What Celebrities Know About You: An Insightful Analysis

The Power of Attention Span in Today's Media Landscape

In today's fast-paced world, celebrities like Dave Chappelle, Elon Musk, and Taylor Swift have uncovered a truth: the modern individual possesses an attention span comparable to a canary. This fleeting focus can lead to immense popularity one day, like Taylor Swift's concert tour, and stark criticism the next, as seen with Dave Chappelle's recent performance.

The Fickle Nature of Fans and the Impact on Content Creators

Drawing from my own experiences, episodes I've produced have seen varying degrees of success. For instance, episode 277, which I consider a personal triumph, garnered significant attention. Yet, subsequent episodes, even when touching on similar themes, didn't resonate as strongly. This inconsistency highlights the unpredictable nature of audiences and their ever-shifting allegiances.

The Underlying Message: A Call for Deeper Reflection

Beyond the numbers, there's a deeper message. Many are quick to form opinions without fully engaging with content, as seen with episodes discussing the state of Israel. This mirrors the reaction Dave Chappelle faced, with audiences choosing to walk out rather than fully listen. It's a reminder of the importance of open-mindedness in our current era.

America's Changing Landscape: A Personal Perspective

Reflecting on episode 277, it's evident that my intention wasn't to celebrate America's challenges but to express concern for its trajectory. From the erosion of democracy post-Eisenhower to the rise of corporate influence, the nation's evolution is both fascinating and concerning. As we navigate these changes, it's crucial to remain informed and engaged.

Transcripts

00:00 [Music] yes indeed thanks for tuning in folks hope that life is treating you well and this is episode number 279 I think I've discovered what celebrity celebrities such as Dave Chappelle Elon Musk and Taylor Swift know about you that you may not even know about about yourself before go into this would you please click the Subscribe and notification Bell it really helps my Channel's analytics and makes YouTube happy and all that stuff so my channel can grow plus you'll never miss another show and you will automatically qualify

00:55 for the fake non-existent drawing for the $1 million cash prize being given out at some future undetermined date so what just about all media celebrities know whether they be actors entertainers athletes or even politicians these people know with absolute certainty that the average person today has the attention span of a canary this is the reason they can be riding very high one day such as Taylor Swift's current Mega successful concert tour as well as the addition of her movie then find themselves falling into

01:46 big trouble the next such as many fans walking out from Dave Chappelle's performance just recently apparently their way of letting Chappelle know that they did didn't agree with his politics like I said fans can be very fickle love you one day hate you the next so in light of what happened to Dave Chappelle I couldn't really think of a better person to illustrate my point than myself so let me tell you about this I put out two episodes last week that were pretty critical of Israel numbers 273 and 274 now they didn't get a lot of views I

02:38 think it was something like you know 12 and 14 respectively as of today now that's not a lot of views but I'm a smalltime player in a very big field so I'm thankful for what I got then I put out an episode that went viral Al well okay it didn't I mean it didn't actually go viral but it went viral for me episode 277 received 150 some downloads so far and that's the most downloads I've ever had so for me it was going viral I hit a home run as far as I'm concerned and I'm really happy that

03:26 so many people liked that episode but what happened happened next was really strange so then I published episode 278 now this episode is also critical of the state of Israel because news flash I just happen to be admittedly critical of the state of Israel and I feel I have some very justifiable reasons for having that position but having already done two episodes of my criticisms of the state of Israel 273 and 274 as I mentioned earlier this episode was very different the main thrust of this episode number 278 was the

04:16 financial uh instability that this was going to bring on to the US working class and how stupid shameful and embarrassing the US government's unrequitted love affair with Israel is now remember I had just come off of basically hitting a home run with episode 277 so I wasn't by any means feeling cocky when I made episode 278 but I thought I you know I thought I had a realistic chance of you know an expectation of some fairly decent view numbers like I don't know around at least 50 or 60 let's say how many have I

05:03 received so far today it is are you ready drum roll and all that three so naturally this makes me think what the hell's going on here and sure enough the analytics told the story as far as episode 277 was concerned the one with over 150 views the V vast majority of people who listened to that episode simply listen to it the whole way through whereas the episode 278 the numbers of people listening over 40 seconds was zero so from what happened this is what I'm able to infer people who looked at my artwork

05:56 for episodes 273 and 274 and 278 were pro-israeli with preconceived notions so like frightened intellectually challenged canaries they flew away least anything threaten their world view or at least their Israeli world view and this is exactly the same thing that happened to Dave Chappelle it was more important for them to make a very juvenile statement about their feelings concerning Israel by walking out of his performance than to think and act as intelligent adults and to at least actually listen to everything Chappelle

06:47 had to say thus demonstrating these uh weren't exactly people with open minds now if I may just touch briefly back on my magnum opus episode 277 you see what is strange here was that I almost got the impression that through the artwork people who saw you know what they saw they internalized what they themselves wanted to see namely a broken America well so if that's the case let me just set the record straight I was in no way celebrating the current poor state of my country I recognize that many times I have been very critical of what's going

07:42 on with this country's government and there sure as hell is a lot of things that are wrong that should and could be fixed and a hell of a lot of people particularly in Washington DC who are not in jail but should be I was simply sadly lamenting for all intents and purposes losing the country that I grew up in and having my government replaced with what I believe can best be described as thinly veiled corporate fascism I'm deeply saddened that the masses of people still actually believe they currently live in a

finally driven underground in:

09:18 are employed by the oligarchs the true owners of this country and much of the world to finish up here this is the primary reason why the current US government as well as all of its Western buddies is in no way they don't want or desire citizens they want consumers they want canaries with no attention span to keep things exactly as they are I was thinking about going into this as possibly a part two on Friday if that's something you would like you know how to reach me please do and if you have any particular questions

10:16 or anything you want mention I'll try to get to that as well so until next time this is Ernest thanks for listening wishing your health wealth and good luck
