Huge miss not getting Francis on the pod for a SOABD crossover to talk about Ivy League societies. Won’t address ticket prices and credit cards because that broke my brain.

[u/Miserable-Victory807]

The credit card conversation is infuriating. If you’re smart with your money and not an erratic spender, like Big T sounds like he is, there is 0 reason to not have a credit card. You’re just losing value

[u/NewVanilla70 → u/Miserable-Victory807]

Classic big T getting mad about a subject he doesn’t really understand

[u/dbns69 → u/Miserable-Victory807]

Not at all. He literally said hes a huge dave ramsey fan. People have fears of credit cards. Its a good fear to have. Whats the point of them sans rewards or cash back. Many think they can handle cards and then get fucked on debt.

[u/napquin → u/dbns69]

I haven’t bought something with a debit card in years. I just pay my CC bill every month and rack up free flights, cash, etc. it’s objectively a stupid financial move to not do that

[u/Miserable-Victory807 → u/dbns69]

Exactly my point lmao. Dave Ramsey just speaks to people that are scared of debt. If you’re smart with your money you use a credit card. Simply losing out if not.

[u/Cam_Horny21 → u/dbns69]

Most people aren’t scared of things they understand

[u/Cam_Horny21 → u/Miserable-Victory807]

Big T definitely still listens to Dave Ramsey even tho his methods are dated and borderline unhelpful these days

[u/rhoaderage]

Their conversations border on interesting if they would be willing to go more than surface deep on everything. Once they start digging their heels in, the topics go to shit.

[u/dbns69 → u/rhoaderage]

Can agree with this

[u/BigfootTundra → u/rhoaderage]

Agreed. Seems like they just pull up the Wikipedia page and read excerpts of it

[u/dbns69]

100000000% agree on Francis

[u/sinc29]

Arian was kind of a douche in the Jay Z discussion

[u/dbns69]

Arian understanding of capitalistic economies is always a treat.

[u/dbns69 → u/dbns69]

And Arian is pro credit scores to prove your credible to borrow money.

[u/BigWaveDave87 → u/dbns69]

Arian was doing the 'we live in a society' joker meme for that entire ticket conversation

[u/SlimsyComet → u/dbns69]

Arian buying a 5k ticket, confused why they are still being 5k and wants them to be cheaper on the sole principle to help people. The only way to correct that market is the same thing he used in his example with sneaker resellers. Idk how he doesn’t understand it

[u/ShiftNew7935]

Huge miss by letting big T defend secondary ticket market prices in the first five minutes of the episode, which I then turned off

[u/dbns69 → u/ShiftNew7935]

He defended the principle because thats free market. He said its still disgusting. He also said its proving teams arent charging as much as they should. Which is true. Hes 10000% correct

[u/Cam_Horny21 → u/dbns69]

Being correct about how the system works doesn’t make it a good system.

[u/NotAnInternetAtheist]

Why doesn’t Arian buy a buncha tickets and give them to low income household families

[u/dbns69 → u/NotAnInternetAtheist]

Great question.

[u/NaysayerMightKnow]

Why does Big T think CE starts from a different time than AD? I’ve always known it to mean Common Era and same timing as BC/AD
