so what's the answer for those of us who don't want to listen to a 40 minute long podcast or comb through the transcript to figure it out
But WHY. Why does boat paint need glitter in it, as opposed to all the other paints that don't need glitter.
I'm sure it's in the transcript but...
<- not gonna read it right now
Thanks!For visibility, of course. Glitter is extremely reflective and has no energy cost.
a lot of people tell me im too picky about podcasts I listen to, but having never listened to this particular podcast and then now reading this transcript...some people shouldn't have podcast equipment.Reading this transcript is as excruciating as listening to an episode of RadioLab. Just get to the point and tell me the mystery.
OooooooProbably cause they don't want competition?
Or maybe it turns out they're dumping things and tons of nondegradable materials into the ocean?
I don't doubt that is the answer, but it's way too anticlimactic after that woman pumped everything up in the interview.
Paint is one of the most obvious things and I don't see why anyone would be embarrassed or shocked to find that out.
Because they don't use paint. They use some clear gel that protects the fiberglass from water, and mix that gel with glitter.But WHY. Why does boat paint need glitter in it, as opposed to all the other paints that don't need glitter.

This is my view.
Damn. He called it.
Boat paint is obviously fucking glitter. Why would boat paint companies not want anyone to know they're suing glitter? It fucking looks like glitter.Weaver: "Why can't you disclose this buyer?"
Dyer: "Because they don't want anyone to know that it's glitter."
Yes you would! Anyone who's ever looked at one of those gaudy ass glittery boats has gone "Damn, they really glittered up that boat."Weaver: "If I looked at it, I wouldn't know it was glitter?"
Dyer: "No, not really."
How does this even begin to square with the bald faced obviousness of the boat paint answer?Weaver: "Would I be able to see the glitter?"
Dyer: "Oh, you'd be able to see something. But it's — yeah, I can't."
Boat paint doesn't fit the original exchange in ANY WAY. It's a total red herring.
