Transcript

These are my three favorite Nepo Baby products from 2023. First up, we got the Nepo Baby fridge tier. And I have to say out of all the products that have been millennialized at this part of late stage capitalism, a fridge was pretty low on the list, but here we are. The The two interesting observations that I have about this fridge is that the ad seems to play into this worst. Like, we have to vibe out every aspect of our life, even the fridge. We can't just have a normal fridge. It has to slap. The second is this dichotomy of taste that speaks to our desire to be somehow undefinable. Right? You can see bottles of Modelo sitting next to gear or some natural wine. So there's this mixing of high and low to sort of be unpredictable. Next up, we got the $3,000 bicycle from District Vision, and I have to say that escalated pretty quickly. We all knew that District Vision has never really been cheap, but we also didn't expect them to make a jump from, like, we sell tier Sherpas to oh, yeah. We sell $30,000 bikes too. Have they sold any yet? I don't know. Last but certainly not least, how could we forget mister Porter's $9,000 backgammon board? And I have to say this one is leaving us both embarrassed and broke for buying our own boards on Amazon for $40. And the funny thing about this product is that I know the exact type of person who would buy this, and I equally have no idea the type of person that would buy a product like this. Either way, looks dope. $9,000 kind of dope.
