Why did Spielberg's latest movie FALL OFF A CLIFF!?

Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back to discuss Steven Spielberg falling off a cliff. Disclosure Day scored a huge opening weekend — $44 million domestic, $92.8 million worldwide, bigger than E.T., Saving Private Ryan, or The Fabelmans — and then dropped a staggering 62% in weekend two, landing a soft B CinemaScore on a $115 million budget that now needs to claw its way toward $300 million just to break even. Angelo reviews it, then discusses what went wrong.
THEN: YouTube wiped out 16 faceless AI channels in a single sweep this year... 35 million subscribers, 4.7 billion lifetime views, and nearly $10 million in annual ad revenue, gone overnight. Is this the most ominous sign yet that low-effort consumption, the background YouTube videos and the filler Spotify tracks, is the first thing AI just quietly takes over? And the gang's real fight: does it even matter if nobody was paying close attention in the first place?
ALL THAT PLUS: Widow's Bay, the merits of a Vancouver vacation without air conditioning, a harrowing new documentary on Netflix and much MUCH more!
