Sop you beautiful bastards. Welcome back to the show. As you know, I am Philip DeFranco,

and we're here to talk about news that matters as well as news that shouldn't matter,

and you can be the judge of each one. Let's just jump into it.

The first thing that we're going to talk about today is some Philip DeFranco woke up and decided to be a hater news,

because let's talk about this stupid story that people have been trying to get me to talk about for about a week now.

High-end fashion brand, Balenciaga launched these shoes for $1,850.

Something so stupid, even the people dumb enough to buy Balenciaga clothes were like, that's ridiculous.

Which, just so there is no confusion, I am saying yes to even all the influencers that, that posts their grams with it.

If you buy Balenciaga, you're fucking stupid.

And I'm glad that the money is being separated from you.

And no one can change my mind on this. You're gonna tell me this basic ass pair of leggings because it's Balenciaga and Adidas.

Oh my god, it's $895.

Yeah, because you made that shit on the cheap and your margins were so fucking big. You could give it to massive, massive influencers to make it go like, oh, this is aspirational clothing.

I want this. It says something about me. So many people can't have it.

You're telling me this shirt, also $895?

That's like a year's salary for the kid that made it.

But all of that is just hater to Franco's way of saying these $1,850 shoes,

they're just more apparently stupid than the whole fucking thing.

But how about this? I'm gonna take my hater hat off for a second.

If you're someone that looks at Blenciaga and you're like, oh my God, I fucking want that. Hey, I get it. I get it. Like social media and the fucking marketing machine,

it's, it's warped my brain too. Not right now, Lindsay. We got to remind ourselves,

that's like the point of everything for you to just keep giving your money to other people.
