The Good Place

That was a beautiful love story.

And the love story between Kristen Bell's character and Chidi in The Good Place.

Okay, so I didn't watch enough of The Good Place to – I like some, some love stories.

I like, like, and I do like to see people get together.

I don't like when people fuck around with the romance.

39.

He's from The Good Place and the...

I don't know what that word is.

I can't read it.

And then we get the character of Kaz.

It's played by William Jackson Harper, who people probably know The Good Place and Midsommar.

I think he's a funny character, actually.

I think he's pretty good, yeah.

People don't want to live over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

And to mention another show with some profound philosophical insight is The Good Place.

I blame that for my call to ministry.

Yeah, I

Yeah, I will be sure to put links for those events in the podcast itself.

Prophets and prophets, I want a bonus hour of this podcast to talk about altruism and what we owe each other.

The question that drives the good place.

But I'm going to

That's Stumble.

You watch The Good Place?

No, because I have a secret beef with...

What's her face? Um...

Yeah, Kristen Bell, because we went to...

We lived in the same dorm in NYU.

Listen, I fucks with Veronica Mars, and I fucks with The Good Place.

The Good Place is one of the best shows ever made.

So, like I was saying, it is a good amount of people who are important to the, like, show.

Like, instead of, like, what's another show that only really has, like, instead of, like, The Good Place that really only has five really important characters, The Office has at least, it has over, like, seven characters.

There's also Phyllis and Stanley.

So like I was saying, there's just a lot of people.

Because I watch a lot of Dragon's Den.

I don't know how into that show you are.

And yeah, and obviously since Stephen Bartlett's gone on there, it's kind of become the Stephen Bartlett show.

And a lot of that is because I think a lot of stuff is solved when you have enough leads coming in.

And a lot of that is solved when you understand the marketing piece.

Do you think brands are too trend-heavy at this point? Do you think they're too dependent on, like, finding a trend and doing that work?

Absolutely.

I think there's also this pressure internally because... at the beginning of TikTok we were operating in a different ecosystem you could post a trend and that would do really well for your brand you'd get loads of comments people would see it quite positively because it was quite rare for a brand to really participate now it just feels like whenever a cultural moment hits be it a Coachella be it a Justin Bieber rolling out youtuber in a live show every brand feels like they have to have an opinion or have a response Whereas the brands that have restraint and only participate when it's genuinely relevant to their offering, just that's when it makes sense.

You'd like it.

Maybe I'll give it a go after I finish The Good Place.

I need to finish that quickly because they're about to take it off Netflix.

Why? Because it's inappropriate? It breaks their woke rules?

Oh, it's their license had run out and they didn't want to pay for it again.

Yeah.

The show's finished and same with The Good Place.

So it's, yeah, the licenses.
