Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Taylor Shared trent O. My name's Jack. That is Miles Taylor Sheridan, the architect of the YCU Yellowstone Cinematic Universe.
What's he up to?
He's cool? So he's like he's the one guy for whom the current writing situation has worked out incredibly well. Like he write, he writes his shows and like on his on his ranch by himself, and he's got making all the money because his shows have like weird uh, Like the story is like billionaire rancher actually the good guy, and all the greedy tribal communities want to like take away his god given right to his land.
Billionaires ballin indigenous people hating.
I only made it like two episodes then, so if it gets more complicated than that, sure, but he is coming out and being like, while, leave this between the guild and the and the studios. But if I have to check in with another with a room full of four writers, then I'm gonna stop making TV shows because so you want me just basically thrown the guild under the bus and basically be like, God, I do I do things on my own because I'm like a John Wayne of TV writing.
Right, I like it goes quote if they tell me you're gonna have to write a check for five hundred and forty thousand dollars to four people to sit in a room that you never have to meet, then that's between the studio and the guild. But if I have to check in creatively with others for a story I've wholly built in my brain, that would probably be the end of me telling TV stories.
All right, man, well we're good over here. But I do think that would make a bunch of people.
You know, you could still do that and then completely ignore everybody, right, yeah, yeah, that is a thing people do.
They're like, thank you for voicing your support for the powerful fucking billionaires who own these companies.
Always down for the little guy.
Yeah, but he like he has used his immense success as Hollywood's only successful writer uh in the modern era to turn himself into like a rancher who like, so he we know what side his sympathy is layon. He's become like a billionaire rancher with his money writing about billionaire ranchers. The submarine story is still like I was trying to think, is this the most obsessed we've been with a story since when, like I mean accepting.
The tay Cave Kids was similar.
Tay Cave Kids, Yeah, feel similar. The missing Malaysian flight is similar.
That's more of like a conspiracy theory, like, oh, what the fuck happened? Like this happened.
That was like all anybody was talking about, like the first couple of days when they're like, it just never landed, like it never where do we think? So we're now at the part of the story where people are talking about how much we're talking about the story, and they're like, you know, I've heard theories that it's like has something to do with the fact that the ocean is eating the rich at a time when there's a part of everyone who feels like we should all be doing the same, eating a billionaire.
Yeah, should we swallow them whole? Yeah.
People are pointing to the fact that there are like, it's got this weird combination of funny details mixed in with tragedy, like a tragedy and so you know it contributes itself to shit posting and ed jewelrdism.
Ordian behavior. There's so many write ups about like they had they asked this, like psychology professor, like, why would wealthy people go to these high risk trips. There's apparently a documentary that's being thrown together, like, oh, that's gonna be it right now, that yeah, that many We're like, this is gonna be so sloppy. We don't even know what the fuck is happening. You are already trying to capitalize on this in a form of a like a.
Hasty television local news or like the broadcast news, like a documentary thrown together about a story that's happening currently just the nightly news. We used to have that, but I like that they're reinventing that. So the owner of the company just going all the way out on a limb about how like safety guidelines are too strict, and then he's on the thing. I think people are enjoying the irony in that, the fact that billionaire went to the bottom of the ocean in a window less hydrogen tank.
Hey there's one window. There's one window, right.
But I do think that it really goes back to just this particular genre of story where we know where the people left from, we know where they were supposed to show.
But they're not there.
Well, we don't know what happened in between. It's like a Schrodeger's cat, Like, Yeah, there's.
Also just any morbid element though too, of being so morbidly fascinated with the idea of being like essentially buried alive under the sea, which is like super like a thing like I don't know, like when anytime I see like some even like when I'll go on the submarine ride on fucking Disneyland.
Yeah, I was like, this shit is sketchy, even though.
There was like a it never actually goes under the water, like you can just pop out the top if you had to. I was like, I don't know about this. So it plays on like that kind of sort of basic fear that we have too, and I think just maybe because these people are so wealthy that it also adds like another layer of sort of distance between you and the subject matter, because.
Yeah, because it's not something that you could see anyone in your life doing. Yeah, spending two hundred and fifty thousand dollars me.
Speak yourself, Jack, I meant you were a scheduled to go on that next Yeah. Yeah, but you're right, You're like, you're too scared, And I'm like, you're right, You're right.
Yeah, I have been trying to tease you into doing this for a long time.
Yeah, and we're gonna tease Elon to do the same.
Yeah, that's right. We'll talk about that more on tomorrow's episode. I do think, like, so a lot of the stories that you were seeing now where they're like, oh, we were actually flying over there and heard some banging in the ocean, and like people who understand the scale of the ocean seem to all be of the same mind that like this is I think this is going to end in the same way the Malaysian flight one did, where it's just like we we don't know.
I think they have a better shot of finding it because at least they know like where where they were. Really, it's not gonna be like on the other side. I mean, I don't know, I don't know about ocean. Yeah, the Malaysian one.
The thing that happened there is the pilot intentionally like took it off course and yeah, so it might be more like a doomed Everest expedition, but you know those happen all the time.
And people don't go this crazy over that.
So I really do think the thing that has caught people's attention is just the Schrodinger's cat of like they're down there, or they could be down there and just running out of oxygen, or maybe they're dead, or maybe they're like bobbing on the surface somewhere, because then they just like cut off coms in the ocean so big nobody's been able to find them, and like we we just don't know, And then like if they are alive, like do they know that they are the most famous
people on the planet right now?
Yeah? The wild shit is just like everything around it, like people checking for that one billionaires like step Son going to the Blink one eighty two concert and the like thirsting after OnlyFans models on Twitter like hours later, and then Cardi B like giving commentary on that and then this kid being like leave me alone. Cardi B, You're like, what the fuck this all happened in two days? Yeah?
Or that post Anna shared with us from Dumois, the wind Item gossip site, like on their Instagram stories.
Yeah, someone sent them a tip that was like I hear they're alive and everything's cool.
A non please. Yeah, it says, hey, a noon please, But I have it on good authority that the submarine has been found and all of the crew are alive. A trust rely source who knows passengers aboard says that rescue efforts are underway. That's like, not this, I don't know. This is all fucking very strange.
That's so fucked up, because you know, the people who have family members on board are looking for any fucking glimmer of hope that they can possibly find. Like that's like chasing clicks, but also you're probably catching the clicks of the people who actually like have people in that in that sub Yeah, because this is the only good news I've seen about this story is on Dimoi.
So sadly, but it's sad.
The step son seems to be a real piece of shep. Like the stories that are coming out. He seems like he's getting a cinnamon toast crunch, shrimp tailed a little bit here, yea and milkshake duct. But I do not, in theory condemn his ability to go to a concert to take his mind off the fact that someone in his life.
Yo, if Blink one eighty two is your favorite band, apparently like it's in his handle. Yeah. Look, I don't have a billionaire fucking dad who like I don't have I don't know how y'all move, but whatever.
Yeah, but I think everybody should feel fine about doing what they need to get through difficult situations using music or you know.
Or thirsting after the OnlyFans models that.
His behavior with grossoli fail models is probably yeah, that, but.
He again, post through it, post through it, man, that's right, just keep going. All right, let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
And we're back, and there's a there's an interesting piece of propaganda that came out where it's future shock. Are remote workers doomed to have claw like hands and hunched backs, and it's this computer generated creature that they've like, you know, they're like puffy eyes, swollen limbs. This is what working from home is going to make us all look like in the future, which it feels. I don't know if it was specifically funded by a you know.
I mean it is a real estate well, I mean it is a company that makes office furniture, so that's why, you know what I mean, like they're they're they're also like, hey man, we this also affects our business if motherfuckers are working from home too. So a good bit of
get back to work propaganda. Yea, that absolutely. I don't know, but it's like so far off, like it's it's hard to look at them and be like, oh yeah, for sure, like I'm going to have I'm going to turn into like a bowling pin shaped human with like terrible posture.
The character that they've created looks a lot like Danny DeVito as the Penguin and Batman returns.
Oh yeah, yeah, Oswald cobble Pot.
Yeah, Oswald cobble Pot. I was going to say that, but I couldn't imagine that. I had that still stuck in my brain. But yeah, Oswald cobble Pot, not to be confused with Chester copper Pot, who.
Is the explorer from Goonies who I'm missing? Oh yeah yeah.
But my question on this is just like for the propagandist, what do they think people are doing it work other than hunching over laptop?
Like right?
Do they think the work from home movement is like affecting lumberjacks? Like, I don't know, it could no, it can't. Fuck Look, I'm trying to put myself in their shoes.
Yeah, this is the most low energy propaganda. Yeah, I mean, it's the kind of logic you'd use to like, you know, scare a five year old into brushing their teeth. Yeah, exactly, You like you want to see a little boy would embrest their teeth for two days? Yes, and that is not a hypothetical in my case. You get the big Book of British Smiles from the citizens, You're like, check it out. I don't know, maybe these braces, uh, but yeah,
it's I don't know. It's just it's just super funny to see that because you just read constantly about the panic in the commercial real estate sector around what the fuck are we doing with all these like business buildings we're doing in downtown's dying? And well, I totally understand that affects all the other businesses around. It's like, I don't know, you could also do something revolutionary with these buildings that are just sitting there with people needing to
occupy them, but hey, here we are. They'd rather just make propaganda to be like you're gonna be a worm person? Right, Okay, all.
Right, Mission trend possible the other possible title for this episode. Yeah, the just stories coming out from the set that are all now actually for for once, this is the first time that a story from Mission Impossible set has come out that does not go with the grain of Tom Cruise being super intense and wanting to die.
Yeah, in a way, Yeah, it's true. Like the first first one that caught my eye is that one of his co stars, Tom Clementief, was saying that she was there doing a fight scene in the movie and there was some action where she was getting kicked in the stomach and she says, quote, I kept telling him to just kick me here, like pointing to her stomach and saying, quote, I was squeezing my abs. I said, you can just
go for it. He was like no, no, no, no no. I was like, but it's going to help me, but he wouldn't do it.
Yeah, so gentlemen, also just a complete masochist and not into say it doesn't he just wants.
No, no no.
He's like no, no, no no, but I do it is in your rider that you have to just beat the shit out of me before we even get to set.
That's kind of my thing. Drag this soldering iron across my back real quick. It's like, that's not in the script. She's like, I know, but it will help me, and you're like okay, And then the other one is about like a lot of people talk about this stunt that you see where he's like riding a fucking motorcycle off a cliff and then it's just a bike and is on a parachute, and shit, I.
Mean that's the first thing they showed from the movie. That is like the like the first thing you see in the trailer to this day, Like it's.
Like, because every movie has that seminal stunt.
This one's got the most seminal oh yeah of what it did to me.
Yeah, and it could go so wrong. So this happened in Norway. Apparently they shot that stunt. That was the very first thing they shot when they went into production because Tom Cruise is like, we're they gonna figure it out, or it's gonna be a total fuck up and we're gonna have to do a rewrite, so let's just get around my death, yeah, or or they're like saying, like, maybe doesn't look as good and then at least we
can figure out how it works. And he said, and if it goes right, now, we got to figure out how to work it into the film. So like it was kind of done is to be like we got to get this in the movie. I don't know how, but let's just get it out the way, and we got something. And apparently, like this is from this article, it says to train for it, he did five hundred sky dives and over thirteen thousand motocross jumps. Yeah, and that wasn't just for him to be like all right
with it. That was just also because the director and like the DP and stuff had to figure out all the camera angles and shit like that. So this they spent a lot of fucking time. So yeah, a lot of into these missions.
There was that period where he kept doing like these videos that had kind of vague reasons to exist, but I think I think they were mostly like him thanking people for going to see Top Gun, but like they couldn't catch him during a moment where he wasn't skydiving. Yeah, I was like, oh yeah, yeah, okay, like that, I can see it, Like Planes is the movie that everyone
went and saw. But I think based on this it was actually just incidentally, there wasn't a point during that like eight month period where he wasn't jumping out of a plane. So they're just like, hey, can we get that? Can we grab this real quick?
Man? You do you think he just has like the fucking like the I guess he does. I'm sure here's the resources to be, Like, let's practice this by like you take me up in the C one thirty and I'm just gonna ride a motorcycle out the back and just try it a bunch of times and then I'll just let the bike drop and but just do it in a big ass area that we know won't hit anybody, or we'll evacuate like a ten mile area. That's so I can just do it the MI.
Practice, I'm always yeah, like when you jump out of a plane or like do those stunts and like fast and furious where they drive a.
Fucking car out of the back.
Like the amount of work that must go into just clearing an entire like city's worth of space in the middle of the desert.
Right or like it's like can't be over like a national park desert in case there's hikers. I don't know what the fuck, but hey, this is this is what we got to do to get our tom Cruise stunts. Yeah, a lot of work.
And then finally, Samuel Alito is the latest Supreme Court justice to be a symptom for the billies.
Yeah, for the billionaires. He's like, it's not just Clarence y'all. Another pro public report just coming out saying this is just a re fference to an image of him where he was like holding a like a salmon, like as he was fishing in Alaska. Said quote. In early July two thousand and eight, Samuel Alito stood on a river
bank in a remote corner of Alaska. The Supreme Court justice was on a vacation at a luxury fishing lodge that charged more than one thousand dollars a day, and after catching a king salmon nearly the size of his leg, Alito posted for a picture. To his left, a man stood beaming Paul Singer, a hedge fund billionaire who has repeatedly asked the Supreme Court to rule in his favor in high stakes business disputes. Singer was more than a fellow angler. He flew Aledo to Alaska on a private jet.
If the Justice charted the plane himself, the costs would have exceeded one hundred thousand dollars one way, one way, Yeah, one way. And then they go on and talk about how this guy has contributed over eighty million dollars to Republican think tanks, and you know, obviously Leonard Lee, like the fucking Jude, like the Federal everybody, like, he's just
making it rain on this group. And also he's given millions to the Manhattan Institute, which is another think tank that regularly files like amicus briefs with the Supreme Court least fifteen this term, including one asking the court to block student loan relief. Yeah, so you know, nothing.
To see here, So I guess they're just they are philosopher kings calling balls and strikes, and these sick fucks at pro Public need to get off with it.
Okay, fucking haters, man, he's just fish them.
And anybody who's saying what was it like the tone of those like Graam whatever who spells Braham Gram like the tone of his articles, just being like, these people are so crazy who think that this is any problem whatsoever. These are just rich people unburdening themselves of their wealth by doing nice things for people they admire.
Oh, ballers, can't kick it with ballers.
Sorry, Yeah, okay, let's lose their mindset.
There's also the only thing Alito has said about this was just saying, quote I had no obligation to recuse in any of these. Is that pro public acites? Cool? He said he's unaware of Singer's connection to the entities in the cases.
Probably never came up.
Even if you had, refusal would not have been required or appropriate. So fuck off.
Now look at this big ass SALMONI caught. It's the size of my fucking.
Exactly.
Oh fuck yeah. All right, well, those are some of the things that are trending on this Wednesday afternoon. We are back tomorrow with the whole ass episode of the show.
Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to.
Yourselves, you get the vaccine, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk to you all tomorrow.
Bye bye,
