Ready? One, two, three. Welcome to America's Top DEI Podcast. We are a community on Asshole Island of patriots, the good kind, not the Nazi kind. Not the Nazi kind. Gay triots, and they triots, black triots, anybody who just believes in democracy and human rights and likes to be petty. This is the place for you. Pumps, what have you had it with?
Okay, what I've had it with, and I know we've talked about it before, but I'm really fired up about it right now. What I've had it with is you pay for streaming services. So you're paying for it. They're not putting ads in it. And they don't release all the shows at once. And they slow drip the episodes once. One week at a time. So everybody right now is talking about the White Lotus.
I'm not talking about it because I haven't seen it because I have to wait until I can binge watch it. And I feel like Netflix spoiled us. And then we're paying for these services. We should get all the shows at once. I've had it.
I agree. I mean, like we're way past being patient. And the slow drip approach is so 1980s. Yeah. Like, I mean, it's like, do we get our VCR out and record it? I mean, come on. This is Trump's America. Yes. And we desperately need an entire episode because we need a respite from all of the fuckery that comes with living in a country with that man being elected.
And we need to be able to just turn our phones off. and binge watch a show for eight or nine hours straight. Yes. As therapy. And the streaming services are denying us of doing that.
Yeah, I blame it on Trump, of course. But here's the thing. I don't understand. Explain it to me. Why, if I'm paying for the show, and I'm sorry, if I'm paying for the streaming service, why they just can't give me all the shows at once? Why do they have to do it like network television TV, which is sponsored by ads? Seems like a double dip to me.
Well, I think the purpose of it is, I mean, it's obviously like it builds probably more viewership because people talk about it. Oh, did you see what happened? Oh, you can catch up. From a marketing standpoint, I get it. Oh, okay.
That makes sense.
From a selfish standpoint, I don't like it. And I will say this. I do think it's probably better for us as a species to have them slow drip because we're not meant to sit and stare at a screen for eight or nine hours. It's really a part of the genesis of this entire problem that led us to this very moment. But the selfish person in me that wants a respite from all of this
