– [Voiceover] B. asks, what
do you think of McDonald’s response to Burger King’s
Peace Mcwhopper idea? Seems like they missed a big opportunity. – DRock, before I answer this, are you running the B
roll that we did before the show? – [DRock] Yeah. – To start the show. – [DRock] I can do it right now. – No, start start the show with it. I think it’ll be interesting. People are gonna be, oh, Staphon’s now. Right, Staphon. Graduating to editing the show. Start with all that B roll all black and white before
it even goes into it, because then people understand why I screwed up the intro,
because the transition was awkward. I, well first of all you’ve seen a lot of our banter on this. I’m with you India. I thought it was I think my answer came through in the black and white that started the show which is I think McDonalds, first of all I like competitions so I like that McDonalds kind of zing Burger King right back. Burger King tried to win the game by being like, like there was a, McDonalds was in a very tough spot. I also love what Burger King is doing in marketing right now. I think they’re being very clever. Sonic is one of our great clients at VaynerMedia. I’ve got that hat on. I think it’s super fun to watch. I think I’ll answer this. We are clearly living in interesting times where Burger King can make a micro site to make this annoucement, and McDonalds official
answer is in a Facebook post in sentence form. If you haven’t realized that communication has changed forever in our society, please let this be a moment where this is how companies that
are dead heated compet, I mean Pepsi, Coke, like Burger King – McDonalds. It doesn’t get more than that. I think it just depends on
what side you wanna be on. There’s the people that always wanna be on the serious side, which McDonalds wins. There’s people that think
the world is way too serious and you need a little humor. I think more people sit on that other side hence why I think the most
popular reply to McDonalds and upvoted. For me, for me, I like the way they went with it, but I can see every angle of it. I like that Burger King did it. I like the way McDonalds, I just want them to fight. Like, if you really want me, listen, but you have to understand. I’m giving you my answers
to me as a person. I love competition. I live for companies fighting with each other and
trying to beat each other and jockey and chess moves. I love it, the sport of it. Just like politics has become a sport and entertainment which has a lot of sad
variables around that. I think business is about to go that way, because everybody can communicate, and it’s all in public and all this stuff. I’m just enjoying watching. Pass me the popcorn.
