5. 0:09I think we're losing the ability to talk
6. 0:10to each other and to actually have
7. 0:12valuable conversations cuz everything

13. 0:25my head in. I was thinking that it's the
14. 0:27over intellectual the over
15. 0:29intellectualization
16. 0:30of everything. People are like, "So,
17. 0:31what's your take on what's happening in
18. 0:33the world?"
19. 0:33>> but also people use the same phrases
20. 0:35when they're having these hot takes. So,
21. 0:37it's like
22. 0:37>> Such as 100% agree. Such as in case

24. 0:42then they'll go into something that
25. 0:43we've heard a million times before like
26. 0:45>> Oh, period.

31. 0:52Anything that can be summed up in less
32. 0:54than 240 characters or whatever it is on
33. 0:57X is not a is not a valuable
34. 1:00conversation.
35. 1:00>> know, I'm have to change my mind. I
36. 1:01actually I like takes. I think takes are
37. 1:03good for society because people I guess
38. 1:05people thinking a little bit.
39. 1:06>> But does it though? Because how do you
40. 1:07then go from point A to like
41. 1:09>> Being a lawyer. I'm speaking to an
42. 1:10ex-lawyer here. So, like I like things
43. 1:12to be defined.
44. 1:13>> You want to go to point you want to go
45. 1:14from point A to point B. I want to stay
46. 1:16at point A.
47. 1:17>> Technically, we're on our way to point B
48. 1:18right now. I also think that it's
49. 1:20because of all these hot takes that
50. 1:21we're sort of um
51. 1:23we've lost the art of looking into each
52. 1:25other's eyes and saying nice things to
53. 1:27each other. The art of conversation.
54. 1:29>> Yes, because we're all on the internet
55. 1:31like typing away like filming our faces
56. 1:33and nobody looks at themselves looks at
57. 1:36each other in the eye anymore. Yeah. How
58. 1:39long can you hold eye contact?
59. 1:39>> I it's I'm going to try.
60. 1:41>> pretty good at it. No, I'm not actually.
61. 1:42>> [laughter]
62. 1:43>> I'm feeling really uncomfortable. I
63. 1:44think that hot takes are necessary for
64. 1:45me to continue to grow my global media
65. 1:48empire.
66. 1:48>> Look, as I said, no offense to the king
67. 1:50of the hot take. Snogging, I think we
68. 1:52need to bring back snogging.
69. 1:54>> What the hell snogging is? You know, you
70. 1:55kissing someone. What?
71. 1:57Exchanging fluids. Wait, what? I make my
72. 2:00case.
