1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: I'm always asking questions, and the reason why is because

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,280
the fund begins when you start researching for answers, such

3
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,320
as Area fifty one in Nevada, a well known place,

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,279
right do people hang out there? Twenty four to seven? Plus?

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,039
How has streaming changed our local cable companies? My name

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,440
is Errol. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. That

7
00:00:18,559 --> 00:00:21,679
means I stand on the sidelines into nothing but watch, listen, study,

8
00:00:21,719 --> 00:00:24,399
than activate. I happen to call it the daily Mess,

9
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,960
a chronological walk through in everyday world. Yeah, it's my

10
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,000
morning pages. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we

11
00:00:30,039 --> 00:00:32,200
as people tend to throw things to the side because

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,399
we're going to deal with it later. Yeah, not really.

13
00:00:34,799 --> 00:00:36,840
When a subject derives inside of me, I know it's

14
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,079
time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,

15
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,479
but by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This

16
00:00:43,759 --> 00:00:47,840
is the daily Mess. For decades, Area fifty one has

17
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,280
been that one place people flock to to get a

18
00:00:50,359 --> 00:00:53,240
view or a better understanding of space aliens right here

19
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,079
on Earth? Do people hang out at Area fifty one

20
00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,280
twenty four to seven? The answer is no, people don't

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,359
hang out there. It's a highly secured and restricted military

22
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:07,359
facility located in the Nevada Desert. Area fifty one is

23
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,599
off limits to the public at all times. It's protected

24
00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:14,760
by signs, motion detectors, and armed guards. Tourists and curious

25
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,760
visitors have driven down the Extraterrestrial Highway, but they don't

26
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,719
stay for too long. It's more of a photo op

27
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,760
than gone. In twenty nineteen, a viral joke called storm

28
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:27,480
Area fifty one brought people together, but it turned out

29
00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:29,959
to be more of a LoveFest than a protest. Well,

30
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,120
what about the military? Do they stay at this famous

31
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,239
place on Earth? The answer is yes. Military and government

32
00:01:35,239 --> 00:01:38,719
personnel work there around the clock. Real people do not,

33
00:01:39,159 --> 00:01:42,560
mainly because there's nowhere to really hang. The purpose of

34
00:01:42,599 --> 00:01:45,879
Area fifty one is to test and develop experimental aircraft.

35
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,480
The UFO sidings that so many people talk about, it's

36
00:01:48,519 --> 00:01:52,719
probably the US military testing new things out. Hey, coming

37
00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:55,439
up next. We're all streaming, but what is it doing

38
00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:00,280
to our local cable companies? Hey, thanks for coming back

39
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,120
to the daily Mess. It's no secret anything within the

40
00:02:03,159 --> 00:02:06,959
definition of broadcasting is going through huge changes due to

41
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,199
digital streaming. I was shocked to hear about how hard

42
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:13,599
it's been on cable companies many because streaming in your

43
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:16,360
home doesn't just happen on its own. We need the

44
00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:19,560
power of the Internet, which the cable company is providing,

45
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,879
and the cost of that is pretty high right now.

46
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:25,360
But when you pull the lens back, Cable companies are

47
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,719
currently facing a struggle due to streaming services. Cable TV

48
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:32,400
use is expected to drop again this year to only

49
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,759
thirty five percent. In twenty twenty three, cable companies lost

50
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,120
five point nine million subscribers. This means AD revenues are down.

51
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,840
It'll be twenty billion dollars below normal by twenty twenty seven.

52
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:50,560
This means cable channels are not providing original programming. They're

53
00:02:50,599 --> 00:02:53,520
relying on reruns to draw people to their flat screen.

54
00:02:54,159 --> 00:02:56,879
This has led to bundling. We've all seen it. Disney

55
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,120
and Hulu together, they're hooking up, just like radio and

56
00:03:00,159 --> 00:03:03,360
the US government. Restructuring is the only way to stay

57
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:06,840
above water. I'm Marrow, and that's the daily mess.
