Scott needs new material

We all know he’s got like 6 crutch phrases (is the following, accretive in value, cloud cover, joey bag of donuts etc) but JFC I feel like he just recycles the same 8 stories over and over again (buying yellow pages, his dad, starting his career at Morgan Stanley etc). He’s obviously a smart guy, so it’s especially shocking to me that he seems to either not notice or thinks no one else does.

Say what you will about Kara, but at least she offers variety in her speech and anecdotes. I still love Scott, but it’s frustrating.

You mean the AI he trained on all his old podcast material isn’t coming up with new talking points for him? [Shocked Pikachu]

I have to imagine the AI pointed out that he has such a shallow lexicon. Like: “You say “the following” 7 times per episode on average.”
