- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, this is Adam, host of this podcast. Don't
- 0:05Speaker 1: skip this. It's not an ad just a heads up
- 0:08Speaker 1: that this episode was originally recorded and released in January
- 0:12Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, so that explains why you hear a bunch
- 0:15Speaker 1: of holiday talk and why me and Connor are in
- 0:18Speaker 1: the same room both Back then, this episode was only
- 0:22Speaker 1: for our Patreon subscribers, so it's seeing the light of
- 0:25Speaker 1: day publicly for the first time. That said, if you
- 0:29Speaker 1: were a Patreon or Supercast subscriber, you'd be getting an
- 0:33Speaker 1: expanded version of this episode. You see. The reason this
- 0:37Speaker 1: is coming out this week is because one of the
- 0:39Speaker 1: things we talk about a lot in this episode is
- 0:43Speaker 1: Elon Musk's proposed neuralink device, which was demoed live to
- 0:48Speaker 1: the press in public last week. When we recorded this though,
- 0:52Speaker 1: it was still just a glimmer in a baby Elon
- 0:55Speaker 1: Musk's eye, but now it's almost sort of a real thing.
- 0:59Speaker 1: So I talk talk about that a whole lot on
- 1:01Speaker 1: the expanded subscriber only version of this episode. Subscribe if
- 1:05Speaker 1: you want to hear it Patreon dot com, slash on

- 1:12Speaker 1: you're already subscribed. Keep your ears peeled for a lengthy
- 1:16Speaker 1: update about halfway through, and either way, thanks, we love you,
- 1:21Speaker 1: enjoy the show.
- 1:32Speaker 2: Welcome to Conspiracy The Show with your hosts Adam Todd
- 1:38Speaker 2: Brown and Connor mix Pattern.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Welcome to Conspiracy the Show. I'm Adam Todd Brown.
- 1:58Speaker 3: I'm Conor mcspad. Happy New Year, Happy New Year, everybody.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I don't know if we said that on last week's episode,
- 2:03Speaker 1: which was actually the first episode of the.
- 2:05Speaker 3: New Year's This is the first recording of the New Year. Yeah,
- 2:09Speaker 3: and I think you feel that in the energy, the rebirth,
- 2:12Speaker 3: the foolish optimism.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, like a phoenix today, the few extra
- 2:17Speaker 3: pounds hanging off of our throats. Yeah. Probably. I got
- 2:21Speaker 3: a lot of people when I went on the road,
- 2:23Speaker 3: like on Pops, folks going like Connor, I thought for
- 2:25Speaker 3: sure you were a fat guy. I don't know. I
- 2:27Speaker 3: heard your voice. I'm like, that's a fat voice, and
- 2:30Speaker 3: I was like, well thanks.
- 2:31Speaker 1: So I never understand that because everyone has a social
- 2:34Speaker 1: media presence.
- 2:35Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just go look up what Connor looks like.
- 2:38Speaker 3: I mean, we're easy, Yeah, we're narcissists. I post pictures
- 2:40Speaker 3: of myself all the time. Yeah, and I'm very swelt.
- 2:43Speaker 3: Thank you very much.
- 2:44Speaker 1: And even if not, just hit Google images. Some comedy
- 2:46Speaker 1: club has a picture of Connor on their website. Oh yeah,
- 2:49Speaker 1: that will show up for you.
- 2:50Speaker 3: Yeah, the laugh Bucket and Cincy has a great shot
- 2:54Speaker 3: of me at nineteen with an afro.
- 2:56Speaker 1: How was your holidays?
- 2:59Speaker 3: I had a very nice, it's boring, domestic, suburban holiday.
- 3:02Speaker 3: It was a good time. Ye, yeah, nothing really too crazy.
- 3:04Speaker 3: I went to Canada right after, and I got it
- 3:06Speaker 3: just on the conspiracy front. The news in Canada is
- 3:10Speaker 3: fucking so relaxing. Like I turned on like the local
- 3:14Speaker 3: Canadian news when I got to my hotel room and
- 3:16Speaker 3: stories number one and two where weed is legal and
- 3:19Speaker 3: a lot of people were returning stuff after Christmas. Nice,
- 3:22Speaker 3: and I was like, you guys with your adorable little
- 3:25Speaker 3: issues up here, you got it made kids.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Well. I've had a long running theory that Canada politically
- 3:31Speaker 1: is always eight years behind us. Interesting, they're in their
- 3:34Speaker 1: Obama days right now. They got justin Trudeau. He's like
- 3:38Speaker 1: all suave and shit, and like they're they're living it
- 3:42Speaker 1: up in a liberal bubble right now.
- 3:44Speaker 3: And oh dude, Canadian Trump will be there and it's
- 3:47Speaker 3: gonna be funny.
- 3:48Speaker 1: And what's gonna be the funniest thing about him is
- 3:50Speaker 1: the immigrants he's gonna want to keep from crossing the
- 3:53Speaker 1: border will be us.
- 3:55Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll be.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Wanting to flee Trump. And it's like, well, we're not
- 3:59Speaker 1: going to go to Mexico.
- 4:00Speaker 3: Wow, clearly, Yeah, I mean that's it's old hat at
- 4:03Speaker 3: this point. I mean the people are just saying like, oh,
- 4:05Speaker 3: it just seems cliche, and it's like, you're just racist.
- 4:08Speaker 3: Yeah exactly, you're just racist, and you're not good at
- 4:11Speaker 3: remembering not to drink water.
- 4:13Speaker 1: So we're talking. Yeah, my my holiday was chaos. I
- 4:18Speaker 1: had to relocate my dog. They want to talk. I
- 4:20Speaker 1: took two weeks off and.
- 4:22Speaker 3: The witness protect You thought you'd recharge and then immediately
- 4:25Speaker 3: a big errand falls a metic.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Just a total nightmare and I've never needed a break more.
- 4:29Speaker 1: But I'm actually happy to be back to recording. Yeah,
- 4:32Speaker 1: my holiday, and uh, we're talking about I think something
- 4:36Speaker 1: really I had never heard of this before, the smart dust.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Yeah we're talking about smart dust. Had you heard of this?
- 4:41Speaker 3: Uh yeah, kind of yeah, just sort of like in
- 4:44Speaker 3: a in the vaguely, you know, internet sort of way.
- 4:47Speaker 3: I've heard it, mansion it, but I hadn't really dug
- 4:49Speaker 3: into it yet. You know.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Yeah, it is a it's a creepy technology, oh for sure.
- 4:53Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:53Speaker 1: It basically I mean, we'll get into it more, but
- 4:56Speaker 1: it's basically dust sized sense that can just be scattered
- 5:02Speaker 1: around any given area or implanted in your head, that
- 5:07Speaker 1: send information. They collect data, any data you want, temperature,
- 5:13Speaker 1: fucking videos, sounds.
- 5:15Speaker 3: It's almost like the Joker cell phone matrix from This
- 5:18Speaker 3: Dark Knight, you know what I mean. Yeah, it's a
- 5:20Speaker 3: lot like that level, sort of like omniscience is fucking creepy.
- 5:26Speaker 1: I almost wonder if that was, if this was the
- 5:30Speaker 1: inspiration for that.
- 5:31Speaker 3: Maybe, yeah, because because I'm sure this existed in some
- 5:35Speaker 3: sort of theoretical form at that time.
- 5:36Speaker 2: You know.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the one of the theories that they will
- 5:40Speaker 1: get to when it comes to smart dust is that
- 5:43Speaker 1: the original version of smart dust was just our phones.
- 5:48Speaker 1: All of our phones were the sensors that are collecting
- 5:51Speaker 1: all the data.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Which is also probably true.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Oh yeah, absolutely. And while we were wanting bigger and
- 5:57Speaker 1: bigger phones, they were making the smaller and smaller, so
- 6:01Speaker 1: we wouldn't notice.
- 6:02Speaker 3: Yeah. See, I think what would be cool is if
- 6:04Speaker 3: you know, smart dust is used to create a totalitarian
- 6:07Speaker 3: superstate where everyone's always being watched, like nineteen eighty four.
- 6:10Speaker 3: But the right the telescreens or microscopic is after every
- 6:13Speaker 3: new home is built, a guy like an amending black
- 6:16Speaker 3: suit just comes in and just yeah, a handful of
- 6:19Speaker 3: faery thus onto you, and he goes, good luck, and
- 6:22Speaker 3: then he leaves and it's just there forever and you
- 6:24Speaker 3: can never get it.
- 6:24Speaker 1: Yeah, that's kind of the theory.
- 6:26Speaker 3: At least Alex Jones sells like big air filter vacuums,
- 6:29Speaker 3: like you can catch the dust if you just turn
- 6:30Speaker 3: it on high and let it run for a couple hours,
- 6:33Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
- 6:33Speaker 1: That's actually one of the theories, at least as it
- 6:37Speaker 1: pertains to next week's episode, which is gonna be really interesting.
- 6:42Speaker 1: It's about five G Internet.
- 6:44Speaker 3: I think our first phone interview.
- 6:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it's our first phone interview with Lee Camp who
- 6:49Speaker 1: is a comedian who hosts a TV show on fucking
- 6:53Speaker 1: rt dot com.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Which but boy you thought, uh fucking I was mad
- 6:58Speaker 3: at the network notes with my dent Frodman hanging jokes.
- 7:01Speaker 3: So for a Comedy Central. I can't imagine the sort
- 7:04Speaker 3: of tomfoolery that that man has to deal with from
- 7:07Speaker 3: a network.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's gonna be. That's obviously gonna be our
- 7:11Speaker 1: first question, Like what is it like working for Russia?
- 7:15Speaker 3: And what's it like trying to do comedy in Russia?
- 7:17Speaker 3: Because I got to figure that's like trying to do
- 7:19Speaker 3: the you know, like so summer Olympic sports in Russia.
- 7:23Speaker 1: He's actually based in Washington, d C. So he's probably
- 7:25Speaker 1: a spot.
- 7:26Speaker 3: Oh that's right. Yeah, yeah, he's not living out there,
- 7:28Speaker 3: but I mean.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh, he tweeted a thing that's kind of
- 7:33Speaker 1: what inspired both of these episodes. He tweeted a thing
- 7:36Speaker 1: a week or so ago about how five G Internet
- 7:40Speaker 1: is a weaponized frequency and that got me to looking
- 7:44Speaker 1: into some shit. Yeah, and there's this whole theory that
- 7:48Speaker 1: five G Internet is a ploy by the governments of
- 7:51Speaker 1: the world to just create this surveillance state that will yeah,
- 7:55Speaker 1: like like.
- 7:56Speaker 3: They got us addicted with the first four g's, you
- 7:59Speaker 3: know that we're hooked, Like all right, let's drop the
- 8:02Speaker 3: fucking you know. Yeah, And so Dystopia Bama.
- 8:06Speaker 1: I guess smart dust plays into it and so does
- 8:10Speaker 1: Elon Musk. Thank god we get to talk about Elon
- 8:13Speaker 1: Musk today.
- 8:13Speaker 3: I wish you could just handle domestic problems, like, hey, Elon,
- 8:17Speaker 3: could we make a dryer that gets to close all
- 8:19Speaker 3: the way dry? You know, it's just shit like that.
- 8:21Speaker 1: You know he would fix it?
- 8:22Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, can't we just put him on like Jetson's
- 8:25Speaker 3: appliance detail and then leave, like, you know, someone with
- 8:29Speaker 3: a little bit better media training to try to make
- 8:31Speaker 3: hyperloops because I'm always torn because I'm like, well, Elon's
- 8:34Speaker 3: like a douchebag and kind of a like an idiot,
- 8:36Speaker 3: you know, But like, as a guy who's a fan
- 8:38Speaker 3: of science, I'm like, yeah, I like the idea of
- 8:40Speaker 3: a hyperloop or whatever like that. That all sounds great.
- 8:42Speaker 3: That's stuff we should be doing because I have to,
- 8:45Speaker 3: in order to keep living, believe that there's some sort
- 8:47Speaker 3: of techno socialist star Trek future where all of our
- 8:49Speaker 3: needs are handled and scarcity no longer exists and we
- 8:52Speaker 3: can become equal. And I think that's all part of it.
- 8:54Speaker 3: But it's like the guy that's doing that is also
- 8:56Speaker 3: getting high with Joe Rogan and you know, fucking grimes
- 8:59Speaker 3: and being a dreshback to his employees or whatever.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he's a real piece of shit. He's like
- 9:04Speaker 1: a real life Tony Stark, which is what people have
- 9:07Speaker 1: been saying forever, Like he's yeah, but he also has like.
- 9:09Speaker 3: The alcoholism and the demons or whatever. Like he's also
- 9:11Speaker 3: he's got the chupar. He's also a douchebag, right, and
- 9:14Speaker 3: he's not even good at one liners.
- 9:16Speaker 1: Yeah, but he'll mail you a flamethrower if you want one.
- 9:19Speaker 3: That's true.
- 9:20Speaker 1: So you take the good with the bad.
- 9:22Speaker 3: I guess those flames it's a roofing torch, I think
- 9:24Speaker 3: is what they had to cut like technically.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Like sell it as because if I lived in the Midwest,
- 9:28Speaker 1: that's what I'd be clearing my driveway with.
- 9:30Speaker 3: Oh for sure. Yeah, I mean it didn't flame thrower.
- 9:32Speaker 3: I mean it looked about as good as the super
- 9:34Speaker 3: soaker ones you make with gasoline when you're a kid,
- 9:37Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
- 9:37Speaker 1: I didn't know you could do that, but I might
- 9:39Speaker 1: look into it now as an adult.
- 9:40Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you get a You just get something that's
- 9:42Speaker 3: on fire and you put it in front of your
- 9:44Speaker 3: super soaker and you fill with gasoline. You make a
- 9:45Speaker 3: little flamethrower. You know, Wow, we did so much fire
- 9:48Speaker 3: that seems like it didn't go wrong at all. Oh,
- 9:50Speaker 3: it's there's ten trillion ways that that's a horrible idea.
- 9:55Speaker 3: But boys it cool. Well it's like lysol. You can
- 9:57Speaker 3: put lysol on your hand and light it on fire.
- 10:00Speaker 3: It doesn't burn you. Yeah, so you can be the
- 10:01Speaker 3: human torch with your buddies and Chino if you want to.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Yeah, and so yeah, Elon Musk actually
- 10:08Speaker 1: ties into the whole five G thing because one of
- 10:12Speaker 1: the one of the concerns apparently with five G Internet
- 10:15Speaker 1: is that it can be used to basically send signals
- 10:19Speaker 1: to your brain if you have the right sensors in
- 10:22Speaker 1: your brain. And you would think, well, we're we're years
- 10:25Speaker 1: and years and years away from being able to put
- 10:28Speaker 1: sensors in our brains. No we're not. Yeah, that's what
- 10:30Speaker 1: we're going to talk about today. And Elon Musk when
- 10:33Speaker 1: I mean, you.
- 10:33Speaker 3: Can't buy him at Walmart yet, but like it's out there. Yeah. Yeah.
- 10:38Speaker 1: And Elon Musk when he was on Joe Rogan's podcast, rightfully,
- 10:42Speaker 1: the thing people focused on was how fucking weird he
- 10:45Speaker 1: looked when he smoked weed.
- 10:46Speaker 3: Oh, it was hilarious.
- 10:47Speaker 1: It was terrifying.
- 10:48Speaker 3: I was watching it live and I was just like, well,
- 10:50Speaker 3: that is going to be a story.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Yeah. But what got left out of the conversation is
- 10:56Speaker 1: all the shit he said leading up to that, which.
- 10:59Speaker 3: Was Yeah, I mean, it's a wacky interview.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Yeah. And in the like very minutes before he starts
- 11:05Speaker 1: smoking weed, he talks about a product he's designing called Neuralink,
- 11:10Speaker 1: which is basically his theory. And he'll say, well, we'll
- 11:14Speaker 1: listen to a clip from the podcast, but his theory
- 11:17Speaker 1: is that in order for AI to not overtake us,
- 11:22Speaker 1: we have to merge with it.
- 11:24Speaker 3: Yeah, And.
- 11:26Speaker 1: He argues that we basically already have because we all
- 11:30Speaker 1: carry around these phones and then and it's just.
- 11:33Speaker 3: A manual version of right, yeah.
- 11:35Speaker 1: And that by carrying around those phones, we're already sort
- 11:38Speaker 1: of cyborgs.
- 11:39Speaker 3: Yeah to a degree.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Yeah, And the only thing keeping us from truly encompassing
- 11:45Speaker 1: that power that the phone provides is eliminating the need
- 11:49Speaker 1: for the phone. And you just get it in your
- 11:51Speaker 1: head and you can just basically think a question yeah,
- 11:56Speaker 1: to the Internet, and the answer will be read back
- 11:59Speaker 1: to you in your head.
- 12:00Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's it's gonna and then all of a sudden,
- 12:02Speaker 3: you'll just start thinking of hotel deals near you, right,
- 12:05Speaker 3: you know, and if they can, if you can get
- 12:07Speaker 3: search results, it's like they'll make it. So there's like
- 12:10Speaker 3: it's like, oh, I just thought like, oh, what is
- 12:12Speaker 3: the name of the lady from that show? And then
- 12:14Speaker 3: I know it? And then pretty soon there's gonna They're
- 12:16Speaker 3: gonna have pop ups in your brain. Right, It's like, well, great,
- 12:19Speaker 3: now we're this isn't horrifying at all.
- 12:22Speaker 1: No, Yeah, and it's it's a thing that seems like
- 12:26Speaker 1: such futuristic technology. But we did an episode of the
- 12:30Speaker 1: Unpopular Opinion podcast about terrifying News we missed in twenty eighteen,
- 12:35Speaker 1: and I believe it was that mi T. They developed
- 12:39Speaker 1: a device that can basically read your thoughts. Yeah, the
- 12:44Speaker 1: things you say to yourself. It can read that and
- 12:48Speaker 1: send it to someone. And you would think like that's
- 12:50Speaker 1: not there's no way that's possible. But you're still making
- 12:53Speaker 1: a sound that you hear in your head when you
- 12:55Speaker 1: talk to yourself, and there's vibrations and things happening.
- 12:58Speaker 3: Yeah, there's like electrics going off, there's chemicals or something like,
- 13:01Speaker 3: there's a there's a you know, recordable physical signature of
- 13:05Speaker 3: your thoughts.
- 13:06Speaker 1: And this what Elon Musk is talking about is the
- 13:10Speaker 1: merging of that. The thoughts in your head just become
- 13:13Speaker 1: your your computer.
- 13:14Speaker 3: Yeah, basically, and though there's some sort of interface that
- 13:16Speaker 3: can read them and understand what you're thinking.
- 13:18Speaker 1: You know, right, So let's listen to him. Uh, talk
- 13:22Speaker 1: about this for a couple of minutes.
- 13:25Speaker 3: Blink twice to start. Use your E signature to purchase
- 13:29Speaker 3: this at two in the morning.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Do you think that it's likely that we will merge
- 13:35Speaker 1: somehow or another. It's an augment what we are now.
- 13:40Speaker 1: It's an extra medium replace us. He's clearly got his
- 13:43Speaker 1: chest hair waxed.
- 13:44Speaker 3: Yeah, this is how I have conversations.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Is the one that seems like probably the best like us. Yes,
- 13:54Speaker 2: like if you if you can't beat it, join it.
- 13:57Speaker 3: He's talking about AIS.
- 14:00Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, so from a long term existential standpoint,
- 14:05Speaker 2: that's like the purpose of neuralink is to create a
- 14:09Speaker 2: high bandwidth interface to the brain such that we can
- 14:13Speaker 2: be symbiotic with AI because we have a bandwidth problem.
- 14:17Speaker 2: You just can't communicate through your openers.
- 14:19Speaker 3: It's too slow.
- 14:20Speaker 1: And where's neurallink at right now.
- 14:23Speaker 2: I think we'll have something interesting to announce in a
- 14:25Speaker 2: few months.
- 14:25Speaker 1: You can google neuralink.
- 14:27Speaker 3: There's a website copyrights or registered and.
- 14:31Speaker 2: If anyone thinks as possible, how much can you talk
- 14:34Speaker 2: about that right now? I don't want to drop the
- 14:36Speaker 2: gun on that.
- 14:37Speaker 1: But what's like the ultimate what's what's the idea behind?
- 14:41Speaker 3: Like what are you trying to accomplish with it?
- 14:42Speaker 1: Like, what would you like?
- 14:43Speaker 3: Best case scenario?
- 14:44Speaker 2: I think best case scenario we effectively emerge with AI,
- 14:48Speaker 2: where AI serves as a tertiary cognition layer, where we've
- 14:54Speaker 2: got the limits system kind of the primitive brain. Essentially,
- 14:58Speaker 2: you've got the cortex. You're currently in a symbotic relationship
- 15:03Speaker 2: with your cortex and olympic system are in a somatic relationship.
- 15:05Speaker 2: And generally people like their cortex and they like the
- 15:08Speaker 2: Olympic system.
- 15:09Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's pretty long. But
- 15:13Speaker 1: what he's getting at is that we're going to basically
- 15:16Speaker 1: skip having phones in the future and it's just all
- 15:19Speaker 1: going to be in.
- 15:19Speaker 3: Our head man, the AI stuff, like you, there's so
- 15:23Speaker 3: many different coming apocalypses. I forget about that one. Yeah,
- 15:27Speaker 3: you know what I mean like that, I saw a
- 15:28Speaker 3: study the other day that a robot like essentially lied
- 15:31Speaker 3: to perform better on a test, you know what I mean.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Scientists caught it lying and you're like, oh, well fuck,
- 15:37Speaker 3: you know, like that's a bad fucking news. Of course
- 15:41Speaker 3: that would happen, yeah, you know.
- 15:43Speaker 1: And yeah, and the thing with AI, you can't undo it.
- 15:47Speaker 1: Like the way AI works, it just constantly takes in
- 15:51Speaker 1: information and learns and uses that information to perform its tasks.
- 15:56Speaker 1: You can't rewind it and go all right, forget that thing.
- 15:59Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, learned like it's it's.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Just gonna keep it.
- 16:02Speaker 3: And you always think, like, do you make the super
- 16:04Speaker 3: powerful god computer that knows everything? And you put it
- 16:06Speaker 3: twenty stories below the earth and incasion in lead so
- 16:09Speaker 3: it's not hooked up to the Internet and you go
- 16:10Speaker 3: down there and you just ask it questions like I guess,
- 16:13Speaker 3: but I mean, yeah, like what the fuck do you do?
- 16:16Speaker 1: I always struggle with whether that's a future I might
- 16:19Speaker 1: be fine with just that all knowing computer that makes
- 16:22Speaker 1: all your decisions for you.
- 16:23Speaker 3: I mean, if it's probably it's more pragmatic than what
- 16:25Speaker 3: we got now.
- 16:26Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, like keeps me from having to pay rent.
- 16:29Speaker 1: What the fuck ever?
- 16:29Speaker 3: Yeah? Sure, yeah, if it's like really there's there's an
- 16:33Speaker 3: asteroid dipshit, Oh thanks God Pewter.
- 16:36Speaker 1: So yeah, one of the things, uh he brings up,
- 16:40Speaker 1: and he's brought it up previously. I don't know if
- 16:43Speaker 1: he brought it up on this podcast, but is the
- 16:45Speaker 1: idea of cyborgs and what cyborgs are all A cyborg
- 16:49Speaker 1: is is a person who, through some mechanical enhancement, is
- 16:54Speaker 1: now a super person. And his argument is that we're
- 16:57Speaker 1: already that because we have our phones all the time
- 17:00Speaker 1: and if you have a question about anything, you can
- 17:03Speaker 1: get an answer to anything. Like we pretty much know
- 17:05Speaker 1: everything right now. Yeah, like everything that's on the internet,
- 17:09Speaker 1: which is a whole lot. We all know it.
- 17:10Speaker 3: Yeah, we just have to pull it up. That's a
- 17:12Speaker 3: That's like what Common was rapping about me at the commercial.
- 17:16Speaker 3: You have in your power more technology than everybody.
- 17:20Speaker 1: I like that he keeps doing those shows even though
- 17:22Speaker 1: no one shows up. Yeah, I know, he's really is
- 17:24Speaker 1: a consummate professional.
- 17:26Speaker 3: Quite brave. There's a one janitor going again, really like,
- 17:29Speaker 3: let's just cancel the run. The deposit was a lot,
- 17:32Speaker 3: but ye, this has got to be hurting your soul.
- 17:35Speaker 1: So yeah. His his argument is that we have the phones,
- 17:39Speaker 1: we're already cyborgs. The next step is to just get
- 17:42Speaker 1: rid of the phones, yeah, and be super people and
- 17:44Speaker 1: just being born into our brains.
- 17:46Speaker 3: Oh my god. Yeah.
- 17:48Speaker 1: And it seems like that is technology that we're far
- 17:52Speaker 1: away from having, but we already have it.
- 17:54Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 17:55Speaker 1: And it's called smart dust, and it is. It's a
- 17:59Speaker 1: creepy fucking thing. Yeah, it's there's an article on CNN
- 18:04Speaker 1: from twenty ten, so we've at least had it as
- 18:08Speaker 1: far back as then, but actually longer. It's called smart
- 18:11Speaker 1: dust aims to monitor everything.
- 18:13Speaker 3: You know. It's funny is that you know it's twenty
- 18:15Speaker 3: ten because there's some sort of flash player issue.
- 18:17Speaker 1: Right in the video won't play, Which that's by far
- 18:20Speaker 1: the most annoying thing about CNN is I always want
- 18:23Speaker 1: you to watch a fucking video and it's.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Like, you know what, let's uh. I'm down with becoming
- 18:27Speaker 3: a cyborg if I don't have to update flashy right
- 18:29Speaker 3: now that I think about it, I welcome the great machine.
- 18:32Speaker 1: So the idea smart dust was first thought up by
- 18:35Speaker 1: a researcher named Chris Pister back in the nineteen nineties,
- 18:40Speaker 1: and it involves sprinkling small sensors the size of a
- 18:44Speaker 1: speca dust all across any given area, and the sensors
- 18:48Speaker 1: monitor anything the user wants them to monitor. They he
- 18:51Speaker 1: described them as like electronic nerve endings for the planet,
- 18:56Speaker 1: which that doesn't I know, he's trying to be gentle. Yeah,
- 19:00Speaker 1: but that sounds horrifying.
- 19:01Speaker 3: No, Like remember when there was a whole seniit planning
- 19:03Speaker 3: and Guardians of the Galaxy too, and how great that
- 19:05Speaker 3: worked out. You know.
- 19:07Speaker 1: It's just if there's nerve endings, that means they're sending
- 19:10Speaker 1: signals to one main place and we don't want that.
- 19:13Speaker 3: Yeah, who gets to be the brain? Right? You're probably
- 19:15Speaker 3: rich guys, Yeah, exactly, great. They they've got tons of
- 19:19Speaker 3: empathy and.
- 19:21Speaker 1: These nerve endings they're they're basically like I don't know how,
- 19:26Speaker 1: but they're like dust sized computers. They can provide real
- 19:30Speaker 1: time data about people, cities, and the environment. They are
- 19:35Speaker 1: sometimes outfitted with cameras or microphones to pick up video
- 19:39Speaker 1: and audio. And for all we know, there could be
- 19:43Speaker 1: thousands of them in this room right now. Yeah, because
- 19:46Speaker 1: there are. We'll point you to an article later where
- 19:49Speaker 1: you can see one of these things and it is
- 19:51Speaker 1: a speck of dust that's like it's teen ty. Like
- 19:55Speaker 1: if there were fifty pieces of glitter in this room
- 19:57Speaker 1: right now, we wouldn't know it. Yeah, it could be
- 19:59Speaker 1: embedded in the carpet. You could also never get them out.
- 20:01Speaker 3: You're never going to find all of them, right, I
- 20:03Speaker 3: mean maybe if you have some kind of ultra powerful
- 20:05Speaker 3: electro magnet that could maybe disrupt the frequencies, which is
- 20:08Speaker 3: probably gonna be something that will be in the market
- 20:10Speaker 3: soon via Info Wars Life.
- 20:11Speaker 1: Probably Yeah, yeah, that'll come from Maybe we'll sell.
- 20:14Speaker 3: Them, maybe we will add them.
- 20:18Speaker 1: So fast forward to twenty ten, Hewlett Packard. I don't
- 20:22Speaker 1: know why I said fast forward the article we were
- 20:23Speaker 1: reading it happened in two.
- 20:24Speaker 3: Two no October.
- 20:28Speaker 1: But one of the limitations that they they had was
- 20:31Speaker 1: that these sensors are at this time weren't small enough.
- 20:35Speaker 3: Yeah, at least that's what they said, like, oh my god,
- 20:37Speaker 3: it's the size of popcorn. How am I going to
- 20:39Speaker 3: kill everybody with this?
- 20:41Speaker 1: And Hewlett Packard announced a project in twenty ten called
- 20:45Speaker 1: the Central Nervous System.
- 20:47Speaker 3: For the Earth God and it's called Skynet.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, and its stated goal was to deploy a
- 20:55Speaker 1: trillion sensors all over the planet. But rest easy. This
- 21:00Speaker 1: article back from twenty ten made it clear that these
- 21:03Speaker 1: sensors were larger and clunkier than flex of dust.
- 21:08Speaker 3: Oh great. Yeah, so one of the skin cell they
- 21:11Speaker 3: one of the.
- 21:12Speaker 1: Things they said is that once you had it encased
- 21:15Speaker 1: and everything, it was about the size of a VHS tape.
- 21:17Speaker 3: Oh okay, which you could.
- 21:19Speaker 1: There could be fifty VHS tapes scattered outside my apartment
- 21:22Speaker 1: in strategic locations, and it would take me a bit
- 21:25Speaker 1: to find.
- 21:25Speaker 3: I mean, it's Burbank. They're probably is already. I mean,
- 21:28Speaker 3: some guys still got an acting reel and he's like, oh,
- 21:31Speaker 3: this will be the day.
- 21:32Speaker 1: As soon as they booked this mea on these campaigns
- 21:35Speaker 1: and so what they also reassured us about was that
- 21:40Speaker 1: each sensor does one individual thing, so it's not like
- 21:43Speaker 1: it's watching everything.
- 21:44Speaker 3: Yeah, look, we're just trying to make sure the carbon
- 21:46Speaker 3: dioxide levels are just kidding, we were watching you fuck.
- 21:50Speaker 1: But it's like that doesn't matter if they're all eventually
- 21:53Speaker 1: connected and going to the same place.
- 21:54Speaker 3: Yeah, that's your omniscience. You're fucking your Batman.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Yeah, and so well. This is a quote from Lee
- 22:02Speaker 1: tn who is an attorney at Privacy Advocate Group Electronic
- 22:07Speaker 1: Frontier Foundation. They do really good work. Check out their website.
- 22:10Speaker 3: Sometimes.
- 22:10Speaker 1: This is a quote from him. It's a very, very
- 22:13Speaker 1: very huge potential privacy invasion because we're talking about very
- 22:17Speaker 1: very small sensors that can be undetectable. Effectively, they are
- 22:21Speaker 1: in such numbers that you really can't do anything about
- 22:24Speaker 1: them in terms of easy countermeasures.
- 22:27Speaker 3: What about a really big vacuum that to start that might.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Be your best Like an air filtration system, Yeah, like
- 22:34Speaker 1: clean the filter every hour.
- 22:35Speaker 3: Are we gonna is there gonna be some are they?
- 22:37Speaker 3: Are we gonna start selling like clean rooms where it's
- 22:40Speaker 3: like you can go in the clean room and yeah,
- 22:42Speaker 3: oh but they're on your clothes, Oh no, or like
- 22:44Speaker 3: you got to take some sort of laser bath to
- 22:45Speaker 3: get in there. Like it's it kind of feels like
- 22:48Speaker 3: that it's gonna get bad guys.
- 22:50Speaker 1: Yeah. And one of the other things they use to
- 22:53Speaker 1: reassure us in this article, Chris Pister says that, uh, well,
- 22:57Speaker 1: there's private like it's just like Wi Fi where privacy
- 23:00Speaker 1: built in. And then he says the only people who
- 23:05Speaker 1: will be able to make this data public are the
- 23:09Speaker 1: people who are putting the sensors up. Oh okay, yeah, yeah,
- 23:12Speaker 1: so they're policing themselves. That's this. I feel better now.
- 23:15Speaker 3: Yeah. Who needs oversight when you have the powers of
- 23:17Speaker 3: a god? Well yeah, and like like the fact that
- 23:20Speaker 3: you think that four chan is not going to figure
- 23:22Speaker 3: out how to you know, get some sort of horrible
- 23:24Speaker 3: personal celebrity thing right and just blow the earth up,
- 23:28Speaker 3: like that is for sure, that's coming. That's day five
- 23:31Speaker 3: of the launch, you know.
- 23:33Speaker 1: And even if they hadn't developed the technology to make
- 23:37Speaker 1: this dust size, there's already versions of this happening. I
- 23:41Speaker 1: bring this up a lot on various podcasts, But LA
- 23:43Speaker 1: right now. They use these cameras called automated license plate readers,
- 23:49Speaker 1: and they're fucking everywhere. They're on light polls, they're in
- 23:53Speaker 1: parking garages, they're in parking lots, they're in everywhere. Yeah,
- 23:58Speaker 1: And all they do is take pictures of as many
- 24:01Speaker 1: license plate numbers as they can, and then they tie
- 24:04Speaker 1: that license plate data to whoever owns it. They track
- 24:07Speaker 1: it via GPS, and they send all that information to
- 24:12Speaker 1: a database that the LAPD can search yeah, and so
- 24:17Speaker 1: that's a version of this where there's just sensors everywhere
- 24:21Speaker 1: that you don't see, you don't know they're there, but
- 24:23Speaker 1: they're tracking all of your movements if you're driving in
- 24:27Speaker 1: Los Angeles and lots of other cities presumably, but.
- 24:30Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well they have like shot spot r out
- 24:33Speaker 3: of New York, which like there's microphones all over the
- 24:36Speaker 3: place and when gunshots go off, they can kind of
- 24:38Speaker 3: nail down where they are, which I guess is I
- 24:41Speaker 3: don't know, good. But it's like also like that's a
- 24:43Speaker 3: lot of power for them to you know what I mean,
- 24:45Speaker 3: Like it's and that's like it seems like, oh, okay,
- 24:49Speaker 3: so this is gonna be in twenty thirty two when
- 24:50Speaker 3: they get all the money and it's like, no, it's
- 24:52Speaker 3: been they've had it for a while.
- 24:53Speaker 1: They've been doing it since twenty twelve.
- 24:54Speaker 3: It's up and going. They got a guy just the
- 24:56Speaker 3: other day and you're like, uh shit, and.
- 24:58Speaker 1: What's crazy about techno like that. I don't remember where
- 25:01Speaker 1: we talked about this before, but with that system, when
- 25:05Speaker 1: that gun shot goes off, it ties into another system
- 25:09Speaker 1: that sends the police like whatever they want, like social
- 25:12Speaker 1: media posts from that area, like any so they could
- 25:15Speaker 1: just kind of Okay, well we heard the gunshots. Who
- 25:18Speaker 1: do we know that's a problem that's in this area.
- 25:20Speaker 1: Let's go check them first.
- 25:21Speaker 3: How is it that, like the police have this much
- 25:23Speaker 3: technology but they're still so bad at posting, Like they
- 25:27Speaker 3: still they have every tool they need to be the
- 25:29Speaker 3: best possible posters, but they're still like, well, just got
- 25:33Speaker 3: a bag of weed from this guy. And you're like,
- 25:35Speaker 3: all right, well you got all the guy that aight
- 25:37Speaker 3: of those black girls is still at large. I'm glad
- 25:40Speaker 3: we got the weed, though.
- 25:41Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's fucking puzzling. Yeah, I feel like a
- 25:44Speaker 1: lot of it has to do with them, like they use.
- 25:47Speaker 3: I want to be a social media intern for the
- 25:48Speaker 3: police state because I feel like, look, I got to
- 25:51Speaker 3: join up or I'm getting taken down. And I think
- 25:53Speaker 3: that's a good skill I have. Like if I could
- 25:54Speaker 3: make some memes for the fucking uh you know, the Stormtroopers,
- 25:57Speaker 3: I could probably pull that off.
- 25:58Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be a it would be a pretty
- 26:00Speaker 1: relaxing gig. Yeah, I would think just having to gloss
- 26:04Speaker 1: over police atrocities and then I don't get an enoughtopian future.
- 26:07Speaker 3: You're gonna have retweets, so they feed me to some
- 26:08Speaker 3: sort of mechanical starlac.
- 26:10Speaker 1: You get to do it all in your head.
- 26:11Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I just sit there like like just from
- 26:15Speaker 3: matrixing out.
- 26:16Speaker 1: Fucking fucking sliding things.
- 26:18Speaker 3: Sliding into twenty nineteen, like and then it's a boot
- 26:21Speaker 3: and a guy's teeth are coming out, and then the
- 26:23Speaker 3: teeth are labeled negative energy and fake friends, and I'm like, yeah, fuck, yeah.
- 26:27Speaker 1: That's the future we fucking want.
- 26:29Speaker 3: Yep.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Uh So yeah, La isn't the only city to be
- 26:33Speaker 1: using these. But one of the scary things about it
- 26:36Speaker 1: is it tracks your location via GPS, So once they
- 26:39Speaker 1: have a hit on your license plate, they can pull
- 26:42Speaker 1: that up and it's gonna tell them where you go
- 26:44Speaker 1: on a day to day basis. Yeah, and if maybe
- 26:47Speaker 1: you visit immigration offices a lot, and they can go,
- 26:51Speaker 1: what's this, what's what fuck's this about? Maybe we should
- 26:53Speaker 1: go check this out and deport that motherfucker.
- 26:55Speaker 3: Yeah, or like this guy is going to Popeyes, like
- 26:57Speaker 3: it's the bank that is.
- 27:00Speaker 1: That would be me.
- 27:01Speaker 3: Yeah, same, that would be me too.
- 27:04Speaker 1: Popeyes they have the best fucking fish sandwich.
- 27:07Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you're telling me about this, but just the
- 27:08Speaker 3: world doesn't know yet.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Yeah, they the location by me won't sell me one.
- 27:13Speaker 1: It's not on their menu. It's on menus yeah around
- 27:16Speaker 1: the country.
- 27:17Speaker 3: Do you go in and can you wrap with them?
- 27:18Speaker 3: Like you're cool? Like, hey, could I get a number radiot?
- 27:21Speaker 3: You know, like if idea like you're buying meth from
- 27:23Speaker 3: a bodega.
- 27:24Speaker 1: Done that a few times and it worked. But they
- 27:25Speaker 1: also shoot me down a lot. Oh, so what I've
- 27:28Speaker 1: taken to doing now is ordering a chicken sandwich with
- 27:31Speaker 1: just lettuce and then a side of fish with a
- 27:34Speaker 1: side of tartar sauce. And I just swapped those motherfuckers out.
- 27:37Speaker 3: Oh nice tartar sauce on bonus chicken.
- 27:40Speaker 1: Your authoritarian regime. Yeah, I will get my goddamn fish sandwich.
- 27:44Speaker 1: My parents didn't die fight in the Nazis, so I
- 27:47Speaker 1: could not have a fish sandwich at Popeye.
- 27:49Speaker 3: This is like the food version of jail breaking an
- 27:51Speaker 3: iPhone back in the day, where you're just like, oh,
- 27:53Speaker 3: I'll get around it, all right, I got me and
- 27:55Speaker 3: me and my black hat friends over here have figured
- 27:58Speaker 3: this out.
- 27:59Speaker 1: So let's talk about smart dust and whether it could
- 28:02Speaker 1: be used as Elon Musk suggests to basically, well, he's
- 28:07Speaker 1: not even suggesting it yet, but that's what he was
- 28:09Speaker 1: getting at, is that we need some sort of interface
- 28:11Speaker 1: in our brains and could smart dust be that. Yes,
- 28:15Speaker 1: there's a twenty thirteen MIT article from the MIT Technology
- 28:19Speaker 1: Review called how smart dust could Spy on Your Brain.
- 28:23Speaker 1: That's a pretty fucking straightforward headline. Yeah, and if you
- 28:28Speaker 1: want to go read the article you can. It is
- 28:30Speaker 1: full of very fucking detailed specs and technical shit. Yeah,
- 28:36Speaker 1: and it's kind of hard to understand. But I love
- 28:40Speaker 1: that in the span of twenty ten, we have the
- 28:43Speaker 1: CNN article where they're like, I mean, don't worry, we
- 28:46Speaker 1: can't make it smaller than a VHS tape to twenty thirteen,
- 28:50Speaker 1: and MITS like, we could just sprinkle that shit in
- 28:53Speaker 1: the air and maybe he'll breathe it in.
- 28:54Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be fine. Oh yeah, we're just so easy
- 28:56Speaker 3: wop ust the planet. We'll get a couple of concord
- 28:58Speaker 3: jets loaded up and just get that into the Gulf stream.
- 29:01Speaker 3: And then about it being about a boom.
- 29:02Speaker 1: And it talks about using ultrasound waves to communicate with
- 29:07Speaker 1: the sensors, but also needing to figure out how to
- 29:10Speaker 1: do that at a low enough temperature to avoid heating
- 29:14Speaker 1: the skull and brain.
- 29:16Speaker 3: Oh great, So we were trying to make them chilly
- 29:19Speaker 3: enough that they don't melt your head.
- 29:21Speaker 1: It's like nuclear weapons where we look the first time
- 29:23Speaker 1: we launched one, like before we detonated that, we were like,
- 29:27Speaker 1: it might set the atmosphere on five Yeah. Yeah, and
- 29:30Speaker 1: we were like, ah, let's do it in crossed and
- 29:34Speaker 1: that that kind of feels like where we're headed with
- 29:37Speaker 1: smart dust and five G technology.
- 29:40Speaker 3: But what oh yeah, that's coming up next week.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll we'll get to that next week. And so
- 29:45Speaker 1: the thing about smart dust is it's already real, Like
- 29:50Speaker 1: it's not it's the idea that they could get this
- 29:53Speaker 1: down to the size of a speck of dust is
- 29:55Speaker 1: actually it's happened.
- 29:57Speaker 3: They they did it. It's just a matter of like
- 30:00Speaker 3: making it more practical and distributing it, you know what
- 30:03Speaker 3: I mean?
- 30:04Speaker 1: And what really I don't know. I guess makes me
- 30:07Speaker 1: kind of suspicious about the CNN article where they were like,
- 30:10Speaker 1: don't worry, it's not it's not small enough yet. If
- 30:14Speaker 1: you go to Snopes, who I have such a love
- 30:16Speaker 1: hate relationship with. Yeah, but there was a picture in
- 30:21Speaker 1: two thousand and seven that was floating around the Internet
- 30:26Speaker 1: that alleged that Hatachi had made these chips, these RFID
- 30:31Speaker 1: chips that were the size of a Specca dust, and
- 30:34Speaker 1: they had photos of them, and they talked about how
- 30:37Speaker 1: they could be implanted in your cortex to communicate with
- 30:42Speaker 1: other equipment, and it was true. They've had these fucking
- 30:45Speaker 1: tiny ass Specca dust sensors since two thousand and seven,
- 30:49Speaker 1: since well before that article where they were like, don't worry,
- 30:53Speaker 1: it's not going to be that small.
- 30:54Speaker 3: Oh, It's like the like the SR seventy one Blackbird
- 30:57Speaker 3: is an airplane that like the government i think designed
- 30:59Speaker 3: in the fifties and like built and used in the sixties,
- 31:02Speaker 3: seventies and eighties. And it's like we found out about
- 31:04Speaker 3: it like later on, like in the late eighties, early nineties,
- 31:07Speaker 3: and like when we found out about it, it still
- 31:09Speaker 3: seemed futuristic as fuck, and they designed it in the fifties,
- 31:12Speaker 3: you know. Yeah, So it's like this is what you
- 31:15Speaker 3: think that there's not something exponentially more bad shit that
- 31:19Speaker 3: they just have, you know what I mean, Like I'm
- 31:21Speaker 3: sure they could teleport people and every like you know,
- 31:23Speaker 3: or whatever. It is, like there's something that fucked up
- 31:26Speaker 3: that they can currently do, and this is like a
- 31:28Speaker 3: good example or like all those like like DARPA, like
- 31:30Speaker 3: black budget like shit where it's like, right, all that
- 31:32Speaker 3: stuff going on like that, This is like the I'm sure,
- 31:35Speaker 3: just the tip of the iceberg, and like they're just
- 31:37Speaker 3: seeing stuff and you're like, oh, there's probably five things
- 31:39Speaker 3: equally terrifying to smart to us. So they're just like, oh, yeah,
- 31:42Speaker 3: we're just waiting until you know, some Arab guy blows
- 31:45Speaker 3: another thing up to drop this one.
- 31:47Speaker 1: You know what I mean, we are we are one
- 31:49Speaker 1: nine to eleven away from a real, real, real dystopia.
- 31:53Speaker 3: Oh and I'm sure they're getting impatient and like, all right,
- 31:55Speaker 3: let's plan another night and eleven and you know what
- 31:57Speaker 3: I mean, if you want a job done, right, yeah,
- 32:00Speaker 3: if you want to, yeah exactly.
- 32:02Speaker 1: One of the things I borderline like about Trump is
- 32:06Speaker 1: whenever he says something really really crazy and people are like,
- 32:10Speaker 1: where did he get that from? He mostly just let
- 32:12Speaker 1: out a government secret. Oh yeah, Like when he was
- 32:15Speaker 1: like we have invisible planes and people were like, no,
- 32:17Speaker 1: we don't, Yeah, we do, of course we do. Like
- 32:19Speaker 1: they're not. It's not like the movies where a genie
- 32:22Speaker 1: snaps his fingers and they disappear. But we have the
- 32:25Speaker 1: technology that makes planes virtually undetectable, not only to radar,
- 32:32Speaker 1: but if it flies above you, you won't even see it.
- 32:34Speaker 3: Yeah, and like you even see that.
- 32:36Speaker 1: I don't what movie was it where they had a
- 32:39Speaker 1: plane that had a bunch of mirrors on the side
- 32:41Speaker 1: and it basically made it. Oh yeah, yeah visible.
- 32:44Speaker 3: No, I remember that.
- 32:44Speaker 1: That shit's real. We have we have two planes that
- 32:47Speaker 1: employ all that technology to make them virtually invisible.
- 32:51Speaker 3: And again, whatever the SR seventy one of today is.
- 32:55Speaker 3: I bet it's horrifying. Yeah, you know what I mean.
- 32:57Speaker 3: I bet this shit can warp over your house however,
- 32:59Speaker 3: like a hell copter and drop smart dust into your
- 33:01Speaker 3: orange juice.
- 33:02Speaker 1: Oh my god. New Year's Day, I was leaving my apartment.
- 33:06Speaker 1: I live in Burbank, which is close to Pasadena. I
- 33:09Speaker 1: was leaving my apartment and a fucking stealth bomber flew
- 33:12Speaker 1: over here. Oh yeah, And I was like, what is happening?
- 33:15Speaker 1: It was the Rosebud.
- 33:16Speaker 3: Dude, that's the worst. When you're freaking like when the
- 33:19Speaker 3: Elon rocket went off, I was like, I was like,
- 33:21Speaker 3: up where I was driving up the one oh one.
- 33:23Speaker 3: I had a gig in like Ventura. Yeah, and I
- 33:25Speaker 3: see this shit happening. I'm like, well, I'm Here's the
- 33:28Speaker 3: truly horrible thought I had was. I'm like, well, I'm
- 33:31Speaker 3: outside of the LA city limits, so there's a good
- 33:34Speaker 3: chance that this will just blow up my friends and
- 33:36Speaker 3: everyone I've ever loved and I will survive, you know
- 33:38Speaker 3: what I mean. And I'm like, well, I can't text
- 33:40Speaker 3: Keith about it, so what am I gonna do? You know?
- 33:43Speaker 3: So I'm just like fucking watching, Like am I about
- 33:45Speaker 3: to have to? Like, like, you know, Cormack McCarthy's the
- 33:49Speaker 3: road alone. I don't even get a sidekick. Yeah, I
- 33:52Speaker 3: gotta hang out with a bunch of Ventura comics during
- 33:54Speaker 3: the apocalypt.
- 33:56Speaker 1: So, yeah, this smart desk technology, it exists. It's already
- 34:00Speaker 1: small enough that they can basically that that MIT article
- 34:05Speaker 1: where they talk about it spying on your brain, they
- 34:07Speaker 1: go into detail about how they would go about getting
- 34:10Speaker 1: it into your brain, because I don't think it's a
- 34:13Speaker 1: thing where it's.
- 34:14Speaker 3: A nude mountain dew flavor. Probably mountain dew code brain
- 34:22Speaker 3: really really love WI that would be the dream. Probably
- 34:26Speaker 3: I mean, honestly, that's what you could. You can say, Hey, freedom, la,
- 34:29Speaker 3: you guys want to not pay taxes forever?
- 34:31Speaker 1: Put this in your chips, right, like yeah, And it's
- 34:34Speaker 1: like the keep in mind that was twenty thirteen and
- 34:37Speaker 1: even then they were like, yeah, we could just fucking
- 34:39Speaker 1: open it up and sprinkle a little in there. And
- 34:41Speaker 1: what would happen then is you have these sensors in
- 34:44Speaker 1: your brain that can communicate with like internet and Wi
- 34:48Speaker 1: Fi networks. Yeah, and when Elon Musk said we have
- 34:51Speaker 1: a bandwidth issue, that's the only thing keeping it from
- 34:54Speaker 1: being a thing. That's where five G Internet comes in, because.
- 34:58Speaker 3: It's an incredible amou data you're talking about processing, it's.
- 35:01Speaker 1: An incredible amount of data, and it needs to be
- 35:05Speaker 1: super duper fast, which public Wi Fi right now is
- 35:08Speaker 1: not super fast. No, and four G networks are getting overcrowded,
- 35:13Speaker 1: there's too many devices on them, speeds are going down,
- 35:17Speaker 1: and that's what five G is going to open up
- 35:19Speaker 1: is more space basically for everyone to be on the Internet,
- 35:22Speaker 1: which is in theory a good thing. But where smart
- 35:25Speaker 1: Dust and AI and Elon Musk all tie together is
- 35:29Speaker 1: that's that's five G. That's what's gonna make shit like
- 35:32Speaker 1: smart dust work, Yeah, because instead of the dust in
- 35:36Speaker 1: your head having to communicate with a cell tower that's
- 35:40Speaker 1: miles and miles away, there'll just be mini cell towers everywhere.
- 35:44Speaker 3: Yeah, and they'll all like as.
- 35:46Speaker 1: You turn a corner, if you lose connection with one,
- 35:48Speaker 1: there's another one right around the corner.
- 35:50Speaker 3: Oh and by the way, like using the government can't
- 35:52Speaker 3: handle infrastructure projects, there's going to be a Tennessee Valley
- 35:55Speaker 3: Authority fucking for mind control towers like those will go
- 35:59Speaker 3: up sure quick. You know, yaw, new pipes for flints
- 36:03Speaker 3: and new roads for rural communities. You might be waiting
- 36:07Speaker 3: a while, but like the cell phone towers for the
- 36:09Speaker 3: mind control of dust, that's gonna be like, oh wow,
- 36:12Speaker 3: I did that was so quick. Great job, guys. It
- 36:14Speaker 3: was like, yeah, you planted a whole new rainforest of
- 36:16Speaker 3: like spying in a day.
- 36:18Speaker 1: And I sometimes I wonder, and we're actually gonna I
- 36:22Speaker 1: We're gonna ask Lee Camp this question on next week's episode.
- 36:26Speaker 1: I wonder how much of the United States and their
- 36:29Speaker 1: campaign against Huawei and smartphone makers.
- 36:33Speaker 3: Didn't you get a Wawei phone I have?
- 36:36Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 36:36Speaker 3: Yeah, right, They're like you should never get one because
- 36:39Speaker 3: the Chinese can spy on you. And you're like, well,
- 36:41Speaker 3: it's I'm not I got no quarrel with the Chinese answer.
- 36:45Speaker 1: I need to save hundreds of dollars, though I got.
- 36:47Speaker 3: No strong feelings about Tibet, So you know what, I
- 36:50Speaker 3: will take it to the Huawei phone.
- 36:52Speaker 1: Yeah, And but what that fight mostly entails is not
- 36:57Speaker 1: really their phones, but also their phones, but mostly they're
- 37:00Speaker 1: internet infrastructure because a lot of smaller communities. That's what's
- 37:05Speaker 1: what Trump wants to do is issue in executive order.
- 37:08Speaker 1: They still might that will basically outlaw buying five G
- 37:12Speaker 1: internet equipment from China. Oh and the thing is a
- 37:16Speaker 1: lot of smaller internet carriers in rural areas, all of
- 37:21Speaker 1: them bought their shit from China, and they're like, are
- 37:24Speaker 1: we gonna have to tear our stuff out now and
- 37:26Speaker 1: put in more expensive equipment? And the government's just like, eh, maybe.
- 37:30Speaker 3: I mean that not even probably them. Sure they won't
- 37:32Speaker 3: give them any kind of subsidy or anything. And not
- 37:34Speaker 3: that I'm worried about these corrupt businesses, but I mean, yeah, right, And.
- 37:38Speaker 1: I just I wonder how much of this idea that
- 37:42Speaker 1: five G could be used to spy on us. I
- 37:44Speaker 1: wonder how much that plays into the United States wanting
- 37:48Speaker 1: to get China's equipment out of here.
- 37:50Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure that they, like, you know, it's
- 37:52Speaker 3: it's got to get to the point where, I mean,
- 37:54Speaker 3: how long how good of a run did Volkswagon have
- 37:57Speaker 3: cheating those diesel emissions? You know what I mean? Right,
- 37:59Speaker 3: Like if you get ten good years of slipping one
- 38:02Speaker 3: under the radar with like implanting you know, like surveillance
- 38:05Speaker 3: technology in your you know, five G equipment, Like cause
- 38:07Speaker 3: I'm sure encryption gets more and more advanced than like
- 38:10Speaker 3: code breaking does too. But I imagine, like, you know,
- 38:12Speaker 3: it's got to be tough to fucking you know, get
- 38:14Speaker 3: in there and see what they're trying to do to
- 38:15Speaker 3: your you know, servers. So I could just totally see
- 38:18Speaker 3: this getting out of hand in them real for sure,
- 38:20Speaker 3: Like it kind of makes sense not to back up
- 38:22Speaker 3: the government. But I'm like, I get it. I'd be
- 38:24Speaker 3: a little jumpy about that one too.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Yeah, well, especially when one of the other things we'll
- 38:29Speaker 1: talk about next week is the active denial system, which
- 38:32Speaker 1: is a weapon the United States.
- 38:34Speaker 3: My book about dating, It's a.
- 38:38Speaker 1: Weapon the United States developed for crowd control, Oh, basically
- 38:42Speaker 1: sends some sort of waves on some sort of frequency
- 38:46Speaker 1: that like heat the skin and just make it.
- 38:49Speaker 3: Oh, you make you uncomfortable? Yeah, right, I've seen these,
- 38:51Speaker 3: like the like lasers that just make you go, I
- 38:53Speaker 3: gotta leave right basically.
- 38:55Speaker 1: And one of the arguments against five G is that
- 38:58Speaker 1: five G works on that same.
- 38:59Speaker 3: Free Oh my god, so they could just literally do
- 39:03Speaker 3: like a like the the Evil King that can snap,
- 39:06Speaker 3: like you know, like a Crusio curse from Harry Potter
- 39:08Speaker 3: or something. Yeah, whenever you.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Turn the frequency up a little bit, and now we're
- 39:12Speaker 1: all cooking because we're protesting in the wrong area.
- 39:15Speaker 3: Dude. The more the more I talk to you, Adam,
- 39:17Speaker 3: the more glad I am that I didn't finish college,
- 39:19Speaker 3: because I'm like, I remember thinking when I was about,
- 39:22Speaker 3: you know, sixteen seventeen, like I was leorrying about the
- 39:24Speaker 3: problems of the world, and I was a very woke teenager,
- 39:26Speaker 3: and I'm like, I gotta do something to stop this.
- 39:28Speaker 3: I gotta really educate myself and try to try to
- 39:31Speaker 3: help like balance out all this technology and all these
- 39:33Speaker 3: social issues. And then as I got or, I'm like, oh,
- 39:36Speaker 3: I'm doomed. I gotta have a good time. I'm like,
- 39:38Speaker 3: fucking what, I'll just tell pussy jokes in Nebraska and die.
- 39:41Speaker 3: That's great.
- 39:43Speaker 1: So yeah, that like it's all smart dust already exists. Yeah,
- 39:48Speaker 1: all the all of the scary technology that would have
- 39:52Speaker 1: to be in place for five G Internet to be
- 39:55Speaker 1: a weapon that's used against us already exists. And so
- 39:58Speaker 1: next week we're going to talk to comedian Lee Camp,
- 40:02Speaker 1: host of Redacted, tonight on RT dot com. Yeah about
- 40:07Speaker 1: the idea that five G is a weapon.
- 40:10Speaker 3: Wow, dude, it's funny, it's a it's all coming. The
- 40:13Speaker 3: White Head of Doom is forming. It is, you know
- 40:16Speaker 3: what I mean.
- 40:17Speaker 1: But at least this is our path to getting on
- 40:20Speaker 1: Russian television, I think.
- 40:21Speaker 3: Yeah, which is another bucket list item I'd like to
- 40:23Speaker 3: have before my brain gets shut down for you know,
- 40:26Speaker 3: being a discontent.
- 40:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I need some video out there to discredit me
- 40:30Speaker 1: in the future if I ever really stumble up like
- 40:32Speaker 1: Asa Basse. Yeah, I get that theory really going. And
- 40:36Speaker 1: then fucking Smurf for whatever his name is, Joker like
- 40:39Speaker 1: puts out video of me on RT dot com. He's like, see, yeah,
- 40:43Speaker 1: this fucking propaganda.
- 40:44Speaker 3: Agent keeps you under the radar, you know what I mean. Yeah,
- 40:47Speaker 3: so we should.
- 40:48Speaker 1: Wrap it up. Let's get the fuck out of here.
- 40:50Speaker 3: Connor say goodbye, goodbye everybody. Goodbye everybody. We love you.
- 40:58Speaker 1: Pop the planets as to destroyed.
