145: ‘Anthropomorphic Human Bowel’, With Special Guest Ben Thompson

 

00:00:00   to watch football are kind of I know you're a basketball guy know your NBA [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/0">TS</a>]

00:00:07   guy football football arm like I in the city like i like the idea of you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/7">TS</a>]

00:00:16   like I mean like boycott football because it's like killing people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/16">TS</a>]

00:00:19   yeah arm and I can be all self-righteous about and say well I don't watch don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/19">TS</a>]

00:00:23   watch football on the problem is that the main reason to watch football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/23">TS</a>]

00:00:27   because it's on in the middle of the night and I find football of all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/27">TS</a>]

00:00:31   sports the least amenable to watching not live which is weird because if you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/31">TS</a>]

00:00:37   watching that why you can watch it takes 30 minutes right arm but and buttocks I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/37">TS</a>]

00:00:42   know what I came to tell on the first time at like there weren't really any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/42">TS</a>]

00:00:46   streaming things was much more difficult to do that I and then when I went back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/46">TS</a>]

00:00:50   for four years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/50">TS</a>]

00:00:51   uh I was right back to write back write back on the conscience and they have two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/51">TS</a>]

00:00:55   dudes inside idea but i'm i'm gonna be kept here about it so I do watch some I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/55">TS</a>]

00:00:59   do watch it some arm i actually got the NFL package this year but I'm terribly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/59">TS</a>]

00:01:04   conflicted about it but it's not that's I mean you know it's so compelling to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/64">TS</a>]

00:01:08   watch the Superbowl i did i did and we were able to watch it live [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/68">TS</a>]

00:01:13   yeah I I i have the the NFL streaming arm thing which they actually includes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/73">TS</a>]

00:01:21   all the commercials and all that sort of stuff so you i was able to offer snide [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/81">TS</a>]

00:01:25   remarks along with the rest of Twitter I feel the same way about you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/85">TS</a>]

00:01:30   I figured if I talked about this on the show before I i know i've linked to it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/90">TS</a>]

00:01:34   and a cocky has to that it's like the NFL is so incredibly popular in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/94">TS</a>]

00:01:40   United States and its if anything more popular than it ever was especially [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/100">TS</a>]

00:01:45   compared to other team sports but yet it really does seem like the support as we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/105">TS</a>]

00:01:49   know it is completely doomed ought to be doomed and I I do feel as it's like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/109">TS</a>]

00:01:54   semi casual fan somebody who doesn't really watch as many games i used to i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/114">TS</a>]

00:01:59   do I actually feel like I get complicit it's like a guilt that this up the game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/119">TS</a>]

00:02:04   as configured is you know literally killing people and and you know giving [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/124">TS</a>]

00:02:09   them and not just kill you know but then you know making the last year's of her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/129">TS</a>]

00:02:13   life [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/133">TS</a>]

00:02:13   if absolutely miserable with this chronic traumatic and cephalo pathy CTE [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/133">TS</a>]

00:02:20   in other words though long story short for anybody doesn't follow football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/140">TS</a>]

00:02:23   there is massive evidence i mean just overwhelming evidence like smoking is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/143">TS</a>]

00:02:28   bad for your lungs and gives you cancer evidence that playing football even that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/148">TS</a>]

00:02:35   like high school level even if you just play in high school and then never play [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/155">TS</a>]

00:02:38   again but let alone if you go on to play college where people hit you harder and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/158">TS</a>]

00:02:42   go on to a pro career where bigger people hate you even harder for more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/162">TS</a>]

00:02:45   years that the repeated hits to your head [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/165">TS</a>]

00:02:50   I end up causing terrible scoring that your brain is not meant to have and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/170">TS</a>]

00:02:55   causes you know depression and all sorts of other problems but it's a really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/175">TS</a>]

00:03:00   nasty nasty degenerative brain disease and if it really seems like it's you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/180">TS</a>]

00:03:05   know it's just unbelievable how many former pro-football players have it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/185">TS</a>]

00:03:08   right it and that's that's the thing that arm it's easy to say well these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/188">TS</a>]

00:03:12   guys know what they're doing they're paid millions of dollars that's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/192">TS</a>]

00:03:15   trade-off they make but the problem is that all you know like any prosport only [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/195">TS</a>]

00:03:19   a very small fraction of people playing actually you know make money from it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/199">TS</a>]

00:03:25   uh and then use your bases are paying your head from the time your kid on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/205">TS</a>]

00:03:30   that's you know there's a lot of people that aren't that are winning that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/210">TS</a>]

00:03:35   trade-off to say the least and there were a couple of concussions in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/215">TS</a>]

00:03:40   superbowl I'm reading an article here this is the Panthers wide receiver Corey [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/220">TS</a>]

00:03:46   Brown suffered concussion and Broncos linebacker shaquil barrett I forget his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/226">TS</a>]

00:03:50   name I thought number 88 for the Broncos clearly had a concussion he got like his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/230">TS</a>]

00:03:55   clock cleaned and an early play and then later like the next time you run a route [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/235">TS</a>]

00:04:00   he just felt all day the left but really I don't know it and then just to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/240">TS</a>]

00:04:07   the word concussion mentioned during the game you just know that the NFL there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/247">TS</a>]

00:04:11   somebody the NFL is like a really open to get through this game without that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/251">TS</a>]

00:04:14   word coming up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/254">TS</a>]

00:04:15   yup way it is not just I mean that's the serious one but I mean there's also i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/255">TS</a>]

00:04:20   mean what what these people with these guys are doing to their to their bodies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/260">TS</a>]

00:04:24   i mean you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/264">TS</a>]

00:04:27   I mean it was a ben ben roethlisberger in the playoffs dislocated his throwing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/267">TS</a>]

00:04:32   arm and somehow managed to come in with up you know a few series later in play [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/272">TS</a>]

00:04:38   right arm you know and just just I i don't think it magically healed itself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/278">TS</a>]

00:04:43   in the meantime I you know there was like some horse tranquilizers being used [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/283">TS</a>]

00:04:48   or something like that I mean who knows what they're these guys are shooting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/288">TS</a>]

00:04:51   this of themselves up with 44 are our entertainment mom and yeah it's it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/291">TS</a>]

00:04:57   definitely it's with one of those things that it's it's hard to think a lot about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/297">TS</a>]

00:05:01   my theory and i said i think i've written Sundering for but my theory is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/301">TS</a>]

00:05:04   that the way the long-term way out is for football to evolve into a more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/304">TS</a>]

00:05:09   basketball like game that is mostly around more or less like professional [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/309">TS</a>]

00:05:14   flag football but it's mostly like quarterbacks and wide receivers and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/314">TS</a>]

00:05:18   athletic passing place and defensive guys you know who can counter that but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/318">TS</a>]

00:05:25   because I feel like that's the part of the game that I like best [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/325">TS</a>]

00:05:28   I love the passing game and I love you know some of the just incredible [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/328">TS</a>]

00:05:32   athleticism of you know catching a ball at full speed while running 50 yards [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/332">TS</a>]

00:05:36   downfield but I feel like there's way too much of the popularity is tied up in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/336">TS</a>]

00:05:41   that gladdie gladatorial aspect of the the violence you know that I say this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/341">TS</a>]

00:05:46   and I might enjoy watching that game and I like watching basketball but that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/346">TS</a>]

00:05:50   reason that sport is so popular as I way too much to do with the actual brutal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/350">TS</a>]

00:05:55   violence [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/355">TS</a>]

00:05:56   yeah i think that the weather that's part of it too and the other thing to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/356">TS</a>]

00:05:59   that part of what makes football so compelling is arm is like it really is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/359">TS</a>]

00:06:05   such a strategic sort of game time into you know so much violence and and part [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/365">TS</a>]

00:06:10   of that strategy is very much a sort of war of attrition aspect like you like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/370">TS</a>]

00:06:16   you do stuff in the first quarter like you you run plays that achieve no gain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/376">TS</a>]

00:06:20   uh in part two with the purple express purpose of wearing down the Defense so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/380">TS</a>]

00:06:25   that you can you pull off those plays we later in the game and like justify mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/385">TS</a>]

00:06:30   the fundamental nature is of it is so tied into who you know like getting a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/390">TS</a>]

00:06:35   physical advantage of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/395">TS</a>]

00:06:38   yeah it's I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/398">TS</a>]

00:06:40   and the other thing too is the trend I what you say makes sense intellectually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/400">TS</a>]

00:06:44   but the actual trend of the game is yes as right guys being bigger and stronger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/404">TS</a>]

00:06:48   and faster and hitting right ice I fully acknowledge the wistful wishful thinking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/408">TS</a>]

00:06:54   aspect of my make it more like flag football and basketball type athletic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/414">TS</a>]

00:06:59   game I fully acknowledge that it really contrasts and is in the opposite [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/419">TS</a>]

00:07:04   direction of what is actually going on with the league [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/424">TS</a>]

00:07:07   what did they say they say the one of the most interesting stats so there was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/427">TS</a>]

00:07:11   they were making a big celebration about the fact that this was super bowl 50 and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/431">TS</a>]

00:07:14   it's a nice round number [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/434">TS</a>]

00:07:15   Cam Newton the quarterback for the Carolina Panthers is 65 and 245 pounds [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/435">TS</a>]

00:07:23   he he's bigger than every single player who is on the championship green bay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/443">TS</a>]

00:07:30   packers team from Superbowl one that's crazy the quarterback the quarterback [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/450">TS</a>]

00:07:36   was bigger than everybody on a legendary legendarily great and and sort of rough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/456">TS</a>]

00:07:43   and tough big you know run it you know three yards and a cloud of dust green [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/463">TS</a>]

00:07:48   bay packers team kind of unbelievable it is only well yeah I thought and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/468">TS</a>]

00:07:54   again I think part of what makes football so appealing to is that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/474">TS</a>]

00:07:57   strategy is is very easily a parent to the slave play person fan that specific [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/477">TS</a>]

00:08:03   tactics aren't right like the exact nature of what the precision of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/483">TS</a>]

00:08:08   plane the complexity of a given play is you know obviously it's different ever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/488">TS</a>]

00:08:12   seen like the size of an NFL playbook although i guess now they're all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/492">TS</a>]

00:08:15   size of a surface tablet but back when they were in a few you're on brand back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/495">TS</a>]

00:08:20   when they were in a binder they were just like phonebook size but that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/500">TS</a>]

00:08:24   know that there its complex tactics and very simple strategy and I thought the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/504">TS</a>]

00:08:28   superbowl really super bowl was a perfect example of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/508">TS</a>]

00:08:31   yep definitely it's a garden where where where where I don't know this is better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/511">TS</a>]

00:08:38   or worse than baseball baseball talked about Bob it's got to talk about the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/518">TS</a>]

00:08:43   superbowl ya know it was armed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/523">TS</a>]

00:08:45   you know I I'm so I'm so it it's it's all those things I mean it's a perfect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/525">TS</a>]

00:08:51   example of armed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/531">TS</a>]

00:08:53   you know it it's a reminder of about standing and doesn't everyone about on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/533">TS</a>]

00:09:00   anything to anyone because I there's no question that the hypocrite and I like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/540">TS</a>]

00:09:06   to say I'm was a hypocrite because i don't watch that many games or something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/546">TS</a>]

00:09:08   like that but then actually that's just a matter of circumstance by being honest [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/548">TS</a>]

00:09:13   with myself and you want to think about it here's the long term the long term [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/553">TS</a>]

00:09:16   pessimist strategy about the NFL football in general the NFL from the top [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/556">TS</a>]

00:09:21   down at the professional level is a they're very successful there and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/561">TS</a>]

00:09:25   they're very effective [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/565">TS</a>]

00:09:26   you know like in terms of PR and have good lawyers I mean I mean they've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/566">TS</a>]

00:09:30   effectively their lawyers are so good they've gotten everybody who doesn't pay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/570">TS</a>]

00:09:33   them a fortune to refer to the game is the big game instead of the superbowl [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/573">TS</a>]

00:09:37   behind not as crazy it's absolutely not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/577">TS</a>]

00:09:42   how bad are not bad but how effective they are having gotten rid of anybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/582">TS</a>]

00:09:46   using those that the two words Super Bowl without paying them and it just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/586">TS</a>]

00:09:51   shows how unbelievable the brand is for the simple that they want to do that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/591">TS</a>]

00:09:54   right like most liked the MV i don't think the NBA finals is so our or the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/594">TS</a>]

00:10:00   World Series is anywhere near as as litigious about that because they want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/600">TS</a>]

00:10:04   people talking about the world series they want people talking about the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/604">TS</a>]

00:10:07   finals [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/607">TS</a>]

00:10:08   where's the superbowl the NFL's a we know you're talking about super bowl so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/608">TS</a>]

00:10:11   you're gonna pay us for those words though I think it's from the bottom up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/611">TS</a>]

00:10:16   where the game collapses which is that high schools and youth leagues are going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/616">TS</a>]

00:10:22   to start getting sued more and more and I feel like lawyers and insurance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/622">TS</a>]

00:10:28   companies are going to start telling I don't know if this is like next few [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/628">TS</a>]

00:10:31   years thing or if it's a 10 years from now thing but I think it's absolutely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/631">TS</a>]

00:10:34   within the next 15 years that you know insurance companies are going to start [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/634">TS</a>]

00:10:38   telling schools we you you can have a football team [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/638">TS</a>]

00:10:41   yep and more and more even without that I think you got more and more parents [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/641">TS</a>]

00:10:49   who are saying to their athletic children and let's just face it quite [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/649">TS</a>]

00:10:54   frankly their sons [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/654">TS</a>]

00:10:55   I mean there's a video there's a few girls who play here and there but it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/655">TS</a>]

00:10:59   usually quite notable you know you can't play football you know you're going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/659">TS</a>]

00:11:04   play soccer in the fall and basketball in the winter and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/664">TS</a>]

00:11:07   you can play baseball in the spring but you're not playing football and I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/667">TS</a>]

00:11:11   with good reason i don't i don't think i would let my kid play fact i know i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/671">TS</a>]

00:11:15   wouldn't definitely want to play football and I think it's gonna happen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/675">TS</a>]

00:11:19   more and you start hearing it now from football players i create when I said he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/679">TS</a>]

00:11:23   wouldn't let his kids play football and once that starts happening in fewer and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/683">TS</a>]

00:11:30   fewer athletic kids even play football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/690">TS</a>]

00:11:32   the kids who are who are the extraordinary athlete to micropro are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/692">TS</a>]

00:11:36   going to end up in different leagues you know they're going to end up pitching in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/696">TS</a>]

00:11:39   baseball or playing basketball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/699">TS</a>]

00:11:41   maybe well maybe we'll finally have a good US Secretary I'm not that we have a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/701">TS</a>]

00:11:46   negative team but you know and we get if we get the the the best athletes all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/706">TS</a>]

00:11:50   right I my board with that the other thing too is because the easy football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/710">TS</a>]

00:11:54   is such a you American sport like I'm like baseball has lost a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/714">TS</a>]

00:11:58   particularly like the inner cities uh and certain parts of the country [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/718">TS</a>]

00:12:02   baseball has really fallen off but it's been armed from white American [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/722">TS</a>]

00:12:07   particular there's been a huge influx of talent that is that is really you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/727">TS</a>]

00:12:12   pick up pick up the pace but football's not going to have that aren't and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/732">TS</a>]

00:12:16   what's once it loses the the American pipeline that's that's the only pipeline [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/736">TS</a>]

00:12:20   yeah I i think the long-term path is that it devolves into a regional support [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/740">TS</a>]

00:12:25   in the u.s. South yep curious how it plays out it was it's it's um I mean it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/745">TS</a>]

00:12:33   is amazing amazing how popular and pervasive it is i mean even on something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/753">TS</a>]

00:15:57   sideline seats you know I don't use a box that i saw some photos later [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/957">TS</a>]

00:16:05   tweet congrats to the championship Denver Broncos and he took a picture of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/965">TS</a>]

00:16:10   like the celebration on the field like fireworks going off and and you know the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/970">TS</a>]

00:16:14   on-field I don't know how that happens but like at the Super Bowl when the game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/974">TS</a>]

00:16:17   is over there's seemingly like 1500 people who stormed the field so right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/977">TS</a>]

00:16:23   pandemonium on the field I anything posted photo it to Twitter and it's you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/983">TS</a>]

00:16:29   know it's not a great photo it's dark and it's blurry and I mean dark meaning [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/989">TS</a>]

00:16:33   like it's nighttime there and there was they turn the lights down so you can see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/993">TS</a>]

00:16:37   the fireworks and so there's camera blur because it's you know there's not enough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/997">TS</a>]

00:16:41   light to take a short picture it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1001">TS</a>]

00:16:45   I know and then and then he got excoriated on Twitter it seem like you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1005">TS</a>]

00:16:49   know and and people in the press were to picking up on writing stories that Tim [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1009">TS</a>]

00:16:54   cooked took a terrible photo at the Superbowl it will ya [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1014">TS</a>]

00:17:04   perfectly fine reasons for it to be blurry i thought it was by that is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1024">TS</a>]

00:17:08   pretty hilarious the Virgin like Casey Newton the words had a funny post talk [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1028">TS</a>]

00:17:13   about people being mean mean to be mean to him cook and I think he sees that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1033">TS</a>]

00:17:17   excuse for his opening paragraph which was hilarious and super mean arm by the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1037">TS</a>]

00:17:22   way whatever if you're if you're the if you're Tim Cook arm i think you can feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1042">TS</a>]

00:17:26   it will be ok so ebay ended up deleting the tweet right and then he posted a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1046">TS</a>]

00:17:33   much better picture a few minutes later [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1053">TS</a>]

00:17:35   but people still we're making jokes I guess the joke's everyone to make was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1055">TS</a>]

00:17:39   they were sticking his photo is blurry sort of slightly up not quite squared up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1059">TS</a>]

00:17:45   photo into a shot with iphone 6 billboard you kept but yes that that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1065">TS</a>]

00:18:08   reader not a word about the shitty photo you are a pig [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1088">TS</a>]

00:18:28   Ellis that was graceful of you i like to pretend when i get an email like that i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1108">TS</a>]

00:18:32   like to pretend that I just answer every email as though it's I love your website [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1112">TS</a>]

00:18:37   that's the best thing I've read all day i tried the first thing I read every day [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1117">TS</a>]

00:18:41   and that's exactly how I right back to the people who write something like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1121">TS</a>]

00:18:46   I thought that it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1126">TS</a>]

00:18:51   I wonder what happened I kind of I like the idea that that tim cook sometimes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1131">TS</a>]

00:18:57   tweets like that just like a normal person right like you know he's excited [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1137">TS</a>]

00:19:03   he's a sports fan he's at the Superbowl it takes a picture he's not a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1143">TS</a>]

00:19:07   professional photographer whatever however much you want to praise the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1147">TS</a>]

00:19:11   iphone 6 I don't know what he's probably what do you think is a 6x think he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1151">TS</a>]

00:19:16   plus guy I no idea i wonder well it's a 50-50 chance easy they got the success [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1156">TS</a>]

00:19:23   of the success plus if you had the pulse i'll probably the sticks because it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1163">TS</a>]

00:19:26   doesn't address table is right maybe that's what you maybe needs the image [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1166">TS</a>]

00:19:29   stabilization but either way even with the image stabilization as fine as the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1169">TS</a>]

00:19:33   camera as it is and arguably easily arguably the best of any cellphone and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1173">TS</a>]

00:19:38   in arguably among the best of any phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1178">TS</a>]

00:19:42   I think that's fair to say it is going to struggle in certain lighting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1182">TS</a>]

00:19:47   conditions and the end on the field at the super bowl is certainly after the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1187">TS</a>]

00:19:50   game at nighttime is certainly one of them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1190">TS</a>]

00:19:53   I thought it it i thought that there was a tangible realness to it and no this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1193">TS</a>]

00:19:58   not the type of photo you're gonna put on a billboard shot with iphone 6 but it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1198">TS</a>]

00:20:02   the photo itself wasn't great but I thought that the whole hell even the CEO [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1202">TS</a>]

00:20:07   of Apple take streets after an exciting thing like this is was an interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1207">TS</a>]

00:20:11   angle you know it may I i think that he should have deleted it like he should [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1211">TS</a>]

00:20:16   have liked it was it could have been a hilarious like segue like the next Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1216">TS</a>]

00:20:20   presentation or yes yes like own it let it play out and then and then and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1220">TS</a>]

00:20:26   you could you know you can make a joke about it and a subsequent event right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1226">TS</a>]

00:20:31   now it's exactly exactly like people that that's like--that's what Twitter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1231">TS</a>]

00:20:35   does twitter twitter is run on Stark [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1235">TS</a>]

00:20:46   end [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1246">TS</a>]

00:20:47   yeah I i think the the real mistake was wasn't was into eating it and then you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1247">TS</a>]

00:20:53   just look the examiner reinforces it it takes away the credibility from things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1253">TS</a>]

00:20:58   you see in the future like if you do something like that like you said it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1258">TS</a>]

00:21:01   makes you look real mix of human we've all taken crappy photos arm and and you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1261">TS</a>]

00:21:44   Asgard on Twitter as they are anywhere else you know where as Twitter could be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1304">TS</a>]

00:22:30   like that people like to be outraged they like to play like to make a big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1350">TS</a>]

00:22:35   deal of stuff that that probably wasn't a big deal and and I think there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1355">TS</a>]

00:22:40   there's a sense particular someone like tim cook or anyone that has relatively [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1360">TS</a>]

00:22:44   high profile like there's a there's ad dehumanization that kind of occurs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1364">TS</a>]

00:22:50   tonight again i don't think that i don't think that Tim Cook was losing sleep [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1370">TS</a>]

00:22:55   because people are making fun of his photo but you know it's like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1375">TS</a>]

00:23:00   unfortunately that's just the reality of being a public forum and I think this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1380">TS</a>]

00:23:04   you know it's a real this is a real a real challenge for twitter my maybe on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1384">TS</a>]

00:23:08   twitter is all others problems by is this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1388">TS</a>]

00:23:11   it's didn't the virtue is being public the virtues the fact you can connect and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1391">TS</a>]

00:23:16   talk to anyone right and that is the downside in spades right how long after [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1396">TS</a>]

00:23:24   he posted that tweeting his phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1404">TS</a>]

00:23:27   jingle then looks down on it and it says Steve down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1407">TS</a>]

00:23:30   that's what do you say you'd only big utilities envision how this happened [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1410">TS</a>]

00:23:36   right so you what I think was the boxes down the field [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1416">TS</a>]

00:23:40   it's very like I'm sure it's very exciting stuff around takes a picture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1420">TS</a>]

00:23:42   prices posted with the barely even looking at it and he has like all of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1422">TS</a>]

00:23:50   start it without ever having been even I've never been in this stadium for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1430">TS</a>]

00:23:55   super bowl but just watching on TV which i think almost makes it seem more saying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1435">TS</a>]

00:23:59   because like they have cameras that are high up that are that are stable and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1439">TS</a>]

00:24:04   cameramen on the field are truly truly amazing professional photographers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1444">TS</a>]

00:24:08   that it it's controlled barely controlled pandemonium you know with no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1448">TS</a>]

00:24:13   not not overstating in and you just know that like 10 minutes later darling out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1453">TS</a>]

00:24:19   of column it and I bet it was a tough call but it was like do you know why but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1459">TS</a>]

00:24:25   it wasn't like a clear-cut call ya buy a doll i thought it was body I I just wish [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1465">TS</a>]

00:24:31   he should owned it like you said like it knew it would have made a hilarious [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1471">TS</a>]

00:24:35   like I mean as hilarious as such things can be sort of like 10 second interlude [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1475">TS</a>]

00:24:41   at the at WWDC or something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1481">TS</a>]

00:24:43   yeah like literally order the next iphone should actually be like where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1483">TS</a>]

00:24:47   where are the five señor ever comes with X amount of cabron good lord do i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1487">TS</a>]

00:24:52   need it in front of me I think the problem is that and maybe the problem is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1492">TS</a>]

00:24:55   that the timing doesn't work because new iPhones are going to come to September [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1495">TS</a>]

00:24:58   and they have at least two events between now and then and then we'll be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1498">TS</a>]

00:25:01   old news by September lot of that whatever you can still write maybe it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1501">TS</a>]

00:25:05   would be perfect if they had like new high-end you know phones coming next [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1505">TS</a>]

00:25:10   month it would be perfect it would almost have been suspicious that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1510">TS</a>]

00:25:13   planned it right people would be in all of a sudden that would be the you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1513">TS</a>]

00:25:18   the the conspiracy theories and come out that they think faked it on purpose rub [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1518">TS</a>]

00:25:24   two rub three rub dead you know rub some kind of grease all over the camera and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1524">TS</a>]

00:28:10   that's a good segue to talking about Twitter right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1690">TS</a>]

00:28:13   yes we want the superbowl to tempt this could be a very seamless show this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1693">TS</a>]

00:28:18   could be a bunch of good segue to do we keep it going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1698">TS</a>]

00:28:21   superbowl tim cook at the super bowl in his tweet that he that he deleted also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1701">TS</a>]

00:28:27   by the way the second one he posted the photo is beautiful it was a really good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1707">TS</a>]

00:28:31   photo now let's talk about Twitter and you you had a good piece i think i just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1711">TS</a>]

00:28:39   went up yesterday as we record yes it's been up for about 24 hours or so I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1719">TS</a>]

00:28:46   want to paraphrase too much but did just a bit being you quoted a thing that i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1726">TS</a>]

00:28:49   wrote that and I've said this before I've said this many times that the thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1729">TS</a>]

00:28:52   that really is unfair to Twitter and hurts twitter is that there compared to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1732">TS</a>]

00:28:56   facebook maybe mostly by light that sort of Wall Street perspective and they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1736">TS</a>]

00:29:04   measure they come up short and as time goes on there coming up shorter and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1744">TS</a>]

00:29:08   shorter because facebook is killing it and twitter is sort of spinning its [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1748">TS</a>]

00:29:12   wheels and it it's unfair to Twitter because twitter has an amazing thing it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1752">TS</a>]

00:29:17   just happens to be this amazing thing that seemingly naturally is way smaller [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1757">TS</a>]

00:29:22   and Facebook and your argument is be that as it may they're screwed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1762">TS</a>]

00:29:26   yet with the the real problem with for them and for any company is you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1766">TS</a>]

00:29:33   that they're there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1773">TS</a>]

00:29:34   the the business model I mean Twitter made a choice to be a ad-supported [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1774">TS</a>]

00:29:41   business and that choice has certain you know certain applications to it arm what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1781">TS</a>]

00:29:49   basically you you can export business you either have to have these extremely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1789">TS</a>]

00:29:54   high performing adds that convert like Google or you need to have a massive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1794">TS</a>]

00:30:00   audience that you're very good at arguing arm you know more like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1800">TS</a>]

00:30:05   facebook sort of thing and Twitter doesn't doesn't really have either and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1805">TS</a>]

00:30:10   and so the big problem is that yes for me user perspective to use facebook and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1810">TS</a>]

00:30:15   use Twitter are are are different experiences but they're competing for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1815">TS</a>]

00:30:20   the same customer by customer i mean the same advertiser in the same advertising [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1820">TS</a>]

00:30:24   dollars and and that's that that's a problem because what if you're an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1824">TS</a>]

00:30:30   advertiser and you have limited not just money but limited time like there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1830">TS</a>]

00:30:34   time component to Twitter once their custom ad campaigns facebook wants [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1834">TS</a>]

00:30:37   circus making things google wants us back and can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1837">TS</a>]

00:30:39   things been traumatic campaigns you know snapchat all these sorts of things and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1839">TS</a>]

00:30:44   yes there is a shift in money from you know other forms immediate to digital [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1844">TS</a>]

00:30:49   but where are you going to spend your time particularly when uh you can get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1849">TS</a>]

00:30:56   pretty much the same audience with better data better targeting better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1856">TS</a>]

00:31:00   tracking and they have enough inventory to satisfy your needs on facebook what's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1860">TS</a>]

00:31:05   the point in spending money on on Twitter and so that it that's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1865">TS</a>]

00:31:10   that's the problem it's a problem from a long-term sustainability perspective and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1870">TS</a>]

00:31:16   it's a problem from a absolutely from a stock perspective I mean there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1876">TS</a>]

00:31:19   twitter stock is down massively arm from its highs in from from its IPO price in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1879">TS</a>]

00:31:26   part because you you know that it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1886">TS</a>]

00:31:31   investors are brightly and masturbation losing faith that there is any sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1891">TS</a>]

00:31:36   real growth story for twitter i mean a company that is more than 10 years old [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1896">TS</a>]

00:31:40   and has yet to turn a profit right and it's a bummer its memories like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1900">TS</a>]

00:31:48   thing with twitter is uh there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1908">TS</a>]

00:31:51   I think I mean backpack with twitter made this decision there was still kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1911">TS</a>]

00:31:55   of the sense that you know at of course all consumer services will be at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1915">TS</a>]

00:31:59   supported and uh and I i actually think that's in its increasingly questionable [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1919">TS</a>]

00:32:04   the Greens that's going to be the point i mean face because facebook and google [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1924">TS</a>]

00:32:07   or so dominance and the big difference is you know they have so much inventory [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1927">TS</a>]

00:32:11   like they can soak up you know so much so much to spend [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1931">TS</a>]

00:32:15   so you have a better product and all the image otherwise you're going anywhere [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1935">TS</a>]

00:32:19   else arm Twitter like Twitter's do the format of twitter is isn't as as great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1939">TS</a>]

00:32:28   for advertising what is twitter good at twitter is good at data [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1948">TS</a>]

00:32:31   twitter has real-time data and the idea was the data they have about users who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1951">TS</a>]

00:32:38   are building an interest graph as opposed to a a social graph that would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1958">TS</a>]

00:32:44   make the potential for targeting you know much more interesting and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1964">TS</a>]

00:32:47   attractive you know the flip side is the way you get a good interest graph is by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1967">TS</a>]

00:32:51   going through the hard work of building [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1971">TS</a>]

00:32:53   twitter feed which is really difficult in this is a big problem thinking new [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1973">TS</a>]

00:32:56   users arm but that data the data and happens on Twitter the fact that Twitter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1976">TS</a>]

00:33:03   is so central to things like the Super Bowl and things that are going on and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1983">TS</a>]

00:33:07   you can get real-time understanding what's happening and what's what's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1987">TS</a>]

00:33:10   pulsing was trending uh it's too bad they didn't explore business model built [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1990">TS</a>]

00:33:16   around exploiting that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1996">TS</a>]

00:33:18   yeah same thing for me last night as a as a political junkie US national [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/1998">TS</a>]

00:33:23   political junkie at least watching last night as we recorded the day after the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2003">TS</a>]

00:33:27   new hampshire primary which wasn't all that exciting I mean it was kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2007">TS</a>]

00:33:31   decision that was one that came out sort of as the the poles got it exactly right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2011">TS</a>]

00:33:35   but as a political junkie i'm still watching you know i'm watching MSNBC I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2015">TS</a>]

00:33:41   you know on that second screen guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2021">TS</a>]

00:33:42   it's a it's a you know and then I'm at the point now where I can't even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2022">TS</a>]

00:33:46   remember watching as a political junkie watching something like the returns on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2026">TS</a>]

00:33:52   an election our primary election without Twitter because one of the things always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2032">TS</a>]

00:33:56   made of frustrating to me is a news junkie is that the news on an election [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2036">TS</a>]

00:34:01   night doesn't come in fast enough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2041">TS</a>]

00:34:03   the news doesn't come in and so they just fill it with the pundit ree but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2043">TS</a>]

00:34:07   because that there's not much news coming in they're just going to multiple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2047">TS</a>]

00:34:11   people to sort of say the same thing right and it doesn't go fast enough to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2051">TS</a>]

00:34:16   satisfy my attention addled brain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2056">TS</a>]

00:34:20   ok and so Twitter fills that in because all of a sudden that's where you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2060">TS</a>]

00:34:24   somebody will come up with something that's actually an interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2064">TS</a>]

00:34:26   observation or funny Joker something the snark we referred to her yeah with it i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2066">TS</a>]

00:34:32   think Twitter and Twitter it's funny you mentioned we live in a kind of politics [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2072">TS</a>]

00:34:35   i think the problem for Twitter the charger twitter is actually uh were kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2075">TS</a>]

00:34:40   of similar to the problem faced by news in general I mean news is very valuable [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2080">TS</a>]

00:34:46   and it's also worthless because it's fish trap literally I mean it's it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2086">TS</a>]

00:34:51   it's an old joke if you're ordering a newspaper industry but to today's news [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2091">TS</a>]

00:34:55   is tomorrow's fish wrap that's exactly it in but the problem now is today's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2095">TS</a>]

00:34:59   tweet like Twitter so valuable because someone can break a story with a tweet [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2099">TS</a>]

00:35:04   right but like all at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2104">TS</a>]

00:35:07   the tweet is than worthless or and and/or the the news in the tweeters than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2107">TS</a>]

00:35:11   worthless rightly it's like heat it's out there like there's there's no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2111">TS</a>]

00:35:15   there's no value [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2115">TS</a>]

00:35:17   it's out it's a public good now a campaign can be kept it can't be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2117">TS</a>]

00:35:21   captured [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2121">TS</a>]

00:35:22   uh and that's kind of the case for Twitter on Twitter une it's almost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2122">TS</a>]

00:35:26   impossible to read a new story about lots of things without there being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2126">TS</a>]

00:35:30   embedded tweets for example right uh but but that doesn't make it worth something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2130">TS</a>]

00:35:37   it was from a traditional sort of advertising perspective or twitter has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2137">TS</a>]

00:35:40   to keep all the eyeballs and then that's what's going on like yes you you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2140">TS</a>]

00:35:44   recognize that Twitter is essential and appreciate the fact that Twitter can be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2144">TS</a>]

00:35:49   essential for you know someone who doesn't use twitter because they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2149">TS</a>]

00:35:53   gonna find out about happen on Twitter immediately anyways you know through [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2153">TS</a>]

00:35:57   some other channel through web page they read and in doubt you almost set to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2157">TS</a>]

00:36:01   think like the model that might have worked for twitter and it would be you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2161">TS</a>]

00:36:07   know what's the most successful news company argued with something like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2167">TS</a>]

00:36:10   Bloomberg right where they they actually the news is a means to sell a physical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2170">TS</a>]

00:36:17   product and the physical product is in part about utilities and part about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2177">TS</a>]

00:36:21   status in part about the the internal social network that rumor terminals have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2181">TS</a>]

00:36:26   and in that all washer uses talk to each other and that is something that like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2186">TS</a>]

00:36:32   that sort of model up a platform model but a different kind of platform model [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2192">TS</a>]

00:36:38   not an advertising buffer model is that might make sense for twitter but this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2198">TS</a>]

00:36:42   where you get back to the fact that Twitter didn't even start to Twitter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2202">TS</a>]

00:36:46   spent so long so many years the beginning not developing the product not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2206">TS</a>]

00:36:51   developing monetization but basically trying to kill each other arm and I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2211">TS</a>]

00:36:56   you don't metaphorically speaking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2216">TS</a>]

00:36:59   I still feel like institutionally there is a uncertainty as to what the hell'd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2219">TS</a>]

00:37:08   twitter is I tonight and it hasn't it they had it when they came out when they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2228">TS</a>]

00:37:13   came out in $MONTH 2006 or owner of the river something in 2005-2006 is when i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2233">TS</a>]

00:37:19   signed up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2239">TS</a>]

00:37:20   there was a clear idea of what it was or what it was supposed to be and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2240">TS</a>]

00:37:25   obviously evolved over the years I what they're i'm not saying they should go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2245">TS</a>]

00:37:27   back to the original idea i mean they didn't even have things like at replies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2247">TS</a>]

00:37:31   there was all this stuff that came out of user behavior the whole day original [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2251">TS</a>]

00:37:34   idea was to tell people what you're up to it was four I think been an elevator [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2254">TS</a>]

00:37:39   pitch it was your AOL status at a it combined with the old unix finger you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2259">TS</a>]

00:37:48   know right status right we do you remember that I mean I'd better explain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2268">TS</a>]

00:37:56   that for anybody who doesn't know you because you would people with with this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2276">TS</a>]

00:38:01   was in this is advantage arm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2281">TS</a>]

00:38:03   this was something on him that isn't there isn't some anecdote around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2283">TS</a>]

00:38:06   messaging services about why someone wanted something that people would would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2286">TS</a>]

00:38:10   set their this backward couple were in college like that they're there LOL [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2290">TS</a>]

00:38:15   status [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2295">TS</a>]

00:38:16   that's our knowledge when I was in college when i was in college you set [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2296">TS</a>]

00:38:21   your finger status so late when i was in college [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2301">TS</a>]

00:38:24   well I mean I don't know when this fell apart but it you'd get like an account [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2304">TS</a>]

00:38:27   on a unix you know machine and that's where you go to check your email and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2307">TS</a>]

00:38:31   stuff like that but if you created an account in your home folder with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2311">TS</a>]

00:38:35   name . finger now the . made it like a secret invisible file so you wouldn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2315">TS</a>]

00:38:39   see it all the time you would just put like where you are like if you were home [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2319">TS</a>]

00:38:42   for winter break and you weren't around you could put it in there and then if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2322">TS</a>]

00:38:46   you wanted to check the status of somebody you know you would just say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2326">TS</a>]

00:38:50   finger been at whatever school been goes to . I'd you and then it would read back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2330">TS</a>]

00:38:56   your half an hour [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2336">TS</a>]

00:38:58   who's the idiot who named the command finger i I don't I don't know maybe they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2338">TS</a>]

00:39:02   knew exactly what they were doing it appears there's actually a lot of stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2342">TS</a>]

00:39:07   like this in like old texts or stuff that's just really questionable in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2347">TS</a>]

00:39:11   retrospect right here is navy conventions in like right uh yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2351">TS</a>]

00:39:17   the idea was that you're like poking finger and I'm like what's he up to and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2357">TS</a>]

00:39:20   then you can just you just update your finger you know and that's what Twitter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2360">TS</a>]

00:39:23   was trigger was like what are you up to what are you doing and you say i'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2363">TS</a>]

00:39:25   eating a sandwich [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2365">TS</a>]

00:39:26   I'm you know getting my first you know coffee of the day [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2366">TS</a>]

00:39:31   and then what and evolved from there I think the thing that the way that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2371">TS</a>]

00:39:38   always thought about it is I mean two things Twitter involved really quickly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2378">TS</a>]

00:39:41   like oh and actually most of the core conventions of Twitter like the at reply [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2381">TS</a>]

00:39:46   and the retweet and other stuff were in the product within like a year janitor [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2386">TS</a>]

00:39:51   and a half and it basically the product has not evolved since then I think the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2391">TS</a>]

00:39:55   one the one real big addition was the was the real retweet like we could with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2395">TS</a>]

00:40:00   it not the manual reach right we actually did it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2400">TS</a>]

00:40:02   arm i think that was 2009 or something like that but other than that like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2402">TS</a>]

00:40:07   product with the broad figured it out pretty quickly and the way out of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2407">TS</a>]

00:40:11   way I was characterized it I repeat what it's like over a year ago was this was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2411">TS</a>]

00:40:15   actually a big problem for twitter and the reason was a problem was our music [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2415">TS</a>]

00:40:19   like product-market fit for companies right a company is likely they have an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2419">TS</a>]

00:40:23   idea for product and it's not quite right but if you gotta figure out who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2423">TS</a>]

00:40:25   their customers and they get it right and then I once you get that right you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2425">TS</a>]

00:40:29   your product in your marketing you know your market near the right product for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2429">TS</a>]

00:40:32   it that's when you pour on the money in you scale and you get a bunch of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2432">TS</a>]

00:40:36   customers that sort of thing but you have to get product market fit first and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2436">TS</a>]

00:40:40   almost a challenge for twitter was that they the initial product was so was so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2440">TS</a>]

00:40:46   powerful it was so good it like they never had to go through that sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2446">TS</a>]

00:40:50   struggle to figure out what it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2450">TS</a>]

00:40:53   it just took off and date and so they never had to go through that internal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2453">TS</a>]

00:40:57   process of figuring out what their product is who the customer is what what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2457">TS</a>]

00:41:01   it does it just happened and so the problem was it didn't happen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2461">TS</a>]

00:41:05   perfectly enough to reach everyone like it would write the utility was so good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2465">TS</a>]

00:41:10   the twitters always been hard to use like to get started I mean to get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2470">TS</a>]

00:41:13   started from but the utility was so good that all escapes were more than happy to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2473">TS</a>]

00:41:18   jump through all the hoops to figure out how to use it because the utility was so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2478">TS</a>]

00:41:22   massive but you get down to like what i call a marginal user right where is it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2482">TS</a>]

00:41:26   where is the utility up with that I might get from Twitter worth the cost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2486">TS</a>]

00:41:30   can take me to get up to it and they hit that marginal user after a few hundred [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2490">TS</a>]

00:41:34   million and and just round to a halt right and don't you think that it's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2494">TS</a>]

00:41:39   case that it's just too hard to guess and when you're inside and like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2499">TS</a>]

00:41:45   you work at Twitter and you're there for a reason to be optimistic and you get it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2505">TS</a>]

00:41:49   because you actually work there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2509">TS</a>]

00:41:50   it's easy to maybe even lie to yourself a little bit that during that growth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2510">TS</a>]

00:41:54   spades space early on while the product is still evolving and there's clearly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2514">TS</a>]

00:42:00   enthusiasm and you know you've got something electric on your hands that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2520">TS</a>]

00:42:04   it's very unclear what how you know while the growth is going on about how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2524">TS</a>]

00:42:09   much growth there is ahead of you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2529">TS</a>]

00:42:11   it's right in and I think that Twitter guessed wrong i think a lot of investors [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2531">TS</a>]

00:42:15   get strong in terms of it being too optimistic with into is I don't think I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2535">TS</a>]

00:42:22   2008 two things one Twitter's growth really it happened in $MONTH 2009 where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2542">TS</a>]

00:42:28   the growth just suddenly stopped that was also the time where Twitter was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2548">TS</a>]

00:42:32   having massive technical problems like the site could not stay up arm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2552">TS</a>]

00:42:36   yeah you people don't forget to fail well actually I have a farewell clock [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2556">TS</a>]

00:42:40   vital like to so they had their hands full basically rebuilding the service on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2560">TS</a>]

00:42:48   the fly it used to be you could count on it like clockwork that it would fail [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2568">TS</a>]

00:42:52   during an apple event hopefully will be used to fill almost every day I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2572">TS</a>]

00:42:56   that was an improvement but it only failed during bigger than well he'd be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2576">TS</a>]

00:43:00   there was a time where it was on the verge of complete collapse then there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2580">TS</a>]

00:43:05   was a time where on a daily basis they were up but something like an apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2585">TS</a>]

00:43:08   event could make a collapse which is normally but it which is it again for me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2588">TS</a>]

00:43:13   and you and the folks listen to the talk show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2593">TS</a>]

00:43:15   yeah that's a big deal but compared to the Superbowl or the academy awards or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2595">TS</a>]

00:43:19   an election night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2599">TS</a>]

00:43:21   it's nothing like that however much attention Apple gets compared to any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2601">TS</a>]

00:43:25   other technical company they don't get that much for a tuesday morning at $TIME [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2605">TS</a>]

00:43:30   noon eastern press event and yet it Twitter would just be you just and that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2610">TS</a>]

00:43:36   was it so that was a big reason why Dorsey horse out the first time and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2616">TS</a>]

00:43:39   they have they have management of people there the site barely staying up there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2619">TS</a>]

00:43:42   to rebuild the whole thing from scratch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2622">TS</a>]

00:43:44   I mean Reuters are like being like a ruby on rails application right which is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2624">TS</a>]

00:43:47   year which is which is all well and good but it's not it's not the framework you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2627">TS</a>]

00:43:51   would choose to to to handle you know hundreds of millions of tweets the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2631">TS</a>]

00:43:54   second whatever arm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2634">TS</a>]

00:43:57   then I and so in that happened at the exact same moment they hit this marginal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2637">TS</a>]

00:44:01   user and so it was it was it was bad luck up from that perspective in that in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2641">TS</a>]

00:44:07   that happened at that time arm and then I'll another pointer was but but they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2647">TS</a>]

00:44:13   all the other thing too is I don't think at that time if you were to tell someone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2653">TS</a>]

00:44:17   in 2009 that a settee a user base of 300 million users [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2657">TS</a>]

00:44:22   I you know I question how how many of those are actual people using it but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2662">TS</a>]

00:44:27   even if you say 250 million you it would be hard to tell someone back then that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2667">TS</a>]

00:44:33   that would not be a big enough user base to have a an ad-supported service [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2673">TS</a>]

00:44:38   yes that's a very good point now before i forget because if i forget this point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2678">TS</a>]

00:44:43   I'm gonna shoot myself and want to record the whole episode because i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2683">TS</a>]

00:44:46   thought one of the most interesting things I read your piece and I knew this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2686">TS</a>]

00:44:49   I've known this before I've read this before but it's one of those facts that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2689">TS</a>]

00:44:53   goes in one ear and out the other for me and I think for a lot of other people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2693">TS</a>]

00:44:57   but I almost feel like the situation this whole situation we're talking about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2697">TS</a>]

00:45:01   with twitter struggling linkedin having some tough times and only facebook and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2701">TS</a>]

00:45:07   google really thriving in this market where people previously foresaw wow lots [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2707">TS</a>]

00:45:13   and lots of companies can have this free with AD supported business and succeed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2713">TS</a>]

00:45:17   is the fact that very very consistently over i am not even sure you could tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2717">TS</a>]

00:45:23   me the time frame but decades at least about 1.2 percent of GDP gets spent on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2723">TS</a>]

00:45:28   advertising [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2728">TS</a>]

00:45:29   yep it's it's it's amazingly consistent like so there's our average on recession [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2729">TS</a>]

00:45:35   it goes down to it goes on GP goes down it's amazing how consistent is right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2735">TS</a>]

00:45:41   advertising is and I know I'm academic essay i'm a big shot and advertising but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2741">TS</a>]

00:45:45   I do run a business that's fundamentally based on advertising i think that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2745">TS</a>]

00:45:51   nature of a knock on wood like even like 2008 you know daring fireball actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2751">TS</a>]

00:45:56   did pretty well through the recession baby because i'm a boutique you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2756">TS</a>]

00:46:02   publisher but there's absolutely no question that the adage that advertise [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2762">TS</a>]

00:46:09   in any kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2769">TS</a>]

00:46:10   recession advertiser's the first thing to dry up it is the first thing always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2770">TS</a>]

00:46:13   because that's the first thing any company when I say we might need to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2773">TS</a>]

00:46:17   tighten our spending its advertising is always the first thing to go right and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2777">TS</a>]

00:46:22   then when times are flush it is one of the first things that come rushing back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2782">TS</a>]

00:46:25   where they're like wow we've got a little money to spend [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2785">TS</a>]

00:46:28   let's fuck let's dump it in some ads and and really accelerate what you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2788">TS</a>]

00:46:32   we've got something good going on right now let's spend some advertising to make [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2792">TS</a>]

00:46:35   it go even better but it it's amazing that it's very very consistent that it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2795">TS</a>]

00:46:39   like just a little over one percent of gdp which means that it's not necessary [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2799">TS</a>]

00:46:45   that the pipe can't grow but the pie can only grow as the overall economy grows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2805">TS</a>]

00:46:50   land its there's no way to make that go and I feel like a lot of the stories i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2810">TS</a>]

00:46:56   I'm not even saying that I'm that I'm not wrong about it that I didn't think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2816">TS</a>]

00:47:00   I'm a little surprised at this situation right now we're the only big companies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2820">TS</a>]

00:47:04   that really seemed to be thriving financially and growing our Facebook and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2824">TS</a>]

00:47:08   Google the only ones i don't think i would have forcing that but i think it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2828">TS</a>]

00:47:11   makes some sense when you think of the fact that the ad spends is sort of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2831">TS</a>]

00:47:15   fixed amount of money and Facebook and Google are clearly growing and they have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2835">TS</a>]

00:47:23   they frankly have superior products i mean they have the best targeting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2843">TS</a>]

00:47:27   especially facebook i mean you know Facebook is growing much faster than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2847">TS</a>]

00:47:31   google is our particular particular mobile and other growth is on mobile [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2851">TS</a>]

00:47:35   they have superior targeting they have a superior ad placement like of people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2855">TS</a>]

00:47:40   don't appreciate like a Facebook ad literally takes over the entire screen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2860">TS</a>]

00:47:45   of your phone like a baby only for a split second or whatever but like it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2865">TS</a>]

00:47:50   the most immersive at we've come up with intact it any beyond like the pre-roll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2870">TS</a>]

00:47:55   on a video but that approval is kind of annoying right that's getting in our way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2875">TS</a>]

00:47:59   whereas where willingly but you're not using your facebook but we're really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2879">TS</a>]

00:48:04   immersing ourselves in this feed and just scrolling through in the feed is so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2884">TS</a>]

00:48:09   clear like this that's why it works so well for doing fireball right i mean you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2889">TS</a>]

00:48:12   and I always give you credit for actually being a real pioneer when it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2892">TS</a>]

00:48:15   comes to this sort of native native advertising feed based advertising is is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2895">TS</a>]

00:48:21   the advertising that works on mobile [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2901">TS</a>]

00:48:23   you came up with it before the native advertising was a word I know you did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2903">TS</a>]

00:48:27   and and it's like it is the ad format that works like every every time there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2907">TS</a>]

00:48:32   a new a new sort of medium uh it takes time to figure out the ABS at work right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2912">TS</a>]

00:48:38   the initial like TV ads for people reading radio scripts right there and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2918">TS</a>]

00:48:41   they had to figure out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2921">TS</a>]

00:48:42   no you should actually TV is for scripted drama so how about we do a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2922">TS</a>]

00:48:46   30-second scripted dramas at write and write a little 30 the best ads are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2926">TS</a>]

00:48:49   always little 30-second shows right exactly and so with what we started out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2929">TS</a>]

00:48:55   it is you see we started with web pages were just like plastering on these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2935">TS</a>]

00:48:58   banner ads because that's kinda what we do with newspapers right and who better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2938">TS</a>]

00:49:01   isn't there who had a beautiful protagonist of your little story than a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2941">TS</a>]

00:49:05   about up we are this is a very this is a very tightly it were pretty a real bow [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2945">TS</a>]

00:49:11   and anthropomorphic human bowel infected in the diarrhea there's a lovable [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2951">TS</a>]

00:49:18   character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2958">TS</a>]

00:49:19   no but you're right you gotta find and sometimes it's natural and sometimes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2959">TS</a>]

00:49:23   it's not and they always try to cram the last one onto the new black banner ads [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2963">TS</a>]

00:49:29   work we're basically lifting newspaper type advertising and putting on the web [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2969">TS</a>]

00:49:33   and it was dumped it made no sense [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2973">TS</a>]

00:49:34   I especially no sense because if you think about it i would say is a little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2974">TS</a>]

00:49:38   bit more like magazines and newspapers first thing just because the shape of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2978">TS</a>]

00:49:41   the rectangle is a little bit the rectangle of a web page is a little bit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2981">TS</a>]

00:49:45   more like a magazine especially in the nineties when the format was invented [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2985">TS</a>]

00:49:50   and screens were smaller it was a little bit more like a magazine its but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2990">TS</a>]

00:49:53   magazines and newspapers are kind of two sides of the same coin when it comes to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2993">TS</a>]

00:49:56   advertising formats right there's a whole page ads but that banner ads were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/2996">TS</a>]

00:50:02   like the ads in the back of the magazine right right the blue you know little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3002">TS</a>]

00:50:06   shapes of rectangles with content flowing around them the in in in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3006">TS</a>]

00:50:10   magazines and newspapers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3010">TS</a>]

00:50:12   I mean they the ones that made all the money where the full-page ads right the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3012">TS</a>]

00:50:16   backpage plated it was more if they will magazine a particular you think of like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3016">TS</a>]

00:50:21   the classic example like fashion magazine sort of thing if it actually is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3021">TS</a>]

00:50:25   more like a feed if you think about it right because you're you're you're not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3025">TS</a>]

00:50:29   jumping around you flip through those right yeah exactly it is very analogous [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3029">TS</a>]

00:50:33   to like an Instagram feed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3033">TS</a>]

00:50:36   exactly this is why this way I i I've always been a I think native advertising [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3036">TS</a>]

00:50:42   that a really bad rap because of some really egregious examples of people like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3042">TS</a>]

00:50:46   you know being you're abusing and doing dumb stuff advertorials write it right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3046">TS</a>]

00:50:53   that was act things that were written to sort of conflated what was actually the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3053">TS</a>]

00:50:56   content of the publication and the this thing that was written by a sponsor I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3056">TS</a>]

00:51:02   mean the family there's always been terrible writing on all formats right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3062">TS</a>]

00:51:05   but that doesn't mean the idea of having and add that is a similar of a similar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3065">TS</a>]

00:51:11   type to the content that is around it is a bad thing that's that's how effective [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3071">TS</a>]

00:51:17   advertising has always been I mean no one's up in arms because you flip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3077">TS</a>]

00:51:21   through a fashion magazine and on one page there's there's editorial on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3081">TS</a>]

00:51:24   next page there's you know an ad like that that that's a good things into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3084">TS</a>]

00:51:29   meeting with TV I mean yes you may be annoyed by it but no one is like up and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3089">TS</a>]

00:51:34   ethical arms because uh oh my gosh they also scripted this television commercial [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3094">TS</a>]

00:51:40   i mean like that's that's just the way that's just way it is I and the feed is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3100">TS</a>]

00:51:44   is really the key to digital advertising you immerse yourself in it you go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3104">TS</a>]

00:51:49   through it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3109">TS</a>]

00:51:49   the problem is how it is why work during fireball people go to daring fireball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3109">TS</a>]

00:51:53   write your percentage of people who go straight to the homepage I don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3113">TS</a>]

00:51:57   what it is but I'm sure it's much higher than the vast majority websites are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3117">TS</a>]

00:52:00   getting traffic through social or other through other feats basically and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3120">TS</a>]

00:52:06   think that's the real key to making advertising work is you have to own a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3126">TS</a>]

00:52:09   destination that people go to and willingly immerse themselves in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3129">TS</a>]

00:52:13   feed they scroll through they read your your your advertisements just like they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3133">TS</a>]

00:52:18   read your other pieces so they're actually consuming them in their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3138">TS</a>]

00:52:21   habituated to click on the link and follow through and uh and that's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3141">TS</a>]

00:52:26   advertising that works the problem is a particularly on mobile uh people where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3146">TS</a>]

00:52:32   do people start way they they start on Twitter and my Twitter still has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3152">TS</a>]

00:52:36   potential [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3156">TS</a>]

00:52:37   I it but the vast majority of people the vast vast majority people start on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3157">TS</a>]

00:52:41   facebook that that's that's the app they open when they're doing nothing nothing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3161">TS</a>]

00:52:46   to is is advertising works best when you're not doing something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3166">TS</a>]

00:52:49   right if I'm sitting down to do a job or to accomplish something i'm focused and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3169">TS</a>]

00:52:55   I don't want to be distracted that's why I think the priest the pre-roll ads on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3175">TS</a>]

00:53:00   videos i think is is going to turn out to be less effective format and people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3180">TS</a>]

00:53:04   had hoped they would be the evidence video so it's going to be effective but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3184">TS</a>]

00:53:08   it's an interruption which not know you could put you in a bad mood [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3188">TS</a>]

00:53:12   Dom always does and it often i often stop and dad just close the tap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3192">TS</a>]

00:53:18   I and especially and I know it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3198">TS</a>]

00:53:22   my tolerance for it has grown slightly like but the ones when they make you say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3202">TS</a>]

00:53:27   you have to watch the whole 30 then it's instant close i don't care what it is i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3207">TS</a>]

00:53:31   don't know that i may be like once or twice a month i'll wait through the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3211">TS</a>]

00:53:35   whole 30 because it really seems like something i have to see but it it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3215">TS</a>]

00:53:40   doesn't and when I can stop skipping after three seconds i skip it every time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3220">TS</a>]

00:53:47   I can do maybe remember once in this like the last two or three months where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3227">TS</a>]

00:53:52   there was something that was so compelling there was I don't know I'll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3232">TS</a>]

00:53:55   never remember this but there was like there was a YouTube at one time and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3235">TS</a>]

00:53:59   could have skipped it within three seconds but i was instantly like oh I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3239">TS</a>]

00:54:02   got to see this and it was really pretty clever and I was like wow that was that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3242">TS</a>]

00:54:05   was well done right but baby I know you mean you in at No 1 started a TV show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3245">TS</a>]

00:54:11   with the advertising at the beginning right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3251">TS</a>]

00:54:13   he was always would be in the middle right you have the cliffhanger and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3253">TS</a>]

00:54:16   go to commercial and then you'd know you know man who has great pre-rolls Geico [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3256">TS</a>]

00:54:20   gecko has a series of pre-rolls that that are the gist of it is this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3260">TS</a>]

00:54:26   this adds going to be at this ad for geico is going to be over before you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3266">TS</a>]

00:54:29   even skip it right just they just buy like a four second spot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3269">TS</a>]

00:54:33   no I think that that's that's the way to do it right and it really leaves leaves [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3273">TS</a>]

00:54:37   me with this incredibly your graph of them from not wasting your time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3277">TS</a>]

00:55:14   culture like whatever i guess it's it's found time it's in your posture is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3314">TS</a>]

00:55:19   you're not doing anything you're just kind of mindlessly going through it and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3319">TS</a>]

00:55:24   that sounds bad but that's actually makes it an incredible advertising [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3324">TS</a>]

00:55:53   spent on mobile devices it's the kind of time that is spent and and they have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3353">TS</a>]

00:55:58   this feed and they have this great ad format and frankly if you're an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3358">TS</a>]

00:56:02   advertiser like why would you want to go you know why would you want to go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3362">TS</a>]

00:56:10   is still going to user base and there's still facebook last quarter and it you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3370">TS</a>]

00:56:14   shouldn't be able to happen but it happened they get they got they got more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3374">TS</a>]

00:56:18   users their users use the product more than ever had before they increase the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3378">TS</a>]

00:56:24   ad low per user so people are seeing more ads and they increase the price [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3384">TS</a>]

00:56:28   charged per ad because they're so effective they can do that like they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3388">TS</a>]

00:56:52   advertisers want no return on their investment and it and so one facebook is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3412">TS</a>]

00:56:55   Right the best return to the best ads but also there's an investment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3415">TS</a>]

00:56:58   standpoint Facebook's offering and then product you go and you can do you can do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3418">TS</a>]

00:57:03   a video ad on Instagram uh anyone who sees it will show them at their facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3423">TS</a>]

00:57:08   feed that kind of reminds them of the product and then if you have a promotion [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3428">TS</a>]

00:57:12   you can have you know different things involve a messenger like it's an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3432">TS</a>]

00:57:41   think Google's less compelling on mobile generally but they also google has be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3461">TS</a>]

00:57:45   even better tools advertising tools the end and offering from YouTube [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3465">TS</a>]

01:00:29   points you know this whole internet you'll actually like is based on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3629">TS</a>]

01:00:31   fact that you most people work in a place where they have a quote-unquote [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3631">TS</a>]

01:00:35   internet and it's this thing that people hate and that they try to work around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3635">TS</a>]

01:00:38   igloo is like embracing the word and they're trying to like just flip it on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3638">TS</a>]

01:00:43   its head because it's really really clever software modern stuff that is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3643">TS</a>]

01:01:30   the heat i am there is a degree of i-i've been right one area and what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3690">TS</a>]

01:01:39   about advertising is for publishing perspective just because publishers are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3699">TS</a>]

01:01:44   there they're the least equipped I mean if Twitter can't compete with facebook i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3704">TS</a>]

01:01:49   mean what chances like your your local newspaper have arm and so I've been your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3709">TS</a>]

01:01:55   writing for a few years now there's gonna be kind of a shakeout you know not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3715">TS</a>]

01:01:59   just it's been having newspapers for a long time but with a digital-first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3719">TS</a>]

01:02:02   platforms as well armed and the hope is that in the long run there's gonna be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3722">TS</a>]

01:02:08   here neways demonisation things that are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3728">TS</a>]

01:02:12   you know things that work well what time along in a bit just I keep thinking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3732">TS</a>]

01:02:18   about that like i said i wanted to mention that one-point-two percent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3738">TS</a>]

01:02:20   spendings thing and it maybe that will change in the future who knows maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3740">TS</a>]

01:02:25   we'll go out maybe go down but it's been consistent for so long that you kinda [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3745">TS</a>]

01:02:28   gotta count on it and therefore go back to the nineties and the web is erupting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3748">TS</a>]

01:02:32   if there was any idea in your head that the web was going to get some amount of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3752">TS</a>]

01:02:36   advertising money then it was obviously going to come away from existing sources [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3756">TS</a>]

01:02:40   and I think it was obvious that the most existing most obvious place where it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3760">TS</a>]

01:02:44   going to come away from his newspapers and if newspapers wanted to to maintain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3764">TS</a>]

01:02:51   any kind of even stagnation let alone growth but at least no not deflate they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3771">TS</a>]

01:02:58   needed to immediately embrace it and make sure that they were selling as much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3778">TS</a>]

01:03:01   money on advertising on the web as possible and very very few of them did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3781">TS</a>]

01:03:05   what I just you know it's hard it's it's easy to sit in your armchair quarterback [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3785">TS</a>]

01:03:11   but it's hard to really change your fundamental business you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3791">TS</a>]

01:03:13   particularly given the better rates that could always the guy was good for print [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3793">TS</a>]

01:03:17   but I i think one thing that that's potentially x exciting in the very long [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3797">TS</a>]

01:03:22   run and ice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3802">TS</a>]

01:03:23   I always has to stay tuned for exciting because this is excitement that entails [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3803">TS</a>]

01:03:27   a lot of a lot of you know creative destruction along the way with arm is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3807">TS</a>]

01:03:32   it's always you might there to wake Twitter would be better off today if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3812">TS</a>]

01:03:39   they would have not pursued an app based business model like if they would have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3819">TS</a>]

01:03:44   figured out some way to because again they what they have is incredibly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3824">TS</a>]

01:03:49   valuable and I think the real danger before now actually this kind of changed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3829">TS</a>]

01:03:54   my tune a bit is like they need to not lose what they have right they need to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3834">TS</a>]

01:03:58   be very careful use the big the big problem for twitter is one of over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3838">TS</a>]

01:04:04   $MONEY billion people are around a billion people have tried the product [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3844">TS</a>]

01:04:06   and left it and it's really hard to get people to come back like it's much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3846">TS</a>]

01:04:10   harder than the first time it's an amazing number right it really is an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3850">TS</a>]

01:04:14   amazing number i mean that's incredible [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3854">TS</a>]

01:04:17   I so won its questions they can get them back but to our Twitter it is competing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3857">TS</a>]

01:04:26   very different environment now whereas you know what Twitter was computer came [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3866">TS</a>]

01:04:30   along right when the iphone came along or year before and it really took off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3870">TS</a>]

01:04:34   once there were like clients on the focus was such a perfect mobile product [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3874">TS</a>]

01:04:38   like it had the feed the end it had it was small bite-sized sort of stuff you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3878">TS</a>]

01:04:42   can dip it and dip out so easily [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3882">TS</a>]

01:04:45   it just fit mobile so well and there's a real opportunity where people were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3885">TS</a>]

01:04:49   forming habits they were forming the way they interact with these devices and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3889">TS</a>]

01:04:54   it wasn't just when Twitter was competing for users in 2009-2010 they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3894">TS</a>]

01:05:00   were competing for that mobile habit and today that people's habits are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3900">TS</a>]

01:05:06   well-established like and it's mostly Facebook and Facebook is also now's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3906">TS</a>]

01:05:11   facebook has expanded far beyond who you know like to what you're interested in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3911">TS</a>]

01:05:15   facebook knows more about what you're interested in and then Twitter it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3915">TS</a>]

01:05:18   Twitter does arm and the like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3918">TS</a>]

01:05:22   it's very legitimate questions like does twitter is it really realistic to expect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3922">TS</a>]

01:05:28   we're two ever grow to user base and if it's not and I would contend it's not uh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3928">TS</a>]

01:05:34   then Twitter should actually be focused first and foremost on preserving its [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3934">TS</a>]

01:05:39   user base which would argue against changes that are too extreme what are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3939">TS</a>]

01:05:44   you for addressing you know abuse issues and stuff like that that drive people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3944">TS</a>]

01:05:48   away from the platform arm and uh and i'm not sure that uh twitter twitter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3948">TS</a>]

01:05:56   agrees with that and so I then there's a real danger for the company that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3956">TS</a>]

01:06:00   pursue an unattainable goal and then what they have in the meantime I kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3960">TS</a>]

01:06:05   feel like even with Jack back at the helm which I I I do feel like if anybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3965">TS</a>]

01:06:10   can fix it at him but I do feel that there's just this inherent conflict [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3970">TS</a>]

01:06:15   between their internal ambitions and a realistic a measure of what it couldn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3975">TS</a>]

01:06:22   should be yeah and you also have to feel like you at this point you always have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3982">TS</a>]

01:06:26   to kind of hope they get acquired arm know that is where i was going to go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3986">TS</a>]

01:06:30   yeah yeah I me the there a nice like arm you know they're like they're arguably [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3990">TS</a>]

01:06:38   still overvalued based on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3998">TS</a>]

01:06:39   on on their potential revenue i'm not a stock analyst but arm uh they but with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/3999">TS</a>]

01:06:47   you know with under someone someone else if they could be free from the restraint [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4007">TS</a>]

01:06:51   either one build a new kind of business or to just be be part of portfolio on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4011">TS</a>]

01:06:57   the problem big problem is you know they're there do a two wires that really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4017">TS</a>]

01:07:00   makes sense of our google or facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4020">TS</a>]

01:07:03   yeah who already asked a lot of all the infrastructure could plug twitter in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4023">TS</a>]

01:07:07   problem google is facebook twitter did this big deal with with with google to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4027">TS</a>]

01:07:12   give them access to the tweet to the fire hose and in a great double click [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4032">TS</a>]

01:07:17   with their with their ad buying platform so in medical school already has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4037">TS</a>]

01:07:21   everything from twitter that they need like they don't necessarily need to buy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4041">TS</a>]

01:07:25   them to get what they already have uh I think the menu and a disc problem [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4045">TS</a>]

01:07:30   unplug that the fireplug them 10 I mean to Twitter do it no google is getting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4050">TS</a>]

01:07:35   google is at Google effectively has twitter both from a product perspective [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4055">TS</a>]

01:07:40   and from an advertising perspective his Twitter like twitter is building in this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4060">TS</a>]

01:07:43   this this deep double clicking it got our integration you know integration and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4063">TS</a>]

01:07:48   so you can you use your double data and buying our stuff so facebook i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4068">TS</a>]

01:07:55   Facebook is actually the more likely require unless Google does it to prevent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4075">TS</a>]

01:08:02   facebook from buying Twitter are but that's really the the two candidates i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4082">TS</a>]

01:08:07   did Josh Topolsky podcast a couple days ago we could go tomorrow and you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4087">TS</a>]

01:08:11   it's always fun doing the show with him but because i feel like we fight so much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4091">TS</a>]

01:08:14   and we talked about this and I just said in broad terms [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4094">TS</a>]

01:08:22   facebook has been one of the things I'm surprised about in the last few years is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4102">TS</a>]

01:08:26   that Facebook has been a very good steward of acquisitions and Instagram is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4106">TS</a>]

01:08:30   my favorite example because when facebook bought instagram i thought well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4110">TS</a>]

01:08:33   that there goes a thing I'll you know I really like Instagram I'm sure it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4113">TS</a>]

01:08:38   going to go downhill and they're gonna record and instead it's they've more or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4118">TS</a>]

01:08:42   less left it alone and let them evolve it in a way that's very natural to what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4122">TS</a>]

01:08:47   Instagram set out to be from the get-go you know if anything all they've done is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4127">TS</a>]

01:08:52   just adds [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4132">TS</a>]

01:08:53   port better better tech on the backend you know and they've let them grow very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4133">TS</a>]

01:08:58   organically and that google is not so good as an acquisition you know that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4138">TS</a>]

01:09:04   they hire a lot of things in rectum and some people pointed out to me that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4144">TS</a>]

01:09:08   actually I I may ask I think I maybe I'm overlooking that and maybe i'm also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4148">TS</a>]

01:09:12   overlooking that the transition from google to alphabet in that there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4152">TS</a>]

01:09:17   companies i will nest that google now alphabet acquired and as let stand alone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4157">TS</a>]

01:09:22   as as their own entity and let them be their own thing and not have to answer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4162">TS</a>]

01:09:27   to you know the wall street on their own and that maybe it would be you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4167">TS</a>]

01:09:31   don't think it is a google acquisition a twitter but think of it as an alphabet [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4171">TS</a>]

01:09:34   acquisition and Twitter and they let Twitter be Twitter but only value is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4174">TS</a>]

01:09:39   being a part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4179">TS</a>]

01:09:40   yeah that's are going well it was about that is being a part of google though [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4180">TS</a>]

01:09:43   because death it because you can't forget the money making part of it like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4183">TS</a>]

01:09:47   the the a department what's cool watches like some sort of like fashion project i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4187">TS</a>]

01:09:51   mean frankly facebook would be better choir like Facebook is an unbelievably [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4191">TS</a>]

01:09:56   well-run company i like it and that the acquisition . you made our part of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4196">TS</a>]

01:10:01   are they mark zuckerberg has been very explicit about how he thinks about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4201">TS</a>]

01:10:06   growing and developing products and where they get the product right first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4206">TS</a>]

01:10:11   they grow the user base only with a certain level do they slowly figure out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4211">TS</a>]

01:10:16   then they build a business presence and then they monetize the business presence [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4216">TS</a>]

01:10:20   you know it in a way that makes sense and it's easy to say oh well it's easy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4220">TS</a>]

01:10:25   for facebook XR making money so they can afford to take the time with instagram [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4225">TS</a>]

01:10:28   they can afford in no time with whatsapp but people forget that facebook was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4228">TS</a>]

01:10:32   under a lot of pressure after the IPO their their stock was also down by like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4232">TS</a>]

01:10:36   have they they were getting a ton of pressure and Facebook did not do the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4236">TS</a>]

01:10:40   easy thing they didn't just start slapping up ads right they took time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4240">TS</a>]

01:10:44   they rebuilt their mobile that their entire mobile stack they redid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4244">TS</a>]

01:10:47   everything they realize that they didn't take the wrong approach with html5 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4247">TS</a>]

01:10:50   approach they rebuilt it made a great experience got people on board and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4250">TS</a>]

01:10:56   they figure out how to monetize it and then in the again it's the best digital [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4256">TS</a>]

01:11:01   ad you ever seen and and now it's just it's it's it's a money spigot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4261">TS</a>]

01:11:06   and the point is even when times were hard they were disciplined and focused [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4266">TS</a>]

01:11:11   on getting the experience right first and then deleted the company's like they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4271">TS</a>]

01:11:17   dig the understand this space the internet social i think they'd be the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4277">TS</a>]

01:11:21   best stewards of Twitter are as much as that rankles Twitter on Twitter users in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4281">TS</a>]

01:11:26   particular uh but I mean who knows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4286">TS</a>]

01:11:30   here's here in this to me is a sign of how run and again i say this i feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4290">TS</a>]

01:11:34   i'm an interesting position I because somebody who does not use facebook but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4294">TS</a>]

01:11:39   do admire them and I do recognize that they are very well-run company Dustin [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4299">TS</a>]

01:11:43   Curtis had a tweet last week days after everybody released earnings I'm gonna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4303">TS</a>]

01:11:47   trust his numbers i didn't double-check them so there's an area of publisher [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4307">TS</a>]

01:11:50   correction next week but I trust Dustin Curtis that he went through all these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4310">TS</a>]

01:11:54   companies you know that the you know the revenue that the the financial things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4314">TS</a>]

01:11:58   that they filed last week and its revenue per employee for calendar year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4318">TS</a>]

01:12:03   2015 yahoo was 400 19,000 Twitter 462 thousand microsoft almost double that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4323">TS</a>]

01:12:11   789 thousand google 1,000,000 161,000 per employee facebook 1,000,000 412 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4331">TS</a>]

01:12:23   thousand dollars per employee $MONEY in revenue and then at the top of the pile [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4343">TS</a>]

01:12:28   was apple with little bit over two million in revenue right her employee [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4348">TS</a>]

01:12:33   which is a really a mean it's okay so it's closer to apple and microsoft and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4353">TS</a>]

01:12:39   revenue for employee that is very true and I and they're well ahead of google [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4359">TS</a>]

01:12:45   right and they're growing like they they're like the revenue was up like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4365">TS</a>]

01:12:49   forty percent last year something but rather they're catching up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4369">TS</a>]

01:12:52   that to me is really really those numbers really fit with my gut feeling [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4372">TS</a>]

01:12:59   of how well run these companies are you know and and how efficient they are how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4379">TS</a>]

01:13:04   well organized they are like whenever i hear about Twitter's headcount I'm just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4384">TS</a>]

01:13:07   blown away like 4000 or something with that like just little things like I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4387">TS</a>]

01:13:13   heard at army and this might have been reduced recently but at one point like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4393">TS</a>]

01:13:16   last year that they had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4396">TS</a>]

01:13:18   hundred iOS engineers and their iOS apps quite frankly or shit I mean maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4398">TS</a>]

01:13:23   that's why you know there's there's there might be a very strong two lines [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4403">TS</a>]

01:13:26   like Nvidia yeah and too many chefs spoil the you know Stuart whatever the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4406">TS</a>]

01:13:31   hell you're making and you know the mythical I'd like we would hike with my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4411">TS</a>]

01:13:35   metaphors with his picture mall you know throw in a what's-his-name's mythical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4415">TS</a>]

01:13:40   man month month there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4420">TS</a>]

01:13:42   yes you know that a hundred iOS engineers really it not only does it not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4422">TS</a>]

01:13:46   get you a better app faster it gets you a worse app but I it's it's almost mine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4426">TS</a>]

01:13:52   instagram has like ten right or something like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4432">TS</a>]

01:13:55   I it's not a big my understanding at least is that it's not a big engineering [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4435">TS</a>]

01:13:59   crew at all and at the very least they had up until the point where facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4439">TS</a>]

01:14:05   acquired them their their engineering team was easily fit around a conference [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4445">TS</a>]

01:14:09   table [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4449">TS</a>]

01:14:10   yep really interesting numbers and Facebook's numbers are really astounding [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4450">TS</a>]

01:14:16   and if you think about it not profits revenue per employee and that's where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4456">TS</a>]

01:14:20   you know the one company that sticks out here is Apple because apples a hardware [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4460">TS</a>]

01:14:24   company and so it is it easier in some ways for Apple to generate revenue and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4464">TS</a>]

01:14:32   it's you know that there's a remarkable story with apples you are too big of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4472">TS</a>]

01:14:36   attention to go into here but that Apple's profit is so high because their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4476">TS</a>]

01:14:41   margins are so probably the most abnormal thing about Apple as a company [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4481">TS</a>]

01:14:44   and there's a lot of things that are abnormal about Apple are their profit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4484">TS</a>]

01:14:48   margins on on hardware and in an inn in all of these industries may be other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4488">TS</a>]

01:14:54   than watches where the margins are notoriously small the margins are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4494">TS</a>]

01:14:59   notoriously small in the pc market they're notoriously small in the phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4499">TS</a>]

01:15:04   market [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4504">TS</a>]

01:15:05   I mean they're negative for some of these companies in the cell phone market [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4505">TS</a>]

01:15:07   but it is easier for Apple to generate just revenue because it's they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4507">TS</a>]

01:15:13   selling you know eight-hundred-dollar phones and and $1,500 macbooks whereas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4513">TS</a>]

01:15:18   facebook is making all that revenue on you know a buck or two at a time on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4518">TS</a>]

01:15:24   these ad ad views [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4524">TS</a>]

01:15:25   yep no it is no it is remarkable stats are you actually just the Dustin posted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4525">TS</a>]

01:15:32   the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4532">TS</a>]

01:15:32   profit from play as well okay uh yeah it's right below it I so Apple start the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4532">TS</a>]

01:15:36   top our for 465,000 per employee facebook second second again 290,000 per [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4536">TS</a>]

01:15:43   employee which is again a fantastic number google 250,000 per employee [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4543">TS</a>]

01:15:47   microsoft 202,000 per employee yahoo 54,000 per employee and twitter- 130,000 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4547">TS</a>]

01:15:55   primarily with a really matters to Twitter's and 10 years old in right in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4555">TS</a>]

01:16:01   in a month like that that's the problem people think what all Twitter could do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4561">TS</a>]

01:16:05   this Twitter could do that that they could do should be happening when you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4565">TS</a>]

01:16:08   three years older you're four years old [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4568">TS</a>]

01:16:10   not when you're 10 years old and a public company it is true i mean i'd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4570">TS</a>]

01:16:14   still kind of chop them up as sort of a newbie you know that you know like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4574">TS</a>]

01:16:18   somehow google is established and facebook even though it's a similar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4578">TS</a>]

01:16:23   vintage like it act so mature but it it given credit for it and there's some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4583">TS</a>]

01:16:30   part of me that has been tricked into giving Twitter a little bit more slack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4590">TS</a>]

01:16:34   on they'll figure it out there you know they're still new [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/4594">TS</a>]

01:26:38   revenue from 2008 2014 and then you use that to forecast uh to forecast 2015 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5198">TS</a>]

01:26:48   2016 uh Apple significantly outperformed uh what you would expect them to in 2016 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5208">TS</a>]

01:26:56   so they're their earnings that they just reported to the 16 quarter one were were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5216">TS</a>]

01:27:19   massive it was like 50 or 60 billion more than you would expect or something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5239">TS</a>]

01:27:25   like that right at it it the the year-over-year comparison [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5245">TS</a>]

01:27:28   they barely beat last year and actually if you look at the inventory numbers in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5248">TS</a>]

01:27:32   the cell through numbers they probably slightly under center for me is very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5252">TS</a>]

01:27:36   close either going under for next quarter and and I look at that and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5256">TS</a>]

01:27:44   don't buy the iphone has peaks narrative arm i think that Apple there was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5264">TS</a>]

01:27:51   one-time event that there was a combination of polling sales forward [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5271">TS</a>]

01:27:55   like people upgrade earlier than they would have but if that was all that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5275">TS</a>]

01:27:59   happening then this sales this year would have been significantly less than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5279">TS</a>]

01:28:04   they were right the fact that they managed to stay the same and he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5284">TS</a>]

01:28:08   looking backwards were well above what you would have expected in 2014 suggest [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5288">TS</a>]

01:28:13   that they really did take a huge chunk of non iphone customers they're a bunch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5293">TS</a>]

01:28:18   of new customers apple and uh those customers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5298">TS</a>]

01:28:22   Apple has fantastic retention numbers people buy an iphone by another iphone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5302">TS</a>]

01:28:26   that suggests that the iphones growth is going to continue our and so I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5306">TS</a>]

01:28:32   that this year apple announced announced at stock analyst a lot of things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5312">TS</a>]

01:28:37   only in trouble arm but i think it's gonna be down this year because the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5317">TS</a>]

01:28:42   year-over-year comparison be tough but actually I think that they're in a lot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5322">TS</a>]

01:28:47   better shape than people think in that 2017 is going to be is going to be a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5327">TS</a>]

01:28:51   much better year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5331">TS</a>]

01:28:52   uh for them and I feel like they go through this on a regular cyclical basis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5332">TS</a>]

01:28:59   because the last downturn was around sometimes in calendar 2013 and it's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5339">TS</a>]

01:29:06   a year after Steve Jobs died and everybody was banging the drum on you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5346">TS</a>]

01:29:11   know they're doomed without steve jobs and Samsung was putting in record [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5351">TS</a>]

01:29:17   numbers and there was this narrative that the a no and there was there wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5357">TS</a>]

01:29:25   even a little bit of truth to it which is that there was clearly consumer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5365">TS</a>]

01:29:28   demand for big phones and apples biggest phone was four inches which wasn't big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5368">TS</a>]

01:29:33   so that was actually a true part of it i mean that even came out in the lawsuit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5373">TS</a>]

01:29:39   where there was an email i think from phil schiller that was again entered [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5379">TS</a>]

01:29:43   into evidence but it said you know people want big phones we don't have pic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5383">TS</a>]

01:29:46   phones right now and this narrative was that you know apples time at the top is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5386">TS</a>]

01:29:52   over and Samsung's eating their lunch and the stock was really depressed and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5392">TS</a>]

01:29:55   then all of a sudden you know the iphone 6 comes out and it's huge hit and it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5395">TS</a>]

01:30:01   like Oh apples back but it's really you know it was all very predictable it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5401">TS</a>]

01:30:06   like you know they just sort of got there there the long time frame that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5406">TS</a>]

01:30:09   they have to you know the downside of wow they sell 75 million phones in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5409">TS</a>]

01:30:17   first quarter when they're did that they've been made available [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5417">TS</a>]

01:30:20   is that the way that you can do that is by having the pipeline be like 18 months [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5420">TS</a>]

01:30:24   long and they got caught behind that the pipeline on when they could come out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5424">TS</a>]

01:30:27   with a close to five inch phone and over 5 inch phone was behind that the market [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5427">TS</a>]

01:30:34   move faster donated and there was a naught but then the rumors came out and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5434">TS</a>]

01:30:38   therefore there was also this clearly a lot of a lot of casual people-not people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5438">TS</a>]

01:30:43   like us you know go and check out macrumors com every day and see that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5443">TS</a>]

01:30:47   stuff like that but just normal people were like I hear apples coming out with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5447">TS</a>]

01:30:51   a big phone i'm going to wait [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5451">TS</a>]

01:30:54   yeah with the existing the thing the thing that where it's different now i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5454">TS</a>]

01:30:58   think those are all spot-on and and that year 2014 was down a bit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5458">TS</a>]

01:31:03   our relatives to you but they the Apple was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5463">TS</a>]

01:31:06   growing right there there the difference now is I it is and out objective fact [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5466">TS</a>]

01:31:13   that iphone sales are flat and right next quarter we're going to go down so i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5473">TS</a>]

01:31:18   think that the the narrative back then i think was fueled by this a misguided [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5478">TS</a>]

01:31:27   understanding of why Apple maintain is able to maintain those margins and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5487">TS</a>]

01:31:32   profits and I think people are are a little smarter about that now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5492">TS</a>]

01:31:35   I mean that's where I really got you know got my start uh you know I wrote a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5495">TS</a>]

01:31:40   big thing saying like why disruptions advocates got Apple Apple so wrong and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5500">TS</a>]

01:31:45   actually one of my earliest pieces was predicting that Samsung was in for a big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5505">TS</a>]

01:31:49   fall arm and I mean button relatively speaking for people who understood Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5509">TS</a>]

01:31:55   work there's a little bit of shooting fish in a barrel right the end and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5515">TS</a>]

01:31:59   numbers were on our side Apple was still growing the biggest always is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5519">TS</a>]

01:32:03   objectively speaking the numbers are going down but you can't ignore the fact [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5523">TS</a>]

01:32:07   that like last year was so unbelievably extraordinary I mean the numbers were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5527">TS</a>]

01:32:14   just off the charts and uh and it on one hand it's gonna always be hard to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5534">TS</a>]

01:32:22   compare to other numbers but if you take out that one year this year is still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5542">TS</a>]

01:32:27   better than would be expected and i think that's that key point is is being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5547">TS</a>]

01:32:31   missed arm and so yeah so like what you're saying let's just say we take out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5551">TS</a>]

01:32:36   the 2015 numbers we take them out and we leave in twenty twelve thirteen fourteen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5556">TS</a>]

01:32:43   fifteen a blank and we go and we show the first of $MONTH 2016 and then we say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5563">TS</a>]

01:32:48   now you draw an imaginary line for where you think 2015 went based on what you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5568">TS</a>]

01:32:54   saw at the end of $MONTH 2014 and where we are now and you probably just draw [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5574">TS</a>]

01:32:57   like this night it looks like a real nice slope [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5577">TS</a>]

01:32:59   yeah I have the exact numbers actually if you do if you forecast linearly from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5579">TS</a>]

01:33:03   2000-2014 then 2015 you would have expected to sell 200 million if you do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5583">TS</a>]

01:33:09   logistic regression like an S curve which is actually the data would suggest [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5589">TS</a>]

01:33:12   arm then you would expect 278 million Apple actually sold 230 million [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5592">TS</a>]

01:33:19   so they they exceeded what you would have forecast by 30 to 50 million [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5599">TS</a>]

01:33:24   iphones which would like a really strong better like an entire really gets more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5604">TS</a>]

01:33:28   iphones that's more iphones they sold in 2010 right and like more than they sold [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5608">TS</a>]

01:33:33   in any quarter other than the holiday quarter right that was it wasn't it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5613">TS</a>]

01:33:36   insane and and in think they just added a quarter to their calendar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5616">TS</a>]

01:33:41   yeah in within a single quarter and so if you do that same sort of thing and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5621">TS</a>]

01:33:45   you've rejected again you only had 8 2014 said I what do you thinks gonna be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5625">TS</a>]

01:33:49   2016 again if you do a linear uh it which it be 230 million if you do a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5629">TS</a>]

01:33:56   winner regression arm it would be a good sorry logistic regression would be a 184 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5636">TS</a>]

01:34:02   million because cells were it was like they were peeking in and they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5642">TS</a>]

01:34:06   flattening out in 2014 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5646">TS</a>]

01:34:09   apple is on pace to sell about 230 million so either they're right on track [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5649">TS</a>]

01:34:14   with growth if youse win here or they're vastly exceeding it if you think that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5654">TS</a>]

01:34:18   growth had peaked in $MONTH 2014 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5658">TS</a>]

01:34:19   regardless the book the factories like there's there's actually not much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5659">TS</a>]

01:34:23   evidence that the only way this story makes senses of Apple got a bunch of new [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5663">TS</a>]

01:34:27   customers like in $MONTH 2015 in a one-time event and it's like well is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5667">TS</a>]

01:34:32   there any explanation for that to happen there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5672">TS</a>]

01:34:34   in fact I'm glad you asked there is they got five big screen iphones and 4g [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5674">TS</a>]

01:34:39   really carolina in China's the other real big factor [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5679">TS</a>]

01:34:42   yeah yeah and China the the basic economy I mean I know it's it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5682">TS</a>]

01:34:47   having a good time right now but in the grand scheme of things so it's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5687">TS</a>]

01:34:51   doing well we had the grand scheme of things I mean there's there's a hundreds [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5691">TS</a>]

01:34:56   of millions of people entering the middle class i mean like the scale of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5696">TS</a>]

01:34:58   China's is-is-is heart is hard to comprehend its but it's it's it's very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5698">TS</a>]

01:35:03   large Jimmy actually this is a point is a spectrum cook now ever always causes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5703">TS</a>]

01:35:07   Mackenzie study about about the number of middle-class people coming in China [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5707">TS</a>]

01:35:12   which he never quoted until until I uh earnings college couple quarters ago and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5712">TS</a>]

01:35:18   i happen to have included a daily update before them so I don't think he read it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5718">TS</a>]

01:35:23   but I like to think that someone found the link and then and then for its been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5723">TS</a>]

01:35:27   an everythin everything scholar since ok it's like it it's a relatively obscure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5727">TS</a>]

01:35:31   study are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5731">TS</a>]

01:35:32   but that's like that's i put myself to bed at night so here's an iphone related [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5732">TS</a>]

01:35:38   thing and I wanted to do I knew I wanted to shoot past you and see what you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5738">TS</a>]

01:35:43   to say a reader let me try to paraphrase it is let's do that the a let's let's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5743">TS</a>]

01:35:51   accept that the rumors about next month's new iphone are true that there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5751">TS</a>]

01:35:55   a new 4 inch model that supposedly called the 5se it doesn't really make a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5755">TS</a>]

01:36:01   lot of sense to me but that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5761">TS</a>]

01:36:03   let's analyze a lot of apples beings don't yeah and it's four inches and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5763">TS</a>]

01:36:10   has the specs more or less of an iphone 6 meaning it has an a that way what are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5770">TS</a>]

01:36:17   we up to that six s8 yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5777">TS</a>]

01:36:21   success has an a nine processor so that's the state-of-the-art it has so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5781">TS</a>]

01:36:26   what it has is an a8 processor the current 5s the 4-inch phone that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5786">TS</a>]

01:36:34   could go in and buy today has as a seven la for 64-bit a7 so it goes to an a8 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5794">TS</a>]

01:36:44   processor and has a camera roughly equivalent to the iphone 6 tomorrow is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5804">TS</a>]

01:36:50   it like a four inch version of the iphone 6 and it'll probably sell for out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5810">TS</a>]

01:36:55   you know same price . hundred dollars less so the question from the reader is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5815">TS</a>]

01:36:59   have they back themselves into a corner and they have to use this year old a8 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5819">TS</a>]

01:37:09   processor and camera specs because they have to hit this hundred dollar less [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5829">TS</a>]

01:37:15   than the iphone 6 price slot or is this was this part of the again they painted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5835">TS</a>]

01:37:20   themselves in the corner or have they deliberately chosen to set up that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5840">TS</a>]

01:37:24   corner because that's what they wanted all uh i mean i think that there's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5844">TS</a>]

01:37:30   idea of of having the better specs and the more expensive phone i think you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5850">TS</a>]

01:37:35   mean the readers asking why don't they make a a right price 650 dollar 5-inch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5855">TS</a>]

01:37:41   or foreign phone right i think that that what's underlying the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5861">TS</a>]

01:37:45   question did the the because they've always price by size right sort of thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5865">TS</a>]

01:37:49   yeah and I thought that it speaks to people's that there's some number of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5869">TS</a>]

01:37:52   people out there who really still want 24 inch foam but they also want but the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5872">TS</a>]

01:37:56   top-of-the-line specs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5876">TS</a>]

01:37:58   yeah there's probably an aspect to that I mean Apple Apple has always gone for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5878">TS</a>]

01:38:01   the sort of like easy to explain pricing you know like iPods were you know bar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5881">TS</a>]

01:38:07   even iphones bye-bye memory right like which is it right is very easy to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5887">TS</a>]

01:38:12   explain and very profitable and doesn't make a lot of sense given it doesn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5892">TS</a>]

01:38:19   make it easy to read all but it makes a ton of sex makes it kind of sentence [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5899">TS</a>]

01:38:22   respective because right but it doesn't make sense that it's being priced a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5902">TS</a>]

01:38:26   monument fairly is not quite the right word but but in it commensurate with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5906">TS</a>]

01:38:31   price of the component right whether this is something people always get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5911">TS</a>]

01:38:34   tripped up on right I don't know prices what the market will bear it has nothing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5914">TS</a>]

01:38:37   to do with what goes into you know what was in the product i think that's I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5917">TS</a>]

01:38:40   think that's probably uh yes I think you can look at that Apple's in a corner in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5920">TS</a>]

01:38:47   that they given the way they do their pricing arm it should be us and that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5927">TS</a>]

01:38:53   sort of thing uh you know that said arm but i think it's fair use it if it's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5933">TS</a>]

01:39:02   fair thing to say but I think it also fits their strategy i mean yeah i don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5942">TS</a>]

01:39:06   know that they found themselves here accidentally though and that they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5946">TS</a>]

01:39:09   like who you know like they're like that the analogy of painting yourself in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5949">TS</a>]

01:39:13   corner is that you turn around you realize oh I did not leave myself a way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5953">TS</a>]

01:39:16   out here and you didn't think about it when you got started I think they knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5956">TS</a>]

01:39:18   exactly what they were doing and they know that yes that this means that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5958">TS</a>]

01:39:22   anybody who wants a 4-inch phone with top-of-the-line specs does not get that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5962">TS</a>]

01:39:28   but I don't what were they watching it in the spring that's kind of weird was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5968">TS</a>]

01:39:32   just not ready or I'll wait here I'll tell you what I'll tell you what I'll do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5972">TS</a>]

01:39:36   one thing I think is interesting i think that Apple did have the strategy to our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5976">TS</a>]

01:39:42   little bit more they did the 5c arm the 5c was cheaper to produce than the five [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5982">TS</a>]

01:39:51   was that was that was I don't think there's any question that was important [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5991">TS</a>]

01:39:55   part of it and i think i suspect appleone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5995">TS</a>]

01:39:59   to keep the 5c around longer than they did yeah but I think what Apple learned [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/5999">TS</a>]

01:40:04   from that is that it didn't get it screamed that this is not this is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6004">TS</a>]

01:40:09   cheap iPhone right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6009">TS</a>]

01:40:11   it was obviously a cheap iPhone you can get whereas if you bought a 24 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6011">TS</a>]

01:40:16   fifty-dollar iphone the lowest one has available [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6016">TS</a>]

01:40:19   no one knew if that was what you bought it because the cheap i-44 use just your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6019">TS</a>]

01:40:24   expensive iPhone that was two years older when you're whatever right but he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6024">TS</a>]

01:40:27   was still an iphone 5c was never an iphone in the way that every other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6027">TS</a>]

01:40:31   iphone has been an iphone it was never the flagship and so you had no you go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6031">TS</a>]

01:40:37   ahead and so I think Apple wants to the AI think that there's things to lend [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6037">TS</a>]

01:40:42   itself to the 5c strategy was cheaper to produce are the only in the they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6042">TS</a>]

01:40:47   using components that out there that they've all left the learning curve [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6047">TS</a>]

01:40:51   they're producing them super cheaply [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6051">TS</a>]

01:40:52   I think they want that for an operational perspective they want to go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6052">TS</a>]

01:40:55   lower market I think they would like to have like a $350 phone for like India [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6055">TS</a>]

01:40:59   for example arm but they'd but they've learned they need to retain the this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6059">TS</a>]

01:41:05   an iphone sensibility I think they're trying to figure that out I suspect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6065">TS</a>]

01:41:09   that's that goes into the the 5sd they're trying to find the right balance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6069">TS</a>]

01:41:13   where how can we get all the benefits of building a phone from scratch to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6073">TS</a>]

01:41:19   cheaper as opposed to just using inexpensive opponent and cellular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6079">TS</a>]

01:41:23   forever but still maintain the this is the iphone sort of aura i think that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6083">TS</a>]

01:41:28   timing is exactly on plan and I think it makes a ton of sense and I think it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6088">TS</a>]

01:41:31   because at the low end at the high end these phones very consistent ever since [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6091">TS</a>]

01:41:36   they moved to releasing them in September instead of late June early [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6096">TS</a>]

01:41:39   July they have a almost clockwork 12-month cycle they like ever since they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6099">TS</a>]

01:41:46   moved in September it's the exact same week of sep tember that they have the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6106">TS</a>]

01:41:50   event somewhere around September tenth and then they come out 11 days later [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6110">TS</a>]

01:41:54   like the 21st or something like that which within a week every single year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6114">TS</a>]

01:41:57   it's 12 months you have a 12-month clock ticking on top of the line the bottom of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6117">TS</a>]

01:42:03   the line does not have a 12-month cycle right now the 5s has been there for 18 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6123">TS</a>]

01:42:10   months [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6130">TS</a>]

01:42:12   or it's been out more than that everyone's well that got its been at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6132">TS</a>]

01:42:17   spot where it's at for all got it got it okay right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6137">TS</a>]

01:42:21   uh no six months you because it was the 5c the 5c was sold into last step number [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6141">TS</a>]

01:42:27   III just hand nobody your holds don't know that I think I think I I don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6147">TS</a>]

01:42:36   anyway my point is that I think that this new phone that are coming out with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6156">TS</a>]

01:42:39   a march they expected be there for at least 18 months it will be there for a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6159">TS</a>]

01:42:42   long time or agree I agree no I that's exactly trying to say i think they want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6162">TS</a>]

01:42:47   to go below the 450 price point yeah i think that the 5c was supposed to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6167">TS</a>]

01:42:51   that but they it was a flop and so this is the second attempt at it i'm curious [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6171">TS</a>]

01:42:57   still curious very i'm really curious about this event next month i'm more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6177">TS</a>]

01:43:00   more interested in it than any event it in the last year i think because i have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6180">TS</a>]

01:43:05   no idea how they're gonna sell this stuff because to me it's the rumors of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6185">TS</a>]

01:43:11   stuff that could easily be released by press release you know it's there's it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6191">TS</a>]

01:43:17   here here's a key no camera quality you've seen before in performance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6197">TS</a>]

01:43:21   quality that you've seen before in a size that you've seen before and I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6201">TS</a>]

01:43:25   it's an important part of the product lineup to have it there and I know that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6205">TS</a>]

01:43:28   part of the reason that they're doing this is it is a nicer phone at four [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6208">TS</a>]

01:43:31   inches than the current 5s and it fits their overall strategy because now this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6211">TS</a>]

01:43:36   one will work with Apple pay and the 5s that doesn't have touch ID but it does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6216">TS</a>]

01:43:40   not support apple pay so now they've got an entire lineup of phones that supports [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6220">TS</a>]

01:43:44   Apple pay and you know and i think it can be on the market for a while and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6224">TS</a>]

01:43:50   they don't have to distract from last september's hey here's the brand-new [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6230">TS</a>]

01:43:54   success and success plus and we have to take five minutes and tell you about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6234">TS</a>]

01:43:57   this thing that we're not even that excited about and they don't have to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6237">TS</a>]

01:44:01   it again this sep tember when they have this iphone 7 which you know knows what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6241">TS</a>]

01:44:05   it's going to do know that the selling point will be but they don't have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6245">TS</a>]

01:44:08   mention it all they have to do it's the only time it will get mentioned is at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6248">TS</a>]

01:44:11   the very end when they talk about pricing and i'll say this the seven plus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6251">TS</a>]

01:44:16   starts at this price the seven starts a hundred dollars less at this price and a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6256">TS</a>]

01:44:21   hundred dollars less here's the you know we still have the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6261">TS</a>]

01:44:24   a 5s a year six will be at will be fascinating to see is will the iphone 6 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6264">TS</a>]

01:44:29   still exists next remember right yeah that would be 76 s and 5 SC right Bob I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6269">TS</a>]

01:44:36   i think i do think that's where they want to go like right there might be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6276">TS</a>]

01:44:39   rather than they would rather have the low in phone be built to be a low-end [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6279">TS</a>]

01:44:44   phone because there's likely if you build it from scratch you eat you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6284">TS</a>]

01:44:48   thinking using technologies but i bet you can produce a cheaper they can and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6288">TS</a>]

01:44:53   they can build it to be a phone that's meant to go even further market and i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6293">TS</a>]

01:44:56   would be surprised of your waiter then you have the 7 a-7 the arm and then a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6296">TS</a>]

01:45:01   new like a 6s yeah and then and you still have the 5se I really think they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6301">TS</a>]

01:45:07   want to go blow that 42 price . arm this have to it just needs to be an iphone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6307">TS</a>]

01:45:12   yeah and I kind of feel like they they you know and again everything gets old [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6312">TS</a>]

01:45:17   and slow at some point but I kind of feel like a with a 64-bit CPU and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6317">TS</a>]

01:45:23   NFC for touch ID are in for Apple Apple pay with touch ID that it's a camera [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6323">TS</a>]

01:45:29   that that that could remain relevant as the as the price . slowly dips over the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6329">TS</a>]

01:45:34   next 18 months to 24 months it will still be a credible phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6334">TS</a>]

01:45:40   yep totally agree anything else you see that while we were recording they came [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6340">TS</a>]

01:45:46   out with the twitter has a new feature that was rumored that they're going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6346">TS</a>]

01:45:50   let you have a setting that you can flip that will show you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6350">TS</a>]

01:45:56   tweets that they think are relevant to you at the top of your timeline and yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6356">TS</a>]

01:46:00   I i tried to get i have got the setting on my account yet follow the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6360">TS</a>]

01:46:05   International a jack jack streets is just can't get angry friend just keep [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6365">TS</a>]

01:46:13   refresh that it's like just refreshing until you get the setting are that's why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6373">TS</a>]

01:46:19   the yeah I mean we'll see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6379">TS</a>]

01:46:23   I mean it'sit's opting for now I think it's going to be isn't be it opted out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6383">TS</a>]

01:46:28   after a few weeks and the contesting arm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6388">TS</a>]

01:46:31   I like while you were away personally I i wanna go gave up on reading my tweets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6391">TS</a>]

01:46:38   oh yeah me too and I think people will read other tweets you probably use [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6398">TS</a>]

01:46:41   third-party clients anyways trailer treats in the in the regular quiet is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6401">TS</a>]

01:46:45   hopeless cause it doesn't save it spot arm so yeah I mean again I think I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6405">TS</a>]

01:46:52   I i think it's fine and they would have been sorely needed seven years ago arm i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6412">TS</a>]

01:47:00   think they need to be careful about losing what they have now are everything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6420">TS</a>]

01:47:04   it's again I like comparing I like the newspaper comparison again because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6424">TS</a>]

01:47:08   newspaper news is more widespread and popular and and value in work valuable [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6428">TS</a>]

01:47:16   than it has ever been and Twitter like we were there is we talk about twitter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6436">TS</a>]

01:47:20   with the amount of verbiage spent on Twitter relative to its importance in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6440">TS</a>]

01:47:25   like the from a business perspective or other source of his way out of whack but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6445">TS</a>]

01:47:30   it's so it I love it I know you love it and it's so much part of fabric of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6450">TS</a>]

01:47:37   everything over particular politics and sports i'm a huge NBA fan and NBA [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6457">TS</a>]

01:47:41   twitter is amazing again is all it's really the best of like them the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6461">TS</a>]

01:47:47   best possible manifestation which we could be but again it's almost hardy and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6467">TS</a>]

01:47:51   you fail to follow you giggle all things in order arm but did man how do you like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BtuzPCQoI/6471">TS</a>]
