To give perspective on Ohtani's impact on viewership, this was reported back in March: "Approximately 97.4% of TVs in Japan were tuned in to watch Shohei Ohtani strike out Mike Trout to end the World Baseball Classic."
@@DatBoiGloomyyeah you basically just signed a guy that has the third largest economy as his fan base he honestly could’ve been worth well over 1 billion and there were rumors he’d be signed for that much
A lot of people think it's a "dead sport" and are undercutting it in the comments, but the sport's actually growing due to rule changes. Since last year 10% more people attended games and 15% more people watched games. It's not just US, the WBC (Baseball's World Cup) was huge this year, way bigger than any previous WBC. For instance, the WBC Final between Japan vs USA was viewed by 42.4% of households in Japan. This game was at 8 AM on a Wednesday, there's clips of schools playing the game in the classroom in the middle of the schoolday This Japanese fanaticism for the sport is a large part why Ohtani is so sought after. Dodgers bought the fandom of the entirety of Japan with this signing.
While mlb does better than people realize, Shohei is special, he might legit be the most popular man in Japan lol. When I went in April he was on every third billboard and I saw a lot of Angels jerseys
Idk, there SURELY has to be a way to evade taxes without donating at least a quarter of it to the federal money printer... Like doesn't he have family in japan? Couldn't he get paid in shares like messi? Add an inflation clause? Just doesn't seem like such a sigma move ykyk
@@sbcguitarist Very true. A lot of Americas actually do this, not just rich people. Retirees aren't just moving to Florida for the alligators I'll tell you that. At least this is more morally justifiable because Japan has a similarly high tax rate, he's just moving the tax he's paying to the one he's a citizen of
I saw an article saying Japanese baseball writers living in CA were awaiting shoheis free agency decision because they would have to up and move their families to whatever city he chose
Shohei being the one that wanted his payment deferred till after the deal expires shows you how badly he wants to win, he essentially did what Tom Brady did for 20 years allowing his franchise to dominate for those said 20 years, maybe it happens with Shohei too
Shohei took that right out of the Bobby Bonilla playbook 💯 checkmate to the MLB. Also as an Angels fan, I’m less angry about us letting him walk and more that he signed with the Dodgers.
Exactly. When I first heard the headline, I figured his team was doomed, since they'd be so broke that they wouldn't be able to pay to have any other good players on their team. But deferring the payment means his team can spend basically all their money recruiting other top talent. It's actually pretty brilliant. Make your money, and be on the most winning team.
After 10 years of deferred income you pay taxes whereever you currently reside versus where you made the money. Dude basically just fleeced Cali of 70m by being a smart business man. Dude's going to settle in Florida, pay a fraction of the tax, and roll into the sunset. Only thing that you can draw from this is how much Sho wins in his pocketbook, nothing to do with the dodgers.
It really doesn't express how badly he wants to win. Baseball is the only thing he has ever cared about. Ohtani has never spent his money, he literally just goes from the hotel rooms to the stadium every day. He cooks for himself and mostly just eats like a body builder to optimize his diet. Money doesn't matter to him. Ohtani only thought of this arrangement because he wants to keep playing baseball, and many promising players have dropped out of the league due to injuries. In particular the typical career for a foreign Japanese/Korean player that makes it to the MLB is to play for a year or two and then move back to their home country getting paid massive amounts of money to play in their home league. Its so rare to succeed in the MLB that the players are respected just for even trying. So by coming up with a good deal for the Angels he has been able to secure his future in the MLB.
I love the Atrioc baseball arc. Can't wait for chat to watch next years World Series with Big A. In all seriousness though, would love to see Big A look at the World Baseball Classic. There's a great video about the expanding global marketplace of baseball, which as an American, is really awesome to see.
Yeah but unless I’m missing something about baseball rules, it would be way cheaper and better from a risk standpoint to hire a really good batter and a really good pitcher.
Would love to hear Big A talk about the economics of sports more often. There’s actually quite a large controversy surrounding Ohtani’s deferred money related to the advantage that extremely cash rich big market teams have to “strong arm” the player market.
The dust has mostly settled on that, and the main issue that the initial $700 mil reported was misleading, because of how the deferrals worked and how the money grows in time due to inflation it's closer to a $460 mil contract in present value. The two ways people were saying this would give big market teams an advantage initially is the CBT and liquid money to spend, which isn't actually happening. The CBT hit is still actually $46 mil, the value of his NPV contract split over 10 years. The extra money deferred isn't actually extra spending capital the Dodgers can throw around during these 10 years, part of the regulations mandate that they have to guarantee the money in something like Escrow accounts, so they basically can't touch it. The main controversial parts of the deal now seem to be that: 1) This is a tax avoidance strategy by Ohtani 2) He probably gave the Dodgers a discount in value. The numbers thrown around even after his injury were 500+ mil maybe even hitting 6, the actual contract being below 500 mil is a very good deal for the business and on field value of Ohtani In conclusion, the main instigator about this controversy was the reporting that it's a $700 mil deal which was misleading before the contract details were laid out. Baseball journalism hit an all time low in general this offseason, super disappointing.
As an Australian it's wild to me that McDonald's is launching an entirely new chain just for coffee when every big city or highway McDonald's in the country has a McCafe in store to provide coffee and other cafe drinks alongside whatever else you want to order there.
That isn't an Australian thing - even in the states McCafe is pretty big. They're just trying to separate and expand, which I guess is fine. They're certainly big enough to absorb any potential losses for a while.
IDK mate, this move looks to be less about competing against Starbucks, and more like it is planning to ride the trend of boba shops. There is like 10 boba shops within a 10 mile radius of me right now. Also, one of the shops is a chain and has 4 stores just in my city. All they make at these boba shops is $5 drinks, cookies, and a few small snacks/fingerfood like popcorn chicken, egg rolls and french fries. They have a drive through that always has a line, and every store of theirs is rated 4.6 out of 5 or higher.
yeah I was so confused I know McCafe is much bigger here in Aus than the rest of the world, i mean we were the creators of it and we fucking love our coffee, but like why not just expand their McCafe offerings in the US?? wtf is a CosMc's??
@@TaylorXIV Its because they tried to bring McCafes to the US but the stores failed miserably, so they just used the brand in all of their normal McDonalds stores for their coffee. This is McDonalds trying to bring McCafe to the US again but under a new brand, and its clearly working considering that their first store had super long lines of people waiting to try it.
I’ve always like Buc-ee’s marketing. They used to (they still may) have a sign on I-10 in Florida that advertised a store like 800 miles away (I think for in Texas).
Atrioc is far from right thinking people are not talking about Ohtani deferring his contract. The mlb community is on top of it so much with a lot of people saying the MLB shouldn't have no cap on deferring money as they would only let big market teams do this making a pretty unfair advantage. Others argue its good for baseball.
How does it work, does the 60mil count towards Angel's salary cap in 10 years even if Ohtani has retired? If it didn't count that seems kind of crazy, why not lock every star into this type of deal. If it counts to their salary cap, the I think this is a totally valid way to run a baseball team, but its incredibly risky as they'd be basically guaranteeing that their team will suck in 10 years. However if you factor in inflation, it probably isn't that bad if the salary cap is significantly higher in 10 years.
What’s funny is that way more people (at least that I’ve seen) are more upset about how the dodgers will be able to stack their roster bc of it than how much taxes will be avoided
A youtube channel known as Baseball Doesn't Exist also made a great video on why he was worth that much money before even playing. Highly suggest that watch too
Let’s be honest, Baseball is the nerdy sport out of the major sports. The most famous “underdog story” (Moneyball) is about a nerd who used numbers and advanced analytics to build one of the best teams in baseball
I don't really care much for baseball, as blasphemous as that is living in St. Louis, but watching Ohtani's meteoric rise to fame from the sidelines has been absolutely fascinating. Still won't make me watch baseball but I have nothing but admiration and respect for the dude.
The baseball player getting paid starting 10 years from now is losing quite a lot if you assume he was going to invest the money. If half is taxed so he's getting $35m a year, investing annually, going for a relatively safe 7% rate, he's sitting at $550m after tax but now he's got his entire $550m upfront when he would only just start to earn his 68m a year normally (which will still be taxed just at a lower rate) So now he makes 7% on 550m which is 38.5m minimum, indefinitely, versus 68m/year that he now has to begin investing. If you calculate both options (money up front first vs starting 10 years from now) and check the amount of money at the end of 20 years (total length of second contract) you have $1.57B from the first option, getting 70m for the first 10 years and having it compound at 7% per year for 20years total VS The second option assuming you get to keep 70m instead of 35m (paying literally NO tax which is almost impossible) but you dont get the first 10 years of investment opportunity, so investing for the final 10 years he would end up with $1105m or just over $1.1B So basically by letting them keep 97% of his pay for 10 years, his opportunity cost is about $465m, which is basically the entire difference between his pay and the other elite contracts in this video. TLDR: he's losing ~500million worth of potential compounding profits because he's letting them keep his money an extra 10 years. The team was probably willing to pay a much higher contract then if he accepted payment today because they can run time-value of money calculations and see how much its actually worth today. Theres a chance the market doesn't hold 7% (not super unlikely considering you can get government bonds not too far off that), but theres also a chance he dies in the next 10-20years anyway so both sides have unlikely scenarios.
I worked at Red Lobster in the kitchen up until a month ago and endless shrimp always was terrible for both the front of house and back of house staff, just so ass, funny to see you touch on it tho
Was a server at red lobster and left because of endless shrimp. Abusive customers, low pay and miserable workloads. I felt terrible for the back end…you guys worked so hard and your pay never came close to reflecting the effort you guys put into churning out all of that food. Hope you’re doing better now
If corporations can afford to drop 700M on a single baseball player for their team, they should be able to afford to pay their fair share in taxes and stop making taxpayers build their stadiums for them. This is absolutely gross and its sad how many people in the comments are hyped about it...
As someone who hates baseball I gotta say that contract is crazy. It seems to me that despite having a very low youth fan base in America compared it to other sports, it’s growing pretty huge in other countries which makes up for the revenue loss from social media attention etc.
Kinda insane watching Atrioc in his usual cheerful and happy tone explain to me in detail how the world is fucked and is going downhill every turn, but alas, a Baseball player and McD's made money so its a win for me
Its actually really appropriate salaries for the job. Buc-ees has like 100 gas pumps and 1,000 parking spots because it is so popular. Every employee ends up doing a lot of work every day. In Texas there are 5 massive cities, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, and El Paso (border crossing town to mexico). Texas is so big, that it takes on average 4 hours to drive from one of these cities to any of the other cities, and that is not considering traffic. There is almost nothing in between these cities except farmland. So its pretty important to fill up your car before traveling to another major city. In america there are stretches of road that can go for 160 miles in between gas stations, and I'm not just talking about gas stations alongside the road. If you run out of gas in the middle of one of those highways the nearest gas station would be like 60 miles away in the wrong direction.
I look forward to this every week. Marketing Monday and Tosh Show are my most favorite anticipated every week in all forms of media/entertainment. Thank you Atrioc.
"EUROPE WHY SO QUIET?" ... are you a doctor? Then you are fully unaffected by this fact, nor ever able to benefit from it. If you think its a zinger that our doctors dont make as much, then you reaching as far as you possibly could to find something to finaly get back at us. You want a counter point? If you become a doctor in america, you still have SO MUCH student debt that you break even barely when you are in your mid 40s. 'Murica.
Uh Atrioc I worked at Buc-ee’s, they pay a lot because they expect a lot. Open 365 days a year. I live in Daytona, they stayed open during the whole hurricane and I was scheduled to work so I had to drive through the hurricane to work for 8 hours and then drive back. No streetlights at all haha. Also they will fire you instantly. Use your phone at any point during your shift, fired, eat a chicken tender fired and prosecuted and trespassed. Go outside while on the clock and your not maintenance fired, can only go to the bathroom with permission 1 employee at a time so you better hope someone didn’t ask before you. Smoke in the parking lot off the clock, fired, don’t have a receipt well you probably stole it fired. Helping customers with car problems better not be in uniform or your fired. Also Truckers are banned from Buc-ee’s better be in a sedan or SUV. Not even RV’s can go there. Also better not be looking like a zoomer because they will follow you through the whole store because you don’t look Christian enough and might steal. You white and look Christian hey no problem you got blue hair someone’s following you. Buc-ee’s instills fear into the employees and that’s why they don’t care if you’re fired because of you ain’t afraid they don’t want you. Oh forgot 7 minute lunch breaks can I get an Amen. Getting your food and standing in line counts toward your lunchtime too so better be quick. You go to the bathroom at the end of your break well they might fire you for stealing time. It’s a slave ship, all day long I hear did you hear X got fired or hey better watch out they’ll fire you. Everybody only talks about who got fired or being fired. I worked there a year and saw at least 30+ people fired for petty stuff. Think twice before you work there and if you do don’t make friends there. The chicken tender thing wasn’t a joke. Guy ate a tender, pull him in office confront him send him back to work. Police arrive they take him out in cuffs and trespass him. Lmao what a great place to work. Oh also their corporate phone number just tells you to go to the website. You can’t call and talk to anyone. Honestly, a lot of us Floridians don’t know how Buc-ee’s is in Florida because they are breaking so many labor laws. Like the employees are that afraid that they don’t even report abuse of workers.
Buccees founder lives/ started buccees like half an hour south of me. Painted his house once like a decade ago. Nice guy, I think his son was a nutcase though. I'm both surprised and not surprised buccees is as big as it is now. I honestly don't like going much anymore besides to use the bathroom on road trips. They got too popular and too big and its just not the same. Their pay has always been the same though, was always hard to get a job there.
One thing to note about Buc-ees. They work their employees asses off. It's damn good money but they will expect 100% the whole time. This is a little anecdotal, but a college friend of mine was threatened to be fired if he left his shift to run to his car and grab his inhaler for his asthma attack. He had to sneak out when his boss was busy.
It is pretty crazy that Ronaldo's contract is 3x Ohtani's in yearly value. And if you look at the amount per game it's over 16x larger. All while Ronaldo nears the end of his career.
Yeah, but the initial deal would have had him make all that same money by 2033, without the need for inflation and his potential death/apocalypse to cut into his profits.
I don't know how truckers would love Bucee's. Bucee's doesn't allow, semis on their lots. They don't want to slow entrance or exit at the pump and don't want to pay for constant resurfacing. -A Trucker
insane to me that mcdonalds is taking market shares from other fast food companies because last time i went to mcdonalds and got a 10 piece nuggets meal it was $13, but you can get a $5 from Wendys with a burger, fries, nuggets, and a drink. McDonalds is SO fucking expensive compared to wendys and burger king
So fun fact about buc-ees, they announced that they are going to have a new buc-ees in my town in ohio, and it is going to be one of, if not THE largest in the nation being a little less than half the size of a walmart supercenter.
Regarding the statements that Google is in trouble because their AI chat bot isn't up and running is a pretty underdeveloped viewpoint. A lot of Americans (including government bodies) were afraid of advertising programs, which were powered by AI, less than 5 years ago. Zoomers use the chat bots more than any other demographic, mainly to shortcut school assignments. But the only reason that hurts Google search, is that they charge businesses for advertising on a "customers attracted to your site" basis. And tons of sites that pay for Google advertising, and getting higher search priorities, they're the same sites that have 49 single-paragraph blurbs about a common search topic that teases the answer to the original question. And each of these blurbs is separated by an ad from another company, paying that site for ad views. TLDR: Google isn't hurting because of ai bots. Companies that pay Google to prioritize them as search results are.

Who's going to tell Othani what his own proposal cost him? Make a DCF of that and show how much he misses out on by postponing the payments to 10 years from now... That money could be simmering in an index fund for 10 years. He should get a better agent.
TH-cam keeps my algo crazy cause of every different "genre" I click on, but it doesn't fail to give me every single banger Big A is putting out right when their released. Letsgooo
This might sound stupid but I just need confirmation. Can his contract be voided if his injury goes on for longer or God forbid makes him permanently unplayable?
Buc-ee’s are everywhere, there some in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, pretty much everywhere in the south. Also living in Texas with 150k is much better than living in California with 150k 😂

A youtube channel known as Baseball Doesn't Exist also made a great video on why he was worth that much money before even playing. Highly suggest that watch too
Hurts my soul as an Angels fan I would say we’re gonna get cursed but the ownership is all the curse we need
thank you for giving us the goat...
Let’s be honest, Baseball is the nerdy sport out of the major sports. The most famous “underdog story” (Moneyball) is about a nerd who used numbers and advanced analytics to build one of the best teams in baseball
What an amazing Marketing Monday. The production quality has gone up so high and I'm loving the graphics
The bar is low when China "at least didn't raid their offices". This change of tone is good, but I'm skeptical lol. I hope things actually get better.
As a native Texan, I audibly cheered when I saw the buc-ees segment.
I don't really care much for baseball, as blasphemous as that is living in St. Louis, but watching Ohtani's meteoric rise to fame from the sidelines has been absolutely fascinating. Still won't make me watch baseball but I have nothing but admiration and respect for the dude.
Great video. Every segment flowed into another so smoothly.
The baseball player getting paid starting 10 years from now is losing quite a lot if you assume he was going to invest the money.
If half is taxed so he's getting $35m a year, investing annually, going for a relatively safe 7% rate, he's sitting at $550m after tax but now he's got his entire $550m upfront when he would only just start to earn his 68m a year normally (which will still be taxed just at a lower rate)
So now he makes 7% on 550m which is 38.5m minimum, indefinitely, versus 68m/year that he now has to begin investing.
If you calculate both options (money up front first vs starting 10 years from now) and check the amount of money at the end of 20 years (total length of second contract) you have $1.57B from the first option, getting 70m for the first 10 years and having it compound at 7% per year for 20years total
VS
The second option assuming you get to keep 70m instead of 35m (paying literally NO tax which is almost impossible) but you dont get the first 10 years of investment opportunity, so investing for the final 10 years he would end up with $1105m or just over $1.1B
So basically by letting them keep 97% of his pay for 10 years, his opportunity cost is about $465m, which is basically the entire difference between his pay and the other elite contracts in this video.
TLDR: he's losing ~500million worth of potential compounding profits because he's letting them keep his money an extra 10 years.
The team was probably willing to pay a much higher contract then if he accepted payment today because they can run time-value of money calculations and see how much its actually worth today.
Theres a chance the market doesn't hold 7% (not super unlikely considering you can get government bonds not too far off that), but theres also a chance he dies in the next 10-20years anyway so both sides have unlikely scenarios.
Messi’s current contract exceeds this I’m pretty sure it was around a billion for the whole of the MLS to sign him to Miami
I worked at Red Lobster in the kitchen up until a month ago and endless shrimp always was terrible for both the front of house and back of house staff, just so ass, funny to see you touch on it tho
Was a server at red lobster and left because of endless shrimp. Abusive customers, low pay and miserable workloads. I felt terrible for the back end…you guys worked so hard and your pay never came close to reflecting the effort you guys put into churning out all of that food. Hope you’re doing better now
If corporations can afford to drop 700M on a single baseball player for their team, they should be able to afford to pay their fair share in taxes and stop making taxpayers build their stadiums for them.
This is absolutely gross and its sad how many people in the comments are hyped about it...
Craziest thing about this video is not the Ohtani contract. It is how Taylor Swift is literally reviving economies.
Meanwhile in Australia people up in arms about a 9 year $10M AUD contract being too high (10 years ago)
As someone who hates baseball I gotta say that contract is crazy. It seems to me that despite having a very low youth fan base in America compared it to other sports, it’s growing pretty huge in other countries which makes up for the revenue loss from social media attention etc.
MLB was the most viewed sport in the country for the past like ten years. You think youths are the ones buying tickets and merch? lol
@@verde7595 youth is the future consumers
Kinda insane watching Atrioc in his usual cheerful and happy tone explain to me in detail how the world is fucked and is going downhill every turn, but alas, a Baseball player and McD's made money so its a win for me
As someone studying medicine in Sweden the car wash manager getting paid more is hilarious
Its actually really appropriate salaries for the job. Buc-ees has like 100 gas pumps and 1,000 parking spots because it is so popular. Every employee ends up doing a lot of work every day. In Texas there are 5 massive cities, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, and El Paso (border crossing town to mexico). Texas is so big, that it takes on average 4 hours to drive from one of these cities to any of the other cities, and that is not considering traffic. There is almost nothing in between these cities except farmland. So its pretty important to fill up your car before traveling to another major city. In america there are stretches of road that can go for 160 miles in between gas stations, and I'm not just talking about gas stations alongside the road. If you run out of gas in the middle of one of those highways the nearest gas station would be like 60 miles away in the wrong direction.
Ohtani is so popular there is a Japanese broadcast during games that keeps the camera on him at ALL times
How many teams can even give a contract out like that besides Dodgers and Yankees
I look forward to this every week. Marketing Monday and Tosh Show are my most favorite anticipated every week in all forms of media/entertainment. Thank you Atrioc.
Even with the lower salary, at least if the doctor get's hurt they won't go into major life debt for it.
"EUROPE WHY SO QUIET?" ... are you a doctor? Then you are fully unaffected by this fact, nor ever able to benefit from it. If you think its a zinger that our doctors dont make as much, then you reaching as far as you possibly could to find something to finaly get back at us. You want a counter point? If you become a doctor in america, you still have SO MUCH student debt that you break even barely when you are in your mid 40s.
'Murica.
My girlfriend requests you talk about the marketing of the mystery bags from Trader Joe’s
YESSSSSS
Uh Atrioc I worked at Buc-ee’s, they pay a lot because they expect a lot. Open 365 days a year. I live in Daytona, they stayed open during the whole hurricane and I was scheduled to work so I had to drive through the hurricane to work for 8 hours and then drive back. No streetlights at all haha. Also they will fire you instantly. Use your phone at any point during your shift, fired, eat a chicken tender fired and prosecuted and trespassed. Go outside while on the clock and your not maintenance fired, can only go to the bathroom with permission 1 employee at a time so you better hope someone didn’t ask before you. Smoke in the parking lot off the clock, fired, don’t have a receipt well you probably stole it fired. Helping customers with car problems better not be in uniform or your fired. Also Truckers are banned from Buc-ee’s better be in a sedan or SUV. Not even RV’s can go there. Also better not be looking like a zoomer because they will follow you through the whole store because you don’t look Christian enough and might steal. You white and look Christian hey no problem you got blue hair someone’s following you. Buc-ee’s instills fear into the employees and that’s why they don’t care if you’re fired because of you ain’t afraid they don’t want you. Oh forgot 7 minute lunch breaks can I get an Amen. Getting your food and standing in line counts toward your lunchtime too so better be quick. You go to the bathroom at the end of your break well they might fire you for stealing time. It’s a slave ship, all day long I hear did you hear X got fired or hey better watch out they’ll fire you. Everybody only talks about who got fired or being fired. I worked there a year and saw at least 30+ people fired for petty stuff. Think twice before you work there and if you do don’t make friends there. The chicken tender thing wasn’t a joke. Guy ate a tender, pull him in office confront him send him back to work. Police arrive they take him out in cuffs and trespass him. Lmao what a great place to work. Oh also their corporate phone number just tells you to go to the website. You can’t call and talk to anyone. Honestly, a lot of us Floridians don’t know how Buc-ee’s is in Florida because they are breaking so many labor laws. Like the employees are that afraid that they don’t even report abuse of workers.
i love not knowing whats going on in the world, becuase being informed by Atrioc's MM is just the most fun way to learn stuff. so great
Buccees founder lives/ started buccees like half an hour south of me.
Painted his house once like a decade ago. Nice guy, I think his son was a nutcase though.
I'm both surprised and not surprised buccees is as big as it is now.
I honestly don't like going much anymore besides to use the bathroom on road trips.
They got too popular and too big and its just not the same.
Their pay has always been the same though, was always hard to get a job there.
One thing to note about Buc-ees. They work their employees asses off. It's damn good money but they will expect 100% the whole time. This is a little anecdotal, but a college friend of mine was threatened to be fired if he left his shift to run to his car and grab his inhaler for his asthma attack. He had to sneak out when his boss was busy.
We've had mcdonalds Coffee for ages over here, it's called mccafé, does american mcdonalds not have that?
It is pretty crazy that Ronaldo's contract is 3x Ohtani's in yearly value. And if you look at the amount per game it's over 16x larger. All while Ronaldo nears the end of his career.
8:31 in Australia we just have McCafe
I was so confused that they felt the need to separate McDonald's and McCafe over there into two different franchises.
But if he DOES make it to 2043.... That's an awful lotta money mane
Yeah, but the initial deal would have had him make all that same money by 2033, without the need for inflation and his potential death/apocalypse to cut into his profits.
Buccees is in Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee, and other states. They have plans for right outside of Cincinnati, OH too.
I don't know how truckers would love Bucee's. Bucee's doesn't allow, semis on their lots. They don't want to slow entrance or exit at the pump and don't want to pay for constant resurfacing.
-A Trucker
insane to me that mcdonalds is taking market shares from other fast food companies because last time i went to mcdonalds and got a 10 piece nuggets meal it was $13, but you can get a $5 from Wendys with a burger, fries, nuggets, and a drink. McDonalds is SO fucking expensive compared to wendys and burger king
The CosMcs line is ridiculous. Was curious one day and drove by, and it’s like the drink equivalent of a new in-and-out opening.
13:29 whoever wrote this demo is a big fan of the movie Billy Madison. “I colored the duck blue because I’ve never seen a blue duck before🤪”
At 4:00, there is no salary cap in baseball
That bucees twitter account is a parody one. the real one only posts when a new store is opened.
Hopefully Taylor's movie goes well so they can watch Call me by your name
So fun fact about buc-ees, they announced that they are going to have a new buc-ees in my town in ohio, and it is going to be one of, if not THE largest in the nation being a little less than half the size of a walmart supercenter.
Regarding the statements that Google is in trouble because their AI chat bot isn't up and running is a pretty underdeveloped viewpoint. A lot of Americans (including government bodies) were afraid of advertising programs, which were powered by AI, less than 5 years ago. Zoomers use the chat bots more than any other demographic, mainly to shortcut school assignments. But the only reason that hurts Google search, is that they charge businesses for advertising on a "customers attracted to your site" basis. And tons of sites that pay for Google advertising, and getting higher search priorities, they're the same sites that have 49 single-paragraph blurbs about a common search topic that teases the answer to the original question. And each of these blurbs is separated by an ad from another company, paying that site for ad views.
TLDR: Google isn't hurting because of ai bots. Companies that pay Google to prioritize them as search results are.
You should watch the video by Baseball doesnt Exist about Ohtani's contract. Really insightful!
I fucking love big A I’m so happy he’s back
just curious but how do these contracts compare with inflation adjusted (based on contract year signing)?
Going to put it out there, Ghana candidate could also be Lethal Bizzle (lethal B), 2 years ago released a daily duppy and in the rap song discusses about property development in ghana and how he might run for president. From london but ghanian family.
Bucees is one of the worst companies to work for they make you take standing breaks, never approve time off, etc.
I am from Texas and Bucees is legendary. Insane to me how people not from the south have never heard of it
Buccees made marketing Monday!
They have “no truck” signs tho, so not sure truckers go there on the job
Nice vod link in the description 🤣 (Full Vod: [Vod Link])
Atrioc finally made a video for me
Semafor is a great newsletter on Pan-African economics and politics - can’t believe I saw it on a Big A stream.
i love how when talking about cameo most actors that apeared where from breaking bad lmao
"The Ghana Gacha Party" is such an interesting concept I really want to see what happens.
The best editing I've seen so far on an Atrioc video. Great job.
SANCHOVIES FEATURE AT :24???????????? Pog
Has anyone mentioned Bucees are not just in TX and don't allow big rigs at the large "destination" locations across the south?
And yes, they are totally life changing...😅
Atrioc slowly becoming FoolishBaseball. Don't think we don't see Mr. Glizzy Hands...
I love how the videos are just becoming more and more like funny global news headlines
Who's going to tell Othani what his own proposal cost him? Make a DCF of that and show how much he misses out on by postponing the payments to 10 years from now...
That money could be simmering in an index fund for 10 years. He should get a better agent.
TH-cam keeps my algo crazy cause of every different "genre" I click on, but it doesn't fail to give me every single banger Big A is putting out right when their released. Letsgooo
This might sound stupid but I just need confirmation. Can his contract be voided if his injury goes on for longer or God forbid makes him permanently unplayable?
i want atrioc to talk more about football (i just got into the nfl and am kinda an expert now)
Why does the CosMcs logo look like it came straight out of the era of America that McDonalds was originally founded in
got to the Mcdonnalds part and i paused the video and biked to a mcdonnalds. now you can continue sir
Buc-ee’s are everywhere, there some in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, pretty much everywhere in the south. Also living in Texas with 150k is much better than living in California with 150k 😂
I want to see a marketers thoughts on those youtube ads where they are silent. I have noticed a big increase in them recently. They do stick out and i always look at my phone to skip them.
Ohtani is misspelled at the beginning of the video. Classic mistake for someone with your fingers to be typing G.H..
Swift broke the wall of China (real)
THAT NEW FORCE THING IS DEADASS WHAT HPYIxEL DID WHEN THEY ADDED DANTE AS A DICTATOR FOR AN EVENT
I unconditionally trust your financial advice since we've developed a parasocial relationship over the years. Could you make a video telling me where to invest my money so when the 2008 crash happens again i can buy bread please?
Red lobster looks crazy good
In France, they were forced to introduce McCafé, I'm surprised they haven't re-used the brand in the US
Would make more sense
There is a new baseball doesn’t exist video
A new video on every channel?! TH-cam frogs eating good tonight
2:07 average per year would NOT put him in the top five, it would put him like 30th
Great video. Both informative and fun
