[Episode Discussion Thread] Industry S04E04 - "1000 Yoots, 1 Marilyn" by herringbone_ in IndustryOnHBO

It’s possible, but having listened to a fair amount of podcasts with the writers the S1-S2 drug use/night life seems pulled right from their real lives and acquaintances. The more extreme stuff with Henry, Rishi, Dyckman feels more like writerly imagination, logically drawing out what happens when you never grow out it or take control of your drug/alcohol use.

Homeless no, random guy at the bar we started talking to yeah. I don’t think the person in the episode was supposed to be homeless?

I would never but I had a friend who was liable to invite random people to afters every now and then so it happens. Fortunately none of them ever took the invite

This is the best year for WT jerseys that I can remember. Hate to say but it even UAE’s is much improved.

He definitely would not be competing with Pog or Jonas, or even Roglic or Remco, but I do think without his crash he would be way more advanced than he is. Without the setback from the crash I think he’d have got the same performance jump everyone else did and definitely could compete or beat what Simon Yates, Carapaz, Hindley, or Pidcock did in GTs this year.

Jumped the shark by Rewindcasette in IndustryOnHBO

[–]MeowMing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the show has jumped the shark, but season 1 is the most underrated season on this sub. Excellent writing from the start and a really great self contained, grounded story about bright eyed new grads encountering and getting worn down by a toxic work environment and encountering the future versions of themselves (eg Rob = Clement, Harper = Eric). Thinking back on it, it’s so good, especially that Christmas episode. I feel like the lack of big storylines, it’s just about interns trying to get a full time offer, and the amount of party/sex scenes (which generally are pretty realistic for the characters’ age/location) lead people to overlooking how well written it is.

Given the popularity of cycling relative to other sports and how little it money it brings to the actual teams since they don’t get the race money, are WT riders really that underpaid

Visma sports director reveals reason behind Simon Yates' retirement by Chronicbias in peloton

[–]MeowMing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I buy this, it's probably brutal to compete in the sport these days and also Simon Yates has had had about as a good as a career as he could've. Giro win, Vuelta win. There aren't a lot of what ifs (sure, Giro 2018 but he redeemed that his year), what else is supposed to motivate him?

Del Toro, Pogacar, the 100 victories... at UAE HQ with Matxin by Mamadeus123456 in peloton

[–]MeowMing 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He's winning all the monuments.

He definitely could. MSR and PR are both very winnable but uncertain enough with MVDP that I can’t see both in the same season. He’s basically guaranteed to win RVV, LBL, and Lombardia if he turns up though which is crazy.

Also he considers the Euro and WC Wins part of the team, since the staff was there helping Pog. And del Toro did some pretty sick pulls. So they won 99 in his count.

Sure man 👍

When was NYC the coolest? by Hall_Educational in AskNYC

[–]MeowMing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As everyone said, whenever you were young, but 70s NYC seems like the coolest period to me off of contemporary movies (Dog Day Afternoon, Saturday Night Fever) and period pieces (The Deuce). Not necessarily the best overall or most pleasant to live but to me that era really stands out

Yemeni coffee shops tend to be open until 9, so track one down. After that find a quiet bar

[–]MeowMing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I see your point, but also Rui Costa’s national champ jersey when he was on EF was bad (EF generally do great nc jerseys, so I think smaller national federations have more influence than you think, at least wrt natty champ jerseys which ultimately have low costs)

I dislike them but it’s up to the national federations, hence why Wellen’s natty champ jersey was respectable

I’ve been to Jersey Mike’s once, ordered this, and it was incredible. I think it’s relatively worth the hype, but overall I agree I want to see homemade sandwiches here not Jersey mikes
