What is the history behind tequila?
Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here?
Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.
Cuervo.
Cuervo.
This is the Dan Levitar Show with the Stugatz Podcast.
What did the hosts think about the recent Michael Jackson musical?
Zaslow and I, lest you say that we are uncultured heathens, recently went to a musical. Not together. I don't know why I was so quickly defensive about that. God forbid. I'd love to go to a musical with you guys. You have to understand the reason I said that is because you dress like this. Oh. What's wrong with this? For a musical? Was it a heat musical? It was a Michael Jackson musical. Oh, boy. What did they talk about? Well, to me, you say that, and that's one of the things that I found amazing about the entirety of the experience. Because it was simply amazing. But the idea that music and talent, that one of a kind, never to be duplicated, would make it so that an auditorium would fill with people because the music was so good.
sort of ignoring that probably yeah pedophilia was likely something that was that he was doing in a way that has been documented in documentary form even though a lot of people don't believe it what do you mean ignoring it several all throughout the the show they were saying can you believe what they're saying about me in the media they didn't ignore it so they like mocked it
No, but look.
Also, that could mean anything. People are making fun of his appearance. There's a lot of things people are talking about in the media about him.
What are the allegations against Michael Jackson?
Kind of sounds like a pro-pedophilia musical you went to.
Okay, that is a way to frame it.
Billy, why do you want to be starting something? Beat it, Jeremy.
The music is so enduring, so enduring that somehow, posthumously, he cannot be canceled by allegations that would obviously get anyone else canceled. I don't know. Some of you should look into a Prince documentary that Netflix will not allow to air and that the Prince estate will not allow to air that would be the greatest of documentaries that I'm guessing posthumously would do things to Prince's reputation that would make it harder to separate the art from the artist than Elle Duncan just did with Mulky and I and Zaslow did at a musical together, but not together.
So how do we do this? I know Pablo's one of the only people on the planet that's seen this masterpiece of a documentary with the guy that made O.J. Made in America. Ezra Edelman.
Don't say what's his name.
No, I didn't remember what his name was. No, I understand. He won an Oscar.
Respect, respect. Okay, win another one? It's been a while. Well, he would have with this. Look, man. Oh, my God. Listen to this story, okay? Because this one crushes me. Just crushes me for Ezra Edelman. A perfectionist of the highest order who makes only the best things. Guy makes the O.J. documentary and it can't even be done again. Netflix tried recently, it's embarrassing. No reason to watch it.
What challenges do documentaries face in today's media landscape?
I saw it and I was like, meh.
No, it's been done so well, it cannot and will not ever be done again better in a way that masterpieces are. He had so many options right after that. So many options. Anything you want to do. Clint Eastwood will take your seconds. You can do anything. But there's the pressure. I've got to make something better than that. And it did. Like he made something and we'll never see it. And we'll never see it. No one will ever see it because the Prince's estate will be able to protect it. And imagine pouring yourself, because he works dark, man. He works alone and he is a genius. He is brilliant. He makes the perfect documentary and his next one was going to be better. He was going to meet impossible expectations and exceed his own, which are impossible because the Prince documentary was going to be better than the OJ documentary and no one's ever going to see it. Can you imagine how that would feel to dedicate your life
years to one thing it's perfect for him because no one can come out and say wow this was a flop like this didn't live up to expectations it's just like wow this is even better than the last one but I can't show you just take my word for it and I'll show my friend Pablo and he won't say a bad thing about me so here's the thing if you want to make movies someone watches he should have made a Marvel movie made a ton of money everyone would have watched his movie had all these options make a comic book movie Ezra that's the move
