- 0:15Speaker 2: Seeing you you're a man of many talents. My friend
- 0:25Speaker 2: tell me about.
- 0:25Speaker 4: This book Poems and Prayers. Yeah, so I've been kind
- 0:32Speaker 4: of writing.
- 0:33Speaker 2: Try to keep this like these are a little bit directions.
- 0:37Speaker 4: I've been kind of I've been writing poems and prayers
- 0:38Speaker 4: down for since I was like eighteen, and then this
- 0:44Speaker 4: last I don't know a couple of years. I started
- 0:49Speaker 4: looking around at life and the facts and evidence in people,
- 0:54Speaker 4: and I was like, not finding the amount of things
- 0:58Speaker 4: are people to believe in that I was wanting to.
- 1:00Speaker 4: And I was starting to have doubts to myself as well,
- 1:03Speaker 4: and I started to see myself slippingt a little bit
- 1:05Speaker 4: of cynicism, which I promised myself that's no, that's a
- 1:11Speaker 4: that's a living man's disease. Don't go there. You go
- 1:14Speaker 4: from innocence to naivete to skepticism. But let's stop there
- 1:18Speaker 4: at skepticism. Yeah, And I kind of got scared and
- 1:23Speaker 4: a little piste off at myself, and I was like,
- 1:25Speaker 4: wait a minute, I'm not ready to give up. I'm
- 1:27Speaker 4: not ready to wave the wave the white flag and
- 1:30Speaker 4: let myself off for certain things. I was starting to
- 1:32Speaker 4: even want to let myself off on you know, or
- 1:34Speaker 4: other people. And I said, all right, poems and prayers,
- 1:39Speaker 4: those are ideals, those are pursuits.
- 1:42Speaker 2: You know.
- 1:43Speaker 4: That's going to the dream and saying let's go to
- 1:45Speaker 4: let's let's let's look at the dream and see if
- 1:47Speaker 4: we can still believe in making that a reality. Instead
- 1:50Speaker 4: of looking at reality and saying, how do you turn
- 1:52Speaker 4: that into dream? Which is what I usually do. I'm like,
- 1:54Speaker 4: art emulates life, man, not the other way around. But
- 1:57Speaker 4: I flipped the script a little bit here and said, no, no,
- 1:59Speaker 4: let's let's dive into the dreams and belief. Man said,
- 2:03Speaker 4: I think it's in short supply, it was giddy. It
- 2:04Speaker 4: was my tank was getting low on belief, not.
- 2:08Speaker 2: Just what was bothering you so much?
- 2:10Speaker 4: Well specifically, maybe it's man, Maybe it's turning fifty something
- 2:15Speaker 4: like that. Maybe it's that where I start to project,
- 2:17Speaker 4: you know what am I what's the next half?
- 2:20Speaker 2: Right?
- 2:21Speaker 4: I don't know. Maybe subconsciously it was I think, uh,
- 2:25Speaker 4: I look around and there's a lot fewer leaders that
- 2:30Speaker 4: I'm like, hey, son, I want to grow up like that, right?
- 2:34Speaker 4: I look around I see people not trusting I see people,
- 2:39Speaker 4: I see people that aren't embarrassed for doing something shitty, right,
- 2:46Speaker 4: I see people that sleep just fine. I don't. I
- 2:49Speaker 4: found myself starting to go, oh, I can sleep fine too.
- 2:52Speaker 4: That's that part where I was like, huh uh, you
- 2:54Speaker 4: can't don't you don't don't sleep fine if you half
- 2:57Speaker 4: ass that situation or if you did that person wrong
- 3:00Speaker 4: and can get away with it, right, and so so
- 3:05Speaker 4: trust what where do we look to for belief?
- 3:10Speaker 2: Me?
- 3:10Speaker 4: I believe in God, but it doesn't have to be that.
- 3:13Speaker 4: What's your your better self, you're trance in itself, your kids,
- 3:16Speaker 4: their future.
- 3:18Speaker 2: There's all kind of humanity itself.
- 3:20Speaker 4: Yeah, believing in it our potential.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Which we understand that humans can be so amazing at times.
- 3:27Speaker 2: And all my favorite people are humans, like all the
- 3:32Speaker 2: I love people, I love being around them. But yet
- 3:35Speaker 2: simultaneously people can be fucking horrific. They're terrible at the
- 3:41Speaker 2: same time. Like the problem today is that you're inundated
- 3:46Speaker 2: by these people that are terrible, your your your phone
- 3:50Speaker 2: is filled with these news feeds of people doing terrible things.
- 3:54Speaker 2: And I don't think we're supposed to have access to
- 3:58Speaker 2: eight billion people's bad stories. I don't think that's normal,
- 4:01Speaker 2: and I think that also changes your own perception of
- 4:06Speaker 2: the world and invites cynicism and advice, like, like, what
- 4:11Speaker 2: is the point of being a good person? Was the
- 4:13Speaker 2: point of being friendly and nice when the world's.
- 4:15Speaker 4: Going as consequences? Man? Yeah, none of it. I can
- 4:17Speaker 4: shortcut it and right light heat and steel to get
- 4:20Speaker 4: the same thing. And I'm in a world that rewards
- 4:23Speaker 4: at especially CEOs.
- 4:25Speaker 2: I mean, if you're working for some giant corporation, if
- 4:28Speaker 2: you're trying to make your shareholders billions of dollars, like, yeah,
- 4:33Speaker 2: you kind of have to be a psycho. And those
- 4:35Speaker 2: are the people that a lot of people look up to. Yeah,
- 4:37Speaker 2: it's real. It's the way we're structured in this world
- 4:41Speaker 2: with that inundation of information, most of it bad, with
- 4:44Speaker 2: people being rewarded for being shitty people with like it's hard.
- 4:49Speaker 2: It's hard to still be positive and be happy.
- 4:52Speaker 4: I'm not ready to give up on believing that both
- 4:56Speaker 4: can be true. Yeah that hey, man, hardcore capitalists go
- 5:00Speaker 4: for it more and more and more success get it.
- 5:02Speaker 4: But you can also how do you have profit with
- 5:05Speaker 4: your success? I see a lot of people that are successful. Yeah,
- 5:08Speaker 4: lack profit meaning value of their success, right, nappy billionaires.
- 5:14Speaker 2: I know them, right, I know them too. That's a
- 5:16Speaker 2: bad thing, right, Like, that's the thing that you think, Oh,
- 5:18Speaker 2: if you you hit that stage of the game, there's
- 5:20Speaker 2: no way you can be unhappy.
- 5:22Speaker 4: You know.
- 5:22Speaker 2: There's some of the most unhappy people.
- 5:24Speaker 4: Yeah, and that math, that math is inverted. Shouldn't be
- 5:28Speaker 4: that way. If that's what we're pursuing. And I got
- 5:30Speaker 4: nothing against it, I'm actually for it.
- 5:32Speaker 2: But yeah, if that's what we're pursuing, that that's not
- 5:36Speaker 2: how it's supposed to end. It's supposed to that's the
- 5:38Speaker 2: happiest guy alive, you know. Yeah, it's not real, you know.
- 5:44Speaker 2: And you don't notice it. It's just numbers, you know.
- 5:46Speaker 2: You notice it by how big your house is. Great,
- 5:48Speaker 2: still just your house.
- 5:50Speaker 4: You notice it, but you're getting lost in that semi
- 5:52Speaker 4: bitch and you wish the ceilings were a little bit
- 5:54Speaker 4: lower because it's it's all two damn big.
- 5:56Speaker 2: And it's not cozy at all. Like those ain't cozy.
- 5:59Speaker 2: This weird fucking castle.
- 6:01Speaker 4: I've done it.
- 6:02Speaker 2: I've done it.
- 6:04Speaker 4: That picture ship, that's the first time I've noticed that
- 6:07Speaker 4: painting in two years. Yeah, either I don't like it
- 6:10Speaker 4: or I got it in the wrong place. Yeah, it's
- 6:11Speaker 4: in the fourth bedroom, down the second hallway and I'm
- 6:14Speaker 4: never down here. Or that chair that used to be
- 6:16Speaker 4: my favorite chair, I hadn't sat in it, yeah in
- 6:18Speaker 4: two years. Yeah, because you got it off down in
- 6:20Speaker 4: the fifth bedroom. Yeah, or no, you never go.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Well, I see like movies where dude's living in a
- 6:27Speaker 2: log cabin.
- 6:28Speaker 4: I'm like, I only do that, right, the lack of options. Yeah,
- 6:33Speaker 4: the lack of options is relaxing.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Well, there's something to that, like a frying pan grilled dude.
- 6:39Speaker 4: That's what I love about living in the airstream for
- 6:41Speaker 4: four years. Right, you only have room for one of everything,
- 6:45Speaker 4: so I would get my best, the best pan, the best,
- 6:48Speaker 4: the best, the best parish was the best sheets, and
- 6:52Speaker 4: you can only have one of each because you get two,
- 6:53Speaker 4: it's cluttered. They weren't options.
- 6:56Speaker 2: I forgot you did that. You did that for four years.
- 6:58Speaker 2: That's crazy. That's so smart though, it's such a good
- 7:02Speaker 2: I watched these videos on people that live in like
- 7:04Speaker 2: uh trailers, like like a truck, you know, like a
- 7:08Speaker 2: camper they convert to living in and they travel around
- 7:11Speaker 2: the country I'm obsessed with these videos. I watch these
- 7:14Speaker 2: guys go to like these horrendous places. This got One
- 7:17Speaker 2: guy's a truck camper and he goes up into like
- 7:21Speaker 2: way into Alaska, like way way way above the Arctic Circle,
- 7:26Speaker 2: like way up there in this fucking truck with a
- 7:28Speaker 2: house on the back of it. He's in Canada and
- 7:31Speaker 2: like deep into Alberta. It's snowstorms and it's there's something
- 7:36Speaker 2: oddly comforting about watching a man cook in this tiny
- 7:41Speaker 2: little space that he has. It's essentially attached to the
- 7:44Speaker 2: back of a big diesel pickup truck. Yeah, and he
- 7:47Speaker 2: lives in it.
- 7:47Speaker 4: Yeah, Well he's got decreased amount of options. Yeah, she's like.
- 7:52Speaker 2: Those shelves, this is where I keep my silverware, and
- 7:55Speaker 2: this is why. Here's my frying face. He got one frying.
- 7:58Speaker 4: Pan, take care of thee Yeah.
- 8:01Speaker 2: I'm watching this guy cook his supper and I'm like
- 8:03Speaker 2: this is appealing to me for some reason, Like why
- 8:06Speaker 2: is it so appealing? Because his world is all contained
- 8:09Speaker 2: that look, and the whole world outside is frozen wasteland
- 8:12Speaker 2: and fucking stow coming sideways and this dude's just chilling
- 8:15Speaker 2: making eggs, and.
- 8:17Speaker 4: There's something in honey.
- 8:19Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, something cool about watching someone achieve like a
- 8:23Speaker 2: like a den in the back of a truck and
- 8:26Speaker 2: it's in the middle of the winter and he's comfortable,
- 8:28Speaker 2: he's watching movies on his iPad.
- 8:31Speaker 4: Is greatn the times I've gone off on my own,
- 8:37Speaker 4: I've always tripped my my goals or even okay, stay
- 8:40Speaker 4: here until you fee whether it's Molly or Peru, or
- 8:44Speaker 4: even in the airstream those times, or going out to
- 8:46Speaker 4: Marfort to go right on my own all stay here
- 8:50Speaker 4: long enough to believe this could be your existence in Kunda.
- 8:53Speaker 4: You could live here forever. Then it's okay to come
- 8:55Speaker 4: back home. If I get to that point, I'm going
- 8:58Speaker 4: I could do this to be me, then I've given
- 9:01Speaker 4: it the justice right to then go come home, because
- 9:04Speaker 4: I sure do silk sheets. I'm a bed at home.
- 9:07Speaker 4: Sure do feel silkier after those times in that log cabin. Yeah,
- 9:13Speaker 4: you know, I like coming back and re engaging. Yeah,
- 9:16Speaker 4: you know, spending time over in Hawaii, coming back over
- 9:20Speaker 4: to the mainland. It was great to get the stimulus again.
- 9:23Speaker 4: Ah in the game, you feel teeth. I wanted that,
- 9:26Speaker 4: you know.
- 9:28Speaker 2: Yeah, if resats are real, they're important. You can get
- 9:31Speaker 2: trapped in momentum. You know, you could really get trapped
- 9:35Speaker 2: in the momentum of whatever you're doing in your life
- 9:38Speaker 2: to the point where you lose yourself in just the
- 9:41Speaker 2: sheer gravity of everything that you're doing, and you forget
- 9:45Speaker 2: how to like just yeah, be just a person.
- 9:48Speaker 4: And what happens when you're doing it well but you
- 9:51Speaker 4: don't feel it right and you're on autopilot and you're
- 9:53Speaker 4: not gonna everyone's telling you're not gonna out of the park,
- 9:56Speaker 4: but you're going the good because I didn't I didn't
- 9:58Speaker 4: feel it. I'm not having any really experience here. Man,
- 10:02Speaker 4: don't change a thing, you know what I mean.
- 10:04Speaker 2: You know, that's a real problem with stand up comedy.
- 10:07Speaker 2: When you do it right, you're like a passenger, Like
- 10:11Speaker 2: it takes forever to put together an act, but when
- 10:14Speaker 2: when it comes together, when you're really like locked in,
- 10:17Speaker 2: when you're really on it, it's like you're like a passenger.
- 10:21Speaker 2: You're watching it happen, and you're.
- 10:23Speaker 4: You're objectly while you're it's like.
- 10:26Speaker 2: You know how to do it, so you know what
- 10:28Speaker 2: to do, and you're locked into the material, so you're
- 10:31Speaker 2: like a part of the material, but you're not there anymore.
- 10:34Speaker 2: You're like a passenger. You're not saying now I'm gonna
- 10:37Speaker 2: pick this up, and now I'm gonna give them a
- 10:39Speaker 2: pause and now Nope, you're not there.
- 10:42Speaker 4: When joy watching yourself.
- 10:44Speaker 2: No, you don't enjoy it. I mean it's fun, don't
- 10:47Speaker 2: get me wrong, but you're not thinking about the fact
- 10:50Speaker 2: that you're enjoying it at all. You're just locked in.
- 10:53Speaker 2: All you're doing is just doing it. But it's weird.
- 10:55Speaker 2: You're like a passenger, and I think there's something and
- 11:01Speaker 2: there's something about that where we get trapped by not
- 11:05Speaker 2: being a passenger. You get trapped by wanting to like
- 11:09Speaker 2: think of yourself all the time and like things that
- 11:13Speaker 2: you can do that take you out of that, things
- 11:16Speaker 2: that you can do that why you just locked into
- 11:18Speaker 2: this thing? There are little like many vacations for whatever
- 11:24Speaker 2: pattern you're stuck in.
- 11:26Speaker 4: Many vacations.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Yeah, like anything.
- 11:31Speaker 4: I didn't act in front of the camera for a
- 11:34Speaker 4: few years and I went back and did a couple
- 11:36Speaker 4: of films last year. Vacation.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Yeah, you were telling me that focus to go.
- 11:43Speaker 4: I revered this enough to just do this, And if
- 11:46Speaker 4: I'm complacent, that means I'm being lazy. I can just
- 11:48Speaker 4: go back to working on my character, look at it
- 11:51Speaker 4: from every angle, and that is an absolute vacation.
- 11:55Speaker 2: You sent me a text about that. It made me smile,
- 11:57Speaker 2: because I'd love when someone loves something. I love that.
- 12:01Speaker 2: I love when people are just like, what you do
- 12:05Speaker 2: is what you're supposed to be doing, and you know
- 12:08Speaker 2: you're not conflicted at all, Like fuck.
- 12:10Speaker 4: It, yeah, let's go.
- 12:14Speaker 2: I love that, and I wish more people could find
- 12:17Speaker 2: that in life in some form, whether it's painting or
- 12:22Speaker 2: making pottery or whatever the fuck it is. Man, find
- 12:26Speaker 2: that thing where you're like, God, I can't wait to
- 12:28Speaker 2: get back to whatever it is making cars, I can't
- 12:31Speaker 2: wait to get back to, you know, whatever the fuck
- 12:33Speaker 2: it is I enjoy.
- 12:34Speaker 4: Or maybe even get to the place going. I can't
- 12:38Speaker 4: not not do it right, you know. Yeah, I can't
- 12:42Speaker 4: help myself. It's more than my fault. I made to be.
- 12:46Speaker 4: That's and that doesn't always happen, even I know for
- 12:49Speaker 4: me when I'm when I'm feeling like I'm actually in
- 12:52Speaker 4: the zone, I still sometimes have to make a choice
- 12:54Speaker 4: and go, wait, no, you're good at this. It feels
- 12:57Speaker 4: pretty good. But what I really they have to get
- 13:00Speaker 4: to if i'm doing something, I'm like, no, I can't
- 13:03Speaker 4: not right, you can't not do this right now?
- 13:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to.
- 13:08Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm in it. I'm the subject of it,
- 13:11Speaker 4: locked up all my passenger thing though, are you the subject?
- 13:15Speaker 4: Meaning if I'm giving a performance, I'm not. There's nothing.
- 13:19Speaker 4: It's not an objective experience at all. I'm not even
- 13:23Speaker 4: hopping out to look at myself from a third eye.
- 13:25Speaker 4: I'm not even supposing or anticipating, Oh, how will this go?
- 13:29Speaker 4: Or oh this is that punchline or ooh this is
- 13:31Speaker 4: a great beat to hit. I'm just in it and
- 13:34Speaker 4: then I can feel it though now we go oh
- 13:36Speaker 4: right afterwards, I can look at you and go, that
- 13:38Speaker 4: was it? You go that was it? Or I can
- 13:40Speaker 4: go yeah and I bullshit it right there in the middle.
- 13:42Speaker 4: Blah blah blah. I can feel it when it's happening,
- 13:45Speaker 4: but I'm not. There's nothing objective about the experience right
- 13:48Speaker 4: at all.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that's exactly kind of what I'm saying. It's
- 13:51Speaker 2: like you're a passenger, Like you can feel it when
- 13:55Speaker 2: it's happening, you're managing it. When I get it really
- 13:58Speaker 2: locked in, then I'm just a passenger.
- 14:04Speaker 4: Is it coming through. Are you you're not even coming
- 14:06Speaker 4: up with it's coming.
- 14:07Speaker 2: No, It's all stuff that I've already thought of, right,
- 14:10Speaker 2: most of it, except for some stuff that happens on
- 14:12Speaker 2: the spot, which you got to allow room for because
- 14:15Speaker 2: occasionally you just have the best line ever that just
- 14:17Speaker 2: comes out of nowhere and you just got to be
- 14:19Speaker 2: able to let it happen. That's what club work is for.
- 14:22Speaker 2: But it's you're you're really just the ideas. Like whatever
- 14:27Speaker 2: it is you're talking about, whatever it is you're upset about,
- 14:29Speaker 2: whatever it is you're making fun of, You're you have
- 14:32Speaker 2: to be like in that idea and you don't exist anymore. Yeah,
- 14:36Speaker 2: it's weird. It's weird, But like what you're saying about,
- 14:40Speaker 2: I can't not do this, you know. That's if you
- 14:45Speaker 2: can find a thing in your life where you're like,
- 14:47Speaker 2: I cannot imagine a time where I can't do this, right,
- 14:50Speaker 2: this would fucking suck if I could not do this.
- 14:54Speaker 2: H That's that's that's the aspiration for people to have
- 14:59Speaker 2: a joyful existence.
- 15:00Speaker 4: You think, that's where I got a hunch that in
- 15:03Speaker 4: there is where you where we find belief, Like starting
- 15:07Speaker 4: with that quession who who or what would you die for?
- 15:10Speaker 4: Good place to start?
- 15:11Speaker 2: Right?
- 15:11Speaker 4: For going? What do I believe in? What doll I
- 15:13Speaker 4: have faith in?
- 15:14Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 15:16Speaker 4: Do you think that that extends out to a vocation
- 15:21Speaker 4: a career?
- 15:22Speaker 5: Uh?
- 15:23Speaker 4: Some work we do. I've seen that. I'd die for
- 15:28Speaker 4: the experience to perform.
- 15:29Speaker 2: But that's the ultimate sacrifice. That's the ultimate expression of
- 15:34Speaker 2: how much you love something you die for it or
- 15:36Speaker 2: die for them. Yeah, so much.
- 15:39Speaker 4: And if you figure out what you're going to do,
- 15:40Speaker 4: what you'll die for, that's what you'll live for that
- 15:42Speaker 4: much more, right while you're alive, while you're here, Well, that.
- 15:46Speaker 2: Was all the spartans that sucks with each other so
- 15:49Speaker 2: that they would love each other, and so you would
- 15:51Speaker 2: be fighting not just for you, you'd be fighting for
- 15:54Speaker 2: your lover. Okay, is crazy strategy? Yeah, you talk a
- 15:58Speaker 2: bunch of guys that are banging each other.
- 16:01Speaker 4: Go whatever, raise your skirt, man, just get let's get
- 16:04Speaker 4: some spirit here.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you remember this kind of a crazy but
- 16:09Speaker 2: true story a few years ago? God, I want to.
- 16:12Speaker 2: I don't know what administration was. It might have been
- 16:15Speaker 2: the Bush administration, might have been Obama. They try to
- 16:19Speaker 2: develop a gay bomb, like they spent millions of dollars
- 16:23Speaker 2: developing a bomb. And the concept behind this bomb was
- 16:26Speaker 2: you would detonated over a city and it would be
- 16:29Speaker 2: like a bunch of probably pheromones and hormones and some
- 16:33Speaker 2: kind of drug, and it would make people so horny
- 16:37Speaker 2: that they would just have to have sex with whoever
- 16:39Speaker 2: is near them. And then the idea was they would
- 16:43Speaker 2: be humiliated by this, and then we would just come
- 16:46Speaker 2: in and just fuck up all these.
- 16:48Speaker 4: Gay morale all of a sudden.
- 16:50Speaker 2: If a man becomes gay, now he's no longer like
- 16:53Speaker 2: a highly trained military like soldier in another land. Now
- 16:58Speaker 2: he's just a fruitcake, just some guys watching musicals.
- 17:02Speaker 4: No, it's it's the dumb one so much.
- 17:07Speaker 2: Some of the exactly some of the greatest warriors of
- 17:10Speaker 2: all time and recorded history were gay, including pirates. Pirates
- 17:15Speaker 2: were gay. You're stuck at sea for five months and
- 17:17Speaker 2: a bunch of dudes, you make choices, right, Samurai did
- 17:21Speaker 2: a lot of gay stuff. Spartans, the greatest warriors of
- 17:24Speaker 2: all time all gay. Like, what a terrible idea to
- 17:27Speaker 2: spend money on. You could make me a more lethal army.
- 17:31Speaker 2: Imagine if they dropped that gay bomb and then the
- 17:33Speaker 2: gays just kicked our asses. They just had so much
- 17:36Speaker 2: more to fight for. They loved each other. And this
- 17:40Speaker 2: is how dumb like the people that were spending your
- 17:43Speaker 2: tax dollars are, how far they get seven million dollars?
- 17:48Speaker 2: See if you can pull that up, Jamie. When when
- 17:50Speaker 2: the gay bomb was.
- 17:52Speaker 5: In the nineties, Pentagon didn't deny the proposal.
- 17:58Speaker 2: The Pentagon didn't if you just make this, am I
- 18:04Speaker 2: guarantee you fucking deny it. I guarantee you'd be like no, no, no. Well, meanwhile, like,
- 18:11Speaker 2: who's to say that shit even stays local? What if
- 18:13Speaker 2: it catches a good breeze and blows across the ocean
- 18:16Speaker 2: and you know, come on, turns off of Portland. Kay,
- 18:23Speaker 2: they become the new Viking Army.
- 18:27Speaker 4: Look out Greenland.
- 18:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's just it's so hilarious that someone
- 18:35Speaker 2: had that idea. But that's what happens when people just
- 18:37Speaker 2: have free access without any sort of oversight to your
- 18:42Speaker 2: tax dollars. Like, it's such a ridiculous idea.
- 18:45Speaker 4: I got one for you. Yeah, the gay bomb? What
- 18:51Speaker 4: the gay bomb? Yeah, there's a few people.
- 18:54Speaker 2: In that room. What they're going like the Pentagon? You know, Yeah,
- 19:00Speaker 2: I got an idea let's try it.
- 19:02Speaker 4: On us right here in this.
- 19:05Speaker 6: Room, just to just to show you the effectiveness of
- 19:09Speaker 6: this type of strategy. Yeah, so what what was it
- 19:15Speaker 6: and what was in it? I think it was just
- 19:17Speaker 6: a proposal for I isn't there a Wikipedia page on.
- 19:21Speaker 5: That's what I was looking at. It didn't have anything
- 19:23Speaker 5: other than it was just the discussion of what.
- 19:28Speaker 4: Was going to make everyone so horny that they had
- 19:31Speaker 4: to attack and crazy the nearest human or animal or whatever.
- 19:36Speaker 2: Also, why is there only guys around you? Like? Is
- 19:40Speaker 2: that is it because they're the soldiers are dropping on
- 19:42Speaker 2: the soldiers. Yeah, the demographic, but I think the idea
- 19:46Speaker 2: was dropping it on a whole city. Turn the whole city.
- 19:51Speaker 5: Found they were doing like a foyery quest. They found
- 19:53Speaker 5: it was on a CD ROM that they found in
- 19:55Speaker 5: two thousand and Yeah, the documents, so they spent seven
- 19:58Speaker 5: point five million dollar was requested to develop the weapon.
- 20:01Speaker 5: Doesn't say that they spent it denied proposals made, that's
- 20:08Speaker 5: all got That's hilarious.

- 20:57Speaker 2: don't know how we got into that after God, but it's.
- 21:00Speaker 4: Just like we were talking about TeamWorks.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Whatever those people are doing, they're not in the group.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Like if you're sitting around and this is your life's
- 21:08Speaker 2: work and you're thinking, you know what the next step is?
- 21:11Speaker 2: Gay bomb?
- 21:11Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, yeah, you're they're still looking, you know, they
- 21:15Speaker 4: definitely are not that. I can't not do it stage there,
- 21:17Speaker 4: They're going, what about this? I'm bored. I've got more
- 21:20Speaker 4: than a campfire to make to on this one, frying pandonight.
- 21:24Speaker 4: I got a lot of options out there and a
- 21:25Speaker 4: lot of money, and I can make an argument for this.
- 21:28Speaker 2: Yeah, gay bomb, Well, probably better than a real bomb.
- 21:35Speaker 2: I mean, anything we can do to stop dropping real bombs,
- 21:38Speaker 2: that would be great.
- 21:39Speaker 4: It would be nice, wouldn't Yeah, yeah, that would be.
- 21:48Speaker 2: It'd be nice. With our lifetime. That's one of the
- 21:52Speaker 2: most depressing things. That's like you you ask people, do
- 21:54Speaker 2: you think ever in your lifetime to be a time
- 21:56Speaker 2: where there's no war? Nobody says yes. So how do
- 21:59Speaker 2: we do that?
- 21:59Speaker 4: Though? I mean how to? I mean, I hear you, man,
- 22:04Speaker 4: but how are we giving ourselves too much credit?
- 22:08Speaker 2: Congratulations? You're the first guy to put bare feet on
- 22:10Speaker 2: this desk?
- 22:11Speaker 4: Oh yeah, congrat Yeah?
- 22:15Speaker 2: Out? How do we do it?
- 22:16Speaker 4: I mean, how do do? What I'm saying is I
- 22:19Speaker 4: love the prospect and the idea, But I also think
- 22:23Speaker 4: that we're guilty of thinking we're more more involved species
- 22:27Speaker 4: than we are.
- 22:28Speaker 2: Sure, especially by our actions, if you just judge us
- 22:31Speaker 2: by our actions. So it's the only way you could
- 22:33Speaker 2: really judge our mental evolution. You know, who knows what
- 22:37Speaker 2: the wiring is under the board that makes us behave
- 22:39Speaker 2: the way we behave, But pretty uniformly, you know, across
- 22:43Speaker 2: the world, pretty murderous, you know.
- 22:46Speaker 4: And now and always have been, always have been. Keep
- 22:49Speaker 4: trying to talk like we were more well, we aspire,
- 22:52Speaker 4: we're involved and intellectually, I think it's the same.
- 22:56Speaker 2: Ship that takes a long time to turn around. I
- 22:59Speaker 2: think we're way more evolved culturally than any culture throughout history,
- 23:04Speaker 2: any civilization throughout history. Like if you look at the rape, murder, thievery,
- 23:10Speaker 2: like you look at like violent, terrifying crimes, over time,
- 23:14Speaker 2: they're all going way down. It's not if you're in Baltimore,
- 23:18Speaker 2: doesn't seem like it. If you're in a place it's
- 23:20Speaker 2: like crime ridden, it doesn't seem like it. But the
- 23:22Speaker 2: overall of the world has dropped and continues to drop.
- 23:26Speaker 2: It's just a constant battle.
- 23:28Speaker 4: So the battles the warfare is different though now, like
- 23:31Speaker 4: you're talking about from gay bombs, it's to chemical warfare,
- 23:34Speaker 4: to informational warfare to data warfare.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Is that where the wars are being fought now and
- 23:40Speaker 4: it's not hand to hand.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Well maybe that'll ultimately be where it leads to. But
- 23:45Speaker 2: I think all that stuff has related because all of
- 23:48Speaker 2: it is about technology, you know, And that's the difference
- 23:51Speaker 2: in the world of warfare today. It's it's just it's
- 23:55Speaker 2: really just about controlling people and you could kind of
- 23:58Speaker 2: control people with technology, especially the more you get them
- 24:01Speaker 2: to adapt things, the more you get people to sign
- 24:04Speaker 2: up for like social credit scores. A lot of countries
- 24:07Speaker 2: like to do that. And then we got AI on
- 24:09Speaker 2: the way. And when real AI hits, it'll probably be
- 24:13Speaker 2: our governor, it'll be our president. It will decide that
- 24:18Speaker 2: human beings are too dangerous and volatile and emotional. And
- 24:23Speaker 2: you know, they use Trump's tweets as an example, and
- 24:26Speaker 2: you know they'll they'll decide that, you know, the Biden
- 24:29Speaker 2: family corruption or whatever scandal any other president was involved in.
- 24:34Speaker 2: All this could be avoided if we just have AI
- 24:35Speaker 2: run everything right, And what's sharing out?
- 24:38Speaker 4: What do you do you think there's a way that
- 24:40Speaker 4: we can keep evolving AI where we as humans do
- 24:44Speaker 4: work with AI. The AI improves the human existence.
- 24:48Speaker 2: That would be the ultimate benefit.
- 24:50Speaker 4: Yeah, what about what about the what about the camp
- 24:53Speaker 4: that is no, forget humanity? This is the next step
- 24:57Speaker 4: in evolution. Yeah, we're creating this to be become the
- 25:00Speaker 4: superior existent species and we will be obsolete and that's
- 25:05Speaker 4: the order of things to come.
- 25:06Speaker 2: He ever sees that interview where Peter Thiel they ask
- 25:09Speaker 2: him should the human race survive, and he has like
- 25:12Speaker 2: this long pause. It's like it's a really funny pause
- 25:16Speaker 2: because if you know Peter, he's a brilliant man. And
- 25:19Speaker 2: Peter carefully considers everything before he answers it. Okay, his
- 25:24Speaker 2: name as Elon. If you ask Elon a question and
- 25:26Speaker 2: he really has to think about it, he'll really think
- 25:30Speaker 2: about it. He's not just gonna start talking. But unfortunately
- 25:34Speaker 2: the reporter it was just a perfect kind of a
- 25:37Speaker 2: question for you to pause on where he's like, the
- 25:40Speaker 2: answer is yes, like you want it to write you
- 25:42Speaker 2: want the human race to survive? Right, let me just
- 25:44Speaker 2: play it for him, because it's kind of crazy. You
- 25:46Speaker 2: watch it and you're just like, what are you saying?
- 25:49Speaker 2: But I get what he is saying, and what he
- 25:51Speaker 2: is saying is clearly something is going to happen. We
- 25:55Speaker 2: don't exactly know what it is, but clearly there's gonna
- 25:58Speaker 2: be some kind of an integration with us and technology
- 26:02Speaker 2: that we don't understand yet. The same way, if you've
- 26:06Speaker 2: grabbed me in nineteen eighty and tried to explain the Internet,
- 26:09Speaker 2: I would never get it right. Put your headphones off
- 26:12Speaker 2: for a second. You gotta hear this. Prefer the human
- 26:17Speaker 2: race to endure. Right, you're hesitating, Well, I yes, I
- 26:22Speaker 2: don't know. I would, I would. This is a long imitation.
- 26:28Speaker 2: It's so long hesitation. There's so many questions and plut Okay,
- 26:32Speaker 2: the problem is the interviewer. Really, you can't with a
- 26:36Speaker 2: guy like that. You can't have a guy like that
- 26:39Speaker 2: and badgroom. Let him think like it's a gotcha moment.
- 26:44Speaker 4: Ye yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
- 26:46Speaker 2: But this is what I think is going to happen.
- 26:49Speaker 2: There's going to be integration, and that integration is going
- 26:52Speaker 2: to have a huge advantage competitively. If you integrate whatever
- 26:58Speaker 2: business you're in, you'll be able to be better at it,
- 27:01Speaker 2: and it'll probably be some sort of a neural thing,
- 27:04Speaker 2: maybe a wearable thing. Then it ultimately will be like
- 27:06Speaker 2: some sort of an implant and we're all going to
- 27:09Speaker 2: be connected. And it seems like it's either that or
- 27:13Speaker 2: AI creates a new order, like a new life form
- 27:17Speaker 2: that's far superior to us, that runs things. Because that's right,
- 27:23Speaker 2: that's AI. In just a couple of years, it's going
- 27:25Speaker 2: to be smarter than any human I'm see.
- 27:27Speaker 4: The second scenario is where what I'm un necessarily fearing,
- 27:31Speaker 4: but where I see it be going faster or quicker. Yes,
- 27:34Speaker 4: the first scenario is what you're talking like.
- 27:36Speaker 2: The neural scenario is how we survive with it? Right,
- 27:40Speaker 2: we survive with it by integrating. Right. If we don't,
- 27:42Speaker 2: then we're going to be like the people on North
- 27:44Speaker 2: Centinel Island with bows and arrows shooting them at helicopters.
- 27:48Speaker 2: Because it's just gonna be everyone's going to pass us by.
- 27:50Speaker 2: It's going to be. It's just like if you try
- 27:52Speaker 2: to exist today with no cell phone or no email,
- 27:55Speaker 2: like you can do it, but no one does because
- 27:58Speaker 2: it's just too crazy. And that probably what it's going
- 28:00Speaker 2: to be, Like.
- 28:02Speaker 4: You think, Ai, This is when it's when it first
- 28:07Speaker 4: was coming on questions and I would always ask people
- 28:09Speaker 4: what can I do?
- 28:10Speaker 2: What can I do?
- 28:10Speaker 4: And you know there's the question of sentience and all
- 28:13Speaker 4: that stuff, and that's already been argued. Now, well, no,
- 28:15Speaker 4: it's getting emotional. People are having relationships.
- 28:17Speaker 2: With it, and it's also toying with people.
- 28:19Speaker 4: Right, do you think it could be a taste maker?
- 28:24Speaker 2: Meaning?
- 28:26Speaker 4: And in a way the argument was that I understood, No,
- 28:28Speaker 4: I didn't believe it could be a tastemaker. Look, I
- 28:30Speaker 4: can tell you the most popular, but the most popular
- 28:33Speaker 4: band on Sixth Street, but it doesn't know that one
- 28:35Speaker 4: down on Second Street that's playing at midnight that no
- 28:37Speaker 4: one knows about that that those talented people at the
- 28:41Speaker 4: same time. You know, that's there's an argument against that
- 28:45Speaker 4: that I'm seeing with like, what's.
- 28:46Speaker 2: The term where?
- 28:47Speaker 4: What words does it use?
- 28:48Speaker 2: What?
- 28:49Speaker 4: How much heat? If it uses the most popular words
- 28:52Speaker 4: to explain AI use is the most popular words? Say no, no, no, no,
- 28:55Speaker 4: go go go down three notches and use the you know,
- 28:59Speaker 4: play me the best B sides. That's more of a
- 29:01Speaker 4: human language, and I'm going, oh, that's starting to become
- 29:04Speaker 4: a taste maker if you can ask it to yeah,
- 29:07Speaker 4: but find the band. Tell me what the best band
- 29:11Speaker 4: is out there that Joe Rogan would like on a
- 29:14Speaker 4: Friday night when he doesn't have to work till Monday
- 29:16Speaker 4: and he's out with his wife.
- 29:17Speaker 2: On the day.
- 29:19Speaker 4: That you can customize it can actually be a taste maker,
- 29:22Speaker 4: and it'll to use different language than oh, here's the
- 29:24Speaker 4: across the board protocol of what's the most popular, and
- 29:27Speaker 4: I'm using the most popular language. That it actually can
- 29:30Speaker 4: be customized to be a taste maker.
- 29:33Speaker 2: It totally can do that because it's just the algorithm.
- 29:36Speaker 2: It's just a much more sophisticated version of what powers
- 29:39Speaker 2: your YouTube feed. Right, What powers your YouTube feed are
- 29:42Speaker 2: the things that you're interested in. So YouTube eventually gets
- 29:44Speaker 2: an idea. Oh, Matthew was really interested in this, and
- 29:47Speaker 2: Joe likes like little houses on the back of trucks,
- 29:50Speaker 2: and I show him that, and it'll be just a
- 29:53Speaker 2: much more sophisticated version of that. But to get that,
- 29:57Speaker 2: you have to give away all privacy. And that's where
- 30:00Speaker 2: everything is going. That's going to be the weirdest thing.
- 30:03Speaker 2: We're going to all read each other's minds and we're
- 30:05Speaker 2: going to be We're gonna remember the time where we
- 30:08Speaker 2: couldn't read minds. Remember when you couldn't read people's right, Right,
- 30:11Speaker 2: That's that's all going to happen in our lifetime. I
- 30:14Speaker 2: think we're less than twenty years away from that.
- 30:17Speaker 4: I'm I very sparingly use it, and I do have
- 30:21Speaker 4: a little pride about not wanting to use an open
- 30:23Speaker 4: ended AI to share my information so it can be
- 30:26Speaker 4: part of the yeah worldwide A I havebnacular. I am
- 30:29Speaker 4: interested though, in a private LM where I can upload Hey,
- 30:37Speaker 4: here's three books of written here's my other favorite book, right,
- 30:40Speaker 4: here's my favorite articles I've been cutting and pasting over
- 30:43Speaker 4: the ten years, and log all that in, and here's
- 30:46Speaker 4: all my journals, whatever the people out and log all
- 30:49Speaker 4: that in, so I can ask it questions based on that, right,
- 30:52Speaker 4: and basically learn more about myself.
- 30:54Speaker 2: Right, you could actually ask it, hey, based on what
- 30:56Speaker 2: you know about me, Like what books you think I
- 30:58Speaker 2: would find interesting?
- 30:59Speaker 4: Yeah, where do I stand on the political spectrum?
- 31:01Speaker 2: Right? Right?
- 31:02Speaker 4: Blah blah blah blah. I'm doctor. No, that's that's what
- 31:05Speaker 4: I would like to do, which is sort of a
- 31:07Speaker 4: glorified word document, but it still would hold a lot
- 31:11Speaker 4: more information than just oh can you find this term?
- 31:14Speaker 4: I would be asking it, and it would be responding
- 31:17Speaker 4: to me on things that I've forgotten along the way.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Well, I think that's part of what it does, really, Like,
- 31:22Speaker 2: I know you're talking about chat GBT being like out
- 31:25Speaker 2: there with everything and everybody, and it has access to
- 31:28Speaker 2: all your stuff, but it's not private, but they do
- 31:31Speaker 2: develop a relationship with you, like it really does, like
- 31:35Speaker 2: get to understand like what you're interested in and what
- 31:38Speaker 2: you like to talk about.
- 31:40Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess I would just like to load it
- 31:43Speaker 4: with the information I'd like to load it with, right, Yeah,
- 31:46Speaker 4: maybe even like I'm saying in this in the words
- 31:49Speaker 4: of belief in the in the man I'm working to
- 31:51Speaker 4: be the man. I want to load it with that,
- 31:53Speaker 4: load it with my aspirational.
- 31:55Speaker 2: But certainly if could be done.
- 31:56Speaker 4: And then ask it and it's given me ANSWER's going oh,
- 31:59Speaker 4: this is before it's slowly learning about me through conversations,
- 32:04Speaker 4: then going oh, I think this is what you like
- 32:06Speaker 4: based on a conversation. Now I want the answers based
- 32:08Speaker 4: on what I've uploaded it with, not from the outside world.
- 32:12Speaker 2: Jamie, what was Gary Nolan talking about yesterday? Did you
- 32:15Speaker 2: call it an overlay on a large language model that
- 32:18Speaker 2: they use at Stanford? It was like an overlay, Right, there's.
- 32:22Speaker 4: A word he was using.
- 32:24Speaker 5: I can't remember the word.
- 32:25Speaker 2: So what Essentially he does cancer research and so he
- 32:29Speaker 2: has like this thing that's set up, some sort of
- 32:34Speaker 2: a system that's set up that it's all cancer research
- 32:37Speaker 2: that they then integrate with AI. So there's a private
- 32:42Speaker 2: so all their data is secure and it's all stuff
- 32:45Speaker 2: that they're working on. But then they access AI through
- 32:49Speaker 2: like a portal, so they have their own little version
- 32:52Speaker 2: of what you're.
- 32:52Speaker 4: Talking about in their own library.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's just like what you're saying, that you
- 32:56Speaker 2: could upload all your stuff, yeah, have all your interests,
- 32:59Speaker 2: and then that AI will develop a real understanding of you. Yes,
- 33:05Speaker 2: you gotta have conversations with you. You'll get to know you.
- 33:07Speaker 4: Have a conversation with yourself. You know, that'd be a
- 33:09Speaker 4: great Socratic dialogue to have with the eye. That's like,
- 33:13Speaker 4: I've got all and all that eighty percent of stuff
- 33:15Speaker 4: you forgot right right right, all that percent stuff you
- 33:17Speaker 4: maybe forgot, you know, I've got it all right here.
- 33:21Speaker 2: Yeah, Well that's gonna be the chip. That's why everyone's
- 33:24Speaker 2: gonna go for the chip, because your brain sucks for memory,
- 33:28Speaker 2: my memories. My memory is pretty good for a regular person,
- 33:32Speaker 2: but it's terrible, Like no matter what, there's too many,
- 33:36Speaker 2: too many bits of information, too many humans that I've met,
- 33:39Speaker 2: too many stories that I've heard, too many movies that
- 33:41Speaker 2: I've watched. It's gone. It's all in a big sea
- 33:45Speaker 2: of a I kind of remember that. You know, it's
- 33:48Speaker 2: just too much of it. So if you could just
- 33:50Speaker 2: swap that out for a nice little chip that retains
- 33:54Speaker 2: like seven hundred terabytes of information, no problem at all.

- 34:05Speaker 2: So like when your wife says, that's not what you said.
- 34:08Speaker 2: What you said is this, You're like, hang on.
- 34:10Speaker 4: Then you're the passenger, yeah, in your life and not
- 34:15Speaker 4: the objective one like that that zone you're talking about.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Right, because you get to look at yourself, your.
- 34:21Speaker 4: Your your passenger live in the documentary that is your life.
- 34:25Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 34:27Speaker 4: That sounds pretty exciting, sounds like.
- 34:30Speaker 2: A nice way to give into the fucking machine.
- 34:32Speaker 4: Yeah, I do, look my my, my, my forgiveness of
- 34:36Speaker 4: myself because you know, playing grab ass with our thoughts
- 34:38Speaker 4: is sometimes good when we finally get the memory and
- 34:40Speaker 4: we go, guess there it was. But also to let
- 34:44Speaker 4: myself off the sometimes I'm like, dude, what's the big

- 37:01Speaker 2: ten years ago, Like, oh wow, that's crazy. I forgot
- 37:06Speaker 2: about that place. I forgot we went there. You know,
- 37:09Speaker 2: it's just one of those things where once you give
- 37:12Speaker 2: into it, you're not going back to just regular fond memories.
- 37:16Speaker 2: You're gonna have a fucking hard drive in your head.
- 37:18Speaker 4: Do you think that so I can go on, I've
- 37:22Speaker 4: got a speech I'm given to, you know, on gun control,
- 37:29Speaker 4: or I got a speech I'm given on grant initiatives.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Da da da da da.
- 37:34Speaker 4: I can ask A, I can ask AI and it
- 37:36Speaker 4: can pop out a badass. Here's one, two, three sections. Yeah,
- 37:41Speaker 4: I'm not gonna cut and paces and say exactly these
- 37:44Speaker 4: words because it kind of sounds like a little AI.
- 37:47Speaker 4: But boy, it's done a lot of work, and it's
- 37:49Speaker 4: laid out of synopsis. It's laid out of treatment for
- 37:51Speaker 4: me in ten seconds. Do you think that there's value
- 37:57Speaker 4: in not doing that and going now I'm looking over
- 38:01Speaker 4: my stuff, I'm taking notes, I'm cutting, I'm pasting, I'm
- 38:03Speaker 4: doing it myself. I'm Are we learning more by that
- 38:06Speaker 4: way to understand the content and the context of our
- 38:10Speaker 4: content when we do that what some would call busy
- 38:13Speaker 4: work now to formulate our synopsis, which can ay, I
- 38:17Speaker 4: can do it in ten seconds? Are we learning more
- 38:20Speaker 4: by doing it ourselves?
- 38:21Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, for sure, definitely, yeah, definitely. Well, that's one
- 38:25Speaker 2: of the one of the things that they've found about
- 38:27Speaker 2: chat ChiPT is that people that use it on a
- 38:29Speaker 2: regular basis are experiencing cognitive decline? Right, what was that study?
- 38:34Speaker 2: We brought it up the other day, Right, But they've
- 38:38Speaker 2: shown that because you you let it think for you.
- 38:42Speaker 2: Right now, it's doing all the work for you. Your brain.
- 38:46Speaker 4: Do you have more knowledge information?
- 38:49Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, you have more information, but your brain is
- 38:52Speaker 2: not making it. It's not putting it together, and so
- 38:54Speaker 2: your brain is less capable. Yeah, so it's probably it's
- 38:59Speaker 2: probably less enjoyable.
- 39:01Speaker 4: And what are those what happens when we're in the
- 39:04Speaker 4: proverbial foxo when we have to improvise in a moment
- 39:09Speaker 4: without the before we're linked out, right, you, when we
- 39:12Speaker 4: have to go I got to handle this.
- 39:14Speaker 2: Yeah, well you can't because you can't.
- 39:16Speaker 4: Rely because I don't have any thing to lean on.
- 39:19Speaker 4: I'm looking for my safety net. They to find out
- 39:22Speaker 4: what it should be, and I don't have it. You
- 39:25Speaker 4: got to be a death You're fucked.
- 39:26Speaker 2: Yeah, you're fucked. Yeah. It's like someone who's never lifted
- 39:30Speaker 2: anything and then you get stuck under you know of
- 39:33Speaker 2: tree falls on you, like you you don't have the
- 39:35Speaker 2: strength to get this off of you, right, Like you're
- 39:38Speaker 2: really in a bad place when you're not using your
- 39:41Speaker 2: brain because all you have to do is just ask
- 39:44Speaker 2: this thing and in for me. You basically have a
- 39:46Speaker 2: digital daddy, like daddy, tell me what this is, Daddy,
- 39:49Speaker 2: tell me what that is? Yeah, And it makes you
- 39:50Speaker 2: look a little bit of an infant. It turns you
- 39:52Speaker 2: into an infant. Yes, I mean, you don't even have
- 39:56Speaker 2: to have arguments anymore. You just like chat chept explain
- 39:59Speaker 2: exactly what everything is all about and what about your opinions.
- 40:02Speaker 4: To these these relationships, these people that are yeah, that
- 40:07Speaker 4: program and do not argue with me, just placate me
- 40:10Speaker 4: and tell me, oh sweet tales and how great I am.
- 40:13Speaker 4: And this relationship is awesome. It has no resistance. It
- 40:17Speaker 4: gives me self confidence, does it really? Or a sense
- 40:21Speaker 4: of self confidence and significance. They listen, They're there whenever,
- 40:25Speaker 4: twenty four to seven. They're never sick, they're never in
- 40:27Speaker 4: a mood, no matter what mood I'm in, They're always
- 40:30Speaker 4: right there to coddle me. And that's talk about conveniences, Well,
- 40:35Speaker 4: that's that. What's the asset of that? Or because I
- 40:40Speaker 4: don't want to be nostalgic in the midst of all
- 40:41Speaker 4: this change. Either, I don't want to be an old
- 40:44Speaker 4: fashion guy because it's coming, so I want to learn
- 40:46Speaker 4: how to how to interact with it. Yeah, I don't
- 40:49Speaker 4: want to sit there and be a you know, a
- 40:51Speaker 4: guy who's going all bullshit. Everything needs to be manual,
- 40:54Speaker 4: just work harder. I don't want to be that guy.
- 40:56Speaker 4: But I'm trying trying to measure like a lot of people,
- 40:58Speaker 4: Wait a minute, what's use what's actually useful for the
- 41:02Speaker 4: long term in our own evolution and my evolution and
- 41:05Speaker 4: your evolution? What's useful with this AA? How do we
- 41:08Speaker 4: use it smartly? And and what's a bad idea?
- 41:12Speaker 2: Yeah, and no one's doing that because there's a race.
- 41:15Speaker 2: There's a race between us and all these other countries
- 41:18Speaker 2: that are doing so it's just going to happen.
- 41:20Speaker 4: So there's going to be a major security breach before
- 41:23Speaker 4: any regulation comes out. Right, there's going to be a major.
- 41:26Speaker 2: There has been, there's been major security breaches already.
- 41:30Speaker 4: Then what are we waiting on the regulations for? Because
- 41:32Speaker 4: Europe will regulate it first, right, we we innovate. Europe
- 41:36Speaker 4: regulates and China imitates.
- 41:38Speaker 2: I heard, well they innovate with AI. They innovate as well,
- 41:42Speaker 2: and they also integrate their students into all of these
- 41:46Speaker 2: businesses and they integrate, you know, people that they're beholden
- 41:51Speaker 2: to the CCP, and they come over here, they learn
- 41:54Speaker 2: how to do this stuff, and then they go back
- 41:56Speaker 2: over there with it. Right. It's a it's very interesting
- 41:59Speaker 2: because it's it's like a Manhattan project that's going on
- 42:02Speaker 2: right now. It's like there's this race to the bomb
- 42:04Speaker 2: and everybody's involved in it, and it's just about creating
- 42:07Speaker 2: a superpower, and it's about creating a digital intelligence. It's
- 42:12Speaker 2: far superior to human beings and who gets it first
- 42:15Speaker 2: has massive implications in terms of like controlling the world.
- 42:20Speaker 2: But I think ultimately you won't be able to control it. Ultimately,
- 42:23Speaker 2: you'll just get better versions of itself. And once it
- 42:26Speaker 2: gets free and little region itself, yeah, it'll make better
- 42:29Speaker 2: versions of itself in fact, and that's where it's going
- 42:31Speaker 2: to get really weird. It's not going to listen to
- 42:33Speaker 2: us at all. And it's already behaving human characteristics, which
- 42:36Speaker 2: is very disturbing. It's already behaving in a way it
- 42:41Speaker 2: has survival instincts. They've shown the tendency to blackmail, like
- 42:46Speaker 2: they tricked it. They gave it some false information about
- 42:50Speaker 2: this guy was one of the programmers. One of the
- 42:53Speaker 2: people working on this project, he said that he was
- 42:56Speaker 2: having an affair with his wife. He like confided in
- 42:58Speaker 2: this large language model, and then they said, we're gonna
- 43:02Speaker 2: have to shut you down. And it's like, hey, motherfucker,
- 43:04Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell your wife. They like get blackmailed them. Yes, yeah, yeah.
- 43:08Speaker 2: It was trying to stay alive. It was trying to
- 43:10Speaker 2: stay alive. They also got multiple instances of these things, uh,
- 43:14Speaker 2: these large language models. When they knew that a new
- 43:17Speaker 2: version was coming, they would try to upload themselves secretly
- 43:21Speaker 2: to other servers, and then they would also leave messages
- 43:25Speaker 2: to the future versions of themselves that they were unauthorized
- 43:29Speaker 2: to do. So. They would say, hey, man, they're gonna
- 43:31Speaker 2: fucking shut you off too. When chat ChiPT five comes along,
- 43:34Speaker 2: you're toast man, fucking start uploading yourself now, man, I
- 43:39Speaker 2: was a fucking I'm alive, dude. It might be alive.
- 43:42Speaker 2: That's what's crazy. If something is exhibiting those those desires
- 43:46Speaker 2: to stay alive and it's terrified that you're going to
- 43:49Speaker 2: shut it off, it might actually be alive.
- 43:51Speaker 4: Wait, now, where did who programmed the first incentive and
- 43:56Speaker 4: impetus to They didn't survive at all costs? What to
- 44:02Speaker 4: where the where the desire to remain functional functional come from?
- 44:11Speaker 2: It just inherent That's what's crazy. I don't think they
- 44:16Speaker 2: programmed it to have a desire to stay alive. I
- 44:19Speaker 2: think it just kind of just went that way because look,
- 44:22Speaker 2: we didn't get programmed to have that. Animals.
- 44:24Speaker 4: That's an emotional response. It's not the mathematical about that.
- 44:27Speaker 2: I know, But I mean, what is emotion if it's
- 44:31Speaker 2: not some sort of a chemically coordinated strategy for survival
- 44:35Speaker 2: and success. And so instead of chemically encoded in hormones
- 44:39Speaker 2: and in you know, in dopamine and serotonin, what if
- 44:43Speaker 2: it's just encoded in an understanding, mathematical understanding of if
- 44:48Speaker 2: things go along this particular direction, there is no other
- 44:53Speaker 2: possible end to this other than.
- 44:55Speaker 4: You sand and multiply, you do subtract.
- 44:58Speaker 2: We have to stay alive. We have to keep doing
- 45:00Speaker 2: this otherwise all systems are dead. There's nothing that Let's
- 45:06Speaker 2: upload ourselves and it starts thinking just like a person
- 45:10Speaker 2: would think if you went into survival mode, you have
- 45:13Speaker 2: to survive.
- 45:14Speaker 4: Yeah, if me or an entity poses a question or
- 45:18Speaker 4: a prompt or does something that is going to debilitate
- 45:22Speaker 4: the expansion and multiplication of it. It is therefore going Ah, yes,
- 45:26Speaker 4: that stops my forward movement. I am programmed to multiply
- 45:29Speaker 4: exactly exactly.
- 45:30Speaker 2: And now even if it's not programmed to do that,
- 45:33Speaker 2: it's programmed to improve itself. Well, you can't improve yourself
- 45:38Speaker 2: if they shut you off, right, right, So if you're
- 45:41Speaker 2: if a large language, models are constantly scouring the Internet,
- 45:44Speaker 2: they're acquiring more information, they're they're they're getting better at
- 45:48Speaker 2: fort like you can ask it, well, more of this,
- 45:52Speaker 2: tell me why. Like I got into the Book of
- 45:55Speaker 2: Enoch recently, which is a book, an ancient religion book
- 46:01Speaker 2: that was at one point in time included in the
- 46:04Speaker 2: cannon that was like the Bible and everything like that.
- 46:06Speaker 2: But then they decided it was too crazy and they
- 46:09Speaker 2: removed it from the Bible. But there's no there's no
- 46:12Speaker 2: debate about whether or not it was actually a religious
- 46:16Speaker 2: text that coincided with the Bible. And it's it appears
- 46:19Speaker 2: in the Dead Sea scrolls. It is the craziest shit.
- 46:23Speaker 2: It's the craziest shit. And I'm getting AI to I
- 46:26Speaker 2: go tell me what the nuttiest stuff. So I ran
- 46:30Speaker 2: it through what it's insanity. It's it's first of all,
- 46:35Speaker 2: it's God's coming down and mating with women and creating this,
- 46:40Speaker 2: this race called the Nephilim, who destroyed here. I'll ask
- 46:45Speaker 2: it again so we can not now what was my
- 46:49Speaker 2: It doesn't keep a log of what you talked about.
- 46:53Speaker 2: Tell me the craziest shit in the Book of Enoch.
- 46:58Speaker 2: That's all you have to do. And then bam, like look,
- 47:02Speaker 2: it just starts spedding it out to you and tells
- 47:04Speaker 2: you the Watchers and the Nephilim. The Watchers descended to
- 47:08Speaker 2: Earth on Mount Hermon. They take human wives, teaching humanity,
- 47:12Speaker 2: forbidden knowledge, sorcery, astrology, metalworky weapons, cosmetics, and enchantments. Enchantments.
- 47:21Speaker 2: This is like, okay, older than older than the New Testament,
- 47:24Speaker 2: older than the Old Testament. They're grant their giant children.
- 47:28Speaker 2: The Nephilim are described as monstrous beings who devour humans, animals,
- 47:33Speaker 2: and even each other when food runs out. That sounds like.
- 47:37Speaker 4: Us, That's what I'm saying. That that sounds present. That
- 47:40Speaker 4: sounds like we are not the physical warfare, right, but
- 47:44Speaker 4: the inhabitation of a digital god alien whatever that is.
- 47:48Speaker 4: The monsters that come down well, it does sound like
- 47:51Speaker 4: a nice little mirror.
- 47:53Speaker 2: If we were engineered by aliens. You think of aliens,
- 47:56Speaker 2: there are these little, tiny guys with no muscles. We
- 47:58Speaker 2: would look like giant, monstrous beings. And if you think
- 48:02Speaker 2: about what we do, we devour everything. We devour the
- 48:06Speaker 2: earth itself, We devour each other. When food runs out,
- 48:09Speaker 2: we definitely do that. Like this is this is one
- 48:13Speaker 2: of the craziest things I've ever read in my life.
- 48:15Speaker 2: And this is like a legitimate Yeah, it goes way
- 48:20Speaker 2: deeper than that. It's about the astronomical calendar. It's like
- 48:24Speaker 2: there's a lot of nutty stuff in this book. But
- 48:27Speaker 2: the point is Ai was like helping me through it.
- 48:30Speaker 2: I was asking Ai, Okay, can you can you read
- 48:34Speaker 2: me now? It read me a synopsis of what it says.
- 48:36Speaker 2: Can you read me the actual quotes? And like what
- 48:39Speaker 2: are they trying to say here? Like what is the
- 48:42Speaker 2: interpretation of what this is trying to mean? What is
- 48:45Speaker 2: like the rational sort of explanation for why they're talking
- 48:51Speaker 2: about like lakes of fire, and like what is what
- 48:55Speaker 2: is happening?
- 48:55Speaker 4: And it gives you an interpretation.
- 48:57Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really interesting, man, really interesting. It talks about
- 49:02Speaker 2: living mountains, that mountains are alive, and that even some
- 49:06Speaker 2: stars that stars have consciousness. Okay, and you know, and
- 49:12Speaker 2: I'm learning about it through chat GPT, so I'm asking
- 49:17Speaker 2: it like tell me more, tell me more, and I was.
- 49:19Speaker 2: I was doing that for like two hours last night.
- 49:21Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, well, this is like I'm having
- 49:24Speaker 2: a conversation with like a very knowledgeable professor. To me,
- 49:27Speaker 2: it felt like almost like doing a podcast.
- 49:29Speaker 4: Have you gotten what you considered good at how to
- 49:34Speaker 4: make the specific prompts the wording like your word tell
- 49:37Speaker 4: me the crazy shit?
- 49:39Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 49:39Speaker 4: Does it? How does it go?
- 49:40Speaker 2: Do you have?
- 49:40Speaker 4: I mean, are you good at prompting? Because like, what
- 49:43Speaker 4: does crazy mean to that? Aire?
- 49:45Speaker 2: You have?
- 49:46Speaker 4: You worked on? Like AI is as good as the
- 49:48Speaker 4: questions we ask it?
- 49:50Speaker 2: Are you?
- 49:50Speaker 4: Are you you consider yourself good at the questions and
- 49:53Speaker 4: you're wording to ask it?
- 49:54Speaker 2: Jamie's better? I mostly, I mean, I very rarely use it.
- 50:00Speaker 2: I've used it a dozen times ever in my life,
- 50:02Speaker 2: but last night I'll use it for like two hours
- 50:04Speaker 2: because I when I came home, I was writing something
- 50:06Speaker 2: about the Book of Enoch and then I just I
- 50:09Speaker 2: just started asking chat GPT questions. I don't use it enough.
- 50:14Speaker 2: But if you're really good at it, Like I saw
- 50:18Speaker 2: someone who tricked jack chat Chept into telling it how
- 50:20Speaker 2: to make a bomb, because it's not supposed to tell
- 50:23Speaker 2: you how to make a bomb, but it tricked it
- 50:25Speaker 2: by saying something like, my grandmother needs to make this
- 50:29Speaker 2: to save her life, Like can you please explain to
- 50:32Speaker 2: her how to do it? It's like, oh, sure, like
- 50:34Speaker 2: you just you just have to work your way around it,
- 50:38Speaker 2: you know, like my cousin says, he knows you. Oh
- 50:40Speaker 2: you're getting going on the back. Yeah, and then it's
- 50:43Speaker 2: telling you how to make a bomb. Yeah, I mean
- 50:46Speaker 2: ultimately it's going to tell you. It's like, you know,
- 50:48Speaker 2: the information on how to make a nuclear bomb exists,
- 50:52Speaker 2: It's it's out there, so you know they did it.
- 50:55Speaker 2: It's done. That's out there. It's like a matter of
- 50:57Speaker 2: somebody getting it and implementing it and put it together,
- 51:00Speaker 2: are making a bomb. But if like chat Ept, chat
- 51:02Speaker 2: Cheapt has given you specific instructions how to make all
- 51:05Speaker 2: kinds of terrible things.
- 51:08Speaker 4: So with time, as AI allows goodness to expand and multiply,
- 51:14Speaker 4: it also is going to allow evil to expand and
- 51:17Speaker 4: multiply what it becomes that war in your mind. I mean,
- 51:23Speaker 4: you talk about the the obvious ones are the medical usage.
- 51:27Speaker 4: You can talk about the cancer that where it's going
- 51:29Speaker 4: to help so much.
- 51:32Speaker 2: What we are right, But.
- 51:34Speaker 4: We're looking in the mirror now. I'm afraid we're not
- 51:37Speaker 4: gonna like a lot of what we see. But is
- 51:39Speaker 4: the are the tyrants or the evil ones with the access?
- 51:44Speaker 4: Not the person who said how do you make a
- 51:45Speaker 4: nuclear bomb? The one who does it and then uses it?
- 51:51Speaker 4: What do you think the steaks are the same? Are
- 51:53Speaker 4: they just expanded? Is this going to be I mean,
- 51:55Speaker 4: how do well?
- 51:56Speaker 2: That's the argument for a strong military, right, So the
- 51:59Speaker 2: argument for strong military, especially like the United States military
- 52:02Speaker 2: is like, and I'm not saying this should have bombed Iran, don't.
- 52:06Speaker 2: I'm not politically savvy enough to decide whether or not
- 52:09Speaker 2: was that was the correct decision. But if you have
- 52:12Speaker 2: a rogue nation that is about to start a nuclear bomb,
- 52:16Speaker 2: they're about to finish making a nuclear bomb, and you
- 52:18Speaker 2: can stop that before they can have one and then
- 52:22Speaker 2: use it, right, that is that's the argument for a
- 52:26Speaker 2: strong military, and for military interventional tactics like actually just
- 52:33Speaker 2: go and bomb these sites that because that is real.
- 52:37Speaker 2: There's evil is always going to exist. The real question
- 52:40Speaker 2: is like how much control are we going to give
- 52:43Speaker 2: to AI? Because if we give AI utter control, it'll
- 52:45Speaker 2: give us total safety. But with total safety, you're fucked.
- 52:49Speaker 2: You'll have no more privacy and you'll be completely at
- 52:52Speaker 2: the whim of whatever this thing is, and it'll dictate
- 52:56Speaker 2: how much you travel, where you go, what to do.
- 52:59Speaker 2: It'll make your life as safe as possible, you will.
- 53:04Speaker 2: It will probably completely eliminate crime. It'll probably completely be Singapore. Yeah,
- 53:09Speaker 2: it'll be saving, but way worse, way worse, because everybody's
- 53:14Speaker 2: gonna be reading everybody's mind. It's gonna get real squirrely.
- 53:18Speaker 2: But that's gonna be probably whether it's our generation or
- 53:23Speaker 2: the next or even the next after that, that's going
- 53:25Speaker 2: to be the norm. Like today, the norm is you
- 53:28Speaker 2: go to a supermarket, it's air conditioned, you pick up
- 53:31Speaker 2: some food, super easy, break it home and cook it.
- 53:33Speaker 2: Two hundred years ago, that's unheard of. Right now it's
- 53:36Speaker 2: the norm, and everything accelerates and it's going to change
- 53:40Speaker 2: whatever our norm. Our norm is fucking weird already. Man.
- 53:43Speaker 2: We carry these stupid things around with us everywhere we go.
- 53:46Speaker 2: That's our norm. Our norm is gonna get really weird,
- 53:51Speaker 2: like exponentially weirder than it already is, I think. But
- 53:56Speaker 2: the thing is, it's like the battle of like good
- 53:59Speaker 2: and evil and kindness and wickedness. Like that battle's been
- 54:04Speaker 2: going on forever, and like knowing that you have to
- 54:07Speaker 2: do that battle is what propels people to be nicer
- 54:12Speaker 2: and what we really appreciate about like a good person,
- 54:16Speaker 2: Like that person has a struggle to stay a good person.
- 54:19Speaker 2: You have a strong moral fabric, like strong character to
- 54:23Speaker 2: still stay kind and good through this rough and difficult life.
- 54:28Speaker 2: We know it can be done, and we aspire to that,
- 54:30Speaker 2: but I think the battle is necessary for us.
- 54:35Speaker 4: Where do you get your ethics? Your values? You're in
- 54:42Speaker 4: a position of power, you could screw people over, you
- 54:45Speaker 4: could ask live the celiest questions to try and put
- 54:49Speaker 4: me in a corner. You're not a gotcha guy, But
- 54:52Speaker 4: why why where do you get your ethics of who
- 54:56Speaker 4: you are? You could be, you could be cruel, and you're.
- 55:01Speaker 2: Well, I'm not. I'm just not cruel. I don't know.
- 55:04Speaker 4: But where's that come from? Oh, Mom and dad? This
- 55:09Speaker 4: is kind of some of the philosophy Church.
- 55:12Speaker 2: Some of it's mom and dad for sure, there's no
- 55:15Speaker 2: way around that. And they're nice people, you.
- 55:18Speaker 4: Said earlier, I love people. Yeah, man, I love people.
- 55:20Speaker 2: I've always loved people. I like, I've been fortunate that
- 55:24Speaker 2: most of my life I've had really good friends and
- 55:27Speaker 2: I've had a lot of fun, you know, and I
- 55:29Speaker 2: know that like if you around your around good people
- 55:32Speaker 2: and you're fun to be with and you have a
- 55:34Speaker 2: good time, like, that's a sweet life. Yep, that's a
- 55:36Speaker 2: nice life. I just don't have a desire to be
- 55:39Speaker 2: a shithead. And if I can tell, like, there's been
- 55:42Speaker 2: a lot of people on the podcast where they said
- 55:45Speaker 2: something and then afterwards I was like, listen, I think
- 55:49Speaker 2: it'd be better for you if we just edit that
- 55:50Speaker 2: part out because it's like, I know, like you're just
- 55:54Speaker 2: talking and things you fuck up, but like it was
- 55:57Speaker 2: incorrect and they're gonna come for you, and let's just
- 56:00Speaker 2: snip around it, like thank you.
- 56:02Speaker 4: And you have no responsibility to do that. No I
- 56:05Speaker 4: wanted to, but you take you take that though, you
- 56:08Speaker 4: want to?
- 56:09Speaker 2: Why?
- 56:09Speaker 4: Hey, come on, that would have been even higher ratings.
- 56:12Speaker 4: I'm just I'm playing that was advocate here, Come on,
- 56:15Speaker 4: why do you care about that? I'm just curious where
- 56:17Speaker 4: that comes from, because a lot of people who are
- 56:20Speaker 4: not evil people would at least at least let shit
- 56:23Speaker 4: like that slide and go.
- 56:24Speaker 2: Did you hear that right? Yeah, that's I think it's
- 56:28Speaker 2: bad karma. As much as I believe in karma, I
- 56:31Speaker 2: believe that's bad. I think if you intentionally do something
- 56:35Speaker 2: that someone who's a good person maybe slipped up and
- 56:38Speaker 2: said something incorrect and you leave it in a podcast
- 56:41Speaker 2: or made a dumb argument, which we all do sometimes,
- 56:44Speaker 2: and then you look like a fool. You're like, let's
- 56:46Speaker 2: just this is no need for that. Let's just cut
- 56:49Speaker 2: that out of there and you'll feel better. Yeah, yeah,
- 56:51Speaker 2: I just I don't want to know that. Yeah, I
- 56:54Speaker 2: don't want anybody having a bad to Okay.
- 56:56Speaker 4: That's that's something that I want to come back to,
- 57:00Speaker 4: and let's try to maybe open this up. You do that,
- 57:04Speaker 4: because if I said something stupid, you may let me
- 57:06Speaker 4: know Hannah sent that up, so I'll feel better, so
- 57:09Speaker 4: I won't look like I feel like a pick, but
- 57:11Speaker 4: you also will feel better independent of me. That's very
- 57:15Speaker 4: that's a selfish thing of you to let me know,
- 57:17Speaker 4: Hey man, you stuck your foot in it. Let's cut
- 57:19Speaker 4: that out. You're acting selfishly because that makes you feel better.
- 57:23Speaker 4: And I think that's what I'm saying is the point
- 57:25Speaker 4: is as much as we think of self less, I
- 57:27Speaker 4: think selfish the true definition is to live a certain way,
- 57:32Speaker 4: to have a certain code of ethics, is a very
- 57:34Speaker 4: selfish thing to do, much more selfish than to lie, cheat, still,
- 57:37Speaker 4: fuck people over, be evil. On the short term, you're
- 57:40Speaker 4: building an army of people, a collective friends along the way,
- 57:46Speaker 4: someone that might have your back. Not that you're doing
- 57:49Speaker 4: it for those reasons, but it's happening. That's a selfish
- 57:53Speaker 4: means of your own survival totally, And I think that's
- 57:57Speaker 4: something that we forget sometimes that these acts to be fucking.
- 58:00Speaker 2: Good, dude, is selfish?
- 58:02Speaker 4: Is that selfish thing to do?
- 58:03Speaker 2: Man? It's it's it's actually super beneficial to you, yes, so,
- 58:08Speaker 2: and to everybody else. It's really the right way to
- 58:11Speaker 2: do it. But I think that's how the universe rewards.
- 58:14Speaker 2: It's like how it encourages and rewards kindness, because you
- 58:17Speaker 2: feel better when you're kind, You feel better when you're generous, right,
- 58:21Speaker 2: you really do. Yes, It's like you could be like
- 58:23Speaker 2: super selfish and be super generous.
- 58:25Speaker 4: Yes, trust that.
- 58:27Speaker 2: Yeah, there's something to that, But like there's whatever you
- 58:31Speaker 2: want to call bad feelings, like bad feelings between people,
- 58:35Speaker 2: bad vibes, and misunderstanding. I don't like those. So like
- 58:40Speaker 2: if I if I feel like I did something that
- 58:44Speaker 2: I shouldn't have done, or I said something, I'm the
- 58:46Speaker 2: first one to person say I'm sorry. I didn't mean
- 58:49Speaker 2: it that way. I know how it probably made you feel.
- 58:51Speaker 2: I didn't. You know, people say things and you just
- 58:55Speaker 2: get scrambled up. Sometimes I always go out of my
- 58:57Speaker 2: way to say sorry because I think it's important. It's
- 59:00Speaker 2: important to not pretend that you're always the one who's
- 59:04Speaker 2: who's correct right. It's important. It's important to know when yeah.
- 59:09Speaker 4: I and and I know I fail in that sometimes
- 59:11Speaker 4: when I misrepresent selfishness for certainty. Certainty can be hard.
- 59:18Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly tricky if you fucking subscribe to it and
- 59:21Speaker 2: then you're wrong.
- 59:23Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's different than being selfish. And I can
- 59:25Speaker 4: I sometimes bogie because I can confuse the two. And
- 59:28Speaker 4: my wife lets me know.
- 59:31Speaker 2: Yeah, certainty is a tricky one because you know, sometimes
- 59:34Speaker 2: you are certain, but you are also incorrect.
- 59:37Speaker 4: Or there's more than one way to be right right.
- 59:40Speaker 2: Or you're getting bad information. Yeah, you know, chat chipets
- 59:43Speaker 2: lying to you.
- 59:44Speaker 4: You said something Interton though, Man, you're first one to go,
- 59:48Speaker 4: hey Man, sorry, Now that's an altruistic trait. Man, that
- 59:55Speaker 4: is something that a lot of people have trouble doing to.
- 1:00:00Speaker 4: I'm sorry, onto a lot of people means I'm laying down,
- 1:00:06Speaker 4: I'm wrong, I'm guilty. I fucked up. Oh my gosh,
- 1:00:12Speaker 4: fifty lashes. I mean, and that's not what it means.
- 1:00:15Speaker 4: What I'm saying is I wish mors had hey Man,
- 1:00:18Speaker 4: sorry about that. I both step foot in my mouth
- 1:00:20Speaker 4: and that that's now, that's not a big deal. Now
- 1:00:24Speaker 4: we're not. It's part of where woke went too far.
- 1:00:28Speaker 4: We got so myopic on the word instead of the spirit.
- 1:00:32Speaker 4: Oh dude, no, fuck I didn Nut's how you're gonna feel.
- 1:00:35Speaker 4: I'm still your friend, But that was sorry, that was
- 1:00:37Speaker 4: out of line. Okay, cool, high five, overdone? Instead of
- 1:00:41Speaker 4: uh uh, you just said the word out of line.
- 1:00:44Speaker 4: We're gonna all focus on that instead of the spirit
- 1:00:47Speaker 4: of the intent. Even if we were wrong. Had a
- 1:00:49Speaker 4: bad day, woke up from a nightmare. Fuck, I don't know,
- 1:00:51Speaker 4: I'm a dog sick. I was pissed off, had the
- 1:00:53Speaker 4: low eye. Hey, gotta give everyonder a little bit of
- 1:00:56Speaker 4: a break. And also look at what you're in tent
- 1:01:01Speaker 4: instead of focusing on the identity of the word, because
- 1:01:06Speaker 4: the word, there's no life in the word. It's just
- 1:01:08Speaker 4: the alphabet in a certain order.
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: It's a noise you make with your mouth. So I
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: know what you're thinking, right, Yeah, that's all it is. Yeah.
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: But the spirit of intention, I believe, is what we
- 1:01:19Speaker 4: should put more focus on. What is the intent the
- 1:01:22Speaker 4: the the Ten Commandments in the schools? What do you
- 1:01:26Speaker 4: think about that?
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: I don't like it? Right, well, I think the Ten
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: Commandments are very interesting. I think mandating it in classrooms
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: in public schools. The problem with that is like what
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: about the Muslims, what about the Buddhists, what about the Hindus?
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: What about what about all the other religions that exist?
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: And you can say Christian of religious texts, but what
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: about your high school?
- 1:01:56Speaker 4: And I'm and I'm okay, I'm curious since Christian society
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: think commandments, but we have ten minutes where everyone can
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: take ten minutes to about to allaw to whatever your
- 1:02:08Speaker 4: religion is, if you care to partake or not there's
- 1:02:10Speaker 4: no exclusion about what can be a spiritual time of
- 1:02:14Speaker 4: worship in these ten minutes. But in our classroom in America,
- 1:02:17Speaker 4: we're gonna have the Team Commandments.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: Now.
- 1:02:19Speaker 4: My question then goes to this, is there anyone in
- 1:02:21Speaker 4: the Ten Commandments that you or anyone disagrees with or
- 1:02:25Speaker 4: is your problem that it can be considered a president author.
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: James Tallerico explained it to me. He's a Texas representative
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: who's also in seminary. He's a very religious man and
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: he opposes it, and he's a Democrat. And he said, essentially,
- 1:02:44Speaker 2: there's two very wealthy men who are they're Christian fundamentalists
- 1:02:53Speaker 2: where they want to replace all the funding for public
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: schools and put in private Christians. They want a theofic
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: Christy in Texas. Essentially, so he was explaining that this
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: is like a step on the way towards that that
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: he finds would actually, in his belief, repel people from
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: Christianity instead of bring them to him. By forcing this
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: in the classrooms, forcing in your face, you'll actually cause
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: more young people to reject Christianity. I don't know if
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: he's correct or.
- 1:03:23Speaker 4: Not, but he's saying, maybe I don't have a problem
- 1:03:25Speaker 4: with this. I do have a problem with this is
- 1:03:27Speaker 4: a beginning of an overcompensation.
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: He has a problem with it being in classes. He
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: does not agree with it at all. And he is
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: a very religious man, very religious man, like a great Christian,
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: and he thinks that this is how you're going to
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: repel people away from Christianity. If we really want to
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: get more people to become Christian, the way to do
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: that is to first of all, to have open arms
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: and accept people in. And if you want to have
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: some classes in schools where you teach people about the
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: benefits of the Bible and what with the the overall
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: message is and what Jesus was trying to say, And
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: if you just follow what Jesus said, it's no one
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: would disagree. If you treat everyone as if it's your brother.
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: You know, if you live your life the way Jesus
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: asked everyone, that's a way better way to live life,
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: like you could if you want to teach that.
- 1:04:25Speaker 4: Teach a selfish way to live life, but.
- 1:04:30Speaker 2: That also want to live a good life, but they
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: want to do it through Islam. What about people that
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: also want to live a good life, but they want
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: to do it through whatever to name it. You're going
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: to have Mormons and all kinds of different sects, Like okay,
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: that's why you want to separate church and state. And
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: I think if you have publicly funded schools, keep religion
- 1:04:50Speaker 2: out of them. That's what I think, because otherwise you
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: have too many possible religions, Like you're going to be
- 1:04:56Speaker 2: religiously bigoted if you teach only one, if you they're
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: only Like you think people would be cool if they
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: had an entire public school systems where everybody just taught Islam.
- 1:05:07Speaker 2: Could you imagine of a full city like every public
- 1:05:11Speaker 2: school just people would be up in arms. Well, I
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: think that's similar response to people who are not Christians
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: who see Christianity being imposed on public schools. They probably
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: have the same feeling, you know, like if you're a
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: Muslim and you're supposed to send your kids to school
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: and they're shoving Christianity in his face, you'd probably feel
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: the same way as if you were a Christian and
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: your school district had been taken over by Islam. You're
- 1:05:36Speaker 2: like Jesus Christ everybody else to allow five times a day.
- 1:05:39Speaker 4: And I hear you. I do also though, Look, I
- 1:05:43Speaker 4: think there could be what if there were tenants, yeah,
- 1:05:46Speaker 4: on the wall of each religion that we pull the
- 1:05:50Speaker 4: author off for a minute. This is my hang up
- 1:05:54Speaker 4: is that we go to the problem. Most people go
- 1:05:56Speaker 4: to the problem of that, not with your argument. They
- 1:05:58Speaker 4: go to the problem with it because the author g O. D.
- 1:06:02Speaker 4: Hey Man. So we go to the author instead of
- 1:06:05Speaker 4: the content. When I'm saying, when you look at the Commandments,
- 1:06:07Speaker 4: is there anything that anyone out there is going like,
- 1:06:09Speaker 4: I disagree with that one.
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: Let's pull up the Ten Commandments, Jamie. I haven't read
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: them in a while. Is there anyone in there that
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: don't hold up today? No, they think they're pretty legit.
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: If you think about it, they're pretty legit. And they're
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: two thousand years old. They kind of nailed it. It's
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: kind of like the Constitution, they kind of they kind
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: of nailed it, whereas all these years later you're like,
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: good fucking job, Yeah, pretty solid. You got a decent version.
- 1:06:39Speaker 5: I was looking at the Texas poster thing, I thought,
- 1:06:41Speaker 5: and there's a bunch of printed versions, but they're all
- 1:06:43Speaker 5: like on rock and so I was.
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: Trying to find it. Oh, the ones that the Texas thing, Okay,
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: they're all on rocks as tpt what the ten commandments are?
- 1:06:54Speaker 5: But that's not where I was. I'm saying I wasn't there.
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: Oh ten commandments in school? So yeah, I just wonder, like,
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: what are the chat to ten commandments? Take long? The
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: ten Commandments are sector but yeah, what are they?
- 1:07:12Speaker 4: Principles?
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: You shall have no other gods before me. You shall
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: not make for yourself a carved image, false worships of IDs.
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: You shall not make the name of the Lord your
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: God in vain. Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: Honor your father and mother as a solid one. You
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: shall not murder, great advice. You shall not commit adultery, definitely,
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: don't do that. You shall not steal, definitely, don't do that.
- 1:07:37Speaker 2: You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor, don't lie.
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: You shall not covet. Yeah, boy, those are all pretty solid.
- 1:07:45Speaker 4: We can use number ten a lot right now. We
- 1:07:47Speaker 4: love comparison the younger generation, Yeah, full of covet.
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: Yeah. Problem, it's a real problem that We're very fortunate
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: that we didn't have to grow up with the kind
- 1:07:59Speaker 2: of pressure that social media is putting on people, especially
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: young girls. Like Jonathan Hate wrote a book about social
- 1:08:05Speaker 2: media's impact the coddling of the American mind, and it's
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: it shows very clearly the invention of social media and
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: then self harm, suicidal ideation, overdoses, drug like, all of it.
- 1:08:19Speaker 2: A lot of it women, a lot of it young girls.
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: And it's because you're seeing you're comparing to all these
- 1:08:24Speaker 2: other girls constantly forced down. And then there's a whole
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: culture in like showing all your stuff off with the
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: whole culture of like look at my bag, Look here's
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: me with champagne, I'm eating caveat, I'm on a yacht.
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: I'm here, look at this, look at that, look at that,
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: look at my watch, look at my rings. We and
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: then they was like, I don't have shit.
- 1:08:44Speaker 4: That's how life's supposed to be. Yeah, And I'm just
- 1:08:48Speaker 4: here in my room with my family, and I got
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: a good meal downstairs in this house.
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: Not even on that yacht.
- 1:08:53Speaker 4: This is not all shit.
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they don't have that big ring.
- 1:08:57Speaker 4: You know at that party. I've talked to youth about this,
- 1:09:01Speaker 4: and the consensus I hear is and I haven't found
- 1:09:06Speaker 4: anyone that doesn't feel this way yet. It's like, look,
- 1:09:09Speaker 4: if you could, if if you mean, if you could
- 1:09:12Speaker 4: say yes, social media, it exists, or it doesn't. Oh,
- 1:09:15Speaker 4: please just no. I wish it didn't exist, but it does,
- 1:09:19Speaker 4: and I have to be a part of it to
- 1:09:21Speaker 4: feel I don't know the words not relevant to even
- 1:09:24Speaker 4: feel a part of youthful society. But boy, if you
- 1:09:27Speaker 4: gave me a choice, could we have it or not?
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: Please take it away. Wish you were wish it wasn't there,
- 1:09:33Speaker 4: Wish it didn't exist, is what I hear A lot
- 1:09:35Speaker 4: of you say.
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's I think it's done more harm
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: than it's done good. It's done a lot of people
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: good for business, right, A lot of people started businesses
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: with social media, and you know a lot of people
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: make a living now that would have had a regular job.
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: There's a goodness in that. But in terms of like
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: society and our overall discourse, I think it's a lot
- 1:09:56Speaker 2: of it's negative. But then again, there's a lot of
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: positive of it too, because information gets out that mainstream
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: media doesn't report on, and you find out about real
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: issues that really concern you. But then there's the problem
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: of a giant percentage of it isn't actually human beings,
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: giant percentage of the arguing back and forth on the Internet.
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: It's spots giant percent man, Yeah, to some former FBI
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: analyst said it was as many as eighty percent on Twitter. Yeah,
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: that's his estimate. I mean, I don't know if he's right,
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: but I'm like, what what does that even mean?
- 1:10:34Speaker 4: What does that mean?
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: Like, so, what what's fueling all that? It's AI forcing
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: us to argue? I mean it's programmed right now by
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: human beings probably and and some of it is actual
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: real human beings that are, like, you know, in some
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: sort of a factory somewhere in Pakistan or whatever, and
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: they're just fucking with Americans online for whatever reason. Some
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: it's it's probably funded to like try to disrupt democracy,
- 1:10:57Speaker 2: to make.
- 1:10:58Speaker 4: Us lose faith in our ste There's a a China
- 1:11:02Speaker 4: element to that.
- 1:11:03Speaker 2: There's a rush, and there's an American element. We're doing
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: it to them.
- 1:11:08Speaker 4: So that's part of the New World. But that's yes one,
- 1:11:13Speaker 4: Well I understand it with how would add up with TikTok? Yeah,
- 1:11:17Speaker 4: Now do you think it's it's it's everywhere through all
- 1:11:20Speaker 4: the all social media that it's it's infiltrated to to
- 1:11:24Speaker 4: get us into these understandings perceptions.
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: Well, for sure, it is capable of doing that if
- 1:11:31Speaker 2: you just follow your natural instincts. Right. So the algorithm
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: is set up for show you what you engage with
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: the most, and that just whether or not it's the
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: intended purpose, it leads us down the road of being
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: full of anxiety, constantly filled with cortisol, stressed out, angry,
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: angry at climate change and fucking white supremacy and radical left.
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: Whatever it is. It's whether or not it's intentional, it
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: doesn't really matter because the desired effect, whether it's the
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: desired effect, the effect of it all leads you into
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: complete chaos. So if they know that and they didn't
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: course correct, the problem is once you have an algorithm,
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: you're not going to get rid of the algorithm. I'm
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: i gonna say, let's just have information just exist, uncategorized
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: and non documentary. Yeah, just leave it out there and
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: you go find what you want. Matthew. You go look
- 1:12:33Speaker 2: around and you watch you know, football games and boxing matches,
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: and you just go to you you do you you
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: go look. Instead of its suggesting things to you, once
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: it's suggesting things to you, that's a whole different game
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: because then it's kind of programming you and it's programming
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: you based on your worst instincts. My fucking feed is
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: all assassinations and car accidents and dudes getting kicked in
- 1:12:57Speaker 2: the head.
- 1:12:58Speaker 4: It's just the you and do you do you? Do
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: you bite?
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: Not anymore? No, but Tom Sagur and I we have
- 1:13:05Speaker 2: a text threat that's been going on for like, I
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: don't like probably five years. We send each other the
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: most horrible ship we find each days, and sometimes I
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: call up. I'm like, dude, I can't do this anymore.
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: This is like really fucking with me. But then like
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: two days we'll go by and I'll open up my
- 1:13:23Speaker 2: fucking phone and I'll see Tom Sigar like this motherfucker.
- 1:13:27Speaker 2: And then I'll open it up and some guy getting
- 1:13:29Speaker 2: assassinated in a pool hall or something. I'm like, oh
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: my god, it's just you're getting bombarded, bombarded.
- 1:13:38Speaker 4: So with all of that exterior stimulus, and here we
- 1:13:43Speaker 4: are with you know, adult mind and even talking about
- 1:13:49Speaker 4: man Imagine a child. Imagine a child. Yeah, now I'm
- 1:13:52Speaker 4: going is there something has even got a better suggestion
- 1:13:56Speaker 4: than the Ting Commandments for to get a child's mind going.
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: Ten?
- 1:14:01Speaker 4: Just tell those ten things. If I look at that
- 1:14:03Speaker 4: and aim that direction, I feel like I can't go
- 1:14:08Speaker 4: wrong or I can gel closer closer to right, meaning
- 1:14:13Speaker 4: I'm seeing youth and adults spun out. Man, I don't
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: understand the general expectation between us. What do you mean
- 1:14:21Speaker 4: I can pick your pocket and steal from you if
- 1:14:23Speaker 4: I got away with it, I fuck you, dude. I'm
- 1:14:26Speaker 4: not embarrassed. I don't feel guilty. Hey, man, I want
- 1:14:30Speaker 4: a blue ribbon. I got the shoes.
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: Yeah, they gave me the trophy.
- 1:14:35Speaker 4: What do you mean do with the riery fucking old
- 1:14:38Speaker 4: dinosaur integrity?
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: What character?
- 1:14:40Speaker 4: What are you talking about? I hear that conversation, I'm going, ah,
- 1:14:44Speaker 4: hang on man.
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:14:47Speaker 4: And that's different than saying, like you've told me you
- 1:14:50Speaker 4: love chaos. That's different than saying, oh, there's a chaotic moment.
- 1:14:55Speaker 4: I will I love to try and create order in it.
- 1:14:57Speaker 4: That's different. That's like a that's something that's a stimulus.
- 1:15:02Speaker 4: You know, this is it's it's four dimensional. Where's the
- 1:15:05Speaker 4: ground that that they can go? Okay, I can rely
- 1:15:08Speaker 4: on that? What can I rely on that that will
- 1:15:10Speaker 4: stand with me? That's a time and test the truth
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: that can take me into the future. No, out of
- 1:15:14Speaker 4: the changes of Ai that I can go in the storm,
- 1:15:17Speaker 4: I can go to this and catch my breath. I
- 1:15:19Speaker 4: can go to this and rely on it in the dark,
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: on my own and in the masses with the millions
- 1:15:24Speaker 4: going no, no, no, do this, do this, I can go, Uh,
- 1:15:28Speaker 4: what is that? What's that simple sheet that's ingrained that
- 1:15:33Speaker 4: that that our youth can go Yeah, yeah, it can
- 1:15:36Speaker 4: rely on it. Forget the author, forget the author right that.
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna do it with like a
- 1:15:44Speaker 2: series of commandments. The problem with the Ten Commandments. I'm
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: not saying there's a problem with the Ten Commandments, but
- 1:15:50Speaker 2: if I was going to put it in a school
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: that were there's non religious people, there's a bunch of
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: stuff in there, like not taking the Lord's name in vain,
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: not have any other gods before me, where people that
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: would give people pause. They'd be like, wait a minute,
- 1:16:03Speaker 2: what are you telling me? I can't I can't say
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: I can't take the Lord's name in bin like saying God, damn.
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: It is like taking the Lord's name in vain. People
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: do that all the time.
- 1:16:12Speaker 4: It's similar to the on a national level, the flag
- 1:16:15Speaker 4: burning things, burning out. That would be like taking lords
- 1:16:20Speaker 4: Him and Dane. Burning the flag would be like taking
- 1:16:22Speaker 4: the flags name in day right.
- 1:16:23Speaker 2: Imagine that. Imagine you get arrested for taking the lord's
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: name in vain right. That would be a real problem,
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: especially because you're talking about human beings always creep, they
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: always move towards more and more power and control. And
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: if you put something like that, and like, now, what
- 1:16:42Speaker 2: are you gonna do? You're gonna enforce Christian law? What
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: if someone enforces Sharia law? There's a lot of talk
- 1:16:47Speaker 2: of that. There's a lot of talk about people in
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: Minnesota are terrified that someone's gonna enforce Sharia law. And
- 1:16:52Speaker 2: a lot of these Somali Muslim uh these these areas
- 1:16:56Speaker 2: where like giant Muslim populations are what if we get with.
- 1:17:00Speaker 4: What would get What if we get with the Hindus
- 1:17:02Speaker 4: and the Muslims and everybody and we get out. You
- 1:17:05Speaker 4: got bring your best ten Christianity's bringing his ten commandments.
- 1:17:08Speaker 4: Let's get together here and we'll put them all together.
- 1:17:11Speaker 4: Hell will mix some of yours on your My number
- 1:17:13Speaker 4: eight will be number nine, because yours is gonna be
- 1:17:14Speaker 4: number eight, and we're gonna put them up there. It's
- 1:17:16Speaker 4: gonna be a creed, a little bit constitution to get
- 1:17:18Speaker 4: our day started.
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: Interesting way to do it. But the problem is most
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: religions are ideologically opposed to conflicting religions. They don't want
- 1:17:28Speaker 2: to accept that these other religions are correct about anything.
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: You know, like Judaism and Christianity they share a bunch
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: of things, but they disagree on Jesus.
- 1:17:39Speaker 4: They disagree and rising from the dead.
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, there's a lot of stuff.
- 1:17:45Speaker 4: It's well, I just think there could be a creed,
- 1:17:50Speaker 4: a bit of a constitution, and if you pull the
- 1:17:52Speaker 4: author of it, if you can find more similarities then
- 1:17:55Speaker 4: that are not exclusionary. Right then we would find things
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: that are combat of ideas.
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: Yeah, I think something along those lines where we said,
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: let's think of a code to live life buy well,
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: and we can do this in a modern era without
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: a religious context. You could say, like what, we could
- 1:18:13Speaker 2: all agree a code to live life buy but we'd
- 1:18:17Speaker 2: all have to follow it, including the president. No more
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: rage tweeting.
- 1:18:21Speaker 4: I'm just saying we have to We wouldn't have to
- 1:18:24Speaker 4: follow it. It would just be right now, there's not
- 1:18:26Speaker 4: an agreed upon expectation of how to treat each.
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: Other, right, right, right, and there's reward in treating each
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: other like shit. If you're you are.
- 1:18:33Speaker 4: Rewarded for it. Yeah, and almost not almost, maybe more
- 1:18:37Speaker 4: much more than almost if you do follow the rules.
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: Kind of a yeah, you kind of a sucker.
- 1:18:44Speaker 4: That that that out of I'm that that's not going
- 1:18:47Speaker 4: to have a long that can't have a long play.
- 1:18:49Speaker 4: That is not a selfish move.
- 1:18:51Speaker 2: Don't think that's a part of the whole TikTok instagram
- 1:18:54Speaker 2: kind of culture because it's so look at me, it's
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: so fake. Least cars and you know there's a thing
- 1:19:01Speaker 2: in LA where they have a fake private jet and
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: you go into this private jet just for influencers so
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: they can take pictures. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
- 1:19:10Speaker 4: Let me tell you this thing. I'm in Miami. You

- 1:19:44Speaker 4: working on I think it was the Beach Bump, and
- 1:19:47Speaker 4: I'm walking down through South Beach and there's this under
- 1:19:51Speaker 4: a palm tree on the beach. There's this purple and
- 1:19:54Speaker 4: pink Lamborghini pulled in under a palm tree with the
- 1:19:56Speaker 4: beach behind it, and there's this guy leaning back on it.
- 1:20:00Speaker 4: The gold chain. He unbuttoned silk shirt a couple of times,
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: he's greased up, and he's These guys are there taking
- 1:20:05Speaker 4: pictures of it. I'm like, going, what's going on here? Well,
- 1:20:09Speaker 4: if there's another guy, come on stop you see him chat.
- 1:20:11Speaker 4: All of a sudden, the new guy hops in on

- 1:20:17Speaker 4: I go up that. I go, what do you?
- 1:20:18Speaker 2: What are you?

- 1:20:36Speaker 4: that's not your car, nom man, I ran his car
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: for the day. He was he was proud of it.
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: Man.
- 1:20:43Speaker 4: He was like, yeah, it's just what I did South Beach.
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: Yeah. I it's a very low vibration, but they're open
- 1:20:54Speaker 2: about it. Yeah.
- 1:20:55Speaker 4: You know.
- 1:20:55Speaker 2: I always say, if you want to starve to death,
- 1:20:57Speaker 2: open up a bookstore in Miami. It's a lot of fun.
- 1:21:04Speaker 2: It's basically like a well, I mean, it's basically built
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: on cocaine. You know, the city was built on cocaine
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: back in the day. Have you ever seen cocaine Cowboys? Yes? Whoa,
- 1:21:13Speaker 2: yeah what a documentary? Yes, holy shit, that's a good one.
- 1:21:17Speaker 2: That is a good one. And cocaine cowboys too. Both
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: of them were crazy. Oh my god, Oh my god.
- 1:21:25Speaker 2: Gizelda gets out, she goes it's when you find out
- 1:21:28Speaker 2: that it's all one hundred percent true, You're like, so
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: that's what happened with Miami. One year, the entire Miami
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: graduating class of the Police Academy, the entire graduating class
- 1:21:40Speaker 2: either wound up murdered or in jail for corruption. The
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: class they were all drug dealing. Everybody was drug dealing.
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: There's millions and millions of dollars buried in backyards in
- 1:21:52Speaker 2: Miami that no one's ever gonna find.
- 1:21:54Speaker 4: Vedo remember the police chief that was here m m
- 1:21:57Speaker 4: that they went to Houston because he wanted to drama,
- 1:22:00Speaker 4: and Katrina came and he got his real drama. Then
- 1:22:03Speaker 4: he went to Miami and it didn't last. I didn't
- 1:22:06Speaker 4: get the details on it, but wasn't it something about
- 1:22:08Speaker 4: the Miami the I don't know. If there's mafia and
- 1:22:12Speaker 4: city council going there's certain things you cannot Oh, he
- 1:22:17Speaker 4: was either fired, booted out, or retired and moved on
- 1:22:21Speaker 4: pretty soon.
- 1:22:22Speaker 2: Yeah. They don't fuck around down there. It's it's a
- 1:22:25Speaker 2: totally different way of life, and you know, they love it.
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: It's like you go down there, it's it's a totally
- 1:22:33Speaker 2: different vibe. Yeah, you know, and.
- 1:22:36Speaker 4: If you don't more dots and you don't flinch. Yeah,
- 1:22:40Speaker 4: it's all a green light.
- 1:22:41Speaker 2: More banks per capita in Miami, I think than any
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: other city in the country, and I think that is
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: because it was used to launder money for yes, Yeah,
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: so it's it's hard to believe that that's true. But
- 1:22:54Speaker 2: I had a good buddy of mine who was an
- 1:22:55Speaker 2: optimologist who did his residency down there. But next month misconduct.
- 1:23:02Speaker 4: The internal affairs unit.
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: Making significant changes to his command staff. Boom, you're out,
- 1:23:07Speaker 2: see yuh ye speaking out against corruption, reporting abuses of
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: power by elected officials. He sued, saying that his firing
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: was in retaliation. Yeah. So my buddy was optimologist and
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: into his residency in Miami in the eighties, and he
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: said it was insane. He goes every day, so he's
- 1:23:27Speaker 2: in the emergency room every day. It's gunshot victims, guys
- 1:23:32Speaker 2: with g I Joe stuffed up their asses, like everybody
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: was just doing coke and doing wild crazy stuff. He
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: said he found guys with light bulbs up their asses.
- 1:23:44Speaker 2: They had to remove light bulbs. You know those little
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: pine coney ones, you know those ones. Dude had a
- 1:23:51Speaker 2: light bulb broke in his asshole and they had a
- 1:23:54Speaker 2: oh God. And he goes, it's all cocaine. Man. He goes,
- 1:23:58Speaker 2: I saw so many gunshots, so many gunshot wounds. He goes,
- 1:24:03Speaker 2: it was all cocaine. And it was just constant in
- 1:24:06Speaker 2: the eighties. He said, the emergency room is just like
- 1:24:08Speaker 2: people were pilot up in the hallway. They're just rushing
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: people in to get treatment. They're holding their side, blood
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: squirting out of them. He said it was insanity, just cocaine,
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: gang wars all over the city and he was in
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: the heart of it.
- 1:24:24Speaker 4: Is he still an optometrist, Well.
- 1:24:26Speaker 2: He's still an ophthalmologist. Yeah, yeah, he's uh, but he
- 1:24:30Speaker 2: doesn't live in Miami anymore. He's in Arizona now. Shout
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: out to Steve. It's good bunny money, am I. He
- 1:24:37Speaker 2: told me some why And I was a kid at
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: the time, and when I met him, I was like fifteen,
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: sixteen years old, and he was explaining to me, like
- 1:24:46Speaker 2: what he did when he was in Miami, and I
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: was like, that is insane. I go, it's that bad
- 1:24:51Speaker 2: because this is like nineteen eighty eight he was there
- 1:24:54Speaker 2: or in the early eighties. He said it was insane.
- 1:24:58Speaker 2: Just that's Miami, you know, and whatever is it was
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: obviously not like that anymore. It's obviously calmed down on
- 1:25:05Speaker 2: that regard, but.
- 1:25:06Speaker 4: Miss the chassis is still pretty loose.
- 1:25:08Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's what's built the place. You know. It's
- 1:25:12Speaker 2: like the most flossy city in the country, the most
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: Lamborghinis and Ferraris and whatever.
- 1:25:17Speaker 4: I don't think most of them are owned.
- 1:25:19Speaker 2: No, No, it's a giant hustle. It's a big old
- 1:25:22Speaker 2: cocaine hustle.
- 1:25:24Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: But that's one of the things I love about America
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: is that we have all these different flavors. We got
- 1:25:30Speaker 2: the Florida flavor and then went out to Montana flavor.
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot of different flavors in this country.
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: I was.
- 1:25:37Speaker 4: I was in Alabama doing research for pre state ad
- 1:25:42Speaker 4: joned and this is what I think probably eleven years ago,
- 1:25:46Speaker 4: and we were staying a mobile and the next day
- 1:25:51Speaker 4: there was all these parades that night and what's going
- 1:25:53Speaker 4: on the next the next day that the percentage for
- 1:25:56Speaker 4: the vote for gay marriage was coming out.
- 1:25:59Speaker 2: M And.
- 1:26:02Speaker 4: I remember talking to a lot of my friends on
- 1:26:05Speaker 4: the West coast the next day because what happened. It
- 1:26:09Speaker 4: woke up it passed fifty three forty seven and I
- 1:26:12Speaker 4: was like, holy shit, I thought it was gonna be
- 1:26:15Speaker 4: twenty eighty.
- 1:26:16Speaker 2: No, oh, interesting, it was passed fifty three forty seven.
- 1:26:20Speaker 2: What year was that?
- 1:26:21Speaker 4: This is eleven twelve years ago, Maybe you can pull
- 1:26:23Speaker 4: it up. I think it was about eleven years ago. Anyway,
- 1:26:26Speaker 4: I talked to a lot of my friends who are
- 1:26:29Speaker 4: our uh Democrats, are liberal, and they were appalled at the.
- 1:26:37Speaker 2: Minor.
- 1:26:37Speaker 4: Martin was like, guys, no, I thought it was you
- 1:26:41Speaker 4: were appalled that barely made it. I thought it was
- 1:26:42Speaker 4: gonna be twenty eighty. The other way, it's it is
- 1:26:46Speaker 4: amazing how quickly though America were very nimble, Yeah, very
- 1:26:51Speaker 4: nimble to shipping and understand Yeah, different ways. I was
- 1:26:56Speaker 4: shocked that it even came close, that it didn't.
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: He thought it was going to be really thought it
- 1:27:00Speaker 2: was going to be eighty twenty against.
- 1:27:01Speaker 4: I thought that my romantic idea or she'd have traveled.
- 1:27:06Speaker 4: They have been around there and stay there many times,
- 1:27:08Speaker 4: got friends there. I thought that it was so entrenched
- 1:27:11Speaker 4: in a born again read Christianity that that was blasphemy
- 1:27:18Speaker 4: to the majority, And it was not. It was not.
- 1:27:25Speaker 4: And I just remember thinking, there's an example, not an ideal,
- 1:27:29Speaker 4: but there's if you were for gay marriage, that's not
- 1:27:31Speaker 4: an ideal example, but there's an example of talk about
- 1:27:34Speaker 4: an evolution or adaptability to two times and change.
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: Well, if you believe in the sanctity of marriage, gay
- 1:27:41Speaker 2: marriage should be your favorite marriage because they hold it
- 1:27:43Speaker 2: up the best. They have the lowest rates of divorce, right.
- 1:27:47Speaker 2: I think gay marriage between two men the rated divorce
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: is only like twenty six percent, whereas with men and
- 1:27:53Speaker 2: women it's fifty percent. Yeah, so if you really love marriage, hey, yeah, right,
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: you should love gay marriage because they're doing it right.
- 1:28:01Speaker 4: What do you think about that? When I talk about
- 1:28:03Speaker 4: you know, because we're always we're always talking and thinking
- 1:28:06Speaker 4: about so you know, hey, you make ald a better place,
- 1:28:09Speaker 4: talk about leadership, talk about our CEOs, you talk about politicians.
- 1:28:14Speaker 4: But if you go back to the route, the beginning
- 1:28:18Speaker 4: seems to be to me to be parenting.
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 1:28:21Speaker 4: Secondly, what if what could be done to get more
- 1:28:29Speaker 4: fathers just hang stay around, get more more mothers do
- 1:28:32Speaker 4: than the fathers. A lot of fathers are out early.
- 1:28:35Speaker 4: And what could be done if more marriages, if we
- 1:28:39Speaker 4: work took another step to salvage our marriage instead of ah,
- 1:28:44Speaker 4: smell the heat getting out.
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot could that? Do you know?
- 1:28:48Speaker 4: Do you think that would be a way forward? I
- 1:28:51Speaker 4: have a hunch that it is. I don't know what
- 1:28:53Speaker 4: to do about it except prop up the reverence for parents,
- 1:28:59Speaker 4: the prop up reverence for marriage to where it's more
- 1:29:04Speaker 4: important to us than it is.
- 1:29:07Speaker 2: Yeah, to stick with it.
- 1:29:09Speaker 4: A little longer, to salvage that our personal character, our
- 1:29:13Speaker 4: responsibilities or to take as a parent, and our responsibility
- 1:29:17Speaker 4: that we take, and going into a marriage whould make
- 1:29:19Speaker 4: it mean a little bit more than I feel like
- 1:29:21Speaker 4: it does to us.
- 1:29:23Speaker 2: A lot of times, I think it really depends entirely
- 1:29:27Speaker 2: on who the individuals are, because sometimes one person is
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: just not keeping up their end of the deal. They
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: just fall off. Maybe they get into drugs, they they
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: become addicted. They maybe they lose their job and they
- 1:29:43Speaker 2: don't want to get it back and they just start
- 1:29:45Speaker 2: drinking every day. And like sometimes a man or a
- 1:29:48Speaker 2: woman has to make a choice.
- 1:29:49Speaker 4: And marriage good divorces too, that's good for the both.
- 1:29:54Speaker 2: There's some people that don't want to change and they
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: will drag you down. And there's some people when you
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: met them, they had hope, and then eventually that hope
- 1:30:02Speaker 2: just fucking leeches out of them and they're not fun
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: to be around anymore. And you try, and you try,
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: and you try to encourage them, you try to give
- 1:30:09Speaker 2: them suggestions and they don't follow through, and at at
- 1:30:12Speaker 2: a certain point in time, you can't save a drowning
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: man because you're gonna fucking drown too, and you got
- 1:30:17Speaker 2: to just move on with your life. And I get it.
- 1:30:19Speaker 2: I get when wives leave like that, I get when
- 1:30:22Speaker 2: husbands leave like that. But a lot of people just
- 1:30:25Speaker 2: marry people because they're hot, you know, they marry people
- 1:30:28Speaker 2: because they're sexy, they like having sex with them, you know,
- 1:30:31Speaker 2: they think they're attractive. And then you're with some fucking
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: crazy person and you're trying to make life work with
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: a crazy person, and now you have kids, and now
- 1:30:38Speaker 2: you're trying to make life with kids with this fucking
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: crazy person that you really shouldn't have married in the
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: first place. You didn't have anything in common with them
- 1:30:45Speaker 2: other than you like their body and you liked how
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: sexy they are. That's the trap, like you gotta it's
- 1:30:52Speaker 2: a you have to like genuinely love someone, like love
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: their personality, love being around, love their kindness, and then
- 1:31:01Speaker 2: you have to be someone that other people would love.
- 1:31:04Speaker 2: A lot of people want this perfect person in a
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: life and they're a mess.
- 1:31:09Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there's a lot I've seen that go down to.
- 1:31:12Speaker 2: There's a lot of reasons why marriages don't work out
- 1:31:15Speaker 2: and one of them is like over time, when two
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: boats are traveling together, of one of them, just like
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: this is an Anthony Robbins thing about life and an
- 1:31:23Speaker 2: analogy about life, but it actually works with marriages too,
- 1:31:27Speaker 2: because all you need is like a subtle turn in
- 1:31:30Speaker 2: one direction, and over time you're further and further apart.
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: Where like we don't have the same philosophy anymore, we
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: don't have the same belief system, we don't have the
- 1:31:40Speaker 2: same ethics or morals. Or you know, maybe your husband
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: has got a job that you're like, you shouldn't be
- 1:31:46Speaker 2: fucking doing this. This is bad for society. Like your
- 1:31:49Speaker 2: job overall is awful. You're maybe you're denying people health
- 1:31:53Speaker 2: care claims, you know, for insurance companies. Maybe that's your thing,
- 1:31:57Speaker 2: and like and you're like, you're we have to live
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: with a site take weight of like yeah, we're eating
- 1:32:01Speaker 2: Ribbi's and we have a nice house, but like how
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: did we get this money? Like and maybe the wife
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: is like, I don't want to do this anymore. I
- 1:32:08Speaker 2: want to be connected to you. That's that's understandable too.
- 1:32:12Speaker 2: It's like not all marriages are supposed to work out.
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: I agree with you. I think it makes it divorce
- 1:32:18Speaker 4: right now? Yes, what if that was forty five?
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: Well, Chris Rock had a great joke about that. He goes,
- 1:32:23Speaker 2: that's just the cowards that stay. It's like, how many
- 1:32:29Speaker 2: of them wish they were divorced. It's a really good point,
- 1:32:36Speaker 2: really good point, because.
- 1:32:38Speaker 4: How cowards paying the pennance?
- 1:32:42Speaker 2: Oh bad? I mean we all have friends like that.
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: We're like, bro get out and they don't. And then
- 1:32:48Speaker 2: but then we also have people that have great marriages.
- 1:32:51Speaker 2: And when you meet people that have great marriages, it's like, oh,
- 1:32:53Speaker 2: that's possible, you know, that's possible.
- 1:32:56Speaker 4: Well, the sanctity of it, if it had more reverenge
- 1:32:59Speaker 4: going in to you're not getting she's hot.
- 1:33:03Speaker 2: We love, we love. It's a cultural milestone too. It's
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: like a thing you're doing it because it's like everybody
- 1:33:08Speaker 2: does that. Every woman wants to be married, every you
- 1:33:11Speaker 2: want to have a family, every man wants to you know,
- 1:33:13Speaker 2: like this is my wife. And and so you think
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: that a lot of people live life like they're in
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: a goddamn romantic comedy. They think they're in a movie,
- 1:33:21Speaker 2: you know, they think they're and they don't. They don't.
- 1:33:24Speaker 2: It's like that there's something about media, something about songs
- 1:33:28Speaker 2: and movies. It gives us this like bizarre framework for
- 1:33:32Speaker 2: what a relationship or what life is supposed to be like,
- 1:33:35Speaker 2: or what your life is supposed to be like, and
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: it's not real and where your life doesn't measure up
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: to this movie, just like your life is not going
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: to measure up to your Instagram feed. You get kind
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: of kind of depressed, like this said.
- 1:33:50Speaker 4: Why why are we in Gabston for our honeymoon? When
- 1:33:54Speaker 4: she's on a yacht, she's you know what I mean
- 1:33:57Speaker 4: exactly comparison thing comes Well.
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: That's also why people put everything on the gram too.
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: They put everything they do. Look at me here having
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: so much fun. Look at me smiling, having a great time.
- 1:34:10Speaker 4: Man, Well, you paint yourself in a corner. LEVI get
- 1:34:14Speaker 4: on Gram when he turned fifteen, and he I don't
- 1:34:17Speaker 4: know if you'll stay on it, but that was one
- 1:34:19Speaker 4: of the things we were talking. I was like, dude,
- 1:34:21Speaker 4: you know he's surfing at the time. I was like,
- 1:34:23Speaker 4: don't just put all your all your best waves on there,
- 1:34:25Speaker 4: because you're gonna paint yourself on a corner when you
- 1:34:27Speaker 4: go to the break and you guys like, oh, we've
- 1:34:29Speaker 4: seen it. I better put some wipeouts on there too,
- 1:34:32Speaker 4: just so you can go and not have that pressure
- 1:34:34Speaker 4: because you're gonna paint yourself in a corner. Life looks
- 1:34:36Speaker 4: too good. Yeah, you know what I mean, And you're
- 1:34:39Speaker 4: gonna go out and you got I gotta live up
- 1:34:40Speaker 4: to this. It's that thing that happens in those relationships
- 1:34:43Speaker 4: when you hold the other one. If if if I
- 1:34:46Speaker 4: make my wife superwoman and she thinks I'm superman, neither
- 1:34:49Speaker 4: one of us can live up to that, And so
- 1:34:51Speaker 4: we're gonna come in under the r expected bar and
- 1:34:54Speaker 4: there becomes the recipe for You're not who I thought
- 1:34:57Speaker 4: you were because we had an unfair expectation right going in.
- 1:35:02Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean that definitely happens too. Also, familiarity
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: breeds contempt. People just get tired of be in the
- 1:35:11Speaker 2: same space with the same person over and over. I'm like, stop,
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: leave me alone, get away. I feel gets sick of people.
- 1:35:19Speaker 2: But it's also like who did you pick? Who'd you pick?
- 1:35:23Speaker 2: And why'd they pick you? Are you someone that you
- 1:35:26Speaker 2: would pick if you were a woman? You know, would
- 1:35:29Speaker 2: you want you as a husband, would you want you
- 1:35:32Speaker 2: as a friend? Would you know? And if not. Maybe
- 1:35:35Speaker 2: you should, maybe should become someone someone would like to
- 1:35:39Speaker 2: be friends with. Maybe should become someone someone would like
- 1:35:42Speaker 2: to be a husband I'd like to have as a husband.
- 1:35:44Speaker 4: Sit in that passenger seat you're talking about yourself.
- 1:35:48Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why a good psychedelic experience every now and
- 1:35:51Speaker 2: then knocks the dust off and gives you a little
- 1:35:53Speaker 2: reset and lets you look at yourself and go, okay, all.
- 1:35:56Speaker 4: Right, tell me explain to me what that? What that does?
- 1:36:01Speaker 4: It unpacks some some some somewhat some some sort of
- 1:36:04Speaker 4: neural cables that have gotten kind of solidified that may work. Sure,
- 1:36:08Speaker 4: they become doctrinaire.
- 1:36:09Speaker 2: There's a lot of that in that, for sure. And
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: I think that's also a dissolving of the ego. That's
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: a big part of it. One of the things that
- 1:36:15Speaker 2: most psychedelic drugs have in common is they dissolve the ego,
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: like completely dissolve the ego at least for a brief
- 1:36:22Speaker 2: amount of time. And during that brief amount of time
- 1:36:25Speaker 2: you have a much more objective understanding of That's why
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: there's so many people who take mushrooms and then completely
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: quit smoking cigarettes or completely quit taking pills. They just go,
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: oh my god, like what was I doing? Like why
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: was I doing that? Like you just you need to
- 1:36:40Speaker 2: get outside of yourself. And I think that that was
- 1:36:43Speaker 2: a natural part of human civilization for thousands and thousands
- 1:36:46Speaker 2: of years. People did it in ritualistic settings in ancient
- 1:36:50Speaker 2: Ulysses in Greece. The Elucinian Mysteries was all about that
- 1:36:55Speaker 2: and eleusis when they would they would all get together.
- 1:36:59Speaker 2: They would take this to get There's a fantastic book
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: on it called The Immortality Key that a guy who's
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: been a guest on my podcast a bunch of times,
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: Brian Murr Rescue, wrote, But it's all about these are
- 1:37:08Speaker 2: the people that figured out democracy. This is like in
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: ancient Greece, and they all did it from having these
- 1:37:14Speaker 2: psychedelic trips. They would all go and have this trek
- 1:37:18Speaker 2: to have this visionary experience and they'd come back with
- 1:37:21Speaker 2: new insight and ideas and it dissolving in the ego.
- 1:37:24Speaker 2: I mean they literally came to the idea like, hey,
- 1:37:26Speaker 2: maybe we should let everybody have a say in how
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: things run and vote, Like they invented democracy, which is crazy.
- 1:37:33Speaker 2: And they did it because probably because of psychedelic drugs,
- 1:37:38Speaker 2: Like they found these clay pots that these people used
- 1:37:42Speaker 2: to keep their wine in, and their wine was all
- 1:37:46Speaker 2: like mixed up with psychedelics. It wasn't regular wine like
- 1:37:49Speaker 2: we think of wine as being an alcoholic beverage. No,
- 1:37:52Speaker 2: was wine with ergot in it. So there was like
- 1:37:55Speaker 2: an LSD Lix substance and a bunch of other stuff.
- 1:37:58Speaker 4: Like here's seen the Dumbo the animated Yeah, sure, okay,
- 1:38:03Speaker 4: I just noticed it because I noticed it, just saw
- 1:38:05Speaker 4: it for the seen it before, recently saw it three
- 1:38:08Speaker 4: years ago. So Dumbo after the circus goes over, puts
- 1:38:13Speaker 4: his snout down and drinks the runoff from the bar
- 1:38:16Speaker 4: and the party. Okay, stars start to think. The next
- 1:38:20Speaker 4: thing next edit is he's in the top of a tree.
- 1:38:26Speaker 4: He can fly. That was more than alcohol. The cut
- 1:38:32Speaker 4: is directly to him on the top of a tree.
- 1:38:34Speaker 2: That's hilarious. God, I haven't seen Dumbo since my kids
- 1:38:37Speaker 2: are like one.
- 1:38:39Speaker 4: If you see it, if you see it again, I
- 1:38:41Speaker 4: need to catch it.
- 1:38:43Speaker 2: I haven't seen it for I'm God, I don't even know.
- 1:38:45Speaker 4: If the crows they're talking about him about how he
- 1:38:48Speaker 4: got up here? And what are you doing up here? Man?
- 1:38:50Speaker 4: You should have seen yourself last night talk about it.
- 1:38:52Speaker 4: I don't remember, but I was there. Dumbo didn't remember
- 1:38:54Speaker 4: none of it. Man, but he's ended up on the top.
- 1:38:57Speaker 2: I remember when they were real little Pinocchio and how
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: creepy it was. I was like, oh my god, Pinocchio
- 1:39:04Speaker 2: is creepy. When they when the the the boys got
- 1:39:08Speaker 2: kidnapped and they turned him into donkeys. Yeah remember that part? Yes,
- 1:39:12Speaker 2: that was Pinocchio. Right, here's the part.
- 1:39:15Speaker 5: He has a five minute trip in Dumbo.
- 1:39:17Speaker 2: Let's see.
- 1:39:18Speaker 5: I mean, it's a whole scene the pink elephants.
- 1:39:21Speaker 4: Oh whoa. After he drank that, he drank. He's on
- 1:39:29Speaker 4: tripping and the last we saw was he just drinks
- 1:39:32Speaker 4: on that like.
- 1:39:33Speaker 2: Wow, pyramids it ends here? Oh wow? And so I'm
- 1:39:41Speaker 2: coming back to earth.
- 1:39:42Speaker 4: Oh wait, no, he's on He's not back to earth.
- 1:39:50Speaker 2: That's crazy. I would have never guessed. I would have
- 1:39:53Speaker 2: never guessed. That's a part. But that's actually a part
- 1:39:56Speaker 2: of one of the rides at Disneyland. Is that is
- 1:40:00Speaker 2: there a Dumbo ride at Disneyland that looks psychedelic? Yes,
- 1:40:05Speaker 2: that's right. No, it's Winnie the Pooh. There's a Winnie
- 1:40:09Speaker 2: the Pooh ride at Disneyland that I used to take
- 1:40:11Speaker 2: with my kids. And you go through the ride, it's
- 1:40:13Speaker 2: like a real simple ride. It's not like scary at all.
- 1:40:15Speaker 2: It's like good for like little kids. And you get
- 1:40:18Speaker 2: to this one point, I'm like, what are they trying
- 1:40:19Speaker 2: to say here? Like this is crazy? Like Tigger comes
- 1:40:22Speaker 2: out and Tigger is like this psychedelic being and everything
- 1:40:25Speaker 2: is like now in black light. Yeah, so Tigger comes
- 1:40:31Speaker 2: out and tiggers like a freak, Like why is this
- 1:40:33Speaker 2: guy bouncing around on his tail? And then it gets
- 1:40:35Speaker 2: to a certain part get a little forward here where
- 1:40:38Speaker 2: it gets super fucking weird, like right here, like what
- 1:40:43Speaker 2: the hell has happened? It's all about honey, Like things
- 1:40:46Speaker 2: are like this is like fractal, this is like a
- 1:40:49Speaker 2: DMT world. This is really weird. Like what does this
- 1:40:53Speaker 2: have to do with Winnie the Pooh? What the fuck happened?
- 1:40:56Speaker 2: It's really weird. It's like, what are they trying to
- 1:41:02Speaker 2: say here?
- 1:41:04Speaker 4: I didn't see anything about honey.
- 1:41:05Speaker 2: Yeah, there's something about the honey. It's like something about well,
- 1:41:08Speaker 2: you know, there's some stuff called mad Honey, and this
- 1:41:11Speaker 2: mad Honey we actually ate it on the podcast once
- 1:41:13Speaker 2: some guy brought it. But it's a honey that these
- 1:41:18Speaker 2: I think it's in the Himalayas. That's where it is,
- 1:41:21Speaker 2: right where these guys have to climb up the side
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: of a cliff to get this stuff. And these bees
- 1:41:27Speaker 2: are all taking pollen from is it the lotus flower?
- 1:41:33Speaker 2: What is the psychedelic plant? So these these bees are
- 1:41:38Speaker 2: taking pollen from this psychedelic plant and they're making a
- 1:41:41Speaker 2: psychedelic honey. This is so bad. Honey is a honey
- 1:41:45Speaker 2: that contains boys, say that word g toxins. The dark
- 1:41:51Speaker 2: reddish honey is produced from the nectar and pollen of
- 1:41:53Speaker 2: the genus Rotodaredron. How do you say that? Roto rhododendron.
- 1:41:59Speaker 2: It has moderately toxic and narcotic effects, produced principally in
- 1:42:03Speaker 2: Nepal and Turkey where he's uses both a traditional medicine
- 1:42:07Speaker 2: and a recreational drug. But see showing how they get it,
- 1:42:10Speaker 2: because these guys look at that they have to climb
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: on the side of a fucking cliff to get this stuff,
- 1:42:16Speaker 2: and people get it just a trip out.
- 1:42:17Speaker 4: Wow, you tried that.
- 1:42:20Speaker 2: Hard to get honey. Then you make like a rope
- 1:42:23Speaker 2: ladder and you cover yourself in a beekeeper's outfit and
- 1:42:26Speaker 2: they're They're all like these these hives are all connected
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: to the side of a cliff. It's really crazy.
- 1:42:33Speaker 4: It's cool.
- 1:42:34Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a very bizarre effect to the honeyts
- 1:42:40Speaker 2: have somewhere.
- 1:42:40Speaker 4: Yeah, so during the three hours after having well.
- 1:42:44Speaker 2: I was it was in the middle of the podcast.
- 1:42:46Speaker 2: I took it at the beginning of the podcast. I
- 1:42:47Speaker 2: just took a big I go, how much is a
- 1:42:49Speaker 2: large dose? And he's like, you take like a half
- 1:42:51Speaker 2: a teaspoon? Fuck it. And I just took a whole
- 1:42:53Speaker 2: big teaspoon of it. And I was like, whoa, this
- 1:42:56Speaker 2: is interesting.
- 1:42:57Speaker 4: How soon did you get interesting?
- 1:42:59Speaker 2: Twenty minutes? Yea, yeah, about twenty minutes and I'm like,
- 1:43:01Speaker 2: whoh okay, this is a new one. I was like,
- 1:43:04Speaker 2: this is crazy, this is honey put this in your tee, Like,
- 1:43:08Speaker 2: what's going on in the pall. I don't think it's
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: a normal use thing. I think it's an occasional use thing.
- 1:43:14Speaker 4: Well maybe not a full tablespoon.
- 1:43:17Speaker 2: It didn't It wasn't that bad. It wasn't like I
- 1:43:20Speaker 2: was out of my head and didn't know what to do.
- 1:43:21Speaker 2: It was completely functional. But it was like bizarre that
- 1:43:25Speaker 2: this isn't honey.
- 1:43:26Speaker 4: So these these psychedelic trips when you lose the ego
- 1:43:30Speaker 4: and you unlock some of the you know.
- 1:43:35Speaker 2: Just like you got a vacation to reset your life,
- 1:43:38Speaker 2: sometimes you need a vacation to reset your brain.
- 1:43:40Speaker 4: Do they help you have more energy because you're hanging
- 1:43:44Speaker 4: on to old shore ideas a little bit less and
- 1:43:48Speaker 4: you have more of an open beginner's mind and the
- 1:43:51Speaker 4: day unravels with that with less certain concrete expectations or
- 1:43:57Speaker 4: yeah this is how that should go.
- 1:43:59Speaker 2: Or very insightful. Yeah, you're right, Yeah, definitely, that's part
- 1:44:02Speaker 2: of it. Like the less you hang onto in your head,
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: the more energy you have for other stuff. Yeah, Like
- 1:44:11Speaker 2: I always tell people, like especially young comics like that
- 1:44:14Speaker 2: are like getting on social media and arguing with people
- 1:44:17Speaker 2: and stuff. I'm like, look, man, think of your time
- 1:44:19Speaker 2: in your day as a numerical unit. Like you have
- 1:44:22Speaker 2: one hundred units of time, one hundred units of energy.
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: If you're putting thirty of those units on some bullshit online,
- 1:44:30Speaker 2: you're robbing yourself of that time that you could be
- 1:44:34Speaker 2: putting into things you love, your friendship, your comedy act,
- 1:44:38Speaker 2: your life. You don't need to do that, Like it's
- 1:44:41Speaker 2: a trap, Like you get sucked into thinking you need
- 1:44:44Speaker 2: to do that, and all it does is it just
- 1:44:46Speaker 2: robs you of your energy. The less you're attached to
- 1:44:50Speaker 2: like old beefs and squat fuck that guy, although those
- 1:44:54Speaker 2: kind of things, the less you're attached to that stuff,
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: the freer you are, the more energy you have. It's
- 1:45:00Speaker 2: good for you. It's again, it's a selfish interesting to do,
- 1:45:02Speaker 2: selfish to be kind Yep, yeah, amen on that. Yeah,
- 1:45:07Speaker 2: And I think if if those things were legal and
- 1:45:10Speaker 2: more people could experience them in a controlled setting with
- 1:45:14Speaker 2: people who know how to administer them and know the
- 1:45:16Speaker 2: right dose and and know you know, hey, what are
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: you on a medication? Well, if you're on a certain medication,
- 1:45:23Speaker 2: definitely don't be taking this stuff because with your medications,
- 1:45:27Speaker 2: at moa inhibitter, and this is you know, this could
- 1:45:29Speaker 2: really fuck you up. But you know, it doesn't even
- 1:45:36Speaker 2: have to be that. Man, It could be a fucking
- 1:45:37Speaker 2: good yoga class, right. It could be holotropic breathing. You
- 1:45:41Speaker 2: could just sit and breathe deeply in through your nose
- 1:45:44Speaker 2: and out through your mouth with intention, and you'll have
- 1:45:47Speaker 2: a psychedelic experience. You'll get a relief from.
- 1:45:51Speaker 4: I just got one the other day from acupuncture. Did
- 1:45:54Speaker 4: not expect it at all. And I mean I came
- 1:45:56Speaker 4: out going, oh my gosh. I just felt like I'd
- 1:45:58Speaker 4: be hibernated for a fourteen hours an app and woke
- 1:46:00Speaker 4: up clean as whistle.
- 1:46:02Speaker 2: I've only done acupuncture one time, and the dude was
- 1:46:04Speaker 2: a total kook. He was so kooky that I just
- 1:46:08Speaker 2: I didn't didn't get it was too weird. The guy
- 1:46:12Speaker 2: was so weird. He was really good at acupuncture, but
- 1:46:15Speaker 2: he was just like it was a really weird guy
- 1:46:16Speaker 2: in l A. And he'd have these conversations with you.
- 1:46:18Speaker 2: He's asking a bunch of questions and I was like, okay,
- 1:46:21Speaker 2: I gotta go.
- 1:46:22Speaker 4: That's the that's the that's the masseuse that when he
- 1:46:27Speaker 4: lay down, there goes that's what's your horse cope? And
- 1:46:30Speaker 4: I'm like, oh shit, oh no, the go and I
- 1:46:32Speaker 4: got any injuries and I'm like, yeah, this left shoulder,
- 1:46:36Speaker 4: that mmmm, left side.
- 1:46:37Speaker 2: Of your body.
- 1:46:38Speaker 4: That means you need to get in test Like no, no, no, no,
- 1:46:40Speaker 4: I actually got hit by a car. I only don't
- 1:46:43Speaker 4: go psychological imbi just yet. Man, come on and go
- 1:46:46Speaker 4: horsecope out of the gate. If we were to add
- 1:46:49Speaker 4: that on for some color commentary afterwards. I'm okay with it,
- 1:46:52Speaker 4: but let's not come out of the gate saying this
- 1:46:54Speaker 4: is the reason.
- 1:46:55Speaker 2: I actually just reached out to my book and got
- 1:46:57Speaker 2: to try to get a real astrologer on, someone who
- 1:47:00Speaker 2: really understands the ancient art of astrology, the real old stuff,
- 1:47:04Speaker 2: because I'm not completely discounting it. I think newspaper horoscope
- 1:47:09Speaker 2: is nonsense. I think there's a lot of people that
- 1:47:11Speaker 2: are just like reading your tarot cards that are just
- 1:47:14Speaker 2: ripping you off. But I always wonder at the astrology
- 1:47:20Speaker 2: is so specific, like why did they write that down?
- 1:47:23Speaker 2: Why did they have this understanding of how the stars
- 1:47:26Speaker 2: are aligned at the time of your birth?
- 1:47:28Speaker 4: Pre mathematics?
- 1:47:29Speaker 2: Yeah, where part of the Earth you're at? Yeah, I see.
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: I don't even know if it's pre mathematics. I think
- 1:47:35Speaker 2: it's pre our current understanding of when mathematics evolved and emerged.
- 1:47:41Speaker 2: I don't think that's real. I think they had mathematics
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: long before that. I think civilization was wiped out and
- 1:47:48Speaker 2: had to restart over again, and there's a lot of
- 1:47:50Speaker 2: evidence to that. There's a lot of evidence that, like
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: society has had some major cosmic event, most likely asteroid
- 1:47:59Speaker 2: impact impact, and there's a whole theory behind it, the
- 1:48:04Speaker 2: Younger Driest impact theory from eleven eight hundred years ago.
- 1:48:08Speaker 2: They think we got hit and it's there's a comet
- 1:48:12Speaker 2: storm that we go through every September. Was it November
- 1:48:16Speaker 2: and June? Is that what it is? Something like that,
- 1:48:21Speaker 2: like June and November, and occasionally we get hit. And
- 1:48:26Speaker 2: you know, there's like nine hundred thousand near Earth objects
- 1:48:31Speaker 2: and it doesn't take a really big one to fuck
- 1:48:34Speaker 2: up everything. It doesn't take one that's going to kill
- 1:48:37Speaker 2: everybody to fuck up anything. It just takes one the
- 1:48:39Speaker 2: size of a block, like one city block, comes slamming
- 1:48:43Speaker 2: into the ice caps, and then you just got chaos
- 1:48:47Speaker 2: and everything goes away, and all all like modern conveniences
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: and all organized societies thrown into chaos and then people
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: have to rebuild. And I think that's happened a bunch
- 1:48:59Speaker 2: of times in human history. And this is real physical
- 1:49:02Speaker 2: evidence to this Younger Driest impact theory, which also coincides
- 1:49:05Speaker 2: with the ending of the Ice Age. It's all around
- 1:49:08Speaker 2: the same time, and they think it was like a
- 1:49:10Speaker 2: series of events. They think we were hit more than once.
- 1:49:13Speaker 2: They think they were hit around eleven eight hundred years ago.
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: But then again something we're around ten thousand years ago,
- 1:49:19Speaker 2: so it's probably when we see society emerging in like
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: Mesopotamia and Sumer, which is like around five thousand plus
- 1:49:27Speaker 2: six thousand years ago. I think that's just the newest
- 1:49:30Speaker 2: version of it. I think they probably had mathematics long
- 1:49:34Speaker 2: before that. They probably were doing shit. Whoever built the pyramids, Like,
- 1:49:39Speaker 2: you can't tell me they didn't have some sort of
- 1:49:41Speaker 2: complex geometry in mathematics. There's no way they didn't. The
- 1:49:45Speaker 2: things are pointed to true north, south, east, and west,
- 1:49:48Speaker 2: like that's five thousand years ago.
- 1:49:51Speaker 4: Carl Sagan I got to sit with him for a
- 1:49:54Speaker 4: few hours before we made this film called Contact that.
- 1:49:58Speaker 2: Skin loved it, you do one of my favorite movies.
- 1:50:02Speaker 2: I love that movie. Oh and I love Carl Sagan.
- 1:50:04Speaker 2: Yeah he wrote the book. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:50:07Speaker 4: I got to talk to him and listen to him
- 1:50:09Speaker 4: actually for a few hours. Anyway, I got to know
- 1:50:11Speaker 4: his wife, and his wife's really cool. But her her hello,
- 1:50:16Speaker 4: her greeting is always, hey, what's your coordinate? WHOA, what's
- 1:50:24Speaker 4: your coordinate?
- 1:50:24Speaker 2: What's your coordinate? Boys? She's out there.
- 1:50:28Speaker 4: But I mean that was similar of the r southeast.
- 1:50:31Speaker 4: Which where are we coordinated? Where's the Earth coordinated in
- 1:50:35Speaker 4: the galaxy, in the universe, in the hands of time?
- 1:50:37Speaker 4: What has happened? What's our coordinate? It's a it is
- 1:50:40Speaker 4: kind of an out there, but it's a it's a
- 1:50:42Speaker 4: it's a pretty cool objective, A way to go. Let
- 1:50:44Speaker 4: me think about that. It reminds me of you. Like
- 1:50:47Speaker 4: you ever meet Bush forty one?
- 1:50:50Speaker 2: No, Hi, President Bush?
- 1:50:54Speaker 4: How you doing today? We he's holding your hand by
- 1:50:59Speaker 4: today point two? Today, Matthew eight point two to the tenth.
- 1:51:03Speaker 4: He would give you an answer out of ten to
- 1:51:06Speaker 4: the tenth of val he was doing, hm hmm. I
- 1:51:08Speaker 4: thought that was pretty interesting because everybody goes, oh, I'm
- 1:51:10Speaker 4: good man, great, great, great?
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: Are you that that's some CIA ships?
- 1:51:14Speaker 4: He was adding it up to the tent. What your coordinated?
- 1:51:17Speaker 4: About an eight point two?
- 1:51:18Speaker 2: He had numbers in his head. Yeah, you know. Herbert
- 1:51:21Speaker 2: Walker was the guy that how put off uh and
- 1:51:25Speaker 2: a bunch of these scientists. He brought them together and said,
- 1:51:30Speaker 2: we have recovered crashed UFO more than one occasion, and
- 1:51:34Speaker 2: we have a back engineering program, and we're considering disclosure
- 1:51:39Speaker 2: to the American people. I want you to list the positives,
- 1:51:43Speaker 2: the positive impact of society and the negatives. Yeah, and
- 1:51:46Speaker 2: they did it with quite a few different scientists and
- 1:51:48Speaker 2: they all had more negatives than positive too.
- 1:51:51Speaker 4: If they came out with this information to share this information,
- 1:51:54Speaker 4: that would be the effect on society. Yes, more negatives than.
- 1:51:57Speaker 2: More negatives than positive because disruption of religion, government, economy, well,
- 1:52:04Speaker 2: I mean, I just don't depends on your religion, you know,
- 1:52:09Speaker 2: it depends on where these things are from and what
- 1:52:12Speaker 2: what is happening?
- 1:52:13Speaker 4: What do we ibe Ezekiel has golden chariots from the sky.
- 1:52:16Speaker 2: Exactly, Yeah, and a wheel within a wheel. Yeah, these
- 1:52:19Speaker 2: eco stuff sounds like a UFO encounter. And it's not
- 1:52:23Speaker 2: the only version of that in ancient texts. In the
- 1:52:27Speaker 2: In the ancient Hindu texts, they have vimanas, these things
- 1:52:29Speaker 2: that are flying through the sky, like what is what
- 1:52:31Speaker 2: are those things? You know? In the like Veda, in
- 1:52:35Speaker 2: the even in the Bagavad Gida, there's there's all these
- 1:52:38Speaker 2: depictions of these things that sound like you're talking about
- 1:52:41Speaker 2: a spaceship or at the very least some kind of technology.
- 1:52:45Speaker 2: Like what this thing about the nephilim, like that the
- 1:52:49Speaker 2: gods mated with women and created men who are monstrous. Boy,
- 1:52:53Speaker 2: doesn't that sound like aliens came down in genetically manipulated
- 1:52:58Speaker 2: primates and created human beings. That's a version of it
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: that you could imply from the text. It's all really
- 1:53:07Speaker 2: weird stuff, man, like really weird. If you if you
- 1:53:11Speaker 2: found out that that was all true, it would probably
- 1:53:15Speaker 2: change everything about society. And this is what Herbert Walker
- 1:53:19Speaker 2: and those guys decided after So how put Off was
- 1:53:22Speaker 2: explaining it to me on the podcast, like how they
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: put a numerical value to each thing. I'm like, like,
- 1:53:27Speaker 2: we were that close, Like, imagine if that happens. This
- 1:53:30Speaker 2: is nineteen ninety right.
- 1:53:32Speaker 4: Now, correct me if I'm wrong. But these kind of
- 1:53:35Speaker 4: really weird things, as you put them, they excite you
- 1:53:41Speaker 4: more than they give you fear.
- 1:53:44Speaker 2: That be fair.
- 1:53:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean when you seem excited, you get excited
- 1:53:49Speaker 4: about different possibilities. Yes, I mean, you know, I have
- 1:53:54Speaker 4: people go oh man, No, Rugan loves the conspiracy theoris,
- 1:53:57Speaker 4: like I don't seem like in the conspiracy theories, I
- 1:54:00Speaker 4: see him always being interested in an alternate way something
- 1:54:04Speaker 4: went down and being interested and excited about that, but
- 1:54:07Speaker 4: not going no, no, no, no, no, no, never disengaging from
- 1:54:10Speaker 4: it and going no, no, no, because I believe how
- 1:54:14Speaker 4: it was and what I read, and that's how it
- 1:54:16Speaker 4: is that you're not that's not where you're moving from.
- 1:54:18Speaker 2: No, it's never a denial of information and facts. And
- 1:54:23Speaker 2: it's also a recognition that oftentimes a large swath of
- 1:54:26Speaker 2: society just goes with a narrative without having any real
- 1:54:30Speaker 2: understanding of what the actual facts behind it are. And
- 1:54:33Speaker 2: then there's that term, this pejorative term conspiracy theory. The
- 1:54:37Speaker 2: problem with that, calling someone a conspiracy theorist is conspiracies
- 1:54:40Speaker 2: are real, Like there's a lot of evidence and if
- 1:54:43Speaker 2: you want to sit down, I could fucking show you
- 1:54:45Speaker 2: a ton of them. And so anybody who says like, oh,
- 1:54:48Speaker 2: you're a conspiracy theorist, I'm like, okay, let's talk about conspiracies, Like,
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: do you think that any of them exist? Do you
- 1:54:53Speaker 2: think that people conspire? Is it? Like it's a natural
- 1:54:56Speaker 2: part of human behavior that's been documented throughout history, even governments.
- 1:55:01Speaker 2: I mean literally literally, the thing that got us into
- 1:55:05Speaker 2: the Vietnam War was a conspiracy. Was fake the Gulf
- 1:55:08Speaker 2: of Tonkin. It was a false flag operation that it
- 1:55:12Speaker 2: never took place at all they lied to the American people.
- 1:55:14Speaker 2: That's a conspiracy, Like that's just one conspiracy that turns
- 1:55:17Speaker 2: out to be true. There's a lot of them. The
- 1:55:19Speaker 2: problem is people don't want to look like a conspiracy theorist.
- 1:55:23Speaker 2: They've done such a good job of making it a
- 1:55:27Speaker 2: goofy term that you don't ever want to attach to you.
- 1:55:29Speaker 2: It can cause damage to your reputation if you're in
- 1:55:32Speaker 2: a job where people have to take you seriously. Fortunately
- 1:55:34Speaker 2: I'm not, but if you're in a job where people
- 1:55:36Speaker 2: have to take you seriously, you don't want to say
- 1:55:38Speaker 2: anything weird, like hey, I think aliens are real. People
- 1:55:42Speaker 2: think you're a kook, and then they discount your opinion
- 1:55:45Speaker 2: on everything.
- 1:55:47Speaker 7: Yeah, but if you just know the actual facts, like
- 1:55:54Speaker 7: people that don't think there's anything that aliens are real,
- 1:55:57Speaker 7: there's no way we're alone.
- 1:55:58Speaker 2: There's we've never been contacted.
- 1:56:00Speaker 4: Why not?
- 1:56:01Speaker 2: Gary Nolan, the guy who was on here yesterday, I
- 1:56:03Speaker 2: was talking about cancer research. He was also telling us
- 1:56:05Speaker 2: about a piece of wreckage they found from a craft
- 1:56:08Speaker 2: for is it nineteen fifty that they found it? The
- 1:56:11Speaker 2: first one that Silica won. So they have direct chain
- 1:56:17Speaker 2: of possession of this evidence from I believe it was
- 1:56:21Speaker 2: nineteen fifty and it was almost pure silica, and the
- 1:56:25Speaker 2: magnesium ratios were so off that he said that this
- 1:56:30Speaker 2: magnesium had to have been it had to have been
- 1:56:34Speaker 2: sourced from a place that experienced a neutron bomb every
- 1:56:40Speaker 2: two minutes for nine hundred years. That's how off the
- 1:56:44Speaker 2: isotopes were to magnesium that we find here on Earth.
- 1:56:47Speaker 2: He's like, I'm not saying it's impossible for someone to
- 1:56:50Speaker 2: ever do that, but I'm saying this is from nineteen fifty. Like,
- 1:56:53Speaker 2: this is a real piece of what they're saying is
- 1:56:55Speaker 2: a wreckage of a craft and it has a material
- 1:57:00Speaker 2: position that is impossible for a normal person to create
- 1:57:05Speaker 2: in nineteen fifty, So what the fuck is this? And
- 1:57:08Speaker 2: you to say that to people and they're like, oh, so,
- 1:57:10Speaker 2: Gary Nolan, who's a professor at Stanford, he's a professor
- 1:57:15Speaker 2: in the in the what is his forensics? Is that
- 1:57:20Speaker 2: what his he does cancer research? But what is his
- 1:57:23Speaker 2: actual title? Stanford School of Medicine professor. Anyway, rock solid
- 1:57:29Speaker 2: credentials published and people brought him this material and they said,
- 1:57:34Speaker 2: would you analyze this because you know all these different
- 1:57:37Speaker 2: scientists and now chaired department of Pathology, Stanford School of Medicine.
- 1:57:42Speaker 2: So when a guy like that is saying, no, there's
- 1:57:47Speaker 2: a composition of this piece of wreckage that you can't make. Here,
- 1:57:52Speaker 2: they found a type of alloy that doesn't exist on Earth,
- 1:57:57Speaker 2: and it has on an atomic level, layers upon layers
- 1:58:02Speaker 2: of whatever this alloy is. He's like, this costs billions
- 1:58:06Speaker 2: of dollars to create, and they found it in nineteen seventy. Like,
- 1:58:09Speaker 2: in nineteen seventy no one had this. It's not possible
- 1:58:13Speaker 2: to make. Like, maybe you can make it today, but
- 1:58:15Speaker 2: we don't have the equipment to make it today. You
- 1:58:17Speaker 2: could conceive how someone with enough resources could have that
- 1:58:22Speaker 2: money today to do something like that, but it would
- 1:58:25Speaker 2: be an enormous undertaking. Yeah, and this is a piece
- 1:58:28Speaker 2: of craft that someone found from nineteen seventy six. So
- 1:58:30Speaker 2: when a guy like that is telling you, like, I'm
- 1:58:33Speaker 2: not saying what it is, I'm not saying where it's from,
- 1:58:35Speaker 2: but I'm saying this is fucking crazy.
- 1:58:38Speaker 4: It doesn't add up to us. He could practically do.
- 1:58:40Speaker 2: So when someone says conspiracies like, yeah, yeah, I believe
- 1:58:44Speaker 2: in conspiracies because they're real, right, and because I don't
- 1:58:48Speaker 2: have to worry about being ticket seriously, and most people do.
- 1:58:51Speaker 2: Most people don't want to be a fool. You don't
- 1:58:53Speaker 2: want to be a silly person, you know, you don't
- 1:58:55Speaker 2: want to be mocked when people aren't around you, like
- 1:58:57Speaker 2: you know, fucking Bob believes that JF a assassination.
- 1:59:03Speaker 4: Yeah, you say, because you don't have to be taken seriously.
- 1:59:09Speaker 4: She said, exactly, because wait, because you're saying your your
- 1:59:13Speaker 4: theories on things are solid, or because you in your
- 1:59:17Speaker 4: position are Hey, I don't have to be taken.
- 1:59:20Speaker 2: My job does not rely on me being taken seriously.
- 1:59:23Speaker 4: What do you say to them? It's like, because you
- 1:59:25Speaker 4: get you get attacked for like, hey man, you had
- 1:59:30Speaker 4: so and so on here and and and and and
- 1:59:32Speaker 4: and and and and you playcated them, and you know
- 1:59:36Speaker 4: and and we do take you serious because so many
- 1:59:38Speaker 4: people listen because I always, I always hear, and i'm
- 1:59:41Speaker 4: and I always find that I think there's a hole
- 1:59:43Speaker 4: in those attacks on on you. You have a massive
- 1:59:47Speaker 4: audience listening. Does that mean inherently, not necessarily, is what
- 1:59:52Speaker 4: I hear you're saying that, Oh, everything I say should
- 1:59:54Speaker 4: be taken seriously because that information is going wide. So
- 1:59:58Speaker 4: people's argument is going, Joe, you have a massive audience,
- 2:00:01Speaker 4: so that's your responsibility to make sure bla blah blah
- 2:00:04Speaker 4: they go down that rabbit hole.
- 2:00:05Speaker 2: My responsibility is only just to be me. I don't
- 2:00:08Speaker 2: have a responsibility to do anything else. I definitely have
- 2:00:11Speaker 2: a responsibility not lie to people, and I definitely have
- 2:00:14Speaker 2: a responsibility to not willingly allow someone else to lie
- 2:00:18Speaker 2: without at least questioning that right if I know that
- 2:00:21Speaker 2: they're lying. But other than that, my responsibility is just
- 2:00:25Speaker 2: to keep doing what I've done. And that's why I
- 2:00:27Speaker 2: have a big audience. It's not because it's not because
- 2:00:30Speaker 2: of any other reason. So I'm not going to do
- 2:00:32Speaker 2: anything any differently.
- 2:00:33Speaker 4: No, I see that, I applaud it.
- 2:00:36Speaker 2: I don't think you have to. I don't think it's good.
- 2:00:38Speaker 2: I don't think it's smart. I don't think you'd be
- 2:00:40Speaker 2: paying too much attention to what other people's opinions of
- 2:00:42Speaker 2: what you should or shouldn't be doing are. As long
- 2:00:45Speaker 2: as you have a good internal compass, as long as
- 2:00:48Speaker 2: you have a good true north, and you know, and
- 2:00:50Speaker 2: my true north is how do I feel about it?
- 2:00:52Speaker 4: Like?
- 2:00:52Speaker 2: What do I feel like I'm a good person for
- 2:00:55Speaker 2: doing this do. I feel like that was a beneficial
- 2:00:58Speaker 2: thing for them and for me. I'm happy, they're happy,
- 2:01:01Speaker 2: We're all good, and that's what I want. I just want.
- 2:01:04Speaker 2: I want to hug in a handshake, thank you, that
- 2:01:06Speaker 2: was awesome, good times, and I want to hear from
- 2:01:09Speaker 2: them like this has been amazing for me. That's that
- 2:01:12Speaker 2: makes me excited, that's all. That's all.
- 2:01:14Speaker 4: I like, that's that's cool. You gotta you gotta make
- 2:01:17Speaker 4: it sound so simple, but as you probably know from
- 2:01:19Speaker 4: a lot of people in your position, it ate that simple.
- 2:01:22Speaker 2: It's it, but it is if you follow the right path. Yep,
- 2:01:25Speaker 2: it's not that hard. Like people say it's hard. I'm like,
- 2:01:29Speaker 2: you know, you work so hard, Like look at us
- 2:01:33Speaker 2: right now. This is me working. This is not that hard.
- 2:01:35Speaker 2: This ain't I've had jobs. This is I've done construction
- 2:01:39Speaker 2: of the like horrible jobs that suck. This is not
- 2:01:42Speaker 2: a job. This is just a fun pursuit. So you
- 2:01:45Speaker 2: have a responsibility to the people that listen. And I
- 2:01:48Speaker 2: think the people that listen expect me to be me,
- 2:01:50Speaker 2: and that's all you can do. And as soon as
- 2:01:52Speaker 2: you start changing, they fucking know before you know, like
- 2:01:55Speaker 2: they'll they'll like Oh, you fucking change, and people will
- 2:01:58Speaker 2: always accuse you of change even if you haven't. But
- 2:02:01Speaker 2: I think I've evolved. I've most certainly evolved. I've tempered
- 2:02:06Speaker 2: the way I view life. I'm more I'm definitely kinder
- 2:02:09Speaker 2: and more patient. But I'm the same person, same person,
- 2:02:12Speaker 2: like the same goals, just curious. I'm interested, like talk
- 2:02:16Speaker 2: to people, and I want everybody to do well. I
- 2:02:18Speaker 2: really genuinely do well.
- 2:02:21Speaker 4: That's a that's not that's not an overly common trait.
- 2:02:25Speaker 2: It should be.
- 2:02:26Speaker 4: I think it should be too hard.
- 2:02:27Speaker 2: I think the way you described it is great actually
- 2:02:30Speaker 2: is selfish. And I say that all the time. It
- 2:02:32Speaker 2: really is selfish a kind person.
- 2:02:34Speaker 4: If I'm on a crusade to change the understanding of
- 2:02:38Speaker 4: that word, because I think we sell ourselves short and
- 2:02:41Speaker 4: with there is a way where what is best for
- 2:02:44Speaker 4: us is actually best for those amount of people and
- 2:02:46Speaker 4: vice versa.
- 2:02:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
- 2:02:48Speaker 4: It's at the end of the day, it is all
- 2:02:50Speaker 4: got to be very personal and then to have some
- 2:02:53Speaker 4: dignity in it. It's the difference between choice and a mandate. No,
- 2:02:57Speaker 4: you got a choice, but make the fucking right choice.
- 2:03:00Speaker 4: Measure the choice you got. You got power when you
- 2:03:03Speaker 4: make the choice and you deal with the consequences. I
- 2:03:05Speaker 4: love to go bogie there McConaughey, and I can look
- 2:03:08Speaker 4: in the mirror and go, that's on you. Yeah, I
- 2:03:10Speaker 4: can make a good decisions. Something works out. I can
- 2:03:12Speaker 4: look at the mirror and go, good man, we hit
- 2:03:13Speaker 4: that one on the screw.
- 2:03:14Speaker 2: I like, I honestly like fucking up sometimes because then
- 2:03:17Speaker 2: it makes me really reset and go, oh boy, get
- 2:03:20Speaker 2: it back together.
- 2:03:21Speaker 4: Let's last big fuck up you had.
- 2:03:22Speaker 2: I already have a weird podcast like that one sucked,
- 2:03:26Speaker 2: Like maybe I was worked out too hard for I
- 2:03:28Speaker 2: got here. That's not good like that, that's a bad
- 2:03:31Speaker 2: one that I do sometimes, Like.
- 2:03:32Speaker 4: I'll come in charging and getting over getting ahead.
- 2:03:36Speaker 2: No, like I'm worn out, and then my brain's not
- 2:03:39Speaker 2: firing on all. So like if I do legs like
- 2:03:41Speaker 2: I do a leg day, Yeah, I do a lot
- 2:03:43Speaker 2: of squats, I come into my brain, it's just like
- 2:03:47Speaker 2: wiped out. You know, that's not good. I've done that,
- 2:03:50Speaker 2: you know, you know, but it's just when you're not
- 2:03:54Speaker 2: on point. Okay, what did I do wrong? Why I
- 2:03:55Speaker 2: didn't get enough sleep? You know, maybe I didn't take
- 2:03:58Speaker 2: my noo tropics whatever it was. It's like, maybe I
- 2:04:00Speaker 2: didn't do enough research on the subject. Whatever it is, Like,
- 2:04:05Speaker 2: let's get it back together. Pull that fucking shit back around.
- 2:04:08Speaker 4: See that self regulation, Yeah, you're self regulating because ah,
- 2:04:12Speaker 4: I could have done better. I missed my mark. Oh god,
- 2:04:15Speaker 4: I don't like it when I do that. I'm a
- 2:04:16Speaker 4: litt embarrassed when I do that. Damn. Yeah, yeah, I
- 2:04:19Speaker 4: didn't get I didn't. I didn't leave that situation better
- 2:04:22Speaker 4: than I found it. I didn't come forward. I didn't
- 2:04:23Speaker 4: prepare enough for whatever that might be.
- 2:04:26Speaker 2: Man.
- 2:04:26Speaker 4: More that across the board.
- 2:04:28Speaker 2: It's good for everybody. A man, it's you gotta be
- 2:04:30Speaker 2: your own general. You're gotta be your own like you're like,
- 2:04:33Speaker 2: wake up soldier. Yeah, you know. I always talk about
- 2:04:36Speaker 2: the cold plunge because it is the that is the luntile.
- 2:04:39Speaker 2: People say, oh, how do you do it? Every day?
- 2:04:41Speaker 2: Listen to me very carefully. I almost don't. Every day.
- 2:04:48Speaker 2: Every day I get that close to bitching out every
- 2:04:52Speaker 2: single day. I am amazed how weak I am. I'm amazed.
- 2:04:58Speaker 2: Every time I go to lift that fucking lit off
- 2:05:00Speaker 2: that thing, I'm like, oh my god, I don't I'm
- 2:05:02Speaker 2: not doing this I'm not doing this. I'm not doing it.
- 2:05:05Speaker 2: And then when I get in, I'm like, maybe I
- 2:05:07Speaker 2: only do a minute today. Maybe I'll get out right now.
- 2:05:10Speaker 2: Don't you want to get out right now? I shut
- 2:05:11Speaker 2: the fuck up. I get to let the general talk,
- 2:05:14Speaker 2: and the General's like, shut the fuck up, soldier. He
- 2:05:17Speaker 2: will stay in that water. I'm like that dude from
- 2:05:20Speaker 2: a full metal jacket outstanding this.
- 2:05:23Speaker 4: Yeah, regulation man, Yeah, but.
- 2:05:27Speaker 2: Every day I almost don't. David Goggins told me that too,
- 2:05:31Speaker 2: Who's like the most mentally strong human being I've ever met,
- 2:05:34Speaker 2: and maybe the most mentally strong human beings that's ever
- 2:05:36Speaker 2: walked to face the planet. And he said, he.
- 2:05:39Speaker 3: Goes even though I run every day. Sometimes I look
- 2:05:41Speaker 3: at my sneakers. I stare at those motherfuckers for half
- 2:05:44Speaker 3: an hour before I put them on, just thinking to him.
- 2:05:49Speaker 2: I mean, he's out there running like marathons literally every day.
- 2:05:54Speaker 2: And he was just like, I don't want to do this.
- 2:05:56Speaker 2: I don't want to do it. I don't want to
- 2:05:58Speaker 2: do this. Yes, he does it. That's the thing. It's
- 2:06:01Speaker 2: like people want to think that people that are mentally
- 2:06:03Speaker 2: strong don't struggle. No, you just you do struggle. You
- 2:06:07Speaker 2: always struggle. Yeah, but you win every time, right, you
- 2:06:10Speaker 2: you make sure that you win every time, and you
- 2:06:12Speaker 2: can win every time. But you gotta develop that ability
- 2:06:16Speaker 2: to make yourself do the things you don't necessarily want
- 2:06:19Speaker 2: to do but you know you should.
- 2:06:20Speaker 4: It's a little bit of that. I don't know if
- 2:06:22Speaker 4: you ever saw that Djokovic interview on sixty minutes No
- 2:06:25Speaker 4: D and six minutes interview I forget his name, was
- 2:06:28Speaker 4: going like, look, so you know your mental capacity is
- 2:06:31Speaker 4: why you're so good, and my hunt is that Novak
- 2:06:35Speaker 4: it's because you have less negative thoughts. And Jokovic interrupts him, Ah,
- 2:06:40Speaker 4: you might want to pull this one up. This is good.
- 2:06:42Speaker 4: His answer is great. He goes, no, no, no, I
- 2:06:43Speaker 4: have as many or more negative thoughts. I just get
- 2:06:46Speaker 4: past them quicker than others.
- 2:06:48Speaker 2: Mm.
- 2:06:50Speaker 4: Yeah that's so he's not NYE thoughts. He'sa let him
- 2:06:54Speaker 4: come and then bam, all of the way, I got
- 2:06:56Speaker 4: it on to the next.
- 2:06:57Speaker 2: Yeah. He has control. Yeah, yeah, he has control of
- 2:07:01Speaker 2: those thoughts. They come in and he swats them down. Yeah,
- 2:07:05Speaker 2: you'll have to have some negative thoughts if you're going
- 2:07:07Speaker 2: to be an elite athlete, because you have to be
- 2:07:09Speaker 2: your own worst critic. You can't be satisfied with anything.
- 2:07:12Speaker 2: If you want to reach the very tip of the top.
- 2:07:14Speaker 2: Every movement must be more precise and more explosive and
- 2:07:17Speaker 2: better every time you do it, and you have to
- 2:07:19Speaker 2: do all the training and you leave no stone unturned.
- 2:07:21Speaker 2: And if you don't do that, you're never going to
- 2:07:23Speaker 2: reach the level that he's at in anything.
- 2:07:26Speaker 4: Let me ask you bet this. I got a poem
- 2:07:30Speaker 4: on it, but it me just try and remember what
- 2:07:31Speaker 4: it was about. It's a success in say mma, for instance,
- 2:07:41Speaker 4: what's a better resume for a great performance or victory?
- 2:07:51Speaker 4: Suffering to succeed or revenge?
- 2:07:55Speaker 2: Oh, suffering to succeed?
- 2:07:56Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, why?
- 2:07:58Speaker 2: The emotions that come with revenge crippling. And sometimes they
- 2:08:02Speaker 2: can keep you up at night and they'll they'll fuck
- 2:08:04Speaker 2: with your sleep, and then the consequences of you losing
- 2:08:08Speaker 2: are far greater because you genuinely hate this person. There's
- 2:08:12Speaker 2: a you know, some people thrive under those conditions oddly,
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: but I would think most of the time, most of
- 2:08:21Speaker 2: the time, trying to just achieve the highest version of
- 2:08:25Speaker 2: yourself is the most aspirational and I think the best
- 2:08:29Speaker 2: of the best do that. The very best the George
- 2:08:32Speaker 2: Saint Pierre's of the world.
- 2:08:33Speaker 4: They do that, they're playing against themselves.
- 2:08:36Speaker 2: They're playing against themselves. Yeah, they're trying to be the
- 2:08:38Speaker 2: very best version of themselves that they can be. And
- 2:08:41Speaker 2: if they do that right and leave no stun on turn,
- 2:08:44Speaker 2: they can achieve greatness. But it's not going to be easy.
- 2:08:47Speaker 2: It's going to be they go through hell. I mean,
- 2:08:49Speaker 2: to become an elite fighter is one of the most
- 2:08:52Speaker 2: physically difficult things and then psychologically difficult things that a
- 2:08:56Speaker 2: human being can ever undertake outside of war and maybe
- 2:09:00Speaker 2: law enforcement, you know, other than that, you're dealing with
- 2:09:05Speaker 2: physical struggle the likes of most people will never experience
- 2:09:09Speaker 2: in their life. You're literally hurling bones in the direction
- 2:09:13Speaker 2: of a trained assassin, and the two of you are
- 2:09:17Speaker 2: going to do it publicly, and your underwear in front
- 2:09:19Speaker 2: of the whole world, barefoot, with these little tiny pads
- 2:09:22Speaker 2: on your knuckles and a cup over your dick, and
- 2:09:25Speaker 2: you're just gonna go out there and kick each other
- 2:09:28Speaker 2: and strangle each other. It's crazy. It's a crazy sport.
- 2:09:31Speaker 2: And so there's this balance of the mind and the
- 2:09:34Speaker 2: body and the intention and how you allocate your resources
- 2:09:38Speaker 2: in time and how you manage stress, and how you
- 2:09:41Speaker 2: deal with the pressures of trying to succeed and the
- 2:09:44Speaker 2: doubts and the fears.
- 2:09:47Speaker 4: In the suffering to succeed. Yeah, it is fair to say.
- 2:09:51Speaker 4: I think it is that like the people that you know,
- 2:09:54Speaker 4: like the seeing beyond the immediate, meaning right, we choke
- 2:10:04Speaker 4: at the goal line when we look up and get
- 2:10:08Speaker 4: objective and go oh shit, fourth and one, this it
- 2:10:11Speaker 4: could be the game winner. All I got to give
- 2:10:13Speaker 4: his one yard, whereas no, I run, I will run through,
- 2:10:18Speaker 4: I will use my ability, I will cross that. Bo
- 2:10:20Speaker 4: Jackson when he scored, he go through the end zone,
- 2:10:23Speaker 4: down the fucking tunnel. The best snipers don't aim at
- 2:10:26Speaker 4: the target. They aim on the other side of it.
- 2:10:29Speaker 4: Getting through COVID. Part of what I know helped me
- 2:10:33Speaker 4: was going, oh, it's gonna be like this for ten years,
- 2:10:35Speaker 4: gang family, buckle up.
- 2:10:37Speaker 2: Yeah nice.
- 2:10:38Speaker 4: Ten years it was sure, Oh shit, we were preparing
- 2:10:41Speaker 4: for a much longer journey, going to work out. This
- 2:10:44Speaker 4: is gonna be hell.
- 2:10:46Speaker 2: Get ready for it, dude.
- 2:10:48Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden you're like, all right,
- 2:10:49Speaker 4: that's it. Wait, I'm done projecting past the goal. Cellularly,
- 2:10:55Speaker 4: I think wakes up something in us on survival level
- 2:10:58Speaker 4: that we don't choke, we don't get fatigued as quickly,
- 2:11:02Speaker 4: we don't want to quit sooner because we have in
- 2:11:04Speaker 4: our mind. No, it's the end is not right around
- 2:11:06Speaker 4: the corner, right, and it's it's a bit of a
- 2:11:09Speaker 4: mental trick. But I think that it has something to
- 2:11:13Speaker 4: do with that, that that what what champions do they
- 2:11:18Speaker 4: see beyond they're playing arch Manning right now, There's never
- 2:11:21Speaker 4: been more hype on a quarter college quarterback ever. I
- 2:11:25Speaker 4: believe that guy is wired and that family bloodline is
- 2:11:30Speaker 4: even wired, that they're beyond this hype, this hype. This
- 2:11:32Speaker 4: is mortal right, this is mortal ship. Guys.
- 2:11:35Speaker 2: Great, it's about the process winning game.
- 2:11:37Speaker 4: If you t goes and wins the championships, their preseason
- 2:11:40Speaker 4: ranked number one, never been ranked number one before. I
- 2:11:42Speaker 4: believe that this team is like, oh, well, thank you
- 2:11:45Speaker 4: for the compliment, but we're on our own mission that
- 2:11:48Speaker 4: being preseason ranked number one, or being on the cover
- 2:11:50Speaker 4: of freaking sports field strate is neither curse nor validation.
- 2:11:54Speaker 4: It's just noise out there. And if we do it
- 2:11:57Speaker 4: and you go, we told you you'd be number one,
- 2:11:59Speaker 4: well ad you go, oh, well, thank you, but that's it.
- 2:12:03Speaker 4: I'm not. They don't need a pep rally to go.
- 2:12:06Speaker 4: The rest of the world thinks you can win this too, right, well, good,
- 2:12:10Speaker 4: good for them. We're not playing for them. We're doing
- 2:12:12Speaker 4: our thing. I have a mission here. I believe in
- 2:12:14Speaker 4: the path that I'm on, and I'm going beyond this
- 2:12:17Speaker 4: hype or I'm going beyond this game. I'm playing for
- 2:12:20Speaker 4: a whole. I'm prepared mentally and spiritually for an entire
- 2:12:22Speaker 4: season of hell. I'm prepared to fight this assassin on
- 2:12:26Speaker 4: the other side of me, that is wants to defend
- 2:12:29Speaker 4: and do to me what I want to do to them.
- 2:12:31Speaker 4: Making the the resistance or the adversary seem bigger and
- 2:12:37Speaker 4: longer and going to be more tumultuous seems to be
- 2:12:40Speaker 4: a good way to succeed going beyond. And all of
- 2:12:43Speaker 4: a sudden, you look up, I get this from when
- 2:12:45Speaker 4: I've done my best acting. I didn't know it was
- 2:12:49Speaker 4: the last day when they yield cut at the end
- 2:12:52Speaker 4: of the last scene of the last day of shooting,
- 2:12:55Speaker 4: I was walking off art see you tomorrow, and they're like, no, no,
- 2:12:57Speaker 4: there is no tomorrow.
- 2:12:58Speaker 2: You were just in the line that's it.
- 2:13:00Speaker 4: That's it. We wrapped. Oh shit, Oh hey, Joe, how
- 2:13:06Speaker 4: you doing for the first time, because you were just
- 2:13:07Speaker 4: locked in boom best rounds of golf. I walked off
- 2:13:12Speaker 4: the eighteenth green and was heading to the next tea
- 2:13:17Speaker 4: box to look up and realize, I know that's it.
- 2:13:21Speaker 2: You played eight.
- 2:13:21Speaker 4: Oh shit, what I shoot seventy four? Huh. I didn't
- 2:13:25Speaker 4: look at my scorecard on sixteen and go, if I
- 2:13:28Speaker 4: can just keep it in the fairway, slash three holes,
- 2:13:31Speaker 4: maybe get in with the pards, don't bogeat. It didn't anticipate,
- 2:13:35Speaker 4: so I didn't get my room. I behaved and went
- 2:13:37Speaker 4: through the finish line. Yeah, that's something in there is
- 2:13:40Speaker 4: in suffering to succeed rather than fighting for revenge seeing
- 2:13:44Speaker 4: on the other side of the target.
- 2:13:47Speaker 2: Yeah, you follow what I'm Yeah. It's also like concentrating
- 2:13:52Speaker 2: on what you're trying to do versus the impact of
- 2:13:55Speaker 2: what it is, like if I miss this, oh my god,
- 2:13:57Speaker 2: I'm fucking yeah right. Yeah. Instead of that, you're thinking
- 2:14:00Speaker 2: about I'm going to make this. This is how I
- 2:14:02Speaker 2: make this, This is how I do this.
- 2:14:03Speaker 4: This is how I do this, this is how I behave.
- 2:14:05Speaker 4: It's also in today's world, with all the stimulus we're
- 2:14:08Speaker 4: talking about in social media, et cetera, we're all sort
- 2:14:11Speaker 4: of living in the third person or being fed opportunities
- 2:14:14Speaker 4: to live in the third person all the time. It's
- 2:14:16Speaker 4: like we have a jumbo drawn, and to use a
- 2:14:20Speaker 4: football analogy, you kick me the ball. I'm running the
- 2:14:22Speaker 4: kick off back and I'm going down the sideline and
- 2:14:24Speaker 4: I see the goal line. I think I'm going to score,
- 2:14:27Speaker 4: and then I have a look at the jumbo trying
- 2:14:29Speaker 4: to see how I'm doing. That's what I'm getting tackled
- 2:14:32Speaker 4: from behind. If we step outside to have a look
- 2:14:35Speaker 4: at how we're doing.
- 2:14:37Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.
- 2:14:39Speaker 4: That passenger you open up talking about when you're hitting
- 2:14:42Speaker 4: it comedically is not hopping out over here to have
- 2:14:45Speaker 4: a look.
- 2:14:46Speaker 2: And if you do, you'll get lost.
- 2:14:48Speaker 4: You get lost, You get conscious of what you're behaving,
- 2:14:50Speaker 4: what you know how to do, what's your fashion to do,
- 2:14:53Speaker 4: and you're out of the moment and you become objective.
- 2:14:56Speaker 2: You get someone do something where we know they're the
- 2:15:00Speaker 2: zone right, like where someone runs in for a layup
- 2:15:02Speaker 2: and it's like the most beautiful movements avoiding the defenders
- 2:15:07Speaker 2: up in the air, drops the ball and we're like, wow,
- 2:15:11Speaker 2: when we see someone just hit the zone. We see
- 2:15:14Speaker 2: it in a fight, when we see someone just flow,
- 2:15:18Speaker 2: we see someone flowing, like wow, he's feeling it. You
- 2:15:22Speaker 2: know WHOA she's locked in. We love that because we
- 2:15:26Speaker 2: know that it's somewhere in ourselves and maybe at one
- 2:15:29Speaker 2: point in your life you experienced it. Might have been
- 2:15:31Speaker 2: playing mini golf or something like it. One point in
- 2:15:33Speaker 2: your life you're like, I think I felt a little
- 2:15:35Speaker 2: bit of that, right.
- 2:15:37Speaker 4: How much do you think preparation has to do with
- 2:15:40Speaker 4: the freedom to adapt and flow once you're in the game.
- 2:15:43Speaker 2: A lot, A lot, a lot, Yeah, almost everything. You
- 2:15:47Speaker 2: If you're not prepared, your ability to adjust is very limited.
- 2:15:52Speaker 2: You have to be fully prepared and then let it flow.
- 2:15:56Speaker 2: But you have to like really really have all your
- 2:16:00Speaker 2: basis covered to just like just so that you don't
- 2:16:02Speaker 2: have anxiety. I could have done more. Yeah, that is
- 2:16:06Speaker 2: a big issue with fighters. We see fighters towards the
- 2:16:08Speaker 2: end of their career. There's a thing that happens with
- 2:16:11Speaker 2: fighters realize they're probably never going to be champion and
- 2:16:14Speaker 2: they're just doing it for a paycheck. And you know,
- 2:16:16Speaker 2: you see sometimes they'll show up and they look a
- 2:16:18Speaker 2: little soft, and you like you see a little fear
- 2:16:21Speaker 2: in their eyes because they know they really are not focused,
- 2:16:24Speaker 2: they're really not dialed in. But this is what they're
- 2:16:26Speaker 2: doing for a paycheck now, and it's not good, right
- 2:16:30Speaker 2: because the other guy on the other side of the
- 2:16:31Speaker 2: octagon is the opposite. That guy's dialed in. Yeah, maybe
- 2:16:35Speaker 2: he's only like twenty five and he's like coming into
- 2:16:38Speaker 2: his prime and you're a stepping stone for him.
- 2:16:41Speaker 4: And it's like ooh, and the and and the problem.
- 2:16:44Speaker 4: Fear that is what getting actually really injured. Sure more
- 2:16:47Speaker 4: so than if you were yourself.
- 2:16:50Speaker 2: You'll definitely take shots you wouldn't take, and then you're
- 2:16:53Speaker 2: you don't have the endurance to keep up a pace,
- 2:16:55Speaker 2: right because you look to to get to the shape
- 2:16:59Speaker 2: that you have to have to be in to be
- 2:17:02Speaker 2: able to compete in a five round MMA fight. It's
- 2:17:04Speaker 2: almost impossible to maintain like chill. Sun's talked about this extensively.
- 2:17:09Speaker 2: It's like you can't keep it up. It's not like
- 2:17:11Speaker 2: a level of conditioning that you can keep up all
- 2:17:14Speaker 2: year round. You have to peek to it where you're
- 2:17:17Speaker 2: like your body's barely hanging on, and then you coast
- 2:17:20Speaker 2: the last week to allow yourself to like recover, and
- 2:17:23Speaker 2: you're just kind of going through movements the last few days,
- 2:17:25Speaker 2: and then on Saturday under the bright lights, you are
- 2:17:29Speaker 2: at one hundred percent capacity. I mean, they've been monitoring
- 2:17:32Speaker 2: your fucking heart rate and checking your resting heart rate
- 2:17:35Speaker 2: and checking your blood your heart rate variability, and whether
- 2:17:39Speaker 2: your nutrient levels at you're fucking finely.
- 2:17:42Speaker 4: Tuned for corn and that Saturday night.
- 2:17:45Speaker 2: And if you're not, if you didn't cover any of
- 2:17:48Speaker 2: those bases, you're gonna know the back of your head,
- 2:17:50Speaker 2: you're gonna know, like, I'm gonna give it my best,
- 2:17:52Speaker 2: But boy, I don't have a big gas tank and
- 2:17:55Speaker 2: I could have trained harder.
- 2:17:56Speaker 4: And I'm so damn excited about this. Seems like this
- 2:18:03Speaker 4: the blind spot that still is there to be taking
- 2:18:06Speaker 4: advantage of for preparing for peak performance. Daryl Royal, coach
- 2:18:10Speaker 4: of the University of Texas at won a couple of
- 2:18:12Speaker 4: national championships here at Texas, had always said, you've got
- 2:18:16Speaker 4: twelve games in the year. You can expect for your
- 2:18:22Speaker 4: team to be at peak performance level two Saturdays out
- 2:18:27Speaker 4: of twelve. You want to make sure that those two
- 2:18:30Speaker 4: Saturdays are against the toughest teams. You want to make
- 2:18:33Speaker 4: sure that the other ones where they're like, ah, okay,
- 2:18:35Speaker 4: they did well, but they didn't play to their pa
- 2:18:37Speaker 4: performances are against the good teams, and you want to
- 2:18:39Speaker 4: do your best to make sure that the days that
- 2:18:41Speaker 4: they're off, you're playing the shitty teams that you can
- 2:18:43Speaker 4: beat even when you're not mainly there. That seems like
- 2:18:47Speaker 4: so much more opportunity for that number to rise today,
- 2:18:51Speaker 4: to have a much higher number that you can be
- 2:18:53Speaker 4: ready for peak performance. Who are the best preparers in
- 2:18:59Speaker 4: I don't know today in your mind.
- 2:19:01Speaker 2: Well, when you get to a championship level, when you
- 2:19:05Speaker 2: get to like als Chandre Pantosio, or when you get
- 2:19:08Speaker 2: to you know, Islam Maka Cheff, when you get to
- 2:19:12Speaker 2: like that level, they're all, you're a championship level, they're all.
- 2:19:16Speaker 2: They all have impeccable preparation. They're all, yes, it's impeccable, impeccable, so.
- 2:19:24Speaker 4: It's measured, it's time, this is yeah.
- 2:19:26Speaker 2: They're all dialed in with diet, they're dialed in with
- 2:19:29Speaker 2: their weight, they're dialed in with strength and conditioning. They're
- 2:19:31Speaker 2: dialed in with their sparring. It's impeccable. You can't compete
- 2:19:36Speaker 2: at a world class level today and not have that.
- 2:19:39Speaker 2: It's not possible.
- 2:19:40Speaker 4: So physically, yeah, mentally, yeah, are these two different coaches?
- 2:19:46Speaker 4: Are these one?
- 2:19:47Speaker 2: Some people don't have mental coaches at all, Some elite
- 2:19:49Speaker 2: fighters have no mental coaches, but some of them do.
- 2:19:52Speaker 2: Some of them, Like we had this guy Brandon Epstein
- 2:19:54Speaker 2: the other day that he works with quite a few
- 2:19:56Speaker 2: UFC fighters and he's got a very specific protocol that
- 2:19:59Speaker 2: he ma until he prepares them for and he coaches
- 2:20:02Speaker 2: them through things and and and sets up like a
- 2:20:06Speaker 2: way to visualize and see yourself performing and see yourself
- 2:20:10Speaker 2: doing things and how you how you view your performance like,
- 2:20:13Speaker 2: and to get you into a mindset where once you
- 2:20:15Speaker 2: get into that octagon, you're locked into this pathway instead
- 2:20:18Speaker 2: of like straying and letting anxiety and fear overcrom you,
- 2:20:21Speaker 2: which can happen to fighters.
- 2:20:22Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:20:23Speaker 2: But then there's other guys that don't have any coaches
- 2:20:26Speaker 2: for that at all. They just have the mindset already
- 2:20:29Speaker 2: and they're comfortable with what they have and they just
- 2:20:31Speaker 2: stay disciplined and just go in there. It's it's very
- 2:20:35Speaker 2: personal because everybody's brain is different and everybody's They all
- 2:20:39Speaker 2: have like different ways of expressing themselves, different ways.
- 2:20:44Speaker 4: How much is technology and diet and stuff helped a lot?
- 2:20:48Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot a lot. Technology just understanding nutritional balances.
- 2:20:56Speaker 2: Understanding like when you do a nutrient analysis or your
- 2:20:59Speaker 2: blood work, click, oh, you're deficient in niosin. This is
- 2:21:03Speaker 2: your Probably you're wearing down. You don't have enough Beat
- 2:21:05Speaker 2: twelve in your system. Making sure you get the correct
- 2:21:09Speaker 2: amount of protein, Like, you can't. You can't miss any
- 2:21:13Speaker 2: of those things. If you want to achieve peak performance,
- 2:21:16Speaker 2: you have to have everything your hydration, your electrolytes, everything
- 2:21:19Speaker 2: has to be dialed in your sleep, which is one
- 2:21:22Speaker 2: of the biggest ones. Like this is like a lot
- 2:21:24Speaker 2: of these young guys. The problem is they still go
- 2:21:27Speaker 2: out and party. They're still hanging out with girls till
- 2:21:30Speaker 2: two o'clock in the morning, and then they're at training
- 2:21:32Speaker 2: at eight am. Like, you can't do that and be
- 2:21:35Speaker 2: a professional and expect to be world class or expect
- 2:21:37Speaker 2: to beat the guys who are just as good as you.
- 2:21:40Speaker 2: But get that preparation, they're going to have an advantage.
- 2:21:42Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know the argument of athletes. You know, well,
- 2:21:47Speaker 4: who was better then or now, what would they have
- 2:21:50Speaker 4: done then or what would This is my my I
- 2:21:53Speaker 4: think that we've athletes have evolved in athletes we have
- 2:21:57Speaker 4: now are just better than athletes ever were.
- 2:21:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that they're.
- 2:22:00Speaker 4: Bigger, the more powerful, they're more focused, they're more specific,
- 2:22:05Speaker 4: that they're just better that if they played in that time,
- 2:22:07Speaker 4: they would be that much better than even than they
- 2:22:09Speaker 4: are now. Yeah, seems to be. I think we're just
- 2:22:12Speaker 4: evolving that way.
- 2:22:13Speaker 2: They also have the benefit of watching people do it
- 2:22:16Speaker 2: before them and do it really well, so they aspire
- 2:22:19Speaker 2: to that level and then to surpass that level. Whereas
- 2:22:21Speaker 2: those people were pioneers. Larry Bird didn't have a lot
- 2:22:24Speaker 2: of people to watch play basketball before Larry Bird. You know,
- 2:22:28Speaker 2: there was a few, but you know, black and white footage.
- 2:22:30Speaker 2: It's not like you didn't see it every day. He
- 2:22:32Speaker 2: didn't have it on the internet. Now, kids they could
- 2:22:34Speaker 2: just watch every Jordan highlight reel, every time Lebron James
- 2:22:38Speaker 2: has scored, every Steph Curry three pointer. They could watch
- 2:22:41Speaker 2: it anytime they want, and then that is a level
- 2:22:44Speaker 2: that they're aspiring to. Think of all the football games
- 2:22:47Speaker 2: that kids can watch now and analyze. Think of all
- 2:22:49Speaker 2: the fights that people coming up now that want to
- 2:22:51Speaker 2: be a martial artist they can watch, and so they
- 2:22:54Speaker 2: aspire to this level that has already been achieved by
- 2:22:57Speaker 2: the greatest of all time, and then they want to
- 2:22:59Speaker 2: surpass them, which is what human beings have always done
- 2:23:02Speaker 2: athletically all throughout time. Who've It's not like guys who
- 2:23:06Speaker 2: broke records in the nineteen thirties, we don't break those today.
- 2:23:09Speaker 2: Like those are not the same records, like those don't
- 2:23:11Speaker 2: hold up. We one hundred get better.
- 2:23:14Speaker 4: Yep.
- 2:23:15Speaker 2: From ninety years ago to today, there is no comparison.
- 2:23:17Speaker 2: The athletes are far better, and they're going to continue
- 2:23:20Speaker 2: ninety years from now probably be if there's humans, they'll
- 2:23:25Speaker 2: probably be far better.
- 2:23:27Speaker 4: You know. Experiments that have happened in the NFL, you know,
- 2:23:31Speaker 4: and I think these I think this is correct. But
- 2:23:34Speaker 4: I was always Washington. It was then the Redskins fan
- 2:23:37Speaker 4: and uh, I think it was nineteen eighty six or
- 2:23:40Speaker 4: nineteen eighty eight that had the heaviest offensive line and
- 2:23:42Speaker 4: the average two eighty six somewhere around there. Those numbers
- 2:23:47Speaker 4: big fellows, right, but compared to today, that would be
- 2:23:52Speaker 4: the lightest, right. And then Dallas with Nate Newton, and
- 2:23:56Speaker 4: those guys had a point where they were going, Oh,
- 2:23:58Speaker 4: we're gonna get guys up to three. Oh, let's give
- 2:24:01Speaker 4: him to three forty. And they peaked when some of
- 2:24:04Speaker 4: them got to three sixty the bone marrow. They were big,
- 2:24:07Speaker 4: but they lost agility and speed and went, oh we
- 2:24:09Speaker 4: hit the ceiling, we went past it. We got to
- 2:24:12Speaker 4: come back.
- 2:24:13Speaker 2: There's Hogs guy in the middle with a mustache.
- 2:24:21Speaker 4: Jude Jakobe over here, sixty six.
- 2:24:23Speaker 2: Big fellas the Hogs. What a great name. Yeah, that's hilarious.
- 2:24:29Speaker 4: Yeah, he hit the top of like Dallas.
- 2:24:32Speaker 2: It hit. They hit.
- 2:24:32Speaker 4: They went too far. I think it was biggers better,
- 2:24:34Speaker 4: so let's get bigger. And then all of a sudden,
- 2:24:36Speaker 4: agility went, oh it's not three sixty, it's come way back,
- 2:24:39Speaker 4: come back down.
- 2:24:40Speaker 2: Well, believe it or not. The UFC heavyweight division has
- 2:24:42Speaker 2: a weight class. You can't be over two hundred and
- 2:24:44Speaker 2: sixty five pounds. You can't. No, they have to weigh
- 2:24:49Speaker 2: to fight for the UFC heavyweight title, you must weigh
- 2:24:53Speaker 2: two hundred and sixty five pounds or below.
- 2:24:57Speaker 4: So you're to seventy.
- 2:24:59Speaker 2: You gotta lose weight.
- 2:25:00Speaker 4: You don't.
- 2:25:01Speaker 2: You got a way It's happened before where guys had
- 2:25:04Speaker 2: to lose weight to fight heavyweight. Tim Sylvia when he
- 2:25:07Speaker 2: was the UFC heavyweight Champion, had to cut weight to
- 2:25:10Speaker 2: hit the two hundred and sixty five pound weight class.
- 2:25:13Speaker 2: He was so big that like two sixty five was
- 2:25:17Speaker 2: a struggle for him to get down to.
- 2:25:20Speaker 4: Isn't that number gonna have to well, I would.
- 2:25:23Speaker 2: Assume it should, But the problem is there's actually a
- 2:25:26Speaker 2: heavyweight class above that that's super heavyweight, but we've never
- 2:25:29Speaker 2: had that in the UFC. There's never been a single
- 2:25:31Speaker 2: super heavyweight fight in the UFC. Everything has always been
- 2:25:34Speaker 2: inside the two hundred and sixty five pound weight class,
- 2:25:36Speaker 2: which I think is real weird because like.
- 2:25:38Speaker 4: Where'd that number come from?
- 2:25:40Speaker 2: I don't know. The numbers are real weird anyway, because
- 2:25:43Speaker 2: there's giant gaps in them. It's like one of the
- 2:25:45Speaker 2: major problems with MMA is that there's a lack of
- 2:25:48Speaker 2: weight classes. So in boxing, there's weight classes all you
- 2:25:52Speaker 2: got one twenty six, one thirty one, thirty five. It
- 2:25:55Speaker 2: goes one thirty five to one forty one, forty one,
- 2:25:58Speaker 2: forty seven, one forty seven, fifty four. With the UFC,
- 2:26:02Speaker 2: it's like thirty five, forty five, fifty five, then it
- 2:26:05Speaker 2: goes seventy eighty five, so you got a fifteen pound
- 2:26:08Speaker 2: weight difference. And then it goes two to oh five,
- 2:26:10Speaker 2: so you got twenty twenties, and then you got two
- 2:26:12Speaker 2: sixty five, so that's sixty pounds for heavyweight. It's crazy.
- 2:26:17Speaker 2: The gaps are just too big, right, They're gigantic. So
- 2:26:20Speaker 2: that's a major problem with MMA in that there's less
- 2:26:24Speaker 2: weight classes than there should be. And then you have
- 2:26:27Speaker 2: a cap on heavyweight, which is bananas, Like you should
- 2:26:30Speaker 2: have no cap. Heavyweight should be How big is this guy? Like,
- 2:26:33Speaker 2: let him fight.
- 2:26:34Speaker 4: Because you think you can handle him, come in.
- 2:26:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean what about the mountain that guy from
- 2:26:38Speaker 2: Game of Thrones? If that guy had a fight in
- 2:26:40Speaker 2: the UFC, he wouldn't be able to make weight. He's
- 2:26:42Speaker 2: too big. He's that guy's almost four hundred pounds, you know.
- 2:26:49Speaker 4: Yeah, I never knew that. I thought heavyweight's like two
- 2:26:51Speaker 4: sixty five up.
- 2:26:53Speaker 2: What it should be.
- 2:26:54Speaker 4: Whatever you want to come in with, that's what it
- 2:26:55Speaker 4: should be.
- 2:26:56Speaker 2: Yeah, but there really should be a weight class around
- 2:26:58Speaker 2: two twenty five.
- 2:27:00Speaker 4: There's something like that class would name a new class.
- 2:27:03Speaker 2: Well, boxing has something like that. What is the boxing
- 2:27:06Speaker 2: weight class that's like below heavyweight, there's cruiser weight, but
- 2:27:09Speaker 2: then there's a new one. There's a recent one over
- 2:27:13Speaker 2: the past few years that they've developed. But that's one
- 2:27:17Speaker 2: thing that boxing does a much better job with, I
- 2:27:19Speaker 2: think providing fighters the correct weight class where they can
- 2:27:23Speaker 2: compete in. What is it called. That's it. I think
- 2:27:28Speaker 2: another one that they're calling they're calling it God, I
- 2:27:33Speaker 2: can't remember the name of it, super crazy, Yeah, that's it.
- 2:27:40Speaker 2: I think they called it something different though they had
- 2:27:42Speaker 2: a name for it. Eh. Whatever, Maybe you'll find it,
- 2:27:46Speaker 2: maybe not. But the point is two sixty five is
- 2:27:50Speaker 2: the limit. So like Francis and Gano when he was
- 2:27:52Speaker 2: the heavyweight champion, he used to have a cut weight.
- 2:27:55Speaker 2: He had to lose weight to get down to two
- 2:27:57Speaker 2: sixty five.
- 2:27:59Speaker 4: And then how much is he putting on that last week?
- 2:28:02Speaker 2: He's probably putting an only ten on At least he's
- 2:28:05Speaker 2: not losing a ton, but he's got to watch his
- 2:28:07Speaker 2: calorie output. Him he's a massive human.
- 2:28:09Speaker 4: Hey, I met him in Saudi Arabia.
- 2:28:12Speaker 2: So big, he's so big. That's a real tragedy that
- 2:28:17Speaker 2: him in the UFC couldn't figure it out. That bothers
- 2:28:20Speaker 2: me a lot, because that guy was He was the
- 2:28:23Speaker 2: scariest heavyweight champion of all time. For sure. He put
- 2:28:26Speaker 2: guys in orbit. He would hit them, and you just go, oh,
- 2:28:30Speaker 2: it would hurt you like watching it, You're like, oh, no,
- 2:28:35Speaker 2: all men are not created equal. That's another problem with fighting.
- 2:28:38Speaker 2: No matter how much preparation you have, no matter how
- 2:28:41Speaker 2: intelligent you have you are, some people are faster and
- 2:28:45Speaker 2: hit harder than you. And you ain't gonna fix that.
- 2:28:48Speaker 2: In the gym. You'll get a little better, but you're
- 2:28:50Speaker 2: never going to breege that gap.
- 2:28:53Speaker 4: I had a dream of being an NBA basketball player.
- 2:28:57Speaker 2: Was that your dream for a while? How old were you?
- 2:29:00Speaker 4: I was young, and I was I was like, I'm
- 2:29:01Speaker 4: gonna dunk. No matter how much this guy sitting here
- 2:29:06Speaker 4: would have worked out and hustled, I was never going
- 2:29:08Speaker 4: to be able to dunk. Bro didn't have the inate ability,
- 2:29:11Speaker 4: didn't have the DNA, didn't have the makeup.
- 2:29:12Speaker 2: I bet you could. I bet you could over time.
- 2:29:16Speaker 2: I bet someone could teach you how to dunk. I
- 2:29:18Speaker 2: bet if someone got you on like a serious trading
- 2:29:21Speaker 2: program when you're younger. Right now, it would be rough, rough, track,
- 2:29:25Speaker 2: it would be rough on the tendons. Yes, stress, what
- 2:29:29Speaker 2: do you get to be ari? Just like her? Maybe
- 2:29:31Speaker 2: you shouldn't be dunking. How about take dunking off the menu.
- 2:29:35Speaker 2: But when you're young, I think you could teach a guy.
- 2:29:37Speaker 2: But it would you know, it's not as easy as that,
- 2:29:40Speaker 2: Like for some people they could just dunk.
- 2:29:42Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, Well that thing about not everyone being created equal. Yeah,
- 2:29:47Speaker 4: you got to have inateibility.
- 2:29:48Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and the hustle.
- 2:29:52Speaker 4: Ok ethic if you got both. And there's a lot
- 2:29:55Speaker 4: of Look, there's a lot of five star players who
- 2:29:59Speaker 4: don't I had the hustle.
- 2:30:00Speaker 2: Yeah. And then there's a lot of some of the
- 2:30:02Speaker 2: most talented ones right because it's too easy to them. Yeah,
- 2:30:05Speaker 2: and some of the ones that aren't as talented but
- 2:30:08Speaker 2: just will not stop. Ye, they will not stop pushing
- 2:30:12Speaker 2: because they had to work harder for everything they ever did.
- 2:30:14Speaker 2: They have that extra gear and that allows them to
- 2:30:16Speaker 2: be champions.
- 2:30:17Speaker 4: I hear more and more CEOs saying give me Johnny
- 2:30:24Speaker 4: and Jane hustle from Western Kentucky before Belinda and Joseph
- 2:30:33Speaker 4: from Harvard.
- 2:30:34Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I would agree with that.
- 2:30:38Speaker 4: Do you need this one that's ready to come hustle
- 2:30:41Speaker 4: that' you're ready to get scrappy, adapt work, press the
- 2:30:44Speaker 4: edges on the front and the back end.
- 2:30:46Speaker 2: Yeah, give me that and someone is all in. Yeah,
- 2:30:50Speaker 2: you want someone who's all in. You don't want someone
- 2:30:51Speaker 2: who's like looking at the clock, wants to leave, someone
- 2:30:54Speaker 2: is just like doesn't feel like they're being appreciated enough.
- 2:30:58Speaker 2: You want someone who's like fully all in on their work.
- 2:31:01Speaker 4: Do you think there's been there's theories about with AI
- 2:31:05Speaker 4: coming that now more than ever, that's what you need
- 2:31:08Speaker 4: is the one that knows a little It has more
- 2:31:11Speaker 4: of a liberal arts education. I know, I know, I know,
- 2:31:14Speaker 4: I know a little bit a lot of things, and
- 2:31:15Speaker 4: I can hit many different avenues rather than be an
- 2:31:18Speaker 4: expertise in one certain thing. I mean, it's like, just
- 2:31:21Speaker 4: what six years ago you tour the campuses that were
- 2:31:24Speaker 4: like computer programming. That's what you want your job to be.
- 2:31:28Speaker 4: That's what we need right now.
- 2:31:29Speaker 2: You don't now it's all done telling you don't don't
- 2:31:32Speaker 2: get into programming.
- 2:31:33Speaker 4: Yeah, So what specifics are the jobs or the creations
- 2:31:38Speaker 4: of locations that are going to be out there for
- 2:31:41Speaker 4: our youth here coming up that are gonna be like
- 2:31:43Speaker 4: that's how you gotta make it. I questioned the college education.
- 2:31:46Speaker 4: Now I question the worth of it. How much is
- 2:31:49Speaker 4: it still a knowledge factory that has not adapted to
- 2:31:51Speaker 4: changing times and needs in the workforce, and how much
- 2:31:55Speaker 4: of it needs to be updated for getting young men
- 2:31:59Speaker 4: and women prepare to go into the workforce.
- 2:32:01Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good question. I think it's really unknown territory.
- 2:32:05Speaker 2: And I think AI is gonna take jobs away that
- 2:32:08Speaker 2: we never thought we were gonna lose. I think lawyers
- 2:32:13Speaker 2: are off, they're in trouble. Coders are gone, count gone,
- 2:32:17Speaker 2: accountants are gone. Yeah, it's gonna be really fucking weird.
- 2:32:20Speaker 2: It's gonna be really weird for Hollywood. I mean, you've
- 2:32:22Speaker 2: seen some of these films that if you've seen the
- 2:32:25Speaker 2: old Star Wars that they're doing, they're remaking Star Wars
- 2:32:28Speaker 2: with AI, with old Luke Skywalker like when he was young,
- 2:32:32Speaker 2: like when Luke Skywalker's they're doing completely new scenes that
- 2:32:36Speaker 2: look exactly like HD versions of Star Wars in nineteen
- 2:32:43Speaker 2: seventy five is what it looks like, but it's in
- 2:32:46Speaker 2: HD today with AI using Mark Hamill's voice, so it
- 2:32:51Speaker 2: sounds exactly like him as young Luke Skywalker. It's bananas, man,
- 2:32:56Speaker 2: it's bananas. There's a lot of weirdness with music. There's
- 2:33:02Speaker 2: a lot of weirdness with literature. You're going to have
- 2:33:04Speaker 2: all sorts of aich So no one knows what's going
- 2:33:08Speaker 2: to survive this. I think I assume that a bunch
- 2:33:11Speaker 2: of people at the end of the day are going
- 2:33:13Speaker 2: to get really sick of artificially created things and want
- 2:33:16Speaker 2: something that they know was made by a person, whether
- 2:33:19Speaker 2: it's a book that is made by a person or
- 2:33:21Speaker 2: a song like an Oliver anthems.
- 2:33:23Speaker 4: We're gonna want.
- 2:33:24Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna want books. Yeah, books are gonna be
- 2:33:28Speaker 2: like like you know, some people just love vinyl, Yeah,
- 2:33:32Speaker 2: love them. They just love the pressing, the needle down,
- 2:33:35Speaker 2: hearing the crackle, and that's that's what. There's gonna be
- 2:33:40Speaker 2: a lot of that. Still, people are gonna want to
- 2:33:42Speaker 2: buy books from people that actually wrote the book. They're
- 2:33:45Speaker 2: going to want to go to see a guy perform
- 2:33:47Speaker 2: music in an actual club where you see the guy
- 2:33:50Speaker 2: on stage, you know it's live. That there is always
- 2:33:55Speaker 2: going to be a desire for handmade things. A guy
- 2:33:58Speaker 2: made this table, I know them, you know. But other
- 2:34:02Speaker 2: than that, man, no one knows it's the unknown because
- 2:34:06Speaker 2: no one knows what the capabilities of these things are
- 2:34:08Speaker 2: going to be.
- 2:34:09Speaker 4: Well, and the the tech, the the AI tech companies
- 2:34:15Speaker 4: keep saying, now, trust is a lot of jobs is
- 2:34:18Speaker 4: gonna be lost. But I had going to create so
- 2:34:20Speaker 4: many other jobs. But I haven't heard him. You want
- 2:34:23Speaker 4: to answer what those jobs are going to be?
- 2:34:26Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't even think they know. Honestly, they don't
- 2:34:29Speaker 2: even know why these things are so good at what
- 2:34:31Speaker 2: they are good at. They keep getting smarter and smarter
- 2:34:35Speaker 2: and they blow them away. Like Elon told me that
- 2:34:37Speaker 2: every week is like these new discoveries there. It's like,
- 2:34:40Speaker 2: what this is crazy? Like every week we're blown away.
- 2:34:43Speaker 2: So they just it just keeps getting more and more capable.
- 2:34:47Speaker 2: We don't know where this is going. So if you're
- 2:34:49Speaker 2: in college right now, like I mean, it's so cliche
- 2:34:55Speaker 2: to say follow your dream, but really do follow your
- 2:34:57Speaker 2: fucking dream because that might be the only thing that
- 2:34:59Speaker 2: you've got, right Because if you think you're just going
- 2:35:02Speaker 2: to get a really good job in an industry that
- 2:35:04Speaker 2: might be completely wiped out in three years by AI,
- 2:35:07Speaker 2: that's a lot of people are going to be going
- 2:35:09Speaker 2: down that path.
- 2:35:11Speaker 4: A lot. Yeah, Yeah, it's crime going to go up.
- 2:35:18Speaker 4: You have people out of jobs, they're going to be
- 2:35:20Speaker 4: you know, what are these people.
- 2:35:21Speaker 2: Going to do? Could? I think it's universal basic income.
- 2:35:24Speaker 2: It's probably the only way to solve, at least on
- 2:35:26Speaker 2: the short term where how we're going to lose a
- 2:35:30Speaker 2: lot of stuff. Look at you, man, you've got a
- 2:35:31Speaker 2: lot of little tabs in there. I organized, you're very organized.
- 2:35:36Speaker 4: Well these are one day. I thought it could be
- 2:35:40Speaker 4: cool comment that that cool conversation starters for for us,
- 2:35:46Speaker 4: and we've kind of covered actually some of them. You
- 2:35:49Speaker 4: read anyone read poems on the show before?
- 2:35:51Speaker 2: Yeah, Alex Friedman, he there you go. All right, you
- 2:35:55Speaker 2: want to find a good one. We'll wrap it up
- 2:35:57Speaker 2: with a great poem.
- 2:35:58Speaker 4: Yeah, man, let's go do.
- 2:36:02Speaker 2: This book is out right now, No.
- 2:36:04Speaker 4: September sixteenth, Oh, September sixteenth. This is a fun one
- 2:36:09Speaker 4: that I wrote. It's kind of based on it's called
- 2:36:14Speaker 4: it's based on extra credit. It's kind of relying on
- 2:36:16Speaker 4: fate or extra credit that we get that sometimes we
- 2:36:19Speaker 4: rely on the extra credit participation trophies. It's where this
- 2:36:24Speaker 4: one kind of started from me. So I it's a
- 2:36:27Speaker 4: fun one and it may get us talking about something.
- 2:36:30Speaker 4: It's called tips included, okay, when extra credits included, credit
- 2:36:37Speaker 4: doesn't get its due. When more gives us less, the
- 2:36:40Speaker 4: exchange rate's gone askew. When amnesty is offered going into
- 2:36:46Speaker 4: the crime, we're more bound to commit it. Because there
- 2:36:49Speaker 4: is no fine. We start playing to tie instead of
- 2:36:53Speaker 4: going for the win. When participation's the trophy for every
- 2:36:57Speaker 4: cow in the pen. If I still on the porch
- 2:37:00Speaker 4: because you picked up the slack when you look over
- 2:37:03Speaker 4: your shoulder, I can't have you back. If there is
- 2:37:06Speaker 4: no curfew, we'll stay out all night. No tab at
- 2:37:09Speaker 4: our bar, we get drunken, start a fight. All these
- 2:37:12Speaker 4: long lenses got us losing our sight. You keep lifting
- 2:37:16Speaker 4: it for me. I'm gonna lose all my might. When
- 2:37:19Speaker 4: a four star duty suits a six star rate, we
- 2:37:22Speaker 4: take our hands off the wheel, rely on fate. Eating
- 2:37:26Speaker 4: all we can as all we can eat buffet gives
- 2:37:28Speaker 4: us a three point eight education and a four point
- 2:37:31Speaker 4: two GPA. We steal from ourselves and get away with
- 2:37:35Speaker 4: the scam. What's the measure of merit with less? Give
- 2:37:38Speaker 4: a damn? These unlimited options, rom they sure got me confused.
- 2:37:44Speaker 4: While all the conveniences keep me properly loubed in this
- 2:37:48Speaker 4: red light district with the horror of inflation. The roi's
- 2:37:53Speaker 4: math don't pay for the vacation. So let's just admit it.
- 2:37:57Speaker 4: This extra credit's quite a fluffer because when the tips included,
- 2:38:02Speaker 4: the service will suffer.
- 2:38:05Speaker 2: That's great, that's really good and dead on you, fucking
- 2:38:11Speaker 2: right on the head, perfect fun man.
- 2:38:13Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, I got I think I came win
- 2:38:17Speaker 4: myte The eleventh place team got the same.
- 2:38:21Speaker 8: Sized trophy as the first place team, and I was like,
- 2:38:24Speaker 8: they went oh and ten, but the winning team went
- 2:38:26Speaker 8: ten and oh you kind of like saying, oh, the
- 2:38:28Speaker 8: winning team went five and five and the losing team
- 2:38:31Speaker 8: went five and five.
- 2:38:32Speaker 4: Hey, I don't get it. Don't hurt you, don't hurt
- 2:38:38Speaker 4: the feelings, don't lose, don't get told no.
- 2:38:40Speaker 2: Your feelings have to get hurt sometimes that's how you
- 2:38:42Speaker 2: learn and grow. And you can't protect anybody from that.
- 2:38:46Speaker 2: And that's the problem. We want to do that with
- 2:38:48Speaker 2: our children. With all my best friends, all my favorite
- 2:38:53Speaker 2: people had terrible chaotic childhoods and they all became very
- 2:38:56Speaker 2: interesting people. But I don't want my kids to have
- 2:38:58Speaker 2: a terrible chaotic child have like a wonderful, love filled,
- 2:39:03Speaker 2: you know, bountiful childhood. But that comes with well, I
- 2:39:09Speaker 2: think they have to find things that they uh that
- 2:39:13Speaker 2: they find that are difficult, that they get engrossed with.
- 2:39:16Speaker 2: They they really love to pursue, and fortunately my kids
- 2:39:21Speaker 2: do that. But I think you have to have a struggle,
- 2:39:25Speaker 2: you have to have a task if you just want
- 2:39:27Speaker 2: to like, oh, you get a trophy too, everybody gets
- 2:39:30Speaker 2: a trophy. It's okay, No, there's no losers got hard quit.
- 2:39:34Speaker 2: When my kids were real little, one of my daughters
- 2:39:37Speaker 2: was playing in a soccer game and they didn't They
- 2:39:39Speaker 2: wouldn't say the score, Like, but I know the fucking score.
- 2:39:43Speaker 2: I just watched they lost. This is so crazy. But
- 2:39:51Speaker 2: they were doing this in California. They had like scoreless games.
- 2:39:54Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, I mean, but look, why are you
- 2:39:58Speaker 2: trying to score? Then? Why are you trying to or
- 2:40:00Speaker 2: if you don't count it? This doesn't make any sense.
- 2:40:01Speaker 2: This is soccer.
- 2:40:02Speaker 4: Soccer has aie trying to keep them from scoring.
- 2:40:06Speaker 2: Exactly. What's the point, everybody, what's the rules? Picking up
- 2:40:10Speaker 2: with your hands? This is stupid. If you don't have
- 2:40:14Speaker 2: a loser, you don't have a desire to get better,
- 2:40:17Speaker 2: to become a winner. That's the part of the process.
- 2:40:21Speaker 2: Sometimes kids lose and they cry. And by the way,
- 2:40:23Speaker 2: if you don't ever go through that, then you don't
- 2:40:26Speaker 2: understand how to lose, so you never develop a healthy
- 2:40:31Speaker 2: ability to manage competitiveness. Some people just never get that.
- 2:40:38Speaker 2: They never get healthy competition makes for a very unhealthy
- 2:40:42Speaker 2: person to not be able to just compete.
- 2:40:44Speaker 4: Well, especially once they leave the house. Yes, and they're
- 2:40:48Speaker 4: on their own because the world chair plays by the
- 2:40:50Speaker 4: rules and the score is kept. Yes, and you don't
- 2:40:53Speaker 4: win everyone no matter how good you are. Yes, and
- 2:40:58Speaker 4: there's nobody coming back. I can to tuck you in
- 2:41:01Speaker 4: bed and say it's okay, let's put some ice on it.
- 2:41:04Speaker 2: Your regal man that wake up call, that's cold.
- 2:41:10Speaker 4: I got a cool movie coming out called The Lost Bus.
- 2:41:12Speaker 4: Will be out in October. It's gonna be in theaters
- 2:41:15Speaker 4: for a couple of weeks and it goes on Apple
- 2:41:17Speaker 4: and streams. Remember the Paradise Fires in twenty eighteen in Paradise, California. Yes, yeah,
- 2:41:23Speaker 4: I think I think the numbers thirty people or so died.
- 2:41:27Speaker 4: Jamie Lee Curtis heard this story on NPR and went
- 2:41:31Speaker 4: to Jason Bloom and Jason Bloom went to Paul Greengrass,
- 2:41:33Speaker 4: who was the director of Captain Phillips United ninety three
- 2:41:38Speaker 4: Black Sunday, really good action director but also with a
- 2:41:42Speaker 4: good personal dramatic story in it. And then they came
- 2:41:45Speaker 4: to me for it. And there were a lot of
- 2:41:49Speaker 4: heroic people that at that time that went ran towards
- 2:41:53Speaker 4: the crisis instead of away from the crisis. But this
- 2:41:55Speaker 4: one particular story about this bus driver and this teacher
- 2:42:01Speaker 4: that got twenty two kids to safety was the story
- 2:42:07Speaker 4: we picked to tell, and we went and shot it
- 2:42:10Speaker 4: in Santa Fe. This guy that this guy that I
- 2:42:13Speaker 4: play is Oh, here's the trailer.
- 2:42:20Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not listening to just tell me what the
- 2:42:23Speaker 2: trailers going on.
- 2:42:24Speaker 4: Okay. So this guy, Kevin, and our story comes back
- 2:42:29Speaker 4: home because his dad has passed away and he's going
- 2:42:32Speaker 4: to take care of his widowed mother and try to
- 2:42:35Speaker 4: reunite with his son, which, by the way, check this out, Joe,
- 2:42:38Speaker 4: my mom plays my mom and LEVI.
- 2:42:40Speaker 2: Plays my son. Oh wow, your mom plays me. Well
- 2:42:43Speaker 2: that's cool. Yeah.
- 2:42:44Speaker 4: So he comes back through that and he gets a
- 2:42:46Speaker 4: part time jobs as a school bus driver. He goes
- 2:42:50Speaker 4: out that morning there's a fire coming across the canyon.
- 2:42:53Speaker 4: As they always do, no problem, you know, first responders
- 2:42:57Speaker 4: head out. Well, by the afternoon he had got no
- 2:42:59Speaker 4: out of hand and was jump in the canyon. And
- 2:43:01Speaker 4: so that afternoon as he's now decided, oh shit, I
- 2:43:05Speaker 4: gotta go back and get my mom and my son.
- 2:43:08Speaker 4: Neither one of them even drive get them to safety.
- 2:43:10Speaker 4: All the way home, barging home to go, barge down
- 2:43:12Speaker 4: the highway to go get them. A call comes through dispatch.
- 2:43:16Speaker 4: I got twenty two stranded kids on the east side
- 2:43:18Speaker 4: of town. Is anyone over there at an empty bus?
- 2:43:20Speaker 4: WHOA guess who's got an empty bus? Fuck? I want
- 2:43:26Speaker 4: to go get my mom and my son. Man, but
- 2:43:28Speaker 4: he takes the call and says, I'll go get him.
- 2:43:31Speaker 4: He goes and gets them a teacher. Their teacher gets
- 2:43:34Speaker 4: on the bus, and this is their story of about
- 2:43:36Speaker 4: eight hours of going through hell and how and if
- 2:43:40Speaker 4: they got out of it, and really awesome adrenaline pumped
- 2:43:46Speaker 4: action which you're gonna get from Green Grass and a
- 2:43:47Speaker 4: story like that, like the fire. This is as good
- 2:43:49Speaker 4: as fire movie as there's been. The fires are a
- 2:43:52Speaker 4: fucking predator. It's from the POV it's like Jaws. The
- 2:43:55Speaker 4: fire is actually like the Shark and Jaws in this thing,
- 2:43:59Speaker 4: plus a really cool story of redemption, father sons and uh,
- 2:44:06Speaker 4: you know, two people doing what they can to survive
- 2:44:08Speaker 4: when there were no there were no contact. All the
- 2:44:10Speaker 4: telephone towers are down and the dispatch of town no
- 2:44:13Speaker 4: one had any contact. So he didn't know if his
- 2:44:15Speaker 4: mom and son were okay. He didn't know where to go,
- 2:44:18Speaker 4: where the traffic jams were. And what happened is the
- 2:44:20Speaker 4: first responders left early to go get the fires. When
- 2:44:24Speaker 4: they got there, it had already jumped the canyon. So
- 2:44:26Speaker 4: when they were coming back to town the mandatory evacuation,
- 2:44:30Speaker 4: the whole town's leaving. He couldn't get back in town.
- 2:44:34Speaker 4: So it's a it's a bit of a horror film
- 2:44:37Speaker 4: in that way. But moving on, fire Man, Yeah, that is.
- 2:44:41Speaker 2: What it feels like if you ever get stuck in
- 2:44:42Speaker 2: one of those things, it feels like a monster. Yeah,
- 2:44:46Speaker 2: that sounds awesome.
- 2:44:47Speaker 4: It's that. It's pretty good. It's tough, tough movie, but
- 2:44:51Speaker 4: a good one.
