0:00 [Music] Welcome back to another episode of the Careful Boys World. Hey, let's talk about the UFC Paramount deal. >> Yeah. >> Do that video. >> So UFC just landed a $7.7 billion deal for with Paramount where they're no longer going to have pay-per-view all next season. Everything will just be on Paramount. So if you subscribe to Paramount, >> I subscribe to Paramount. That's kind of sick. No, >> that's amazing. >> Cuz I spend like $70 plus >> like once a month >> cuz I watch I watch almost all cuz I watch almost all of them. >> And do you have Paramount? >> No, but I'd rather pay I'd rather pay what was it? $17 you said? >> No, I said $7.7 billion deal. But let me see how much Paramount >> Paramount's not that expensive. >> Yeah, it's like maybe 10 bucks, 20
0:50 bucks. I'd rather pay that >> extension on my Amazon Prime. And there's all kinds of other ████ you get. >> Yeah. So if you want Paramount Plus essential, this is ad by the way. No, it's not. $8 a month. Paramount Plus Premium is $13 a month. >> Yeah, 13 bucks versus spending like almost $100. >> Yeah, you're talking about like 150 bucks total a year for every fight. >> Yeah, that's sick. >> You guys been doing some big moves, man. >> I would love to do that, >> dude. 7.7 billion is crazy. That's a huge move. I think the controversy though is um how how that will affect the fighters cuz you know when they do the fight contracts the fighters usually get points on the pay-per-view so that's a big negotiation thing >> you think they're going to get less money because >> so they'll be like okay cool like I'll fight for 100 grand um but be but because I think I could bring a lot of people to the the stadium then like give me a couple points on this whatever. So
1:42 now if it's just a flat fee >> like how much of that 7 billion will reach the fighters wouldn't they still be able to like measure the metrics of like of the data like analytically be like well this had this many more views on it >> but so I should get this much like blah blah blah extra negative or positive thing. I think that's just one of the things a lot of people are worried about. >> Historically when stuff moves from pay to streaming the people that are in it lose. Yeah, because you don't get the back >> historically. That's why they don't like it. >> So like the artists that are just on >> Spotify, like even the guy that did Squid Game, like you don't win as hard when it just goes to streaming. >> Yeah. >> But you know who does kind of win? >> The consumer. >> Yes. consumer, but also like not the
2:32 stars of UFC, like the other fighters that are trying to like opportunity >> because like now if maybe you were only willing to pay 70 bucks for like this fight's going to be dope and anybody who's on that card, it's like that's a that's a bonus. You're on that gangster ass fight card. Well, now if you already paid for it and you kind of like UFC, you might be interested to just watch the fight cuz you already have it and you'll learn about this like kind of up and coming fighter and stuff. I didn't know you were such a socialist. >> So optimistic. >> I see. That makes sense, right? Yeah. It's kind of like when you start f like when we're watching the Pacers with Steve. I don't know ████ about the Pacers, but because all you guys are watching, you start learning the names. >> Yeah. >> Because you're watching all the buildup games, so you're probably more prone to watching all the buildup fights, too. >> Yeah, cuz you already paid for it. >> It's available to you. Yeah, >> I can see that. >> Yeah, that's pretty cool. I think that's
3:22 that's a nice entry point for people that are like mildly interested as well, but they don't want to buy the pay-per-view cuz it's kind of a commitment. >> But I was talking I'm talking to Yeah, I know Joe. No, I was listening to Joe Rogan talk about it too because I was like, >> you think you're talking to Would you listen to Joe Rogan? >> Yeah, me me and Mr. Rogue. Um, but he had a really good point cuz I was curious as like how he sees it. >> And he was just talking about hoping that the ESPN plus deals still stay in place where they do like the background like story stuff buildups about the fighters because >> that's where if you're just getting the fights and they're not producing other content or shows on Paramount regarding it, then you're not going to like where where are the viewers going to like kind of dive deeper and see the dram. They have that stuff on YouTube too. >> There's a bunch of them. There's like >> that's an enthusiast who's going to go there and specifically type in >> there's a lateral move to just click
4:12 over to the next thing. Yeah, that makes sense. >> Yeah, I hope so too cuz all that stuff is what really builds the fights, the story lines like, oh this guy has a ████ daughter and whatever. This guy hates that guy is a vegetarian. Is he going to make it? >> Yeah, story is such a big part. >> I I always root for >> he's a vegetarian. He's going to make it. >> I don't know. They always have >> I'm going to get Paramount Plus for this. >> ████ yeah. Save so much money. I actually really like Paramount Plus. like you know those um >> good on it. >> I think I originally got it for Better Call Saul a long time ago. Oh, wait. No, that was that might have been AMC. I can't remember what I got it for originally, but I got it for one specific show and I was every time I'm like time to cancel it and then I would go, "What's this?" And I would just keep it. Yeah, it's one of those >> I can't remember any of them. >> Yeah. >> How many things do you uh streaming services do you subscribe to? >> Um Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu,
5:02 Paramount. Uh I think I had AMC and I have HBO. Wow. >> You have AMC separate? >> I did. I don't think I do anymore. I think I I forgot what show I got it for. It might have been like one of the 1917s or like >> Do you miss Do you miss TV? >> No, I don't miss it all. >> ████ I miss TV. >> Really? >> I miss when the shows choose you. >> You turn it on and they're like, I guess I'm watching I love that at hotels. >> Yes, agreed. It's like you're just chilling in between whatever you got to do and you're at a hotel, you turn on, suddenly it's like payback's on or like >> you're watching a fishing show. >> You're just like what? >> I think it's still the same like relatively. It's it's just like kind of cold picking something on the list. >> So many things. It's not like you turn on the TV and it's instant like you're in it. >> Oh. Midway through. >> Yeah. Now you're like, "Okay, I got to
5:52 ████ choose." And I'm like, >> "F███." >> Yeah. It's just the menu. The It's like 10 intimidating. >> You go to a cafeteria and it's like this is what we're serving today. >> Yeah, >> I could see that. But I I still view it that same way where I like I don't keep up with what's new anyway. So when I see the trending list or the now out, it feels like TV to me where I'm like, "Oh, I don't know any of these. Let me just pick one." >> Yeah. I think the faster you can choose or I just go on honestly I go to freaking Rotten Tomatoes on the now streaming and whatever is the highest rated I'll just watch that >> cuz I like like even when I um when I drive from Vegas to LA right and I show up at Jill's mom's house >> Mhm. >> I almost that moment where I pull up into her driveway and I can see what she's watching through the door makes me so happy. I'm like >> I guess we're watching news the next hour just like in the middle of it.
6:43 There is a nostalgia element to that to just being hit with this thing. Yeah. >> But then I just the thing is whenever you're watching even like uh even when you're watching like TV fake TV on streaming, you know, when they have that, >> have you ever seen that Vio TV or something or or Samsung TV >> like it's you it's fun until you have to watch ads. >> Mhm. >> And then the ads kind of take you out of it like cuz the commercials aren't as good as they the nostalgia is not the same. I wish that when like I thought this would be a thing sooner or later, but I really wish that when you watched, let's say you streamed an old TV show and they had to show you ads, they showed you ads from the era of that show. >> Ooh. >> Like if you watched Family Matters on streaming, I wish the commercials were those same brands used their old commercials to communicate to you. Like I'm going to show you, you know, like Big Red commercial or something
7:33 >> cuz that'd be way cooler. >> But then they those those companies would also have to still be in business. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Exactly. But that's the thing. I'm like I felt bad cuz I tried to watch 21 Drum Street and like the ads came on and it's so ████ modern. >> Oh, like the old school 21 Jump Street. >> Yeah. It just it just like takes you out of it. >> Yeah. >> That's like that's like trying to watch like Rush Hour and then that era of those jokes. Imagine the commercials that people think are now like tasteless or something, you know? >> Yeah, that's true. Hey, we're getting back to that though. >> F42, dude. >> With so much freaking controversy. >> I know. But the controversy is the part that's like they wanted that. Rush Hour is sick. >> I think the controversy. >> Yeah, agreed. >> It's one of my top five favorite movies of all time. >> Yeah, I ████ slap you back to Africa, >> dude. It's It's the best. >> That comedy like that should have changed the world for the better and now
8:25 we went backwards. >> We went backwards and and but I like that it's back and I think it needs to be in the Library of Congress because that's literally the best example of being racist and ending up friends. >> It's like, you know what I mean? It's not it's it's like the racial uh static was the key to the connection and I think more people need to learn that instead of avoid it entirely. It's like there's a playfulness you can end up benefiting from. But >> yeah, >> but people lost that art. They lost the mastery of that. You have to be so careful with people. >> I think it's just a guy thing >> that that too. >> What? >> It is a guy thing. >> I think it's a guy thing. >> Just like just talk ████ like racist to each other. >> Yeah. Guys love uh bonding through racism. >> Yeah. like like banter, right? >> Yeah. All the time. >> Just like that's the best way to chill >> and have a combo, you know? >> You get really you get close like that.
9:15 >> Mhm. >> I don't know if girls do that. You guys do that? >> I do. Right. >> You do that with your Chinese friends? >> All All of them. >> What do you >> Yeah, that's how we That's how I say good morning. Actually, >> you have Chong homies. >> Chong homies. >> Whenever you go out with your Chinese friends, you're like, I'll drive. >> Yeah. Yeah. Please. >> Do girls do that? Do girls bond through talking ████ to each other? Not really. >> No, you girls be talking. >> But that's She's a little bit different. >> She's different. >> Yeah. >> But does anyone Does a girl try to bond with you racially? >> No. I That's the thing. I've had more guys bond with me >> with that. >> How do they bond with you racially? >> Oh, they're like, "Damn, white girl." And I'm like, "Damn, black boy." >> That's a funny way. >> And now we're bonded. >> It's true. Yeah, >> now we're fighting crime together.
10:05 >> Yeah, that is true. That is a really good key, man. I mean, if you throw stuff like that out and you're still friends, you are deeper friends than just the next person who's like, "Hi, nice to meet you." >> I feel like if a girl approaches me in that way, I think I'm instantly more like I guess I I would be more inclined to be her friend. >> Cuz you're like, "Oh, she's more like more myself." >> Yeah, that is true. Yeah. I think there's really >> this like fake niceness that girls typically tend to do. >> Yeah. >> Also, it's just like for us it's kind of like the um trustworthy thingy. You know what I mean? Like what type of people are you? Like if you >> like can I say the n word around you or no? >> Oh, not necessarily, but more like >> like have you both got dirt on each other then? >> Yeah. Not necessarily either, but more like more like if you say that style
10:56 style and you communicate like that, it's someone who you can trust in general to be a good human being. You know what I'm saying? Does that >> That's true. You got to build the rapport, the trust before you start getting racist, >> right? Exactly. It's just like you're just like, "Oh, okay." You know, you're like you're just cool. You're chill. You're you're like >> the homies we back in the day, you know what I mean? Not these new people. Not these new people now cuz they're very sensitive. Some of them are very sensitive on how they talk or what they talk about. >> Dude, I recently caught up with like one of my longtime like black homies that cuz he moved to Vegas >> and we were chilling and like I was catching up with his life and this fool's like his ████ catch up. He's like, >> "Yeah, man." You know, and I and I have a daughter, you know. Oh, but she's like lives in, you know, this state and I also have a son. Oh, but he lives in North Hollywood. And, you know, I'm I'm paying Charles board for both of them. And and he's like, "Yeah, and I I I owe
11:48 a lot of money to the government. I didn't pay taxes for these years. And I just listened to all this ████ and I'm like, well, I have also done some Asian stereotypes if you want to hear some of those. >> Oh my god. >> He was like ████ dying, dude. >> That's funny. Like how you know you guys are talking. >> Yeah, because he ████ brags on my ████ too. And >> it makes it feel like okay, you don't take yourself too seriously now. We can be friends. >> Yeah. Plus, it's like it's not like I'm making fun of him. Like we're I'm in this with you, you know? Like we're ████ >> You're making fun of him. But that's the point. No, the but the point is that you make you can't make fun of someone and walk away. Like I make fun of him and I'm in his life. Like I'm in this ████ with you. I'm not going to just like like make you the butt of the joke and then like go off and talk about you like no that's my friend, you know? Like these are funny problems because it matches >> actually tell that your credit score is higher than ever. >> Yeah. I just bought a house, you know,
12:39 and a nice neighbor. No, it's it's it's just uh I actually didn't have anything to say. I just made the joke at his expense. >> That's okay. >> And then walked away. >> Yeah, >> that's a Indian stereotype. >> You ████ ████ >> He's like, I cook with my feet. >> I've heard that one before.
