  • The bulls are initially presented in a decorative manner, but later have an irritant tied under their stomach to provoke bucking (6m17s).
  • The riders in PBR events vary in size, but many appear to be muscular and relatively short, which may be an advantage in the sport as being tall could be a disadvantage in terms of being thrown around (6m41s).
  • The objective of the riders is to stay on the bull for eight seconds, which most of them fail to do, resulting in short periods of action punctuated by long breaks (7m14s).

  • Richard Pryor is considered one of the greatest comics ever, and his mom likely didn't want to hear about some of the things he talked about on stage, such as lighting himself on fire and freebasing, despite being a prostitute herself (12m8s).
  • Some comics make the mistake of being too therapeutic on stage, which can be off-putting to the audience, as people pay therapists for that kind of thing, not comedians (12m40s).

  • Using video messages or FaceTime can be an effective way to get to know someone before meeting in person, as it allows for a more personal and interactive connection (18m34s).
  • A dating app that focuses solely on video messages, without profiles or other features, could be a successful alternative to traditional dating apps (19m4s).
