Description

Run Run RunwayML Apps are all the rage. Have you heard?! Producer Brandon kicks off the discussion with an insightful report from the Marketing AI Institute's MECON conference. He highlights the event's explosive growth and its surprising focus on the human side of artificial intelligence, emphasizing that AI is a tool for marketers, not a replacement. A key takeaway was the idea that an "AI strategy" will soon become as commonplace and integrated as an "internet strategy" is today. Brandon also shared a groundbreaking primetime commercial created entirely with AI, underscoring that creative vision remains the driving force behind the technology. The conversation also touches on the latest AI news, including updates to GPT-5, the rumored acceleration of GPT-6, and the functionality of new models like VO3.1. Building on this, Kyle Shannon explores the rapid evolution of AI video, comparing this moment to the dawn of the public internet. He predicts that tools like Sora and Runway are moving beyond simple video generation to become powerful "worldbuilders," capable of creating immersive 3D environments, dynamic games, and entirely new forms of interactive presentations. The conversation then shifts to a hands-on lab, where Kyle experiments with Runway's new app suite and attempts to create a multi-character scene in Sora. This live demo offers a candid look at both the incredible potential and the current "janky" limitations of these cutting-edge creative tools. #ArtificialIntelligence #MarketingAI #AIinMarketing #CreativeAI #AIVideo #Sora #RunwayML #FutureOfTech Chapters: 00:00:00 Intro 00:05:21 Mecon Conference Report 00:06:44 GPT-6 Rumors 00:08:12 GPT-5'S Routing Model 00:10:25 GPT-4O Deprecated 00:13:58 Live Song Creation 00:18:20 Conference Growth 00:20:44 Digital-First Agencies 00:22:06 The Cry Method 00:24:26 AI Strategy Debate 00:25:54 AI-Powered AD Agency 00:27:22 AI Commercial Demo 00:30:40 Fidelity of the Idea 00:33:34 AI as Worldbuilders 00:37:32 Immersive Presentations 00:43:36 Exploring Runway Apps 00:48:45 Removing Video Objects 00:51:55 Adding a Performance 00:54:39 Relighting a Scene 00:59:24 Sora Cameo Prompts 01:05:27 Creating a 70S Newscast 01:11:36 The Janky Phase of AI 01:17:46 Newscast Video Revealed 01:20:43 Fake Puppy Commercial 01:23:12 Finding the Mastermind

0:38 I met my baby at the F club underneath
0:43 time cafe on the corner life at four
0:47 street late one's day she offered me a
0:51 red strap I said baby not a chance I But
0:54 go for cool ginger ale. How about we
0:57 just dance? We did the boom shabboom
1:00 doo. I did it. Mocha chocolata and a
1:03 nitty-gritty. We did the oo the lazy
1:05 ballerina. Baby make me feel like I'm a
1:08 California dreamer. Yeah.
1:13 Oh yeah.
1:15 [Music]
1:21 >> What's happening, champ?
1:24 [Music]
1:41 [Music]
2:16 [Music]
2:26 Good evening, good people. We're
2:28 shaking.
2:32 [Music]
2:45 [Music]
2:50 I love you.
2:56 [Music]
3:29 Hello.
3:33 Hello.
3:36 [Music]
3:54 Is this place I can rinse my por
3:58 [Music]
4:02 my thoughts in
4:04 Silence.
4:05 [Music]
4:08 This is place where the feelings are
4:11 dead.
4:12 [Applause]
4:15 From an overest
4:20 place I can slowly face. The only one I
4:24 truly can know.
4:28 These are tears from a long time ago.
4:31 Got these tears from a long time ago.
4:38 So these are tears from a long time ago.
4:44 Go.
4:48 [Music]
4:50 [Applause]
4:53 [Music]
4:58 Okay.
5:00 Um, lots going on tonight.
5:03 We've got the new uh the new I I can't
5:08 even keep track anymore. We've got
5:10 VO3.1.
5:12 We've got Runway that's got a whole new
5:14 app suite. And if you're like, what are
5:16 Runway apps? We can play with those
5:18 tonight and find that out. Um, Brandon
5:21 just spent two days at MECON, the
5:24 Marketing AI Institute annual
5:26 convention, I guess, learning all about
5:28 all sorts of marketing and AI.
5:31 They go together like like peanut butter
5:34 and chocolate.
5:36 [Laughter]
5:38 They do. They do. It's good. It's good.
5:41 It's [ __ ] everything up. It's going
5:43 to change everything. Nobody knows
5:45 what's going on. Everybody's in a panic.
5:46 But it's awesome. It's awesome. Things
5:49 are good. Things are awesome. So, he's
5:52 going to give us a report from the
5:54 floor. From the floor of the New York of
5:56 the Cleveland Mecon Exchange.
5:59 [Music]
6:01 Sounds like he met some cool people
6:03 doing some cool things.
6:06 And uh yeah,
6:09 [Music]
6:11 [Laughter]
6:18 [Music]
6:27 [Applause]
6:28 [Music]
6:38 How's how's five been working out for
6:41 you? Uh, I heard I heard a thing today
6:45 that apparently Open AAI is accelerating
6:48 their launch timeline and they're going
6:50 to launch GPT6 before the end of the
6:52 year. I also heard that they're going to
6:56 launch an update to five that has four
7:00 O's personality.
7:03 I I'm guessing that's more marketing
7:06 than reality. uh even if they do it and
7:08 say that that's the case. So they can
7:11 actually retire four before they go to
7:14 six.
7:16 So basically what what it sounds like is
7:19 by February we'll have 17 models again.
7:24 [Music]
7:26 Um, I gotta tell you though, so
7:29 with GPT5,
7:35 one of the things that came out, one of
7:36 the things that seems pretty clear
7:39 is that when they launched GPT5, so so
7:42 GPT5 is actually three different models.
7:46 It's like a regular multimodal model.
7:49 It's a light reasoning model, a fast
7:51 reasoning model, and then it's a thinky
7:53 reasoning model, and then they have a
7:54 pro reasoning model. So, I think the the
7:57 distinction between
7:59 the the regular thinking and pro is just
8:01 how much time they spend. And then I
8:03 think the the light thinking is actually
8:05 a lighter model and then the GPT50
8:10 is the one that just answers. Sitting on
8:13 top of those is a routing model. So,
8:16 when you ask chat GPT5 something,
8:18 assuming you've got it in auto mode,
8:20 which is the default,
8:23 um,
8:25 hang on. Changing things here.
8:28 It switches between models for you
8:31 dynamically. Well, apparently at launch
8:34 that router was was broken. It was
8:37 faulty. It was not good. Um, and what
8:41 I've noticed is that probably starting
8:45 two weeks ago, the results I'm getting
8:48 back from GPT5 are just good. They're
8:52 they're just they they may not have the
8:54 personality that 40 had and and they
8:57 they feel less predictable than 40 was
8:59 probably because it's switching between
9:01 models. Um, but it's just good. It's
9:05 just good. So, so GPT5 is fine. If
9:08 that's not what you're asking about,
9:09 then I don't I don't know. Thinking
9:12 longer for a better answer. Not good at
9:14 all. Why not? Why is that not good at
9:16 all? Sacred is profane. Why is it not
9:19 good if it thinks longer? Oh, it's been
9:22 a code menace for me. Yeah, I'm not
9:24 doing a ton of coding with it. I I'm I I
9:28 would imagine that um that different
9:33 yeah different use cases are going to
9:35 have you know what is it your mileage
9:38 may vary. Um yeah I mean good news is
9:42 you've got Claude 4.5 Sonnet that's
9:45 apparently pretty baller. Um that's the
9:47 new model that sits behind uh
9:49 lovable.dev which I've been playing with
9:51 a fair amount recently and that's pretty
9:53 good. Um, but yeah. Um, no, you said
9:59 the node was not good at launch. Oh, not
10:01 good at all. Yeah, it was the it was the
10:04 model. It It wasn't the node. It was It
10:06 was the It was the routing model. So So
10:09 there's basically a model sitting on top
10:11 of all these other models. That's the
10:13 thing that was faulty at launch. Yeah.
10:14 No, it's not great, but listen, it's
10:17 they're they're launching fast and you
10:19 know, they launch it first and fix it
10:21 later. So, I mean, they also the the
10:24 other [ __ ] they did at launch was they
10:26 deprecated 40 without really telling
10:29 anyone. They just said, "Here's five.
10:31 Four is gone." And everyone that relied
10:34 on four to be their AI girlfriend, all
10:36 of a sudden chat GBT just didn't work
10:38 anymore. So, yeah, it was a bit of a
10:40 disaster. Um, but it's it seems like
10:43 it's better now. When are we going to
10:44 get some GPT erotica? So, so that is um
10:49 apparently one of the things OpenAI is
10:51 working on right now is an age
10:53 verification system. And if you're older
10:56 than 18,
10:58 you can get the uh it it's funny they
11:01 they're calling it the adult version of
11:03 of uh GPT that can do erotica. I don't
11:06 care so much about erotica, although
11:07 it's fine. is um like what
11:13 like like there's a lot of times like if
11:15 you just want to do like a Halloween
11:16 story.
11:18 It's just it doesn't like the the
11:20 subject matter so it it doesn't let you
11:22 work like there's a lot of [ __ ] you want
11:24 to do that that gets slammed by safety
11:27 guard rails that I think throttles
11:29 people from from using these things
11:31 fully. Thoughtful Thursday. We'll see.
11:35 We'll see how thoughtful it's going to
11:36 be. Um, let me look at something here
11:40 without sharing it. See if it does
11:42 anything interesting.
11:46 Not really.
11:49 Huh. Interesting. All right. Um,
11:54 let's see. Let's get a few more people
11:56 in here. We'll we'll get a few more
11:57 people in here, Brandon, before we talk
11:59 uh we talk stuff. Uh, if you're on the
12:02 YouTube there, if you're over on
12:03 YouTube, do me a favor. Subscribe.
12:06 I'm about 200% certain that even though
12:09 even the adult mode won't be able to do
12:11 anything when it's a a broad image
12:15 model. Yeah, that's probably true.
12:18 The reporting mcon from Brandon was
12:20 excellent. Yeah, if you haven't seen it,
12:23 so if you go to Brandon, if you'd pop
12:25 the AI salon uh what you call it up
12:28 there, the uh banner
12:31 um if you go to the salon.ai AI and and
12:35 just click join our community if you're
12:36 not a part of it or just go to the
12:38 community site which
12:40 community.thesalon.ai
12:43 um
12:45 in in the general in the community feed
12:48 which is like the second feed down when
12:50 you get into the community. Brandon did
12:52 a wrap-up of Mecon days 0, one, and two
12:57 um that are just really excellent. Like
13:00 he really, you know, captured what was
13:02 talked about and what was important
13:04 about it and you got good pictures and
13:05 things like that. I'm heading next week
13:08 to TED AI. Uh and do not expect this the
13:14 quality of reporting from me that you
13:16 got from him. Uh but it's really good.
13:18 So if you haven't seen that yet, it's
13:19 worth checking out.
13:21 Um, Grock is like, "The channels in the
13:24 hotel are unscrambled." It totally is.
13:27 Please start singing.
13:36 You know what we should do?
13:43 I know what we're gonna do.
13:49 uh soon.
13:53 Okay, here we go.
13:56 [Music]
13:58 All right, Sununo Studios here. We're
14:02 going to go create.
14:05 We're going to go audio. We're going to
14:06 go record Tik Tok pin. I'll be at at
14:10 OpenAI on Monday. About 150 folks from
14:12 higher ed. Oh, very cool. That's
14:14 awesome.
14:15 Uh yeah, if anyone's in San Francisco
14:17 next week, I'm I'm there Tuesday,
14:20 Wednesday, Thursday.
14:22 Um okay, so let's
14:26 Somebody told me to sing. Here we go.
14:32 Damn it. Hang on.
14:38 Um
14:50 [Music]
14:53 All right, we're going to turn that into
14:54 a song.
15:05 I think he meant with your guitar. I
15:07 know what he meant.
15:10 Now taking requests. Okay. lyrics. Uh,
15:14 you make them for me. Uh, write full
15:16 song. Uh, describe what you want. Um,
15:19 uh, silly man. Silly man sings. Silly
15:24 man sings. Silly man sing, I think, is
15:27 better.
15:29 All right.
15:31 So, let's see. He wears a hat too big.
15:33 He's got socks that don't match his
15:34 shoes. That's good. We'll select that
15:36 option. Styles, we'll go um goth rock.
15:42 Gothrock
15:44 um anthem.
15:47 All right, here we go. You wanted me to
15:51 sing? I'm singing, baby.
15:55 Uh
15:57 that uh is silly.
16:03 Mr. K, the educator Mr. K, who's got the
16:06 uh the uh YouTube channel. He looks like
16:10 he's going to get a pretty good gig here
16:12 shortly, which is exciting.
16:15 Um, here we go.
16:17 [Music]
16:30 [Applause]
16:35 He's got socks that don't match his
16:38 shoes
16:40 only.
16:44 [Music]
17:00 All
17:09 right. So, there you go. If you haven't
17:11 done that before, you should go do that.
17:13 All right,
17:15 producer Brandon, why don't you hop up
17:17 on stage here?
17:20 >> Hello.
17:20 >> And hello.
17:22 How are you? You must be exhausted,
17:25 first of all. Yeah.
17:28 Here.
17:31 There we go. We'll give you the We'll
17:32 give you the big floor.
17:33 >> Wow. All right.
17:34 >> Yeah. Right.
17:37 You should reframe it.
17:38 >> Yeah.
17:38 >> We can see your your AI salon logo a
17:41 little better.
17:42 >> Yeah. There you go.
17:43 >> Bend your camera down. Can you bend your
17:45 camera down a little or is it fixed?
17:48 >> Oh, it's
17:50 You have to see the the slop. It is my
17:54 office, but there we go. There you go.
17:56 Nice. All right. Beautiful. Beautiful.
18:00 Um, yeah. So, so, so when was it
18:02 started? What's today? Thursday. It
18:04 started Tuesday, right?
18:05 >> Tuesday.
18:06 >> Yeah. The, uh, the workshop session
18:08 started out on Tuesday. So, I was
18:10 hanging out, uh, getting access badges
18:13 and all that stuff. Uh, meeting up with
18:15 people. Met Gwen uh, from the salon who
18:18 was also there. We hung out for a little
18:20 while.
18:20 >> And Wednesday was the big day. Wednesday
18:22 was the the kind of all day uh,
18:25 conference. And uh it was it was a good
18:27 turnout. They were saying in uh 2022
18:30 this conference had about 200 people
18:32 coming to it and just over the past
18:34 three years it has exploded and uh there
18:37 were upwards of 2,000 people there uh
18:39 this week.
18:40 >> Wow. And I, you know, Kyle, I don't know
18:42 how many tech conferences you've been
18:44 to, but traditionally we see uh
18:47 depreciating value on attendance over
18:49 the course of the week uh by the last
18:51 night after people are going to the
18:52 happy hours and, you know, they've
18:54 missed all the keynotes and everything.
18:56 I'm just going to sleep in.
18:58 >> It was standing room only this morning
19:01 at 8 a.m. for the third day, which was
19:03 just mind-blowing to me.
19:04 >> Wow.
19:05 >> Um, so a lot of agency folks hanging
19:08 out. um a lot of uh entrepreneurs and
19:11 people who are just trying to figure out
19:13 AI and figure out what it means for
19:15 business. And it was interesting I was
19:17 talking to some of the agency leads and
19:19 you think everybody's got this figured
19:20 out. Uh and the agency folks all kind of
19:23 came in with at least the ones I talked
19:24 to came in with this idea that they were
19:26 going to take back lessons for their
19:29 clients. And a lot of them said, you
19:31 know what, I we're getting stuff for us.
19:33 Like this is this is gold for us to
19:36 figure out how to use AI. Uh, and then
19:38 obviously we're going to take that those
19:39 learnings back to our clients. But it's
19:41 interesting to see how fast it's
19:43 evolving that even the folks that you
19:45 trust with your marketing dollars are
19:47 still the first person learners for this
19:50 right now.
19:51 >> Yeah. Yeah, that that makes good sense.
19:52 Um, I just want to um Vicki said, "Dang
19:55 it, I thought Brandon said 30 minutes
19:56 late." He did say that because I told
19:59 him that and then I decided not to go to
20:01 Whiskey Club tonight. So then I unsaid
20:03 it. So sorry if you're late. That's on
20:06 us. That's on me. So anyway, carry on.
20:11 >> Yeah. But um you know, a lot of great uh
20:14 cool I met folks from Hey Gen there. I
20:16 met some digital first advertising
20:19 agencies. I met people who are doing
20:21 some really cool stuff.
20:22 >> Hang on for a second on those. On the
20:24 digital first advertising agencies, did
20:26 you talk to them at all about like their
20:28 business model? Are they doing value pro
20:30 pricing? Are they doing time and
20:32 materials? Are they like ex agency
20:34 people? Did you how how far into it did
20:36 you get with them? Yeah. So, for the
20:38 ones that I've talked to, and
20:40 everybody's got a different take on it,
20:41 but the ones that really caught my
20:43 attention were the ones that were trying
20:44 to democratize digital agency by
20:47 twinning people who are famous in the uh
20:51 marketing space and offering their
20:53 services uh on a monthly
20:55 subscriptionbased
20:57 where they've actually got the humans
20:59 behind the scenes prompting AI twins to
21:03 give you marketing advice.
21:04 >> Got it. Got it. Got it. That's
21:06 fascinating. Okay, cool. Awesome. All
21:08 right.
21:08 >> Yeah. So, Paul was there um Paul Ritzer
21:12 uh and his crew and they were very
21:13 generous with their time. Uh spent a lot
21:16 of time talking with us and you know the
21:18 the overall theory is that it is no
21:21 longer a question of if, it's a question
21:24 of how. Uh it's not a question of if
21:26 it's going to disrupt the industry, it's
21:28 a question of how fast can you adapt to
21:30 that disruption. And that was kind of
21:32 the overarching theme we heard again and
21:34 again. And um you know for all of the
21:37 focus on AI, it was really a human-
21:40 centered conversation. A lot of the uh
21:44 folks focused on what do the humans need
21:48 to know? So it wasn't I mean there was a
21:50 little bit of prompting. Um one of the
21:52 presenters uh Jeff Woods had a really
21:55 cool prompting uh technique. He called
21:57 his cry method which is uh context uh ro
22:02 uh interview and um t whatever t stood
22:07 for um uh but it is an idea that you're
22:13 wanting the AI to ask you questions
22:18 about what it needs to know to answer
22:20 that role. And uh yeah, it was overall
22:24 everyone was super friendly and um it
22:27 was in Cleveland, so that was nice. You
22:29 know, it was a lot of people from in
22:31 from out of town, so we got to showcase,
22:33 put our best foot forward uh in
22:35 Cleveland. Uh it's a great place to host
22:37 an event. And um Paul actually said
22:39 that, you know, he had the option when
22:41 they were planning this thing. Do we go
22:42 to New York? Do we go to Chicago? Do we
22:44 go to Austin or San Francisco? So
22:46 there's just something authentic about
22:48 having it in Cleveland uh where we have
22:51 more of about the community. Um so yeah,
22:55 it was it was a really cool experience.
22:57 >> Okay, cool. Mary Mary uh Paul's
23:00 Brandon's talking about uh the marketing
23:02 AI institutes make their annual
23:05 conference that he just got back from.
23:08 Um, what for the I I I know you were
23:12 having AI listen to the keynotes, but I
23:14 assume you were listening as well. What
23:17 are are there three big takeaways from
23:19 the things that you watch that that are
23:21 that stick with you? Like what are the
23:24 insights that made you sort of [ __ ] your
23:26 head or feel like something's different?
23:28 Or was it more about the people you
23:29 talked to?
23:31 >> Um, so I it's a little bit of both. I
23:33 mean, the conversations were fantastic
23:35 and everyone was so open and so willing
23:39 to share where they were at with their
23:40 AI journey.
23:42 >> Yeah. Figure it out. Right.
23:45 >> Exactly. You know, it was it was very
23:47 much a, you know, an open comfortable
23:50 environment. No one was gatekeeping. No
23:52 one was trying to sound smarter than
23:55 they are. Everyone was just, it takes a
23:59 village. It takes a community. and
24:01 everyone was just a very willing
24:03 participant. Um, a lot of interest in
24:05 the AI salon, both from potential
24:08 partners to potential speakers to just
24:10 people who, you know, saw the shirt and
24:11 they're like, "Hey, what's the AI
24:12 salon?" And so got to talk to people
24:15 about that. But, you know, in terms of
24:17 mainstage takeaways, um, there was a
24:20 woman from McDonald's, she's their chief
24:22 digital analytics officer, and um, she
24:25 had everybody in the crowd raise their
24:26 hand and say, "How many of you have an
24:28 AI strategy?" And like 80% of the people
24:30 in the room raised their hand. They go,
24:31 "Okay, cool. How many of you have an
24:33 internet strategy?" Like everybody kind
24:35 of put their hands down and looked at
24:36 her. You know, the point was you don't
24:38 have an internet strategy. You just use
24:40 the internet to market.
24:42 >> Yeah. Exactly. Oh, that's great. That's
24:44 great. Yeah. That's Well, that's the
24:46 thing is like people had had, you know,
24:49 chief chief internet officers for a long
24:51 time or, you know, chief worldwide web
24:53 officer and then it just gets absorbed
24:55 and now we're seeing the same thing,
24:56 chief AI officer. So fascinating
25:01 >> and I I think that the biggest thing
25:02 that you know uh Paul and company kept
25:06 coming back to on the stage is that it
25:08 you know it's humans first and you know
25:10 the humans are the marketers AI is the
25:13 tool and they really drew that line
25:15 pretty firmly in the sand. Uh where this
25:18 wasn't a tech conference we weren't
25:20 talking about prompt engineering we
25:22 weren't talking about how to
25:24 >> model Yeah.
25:26 >> Exactly. Yeah. We were talking about
25:29 storytelling and um one of my favorite
25:32 presenters was and I want to get him on
25:34 for the uh AI salon here, maybe even
25:36 Festivist u PJ Ace um started a digital
25:40 first advertising agency that uses VO3
25:45 uh as its base model to build these
25:47 commercials and build these marketing
25:49 assets. Uh and now Sora too because he's
25:52 already disrupting his own industry. But
25:54 he shared with us one of the first prime
25:57 time network spots that his agency
25:59 produced and I've got it pulled up here
26:01 if you want to take a look at it. It he
26:03 couldn't believe Disney because it was
26:05 it aired during the March Madness and uh
26:08 NBA Finals inside of on ABC. He's like,
26:11 I can't believe we got Disney to approve
26:13 this crazy commercial that we made with
26:15 AI. Uh so what you're about to see
26:18 >> I wanna I want to tee it up. I just
26:20 wanna I just want to put a pin in
26:22 something. the the focus that you saw,
26:24 the fact that they they said, you know,
26:26 it's it's humans first. This isn't a
26:28 technology conference. That was what we
26:30 organically experienced last year during
26:33 Festivus. That we had 34 different
26:35 speakers over 24 hours and not a single
26:38 speaker like we didn't we didn't The way
26:41 Festivus works is if you're invited, you
26:43 talk about whatever you want. And and 34
26:46 out of 34 speakers, no one led with
26:48 technology. they were all talking about
26:50 humans and changing the mindset and
26:53 things like that. So, it that that's a
26:56 reassuring thing to me, Brandon, that
26:58 you know, it didn't go there and there
26:59 wasn't the tech track versus this that
27:02 it really is just about us dealing with
27:03 this. So, speaking of that, yeah, let's
27:05 let's see this this spot. Um, and uh
27:08 that's very cool.
27:10 >> Yeah. And so, I'm going to go ahead and
27:13 here I'll stop pull your screen shown
27:15 and and there there we go.
27:19 So everything you're about to see here
27:20 was generated with V3.
27:23 >> Indiana going to win, baby.
27:24 >> We're in Florida asking people what they
27:26 put their money on. I'm all in on OKC.
27:30 >> Indiana got that dog in them.
27:32 >> Will egg prices go up this month?
27:34 >> I think we'll hit $20. How many
27:37 hurricanes do you think we'll have this
27:38 year?
27:41 [Applause]
27:43 >> Kelshi lets you legally trade on
27:45 anything anywhere in the US. Casey.
27:49 >> Oh, Casey.
27:56 >> My favorite was how how many hurricanes
27:59 do you think we're going to see this
28:00 year?
28:04 So, yeah, all all three days are
28:06 recapped on uh the AI salon inside of
28:08 the feed. And um yeah, it was a lot of
28:10 fun. Can't wait to go back next year and
28:13 um you know hoping to have some of those
28:14 guys come back and talk to us a little
28:16 bit more about their uh chain of craft.
28:18 >> Beautiful. Fantastic. Cool. Well, thank
28:21 you for that. I know you're exhausted,
28:22 so I appreciate you coming up here and
28:24 uh and yeah, so um so that's the things
28:27 that's one of the things that I want to
28:28 do more of in 2026 is as these events
28:31 come up, get people from the salon out
28:33 to these events and and uh you know,
28:36 learning and meeting people and uh you
28:40 know, ex expanding their community and
28:42 expanding the salon community. Um I
28:44 think it's a it's a big big deal. Um so
28:47 thank you. Um what was I going to say? I
28:50 I mentioned last night that I had a
28:52 meeting today about Sydney uh the
28:55 musical and with some potential folks
28:57 that you know could potentially do
29:00 something with it. That meeting went
29:01 very well. Uh the way these things work
29:04 if you're if you're not used to the
29:06 professional
29:08 professional creative development world,
29:11 you have you kiss many frogs. There's
29:13 lots and lots of conversations before
29:14 stuff happens. Uh but it was a really
29:16 good meeting. So that was that was
29:18 exciting. Um, I'm trying to think what
29:21 else. I want to go play with runway
29:24 because they have this new thing called
29:25 apps. I again I I said this last night
29:30 and you know the the the way I tend to
29:34 take the focus of this channel is
29:37 largely driven by instinct. I'm not I'm
29:41 not a planner. Uh, in case you in case
29:44 that wasn't clear. If you're new here,
29:46 my name is Kyle Shannon. the AI learning
29:48 lab and we'll we'll do some stuff
29:50 tonight. If anyone has any questions or
29:52 thoughts about AI, I'm happy to chat. Um
29:56 but but uh but one of my instincts right
29:59 now is that
30:04 video that we just saw that that played
30:06 on national TV during March Madness that
30:08 was just created with VO clips
30:13 the the creatives who are on the
30:15 sideline that hate AI and that are angry
30:19 at AI and it's not real creative and it
30:21 can't be creative.
30:24 That commercial, whether you like it or
30:26 not, was not really an AI
30:29 commercial. It was a commercial from an
30:32 agency that had an idea to say funny
30:34 things about things going on, you know,
30:37 in Indiana, I guess, or wherever it was.
30:41 It was the vision of the creative
30:42 director that had the idea that happened
30:46 to use a tool like Sora rather than
30:49 going and filming people doing that just
30:51 used a tool like this stayed committed
30:54 to the fidelity of the idea which is a a
30:57 term that I'm I'm stealing blatantly
30:59 from Liz Miller Gersfeld who's my
31:01 co-host in the AI salon.
31:04 She talks about doing work and being
31:06 committed to the fidelity of the idea
31:08 and I love that. I I I love that
31:10 concept.
31:12 Um,
31:14 so you see a commercial like that and
31:19 the the the the
31:23 feeling that I'm having is very very
31:25 reminiscent very reminiscent of when you
31:30 first saw worldwide web URLs on TV
31:34 commercials or when Brian Gumble and
31:37 Katie Kirk were like, "What's that a
31:39 with the circle around it? What is this
31:41 internet anyway where websites and
31:45 internet and web addresses what's this
31:47 http
31:49 colon line line thing
31:55 right like people didn't know how to
31:57 talk about them they didn't know where
31:58 to put them was an event when you saw a
32:02 URL on TV or on a billboard
32:05 um it it it there was we just didn't
32:09 have a place to to put it in context
32:13 because it had never existed before. I
32:16 think these kinds of videos and things
32:18 like Sora's, you know, new Tik Tok like
32:22 app that that's got all these memes. you
32:24 can really easily make a meme of
32:25 yourself or other people kind of lives
32:28 in this strange place where it's not
32:31 going to be the final form but we're
32:33 going to be able to look back at it and
32:34 say ah that's the moment when you know
32:37 ease of using someone's likeness started
32:40 was the Sora app that was really the
32:42 beginning of it um or or you know that
32:46 commercial that we just saw in March
32:47 Madness I don't know if that was the
32:48 first AI commercial to go national but
32:51 you know it was a big one right so so
32:53 people are going look back at that and
32:54 go that that was the moment.
32:57 The other thing that is striking me and
33:00 and and I guess why I'm talking about
33:02 this is
33:04 it's it's my gut that we need we need to
33:08 be exploring
33:10 these video tools more.
33:14 Not that large language models and
33:17 multimodal models and chat GBT and
33:19 application development is not
33:21 important,
33:22 but I think that we're going to very
33:24 quickly
33:26 transition from
33:28 these tools making videos and and short
33:32 video clips
33:34 to these tools being worldbuilders
33:38 and and so creating 3D worlds that you
33:41 can enter. I saw a a a tweet right
33:44 before I came online tonight. Um, a guy
33:48 is building a Sora based world that
33:52 every time someone creates a new image
33:55 in Sora, I guess within his app, it
33:59 basically adds a node to this world that
34:02 you can explore.
34:04 And so like people are already starting
34:06 to take these video generation tools,
34:09 especially the ones that generate things
34:10 quickly, and they're doing creative
34:11 things with them.
34:14 Runway has has already said openly that
34:17 that Runway is not a video company.
34:20 They're a worldbuing company and and
34:22 that that one of the next things coming
34:24 from them is a worldbuilder.
34:27 And so that starts to look like you can
34:29 create a world you can enter. you can
34:31 create a set that you can move a camera
34:34 around and have complete consistency,
34:37 you know, no matter what's in that world
34:39 because you're moving a camera around an
34:40 existing, you know, world.
34:43 Um, you're going to be able to
34:46 dynamically create video games.
34:49 And then I just I also have this
34:51 sneaking suspicion that there's going to
34:54 be a new kind of communication that
34:56 comes out of this where you will enter
34:58 information worlds and and not just like
35:02 information visualization, but I I don't
35:04 know some some sort of you might enter a
35:07 news world where you can go to a bunch
35:09 of different news stations and they
35:11 they're all talking about news in
35:12 different way. I I don't know. I don't
35:14 know what it is. It's just my instinct
35:16 is it's important. We should pay
35:17 attention to it. Um,
35:20 so yeah. So with that, I figure we'll go
35:23 play with a little video. I also, um,
35:26 yesterday,
35:28 um, VO3.1
35:30 came out, and apparently one of the
35:34 settings you can do is you can set the
35:36 video for 25 seconds. And so I thought
35:39 it might be fun to to have Chat GBT
35:42 write a prompt that is a a single prompt
35:47 for 25 shots in a 25 second video. So a
35:51 shot per second. Um and see how it does.
35:54 Maybe we'll start with that. That's kind
35:55 of fun. Look how Tik Tok has evolved.
35:58 Yeah, exactly. Tik Tok is now full-on AI
36:01 AI augmentation, right? Can you imagine
36:03 creating a world that serves a specific
36:06 function? concerts that go beyond a
36:08 stage. That That's exactly what I'm
36:10 thinking. Side hustle is is
36:15 the minute the minute that you have
36:20 instant world creation
36:23 and and within that world, you can you
36:26 can also vibe code, right?
36:30 So, so imagine
36:33 creating a world that is nothing but
36:35 video games and then people can come in
36:38 and everyone can vibe code their own
36:40 video game. You set it up in such a way
36:42 that basically, you know, you can you
36:44 can take a token and you can play a game
36:46 or you can take 10 tokens and you can
36:48 make a game and then we're going to
36:50 split how much you make on the game and
36:52 and everyone comes in and invent invents
36:54 video games and it's a dynamic infinite
36:58 video arcade. I don't know. A video game
37:00 arcade that that could be a thing. I'm
37:03 busy trying to make Sora 2 put me on
37:06 on stage with Ace Freely. Very nice
37:08 Shane Saw. Good. Good luck with that.
37:11 Um, or a business presentation that was
37:14 a PowerPoint and now we have movies and
37:16 [ __ ] Yeah. Or or a business
37:18 presentation where you invite people
37:20 into the presentation.
37:23 There was a uh there was a play in New
37:25 York City in the in the late 80s and
37:29 early 90s called Tony and Tina's
37:31 Wedding.
37:33 and Tony and Tina's wedding. It was a it
37:36 was a it was a theater piece that was
37:39 held in a in an upper east side or upper
37:42 west side, I think, in an upper west
37:44 side brownstone. So, it was a three or
37:46 four story big building. Um, and the you
37:50 you walk in as the audience and and
37:53 you're getting ready for Tony and Tina's
37:55 wedding. And the play was the audience
37:59 can go to any room they want and and all
38:02 of the actors are playing the characters
38:05 that they're going to play during the
38:06 wedding. And like you could go into the
38:08 room where the where the bride is
38:10 getting ready or you could go hang out
38:12 with the groom and his buddies or you
38:14 could go, you know, where the caterers
38:16 are making the food. And so so your
38:19 experience of the play was 100%
38:23 dependent on where you went and and it
38:26 it was part improvisation, part scripted
38:29 and it culminates with a wedding which
38:31 you get to go sit in and watch and
38:33 participate after having heard all the
38:35 stories, you know, of of what went on.
38:39 So imagine a business presentation being
38:41 like that where you're like, "Okay, the
38:44 annual report this year, you can walk
38:46 into it and and right now we're going to
38:49 walk in and we've got we've got, you
38:52 know, the CEOs in this room and we've
38:55 got the six different executives that
38:57 head up our our six different divisions.
38:59 They're all going to be in these
39:00 different rooms. You can take all the
39:02 time you want. There's gonna we're going
39:03 to be doing this live for the next two
39:05 hours and so you can ask us questions
39:08 and look at charts and graphs and pull
39:10 them off the wall and what right why not
39:14 and if you don't think that
39:18 like like Brandon was talking about the
39:20 the ad agency that's this all digital
39:22 agency where they're creating um virtual
39:26 agency employees that are based on
39:28 famous agency people.
39:31 That's like scratching the surface of
39:33 the kinds of companies that are going to
39:35 be created to to take these capabilities
39:39 and stitch them together in ways that
39:41 none of us could have imagined before.
39:44 So, with that, um, let's let me let me
39:49 jump over to Flo for a second here
39:54 and share my screen so y'all can see.
40:00 Um,
40:02 [Music]
40:05 okay.
40:07 V3 fast.
40:14 Let's see. I don't see
40:18 where you can change timing.
40:25 [Music]
40:29 Let's go to Gemini.
40:32 Maybe it's there.
40:35 Create video.
40:44 No, I don't see.
40:48 Does anybody know where VO's timing is?
40:55 I can also imagine this being a
40:57 monumental win for Neurospicy Non-verbal
41:00 Friends. Absolutely. I hear lawyers
41:03 licking their lips. Yeah. Sorry, you you
41:07 didn't go into the room where we were
41:09 doing the insider trading, Bob.
41:15 A coworker said, "I'm sick and tired
41:17 of.com this and.com that." Yep. That was
41:21 that was just just like you have people
41:23 in your life right now going, "Could you
41:25 just not talk about AI anymore, Kyle?
41:28 It's really annoying." Yeah, we I heard
41:30 all that in the 90s because I was in the
41:32 theater and I like I would come into
41:35 rehearsals for a play and I'd be like,
41:37 "Oh, this you should see what we're
41:39 doing at with this web stuff." And could
41:41 you shut up about that.com stuff, Kyle?
41:43 You dumb dumb.
41:48 Um, I don't know how to I don't know how
41:50 to change Oh, wait. Let me go let me go
41:53 back to flow. Maybe I need to reload the
41:55 app.
42:00 Reload.
42:02 New project.
42:06 Expand film. No newir action. Create new
42:09 expander. Cinematic.
42:13 What?
42:15 Create new expander.
42:18 Oh, wow. Oh, these are kind of styles
42:20 within
42:22 That's kind of cool.
42:26 Yeah, you lose them if you
42:34 supporting support ending soon. Oh,
42:37 okay.
42:42 Huh?
42:46 Oh, you know where it could be.
42:51 By the way, if you're new here and if
42:54 your question is, are we just going to
42:56 watch an old guy try to figure out where
42:58 something is? Yeah, that's pretty much
43:01 the channel.
43:05 Aistic studio.google.com.
43:07 Follow along, won't you? You can be
43:09 clueless, too.
43:12 My job is to make it okay for you to
43:14 feel clueless. Okay. VO 3.1.
43:20 Um,
43:23 make changes. Select API. A A A A A A A
43:25 A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A API key
43:26 required for video.
43:31 Okay. I'm exhausted. I'm exhausted.
43:34 We're going to go to runway.
43:37 Okay.
43:38 Um,
43:43 share this tab.
43:47 All right. Fantastic.
43:50 Let's see what we've got here.
43:56 This is a video we did of Ann Murphy's.
43:58 Oh, did we do videos of these? I don't
44:00 think we did. We can make a video.
44:04 Woman in a beach pullover sits in a
44:07 lounge chair on the beach with her salt
44:10 mask warming her face.
44:15 All right, we'll do we'll do this one.
44:16 We'll turn it into a video.
44:19 All right. So, we'll go um
44:24 woman
44:26 hums
44:29 a jy
44:32 little tune
44:38 while a seagull
44:41 poops on her shoulder.
44:45 Is an here?
44:47 Sorry I'm late. Just finished a speaking
44:50 gig. Cool. Congrats.
44:54 Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool,
44:56 cool, cool. Beautiful. All right, so
44:58 we're going to generate this into a
44:59 video.
45:01 All right, so let me show you what we
45:03 got going here.
45:07 Um,
45:10 so Runway now has these thing things
45:12 called apps.
45:15 So you can change the image style. So
45:18 let's try that. Let's change the image
45:19 style. Um rough expression. Oh, this is
45:23 cool.
45:26 Can I change?
45:29 How do I use it? I thought he was the
45:33 expert. Isn't he supposed to be teaching
45:35 us how to do that? Let's see. Use as
45:38 reference. There we go. See? You see
45:41 what I'm saying, people? All right.
45:43 apps. Change image style.
45:47 All right, that didn't work. Shut up.
45:51 I dragged and dropped it. Okay, here we
45:54 see you see you see people
45:57 magazine collage. So, we're going to
45:59 turn an into a magazine. No, let's turn
46:01 Let's turn this into a storyboard.
46:04 All right. Generate. Can I No. Why did
46:09 this uh
46:11 u make this a storyboard? Oh, please
46:16 switch to credits mode. Okay.
46:18 Okay. So, I don't need a prompt.
46:21 All right. So, we got this image. We're
46:23 going to turn it into a storyboard.
46:24 Bang. And then that's going to be down
46:27 there. Beautiful.
46:29 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
46:33 All right. Now we should have a video of
46:36 Ann humming here and then we can play
46:39 with these apps.
46:41 So it looks like one of the apps is
46:43 there was an issue on our end. The any
46:45 used credits will be refunded. Generate
46:47 again. Let's get rid of that.
46:52 93%

47:14 tune, right?
47:20 Why is it got no audio?
47:30 It vomited on her shirt.
47:39 All right. And the that thing's not
47:42 working at all. All right. Let me go
47:44 find a different video because that's
47:45 kind of a crappy video. Let's find a

48:56 lab. I came in here to learn and I feel
48:58 like all I'm doing is watching someone
49:00 else try to figure something out. I
49:03 could do that on my own. I know, but
49:05 you're not on your own, are you? You're
49:07 here with other people and they're

58:56 beautiful. a leather.
58:58 >> Okay. So, I want I want you to take a
59:00 look at something here.
59:03 So, notice that at the end of the video,
59:07 Dr. Jay has got
59:10 uh, you know, a little card with her
59:12 email on it, and I've got the the join
59:15 the salon thing.
59:17 When you make your your cameo character
59:22 in the Sora app,
59:25 you can go into preferences
59:27 and then there's a thing called
59:29 description, I think,
59:32 and you can put in a system prompt
59:35 that tells you that tells the system
59:38 what to do. So, let me go to settings,
59:42 Cameo Access, and then
59:45 if I go to Cameo Rules,
59:50 see here.
59:56 Uh, it's not letting me edit it, is it?
59:59 Oh, yes it is. At the end of the video,

1:08:14 I type my prompts outside of Sora and
1:08:16 copy paste. That's a great idea.
1:08:20 That's a really good idea, Brandon.
1:08:23 Let me close. I wasn't sharing anyway,
1:08:25 so it didn't matter.

1:09:42 Cut to
1:09:50 at Kyle Shannon
1:09:52 saying
1:09:57 cheesily cheesily,
1:10:00 "Hey,
1:10:02 who are you calling a dog
1:10:07 [Laughter]
1:10:12 They both laugh.
1:10:16 All right.
1:10:19 I think cheesily is a word.
1:10:24 Okay. Now, let's go back here and we're
1:10:28 going to go sora.
1:10:33 And then we're going to go bang. There's
1:10:35 our prompt. Bang. All right, we're
1:10:38 going.
1:10:41 Oh, big hair and big eyeliner. I missed
1:10:42 the big eyeliner. I think it'll get it.
1:10:44 I think it'll I think it's going to make
1:10:46 you like a a good solid 70s weather girl
1:10:50 trolop
1:10:52 with the with the loud 70s dress.
1:10:56 All right, we'll come back to that. Um,
1:10:59 anybody have any questions, thoughts?
1:11:02 What's the best app to watch this stream
1:11:04 on a phone? Yeah, probably probably Tik
1:11:07 Tok just because the you can chat with
1:11:10 the other people in there easily. Um,
1:11:12 but you can watch the stream on on the
1:11:14 YouTube app.
1:11:25 I think I did, but it crashes when I The
1:11:27 app crashes when I open it. Yeah, it's
1:11:30 we're still in, don't forget people, as
1:11:34 exciting as all of this tech is, we're
1:11:36 still in the janky phase of AI.
1:11:40 I agree. I flopped between and settled
1:11:42 on Tik Tok. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Tik Tok.
1:11:45 Just for vertical stuff like this, it's
1:11:47 better. And I try to keep it a decent
1:11:50 experience with the black bar and stuff
1:11:52 like that, though I fail miserably much
1:11:54 of the time.
1:11:56 Um,
1:12:02 who else do we have here? Oh, Watsy.
1:12:07 Nice. Ricky Bacon. Is that who that is?
1:12:10 No. Berwick.
1:12:15 Hi, Justine.
1:12:30 Um, one thing I've noticed is that the
1:12:33 Sora videos that I do, um, that I do
1:12:37 post onto Tik Tok are getting shitty
1:12:41 views, which makes sense. They're
1:12:43 probably looking for the watermark or
1:12:45 something like that or the name of the
1:12:46 video.
1:12:49 If I really wanted to take this
1:12:50 seriously, what I'd probably do is
1:12:52 generate stuff in Sora. I heard
1:12:55 somewhere that you can download them
1:12:56 without the watermark right out of the
1:12:58 Sora app, but I I haven't experienced
1:13:00 that. That's that's not what I I see.
1:13:03 But if you take the videos out of Sora
1:13:06 and and move them into something like
1:13:07 Cap Cut and sort of recaption them
1:13:09 there, then you might you might get
1:13:12 better views. You might not get
1:13:13 throttled as much unless they're looking
1:13:16 for the watermark. Um,
1:13:21 all right. Let's go see if this thing is
1:13:23 ready. Are you ready? No, it's not
1:13:25 ready. Let's We can play other videos
1:13:28 here.
1:13:30 No, we can't.
1:13:33 Oh my god, this app. It's so bad. Oh,
1:13:37 I'm not even sharing it, am I? Am I? I
1:13:40 am. Wait. Okay,
1:13:45 close that down.
1:13:57 All right. Fantastic.
1:14:05 [Music]
1:14:13 Nah, I'm just going to watch a video and
1:14:15 be done.
1:14:26 All right. So, tomorrow, actually, let
1:14:28 me go full screen here while we wait for
1:14:30 that thing to render.
1:14:33 So, tomorrow we've got office hours at
1:14:35 11:00 a.m. If you're an AI salon
1:14:38 mastermind, we've got the mastermind
1:14:41 meeting right after that at noon. That
1:14:43 meeting is ultimately going to move, but
1:14:45 tomorrow it's still at noon mountain
1:14:47 time.
1:14:49 Uh, and then tomorrow night we got
1:14:51 Friday night date night. Although I do
1:14:53 have to go do some gallery duties, so
1:14:55 it's probably going to be 8:30 or 9
1:14:57 tomorrow night mountain time. And you're
1:14:59 like, I'm on the East Coast. That's
1:15:00 awfully late to start a Tik Tok. I know,
1:15:05 but it's Friday night date night. So
1:15:07 what are you doing? What? You got a
1:15:09 date? No, you come hang out with me. I'm
1:15:12 your date.
1:15:15 This is where your life is led.
1:15:21 Uh, you said tonight. I meant tomorrow
1:15:24 night. Yes.
1:15:27 What Brandon said. Um, just so you know,
1:15:32 in case it wasn't clear, I started a
1:15:36 fast today.
1:15:40 So, I haven't really eaten that much, so
1:15:42 I'm a little lightheaded.
1:15:49 Okay, cool. Um,
1:15:52 let's go.
1:15:55 I would think that our video is ready by
1:15:57 now.
1:16:04 Nope.
1:16:09 Mm-m.
1:16:25 [Laughter]
1:16:30 Can't hear. Oh, yeah. Because I'm not
1:16:32 sharing it.
1:16:36 Did I tell you I was starting it fast?
1:16:41 Oh, I'm sharing the wrong kind of wrong
1:16:44 kind of share. Hang on.
1:16:52 >> Chip fried and cola. I'm Kyle Shannon
1:16:54 and this this is fizzy crisps. Real
1:16:56 potatoes dropped into real cola, then
1:16:58 crisp to a sweet smoky pop. Listen to
1:17:00 that fizz. The bubbles caramel taste of
1:17:02 chip fried and cola. I'm Kyle Shannon
1:17:04 and this this is fizzy crisp.
1:17:06 >> This is fizzy crisps.
1:17:09 You need to eat some caramel.
1:17:11 >> I do.
1:17:12 >> Existence.
1:17:15 >> That's impossible.
1:17:19 >> What in the world? They prompted you
1:17:22 into existence.
1:17:25 >> That's impossible.
1:17:28 >> What in the world? They prompted you
1:17:32 into ex
1:17:34 Oh, we're done.
1:17:37 Hang on. We're gonna reload. I think
1:17:41 we're going to reload. We're not going
1:17:43 to reload. We're gonna crash, aren't we?
1:17:46 Wait, we reloaded. Here we go. Killer is
1:17:51 still at large. Now, here's Mimi with
1:17:53 the weather. Thanks, Kyle. We're looking
1:17:55 at a soggy evening, folks. It's raining
1:17:57 cats and dogs out there, and by
1:17:59 midnight, we could pile up an inch and a
1:18:00 half across the metro. Keep those
1:18:02 umbrellas handy, but tomorrow morning,
1:18:04 the sun will poke back out. killer is
1:18:05 still at large. Now, here's Mimi with
1:18:08 the weather.
1:18:09 >> I don't I don't know why it didn't use
1:18:11 my voice,
1:18:16 but nice nice 70s go-go dress.
1:18:23 Look at the hair. That's solid.
1:18:27 Uh-oh. We've crashed.
1:18:32 >> Thanks, Kyle. We're looking at a soggy
1:18:34 evening, folks. It's raining cats and
1:18:36 dogs out there. And by midnight, we
1:18:38 could pile up an inch and a half across
1:18:40 the metro. Keep those umbrellas handy.
1:18:42 But tomorrow morning, the sun will poke
1:18:43 back out.
1:18:45 >> All right. Imagine when the when these
1:18:47 things don't suck.
1:18:50 The we're looking
1:18:52 >> I would say my experience right now.
1:18:55 That's pretty funny, isn't it? My
1:18:57 experience right now. Uh oh. What did I
1:19:00 do? The hell did I do?
1:19:03 There we go. Um, my experience right now
1:19:06 is that the um
1:19:10 creating something in Sora, I'm getting
1:19:13 about a a one in three hit rate. And I'm
1:19:15 not really trying that hard, but it's
1:19:18 like I have to do at least three videos
1:19:21 to get one that's usable. And then it's
1:19:23 kind of halfass usable. So, it's
1:19:27 probably more like five or seven to one
1:19:29 to get something that's actually decent.
1:19:32 just rerun it with the same prompt and
1:19:34 it'll be completely different. The thing
1:19:36 that's driving me absolutely baddy is
1:19:38 that I'm trying to render these things
1:19:41 as um as wide videos and and it's just
1:19:45 not doing it. It's making like just
1:19:48 weird aspect ratio mistakes.
1:19:52 Uh the the thing crashed again. So,
1:19:54 we're we're good. We're done.
1:19:57 We're done. All right. I'm going to get
1:19:58 out of here. So, tomorrow, Friday, uh
1:20:01 Friday, Friday night date night, so
1:20:03 11:00 a.m. Mountain time is AI office
1:20:06 hours. So, you can find that on my
1:20:07 LinkedIn channel. And then tomorrow, uh
1:20:11 and then after that at noon mountain is
1:20:13 the AI salon mastermind hangout.
1:20:18 And then tomorrow night, probably 8:30
1:20:21 or 9 is Friday night date night.
1:20:25 Want to see one more fake VO3
1:20:27 commercial? As long as I don't have to
1:20:28 go to the Sora app. Is it on the salon?
1:20:37 >> Oh, you're going to show it. Great.
1:20:39 >> I tried everything for my depression.
1:20:42 Nothing worked.
1:20:44 >> Every day felt heavy. I felt trapped.
1:20:47 >> Then I tried Peppermint.
1:20:48 >> Our prescription helps your body secrete
1:20:51 a special pheromone that attracts
1:20:54 puppies. I took the pill before bed and
1:20:57 when I woke up, there he was, the love
1:21:00 of my life.
1:21:01 >> The pill does not target depression
1:21:03 directly, but we found that it's really
1:21:05 difficult to be depressed when cute dogs
1:21:07 show up at your doorstep. I used to feel
1:21:10 so empty, but now I feel joy and mild
1:21:13 concern how a pea stain got on the
1:21:15 ceiling. My puppy listens twice as good
1:21:18 as my ex-husband and only climbs into
1:21:21 the lap of half as many of my friends.
1:21:23 He chewed up my Bible and pooped in my
1:21:26 good chair. But I'm happy for the first
1:21:29 time in years. Looks like a rat, barks
1:21:33 like a demon.
1:21:36 But he saved my life.
1:21:37 >> I named him Earl. He follows me
1:21:40 everywhere and farts in his sleep. Just
1:21:43 like my first husband.
1:21:45 >> Puppine. For when your therapist says,
1:21:48 "Maybe you should get a dog.
1:21:52 Beautiful.
1:21:54 Um,
