Great, great, great way to start. Maybe you will cry. Ross Matthews. You know what kids always say to me? Are you a boy or a girl?

1:48Oh my God. All the time. That's so funny. I know. So I try to butch it up for kids so they're not confused. Yeah, but you're butching it up. It's basically like Doris Day. No, I turn into Bea Arthur. Listen to these episodes of Dear Chelsea on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This episode is brought to you by PNC Bank. A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring. And sure, they definitely can be. But understanding a professional's routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little, day after day. It's like banking with PNC Bank. It might seem boring to save, plan, and make calculated decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is what helps you live a more happily fulfilled life.

2:34PNC Bank, brilliantly boring since 1865. Brilliantly boring since 1865 is a service mark of the PNC Financial Service Group, Inc. PNC Bank, National Association, member FDIC. There's a few downward stocks right now. Netflix is down 34%. Meta's down 22%. Microsoft is down 17%. Tesla, 12%. Nvidia, 12%. Apple, 10%. Amazon, 8%. Google, 2%. What down stock is the stock that you most like right now? Out of this category, all of them long-term. If we're looking short-term, Microsoft will be first. and I really love the restructuring of Tesla no longer being a car company and being autonomous and him being focused more than ever.

3:26Do I think Netflix will recover? Once again, it's a debt issue. I think Netflix will probably be third and they'll be fine, but I'm going to have to go with Microsoft first, Tesla second, then Netflix third. The Rip is a great move. Kudos to Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. and what? You didn't? It's like Sopario in the town and won. I didn't finish it. I was watching, is it he said, she said, what was the joint? His and hers? His and hers. That's another. Yeah. Netflix is doing a few things that's concerning to me. Tell me more. Yeah. They going into music. Wait, what? Oh, you ain't hear about that?

4:10No, I've been, you know, I've been on my peaceful and meditation thing staying off the, no i didn't see that thing off the web yeah i spoke to somebody that's very high up on the food chain today when it comes to these content creation topics and they said that uh yeah netflix they're creating their own streaming service for music um and don't be surprised if they sign drake or somebody of that kind of that magnitude okay that i have heard yeah i think that might be i I don't know. It's a gamble. But then there's this number one, one of the top three movies on Netflix right now I watched yesterday.

4:47It's like The Suitcase Killer. You ever watched that? Oh, yeah. I was actually going to watch it last night. But you ain't in Netflix bag right now. It's concerning.

4:59The reason why... Run a business and not thinking about podcasting? Think again. More Americans listen to podcasts than ad-supported streaming music from Spotify and Pandora.

5:36Can you hypnotically persuade someone to buy a car? When you look at your car, you're going to become overwhelmed with such good feelings. Can you hypnotize someone into sleeping with you? I gave her some suggestions to be sexually aroused. Can you get someone to join your cult? NLP was used on me to access my subconscious. NLP, aka Neuro Linguistic Programming, is a blend of hypnosis, linguistics, and psychology. Fans say it's like finally getting a user manual for your brain. It's about engineering consciousness. Mind Games is the story of NLP, its crazy cast of disciples, and the fake doctor who invented it at a New Age commune and sold it to guys in suits.

6:18He stood trial for murder and got acquitted. The biggest mind game of all? NLP might actually work. This is wild.

I'm just like I impress myself a lot It's an amazing conversation One you definitely don't want to miss So listen to the Questlove show On the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts Or wherever You get your podcasts What's your strategy?

8:11The movie is a Lifetime It's like a lifetime movie Okay I was surprised that Netflix Even put it on their platform They do some of those that doesn't that to me just on an eye test the quality is eroding yeah no no no that's not fair it's like with def jam shot the def jam and everybody here it was like the last five years of the def jam yeah you starting to cut it too much you cutting it too much you cutting it too much man you cutting it too much man and it wasn't like the top 10 recommended too it was it was like number three it definitely is trending. I mean, tomorrow's a big day, right? By the time we come on Market Monday's next week, we'll have a better picture of what Netflix looks like.

9:01I think fourth quarter is traditionally their best quarter. Fourth and first are usually their best, obviously, because of the content that they put out. And they had a hell of a year. When you're talking about Stranger Things, I mean, it's still the most watched thing on Netflix. Billions of views. Talk about Squid Games that they had. They had the finale for that. then they brought in the dragon was the dragon demon or demon slayer whatever that thing is and that went crazy demon hunters that was incredible and they just had a wild card like the ditty documentary is a wild card but the numbers that it did were incredible adding to that the live sports you have football you had the jay paul fight i think they're going to report an incredible quarter um and maybe we'll get more clarity on what this warner brothers deal looks like.

9:47I know they're trying to expedite that. They said now they're going to do all cash. You do all cash. Now the time frame that you can get that content into the wheelhouse and start trying to make revenue off of it gets picked up in the first two quarters of this year where it was looking like if they were going to do loans and figure out how they were going to do buybacks and shares that would have took them to 2028. They're trying to get back into this space where I, yes we did the 10 to 1 spit, but we're still the most dominant thing when it comes to media and especially streaming services. Tomorrow will be very interesting.

10:20It's going to tell us a lot. I like Netflix. All right, before we bring MG on, because we got to bring MG on, the last thing is Microsoft. When is Microsoft? When are we going to see some action from Microsoft?

10:35Are you not happy with how they... I mean, I think they're in a great position right now to like around that stock level. I'm not going to give a price away, but$449 is a... Not even a buy point per se, but Microsoft has been kind of like... Yeah, I mean, a year ago it was$444 and today it's$459. So it's been pretty much flat for a year, right? When are we going to start to see Microsoft take off to the upside? I think once they figure out, to be very honest, the on boarding of a new ai partner and what that looks like and then also to the window of when opening i goes public this reminds me of like a star player being in a star organization but it's not working out so let's get this off the books let's get our 49 but now we have all the tools for copilot and all the software that we need um it's very interesting but like same with bitcoin If Bitcoin was at negative 10 % for the year, it still represents an immense buy-to-opportunity for the next two or three years.

11:46And I think on the enterprise front, as we head into recession in 27, I think they'll be more valuable. But like once they get the open AI situation, keep your calendars marked for when they'll go public, they'll be good. They'll be good. Ernest, what's up?
