WEBVTT

1
00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:09.679
Now we've reached today, or now
we've reached Now it's fifty plus and I'm

2
00:00:09.720 --> 00:00:13.000
James AUGERI here and jog Media,
and I was going back in time fifty

3
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:16.039
years, forty years, thirty years, twenty years, ten years, and

4
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:19.359
now we've reached twenty twenty three,
so we're still in it. It's the

5
00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:23.039
end of the year as I'm recording
this, So we have a whole different

6
00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:26.199
list of time. I have different
lists of stuff than I normally die.

7
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.120
I've changed it around for some of
the others, and here we're going to

8
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:34.439
cover a couple of different things.
Now, normally I show a picture of

9
00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:37.399
something from a time period. Well, this is me now, so there's

10
00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:39.359
no pint. I'm the picture.
It's me. It's what I look like

11
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:45.240
right now. This is the most
recent of me. So this will serve

12
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:53.000
as the latest we're going to do. We're gonna start off with I've been

13
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:56.359
having fun doing these. I think
everybody for really paying attention to I have

14
00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.560
a screen over here. I have
a screen over here looking off to the

15
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:03.439
side. If you're not listening to
this, you're watching I'm looking I have

16
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:06.319
to read the list over here.
It's easy for me to do it over

17
00:01:06.319 --> 00:01:08.519
here. So I'm doing that.
So one of the things we're gonna talk,

18
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.920
I do list of what's going on
and give be a time capsule of

19
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:14.480
the time. So it's gonna be
a time capsule. Twenty twenty three.

20
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:19.480
We're coming out of a pandemic.
Basically, I am coming out a really

21
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:23.079
hard year where I lost my stepdad, Moses. It's our first Holia is

22
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:27.640
without him. Almost lost my mother
actually, and so she's still recovering,

23
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:34.200
almost lost a couple of aunts.
They're recovering everybody. Everybody is recovering stuff

24
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:38.519
for you always say that Moses past. And so I am working full time

25
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:44.959
again doing organizing and the media stuff
JLJ Media. I will be celebrating fifteen

26
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:49.120
years in Los Angeles because I can't
believe it'd been in January. That's coming

27
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.680
right with this, can't believe it. And I'm here and I'm trying to

28
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:55.280
do some weight. I'm big,
I'm trying to do some weight. I'm

29
00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:00.400
pleaning health from a doctor a couple
weeks ago. Here I am here,

30
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:05.200
I am no I bet you love
no. Here I am so now that's

31
00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:07.519
Good's That's where I'm at now.
So you can go back to all the

32
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:08.479
other ones and see where I tell
you where I'm at then, So that's

33
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:13.159
where I'm at now. Okay.
So these are the top ten albums on

34
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.159
the US Billboard Hot two hundred chart, and half of them I don't even

35
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:20.120
know who they are. So it's
this is how different my life is compared

36
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:25.719
to all the other decades I did. And number ten Utopia by Travis Scott.

Swifts be recording her first six albums and

48
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.199

so those are doing really well too.

49
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:30.360
She is affecting the industry very much. So it's kid in mine her speak.

50
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:32.759
Now Taylor's Versions number eleven, just
a get little side notes, so

And her red Taylor's Version is at number

52
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:45.439

And by way, we read those

77
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:57.720
to go to my favorite dessert is
ice cream. Here are America's top ten

78
00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:01.160
dessert ice cream flavors in twenty twenty
three. Write something totally different. I

79
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:05.160
tell you guys. Number ten is
Neapolitan. If you know what Neopoltan is,

80
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:09.759
it's vanilla, chocolate and uh,
strawberry, all in a row,

81
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:13.560
and they're right next to each other, you eating together. I'm okay with

82
00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:17.399
that. I'm not a hugely Apoltan
fan, but it's fine, but I

83
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:23.800
I yeah. Number nine is moose
tracks. I you know what this is.

84
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:28.160
So it's supposed to be vanilla ice
cream with peanut butter cups and fudge.

85
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:34.160
Okay, I could possibly do that. Number eight is strawberry, which

86
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.959
I think is interesting. Strawberry is
one of those things that I don't anybody

87
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.519
like. In caseion, I'll order
a strawberry shake just because, like,

88
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:44.519
why not, let's go. Number
seven is birthday cake, which sometimes there's

89
00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:50.439
too much for me. Sometimes it's
fine. And number six is buttered pecan,

90
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:57.120
not my thing. I will pass
on that. Number five is chocolate

91
00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:00.959
chocolate chip cookie dough. You could
go it's very pop No it is,

92
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:06.800
yeah, no, it is.
Number five is mint chocolate chip. No.

93
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:11.879
Sorry, Rber four is mint chocolate
chip. Number three one of my

94
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:16.920
favorites cookies and cream. Oh,
I just that's my favorites. Number two

95
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:20.480
is chocolate, which is so funny. Is I'm getting a new appreciation for

96
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:26.319
chocolate ice cream. I've been,
really, I've been getting chocol ice cream

97
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:29.639
recently in my rotation of ice creams. I'm like, I like chocolate ice

98
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.759
cream just by itself. Doing anything
to it. Oh, I don't put

99
00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:36.319
your sauce on it. We put
any chocolate topping. It's too much for

100
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:43.519
me, But I like it.
What okay? And so I got I

101
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:51.040
got so I was like, just
like okay. And then number one is

102
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:58.480
vanilla. Of course though it's just
it's simple and easy. I like vanilla,

103
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:03.480
like vanilla, vanilla bean tho's are
fine. My favorite ice cream is

104
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:07.560
cherry ice cream, cherry vanilla or
black cherry scream, anything with cherry's in

105
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:15.199
it. That's my favorite ice cream. Yes, okay. These are the

106
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:20.720
top ten baby names. I'm always
curious and I would do girls first and

107
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:28.240
then boys. So these are top
ten girl names. Number ten is Evelyn,

108
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:35.240

that is funny. Number two is

119
00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:31.720
we have some biblical names in here. Of course, James is number twelve.

120
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:35.080
It's that's fire me. And there's
enough James is in the world,

121
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:41.960
trust me. Nothing's running around now. These are the ten most watched Netflix

122
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:45.840
shows of twenty twenty three, and
and and I and I always wonder when

123
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:50.559
it comes to streaming, how to
make these determinations. And it's and so

124
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.279
for you guys at home to feel
I'm learning this, it's ours viewed.

125
00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:00.000
So it's how many hours everybody collectively
watches. It makes the most popular,

126
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:03.759
and so these are top ten.
Number ten is flu Bar season one,

127
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:09.200
which I actually watched the first half
and I finished it. It's Arnold Schwartzenegger's

128
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:16.519
new series. It's really funny and
it's a comedy action series. I've ran

129
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:20.720
across it by accident, and I
love the episodes I saw already really good,

130
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:26.559
so checked that I got finished.
I got finished up. Number nine.

131
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:33.039
Number nine is Ginny and Georgia Season
one from twenty twenty one comedy drama.

132
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.039
I have friends who've done the music
for it, so shout out to

133
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:41.440
Ben and them who done the music
for it. Number eight is Outer Banks

134
00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:48.679
season three. Outer Banks is an
ongoing conflict between two treasures seeking teenage groups

135
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:52.159
in a coastal town along the outer
banks of North Carolina. And so I

136
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:54.279
don't I yues, So I guess
that's what I don't. Never see the

137
00:10:54.320 --> 00:11:01.840
show in my life, don't even
know it numbers all Number seven, I

138
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:09.720
haven't watched it yet. With my
favorite telenovelas, but now Rena del Cer

139
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:15.320
season three or twenty twenty two Kate
duck Steele's My Girl. I watched the

140
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:18.960
first couple of seasons of it,
of the show they did, they try

141
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:24.039
to do an American version of this
wasn't the same, but Loriento Store is

142
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:28.039
so good. Kate Duck still is
the bomb. It's in all Spanish.

143
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.000
I speak Spanish. I can understand
it, so I love it and I

144
00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:33.399
think it's just it's just it's my
favorite. I don't watched them three yet.

145
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:41.399
I know it's on my list,
so IRY watched that. Number six

146
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:46.240
is You season four with Penn Bashley. I'm wanting to check out this series

147
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:50.120
or it's a trip now, so
one day I'll catch up on it.

148
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.799
It's supposed to it's a trip.
It's a psychological thriller. Number five is

149
00:11:54.919 --> 00:12:01.759
Queen Charlotte, a Bridgerton story.
I didn't watch Bridgerton, but it's these

150
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:07.279
are all successful. Of course.
Number four is Wednesday season one. So

151
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:11.080
it's interesting because it's like it's a
spin off of the Adams Family. It

152
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:13.159
took one of the characters and made
her the lead. But I think it's

153
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:16.120
always interesting, like they did the
Velma series. They did Velma from the

154
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:20.240
Scooby Doo Gang. I love I
love stuff like that, like let's think

155
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:22.919
I take a character and make a
series around that person. I love it.

156
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:28.159
I don't watch it yet, so
but I heard it's it's really good.

157
00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:33.559
Number three is The Glory Season one. It's a South Korean drama.

158
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:37.919
I know that that's very big.
Number two is Ginny and Georgia's season two.

159
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:45.039
So this series is huge, huge. So, and the number one

160
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:52.240
series on Netflix is The Night Agent
Season one. It's an action thriller that

161
00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:56.080
follows FBI agent Peter Seller who finds
the throwing the mass conspiracy is running a

162
00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:01.559
mole at the highest level. So
it's a conspiracy thing my entire life.

163
00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:07.759
That's cool, Okay, Sean Ryan, somebody I love the Shield so it

164
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:11.600
say says I had no idea,
Gabriel Baso, is it it? Yeah,

165
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:16.200
okay, I've check it out.
So those are the top ten most

166
00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:18.159
viewed, and they say they're done
by men, and so for example,

167
00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:24.480
this number one, it was watched, viewed, eight hundred and twelve,

168
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:30.360
one hundred million hours viewed. That's
how I do it. So that's that

169
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.519
was watched. Well, we're done
with our experiment. We're done with our

170
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.879
experiment. This was a lot of
fun and a lot of you have come

171
00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:46.799
to me with ideas on other things
I could do. I was show called

172
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:50.639
have you Heard of Me? It's
audio only. Check that out because I

173
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:56.080
do spotlight certain random things from this
seventy to two thousand, so check that

174
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.759
out. You may like that one. But I may do some more series

175
00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:05.200
like this in twenty twenty four pick
up fee or a year or something.

176
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:07.799
If you have suggestions, please tell
me. Someone asks you to do something

177
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:11.840
in the soap world, possibly like
maybe every ten years about the soaps and

178
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:16.000
the state of soap, So everybody
who knows this do this was fun for

179
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:18.919
me, but also now it's turning
into something compastingly a little bigger, which

180
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:22.559
you know, when you do things
are fun, that's what happens. So

181
00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:24.600
we'll see what happens. I'm James
Love Junior. I am fifty blessed.

182
00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:30.279
I'm heading into twenty twenty four.
I'll be fifty five years old and starting

183
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:33.960
the next ten years of my life. So twenty thirty three will be the

184
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:37.720
next one we can do this if
I decide to do this again, if

185
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:43.440
I'm still around by then, who
knows. I'm turning fifty five going into

186
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:48.600
the year, and I'm hoping that
next year is better for all of us.

187
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.320
The world is in a crazy place
and I'm wishing for a peace and

188
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:56.200
