Episode 324 - Platinum Plus Preferred

from Here's What I Don't Get Hosted by Here's What I Don't Get

Tim is back from the hell of the lone star state and we're talking about, Loyalty Programs Fanbaiting Are you earning points in the app today? What about your loyalty card? Do you want to share your email for coupons and exclusive deals? All of this nonsense to save a buck, to pretend that your miserable experience is somehow heightened from the misery it actually entails. But hey if you earn enough points, maybe next time it will be free. In this world of cultural deforestation we currently live in it's not enough for talentless hacks like Mindy Kaling to remake beloved franchises. No the original must also be destroyed. They pretend to honor it, they trot out James Cameron to be "involved" with the new Terminator, or they get Bill Murray to sleep walk through a cameo in the latest Ghostbusters. All to get you the fan to get excited and talk about it. All that plus more knock off voicemailers, Tim reads the news, and Tab inspires the next generation.
