- 0:00Speaker 1: What happens when you order a dishwasher, but the dishwasher
- 0:04Speaker 1: is so advanced that you fall in love with your dishwasher.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Under the docks, Yeah, under.
- 0:16Speaker 3: The docks, very breaking.
- 0:20Speaker 2: The looks funny.
- 0:23Speaker 3: Could they arise all the shots they connect? The dogs
- 0:27Speaker 3: under the docks, under the ducks, Yeah, under the docks.
- 0:45Speaker 4: Under the Dogs.
- 0:57Speaker 5: Welcome back to Under the Docks.
- 0:59Speaker 6: Paranoida kid Sean Chris, where we watched the doc and
- 1:03Speaker 6: let you know if it sinks or it swims.
- 1:07Speaker 7: Lo and Behold, it's us.
- 1:10Speaker 5: Today, Lo and Behold.
- 1:13Speaker 6: Revises of the Connected World twenty sixteen film by Warner
- 1:18Speaker 6: Hersog and narrated by Werner Hersag. Sometimes I say Werner,
- 1:22Speaker 6: it's Werner. So the etet a santam American. We chop
- 1:26Speaker 6: up names this one to wrap up the month. What
- 1:29Speaker 6: an incredible piece. I mean, you go from DARPA ascerns
- 1:32Speaker 6: to robots taking over the world to Elon Musk on Mars.
- 1:35Speaker 5: It's it's pretty incredible.
- 1:37Speaker 6: Everything that's impact packed up into this ninety ninety five
- 1:42Speaker 6: minute film.
- 1:44Speaker 1: This one is sort of a huge take on Internet
- 1:48Speaker 1: and technology and robotics and just everything from the and
- 1:52Speaker 1: I say with a V. Even though it's a W,
- 1:54Speaker 1: I say with a V. With Werner Herzog his sort
- 1:57Speaker 1: of outlook on technology, you kind of get a glaes
- 2:00Speaker 1: that here. So if you like Berner Herzog, this is
- 2:03Speaker 1: just how he sees the Internet.
- 2:14Speaker 5: Plotting the course.
- 2:16Speaker 6: As you were saying, it's pretty much the Internet and
- 2:18Speaker 6: technology from its creation of the internet to how it
- 2:23Speaker 6: where it's now through the lens of hersaw her song
- 2:28Speaker 6: kind of just like this is my interpretation of it.
- 2:30Speaker 6: He but to his credit, he does a very good
- 2:33Speaker 6: job of finding the right people to interview, finding the
- 2:37Speaker 6: right details that kind of like push the story along
- 2:40Speaker 6: and tell you.
- 2:41Speaker 5: Where it's at. To start it all off, he has.
- 2:44Speaker 6: Ten chapters, right, It's each one a chapter of this
- 2:47Speaker 6: is what's going on, So we're gonna follow it in
- 2:50Speaker 6: that order instead of just taking the claims. There's some
- 2:53Speaker 6: claims in here, but we're gonna more kind of see
- 2:56Speaker 6: what each chapter like kind of like a summary of
- 3:00Speaker 6: what that chapter was trying to tell you, because I
- 3:02Speaker 6: believe he starts from the beginning to end and kind
- 3:05Speaker 6: of like fills in the gaps. So we're gonna go
- 3:08Speaker 6: with the first one, the chapter the early Days where
- 3:11Speaker 6: they overview the creation of the Internet. The first message
- 3:15Speaker 6: ever sent, which was l was it lo GI N
- 3:20Speaker 6: login or whatever? Like they sent part of it and
- 3:23Speaker 6: then said the other part and it was something that
- 3:25Speaker 6: was created in UCLA. But then the ties of DARPA, right,
- 3:32Speaker 6: like then you get the tip like which I was
- 3:34Speaker 6: like wondering are we going to hear that? And I
- 3:37Speaker 6: was the beginning of the movie. It starts out. I'm like, okay,
- 3:40Speaker 6: you got my attention, man, we're talking about DARPA already,
- 3:44Speaker 6: and and and then they introduce how the Internet was
- 3:46Speaker 6: and these huge giant computers and how they were indestructible,
- 3:50Speaker 6: and they don't really go too much into the DARPA thing.
- 3:53Speaker 5: But they do kind of like lay out that format.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I don't even think that's conspiracy theory
- 4:00Speaker 1: at this point that the Internet came from being DARPA funded.
- 4:04Speaker 1: And the guy was impressing on how these machines were
- 4:07Speaker 1: made to last a very long time. They were built
- 4:10Speaker 1: like tanks, because I mean that's what DARPA builds, right,
- 4:14Speaker 1: They build weapons of war that are meant to last
- 4:17Speaker 1: through nuclear holocaust if they have to in some cases,
- 4:20Speaker 1: So that this original and the whole reason why this
- 4:24Speaker 1: documentary is called LO and Behold is that the LO
- 4:28Speaker 1: they were originally trying to say, this is the very
- 4:31Speaker 1: first Internet communication ever where you've got these two different
- 4:35Speaker 1: server computers and one guy is trying to send a message.
- 4:39Speaker 1: It says login, and apparently all you had to do
- 4:42Speaker 1: was type log and the system would know that you're
- 4:46Speaker 1: asking for login.
- 4:47Speaker 7: It was like a shortcut.
- 4:48Speaker 1: But they only send an L and then they sent
- 4:51Speaker 1: an O, and then after the other computer received the O,
- 4:55Speaker 1: it crashed. So the first message of the Internet ever
- 5:00Speaker 1: was l O. And I actually thought that was one
- 5:03Speaker 1: of the more interesting points of this whole documentary is that, like,
- 5:06Speaker 1: our historical record of this monumentous occasion is just in
- 5:10Speaker 1: this little log book. And it technically started on a bug,
- 5:14Speaker 1: right the very first message crashed halfway through, so they
- 5:18Speaker 1: didn't even get to type out the fur L, the
- 5:20Speaker 1: full log. They just got to L O and then crash.
- 5:25Speaker 6: I felt seeing that part that every IT guy in
- 5:28Speaker 6: the world was like, yeah, no one for man, no
- 5:30Speaker 6: wonder never works how it's supposed to work. I mean,
- 5:33Speaker 6: at my work, sometimes you have to turn off the computer,
- 5:35Speaker 6: turn off the label printer, turn the printer back on,
- 5:39Speaker 6: restart the computer, and then it will print like the
- 5:41Speaker 6: ten labels that I kept pressing the button on. So
- 5:43Speaker 6: like it was just kind of incredible of you're like, oh,
- 5:47Speaker 6: this is how technology. It wasn't like, yeah, guys, we
- 5:50Speaker 6: completed it. We're like, oh yeah, a fail, epic fail.
- 5:53Speaker 6: Then they kind of get into the next chapter the
- 5:56Speaker 6: glory of the Internet. They paint like the positive aspects
- 6:00Speaker 6: of what the internet can offer, and he does a
- 6:03Speaker 6: really good job in this movie of comparing contrast in
- 6:06Speaker 6: all of his movies. He does interject, but he does
- 6:09Speaker 6: give enough of each topic and the person's perspective of
- 6:13Speaker 6: how they think of it. They get into a little
- 6:16Speaker 6: bit of the positive benefits and showcase like.
- 6:19Speaker 5: They made a video game that.
- 6:23Speaker 6: Was helping to figure out RNA sequences and how that
- 6:27Speaker 6: you know, if there's only a few of them, but
- 6:29Speaker 6: now there's millions of people across the world that have
- 6:31Speaker 6: actually been able to help and figure out these sequences
- 6:34Speaker 6: that can solve.
- 6:36Speaker 5: The you know, AIDS and cancer.
- 6:37Speaker 6: That's how they preface it as Again, mind you, when
- 6:40Speaker 6: I'm saying a lot of this stuff. This was from
- 6:42Speaker 6: twenty sixteen and it's ten years later and a lot
- 6:46Speaker 6: has not maybe hasn't panned out. How they think it's
- 6:49Speaker 6: going to pan out, right, Like it's dissimilar to like
- 6:52Speaker 6: watching the Jetsons in the seventies or eighties and you're like, oh, dude,
- 6:57Speaker 6: they're about to have flying planes and flying carshere. Bro
- 7:00Speaker 6: Like everybody's going to be flying around in a little
- 7:02Speaker 6: flying spaceship. They also highlight this is something that I
- 7:07Speaker 6: liked is that they highlighted Tim Burns and his creation
- 7:10Speaker 6: of the World Wide Web, another guy that was associated
- 7:15Speaker 6: with a lot of these organizations that were like hmm,
- 7:18Speaker 6: he's associated with coming up with the idea while working
- 7:21Speaker 6: at CERN.
- 7:22Speaker 5: Right.
- 7:23Speaker 6: And then they also start kind of like highlighting about
- 7:26Speaker 6: these autonomous vehicles and how like Harvard and some of
- 7:30Speaker 6: the other Ivy League schools were having these, you know,
- 7:34Speaker 6: challenges of who could make the best autonomous vehicle, and
- 7:38Speaker 6: they painted the picture of how there's so much help.
- 7:40Speaker 5: Like even they have a scene where they have.
- 7:42Speaker 6: These robotics soccer players and they're like, maybe they'll take
- 7:45Speaker 6: over soccer one day, and the guy that's making is like,
- 7:48Speaker 6: this is my favorite robot. He's kind of like messy,
- 7:51Speaker 6: like he's like talking about him like they're real people.
- 7:53Speaker 1: This is Robot number eight. He's kind of a celebrity
- 7:56Speaker 1: around here.
- 7:58Speaker 6: And then I'm going to go on to to me
- 8:01Speaker 6: the dark side of the Internet. So this is where
- 8:04Speaker 6: they kind of get, you know, emotional like, but it's true, right,
- 8:08Speaker 6: like all of this. When I was watching this, I
- 8:10Speaker 6: was like open minded and saying, okay, that makes sense.
- 8:13Speaker 6: They they talk in one instance of the bad parts
- 8:16Speaker 6: of the Internet where some girl I think she had
- 8:20Speaker 6: a mental breakdown and they were gonna put her in
- 8:22Speaker 6: the hospital. The family there, let me recap there talking
- 8:26Speaker 6: to the family of a young sixteen year old that
- 8:29Speaker 6: was having mental issues and they thought she was going
- 8:34Speaker 6: to have to stay in the hospital because she's had
- 8:36Speaker 6: some episodes in the past. She stole the parents car.
- 8:40Speaker 6: Turns out she got into a bad accident. They make
- 8:43Speaker 6: it sound like, I don't know if she got decapitated.
- 8:45Speaker 7: I got a little the cat.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Yeah, she stole Doddy's Porsche and then immediately got decapitated
- 8:51Speaker 1: after she ran into a truck, and uh, yeah, that's
- 8:54Speaker 1: exactly what happened.
- 8:56Speaker 6: And then they come to find out this is the
- 8:59Speaker 6: early days of the Internet, and some dude is like filming.
- 9:03Speaker 6: It took a picture. I'm not sure if it was
- 9:06Speaker 6: a picture of video like to be MYO.
- 9:08Speaker 7: It was the first responder.
- 9:09Speaker 1: It was like one of the first responders showed up
- 9:12Speaker 1: and he recorded and he took he took pictures of
- 9:14Speaker 1: it with his cell phone that was in his pocket.
- 9:17Speaker 7: And this was kind of showing in.
- 9:18Speaker 1: The early days of everyone's got a camera now and
- 9:21Speaker 1: everyone's got an internet connection, and how he just took
- 9:24Speaker 1: it and he sent it to some of his friends
- 9:26Speaker 1: and then hit the internet.
- 9:28Speaker 6: And what hit me in that scene too is just
- 9:30Speaker 6: like you saw a lot of like how people things
- 9:32Speaker 6: affect people differently. So this family saw the video or
- 9:37Speaker 6: photo that was being passed around. And also because the
- 9:41Speaker 6: Internet can be as cesspool of.
- 9:44Speaker 5: Bad people man, shitty people.
- 9:45Speaker 6: I don't know what the other way to explain it,
- 9:47Speaker 6: they were emailing him the stuff about his daughter and
- 9:52Speaker 6: kind of like yeah to get and like, you know,
- 9:54Speaker 6: I don't know, some weirdo found out about the story,
- 9:57Speaker 6: found uh that stuff. It started sending to them and
- 10:00Speaker 6: they get into the cyber bullying aspect of like what
- 10:02Speaker 6: could we do? There's no laws and you know, this
- 10:05Speaker 6: is the wild West, and everybody's kind of like talking
- 10:08Speaker 6: about the Internet as what we kind of know, like
- 10:11Speaker 6: now with all the censorship a lot different in twenty sixteen,
- 10:15Speaker 6: a lot of this stuff. It kind of made me
- 10:17Speaker 6: think of, like wow, the way they're talking and the
- 10:19Speaker 6: mom's like, well, I believe the Internet satan, Like I
- 10:22Speaker 6: believe the Internet is the devil and it's no good
- 10:25Speaker 6: of it, and like I don't want my kids because
- 10:27Speaker 6: it has harmed her so much.
- 10:28Speaker 5: Then they dolve into another side of like video game.
- 10:31Speaker 6: Addicts and people that are just like stuck on the Internet,
- 10:34Speaker 6: and the mental health crisis that it is creating. Because
- 10:38Speaker 6: you've got to imagine social media what has been around
- 10:40Speaker 6: almost ten years at this point in twenty sixteen, I
- 10:43Speaker 6: think Facebook and stuff was two thousand and seven, two
- 10:45Speaker 6: thousand and eight, another darper creation. Might I add that
- 10:50Speaker 6: the social aspect and the mental health of teenagers at
- 10:53Speaker 6: that time is starting to be in question. And they
- 10:55Speaker 6: interview a couple of people about their addiction to video
- 10:57Speaker 6: games and stuff of that nature.
- 11:00Speaker 1: There's so many, like ten different chapters, and each chapter's
- 11:04Speaker 1: got like five or six different topics in it. The
- 11:07Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest fire statements was that
- 11:10Speaker 1: mom from the Decapitated Girl and her her exact quote was,
- 11:17Speaker 1: Internet is a manifestation of the Antichrist. Internet is evil itself,
- 11:23Speaker 1: and it's and even if it's not a physical evil,
- 11:25Speaker 1: it's like the spirit of evil. And now that there's
- 11:28Speaker 1: a spirit of evil, that we all can be influenced
- 11:31Speaker 1: by it. And I was like, man, she should come
- 11:33Speaker 1: on as a guest, like she's right at home on
- 11:36Speaker 1: like any kind of conspiracy theme podcast, right that the
- 11:39Speaker 1: Internet is the Antichrist itself. I thought that was such
- 11:43Speaker 1: a wild and sort of relevant statement. And this isn't
- 11:47Speaker 1: her like this is I can understand her thinking. What
- 11:50Speaker 1: brought her to that is because what happens is the
- 11:53Speaker 1: Internet is so cruel that as soon as this story
- 11:56Speaker 1: got out, people were literally sending them hate mail like
- 11:59Speaker 1: your daughter deserved it and like you should be next,
- 12:01Speaker 1: and all this stuff. And as soon as you hear that,
- 12:05Speaker 1: maybe if you're brand new to the world, you're like,
- 12:07Speaker 1: why would anyone do that? Then someone's like, oh, they're
- 12:10Speaker 1: emails being sent. You're like, oh, oh right, okay, I
- 12:12Speaker 1: know I get it now.
- 12:14Speaker 6: Yeah, it's kind of it's messed up, but you're just
- 12:16Speaker 6: like kind of second nature. Man, especially ten years later
- 12:19Speaker 6: from this film, you're like, oh, you mean Twitter every day?
- 12:22Speaker 5: Like you know what I mean, this is.
- 12:24Speaker 6: See the baseline of Twitter if you started, because I've
- 12:27Speaker 6: had a mini counts of nuked when you start at
- 12:30Speaker 6: the baseline of a new account, like you see all
- 12:33Speaker 6: these murder videos like crazy, like oh guy got shot,
- 12:36Speaker 6: guy getting hit, Like that's like the baseline of Twitter.
- 12:39Speaker 6: So like, yeah, we have devolved a little more since
- 12:42Speaker 6: this film. And another thing that was in this chapter
- 12:46Speaker 6: that I found fascinating is they talk about, you know,
- 12:48Speaker 6: the rise of cyber threats and and they you see
- 12:52Speaker 6: the formulation.
- 12:54Speaker 5: Of the beginning of like, hey guys, you know cyber terrorism.
- 12:57Speaker 6: Like they don't push it too much, but they talk
- 12:59Speaker 6: about Titan Rain, which was a huge cyber attack that
- 13:05Speaker 6: hit the US government, and they kind of focus on it.
- 13:09Speaker 6: The guy I forgot the guy's name, but he's he's
- 13:11Speaker 6: kind of implicating in one line where he's like, yeah,
- 13:13Speaker 6: you know, I mean everything's attached to the nuclear programs
- 13:17Speaker 6: and stuff. It could be hacked and basically just blow
- 13:20Speaker 6: up the world. He doesn't say that I'm paraphrasing, but
- 13:23Speaker 6: that's kind of like where he was pushing it towards well.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Herzov does a really good job in this particular section
- 13:31Speaker 1: of the documentary about making a cohesive narrative without interjecting
- 13:36Speaker 1: his own opinion. He's like letting other people completely in
- 13:39Speaker 1: separate interviews, but like leading you through this thing. So
- 13:43Speaker 1: first he ends up talking to Kevin Mitnick, who is
- 13:47Speaker 1: like the world's acclaim most famous hacker whatever. He's been
- 13:51Speaker 1: referenced in books and TV and movies and all over
- 13:54Speaker 1: the plate, even if you don't know who that name is.
- 13:56Speaker 1: He's worked his way into almost every aspect of popular
- 13:59Speaker 1: culture as like the hacker. And he has an interview
- 14:01Speaker 1: with Kevin Mitnick, and even Mitnick himself is talking about
- 14:05Speaker 1: how easy some of this like quote unquote hacking is
- 14:08Speaker 1: and that even with all his hacking ability. At one
- 14:12Speaker 1: point this is early I think, this isn't like the eighties.
- 14:15Speaker 1: But he ends up call finding out the phone numbers
- 14:18Speaker 1: or something to like FBI agents they are on his case,
- 14:21Speaker 1: and like uses that to figure out who the prosecutor is.
- 14:24Speaker 1: And then now that he knows who the FBI agents
- 14:27Speaker 1: and the prosecutors are, he can find out who they
- 14:30Speaker 1: they know and their friends and their colleagues. And at
- 14:33Speaker 1: one point he just calls someone up and he's like, yeah,
- 14:35Speaker 1: I can't get access to some report, and the person
- 14:39Speaker 1: over the phone just gives him like the username and
- 14:41Speaker 1: password to just log in and look. So like a
- 14:43Speaker 1: large part of that hacking is just social hacking. It's
- 14:47Speaker 1: just like using your social connections to like get all
- 14:50Speaker 1: this different information. And then it goes on to talk
- 14:53Speaker 1: about how this this this program where China was essentially
- 14:58Speaker 1: hacking the United States for three years straight and they
- 15:01Speaker 1: don't know what's happening. They just see a bunch of traffic,
- 15:04Speaker 1: and then slowly they realized, oh, it's this coordinated attack
- 15:07Speaker 1: because now cyber security is part of international policy and
- 15:12Speaker 1: some governments, and that this was them trying to figure out, Okay,
- 15:16Speaker 1: who runs this company, who do they know? Can we
- 15:17Speaker 1: compromise people that they know in order to get to
- 15:19Speaker 1: this top thing? And just imagine that on the corporate scale,
- 15:23Speaker 1: the military scale, just all across everything, and that maybe
- 15:27Speaker 1: China got the lead on us, maybe like we should
- 15:30Speaker 1: have been hacking them before they started hacking us. But
- 15:32Speaker 1: that was one of the cooler moments, was hearing some
- 15:35Speaker 1: of that and the guy keeps going like I can't
- 15:37Speaker 1: really talk about more than this, and even her Zog
- 15:40Speaker 1: is like was this the name of the program, And
- 15:42Speaker 1: the guy's like just nodding silently.
- 15:45Speaker 5: Without but to go back to the hacker party.
- 15:49Speaker 6: That was one of my favorite parts because he actually
- 15:52Speaker 6: they called up Motorola to find like these people's like information,
- 15:56Speaker 6: and he's like talking to the lady and he's like,
- 15:58Speaker 6: you know, like words in and kind of charming her
- 16:01Speaker 6: and getting everything, and she's like, well, actually, I don't
- 16:03Speaker 6: have access to that, and as a matter of fact,
- 16:05Speaker 6: I'll go to our cybersecurity chief and he's like.
- 16:08Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, no, no no.
- 16:10Speaker 6: He's like panicking and she goes to the chief and
- 16:13Speaker 6: he's like, well I talked to her, and he's like
- 16:14Speaker 6: oh man, and he says there's nothing we could do,
- 16:16Speaker 6: and he's like relieve that he's not going to jail.
- 16:18Speaker 5: He thinks he's getting busted.
- 16:20Speaker 6: And the cyber security chief is like, oh, he said,
- 16:24Speaker 6: he'll give you his log in so you could log
- 16:27Speaker 6: in and get this information. It was just like you said,
- 16:31Speaker 6: like it's funny because everything's always thought of as like again,
- 16:35Speaker 6: I love that her say does this in his films
- 16:38Speaker 6: is we have this notion of what we think hackers are, right, like, oh,
- 16:41Speaker 6: they're always yeah, but it's also charm and little human
- 16:45Speaker 6: connections and being able to sway people as just as
- 16:48Speaker 6: much as he's getting into like actual digital system.
- 16:52Speaker 1: They don't mention this in this documentary, but a fairly
- 16:56Speaker 1: popular line of thinking and being like a hackers, you
- 17:00Speaker 1: always focus on the weakest link. And now with all
- 17:03Speaker 1: these you know, two thousand bit encryptions and stuff, that
- 17:07Speaker 1: the weakest link tends to be a human. So now
- 17:10Speaker 1: in order to hack something, you just figure out a
- 17:12Speaker 1: way to get someone to tell you their password and
- 17:14Speaker 1: then the rest of it's easy.
- 17:17Speaker 7: And then the.
- 17:17Speaker 6: Next chapter is life without the Internet. They kind of
- 17:21Speaker 6: focus on like people that are away from you know that,
- 17:25Speaker 6: Uh they have this big piece of land and uh,
- 17:28Speaker 6: they get all the frequencies out of there.
- 17:30Speaker 5: I'm probably butchering how it's done.
- 17:32Speaker 6: But they also focus on this group of people that
- 17:34Speaker 6: claim to have frequency illness and that these frequencies from
- 17:39Speaker 6: the cell phones and internet and I'm guessing even radio
- 17:43Speaker 6: state because I mean it, the cell towers are not
- 17:47Speaker 6: the first frequencies that have been introduced, but maybe those
- 17:49Speaker 6: are higher frequencies whatever, we can niitpick on that, but
- 17:52Speaker 6: they do have a dramatic scene where the ladies like
- 17:54Speaker 6: crying and explaining how at least to the aspect of
- 17:58Speaker 6: if it's real or not. I don't know this illness,
- 18:01Speaker 6: but she really feels like she's affected by it, and
- 18:05Speaker 6: her say even asked her like, what's it called, and
- 18:08Speaker 6: they kind of don't say, and it goes to the
- 18:10Speaker 6: next scene. But it was like people trying to be
- 18:13Speaker 6: off the grid and explaining how technology is ruining their life.
- 18:17Speaker 7: And I got some more insight on this.
- 18:19Speaker 1: They don't mention the exact mechanics of this place or
- 18:24Speaker 1: like a lot of the contexts, but it was Green Bank,
- 18:28Speaker 1: which is in West Virginia, and this specific place is
- 18:31Speaker 1: called the National Radio Quiet Zone or the NRQZ, and
- 18:36Speaker 1: the NRQZ is this place. It's a thirteen thousand square
- 18:40Speaker 1: miles and it's designed specifically to have minimal radio interference
- 18:46Speaker 1: because there's an observatory there and the observatory has these
- 18:50Speaker 1: very sensitive radio telescopes. So originally it was created this
- 18:54Speaker 1: the area so that the radio telescopes wouldn't have interference.
- 18:58Speaker 1: So there's no cell towers out there. You can't get
- 19:00Speaker 1: a cell signal, you can't get like internet unless it's hardwired, essentially.
- 19:05Speaker 1: And what this did is it it ended up having
- 19:08Speaker 1: this weird side effect that the original reason for it
- 19:11Speaker 1: was for scientific you know, telescopes. But because there's no
- 19:17Speaker 1: self towers in that area, then people that have this
- 19:20Speaker 1: this you know, an unknown diagnosis I guess is not
- 19:25Speaker 1: currently recognized by modern science, that they have an over
- 19:29Speaker 1: sensitivity to frequencies and that if they go to this
- 19:32Speaker 1: area that has no radio frequencies then they're fine. And
- 19:36Speaker 1: I don't know if you've ever seen the TV show
- 19:39Speaker 1: Better Call Saul, which is about the lawyer in Breaking Bad.
- 19:43Speaker 1: He's got a brother that's a very successful lawyer and
- 19:46Speaker 1: then he develops this I guess like frequency sensitivity and
- 19:51Speaker 1: has to move away, gets his electricity shut off. He
- 19:55Speaker 1: wears tinfoil hat all the time and like a little
- 19:57Speaker 1: tinfoil shroud. You're not allowed to bring a cell phone
- 20:00Speaker 1: into his house. You got to like put it in
- 20:02Speaker 1: the mailbox outside. So this is like a common theme
- 20:06Speaker 1: that you'll see sometimes, usually as ridicule. It's usually like,
- 20:09Speaker 1: look at this idiot that thinks that microwaves and cell
- 20:12Speaker 1: phones are hurting them. But this lady that you're talking about,
- 20:15Speaker 1: she kind of breaks down crying, and she's basically saying,
- 20:19Speaker 1: you have no idea how inconvenient this is. You think
- 20:22Speaker 1: I don't want to go back to an apartment and
- 20:24Speaker 1: use a microwave and watch TV and talk to my
- 20:27Speaker 1: friends on the phone. And because I guess part of
- 20:30Speaker 1: the thinking is like, oh, you think that you're such
- 20:32Speaker 1: an evolved hippie that you're going to live out into
- 20:34Speaker 1: the woods and have no technology, and now you're going
- 20:36Speaker 1: to complain a technology is so evil that it makes
- 20:39Speaker 1: you physically sick. And these people are like, no, it
- 20:42Speaker 1: really does make us physically sick, and no one recognizes
- 20:45Speaker 1: this as a true illness, And as far as I
- 20:47Speaker 1: can tell, there's no There still isn't a scientific explanation
- 20:52Speaker 1: for what happens in any of this. Just like one
- 20:55Speaker 1: of the ladies that we're talking to, I think she
- 20:58Speaker 1: mentions the Schumann residence isn't called the human resonance. But
- 21:01Speaker 1: she's talking about how you know if you sleep on
- 21:04Speaker 1: the ground and the dirt that the earth is vibrating
- 21:07Speaker 1: at seven point eight three hurts, and that this is
- 21:10Speaker 1: the you know frequency of nature and YadA YadA.
- 21:13Speaker 7: You hear this a lot too.
- 21:15Speaker 1: I think she even says, like they say, like, who
- 21:17Speaker 1: the hell is they that this is like this hippie logic,
- 21:20Speaker 1: But there really is reported effects on you know, nature
- 21:26Speaker 1: and on animals at these certain resonance between like seven
- 21:30Speaker 1: and eight arts, even though there's not any kind of
- 21:32Speaker 1: conclusive scientific and here's how it works and here's why
- 21:35Speaker 1: it works.
- 21:36Speaker 7: So I don't know.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Every time that I think of the better call saulve
- 21:41Speaker 1: version of a guy that can't be around cell phones
- 21:43Speaker 1: because he gets sick, you think mental illness. But then
- 21:46Speaker 1: you see these these people and they're like, no, it's
- 21:48Speaker 1: just very like I'm crying because I'm so inconvenient.
- 21:53Speaker 6: And then he gets into Earthly Invaders dabbles a little
- 21:57Speaker 6: bit because I like how it kind of blends. It's
- 21:59Speaker 6: almost like listening to an album right. Watching his films
- 22:03Speaker 6: is like listening to an album where you're like, oh,
- 22:06Speaker 6: he's setting up, like you know what I'm saying like that,
- 22:08Speaker 6: and it's like a not just an any album, like
- 22:11Speaker 6: classic old albums, like like we talked about like the
- 22:13Speaker 6: Prince Paul, like an album where you're telling a story
- 22:16Speaker 6: because like at the end of that one is that
- 22:18Speaker 6: they're kind of talking about, you know, space invaders and
- 22:21Speaker 6: kind of dabbling with UFOs. I liked how we drags
- 22:24Speaker 6: things together, and then he starts talking about like robots
- 22:28Speaker 6: and autonomous vehicles even more, and how they're gonna take
- 22:32Speaker 6: over human jobs out of necessity, and like they focus
- 22:35Speaker 6: on this one robot and how it will close a
- 22:37Speaker 6: valve so like the nuclear facility in Japan could have
- 22:41Speaker 6: been prevented and that like a human couldn't have been
- 22:43Speaker 6: in there, but a robot could have been in there.
- 22:45Speaker 6: And then it starts getting into this like question that
- 22:49Speaker 6: like now I think we're getting even closer to is
- 22:53Speaker 6: what jobs should robots take over and which robots should
- 22:56Speaker 6: they not? And you know, you get the aspects of
- 22:58Speaker 6: like the people that are like, yeah, robots are going
- 23:00Speaker 6: to take over these jobs. It is what it is,
- 23:02Speaker 6: bro like what are you gonna do? And kind of
- 23:04Speaker 6: like the human aspect of it. They don't dab too
- 23:06Speaker 6: much of like what like they're not talking to workers.
- 23:09Speaker 5: I like, hey, he's taking my union job.
- 23:11Speaker 6: They more put it into the perspective of these super
- 23:13Speaker 6: super dangerous jobs.
- 23:14Speaker 5: That a human couldn't do.
- 23:17Speaker 1: There's one guy too, I can't quote him directly, but
- 23:19Speaker 1: he makes such a good point at the end, and
- 23:22Speaker 1: he's like, what happened and I'm gonna paraphrase what happens
- 23:25Speaker 1: when you order a dishwasher, but the dishwasher is so
- 23:29Speaker 1: advanced that you fall in love with your dishwasher, and
- 23:32Speaker 1: now you like, you don't want your dishwasher to wash
- 23:35Speaker 1: dishes anymore because it has this other deeper fulfillment. Doesn't
- 23:39Speaker 1: that kind of make it a crappy dishwasher, like, even
- 23:42Speaker 1: if it's so good that it's so advanced and it ends
- 23:44Speaker 1: up not washing And he's and I think the point
- 23:47Speaker 1: that they're starting to make is that that once robots
- 23:52Speaker 1: are doing all of these menial and like manual tasks,
- 23:56Speaker 1: it's gonna start with things that we can't do, and
- 23:58Speaker 1: then it's going to think turn into things that we
- 24:00Speaker 1: don't want to do, and then it's going to just
- 24:03Speaker 1: turn into pretty much everything, and it goes into the
- 24:06Speaker 1: And it's weird because this documentary is already what like
- 24:09Speaker 1: six years old or something.
- 24:12Speaker 7: Ten damn dude, six.
- 24:17Speaker 6: But the point that you make is great because what
- 24:19Speaker 6: he said was he said. Hersey asked him like, well,
- 24:23Speaker 6: what about these things, because they were talking about how
- 24:25Speaker 6: it thinks, right, he was saying, oh, well, it's kind
- 24:27Speaker 6: of like they do dream because they're analyzing what dreams are.
- 24:30Speaker 6: And then he's like, oh, well, you know they do
- 24:32Speaker 6: think they're they're analyzing different ways they can move the
- 24:35Speaker 6: valve and how they should shut it off and this,
- 24:37Speaker 6: and then and then he's like, well if they could.
- 24:38Speaker 5: Think, like, does that mean they can love?
- 24:40Speaker 6: And they can He's like, that's when he makes the
- 24:42Speaker 6: comment about the dishwasher and refrigerator, and I think that
- 24:45Speaker 6: takes us into the next chapter.
- 24:47Speaker 5: The artificial intelligence and.
- 24:49Speaker 6: The mindset of it was these people were like, no, no,
- 24:53Speaker 6: they're just going to do these jobs that we need
- 24:55Speaker 6: to do. And they could not even think like, oh,
- 24:57Speaker 6: nobody would fall in love with an ai, do this
- 25:00Speaker 6: with Ai, and then to see where we're at, like
- 25:03Speaker 6: they thought would be farthering some aspects and that other
- 25:06Speaker 6: aspects wouldn't happen. And it is kind of cool to
- 25:09Speaker 6: watch that we're ten years ahead of it and we're like, yeah,
- 25:12Speaker 6: but that.
- 25:12Speaker 5: Didn't pan out how you thought it was gonna pan out.
- 25:15Speaker 6: And they really thought like they get like, you know,
- 25:18Speaker 6: Elon Musk is this is when Elon Musk starts entering
- 25:21Speaker 6: the chat more and more right, like because.
- 25:23Speaker 5: Elon big bat elo. Oh, we got to watch out
- 25:25Speaker 5: for artificial intelligence.
- 25:26Speaker 6: And I think people throw it out there, like cause
- 25:30Speaker 6: you see Elon talking about how we need to do
- 25:32Speaker 6: this and it's it's gonna help us, it's gonna save humanity.
- 25:35Speaker 6: And then some other people are like, yeah, it's like
- 25:37Speaker 6: you know it will help, but what is artificial intelligence?
- 25:41Speaker 6: And from where they thought we're gonna be like they
- 25:44Speaker 6: were like, it's not like it's gonna make music or anything.
- 25:46Speaker 6: And I'm like, oh, really like that, Like they made
- 25:48Speaker 6: a couple of comments in the film that you're like,
- 25:51Speaker 6: we do that now, like you know what I mean,
- 25:52Speaker 6: Like we're able to people have fallen in love and
- 25:55Speaker 6: are actually falling in love with robots and AI. They're like, yeah, right, dude,
- 25:59Speaker 6: why would some of all in love with their fridge?
- 26:01Speaker 6: And then you're like, no, they're not fall in love
- 26:03Speaker 6: with refrigerator. They're falling in love with a fembot that
- 26:05Speaker 6: has an AI persona that has been like developed and
- 26:09Speaker 6: looking how they wanted to look. And it speaks to them,
- 26:11Speaker 6: and they there's people that are talking in their chatbots
- 26:14Speaker 6: right now, like a is the under the docks good
- 26:17Speaker 6: enough for me to watch?
- 26:18Speaker 5: Like this is how I felt.
- 26:19Speaker 6: And then they're communicating with this thing that they're thinking
- 26:22Speaker 6: that is their friend.
- 26:24Speaker 1: It's also wild to see because this is pre Twitter
- 26:28Speaker 1: Elon Musk. In fact, Elon Musk is only here because
- 26:31Speaker 1: he's had a SpaceX and they don't even really play
- 26:35Speaker 1: up his involvement in Tesla, and when they talk about
- 26:38Speaker 1: autonomous driving, they don't even talk to him. They talked
- 26:41Speaker 1: two completely different people. So now watching this ten years
- 26:45Speaker 1: in the future, like Tesla or Elon Musk has got
- 26:49Speaker 1: his fingers in all these different categories that he goes into.
- 26:53Speaker 1: There's like twenty categories, and he tactically could have had
- 26:56Speaker 1: his like even on the Internet bullying one, right, like
- 26:58Speaker 1: Elon Musk is also sort of at the head of
- 27:00Speaker 1: the Internet bullying at this point.
- 27:02Speaker 6: And then they get into the Internet and me where
- 27:04Speaker 6: you know, social media's aspect of it. Because this was,
- 27:07Speaker 6: like I said, like what ten years into the social
- 27:10Speaker 6: media experiment, everybody has an iPhone pretty much or an
- 27:12Speaker 6: Android smartphone in their pocket, and ten years after that,
- 27:16Speaker 6: and it's kind of like a where he's following, like
- 27:19Speaker 6: even in that spend of time of how like you
- 27:22Speaker 6: know the influence, which is even crazier now because I
- 27:25Speaker 6: was like, dude, there wasn't even TikTok back then, so
- 27:28Speaker 6: there was heavy influence, but TikTok found a whole new
- 27:31Speaker 6: way to like really manipulate stuff. And this was the
- 27:35Speaker 6: peak of where we saw like, hey, Facebook could be
- 27:38Speaker 6: dangerous for the youth, or it could be dangerous for
- 27:40Speaker 6: some people that are easily lost from reality, and it
- 27:44Speaker 6: can take you into these dangerous places. It could be
- 27:47Speaker 6: good and positive and through the South this film they
- 27:50Speaker 6: talk about, you know, the double edged sword, and then
- 27:54Speaker 6: they get into the dangers of the overconnection, right like
- 27:57Speaker 6: where they're like people are like overly communicating and getting
- 28:00Speaker 6: too much details and it is turning people's minds into
- 28:04Speaker 6: all craziness.
- 28:05Speaker 5: And I think that's where we're at now, like you can.
- 28:07Speaker 6: Evaluate, like, yah, maybe that's why so many people like
- 28:11Speaker 6: dehumanized people. It started out little where it's some guy
- 28:13Speaker 6: that probably thinks it's funny that I'm going to email
- 28:16Speaker 6: this guy in what twenty fifteen or fourteen whenever this
- 28:20Speaker 6: guy's daughter passed away and was decapitated, and someone put
- 28:24Speaker 6: it up and then someone found the video of it
- 28:26Speaker 6: and was like, hey, let me send it this guy.
- 28:27Speaker 5: It's going to be funny. Now we've created.
- 28:30Speaker 6: These wars right of where there's these people that are
- 28:33Speaker 6: like it is absolutely the devil, I cannot use it.
- 28:37Speaker 5: Or it's like, oh no, it's cool, man, that's a joke,
- 28:39Speaker 5: and like we have this.
- 28:41Speaker 6: Growing hatred amongst each other from what this division we
- 28:44Speaker 6: cause from the Internet.
- 28:46Speaker 1: I think Elon Musk makes one of the better points
- 28:48Speaker 1: in this. And he's talking about AI. And if you
- 28:52Speaker 1: tell AI, hey, make as much money as you can,
- 28:56Speaker 1: you know, like here here, you're an investment computer.
- 28:58Speaker 7: Make as much money as you can.
- 29:00Speaker 1: And he said, like there's a version of AI that
- 29:02Speaker 1: would say, okay, let me short all small business stocks
- 29:05Speaker 1: and go long on sort of like defense stocks, and
- 29:09Speaker 1: then start a war. Make like humans start warring with
- 29:12Speaker 1: each other, because historically this is when these big transfers
- 29:15Speaker 1: of wealth happen. So now all of a sudden, if
- 29:17Speaker 1: AI is learning from Okay, well, how do humans make money? Oh,
- 29:21Speaker 1: humans make money by going the war. Let me start
- 29:23Speaker 1: a war. That this is like a very real logical
- 29:26Speaker 1: outcome of just letting them kind of.
- 29:29Speaker 7: Take the wheel a little bit.
- 29:30Speaker 1: So that one was a kind of a poignant observation
- 29:33Speaker 1: by him.
- 29:34Speaker 6: And I'm going to wrap up because there's I know,
- 29:36Speaker 6: there's a lot, because like you said, there's like ten
- 29:38Speaker 6: chapters and there's like five to six. But it's it's
- 29:41Speaker 6: crazy how like you're getting It's not overloaded, but it's
- 29:44Speaker 6: just so much stuff and it runs actually pretty smooth.
- 29:46Speaker 6: But the last two chapters are Surveillance Culture, the Price
- 29:50Speaker 6: of Connectivity, and the future. So like this is when
- 29:54Speaker 6: you're seeing like not the peak yet, we're starting to
- 29:56Speaker 6: get there. But by twenty sixteen, the survey Island State
- 30:00Speaker 6: was up and running, right, Like, this is a big deal.
- 30:03Speaker 6: This is Snowed in time telling us about the NSA
- 30:06Speaker 6: and what they're not only just saving videos and.
- 30:11Speaker 5: Phone calls of us. We have audio, and it's only
- 30:14Speaker 5: stepped even more.
- 30:15Speaker 6: I'm sure, like as we all have our cameras right now,
- 30:17Speaker 6: we have to put our shield down every now and then.
- 30:19Speaker 5: This is like kind of the beginning stages of that.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Well, what they're talking about is metadata, and that's what
- 30:25Speaker 1: Snowden was talking about. Metadata, And it sounds so abstract,
- 30:29Speaker 1: maybe for like a nefarious reason that it's abstracted. But
- 30:34Speaker 1: metadata is like if you don't tell the computer who
- 30:39Speaker 1: you are. If you think you're anonymous, you know, heavy
- 30:42Speaker 1: air quotes, you think you're anonymous online, you still have
- 30:46Speaker 1: certain types of behavior. You're gonna have some kind of
- 30:48Speaker 1: a fingerprint in how long it takes you to type,
- 30:51Speaker 1: and the types of different sites you open up, how
- 30:53Speaker 1: many you open up, how quickly you read them and
- 30:55Speaker 1: close them. All those different tiny little metrics start to
- 31:00Speaker 1: together and form sort of a fingerprint for you. So
- 31:02Speaker 1: even if you think you're anonymous, you can use all
- 31:06Speaker 1: this other metadata to sort of pinpoint maybe not you
- 31:09Speaker 1: down to the individual person, but at least to like
- 31:13Speaker 1: a generalized group of like here's the type of person
- 31:16Speaker 1: you are. So no matter how hard you try to
- 31:18Speaker 1: become anonymous, all this metadata is going to follow you around,
- 31:21Speaker 1: even if you're using VPNs and like air gap thing
- 31:25Speaker 1: like everything across the board. And this this not in
- 31:28Speaker 1: this documentary, but this one I like to like into
- 31:31Speaker 1: how everyone's like I'll never get the mark of the
- 31:33Speaker 1: beast man, I'll never get the chip.
- 31:35Speaker 7: Right in the in the eighties and nineties, it was.
- 31:37Speaker 1: About there, the government's gonna chip you, and they're gonna
- 31:39Speaker 1: track you with these chips. But then if we just
- 31:41Speaker 1: get a phone, like now we just carry the chip
- 31:44Speaker 1: with us just in our pocket instead of inside our phones,
- 31:47Speaker 1: but having it on you like most people's phones and
- 31:52Speaker 1: like smart watches. They're analyzing your heartbeat, how fast you're walking,
- 31:56Speaker 1: how far you're walking, where you're going, like.
- 31:58Speaker 7: So all of that is the metadata.
- 32:00Speaker 1: So even if it's not allowed to track that, this
- 32:03Speaker 1: is paranoid American walking right now. They can pretty much
- 32:06Speaker 1: figure out who you are just based on your movement
- 32:08Speaker 1: and your activity. And that they really they hone in
- 32:12Speaker 1: at the end of this documentary how all that extra
- 32:14Speaker 1: metadata is going to be the thing that identifies you
- 32:17Speaker 1: even if you think you're being anonymous.
- 32:28Speaker 6: Hidden treasures and overboard moments. I'm gonna let you start,
- 32:32Speaker 6: but there is this is another man. I just think
- 32:36Speaker 6: her sage gotta give him. It's I'm gonna be given
- 32:38Speaker 6: so much profits because there's nothing, but there's a lot
- 32:43Speaker 6: of treasures you could go on. We could do a
- 32:45Speaker 6: whole series of the treasures just in this film.
- 32:49Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I didn't go through the chapter by chapter.
- 32:52Speaker 1: I just made a list of all the different topics
- 32:55Speaker 1: that he's able to go through, and mind you, he's
- 32:57Speaker 1: able to weave these so that one leads in to
- 33:00Speaker 1: the next, and it almost has this narrative. So I'd
- 33:02Speaker 1: say that the ultimate hidden treasure is how he's able
- 33:05Speaker 1: to create. And these are the different ones he goes
- 33:08Speaker 1: through in order. He goes from RNA to driving cars,
- 33:11Speaker 1: to soccer to a decapitated girl, to astronomy and the
- 33:15Speaker 1: guy that lives out in the middle of nowhere to
- 33:18Speaker 1: Internet addiction, and then he starts talking about solar flares
- 33:21Speaker 1: and how the world might end if we lose all
- 33:23Speaker 1: this technology, hacker con anonymity versus being tracked, SpaceX dreams,
- 33:30Speaker 1: and then also the very last thing they start talking
- 33:32Speaker 1: about at the end is how these guys are using
- 33:37Speaker 1: MRI machines and they're using it to analyze your thoughts
- 33:41Speaker 1: and your dreams. And they even show you, and this
- 33:44Speaker 1: is in twenty sixteen. Again, they're showing you what they
- 33:46Speaker 1: have at this moment in time, and they make this
- 33:49Speaker 1: claim that whether you are silently thinking about something, or
- 33:56Speaker 1: if you're watching a video of it, or if you're
- 33:58Speaker 1: daydreaming about it, that the neural pathways that light up
- 34:02Speaker 1: are similar enough that it doesn't matter whether you're reading
- 34:06Speaker 1: about it or seeing a video or daydreaming, that the
- 34:09Speaker 1: sequence of events that they can map in your head
- 34:12Speaker 1: are letting them know, like, oh, you're thinking about a
- 34:15Speaker 1: pack of elephants walking by or something like, they will
- 34:17Speaker 1: actually know that just based on your MRI readings.
- 34:20Speaker 7: And he makes this claim that telepathy.
- 34:23Speaker 1: The only difference between what they're doing in telepathy is
- 34:26Speaker 1: that what they're doing they can only read it within millimeters.
- 34:30Speaker 7: But if you were to be able to read.
- 34:31Speaker 1: It from feet away or from miles away, Now all
- 34:35Speaker 1: of a sudden, we're talking about legitimate telepathy, and that
- 34:38Speaker 1: the only difference between all of this is just how
- 34:41Speaker 1: far the science has brought us.
- 34:43Speaker 7: And he makes another.
- 34:44Speaker 1: Claim that how sci fi usually misses the biggest innovations ever,
- 34:48Speaker 1: like none of the sci fi books, And you brought
- 34:51Speaker 1: this up earlier on, but we're all waiting for you know,
- 34:54Speaker 1: driving cars, and you know, Jetson's kind of stuff, and
- 34:57Speaker 1: we don't have that. We don't have like a rosy
- 34:59Speaker 1: c our clothes and like a little robot assistant yet.
- 35:03Speaker 1: But what we do have is the Internet, and none
- 35:05Speaker 1: of the old sci fi stories necessarily honed in on
- 35:09Speaker 1: something as important as the Internet.
- 35:12Speaker 6: Yeah, they didn't feel the key, like right, the key
- 35:14Speaker 6: thing into I'm glad you said the Internet because one
- 35:17Speaker 6: of my hidden treasures, because I could go on forever.
- 35:19Speaker 6: But I wanted to put something because it kind of
- 35:21Speaker 6: made you said this before, Like you know, I like
- 35:23Speaker 6: when it teaches me something or shows me, which there's
- 35:26Speaker 6: a lot that it showed me. But one thing I
- 35:28Speaker 6: never heard about was Ted Nelson and his different concept
- 35:33Speaker 6: of the Internet and like how he was like more
- 35:36Speaker 6: talking about the concept of hypertext and he was super
- 35:39Speaker 6: super duper about this. Like I really liked how he
- 35:43Speaker 6: kind of like had a different approach because I've never
- 35:45Speaker 6: really thought about it. I've only thought about like, oh,
- 35:47Speaker 6: the Internet's created, that's what. But yeah, of course there
- 35:50Speaker 6: would be other people, like even if you go from
- 35:52Speaker 6: Tesla and Edison, right, the two different types of ways
- 35:55Speaker 6: of getting to the same problem. And you know, I
- 35:58Speaker 6: wanted to know more about him, so I'm going to
- 36:00Speaker 6: research more and more about him because it talks about
- 36:02Speaker 6: like his you know, ambitions. It's still to this day,
- 36:06Speaker 6: he's like no, this is the wrong way. He's mad
- 36:08Speaker 6: about the copy and paste. He's like, that's not the
- 36:11Speaker 6: way you do what he wanted. But his concept is
- 36:13Speaker 6: how we got hyperlinks, right, that's what like they talk about.
- 36:17Speaker 6: And his to me is like the definition of innovation
- 36:22Speaker 6: of where you have somebody that has an alternative perspective,
- 36:25Speaker 6: but instead of collaborating with him throughout history, we steal
- 36:29Speaker 6: some of the good ideas, toss them aside and make
- 36:32Speaker 6: them look crazy, and then they're just still there.
- 36:35Speaker 5: Because he has the quote of like.
- 36:36Speaker 6: You know, well, some people say, you know, doing the
- 36:38Speaker 6: same thing over and over again as insanity, he's all,
- 36:41Speaker 6: but also there's it's if you first don't succeed, try
- 36:44Speaker 6: and try and try again. He's like, I prefer the latter.
- 36:47Speaker 6: So it's almost like inspiring to see someone like that
- 36:50Speaker 6: that has still had that completely idea that he was
- 36:54Speaker 6: there for the birth of it and they went to
- 36:56Speaker 6: a totally different direction, and he's still sticking to his guns, like.
- 37:00Speaker 5: No, man, this is the right way to do it.
- 37:02Speaker 7: Yeah, I didn't.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Fully, I'm not going to pretend like I totally understand
- 37:06Speaker 1: what his approach to the Internet is because I've been
- 37:10Speaker 1: bombarded by the only one that actually exists out there.
- 37:13Speaker 7: But what his use case for it was the Bible. Right.
- 37:16Speaker 1: He's showing how between the actual like nicean text versus
- 37:21Speaker 1: the apocrypha, how one story in the accepted Saint James
- 37:25Speaker 1: ends here, but then it continues in this other book,
- 37:28Speaker 1: and then after that story ends, you can go back
- 37:30Speaker 1: to the main book. And he's using that as his
- 37:32Speaker 1: original idea for these links and these hypertext is that,
- 37:37Speaker 1: and this is my understanding, is that, And he starts
- 37:40Speaker 1: ranting about people shouldn't be copying and pasting. That's not
- 37:43Speaker 1: the way it works, because the way the internet works
- 37:45Speaker 1: now is that someone will be like, okay, let me
- 37:47Speaker 1: grab that section of the Bible and put it on
- 37:49Speaker 1: this web page and explain how it connects to this
- 37:52Speaker 1: other thing. And it's like, no, you shouldn't be making copies.
- 37:54Speaker 1: You should just be linking to the original things. So
- 37:57Speaker 1: now when anyone goes to the original thing, then it's like,
- 38:01Speaker 1: and here's all these things that link to it, versus
- 38:04Speaker 1: here's a million different takes on this exact same topic
- 38:07Speaker 1: that only very a little bit here and there.
- 38:09Speaker 7: So I don't fully understand.
- 38:11Speaker 1: How you would have rolled out the Internet as the
- 38:14Speaker 1: way that he's describing it. But yet he definitely has
- 38:17Speaker 1: a completely different perspective on how all this works, and
- 38:21Speaker 1: I'm positive in his head, I'm sure it works way better.
- 38:24Speaker 1: But you know, just like we saw with the General
- 38:27Speaker 1: Magic movie, sometimes having the right idea, if you're ahead
- 38:32Speaker 1: of time, it's maybe even worse than being behind the times.
- 38:44Speaker 5: Is that time around sink or swim?
- 38:50Speaker 1: I'll start it off. I think that spoiler. All these
- 38:53Speaker 1: are good, So this one's another swim for me. Although
- 38:56Speaker 1: out of the three we watched, I think it's I
- 39:00Speaker 1: like Grizzly Man the most, followed by Cave of Forgotten
- 39:03Speaker 1: Dreams and follow by this one, Lo and Behold, But man,
- 39:07Speaker 1: I feel so spoiled. Like watching this one, it was
- 39:09Speaker 1: like I've had too much lobster. I don't know, maybe
- 39:12Speaker 1: I'm a little full on lobster at this point, right,
- 39:14Speaker 1: and then the next day you wake up and you're like, oh,
- 39:16Speaker 1: there's only cold pizza in the fridge. Man, what about
- 39:19Speaker 1: those days when I was turning down lobster? Right, So
- 39:22Speaker 1: it's a it's a swim in that case, but it
- 39:26Speaker 1: maybe doesn't hold up to the same interest level but man,
- 39:30Speaker 1: as soon as this documentary ended, I went and I
- 39:33Speaker 1: checked the time code again. I'm like, I don't know
- 39:35Speaker 1: how Werner is able to take all this information and
- 39:40Speaker 1: craft it in such a clever way and do it
- 39:42Speaker 1: ninety minutes like every damn time. And it just makes
- 39:46Speaker 1: me think of all the documentaries we've watched are like
- 39:48Speaker 1: two or three times the length of this one that
- 39:50Speaker 1: don't even say a tenth of what he gets into.
- 39:53Speaker 1: So it's it's sort of a masterclass and here's here's
- 39:57Speaker 1: what a documentary looks like.
- 40:00Speaker 6: He's gonna get the trifecta for me as well. That's
- 40:02Speaker 6: three swims in a row. I don't know if it's
- 40:04Speaker 6: the only one, but I would say there are all
- 40:06Speaker 6: Michael Phelps and it's like comparing, like I would put
- 40:10Speaker 6: one the low and behold slightly up over Grizzly Man.
- 40:15Speaker 6: But like it's close. Man, it's hard to because I
- 40:17Speaker 6: like both of them because but for different reasons, right, Like,
- 40:20Speaker 6: but they both have that aspect what a great filmmaker. Man.
- 40:24Speaker 6: I think this film exploring like the different aspects of
- 40:28Speaker 6: the Internet, Like I like how he focuses on the
- 40:30Speaker 6: human aspect of it, Like even when he's talking about
- 40:32Speaker 6: the guys with the MRI machine and they're they're talking
- 40:35Speaker 6: about dreams, and they're talking about like, oh man, you
- 40:37Speaker 6: never know some of my inventive little headset that we
- 40:39Speaker 6: could put on and then we could just read each
- 40:41Speaker 6: other's minds, you know what I mean? Like the endless possibilities.
- 40:44Speaker 6: He gets these these people and he brings out something
- 40:48Speaker 6: I don't think everybody can do like this is a
- 40:50Speaker 6: true master classman. He's in a class of his own.
- 40:54Speaker 6: This is probably my favorite filmmaker right now. It's it's
- 40:57Speaker 6: gonna be tough to beat because you get so much
- 41:00Speaker 6: great shots with a great narrative. He has the even
- 41:03Speaker 6: though they make fun of him, but when you're good
- 41:04Speaker 6: at shit, that's how you get made fun of. He
- 41:06Speaker 6: has the perfect narrator voice, the perfect pattern of how
- 41:09Speaker 6: he explains things. He puts a human touch to this.
- 41:14Speaker 6: I would say, hands down to my best filmmaker so far.
- 41:26Speaker 6: On the horizon, what do we got next?
- 41:29Speaker 5: Not sure?
- 41:30Speaker 6: But what we do got next is you could go
- 41:32Speaker 6: to Paranoid American dot com and kill the Mockingbirds dot
- 41:34Speaker 6: com and get you some merch heehaw.
- 41:39Speaker 1: Well, I can tell you what's coming next. It's gonna
- 41:41Speaker 1: be Waco Month. We're gonna be talking about three or
- 41:44Speaker 1: maybe four or maybe five different Waco documentaries, and we're
- 41:48Speaker 1: gonna get to the bottom of this whole thing and
- 41:50Speaker 1: figure it out.
- 41:52Speaker 6: Don't worry, We'll watch the doc and let you know
- 41:53Speaker 6: if it sinks or swim. This is under the docks piece.
- 42:03Speaker 2: Under the dogs.
- 42:05Speaker 7: Yeah, under the dogs.
- 42:08Speaker 3: Very people, we're breaking the locks. Funny could they erasele
- 42:13Speaker 3: the shots? They got the dogs?
- 42:16Speaker 2: Under the dogs, Under the dogs, Yeah, under the dogs,
- 42:34Speaker 2: Under the dogs. Chess by sothing, chess by solthing from.
- 42:55Speaker 5: Perian you're American, Jesus by song.
- 43:03Speaker 3: Just buy something.
- 43:05Speaker 5: From hearing, nor American.

- 43:14Speaker 4: need that.

- 44:06Speaker 4: you're the flight of the plane, tap with the highs
- 44:08Speaker 4: of blaze, somewhat of an amazing feel. When it's real,
- 44:12Speaker 4: the real, you will engage in your favorite the pouse,
- 44:14Speaker 4: the lord of an arrangement. I gave you the proper
- 44:17Speaker 4: results to hit the pavement.
- 44:19Speaker 7: If they get emotional hate.
- 44:20Speaker 4: Maybe your language the game, how they playing it well
- 44:23Speaker 4: without lake's evaded, and whatever the costs they are.
- 44:26Speaker 7: The shape ship.
- 44:27Speaker 4: Thanks get to cappeltated that it is the apex executional flame.
- 44:31Speaker 4: You walt lookular bombs distributedy war rather gruesome.
- 44:35Speaker 5: For eyes to see.
- 44:36Speaker 4: Max him out that I light my trees blowing off
- 44:39Speaker 4: in the face. You're despising me for what thought calculated
- 44:42Speaker 4: that rather cutthroat perinoid American must be all the blunt
- 44:46Speaker 4: spoke for real, Lord, give me your day, your wave,
- 44:48Speaker 4: bake cake. They wait around that hate whatever they say, Man,
