I'm for the little guy, because I am the little guy.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yeah. Yeah, And I feel like the I mean, anyone that.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Knows the the the the I'm going after the man,
the mainly the rich, because the gap between the rich
and the rest of us is just growing wider and
wider and wider. And if you don't believe me, just
just read about say, I don't want to get too
into politics right now. And even though I'm saying that,
and I'm not getting into politics on that, I'll never
(01:25):
do politics on this. I won't I do laws, I
do I do you know, parking issues or being charged
too much? I won't get into right left, all right,
that stuff. Even though my dad wants me to send
your rant, I do what do you think me yesterday?
Speaker 1 (01:43):
What you ran about tomorrow? Looking forward? To make it
a tune in? You make it a tune in. And
then I told him what it was about. Well, why
do that?
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I'm not going to break down the whole right, So
my rant today you may have seen on Monday, I
think it was Monday.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
There Sunday.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
The NFL and ESPN have merged now the NFL network
and ESPN.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
So ESPN, but.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
That was Friday, last Wednesday, because remember we're at the
airport to me.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
So that was last week. The WWE thing was this
was a couple of days ago. So the NFL, the
NFL network was bought out by ESPN. But as part
of the deal. Now, so the NFL network all their
stuff now will be on ESPN and vice versa.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
But as part of.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
The deal, the NFL now owns ten percent of ESPN,
which I mean any journalistic integrity is now gone from
ESPN obviously because they can't at all say anything they
want about es about the NFL.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
They can't trust one of the owners company. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
It's it's it's kind of like, at this point like
someone needs to step in because it's getting ridiculous. ESPN,
they're getting too big. But that's not my point. My
point is I already pay between eight hundred sixteen hundred
dollars a football season.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I already pay that much.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Think about it because I have YouTube TV, I have
the NFL Sunday Ticket which is four hundred and twenty dollars,
and then you have to have Amazon, Peacock, Netflix, and.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Am I missing one Eddie? Am I missing one Eddie?
And missing.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
All those services each month because all those different games
to watch all those services. So if you want to
watch every game, you're paying between eight hundred and sixty
hundred dollars to watch the NFL for the year, for
the year, for four months.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
So now ESPN is saying, hey, guys, we're gonna have
an app. Because they they throw these apps as if
they're doing us the favor. They like esp even though
I already have YouTube TV, I already have ESPN. They're saying, hey, guys,
we're gonna make a ESPN direct to consumer app, and
(03:52):
this is gonna be everything ESPN Plus and that's gone
now they're getting rid of that. That's gonna be gone. Yeah,
so ESPN Plus is gonna be gone. It's gonna be
ESPN Directed Consumer. So you gave be able to watch
live ESPN plus everything they have plus games.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
On their app.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Okay, but the cool thing is if you have like
a if you have DirecTV or Cox Cable, you can
get it for free. But if you don't have that,
like I don't need YouTube TV, you have to pay
the twenty four to ninety nine a month to watch.
And you know, before you know, a year or two
from now, they're gonna have games exclusively on the app,
as if you're winning a prize. They like you're winning
(04:30):
a prize because they're putting something exclusively on the app.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
So you think, like Monday Night Football is eventually an.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
What do you think or the Manning cast or this random,
this random Wednesday game, and then they're saying it's twenty
four to ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well, let me tell you something real quick.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You know when Netflix first started, yeah, and it was
nine to ninety nine. Since since that day, they've had
a casual two hundred and fifty percent increase of their price,
not a one hundred percent, not one hundred and fifty percent,
a two hundred fifty percent increase of their price. They're
now at what, uh four ninety nine without adds. So
(05:08):
if I add that two hundred and fifty percent increase
to the twenty four twenty nin ninety nine, it's gonna
cost for ESPN director consumer. Before you know it, it's
gonna be sixty two dollars a month of that app.
And it's going to keep getting more and more and more,
and next thing you know, we're already paying more than
we do for cable. Remember back in the day when
you just had Cox Cable and you had one hundred
(05:28):
and twenty channels, you had ten hbos, you had Maxes,
you had skin a max yag, you had Stars, you
had every and it was only one hundred twenty bucks.
And then you got people like cutting cords, cut the
cord because I'm you, honey, Well, you screwed us.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
You screwed us, your cord cutting. You screwed us. And
the worst is gonna happen. But it was gonna happen
with her without me. By John, I said money at
the beginning.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I told her, I told her, remember so anyway, my
bill is out of control now. And these companies don't care.
They they they they stand over us, they squat over us,
and they do things they shouldn't do on our faces.
They shouldn't do on our faces. And they make you
(06:19):
feel like we're special because we have this app. Now
will screw you and your stop is the figure? Right,
come on, you need to grow up. I don't need
to grow up because now ESPN and guess what Fox
is that they're gonna have their own app. Now it's
called Fox one and they use that weird looking Tom
(06:40):
Brady figure. Now you can see Tom Brady, how weird
he looks now with his cheekbone sticking out like Tom
lay Off, the surgery bro Tom Brady, so as the
picture as a poster boy. So Fox, even though you
already have Fox Cable, they're coming out with an app,
and I guess they're partying with ESPN. But don't worry, guys,
they're gonna bundle it for us. Oh well, that will
(07:01):
save me no money because I already have Fox at
the ESPN. And then what they're gonna do is, well,
there's Cowboys Giants, but exclusively on the Fox one app
that's coming, and you pay one hundred dollars for that
just to watch more football than I already want to watch.
And then I'll think, okay, well maybe it's just football.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Is it just football? No, it's not just football.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Because Paul Leveck and WWE decided, you know what, you
know what, why don't we get involved in this because
we were We already charge a million dollars for a
ticket to anything now, so why don't we get bought
out by ESPN, which is what they did. So now
all their premium live events, which are just pay per views,
are only gonna be on ESPN. So now, if you're
(07:42):
a WW fanatic like Eddie is, you gotta have Peacock
because you gotta get the network. You gotta have this
new ESPN director consumer app. Because you want to watch
premium live events, you gotta have Netflix because you want
to watch raw and you gotta have Basic Cable because
you want to watch SmackDown.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
It's ridiculous. And let me just say this too.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
The way we consume these shows now is sports sucks
because remember back in the day, you're watching a Padre game,
You're watching done in Mud.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Yeah, you're kicking back on Cold one.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
It goes to commercial break and you're saying, you say, hey,
it's not commercial break.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Let me flip over to the news real quick. You
can't flip over to the news real quick anymore. You can't.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You gotta close out the app. Then you gotta go
to the home screen. Then you gotta open the new app.
Then you gotta flip to see what you want. Oh god,
is the game back on? Then you gotta go back
to the other app and open it. It's a terrible
way to watch sports. It sucks. They're screwing us. So
what I'm saying is this. So what I'm saying is this,
before you get involved.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
This calmed down. Everywhere, calm down. Someone needs to step
in and do it. I didn't vote for him.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I didn't vote for him, but my man, Donald Trump,
I thought we were getting politically I didn't. I didn't
vote for him. He likes to tweet random things that
make no sense at around two three thirty in the morning, true,
and get involved in the things where you're just like huh.
Like when he randomly tweeted I hate Taylor Swift.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
That's really rue.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
So my hope is I'm throwing I'm throwing last ditch
efforts here. I'm throwing throw hail Mary's whatever I got to.
So my last ditch effort is for Donald to tweet
out at around two thirty three a m. Randomly that
big businesses and these cable companies are taking advantage of
us and he needs to step in and the government
(09:39):
needs to step in and stop it, to break it down.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
And I don't think he won't. I don't think he
won't do it.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
He has big business. I mean he looks for that.
He's helping out big business. And Dana and Dana White
and him are their friends. So he's anything but.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
But he doesn't like the NFL because they wouldn't let
him be an owner years ago. I don't know where
he sells up to Super Bowl games and things like that. True,
the WWE. He's a massive guy.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I just never know what this guy. You never know
what this guy. The other thing is if he doesn't
do that.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
The other thing is what changed the music industry Napster, right,
because we all have to buy CDs. We were forced
to buy CDs, cassettes, whatever. There needs to be some
tech nerd out there who creates an app that has
all of these apps in it already and that creates
like an IP or something and they can't hack.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Isn't that just Pyrie? No?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I mean like that that you're you're describing TV channels,
you know, and all that stuff, and it's like, what, like,
what are we doing?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
But we need an app that has all the apps
in it but they can't take down, which is what
happened with Napster, and then it changed everything. And then
now we have music the way we have music, because
it's only going to get worse. People if you think
that this is the tip of the iceberg. Disney, ESPN,
they they don't care. They just want more money, Fox CBS,
they just want Paramount Plus.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
And what we're we gonna do.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
We gonna have entertainment because all because of here's the
tricky part. For somebody like you, this is terrible and
it is awful and it affects you badly. For somebody
like me, it's actually a good thing.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Really well, I know because I'm not gonna have to
pay for the ESPN app I don't have to pay
for because I already have Yeah, I already have cable
and so because of that, I don't have to pay
yet you're.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Acutity, Well I'm not. You're a cutie because if you
think that's gonna last. Where you get your free thing,
it's like it has it has for like HBO, I
get Hbo Max free for whatever. For now, as long
as ESPN and Cox, as long as Cox pays the
right amount of money, it's only a matter of time.
Or Direct TV pays the right amount of money, it's
(11:53):
a matter of time before ESPN sees maybe people aren't
buying as much as they want, so then they charge
direct TV or Cox more money. Even coxay, we're not
giving you more money, and the next thing, you know,
you lose.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Yes, I used to have to pay, you know, almost
eighty bucks a month for these UFC fights.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I don't have to do that. That's a cool thing.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
But if you have, let's say you're a casual of
UFC View and you only bought one or two papers
a year. Now you got to buy Paramount Plus every month.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
That sucks.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And it's Paramount plus. What's on paramoun Plus? I don't
even know, other than top Gun movies. They got like
CBS show the CBS. Yeah, kind of okay, so they
have blue Bloods, that's great. The point of the matter
is this, Donald, I needs you, Oh, I need you
to tweet something out. I don't know that something out.
I need you to be be one of your manic
(12:41):
phases at three in the morning and tweet something out
because it's only gonna get worse because they're screwing us.
And I'll tell you what, it's gonna get worse for
the athletes and the NFL players when your team starts
to lose. I'm gonna be a lot more angry now
because I spend a lot of money to watch that sport.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
You're already the most angry person on the planet. Time
for you gotta pay extra money to watch the padres.
It's only a matter of time. It's a matter of time.
I don't want to. I don't want to. Whatever I'll
pay them, I'll tip them what. He's very upset all right.
(13:16):
That was it all right,
