It's a couplesecondsoffseconds.
That's I mean, we'realready 20 minutesintoit.
So I saywejustgettothenextitem.
Andbytheway, thisstreamisveryexclusively.
Thisisn't gonnaliveonthesauceoneforever.
So, yeah, I thinkit's e justdealwiththeaudiobeingoutofsyncandknowthatyoustillsawsomethingvery, veryspecialbecause I have a fear, whichisthat I'm scaredthatif I cancelthestreamandstartedagain, thatwilljustgoawayforever.
Exactly.

Okay, Hopefullythatfixedsomeoftheaudioproblems, and, uh, itisgettingreallyhotinHereiswaytoturnofftheairconditioner s O thattheaudiowouldbebetterandoh, myGod.
Youshouldhavegottensweatrag.
Allright, now, thisis a question.
I'm curioustohearwhatyouguysthink, becausewaytalkaboutscienceandYouTube a lotwetalkaboutmeanssometimesthiscamefromthesubredditnameeconomy, andtheyasked, withnormalvacation, aneconomicbubblehappeningsooftenwithmeans.
Forthoseofyouwhoaren't followersofmeaneconomy, letmeexplainthatit's basically a nastydecktradingareaformeansandjokes, andtheyratehowfresh a meanis.

Italreadytoldmewhereyougonnalooklikeyourlaneandtheytrackthepopularityofmeansand I saidNASDAQ, buttheycallitinasdank.
Obviously, thequestionis, what's a goodwaytofindstablemeansthatairgoodtoinvestinthatwillalwaysbefunnyoratleastbefunnyfor a longtimeandwon't thebubblewon't burst?
Um, also, there's still a waythere's stillanaudiodelay, whichmeans I thinkthere's justgonnabe a delay.
I don't know.
Wecanreallydoaboutit.
Okay, Sorry.
SowhatwasKevin?

Thequestionmeansyeah, exactly.
Sothequestionis a meanwillpopupandit'llbefunnyfor a while.
Butthen, inevitably, youknow, mymomsharesitonFacebook, andthen a bigcompanydoes.
Andallof a suddenit's notcoolandsubversiveanymore.

Andsohowdoyouwhatmakes a meanmorelikelytobefreshfor a longtimeandnotburst?
I thinkitjusthastobekindofwithheldwithin, like a certainsupper, notturnintotrending.
Yeah.
No, I, uh, 100% agree.
I thinkthatelementsthatmakesomethinglesslikelytobecomemainstream, likebeingwaytoonicheor, youknow, in a lotofcases, it's justif a meanisoffensive, it's nevergoingtobesharedbycosit's nevergonnabecomemainstream.
