[02:04:47] S0: Yeah? Oh, yeah. [02:04:48] S1: In the comments to this post, there's someone boasting about a fractionalized dinosaur that they're trading. You can gamble on them. Sotheby's just sold Jody a Nanotyrannus, a smallish friend of the T Rex for $47,000,000. The high estimate was $9,000,000. It went for five times what they were predicting. Incredible. [02:05:09] S0: Somebody actually sent this to me over the weekend Independently. And I was looking at it being like, that feels low Nine? For something that [02:05:17] S1: At nine, it felt low to [02:05:18] S2: you. Or at [02:05:20] S1: 47. [02:05:20] S0: It's because whenever I hear about anything [02:05:22] S1: Yeah. [02:05:23] S0: Like any any apex predator dinosaur, it's always like, you know [02:05:26] S1: I mean, I think I I think we agree it's a steal at 47,000,000. They were giving it away at nine, but, you know, the the... They're they're leaving room for price appreciation for the next buyer. So the buyer that bought this at 47, they're looking to get out of it in the 9 figures. Right? [02:05:43] S0: Yeah. I mean, they may have already sold it. [02:05:44] S1: They might have. They might have. So, Tyler, you have something on the joke? [02:05:48] S4: Yeah. I mean, this one is, like, a bit smaller than Nano Tyrannus. So this is only, like, 20 feet long. But... If you think about Gus, if you remember in July Yeah. Yeah. That was the... That that was 50,000,000. [02:05:57] S1: Griffin picked that one up?
02:05:57 · John Coogan, Tyler, Jordi Hays
[02:05:57] S1: Griffin picked that one up? [02:05:58] S4: No. That was Mystery Body. You're thinking of Apex. Okay. That was $20.24. 24,000,000. Okay. So... No. $20.24. It was 44,000,000. [02:06:05] S1: 44,000,000 for a 24 foot dinosaur? [02:06:08] S4: No. No. No. That was in 2024. [02:06:09] S1: Okay. In 2024. Yeah. So Rob Petrozzo has a breakdown of why this particular dinosaur, despite being the Nanotyrannus, sold for $47,000,000. He says it's because the low estimate was very inviting. It got a lot of butts and seats at the auction. A lot of people are oh, I'm gonna pick up... I'm gonna pick this guy up for 9. This is the steal of the century. They sit down. They get excited. They can't stop bidding. Next thing you know, they're looking at a $47... $47,000,000 bill from Sotheby's, and they were going home with that dinosaur. Second, this is interesting because he says it's the perfect size at 20 feet. And I love that he has opinions about the right size of of Tyrannosaurus rex skeletons or Nanotyrannus skeletons because [02:06:57] S0: Clearly is a replacement for the statue in the entryway of a dramatic, you know Yeah. Dramatic entryway of a of a of a [02:07:07] S1: Yes. A larger So even even in a modern mansion, going brontosaurus, 60 feet tall, that's on... That's not dual. [02:07:14] S0: Yeah. You don't wanna have a... You you need to use the, like... [02:07:18] S1: Yeah. It's a... You don't [02:07:18] S0: wanna have to pop it out the top.
02:07:18 · Jordi Hays, John Coogan, Tyler
[02:07:18] S0: wanna have to pop it out the top. [02:07:20] S1: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Like, architectural digest is not calling you if you're if you're if you're brought to source a scraping the seal. Right? You wanna... I'm saying [02:07:29] S0: some people probably have to cut a hole. [02:07:31] S1: Oh, cut a hole in the dome. [02:07:33] S0: Yeah. The neck and head actually [02:07:35] S1: Yeah. [02:07:35] S0: Go above the house. [02:07:36] S1: But that might that might ruin the roof lines. You might wind up on Yeah. [02:07:39] S0: It's right. [02:07:40] S1: Zillow gone wild [02:07:40] S0: for that. Yeah. [02:07:41] S1: Yeah. You might be sort of in McMansion territory if you if you do that. It's a nightmare. So this is the perfect size of 20 feet, and this is going in a home, in my opinion. Rob says, this is this is a home diner. [02:07:53] S0: I think in LA Not I think in LA, the code is, like, you can only have, like, 18 foot ceilings Wow. Now. [02:07:59] S1: And that's because of dinosaur collection? Well They they wanna curb it? [02:08:03] S0: Yeah. They wanna curb it. [02:08:04] S1: They wanna curb it. [02:08:04] S0: It's a bad take off. [02:08:05] S1: Because less buyers that'll drive up the price. So whoever wrote that law probably has extreme exposure to the dinosaur market. Right? So they wanted to drive up the price. How can they drive up the price? Pass a law that makes it hard to keep 20 foot diner... Dinosaurs in your home. There's less buyers, less supply, more demand. [02:08:24] S4: Gus was only 12.5, so you could fit that in 18 foot house.
02:08:24 · Tyler, John Coogan, Jordi Hays
[02:08:24] S4: Gus was only 12.5, so you could fit that in 18 foot house. [02:08:28] S1: Okay. So that's an LA dino right there. Yeah. You got an LA dino. We got some breaking news. [02:08:34] S0: Breaking news. Breaking news. President has hit Truth Social and shared, when will The Wall Street Journal star start calling artificial intelligence a very bad and inaccurate name SI, super intelligence? The name which virtually everyone else is using or soon will be. In short order, we will be officially banning the term AI slash artificial intelligence in all relevant documents and everything else due to its inaccuracy. Thank you. [02:09:02] S1: I might have a collector's edition Wall Street Journal here because this might be the very last Wall Street Journal that ever features the acronym AI. It says Meta unveils $95,000,000,000 AI plan and also the case for AI Armageddon. And we might not see this in the pages of the Wall Street Journal anytime soon. I'm still I'm still a fan of MI. I like machine intelligence. It's not super. It's not artificial. It's just a different thing, different nature of intelligence. Really good at math. Not so good on the street smarts sometimes. But we'll see. We'll see where it goes. You think you think he's successful? He does love renaming things. That seems to be the big big piece of the legacy. So we'll see. We'll see if The Wall Street Journal chooses to switch the editorial guidelines to SI.

I don't I don't think people are gonna start loving it because it has a new name. Yeah. I don't think that's a solution. [02:10:05] S1: Might confuse it. You know, if you take SI and you translate it from Spanish to English, people will think that you're not writing SI. You're writing [02:10:18] S0: Yes. [02:10:21] S1: Trying to do button and it's not working. Brutal. Yeah. Yeah. It's not working. [02:10:28] S0: Oh, brutal. Well, that's a good place to end it. [02:10:30] S1: Oh, well. It's supposed to be yay for c s I. Anyway, thank you so much for tuning in to TBBN. Toledo's five stars in Apple Podcasts and Spotify. I deserve this one today. Also, the production team bears some of the responsibility here, but
