SPEAKER_01: Aren't you like an engineer by the time?
2:14
SPEAKER_02: I'm an illities guy.
2:15
SPEAKER_02: I'm an illities engineer.
2:17
SPEAKER_02: See?
2:17
SPEAKER_02: Reliability, maintainability, quality, sustainability, interoperability.
2:23
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's me.
2:24
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he's maintaining the robot.
2:25
SPEAKER_02: He's an engineer in theory.
2:29
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, my cohorts called called me a quasi-engineer in the car.
2:33
SPEAKER_02: They weren't nice guys.
2:35
SPEAKER_02: Quasimoto.
2:38
SPEAKER_01: Well, check this out because this is a new breakthrough.
2:41
SPEAKER_01: So China has a humanoid robot that is as fast as Usain Bolt.
2:46
SPEAKER_01: You would think I would run out of these robot stories.
2:49
SPEAKER_01: These are all 100% true.
2:51
SPEAKER_00: I actually saw the video of that bugger.
2:55
SPEAKER_00: That was incredible.
2:56
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
2:56
SPEAKER_01: Well, and there's a tennis.
2:59
SPEAKER_01: We'll get to that too.
3:00
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
3:00
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
3:00
SPEAKER_02: Is that the one that fell down, that fast one?
3:03
SPEAKER_02: I saw him running a track, and then all of a sudden, boop, he's down.
3:05
SPEAKER_01: Oh, I've seen the video.
3:08
SPEAKER_02: Four legs or two?
3:09
SPEAKER_04: The runner.
3:09
SPEAKER_04: Two legs.
3:10
SPEAKER_04: Standing on two legs.
3:11
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
3:11
SPEAKER_04: Well, that's whole X major improvement.
3:13
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's my peel.
3:14
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
3:15
SPEAKER_04: I mean, evidently there was there's robots in Ukraine right now fighting.
3:19
SPEAKER_04: And it won some little stronghold for them.
3:23
SPEAKER_04: It's happening fast.
3:24
SPEAKER_04: I mean, that was in the news a couple weeks ago.
3:26
SPEAKER_01: Now it'll be full terminator, robot on robot, Russian robots versus Chinese robots.
3:31
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
3:32
SPEAKER_00: And you know, it's it's hilarious for the the smaller country of Ukraine going against Russia, they're out uh technologying Russia combined warfare.
3:44
SPEAKER_01: Well, they do have the whole West behind them and NATO and but I mean it just shows it shows where we're at.
3:50
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's robotic warfare, AI warfare, and drone warfare now.
3:54
SPEAKER_04: And economic warf warfare with it, yeah.
3:56
SPEAKER_01: You know when these changed when they started changing the uh zombie movies to where zombies could run?
4:03
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and that's where we're at robots.
4:06
SPEAKER_01: Yes, he did.
4:07
SPEAKER_01: Now they can run at you like Usain Bolt.
4:10
SPEAKER_01: We we had on the previous shows about how they malfunction and they start just like doing a helicopter spiral and well, I used to watch that that uh competition.
4:20
SPEAKER_00: Um what is it?
4:22
SPEAKER_00: Like robot wars or something like that.
4:26
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and and they also were so funny.
4:28
SPEAKER_00: Can you imagine what kind of stuff they're gonna come out with now?
4:32
SPEAKER_00: It's not gonna be like little twisting things or little hammers and little flamethrowers.
4:38
SPEAKER_01: These things are gonna be like full-on karate kung fu robots, they're already prepping them.
4:45
SPEAKER_02: Lasers and energy cannons.
4:47
SPEAKER_04: I told the CEO once that the I won't mention his name, but I I didn't really like him.
4:52
SPEAKER_04: He he would sit on my couch in my office with like two iPhones going at the same time while he looks like a check-in with me.
4:59
SPEAKER_04: He's like, Yeah, exactly.
5:00
SPEAKER_04: That's why it was like he'd have, oh, we're here for our check-in, and he'd never make eye contact.
5:05
SPEAKER_04: And he had this friend who came in and audited all of us.
5:09
SPEAKER_04: This is what he did, and we had to create binders, massive binders for this audit.
5:13
SPEAKER_04: And he was bragging about this guy.
5:15
SPEAKER_04: Oh, he's got this, you know, hunting range where he charges people to come and kill these exotic animals.
5:21
SPEAKER_04: And I just out of my mouth, I was like, you know, we could have robotic fancy cars like Mercedes-Benz and Rolls-Royce's, and give these people weapons to go around hunting these cars, and the cars could run them over.
5:34
SPEAKER_04: It would be a real challenge.
5:35
SPEAKER_04: And like he put both going after the Impala.
5:38
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, he put both phones down and looked at me like, what on earth did you just say?
5:43
SPEAKER_04: Now that I think about it with the robots, it's like that could be instead of like these hunting safaris, you could hunt down these robots that are running around, right?
5:52
SPEAKER_01: Well, when you have robot on robot, imagine if China backed Ukraine and sent all the kung fu robots.
5:59
SPEAKER_01: And I wonder Russia only has spy pigeons right now.
6:03
SPEAKER_06: Right.
6:03
SPEAKER_00: But if you Ukraine's coming in with these Western NATO robots, I mean Molotov cocktail, AK-47, uh, here's another mind-bending thing that goes along with this is I just saw a uh an article about um AI and its future impact on virtual reality.
6:27
SPEAKER_00: And they said that AI could possibly create these uh like on Star Trek when you go into those rooms and it would be like you know, virtual rooms that look like you're in a different place.
6:41
SPEAKER_00: That they they actually AI now can develop these uh types of things.
6:47
SPEAKER_01: Have live updating environments.
6:50
SPEAKER_01: That's like a shortcut around teleportation.
6:52
SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
6:53
SPEAKER_04: You actually could another one that's kind of funny with that is your brainwave states are all frequencies.
6:58
SPEAKER_04: Those frequencies can be read, yeah, they can then be transcribed by AI to be interpreted to create environments based upon how your moods are and how you feel.
7:08
SPEAKER_01: Here comes the Michi Okaku part of Michi Okaku had Okay, drink up, folks.
7:14
SPEAKER_00: He said Michi Okaku.
7:17
SPEAKER_01: Michio Kaku had a study he referenced in I think it was Physics of the Future, where they were able to have someone think of the Mona Lisa without telling the researchers.
7:29
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and they recreated it from the brain scans.
7:32
SPEAKER_01: Yes, that he was thinking of the Mona Lisa.
7:34
SPEAKER_04: Oh, totally.
7:35
SPEAKER_04: They're doing that with dreams right now.
7:36
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
7:37
SPEAKER_04: So they're doing dream interpretation on your brain waves.
7:40
SPEAKER_01: Oh, by the way, I did have a little uh uh while I was out sick, I was able to do a little, I don't know if this will work on the pod.
7:48
SPEAKER_06: I'll knock that damn gold tooth out of your mouth and make it into a necklace for Stone Cold.
7:55
SPEAKER_01: You can't done that.
7:56
SPEAKER_01: I I have a little uh, you know, just as a little improv.
8:00
SPEAKER_01: You know, all I had the rock to.
8:03
SPEAKER_06: Shut your mouth your thumb, women, Patty.
8:05
SPEAKER_02: I I just wanted to so in the future, you'll probably find me in one of these little rooms of the AI environment, sitting at a table with a a continuous sushi boat going around.
8:18
SPEAKER_02: I weigh about 350 pounds.
8:20
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, how much of this is hopping behind?
8:25
SPEAKER_01: Inspector Gadget, he's gonna have his own cruise boat with his own uh self-serving tie.
8:31
SPEAKER_02: Have you ever been to a sushi boat restaurant?
8:34
SPEAKER_02: Oh, it's it's it's better than Saxon.
8:38
SPEAKER_01: Well, this ties into Will's uh I think they finally came in from back order.
8:42
SPEAKER_01: He already has the uh 19-year-old Chinese uh models coming in, robots.
8:48
SPEAKER_00: Oh, the robots.
8:49
SPEAKER_01: I don't know if they disappeared for uh so disappointed.
8:51
SPEAKER_00: I thought they were the real thing.
8:53
SPEAKER_01: I know.
8:53
SPEAKER_04: They look like the real thing on the video, but reality is so overrated.
8:59
SPEAKER_04: That's right.
9:00
SPEAKER_04: Who can afford who's gonna be able to afford reality anyways?
9:03
SPEAKER_01: Well, if you didn't think Usain Bold was dangerous in any way, it's just them competing with each other.
9:09
SPEAKER_04: I love that guy.
9:10
SPEAKER_01: Now we have electric wheelchair explosions.
9:14
SPEAKER_01: These digital wheelchairs that are almost like world controlled.
9:19
SPEAKER_01: So a Florida woman, it her electric wheelchair started making hissing and clicking sounds.
9:28
SPEAKER_01: Oh, and then it exploded.
9:31
SPEAKER_04: That was the timer going off.
9:32
unknown: Yeah, yeah.
9:34
SPEAKER_04: Now we wait a minute.
9:35
SPEAKER_04: That's dangerous.
9:36
SPEAKER_04: How much did she weigh?
9:38
SPEAKER_01: She wasn't even on it.
9:40
SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah.
9:40
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, those bikes blow up too, all of them.
9:42
SPEAKER_01: It might have been structural damage, though.
9:43
SPEAKER_01: We'll have to ask Steve.
9:44
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
9:44
SPEAKER_01: His engineering uh analysis.
9:46
SPEAKER_02: Uh uh, first off, check her will.
9:49
SPEAKER_02: See who bought her their wheelchair.
9:50
SPEAKER_04: Yes, exactly.
9:51
SPEAKER_04: There you go.
9:52
SPEAKER_00: No, I just had, you know.
9:53
SPEAKER_04: That's always the case.
9:54
SPEAKER_00: I was imagining she was like one of the ladies on the view, and it just the stress made it useful size model.
10:02
SPEAKER_00: Or maybe it was Whoopi Goldberg and she farted.
10:05
SPEAKER_00: That's what I was thinking.
10:05
SPEAKER_04: A backfire cause this.
10:08
SPEAKER_04: Especially in Florida, it's like eating all that artificial crab, and then all of a sudden, k pow.
10:16
SPEAKER_04: Well, they don't even know it's in that crab.
10:18
SPEAKER_04: They just say whatever.
10:20
SPEAKER_01: It's like if you have electronic Wi-Fi controlled wheelchairs exploding, yeah, and they're making basically predator sounds before they explode like it's a roadside bomb.
10:37
SPEAKER_00: Sounds like a fraternity brother, but yeah.
10:39
SPEAKER_04: This is sounds like are you like you're insinuating like this is like an Iranian hack or something, and they're just like the self, like the pagers were blowing up a lot of people on their wheelchair.
10:50
SPEAKER_01: The Iranians don't have to do it, they're already blogging themselves the robots themselves.
10:55
SPEAKER_01: I don't think we need Israel Iran involved.
11:04
SPEAKER_01: Well, remember that story from a couple weeks ago where there was the remote controlled robot chasing the woman?
11:09
SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah, yeah.
11:10
SPEAKER_04: There you go.
11:11
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you get run over by one of those chairs.
11:13
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's also remote control with those spy pigeons.
11:16
SPEAKER_04: Ah, that's right.
11:17
SPEAKER_04: That's just glad it's just pigeons.
11:18
SPEAKER_01: What if it was invasion of the body snatchers, but they just put a chip in your brain and use the remote like the Russians do with their uh their spy pigeons.
11:28
SPEAKER_02: If Mossad can put a a chip in a cell phone or a beeper, yeah.
11:33
SPEAKER_02: Imagine what would happen if they put one in your brain.
11:36
SPEAKER_02: Ooh, that would not be a pretty sight of the way.
11:39
SPEAKER_01: Well, they already did it to uh to Glenn Beck and everything he's supporting with the Iran war.
11:45
SPEAKER_01: So they're already pretty advanced with that.
11:47
SPEAKER_04: Glenn's hard to watch.
11:48
SPEAKER_04: He makes me nervous.
11:49
SPEAKER_01: Well, here's the thing with Glenn is he he kind of tries to hedge.
11:52
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he does, he does.
11:54
SPEAKER_01: Case of the future.
11:55
SPEAKER_01: He has the same position as Ben Shapiro.
11:58
SPEAKER_01: Uh but he makes it seem like he's just kind of Ron Ball.
12:00
SPEAKER_02: Uh Glenn Beck says that Massad is after him, or what?
12:04
SPEAKER_01: Oh, well, he uh he's basically come out at every stage of this whole Iran thing.
12:11
SPEAKER_01: So remember, Glenn Beck did a whole like nationwide tour, like he was a rock star, promoting the Iraq war and the buildup of it 20 plus years ago.
12:21
SPEAKER_04: I wasn't paying attention then.
12:23
SPEAKER_01: Well, and then as you go on with Libya and Syria and the Iran strikes and everything else, he he he tries to play it more hedged.
12:30
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I thought he was an anti-war for a while, wasn't he?
12:33
SPEAKER_01: He well, it he opposed the Iraq war like years later when he had the show on Fox News.
12:37
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
12:38
SPEAKER_01: But then when Ron Paul would come on, he'd be all passive aggressive with him and all insinuating.
12:42
SPEAKER_01: And he he's uh he's a slippery one.
12:44
SPEAKER_04: He's a real slippery one.
12:46
unknown: Yeah.
12:46
SPEAKER_01: Well, Steven Crowder kind of does the same thing.
12:49
SPEAKER_01: It's all like the Glenn Beck model of it.
12:52
SPEAKER_02: I watch Glenn Beck every night just for the diagrams.
12:55
SPEAKER_01: Cool.
12:56
SPEAKER_02: And he definitely does have those good diagrams.
12:59
SPEAKER_01: I I agree with that.
12:59
SPEAKER_01: He has a powerful delivery style too, and he can be very I just can't do it.
13:04
SPEAKER_04: Like, I I watch redacted, and I like to look at his wife because she seems so nerve-wracked about everything.
13:10
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, she's in a constant state of stress.
13:13
SPEAKER_04: Like, her looks alone are like make my week perfect.
13:16
SPEAKER_04: I'm like, yeah, we are falling apart.
13:18
SPEAKER_04: Just look at her.
13:19
SPEAKER_04: That's why I like watching redacted.
13:22
SPEAKER_04: And she has cool things to say, and her eyes just sharpen.
13:24
SPEAKER_04: It's like, oh my god, we are in the whole country's gonna collapse.
13:30
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
13:31
SPEAKER_01: That is that's an X Fox News act.
13:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they're cool.
13:35
SPEAKER_02: I like them.
13:36
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
13:36
SPEAKER_02: So what do you have to say to us today?
13:38
SPEAKER_02: Um uh definitely not Camera, definitely not Camera.
13:45
SPEAKER_01: Well, by the way, tied into the uh Usain Bolt robot, a Sony created robot named Ace was pitted against professional table tennis elite table tennis humanity.
14:04
SPEAKER_04: Come on, Sony.
14:05
SPEAKER_04: I'm rooting for Sony all the way, actually, on all this.
14:07
SPEAKER_04: But Sony, they might they might uh because they were so far ahead of everybody on robotics, they really were the little a bio robot dog, and yeah, they were doing all this robot production, and then all of a sudden Chinese China's taking the lead.
14:21
SPEAKER_04: That's not cool.
14:22
SPEAKER_04: So I want Sony, yeah.
14:24
SPEAKER_04: I'm I'm for them.
14:25
SPEAKER_04: The 200-year plan they've got, they rock.
14:28
SPEAKER_01: Well, and Japan Japan's doing it like a technological practice, like China's doing Kung Fu robot.
14:34
SPEAKER_04: China's doing military.
14:35
SPEAKER_00: China's a little more scary.
14:38
SPEAKER_00: This is, I mean, this is one of the in Asia table tennis is huge.
14:42
SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
14:43
SPEAKER_00: And I I can imagine.
14:45
SPEAKER_01: Isn't that getting big here now, too?
14:46
SPEAKER_00: No, pickleball.
14:47
SPEAKER_00: Oh, pickleball.
14:48
SPEAKER_00: That's the pickle.
14:49
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
14:49
SPEAKER_00: We still have to use our feet.
14:51
SPEAKER_00: Um but uh I mean is that basically pickleball?
14:57
SPEAKER_01: You're just doing table tennis running around?
14:59
SPEAKER_00: It's tennis.
15:01
SPEAKER_00: Well, or or real tennis and just a smaller court, you know, whatever you want to call it.
15:05
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, micro tennis.
15:07
SPEAKER_00: But uh the the other thing is if they're doing that, when how long till they start getting into their national sport, which was our old natural national sport baseball?
15:16
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
15:18
SPEAKER_00: Would you go to robot baseball?
15:20
SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
15:21
SPEAKER_00: I would.
15:22
SPEAKER_00: I would I would absolutely like that.
15:25
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I mean, I liked I like watching um the uh the majors when they had the guys on steroids.
15:32
SPEAKER_01: I was about to say that.
15:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they're they are already people that want to just allow steroids and like baseball, yeah.
15:37
SPEAKER_01: Like Barry Bonds is like breaking bats in half, like exactly.
15:41
SPEAKER_04: Maybe the robots might be good.
15:43
SPEAKER_04: I yeah, I don't know.
15:44
SPEAKER_01: There is something to say.
15:46
SPEAKER_01: It's like the Uncanny Valley odd thing is like with entertainment.
15:50
SPEAKER_01: How much of like watching musicians perform or watching movies is about the human talent involved?
15:56
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, even if it's subconscious when you're watching it, where when it's completely artificial, does it change how you interpret everything you're saying?
16:03
SPEAKER_00: You know, maybe all of us should invest in um XLB.
16:10
SPEAKER_00: Instead of major league baseball, we'll have X League Baseball, and we can have we can allow people to have stur steroids, robots, uh midgets.
16:20
SPEAKER_00: Is this a um product placement?
16:22
SPEAKER_01: It's like a zirk is absolutely your new brand.
16:26
SPEAKER_00: I mean, it was so cool when they uh I mean there was uh there was a midget steroid baseball.
16:32
SPEAKER_00: That's how I think it was in the 50s or something that they had a couple teams got midgets because then they had the short uh oh no um strike zone and stuff like that.
16:43
SPEAKER_01: Danny DeVito on steroids trying to do uh I I think it would be great.
16:48

SPEAKER_04: What's funny about this?
23:04
SPEAKER_01: Gorillas in the wild only live in their 30s and 40s.
23:08
SPEAKER_04: That's normal, yeah.
23:10
SPEAKER_01: When they enslaved this one in captivity, it's the food.
23:14
SPEAKER_04: Why did he live so long?
23:16
SPEAKER_04: Food.
23:17
SPEAKER_01: Did I say food, not being eaten to death, no predators, no competition.
23:24

24:07
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, whatever's down there.
24:08
SPEAKER_01: We don't want to look.
24:10

24:13
SPEAKER_04: I mean, like what aging gorilla?
24:15
SPEAKER_02: Yes.
24:16
SPEAKER_02: 69.
24:17
SPEAKER_02: So in captivity, he lived at 69 years old.
24:20
SPEAKER_02: If he was left in the wild, he'd only lived at 30 years old.
24:23
SPEAKER_02: That really proves that nature really is a bitch.
24:26
SPEAKER_01: It is.
24:27
SPEAKER_01: You know something.
24:28
SPEAKER_04: We should all be enslaved, so this whole tax thing is to our benefit.

SPEAKER_01: Is that worth well here's the thing that's weird?
24:33
SPEAKER_04: We'll live longer because we're taxed.
24:35
SPEAKER_01: Talking about nature being just a total madhouse.
24:40
SPEAKER_01: I was because everyone's oh, it's so beautiful, and animals and everything else.
24:44
SPEAKER_01: Hyenas eat their prey and keep them alive as long as humanly possible.
24:50

SPEAKER_01: It's the Bill Cosby uh Steven Biggie.
31:46
SPEAKER_01: What Jell Like some can I with that?
31:50
SPEAKER_00: Like some jello.
31:54
SPEAKER_01: Sprinkling some uh special jello.
31:56
SPEAKER_01: Get you smiling right away out of that post-trauma haze that you're in.
32:02
SPEAKER_01: Well, no, because this will be a shortened sick edition of the monkey podcast.
32:07
SPEAKER_01: Oh no, we're gonna kiss.
32:08
SPEAKER_01: I only I usually have like 12, 15 stories caught in lock, and now I just have six today.
32:14
SPEAKER_01: What happened?
32:15
SPEAKER_01: I know.

SPEAKER_01: It's the cold, which I think I got from you.
32:18
SPEAKER_00: Well, you guys gotta stop kissing on the mouth.

32:22
SPEAKER_01: We keep going to these weird clubs, and it'll be all of a sudden everyone's sick.
32:29
SPEAKER_01: I don't even want to go there.
32:33
SPEAKER_04: Open it up, look at it.
32:35
SPEAKER_02: Blame it on pine pollen season and the Carolina coastal area.
32:40
SPEAKER_02: Were we all kind of wondering, what was the original color of my car?
32:43
SPEAKER_02: No, yellow.
32:44
SPEAKER_04: You're so right.
32:45
SPEAKER_04: The pollination is where it started.
32:48
SPEAKER_04: Yep.
32:48
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
32:49
SPEAKER_04: We got hit with it.
32:50
SPEAKER_00: Is this another sexual innuendo?
32:53
SPEAKER_00: No.
32:53
SPEAKER_04: Oh the yellow mist outside that was there.
32:56
SPEAKER_04: Ah, okay.
32:57
SPEAKER_01: Yellow mist.
32:58
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
33:00
SPEAKER_01: See, it it has to be the pollen.
33:02
SPEAKER_01: It's not all these nightclubs.
33:04
SPEAKER_01: Now that gram's gone down, we need to stop the all the nightclubs.
33:07
SPEAKER_00: Well, that's true.
33:09
SPEAKER_01: No more porn video VHS tapes or nightclubs.
33:11
SPEAKER_00: Well, I want to take a little now that we're thinking about stuff going up our nose.
33:15
SPEAKER_00: Um I I have you seen those recent commercials uh against was it Norm Norman?
33:24
SPEAKER_04: Norman.
33:25
SPEAKER_00: Ralph Norman?
33:26
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, is is uh it's somebody that that had said something positive about uh decriminalizing um cocaine.
33:35
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
33:35
SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, that's and um and Alan Wilson, who has been the bane of South Carolina's existence, yeah.
33:42
SPEAKER_00: Um his his campaign is behind it because you know he's the one that it wants to regulate any type of uh you know plant or substance of plant substance, any anything that could you you can make a personal decision on because he wants to control yeah, he wants to control everything in our lives.
34:02
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he just did Operation Ganja uh on hemp stores.
34:06
SPEAKER_01: What a nice guy.
34:06
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
34:07
SPEAKER_01: Good thing he doesn't know about Kana.
34:09
SPEAKER_04: K A product placement.
34:14
SPEAKER_01: Don't don't push it.
34:15
SPEAKER_01: It would probably uh Operation Kana.
34:18
SPEAKER_04: Operation we want you depressed.
34:20
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
34:22
SPEAKER_04: Alcohol's fine.
34:23
SPEAKER_04: Alcohol's fine.
34:24
SPEAKER_04: Just as long as you beat yourself and other people, it's okay.
34:27
SPEAKER_04: But this antidepressant stuff, not cool.
34:31
SPEAKER_04: That's right.
34:32
SPEAKER_04: That guy?
34:33
SPEAKER_01: I thought I just saw a Mark Lynch ad where Lindsey Graham was going, oh, he wants to legalize crack because he was on drugs in like the 80s.
34:41
SPEAKER_01: Oh uh, but yeah, I missed that uh Norman thing.
34:45
SPEAKER_00: Well, I I think it was I you know, and I don't quote me.
34:48
SPEAKER_00: I have no idea.
34:49
SPEAKER_00: Maybe it was Lynch.
34:51
SPEAKER_00: I have no idea.
34:51
SPEAKER_00: I can't remember what politician they're attacking.
34:54
SPEAKER_01: Well, and I try to avoid South Carolina politicians.
34:58
SPEAKER_01: South Carolina political stuff is so crooked and nasty.
35:03
SPEAKER_00: Well, I I I I watch a lot of YouTube and force the algorithms, you know, pump all that crud into crackhead uh politicians and legalizing uh legalizing crack would actually reduce the number of deaths associated with crack.
35:19
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, poor child.
35:20
SPEAKER_02: Why did why did the b the haw?
35:23
SPEAKER_02: The chicken why did the hawk say that?
35:25
SPEAKER_03: Well, why didn't you?
35:26
SPEAKER_02: Because what is what do we do?
35:27
SPEAKER_02: We we make something illegal, and all of a sudden there's no place to go to resolve your differences.
35:32
SPEAKER_02: You can't go to court for contractual differences.
35:35
SPEAKER_02: No, you take it out on the street with a gun.
35:37
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
35:38
SPEAKER_01: Which is why we have so much gun violence, is because of the drug war.
35:43
SPEAKER_01: It's because of guns.
35:44
SPEAKER_04: Guns do it, yeah.
35:46
SPEAKER_04: Those guns moved themselves.
35:47
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's right.
35:49
SPEAKER_04: Wait, wait, there's another one on your list that we didn't get to that wasn't added.
35:53
SPEAKER_04: They're making cigarettes illegal in the United Kingdom past a certain age.
35:58
SPEAKER_04: Oh, I heard that that was true.
36:00
SPEAKER_04: Is it true?
36:01
SPEAKER_04: Because I read that headline story, and I'm like, no way they're just think about that.
36:05
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I like that.
36:06
SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna make a million dollars because I'm gonna be running cigarettes in the black market in the UK.
36:11
SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna make a lot of money.
36:12
SPEAKER_01: Old El Chapo, uh Hoffman.
36:14
SPEAKER_01: Crazy.
36:15
SPEAKER_04: That's a great idea.
36:16
SPEAKER_04: Those people, they wanted to make knives illegal too at one point.
36:19
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
36:20
SPEAKER_01: I mean, what's next?
36:21
SPEAKER_00: Only the turban guys have I mean, this is weird.
36:24
SPEAKER_00: And and I just I just did research uh for my liberty on nicotine.
36:29
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's got a big headline.
36:31
SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah.
36:32
SPEAKER_00: But I I the what I fell into the rabbit hole on is how much um tobacco, and especially cigars, was a crucible for comparing the economic systems of capitalism and communism.
36:50
SPEAKER_00: Oh because Cuba by the 1950s had a virtual lock on the cigar industry.
37:01
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I mean, they were the giant, they were the capital of it all.
37:05
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
37:06
SPEAKER_00: And as soon as the revolution took it took it over, they collapsed so quickly.
37:13
SPEAKER_00: It was crazy.
37:15
SPEAKER_00: They went from 140 uh major brands to less than 40.
37:20
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, but weren't they made illegal?
37:22
SPEAKER_04: You weren't allowed to export and improvise.
37:24
SPEAKER_02: You fled the Dominican Republic, they fled the Nicaragua making good cigars.
37:29
SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
37:30
SPEAKER_04: So the good cigar makers left.
37:32
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it didn't have anything to do with you were no longer allowed to buy them.
37:35
SPEAKER_04: So that must have played some kind of a role.
37:38
SPEAKER_00: Oh no, well, the rest of the world, I mean, we embarked the biggest.
37:42
SPEAKER_00: The rest of the world was still still doing it.
37:44
SPEAKER_00: And um the yeah, I mean and the only thing that's keeping them alive really in the cigar business is is uh is uh unintentional.
37:56
SPEAKER_00: It's it's like uh you if you can't get something and it's restricted, that is essentially raises the price.
38:05
SPEAKER_00: Raises the price and so on.
38:08
SPEAKER_00: But the quality is so bad you don't know you're getting a lot of money.
38:13
SPEAKER_00: Well, I mean actually a Cuban cigar is really, really good if you get a good one.
38:19
SPEAKER_00: But the problem is you buy a very expensive box of Cuban cigars, which will be four times more than uh a comparable cigar would be on the market, and you don't know what you're gonna get in the box.
38:33
SPEAKER_00: Maybe 30% of them are really decent.
38:37
SPEAKER_04: Are they even from Cuba?
38:38
SPEAKER_00: Maybe so yeah, they're they're they're pretty much from Cuba.
38:41
SPEAKER_01: And they have counterfeit issues with the people uh getting fake Cuban cigars when they're not not really.
38:47
SPEAKER_00: I mean, uh some people that are new into cigars get confused between uh cohibas coming out of uh out of uh uh out of Cuba and the cohibas coming out of the original family that's coming out of uh Dominican Republic, and so but the bands are different, the prices are different, the quality is much better outside of Cuba.
39:12
SPEAKER_01: Is there some reason in Cuba it's all concentrated, like their soil or temperature soil plays a huge role in that?
39:19
SPEAKER_00: Soil, but they just uh those those Cuban um the original guys in the 40s and 50s, that the those families that came up through there, their their dedicated uh to the the craft it was and and innovation was really the thing.
39:36
SPEAKER_00: They were more innovative than anybody else in the world was with and they were competing with the Dutch, they were competing with us in the United States.
39:46
SPEAKER_00: Um and but they were so innovative, they were great.
39:49
SPEAKER_00: And as soon as the uh uh communists took over and they had it done by committee, yeah, innovation went down the door instantly.
40:00
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's interesting because when we did the whole David Spang hemp band thing they were doing in the state, and I talked to him for like over an hour on the phone, he was going through all the precise, delicate stages of even processing hemp.
40:10
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and all the quality control and everything to go through.
40:15
SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
40:15
SPEAKER_04: But hemp's kind of funny because it it varies between indoor and outdoor.
40:20
SPEAKER_04: Like if you were to get outdoor cannabis, you're gonna want to aim for Northern California and uh Oregon, right?
40:28
SPEAKER_04: That whole triangle there has the soil and it has the sun and it's got the best flavor and the best age.
40:34
SPEAKER_00: The mountains of Hawaii.
40:36
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that too, but it Hawaii it's a different kind of taste.
40:40
SPEAKER_04: It really, really is.
40:42
SPEAKER_04: I mean, Oregon is really good, but I mean they do so much indoor because they want to up the THC.
40:48
SPEAKER_04: They're less about the taste and the feeling on your lungs and and in your throat and your mouth.
40:53
SPEAKER_04: Whereas if you appreciate that, you want a good outdoor, grown cannabis.
40:58
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's fine.
40:59
SPEAKER_04: And that and that farm bill changed that tremendously because states didn't figure out how to get the THC in, so they started breeding really high-quality tasting cannabis for CBD.
41:13
SPEAKER_04: And that changed it completely.
41:15
SPEAKER_04: Whereas the West didn't have that.
41:16
SPEAKER_04: The West was focused only on THC, which brought the taste and the quality down and brought the THC up.
41:23
SPEAKER_01: Well, that shows the innovation in the private sector.
41:26
SPEAKER_01: When you legalize it and you allow people to make their own decisions and let the market decide.
41:31
SPEAKER_04: But what if the market the thing is, what if the market decided that though?
41:35
SPEAKER_04: But that's the funny thing.
41:36
SPEAKER_04: Because I think the market initially, I don't know for how many years it would have taken, they would have all targeted THC, up THC.
41:42
SPEAKER_04: They would have done these concentrates to up to THC quality.
41:45
SPEAKER_04: Whereas when the market was forced to not have THC, they upped the quality of the taste and the effects of CBD, which changed this market dynamic.
41:54
SPEAKER_04: And now they're killing that.
41:56
SPEAKER_04: So this farm bill, when it changes, they're not going to be able to produce flour for CBD.
42:02
SPEAKER_04: It just won't pass the regulation.
42:04
SPEAKER_04: So it's all gonna go illegal again.
42:07
SPEAKER_02: My CBD stash is about to run off, run out.
42:10
SPEAKER_02: So looks like I need to talk to you after the show.
42:14
SPEAKER_01: The CBD, the king of CBD, Darren.
42:18
SPEAKER_01: Well, here's the thing about that vape it.
42:20
SPEAKER_02: I mean, don't mess with my gummy.
42:23
SPEAKER_01: Well, and it was the alcohol lobby that had them during the when they ended the shutdown.
42:29
SPEAKER_01: Mitch McConnell was paid like a million dollars, and he did it to specifically take that one exemption out of the farm bill.
42:36
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
42:36
SPEAKER_01: So you have all these competing lobbies.
42:39
SPEAKER_04: They're still losing in alcohol, though.
42:41
SPEAKER_04: That's the funny thing.
42:42
SPEAKER_04: Alcohol consumption's going down the toilet.
42:44
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
42:44
SPEAKER_01: Well, that shows you.
42:45
SPEAKER_04: And they're still gonna lose.
42:46
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's what's funny about when you mentioned prices going up.
42:50
SPEAKER_01: That's how Crips and Bloods and Pagans and Hell's Angels and cartels, that's how they make money.
42:56
SPEAKER_01: That's how they're gonna do it.
42:57
SPEAKER_01: You make it illegal if they're highly addictive, people want them.
43:02
SPEAKER_01: It's like banning sugar or something.
43:03
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and you just bring violence and death and high prices, and it's not a big deal.
43:08
SPEAKER_04: But see, they make money off of that too.
43:10
SPEAKER_04: So their police force is uh a money-making operation, and then their counterops is a money-making operation, and they can hide their money through there.
43:19
SPEAKER_02: And we all know this.
43:20
SPEAKER_02: That's my main complaint about Alan Wilson, and he does not understand basic economics, no understanding whatsoever.
43:27
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, or liberty.
43:29
SPEAKER_01: He's the ultimate paternalist, and you get a lot of that in the state on gambling, on almost sports betting is exploding nationwide.
43:39
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and you can't get anything here.
43:42
SPEAKER_04: You can go on that boat.
43:44
SPEAKER_01: You well, you can go on the boat and in uh international waters and the Sun Cruise Casino on the little river.
43:50
SPEAKER_04: Insert the right near me.
43:52
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and in insert the boat when I go hiking and they're all they just look like zombies to me.
43:57
SPEAKER_04: Oh, look, it's a big boat with zombies, or I don't know They're not going anywhere.
44:04
SPEAKER_00: I want to get their advertising.
44:06
SPEAKER_00: Sorry.
44:07
SPEAKER_00: They're happy zombies.
44:10
SPEAKER_02: Buy Canada from Ka.
44:13
SPEAKER_02: Move to South Carolina.
44:14
SPEAKER_02: You don't have to think about anything.
44:16
SPEAKER_02: Our government will do all the thinking for you.
44:19
SPEAKER_02: That's good.
44:19
SPEAKER_04: Just don't go to Alabama.
44:21
SPEAKER_04: You don't want to go to Alabama, people from the West.
44:24
SPEAKER_04: Don't you?
44:28
SPEAKER_04: Just a reminder, don't go to Alabama.
44:30
SPEAKER_01: Don't try to find this beach place.
44:32
SPEAKER_04: Tennessee's the place for you.
44:36
SPEAKER_01: Darren's doing some Psyop shit.
44:38
SPEAKER_04: You don't want to even look at Alabama.
44:41
SPEAKER_04: Tennessee.
44:41
SPEAKER_01: Well, that you know, another thing that's funny about the violence and the prices and everything, the RAN Corporation did a huge study and the Department of Justice that over 80% of gun deaths are drug and gang related.
44:56
SPEAKER_01: If you just legalize drugs just across the board, like it's like it's 1910.
45:02
SPEAKER_01: No FDA, no drug laws, just blank slate again, we would have the violent crime of like Norway.
45:09
SPEAKER_01: With all the guns.
45:11
SPEAKER_01: Because it's not the guns correlating with it.
45:14
SPEAKER_01: It's always the guns.
45:16
SPEAKER_01: That's one of the things.
45:17
SPEAKER_04: But there is drug violence.
45:18
SPEAKER_04: There is drug violence on its own.
45:21
SPEAKER_04: We have illegal drugs.
45:22
SPEAKER_04: I mean, alcohol violence.
45:24
SPEAKER_04: Alcohol violence is pretty damn bad.
45:26
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
45:26
SPEAKER_04: Well, it is bad.
45:27
SPEAKER_04: Statistically proven bad.
45:30
SPEAKER_04: So is life expectancy.
45:32
SPEAKER_01: Well, and here's the thing Prohibition is when we got our first gun laws.
45:37
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
45:37
SPEAKER_01: It's when we had the highest crime rate in US history.
45:41
SPEAKER_01: Was the second to last year of prohibition?
45:43
SPEAKER_04: Well, it was an acceptable drug.
45:44
SPEAKER_04: It was easy to produce.
45:45
SPEAKER_04: It came from from ancient times.
45:49
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
45:50
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
45:50
SPEAKER_04: So but it is a very violent drug.
45:53
SPEAKER_01: It's amazing going through American history how many people supported prohibition, like Susan McAnthony, Abraham Lincoln.
46:00
SPEAKER_01: They still do.
46:01
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
46:01
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
46:02
SPEAKER_01: And prohibition was the ultimate.
46:04
SPEAKER_01: You know, something interesting about how it ended is it's kind of like how uh weed and sports betting and things like that are going now.
46:11
SPEAKER_01: Is uh they basically just state by state nullified the 18th Amendment.
46:16
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's right.
46:17
SPEAKER_01: And then and by the time half the states had done it, they finally just passed the 21st Amendment and got rid of that.
46:21
SPEAKER_04: That's so slow and stupid.
46:23
SPEAKER_04: I mean, that's just another example of how we can slow things down.
46:27
SPEAKER_01: Well, and googling back to this UK thing with cigarettes, this is what happens when you have uh zero principles of liberty, and your whole mindset is just consequentialist, and the whole premise is that you can control everyone like Alan Wilson.
46:43
SPEAKER_01: I mean, that's about if they're gonna straight up ban tobacco, yeah.
46:47
SPEAKER_02: They they are.
46:48
SPEAKER_04: They're working on it, they're doing it.
46:49
SPEAKER_02: It's a nanny state mentality.
46:51
SPEAKER_02: You're too stupid to think for yourself, so leave it up to us, the government.
46:56
SPEAKER_02: We're gonna do your thinking for you.
46:57
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and that's where you end up.
46:59
SPEAKER_04: You have stinking, you have stinking thinking, and you'll hurt somebody else, so we need to stop that.
47:04
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, well, because you can't stop yourself.
47:06
SPEAKER_01: Are they gonna stop vapes?
47:08
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they'll stop it all.
47:10
SPEAKER_01: Oh my god.
47:11
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they'll stop it all.
47:12
SPEAKER_04: And so they'll create this crazy illegal market and importation market and violent market, and they'll and then they'll be the people on the sidelines making money from it.
47:21
SPEAKER_04: They'll profit.
47:21
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they'll profit from it.
47:23
SPEAKER_01: Yep.
47:23
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's remember that.
47:24
SPEAKER_04: A lot of corruption will profit from it.
47:26
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
47:27
SPEAKER_01: Remember the Eric Gardner thing where he was selling Lucy's single cigarettes?
47:30
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think.
47:31
SPEAKER_01: There's a market, there's a market for it.
47:33
SPEAKER_01: And then the reason that was happening, and the police were called because it's illegal to sell Lucy's, is because the people go down south to the Carolinas, get cheap tobacco.
47:42
SPEAKER_04: In Carolina?
47:43
SPEAKER_01: They go up to Northeast where they have crazy taxes.
47:47
SPEAKER_04: I'm not even aware there's a northeast.
47:49
SPEAKER_04: I'm not even gonna go anywhere near it.
47:51
SPEAKER_04: I'm glad they're up there.
47:55
SPEAKER_04: Caroline goes, hey, what's going on up there?
47:57
SPEAKER_04: Are you buying cigarettes?
47:58
SPEAKER_04: Good.
47:59
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I don't think they're gonna be able to afford to leave.
48:02
SPEAKER_01: And that's Well, Mom Donnie just did uh he's taxing any second homes.
48:07
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
48:08
SPEAKER_01: And they're basically still Larry Sharp was on his podcast talking about it.
48:12
SPEAKER_01: They're basically starting the process of not allowing you to leave New York.
48:15
SPEAKER_04: Will there be an exit tax to leave?
48:16
SPEAKER_01: Or is that we're talking about well, what they're starting is like yearly property taxes or something on second homes.
48:22
SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
48:24
SPEAKER_04: Vacant homes, right?
48:25
SPEAKER_01: Vacant or rented or whatever they are.
48:27
SPEAKER_04: They want to do that in San Francisco too.
48:29
SPEAKER_04: It's like if you have a vacant place they want to charge you.
48:31

48:46
SPEAKER_01: You call Mike, you get the good fellas uh well.
48:50
SPEAKER_00: That's why Mike's not here today.
48:52
SPEAKER_00: He's he's got a job.
48:54
SPEAKER_00: He's got a job to do.
48:57
SPEAKER_04: I thought he was a canna rep.
49:02
SPEAKER_04: Well, and that's maybe not.
49:04
SPEAKER_01: You know what's so crazy about that?
49:07
SPEAKER_01: San Francisco and that whole tech, it's all moving to like Texas, and they're slowly leaving.
49:12
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
49:12
SPEAKER_01: And California, New York, they're just tripling down on everything.
49:18
SPEAKER_01: So they have their own income tax, they have all these huge taxes across the whole state and in the city.
49:23
SPEAKER_01: And now Mom Donnie posted a video outside of like Ken Griffith's like penthouse or something, exactly.
49:30
SPEAKER_01: And going like, yeah, we're gonna confiscate and tax money from your property.
49:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and it's like they're literally already the fact he's paying property tax.
49:38
SPEAKER_00: I'm making my promise.
49:39
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, making my promise.
49:41
SPEAKER_01: Tapping the lens.
49:42
SPEAKER_04: I saw you know, I'm I one of my uh progressive relations had this um video that they posted of this really overweight broker guy, like like some guy, investment guy who made all this money in investment, saying he wants to be taxed, right?
50:01
SPEAKER_04: He wants this, and we deserve to have this happen.
50:03
SPEAKER_04: It's gonna benefit everybody.
50:05
SPEAKER_04: And he he's not leaving, he supports this a hundred percent.
50:08
SPEAKER_04: I'm like, whoa, whoa.
50:10
SPEAKER_00: Well, then you can donate to the treasury, and then you see him at night wearing the uh the little leather outfits and the woman hitting him with a whip.
50:18
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah, that's kind of it.
50:21
SPEAKER_04: It was really depressing.
50:22
SPEAKER_04: I'm like, I looked at this guy, I'm like, he was like, at first, he's like, I've made so much money, and I and I'm not benefiting anybody.
50:29
SPEAKER_04: I'm not and we need this.
50:32
SPEAKER_01: That's one thing about being a masochist.
50:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, fine, donate all of your money to the treasury.
50:37
SPEAKER_01: You can legally do that.
50:38
SPEAKER_01: They have a link on their website.
50:39
SPEAKER_04: You could donate it to that market they're making.
50:41
SPEAKER_01: Well, the guy who did uh Bruce Almighty, that director, he he made like tens of millions and like donated all his money away.
50:47
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because he's a left-wing uh he's a little hip hop.
50:51
SPEAKER_04: Guilty for everybody.
50:51
SPEAKER_04: I feel so guilty.
50:52
SPEAKER_01: But what's nasty about it is the violent element of it is he's saying to confiscate other people's property.
51:00
SPEAKER_04: Property his too, though.
51:01
SPEAKER_04: I mean and his.
51:03
SPEAKER_04: He was saying his too, that he's a part of this problem and the problem needs to be solved, and that government's gonna solve it because they've done such a great job so far.
51:10
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, like I and everybody should pay.
51:12
SPEAKER_03: I'm gonna pay.
51:13
SPEAKER_03: I haven't done anything.
51:14
SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm fat and I'm shopping, really is what it is.
51:17
SPEAKER_00: It feels good doing it after the uh 15th of this month.
51:23
SPEAKER_00: That's another thing.
51:24
SPEAKER_00: Uh and I hate to hammer on the uh MAGA Republicans right now, but uh I didn't see any uh I ended up paying more in my federal taxes, not less.
51:38
SPEAKER_00: Fellows, did you get a big don't look at me?
51:41
SPEAKER_01: No.
51:42
SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna look at you.
51:43
SPEAKER_00: I'm looking I'm looking right at you.
51:45
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I don't want to talk about that.
51:46
SPEAKER_01: You know when Trump came in in 2016 the debt was right under 20 trillion and now it's like over 40 trillion?
51:53
SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
51:53
SPEAKER_00: And and and he keeps keep coming out and saying all these tax cuts, all these tax cuts.
51:58
SPEAKER_00: I didn't see any.
51:59
SPEAKER_04: No, and in their what what on their social security thing, the money they take from you and God knows what happens, they're talking about a 25% reduction in it that's coming up, I think 2032.
52:13
SPEAKER_04: Well, my I mean this year what kind of scam are these people running?
52:16
SPEAKER_04: And I looked it up, I'm like, okay, well, if they're gonna do that, can we sue them?
52:20
SPEAKER_04: Right?
52:20
SPEAKER_04: Because they took your money and voluntarily took your money, and now they're taking it away.
52:25
SPEAKER_04: The money they took.
52:26
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and there's nothing we can do.
52:29
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's it's really nasty.
52:31
SPEAKER_01: And I will say it's kind of unraveling now, and how Tucker's been treated, and how Oh, you mean the MAGA movement?
52:40
SPEAKER_01: The whole MAGA thing's kind of spiraling along.
52:42
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I'm kind of glad in a way, those guys are at least coming out and saying, hey, we don't do we this is nonsense.
52:47
SPEAKER_04: I mean, that is nice to see, I gotta say that.
52:49
SPEAKER_01: The scariest part of this is because Trump triggers people so hard, and especially the left, when it swings back.
52:56
SPEAKER_01: I mean, we mentioned Mom Donnie and the New Jersey lady who just won and Virginia.
53:00
SPEAKER_01: Virginia's gonna be.
53:05
SPEAKER_00: The people who are the anti-Trumpers and the people who are the always Trumpers, they drive they both drive me equally nuts.
53:14
SPEAKER_00: Um, because they don't focus on actions, individual, you know, things that are going on.
53:22
SPEAKER_00: They're they're focused on personalities, and you know, uh, if Trump does this, I'm against it.
53:27
SPEAKER_00: If Trump does this, I'm for it.
53:29
SPEAKER_00: You know, it not looking at each and every action.
53:33
SPEAKER_00: There are some things that Trump does, I'm like thumbs up.
53:36
SPEAKER_00: Some stuff he does, I'm like thumbs down.
53:38
SPEAKER_00: Well, but I'm looking at each and every, you know, you're thinking logically and individualistically.
53:45
SPEAKER_04: There are groups that don't.
53:46
SPEAKER_04: They think cooperatively, they think of uh a whole whole.
53:50
SPEAKER_01: We'll talk about hunter-gatherers.
53:51
SPEAKER_01: We're tribal, and people get completely hypnotized by politics, and it turns into a tribal sport.
53:58
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
53:59
SPEAKER_01: But one thing about uh and they're easy to play.
54:03
SPEAKER_04: Both sides are easy to play.
54:05
SPEAKER_04: And we've got great propaganda now, like the best propaganda.
54:07
SPEAKER_00: And and if you point out to the people that are on those teams that, hey, I think you're being played, in my opinion, you're being played, they go ballistic.
54:17
SPEAKER_00: No, I mean, I I just I just say, hey, this is my opinion.
54:21
SPEAKER_00: Um, if somebody posts this and it's you know, not it it's involved in the personality and it's not that, I discount it.
54:28
SPEAKER_00: You wouldn't believe.
54:29
SPEAKER_00: I've I've actually got people that that respond to that.
54:32
SPEAKER_00: How dare you?
54:33
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, no, you can't do that.
54:34
SPEAKER_04: The best thing to do is go look, get your booster.
54:37
SPEAKER_04: Alabama does not exist.
54:39
SPEAKER_04: You don't know where it is on the map, you're gonna be fine in New York.
54:42
SPEAKER_01: Derek has relocation plans, so I wonder where it's on a real depressing note.
54:50
SPEAKER_02: The progressives are winning the narrative.
54:54
SPEAKER_02: You know, how can they not be winning the narrative?
54:56
SPEAKER_02: The Democrat Party saying, we're gonna give you everything you want, and the Republican Party saying, Well, yeah, we're gonna help you, we're gonna develop this program or that program, or we're gonna increase your taxes.
55:05
SPEAKER_02: They're both saying the same thing.
55:08
SPEAKER_02: Nobody's talking about what are the benefits of individual and economic freedom.
55:12
SPEAKER_02: You're not hearing that at today.
55:14
SPEAKER_02: You're hearing the the progressive narrative.
55:17
SPEAKER_02: They're winning.
55:18
SPEAKER_01: Well, and that's that's what's scary about the so Scott Adams was huge on Trump, and Trump bluffs and he has a certain style of communication, and people can get like if you magnify every word he says, Andy Kauchrix.
55:34
SPEAKER_01: He's doing it, he's playing a different game.
55:36
SPEAKER_01: That they're reading it one way, it's Yanni Laurel type thing, and he's doing a persuasion game.
55:44
SPEAKER_01: But one thing about like this whole Iran thing and him fracturing MAGA, yeah, is this Virginia phenomenon, this New Jersey phenomenon, it the the yeah, New York of Mam Dani, the pendulum's starting to come.
55:59
SPEAKER_04: Oh, it's and because they have such an emotional hatred of Trump, it went so far emotionally, one way, that you might end up with like uh well, throw in, throw in the whole fear and from from the robots and AI, yeah, and then the goal of UBI and what was uh what was Musk saying, HBI now?
56:22
SPEAKER_04: The yeah, yeah.
56:24
SPEAKER_04: So it's a perfect storm for new age communism.
56:28
SPEAKER_02: We're all gonna lose our jobs.
56:30
SPEAKER_02: We need universal basic income.
56:32
SPEAKER_02: How am I gonna support myself and my family 10 years from now or two years from now?
56:36
SPEAKER_02: What are you, a forwardist?
56:38
SPEAKER_02: Oh, there you go.
56:40
SPEAKER_02: Time to join the forward party.
56:42
SPEAKER_04: Well, and that's something about Yeah, exactly.
56:44
SPEAKER_01: And well, that's what's well and AI hasn't happened as fast as people eating.
56:48
SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah, tell that to the 8,000 people that are losing their job over there at Microsoft.
56:52
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's the beginning.
56:53
SPEAKER_01: So you jacked up.
56:54
SPEAKER_01: You mean at microphone?
56:57
SPEAKER_01: Microphone.
56:58
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you tell that.
56:58
SPEAKER_04: I mean, no, seriously, I think there's like 16,000 people between them and Facebook that are all gonna be losing their jobs, and those are just the numbers we're hearing.
57:06
SPEAKER_04: Well, and here's the thing is I mean, and those people are already left at those two corporations on the left side of the of the country.
57:13
SPEAKER_04: Well, and it's a you're gonna go even further, and they want to punish you for these actions that have happened.
57:18
SPEAKER_01: Well, and w what everyone predicted at the beginning was the opposite, all the low-income jobs ago.
57:23
SPEAKER_01: No, all the high-income jobs say, and it's been the opposite, it's been the opposite, but it's about the speed of it.
57:28
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
57:28
SPEAKER_01: Because uh the Foundation for Economic Freedom, they had a uh video come out about basically a lot of these jobs, it's basically humans are doing robot jobs, it's not a problem slowly over time.
57:42
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, when you get it too fast, the the ape brain kicks in and you end up with like UBI.
57:47
SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
57:49
SPEAKER_01: But it's we the market is an adaptive uh ecology.
57:55
SPEAKER_02: Uh-huh.
57:56
SPEAKER_01: So when they talk about the calculation issue, like Hayek and everything, or spontaneous order, it's a uh they just had a video on the Mises Institute about how AI can't solve the socialist calculation problem.
58:07
SPEAKER_01: Because you're dealing with quadrillions of decisions and it's an adaptive, it's like a flock of birds.
58:13
SPEAKER_00: Well, I will predict one thing.
58:16
SPEAKER_00: We, you know, we we see it here on the technology side with AI, but when it's really gonna when the shit's really gonna hit the fan, is when the legal uh profession is really smacked.
58:29
SPEAKER_00: They're gonna sit there and try to scramble by doing what are they gonna put in place?
58:33
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you're right.
58:34
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they're gonna try to scramble to start putting in um flaws and everything else.
58:39
SPEAKER_00: And the problem is that AI is gonna be able to outmaneuver them.
58:44
SPEAKER_04: I use it in course on the butt going back to what you were just saying, is like I it had me thinking is like, would my job that I had before exist?
58:56
SPEAKER_04: And I think the only reason why it's existing now is just out of habit.
59:00
SPEAKER_04: Like most of what I did on project management and production could be done by a team lead using AI.
59:07
SPEAKER_04: They don't even need the producer project manager anymore, other than the human element of rallying people to get stuff done.
59:14
SPEAKER_04: Well, look at the It's like it's gone.
59:16
SPEAKER_01: The piston engine, the internet, the internet and like Amazon destroyed a bunch of retail stores.
59:24
SPEAKER_01: Oh, the retail stores.
59:25
SPEAKER_01: It just at this it has to happen at a certain speed.
59:28
SPEAKER_01: Not that it has to be controlled forced the top down, but if it happens too fast, uh that's when people champ out one last story because I never run the last minute.
59:40
SPEAKER_01: I just thought this was uh hilarious.
59:44
SPEAKER_01: Pete Heggseth comes out, and this isn't even political, this is just hilarious.
59:50
SPEAKER_01: Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense, he uh went to the Pentagon worship service and he uh told them to please pray with me.
1:00:02
SPEAKER_01: And he read not Ezekiel 2517, which is a one-sentence passage from Ezekiel, he went into a paragraph-long monologue with wording such as the path of the righteous man and uh my brother's keeper, and basically the whole first three sentences are from Pulp Fiction.
1:00:28
SPEAKER_04: That's great.
1:00:29
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:00:29
SPEAKER_01: He quoted Samuel L.
1:00:31
SPEAKER_01: Jackson, which Quentin Tarantino took from a Japanese like martial arts confirm movie from the 70s.
1:00:37
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, uh, from um uh Yuan, yeah.
1:00:41
SPEAKER_01: Bodyguard Kiba from 1973, Japanese martial arts movie, substituting the Lord with Chiba, the bodyguard.
1:00:50
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but he he read this pray with me, please.
1:00:53
SPEAKER_01: The path of the downed aviator is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
1:01:00
SPEAKER_01: Again, none of that's in Ezekiel.
1:01:02
SPEAKER_01: It sounds like blessed is he who in the name New Testament.
1:01:08
SPEAKER_01: He went on a whole speech, and he's known for kind of, we were just talking about alcohol.
1:01:13
SPEAKER_01: He's known for maybe being a little bit of a closet drinker.
1:01:16
SPEAKER_01: I don't have a alcohol issues.
1:01:18
SPEAKER_00: I don't think this was alcohol-induced.
1:01:20
SPEAKER_00: It may have been more AI-induced, but um but yeah, don't look up Ezekiel on ChatGPT.
1:01:26
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they might uh uh give you a drifted version of it.
1:01:31
SPEAKER_01: But uh I I just thought we we'd end instead of on the AI uh economic apocalypse, I thought we'd end on more of a theological note.
1:01:40
SPEAKER_00: And folks, just don't worry about any of the things that we talk about or any of the topics getting you down because quite frankly, we all live in a virtual reality.
1:01:50
SPEAKER_00: All simulation.
1:01:52
SPEAKER_00: It's all simulation.
1:01:54
SPEAKER_00: It's a hologram, we're just a one-hologe.
1:01:57
SPEAKER_00: That's right.
1:01:58
SPEAKER_00: And with that, this has been another interesting, hilarious, and weird uh edition of Microphone Monkeys.
1:02:08
SPEAKER_00: Take a night.
