Remember Movie Pass?

All the movies you wanted for just nine bucks?

I'm Bridget Todd, host of There Are No Girls on the Internet.

And this season, I'm digging into the tech stories we weren't told.

Starting with Stacey Spikes, the black founder of movie pass who got pushed out of the company he

built.

Everybody's trying to knock you down and it's not going to work and no one's going to like it.

And then boom, it's everywhere.

And that was that moment.

Listen to there are no girls on the internet on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

There's a wonderful and exciting world out there when we discover that we don't need TV to entertain us. He said, A-N-U-N-Urath. Elis Duran and the Morning Show. Hey, y'all, I was talking to a friend the other day. She said, she's having one of the day. She said, you know what? I'm going to go out after work. I just get a girl. I said, just get a girl I said oh really who you're going with she said no no I don't want to go with anyone I'm just going to go to the bar I'm going to sit down I'm going to have a drink she said she said I don't get it I talked to her the next day can't a girl just have a drink in peace no one they said no one would leave her alone. People kept bothering her. Guys were trying to hear her up. Totally. Oh man. If you're a woman, can't you go out to a bar and just sit there and have a nice quiet drink on your own? No. Uh-uh. By yourself? That never happens. No. If people see a single woman at a bar, they just assume that she's either been stood up on a date or she's having a bad day and desperately needs them to come over and cheer her up. You can't do it. It's such a pain in the butt. Women, if you want to drink alone, you got to do it at your apartment or your house. Right. Or the library. Yeah. Nobody drinks at the library. I don't think. Yeah, you want to get a cocktail at the library. But yeah, I was thinking about that, about how, you know, if you're a woman, you just want to get a, just want to have a drink. Can't a girl just get a drink? Leave me alone. Don't talk to me. Stop making assumptions. Those are also the same people who say, hey, why don't you smile? Shut up. Don't tell me to smile. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Thanks for controlling my life. Anyway, so if you see someone out by themselves, there's a good chance they don't want to hear from you. No offense. Just leave them alone. Exactly. So anyway, can't our girl just get a drink? I love that question. Wow. Also, you know what? We're talking about secrets companies have, and they don't tell you. For instance, when you call customer service, they put you on hold, you hear music. They can sometimes still hear you. That's crazy. It's good to know. They know. But they don't tell you this.

It's like their secret.

What other secrets were we learning?

Like kickbacks for doctors in hospitals and.

So they're saying doctors at some hospitals are rewarded for how many patients they turn over to surgery.

So always get a second surgical opinion from a different medical group if it sounds a

little bit extreme for what your problem is. Wow. Interesting. They have all kinds of stuff I know.

In Target, did you mention this? Nope, not yet. If you hear an employee say hard lines four over their

walkie-talkie, put everything you're stealing back that's their code is that true

a pair i don't work at target but i would love it if somebody told us they also say that walmart diamonds
