Speaker 1 (00:00):
A couple of quick things to clean up on Luca.
(00:01):
He's making an appearance at a Dick's Sporting Goods right
now in Dallas, and he's going to be doing a
Q and A there, and he's debuting his new shoe,
which I believe is the Luca four Right. I saw that. Yeah,
follow Luca dung kicks. I think this is the name
of it. Right. Yeah, it's a good guy to follow, Blake,
good dude. But Luca marketing is in full power right now.
(00:25):
The Jordan brand's rolling out a bad Luca campaign and
there's these promo videos of him being on trial to
answer for his bad behavior. Uh, which, why would you
ever trade Luca? Well, there's rumors of bad behavior and
bad lifestyle or whatever, and I think they're addressing that
and leaning in. And he's on trial and he goes
up to the witness stand and he props his feet
up on the witness stand. He's rocking his new Lucas okay,
(00:47):
and there's people going, hey, he's bad. You gotta explain
for your bad behavior. And he's just chilling in his
badass shoes.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
So apparently this is based on something our buddy Jason
Gallagher did for Old Man the Three, and I guess
the you know Jordan Brand. People saw it and liked
it wow, and then kind of took it to that
next level. There's a there's a poster I sent you
that was taken right outside the arena last night. So
they're promoting it like it's a movie. So it's a
(01:15):
movie poster that So that's that's what Ben's talking about.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
I was wondering what that was.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, they blanketed that outside the arena last night like
they were promoting a movie.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Yeah, so the Luke of marketing machine is in full
power right now. And then there's a new Gatorade ad
where Luca is sitting on a bench looking at a
camera and just dribbling the ball and he's got his
game face. He's just looking directly at the camera. Have
you seen that one?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
No?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yes? With the Trader. So the Gatorade towel is fixed
on his neck to where the letters spell out Trader.
And so there's pretty much a message for whoever you
want to think it's for. Maybe it's for j Kidd,
maybe it's for Nico. I don't know. But he's just
dribbling the ball looking ahead and you can see the
word trader. Then he gets up and it says one
(02:03):
one journey fuels the next.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
This is not what anybody wants. This is not the
desired result. But honestly, this might end up being the
best thing that could have ever happened to Luke.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Yeah, right, will never those trajectories are no longer the same,
like whatever path he would have been on. He's in
an alternate universe now where he lost one hundred and
ten million dollars. But he's gonna murder everyone. Now he's
gonna murder everyone. They put a huge chip on his shoulder.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
We're gonna play audio coming up here in about twenty
five minutes or so of last night.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
That really puts it in perspective. But damn, what a story.
What a story? Kat? What are some of the jobs
that AI could eliminate? Okay, so there's a little thing here.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
A servant was sent out to US adults, but also
to AI experts, the normal average Joe's and Josephanes like us,
and then AI nerds.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
And what do they agree on?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Well, one thing they agreed on with some of the
jobs that are in danger over the next twenty years.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Cool, can I give you one. Sure copywriting didn't see
that one on there. Interesting, right, But truck drivers.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Truck drivers was on there? Yeah, really yeah, I actually
think truck drivers will be fine.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I would think so too.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Man, this sounds like the movie Maximum Overdrive with the
great Ace Kiss song who made who.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
I thought you were gonna say that Will Smith movie.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Now, those drones, if they start picking up at three
hundred feet above and zip lining down her front porch,
which you talked about yesterday, maybe that's a problem.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
But the idea that robots can just drive these eighteen
wheelers out on the highway and you don't need a
truck driver, dude.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Fort Worth is the one of the big testing grounds for.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
That right now, right now. Okay, I knew they had
it in Austin.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
But dangerous, it feels dangerous. Cashier is a number one.
Oh yeah, Okay, what's already is already Radio hosts not
on there, but journalists. So you know, in some ways we're.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Not well journalists that write our new podcast descriptions.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Oh yeah, that's pretty badass.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
That's why I put copywriters in there. Okay, yeah, the
same thing, because copywriters use a formula like you guys
have seen Five Hundred Days of Summer where he's a
greeting card writer. I mean there's like just a formula
and all that, and so they just go in and
look at everything that's pre existing and spit it out
in ten seconds.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
I also felt like a fake job then though, Yeah,
the movie came out. People sit around and write these
cards to Yeah. Uh, software engineers, of course, mental health therapists. Yes,
you don't pay for it.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
That's not good.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah, it's funny though, because.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
There they would basically just a I would go in
there and see responses that have been given before for
different kind of mental issues and spit.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
It back out. Unfortunately, it would indicate that nothing is
special and it's all formulaic.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Yeah, truck drivers, lawyers, what who can someone who's seen.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Every case Ben's point? I mean, I mean they're so
on big cases. There's people whose jobs with the law
firm are assigned to cut precedent and figure out ways
to make precedent work for your case.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
A I can do that in ten seconds. It can.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
It can examine every bit every precedent that's ever been
set and then spit it back out at you.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Factory workers, musicians, no, yeah, that new ac DC song slaps.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
They're fighting against that right, which they need to.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
All creatives are fighting against AI because again the problem
is that it's just going to be regurgitating what's already existed.
But I would argue that that's what entertainment business does. Anyways,
on that song, you shoot it.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
But we can't kill creativity like that.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
No, let's kill it.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
No thing that I would argue, though, I think all
songs are just basically unlocking a mathematical formula that's pre existing.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
It's just people that unlock it, right, No, that's by
the way. The other the other day, I had a
thought in my head that I heard that song Josie's
on a vacation far away?
Speaker 2 (05:55):
What is that?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
You know what song is that? It's the Outfield. It's
called Your Love. I had a thought in my mind.
I was like, this may be the best song ever.
It's incredible. Can you this is a homework assignment for
each person. It's hard to do, but can you determine
what is the greatest song of all time?
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Our opinion or just what every.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
One your opinion? You already have? What is it?
Speaker 4 (06:19):
All these things I have done with the killers?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
That's a terrible choice.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
It's actually a pretty good song.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
No, I know, it's just such a ridiculous thing to
say to somebody it's like their favorite, and you're like,
that's a terrible choice. You don't feel that way. I'd
say it's a great choice. Leave by Elton John. You
see him look at me when I said it's a
great choice. He looked right at me to see if
I was serious. I am serious.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Leave on many times, Belton John. I every time listened
to that song. Actually I don't like.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
It that much. That's your song. It's pretty incredible. You
just did the same thing I did to you to
him on a song.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
We should all just understand that. It's What a Full
Believes by the Doobie Brothers.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Yeah, pretty great.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
But is that song as good if it's not Michael
McDonald's like, what what if it was Steven Tyler singing it?
Speaker 3 (07:03):
In an alternate universe?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Right?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
There is somewhere, right.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I think there's ai probably somewhere that can we can
make Steven Tyler sing what a fool Believes.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
I don't like the future guys.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
All right, thank you, Kevin. Coming up next, the future
of this show is the Today Game. And it's happening gosh,
just in about four or five minutes. Don't miss it.
