00:21:07.220Sometimes we'll talk about that weird news story from last week.
00:21:10.540It's the one you're thinking about, trust me.
00:21:12.640Or maybe we'll talk about music and what's happening in the underground or drama and music or TV shows or the Met Gala and what the actors wore.
00:21:21.540What we're saying is we're not afraid to talk about everything under the sun.
00:21:24.720And if you want to see what that's like, come join us.
00:21:27.300It's a place where everyone can hang out.
00:21:33.900Listen out of character from Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Pods or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:51:29.940And Kyle has not been mad until the past couple weeks.
00:51:32.640Honestly, I think it would be huge, just like Logan KSI,
00:51:36.300like if they both really trained and went in.
00:51:39.320and kyle we know he just did a hundred mile run i've done a marathon to think further of going
00:51:45.720a hundred miles is insane mental fortitude and just the ability like i think would be amazing
00:51:55.820ah yeah that's a crazy that's he said in the interview yeah he did it but it took him two days
00:52:00.880yeah i don't even know how long it should take i'm gonna be honest it's funny if you look at0.69
00:52:05.720everything he says he's almost like clav we're like you know it's ridiculous but if you look at
00:52:10.060it through the vein of comedy he's very funny people appreciate authenticity man it's like
00:52:13.620it's the highest resonating frequency and people are just drawn to it like magnets clav's authentic
00:52:21.100steve appears to be authentic without hurting people one person who's quite authentic the
00:52:27.940The Backrooms movie released this past weekend to $81 million, I'm sorry, $118 million worldwide in its opening, made nearly 12 times its production budget in three days.
00:52:42.400The biggest A24 opening weekend in the history of A24 movies.
00:52:49.120We are currently in a whirlwind of creator produced movies.
00:52:55.200Between that and Obsession, I want to start with Backrooms.
00:52:57.940But what an incredible time to be a creator who has any kind of vision for something that is greater than or in a different line than just publishing on platforms.
00:53:39.920And wow, that's a really, was there anything that predates Talk To Me?
00:53:43.660Not in a major way where it was an incredibly obvious creator making a full feature film, honestly, besides airplane mode.
00:53:53.060you know you know what's crazy dude about airplane mode so we obviously made airplane mode
00:54:01.440like 10 years ago when i was literally like a child i think i think jake and i uh started what
00:54:08.220we helped write the movie i think i was 19 years old and so like stuff i thought was like funny and
00:54:14.580edgy then now i'm like whoa um but i recently saw a scene from airplane mode of all the creators
00:54:21.480going through the tsa check-in line first day of shooting and in this world that we're living in0.67
00:54:29.060it kind of played the jokes were so fucked up and we're in like a at least now trump's america0.97
00:54:37.300right wing everyone's a little bit more edgy saying things that they was only they could0.92
00:54:41.620only think about four years ago and so i was watching the scene i went yo this movie um0.89
00:54:47.060is fucking horrible but this seems kind of funny this is so what just wrong place wrong time0.52
00:54:57.480yeah wrong time no i mean there was no there was no adult supervision we were all so young0.98
00:55:03.280first timers we got lucky for people taking a chance on us had there been a little guidance
00:55:08.840and supervision it had an amazing chance yeah i think i mean look i could i could pick it apart
00:55:15.080But what I'm saying is like to your point, creators now with a platform and tens of thousands of hours making videos online and getting feedback and learning how to storytell and developing a loop of creation that makes you really good at your craft now have the ability to make what they want and then distribute it worldwide with the right partner like an A24 if your product is good enough.
00:55:44.180And the director of Obsession was a very talented YouTube and sketch creator
00:55:50.300who had been doing this, you know, his entire adult life.
01:01:32.300And are you still thinking about it beyond just watching it?
01:01:36.660It's amazing what the – going back to the beginning of it, the technology and the platforms that have allowed creators like yourselves and like these guys to all of a sudden take over the globe or the United States, right?
01:01:51.800never would have happened back in the day going through the guards yeah right that allowed you to
01:02:00.240come into hollywood and stuff like the technology and the platform and democratization the word
01:02:05.200democratization correct it's just like everyone's open to create if you got something good no matter
01:02:09.980who you are you can be great and you call them a creator because they start on the platform but
01:02:14.820they're really just an artist no i've been saying this for years because of social media platforms
01:02:20.200at least now especially because every young person wants to be a youtuber because it is it is a great
01:02:27.100job but the people who break through now on these platforms where you get to create are going to be
01:02:34.800very very good you're going to have to be like like when speed popped off i was like he's the
01:02:41.000beginning of a wave of creators and who come in many shapes and sizes some are in front of the
01:02:46.500camera some are in front of the camera but also directing some are just storytelling the the ones
01:02:51.400who really make it and then break out and even transcend the social media world are going to be
01:02:58.400so good at their craft when it comes to making content truly this is the most special time to
01:03:06.620be alive because it has become so easy and you can reach the rest of the world with the tap of
01:03:14.060a button and if your product that your output your creation is good enough the world will
01:03:20.960recognize it and that is so exciting for anyone with an ounce of creativity i don't know the name
01:03:25.460but maybe dylan will throw it out can line or sorry can film festival which is one of the most
01:03:31.080prestigious for the first time had a full ai movie well that's a whole different i'm just saying like
01:03:38.560it's the creation of just creativity that well that that's even kind of what i'm saying so so
01:03:44.900now if you're just a person with an idea you don't even have to pick up the camera like like
01:03:51.540creativity is in this era being rewarded because you can make anything and i with a couple prompts
01:04:00.020and some taps and i think with the ai i've been watching a lot of people talk about it
01:04:03.980a lot of the best creators in the film world and everything say while it's going to help
01:04:11.620progress and make things faster and easier still the human creativity is what is going to win the
01:04:18.740day well it's all based on the human prompt and what you get is you just you just end up with
01:04:22.880creative prompters i mean i am awful with names today but the guy the guy that i've been showing0.75
01:04:29.340you from instagram over and over that does those insane fucking uh gossip goblin is that what it0.89
01:04:35.520was remember i showed you no you're on your own bucko no he knows you know the differentiator is0.98
01:04:43.340going to be do we talked about it on the show down to one word this dude that does the really0.60
01:04:48.560fucking intricate and like yeah yeah i see yeah it's taste at least at the moment ai is not going
01:04:56.420to be able to have extreme levels of taste it lacks it it lacks it at the moment well it lacks0.95
01:05:06.240a lot of stuff i mean time comedic timing yeah yeah but but i guess in like other verticals not0.99
01:05:12.320necessarily creative related it's fucking kicking ass like it's it's doing a better job than human0.90
01:05:18.040yo real quick 60 of people watching this are not subscribed i can't believe what if you've made it0.98
01:05:23.140this far you clearly mess with impulsive subscribing literally helps us bring on insane guests and
01:05:28.260keeps the show getting better so please hit the subscribe button let's get back to it this is what
01:05:32.820a person in the backroom looks like so i'm not even kidding if jake paul was in the backrooms
01:05:38.260this is this is quite literally exactly backrooms jake paul so they use these type of so no so i'll
01:05:44.980explain it to you so basically the backrooms is really just you'll you're gonna love this dude
01:05:53.500this is known to it's not a spoiler the backrooms remembers okay it's basically like memories in
01:06:00.280your mind what your memory does when it tries to remember something is it creates like a pretty
01:06:06.400basic memory of it okay it's not it's not quite what it really was yeah okay like when you think
01:06:12.780back when you think back to like eating dinner at the dinner table when you were a kid it's a
01:06:17.020very big so it distorts the memory a little bit so the back room remembers but it remembers and
01:06:23.880as it continues to remember it continues to distort and so those distortions become pretty0.64
01:06:30.120fucked up that's really cool it's very cool so this literally is what jake paul looks like in0.61
01:06:35.220the back rooms yeah i mean i'm gonna be honest jake's been on a bit of a bender this might be0.84
01:06:41.680just what jake paul looks like in real life right now is that a helmet this might this might just
01:06:46.340jake paul's ears falling off because mike tyson bit it like if you saw jake and georgia right now
01:06:52.460dude this might be him dude i don't uh look i have a bunch of haters but i've been a hater
01:06:57.240i've been a hater and for some reason when i watch movies sometimes my my hater is activated
01:07:03.620and i'd be like yo this is i don't know because sometimes i think it's when a movie doesn't meet
01:07:08.080my expectations but i like critiquing movies and i've done it multiple times and it tends to get
01:07:13.380a good reaction but i've i've started to think maybe with all this downtime if i see a movie i
01:07:18.460like if i have a positive feedback uh on it maybe i could post that on twitter because like that i
01:07:24.720watched this movie the other day new logan yeah bro like let's let's keep it positive but my
01:07:29.840hating my hating is just so fun i see what people do but uh yeah i watched this movie the other day
01:07:34.900very good project hail mary yeah mike said he fell asleep no no no no he told me that no not
01:07:41.820because of uh the movie i was tired like sometimes bro you're not you know when you start a movie and
01:07:47.920i want to hear about this but you know when you start a movie and you're like don't know why i'm
01:07:51.280doing this because i'm not making it yeah that's what happened no you have to you have to it's two
01:07:56.040and a half hour movie you have to clock prepare you gotta lock in and and look i love sci-fi
01:08:01.580but i think nowadays it's so unique to watch something where it feels fresh yeah and like
01:08:10.720wow this is like there's like original jokes in here and it's created it's nuanced it's it's it's
01:08:17.180not predictable by any means and the story's interesting i mean like project hail mary is
01:08:22.080about essentially a spoiler alert it's like a it's like a it's it's a love story i'd say between
