0:00.0	So, you beautiful bastards. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show you daily dive into the news,
0:05.1	and we have a lot of news to talk about today. Starting with...
0:07.7	So the battle against Ticketmaster by people who use Ticketmaster now includes everyone from
0:12.6	Billy Eilish to now Ethan Klein. And while there's a laundry list of reasons why one may

0:21.2	that the H3 podcast is doing this summer. They're doing it at the Greek theater in Los Angeles,
0:25.0	and while tickets are selling well. On a live stream yesterday, Ethan noted two frustrations with Ticketmaster,

1:09.3	market-based pricing based on supply and demand.
1:11.9	Or in other words, surge pricing.
1:13.6	But the company is saying that the goal is to give fans fair and safe access to the tickets
1:17.3	while enabling artists and other people involved in staging live events
1:20.6	to price tickets closer to their true market value.
