Transcript section:
[00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:14.160] You've just announced this crazy news, crazy win for you guys.
[00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:22.400] But basically, to backtrack for anyone who is listening in and doesn't know what the MTA is, which was me before, you know, I looked it up.
[00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:27.760] MTA is the New York Metropolitan Transport Authority, I think it stands for.
[00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:30.000] And basically, it's the subway.
[00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:34.080] And you, as a company, sued them some year.
[00:00:34.080 --> 00:00:36.000] You sued them at some point.
[00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:40.640] And can you explain like the context of that process?
[00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:43.760] Like, how much does it cost to sue the MTA, by the way?
[00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:46.720] Are you allowed to talk about how much the legal fees for this were?
[00:00:47.040 --> 00:00:48.160] I think I am.
[00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:54.480] I'm never like, there's definitely things I'm not supposed to talk about, but like I'm really bad at not talking about things.
[00:00:54.480 --> 00:01:01.360] I really feel like just like in sex, like honest, open conversations about money are so important.
[00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:05.360] So yeah, we went to go run ads.
[00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:11.600] They said we could run ads and they decided that we couldn't say that no sexually oriented business could run ads.
[00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:16.160] But clearly there were lots of other sexually oriented businesses that were running ads.
[00:01:16.160 --> 00:01:20.560] So getting clearer on what that meant, it really impacted the business.
[00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:22.240] Like we had planned for it.
[00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:24.240] And I tried to get some press around it.
[00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:35.920] We got some press, but ultimately I decided like a lawsuit would be in our best interest in that it would hopefully make real change.
[00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:45.040] It would hopefully allow us to advertise and that it would help push forward an important conversation that would hopefully get us earned media.
[00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:49.280] So like it seems in alignment.
[00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:59.280] I found a lawyer and I think the whole lawsuit, I want to say, cost like $300,000, which is a lot of money.
[00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:08.280] I can't tell you about the settlement, but I can tell you that like, for me, the experience was worth it in like brand equity.
[00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:12.040] You know, I think it was one of the most powerful marketing campaigns.
[00:02:12.040 --> 00:02:14.680] It's a really sticky story.
[00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:19.240] And it's weird because like very few people start a company to sue people, right?
[00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:25.640] Like, does that feel like it's going to push us forward in the direction of whatever we're trying to grow at DAME?
[00:02:25.720 --> 00:02:35.560] Like it really took me a while to like sit with that thought before I was like, no, I'm going to spend money, some of which are like investors' dollars.
[00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:38.360] And investors were kind of like, you're going to do what?
[00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:39.640] You want to get into a lawsuit?
[00:02:39.640 --> 00:02:41.000] That sounds like a distraction.
[00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:44.760] That sounds like going to be a big money suck.
[00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:53.160] But it's, I think like acknowledging the ways that it could impact us negatively helps us just plan for that.
[00:02:53.160 --> 00:03:00.520] I just made sure that I wasn't giving a lot of time to the lawsuit, only was involved in things that were really important.
[00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:07.240] I tried to, you know, bring it into the narrative of what we do at Dame often.
[00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:11.800] And yeah, I think it was a solid decision.
[00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:15.160] That's just so wild and so amazing.
[00:03:15.160 --> 00:03:17.080] Obviously, congratulations.
[00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:18.120] Go you.
[00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:26.920] What a triumph in the business, but also in the landscape, because of course, this, you know, opens the way for so much to come.
[00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:31.880] Hey, it's June here.

Prompt 2: Key Takeaways
Now please extract the key takeaways from the transcript content I provided.
Extract the most important key takeaways from this part of the conversation. Use a single sentence statement (the key takeaway) rather than milquetoast descriptions like "the hosts discuss...".
Limit the key takeaways to a maximum of 3. The key takeaways should be insightful and knowledge-additive.
IMPORTANT: Return ONLY valid JSON, no explanations or markdown. Ensure:
- All strings are properly quoted and escaped
- No trailing commas
- All braces and brackets are balanced
Format: {"key_takeaways": ["takeaway 1", "takeaway 2"]}
Prompt 3: Segments
Now identify 2-4 distinct topical segments from this part of the conversation.
For each segment, identify:
- Descriptive title (3-6 words)
- START timestamp when this topic begins (HH:MM:SS format)
- Double check that the timestamp is accurate - a timestamp will NEVER be greater than the total length of the audio
- Most important Key takeaway from that segment. Key takeaway must be specific and knowledge-additive.
- Brief summary of the discussion
IMPORTANT: The timestamp should mark when the topic/segment STARTS, not a range. Look for topic transitions and conversation shifts.
Return ONLY valid JSON. Ensure all strings are properly quoted, no trailing commas:
{
"segments": [
{
"segment_title": "Topic Discussion",
"timestamp": "01:15:30",
"key_takeaway": "main point from this segment",
"segment_summary": "brief description of what was discussed"
}
]
}
Timestamp format: HH:MM:SS (e.g., 00:05:30, 01:22:45) marking the START of each segment.
Now scan the transcript content I provided for ACTUAL mentions of specific media titles:
Find explicit mentions of:
- Books (with specific titles)
- Movies (with specific titles)
- TV Shows (with specific titles)
- Music/Songs (with specific titles)
DO NOT include:
- Websites, URLs, or web services
- Other podcasts or podcast names
IMPORTANT:
- Only include items explicitly mentioned by name. Do not invent titles.
- Valid categories are: "Book", "Movie", "TV Show", "Music"
- Include the exact phrase where each item was mentioned
- Find the nearest proximate timestamp where it appears in the conversation
- THE TIMESTAMP OF THE MEDIA MENTION IS IMPORTANT - DO NOT INVENT TIMESTAMPS AND DO NOT MISATTRIBUTE TIMESTAMPS
- Double check that the timestamp is accurate - a timestamp will NEVER be greater than the total length of the audio
- Timestamps are given as ranges, e.g. 01:13:42.520 --> 01:13:46.720. Use the EARLIER of the 2 timestamps in the range.
Return ONLY valid JSON. Ensure all strings are properly quoted and escaped, no trailing commas:
{
"media_mentions": [
{
"title": "Exact Title as Mentioned",
"category": "Book",
"author_artist": "N/A",
"context": "Brief context of why it was mentioned",
"context_phrase": "The exact sentence or phrase where it was mentioned",
"timestamp": "estimated time like 01:15:30"
}
]
}
If no media is mentioned, return: {"media_mentions": []}
