| 0:00.0 | Sup you beautiful bastards. Hope you've had a fantastic Tuesday. Welcome back to the Philip |
| 0:04.5 | DeFranco Show. Buckle up, hit that like button and let's just jump into it. And the first |
| 0:08.6 | thing we're gonna talk about today is a situation around the Nelk Boys, who if you don't know |
| 0:12.8 | who they are, not the biggest deal. Yes, it is a story about them, but it is also a larger story |
| 0:16.8 | regarding creators, their responsibility, platforms, and COVID. So the Nalk Boys, if you don't know, are massive YouTubers with over 5.7 million subscribers. |

| 0:57.6 | Last week, they shared videos of parties that they started. Right, for example, this one on your screen |
| 1:01.5 | right now comes from Illinois State University. Just an absolutely massive event. Everyone as |
| 1:05.4 | close as possible, not a mask in sight. And according to New York Times reporter Taylor Lorenz, the group's actually been traveling across the country to college towns. |
| 1:11.6 | And you know, this outright stupid and dangerous behavior, it's gotten them into some trouble. |
| 1:14.6 | Following those videos from Illinois coming out, we saw a lot of people including creators |
