Ep. 687 Reunion with Aaron Malone/Pizza Mind: A Journey Through Science and Crypto · CRYPTO 101

0:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome to the Crypto101 podcast, presented by Gemini.
0:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Your bridge to the future of money.
0:14
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, everybody, welcome back to another episode of the crypto 101 podcast, I'm your co-host Bryce as always joined by my good buddy across the country Brendan Veman, Brendan, how are you doing?
0:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm doing good, Bryce.
0:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you getting deja vu right now?
0:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm getting a little bit of a blast from the past.
0:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm getting a little deja vu in D and we've got a familiar face, a good friend.
0:38
[SPEAKER_03]: And my former co-host is well, Mr. Aaron, the Pete Semind, well done, Malone, astronaut, doctor, philanthropist, billionaire, Satoshi's son, UFC fighting champion, and a professional male and female model, Pete Semind, how are you doing?
0:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh man.
0:58
[SPEAKER_01]: almost none of that is true.
1:01
[SPEAKER_01]: But I am doing really good.
1:03
[SPEAKER_01]: It feels so good to be home.
1:04
[SPEAKER_01]: I've missed you guys so much.
1:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Since I was last sitting in the co-host, hope pilot spot, I've been all over the world.
1:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I have much to report and let's try and condense as much as we can into this short window.
1:20
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no, we're we're super pumped, uh, catch us up just a little bit on what you've been up to since you've departed the podcast.
1:29
[SPEAKER_01]: So I departed.
1:31
[SPEAKER_01]: I believe sometimes September October 2023 and since then, I've been to Japan.
1:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I want
1:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Panama, and I'm currently sitting in Patagonia, Argentina right now as a pop-up state called Edge City.
1:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is a gathering neat.
1:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it is a gathering about 300 people from Web3 from science, from finance, from all kinds of different backgrounds that all want to get together and figure out how to change the world.
2:11
[SPEAKER_01]: And they basically created like this AI governs
2:15
[SPEAKER_01]: sort of community where everyone can, you know, have so working and post-living situations and group together.
2:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a lot of really high-level people here.
2:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Lots of them for web 3 people for the work with the Ethereum Foundation, et cetera, et cetera.
2:33
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's been really interesting.
2:35
[SPEAKER_01]: It's all like day three so far.
2:37
[SPEAKER_01]: And
2:38
[SPEAKER_01]: We found a lot of commonality and I'm very excited to learn a lot about AI.
2:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm hoping to learn about live coding.
2:47
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a lot of interest in the cross section between science and web three.
2:53
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's primarily where I've been focusing my efforts in attention lately.
2:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I feel like a lot of the financial problems we had have been solved.
3:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Bitcoin has treated sound money.
3:06
[SPEAKER_01]: There's been a million pretenders already in nothing's dethroned at this point.
3:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Bitcoin has been solidified, not just by Web3, but also by financial institutions and even world governments at this point.
3:17
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not going away.
3:19
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a clear first place prize winner.
3:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, what else can Web3 solve?
3:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And when I stumbled into a room,
3:31
[SPEAKER_01]: In December 2022 in Miami, there were about 15 people they're talking about something called D-side.
3:37
[SPEAKER_01]: And I said, that sounds interesting.
3:39
[SPEAKER_01]: What is that?
3:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was a small group of people that were going to later form molecule invited out and a couple other interesting things.
3:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And they basically thought, you know, science is really closely guarded by either major research institutions or universities.
3:59
[SPEAKER_01]: And they're all competing to invent the next big thing with not a lot of collaboration going on.
4:06
[SPEAKER_01]: But there is something called the Open Source Science Movement that's taking place over a few universe in Europe as kind of a pirate thing.
4:14
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, what if we were to work together and share our data?
4:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe we could make advancements a lot faster.
4:20
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where blockchain and decentralized storage comes in.
4:24
[SPEAKER_01]: That's where decentralized autonomous organizations or DAOS.
4:29
[SPEAKER_01]: are able to be formed where people all over the world with common interests and common expertise can now start collaborating and working together instead of being be full of into an institution that bards everything with an NDA and you know encryption and all this stuff and just keeps in all of themselves.
4:48
[SPEAKER_01]: So that is kind of the birth idea of D side and we'll just keep that as
4:57
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I love it.
4:58
[SPEAKER_03]: So you finally got your wish.
4:59
[SPEAKER_03]: You got to travel around the world.
5:01
[SPEAKER_03]: You got to see almost every city you've ever wanted to.
5:03
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's just cool to think back to the early days of starting everything together in your little apartment and all that kind of stuff.
5:11
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, man, who knew if we were ever going to make it out of San Diego?
5:15
[SPEAKER_03]: But lo and behold, it sounds like you've pretty much seen every city that you've wanted to.
5:21
[SPEAKER_03]: So really proud of you for spreading your wings and flying and taking a big,
5:25
[SPEAKER_03]: yet another big risk.
5:26
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, pretty much your whole life is just one big walking talking risk taker.
5:30
[SPEAKER_03]: And so you've you've taken another one and you've really found some traction with unbound science.
5:35
[SPEAKER_03]: But I want to continue to paint the picture.
5:37
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll go down one level of the rabbit hole.
5:40
[SPEAKER_03]: who are the bad guys in science right now who you know you're building desi projects because you want to you know just in the same way that central bankers and you know all these corrupt bankers you know we're dethroned by bitcoin and then big tech was kind of dethroned by a theorem i would imagine it's like big pharma but it's probably a lot deeper so i want to hear kind of who's about to be dethroned by pizza mind
6:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
6:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So let's talk about the good, the bad, the ugly.
6:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
6:09
[SPEAKER_01]: The good are the people that go into science because they want to change the world for the better.
6:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Most of the scientists I've talked to are not profit driven.
6:18
[SPEAKER_01]: They're impact driven.
6:19
[SPEAKER_01]: And they want to see life for everybody improve.
6:23
[SPEAKER_01]: And they work their asses off to try and find discoveries for diseases or new ways to have clean energy or ways to improve the mineral content of food.
6:33
[SPEAKER_01]: or ways to create bacteria that eats up oils stills, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
6:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And they go out into the world and they usually start with going to university.
6:44
[SPEAKER_01]: They get their education and they start a research fellowship or something like that.
6:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where it starts to go bad.
6:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Because these universities are beholden to the people that make donations so they're
7:04
[SPEAKER_01]: misaligned incentives for progress because they own patents, they own sock in all these companies that are enormous and friendly, controlled things.
7:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And if something is innovated outside the box of what's allowed, it can be highly disruptive to the people that have all the money.
7:24
[SPEAKER_01]: So there is a
7:28
[SPEAKER_01]: in this kind of culture where you've got these research, these researchers that are working their asses off, they're not getting a lot of money and in many ways it's very similar to being an up-and-coming musician where it's an extremely top-heavy industry where there's very few people compared to everyone involved that are actually famous and wealthy.
7:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you say the wrong thing or you step on the wrong person's toes or you take money out of this person's pocket like
7:57
[SPEAKER_01]: and if you want to go and work on something really disruptive like zero point energy devices or hydrogen modules for electric vehicles or something like that, not only for your career to be over, you may get a knock on the door threatening your life.
8:15
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're lucky, some people are not so lucky they didn't get a warning and we're simply just eliminated.
8:21
[SPEAKER_01]: And this isn't just happening, you know, 56 years ago around the Cold War or the turn of the century when JP Morgan burned down Tesla's lab.
8:30
[SPEAKER_01]: This is happening now.
8:32
[SPEAKER_01]: It was just a couple years ago, even that there was a researcher named Amy Eskidge, who was working on experiments in gravity.
8:41
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a very famous podcast that is still on YouTube right now.
8:46
[SPEAKER_01]: where she was talking about potentially being threatened for her research and sure it up.
8:51
[SPEAKER_01]: She died mysteriously just like so many other scientists just a few months later.
8:57
[SPEAKER_01]: She's like in her 20s or 30s.
9:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, so there's a lot of gatekeepers in medicine still.
9:04
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of gatekeepers and those are the bad ones.
9:08
[SPEAKER_01]: The ugly ones I would say,
9:12
[SPEAKER_01]: world governance.
9:13
[SPEAKER_01]: For example, the United States still has something called the Innovation Secrecy Act or the Invention Secrecy Act.
9:19
[SPEAKER_01]: That was passed and I believe 1951, 1952.
9:22
[SPEAKER_01]: And this allowed the US government to take anything that came through the patent office that it wanted to, if they could use it for military purposes.
9:31
[SPEAKER_01]: And this act has been invoked over 6,000 times to steal work from scientists.
9:38
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the ugly truth right there.
9:40
[SPEAKER_01]: So
9:42
[SPEAKER_01]: The reason we don't have free energy and flying cars and pure abundance and are still basically enslaved by artificial scarcity is all a rigged game just like the financial markets.
9:55
[SPEAKER_01]: But it doesn't have to be because of decentralized technologies now.
10:00
[SPEAKER_01]: We can make a place where these scientists can public their work and use their own
10:10
[SPEAKER_01]: can get funding for their work through donations without that being seized or going through banks.
10:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Thanks for cryptocurrency.
10:19
[SPEAKER_01]: And these are all the building blocks and philosophies behind what we're building at unbound science.
10:25
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, this reminds me of, I don't know if you've seen this, this is a little bit off topic.
10:29
[SPEAKER_00]: But have you guys heard of Julian Brown?
10:32
[SPEAKER_00]: He is an individual in America, and he's made this thing called Plastoline, where he's found a way to recycle plastic and turn it into, I think, diesel, like a diesel like fuel, and it's been tested and it works, and he's gone viral lately.
10:48
[SPEAKER_00]: And immediately, that's kind of where my brain goes, is like something like that that's super innovative,
10:53
[SPEAKER_00]: probably borderline dangerous, right, because of what you were talking about.
10:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Something like that could maybe be published on blockchain.
11:02
[SPEAKER_00]: So that way, hey, you know, God forbid if something were to happen, at least we have the concepts of it and the practice of it, but it's a super cool thing.
11:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I think pizza, I think you would actually really enjoy learning about him, and maybe that's someone you could even reach out to, but yeah, fascinating stuff.
11:19
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
11:20
[SPEAKER_03]: It sounds like it's threatening to big oil for sure.
11:23
[SPEAKER_01]: That's exactly right.
11:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And the only reason that we don't have many thorium and fishing reactors and zero point energy devices and little hydrogen models of powers are neighborhood is because of big oil.
11:35
[SPEAKER_03]: We might have them in area 51 or we might have them in the government.
11:40
[SPEAKER_01]: The technology absolutely exists and it's starting to filter out into the public map.
11:48
[SPEAKER_01]: burdened one was the solar panels on your roof, the big giant wind turbines, you know, everywhere in the desert, but those come with their own problems with when they stop working, how do they get recycled and how do they get decommissioned and it just creates a bunch more waste and a bunch more problems.
12:16
[SPEAKER_01]: or vision, or even now Amazon's coming out a little miniature nuclear reactors to power data centers.
12:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow, hydrogen, I even saw something that works off of water and gravity.
12:28
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like this tube that you vary two thirds of the way down in your front yard, but it's enough to power your house.
12:35
[SPEAKER_01]: So all these things are now starting to come out in innovation zones and being displayed at CES every year.
12:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Also, one of the problems is when scientists come up with an amazing invention, they're not very good businessmen and they're even worse at marketing because they're so passionate about what they do.
12:56
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't really want to, you know, put the sizzle on the stake because their job is to be the stake and that they really holds a lot of people back.
13:05
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the things that I saw that was amazing at CES last year was this little box that would that you would put a plant inside.
13:15
[SPEAKER_01]: a plant there's a plant and the AI we look at the plant and determine what kind of ceases of plant it was and how much optimal sunlight and water needed and you could put multiple plants in there and it would adjust her plant to give it its optimal growth and this thing improved like the growth rate of like 30 or 40 percent something really, really amazing.
13:39
[SPEAKER_01]: They partnered with Samsung to become part of the Samsung smart home automation system.
13:45
[SPEAKER_01]: So now you can look at your Samsung things at like you would your air conditioner or heating in your house or in the locks or anything and you can also monitor how your plants are built.
13:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought this is the way forward.
13:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Parker with the existing companies that have global distribution and the political slay.
14:03
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're really focused on a major impact, those companies are going to help get your ideas spread across a little faster than you ever
14:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm all about not some of them disruption.
14:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I also want to be realistic.
14:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not going to be able to get rid of world governance and large corporations no matter what we do.
14:23
[SPEAKER_01]: But if we can create competition and better products that will sell as a whole life is still going to get better for everyone.
14:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I have a bit of a regulatory question for you, Aaron, because when it comes to blockchain tech, there's all these amazing use cases that we could have, and a lot of the time, it feels like some sort of regulatory hurdle gets in the way.
14:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I think with tokenization and real-world assets and that whole pool, we've seen it, right?
14:53
[SPEAKER_00]: People have said, oh, well, it can,
14:54
[SPEAKER_00]: fractionalize all these different industries like art in real estate, but then in the US you tend to see that blocked and there's this amazing use case and then you can go in the define you can see it there and you can go in the privacy and you can see it there and there's all these different kind of one of verticals.
15:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you fear at all that like the US could look at this or like not just the US like at any country or every country could look at this and say We're gonna put a pause on it for now and maybe we'll revisit it or they'll regulate it because that's immediately where my brain went It's like obviously there's this beautiful example of like art in real estate in tokenization and this looks the same It's like no it's undoubtedly something that can be powerful and good and transformative but
15:38
[SPEAKER_00]: in a sense that almost makes me more worried that it could be regulated.
15:43
[SPEAKER_01]: You're absolutely correct.
15:46
[SPEAKER_01]: And in my opinion, that will happen, which is why we did not incorporate in the US.
15:52
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to stay out of the radar for as long as possible.
15:55
[SPEAKER_01]: But from philosophical perspective, I really had to deal with this and say, what do you do?
16:00
[SPEAKER_01]: First off, why should one or two people get to say what the quality of life is for everybody else?
16:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Power is a two-way street.
16:09
[SPEAKER_01]: It takes one person to say, I have control over your life and the other person to say yes you do.
16:16
[SPEAKER_01]: And we've done that far too long.
16:18
[SPEAKER_01]: And as far as a legal system goes, why should we pay attention to a patent system from a government that will literally steal any idea it wants, suppress any idea it wants, and follow the law when it wants to and doesn't want to.
16:31
[SPEAKER_01]: with income tax being against the constitution and all the things that judges are trying to do now with letting murderers out of prison after a few days.
16:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Why would I obey a system like that that wants society to crumble?
16:45
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is my own silent war in return for all that.
16:51
[SPEAKER_01]: What we want is to take the blueprints, the instruction manuals, the how-to videos, to create these disruptive technologies
17:00
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, nice little Lego kit and spread around the way movies were spread around on Bit Torx.
17:06
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to parrot this stuff.
17:08
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not just being produced in one little lab somewhere, but thousands of people simultaneously are building it all over the world to the point that it can't be stopped and it can't be suppressed.
17:18
[SPEAKER_01]: And the people who run these companies and probably these governments have to acknowledge, okay, this is reality now.
17:25
[SPEAKER_01]: We might as well
17:29
[SPEAKER_01]: move on from rare earth mineral mining, et cetera, et cetera.
17:33
[SPEAKER_01]: And what do I mean by that?
17:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, if you have enough energy, you can burn garbage down to the atomic level.
17:42
[SPEAKER_01]: We're currently able to do it down to the plasma level.
17:46
[SPEAKER_01]: But if you burn something to the atomic level, you can now take those atoms reorganize them to become anything else.
17:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And essentially, you have a replicator
17:54
[SPEAKER_01]: It should take an amazing amount of energy to do, but I talk to scientists and the can theoretically be done now.
18:01
[SPEAKER_01]: We just need that a massive amount of energy to do that.
18:04
[SPEAKER_01]: When you can rearrange some molecules into anything, you've really removed artificial scarcity.
18:09
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't have to have all these wars for resources anymore.
18:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And when you have infinite amounts of resources, you can't really have war in the first place because no one's going to sign up for the military to go to war.
18:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Because we don't really have a whole lot of hatred for one another anymore.
18:24
[SPEAKER_01]: The only reason that war has happened is for resources and energy.
18:29
[SPEAKER_01]: But if you take those two things and you make them completely abundant, now you essentially have world peace, at least theoretically it's possible.
18:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's a massive amount of disruption that can come out of this over the next several decades.
18:44
[SPEAKER_01]: And it is really a long-tailed play.
18:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Purp decks and coffee, some code, and making something that people are used to already know how to use.
18:58
[SPEAKER_01]: This is all brand new stuff that's never been done before.
19:02
[SPEAKER_03]: And so it seems like, you know, kind of tie in this into, you know, the project you're working on now, it seems like you want to go out and find these, you know, scientists and the, you know, thinkers and bring them on to your platform and have them, you know, kind of, you know, I'm trying to, you know, work my, my head around everything.
19:20
[SPEAKER_03]: Tell us a little bit about, you know, how unbound science is going to fix this, you know, societal, you know, cultural issue.
19:32
[SPEAKER_01]: to be very honest.
19:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I think, you know, it's going to take us 10 years like it took big one, 10 years to be looked at seriously.
19:39
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, first they laughed at you, then they fight you and then you win.
19:41
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to have that.
19:42
[SPEAKER_01]: But we're not even at the lap stage.
19:45
[SPEAKER_01]: We're still being the end of Sarah that like the ignores once.
19:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, pretty much.
19:51
[SPEAKER_01]: We have not raised from any investors or venture capitalists for the last three years.
19:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I've had
20:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like the universe has called on me to do this mission, otherwise I never would have done because it was then an enormous headache.
20:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I had a beautiful job sitting here at the podcast and being a crypto educator which I love doing.
20:17
[SPEAKER_01]: And to go down to this path of nothing but suffering, they're really has to be some kind of higher payoff for it.
20:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think there will be, otherwise, you know, I would have quit a long time ago.
20:28
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
20:29
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's not like you're not motivated by money.
20:31
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll tell you that.
20:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it's not like a profit thing that you're going off.
20:35
[SPEAKER_03]: You're really philosophically motivated here.
20:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
20:38
[SPEAKER_01]: And when you have a mission rather than a job, it's for life.
20:42
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's no quit.
20:44
[SPEAKER_01]: And for that matter, even here at Edge City, I volunteer to do free crypto education because I still feel like that's part of the mission is freeing people from slavery.
20:55
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope you're telling people of void perplexes.
20:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
20:59
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm telling that actually got someone to subscribe to crypto 101 podcast yesterday.
21:03
[SPEAKER_03]: All right.
21:03
[SPEAKER_03]: There we go.
21:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you want to work?
21:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
21:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So.
21:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Everyone, you are still in the right place, being good.
21:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
21:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think there's a lot of other amazing things happening in D.S.I.
21:19
[SPEAKER_01]: as well.
21:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm kind of the only person who's focused on science in the realms of, like, clean energy and, uh, airwater and soil technology, pollution waste management and quantum tech, for the four areas of science that we're supporting in unbound science for now.
21:34
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's a lot of other things that are happening in biotech and longevity that are really interesting also things that can make people healthier things that go completely against the philosophy of big pharma things that say no your body's not a chemical system it's an electrical system and we can have it be self correcting if we.
21:57
[SPEAKER_01]: work on the proper frequencies and there's people who use light and sound vibration to heal illness or prevent illness from even happening.
22:06
[SPEAKER_01]: But I've been part of a lot of these experiments.
22:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I usually will get sick anytime I travel.
22:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't been sick for over a year now.
22:14
[SPEAKER_03]: But just don't have a one year old onion.
22:16
[SPEAKER_03]: If you have a one year old baby, you're going to get sick all the time like me.
22:19
[SPEAKER_01]: My brother has had three of them over the past a couple years.
22:23
[SPEAKER_01]: We've got one that's even not even one years old yet.
22:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I hang out with them all the time.
22:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not getting sick anymore, man.
22:29
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's really something to.
22:32
[SPEAKER_03]: What are you used to be kind of sickly I did.
22:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I was always get pulled every time the weather would change Anytime I went to a new country, you know, whatever new germs would get me I'd get knocked out for a few days And it's been well over a year while I've been to almost 10 countries.
22:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not coming out over here hanging out with my little nephews that are in preschool all the time and sick every other week
22:56
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's really something to this science.
22:59
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not just people trying to push their own ideas to make money.
23:02
[SPEAKER_01]: These French scientists are actually on to something.
23:06
[SPEAKER_03]: So are you at unbound science trying to fund all of these researchers?
23:11
[SPEAKER_03]: Are you trying to give them a platform to publish their research?
23:14
[SPEAKER_03]: Are you giving them a community to share their research?
23:17
[SPEAKER_03]: Give us like that insight.
23:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, all the above.
23:21
[SPEAKER_01]: So the way it works for a scientist is you come on the platform when you sign up and you eventually have an interface that looks like Google Drive.
23:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And we have an instructional list of all the materials that we want you to make to be able to market whatever your invention is.
23:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So make an intro video, make an explainer video, film some videos of you building this thing.
23:42
[SPEAKER_01]: We need Blueprints, we need instruction manuals, we want your research notes.
23:49
[SPEAKER_01]: this big mess on their desk and compile it into a package that we can actually work with.
23:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Then we say, okay, here's these donation pools, science community, anyone can donate to them in USDC and we also have a nonprofit foundation set up to take philanthropic donations because most of science research is supported, not by profit, but through science and donation.
24:13
[SPEAKER_01]: So we've got that avenue set up as well.
24:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, the scientists can go to the community and publish these videos, the community interface looks just like YouTube except it's all frame science texts up.
24:26
[SPEAKER_01]: And you can go to the community and say, hey, I mean, another 50 grand to paint a candle engineer to make a case for the same or, I mean, 100 grand to get these materials to take us to the next level, you know, will you
24:47
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's the way that works, and then we have third-party marketplaces that specialize in matching new inventions with existing tech giants like Samsung and LG and GE, etc.
24:59
[SPEAKER_01]: So they can then package all their stuff sent to the marketplace and earn residual income, potentially millions a year, and then they can continue to focus on doing their science.
25:10
[SPEAKER_03]: And what are one of the assurances I suppose like that their stuff won't be ripped off, right?
25:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Because like, you know, the U.S. patent office, you go and if you file a patent with them, nobody could kind of take it and if they did, the government might take it or whatever.
25:25
[SPEAKER_03]: And but if they, if they do, you could have grounds for like a lawsuit.
25:29
[SPEAKER_03]: And so if a scientist wants to go and say, hey, I've got all this, you know, private research.
25:34
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want anybody to know about it, but I do want help with the funding.
25:38
[SPEAKER_03]: How do we kind of thread that needle?
25:40
[SPEAKER_01]: they have the right and the ability to do that.
25:43
[SPEAKER_01]: However, I think it's not optimal.
25:47
[SPEAKER_01]: For instance, if someone in the US feels their researcher, their ideas or whatever, and they've got to patent in the US, yes, they can take them to court.
25:55
[SPEAKER_01]: But that doesn't apply anywhere else.
25:58
[SPEAKER_01]: If someone from Panama, seals that are elsewhere, or bang with that, she gets kind of
26:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.
26:05
[SPEAKER_01]: So the whole global patent system like doesn't exist.
26:09
[SPEAKER_01]: It's basically like every single jurisdiction you'd have to file a patent and then protect it.
26:14
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a huge headache and it was basically impossible for anyone who's an individual scientist.
26:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, Disney can't even prevent Mickey Mouse and Disney merch from being stolen globally.
26:26
[SPEAKER_01]: So what chances of an individual science lab?
26:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Trying to say instead, I say why don't you open source your stuff?
26:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Let people get already on, let people take it, but what you're releasing is maybe like the free version, maybe like the scale down version.
26:42
[SPEAKER_01]: And if someone wants the corporate or the municipal size version of, you know, your energy reactor or whatever, then they can get a license from you.
26:51
[SPEAKER_01]: For you, I mean, these things may need like software built so you can have software licenses with different seats or different, you know, wattage putoffs or whatever it is.
27:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Or do they can also, you can say, if you want to use this as a individual, you're allowed to, but as a government or a corporation need to buy a license for it, as well as a consulting contract, so you don't blow up the, you know, your city, make sure you're doing it right and also an emergency engineering contract, where something's broken, the scientists will actually fly out the next day to go fix it themselves and those alone can bring in multiple million dollars a year.
27:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Now you don't need to worry so much about sales, you just cover the support, which is the model that RedPat uses.
27:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Red Hat is probably the largest open source Linux software provider and enterprise version that people use.
27:45
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the same thing as all these other free versions, but when you're paying for is the support that comes with it and the expertise behind it.
27:54
[SPEAKER_01]: fascinating.
27:55
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think a lot of people like you mentioned a molecule invited Dow, could you kind of compare and contrast what you're working on with these two?
28:03
[SPEAKER_03]: I would say there may be the largest names in DSI right now, and maybe there's a few others that you could kind of shed light on too.
28:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, there's bio protocol, which is one of us, a Mino chain raised money from A16Z.
28:16
[SPEAKER_01]: So a lot of people are working on the research side of things.
28:20
[SPEAKER_01]: There's research hub as well, that Brian Armstrong funded.
28:25
[SPEAKER_01]: CZ has some things in the works as well, but a lot of things are focused on research and being like libraries for research.
28:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, no error is a really popular tool for checking flaws in research so that AI goes through and make sure the math is all correct in things.
28:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's pretty awesome, but what we're focused on is not research so much as post-research.
28:51
[SPEAKER_01]: We're looking for things that are product-ready, and we're focused on inventors that are getting their hands dirty, as opposed to researchers that just want to publish a paper and hope somebody else actually does the work later.
29:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that's been a very false finish line for scientists for decades now.
29:10
[SPEAKER_01]: where instead of actually bringing something into the world and getting their hands dirty, they're content to just sit in their ivory tower, comfortable in their air conditioner, and write ideas and theories, and then they pay thousands of dollars to some journal to publish it where no one really in the world reads that stuff other than maybe other scientists.
29:32
[SPEAKER_01]: And it has the by-design the most minimal impact possible.
29:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're moving that finish line and saying no, you actually need to put on your running shoes and get out into the workshop and build something.
29:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Get your hands dirty, get your goggles on, get your lab coat on and get it dirty.
29:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And then when you've actually got something that works that can change someone's life when you hand them this device.
29:57
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the finish line.
29:59
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
30:01
[SPEAKER_03]: And if we go back to some of the IP stuff, I remember, I mean, God, this must have been, yeah, right when you, you know, maybe in 2023, you were like, one of the first people who told me about story protocol about IP and FTEs, all this kind of stuff, are you still using story protocol to help for some of the IP or how do you guys handle that?
30:21
[SPEAKER_03]: Are there any NFTs involved?
30:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Molecule invented something called an IP NFT.
30:26
[SPEAKER_01]: and we're using that type of technology in our staff.
30:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, storage protocol had no interest in IP precise or making any controls for D-side.
30:38
[SPEAKER_01]: They were solely focused on art and music and recently their co-founder as soon as this token's vested just left and decided to use more interest in AI now.
30:50
[SPEAKER_01]: So unfortunately, it looks like story protocol is just going to be another one of those dead points.
30:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Unless you don't have to believe in them.
30:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, totally.
30:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, unless the existing team, you know, could decide to evolve it.
31:04
[SPEAKER_01]: I think what they built has a lot of potential use in the world, but so many things that have come out in this last cycle are just
31:19
[SPEAKER_01]: The user in the investor is the product and they're just trying to mass extract from their community instead of delivering value to their community.
31:28
[SPEAKER_01]: And we're seeing all these things, all these tokens launched with, you know, $5,000,000 billion valuation and a tiny float of like 35% of supply.
31:39
[SPEAKER_01]: And they own holding these tokens is going to get absolutely annihilated.
31:43
[SPEAKER_01]: The most money to be made in this cycle is actually when it's over, just shorting these things into the ground over the next three years is huge supply and locks delivery like a guaranteed 9% drop down or more.
31:56
[SPEAKER_00]: isn't it fascinating seeing how many coins have come into existence and you're right like launching with these multi-billion dollar valuations because all three of us, I'm pretty sure all three of us were around in like 2017, 2018.
32:10
[SPEAKER_00]: That was never the case.
32:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it was quite the opposite.
32:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Not only was there like a few hundred, few thousand crypto's back then, you know, now there's what over, I think 22, 23 million on coin market cap, but nothing
32:25
[SPEAKER_00]: valuation and so I mean it's it really is wild looking back on it, you know, not even a decade later and seeing how much things have changed.
32:37
[SPEAKER_00]: And in a way, I don't know, I mean, there's pros and cons.
32:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to get your guys thoughts on this.
32:41
[SPEAKER_00]: But there's pros and cons.
32:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I know back then, you had a lot of projects that would launch, and then they would just go to zero, and things would happen.
32:48
[SPEAKER_00]: And we all remember the kind of ICO bubble that we went through.
32:52
[SPEAKER_00]: And today, I think that a lot of these projects that are being backed and that do launch at a billion dollar valuation,
33:00
[SPEAKER_00]: or something greater than that.
33:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that they have a little bit more longevity because they have investor tied to them.
33:06
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're a little bit more sticky, but I don't know, there's trade-offs on both ends.
33:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you guys noticed that?
33:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's been really strange to me that both retail and institutional investors have intentionally gone towards putting their money in stamps and means and things that aren't meant to deliver long-term value.
33:28
[SPEAKER_01]: because they will return short-term profits, especially for these insider investors at the getting the best deal.
33:35
[SPEAKER_01]: So we see so many projects with this huge list we used to talk about, you know, follow the whales and follow the smart money.
33:41
[SPEAKER_01]: But they're getting deals that we're not.
33:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
33:44
[SPEAKER_01]: And they're able to cash out at the right time because they know that these things are not going to stay around.
33:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Even if they look cool, that's the hook.
33:52
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where they get you.
33:54
[SPEAKER_01]: And so many of these things just aren't going to survive because they're not meant to.
33:58
[SPEAKER_01]: The founders are going to leave.
33:59
[SPEAKER_01]: The investors are going to leave and someone's going to be left holding the bad, whether it's tokens or even companies that are now going public and selling off their equity and just saying, okay, cool, we're done working move on to the next thing.
34:12
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not what businesses are supposed to be about.
34:15
[SPEAKER_01]: It's supposed to be about building a legacy.
34:18
[SPEAKER_01]: It's supposed to be about providing a service to your society.
34:23
[SPEAKER_01]: like what we've built here at Diversion Financial and the crypto 101 podcast.
34:28
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
34:29
[SPEAKER_03]: Totally.
34:30
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just, yeah, I'm super interested in what you guys are building.
34:34
[SPEAKER_03]: And how have you kind of like built up a team around this?
34:37
[SPEAKER_03]: Have you kind of sourced people from all over the world?
34:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Are you, you know, in your home to, I don't even know if you have a hometown, like are you just kind of what do they call a no mad, right?
34:49
[SPEAKER_03]: And with remote work and I'm just curious about what
34:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I was going to be, but my dad's told in a favor.
35:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I told him a long time ago that when he got to a certain age, I was going to take care of him for the rest of his life.
35:06
[SPEAKER_01]: And he decided, last year, he was finally going to move out of California and come out to Texas.
35:11
[SPEAKER_01]: So I've got him to look after and we've got a little place just around the corner for my brother.
35:16
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm very happy that one of my big goals when I got into crypto was to retire my dad.
35:21
[SPEAKER_01]: we've finally got to do that and now you just get to play grandpa every day.
35:25
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's been amazing.
35:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to miss out on the final years that I have left with them.
35:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So I would say at least at home, you know, probably 60, 70% of the time.
35:37
[SPEAKER_01]: And the rest of the time, I'm just wherever the wind blows me.
35:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And wherever the wind blows me, I've seen two,
35:42
[SPEAKER_01]: be gifted these chance meetings by the university.
35:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Lots of bread drums and synchronicities of really kept me going through some of the dark times and the broke days and setbacks because I meet these people and you just bite hands and they follow love with the mission of unbound science and say great how can I help?
36:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I say, I need this.
36:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I need that.
36:03
[SPEAKER_01]: And I found two other co-founders that were able to help me get the actual companies registered.
36:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I found developers.
36:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I found artists and community members and tons of scientists.
36:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Many of which are in web 3 because they fell out of love with sites because of all these roadblocks.
36:22
[SPEAKER_01]: And now this is like a second chance for them.
36:24
[SPEAKER_01]: So they're they're waiting in the waiting for the same to launch.
36:27
[SPEAKER_01]: It's been about three years.
36:30
[SPEAKER_01]: of researching and building and then rebuilding and rebuilding again, trying to find the right text out.
36:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And how we're finally almost ready to have the Alpa watch, which we're going to do this November at Death Connect.
36:42
[SPEAKER_03]: Nice.
36:43
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
36:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that was kind of my next question was taking a look at the road map.
36:47
[SPEAKER_03]: What does it look like?
36:49
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, November, you're going to be launching and then what are kind of the next steps that you're wanting to take and put out there?
36:57
[SPEAKER_01]: After that, we really want to start building out other tools and features for scientists to use.
37:02
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to build out a collaboration whiteboard platform where scientists can work together from all over the world to solve problems, whether it's math equations or research or blueprints or putting several blueprints together and building on top of each other.
37:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to enable that and have a way to fractionize and share the IP and royalties that come out of that.
37:26
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to build a lot of AI translation tools, which is a big problem.
37:31
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll go from Chinese to English or just from very high level, like University Professor type language to ELA5.
37:41
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to have AI peer review.
37:43
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to have actual human peer reviews that are sorted into kind of like a seven-person jury, where they're going to then try and reinvent
37:56
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to have a game show module that decides how the donation pools get distributed and we want to have that game show live at CES every year.
38:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
38:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's a lot that's being planned.
38:09
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we need to add.
38:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Token mining for user interactions to pay people out kind of similar to the way dy dx distributed their tokens.
38:20
[SPEAKER_01]: So we got 40% of the United supply that has been distributed there.
38:25
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we have several other, what I'm calling auxiliary tools and platforms that are not related to science at all.
38:33
[SPEAKER_01]: In fact, we have our very first degenerating tool called freaking dot fun that is coming out.
38:40
[SPEAKER_01]: That's freaking with a pH as a wash through the old 90s phone hacking systems.
38:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And this will allow some degenerate gambling in ways we've never seen before in this space.
38:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And we're going to be extracting fees from dumb money and giving it to smart scientists as a way to continue to help fund these donation pools.
39:04
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll have several of these coming out, including a anap think of fantasy football meet perks traded.
39:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
39:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, where you can go ahead to head against another trader or you can join a lead and earn points,
39:19
[SPEAKER_01]: and you set your lineups for long six point and short six coins for a week and see what happens.
39:26
[SPEAKER_01]: So we've got a lot of fun things coming out to help fund more scientists through DeFi, through the DGN ecosystem here and take advantage of where crypto is at today.
39:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I mean, all that stuff's hot right now.
39:40
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't think it's too bad of an idea.
39:43
[SPEAKER_00]: You're playing a little bit.
39:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think anything's been launching at me.
39:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Point.
39:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, you know, Pete's we appreciate you, man.
39:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, a lot of people who have been around for a while, I mean, you all know, you know, Pete was sitting in our shoes, just a little bit ago.
39:58
[SPEAKER_00]: And now you're building your own project.
40:01
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going around the world.
40:02
[SPEAKER_00]: You're talking to people, you know, building a team, you're doing all this stuff.
40:05
[SPEAKER_00]: What kind of advice do you have for people who are watching and they want to build their own crypto project as well?
40:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I think by voting is one of the things that is going to be the most impactful thing in the world because it lowers the barrier from someone who's had to go to school for your four to eight years to learn how to be a senior developer that is in, you know, they're
40:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And many other tools, you can create a simple website or a simple app simply just by typing in human language.
40:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I want an app that does this, this, this, this and this and you can talk to it just like you are talking to a developer across the table and explaining what you want built.
40:53
[SPEAKER_01]: And instead of months or years, it's literally done in minutes and these tools are getting better and better.
41:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe there's some things that don't quite work and they need to hire someone to come in and you know fix the bugs or wreck this issue, but
41:14
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of competition between Google and OpenAI and Microsoft and other companies to make better and better AI depth tools.
41:21
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think that's going to be a lot of fun.
41:25
[SPEAKER_03]: It seems like there's now like with all these Vibecoding tools, meaning like, you know, these AI coding tools where you don't have to have program experience.
41:33
[SPEAKER_03]: There's now a premium on vision
41:36
[SPEAKER_03]: in a premium on ability to communicate your vision because in the past it's like the people who really made all the money or whatever they were you know a lot of the people who had vision but they could program it right and so they you know for perfect example Jack Dorsey right like he was you know this you know big idea guy and then he invented Twitter but he took years and years and years to code up this platform and and now I think like at the end of the day there's
42:02
[SPEAKER_03]: sort of like the revenues or the profits for these software engineers are going to fall over time and the people who have the really high quality communication skills that can tell the AI what it wants with really precise prompting those are sort of going to be the people that are the CEOs and the chairman of the future.
42:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah and that's kind of where I'm trying
42:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got it into the called obscenity labs and we're basically building web 3 applications that starts, niches that don't exist in the web 3, or are building a very strange things, but we're looking for real world applications that are beyond just tokenized real estate.
42:47
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're building things next in decentralized history and decentralized justice.
42:57
[SPEAKER_01]: And the way I'm looking at is, okay, one of the tools we need if society is really going to collapse and if things continue to get worse and we continue to lose more and more faith in our institutions and governments, where do we turn?
43:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Bitcoin was there when the banks need to get bailout.
43:14
[SPEAKER_01]: So we need other things as well from voting systems to, I mean, even just smart city tools to run public utilities.
43:23
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's kind of what I'm doing here at Edge City is trying to figure out more smart city and AI stuff.
43:28
[SPEAKER_01]: And by now what's being built.
43:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And even just as simple as, you know, attaching a laser scanner to city vehicles that can then map whether driving over pop holes and create a map of all the pop holes in the city and start auto scheduling things to get built.
43:45
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a very simple
43:47
[SPEAKER_01]: But an amazing tool, you know, we should have at this point, we've got the technology, we've seen to build little things like this.
43:55
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
43:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
43:56
[SPEAKER_03]: There's so many, so many, you know, areas of opportunity, and you know, you
44:02
[SPEAKER_03]: extremely large green pastures.
44:04
[SPEAKER_03]: And I like that kind of analogy was how Bitcoin was there when Bitcoin bailed out the banks or Bitcoin bailed out the citizens.
44:13
[SPEAKER_03]: When the government basically said, okay, we're going to put the banks, we're going to nationalize the banks.
44:18
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to put them on our balance sheet.
44:19
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to have the U.S. citizen taxpayers bail out the banks.
44:23
[SPEAKER_03]: And Bitcoin was there to say, hey, here's an alternative.
44:26
[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, with everything that you're building, it's like, hey, look at all the crazy things that we're finding out about COVID, right?
44:32
[SPEAKER_03]: All the horrible atrocities that, you know, the government's hidden from us and enacted upon us, and like we could go down that whole rabbit hole.
44:41
[SPEAKER_03]: And, I remember, you know, back in, I think it was January of 2020.
44:47
[SPEAKER_03]: And you have January of 2020, and I remember just watching this bit Lord video where he was in China and he was like filming around.
44:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, this is crazy and China was completely empty.
44:58
[SPEAKER_03]: He goes, this is insane.
44:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Like there's not a single soul.
45:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I think this virus is going to be really bad.
45:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Then you went to the store and you stocked up an entire freezer full of pizza.
45:08
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, you're insane.
45:09
[SPEAKER_03]: You're crazy.
45:10
[SPEAKER_03]: You're like, bro, the world's going to shut down.
45:11
[SPEAKER_03]: There's going to be the first lockdown.
45:13
[SPEAKER_03]: And this was like three or four months before the lockdown happened.
45:17
[SPEAKER_03]: And, and so like, you know, you kind of having this sort of doomsday preper mentality back then, it was very prescient, and then you were like, look, in February, we're like, this is a China virus.
45:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, this was released from the Wuhan lab.
45:31
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, what are you talking about?
45:33
[SPEAKER_03]: And then years later, it becomes,
45:35
[SPEAKER_03]: Canon.
45:36
[SPEAKER_03]: It becomes mainstream that this is actually factual and here's how it all worked out and so you know I think we're really all you know while we we walk away from this conversation thinking man That was way over our heads.
45:48
[SPEAKER_03]: He's you know this guy.
45:48
[SPEAKER_03]: He's got a lot going on, but you're really on the van guard of a lot of this stuff and
45:54
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I think we're all indebted in the sense to you for kind of like going out and building this humanitarian technology, even if it's 20 years early, at least, you know, somebody else will be able to pick it up and build what you started.
46:20
[SPEAKER_01]: So some money here to the camera.
46:22
[SPEAKER_01]: These are Argentinian pesos.
46:23
[SPEAKER_01]: This is 200 pesos.
46:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Here's a thousand and here's, you know, 10,000 pesos.
46:32
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, this was maybe, I don't know how many I have here, but this is maybe like $50 or $60 worth.
46:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I was talking to a local and he was telling me within our
46:50
[SPEAKER_01]: a thousand is probably less than the dollar.
46:54
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the devaluation of people are having over here.
46:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Like you don't have, I just came from Japan where there's bending machines everywhere and the yen has been the old stable for like 30 years pretty much.
47:05
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't even have bending machines over here because it wouldn't be a level software to update it with how much their currency is changing all the time.
47:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
47:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And as I was, you know, trading in, you know, my hundred dollar bills are looking at every left little thing and free goal and wrinkle and if there's I'll get tiny little care or something like they won't accept it because their money is just throw that over here like a little wrinkle corner like if this was.
47:29
[SPEAKER_01]: given to them.
47:30
[SPEAKER_01]: They just wouldn't take this.
47:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, as it's all so it's crazy.
47:34
[SPEAKER_03]: There's just the level of devaluation that's going on in America.
47:38
[SPEAKER_03]: We think, oh, man, this is really bad, but it's so much worse in all these other countries.
47:43
[SPEAKER_03]: And there's no concept of saving over there.
47:45
[SPEAKER_03]: They're like, say, oh,
47:46
[SPEAKER_01]: this this paper save this why am I going to save this I'm going to make it and spend it the same day because if I save it tomorrow it's going to be worth a quarter of that that's exactly right and when we came here they said don't change all your money in for dollars because there's like a parliamentary election like a midterms over here happened in a couple weeks and this is the currency could change as much as 30 percent depending on how that election goes wow and we think that's
48:14
[SPEAKER_01]: but it could be worse and always this is my own eyes.
48:19
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just mind more.
48:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we get upset about a 3% change in inflation over the course of a year and that is an election.
48:27
[SPEAKER_00]: It might change 30% crazy.
48:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's totally crazy.
48:32
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, Pete's mind, why don't we still have you.
48:33
[SPEAKER_03]: I just want to check in on your diet.
48:35
[SPEAKER_03]: Are you still living off of pizza and keto hot pockets and chicken tenders and the like some meatloaf in there.
48:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't eat as much pizza as I used to any more unfortunately, I got the ass of reflex, starting to catch up as well as my weight as well.
48:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I've added two shirt size in some of my move to Texas, even though I've tried to work out more eat better.
48:57
[SPEAKER_01]: There's just something in the food in the US.
48:59
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think, you know, what Robert Kennedy is trying to do, uh, he's got a lot of work ahead of him.
49:06
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's just, it's not just, you know, farming drugs, but it's, you know, bleaches and chemicals that are in our bread.
49:12
[SPEAKER_01]: They're even in our vegetables.
49:14
[SPEAKER_01]: So as we try to eat healthy in the US, like we're still creating more problems for ourselves versus every time I leave and I go to Japan or go to South America.
49:24
[SPEAKER_01]: I eat the same stuff.
49:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I eat pizza, eat hamburgers or french fries and a drink coat.
49:29
[SPEAKER_01]: And I lose weight and my skin clears up and I sleep better and I don't have heartburn.
49:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Why is this happening when I'm essentially eating the same thing?
49:39
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the ingredients are completely different.
49:42
[SPEAKER_01]: And that more than anything drives me to stay out of the US as much as possible.
49:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I miss Woodstock's pizza and I miss in and out so bad.
49:52
[SPEAKER_01]: But I just went to a random little bar here in
49:57
[SPEAKER_01]: And I had one of the best burgers and fries that I've ever had in my entire life, just sort of random place here and love it.
50:04
[SPEAKER_03]: I heard we might be buying more Argentinian beef.
50:09
[SPEAKER_03]: I just saw a news report and then all the American farmers are kind of going nuclear saying this is going to ravage the farming class.
50:18
[SPEAKER_03]: But I don't know.
50:19
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going to be interesting to see what happens with the American food.
50:22
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, well, maybe they can stop injecting all these drugs and vaccines into the animals.
50:27
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
50:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Stop pumping them full of steroids.
50:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
50:30
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I don't know about all that stuff.
50:34
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not an expert in this and really I'm just a guy in the middle who sees an opportunity.
50:39
[SPEAKER_01]: And as I talk to experts and I listen to them all the time.
50:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And it is very, very difficult to know what the truth is.
50:46
[SPEAKER_01]: But that's what science is all about finding out the true nature of our reality.
50:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And then figuring out what is our true nature inside that reality.
50:53
[SPEAKER_01]: What are we supposed to be doing here?
50:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And these are questions we should be asking over and over and over again and never accepting a conclusion and never saying, oh, we're just going to trust the science, you know, this is settled science.
51:06
[SPEAKER_01]: That's bullshit.
51:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything should constantly be questioned because we're figuring out new things and new methods is becoming of a new instruments all the time.
51:15
[SPEAKER_01]: And these truths and facts that we hold should be continuously tested and retested and modified when they're
51:24
[SPEAKER_01]: that's the whole point of science is to keep proving things raw and evolving.
51:29
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not supposed to ever saw.
51:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, change is the only constant.
51:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's a supposed to be as as uncomfortable as that can be.
51:39
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not here to be comfortable.
51:40
[SPEAKER_01]: We're here to grow or here to learn skills.
51:42
[SPEAKER_01]: We're here to improve things and improve ourselves as much as possible.
51:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's what we're supposed to be doing at the
51:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I prefer to simply be lazy and eat pizza and watch anime and still be in my little partner at the beach and just living in a very good civil life, but that was not chosen for me.
52:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I got a much more
52:06
[SPEAKER_01]: difficult past to walk, but I'm going to do it to hopefully make the other paths for people a lot easier in the future.
52:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's what we're supposed to do as men.
52:15
[SPEAKER_01]: We're supposed to be trailblazers, we're supposed to be providers and protectors, just like the people that walk the organ trail built with railroads.
52:23
[SPEAKER_01]: So now the people that can't after them can have an easier life.
52:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's the point of our existence.
52:30
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm following it.
