| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the rush hour. Your daily dose of pop culture for your rush hour ride. Buckle up and enjoy the drive with your host, stand-up comedian Dave Neal. Good afternoon, everybody. On this hump day, Wednesday, April 16th, 2025. I'm Dave Neal, and I got all your stories for your rush hour ride home. |
| 0:22.2 | Can you believe it? We made it over the hump. Good for you. This was a tough one, wasn't it? |
| 0:26.4 | Well, on today's episode, I'll be discussing Starbucks. They've made new changes, and trust me, |
| 0:30.8 | it's not the lowering of the prices. And then the Mr. Beast experience is getting a lot of bad media attention after it was called |
| 0:39.7 | the fire fest of Mr. Beast in Las Vegas. I'll share that. And firefighters crashed a romance |
| 0:46.4 | novel convention. And boy, did people get thirsty. They had to hose them down. I'll share |
| 0:52.2 | that story. Hilarious story. Plus, Blake Lively made the Time Magazine influential people of the year list. |
| 0:59.4 | And Baldoni's like, what? Really? She's been very influential in making me go broke. |

| 1:25.7 | So it's getting ugly out there. I'm going to try my best to sanitize |
| 1:30.7 | these stories so they don't bum you out. That's my goal is you can leave here having all the |
| 1:35.3 | information you need, but don't want to have to move to Canada. So anyhow, and not that they're |
| 1:40.3 | going to let you anyway. All right. Build that wall. They built the wall up north for us to not go in. |
| 1:45.2 | All right. I got all these stories and more. It's all coming up right now on The Rush. |
| 1:49.2 | And by the way, there's a lot of games you have to play here on the old YouTube channels. |
| 1:53.7 | So just so you know, we have been covering the Justin Baldoni Blake Lively case and we'll have an update in this video. But I just wanted to share you guys all of my |
| 2:01.9 | content. When I don't mention Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni in my thumbnails, I get only like |
| 2:08.6 | 20% of the views of my other content. And that's a real problem. And I don't blame my audience. It's actually |
| 2:14.7 | because YouTube goes, oh, if I share, you know, if I share |
