As an aside, I am not certain “tweeting” is appropriate for the President of the United States, especially since they seem to go out unfiltered to the public, which could be a positive or negative depending on your point of view. I was thinking how it would be much more comfortable for those of us at Intrepid Capital to “remain silent” than offer our opinions on the state of the capital markets. I am also reminded of the peril in what I would call “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” syndrome. We have consistently expressed the view that stock prices in relation to the underlying business values are high and likely distorted by the interest rate suppression activity of central banks across the globe. Frankly, I am sure you are tired of hearing this refrain, but it is true, using almost any valuation method one chooses. Always remember the quote from the godfather of value investing, Warren Buffett: “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” My concern for our shareholders, after a long period of both low volatility and higher than normal annualized returns in the U.S. equity markets, is that it becomes expected that one will earn 15% with little risk.

    SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE AND PHILOSOPHY ffirs_UK.indd 1 08-01-2020 21:06:50 The Blackwell Philosophy and Pop Culture Series Series editor William Irwin A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, and a healthy helping of popular culture clears the cobwebs from Kant. Philosophy has had a public relations problem for a few centuries now. This series aims to change that, showing that philosophy is relevant to your life—and not just for answering the big questions like “To be or not to be?” but for answering the little questions: “To watch or not to watch South Park?” Thinking deeply about TV, movies, and music doesn’t make you a “complete idiot.” In fact it might make you a philosopher, someone who believes the unexamined life is not worth living and the unexamined cartoon is not worth watching.

  • Doubt Int He Wilderness
    Doubt in the Wilderness Preacher: Rev. Lauren Lorincz Date: September 21, 2014 13:54 “Doubt in the Wilderness” Pilgrim Church UCC, September 21, 2014 (Exodus 16:2-15) One of my favorite characters on Saturday Night Live was Debbie Downer played by Lexington native Rachel Dratch. Debbie would be present at parties and events and would always find a way to bring her friends and family down by changing the subject of conversations to something negative and often tragic. At Walt Disney World, one of the happiest places on earth, the whole family is eating breakfast and deciding how they will spend their day. Someone exclaims that they just love Mickey’s Steak and Eggs and Debbie responds, “Ever since they found mad cow disease in the US, I’m not taking any chances. They say it can live in your body for up to three years before it attacks and destroys your brain.” And every time Debbie Downer delivers one of these lines you hear the sad trombone sound. You see her poor family member about to happily eat his steak and eggs looking all crest-fallen that she had to go talking about mad cow disease. But then Pluto comes up and hugs Debbie, what a sweet moment. Debbie says, “Oh, hi Pluto. It must be really fun working at Disney. Although at any major theme park, you live in constant threat of terrorist attacks.” Naturally, poor Pluto gets dejected, hangs his head, and slowly walks away from all that negativity.[1] I appreciate Debbie Downer as a fictional character because I think we’ve all encountered real Debbie Downers in our lives.

  • Taking Back the Laugh: Comedic Alibis, Funny Fails
    Taking Back the Laugh: Comedic Alibis, Funny Fails William Cheng Eighteen days after 11 September 2001, a new season of Saturday Night Live premiered on schedule, making big headlines given how most other television programs were getting replaced by round-the-clock news coverage. The NFL and MLB called off games, the Emmys were doubly postponed, Rockstar delayed the release of Grand Theft Auto III (set in a fictionalized New York City), and Disney’s parks closed their doors.1 Entertainment across the United States—sitcoms, sports, rollercoasters— screeched to a halt, ground to zero. For SNL producer Lorne Michaels to reboot his laugh factory was saying something.2 Specifically, Michaels wanted the host Reese Witherspoon to say “fuck- ing.”3 He told her to work the word into the opening monologue’s punch- line, declaring he would happily pay whatever Federal Communications I’m grateful for thoughtful feedback from Lauren Berlant, Judith Farquhar, Roger Mathew Grant, Sianne Ngai, Anca Parvulescu, and additional participants in the Comedy: An Issue workshop (10–11 Dec. 2015) at the University of Chicago. 1.

  • SNL's Broadway Video Charts the Evolution of Branded Content
    SNL's Broadway Video Charts the Evolution of Branded Content 06.08.2017 Branded content is the present and future of marketing, but its origins might take you by surprise. It all began with The Bass-O-Matic '76 on Saturday Night Live. The ad parody starring Dan Aykroyd was an instant success, and planted the seeds for what would be the branded content we know today -- funded content to communicate with customers in a fun and engaging way. Megan Callahan, Writer, "Saturday Night Live," Elaine Cantwell, CCO, Broadway Video Enterprises and Britta von Schoeler, President, Broadway Video Enterprises, charted the origins and evolution of branded content, revealing the formula that Saturday Night Live has used to perfection over 42 seasons. While von Schoeler was initially worried about using real products for their parody ads, that is routinely dispelled, as was the case with the recent Lincoln car parody starring Jim Carrey. After the parody, there was a 25% increase in car sales for the Lincoln MKC, which the company directly attributed to the SNL commercial. At the time, two million people had seen the actual commercial, and 13 million had viewed the SNL parody. That led Pete VonDerLinn, executive creative director, Partners & Napier, to say the following: "The social currency a campaign can get from an SNL parody is marketing gold." Callahan outlined Broadway Video's creative process to achieve marketing gold with their branded content. She recommends a large writing team that boasts diverse voices and experiences for a wide range of ideas. But before that happens, it all starts with considering and maximizing the demographic.
