I don't know about the "pure and uncorrupted heart" but he should know that the "joke" is usually something that one would not be surprised to hear from a youth-fixated, viagra-enhanced older man with sexual delusions...in my opinion.
"I own a 2010 Honda Civic that basically nobody would steal." Pure CFO energy. Big fan. Also appreciate the ending sentiment... "The bottom line is - stay the course and also recognize, for your own mental health, whatever happens here, America will endure." Well said.
Ed is like a "mini me" version of Scott. I can see a day where Scott gets bored with this, and Ed will take over the podcast without missing a beat. They're like Batman and Robin.
Nike; I turned off the brand years ago when they started making lots of shoes that didn't last; I got burned enough times that I started buying other brands. Boeing turned their front towards money and their back on their workers and community when they moved out of Seattle. The current state of the company is the unsurprising result. Credit to the hosts for getting good guests, asking good questions and then letting the guests speak. The lighter side is nice and taking the serious stuff seriously is also nice. Please continue.
Its a good thing ED balances out the show with logic and reason. Its hard to interpret the actual fundamentals of the companies in question cause scott tends to analyze based off of his emotional opinions vs logic and reason. If there's a negative spin on the company from scott its because the founder supports republican party. If its a positive spin from scott its because they support democrats. Its almost uncomfortable seeing ED have to tip toe his logic into the convo. I feel bad for ED :(. It must be confusing as hell for ed to see Scott's his mentors success in business followed by his seemingly broad lack of critical thinking abilities. It probably makes ed feel like he must be the crazy one given the false positives and seemingly paradoxical success of Scott.
Ask yourself Scott why has moviemaking turned away from Los Angeles in the first place? They did it to themselves and they don’t deserve a subsidy from everybody else. But I appreciate your thoughts as always.
Long time listener and fan of Prof G. The Nike discussion needs more insight. I cover the sneaker industry on my channel. I don't want to leave a link here, but there is a lot of content for everyone to check out for a more detailed analysis. Thanks for the hard work and informative and entertaining podcast/videos and hit me with any questions you might have on this topic.
I've wondered if the robots being controlled by people was more of a saftey issue. To me I was just impressed with the hands that has to be incredibly difficult to design and manufacture.
Did not agree with Ed's take on California supporting the film industry with tax incentives. Californians are losing a lot work to Georgia, Nevada, Canada, etc - places that subsidize these industries aggressively. I'd rather Gavin keep the work and workers in California.
California was already subsidizing the industry, they just increased it. But I don't think it will make much difference. There are other costs that make California increasingly less competitive.
@@tigreytigrey8537 Scott pointed out that it pencils out to be basically budget neutral. It's basically an investment in keeping jobs and people in California, rather than those people moving or having to get new careers
He's one of those brainwashed smart people. It's a wonder to see. It's very paradoxical. Thats why they say subconscious conditioning is more powerful than all the IQ points in the world.
The US economy during the Biden-Harris years has been VERY good for me. Unfortunately the poverty rate is still too high. Trump put less money in my pocket and did so at the expense of those with far fewer resources while expanding the deficit massively.
