00:00:13.000You look like you're supposed to wear sunglasses.
00:00:15.000Some dudes wear sunglasses, and you're like, bitch, get those sunglasses off.
00:00:18.000But you, you look like you're supposed to be wearing sunglasses.
00:00:22.000There was a point in time when I moved here, I remember, well, for a while there were prescriptions, so I had an excuse for a long time, but I went back to contacts.
00:00:32.000But there was a point in time when I remember turning to my friend, I was like 21, and I was like, I think I'm just going to keep him on all the time, and then it'll just be a thing.
00:00:41.000And that way I can just, if I have to close my eyes, nobody will notice, or if I'm stoned, nobody will notice.
00:00:47.000When people get super famous, like Jay-Z famous, they wear them inside everywhere, just so people don't catch a glimpse of their eyes and hand them a demo tape.
00:00:56.000If you start out like a scrub wearing them, then it's weird if you take them off, you know?
00:01:01.000Well, it's a different thing in the black community, too.
00:01:04.000Like, a real cool black artist is just allowed.
00:01:37.000My dad used to wear Porsches, and at one point I ran across their purple ones, and I was like, I bought like four pairs, and I keep breaking them, and it's my last one.
00:03:15.000But people are never satisfied with the truth.
00:03:18.000That's why people, gorgeous women, will put those fucking crazy cartoons, those selfie filters on, and they're beautiful, and then they'll turn themselves into a cartoon.
00:03:44.000People are getting in this weird state of mind where they think there's a, you know, they said there's an epidemic of girls, like Instamodels, that are actually getting surgery to try to look like they look in their selfies.
00:03:56.000You know, speaking of Instamodels, I just listened to David Spade's audiobook, which I thought was great.
00:04:02.000I guess what Polaroid guy in a snapchat world or whatever there's a lot of chapters that deal with the instant I don't even realize I didn't even realize this is the thing like I'm so out of the loop with with you go to Instagram do you do you like pay attention to it you just post pictures occasionally Man,
00:04:18.000I'm not really good at paying attention to any of it.
00:04:22.000Twitter, from day one, I kind of was in, and I'll go in and out, but it's hard for me to actually keep up and care about it.
00:04:29.000Like, I hate posting pictures of myself, and my manager, Adam, who's here, he's always like, dude, if you're going to post something on Instagram, just make sure you're in it or something, because I'm always, like, taking pictures of other people.
00:05:06.000Well, see, it's easy to throw that off, but see, my daughter is 10, now has an Instagram account, and if I'm not liking them, I feel horrible.
00:05:32.000I mean, my son got so obsessed with fidget spinners, and my daughter, but really my son, to the point where they were spending some time in New York, and I'd be going up there, and we walked down the street, and every fucking vendor, every newsstand, every pretzel place had fidget spinners out.
00:07:12.000I used to love the smell of, like, a good Sharpie, like a fat one.
00:07:16.000Did anyone ever do the thing in school for you where they grab you and they pull you up and then you almost pass out and then they let you go?
00:07:23.000We used to do that in elementary school.
00:11:05.000But I think that there's a point of money that I would like to know the threshold in which you get past that, and then the Saudis, and then all these people start coming and wanting a part of you, and then you start selling your soul.
00:11:16.000Whatever that is, if it's five million bucks, I'm just going to stay right there.
00:12:06.000They've carved tunnels through the ground with laser beams and they have like a network of tunnels they use.
00:12:11.000They travel amongst us waiting for their time to expose themselves.
00:12:15.000People believe, like, you see someone, like, say if you live in an apartment building, and you drive by a dude's house, he's got a fat house, you go, wow, that guy's got a fat house, I wonder who he knows.
00:12:24.000I wonder if he's in with the mob, or maybe he's deep with the Democrats, or maybe he's the bankers, or who does he know?
00:12:32.000Because you always think of someone being at a level where they sit you in a room, and they give you some communications that you're not supposed to expose to the rest of the world.
00:15:23.000I'll just get a boat and go up to it and ride on it.
00:15:26.000Yeah, see, the difference between the experience in a boat that big and an experience in a boat that's like a fraction of that size is not that different.
00:17:56.000Recently it was a Questionnaire that showed that people who eat higher carb diets live longer But it's it's basically a questionnaire that over 20 something years of like what you eat And then the people who died like there was all sorts of problems with it like they didn't exercise as much They were fatter than the people who ate more carbs and also you're asking people to remember what they ate Which is like very very ineffective and then the same comp the same place put out a study Really
00:18:27.000recently that showed the exact opposite effect.
00:18:30.000And so it's like, well, what the fuck?
00:18:32.000If I'm just a regular guy who barely has time to read the paper, and I read a study every now and then, it's basically what you catch.
00:20:25.000And so he took me to Reno on the—I'd been to Reno before, but he took me on the Hellbound Glory tour of Reno, which was him going to different bars and shit.
00:20:35.000And he took me to this guy's house, and it was a friend of his lived down the street, and it was like their garage was open and a bunch of people hanging out playing vinyls.
00:23:29.000But he legitimately did have some photos of some atrocious things.
00:23:33.000But he said it was just to go from being a medical school student to doing your residency in Miami and just seeing just crazy amounts of violence.
00:24:59.000There were, at least at the time, more banks per capita in Miami than anywhere else in the country because it was all used to launder cocaine money.
00:25:49.000Freeway Ricky, who's been on the show a couple times, sued to get his name back and to keep his dude from using his name because he was actually Rick Ross.
00:26:03.000Rick Ross, Freeway Ricky, was the guy who was selling all the cocaine that paid for the Contras when the Contras are fighting the Sandinistas and Nicaragua and that whole Oliver North shit.
00:27:01.000It has to be like, you go to jail, you come out, you go to jail again, you come out, you go to jail again, they go, all right, you're a criminal.
00:33:40.000Right, so I used a part of that, but I remember watching that documentary, and his deal has always been so over the top, where you go, he's like, where are the...
00:33:49.000He'd go to the local people near Bohemian Grove, he's like, we're looking for where the Satanists go to go do that thing.
00:33:55.000And it's obviously, at this point, it's not like people who are knowingly Satanists, it's like really old, fat, rich guys that go there, and there's probably hookers and all kinds of shit, because that's what happens at big...
00:34:39.000But if I came here with the intention of just talking to you, and then all of a sudden you were like, hey, on this day, on this thing, when you did this thing, you focused on this one thing.
00:37:22.000I already had the rich thing, because people thought that I was rich because of my dad, which I never really was.
00:37:28.000I mean, he was supportive of me, but once I got here, I was kind of on my own, and I liked that.
00:37:32.000But then once I talk about Bitcoin with you like fucking five years ago or whenever it was I was here three years ago, and everybody's like, oh, you got to be rich now because of that.
00:41:23.000And me, and especially Eddie Bravo, me and Eddie Bravo would get high, and we'd watch documentaries on flying rods, and all these UFO documentaries, and all the fucking Zachariah Sitchin shit.
00:42:04.000Because someone told him, and maybe he believes it, and he also thinks it's fun to say.
00:42:09.000It's the thing to say if you're really into conspiracies.
00:42:12.000But this is the problem with these fucking conspiracies.
00:42:14.000They say things they don't know are true, and they say them like they're true.
00:42:19.000Now this is fine if you just talk- But why is that an issue?
00:42:22.000It's not an issue if you're talking about the Illuminati.
00:42:24.000If you're talking about your kid getting shot, if your kid's dead, and someone says, hey man, this fucking Tom Smith on the radio saying, you're full of shit, you're a crisis actor, and your kid's not dead.
00:43:31.000This is many years ago before I even had a first record out or anything.
00:43:35.000And David Elko did, you know, we did our set and then he played and he was on stage and he performed a song my mom wrote called Storms Never Last.
00:43:49.000So my mom's over on the side of the stage and we're talking, me and my mom, we're watching it and he's singing it with his wife and stuff.
00:43:54.000The next night, I'm opening up for him, and he goes on stage, and he goes, Last night, Jesse Coulter was right in the front row when I sang this song with my wife, and she was crying.
00:44:05.000And, like, I'm sitting there going, I was here, and she was not crying.
00:45:18.000And the internet is the reason for it, in my opinion.
00:45:21.000Because I think that all the years that have come along...
00:45:24.000The mass amount of people that have migrated to social media, the way that the integrated conversations happened, the way that that stuff ends up on the news now.
00:45:32.000Like AOL chat rooms in fucking 1998, that shit did not end up on CNN. People were not listening to those things.
00:45:40.000The best you could get, the closest you could get to fucking TV was to catch a predator when you were on that at that time.
00:45:47.000And I feel like at this point in time, people need...
00:46:42.000Where these people show up at work, and their basic job is to put propaganda out on Instagram and social media and Twitter and comments and all that stuff.
00:46:53.000I agree, but let's get out of the – let me tell you an example, what I have seen of this.
00:47:00.000I run a bulletin board system called BitSunrise, which is like old technology that used to be modems used to dial into bulletin board systems.
00:47:30.000It's not always 23 on the units, but it's shared with the Telnet port.
00:47:34.000So during the election, during the months up to the election and the months after the election, I would say four months, five months leading up, five months after.
00:47:43.000On my bulletin, this is kind of technical when I'm trying to explain this to you, but when you telnet into a computer, for mine, you would telnet in and it would give you a login.
00:47:58.000It has a picture that's drawn and you put your name and your address or your password in and you log in.
00:48:05.000Well, during the five months leading up to the election and the five months afterwards, I was getting every day, probably all day long, 10 or 20 connections that were coming in.
00:48:15.000And they were just, I wouldn't say a bot.
00:48:19.000They were like, they were scripts that were trying to log into DVRs.
00:48:24.000And trying to log into IP cameras that you can control and everything like that.
00:48:30.000So I was watching for that about a year period.
00:49:35.000I'm getting real nerdy here, but it's like I have these games that people play, and once you get past the 13th, 14th, 15th node, which essentially means once there's 15 people playing at the same time, then the games stop working.
00:50:28.000But there's also people that are absolutely trying to influence elections.
00:50:31.000They're absolutely trying to influence our system.
00:50:34.000And they're trying to manipulate political parties, and they're trying to start dissent.
00:50:39.000And this is one of the things that's really fascinating about this Radiolab podcast, where they talk about how these Russian troll farms literally set up protests.
00:50:47.000They hired people to pretend to be Donald Trump, and they hired people to pretend to be Hillary and put her in a cage and have people chant, lock her up.
00:50:55.000Like, this is all manufactured dissent and manufactured outrage that they're strategically promoting.
00:51:57.000And your body's immune system is constantly under threat of all sorts of different things.
00:52:02.000You fucking touch a doorknob, you wipe your nose, there's a lot of shit going on, right?
00:52:06.000This is very similar, if you just look at it objectively, to what happens whenever you have a server on the internet.
00:52:13.000When you hear about the Republican Party getting hacked into, or different people's emails getting exploited by someone from outside that's a hacker.
00:52:41.000I guess when I'm trying to ask about this, it's like when I was watching that happen with my system, it's like how is this any different than what is going on For the last hundred years.
00:53:17.000I feel like for some reason it's the exact same thing.
00:53:19.000It is human nature, but I don't understand what your point is.
00:53:23.000Well, I guess what I'm asking here is in the way of the—I just feel like the Russian bot thing was—all of that.
00:53:32.000I feel like the Russian bots is a term for people who don't understand computers in a way, and they've just kind of thrown that out there as a political device.
00:53:43.000I think that Russia, China, Korea— Like every other fucking country that is enabled in a way in which they're so far ahead technologically was involved in all kinds of fuckery and they're still involved in it and will still do that during the election.
00:54:21.000You know, it's like, I felt bad for fucking Childish Gambino that he had a song that had Stay Woke in it, because immediately that song, that was what an amazing song, and it was, that term became dumb immediately.
00:54:34.000But I just feel like All of this that's happening, all of this talk, all of him getting banned, all this stuff, it's all this kind of effect of the world.
00:54:50.000Instead of being out in the world, everyone has gone to this point where it's these groups, these really rich groups, Google and Facebook and Twitter and all this, and everyone has gone to this central point, and now they're lynching people.
00:55:05.000Whether or not you agree with Alex Jones, whether or not you like him, whether or not he's being lynched in the situation.
00:55:29.000As much of a nerd and a technology person as I am, I hate that people have...
00:55:36.000I mean, I'm sure they have their own lives, but the fact that we have become so centralized to these small groups of internet companies like social media and things, and then now...
00:56:28.000I'm sure this is an unpopular opinion, but I just feel like the centralization of society into social media is resulting in a lot of things that are very ugly.
00:56:42.000And I think that the Russian bot thing, the Chinese hackers thing, the Alex Jones issue, the Me Too movement, all that stuff, which I'm behind all the people that were hurt.
00:57:22.000You know, everyone's kind of going to McDonald's to have these conversations as opposed to it being something that is a little more healthy.
00:57:30.000I just find – I just think that people – I think Alex Jones should have always been able to be crazy in his world and he was always nice to me.
00:58:19.000He's got a bunch of these other people that are around him all the time.
00:58:22.000And they're conspiracy theorists as well, but they're 28. And they're hanging out with Alex Jones and he goes on these rants and no one interrupts him.
00:58:31.000It's a broad argument with all of it because I agree, but he was always transmitting.
00:58:37.000He was always like, hey, show me where the Satanists are going to worship to sacrifice children.
00:58:43.000I think what happened is now the idea is that he's influencing people politically, like the whole Podesta, Pizzagate, all that stuff scared the shit out of people when that guy showed up at that pizza place and fired off around and You know,
00:58:58.000and then they wound up arresting them and they really thought there was a dungeon in the basement where they keep their kids.
00:59:03.000Again, centralizing in social media is the cause for a lot of these reactions.
00:59:06.000But is that centralizing in social media or is that people exciting people to go and take action against something that may or may not even be real?
00:59:14.000Are you allowed to yell out fire in a crowded theater, right?
00:59:20.000It's not whether or not he believes in Bohemian Grove, which is real, and he proved it on video back when they had VHS tapes, and I watched it.
00:59:28.000I mean, I've known Alex since 99, or 98, I think, maybe.
00:59:36.000And this is a very big difference between then and what's happening now as far as the reach and influence.
00:59:43.000And I think people are sort of panicking about reach and influence and what it means and how to mitigate it, how to stop people from going into pizza places and shooting them up because they think that something that they heard online is true.
00:59:55.000There's a lot of stuff that people hear online that is just not true.
00:59:59.000You know, the lizards underground or the fucking earth being flat.
01:00:02.000There's a lot of stuff that's just nonsense.
01:00:16.000Our bodies and our minds and our consciousness are becoming synchronized with technology and along the way, like right now, we are in this chaotic, screaming, sweating, crying, pissing, shitting state of chaos And we are looking to figure out how to stop the bleeding.
01:00:37.000We're looking to shove thumbs into dikes.
01:01:00.000The ability to communicate widespread over millions and millions of people instantaneously is a new thing.
01:01:07.000So people have say that never had say before.
01:01:10.000They have influence that never had influence before.
01:01:12.000They have their ability to contribute and they might not have thought these things through and these things catch fire and they run through dry forests like a goddamn Tornado of flames that you see on CNN when the Mendocino fire up in Northern California This is this is what happens with ideas because there's no way to contain them and they don't know what's right or what's wrong I think that what we're going through from the period of 1994 the period of 2018 is like a crazy fire in the middle of a hurricane
01:01:42.000and It's like everything is nuts, and no one knows how to stop it, and no one knows what to do.
01:02:17.000And he didn't think it was irresponsible when he was doing it because he's probably caught up in what he does and he's caught up in the wave of ad-libbing, just like you and I are ad-libbing.
01:02:26.000We didn't even talk about what the fuck we were going to talk about, right?
01:03:02.000I think what I'm trying to articulate, and I'm not doing as well as I wanted to, but...
01:03:07.000I think what my problem is is the synchronization of consciousness is what I'm not into.
01:03:13.000I think just like you have a rut of people who now believe that the Sandy Hook thing is fake and they're calling the families because of this conversation.
01:03:28.000This is where that lawsuit is really coming from because the other people...
01:03:32.000But then you also have another side of it.
01:03:35.000You know, back in the day when they said that Paul McCartney was dead, and they got harassed, but it was on such a small level because there was no way to just email Paul McCartney and say, you're not the real Paul McCartney.
01:03:54.000There was no way to exchange these ideas amongst people constantly in real time on Facebook all day long.
01:04:01.000Which is the centralization that creates these rivers and these ruts that people who don't know what to do and they fall into one rut or another and they kind of become this kind of streamlined thing.
01:04:13.000So I think the way you just described it is very articulate.
01:05:20.000All he wanted to do was make it basically like medical documents where you would say like, you know, this guy had a brain transplant and then brain transplant would be underlined and you clicked on that and it would take you to a link that explained brain transplants and that would be worldwide.
01:08:01.000And I think the idea of Twitter and Facebook and all that is fantastic when it first started.
01:08:05.000But at this point in time, it's gotten so big.
01:08:08.000If it doesn't break up into something where people figure out that they are in control of the internet, not these other people, that's what bothers me.
01:08:15.000Okay, so what bothers you is that someone comes along and says, the people aren't in control of the internet.
01:08:54.000And should we be really clear on that, or is this just a whim?
01:08:57.000Because this is a really important thing.
01:08:59.000If we really are fucking with free speech, we have to be very careful on what we decide Is a valid reason to pull people off of our airways?
01:09:09.000Because if you have stuff on your airways that's far more vile, and you let that stay up because it doesn't have the same reach, like, what is your criteria?
01:11:51.000I believe in protecting children's innocence in a certain way that I agree with YouTube not allowing porn and stuff like that, you know, because my kids look at YouTube all the time.
01:12:46.000There's a big difference between something that you might find gross and something that changes culture.
01:12:52.000So I think what they're worried about is, do you remember when Jim Acosta did that, he went to that Trump rally and they went crazy on him?
01:13:42.000The world has gone into a vortex of crazy, and you're the guy by some fucking freak of chance, whether you're Jim Acosta or Don Lemon or fill in the blank.
01:14:09.000You thought, oh shit, I got to turn that off.
01:14:11.000Yeah, I only have a few seconds to go.
01:14:13.000If you're one of those fucking people and that's your job and we expect them to handle that, that's probably like being Beyonce and The Rock on steroids.
01:15:56.000Like, when we were doing the first record, it was me and Ted Russell Camp, who still plays with me, and Leroy Powell, who doesn't play with me anymore, but he played on that record.
01:17:02.000We were like more Beatles, Stones, Bowie kids musically in the amount of records we listened to and, you know, obsessed over Pink Floyd and stuff, you know, than we were a country.
01:17:13.000So we were kind of trying to blend those two back then.
01:20:35.000Your dad is like a super legend, you know?
01:20:38.000I mean, he's a super, super legend, but you choose...
01:20:42.000To legitimately carve your own path in the wildest of ways.
01:20:45.000It's really interesting how you do that.
01:20:47.000And I think that thoughtfulness that allows you to be free like that is also what allows you to explore these complex issues like censorship or Bitcoin or any of these things that are like, whoa, this is some heavy stuff.
01:21:01.000You have a curious approach to these things and an ability to express who you really are, right?
01:21:08.000Which is what comes out in your music.
01:21:21.000Like, let some person uniquely be themselves.
01:21:23.000And I think this is a real issue with social media.
01:21:27.000The people are so terrified of expressing themselves because they're terrified of the hate they get back But then they get addicted to attacking other people that are failing or other people that are making mistakes And I get I think this again goes with this whole fucking chaos thing that we're talking about before I mean,
01:21:43.000I think we're in the middle of a storm right now And I think that your your take on Alex Jones and Bill Maher's take on Alex Jones and what we're saying here about him it doesn't It doesn't in any way negate arguments that you shouldn't say some of the things he's saying.
01:21:58.000But we also say, human beings, we have to figure this out together.
01:22:02.000And if you start conflict, and one great way to start conflict is to ban and to take people down.
01:22:09.000Call people a Nazi that aren't really a Nazi.
01:22:12.000Like, decide that someone's an alt-right white supremacist.
01:22:14.000This is when they're really not at all.
01:22:16.000They're a liberal and a Democrat, and you know they are.
01:22:18.000You're saying crazy things because you're trying to demonize people and slot them into groups.
01:22:21.000We have to reject that with every fiber of our being because this is tyranny.
01:22:27.000This is a type of group tyranny that although it's not connected to a network like the fucking, you know, the KKK or the Democrats or the Republicans, It's still this chaotic group think thing that happens where we decide to go after people and stop being compassionate,
01:22:44.000stop being just a human being who recognizes that other human beings are flawed and they make mistakes and they do stupid shit.
01:22:51.000But as soon as you oppose them so vehemently for something that really should be treated with curiosity and compassion and maybe a little bit of understanding and mockery, instead of that, there's this anger and this vitriol that we just have to Put a curb on shitty thinking.
01:23:25.000If you want to be that guy who risks his life in the middle of August and take your family through the fucking desert with a couple of jugs of water and you're going to walk and hope you find a job...
01:25:29.000For me, I grew up with my dad, but country came along.
01:25:33.000Once I started living life and I started appreciating the songs, you know what I mean?
01:25:39.000Yeah, like when you start actually kind of understanding the words and all that and like you it just it hits you Yeah, like oh shit this this shit is like the heavy shit Yeah, it's like there's some deep deep fucking emotions to country songs I mean Johnny Cash just his lyrics alone like some of his songs are fucking phenomenal man.
01:25:59.000Yeah, they're phenomenal Yeah, you know, you know what one always blows me away on cash is the man in black still to this thing the lines like, you know What is it?
01:26:10.000The thousands that died thinking that the Lord were on their side.
01:26:13.000And then here's to the hundreds or tens of thousands that died thinking that we were all on their side, like that verse and everything.
01:26:21.000Hey, would you mind looking up who wrote The Man in Black?
01:26:24.000Sorry to ask you that, but I've been dying to know that because I wanted to know if Shel Silverstein was involved or if it was just Johnny Cash that wrote it.
01:27:07.000Shel's like the forgot, he's the guy that brought like the New York sense of humor and really cultured writing style, like the kind of Hunter S. Thompson world.
01:27:25.000Though Cash wrote the signature song, Man in Black, to explain the social conscience behind his wardrobe choices, just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back.
01:27:35.000In fact, he took to black simply because it was easier to keep clean on long tours.
01:30:56.000He wrote that motherfucker of a songwriter.
01:31:00.000And that song is kind of about reincarnation.
01:31:02.000It's like his original song is about one person who lived through these different lives, and then he ends up being a simple drop of rain after the starship.
01:31:59.000And I think that's kind of part of the point earlier, too, is it's just like, man, everybody gets wrapped up.
01:32:06.000You said you were talking about When you were just afterwards, but you were talking about everybody gets sucked up into all these different, you know, fucking confrontations all the time.
01:32:35.000And I think the only answer is there's going to have to be some established decentralization of the internet that returns it to the form in which all can exist digitally as they do physically, just like we do now.
01:32:49.000And we're going to have to figure it out as a society.
01:32:55.000Because one of the things that's interesting is the people at the very top of the heap...
01:32:59.000We always thought were the proponents of free speech.
01:33:04.000We always thought that the repressive people were the right-wing conservative people that wanted to stop progress and stop nudity and people smoking pot and, you know, and Tipper Gore wants to ban rap music.
01:33:50.000But we always thought of it as being the conservative ones that were like the most – The most into suppression of free speech, stop people from swearing, stop the nudity, stop the pornography.
01:34:02.000It was always thought of as being a conservative thing.
01:34:04.000But I would argue today, it's almost like your behavior is more restricted on the left than it is even on the right.
01:34:12.000The right has seemed to be more relaxed in terms of what they're willing to let people do.
01:34:17.000But the left is putting up all these boundaries for what people can and can't say, do and don't do.
01:34:23.000Tom Segura sent me this photograph of some sort of a sketch comedy group where they were trying to figure out what you can and can't do today and what is okay to do in a sketch.
01:34:36.000And a lot of it was about gay people and trans people.
01:34:39.000And can you be a straight cis man playing a trans person?
01:36:25.000You ever seen those hailstorms where they hit those Ohio backyards and fuck up the pool and everybody's in Scott screaming and you're here in the house like it's getting attacked by rocks?
01:38:46.000See, different strokes taught me that.
01:38:49.000Yeah, are these people like legit Boy Scout, you know, instructors or whatever they be who really want to show everybody the way of the woods?
01:39:01.000But just as human beings, anytime you get human beings, anytime you get a certain group of human beings and you leave them alone with large groups of kids, You gotta be super careful with what their motives are and how they handle pressure and how they deal with conflict and how they deal with sex.
01:39:54.000But it's funny how, like, you know, from the day you're born, the day after somebody else's summer camp starts and it kind of kind of generationally goes on forever.
01:40:03.000And you kind of like realize that you're stuck in this like movie.
01:40:49.000If something goes wrong at 4 o'clock in the morning, you want the man who has the courage to stand there with the bulletproof vest and shoot at the bad guys.
01:45:14.000This is like Blade Runner-level shit, in my opinion, in the sense where, at first, it doesn't seem like it's a massive thing, but it's just like, for life, it's that.
01:45:52.000So you're like, the next one should, or at least like the finishing story, they said they want to make a War of the Worlds kind of thing, where it was like all of a sudden these people descend and it's the two opposing kind of parties, which is the David side and then maybe us.
01:47:14.000H.R. Geiger designed all that shit, the space jockey and all that.
01:47:17.000But just stop and think about, they were worried about artificial intelligence back in 1979. And that's like, when you talk to Elon Musk, it's like one of his primary concerns.
01:49:18.000It's so cool to watch him come up and he's got this kind of angle.
01:49:27.000I just love watching him on your show and I just have to say us hanging out and everything all these years later.
01:49:33.000He just has a sense where I feel like, wow, there's a rocket ship in this universe and we kind of speak the same language and it's like a cool vibe kind of having another dude out there who Who has the same sensibilities and like when we hang out,
01:49:49.000you and me and him and everything, I feel like it's, you know what I mean?
01:50:04.000You took me, I came to go see you play and you took us in and then Dave Chappelle played right after you're like, oh yeah, hey, my friend Dave's gonna do a thing and then he came up.
01:50:13.000You killed it, and then he killed it, and that was crazy, man.
01:51:42.000I go to work like a boxer, you know, it's like it's a great like I go to work song So I'm about to work out and this fucking song comes on almost like the universe is letting you know look dude Just just don't try to think this through too much Just press that button the songs there.
01:52:01.000I don't know why it's there You don't know why it's there either stop thinking about it, but it's there right when you needed it that songs there I go to work And then you go to work.
01:52:21.000I mean, to me, the older I get, I just feel like the more appreciative for, like, my dumber self for having gotten through it without more damage being done.
01:54:17.000Some people do a terrible job raising children, and these children go out into the world, and they're just causing damage everywhere they go.
01:54:23.000They're on fire, and they're just running through dry bushes their entire life, right?
01:54:27.000They're creating chaos, and it's from what set them off when they were young, how they evolved.
01:54:34.000To expect everyone to have the same starting point and be judged on your emotional behavior, Your impulsiveness, your dishonesty, or your discipline, to be judged on those as if you all started from the same spot on the board is just crazy.
01:55:51.000We've all broken in little ways in our lives, and we've all lived through it, and we all appreciate other people who have done the same thing.
01:55:58.000And when you get to a point when you get old enough where you realize you can watch when someone Yeah.
01:56:36.000It's about recognizing the best times come when we're nice to each other.
01:56:40.000If you go to a bar and there's a bunch of strange dudes you never met in your life, and an hour later you guys are high-fiving and laughing and hugging each other and you're buying rounds, that's a great time.
01:56:50.000Or you can go to a bar and someone wants to get in a dick-waving competition, next thing you know you got hit in the back of the head by a chair.
01:58:47.000You pursue angles like you chose to pursue lots—like, similar to me, we're similar in this way.
01:58:53.000Like, you chose to pursue all these little different angles of the universe that are in the entertainment business.
01:58:59.000But they are also, like, things you love, like the UFC and then, you know, all the different little—I mean— You've had so many different little angles that you've occupied to land up here, where you get to just talk about all the shit that you love.
01:59:14.000Yeah, but dude, it doesn't make sense even to me.
01:59:16.000I wake up in the morning, like today, I wake up, I go and work out, and I'm sitting there going, what am I doing?
01:59:36.000But like you got – honestly, it's a – you have found your path and it's awesome and you're compassionate and you're here and you weren't in it.
01:59:46.000If you were in it for the money, you'd be somewhere else.
02:00:15.000I've decided, one of the things I've been thinking about recently, especially over the last, like, maybe 10 years of my life, I've decided way less things than I did in the first years of my life.
02:00:25.000It seems to me things just sort of happen.
02:00:28.000It's like the reverse of the Bob Seger thing.
02:00:41.000I mean, they tricked me and they do things and they're smarter and they're, you know, nothing I could do could impress them more than what they can do by watching what I can do and doing it better.
02:00:51.000Well, how about when they do, they fucking grab electronics, they figure it out, they're like, give me that, you don't know how to do this, you gotta go into settings, then you go down here, and you're like, you're eight.
02:02:23.000Listen in on IRC back then like they had to pick up from the hackers like how to do it That was a very very different thing really a time when those all those message boards and all those things came up like Especially like the ability to you play games and talk to people in real time during games to do I'm one of the ways I learned how to type was from Learning how to type in game.
02:02:46.000Yeah, right quick because you got to type quick quake one or like quick.
02:02:50.000I started with quake, too But I had them Quake 2 and Quake 3. Multiplayer option.
02:02:55.000Quake 1. I mean, I was in Doom, so when Quake 1 came out, and Nine Inch Nails is my favorite band ever back then, and still was the influence for me.
02:03:09.000It's funny that Misty, all these years later, she's like, I didn't have a computer, but I went and bought that soundtrack because Trent Reznor did it because she was into Nine Inch Nails.
02:05:50.000You log in and verify yourself, they give you like 30 cents, because that starts you out to be able to just kind of permanently do this in.
02:07:56.000I'm glad you started off that controversial subject of the Alex Jones thing, and I'm really glad that Bill Maher went on a ledge and said that even if you don't agree with someone, you're not supposed to silence their speech.
02:08:08.000You know, I just don't think people are supposed to be alone yelling into the wilderness.
