FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

oh no things are getting critical over

0:02

ATX formally known as Twitter that we we

0:05

just got access to some documents

0:07

internal sales documents apparently

0:09

about ads at X after uh the oopsy

0:12

dupsies that happened over the last

0:14

couple weeks with Elon oo it doesn't

0:16

look good and uh what's interesting is

0:18

while we're going to cover that data I

0:21

wanted to start with this because this

0:24

kind of made me think wait a minute what

0:25

what's going on so Ellie she's great she

0:28

covers basically all things uh Tesla and

0:31

uh you know SpaceX and otherwise uh it

0:34

you know she's been posting a ton of

0:36

videos here Starship launch from

0:38

November 18th 3.9 th000 likes 330,000

0:42

Impressions uh you've got uh you've got

0:45

multiple here's a uh you know spaces

0:47

recording here's some more launch videos

0:49

1.6 th000 likes 5.4 th000 likes uh you

0:54

know we I the point is we're getting a

0:56

lot of engagement on some of these

0:58

videos uh it's so we would have expected

1:01

that over the last 2 weeks she would

1:03

have received a lot more ad Revenue than

1:06

she ended up getting a lot of these

1:08

posts probably averaging 500 1.4k over

1:11

here 1.9k

1:14

1.2k nearly 1K uh so this this is good

1:17

engagement right this is very good like

1:19

she's doing fantastic uh good for her

1:23

and she covers this the space uh events

1:25

a lot and uh it was concerning when I

1:27

saw this this morning very strange

1:30

I feel like the Starship launch coverage

1:33

and other Impressions I've gotten lately

1:36

uh as a result of those uh her Twitter

1:39

or X Revenue should have amounted to

1:43

more she says much more in fact it seems

1:46

every time I try to look at my analytics

1:48

half of my information is inaccurate or

1:51

broken hoping we can get better data

1:54

when it comes through earning with X now

1:57

look it's obviously been only that

2:00

Twitter has even started sharing ad

2:02

Revenue with users but there's a real

2:06

question that is there a chance ad

2:08

Revenue could come to a complete

2:10

standstill on X uh because take a look

2:13

at this through all these posts she had

2:16

a $

2:19

3862 ad rev share so I kept you know I

2:22

was reading some of the other comments I

2:24

I left a you know a comment about hey

2:26

like is this maybe from the two weeks

2:28

prior to the launch like is there lag in

2:30

the data I'm not sure but it definitely

2:32

seems messed up uh Joanna krier she she

2:36

ended up posting and this made me think

2:39

the problem's deeper and then I just got

2:41

through the tape it's still on the tape

2:43

from just a couple minutes ago here uh

2:45

the uh the up press release that uh you

2:47

know what's going on with X revenues

2:49

here but uh look at what Elon replies

2:52

here now quickly remember it's Black

2:55

Friday which means we have a Black

2:56

Friday sale New Gold Course drops for

just 300 $75 with live streams included

3:35

3:41

we're still working through so if you

3:43

email us at staff ATM kevin.com give us

3:45

a second we're getting through it but uh

3:47

take a look for now at this Elon replied

3:51

to Joanna's response here which is a

3:53

problem uh and again to be clear that

3:55

email though for the courses with staff

3:57

meetkevin.com

3:59

go to meetkevin.com to actually see all

4:01

the pricing of that but anyway Joanna

4:03

says seeing some folks mad over low rev

4:06

share remember this is a gift from X

4:08

Elon didn't have to do this be grateful

4:11

sorry if I seem harsh I'm not trying to

4:13

be I'm just being honest it's true I

4:15

mean again remember back in the day x

4:17

never used to monetize but one of the

4:19

big things about Elon taking over was

4:21

that he wanted to you be able to compete

4:23

with platforms like YouTube and would be

4:27

able to do so by offering creators

4:30

Revenue to incentivize more X exclusive

4:33

content production but you know now you

4:35

look at somebody like Ellie who you know

4:37

worked her ass off for two weeks and got

4:40

paid $38 that's that's weird so I

4:43

thought okay maybe it's a glitch you

4:44

know maybe it's the prior two weeks but

4:45

listen to elon's reply not much we can

4:48

do if advertisers boycott or reduce

4:51

spend on our

4:52

platform uh yikes that's not good at all

4:56

here so you can see the whole thing I

4:57

remember myself that's not good this was

5:00

just tweeted so

5:03

now you go

5:05

to and I understand pretty much

5:07

everybody on X and I guess I shouldn't

5:10

paint with that broad of a brush but

5:11

let's just be clear most people I

5:14

rephrase that a second time a lot of

5:16

people seem to dislike the New York

5:18

Times okay a lot of people I actually

5:21

don't think they're that bad uh you know

5:23

i' I've kind of grown up with times and

5:25

I think some of the information they

5:27

have is is very good is there going to

5:29

be a Leti is tilt of course that doesn't

5:31

mean some of the information is is is

5:33

bad although there has been bad

5:35

information don't get me wrong okay I'm

5:36

not here to defend the times but I still

5:38

read them uh and I'm a subscriber just

5:41

like I subscribe to you know right

5:42

leaning Publications so anyway look at

5:45

this internal documents leaked to the

5:48

New York Times and this makes sense by

5:49

the way that a left leaning organization

5:51

is going to get the leaks right like if

5:54

you work at Twitter and you're still

5:57

like super on the left or even just

5:58

slightly on the left and you're going to

5:59

going to leak some internal data are you

6:01

going to send it to Fox so they can bag

6:03

on musk or you going to send it to the

6:05

times who be more likely to bag on musk

6:08

right so again it makes sense that the

6:11

times has his data listen this internal

6:13

documents show companies like Airbnb

6:15

Coca-Cola and Microsoft have halted ads

6:17

or at risk of doing so after musk's

6:19

endorsement of an anti-semetic

6:21

conspiracy theory look I'm not going to

6:23

relitigate this I've done this a many

6:25

times let's just be clear Elon has

6:27

walked that back and defended that he

6:29

he's not he never meant to be anti-jew I

6:33

also don't think he's anti-jew I

6:35

legitimately don't think he hates any

6:37

class of people uh I do think he made a

6:40

big oopsy doopsy though with his post

6:42

like when I first read the post I'm like

6:44

bro you're adding fuel to the hate fire

6:48

you could have gone and responded to the

6:50

positive comment but you chose to

6:52

respond to the hate filled comment and

6:55

amplify it and support it anyway

7:00

uh X the social media company formerly

7:02

known as Twitter could lose as much as

7:03

$75 million in advertising Revenue in

7:07

just two months actually only about 7

7:10

weeks uh because this is by the end of

7:13

the year following dozens of Major

7:15

Brands pausing their marketing after its

7:17

owner Elon Musk endorsed an anti-semitic

7:19

conspiracy theory uh you know earlier

7:22

this month $75 million okay this is this

7:25

is a big oopsy doopsy so first of all

7:27

they used to Twitter back when it was

7:30

Twitter used to make about $1.6 billion

7:32

in ad Revenue which was about

7:34

$133

7:35

million in ad Revenue per month so back

7:39

then over a 7-week period when Twitter

7:41

was public Twitter would have earned

7:43

about $230 million in ad Revenue $230

7:47

million in ad Revenue losing 75 million

7:51

out of 230 would be a loss of about

7:54

32% but we don't actually think ad

7:56

revenue is back up to the levels where

7:58

it was

8:00

back when Twitter was Twitter now we

8:03

think ad revenues are down at least

8:04

somewhere around 40% so if I take 40%

8:08

off of

8:09

230 then that means about half and I

8:14

think that's a roughly accurate estimate

8:16

about half of elon's AD Revenue may have

8:20

just gone up in smoke because of the

8:24

anti-semitic

8:26

controversy uh not only have IBM apple

8:28

and Disney but now companies like Airbnb

8:31

Coca-Cola Microsoft Netflix is in there

8:34

all these companies are suggesting they

8:36

might scale back spend now there has

8:38

been a trend on Twitter of people like

8:41

Tim pool suggesting he'll buy $250,000 a

8:43

month of ads Andrew Tate Sals he'll buy

8:46

a million dollars worth of ads honestly

8:48

I don't think either of them will and

8:50

I'm not trying to bag on either of them

8:51

for for example I I did a great podcast

8:53

with Tim P I think he's a great guy he's

8:55

he's very

8:57

intelligent but I don't think either of

8:59

them actually will I think it's a

9:00

popular thing to say I don't think

9:01

they'll actually do again that's no

9:04

that's not bagging them I just I just

9:05

don't think they will uh so you know

9:10

it's easy to say you're going to boycott

9:12

products from all these companies

9:14

cutting ads but I mean you're going to

9:16

boycott products from a lot of different

9:19

companies not just Airbnb Coke but Jack

9:21

in the Box Netflix Apple uh Uber you

9:26

know Airbnb this is a these are a lot of

9:28

different companies

9:29

Microsoft various subsidiaries of

9:32

Microsoft have stopped advertising uh

9:34

Amazon's units for Books and Music uh

9:37

has stopped advertising as have some of

9:40

the subsidiaries of Google NBC

9:44

Universal Meet the Press uh well then we

9:46

have a you know Chris chrisy over there

9:49

uh slamming all the hate that's just

9:51

going on around the world that's fine uh

9:53

Elon Musk then noted the company would

9:55

donate all revenue from advertising and

9:57

subscriptions associated with the war to

10:00

uh the Red Cross and other relief

10:02

agencies in Gaza maybe a lot of

10:04

engagement on Twitter has been related

10:05

to Gaza and so maybe a lot of it is

10:07

being donated but the potential loss of

10:11

of per my quick calculations here of

10:13

maybe

10:14

half of their revenue because of of uh

10:17

elon's uh tweeting is is not good uh you

10:20

know people get mad at me and they say

10:22

oh so you still think uh Elon should uh

10:24

should step down I I I think either you

10:27

know he shouldn't be the face of PR if

10:29

he's going to have these opinions or or

10:32

like have the opinions but maybe maybe

10:35

as the face of a of of two business is

10:37

businesses where where you know hundreds

10:39

of thousands well maybe not hundreds of

10:41

thousands you got maybe like 110,000

10:42

employees at Tesla and then another you

10:44

know certain amount of thousand X

10:46

thousand couple thousand or whatever

10:47

employees at Twitter all these people

10:49

rely on on you for their livelihood if

10:53

you're saying things that's pissing off

10:54

the world uh does that potentially put

10:58

their jobs at risk does it potentially

11:00

mean elon's going to have to sell more

11:02

Tesla stock to finance losses at X so uh

11:07

unfortunately there's some degree of

11:09

probable you know self-limiting in terms

11:13

of the engagement with hateful posts

11:15

that someone would make that someone

11:18

should really consider doing now I know

11:20

people hear that and they say oh you

11:22

know that's

11:23

self-censoring well like look at the the

11:26

CEOs of basically any major company are

11:29

they out engaging on political opinion

11:32

uh you know with very very hateful

11:35

topics where you know you're going to

11:36

piss off at least half of people no they

11:39

don't it's just not what CEOs do because

11:44

they don't want to destroy their

11:46

business so I don't know if this is just

11:49

like a like a you know uh well you know

11:53

I should be able to speak my mind freely

11:54

and it shouldn't affect my sales you're

11:56

right it shouldn't but it will

12:00

so it's kind of like you know let's say

12:03

you have a job making

12:05

$100,000 uh a year standing in the

12:07

middle of of of a traffic Street uh or

12:11

or like a street corner or whatever you

12:13

need to direct traffic okay there's

12:14

you're not allowed to have street lights

12:15

there you direct the traffic and you

12:18

have a job $100,000 a year but you have

12:19

to come dressed up in your uniform every

12:21

single day and you're not allowed to

12:23

have tattoos and then one day you show

12:25

up with a tattoo and you're fired for

12:28

expressing your yourself with a tattoo

12:30

is that fair no cuz you're expressing

12:33

yourself but does that make any

12:36

difference to the fact that now you lost

12:37

the job no you see what I'm saying like

12:41

still going to lose the job so what was

12:43

the point if you if if that statement

12:47

was worth $100,000 to you fantastic

12:50

hopefully it's something

12:52

good because you were willing to take

12:54

that loss but here I think there's a lot

12:56

of heads scratching going on and it

12:57

seems to be getting worse so I'm

12:59

definitely paying attention to this as a

13:01

Tesla shareholder why not advertise

13:03

these things that you told us here I

13:04

feel like nobody else knows about this

13:06

we we'll try a little advertising and

13:07
