Chapter 1: What does Chad Kultgen think about the authenticity of reality TV?

0.031 - 14.887 Sean Kelly

In business, I'm always trying to get the best outcome for the best price. So it's kind of crazy. I haven't looked at my life insurance in years. I don't even know if what I'm paying is competitive or if I have enough coverage with how things have changed. That's why I started looking into SelectQuote.

14.987 - 30.004 Sean Kelly

For over 40 years, they've helped more than 2 million Americans secure over $700 billion in coverage. Their whole model is simple. They shop around to find you the right policy for your specific needs so you're not overpaying or undercovered. Their licensed agents work for you in as little as 15 minutes.

59.004 - 70.737 Chad Kultgen

I'm 100% of the mind that we live in a dictatorship now because there's going to come a day when Trump is not in this shit. And then what? We've just got the split country that won't talk to each other because you did vote for Trump or whatever the case may be.

0

Chapter 6: What insights does Chad share about Trump's impact and policies?

70.857 - 88.182 Chad Kultgen

It's crucially important to keep talking to one another so that the powers that be, Trump and the kind of right-wing media engine can't use that against you. It's like your parents are actually not your enemies. It's the... billionaire who's trying to take all your money and kill people in the streets. I just think he's deplorable. I think he's a narcissist. He's obviously greedy.

0

88.282 - 95.817 Chad Kultgen

He's 100% corrupt, the most corrupt president we've ever had. And he's trying to take control of this country in a way that is not democratic at all.

100.859 - 102.942 Sean Kelly

Okay guys, somehow got chat out to Vegas.

0

103.002 - 109.53 Chad Kultgen

It's been 10 years. Yeah, I think that's roughly the last time I was here, 10 years ago. Welcome back. Thank you very much.

109.63 - 110.931 Sean Kelly

How much money have you lost so far?

111.873 - 123.627 Chad Kultgen

Not much. My gambling bug has moved on from Vegas games to Magic the Gathering pack rips at this point. That could be even worse though, right? Yeah, I've lost way more on Magic the Gathering cards than I ever did in Vegas.

123.607 - 126.171 Sean Kelly

So ripping them or just buying them and they're going down in value?

Chapter 7: How does Chad view the role of AI in creativity and conversation?

126.231 - 132.44 Chad Kultgen

No, I just buy. No, I mean, they're actually going up in value, the ones that I keep sealed or whatever. But I have a nice little collection.

132.52 - 132.861 Sean Kelly

Got it.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of AI lawsuits discussed in the episode?

132.941 - 136.506 Sean Kelly

Yeah, because to maintain a good deck, you need to constantly be buying cards, right?

0

136.526 - 145.159 Chad Kultgen

Is that how it works? And new sets come out. I mean, this 2026, there's going to be seven sets that come out. Yeah. So you're always kind of like implementing new cards into whatever deck you have.

145.139 - 151.086 Sean Kelly

I was just watching, we were talking about what we watch on YouTube in the hallway. I was watching like Yu-Gi-Oh battles, like the championships.

0

151.246 - 167.686 Chad Kultgen

Yeah, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, Magic the Gathering, and now One Piece. One Piece has cards. Those are the big ones. Yeah, One Piece's sets came out maybe like two years ago they started, I think. Dude. And they have kind of taken the whole trading card world by storm. That's the one anime I refuse to watch because there's like 3,000 episodes. Dude, I've tried.

167.926 - 173.172 Chad Kultgen

I got almost through season one of it, and I was like on episode 70 or something. You know what I'm like?

173.152 - 189.912 Chad Kultgen

I can't there's like a thousand more episodes so I gave up I just watched the fight highlights on YouTube yeah that's how I stay up to it supposedly Netflix is about to do a new kind of remaster where they get rid of all the and it's just the main story with new animation no fillers yeah because fillers are like half the series that's the one downside with anime yeah

189.892 - 195.424 Sean Kelly

They can't keep up with the manga or manga, however you pronounce it. Yeah, exactly. Are you pretty big on anime? You watch it a lot?

195.444 - 207.63 Chad Kultgen

Yeah, I watch it a lot at this point, yeah. What are the favorite ones? I mean, shit, Chainsaw Man's hard to beat at this point. Really love solo leveling. Okay. Attack on Titan, obviously, is like a classic at this point.

207.61 - 232.673 Chad Kultgen

nice i love how you balance all the nerdy like magic and anime with the bachelor stuff that's pretty impressive i mean that's nerdy to me as well you know i go very hard into reality television because i think it's the most important media that we are making as a culture it has given us our current president and the it really is pro wrestling in my opinion there is a lie that is being conveyed in all reality tv shows that it is real yeah whether it's bachelor where it's like these people are falling in love
