Fitzzzy: like six months ago, it was kind of absurd given the optionality. You know, the opportunity here, it kind of reminds me, I'm gonna get some heat for this. I'm not saying it's the next this or that. This two-part thesis kind of reminds me a bit like Apple, okay? Okay, hold on, hold on, here we go. Hold on, don't leave, don't leave, hold on, hold on, hold on, don't leave me. Kind of reminds me of Apple. For folks who don't know, Apple was hitting the deep value screens about 20 years ago, okay? It was a value stock. ⁓ Many people, they didn't think that they could do it. They couldn't turn around. It was a shitty company, blah, blah, blah. They didn't stand any chance, right? I hope most people know it was a huge success, right? But it was a value stock and it turned around and you had Steve Jobs crushing it, reinventing the business. Now he's a, I'm just saying, I'm just saying that the stock itself, it was a value stock and then a lot of people kind of skeptical of it, kind of betting against it, really questioning it's up against some steep competition. They were all very reasonable takes at the time. Reinvented itself. overtime with some sick products and obviously Steve Jobs leading the way and what it transformed into was a growth opportunity, right? And it was a different part of the thesis. The first part of the thesis had nothing to do with iPods, iPads. It didn't matter. No one knew that at the time. I don't know, 18 years ago, whatever it was. No one knew. It wasn't on anyone's radar. If you had invested in it, you were kind of just betting on, this looks interesting. It's really cheap. What if they do succeed? Blah, blah. But as the story evolved, as it transformed, it took on a life of its own. It was a new thesis and it transformed into this major, major growth opportunity. Okay. I'm not saying GameStop's the next Apple. I'm not saying, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying it was a value set and then it transformed and it was deserving of much larger multiples. At times it's gotten a little bit cheap. Like was it 2013? It kind of got cheap again. But this is the thing, stocks can do this. And those are some of the biggest opportunities. We can argue about whether this is going to turn into that. That's fine. That's fine. I'm just saying this is the type of stock where you don't see this too often, where it's a true stock almost priced for bankruptcy, hitting all the screens. Everyone's like, this is ridiculous. This company's done. Secular risks can't transform. As the story evolves, as you pick up more information, then you go, oh shit, wait, actually that is a really good position that they have in the industry, right? Well, we will get more into the GameStop attributes in a bit, no, it's a different type of a company. Make no mistake about it. Not forecasting a trillion dollar market. Nothing like that. Obviously not such at this point in time, such a low probability to that. It's ridiculous. I'm just saying it's not that often that I deal in one of these stocks where it evolves to a point where I'm like, ⁓ shit, this looks kind of interesting as the growth one. And the Ryan Cohen is the factor that changed that for me. If you see those, early GameStop videos, it was very ⁓ I had to assign a low probability to it because I'm like, I have no idea. The hell do I know about this stuff? But I do know kind of ⁓ like those value stock type stuff. So this is is this transition period. This is what you're going to see lots of volatility. You're going to see lots of bearish takes out there. You're to see lots of bullish takes people picking up on it. This is what happens at these inflection points. ⁓ And that's going to be the question mark, though. Like, wait a second. Is it going to become a growth stock? Is it an opportunity? And I still see some good discussions going back and forth. I'm obviously in the camp that thinks that it can succeed. I think there's lots of optionality here and I am excited about a Ryan Cohen type being at the helm because I think this guy totally, totally gets it. ⁓ I think he does. And you can say, ⁓ no, I don't think so. That's fine. You know what, like it's a different time. It's more, it's a bit more difficult to defend. All I can say is that I feel as though I'm kind of dialed into it and I'm on board. That's all you can say. You know, it's, Yeah, so anyway, then sentiment wise, sentiment wise, again, GameStop is its own unique opportunity. Ryan Cohen, his own unique badass, right? That's abundantly clear at this point. But as far as story goes, how long have you had people betting against Tesla this whole time, right? Same thing, this is a different type of a stock than Tesla, right? Different type of a stock than Apple, different type of stock than Tesla, but you have people betting against it the whole time. This is bullshit, this is bullshit, this is bullshit. There's no way this can happen, there's no way this can happen. I'm just like, absolutely it could. And you've seen me, even though I would suck at trying to value that business, make no mistake, but I have been bullish. I have been bullish on that chart, bullish on me. He's a good story till he gets that point across. If you had to take a position thus far, I tilt bullish. Anyway, I never really, I never had the position and all along the way I'm like, ah, damn, a missed opportunity, missed opportunity. And here you got GameStop where I'm like, oh, shit, sick. It kind of feels like it has that, everyone's, this is bullshit. This doesn't make any sense. Meepsock and I'm just like, oh, sick. This looks familiar to me, right? This looks familiar. Now, again, Ryan Cohen, different than an Elon Musk, but he has that ability. He just strikes me as a badass. That's all. I think along the way, people almost, like I said, against GameStop at this point, because Ryan Cohen and his crew, that Chewy crew, can affect the change that they want, you're betting against him. And I think that's a risky bet. And so those are my two comparisons at this juncture. Probably gonna get some shit for that. It's not like it's so easy to vend or anything like that, Today's episode is brought to you by GameStop. This week is double pro week. This will come back up again later, but Sean left me here by myself. double pro week. There we go. Yeah. had my daughter just got back from Vegas. She's 20, but she just went to Vegas drove there. What'd you bring? What'd you bring back? Nothing. I haven't even seen her yet. She just walked by, but I had to make sure she doesn't come busting in cause she's known for coming in and trying to have a whole conversation in the middle of the show. So. All right, I'm good. All right, let's fucking go. Let's fucking go. Let's fucking go. All right. Three, two, one. Thanks, everyone, for checking out the show. I'm Sean Fitzi. And I'm Ivy, three, five, Y for five. And this is the Echo Chamber. It's been a full court press from R.C. and his bid for eBay. We got two more interviews last week and a bunch more tweets. How did the chart look? I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. ⁓ I did with Charlotte. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it looked like ⁓ what a market thinks an acquisition looks like. Yeah, guess. One went up and one went down. Yeah, eBay went up ⁓ and we'll look at that too, because I don't know. Like the whole time eBay is going up, GameStop is making money. What I kind of probably want to do is put them next to each other. But I think GME is up like over 500 million on that position. Is the math. I think if they were, if they got in at around $80. Which I think is what the story is. Cause it was like early February. see. I think I marked it off right here. Yeah. They got in when it was in the 70s or 80s. Yeah, some shit like that. So I'll go down here. we'll just say like. February, right? Yeah, it's like February 2nd or something. 36 % though. So $31 up on that. I had ChetGBT do some numbers. It's a lot. you know, eBay goes up. That's good for us too. If they drop it too low, RC can swoop in and get a better price. Cause I think that's kind of what's happening there. We're waiting on on that. So, OK, how have you been, IB? I'm good, man. Just been hanging out. went to a card show this weekend. First card show I've ever been to. Oh, shit. Did you see Newton? Richard Newton? I don't know. He sold all of his Pokemon. So I had a card show is what I saw. Oh, nice. No, I didn't see him. Or maybe I did. Maybe I bought his stuff. Yeah. What did you see? Well, I mean, I don't I don't know if he cut his hair yet, but. Do you know what he looks like? I'm not sure if you're. I mean, I've seen a couple of his videos back when he was doing them. Yeah. But he was technical and I'm not a technical person, but yeah, good weekend. Card show. Like I said, I've never been to a card show. Took my family up there. It's really cool to connect and network like there's I was walking to like every table talking to everybody, you know, asking them, you know, how long you've been doing this, where you're from, whether or not you have a local shop. in your area, whether or not you're on a social media. That's cool. Probably the whole goal, was, was geared out in GameStop gear, obviously. Yeah. And so the whole goal was to figure out, know, who had social media, who I could talk to about Powerpacks. ⁓ And pretty much everybody that did have social media already knew what Powerpacks were and were already ripping Powerpacks. Almost everybody that I spoke to that knew what Powerpacks were, tried to get me to do like when I was buying a card or buying an ETB, they kept doing like the double or nothing flip trades for it. I'm not that type of gambler. So I wasn't playing those games, but it was pretty neat because once they knew that I was doing power packs, they were like, okay, maybe this guy's a gambler. How can I play him? But when we were leaving, my wife made a good point. Probably, I'd say 75 % of the people I talked to, all the tables, do not have social media, but want it. So there's like a market there to I mean, obviously it's marketing, but. So what do mean? the vendors, the vendors don't have vendors, don't have social media, like sell themselves. I would think in today's world, that'd be one of the first steps, huh? Right. But you would think, I mean, but most of them, they, from what it sounded like, they, they're the people that you see standing in the lawn and they show up, they come to these card shows every weekend, every weekend. How far away was it from me? For me, it was about 30 minutes. Because I don't even know. did a few, I want to go to a card show. I want to take my daughter. I'm trying to get my youngest into it with me. so I've been kind of trying to look around for one, but it doesn't seem like they're too often or I'm looking in the right spot, but, ⁓ so are they, are they often around you? Do you have card shows or is it like once every two or three months? Yeah. Where I'm at, really. ⁓ cause I'm kind of remote, but about an hour away is the main ones. And they do them often up in like Huntsville area. ⁓ If you know any of where NASA is, there's a big card scene out there. There's a big collectible scene out there period. yeah, where I'm at, you might have to Google, I don't know what your area is like. I'm happy that mine is small because when I see the ones on like YouTube and Instagram, they're always, they're like shoulder to shoulder, you know? And then next to these vendors. And these little civic centers. I'm very claustrophobic. I don't like that. So, the fact that I could kind of breathe in mine was really nice because we don't have that many people, but it was still a really big turnout. Sweet. So, did you buy anything? Did you sell anything? Yeah. I bought. I didn't bring. So, my cousin brought a bunch of stuff to trade and sell and they were asking me why I didn't bring anything. And I was sitting there going through my stuff. was looking at my back stock, looking at my cards, looking at my bonders. And I was like, there's just nothing. that I want to sell. Like I can't get rid of it. I guess I'm a hoarder at this point. I can't get rid of it. Like it's gotta be, I'm gonna have to put one of those prices on it. That's like, you know, it's it's a, it's a dollar card, but I got a thousand dollars sticker on it. You know what saying? Cause that's the only way I'll let it go. Yeah. It's gonna be an enormous amount of money for it. Seems like I was talking to Phil, for sure that's diaper king, but in the discord, um, I it was him. Maybe it was, it was. Spurs. But either way, like it's like the the Pokemon community or they're all just diamond hands. Like no one's just want to sell it. At least the ones I talked to, no one wants to sell their shit. It's all about just like holding on to it, which is fucking cool. I was saying, I'm not going to lie. I looked hard at my Pokemon after this last weekend because I got fucking smoke last week. Like, huh, do I need all these cards? I kept the likelihood they keep going up. Yeah, I know. I'm trying to rethink my strategy. I'm feeling overloaded on like 20 to $50 cards. I like I don't need that because I don't know. So I don't know. I don't know if I should just take the eBay or the PSA offer and kind of like consolidate that is what I'm thinking and maybe go in on a couple bigger ones. Yeah. I don't know. I was talking to KJ about it and I think the bigger returns are going to be on like the four to $500 cards kind of thing. So yeah, I'm constantly trying to figure that out. I might be doing a little bit. like going into money options or out of money. Exactly. Exactly. Because like what? So like what's going to hit on a $20 card, like a 2025, you might get lucky in like four or five years. It might blow up to the point where. See, it seemed like thousand percent gains. That's my thought at least. Um, where you could probably get something way quicker. Even two X things, a $500 card is, going to be pretty nice. So I guess it just depends. The fell hat Pikachu went from like a hundred dollars to a thousand dollars in. Yeah. Non months. So that's crazy. You're right. Yeah. You're right about that. I'm, I'm, I'm focusing on Pikachu too. And I think they had the power pack, the lightning one. I don't think they have that anymore. Yeah, my cousin, I got really she got really lucky that her favorite Pokemon is this mouse hold. It's this little white like three mice Pokemon. Yeah. So we bought a bunch of those at the card show because they were all like a dollar. It was great. So you need to get a cheaper Pokemon as your favorite Pokemon and then you can buy them out. Yeah, I don't know. I think we were talking about Psyduck. I think Psyduck is kind of cool. He looks like he might have some of the weed too. So I'm about side X seems like he's chill to hang out with. see, was trying to click on the power packs, but I don't know if I want to like pull it up. I've been liking silver. I haven't, it's about that time for me to grab a couple of packs. So I'm trying to, it's like a whole thing for me now that I do it like once every week or two, I'll get a pack or two and try to enjoy the experience. Cause really it's done. I get anything over like If I equal or get above what I paid, I just hold onto it. you know, it's done in like a minute. Got another two weeks. I I wrote a few starters on there. I was post talking about the 70 % change instead of the 50 % floor. Yeah. So I wrote a couple. I hit the floor every time, but it was nice. It was nice to see that the floor has raised. Yeah. 70. Yeah, that's good news. Shop games. I will probably just kind of cover it as we go. You were like a literal GameStop billboard over the weekend, which is pretty fucking slick. ⁓ But yeah, they lowered their raise the floor from 50. I think they did it a couple of weeks ago. Honestly, it was just kind of in the quiet, but they raised it from 50 to 70 percent floor on Pokemon cards all the way up to right. Is that right? Like the That's ⁓ that's the new Tronium, but I haven't tested it. I'm not a Neutronium roller. Not there yet. Maybe one day. Sensei. Maybe one day. He me 5k. Bro, I already said my wife would fucking kill me. That would be the most ridiculous. I mean, you could win a lot of money. I've seen some big hits too, but I know my luck when it comes to that shit if I were to put 5,000 on it, I'd get floored. I'm sure. And then I'd be pissed. And then I'd like fucking reroll. And then, I mean, you're not putting 5,000 on it. You're putting 2,500 or whatever 70 % is. But 2,800. don't know. Yeah, I hear you. I hear you. Maybe one day, maybe one day I've done some gold. Those are fun. Gold and silver are kind of sweet. I don't want to go back to starters no more. Uh, was trying, I was having issues though. I don't think I could get into my, my vote right now. I got a lot going on with this computer and it scares me. So like if I could like if anything happens, like I was saying before we got started, I regressed when it came to software for the show hardware to it was crashing my my browser. I'd you were you were like my trouble. I was just bouncing all that shit off you over the last couple of days, but it was a whole like weeks worth of troubleshooting that resulted in me having to plug straight into the computer now. So but my browser isn't crashing anymore. So that's good. There you go. incremental steps towards progress. PTSD on it now though, because it'll kick me off and then we got to restart everything. ⁓ So yeah, anyways. Yeah, we're doing video podcasts, by the way. Anyone listening? This is the echo chamber where GameStop bulls. You know, we don't we don't talk bearish shit about GameStop. No bloody wank. No bloody wanker talk. No fucking, you know. Selling covered call conversation and plans out there. That's not what we're about. We're bullish on GameStop. ⁓ there's a lot of that talk lately too, which is crazy being that we're down near our low of the year, but anyways, ⁓ yeah. Yeah. We're clever. We started, we've been doing, we've been doing an audio pod. Go ahead. Sorry. No, no, no. My bad. Go ahead. ⁓ you're right. Now. So we're doing an audio. We've been, it's an audio podcast. It's been going through the RSS feeds. ⁓ I hosted on pod being. So switching over to video, which is what we are trying, has caused a little bit of hiccups. So if anyone was on Apple, you got the video of last week's episode, which was really good, by the way, y'all. should definitely go back and check it out. Bartok did an excellent job. Em was awesome. We had a good time. But one of those clips in there about the Power Pack revenue went pretty good for a clip of the show. Most people don't really like to repost show clips and stuff. The numbers are looking pretty massive. So we're all very excited to see how they look on quarter one. So yeah, if you didn't catch last week, go look at it. It's in video form on our YouTube, the live version of it. ⁓ It lived on Apple podcasts for about a day, but Spotify, it broke the Spotify feed. So I had to like go back to MP3 audio only through our RSS feed. Anyone's following that? Yeah. Anyways, we'll figure it out. We'll figure it out. got to I got to got to fucking migrate hosts to Riverside. And at that point, should be able to publish video to all of the feeds. So you'll get a live version of the show when we record it like we are right now. Hello, everyone. What's up, Silver Lake? ⁓ Where's Polly been? Polly's not doing the show no more, y'all. He's got a lot going on with his life. And he won't be doing the show with us. He will. I'm sure he'll come in and we'll, we'll talk. He's, he's still a homie. It was awesome. He, you know, he was here for the first year and a half with me. So appreciate everything that he did with me, but yeah, he's not going to be on this show anymore. All right. Well, I got that out of the way. I hadn't really had been like three weeks now. So, but he's doing awesome. He's getting fucking retweeted by RC. That's funny. That was absolutely beautiful. Couldn't be happier. That's, that's the shit, man. Like I, one day, one day maybe, right? I probably know that I won't. We'll see. don't write like that. I'd vote him for on eBay's board. He's the, he's the chairman or the chairman of the beard, right? Is that what it is? Yeah. Chairman of the beard. That's good. I like that. Yeah, it was a good, we've talked about it on the show actually last week too. was a really good post he made and. It got picked up by the TBPN guys, which was really cool. And they thought he was the chairman of eBay, which was funny. then, ⁓ and then our senior quote tweeted it with like an emoji, which is just awesome. And then it became like GameStop lore because he got a 425 filing out of it. So that's fucking awesome. I'm pretty sure he's going to try to grade that somehow. Yeah. Yeah. So I saw I got it printed out. Uh, he said he was trying to figure out how he was going to frame it because he wanted to incorporate the, the target in with it. Yeah. Well, the target's important. It's that target's in the emoji timeline for one. Um, and he's been dropping a few. Well, I mean, there's a lot of emojis in the emoji timeline. So hold on. me, let me get my pipe. get it. DfE 10 is cool. Uh, RC 10 is fun. After that, starts getting a little, a little crazy, but I mean, he made the timeline for a reason and he, and he added that shit from black and white. Anyone who knows what I'm talking about knows what I'm talking about. Um, the flag emoji with the mic and the music, that's all he had to put those together. He had to make them black and white and then color. He had to do all that shit. So question is, is that what happened with Chewy and like is the, um, the Kansas city shuffle was that Chewy or? I know some people, maybe M is thinking that the Kansas city shuffle. I don't know she thinks it's the Kansas city shuffle, but she thinks that coin might be kitty. You see that shit right one? Yeah. he tweeted it. Allegedly, not allegedly. mean, that coin's still doing okay too. think it was, it got to like a 12 million market cap. Yeah. I don't have a lot to say on that. don't. I don't think he got hacked. know that. Interesting. mean, it's in my opinion. mean, I don't know it, I think he got hacked. The recovery was too fast. Really fast. Just like it was with his brother. What do you mean? Oh, when he got hacked. Oh, are you, you're about to go to another level with this? No, no, no. I'm just saying I don't believe he got hacked. I I'm not saying there's an intention. I'm just saying it. It's just, it's just, ⁓ just weird, you know, and I don't really think it matters all that much, but it is interesting. mean, he's got, he's still got the headband on, ⁓ on the profile picture. I switched to it. So, so yeah, he got the account back real fast. The post got deleted immediately, like immediately and, ⁓ and he kept the profile picture change. So I don't know. Yeah. You're, don't know. I don't know. Maybe, or it's not, or it's not secured, but that'd be kind of crazy, right? If it's not secured yet at this point. I mean, if you're hacking it, I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of, a of things that could be done if you're hacker. There's a lot of things that could be done if you're Keith Gill. ⁓ All I know is about GameStop and GME. That's it on the open market, the real Wall Street market. And okay, well whatever, that's no fun. So I'm just gonna a 10 guy. I love you though, kids. I don't want people coming for me. Yeah. Blaming you for when they YOLO. Like this guy right here. Yeah. ⁓ Don't play tinfoil everyone. It's rule number one for sure. Smoke it. Smoke it by yourself. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What'd I put? ⁓ I made a yeah, I made the we are here now meme. No, I mean, maybe he was just trying to see, ⁓ you know, just show his brother, like maybe he doesn't like Kevin. And he was like, yo, check this out. I can drop a meme coin and make it more expensive than your meme coin. Make it look like shit. And I don't even care about this meme coin. Yeah, that, well, the creator made over a million for sure. For sure. ⁓ The fees were like significant. So that person made a lot of money. Kevin was on stream acting like we did it. But I think. ⁓ He could have been celebrating the fact that all shit coins were pumping at that moment. Cause it was crazy. Everything GME related bump. ⁓ but yeah, speaking of it was, was crazy time. What? ⁓ yeah. was crazy. It was crazy time. ⁓ God. And then the, the filing slid in at the same exact time with the, the, well, the proxy for the shares. on the 12th too, right? It was the day before. Yeah, it was crazy. Well, maybe I don't know about the date now. But that was crazy. I forgot we were talking about someone talking about people calling it though. But I got you copy calling that we are here again. Even calling that shit since July 2024. ⁓ But maybe we're here. That'd be fun, right? That's the real chart too. I took some time to make that. Did we dip below our cash? ⁓ What now? Yeah, when we were in the 21s, was that below our cash value? I mean, I guess it kind of doesn't count because what, four billion of that cash value is convertible bonds. Yeah, dad. Yeah. ⁓ So, yeah, that was yeah, we got down under that. We got real close though, right? Like, you take into account ⁓ everything like what we have to offer cash wise. Yeah, we got down right to it real close. We got to say we set a lower low today, Fucking 2142. It's worth calling a double bottom, I think. We need to bring back. How low can you go, Jimmy? Fuck that game, bro. ⁓ wait. No, that game. No, that one's a good one, right? That's the accumulated so many shares. That's a fun game. Whoever can get the lowest ⁓ cost basis on the day, right? Was that the game? Yeah. Yeah, that's a fun game. Could be a bottom there. We didn't get a bunch of volume. Candles looking pretty nice, though. I don't know. We'll see. You also just called BTC to 43 K. How you copy did. Yeah. And his brother is a Coke head. So we're like, think we agree on a few things, bro. Um, yeah. Do you mean he's pushing 22? It's looking good. What's up everyone in chat. Feel free to talk. Feel free to say, Hey, um, try to make this as interactive as possible. Try to make this as easy as possible too. I've been working on my workflow with IB, but. Trying to make this shit go straight from like recording to, to live or well, yeah, I'm proud of you for going live. I hate that you decided to start going live and then invited me to be on the show because I do not want to be here in a live show, but it's okay. You're right. There's not many people here. ⁓ we're doing all right. All So, so I guess we can actually move on to what we're talking about. So the, the, the full core press is kind of like the topic. So we've got two interviews from RC last week. And in addition to that, he was all over social media. Pull up his ex profile too. He's been killing it. Yeah, he really has. It's awesome. You know, it started with the PFP changes and the POOT tweet leading into last week. You are wrong. Is this a POOT tweet is what I think you asked. And it looks like it was. Yeah, well, with the profile, it definitely was with the profile picture change. That was, I was trying to ignore that it was poop related, right? Like that was. Yeah, he's been tweeting a lot. Yeah. So I was trying to ignore it then, but when he actually just used the poop emoji, I was like, uh-oh. And we should have just still though, got even worse too, like way worse. That was, you still had plenty of time on Monday if you were in anything. Um, but yeah, full court press is pretty cool what he's doing. Um, you know, did you, did you have a chance to, did you listen to the interviews? How'd they go for you? think, I think I've seen everything except for the, uh, the Anthony one. saw some clips from that one. The Pierce one was on point. I was surprised he was ever even on Pierce Morgan, but he had, I really enjoyed that. Um, I don't think Pierce was a negative. I think he was, he was pretty neutral. I mean, he's still playing the crony questions, but, uh, he, he let RC talk and that's usually what doesn't happen. So it was nice to let RC talk. It was nice for someone as big as Pierce to let RC talk. Cause I mean, when he goes on our When he's talking to little people, I mean, not little people that I think Anthony's got like 2 million followers, but you know what saying? They're not on television MSM type interviews. So the fact that MSM let him talk, that was, that was really cool. Yeah. So, so I don't know shit about Pierce. So he's on, he's on MSN. that what you're saying? Oh, no, I was mainstream media. Oh, okay. Okay. Sorry. was thinking Microsoft network or MSNBC or some shit. Yeah. He's a big, he's a big name. I know that he, the show. prior to R.C. coming on was super heady. It was very political. There was a lot of stuff. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of conversation going on there. it was a weird segments shift. Yeah, for real. I think it was. Yeah, there is some very political stuff going on there. Well, I mean, maybe not political, but like I said, heady. So that was that was cool. You know, we've gotten our three standard CNBC hate interview, TBPN. Well, Charles, like, know, sweet interview and then TBPN just kind of like hanging out deep dive. He's got like three versions of his, of his interviews, but we got, we got two more, which were like from, from like, you know, pump planio. How do you say it? How do you say it? Is it pump planio? know, that sounds good to me. Yeah. The, the, yeah, by the way, it made me feel bad. need to step up my podcasting game, bro. I'm definitely not wearing a suit right now. That dude, that dude's at a desk. It looks like he's about to like file some, some legal briefs or some shit where it does look like a lawyer. Yeah, exactly. Recording. Just recording and just talking business, I guess with fucking billionaires and stuff. He's got a big following, but yeah, that's not, I guess I need to, I need to be better. I'm wearing sweats. I had a hoodie on, but now it's a long sleeve. So, all right. Yeah. So I'm trying to, let me get my notes back up here. Nobody likes when you try. Just so you know. The more you try, better you utilize your stuff, ⁓ the good you are. The harder you try, the more people can nitpick. The worse you try, the more low effort you are, the more people can see your quality. You know what saying? Because there's nothing else good about you other than like we're low effort everywhere else. Not you. That made me think do or do not. There is no try. That's what I just do a little bit. A little Yoda there. All right. So, uh, so my notes on, on Pierce, he, uh, he brought up, you know, the CNBC article. So it started out with that. So that was pretty, uh, he he got hit on that a couple of times. They were both laughing. Both, both of them, Pearson and Pumplano. Okay. I'm going to just destroy that every time. Um, he's got AP. He's AP media now. AP media. Um, Yeah, so they both they both brought up that interview. It was more jokey. R.C. was cracking up about it. It was it was viral as fuck that half cash, half stock. Anyway, so you brought a burr leaving and then he just kind of went it went into this is Pierce. He went into doubts about the eBay deal. He of he kind of going back to that to R.C.'s main point like when he's like because the question is how how are you going to do this? What makes what are you selling? And he's basically selling himself. That's kind of what both interviews come down to is that the eBay board and management doesn't give a shit. They're overly bloated. They need to take those M-PIC. I think that's what he said on Pierce. Maybe it was the other one, Pumpliana. He specifically said he's trying to do something transformational that's never been done in capital markets. This is it. He's doing basically a reverse merger like almost. And his whole goal is to just replace the and acquire the company. That's it. Yeah. Make me the boss. Yeah. Yeah. think it was, and, and why, because they'll save at least $2 billion right away. That's kind of like, it's kind of like what his selling point is. And then he goes, look what I did with GameStop. And it's true. You know, and then, you know, look what he did with Chewy. There was a lot of times they went to him about the Amazon thing that, quote about him wanting to take on Amazon. That got asked on both interviews. I thought he answered that well, which is like, no one can take on Amazon. He's not trying to be Amazon. He's just trying to be big like Amazon. wants, he wants to attack it, like grow it. Say it again. Sorry. In a, different sector, specifically collectibles. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Collect it's very much about collectibles. ⁓ I'm trying to see here. Yeah. He wants to scale like Amazon, not necessarily compete directly with them. Cause like, ⁓ Pierce was like, ⁓ you know, Bezos is going to hear that. He's not going to like it. ⁓ there's a couple of questions about Trump in there. ⁓ he got asked about, ⁓ Plute in there as well. And, know, just, just because he said he's a good guy, literally he's a good guy. That was all he said. It spawned off all kinds of, told you so's and. Fucking now what do you think, Fitzy? I still think he just fucking, Plute doesn't know shit about GameStop. He's friendly with RCE and he used that to help himself out in the community. That's what I think. Good old Plute. But yeah, just saying he's a good guy doesn't mean it. We did get, you know, the Trump conversation did kind of spin off to some tin foil because he has been a Trump supporter. ⁓ They asked if he talked to... think he asked if he talked to Trump about it. They asked if he talked to Elon. Said no, not really. you know, Trump bought, it was, came out that Trump bought eBay as well. So some shares, a good chunk too. So more tinfoil about the whole Trump and, you know, but like that's tinfoil I'm not going to smoke either. I stick with RC and Kitty. ⁓ I was trying to dip my toes into the Burrito, but I'm glad I don't have to anymore. See, he said, so he had, he went with some quote headlines too. think he did that on purpose. I've heard he's got a marketing director. I don't know her name. Heard him mentioned a few times, but I think she gets him prepped up pretty good. Cause he had, he had that Ozempic quote and then he had, you know, they're run by a bunch of losers. He said that as well. So let me just take a drink. My throat's getting dry. Shoot. What's up, Arkane? Woo. Sorry. Trump has been an RC supporter. I agree. Um, well, I mean, RC was at Mar-a-Lago. I haven't seen Trump say too much about RC. I guess we did the White House tweet. We got that. That was like the White House tweeting about GameStop and messing around. So I guess we could say there's some support, some support there. So, um, BBB Y got brought up by Pierce too. said he left because he was not in control. So I don't know, whatever. These are just things I was trying to like, it's the stuff you see after the fact that are like gotchas because of these little things I just wanted to bring up. So I know, I thought Pierce was really good. I think he kind of went at him, not hostile, but like pressed him on it. He laid out the plan to Pomplyana. Pomplyana. He laid out the plan pretty good. And I think I have it queued up here that I'll play when we take a little break. If I can get my shit together. I don't know. I don't know. Can you play a YouTube video through a YouTube live video? Anyone know that out there? No idea. Yeah. You're right. So we're like, got a different desktop. Yeah. We'll see what happens. I'm trying to not do copyrighted material anymore, bro. Like I'm trying to play it nice and clean. So game. So YouTube doesn't hate me. All right. He criticized. eBay's leadership for not buying shares. We all know that's the case. It's kind of funny that they say it's not worth it at $125 a share, but they're selling it like 105 and shit. Yeah, they're just not him. He's going to be an owner. That was like the main thing he kept coming back to. He's going to run it like an owner. He's going to care. He's going to get in there. He's going to he's going to be involved with the sellers. He's well. customer service and his group, he's going to be involved with making sure that the sellers are happy and taken care of. he's gonna, he's going to cut the blowout immediately is what I expect. And you know, that's why all those eBay folks are fighting back is, is because they don't want to lose their fucking jobs. And, know, that's pretty much what he said too. So he did mention AI by the way, guys, AI, AI, AI, AI, RC said Ryan Cohen, the chairman of GameStop said, artificial intelligence. Let's try to fucking maybe the algos listening. AI. All right. ⁓ Okay. So yeah. So that's part one of his full core press. It was pretty nice. I think both those interviews were good. They're exciting. Pompano teased it a little bit. And I don't even have the chart on me. Share this tab. Sorry, guys. Nothing's happened. I do have some critiques of some of the things he said. Go for it. So it's GameStop bull, but still I have I have critiques. So he's talking about the website being like 95. You know, it's it's not 95. He clarified, you know, it's been updated, but it's still kind of archaic. But from my perspective, if I'm in my job now where I'm at, what I do and how I perform in order to get something done. I usually provide an example. So I work in development. So I can't just say, Hey, you're doing this wrong. And if you give it to me, I'll do it better. Yeah. Doesn't work like that. Instead, what I do is I build a prototype. And from my perspective, GameStop has a great opportunity. like corporate loves these words opportunity, right? So if you go to GameStop.com, uh, looks like a 90, 1995, maybe early 2000s website. And data is not really that easy to search. ⁓ yeah, I got some critique. You're talking about GameStop's website. Yeah, and he's talking about live commerce, live e-commerce. Legally, there's nothing stopping from GameStop from creating live commerce on their own website to prototype how this acquisition would be beneficial for everybody. So I do have critiques with his activist attacks like he can go after the board for lack of innovation. But I haven't seen him other than cut and and shares and convertible bonds. I'm not knocking GameStop. I believe fully in GameStop. I believe fully in the community. But the innovation is lacking. Still, I think you should build some prototypes to show eBay what it could be, especially with live commerce, because whatnot does it great. So that's fair. I will, I will say that his, he has attempted innovation and that shit backfired pretty horribly. I don't know about horribly. Well, I'm putting that on the last CEO. was Mike Furlough or Matt Furlough. The marketplace. Yeah. Not for long, right? Yeah, not for long. So, so I think, and I think his response to that when he took over as CEO was to really like not fuck around like that no more. ⁓ that's, that's kind of how my take on it was with, with GameStop and their financials. don't know. It's like, or maybe not like, I don't know, being like too loose with it. You know, there's a I see a lot of time people talk about like, ⁓ you know, RSC is going to pull this big gotcha with like selling all of this and then buying this and forcing a share recall. Like he doesn't, he doesn't really do any of that shit. He's very like, he'll, he'll hint to us that he's buying Bitcoin. and then he'll fucking buy Bitcoin. He'll hint to us that he's doing an NFT marketplace. We'll fully know about it before it happens. And then it happens. You know, we all knew about eBay. ⁓ So like he's not, he's not as adventurous when it comes to the company as we would like to think maybe. Based on like evidence of what he's done these last five years and these interviews with eBay, he's very good at doing what nobody else is, which is the obvious. Just cut, trim some fat. Uh, you know, create more efficiency, create more automation. Um, and then you've got a good foundation to start from. Like, uh, uh, if you're not, if you weren't a tech company, initially when you, uh, you were founded, your data is messed up. Your data is a spaghetti. It's just spaghetti. I've seen those games where it's like, ⁓ the whole foundation is built on one like fucked up piece of code or some shit. Yeah. Well, it's just all spaghetti because it's ⁓ at one point, like nothing is machine readable. So he's not wrong that all of this is, is out there and it's, it could be easily fixed and it just needs somebody to pull the trigger and actually do it. But, know, that's all that, that foundation is what I've seen him build. And I'm ready to see. Like I want this acquisition to go through because I want to see what that innovation can bring. I just wish you would build a prototype to show off to eBay what it could be. Arcane's talking about the GCX GameStop card exchange, I think is what that stands for. Have you seen anything about that? Do you know what I'm talking about? You have not? I have not. ⁓ it's tinfoil. So that's probably why you haven't seen it, but it's actually a tweet out about it today, but. I think elite, don't know. I don't want to, cause I don't know it all, but I think it came from the company too. Like they found something and it was like, uh, an exchange being built. Arcane, if you want to type about it out there in chat. Um, I can, I can read it maybe, but, uh, yeah. And it's got some really nice UI and it talks about being like certified by like FICA or the banks or some shit. Yeah. So it's like, it's a whole thing. Yeah. I want to be clear. I'm not knocking. Powerpacks is beautiful. That's another thing. We're capitalizing on things that can be capitalized on, but Powerpacks is not new. They didn't create it. They built something better than what already existed. And that's great. That's usually what happens. Apple came in and built something better than what already existed. The iPhone. But yeah, if you're going to be that aggressive, it's good to have a prototype. Because all you can do right now is just go after the board and leadership. That's what he's doing. And I mean, they asked him to like, he's not selling to retail. Like this whole spew, you know, they're not, it's not for us. Like all this old full core press is all for institutions. They're heavily owned by institutions. Yeah. So like that's not, which is crazy. Cause like, you know, GameStop is completely different too. They brought that up. Like we're retailing. Like I think we're over 48 % is, you know, the unofficial official numbers or some shit like that. ⁓ once you take out institutions and, and RC it's funny like institution percent goes up, RC goes up. Well, I guess we've let out a few more shares too. It'd be interesting. One day maybe we'll actually get a share recall and see what's, what's all going on out there. So yeah. ⁓ yeah. Power packs. I was going to say that's kind of, ⁓ that's kind of, I, That's kind of different, I guess, but you're right. Other places have done it. I think the partnership with PSA was, is what's going to like completely set that apart. They're connections. They have better connections than anybody that's going to come into the game. Yeah. Like there's these other vaults out there that I don't even want to fuck with. like I see- usually. Yeah. I see all these like commercials or like on TikTok or, and it's like, they're getting like six, nine or some fucking singer. Or some basketball player to be like, ⁓ look at this fucking Charizard I pulled. Save it in the vault. I'm like, ⁓ I don't know about all that shit. Like thousands of dollars to this random fucking company. So, you know, that's, I think the partnership's good, but, ⁓ the, the live selling thing is super interesting. ⁓ I don't watch much of that. I know we got some people that have like their own whatnot in the discord. Can I sell Pokemon and stuff? wife was just talking about it last night cause she's, she's looking for clothes. ⁓ and there's these, ⁓ ladies that do like the fast changing. Have you ever seen these videos where they, it's just like a lady in front of a phone on, you know, on cameras, like whatnot or whatever. And then somebody's just handing her clothes and she's putting them on in like 10 seconds, showing them off and taking them off and then putting something else on. It's just, it's fast. My wife loves it because you can kind of see how the material flows. know, like my grandma and grandpa, you know, it's, it's gun smoke. And QVC like live, ⁓ live TV, live, e-commerce. That's, that's a big thing. And it's just, it's getting bigger. So there's really got to lean into it. Yeah. can't believe eBay hasn't done it either. Well, they got their shitty version of it, ⁓ that I like accidentally stumbled into, but I see that there's like a lot of restrictions on becoming a seller there. It's really hard. ⁓ I think with all things eBay related, it's fee heavy. So now that's all. Where were they trying to compete with whatnot? Did they come after whatnot showed up? I think, I mean, it's there. you, if you cruise around YouTube, you'll fall, fall, or mean eBay, you'll fall into it on accident. And it'll just be like some crazy shit, but, um, I see it on Tik TOK too. It's like, it's like the live car. see it with Pokemon on Tik TOK, but you'll just like, there's a couple of girls in the back, like wearing bathing suits, Um, For real too. And what are you watching? Yeah, I know. Right. And then my wife walks up behind me and like, fuck, it's just Pokemon, babe. I'm sorry. But they're like, they're like speed running pack selling or some shit. I don't even know what's going on. I really don't. It's like very chaotic. But they have it on one or two, I think. And it's kind of wild, but they do some wheel spin and some dude wins after bidding. And then they get a Toasted something like that. I don't know if you saw that a while back. They did. I think one, maybe two whatnot streams. ⁓ with the game stuff. Yeah. Yeah. ⁓ yeah. I think it was a Mississippi. They had like, ⁓ some streamers from Mississippi to it, but they only did that once or twice and then I haven't seen them do it since. Huh? That's yeah. That's well, I mean, that's the thing that RC did sell a bit was, ⁓ our 1600 locations could be. Yeah. Very good for that. saw I saw people are doing whatnot streams and selling like literally walking into stores and Selling shit off the rack at a store for fucking live viewing. It's that's wild shit The 1600 store thing is perfect because I didn't grade cards. I've had a bunch of cards I've talked about grading them when GameStop started doing PSA or you know selling PSA on the website before they started great, you know taking them in store for grading I kept telling my wife, like, if they, I want to grade these cards. And she's like, you just need to grade them. I was like, I'll you what, I'm going to hold off. And if GameStop ever starts accepting cards, I'll grade them. And as soon as they did, I started dropping them off. Now I'm in a situation where I would like to sell a few things on eBay, but I don't really want to get it set up. I don't really want to get a store started. I want to play all this. if they could use those 1600 stores and maybe some kind of seller's account where I don't have to have, um, You know, reputation myself, just like how PSA does the cells for the vault. If I don't have to have the reputation, but I can take it to game stuff, either packaged or unpackaged. They sell it and I get the profit. That's crazy. Live. I get the profit. Yeah. And live. Yeah, that'd be fun. All of a sudden I see EB or IB like stream crashing. That'd be funny. You have to tell me. All right. That's good shit. like it. I'm excited about it. really hope it goes through fucking polymarket has it at 16 % possible RC when he was asked about that said, I don't know what would, what, what do you think they said about, ⁓ game stop going bankrupt? You know, they probably had it even more likely. ⁓ so I don't know. He's got, he's definitely got a chip on his shoulder about that, which I like. I kind of do too. This is going to be a big, I told you so one day here. ⁓ arcane said RC could have developed an alpha version of CGX and power packs could even be running on a partial CGX to prove the system. So, yeah, we're, I'm have to show you that one day what it, what it is. Cause it's pretty, pretty slick. So, all right. So the other part of the full core press was social media. So every, every tweet is getting, ⁓ posted to the filings, you know, I think that's so, so like it's official and I don't know how this works with like the eBay board and all that stuff, but, um, he's getting everything, everything in there, including Polly's. So yeah, Polly's a 425. Yeah. He's part, part team 425. So that's cool. We got all kinds of stuff like where he's saying, uh, or they're just talking shit about eBay. This, you know, just all of these tweets are getting, getting filed. So that's just a, you know, more of his public pressure campaign. He's out there searching social media. found out he looks at Twitter an hour a day guys. So, know, you get yourself, I wish we knew when we'd all get lined up. Yeah. mean, ⁓ So yeah, I'm way over an hour for sure. Yeah. Maybe he's on Instagram. Nevermind. That's true. They didn't, they didn't clarify. They stuck with Twitter specifically, right? Yeah. Well, I hope it's Twitter. mean, that's where everyone is with the community, but he's on an hour. we, if he could tell us when we'd like time our memes perfectly, just hit him with it. We get all like pretty for RC when he comes on Twitter. It's standing in the line. Anyway, maybe that's just me. ⁓ all right. So, so he's doing the filings. He's tweeting everything. He's searching Twitter, looking for, you know, tweets about eBay. He's pulling from the community. know, ⁓ Reese got quote tweeted as well. So that's all cool. Like I like that. It's better with. Huh? Did he make a filing? Yeah, I'm pretty sure they all did. Let's see what Reese's was. Yeah. This is disgusting. Disgusting. It's an old gif or meme or whatever, but yeah. Um, yeah. At least it's not like, you know, the one's calling him retarded. He's, he's pulling the people out that are like supporters, you know, I would like to see that. think the guy who caught him retarded is a supporter. pretty sure. Yeah. Yeah. He got caught up. It sucked. It sucked for him. I see, I see him around. I got caught up too, but he deserved, um, Let's see what else he did his options, his options ended. so they, they allowed them back and they all close on, on five 13. So, you know, tinfoil had a really rough week. You know, there's a lot of five 12 hype. ⁓ what was Monday? Cause I was hyped about Monday. I was hyped about the weekend and, kitty. Yeah. So I'm sitting there thinking mother's day, like fucking, so I was let down on Monday and then we got wrecked on the chart. ⁓ but. Yeah, that's what the market does, right? If the market believes an acquisition is going to Yeah. Tell me if I'm wrong. I'm not a big market mechanic guy. I just went reading a little bit. I was looking into things. So if the price of the to be acquired starts rising about midway between the proposal price and the ⁓ the proposal time when it was initially proposed and whatever the price was, was that like a hundred bucks? And then ⁓ 125 bucks, if it's in between there and then the acquirer drops, that usually means the market is anticipating it going through. That's interesting. I have no idea. That's good. Good TD right there. That's, you know, like I started in 2021 with the market and it's just hyper fixated on GameStop. So I haven't, ⁓ seen too much about like other acquisitions and how they play out. Here's what I do know about GameStop is the price is fucking fake. Um, we react to how it needs to react, not necessarily news by any means. Um, and they do like to shit on our hype dates. So that's why I haven't been doing any, there's, know, outside of it. So Oh, one Oh nine in 2025 early. And then it was, didn't happen because they killed our president, Jimmy Carter. They fucking did that bro. That shit was real. This is wild. That is wild. That was such a high date. And then the president died. ⁓ there's any 10 that I believe, guess it'll be that. Yeah. He lost it. Yeah. So we got another one Biden better lay low. Like I think he'd probably the next target. All right. Sorry. FBI. was just fucking around. ⁓ on his, on his eBay's real quick, the, the sign that sold, did you see that the guy who bought it is trying to create, you go skydiving, like you got in touch with some skydivers or something. And he's trying to make it to where you can go skydiving with the GameStop sign. Like as a, as like a service, like you can go. Yeah. Yeah. Like you can pay money to go skydiving and get yourself a photo with you in the air with a GameStop sign. I mean, I'm, I'm embarrassed at how many people will probably do that. Like, if it works and the, the, you know, the skydiver company allows it to happen. Hey, maybe I'm not make a trip. Yeah, there's a we're different. We're different, bro. Like, you know, I'm trying to find my tweet about yesterday. Like my wife looks through my camera roll. No girls, just hundreds of pictures of a dude in a red headband in the sea of a video game store. Somehow, the eBay acquisition is you're you're trying. You're selling Ron Cohen and his board and you're selling us. That's it. Yeah. Who, how many other companies have a fair old fan base? None. None like us. None. There's no. You Apple, you got Tesla, but I don't even think they compare. Not retail shareholders like us. Not much as. It's not for the stock at least. It's just for the company, you know, or the product. We're for the product and the stock. We're yeah, I don't know if that's a good thing though. I think he's trying to have us lay low, man. No, he's not. He's quoting us and shit. I'm joking, but ⁓ these motherfuckers are coming up with some wild shit, man. I dropped the retarded on like so many people over the last couple of days, just wild tinfoil angry motherfuckers saying like just dumb shit that they don't even like believe. the first time I responded to somebody that I shouldn't even bother talking to. I just wanted to respond fondly with something because they were talking about the compensation package and the hundred billion. Yeah. Come on, read the filing, man. Like if you understand what it says, if you literally read it, you will understand that it can't happen that way. It's not possible. You can't just walk away after it reaches one hundred billion dollars or after the merger. There are steps and stages. yeah. Yeah, yeah. I know what you're talking about. He's putting his own fucking money into, the way, like all these people are talking about like, ⁓ you know, he's getting some crazy bonus package off of this. Like right now, if you were to do it, if he got to tranche 10 magically, he'd make where we got around 21.93. So he'd make a dollar 40 per share. He's not up here doing all this shit to make a dollar 40 a share and then bounce. Like that's fucking dumb. That's like, I don't even make no sense. Anyways, yeah, you're right. You see your part of Yeah. Yeah. You think he's in power building? He's not going anywhere. He's I mean, do you do you think empire building is a good thing? Like, what do mean by empire building? Do you think he I mean, he's trying to become the Amazon of collectibles, but the way Michael Burry was positioning was more empire building. It was the more Warren Buffett in our building. I don't think he's in power building. I think he's really focused on e-commerce. But if you talk to like some skeptics, that's kind of where their head is, is that he's empire building. He's trying to build himself a scaffolding according to them. But if you actually look at his actions, he's not building a scaffolding. If he was taking the burry steps, I think that would be building like himself a safe ⁓ scaffolding, a safe golden parachute. He's not building any golden parachutes. Yeah, he's cut his parachute. He's in it. He's either going to hit the ground or he's going to start flying. It's one or the other. And he's taking it with it. If you're in this, you're either going to hit the ground or you're going to fly. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. ⁓ OK, so let's let's take a quick break here and we'll come back and we'll do the fuck. to be the fucked up weak. I'm going to try. Let's see if this works here. I think I have a cute up guys. Let's try to watch. All right, I think if they kick me off for doing this, sorry, but it's on their own platform. Let's see, share this tab instead. And then tell me I now that was was hell a lot of that. me turn that down a little bit. There's an infamous question at this point. How are you going to pay for out there? Can you all hear you repeatedly have said half cash, half stock, which is a great meme. But how you going to pay for the business? Everything now, by the way, everything is half cash, half stock. I saw that. I saw these memes on like, was like a hooker and how are you going to get paid half cash? was like, amazing. Incredible. but no, what's funny is that the, the media was, did not, did not understand, ⁓ the transaction and, ⁓ I don't know, maybe they, they spent, ⁓ too much time in college or something like that. But basically. If you look at what we're proposing, so we have $9 billion of cash in our balance sheet. ⁓ We have a commitment from our bankers for 20 billion of financing and ⁓ we offered the rest in stock. so if you look at, know, essentially they're taking half off the table at $125 a share, which is a 46 premium to when GameStop started buying and the other half they're rolling into equity in a new business or a combination between GameStop and eBay that would be run by me. And so if it was all stock, would own, GameStop shareholders would own 20 % of the business. eBay would own 80 % of their earnings of that business, but they're cashing out essentially what we're proposing is half ⁓ and the other half they're rolling. So they would be owning roughly around 40%. And then obviously everyone's saying, well, there's going to be a lot of dilution and yeah, there is dilution, but the dilution is accretive to both. GameStop and eBay shareholders because we're going to be doubling the earnings power of the business. eBay's business and GameStop's business is going to continue growing. So ⁓ it's EPS and creative to both GameStop and eBay shareholders and eBay shareholders continue to own the majority of a business that their earnings are coming from eBay, except it's run by someone, frankly, that gives a shit. Like that's the big difference is. I give a shit and I'm gonna do whatever it's gonna take. So we're proposing 50-50. If ⁓ I was an eBay shareholder, I would wanna roll all of the equity over, but ⁓ we'll see what happens. We'll see what happens. You started selling some stuff on eBay, almost like doing a little- I just wanted to put the details of the deal out there. in case anyone was missing it. interesting stuff and I think that's kind of where his head is when it comes to the change the financial markets kind of thing. It's kind of a, and you know, there's more to come probably. So we'll see. said that a lot. Got a good meme out of that too. Well, I mean, if this deal goes through, does this not open up the door for other companies to do similar things that could change the capital market? If these other companies decide to, you know, become owners rather than employees. And just kind of like bully the board out. by going directly to the investors. And you know, we didn't talk about next steps, I meant to have that, you know, eBay has their shareholder meeting on the 17th of June. So they have a proposition for on that, that will reduce the threshold to call a special meeting down to 10%, I think is currently at 20%. So in that situation, It'd be much easier for Ryan Cohen to, to maybe get a special meeting called. He can maybe do it by swooping in and grabbing his own 5 % and then combined, know, you think you go. think it's possible he already has. Uh, well, I don't, I think, I think we might have to, well, I think anything at this point, we might have to see a filing just because him and GameStop are a party. Like they are very aware of what's going on with each other. So. I think we voted for that, right? We voted to allow him to invest alongside GameStop. Yeah. So I think anything he gets now, if he were to buy any on his own or with RC Ventures, and maybe even like if PSA or, or Nat got involved, I feel like any of that would trigger like an immediate filing that they bought just because it's all kind of their party. I don't know. That's my thought on it at least. ⁓ So then that means that RC would have to go in at this price 114 if that was the case. I could be wrong though. ⁓ It just seems, I know Michael Berry was super afraid to even talk to Kitty or RC for that reason alone back in 2020. So, all right. Let's see. fucked up week. It was bad, man. Fuck that was bad. Yeah. Yeah. So we were down top to bottom, open to close 11.94 % last week. Just fucking, you know, it's how they do us too. it's like, you fucking I'll still never learn. But it was OPEX week, by the way, too. That's the other thing is I let Personally, I bought some calls. played, I swung some calls. I was playing the tin foil that no one should, you shouldn't play, but I was, was really kind of thinking this was going to be the weekend that shit popped off with Kitty and everything else. Not this one, the one before. ⁓ and that was the sign cause the the poop tweets came out and fucking we ate shit. So, you know, it was, it was, it was call pressure, call selling pressure. was a lot of call selling. a lot of bloody wankers. ⁓ know, GameStop is heavily owned by retail. We've talked about it a few times. That's one way for sure that we can impact the price of GameStop is buying calls or selling calls. So ⁓ I also don't think that there is a coincidence that we weren't able to get past 25 pretty much as soon as everyone got four more shares, know, times four on their shares. It came a lot easier. people get over that hundred and anyways, whatever, whatever, whatever. I'll move off my, my call selling soap box. So let's see Monday down 4.57%, 17.9 million volumes. Spy was flat. We were completely disconnected from spy last week. ⁓ just fucking straight down the whole time. So algorithmic selling no chance to even play calls, which was at least good. I didn't mean I didn't try to I think one day, I think it was Friday. was like, I'm going to make this money back. I did it. I did not. Yeah. Down 3.4 5 % on Tuesday. Tuesday was the only run I marked it off here was the only spot where there was any decent movement was from open Tuesday. We caught a bit of three and a half percent trying to find anywhere where you might've been able to maybe make a play. By, by that I'm talking calls. And, uh, that was it. And even then like, not worth it, not worth that three and a half percent. You'd have to go at the money and sell quick as shit. Um, so yeah, those types of weeks. Remember the poop tweet everyone. definitely. like a, it's like a battle charge. Like remember the Alamo, but remember the poop tweet. That's, that's where we are with that. Um, Wednesday down one and at 1.3%, 7.3 million volume started falling off towards the which is nice. ⁓ Thursday down 2%, 5.6 million and then fucking Friday was flat. Yeah, that's about right. Right. Yeah. Started off with a nice candle today too. Yeah. Fucking terrible. ⁓ See, I did, I did, I'm working on an indicator. I don't know. Have you heard of ⁓ the DBR indicator? I'm not a TA guy. ⁓ Two T's and A's. That's it. Well, I'm working on it. It's my own indicator. It's it's called the DIPIUS before RIPIUS indicator. I was following along with Polly in the Gandalf line. That was the only time I was interested in TA. It's all right. You're about to broaden Gandalf. Yeah, I miss Gandalf. ⁓ The DBR, DIPIUS before RIPIUS is ⁓ a pretty known chart pattern that we get. ⁓ Yeah. Yeah. It's official. It's technical. I'm working with Ultimator. He's going to make it for me, but, ⁓ what it comes down to is it's a falling wedge on the daily for the most part. ⁓ but it involves a whole lot of getting your ass kicked, catching a little bit of a bid to give you some hope and, ⁓ then smoking you again. It's, know, you gotta work in social sentiment into this, ⁓ into this, what is it? Okay. Indicator. It's an indicator that I'm working on. ⁓ you gotta work in that social sentiment. Is it real social sentiment or perceived social sentiment? Well, so I was working on it with Butt Farm as well over the weekend. ⁓ he, he, he went back into the search on when he was talking about like how loud the shillery has gotten. and I think that's a legit thing too. Like it seems like we, we seem to get the most complaining and And so I'd say perceived to answer your question is like, when I start talking about how bad it is out there, that's like a, ⁓ a trigger, a trigger. See, I'm working it out. We're going to get this right. I don't even know how to build an indicator. ⁓ but yeah, it's always the same shit. Like sell off, catch a little bit, sell off, sell off, catch a little bit, sell off. I don't know. I'm just hoping it's a shortened version. like, should find your prominent fudsters and then tie their posts in. With your chart. Yeah. Yeah. So, okay. What day, day this line went down when this fudster posted? Yeah, I'm going to, well, I mean, I need to, yeah, it's a whole, it's a whole scientific process. I'm going, going through for this, uh, DVR indicator. I'm going to charge 69 69 for this indicator. Um, nah, I'm joking people. People took me a little too serious. It's it Dibbius before Rupius. on guys. But it's true. It is, it is, it is a feeling which is like, ⁓ God, it's so bad. It's so dark. It's so shitty. You know, it's gotta be the end of it. And I kind of felt like that's where we, where we hit. was like fucking the one like 2024 right up until March and we took off or April and we took off, that was just, that was the week it hurt. Cause that's the week. ⁓ Was doing the inverse. How low can you go? And I was on the top. the highest. So I was getting like 10 40, 10 60, and then 11 60 and then 13 40. And I was like, okay, it's gotta stop going up now. Right. 16 60. I think my last bottle was like 17 80. And then, and then we got the red chair tweet. Oh yeah. And everything was great again. That was it. mean, so that earnings in March, right? Like that's this little candle right here. That was, we, got rug pulled by them moving the expectations or whatever. We were all hyped about that because it had been so bad since December and we got rug hard off of that and they just drove us to $10 and that was just brutal. Brutal. So anyways, you know, I talked about buff arms, he buff farm, he October was when he said it was loud last. October 22nd, which I thought was pretty interesting because it's pretty close to where we are right now. That was the end of an OPEC cycle. ⁓ So during one of our regular cycle times, end of October is very usually bullish for GameStop. So, then so into an OPEC week, it was the loudest, the most shit talking, sorry, OPEC settlement week. And then the White House tweeted and we ran pretty, pretty hard. It's always interesting how things like that happen. Timing wise, yeah, a little 10%. That was a little bit of a reprieve. That right here is a classic DVR guys, classic DVR. All right, so yeah, I don't know. feel like hoping, hoping, well, I was hoping Friday was the bottom, but it didn't, didn't happen. So now I'm hoping today was the bottom. That this morning? Yeah, about 10 minutes into the day. 2142. We can look at the gaps real quick. Turn DBRs off. I just like saying it at this point. So let me move this down. This gap's almost full. is, or filled. Just delete it. And that leaves me some concern honestly, that we might come back down. There we go. Sometimes it's hard. 20 on 42. So that's our new low and that gap from. January 21st is filled at 21.36. So it's a few cents. Sometimes we don't give a shit about it. But we still got 21.09 down here through to 20.69, then down to 20.65. And that's the news of RC's comp package. I think it was like right here that we gapped up to that right there. So yeah, I don't know. think that's the number that. For sure. We'll hold. don't think we did below RCS comp package. So if I were to guess, well, I'm just going to hope that this is the bottom, but we might come back down here and test this 2136 area. Are you able to see the highest wall? Like you're able to see where the biggest volume's at, at the lowest, the next lowest strike price. You're talking about options or what do mean? Sorry. It's just shares. So like you can kind of just look in the chart where the volume's heaviest. I'm trying to think of what the indicator is called. ⁓ I'm not the best short guy. I apologize if I'm sending you. I'm not either when it comes to indicators. So, but there's one of them where I can put the volume on the right side and it'll show you per price. So, know what price I'm still waiting on, but I expect those twenties to get eaten up fast if they get that low. Well, I mean, we got the gap down there at 1770 from when Kitty came back all the way here. And then if you really want to look at it, we got one down at $4 or $3 down here somewhere too. So this is all of them. That'd be the day the merger goes through and then it comes right back up. Yeah. Yeah. Close that gap and pop it right back up. I don't know. I don't think I'm just going to say no. I don't think we're going below 20. That's just me. It's going to the first hour glitch days. You know what saying? It's going to tip down real quick. Come right back up. Yeah, I'll some apologizing to do when we do. I've already been told that I'm okay. I'll be, I'll be okay if I was wrong. I don't mind that. ⁓ I thought I was wrong with Burry, but it turned out I wasn't. see. Trying to force a little falling wedge here. Cause that makes me the happiest. Anyways. I do appreciate what he said about Burry. He's been, I mean, that's an honest take. He's a, that's just too much leverage for a Burry. That's it. Volume show. Yeah. I don't know. That was a punk ass move. It was shady too. I'm just going to like, I don't know, just the timing of that shit. at the, he futted over the weekend, right into, just right into it. It was crazy. That's supposed to be main Monday, right? volume weighted average price. feel like that's it, but it's not giving me the right indicator. So maybe it's something else. Volume profile. I don't want to play around too much. I'll figure out. No, it's there and it's nice because it's actually really ⁓ useful because you can kind of see where the volume is, is where you bounce. So you can kind of tell where we trade the most. You're going to find the most volume, like gaps and just quick shots here. You're not going to see very much volume at all. That's why. like you usually retrace about equal to how you sold off. So, you know, there's a spot on the chart that, that we just kind of ripped through up or down. We'll probably rip back through that. ⁓ Unless they decide it, that's where we're going to be setting our new, you know, whatever they're going to bounce around a little bit, but you can kind of see it throughout, especially 25. There's probably so much fucking volume right here. It's just ridiculous. All right. I had something else here. Hold on. There's one more thing I had here. Listen, what was it? ⁓ post post may OPEX. ⁓ That's another good one. So that's where we are right now. Right. So I try to make a tweet about it and I think it worded it wrong. But ⁓ so May is the best month of the year when it comes to GameStop. And so far has not been the case. May has been a fucking wreck. Let's see. When did we start May? May 1st. We'll take it from the high of May. we've had decent volume. Yeah. Yeah. We had some big volume days. ⁓ but even for May history. Yeah. We're down about 20 % in May. So, ⁓ not the best May so far. but typically we fucking rock in May and especially the week following May. So for, so, I'm sorry, falling OPEX. So for one, don't trade this shit either guys. cause they seem to be like going opposite. our trend right now. So be careful. And there's so many different wild cards, but you know, all the way back to 2021 May after OPEX. This is after. the week we're in starting May 24th, we ran 55 % still in the month of May 2022. You remember that? Like, I don't know that first run in March was awesome when RSC was pumping the NFT marketplace and in the splivvy. And it was like, boom, it was awesome. Let's play in $300 calls back then. And they sold us all the way fucking back off to the double bottom. Um, but then we caught a bit 71 % in May that led to the split, like into the swivvy and the whole bed bath thing. got the rocket marked off for that, um, may 20, 23, that was leading into not for long. That whole month was good. And if you look at IEP, by the way, you'll, you'll notice IEP sold off right when game stopped. started climbing. That was right when IEP got rocked with the, um, and then burr take down article or whatever. Yeah. I think he was short for sure. Well, we know he was, but he might've been very short because that whole month was pretty gangbusters, but it was May, but we were on 14%. Even 2023, the worst year ever for GameStop. I feel like for, as a shareholder, uh, we still got a 14 % run at the end of May. OPEX settlement week in May, 2024 was the offering. we were, you know, that's the Friday it got announced and then the whole week, Kitty buying $5,000 calls. But even that Friday we caught a bid 50 % the next day. So yeah, and we're kind of like that now where OPEX was early in the month. Like the earliest possible it could have been, I think was the 15th and we had it. So there's a lot of time after OPEX in the month still. So we got basically two full weeks to try to do something with it. 2025 post OPEX, the settlement run 29%. That was the Bitcoin announcement and rug. And then just fucking blah. So yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Oh, 20%. What would that give us? I'd probably put it right back here. 2699. would be the gap above us. We touched 20. We touched like 28, 29 recently, right? In pre market. Let's see. Oh, okay. What do we hit? 29 even. 29. May 20. No, May 1st. Yeah. The fucking very beginning of the month. And then with the eBay shit and then Barry fucked us up. But that 26, 27, I think was that Friday? Was that Friday or Monday? It was a Monday. Barry. May is good. Yeah. yeah. May is starting. Yeah. I mean, the chart, I don't mind the chart. just, you don't know what's going to happen. There's so much other shit going on. Um, and there's so much below us that they could try to knock out when it comes to gaps. I don't think, I think, like I said, 20 will hold, but, um, I'm uncertain how this week's going to play out. I'm hoping we catch a Tuesday bid right now. We're at 1.25 % spy. What does market doing? Mark is down too. So, uh, we held up. It's always a great time to buy some shares. Yeah. I'm going to buy some shares right now. There you go. Yeah. It's fine. I don't know what's going on. There's some, some deal with China over the weekend and some shit with oil. So what are they doing? lost it. I moved around my shit too much. QNTM DNS. We've had 22 cents. Okay. Anyways. ⁓ man. All right. ⁓ saw some posts about XRT. Do you have anything on that? I don't, I don't know enough about XRT. Talking about it being super short. Yeah. saw a new, say something about it. I don't know. I don't know when it comes to the share creation and she had it being down to a million. So there's only a million available. ⁓ And it's at like 2,200 % short interest, but ETFs are weird like that. It's not the same. Like if, GameStop were short, cause they can just keep doing this shit forever, but it sounds like it's, it's struggling. Um, you know, we saw, we saw our bar right, bounce a little bit. We've seen, put on, let me show the fucking, um, Uh, net call premium for last week. It just was brutal, brutal. It's down over a million again today, but just no, no letting up at all. We're talking about full core press from RC. We're seeing the same thing when it comes to like suppressing the price. So we're seeing it on calls. We're seeing it on XRT, uh, with whatever the fuck's going on over there. Um, yeah. So I don't know. I, know, uh, the. chart exchange is struggling too. You're not getting any updates when it comes to the bar right there. yeah, it's all weird shit. When you start seeing the lending pool get used, when you start seeing XRT get real tight, means something's happening in the background. A lot of the time it means something's about to pop off. So, alert has a hedge loan balancing too. And ⁓ Berkshire B has a tendency to have its hedge loan balance pop. When GameStop reverses from the down to the up. So that just happened too. So you got a of, a lot of, a lot of shit happening in the background. Berkshire caught a weird bid. No, it sold off or some shit happened when, when the kiddie fake tweet happened too. So we've seen, we've seen Berkshire A go down to like a hundred years. It did the same song. GameStop spiked. Yeah. So we saw that in 2024 and then we saw some version of with Berkshire B. when Kitty tweeted this last time were, well, the hacker or whatever. So yeah. Okay. Elon. It was probably Elon. I mean, I don't know. Well, I remember people were trying to buy Berkshire for like a hundred bucks or some shit. Like it was way down there back then. Volume by price. think, uh, I think I tried to buy it. I think I was picking peppers in the garden when all the 2024 dip happened. I was like, you know, let's see if it'll go through. Yeah. And fuck it. No, it's weird how all that shit happens and it doesn't make no sense. And it's like that on purpose. So, all right, let's see what else we got. Let's see. Let's Do you, so you did some shopping this week? I know we can do a little bit of shop games up here. I don't think I have anything with a chart. Would you get some charts? Yeah. I bought, uh, I'm doing another giveaway. We're doing an, it's still GameStop Scott. We're doing shop game stuff. So GameStop's got double pro week starting today. Well, actually, yesterday through the 30th. So you get to go to the store and get you a bunch of stuff. Let's see what the double pro week was like. There was some really good deals on video games like it was like $15 game. You buy two, get one free and then the double pro was even better. Oh, shoot. They got by to get one on card Smith currency collector packs. Bought two get one free. Card Smith. That's pretty cool. Yeah. This, ⁓ Zebular. I'm trying to think, ⁓ Jake Friedle. He's, he's a big guy. Yeah. He's going to be coming on next weekend, I think. So we're going to try to do some retro gaming talk with Jake. You might not know him by name, but you'll know him by PFP always. Yeah. But you said these are all really good deals here. So that's pretty interesting. They're doing a midnight release for, I think it's the new Batman Lego game that's coming out and then it's chaos rising Pokemon that's coming out. So Thursday night, know, 9pm or whatever, my store. I'm going up there. I'm going to bring my two dance dance revolution mats, my Wii, a monitor, a speaker. And I got a bunch of cards that I'm going to bring up there. I got some stuff. I'm going to do some giveaways. So from about nine to twelve thirty, I'm to be a GameStop, my local GameStop, just hanging out, playing games, doing some giveaways. So check out your local. They might be doing something. Give them a call right up there. See what they're doing for their midnight giveaway. Because we're hard at Monk. Are you going to be streaming? I probably won't stream. I don't like to put strangers on camera. I don't like to be on camera myself. So I definitely want to put others on camera. So I'll take some pictures. I'll do some stuff. I might make some videos here and there, but I don't see me doing DDR. it again. An audio space or something. Maybe. don't know. probably wouldn't. I I might do a space. I might do a space while I'm out there. Well, I want to do a space anyways. One day we'll have to do that pretty quick here. I know, you know, you're an old school space guy. Drum up some of those other guys out there and actually get on Twitter and do a space. Yes. Spaces has kind of slowed down. I'm sad to see it because that was, I'm not a host. I'm not a good host myself, but I Diamond, Daniel, there's a, you know, there's a lot of spaces that people used to do out there. that's, kind of how I got introduced to the community because that's when I showed up here, I realized, you know, like Reddit is not, you can't connect with a person, you know what saying? But here, especially with a space, I can talk to a person. and I can hear another person, we can have a real conversation. And I hope this kind of... I might have to start hosting, you know, myself. I'll have to get over this anxiety about it. Because like I said, it was so welcoming for me as an outsider. I just showed up and they just kind of accepted me in their space as long as I wasn't an asshole or rude or whatever. Yeah. ⁓ yeah. I want to foster that for other people because I... I didn't realize how much I needed that until it happened. And then I'm grateful because now I'm in this community instead of just an observer. So it cool. Yeah. It was a big part of a lot. I think a lot of people coming over from Reddit in 2021 to 2022 to X. I know it was for me just like, you didn't really know the community that well. Yeah. Everyone's used to Reddit and like super stonking. She's so many rules over there. Like if you say something wrong, they're on your fucking ass. And it was just like a whole. mentality shifts. the spaces were really nice. You don't like me here. You just don't hang out with me. That's fine. Yeah. Yeah. But you can't just silence me. Yeah. Yeah. I know. Yeah. That's you're right. Fucking yes. You got to be yourself. So get rid of me. Whatever. But don't stop me talking. No. And that's kind of how it was. You got pushed down pretty quick over there. So Yeah. The spaces were cool. A lot of fun. I remember when that Corey account, everyone thought that was like our actually RC. That was back when the 10 around that was fun, but now it's just silly to me. But I guess whatever he did get off, he did get off a soft tweet. It seems to have helped them out. Yeah. Broken, yeah, you're right. It is broken clock, right? I feel like those are different stocks either that, or maybe RC saw it. Cause he does peruse Twitter every hour or an hour a day. Yeah. Let's see what else I got for Shop Game Stop. So I have it up on the screen here. Double Pro Week $10, save $10 when you buy two new games. Save 10 % on select digital games. You get buy two get one currency. Series five, collector's box. know there's some new there. That one is good. That's where the DFE cards are too I think. And a flip mode has a bunch of them. Polly, you're watching this, bro. That's set up for you right there, I don't even know if they have those though. Like know they have the big boxes. If that's in reference to those, great. But if it's those little boxes, I haven't seen those in forever. I don't know if I've looked for them. I see currency boxes in the like display case at my GameStop. The large ones or those? I don't remember now. I just know that I see them. And I'm like, I'm not buying those. I'm not, I bought those at first, but I always felt like let down after I bought them. ⁓ At least I have some fun when I bought the Pokemon. I think they look cool and shit. That's how I showed up. I showed up to Daniel and Diamond ripping ⁓ currency cards. I used to think they worked for currency card. don't know if I told you that. was like, dude, these guys are on these cards, man. They must be working for them. It's that shop GameStop live. That was when I first met him. was like, no, I don't know if I could trust these guys yet. If they're just selling me cards. Yeah. Then I started doing Pokemon and then I think I got them hooked on Pokemon too. Yeah, that's cool. Pokemon is awesome. I love Pokemon. I just need to get my I need to I need a kid involved. So it's like, I mean, whatever, I can be an adult there, but I would like. Hey, man, I don't even have kids, I just like just giving children cards all the time. It's just something I wish I had when I was a kid, though. So that's why I do it. I didn't have that kind of Yeah. got shame for like, I don't know, I'm looking for something for me and my youngest to really get into. I mean, I go to K-pop concerts with my middle daughter. That's like our thing. Yeah. Me and my oldest. You wear like, get you some of glow shoes. You know what saying? They got like the light up shoes. I've been to four K-pop concerts in like the last three years. I'm like a pro at this point. It was crazy. But that was like, he's been to four cause they're all talking about how many concerts they've been to and shit. Um, it was kind of funny. All right. Sure. This instead game stop is that 21 85 just fucking stalling out a good OPEC settlement week would be a Tuesday fucking ripper. So that'd be tomorrow. T plus Tuesday. It used to be like T plus two. That was the thing. um, you know, T2 anymore? I thought it was T1 now. was gonna say a lot changed. Um, but. There, there is some differences when it comes to different types of, ⁓ settlement versus like market makers versus like, I don't So it's a whole thing, but yeah, it could be T1. But the truth is they don't give a fuck about the T's like, ⁓ it'll be, it'll be whatever it'll be, whatever they want it to be. It's like kind of in a roundabout if it's going to happen, you know, it'll be roundabout, but you're not going to be able to time that shit perfectly. I got a question for you. Maybe you can answer it. Maybe you have more information. The SEC and the no longer needing to meet whatever the you had to have X amount of money. $25,000. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever that was. Is that true? Is that actually Robin's are going live? They're going live on June 2nd, I think is what I saw. OK, so it's not it's not started yet. OK, it's crazy fast, though, because that law just passed like last month or some shit. Like so, so I don't, I don't try. So I hold my shares in fidelity and I don't like, don't want to. Yeah. Yeah. It's the, so you get three a week or you get four, but if you get a fourth, you're in trouble with your brokerage. But if you, if you want to be on margin to where you can like use your money right away and shit, you gotta, only get three day trades a week. otherwise you gotta wait for your cash to settle every single time. So, you know, Like I was saying, like I use Robinhood for dumb shit. it's kind of hard to, I'm not really trying to put $25,000 in my Robinhood account to make stupid YOLOs on GameStop. So this is going to be nice. think it's only like, I think it's 2000 now. There's still a dollar amount attached to it, but it's going to be, it's way easier to hit than 25,000. Yeah. Cause I'm a great margin. And the only thing I use Robinhood for is, you know, YOLOs. Exactly. Exactly. Like the shit I can't, I don't want to tell my wife about, right? that's what Robinhood's for. ⁓ So yeah, it'll be nice because there's a lot of trades that are made personally where you swing a trade because you don't want to hit, you don't want to get the day trade. like just getting the day trade plays a role into a trade and it really shouldn't. And it's like a handicap against like retail big time. It's just, it's just one more element. Like people are always just going to cause more degeneracy. I think it's going to make it where people make smarter trades that aren't based on the stupid arbitrary fucking overnight. Whatever, you know, um, yeah, that's, think it is going to be better for retail for sure. It's a step in the right direction. Yeah. want to margin out 25 K. You don't have to, you don't have to take money. It's also just like, you know, like, um, So like if you make a trade and you win that trade, like you close out that money is available right away. Like I can send that and this is usually my plan is I send it to the bank as quick as possible. But you can't, if you're not on margin, you can't trade that money till the next day. So like, so like, so it's not like you're borrowing money. You know, it's more just about like being able to use your money without waiting the day of settlement too. That's another benefit of it. So the life of a not baller retail trader right there. I'm taking into account fucking dumb shit. Like, are we going to run overnight? Because more likely you're not right. But is it like worth the trade? And you got to think about, you know, all kinds of shit. Theta, Theta is important. If you're going to swing some shit. Like definitely look at that, y'all. So all right. Let's see. What else do I got? What else do I got? Shop GameStop we did. I didn't I didn't do any shopping. I'm going to go. I need a camera. So you took a nice picture at the store, though. Yeah, I stock my GameStop. It's a, it's a thing on Saturdays. I don't think they know about it yet though. Let's see. I want to reiterate on the end of shop GameStop though. Really check out your store, see what they're doing. If you can, you know, go to your store and they're doing something and you get some pictures, put them up, send them to GameStop, DM them directly to GameStop. Let them know that you're there and that there's people there so that they can post it. That's good. GameStop exclusive next week, think. The Ho-Oh. So yeah, that last one with Gengar is doing great. So I'm not, I'm not sure how this one will do, but if last one was any indication. I guess we're getting a new pack. Is it a new set drop on Friday too? Is that right? Yeah. Yeah. That's a new set. That might be it. ⁓ that might be what he referenced. He's referenced and I haven't looked at what the promo is. Yeah. I think that's it. I think that's what they're doing. That's nice. ⁓ There she is. she is. Look at her. You got a nice little dumpster, little trash can out there. You gotta keep it clean. You gotta keep it clean. Yeah, I try to... I drove by and took one too, but I didn't want it to be too weird. Look at that on a power packs. See what else we got. This is my post-May OPEX. That's about it. Yeah. It's fucking Twitter was terrible last week too, man. It was just, just fucking arguing and you, you like my Pluto Dinklage? Yeah. I mean, that's like art, bro. That's beautiful. think last week was, ⁓ you had the quote unquote hack. You had all the rampage of interviews. ⁓ there's a lot to. There's a lot to digest. then the dumping of the market, was, ⁓ or the dumping of the stock. It was a, it was a hard week, but I feel like the worst it is is like the better Twitter is to me. Anyways, I have a better time. The lower the price of the stock is. ⁓ man. I'm so sentiment like reliant for my vibe. I hate it. I fucking hate it when the vibe is terrible out there, but like, I don't know. I'm, I'm. turning a not give a fuck leaf or corner or whatever, like as we go. We've talked about it before, but like, so I'm kind of just going to vibe down. So I was just fucking arguing, you know, that was plude, but I just don't give a shit anymore. Honestly, like I'm going to meet your energy for sure, because a lot of people like to reply in fucking smart ass, have truth, like bullshit, like tones. And it's like, oh, I got to be polite back. That's not a fuck that shit. Like, you don't have to be polite. You just have to ignore it. You know, that's what I like to see it because it's like it increases my conviction is. Yeah. For me, the whole the biggest part of this play for me is you. Not not just you, but you. Me? Oh, strawberry. Daniel. Diamond, Fernand, Polly, you know, everybody. Drunk on Dreams, New Snake, everybody that we communicate with on like a daily basis at this point. That is this whole play for me. And watching outside sentiment, like there's different types of GME investors. I think Swami said this at one point. You know, there's the diehard GME elites. There's the, I'm not even going say it, but there's the bath and The butterfly. There's the movies in GME. There's so many different variations of GME. So to see like ours remain solid, you know what I'm saying? That's the, don't care if we're considered an elite. We believe in the one thing and our conviction is solid and it cannot be thrown away. Look at that face. You know what I'm saying? It's great. It's right there. And we all believe in the same thing, like corporate justice. That's really about shit. We want companies to not be gutted and profits to be shared. It's very simple. as long as that conviction holds, seeing the outside perspectives, the other ⁓ variant GME people freak out. I feel pretty good about because we're good. The heart is still pumping. Even though the limbs are flailing. That's good. That's good. I'm motivated now, bro. That's to to you had on the show. I'm going to pull them out in editing. Look at that smile, bro. Hey, I like that dude a lot. He's cool. I get R.C. I want to hang out with him. Just happy life's good for that guy. I don't think it'd be fun to hang out with them. Now I do. I think it'd just be business at this point. That's based on how he's carrying himself. He's just like, I'd appreciate talking to you about nonsense, but also there's money to be made. So why are we talking about this? Let's talk about money. I mean, it depends on the situation. Like I want to post up with RC. Let's go to, let's hang out somewhere. with 3am Trump 2028. no. That's probably the fun Ron Cohen. That's the troll. Yeah. He's just trolling. That's him sitting next to his buddy going, watch what happens here. And then just fucking chaos. Yeah. You know, he's chill though. RC has a little fun. If anything in these interviews has proven he's He's still about the trade. He's chill about what people are saying about him and he's just chill overall. Speaking of RC, I know you're listening. ⁓ You can come on any time. You're welcome. know it's literally, think every person that has any form of like content medium has asked him since he's been doing these interviews. ⁓ But I tweeted at him. tried to get him to come to a space to talk about Pokemon. Did he come? No, of course. I don't like it. It's fucking funny. What's up, Ark? I fucking don't even know. What's up, Hakuna? Good to see you, bro. You guys got to talk about bonds and carry trade. I don't know none of that shit, especially the carry trade stuff. I'll talk about bonds and carry trades for a little bit. What you got? Well. No, how do I know? I have no clue. thought you were going to rip, bro. I was ready. My notepad out. I guess you're going to try this name. I got DCA and by by shares. Well, what kind of name is this? Arc deuce. ⁓ God, I'm not even I'm done. That was it. What's the mark? I'll say hi that way. How weak. was crazy. All right. ⁓ yeah, thanks for coming out guys. Let's see. Do I got anything else? Last week's episode was awesome. We almost got to a thousand on the live. So that's cool. I appreciate that support. I'm trying to get- for making me feel like poop. ⁓ doing all right bro. shows up for Greg or for Robbie. There's 26 people in here right now. What's up y'all? Pretty good. That's pretty good. ⁓ Yeah, we did pretty good last week and a big part of it was that clip from, from Bartok about the power pack money, but that was cool. So yeah, so I'm posting the show. I'm posting the show on X in video form now under, I'm trying to get organized with this. So this is my attempt to explain how, so hopefully the show should come out on the video podcast feeds next week, like normal. So you should be able to find this episode. You won't hear about it until you're hearing about it, but you should be able to find this episode on Spotify, Apple and YouTube podcasts in video format. ⁓ This episode in what we're doing right now will stay. I'll probably clip it down a little bit. Maybe edit the topics and add some timestamps if that helps. I timestamps definitely help. ⁓ So this will be up in video format as well. And I'd appreciate Any love, any likes, any comments? Thanks, you guys, for coming out here and commenting in the chat. We're kind of we're focusing on video now. I'm trying to make that kind of think that's the next evolution. For the show, and that tends to be on YouTube, but I'm trying to keep the RSS feed alive because we got like 79 shows now, well, 78 shows on there about to be 79. So, yeah, that's the that's the plan. ⁓ I like your evolution, Yeah, I'm trying. I'm learning as we go. Like the harder part is learning like all the software and like Adobe edition. And then I, so this last one I was, learned fucking transitions on premiere pro and I felt cool, bro. Like my first transition on that, I put the interview in there and everything is as a sense. would say graphics or some shit, but mine was just like a fucking transition. So ⁓ Yeah, we're trying. I'm trying. I'm trying to evolve ⁓ a big part of this is not ⁓ Editing if possible, so yeah, we'll see Because Riverside I could almost do all of this in one place I don't know, I don't got any notes. Stay tuned, I got a co-fi started guys. The show costs about $200, maybe more per month to put out when it comes to the feed and the software and everything involved. So I'm starting a little membership. We'll see how this goes. I'm not trying to like pump it or anything. So you won't hear me talk about it too much, but I'll share the link. if you want to support the show. You know, the product is the show. you know, you will become a booster of the echo chamber podcast show or whatever. ⁓ so yeah, keep an eye out for the link. I'll put it out there somewhere. And if, if you like the product, if you like the show and you would like to support it, there is an avenue for you. ⁓ but completely by choice. Yeah. You got to get with, ⁓ you got to go there and he's good with you. ⁓ get a build you like a progress bar towards, $200 for your donations? The goal is one right now, so $7. Okay. We'll get one subscriber to first and then... Well, when you get that one, you get two status bars, like a progress bar. So you're transparent. Yeah. No, it's all about the show. Everything will go to make the show better. I'm running into issues with hardware and the PC and so anything. Anything will go towards making this better and easier to edit and quicker to get out. So it'll be quicker into your guys' hands because all the backend shit is what's really the big problem. So yeah. And if you're in the discord, you might get a cool little fucking symbol next year name too. I'm not sure what's going to happen with that, but it'd be something fun. Maybe, maybe we talk IB into making some shares, right? That's going to cost a little bit more than. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, check out IB guys. What's your, what's your ad again, bro? ⁓ at IB 35 Woffer 5, ⁓ just on Twitter. I'm everywhere else, but not on Twitter, but not with that name. So just IB 35 Woffer 5. He makes, if you're interested, makes PSA graded GameStop shares. there's a, there's a, there's a possibility. ⁓ if you know who roaring sensei is, there may or may not be a stream. that is not sponsored that may or may not have giveaways. Share slabs. That'd be fun. Yeah. We did it once. I don't know if you knew that he did it. It's like two streams ago. I might admit I'm always at work when he does his streams. That's the problem. We gave away to, uh, two of the greatest, you know, the, the collectible slabs I make the share slab. That's sweet. I got mine right here. I'm looking at it. right next to my Pokemon that ⁓ since they, Paulie got me. Yeah. was, ⁓ I was a little nervous when, you know, so I gave them away and then I opened up, like it was costly. I didn't realize how costly it was crazy. Cause really what happened was I did the giveaway and at least 90 % of the people who wanted one were international. So already I'm in the hole massively. Because they're all international. did not think about that at all. So like the next giveaway I did, I made it US only. But that first one, I mean, I sent them everywhere. You would not believe the amount of places I sent shares. I think I hit every continent ⁓ for sure. That's cool. And then I finally opened them up for sale. put them pretty much at cost. ⁓ cause it's going to be cost plus shipping and I was just eating the shipping. I made them like 20 bucks flat and then shipping international is 20 bucks by itself. So I'm losing money on international. So the only people that weren't, ⁓ I wasn't losing money on were local, but I was losing some, you know what I'm saying? It like helped out. So I felt bad cause Polly bought his. And then I gave you yours. And I was like, well, you didn't have to tell everyone. No, no, you know what I mean? Some people know they were given away and some people were to pay. That's why I don't do them for paid anymore, man. Like I felt so guilty. Like even though I took a huge hit, like I didn't make any money, I lost money on it. But you know what it is. You know how it is. You're like, you're trying to. It's one of those things you want to keep it going for the community, but it's not free. Like I can't keep it going for free. It's in bots. Like if you want this, you have to pay. Not for yourself. mom. I got you. Everything's time. Everything's money. My wife was like, because it was like, I wasn't charging for my time. She kept saying you should charge more money because you you are not valuing your time. And I was like, I guess I don't value my time. guess. Yeah, I hear that too. Like trying to figure out like, yeah, that's all. It's all tough. Like what are you, what are you worth per hour? Right? Who knows? Who knows? I'm like a penny baby. You're fucking, uh, your, your PSA though is like a staple that and then, um, GME, but stallions, GameStop, banana. Those. love that thing, man. That's, that's on my shelf. Yeah. Yeah. Me too. In case of Moa's right there, this fucking banana. I'm looking at that too. Those are just things that have like made their way around the community. They're really cool. Uh, Vaughn she's not. Not RIP Von, but RIP Twitter Von. She was making those stickers. Yeah, yeah, I know. I see her out there. Shout out Von. Come say hi. Like one of our posts. We only see it, but we all see it. We talk about it too. We'll be like, oh, we saw Von. It's funny. But yeah, she was making those stickers and shit. Those were fun. I guess everyone kind of has their little creative thing that they're doing in the community. like. Yeah, of creative motherfuckers. Did you ever scan the QR code on the back? Of what? That GME slab I gave you. No, I didn't even know there's a barcode. You didn't check out all the fun stuff. There was a guy, his name is Moon Voyager. He taught me that trick. It was really neat. All right. You ever get the chance? Give it a little quick little scan. Yeah, I'm going to tethered right here, but I'm going to go grab it and do it in a second. All right. Let's. No one has messaged. I had one person message me about it. I've given hundreds of those out. I've had one person message me about it. So only of the hundred people, only one person found the Easter egg. Yeah, you'll find we're not. We're not. it away now. It's out there. Yeah. Now, now everyone's gonna be like, hey, I found it. Yeah, I used to put at seven minutes and 41 seconds of every show. I used to put a little ticking sound and maybe every now and then I put it at an hour and 47 minutes and only one person ever mentioned it to me. Okay. I think I know what you're talking about. There used to be a sound out here all the time. ⁓ Is that what that was? Yeah, was a little... Is that the only time you had that sound? Yeah, I did it at 741 or 147. That's hilarious. I used to wonder what that was about. Honestly, no offense, Pauly, if you hear this. I used to think it was Pauly's, you've been on too long. Because it would happen, think, yes, it's a day. Because it would happen when we were doing our intro. Seven minutes in, it's usually when I'm asking Paulie how he's doing, you know? Yeah. That's what I used to think it was. I was like, oh, that's Paulie's cue for we need to move on. Yeah, that's funny. That's funny, you know. It was just it. Maybe I'll find something else to add like that, too. That's fun stuff. Only Marvin the Martian found it and asked about it. Yeah. So, okay. All right. ⁓ I think that's it. You got anything before we get out of here, bro? Not man. Shop GameStop. Like I said, check out your Thursday's midnight release. See what they got going on. Take pictures, share it. Have a good time. Go out there and give stuff away. You don't know how easy it is to give some stuff away. You think you don't have anything, but I promise you have more than most. Go out there and do something good for somebody else that'll make you feel good. Doesn't matter if that's selfish. Enjoy yourself. That's good. That's good. Shout out everyone coming to the the chat with us, drunk on dreams. Every time I see you, hear, bro, thank you. ⁓ Diaper King, you too, dude. We got a lot of the Discord folks. Silverleg, Wally, Wasper. ⁓ I saw you, Magnificent, came in and out. He's been here every time too. Check out Magnificent's channel. He's making some really cool shows. ⁓ YouTube videos about like the stock market. I saw the first one. Really cool visuals too, so. Bro's got like a perfect voice for podcasting though. So yeah, what's up, Magnificent? Magnificent? I don't know if I've ever heard of him. Really? Have you heard the name though? You know the name right? Yeah, I know who Magnif shit is. Yeah, he's got a great voice. Check out his YouTube. It's pretty good. Silver Lake, Arkane, woo! That's it. Kilbrum, well Kilbrum Man and then dude with the crazy name. New Snake, to see you bro. Thanks everyone for coming out. I appreciate it. I like these lives. I'm gonna keep doing them. Yeah, thanks for having me. Oh yeah, thank you. Thank you. All right, let's fucking go GameStop. Have a good one y'all. Let's go. WHERE IS HE?!
