Speaker 1 (00:00):
Your arms and shout happen. Yeah, it's money time.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
This is the Bloomberg Money Minutes on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
I already eight oh nine and Monica Rix with us
from the Bloomberg newsroom. Monica, it looks like Netflix just
landed a historic deal in Hollywood.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Tell me about it.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Yeah, this is our breaking big story of the day.
Netflix has agreed to buy Warner Brothers Discovery Now in
a seventy two billion dollar cash in stock deal, joining
the world's biggest streaming service with one of Hollywood's oldest
and most revered studios.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Now.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Prior to the closing of this sale, which could happen
over the next twelve to eighteen months, Warner Brothers will
complete the planned spinoff of its cable channels that includes.
Speaker 5 (00:43):
CNN, TBS, TNT.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
But Netflix would own HBO and Warner Brothers studio assets,
which includes its massive film and TV archives. So we're
talking everything from Friends to Harry Potter.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Oh my, seventy two billion is what you said. Yep,
that's the TI equity value. It's a huge deal. Yeah, Netflix,
they have every dollar ever invented.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
It seems AI may be making travel agents better.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Did I read that right. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
A recent report from Adobe for Business shows it a
two thousand percent growth in AI driven traffic to travel
websites like Expedia, Google, Kayak.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
That's just this year alone.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Expedia even found that travelers are using AI to book
and plan their trips so big. With chat GBT, you
could say, hey, plan my trip to Mexico City. It'll
give you price packages, restaurant and activity suggestions. A lot
of travel agencies are apparently taking advantage of it.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Alrighty, what do you see there in the markets?
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Well, market futures are pushing towards a higher open today,
Dow futures up forty three points and NEZEC futures up
eighty four. SMP futures are also up thirteen points. Right
now from Bloomberg, I'm Monica Rix on news radio seven
hundred WLW.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Thank you so much, Monica.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
It's about eight eleven on Friday on seven hundred WLW.
Steve Hawkins in four, Tom Brennaman, this is the time
we get to talk TV with our good friend Matt Raush.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Good morning, Matt. How you doing there?
Speaker 6 (02:08):
I'm okay, and.
Speaker 7 (02:09):
You're kind of reeling as everyone else is. From the
idea that Netflix is now such a powerful presence in
the entertainment.
Speaker 6 (02:16):
World that it is now swallowing one.
Speaker 7 (02:18):
Of the great studios of in history with So Netflix
will now basically be Netflix Warner Brothers, which is just crazy.
I never quite got my head around the fact that
Discovery was part of Warner Brothers, but now.
Speaker 6 (02:32):
That's going to be separated from it.
Speaker 7 (02:34):
So those cable channels, the one the one channel that
is on in all of this. Nobody's mentioned yet that
its like had better stay like what it is now,
and no matter who's controlling, it's got to stay the
same as Turner Classic Movies, and that might be split
off in its own as well. But like that that
little channel, when I stopped writing about actual television, that's
where I'm going to live most of my life. I
think I love Turner Classic movies. They do such great stuff.
(02:56):
And it also you know, but that's part of the
library as well. Yeah, that the Netflix is such a
as such a force that they have now they're now
you know, true Hollywood, and it's a bit crazy. I
don't think anybody ever saw that coming when they began.
But when you think about the amount of product that
Netflix itself produces it kind of dwarfs what even HBO does.
(03:18):
But at the same time they're the two major players.
Like when the Emmys come around, most of the shows
that get nominated are from HBO and and sometimes Netflix,
So now they're part of the same company.
Speaker 6 (03:28):
That's just kind of that's wild.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Yeah, and they got a big one tonight in Netflix.
It's actually your lead story before we even knew what
was going to happen. George Clooney's j Kelly movie.
Speaker 7 (03:41):
Yeah, and it's been limited run in theaters. And the
thing also that's interesting about Netflix is that the movie
industry looks askance at Netflix because they only release their
movies very very limited in in in theaters, but that
some of these movies they see they have, you know,
Oscar Oscar, I guess ambitions, and this would be one
(04:01):
of them. So as of today, you can see George Clooney,
who I know is a local favorite, playing Jay Kelly,
which is the name of a movie star. So George
Clooney is playing a very handsome movie star, which is
a real stretch for him.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
But in this movie from Noah.
Speaker 7 (04:15):
Bomback, it is sort of a reflective movie where he's
getting a career tribute in Italy, and he thinks this
is the chance to get his family together because he
has sort of put everything else aside to chase stardom
for most of his life, and so as he's looking
back on his life through this movie, there's a bit
of a melancholy, bittersweet nature to all of this. Adam
Sandler is also getting Oscar Buzz who plays his manager
(04:38):
who has been so loyal to him over the years,
but then other things happen, and I thought I was
also really impressed by Stacy Keach who plays his dad,
his very boysterous dad who comes along for the ride.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
For a bit. It's a really nice movie.
Speaker 7 (04:51):
But boy, George Clooney is good in this and his
sort of catchphrase here is can I have another one?
Speaker 6 (04:56):
Like to can I have another take?
Speaker 7 (04:58):
And his why idea here is, boy, if I could
my wife over like I can do takes over in
the movies, that would be really great, but of course
you can't. So it is a great role for George Clooney.
So if you're a fan of his, that's on Netflix
as of now.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
And it's called Ja Kelly. Another must see on Here
We Go. It must be Netflix Friday. Here The New
Yorker at one hundred.
Speaker 7 (05:17):
Tell me about this, well, if you are all aware
of The New Yorker, what an influential magazine that has
been over the years, whether you love the cartoons or
the fiction, but of course their long term stories that
you think, oh, I'll never read this whole thing, but
sometimes they become major books. It sort of charged the
whole history of this magazine. Even as you go behind
the scenes of the magazine as they're preparing their one
(05:39):
hundredth anniversary issue, which was out earlier this year, but
you think about they did such bold things as the
book that became Hiroshima that was first published in The
New Yorker, Silent Spring from Nrachel Carson that was first
published in the New Yorker. Even in Cold Blood from
Truman Capoti was first published in The New Yorker, which
sort of fused fictional story telling with actual factual material.
(06:03):
But then again, a lot of people get it, and
the first thing they do is they turn to those
cartoons which have become so iconic. And so David Remnick,
the new editor, the current editor of The New Yorker,
walks us through things like the fact checkers, and how
they pick the covers, how they pick the cartoons, and
as they're preparing for this historic publication. And there really
is no magazine quite like it. So if you're a
journalism fan, this is a really great documentary. And again,
(06:25):
like you said, yeah, this is one day in the
life of Netflix. They have a George Clooney movie, they
have a major documentary, and next Thursday and Friday there's
gonna be a whole nother wave of shows. They are
They're in the volume business and that is how Netflix works.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
All right, this was back from the dead.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I'm not sure the Spartacus saying I don't remember this one.
Tell us about this it's coming back?
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Well it is.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
You know, Spartacus hasn't been on the air for about
ten years. This is a big hit show for spar
for Stars where it was a.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
Very, very bloody, very a lot of very graphics.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
Actually, I mean this show is really not for the squeamish,
this thing. But it's said in the world of Gladiators
in Ancient Rome, but they killed off Spartacus throughout the thing,
be cause if you know the story, Spartacus does die.
He leads a slave rebellion, but he ultimately is crucified
and killed. But one of the other characters who died
along the way was a person called Asher, and Asher
(07:22):
was a slave turned gladiator turned trader. He turned against
his fellow slaves and so he's kind of a bad
guy here and he was killed quite memorably in one
of the spinoffs called Spartacus Vengeance. But now they decided
to bring him back from the dead, and now this
new show called Spartacus House of Asher brings Spartacus franchise
back to life. There is no Spartacus, it's in the
(07:43):
world of Spartacus, but it's about how Asher now takes
over the gladiator school and he brings a female gladiator
to sort of like shake everything up, which has never
happened before in the world of this show. So it's
kind of like the way that Showtime brought Dexter back
from the dead, and Dexter was actually the most recent
series was called Dexter Resurrection. Well, now they've resurrected Asher
over on Stars and if you're a fan of Spartacus,
(08:05):
I've seen a few episodes. Yeah, it's just as bloody
as ever. So if you want to see Spartacus again.
That again, two episodes premiere tonight. And you like with
any of these franchisor with an now caol intellectual property,
You're not dead until the next spinoff.

Netflix is set to acquire Warner Brothers Discovery in a
historic deal that would combine the streaming giant with one
of the most storied and most valuable studios in Hollywood.
Warner Brothers shareholders would get twenty seven dollars and seventy
five cents a share in cash and stock in Netflix.
That puts the equity value of the deal at seventy
two billion dollars. Warner Brothers still plans to split the
(10:46):
company next summer and spin off a lot of its
cable channels, but Netflix would own HBO and Warner's huge
film and TV archive. Amazon stocks down slightly this morning

And Little Miami they've started a mug club membership.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
What does that mean? What does it get me?
Speaker 12 (23:57):
So a lot of these mug clubs that are a
few of the Berry's doing are a great way to
you know, tie yourself to the brewery and you get
discounts you get to usually like here, you'll get a
twenty ounce mud poor for the price of a pint,
and they'll have exclusive parties, you get discounts on merchandise,
and these are just a great way to really tie
yourself to some of these local breweries. And you know,
(24:19):
spending some money in these local places is going to
keep them keep them going. So it's important to, you know,
spend some money locally and make it stay local.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
And Danny says, we got time for one more High
Grain Brewing along with Hawksworth next Friday.
Speaker 12 (24:34):
What are they doing the next Friday? They're doing a
blood drive. And this time of the year, with all
the interaction with the parties and other things and stuff,
the blood banks always get low in inventory, and so
High Grains decided to do a blood drive next Friday
at their their Brentwood Bowl location.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
So if you get a chance to.
Speaker 12 (24:55):
Get over there and give some blood, that's very well
needed time of year.

This is the Bloomberg Money Minutes on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
I already eight oh nine and Monica Rix with us
from the Bloomberg newsroom. Monica, it looks like Netflix just
landed a historic deal in Hollywood.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Tell me about it.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Yeah, this is our breaking big story of the day.
Netflix has agreed to buy Warner Brothers Discovery Now in
a seventy two billion dollar cash in stock deal, joining
the world's biggest streaming service with one of Hollywood's oldest
and most revered studios.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Now.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Prior to the closing of this sale, which could happen
over the next twelve to eighteen months, Warner Brothers will
complete the planned spinoff of its cable channels that includes.
Speaker 5 (00:43):
CNN, TBS, TNT.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
But Netflix would own HBO and Warner Brothers studio assets,
which includes its massive film and TV archives. So we're
talking everything from Friends to Harry Potter.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Oh my, seventy two billion is what you said. Yep,
that's the TI equity value. It's a huge deal. Yeah, Netflix,
they have every dollar ever invented.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
It seems AI may be making travel agents better.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Did I read that right. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
A recent report from Adobe for Business shows it a
two thousand percent growth in AI driven traffic to travel
websites like Expedia, Google, Kayak.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
That's just this year alone.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Expedia even found that travelers are using AI to book
and plan their trips so big. With chat GBT, you
could say, hey, plan my trip to Mexico City. It'll
give you price packages, restaurant and activity suggestions. A lot
of travel agencies are apparently taking advantage of it.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Alrighty, what do you see there in the markets?
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Well, market futures are pushing towards a higher open today,
Dow futures up forty three points and NEZEC futures up
eighty four. SMP futures are also up thirteen points. Right
now from Bloomberg, I'm Monica Rix on news radio seven
hundred WLW.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Thank you so much, Monica.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
It's about eight eleven on Friday on seven hundred WLW.
Steve Hawkins in four, Tom Brennaman, this is the time
we get to talk TV with our good friend Matt Raush.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Good morning, Matt. How you doing there?
Speaker 6 (02:08):
I'm okay, and.
Speaker 7 (02:09):
You're kind of reeling as everyone else is. From the
idea that Netflix is now such a powerful presence in
the entertainment.
Speaker 6 (02:16):
World that it is now swallowing one.
Speaker 7 (02:18):
Of the great studios of in history with So Netflix
will now basically be Netflix Warner Brothers, which is just crazy.
I never quite got my head around the fact that
Discovery was part of Warner Brothers, but now.
Speaker 6 (02:32):
That's going to be separated from it.
Speaker 7 (02:34):
So those cable channels, the one the one channel that
is on in all of this. Nobody's mentioned yet that
its like had better stay like what it is now,
and no matter who's controlling, it's got to stay the
same as Turner Classic Movies, and that might be split
off in its own as well. But like that that
little channel, when I stopped writing about actual television, that's
where I'm going to live most of my life. I
think I love Turner Classic movies. They do such great stuff.
(02:56):
And it also you know, but that's part of the
library as well. Yeah, that the Netflix is such a
as such a force that they have now they're now
you know, true Hollywood, and it's a bit crazy. I
don't think anybody ever saw that coming when they began.
But when you think about the amount of product that
Netflix itself produces it kind of dwarfs what even HBO does.
(03:18):
But at the same time they're the two major players.
Like when the Emmys come around, most of the shows
that get nominated are from HBO and and sometimes Netflix,
So now they're part of the same company.
Speaker 6 (03:28):
That's just kind of that's wild.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Yeah, and they got a big one tonight in Netflix.
It's actually your lead story before we even knew what
was going to happen. George Clooney's j Kelly movie.
Speaker 7 (03:41):
Yeah, and it's been limited run in theaters. And the
thing also that's interesting about Netflix is that the movie
industry looks askance at Netflix because they only release their
movies very very limited in in in theaters, but that
some of these movies they see they have, you know,
Oscar Oscar, I guess ambitions, and this would be one
(04:01):
of them. So as of today, you can see George Clooney,
who I know is a local favorite, playing Jay Kelly,
which is the name of a movie star. So George
Clooney is playing a very handsome movie star, which is
a real stretch for him.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
But in this movie from Noah.
Speaker 7 (04:15):
Bomback, it is sort of a reflective movie where he's
getting a career tribute in Italy, and he thinks this
is the chance to get his family together because he
has sort of put everything else aside to chase stardom
for most of his life, and so as he's looking
back on his life through this movie, there's a bit
of a melancholy, bittersweet nature to all of this. Adam
Sandler is also getting Oscar Buzz who plays his manager
(04:38):
who has been so loyal to him over the years,
but then other things happen, and I thought I was
also really impressed by Stacy Keach who plays his dad,
his very boysterous dad who comes along for the ride.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
For a bit. It's a really nice movie.
Speaker 7 (04:51):
But boy, George Clooney is good in this and his
sort of catchphrase here is can I have another one?
Speaker 6 (04:56):
Like to can I have another take?
Speaker 7 (04:58):
And his why idea here is, boy, if I could
my wife over like I can do takes over in
the movies, that would be really great, but of course
you can't. So it is a great role for George Clooney.
So if you're a fan of his, that's on Netflix
as of now.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
And it's called Ja Kelly. Another must see on Here
We Go. It must be Netflix Friday. Here The New
Yorker at one hundred.
Speaker 7 (05:17):
Tell me about this, well, if you are all aware
of The New Yorker, what an influential magazine that has
been over the years, whether you love the cartoons or
the fiction, but of course their long term stories that
you think, oh, I'll never read this whole thing, but
sometimes they become major books. It sort of charged the
whole history of this magazine. Even as you go behind
the scenes of the magazine as they're preparing their one
(05:39):
hundredth anniversary issue, which was out earlier this year, but
you think about they did such bold things as the
book that became Hiroshima that was first published in The
New Yorker, Silent Spring from Nrachel Carson that was first
published in the New Yorker. Even in Cold Blood from
Truman Capoti was first published in The New Yorker, which
sort of fused fictional story telling with actual factual material.
(06:03):
But then again, a lot of people get it, and
the first thing they do is they turn to those
cartoons which have become so iconic. And so David Remnick,
the new editor, the current editor of The New Yorker,
walks us through things like the fact checkers, and how
they pick the covers, how they pick the cartoons, and
as they're preparing for this historic publication. And there really
is no magazine quite like it. So if you're a
journalism fan, this is a really great documentary. And again,
(06:25):
like you said, yeah, this is one day in the
life of Netflix. They have a George Clooney movie, they
have a major documentary, and next Thursday and Friday there's
gonna be a whole nother wave of shows. They are
They're in the volume business and that is how Netflix works.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
All right, this was back from the dead.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I'm not sure the Spartacus saying I don't remember this one.
Tell us about this it's coming back?
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Well it is.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
You know, Spartacus hasn't been on the air for about
ten years. This is a big hit show for spar
for Stars where it was a.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
Very, very bloody, very a lot of very graphics.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
Actually, I mean this show is really not for the squeamish,
this thing. But it's said in the world of Gladiators
in Ancient Rome, but they killed off Spartacus throughout the thing,
be cause if you know the story, Spartacus does die.
He leads a slave rebellion, but he ultimately is crucified
and killed. But one of the other characters who died
along the way was a person called Asher, and Asher
(07:22):
was a slave turned gladiator turned trader. He turned against
his fellow slaves and so he's kind of a bad
guy here and he was killed quite memorably in one
of the spinoffs called Spartacus Vengeance. But now they decided
to bring him back from the dead, and now this
new show called Spartacus House of Asher brings Spartacus franchise
back to life. There is no Spartacus, it's in the
(07:43):
world of Spartacus, but it's about how Asher now takes
over the gladiator school and he brings a female gladiator
to sort of like shake everything up, which has never
happened before in the world of this show. So it's
kind of like the way that Showtime brought Dexter back
from the dead, and Dexter was actually the most recent
series was called Dexter Resurrection. Well, now they've resurrected Asher
over on Stars and if you're a fan of Spartacus,
(08:05):
I've seen a few episodes. Yeah, it's just as bloody
as ever. So if you want to see Spartacus again.
That again, two episodes premiere tonight. And you like with
any of these franchisor with an now caol intellectual property,
You're not dead until the next spinoff.

five cents a share in cash and stock in Netflix.
That puts the equity value of the deal at seventy
two billion dollars. Warner Brothers still plans to split the

company next summer and spin off a lot of its
cable channels, but Netflix would own HBO and Warner's huge
film and TV archive. Amazon stocks down slightly this morning

Speaker 1 (23:54):
What does that mean? What does it get me?
Speaker 12 (23:57):
So a lot of these mug clubs that are a
few of the Berry's doing are a great way to
you know, tie yourself to the brewery and you get
discounts you get to usually like here, you'll get a
twenty ounce mud poor for the price of a pint,
and they'll have exclusive parties, you get discounts on merchandise,
and these are just a great way to really tie
yourself to some of these local breweries. And you know,
(24:19):
spending some money in these local places is going to
keep them keep them going. So it's important to, you know,
spend some money locally and make it stay local.
Speaker 3 (24:29):

Grain Brewing along with Hawksworth next Friday.
Speaker 12 (24:34):
What are they doing the next Friday? They're doing a
blood drive. And this time of the year, with all
the interaction with the parties and other things and stuff,
the blood banks always get low in inventory, and so
High Grains decided to do a blood drive next Friday
at their their Brentwood Bowl location.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
So if you get a chance to.
Speaker 12 (24:55):
