We had Mayor Adams on. We brought up the subway system and the perception that it's incredibly dangerous right now. Yeah. And he was like, it's the safest it's been in X amount of years. He gave examples for, you know, crimes being down. Now there's other ways to like fudge these crime numbers. If you're not, what is the word where you actually punish people for the crime?
If you're not, if you're not prosecuting crimes, I guess you could say that these crimes didn't happen. So then all of a sudden it looks like crimes are down. So I think there are ways of fudging numbers.
But, uh, but still he came and he gave me this data or he gave us this data. And then we were kind of shocked. We were like, Oh, I thought the subway was dangerous again.
And they're going to see you at the supermarket.
Yeah, we're in the echo chambers. And the algorithms are just making those echo chambers more extreme.
The algorithm is going to reward the more salacious version of that information.
There's what we think is important. This is why TikTok works better than Instagram. How do you mean? Because TikTok is what we actually want. And Instagram is what we want to want. We follow all these people. We think we want information about what's going on in the world. But TikTok is like, motherfucker, I know what you want. Just shut up, sit down and scroll.
And that's why we watch more TikTok. And Instagram is trying to compete. But the reality is we don't want to look at all the people we follow.
Yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Yeah. It's less cognitive effort. It's more cognitive effort to think about what you want to consume that day and put some work into it. Way less to just scroll.
Yeah, I don't know why that is.
Yeah, when was Game 2? It was last night, right? Jesus Christ, dude. I don't know. I wasn't about it. It's like something about Detroit. Like, I don't even need to see Detroit. Well, it's 1-1, so you might need to see Detroit.
So what do we got game three now that our eyes are going to be on it? Now that our eyes are going to be on it. Yeah, no, we definitely wouldn't.
All right, listen, put your money where Akash has put his money historically. That's always worked out. Whatever team Akash is rooted for.

You think guns is one of them?
But if we're talking about, like, background checks— I think there's support for regulation. There's support for background checks. But I don't know if I would, like, hinge the election on guns.
Yeah, I'm supportive.
So what do you got to change? Like, how do you just, sorry, Al, but how do you change that perception if you know that more people agree with the policies that you guys have? Why aren't they agreeing with you? And what are you doing wrong?
The only one that does it is AOC and Bernie. And it's very specific and very targeted, and it works. And it feels like everybody else is worried about offending somebody or being yelled at by one of your constituents or one of those groups that you're supposed to be protecting.
