well what happened. It may slip
- 14:16Speaker 1: back again someday, but it is true once that happened,
- 14:19Speaker 1: Disney did pull back the curtain quite a bit and
- 14:22Speaker 1: show you what a lot of this stuff was and
- 14:24Speaker 1: they got rid of a lot of that quote unquote
- 14:26Speaker 1: questionable programming. That's a fact that actually did happen. Will
- 14:31Speaker 1: this be the same, It's probably the most likely outcome.
- 14:33Speaker 1: What's gonna happen with Netflix. I didn't cancel it yet.
- 14:37Speaker 1: It takes me a long time to go into canceling
- 14:40Speaker 1: any subscription on anything unless it's just overtly bad, right.
- 14:44Speaker 1: I think it's better to just do your best as
- 14:46Speaker 1: a parent to monitor this kind of stuff. And it's
- 14:48Speaker 1: a lot of stuff on Netflix I actually like. But
- 14:51Speaker 1: the pushback, I'll just tell you personally, I don't mind it.
- 14:53Speaker 1: This is how things get exposed. This is how you
- 14:56Speaker 1: find out about things. Now, now you raised, you asked
- 14:58Speaker 1: the question like everybody wouldn't. I asked it too. Or
- 15:01Speaker 1: was it intentional? Is it some kind of a is
- 15:04Speaker 1: it some kind of a propaganda's movement to try to,
- 15:07Speaker 1: you know, program kids that's been accused of. I'm not
- 15:11Speaker 1: going that far, but I have to tell you, and
- 15:14Speaker 1: I will tell you honestly that a lot of people
- 15:15Speaker 1: have brought up with a lot of Netflix programming. Okay,
- 15:19Speaker 1: that's one of the shows that started the whole controversy.
- 15:21Speaker 1: You dig into a lot of that in their kids programming. Wow,
- 15:26Speaker 1: it's a lot different than the cartoons you and I
- 15:28Speaker 1: probably grew up with. I mean, I'm gen X. I
- 15:31Speaker 1: had Looney Tunes and super Friends and Scooby and Bugs Bunny,
- 15:37Speaker 1: and it was all cool and it was kind of
- 15:39Speaker 1: like an escape from the real world. Why are they
- 15:41Speaker 1: even bringing into kids programming any of these issues? Why
- 15:46Speaker 1: why ask yourself why they would even want to whether
- 15:49Speaker 1: or not I even believe it's any kind of a conspiracy.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Why do you feel this need the creators and the
- 15:55Speaker 1: producers of this stuff, and then Netflix itself to make
- 15:57Speaker 1: the executive decision to put this out there. Why does
- 16:01Speaker 1: a kid I'll go by their age range seven plus
- 16:04Speaker 1: even need to be confronted with this? Right now? Well,
- 16:07Speaker 1: it's real issues they face in the real world. You
- 16:09Speaker 1: know what. They got enough issues in the real world. Okay,
- 16:13Speaker 1: they face it every day walking to school, getting to school,
- 16:16Speaker 1: coming home from school. They don't need it in their
- 16:19Speaker 1: kids programming, regardless of how you feel about the trans issue.
- 16:24Speaker 1: Separated for a second and look at it that way.
- 16:26Speaker 1: Why do kids even need to be confronted with this? Why?
- 16:29Speaker 1: And I am sure I didn't look at it this part,
- 16:31Speaker 1: but I'm sure the description for a parent on Netflix
- 16:33Speaker 1: on these shows simply says family friendly kids programming. Whatever.
- 16:38Speaker 1: So you're a parent who's busy, you put it on.
- 16:41Speaker 1: You're like, fine, watch that doesn't seem too harmful. You're
- 16:44Speaker 1: not sitting there watching every little thing like the kid
- 16:47Speaker 1: is so on that I don't blame them, and I
- 16:50Speaker 1: will tell you you dig more into this, there is
- 16:52Speaker 1: a just my brief overview of this because I wasn't
- 16:55Speaker 1: aware of this at all. My kids are out of
- 16:57Speaker 1: that age. Maybe yours are too. There's a lot of
- 17:01Speaker 1: programming like that, like an inordinate amount of that kind
- 17:05Speaker 1: of content on there that probably, I would bet you
- 17:08Speaker 1: even the Netflix executives aren't aware of because how is
- 17:11Speaker 1: it pitched to them? Right? Do you think they're going
- 17:14Speaker 1: to go into a programming meeting and say, we have
- 17:16Speaker 1: a new kids cartoon that's going to promote a trans
- 17:22Speaker 1: agenda for its audience seven plus. No, this is how
- 17:25Speaker 1: they pitch it. They say, here's a promo reel. We
- 17:28Speaker 1: have this, it's kid friendly, it's twenty minutes, it'll fill
- 17:31Speaker 1: up programming time, it's seven plus, and kids love it.
- 17:33Speaker 1: And our testing so far, network executive goes great, green
- 17:37Speaker 1: lighted go. That's about the extent of it, really, truly,
- 17:41Speaker 1: although let me throw this into the mix too. One
- 17:43Speaker 1: more thing to consider. So as this has developed since
- 17:46Speaker 1: early on in the week, Elon and probably people researching
- 17:50Speaker 1: this stuff and getting through to Elon, almost every executive
- 17:55Speaker 1: employee at the Netflix company in the network has not
- 17:59Speaker 1: only not only voted Democrat, but they have contributed a
- 18:04Speaker 1: lot to far left causes. Make it that what you will.
- 18:08Speaker 1: I'm just pointing out what I have found as well
- 18:09Speaker 1: on net. So you have to make your own decision.
- 18:11Speaker 1: Nobody can tell you how to live your life, or
- 18:13Speaker 1: what to show your kids or what in favor of
- 18:15Speaker 1: whether or not to cancel Netflix, but do consider the source.
- 18:19Speaker 1: The best balance would be what I think we're starting
- 18:22Speaker 1: to see with Disney, they felt they saw the pushback
- 18:26Speaker 1: and the loss of money and the loss of evaluation,
- 18:32Speaker 1: and they did calm that down a little bit. Maybe
- 18:34Speaker 1: that'll be the same with Network because most of this
- 18:35Speaker 1: stuff we're just not aware of. Maybe that'll be the case.
- 18:38Speaker 1: I'm not too sure, but one thing's for sure. That's
- 18:42Speaker 1: the reason why you're seeing this everywhere these days. If
- 18:44Speaker 1: you go online at all, on cancel Netflix, and I
- 18:47Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna stop till something happens. So we'll see,
- 18:52Speaker 1: all right, Is it Thursday? Is it Friday? Junior? That
- 18:54Speaker 1: means we got a weekend right around the corner. It's
- 18:56Speaker 1: going to be awesome. So make it awesome. And again,
- 19:00Speaker 1: take this away from clips like the View, which I
- 19:03Speaker 1: showed way too many times today. The reason why you're
- 19:05Speaker 1: seeing so many people doing interviews politicians let's just call them,
- 19:10Speaker 1: let's just call it what it is everywhere in the
- 19:13Speaker 1: media on both sides now is because this government shutdown thing.
- 19:18Speaker 1: They're losing the argument on this. It's not going well
- 19:21Speaker 1: at all for them. And I promise, let's hope tomorrow
- 19:24Speaker 1: we don't have to play any clips from the View.
- 19:26Speaker 1: That would make the weekend even better. They gonna wake
- 19:28Speaker 1: it awesome Thursday. Next to finding the podcast on replay
