That was epic when the 2 brothers got eliminated. I kinda liked the guy, too bad he got eliminated in the next episode.

Interesting. I actually liked when he came over to the two big money guys and had that conversation.

He's like, are you discussing remorse, or justification?


That was great... "Which R are you discussing"... 😂

Anyone else had no idea who mr beast was before watching that show?

I had to google it when he said he was using his own money for the grand prize, building the city and all the other prizes...

I knew who he was, had watched a bit of his stuff.  

 

He's fairly likeable.

Haven't watched the new show but I've seen many of his videos. My favourite is the well building one in Africa.

Not shared by the people suing him. https://www.bbc.com/...es/ckgn8d04kdko

 

These types of personalities and shows have a shelf life. They need to keep getting bigger and more outrageous to retain their audience. At some point they either reach max outage or someone gets killed and then it ends. Hope he has a good financial advisor.

When you employ thousands and have a huge enterprise there will be lawsuits.

Now do Walmart. I read somewhere that Walmart entertains over 4,000 new lawsuits per month.

From employees?

Employees and public.

 

Mr. Beast makes millions, of course former staff are mad.

^ It saddens me that in this day and age people view workplace assault or sexism as just a function of having employees.

I’m really enjoying the hype men on Beast Wars! Great sidekicks.

Yeah, it’s kind of silly if you look up the show on Wikipedia it says critics received it poorly. If you only googled the show you’d think it was a flop.
Maybe that was based on the first episode only? But now it’s canon.

Anyway, the internet makes better content than MSM. That much is confirmed

Decent episode total.  A few surprises.  Two of the four cuts not surprising, really.

Neither do I.

Also, he can use Hawaii-grown cocoa.

Cost of Goods Sold.... So not just cocoa. Can't just turn on a dime with suppliers. War Speed will eliminate small businesses, not billionaires.

What’s not to understand. All his imported inputs and surely some of his domestic ones are going up.

There is essentially no Hawaiian cocoa. Niche market, but if you get to Kauai, don’t miss a trip to Lydgate Farms!
