Support for the show comes from Fundrise. For the past seven years, there's been a room in finance most people couldn't enter, a room where you could have invested in some of the biggest names in tech companies like Airbnb and Uber before their multi-billion dollar IPOs. I'm talking about venture capital. Fundrise recently took a sledgehammer to those closed doors by launching a venture capital product that's available to anyone. Their mission is to give everyone the chance to invest in the best tech and AI companies before they go public. You can visit fundrise.com slash profg to check out Fundrise's venture portfolio and get in early today. All investments involve risk, including a potential loss of principal.

Hi, this is Bella Freud. I'm the host of Fashion Neurosis. This week on the show, Esther Perel is on my couch. Erotic recovery is part of trauma healing. God, that's interesting. It's not the reward at the end. Yeah. That's the difference. And I think we both come together around that construct. Yeah. Find Fashion Neurosis on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
Today's number 762,000. New York City experienced a significant reduction in water usage during Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show. In the 15 minutes after the show, the borough saw a surge in water usage equivalent to roughly 762,000 toilets flushing. I wouldn't know about this as I turned into the Kid Rock concert as I like music for people who know the exact amount of Sudafed they're legally allowed to buy. Okay, you don't like that one? I like music for dudes who have weekend custody but still don't bother to see their kids. Ooh, warmer, warmer. Kid Rock makes music for people that use a breathalyzer to start their car. We have a bingo, Claire.
Listen to me. Markets are bigger than us. What you have here is a structural change in the world distribution.
Cash is trash. Stocks look pretty attractive. Something's going to break. Forget about it.
Ed, how are you? I'm doing very well. What'd you think of the Halftime Show?
I don't know if you knew this, but I live in London, so... I did know that. It came on after... Not when I was asleep, but I was deep into my edible and writing and with the dogs, and I just didn't want to... Like, if it's not Tom Petty or George Michael, which would be really impressive if they could get either of those people to show up for the Halftime Show, or I would take Prince. I'm not interested. I don't know Bad Bunny's music. I'm not into it. But the show I saw... I'm kind of like, what's not to like? I thought it was nice, well-produced. He's obviously, I mean, I look at this through an economic lens. The NFL is a league. It's an entity trying to take the asset value of duopolies in every city up.
But they're very smart. And they realize that the majority of people under the age of 18, the future of football, are non-white. And they invited the most popular artist in the world. So, check, check, check. He's exactly the right choice. You're young. What did you think? Doesn't matter what I think.
I thought the set design was awesome. I thought the production was awesome. I just, I'm not a fan of his music. So, I didn't like the music or the performance itself that much. God, that's so racist, Ed. I can't believe.
Why do you hate the Latin culture, Ed? Why do you hate Latinas? Oh, God.
I wish I really liked his music. Maybe I need to get into it. But I wasn't that into the performance. But I thought it was visually unbelievable. One thing I was wondering, I feel like the halftime show is a way bigger deal now than the game itself. I personally, I wasn't that interested in what the result of the game was. I rarely am. That's because I'm not really an NFL fan. But I was very excited and very interested in the halftime show. And it seems like everyone else was. I mean, I look at my social media, no one's talking about the game. Everyone's talking about Bad Bunny. You turn on the news, Fox News, MSNOW, any show is talking about Bad Bunny.
