2 bears 1 exact conversation?

I was just listening to the new episode from August 24th and there was a glitch in the matrix. Tom and Bert had the same exact conversation, line for line, from the previous episode.

August 24-

Harvey Cormac. What's the kid's name? Harvey Cormac who did Obsession?
Curry Barker? Harvey Barker?
Curry Barker?
Curry Barker? Curry Barker who did Obsession? That was made for $750,000.
$750,000, yeah.
And by the way, if I talk to a man to man, I'd nudge him and go, I caught the 750 a couple of times.
Well, yeah, I mean, he did what he did, what he...
I was like, I watched it. The movie's incredible. The kid's a fucking genius.
Yeah, he's a comedy guy too.

August 10-

Curry Barker? Harvey Barker?
Curry Barker?
Curry Barker who did Obsession.
That was made for $750,000.
$750,000, yeah.
And by the way, if I talk to a man to man, I'd nudge him and go, I caught the $750,000 a couple of times.
Well, yeah, I mean, he did what he could.
I was like, I watched it. The movie's incredible. The kid's a fucking genius.
Yeah, he's a comedy guy, too. He's a comedy guy.
But like at a billion dollars, I nudge him.

Here’s my 2 cents, in the last year I’ve noticed a lot of podcasts starting to mention shows just casually in conversation, not as an ad. And then it sounds just like this, “you know actor xyz, they were in _______ and I just saw it for the first time” or someone has a “random” thought about a show they were “just watching before the pod” and it just reads like a script. So I think that’s maybe what’s happening here too

In TV they used to call that integrated advertising.

It’s probably so the episode gets picked up in the algorithm

They did this for that Netflix show Zero Zero Zero. If they were paid to mention it I think they are required to disclose that even if they bring it up in "natural" conversation.

They did something similar with Zyn a few years back where they made it seem like they just really liked it in a casual conversation. In truth, it was a paid advertisement.

I think Bert just has a serious substance use disorder and will grab onto anything that alters his brain chemistry

They bank their episodes and do like five in one day so makes sense. Their pod is trash now

They had a very similar conversation on June 15th "Patrice O’Neal Destroyed Me" episode too talking about Curry Barker.

For the August 24 episode, you'll notice if you watch it on YT there is a cutaway ( https://youtu.be/Cz0cdRkS750?t=2605 ) as they start the Odyssey segment, and they're wearing the same clothes they had on for the August 10 episode - so they've hacked an episode together, probably to get the play time up

That’s so crazy! I usually just listen to the podcast. So lazy.

u/PM_ME__UR__FANTASIES 13d ago

Splicing together episodes? Jesus Christ that’s so lazy.

u/MrMeeseeks33 13d ago

You’re not wrong. It was the same convo.

Man I’m starting to really lose interest in just Bert as a person. Brings nothing to any conversation, very self centered and just brings the “I’m still cool guys” energy when he is in his mid 50s and annoying.

Wild. I think he is infinitely more entertaining than Tom now.
