Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, So Tanya has this story here that when
you go to a concert a lot of summer concerts happening,
do you spend more time watching the show or recording
it on your phone? Is there an artist making rules
about this?

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yes, Phoebe Bridgers. She's like an indie artist, and she
does announce a massive arena tour called the Lost Tour,
and she's making one thing very clear before you even
think about buying a ticket. Your phone is not invited.

to lock their phone into this yonder pouch when they

(00:33):
walk in. So the yonder pouch is basically this little
like locking case for your phone that you keep in
your pocket. You get to keep the phone with you,
but it just basically locks and then it'll unlock on
your way out of the Yeah, you can't put that
in your pocket once you have it in that yonder. Yes,
they're so big. I can put a purse and then
the purses are all like limited at these arenas. She's
have to be clear, she said, anyone is caught using

a phone or a smart watch or any device during
the show, they will be escorted out of the venue. No,
except she's fun. People are very torn on this, Like
some people are like, Okay, I like the idea, and
