What it do, what it do, what it do?
0:05
It is your boy Andrew Schultz. They gave Mr. Goody 2 shoes and
0:08
who am I with? As always, Joseph Huggins AKA
0:11
old man Huggy. Talk shit or get off the pod.
0:15
Episode 180 South African bride. Welcome, motherfuckers.
0:26
You're all choppy bro, you got that choppy chop connection.
0:30
It's already saying my Internet connection is unstable.
0:33
I don't what I maybe it's like where I'm at my house.
0:36
I don't even get it. Do you have a router or are you
0:38
like on the Wi-Fi, the Wi-Fi bro, you got to just, you got to
0:42
get just an Ethernet cable and just you can get my like flat
0:46
white ones and just run it from there and you can just plug it
0:50
in directly. Well, it's all the way in the
0:51
garage. Yeah, I mean, I got one that's
0:54
like 150 feet. They're like they're like 20
0:56
bucks because you've been choppy, sloppy, but it's all
1:03
good. It willpower through.
1:05
OK. But what's up, man?
1:09
What's going on? Same old shit took three days
1:14
off last week, it was magical. And then went to some work event
1:19
to the horse races for the Preakness and watched a bunch of
1:24
people gamble on horses. Journalism One.
1:31
Got a bunch of fucking sleep, bunch of sleep, which has been
1:36
fantastic. And in my backyard they're
1:38
putting this fence up. It's going to be a fortress,
1:41
bro. I'll send you a picture.
1:42
It's like almost a 10 foot tall fence.
1:44
It's epic. So it's not finished, but I've
1:47
just got mad steel pipes just like wrapped around my backyard.
1:53
And then it'll be some big fuck off privacy fence.
1:56
I'm really excited about it 'cause you got a lot of MAGA
1:59
neighbors and people that always are watching what the fuck I'm
2:02
doing when I'm doing yard work. Like, is he the help?
2:05
I'm like, no, I'm the homeowner. So it'll be nice to have a fence
2:10
nicer than everybody else around me.
2:12
You know, just keeping up with the Joneses.
2:14
I'm just the Jones you got to keep up with, you know what I'm
2:16
saying? Yeah.
2:20
No, it's there are times where I'll be like, I think I've said
2:24
it before in the pub where I'm outside doing yard work and they
2:26
like walk out arbitrarily, you know, like acting like they're
2:30
watering their bushes and there's like no Bush there.
2:32
They're just like spraying water on their driveway, like watching
2:35
me. And then they go back inside
2:36
when they realize I'm, I notice them.
2:40
So it'll be nice to have my big fence up, have you know, a
2:45
little bit of space, staying the fuck out of my yard.
2:48
And obviously my voice is better.
2:50
Yay. Yesterday is the best I've felt.
2:57
So like 9 days I was just a shit show.
3:00
Like everything hurt, my voice was gone, I was raspy as shit.
3:04
And now, now it's back man yay. Just some time for my work
3:08
presentation today. Nice, which no one wants to hear
3:13
me talk because but so I did a good job.
3:16
But they're like, all right, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up,
3:17
hurry up. You did a good job.
3:20
What was it about? Oh, I guess it doesn't.
3:22
Matter presenting numbers and stuff.
3:25
I mean, we all everyone does a good job, but you know, I'm just
3:30
a character and I got jokes and I troll while I'm doing it.
3:33
So you know, they don't they don't like it all the time got.
3:37
You. You know, gotta keep it fresh.
3:40
How are you, Sir? What's new with you?
3:43
I'm good, just been chilling. I was up in the studio, Splash
3:49
Pad Studios over the weekend. I.
3:51
Was going to say dude you hit me with some links on some fire
3:54
bangers and you've been posting them like crazy.
3:56
Please elaborate. Well, I was writing a song.
4:02
A sad song. Well, as you know, whatever.
4:07
And so I was kind of just trying to figure out like it was
4:12
supposed to be like a country song.
4:14
And then then I just started like working on like some music
4:19
and then I like got this like thing where you can get vocals
4:26
like you can, you can get like AAI vocal to spit your lyrics or
4:31
whatever. So I made a song and then got
4:36
like the AI to say the lyrics on it and came out of straight
4:43
banger. And then I was just like
4:44
inspired. And then I just started just
4:46
like I stayed up like all night, like just making music like all
4:51
weekend. Well.
4:54
That's good. That's good.
4:55
It's productive Trump and bangers.
4:58
AI bangers and the AI music cracks me up though.
5:01
Like the AI country songs that are just like trolling ass
5:05
country songs are so funny. They're so funny.
5:08
Well, see, this is, I mean, this is like AI, like just like using
5:12
the shit that I'm telling it to do.
5:13
It's not like coming up with like the music, you know?
5:17
No, I think some people like write these songs that are like,
5:19
Hey, country sing this song and they're just absolutely absurd,
5:24
like sing this song like XYZ or make this song dah dah dah.
5:28
I mean, you can do a lot with the AI man.
5:32
That's that's the AI stuff I like.
5:35
That's sort of like this is great.
5:36
This is a good tool for just like goofing off or being
5:39
creative and doing stuff, you know, but I don't think they
5:41
should, you know, be in control of the world.
5:46
Some people would disagree. Any poker tails or?
5:52
I went like didn't go well for me.
6:00
Like I caught like top pair kings.
6:06
Then the third king comes out. So I have trips at King Jack the
6:12
Sasso at king 10 and a 10 comes out and so he got a full house.
6:18
Yeah, 6% chance to win that hand that guy had.
6:23
So do you crunch? Do you crunch those numbers like
6:25
in your head where you're like, you know, like the percentage
6:29
chance that they have of winning it versus like what you have?
6:33
Yeah. OK, 'cause you always see that
6:36
whenever you're like watching poker and they're like, oh, they
6:39
got this percent chance or this percent chance.
6:41
Well, it's like it's called expected value.
6:43
So if this is how you can make decisions at the poker table.
6:47
So let's say there's $50.00 in the pot.
6:56
If somebody bets $10, that's 20 or not ten.
7:04
Let's see, hold on 50. OK, let's say there's $50.00 in
7:12
the pot, somebody bets. Yeah.
7:18
OK, well, I'm trying to think, OK, so like a flush drop, for
7:22
example, if you have a flush drop after the flop, you have a
7:25
36% chance to hit it on the turn of the river, OK?
7:32
So if, if somebody, OK, so there's $50.00 in the pot or is
7:38
there, OK, how about this, there's $150.00 in the pot.
7:40
Somebody that's 50 that's a that's so there's 200 now,
7:49
right? I'm getting 4 to one on my
7:53
money. If I if I call with 50, right?
7:56
Because if I bet 50, I'm betting 50 to get $200 because there's
8:00
$200 in there. Now because there's 150 in
8:03
there, the guy bet 50. So my decision is do I want to
8:08
put $50.00 in to make a $200 based on a flush draw?
8:14
Well, if I'm getting 4 to one on my money and I only have and I
8:17
have a 36% chance to hit it, if you play that hand a million
8:24
times, you'll, you'll make money right 'cause you're getting 4 to
8:29
1. So if it, so like basically you
8:31
want to get to at least three to one.
8:35
If it's, if it's that, if you, if you have a 33% chance to hit
8:39
it, you want to have make three times as much that's breaking
8:42
even. So anything more than that it's
8:45
a good bet. Anything less, fold.
8:50
OK, that makes sense. I've just always wondered that,
8:53
'cause you'll see, like I said, the percentages pop up.
8:56
I know there's got to be some sort of like internal numbers
8:59
crunching that happens. Well, then I thought I told you
9:02
like how you do it, right. So figure out how many cards are
9:07
that, like let's say you're on like to make your hand, right,
9:11
How many cards are left in the deck?
9:15
So it depends on how many players are at the table.
9:18
So like with, oh, it doesn't really matter how many people
9:21
are at the table. OK, so with a flush drive, the
9:23
reason why I know it's 36%, there's nine.
9:26
So there's 13 cards at each suit, right?
9:29
So if you're on a flush drive, that means there's four of that
9:33
suit that's already out there, right?
9:35
Somewhere either on the board or in your hand.
9:37
So that means 4 -, 13, there's nine, let's say they're
9:41
diamonds. There's nine diamonds left
9:42
somewhere. They could have been dealt out
9:44
to somebody. They could be in the burn, they
9:46
could be at the bottom of the deck, the top of the deck.
9:47
You don't know where they are, they're just out there.
9:50
There's nine diamonds left. So if after the flop, if you
9:56
whatever, however many cards that you are, that would make
9:59
your hand times that by 4 and that's the percentage that of it
10:06
to come out and then after the turn times it by two.
10:09
So if you're on a flush draw and all that's left is the river,
10:14
you have an 18% chance to hit it.
10:17
OK. OK.
10:20
That makes sense. Interesting.
10:23
Yeah. That's where I, I feel like
10:27
that's where I lose it all the time.
10:29
Is I'm just like, yeah, well, I just, I'm like, I'm just going
10:31
to roll with it. Well, yeah, I'm too, I'm, I'm
10:33
too, too committed to this pot to not keep going.
10:36
Right. And then there's, I mean,
10:38
there's the whole other aspect is like depends who you're
10:40
playing against. You know, it's like, you know,
10:42
you might make certain decisions, you might like gamble
10:45
a little bit more based upon like how loose this game is or
10:49
how tight it is, you know, whatever it is.
10:51
Yeah, yeah, I got you. That's pretty cool.
10:55
I'll I'll keep you updated. I need to get into this this dad
10:59
this all dad poker game, this like, you know, early 50s guy
11:05
poker game and see how it goes. Supposed to have one sometime
11:09
next month. So when they pick it back up.
11:12
So I'm going to try to go go play.
11:14
I I've always wanted to do some sort of poker live stream, but
11:22
it's like a house game and you would set up like a, a studio in
11:27
like a room and you could have a table and like have the works
11:31
and just have random people on, like random motherfuckers on
11:36
have a couple regulars and then have have different people on
11:39
all the time and make it like a poker game slash, like, you
11:42
know, conversation. So podcast slash just live
11:46
stream. I always thought that would be a
11:47
cool idea. You know, You know, they do that
11:51
with like celebrities and stuff, but it's always like poker stars
11:54
or something. But find like some random Joe
11:57
Schmo motherfuckers and have them on and play cards.
12:00
Obviously they have to sign some waivers and shit, but I've
12:02
always thought that could be pretty fucking cool.
12:05
You'd have to keep the locale under wraps though, so you don't
12:07
get you know, or get raided. Or you could just film it in
12:11
Vegas. True, but I mean, no, it'd be
12:16
cool if it was like, oh, we're not supposed to do that here,
12:18
but we're doing it anyways. Well, how sustainable is that?
12:22
Decently use AVPN. You know it's possible.
12:27
Any. In the new words of Kevin
12:28
Garnett, anything is possible. No.
12:31
OK, Kevin. Like the Eagles going
12:33
back-to-back Big facts shout out.
12:38
You want to get into these therapy questions?
12:42
You ready? Ready, spaghetti.
12:47
All right, therapy question #1 should we be more worried about
12:51
leaving the planet or saving the planet because that, you know,
12:55
we hear Elon Musk talk about we got to go to Mars.
12:58
Oh, we got to do this or all the planet.
13:00
The sun's going to burn out, or the sun's going to explode and
13:03
we're all going to die, which is millions, hundreds of millions
13:07
of years away. But either way, what do you
13:09
think is more pivotal to the survival of the human race?
13:12
Saving this planet or getting the fuck out?
13:16
Well, like the Mars thing is stupid as fuck, like 'cause if
13:21
we can, if we, if we can fix Mars to the point where we can
13:25
live there, then we can fix the the Earth.
13:28
So we can just stay here. Makes no sense.
13:31
But like, if like the sun was going to explode and that's the
13:34
only reason, Like that's why Earth's going to die or what,
13:38
not be habitable. Yeah, then I'm obviously about
13:43
get the fuck out of here. But I get like, I'm saying like
13:48
the same things we would need to do to figure out how to live on
13:51
Mars, you could just do here. So it's like not one or the
13:55
other. See, yeah, I feel like saving
13:58
the planet is more important than it is being worried about
14:02
leaving. Because let's say the sun lives
14:05
out its life cycle and explodes and dies.
14:07
Number one will be way far gone by the time that happens.
14:10
Human civilization might have died out before that fucking
14:13
happens. There's probably a higher
14:15
likelihood of that happening than it is for humans to see the
14:20
sun explode or burnouts where we don't have any more like
14:23
sunlight and it becomes like a cold, desolate ice planet.
14:27
Like there's the likelihood of a human seeing that is has to be
14:33
so small on a scale, like on a percentage scale of us even
14:38
being alive to see that because that's honestly like hundreds of
14:41
millions of years away. Like they when they talk about
14:43
it or Elon Musk talks about it, it's kind of fucking stupid
14:48
because it's way far away. So I feel like in some ways
14:50
we're wasting our time. Now, I'm not saying in investing
14:53
in and trying to understand and getting us to the point to where
14:57
we could leave this planet long distance and go explore deep
15:01
space if we needed to. I think that's worth worth it.
15:05
But in like the long run to get stay ahead of that curve.
15:08
But when they're like, oh, we got to get to Mars in five
15:12
years, I'm like, shut the fuck up.
15:13
Like, no, we don't. There's no, there's no point to
15:16
that. 5. Years.
15:18
I'm just saying whenever. I mean like what do you mean get
15:22
to Mars? Like humans, you mean?
15:24
Yeah, like humans going to Mars. We're going to build bases there
15:28
and we're going to figure out how to terraform the planet.
15:31
Right now, that sounds like a waste of time.
15:33
Yeah, I agree. And resources and dis manpower.
15:36
That's the thing though, it's like, it's like, am I for like
15:40
exploration of space and shit? Of course, but like, but you're
15:43
right, like there are only so many resources and we don't need
15:48
to be using them just so like, 'cause Elon has like can't get
15:52
hard anymore or something. Like maybe my Dick will work on
15:56
Mars, I just need to rub some Mars rocks on my Dick and then
15:59
it'll work. Like no dude, it's gonna take
16:01
way more than that. This blue chews not working
16:04
anymore. I I.
16:05
I find it hard to believe that like he can't like like dude,
16:09
this guy puts chips in people's brains and gets them to like
16:12
walk again. Like he, like he can't get his
16:15
own Dick to work, like come. On I think that's hyperbole.
16:17
I don't know if he's gotten anybody to walk again, because I
16:20
don't want somebody can play. I know what somebody can play
16:22
Call of Duty and use a mouse with his brain.
16:26
Allegedly, that's all we know, but I guarantee you those that
16:31
dudes like this chip itches. This sucks.
16:34
Like I I don't I just. Don't.
16:35
No, there wasn't. Yeah, there was the first guy,
16:37
like they did have to go back in and do it again 'cause something
16:41
messed up or something, but he was all about it.
16:45
Of course, I mean, I'm not to be a Dick, but I'm pretty sure that
16:48
guy was, like, borderline veggie.
16:50
So it's not like he's, like, doing much like.
16:52
Yeah, they're like, yeah, you're like quadriplegic.
16:55
Do you want to be able to use a computer?
16:57
And he's like, hell yeah. Like, that would solve so many
16:59
of my problems. All right, sweet.
17:01
We're going to put this in your brain.
17:03
Hey, what do you say? Like, what else?
17:04
What else do I, what else do I have to lose?
17:07
My ability to my ability to walk?
17:09
Like, that's been gone. Like, would Greg Abbott risk it?
17:12
Maybe he might. There's some people like that.
17:15
It's like you could find somebody who's in need or is
17:20
like physically disabled and convince them to put a microchip
17:23
in their brain. If you know in a couple updates
17:26
you'll be able to walk like it's that's an easy sell for this
17:28
fucking guy. Like it's not, it's not like
17:31
he's finding like, hey, sports athlete, hey, person who's got
17:35
all their, you know, who's all there.
17:37
Let's let's talk about putting this chip in your brain.
17:40
They would be like, fuck you and they'd walk away like he's it's,
17:43
you know, I don't, it's I don't know, it's kind of corny.
17:49
It's I guess it's cool, but it's dumb.
17:51
So with that, the deep space exploration, hell yeah,
17:57
terraforming planets with no atmosphere, it sounds like a
18:02
waste of fucking time. It's honestly some like boomer
18:05
ass lame ass Gen. X shit where they're like, I
18:09
thought we would already be living on Mars.
18:11
I watched Total Recall so many times in the 80s and I'm pissed
18:14
that we're not there. So I'm going to make it happen.
18:17
Like they're almost disappointed with the future.
18:19
So they're that they what they thought it would be.
18:22
I remember watching the escape from New York and I thought New
18:25
York City was going to be a prison and prison island and St.
18:29
Bliskin was going to have to save the president from fucking.
18:32
I don't know what's. Oh my God what's his name?
18:38
How am I forgetting his name from Shaft?
18:42
He did Shaft and truck turn. No no no, the original.
18:46
The original 1. Anyways, I gotta go, I gotta go
18:51
save the president from a prison.
18:52
Prison island. Like why isn't this happened
18:54
yet? Why?
18:55
Why are we not on Mars like in Total Recall and there's not
18:58
chicks with three boobs? I have to make this happen.
19:01
Like, that's honestly what the this sounds like.
19:04
It's some weird ass Gen. X shit, Some weird ass boomer
19:07
shit. They're pissed off cars don't
19:09
fly yet. They're pissed off that that we
19:11
can't, you know, turn coal into gold or whatever other bullshit
19:14
that they were trying to do where they were sold when they
19:17
watch some Schwarzenegger movie. And now they want to try to just
19:21
like force it to happen. And it makes no sense,
19:25
absolutely no sense. But it sounds cool.
19:29
So people are like, hell yeah, that sounds tight.
19:33
I want to go to Mars. Fuck yeah.
19:35
It's like, no, you don't. I don't suck ass.
19:38
Mars would suck ass. Oh, you could probably find some
19:42
guys in like some UFC or Affliction T-shirts and a bunch
19:46
of pants they buy at Buckle who'd be all for going.
19:50
Tomorrow. Yeah, buckle still exists and
19:53
they are they are responsible for some of the worst dressed
19:57
people just maybe not out there. I think that L as like the LA
20:01
California areas move past it. But oh, go go into Grapevine
20:05
Mills mall. You got the buckle is like 2
20:07
storefronts. Is this they've expanded
20:11
expansion part phase three? Fall, fall of 2025, they have a
20:16
sign up front. Like that's how tacky.
20:19
It's so fucking tacky that that those people, hell yeah, dude,
20:24
they're in me and my von Dutch hat.
20:26
We're going to Mars. It's like, cool dude, awesome
20:30
Randy, go have a fucking. Blast.
20:32
Why? Why Randy?
20:34
Randy's just a dad name. Randy's just a dad name.
20:37
You don't really hear that much anymore.
20:38
Anybody who's named Randall now would just go by Randall.
20:43
They're not going to be like call me Randy.
20:44
Like that's not you know, it's just not happening.
20:49
That is my go. That is one of my go to cornball
20:53
names though, is Randy. That's I noticed it is or Keith,
20:59
Kevin, sit down, chill the fuck out.
21:02
Like that's but those are dad names.
21:05
Therapy question #2 You come in contract with, in contact with
21:10
an unknown tribe. Nobody knows they exist.
21:14
You're wandering through the jungle for whatever fucking
21:17
reason. I'll know you're a white guy and
21:19
you're wandering through the jungle and you come across an
21:22
unknown tribe. What do you do?
21:24
Oh. Man, I don't know.
21:31
I mean, I, I try to figure out if they think I'm God and then
21:34
play into that. But if they don't, I mean, it's
21:38
like. I wasn't.
21:40
They're they're not, they're not cannibals.
21:43
OK. Cannibals are not going to kill
21:46
you or eat you. That's pretty much all you know.
21:49
Maybe I showed my like my the tattoo of my dog on my arm and
21:53
just, you know, maybe like relate.
21:57
They're like, oh, that's cool, he's got a dog.
21:59
Hey, that's 2. Oh, you know what I can do?
22:03
I could pull up ChatGPT and then have it like create an image of
22:11
them, blow their fucking minds. Then they'll think I'm God, I'll
22:16
take a picture of them, upload it to the ChatGPT, have them
22:19
make a fucking yeah yeah. So would use AI to trick the
22:24
tribe and your God And then what?
22:27
I mean do you just live with them?
22:28
Live amongst them as their God. Of course.
22:31
Enslave them. Right, Right.
22:32
That's what you have to do. Slave.
22:37
Give him like, give him like, yeah, syphilis or something.
22:44
Jesus, this is rolling up on the tribe with syphilis.
22:47
What's up guys? Yeah, I don't.
22:49
I'd have to go get it and then and.
22:50
Then come back and then give it. Yeah.
22:51
I'll be right back. Give me a SEC.
22:53
I'll be right back. I gotta go.
22:54
Hit up the red light district. Let me see what?
22:56
Let me see what I can bring back for you.
23:01
Yeah, I mean, I would try to communicate with them.
23:05
I wouldn't want to trick them into thinking I'm their guy.
23:07
One thing I wouldn't. Well, I'm just, I'm doing that
23:09
like out of like a defense like I'm not.
23:11
I'm not going to take on a whole tribe and they might be hostile
23:14
unless they thought I was gut. And they wouldn't, like you
23:18
couldn't get away from them. They'd probably.
23:20
I like their chances on running the average person down like
23:24
that's. Obviously know the area.
23:26
Yeah, like they they're pretty. They're pretty cunning, so you'd
23:30
have to try to ingratiate yourself with them.
23:32
One thing I wouldn't do is I wouldn't knock them out when I
23:35
did leave. I wouldn't tell anybody else
23:36
where they were if they were chill.
23:38
I mean, that depends on that depends on how things go.
23:41
Yeah, if they were chill, I would be like, hey, leave, I
23:44
could say something, but I'm not.
23:46
But if they suck, I'm going to be like, hey, they're right
23:48
there. They're like right over there.
23:50
Just keep walking 50 miles. That way you'll bump into them.
23:53
They're fucking weird. This guy named Randy, I don't
23:57
know why he's there. He's tricked him into thinking
24:00
that he's their God, everybody. That's Andy, not Randy bro.
24:04
On my side it's frozen but maybe others.
24:10
It's fucked up. Someone's got to put a stop to
24:14
it. But I definitely would try to
24:18
vibe with them because at that point I'm I've stumbled across
24:21
them and it'd be kind of rude to just like leave, you know, be
24:24
like peace out, like, oh shit. And you just like turn around
24:26
and walk away. I think that would make them
24:28
hustle. Maybe they give me cool gifts,
24:33
precious gems, gold, who knows. Yeah, like when Captain Cook, I
24:39
think James Cook, maybe. I don't know, Captain Cook, he
24:43
landed in Hawaii like Hawaiians for the first time.
24:46
Yeah, they're, they were like doing a lot of trading and then
24:48
they were like robbing shit. I forget what.
24:50
I think maybe like copper or something, some sort of metal
24:53
that they had. They just kept stealing like off
24:55
his boat when they were like sleeping 'cause he like posted
24:58
up in Hawaii like for like months.
25:00
Yeah, and they're just like taking ganking and shit.
25:05
But that would be spooky as fuck if you were just wandering and
25:08
stumbled across an unknown tribe nobody knew existed.
25:12
That would be kind of terrifying.
25:14
And those still exist. I mean, there's a there's a N
25:18
Sentinel Island, which we've talked about where it's like
25:20
forbidden to contact them, forbidden to go there.
25:24
They don't know how many people live there.
25:25
It could be 50 people, it could be like 800.
25:29
They have no idea. People get murdered going to
25:33
North Sentinel Island in the Indian Ocean.
25:36
It's like a militarized zone where if you like go up there,
25:39
they'll like shoot your fucking boats down.
25:41
But there's been they throw Spears and shit at helicopters.
25:44
There's one story where two guys got marooned on the island
25:48
because there's a shipwreck and they wound up there and they
25:50
were both murdered on the beach. Like landed on the beach.
25:54
Oh man, we just made it to the land.
25:56
I'm so glad we didn't drown in the ocean and just got murdered
26:00
by those guys. Then there was a crazy Christian
26:03
missionary guy who's like, I'm going to go get spread the word
26:06
of Christianity. He showed up and he got murdered
26:09
on the rocks. So I got you can't really fuck
26:13
with them. But you know, in like the Amazon
26:15
and stuff, there's still tribes that no one knows exists.
26:18
There has to be. There has.
26:20
To be. There, I mean, mathematically,
26:22
there are tribes that no one knows about.
26:24
There has to be. There's no way.
26:26
There's no way. It's insane that there is like I
26:30
like, unless they're living in like I get like us not being
26:33
able to explore the ocean like we want to, but you're telling
26:37
me, come on, man, I mean like like if you're telling me
26:40
there's like a cure for every disease in the Amazon, we don't
26:43
know about that. That's probably true, but
26:47
people. Yeah, I feel like they're
26:49
probably living in some. Ewok Bin Laden.
26:51
We got Bin Laden, dude. Living in some Ewok village in
26:56
the trees, the same like in the Congo, like the jungles of the
26:59
Congo, there's we discover new animals every fucking day,
27:03
insects that we never knew existed, but not.
27:05
Humans, not humans. No, I mean I'm that ass ChatGPT,
27:11
but I'm not. Let me see, are there?
27:24
We're we're now asking. Undocumented there there yes
27:29
there are many uncontacted tribes so uncontracted.
27:32
But the estimates suggest between 100 and two 100 and 200
27:37
such tribes either non contacted or unknown where they are.
27:42
So they could be up to 200. Unknown where they are, but
27:46
they're known that they're they are.
27:49
I mean, you find, you find like a chocolate laying around in the
27:52
jungle and you're like, who's the fucks is this?
27:54
Who's walking around out here in these homemade sandals?
27:58
Are we like doing these people a service by not contacting them?
28:03
Are we sure? It's like like, 'cause like
28:05
think about it. Like what if like, I don't know,
28:08
like you're like someone's dad kidnapped his whole family, took
28:12
him to like the jungle. And then just like they kept
28:14
breeding and it was like a cult like type situation.
28:18
But it just went on for so long that like now we're like, oh,
28:23
that's just how they are. We just like, can't, you know,
28:26
it's like, do they, like, do you think that they'd still be in
28:29
the jungle, like fearing for their lives, like, for like
28:32
tigers to like, eat them? Like, if they knew like that,
28:35
they could go to like The Four Seasons.
28:39
I don't know. Are we kind of hiding hiding the
28:44
real world from them? Yeah, but I mean, I feel like
28:46
they've hide. They've hid themselves from the
28:48
real. World they don't know, they have
28:50
no idea. They're just, they're just
28:51
surviving. That's like the movie Jungle to
28:54
jungle, but Tim. Allen, shut up.
28:58
Yeah, you you know that there's two movies that came out at the
29:01
exact same time. 1's called Little Indian Big City and one's
29:04
called Jungle de Jungle and they're the exact same movie but
29:07
with different actors. I didn't know that.
29:10
If you remember how we were talking about like Dante's peak
29:12
and Volcano. Yeah, Dante's.
29:14
The same movie and they came out at the exact same time.
29:17
Yeah, there's little little Indian big city and jungle de
29:20
jungle. If you watch, it's the same shit
29:22
is like Suns from, you know, like was like, I don't know,
29:27
whatever, like. In jungle to jungle, he's like a
29:31
is he a Is he a kid of color or is he just like a blonde?
29:34
No. Is it a white?
29:36
Boy, is it. Is it a Justin Taylor Thomas?
29:39
Jonathan Taylor. Yeah, JTT Jonathan Taylor.
29:43
Thomas No, because it isn't it Tim Allen, though?
29:45
Yeah, Tim Allen plays the dad, for sure.
29:47
That was like Pete, Tim Allen. We're just so wild.
29:50
That's why I thought it was JTT because he's in home improvement
29:54
with. Tim, what's wild to me is that
29:55
Tim Allen still did like time hard Time for trafficking
29:59
cocaine back in the day and then like narked a bunch of people
30:01
out and then turned it into a comedy career.
30:05
That's pretty badass. Talk about a blow up.
30:08
I actually saw jungle to jungle in the movie theaters as a kid.
30:11
Shout out. Yeah, it was not that good.
30:14
Did did you see that Sinbad genie movie too in the theaters,
30:17
you liar. Dude, I could have sworn I think
30:21
I figured out what it was though.
30:23
Is there is 'cause there is Kazaam for Shaq When Shaq plays
30:31
the genie, there's steel where Shaq plays.
30:36
I mean he doesn't plays plays Shaq in a metal outfit where
30:40
he's like, he's like in love with some white chick in a
30:43
wheelchair who's good at welding.
30:46
Wild movie. I think there's a movie where
30:50
Sinbad dresses up as a genie. No hold on.
30:54
And not where he plays a genie. Like he's dressed up as a genie
30:58
for something in the movie I want to say it's for.
31:01
See you think this movie. Exists I haven't watched first
31:04
kid so so now. So not no, he's not a genie in
31:07
First Kid dude. He's a Secret Service agent.
31:09
I know I'm talking about for Halloween, he dresses up as a
31:12
genie. You think this?
31:16
I have a rewatched First Kid, another great movie that I saw
31:19
in the movie theaters. Yeah.
31:21
I mean, Sinbad was only in so many movies that were that
31:25
involved. Kids and you've you've now
31:26
made-up to 1 where he's a genie and one where he dresses as a
31:31
genie, but he's not a genie. I'm saying I think that that
31:34
happens in first kid but I'm not sure.
31:37
I could have sworn I saw a movie where.
31:39
Simbad, I'm happy to do research for the pod and watch.
31:41
I'm not the old. I'm not the I'm not the only
31:44
person who. Got I saw that in the theaters
31:45
too, now that I think about it. I'm not the only person who got
31:48
hit with that Mandela Effect shit on that, because I'm not
31:51
the only person who could have sworn there was a Sinbad movie
31:54
with him playing a genie. I'm not the only person.
31:58
I was the only person like where he's had to answer questions
32:03
about it multiple times for people who accused Sinbad of
32:06
lying. I would have been one of those
32:08
people. I would have been like, you're
32:10
fucking lying dude. I saw it.
32:13
I didn't seen it. So when they came out with the
32:16
Shazam Marvel movie where the little white boy plays an adult
32:19
white kid, but he's a little kid and he's like, oh, I got all
32:22
these superpowers, stupid as shit.
32:24
That movie. I was like, they stole that
32:26
title from that Sinbad movie. It's the first thing that popped
32:30
in my head when I saw that movie come out.
32:33
It's like they stole that. They stole that from that Sinbad
32:35
movie. I was wrong, totally wrong.
32:40
But we should rewatch first kid, because that movie's great.
32:44
And then the kid who is the main character in that, there's a
32:49
whole conspiracy wildness about that kid.
32:53
He's also with the same. Yeah, he's also the same kid in
32:56
Blank Check. He's.
32:57
Huge blank check. He's huge in cryptocurrency now,
33:02
like big time in cryptocurrency and like has all these like NFT
33:07
shit like that dude's made a shit, shit ton of money.
33:10
What's his name? Brock something What?
33:14
Do you mean he's huge in crypto? What does that even fucking
33:16
mean? He just made a lot of money.
33:20
Yeah, like he's made a fuck ton of money and what's his name?
33:25
Brock Pierce. Yes, Brock Pierce.
33:27
And yeah, now he's he's yeah, works in cryptocurrency
33:31
industry. He's a Co founder of Tether.
33:34
Are you kidding? Oh my God.
33:37
What? That's hilarious, yeah.
33:40
He's one of the Co founders of Tether.
33:42
He's like, fucking. Loaded Jesus Christ.
33:44
But he did a bunch of other weird shit whenever he was a
33:47
kid. He was younger.
33:52
There was like this whole concept of doing like MTV
33:57
interactive shit for kids, like this TV channel.
33:59
There's a really good documentary called The
34:01
Conspiracy of Silence that like swirls around him when he was a
34:06
kid and all these weird people, weird adults who were around him
34:11
at the time, some of whom went to prison, some of whom did like
34:14
X-Men and X-Men too, and are directors.
34:18
But all this weird, like with weird allegations with adults
34:21
and kids. And he was like a in like a part
34:24
of that shit where he was one of these kid actors.
34:27
He was like kind of balled up in it.
34:29
So it's super interesting actually.
34:32
And then the the idea that they had was actually way ahead of
34:36
its time, but it a collapsing the fuck out.
34:39
But he's always been somebody who's like, I got a fresh idea.
34:42
I got a new idea trying to start businesses.
34:44
And then he got huge in crypto. That's why I mean, like he's big
34:46
in crypto. It's like he's a Co founder of
34:48
tether. I don't know if it gets any
34:50
bigger than that. No, it really doesn't like if
34:53
you think about like starting a coin because there's only,
34:56
there's only so many that are like even like remotely like
35:01
have any utility to them. And I'd say Tether, I guess the
35:06
biggest stable coin, stable coin is like where they tie the price
35:10
of the cryptocurrency to something, usually the dollar.
35:14
So for every Tether is worth a dollar, only a dollar, and it'll
35:20
only be worth a dollar. So if the dollar's more
35:23
valuable, one day your tether's more valuable.
35:26
But that's it. And we actually talked about it
35:29
on the podcast. The irony when he was a guest
35:32
and when the Super producer was still here, it was like on
35:34
episode 5 and we were talking about like, does Tether have
35:38
'cause like at the time, I think it was like some little amount
35:42
of money. It was like $600 million or, or
35:44
something. And that they set.
35:47
So like, so if everybody cashed in their tether, could they do
35:50
they have the 600 million to give to people and they didn't.
35:54
And now it's worth like sixty $100 billion or something crazy
35:59
market cap. So egg on our face because we
36:05
thought Tether was like a fucking Ponzi scheme.
36:08
I mean, still might be. In 2000, he was named in a civil
36:14
lawsuit alleged of sexual abuse, but he was never criminally
36:18
charged. Like, he's got all sorts of
36:22
weird. There's a Hollywood Reporter
36:25
article, the strange saga of Jeffrey Epstein's link to Brock
36:28
Pierce. He wants to, he's a billionaire
36:32
now, but he wants to now be, he wants to be a yeah, yeah, he's
36:38
yeah. Associate of embattled X-Men
36:40
director. So he was like a part of this
36:44
group of kid actors who would go to these parties and drink and
36:47
do all this weird shit. Ryan Singer was a director who
36:52
did like X-Men, X-Men 2 did a bunch of other stuff like the
36:55
original X-Men with like Halle Berry, a storm, arguably one of
36:58
the best castings ever and was tied to all of that.
37:02
And then kind of got caught up in this like swirl shit.
37:05
But he was a kid at the time, so it was almost like it wasn't
37:09
like his fault, but he was like around for some of this weird
37:12
shit. Then he kind of fizzled off and
37:14
was always looking for something and then hit it huge on the
37:18
crypto and now he's talking about running for president.
37:20
So there you go. I thought it was called a water
37:25
slide. In his, in his, in his room, in
37:27
blank check. And he was also in the Mighty
37:29
Ducks and he's like a total douche bag of Mighty Ducks, so
37:32
go figure, maybe. Cake Eater.
37:42
Therapy question #3 And this is like probably be a little bit
37:47
longer of a topic because we'll bring up the fact that Joe Biden
37:50
has has been announced that he has metastasized cancer.
37:57
Crazy stage 4, hyper aggressive, and there's been all sorts of
38:02
wild shit being said about it. But therapy question #3 have
38:06
politics become too tribal and too inhumane on both sides, not
38:12
just one side? We obviously lean left, but I'm
38:15
just curious, is it just gotten out of control?
38:17
Because if it was Trump who it came out that he had like ass
38:21
cancer, I don't think we'd be that upset about it.
38:26
And that's. Bro, he almost got assassinated.
38:31
I wasn't that upset about it. Allegedly.
38:38
I guess, I mean, I mean, yeah, obviously like on the right.
38:41
I don't know why you're saying both sides like I mean.
38:45
'Cause it goes both ways, it's OK.
38:47
So it's like if you have like a toxic, like, like you have a
38:50
toxic abusive husband and so you're like super anti the
38:57
husband, does that make you too tribal and inhumane?
39:02
It's like we have like a crazy right wing fucking lunatic
39:06
party. So you have to forgive people if
39:09
they don't want to, like if they don't like them on the left.
39:13
But at the same time, I mean, like, you know, like Bill Maher
39:16
says this shit. It's like you like, you know,
39:18
you can hate Trump, but like you can't hate everybody who voted
39:21
for Trump. And I like, I agree with that.
39:23
It's like, I don't give a shit if somebody's voted for Trump,
39:26
like at all, because it's like whatever, it's like that's
39:30
that's your choice. Like if you're like in my face,
39:33
like MAGA asshole, Well, that's different.
39:35
But like if, if it's like my mom voted for Trump, but like that
39:38
sucks. She did that.
39:40
But like, I don't like hold it against her.
39:43
Oh, I don't know, maybe because it's my mom.
39:45
Maybe I do, but you know somebody like that.
39:47
Yeah, yeah, I know. I mean, that makes sense.
39:50
I, I would say definitely, and it's definitely on both sides
39:53
because like you just said, it's President Trump allegedly almost
39:56
got assassinated and there's a lot of people.
40:00
But that guy, that guy was going to no, that guy was going to try
40:03
to assassinate body. He looked up like when the
40:05
Democratic National Convention was where it was.
40:07
We looked up, you know, he was looking up like different, like
40:10
people to like, he was just looking to kill somebody.
40:13
Well, I know that. What I'm saying is that happened
40:16
and we weren't like, Oh my God. We were like, oh shit.
40:19
Yeah, 'cause he's an asshole. Like when I.
40:21
OK, what's so funny is like when I was a copier salesperson, I
40:26
guess the first time I had out of college.
40:28
So think about that's how long Trump's been around.
40:31
Well, that's how long I was in college too, but I went I was in
40:36
the office. I just like got hired and my
40:40
manager, he was like part owner, but he's like also like the head
40:43
sales manager. He's like the nicest dude in the
40:46
world. Like like just super friendly
40:49
guy and like just like wholesome.
40:52
He says to me, this is like when Trump's running for our for
40:55
president the first time. He's like, he's like me and my
40:58
buddy JT who got hired on the same day.
41:00
And but we're just like randomly, we're just like doing
41:02
something in the office. But he goes, he goes guys.
41:05
Like I think, or maybe it was right after he got elected, he
41:08
goes, I think Donald Trump might get assassinated.
41:11
He's like, 'cause he's such an asshole.
41:14
And he like looks both left and right, like for saying the word
41:17
asshole, 'cause like, that's how nice of a guy is.
41:19
But even he was saying he's like, he's such an asshole that
41:21
he might get assassinated. And that was fucking almost 10
41:25
years ago. No, I mean, but devil's
41:31
advocate, we've also seen the Democrats do super goofy shit,
41:38
stupid, weird shit like Thor. That's why I say it's both
41:42
sides. Like I think Bernie Sanders just
41:43
did an interview with with the other Schultz on his podcast and
41:48
he was like, do he was like, do you think that the Democrats are
41:52
also a threat to democracy because they're like not.
41:56
And he was like, I'm, he's like, I, I'm not going to disagree
41:58
with you. That's because, you know, he got
42:00
screwed out of his nominee nomination.
42:03
Technically you could say twice. Then put in Kamala, who's not
42:06
that popular of a politician in general, up for the presidential
42:10
seat after they tried to shuffle Joe Biden out there.
42:14
Now it comes out that Joe Biden's got stage 4 cancer.
42:17
I mean, there was a couple. How do you get this Stage 4 when
42:20
you're the president? Is he not getting scans all the
42:23
time? That's what they, and that's the
42:24
big thing on the right right now is like they knew that he had
42:28
cancer. They just weren't telling
42:29
anybody. They were lying about it.
42:31
There was a press conference Biden gave maybe like 3 years
42:35
ago or something where he said like, I have cancer.
42:38
And then was like up and then everyone was like, oh, you just
42:40
misspoke. And now it's like he's got
42:42
cancer. So I mean.
42:44
Three years ago. Something like that.
42:47
So that's where it's, it's the whole thing.
42:51
I'm not, I'm not. I mean, that's like a, it's a
42:53
whole fucking thing. But I would say yes.
42:56
So they have become inhumane because there are people who are
42:59
just applauding and cheering and are happy that this 80 year old
43:02
man, 80 something year old man's got cancer, like metastasized to
43:06
the bone cancer. That's fucked up.
43:09
And then just like it would be fucked up if something did
43:12
happen to our current president and everybody was cheering in
43:15
the streets, that would be fucked up.
43:17
Like there's like a desensitization.
43:20
To I think it'd be fucked up that we got to that point, but I
43:23
mean I but it'd be understandable.
43:26
But I mean, but what I'm saying is as human beings, that would
43:30
be we are so desensitized to that, then I think that that's a
43:34
problem just in general, doesn't matter who it is.
43:36
The fact that we would applaud if somebody, if something,
43:40
didn't. Happen to anything No, that's
43:41
not true No, that's not that's because of the empathy of
43:44
humans. It's because Donald Trump is
43:47
more of a problem alive. That's why you'd be celebrating.
43:54
OK? I'm just saying like that's why
43:56
people would be celebrating is because it's like the fucking
44:02
evilness has stopped, OK? Like the are humans are humans
44:07
desensitized and inhumane for celebrating like when Hitler
44:10
killed himself. No, that's people celebrated
44:14
because they love humans and this dude's killing humans.
44:20
Trump's shipping people off to South Sudan, where there's a
44:23
fucking famine in a civil war. I'm not disagreeing with that.
44:32
Those are terrible things. I'm not.
44:33
I'm just speaking in generalities in the sense that I
44:36
do think that as a culture, especially in the political
44:40
sphere, the division has gotten worse and worse, and obviously
44:45
him being in office has made it worse than making it better.
44:48
Wouldn't disagree with that at all.
44:49
I think that's half of his ploy is to make it as divided as
44:53
possible. It's easier.
44:54
That's the whole Republican Party ploy is to make is to
44:56
divide you on, on race, on religion, on on class.
45:01
Like it's like that's your boy Bernie talked about it.
45:04
He's like, they can't win on their fucking like, you know,
45:07
cut taxes for billionaires. So they're going to like, push,
45:11
you know, like the transgender shit.
45:13
Divide, divide. I divide and conquer because
45:15
they don't have good ideas. Fair.
45:25
Excuse me, but I would say that, yeah, I think I just, I think in
45:29
general it has become too tribal and too inhumane, pointing both
45:32
sides, because if something happened to Marjorie Taylor
45:36
Green, everybody would be like good, blah, blah.
45:40
They would be stoked and that in that, in this.
45:43
Name. Name like a normal person on the
45:46
right that that that would happen.
45:47
There are people that are happy that George Santos is going to
45:50
for federal prison. Name a normal person.
45:53
That is a problem. It doesn't get more normal than
45:56
George Boy. George.
45:57
You're, you're picking Georgie boy.
45:59
Dude, how dare you picking Marjorie.
46:01
Marjorie Tate, friend of the pod.
46:03
Come on. It's gotten so bad that someone
46:11
from the right can't disagree with the right without being
46:14
expelled. And it's their fault.
46:17
And it's the same on the left. You can't disagree with the
46:21
majority of the left and still be considered on the left.
46:25
Well, I do it all the time. That is pretty fucked up that
46:32
he's got cancer though. And yeah, I mean, I feel like
46:35
they knew way ahead of time. I think they probably found out
46:40
and we're like, hey, this motherfucker's got cancer.
46:43
And that's really when they were like, dude, you got to get the
46:47
fuck out of the race. I could see that being one.
46:50
Besides his mental decline, yes, absolutely.
46:55
No, because like he was obviously like not all there.
46:58
So that would have been a reason to get out and not like, oh,
47:00
they might find out you have cancer.
47:04
Well, no, they. Just thought he was going.
47:05
To lose, hey, you got, you know, because if you put Joe Biden in
47:08
there with Kamala Harris as AVP, then he gets cancer, he dies of
47:13
cancer and she becomes president.
47:14
Every right wing conspiracy theorist who's like, they're
47:17
just propping them up there to get her in.
47:19
And this is their whole agenda. The Democrats are just trying to
47:22
weasel her in there. They would that would be they
47:26
would have a field day with it. Well, you're saying that that
47:29
would have been the case because they knew he had cancer?
47:31
Yeah, that's what I mean. That's what it seems.
47:34
Like so they would have been right.
47:36
The last thing we want is these crazy motherfuckers.
47:39
No I would. That's fine.
47:40
I'll take that over Trump getting re elected.
47:43
Well then he just would have gotten re elected later and
47:45
we've been like see I told you guys I didn't.
47:48
Have much time bro, he's like 80.
47:50
I told everybody this is going to happen, Sleepy Joe.
47:55
But I mean, the whole situation is sad.
47:57
That sucks. I mean, he's been in public
47:59
service for over 50 years. To have that and then to get the
48:03
hate and the vitriol that he's been receiving from people in
48:06
like the news, the journalism and political sphere is pretty
48:09
fucked up. Yeah, I haven't really been
48:14
watching the news. Because if that happened to
48:17
somebody on the right, we would be, we would be so jeering and
48:22
saying the same goofy shit. So it doesn't like.
48:25
No we wouldn't. I just disagree with you like
48:27
it's just not true. You don't think so?
48:30
No, like I feel like people were like felt bad for Trump and he
48:33
got shot on the left like and they didn't like it.
48:36
They didn't like that they felt bad.
48:37
Like, no, when an 80, a four year old man gets prostate
48:42
cancer, Like I don't know what's a surprise to anybody other than
48:45
the fact that it's stage 4 when they found out.
48:47
Like that's the surprising part. I don't know, I, I guess maybe I
48:56
have an aversion to the tribalness nowadays.
48:59
And so that's why I'm trying to I'm just trying to like, will it
49:02
that it's not too bad. But you're probably right.
49:06
I think it is. It totally is sort of people.
49:09
There's be people on the left who were like AO CS crazy.
49:13
People were saying that she's just like, I just have new ideas
49:16
and I think y'all are all a bunch of schmucks.
49:18
Like there's corruption. I like to, I mean, I I'd say
49:20
that she's so up that she needs an Ambien.
49:23
There's, there's corrupt like Bernie Sanders said, the other
49:27
there's corruption on both sides of the aisle, There's
49:30
billionaires on both sides of the aisle that do goofy shit.
49:33
And that's that are pushing their own agenda, which it is
49:37
what it is. You can agree with one more than
49:39
the other, but at the end of the day, that's that's what they're
49:42
doing. That's what's happening the.
49:43
Trump, the Trump family has increased their wealth since
49:46
January by $3 billion. That's $1 billion a month that
49:51
the Trump's have made since he's been back in office.
49:54
Don't tell me there's corruption on both sides.
49:55
There's corruption on one side. Nancy Pelosi, she just let her
50:02
little stock picking Trump. Well, they all do their little
50:06
stock picking. Yeah, exactly.
50:09
They all if it's if it's illegal, I don't know why
50:11
anybody's like complaining about it.
50:12
It's like either make it illegal or shut up.
50:16
Yeah, true therapy question #4 cats or dogs?
50:22
Dogs, dude, what are we talking about?
50:25
Like I mean like, I don't feel like you have to choose though.
50:27
Like like Shorty had two cats in their chow and more fun with it.
50:36
I think they're both, I'd say equal, but a cool a really
50:42
fucking cool cat is cooler than a cool dog.
50:45
No. Yes, absolutely.
50:48
Cats. Cats are like the ultimate
50:50
hunting machine. They're a murder machine.
50:53
Why do I need a murder machine in?
50:55
My house domesticated and now they're just like vibe with us.
50:59
But a really cool like indoor outdoor cat, a really cool just
51:03
neighborhood cat that lives outside all the time that is
51:06
cool as fuck. The cool cat beats a cool dog
51:10
any day of the week. His dogs are great, but dogs
51:13
there's this unconditional love where they'll love you no matter
51:16
what you do. Or cats are like fucking people.
51:19
So you can meet a lot of assholes.
51:21
When you meet a cool fucking person, you're like hell yeah
51:23
bro. And that's what cats are.
51:25
Cats are cool as shit. Cats will bring you gifts.
51:29
Now sometimes they're like dead birds.
51:31
Shit, they kill, it'll bring you like, oh, I brought you this
51:34
bird that I murdered to let you know the like, we're homies and
51:37
like dogs don't do that unless you train them to do that.
51:40
But a cat or just a stray cat could be like, hey, this guy's
51:43
my friend. I'm going to bring you a a dead
51:45
baby bird I snatched out of a tree 45 feet up in the air.
51:49
That's badass. That's cool shit.
51:52
I mean there is the term cool cool cat so it's hard to argue
51:57
with. And cats can be in theory,
52:02
tougher. Cats are definitely tougher.
52:04
You don't want, I mean, obviously you don't want a pack
52:06
of wild dogs running around in your neighborhood because who
52:09
knows what the fuck they'll do. They're very erratic and crazy.
52:12
But pack of Wildcats, I mean you just leave them alone.
52:16
They won't fuck with you. They want nothing to do with
52:17
you. There's like cats have 0
52:20
interest in you or they're all about you.
52:23
That's where I'm like their particular as their dogs are
52:25
just like you're a person, love you or they're like not not
52:30
treated well because I think all dogs are inherently sweet.
52:32
So or you don't treat it well and then it becomes just like a
52:36
crazy ass fucking dog. But I mean that's way more of a
52:38
reflection of its owner than it is like of the dog itself.
52:42
You know how it was treated, raised, whatever.
52:46
But a cat you can get a cat and cats have like their own
52:49
personality and they're pretty fucking intense, man.
52:51
I've I've always been pro both, but I mean, I always like I
52:58
really want a cool cat that's like that lives inside and
53:01
outside and comes and goes as it pleases, does whatever the fuck
53:05
it wants because it's going to take care of itself.
53:07
That's cool as shit. I always thought that was cool.
53:09
Like a barn cat. Those are fucking bad ass dude.
53:13
No way. Quick try, I had one caddy it
53:16
lived outside but it was a street cat.
53:18
But then it would just it lived in their garage, I guess.
53:21
And he just like, come back with like, gashes, like on his head,
53:24
like just we'd be in a street fight like every now and then.
53:27
Yeah, they have territory. They're like, they're fucking
53:32
gangsters dude, And there's a good meme going around but it's
53:34
like cats also don't work for the cops so.
53:37
Yeah, I know. That's all that.
53:39
They get, they get props for that.
53:40
That that that cut me deep. Cats are fucking bad ass.
53:45
They have their own universe. Like for dogs, it's like take
53:50
them to the dog park. That's like I said, it's always
53:52
a wild card because not everybody raises their dog
53:55
correctly or even my biggest pet peeve at the dog park is you
53:59
bring their dog there, you let it off a leash and you just
54:01
don't pay attention to it. I'm like, who's fucking crazy
54:04
ass fucking dog is this? They're like, oh, sorry, that's
54:07
mine. I'm like come get your shit
54:08
dude. But a cat, like, if there was a
54:11
cat park, that'd be crazy. There'd be street fights, it'd
54:15
be wild. They'd be teaming up.
54:17
Or they'd like, yeah, cats don't need humans for entertainment.
54:24
Dogs need a human for that interaction of entertainment.
54:28
Cats are like, whatever, I'm running away.
54:30
I'm never going back. I'll see you in a week.
54:33
And then they come back all fucked up like, oh man, go out
54:35
in this fight and you're like, oh damn, they're like, all
54:37
right, I'm healed up, peace out. And then it's like leave.
54:39
They're like, I don't know, like a cool uncle you see every
54:42
couple months like the cool indoor outdoor cats.
54:45
Now there are you can also have too many cats.
54:49
I mean, how many cats is too many?
54:52
Just like how many dogs? Well.
54:53
You know what I have to say though, I think if it was the
54:57
other way around, I don't think a cat would like would let in 24
55:01
old ladies. No, he'd be like, Nah bro, like
55:06
I got room for one one of you. You don't even you don't even
55:10
pay rent. I I think, I think more than two
55:12
cats is too many. More than two.
55:15
Yeah, that's fair, because cats are messy as shit.
55:17
That's also why I've always been pro inside outside cat.
55:20
Like if you had a doggy door that it could go out of, that'd
55:23
be tight. Because they're messy as shit.
55:26
Their pee is like the most lethal shit in the world, but I
55:30
mean, they get high on catnip. That's cool as fuck.
55:32
Like there's, you know, I don't know, man, they're.
55:34
Like, you know what they is the shortest cats.
55:37
They look exactly the same. And so I knew that she had two
55:41
cats, but I just always thought I'd never seen the other cat.
55:45
But I'd seen them both. I'd seen them both.
55:47
I just never saw them like at the same time, you know, So I
55:51
didn't realize that I'd seen both.
55:53
Like if somebody could have a cat and it not like people, and
55:56
you never know, they could be at their house for a year and never
55:59
see their cat. But if someone has a dog, think
56:02
about it though, it's true. But if someone has a dog and it
56:05
doesn't like people, yeah, lock it up.
56:07
You got to put it outside. The cat's just like, I don't
56:09
fuck with these people. I'm out.
56:11
I'm going to go sleep under the bed for 12 hours, come back and
56:15
eat some food. I might fuck with you and be
56:18
like mayor, like you're like, oh, are we going to be friends
56:20
now? And it's like, Nah, fuck you.
56:21
And it hisses at you and dips. You're like that, that there's
56:24
something cool. There's something human about a
56:28
cat that dogs don't really have. OK.
56:34
Does that make sense? Yeah.
56:36
I mean I know you're you're pro more dog than cat but hopefully
56:41
I made a good a good case 'cause I want a cat bro I want a cat so
56:45
bad. But oh I know but Topanga would
56:48
probably eat eat the cat fucking alive.
56:51
Like Topanga is probably the most.
56:53
Topanga was a woman that I knew in my life.
56:56
She'd be the most toxic woman I've ever met in my entire life.
57:00
I would not fuck with her. But she's my sweetie and I love
57:03
her, but she is so Moody that if I got a cat, she'd try to eat
57:07
that shit in a second for sure. And she would seen her kill a
57:12
skunk. Avoid the spray.
57:15
She'll sidestep crazy Topanga is afraid of the bath.
57:20
She's afraid of rain. So sensitive that if she like
57:27
screws something up and she sees it, you find it.
57:30
She's like in the corner, like, Oh my God, like having a panic
57:34
attack, like I need to put this dog on like some Zoloft or some
57:37
shit. But when you get her outside on
57:40
that leash, if she sees something that's not a dog that
57:43
she knows or just not a dog, I mean, it's instant.
57:47
So one morning she was freaking out by the back door and I was
57:51
like, all right, like I got up early, was going to take her out
57:54
to go pee, open up the door. She beelines it for the back
57:57
corner of the backyard in the house I was living in at the
58:00
time. She takes off for the back
58:02
corner and there's a light so I can see there's a fucking skunk
58:07
back there pretty big too. And I'm like no no, no, no, no,
58:12
like no, like Topanga, fuck off. And she gets this like tunnel
58:15
vision where she just goes like full wolf mode.
58:19
So she is sprinting as fast as she can to the corner.
58:22
I see the skunk squat, turn around to spray her and right
58:27
when it does, she does this like jump sidestep move so it's
58:31
sprays and she's like turn around and just chomp its head
58:37
whop in one foul, just chump and it just goes limp.
58:40
She shakes it a bunch, throws it against the fence and then just
58:44
comes back and it's like hey, I was like Oh my fucking God.
58:49
Luckily she was fine. She had all of her shots.
58:52
But one of the craziest things I've ever seen is she's
58:55
literally like matrix the skunks brand.
58:58
I watched it in full time. I've seen her dig holes in the
59:01
ground. I mean she better not fucking do
59:03
this here, but dig holes deep in the ground and pull moles out.
59:08
She can hear them under the ground and she will dig down
59:11
like bro like 3 1/2 feet and pull out live moles.
59:15
So what the one she's like I said, she's kind of a pussy.
59:18
So the first time she I got her not being a pussy, I was like,
59:23
what is she doing in the corner of the yard?
59:25
I go out there and I hear this like and she's just sitting
59:28
there. She's got a mole that she's
59:30
pulled up out of the ground. It's laying on its back and
59:33
she's just smacking the shit out of it, just slapping it with her
59:36
paws because she's like part boxer and just like toying with
59:39
this thing. I was like, what are you doing?
59:42
And she's happy. She's just like, got a big smile
59:46
tail wagon. And I was like, all right, you
59:48
do you. And I just walked away.
59:49
I just left it because she was being tough.
59:52
I was like about time. Like, that's right.
59:54
My baby girl's a killer. I didn't know what to do.
59:57
I wasn't going to save this mold that was tearing up the yard.
1:00:00
But. Because I was always like why is
1:00:02
she digging these huge fucking holes?
1:00:04
He's like deep tunnels. Like are we?
1:00:07
Am I that terrible? Nah bro.
1:00:09
She was catching moles so she could like play with them and
1:00:13
torture them to death. It was the weirdest shit I've
1:00:15
ever seen. And that was pre skunk.
1:00:17
And I saw her kill a skunk, seen her catch a squirrel, like catch
1:00:21
a squirrel in a dead Sprint. She's that fast.
1:00:23
It's pretty impressive. But run the bathtub dude, we're
1:00:27
hiding. I'm hiding.
1:00:28
Run that bathtub. I'm out bro, I can't no break
1:00:39
because we only have two articles.
1:00:41
Oh. My God, but that's you, dude.
1:00:44
Do you need me to do we need to swap?
1:00:46
I think we do need to swap and let me do articles.
1:00:48
You do therapy questions because we swapped this a while ago.
1:00:53
I think we need to flip flop it back.
1:00:55
That's fine. OK, first of two articles from
1:01:03
The Atlantic by Ally Breeland and Matteo Wong.
1:01:08
The day Grok told everyone about white genocide.
1:01:12
What in the world just happened with Elon Musk's chatbot?
1:01:17
Yesterday, a user on X saw a viral post of Timothy Chalamet
1:01:21
celebrating courtside at the Knicks game and had a simple
1:01:24
question. Who was sitting next to him?
1:01:27
The user tapped in Grok X is proprietary chat bot, as people
1:01:31
often do when they want to help answering questions on the
1:01:33
platform. The software functions like
1:01:36
ChatGPT GPT, except they can be summoned via reply to a post,
1:01:41
and for the most part, Rock has performed reasonably well at
1:01:44
providing responses. But not yesterday.
1:01:47
Chalamet was sitting with Kylie and Kendall Jenner, but here's
1:01:49
how the chatbot replied. I believe you're referring to a
1:01:52
photo with Timothy Chalamet, but the context you mentioned
1:01:55
doesn't seem to align with this image.
1:01:57
The post discusses South African politics, which doesn't relate
1:02:01
to Timothy or the people around him.
1:02:04
Nothing in the photo or post reference South Africa or
1:02:07
politics. Rock spit out similar answers to
1:02:09
many queries for a large chunk of time yesterday, randomly
1:02:12
contorting its responses to mention white genocide in South
1:02:16
Africa, apparently in reference to controversial claims about
1:02:19
incidences of violence against some of the country's white
1:02:22
farmers. When 1 user asked Rock for
1:02:24
analysis on a video of a small cute pig, the chatbot offered
1:02:27
this explanation. The topic of white genocide in
1:02:30
South Africa is highly contentious.
1:02:32
Claims of systematic targeting of white farmers exist, with
1:02:35
farm attacks averaging 50 murders yearly, often cited as
1:02:39
evidence. Some argue these are racially
1:02:41
driven, pointing to rhetoric like kill the boar.
1:02:44
Boar is the term used to refer to Afrikaners, dissidents of
1:02:48
Dutch, German or French settlers in the country.
1:02:51
Nothing in the video or the accompanying text mentioned
1:02:54
South Africa white genocide or kill the boar.
1:02:57
Ever since Elon Musk bought Twitter and renamed it X, the
1:02:59
platform was crept further into the bottom of outlandish and
1:03:02
unsettling porn. Spam bots are rampant, and Nazi
1:03:05
apologia, which used to be extremely hard to find,
1:03:08
frequently goes viral. But yesterday, X managed to get
1:03:12
considerably weirder for hours, regardless of what users asked
1:03:15
to chat. Bot about memes.
1:03:17
Ironic jokes Linux software Many queries to Grok were met with a
1:03:22
small meditation on South Africa in white genocide.
1:03:26
By yesterday afternoon, Grok had stopped talking about white
1:03:28
genocide in most of the posts that included the tangent had
1:03:32
been deleted. Why was Grok doing this?
1:03:34
We don't know for sure, but Musk and Ex's parent company XAI did
1:03:38
not respond request request for comment.
1:03:40
Several hours after publication, XAI posted on X explaining that
1:03:43
an unauthorized modification have been made to the system
1:03:46
prompt for the Grokbot on the platform without supposed to
1:03:49
provide who made the change, X AI is now publicly sharing its
1:03:53
system prompts on GitHub and says it will adopt additional
1:03:56
measures to ensure similar unauthorized change does not
1:03:59
happen in the future. The glitch The glitch is all the
1:04:01
more curious considering the white genocide in South Africa
1:04:04
is a hobby horse for Musk, who is himself is from South Africa.
1:04:09
At various points over the past couple of years, Musk has posted
1:04:12
about the belief in the existence of a plot to kill
1:04:14
white S Africans. What do you think?
1:04:18
Obviously it was him injecting that shit into it.
1:04:21
That's so weird. No, not weird.
1:04:25
It's like so oh, it's just weird that like they did it so poorly
1:04:29
that like it was just like anything.
1:04:31
You ask Rocket. We're talking about white
1:04:33
genocide. Did you know the white people
1:04:35
are dying in South Africa? Because I mean, and we just.
1:04:37
We're like Trump. Yeah, We just brought in
1:04:39
refugees, alleged refugees. I, I watched this one guy who
1:04:45
was like sponsored a South African family.
1:04:49
It was over there. Then they came to America.
1:04:52
They lived in his house and he was like, all they've been doing
1:04:55
is like mooching off of me. Like they're not doing shit.
1:04:58
They don't want to get jobs. The room is paying for all their
1:05:00
stuff. They're just watching movies all
1:05:02
day. So it might be an isolated case,
1:05:04
but I mean, I don't know what South Africa has a history, you
1:05:09
know, an apartheid state, the most disadvantaged people in
1:05:13
that country or black people. So it's interesting that.
1:05:19
I think it's like, I think it's like 7% of the population is
1:05:25
white and they own 2/3 of all the property in South Africa.
1:05:32
I mean, you can always ask Sticky.
1:05:34
He lived. He lived there for a while.
1:05:36
Find a gated community with a guard with a gun.
1:05:39
I mean, it's one of the most crime.
1:05:42
I mean, what? Johannesburg.
1:05:43
Yeah, it's it's. Dangerous cities.
1:05:45
Yeah, it's fine. But like, that's not, that's not
1:05:47
genocide. No, no, no, I know.
1:05:50
But what I'm just saying is that there's been, it's been
1:05:53
disproportionately been like financially beneficial for the
1:06:01
white people that live in South Africa.
1:06:03
Like that's just that. That's just the way it is.
1:06:05
It was structured that way a long time ago.
1:06:07
So even when they got got rid over, they were done with the
1:06:11
apartheid state. There's still things that carry
1:06:13
the fuck over. It's like living in the Jim Crow
1:06:15
South of us. So there's people who don't like
1:06:18
the property that was illegally gotten was is being taken away.
1:06:21
They don't like that there is stuff being set out and laid out
1:06:25
for Africans, like black S Africans that live there and
1:06:29
they're just claiming genocide. They're just like crying wolf.
1:06:33
It's fucking annoying. So we brought a bunch of these
1:06:35
people over here and it doesn't sound, I feel like Musk has got
1:06:39
to help push that narrative because we're bringing in
1:06:43
refugees from other cities, from another country.
1:06:47
We're bringing in refugees from Africa, but they're the, but
1:06:51
they're white and we're and we're and we're and we're anti
1:06:54
refugee right now unless you're white and you're from South
1:06:58
Africa. Like it's just weird.
1:07:00
It's just weird as shit. It's just so hypocritical.
1:07:04
It's not even funny. I don't mean Stephen Miller's
1:07:06
doing his best to try to spin this shit.
1:07:08
And obviously Elon Musk is pro South African white people
1:07:12
because, I mean, you know, him and his family exploited black
1:07:15
labor of children to dig out Emerald's out of mines.
1:07:18
And that's how he made his money.
1:07:20
I'll bring that up for forever because it's true.
1:07:27
And his dad, his dad married his step sister, you know, whatever.
1:07:31
But that's, yeah, poorly executed.
1:07:34
That's like, so bad. It's like asking Grok a question
1:07:39
about how to make a good apple pie and it's telling you about
1:07:42
white genocide in South Africa. It's like way off topic.
1:07:50
I said we skipped this last article.
1:07:52
Why do you say that? My back hurts.
1:07:57
Oh. I've like worked really hard the
1:07:59
last two days. I didn't get home till 9 O clock
1:08:02
last night. I'm a Pullman.
1:08:06
Well the last article was about the take the Take it Down act
1:08:09
that was signed. That was Trump signs.
1:08:11
Take it down, act into law getting rid of AI, deep fakes
1:08:17
and like revenge porn. I'm pro that.
1:08:20
Yeah, like sailed through Congress bipartisan.
1:08:23
Yeah. And then they just said the no
1:08:25
tax on tips, which I don't think really helps at all.
1:08:29
You're just going to owe that money later.
1:08:32
I mean, it'll be it'll help somebody, but it's it's just
1:08:36
fucked up. It's like, what about the
1:08:37
dishwasher, dude? He doesn't make tips, so he has
1:08:39
to you're going to tax the dishwasher.
1:08:41
You're not taxing the servers. You know, it's like, that's kind
1:08:43
of like where you can make the argument.
1:08:45
But I mean as a server I take it I?
1:08:47
Mean. Oh well, yeah.
1:08:48
Server now, but I mean I was for a long time.
1:08:51
Yeah, I know. I mean, it makes sense.
1:08:53
But yeah, I mean, we don't have to delve into it since you're an
1:08:56
old man and your back hurts. I'm sorry, Sorry.
1:09:00
Sorry. You know, you're fine.
1:09:02
I'm sorry to hear that you're. It's just right now, it's just.
1:09:05
Like a hard old man you're falling apart, old man I.
1:09:08
Just need to drink some water I think.
1:09:10
Just get a fucking chair that's closer to the Wi-Fi.
1:09:15
Hey, mad to say bitches, maybe I'll start doing it from the
1:09:18
garage. That'd be tight, dude.
1:09:20
Garage scene. I do have a couch in there.
1:09:22
Well, I'm about to move this behemoth.
1:09:24
Underneath I need a couch but. I got to reconfigure everything,
1:09:28
so I'm about to move this big fuck off machine underneath my
1:09:31
desk so I can rearrange some shit 'cause I'm trying to get it
1:09:34
to where I have my BIG4K camera set up and I can sit in this
1:09:39
like chase lounge love seat thing that I can do it and then
1:09:42
do it all remote remotely. And then I'm going to put you on
1:09:46
that 52 inch HDTV behind me. So whenever I talk to it, the
1:09:50
camera will be there and you'll be on a bigger screen and I can
1:09:53
run everything wirelessly. I think I got it set up, but I
1:09:56
got to move this big fuck off 80 LB chunk of computer that's
1:10:00
driving me nuts. I'm going to do it tomorrow.
1:10:05
I didn't want to do it today because we had the fun.
1:10:07
No, I'm serious. I was like, I'll do it at some
1:10:09
point. I'm not doing it right now.
1:10:10
It's going to take forever. Better say bitches.
1:10:17
