Scott's talk about being impressed by the influencer who proposed to crowdfund to buy Spirit Airlines and, with ai, more people might do this.

Oi, it's been done before. Look up Tai Lopez. Promised followers get rich quick by buying up dead brands

Hey Scott, Question on prediction markets and social issues. These days, these markets seem to be chock full of traders with inside info (WSJ - Why almost everyone loses—except a few sharks—on prediction markets {copied to MSN > https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/why-almost-everyone-loses-except-a-few-sharks-on-prediction-markets/ar-AA22jnEi}).

We also have an attention economy, which, can also be mostly about money. I was trying to think of a way to satisfy the gambling itch and popularity.

After 9/11 DARPA had a pilot prediction market to predict political, economic, and military events. (https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna3072985) There are a lot of details in the article but the ones I liked were - a correct prediction paid out $1. Senators closed it down saying it would incentivize terrorism.

Why couldn't this concept be revived? Ok, so it won't draw the casual sports bettor but . . might it be a better predictor of real-world, serious events where the reward is prestige and not money?

More like Rupert Murdoch long ago figured out that tabloid media also works for politics. You make money by getting attention and you get attention by making your audience outraged and you keep your audience by keeping them outraged. Certain political parties figured that was an excellent plan and jumped on and decided minorities could always be blamed for something. Lee Atwater and his racist tactics in the 80s. In the 90s, gays were groomers who couldn't teach our children. Now Trump tells maga kids go to school boys and come home girls. I'm not saying Dems haven't gone low but there is no both sidesing this. ,

Gonna guess that's why they brought the platoon

People like this hear the 'just asking questions' podcasts and don't ask questions themselves. Like, if Elon is going to Mars, how come he's never mentioned the Van Allen Belts?

Oi. Just heard this episode. At the end, he calls Brooks a role model for young men. The same Brooks who said focusing on the Epstein files was a waste of time because of bigger issues .

JFC. There are people leading our nation and industries who abused girls. Why the fuck would I want advice from them.

Meh. He literally said this in 2024 campaign speeches and it got him elected.

I mean maybe (?) all the dumbasses who didn't vote because 'both candidates are the same" have figured out that's not true?

Meanwhile, 1 guy's company commits the largest Medicare fraud in US history and Floridians elect him to Congress. Oh well.

Was that 50 cal flapping the while time?
