It's got a good vibe, too, because it's almost like Utah is a secret, because everybody's scared of the Mormons, so they don't go there.
00:01:11.000
But then you get there, and you're like, Jesus Christ, it's beautiful, and these Mormons are so nice.
00:01:21.000
So I don't remember what tour it was exactly, but there were supposed to be 5,000 people to show up.
00:01:27.000
And then we end up getting to the show and there's 17,000 people.
00:01:31.000
So we had to move it outside of the venue, right on the Salt Flats.
00:01:36.000
And I was just like, if this isn't a sign from...
00:01:48.000
So I looked at houses on Zillow and I found one and fixed it all up.
00:01:56.000
It's a good spot for a guy like you, too, because it's chill in comparison to the rest of your life, which is so crazy.
00:02:09.000
I moved, like I said, from Syracuse to Dallas and then Dallas to LA when I was 18. It's a lot for me and I couldn't focus the way that I needed to.
00:02:24.000
Before COVID, there's always something Going on right like 24 7 like it could be 8 in the morning.
00:02:34.000
It could be What time is it right now 2 o'clock something?
00:02:38.000
Yeah, and then you got to go do a podcast or you got to go to like a rooftop pool party or something and You know it being in Utah.
00:02:50.000
It's so Peaceful, like you said, and you get to focus on the music and wake up to the mountain.
00:02:57.000
And the sun sets at 10pm, which is bizarre, right around this time.
00:03:30.000
You were telling me you have an alien friend named Tyler.
00:03:41.000
If you do the right drugs, you can meet the aliens.
00:03:45.000
If you do the right amount of mushrooms in a tank, get in a float tank, you can meet aliens.
00:03:53.000
Like you said, most vulnerable, most susceptible to...
00:03:59.000
We were talking about weed makes you vulnerable and I think for someone like me that's a good thing to think that way.
00:04:06.000
Just look at all the vulnerabilities and just the reality of life and the temporary nature of it which makes me more appreciative.
00:04:19.000
They just bring you to this weird place that's right next door.
00:04:26.000
You get a VIP bracelet, you get to go into another room that's right there all the time.
00:04:32.000
But you can't go in until you get that bracelet.
00:04:41.000
And you don't really catch it until you do like 10, like right off the rip.
00:04:53.000
And me and my producer, Lou, we made a Coachella set for about two hours.
00:05:05.000
A 10-year-old and a 12-year-old are obsessed with Roblox.
00:05:17.000
Yeah, and then I sampled it, and we made a whole two-hour set off of the deal with just a fucking four-to-the-floor kick drum, and it was the time of my life.
00:05:27.000
And I felt like I got that VIP wristband, and I was backstage at Ziggy and Tyler's concert, The Aliens.
00:05:36.000
Do you feel like that sometimes when ideas come to you, when you're fucked up?
00:05:40.000
Like it's almost like it's a gift from somewhere?
00:05:55.000
Because you never wake up and say, today I'm going to write the, you know, congratulations or any song.
00:06:10.000
Like I had, oh, I had like eight Bud Lights, right?
00:06:14.000
And then I took just a tiny bit of shrooms and then here it's like...
00:06:29.000
It is just like a spur-of-the-moment type deal to where you're like, let me...
00:06:35.000
Sing this melody over this beat or let me make this beat even.
00:06:45.000
You can get out of your own way, and you can let ideas come to you.
00:06:49.000
I was talking with this dude, his name's Joe DeSena, he runs a Spartan race.
00:06:56.000
He does a lot of stuff for kids, he's got all these kid programs, these kids do difficult tasks, and they do it over a summer camp, it gets them better.
00:07:05.000
But we were talking about it, and we were talking about being healthy and all the benefits of being healthy, and I was like, there's a lot to that, but there's also a lot to the person who binges and creates something incredible.
00:07:20.000
Some of the ones he doesn't even remember are the best ones, because he was on Coke and drinking a fucking case of Bud.
00:07:26.000
It just blasted out of his head, chain-smoking cigarettes, and he doesn't even remember writing.
00:07:38.000
That is one of the best fucking horror books ever.
00:07:45.000
But, I mean, at the end of the day, it's like, to each his own.
00:07:56.000
I've definitely had ideas without any influence of anything before.
00:08:00.000
But I feel like sometimes things come to you when you're a little high at least, a little drunk, and they're like, I don't know if I would have ever thought about this without the weed.
00:08:15.000
Like drinking rose or drinking Bud Light and then a little bit of just something else.
00:08:22.000
Whether it be smoking a little bit of a J. Because I'm an anxious person.
00:08:28.000
You told me before you're not an anxious person.
00:08:41.000
It's that stroke of genius, and you're like, if I was nothing in my blood right now but just blood, no booze, no anything, would I have thought of that?
00:09:03.000
I think of pot the way I think of wakeboarding.
00:09:06.000
Because when you're wakeboarding and you're on that wave...
00:09:09.000
I don't wakeboard, but when I watch people do it...
00:09:14.000
When they're on that and they're catching those waves, but then when they wipe out, man, they go down hard.
00:09:19.000
It's like you're not going to stay on that board forever.
00:09:21.000
If you get really fucked up, that board's going to flip over and you're going to be on your face.
00:09:25.000
Whenever you rip that big-ass trick, you do the behind-the-back double spin.
00:09:36.000
There's a certain magic that goes into making a record or, you know, if you're a painter, a painting, or if you're a dancer, a fucking cool dance move.
00:09:48.000
Yeah, there's something there that just kicks off.
00:09:51.000
And you can't control it and you can't say when it's going to happen, but it just happens.
00:09:57.000
Whatever that is that makes humans so interested in creating things that other people are going to enjoy.
00:10:06.000
Humans creating things that they know other people are going to enjoy.
00:10:09.000
And if you can just get lost in the beauty of just creating the thing and get out of your own way, then these ideas will come to you.
00:10:16.000
But if you get in your own way, you have less bandwidth for the ideas.
00:10:20.000
And when they come to you, it feels like they aren't even yours.
00:10:27.000
If you have an idea for a new bit or something like that, sometimes they just come from nowhere.
00:10:40.000
Creativity comes from the weirdest part of your brain that no one knows how to...
00:10:47.000
You can do all sorts of things to try to stimulate it.
00:11:01.000
Like you said, it's just really humans creating something that other humans fuck with.
00:11:13.000
When you're in concert and you see 15,000 people rocking out to your song, that has got to be a crazy feeling.
00:11:23.000
Well, whenever, you know, you're on the podcast, everybody's seeing you.
00:11:26.000
Whenever you're kicking somebody in the face, everybody watching.
00:11:33.000
Oh, I realize, finally, I'm not actually just one person.
00:11:50.000
In one moment in time, everybody is there doing the same thing with the same energy, the same good intention.
00:12:10.000
If you think about what kind of alchemy is involved in making the right sounds to make people feel different.
00:12:16.000
Because with a great song, man, you're giving a person a drug.
00:12:25.000
When you're doing that, man, you're hitting that audience.
00:12:31.000
And they're all vibing on this thing that you've created.
00:12:39.000
Because if you didn't know it existed, you would never believe someone could do it.
00:12:44.000
If there was no music at all, imagine a world with no music.
00:12:48.000
They never figured out how to make melodies and bars and songs that you write down.
00:12:53.000
If someone told you, hey man, I'm going to make some sounds, and people are going to lose their shit.
00:13:03.000
I always think about this too, and this is a weird thought.
00:13:06.000
You know how there's famous people throughout history.
00:13:14.000
Think about in Wild West times, when they see a dude in a bar and he's like, oh, you're Crazy Bill, I've seen you.
00:13:26.000
And then even somebody could say, oh, I'm Crazy Bill.
00:13:35.000
Well, there was imposter people all up until the internet.
00:13:38.000
You know, there's like, you can't be a fake Post Malone today.
00:13:48.000
But then you have to think about these stories that people tell and think if it's the imposter or if it's the real dude.
00:13:55.000
There's probably a lot of fuckery when it comes to Wild West stories.
00:14:00.000
Like, oh, this dude was crazy with a battle axe or something.
00:14:04.000
I saw him cut nine dudes in half with one swing.
00:14:21.000
What's a cool name for a dude who swings battle axes?
00:14:40.000
This is what the boats would look like when they would pull...
00:14:45.000
The only way you could see something was someone had to draw it for you.
00:14:53.000
It used to be like Instagram filters, essentially.
00:15:20.000
We have no idea what anybody really looked like.
00:15:23.000
I mean, imagine if there was like this one guy you would go to in the neighborhood and all the ladies were like, you gotta go to him.
00:15:29.000
And like, that's how they would get their picture done.
00:15:32.000
This dude would paint some nonsense version of them.
00:15:55.000
So imagine this is how ballsy people were in like the 1400s.
00:16:00.000
There were people that would get in a boat and travel across a fucking ocean.
00:16:05.000
It would take weeks and weeks and weeks based on a drawing and some shit someone wrote down.
00:16:15.000
Also, there's some salty dogs and some rapscallions.
00:16:23.000
Dude, I was reading about pirates off the coast of South Carolina.
00:16:30.000
It just makes you think, like, Jesus Christ, these are real people that would get, like, real famous dudes who'd get in boats and show up and just fuck people up and steal all their shit.
00:16:57.000
And it looked like you had a bunch of black powder pistols.
00:17:09.000
That's the early 1800s when they came up with a revolver.
00:17:13.000
The Colt came up with a revolver, and they didn't even really put it to use until the Texas Rangers.
00:17:24.000
Basically, he was this badass dude who figured out how to fight the Indians on their turf.
00:17:29.000
They were basically like the Navy SEALs of the Texas Frontier guys who fought against the Comanches.
00:17:36.000
And this guy figured out how to use a revolver.
00:17:44.000
They say, God made man, Samuel Colt made him equal.
00:17:52.000
They're the ones who invented the, I think it was a five-shot revolver.
00:17:56.000
That was the first time they figured out how to fight the Comanches.
00:18:08.000
So they'd take it off, put a new cartridge in, fully loaded, and lock it in place.
00:18:30.000
And even you think about, even before, whenever you had musketeers and shit, and you would just stand in a line...
00:18:39.000
And you would shoot and then a dude behind you would shoot and everybody's just shooting looking right at each other.
00:18:54.000
Like they would show up and blow trumpets when it was time to fight and then they'd go fight each other.
00:19:01.000
You had two guys walk up and talk, go back, and then everybody else would just shoot each other.
00:19:13.000
There was a lot of them would give up and they would surrender and they would hand the man their sword and they would accept it and shake their hand.
00:19:23.000
They had like weird rules of combat that everybody sort of adhered to back then.
00:19:32.000
It's different as fuck, but it's not that long ago.
00:19:36.000
It's like the best you could do is shoot someone with a musket or a cannon just a couple hundred years ago.
00:19:46.000
Yeah, now it's like one nuclear bomb will ruin your whole day.
00:19:55.000
Tyler and Ziggy are looking down at us right now.
00:20:02.000
I think they're like, these dummies are going to do something stupid.
00:20:06.000
If aliens are real, I'm not 100% convinced, but I'm probably like 90% convinced.
00:20:12.000
But if they are real, I leave in the room for bullshit.
00:20:18.000
Show everybody the shirt you're wearing while we're talking about that.
00:20:29.000
I think if they're here, they're not gonna let us.
00:20:34.000
I think they're gonna swoop in and go, hey, hey, hey!
00:20:49.000
Like, even in the Mona Lisa, there's a weird thing or whatever in the background and shit.
00:20:59.000
It's a spike in like, because it's getting pretty weird here.
00:21:03.000
The spike, they think, it's hard to tell because sometimes when people talk about UFOs, a bunch of other people hallucinate or lie.
00:21:13.000
So every time there's a real legit UFO, you get a bunch of nut, just nutcases, who just want to tell crazy shit about being taken aboard spaceships.
00:21:26.000
Probably 16. I was in upstate New York and it would just stay there.
00:21:36.000
My aunt and uncle were very strict and we had to go to bed at a very strict deadline, probably 10 p.m.
00:21:45.000
I was looking out the window with my cousin and it's just a light that just stays there and then just fucking goes off.
00:22:08.000
How strong is this memory when you're looking at it, when you're trying to remember it?
00:22:16.000
For sure something took off and did something that didn't make sense to you.
00:22:20.000
And then in Utah, I mean, there shit happens all the time.
00:22:23.000
I mean, even here in LA. I can't tell you how many times, because I used to live in Tarzana.
00:22:29.000
So, there was like a balcony here, and it looked kind of like...
00:22:43.000
Whenever you think of a force field and it just kind of goes like this and it's kind of like a dome in a circular shape.
00:23:03.000
But I was there with like fucking four other people and they saw it too.
00:23:07.000
The thing about unique events is if a unique event happens and it never happens again, it's hard to remember.
00:23:18.000
But if aliens are visiting us, how often are they doing it?
00:23:22.000
Unique events would probably be what it would be.
00:23:26.000
Once every six months someone sees one somewhere.
00:23:30.000
They probably just know how to evade detection.
00:23:33.000
I mean, if something can travel here from another planet, it's gonna be able to know when they're being watched and when they're not being watched.
00:23:42.000
That's why you gotta wonder if it's like intentional.
00:23:45.000
I think there's enough talk about it now that we're probably gonna find out what it is in our lifetime.
00:23:54.000
I think the government withheld information for whatever reason.
00:23:58.000
Maybe they think it's a threat to the national security to have a bunch of people worried that aliens are flying around us all the time.
00:24:09.000
Maybe they had a conversation and they thought maybe it'd be better to keep people in the quiet or keep them in the dark.
00:24:16.000
Because there's nothing we can do about it anyway.
00:24:18.000
If we just tell them that there's aliens that are visiting us all the time, that's not going to be good.
00:24:23.000
They're not going to pay attention to taxes and mortgage rates and the stock market.
00:24:34.000
So I think little drops, like the recent one they said.
00:24:51.000
They're basically saying we don't know what the fuck it is, but we didn't make it.
00:24:58.000
And I think that's gonna lead to more and more information coming out about it where we're gonna try to get a sense of understanding.
00:25:07.000
You know how much of like all that Roswell, New Mexico shit was true.
00:25:15.000
You gotta wonder if like, oh, we've been hiding this the whole time, or this is the first time for real.
00:25:27.000
I like to think that the people that are in charge at the Pentagon are patriots and they realize it's probably better, especially when you're dealing with the United States in this kind of turmoil that they're in right now.
00:25:38.000
It's crazy between racial turmoil and turmoil with the police and turmoil with people protesting in cities and blocking traffic.
00:25:49.000
They'd be like, no one's even going to notice now.
00:25:56.000
The news cycle of any crazy story like this is only a few days, and then people forget.
00:26:01.000
Or, it's just people already know, and it's just normalization.
00:26:07.000
And you think about movies as just normalizing you to the idea that...
00:26:14.000
Like the Canadian, don't quote me on this, but a Canadian someone in office was like, there's like seven species of aliens in the U.S. government.
00:26:31.000
You know, Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith were right all along.
00:26:41.000
See, people can get elected and still be crazy.
00:26:47.000
When you hear about someone having a really high-profile job and they say something crazy, it doesn't mean they're not crazy.
00:26:53.000
Just because they're the prime minister of some fucking country, they could be out of their mind.
00:27:06.000
Canada's former defense minister claims that aliens are real.
00:27:09.000
Apparently there is a humanoid-esque race of aliens called the Tall Whites living among us.
00:28:02.000
Now, is it because people are just scared and their fucking senses are on heightened alert and they see things that aren't really there?
00:28:10.000
Because when it's dark out and you're tired and you're moving through the hallway, first of all, you might be half asleep anyway, but you hear things, you get scared, your senses get really heightened.
00:28:21.000
And maybe you might see something that's not even really there.
00:28:24.000
It's just your own brain and your paranoia fucking with you.
00:28:27.000
Because it's always happening at night under low light conditions.
00:28:31.000
It's always weird things that are fleeting and then they're gone.
00:28:43.000
No, but your house is just as haunted in the day as it is at night.
00:28:55.000
If you're a girl and you're walking on the beach at night, that's a fucking dangerous place to be, right?
00:29:00.000
There's a lot of psychos out there and serial killers and creeps and rapists.
00:29:17.000
There might be some more creepy guys in the mountain.
00:29:24.000
But I'm saying, your house is just as, this place, this building is just as haunted in the daytime as it is at nighttime.
00:29:39.000
Here's an argument for something being haunted.
00:29:47.000
And apparently, the word is, they killed a bunch of fucking people there.
00:29:51.000
And almost everyone that I know that works there, everyone who's managed it, works there a long time.
00:29:59.000
Like, they see someone in the kitchen, and they go to say something to them, they turn around, and then they turn back again, the person's gone.
00:30:08.000
Like, old friends you haven't seen in forever wandering through the hallway, and they go up the stairs and you can't find them.
00:30:15.000
Now, granted, there's a lot of people who've done a lot of drugs at the Comedy Store.
00:30:22.000
But there's so many stories worldwide of ghosts.
00:30:29.000
I think it's possible that things leave a memory.
00:30:34.000
Like, maybe if you hate someone so much, you leave a memory on the space.
00:30:50.000
Left on material shit like the bricks on the wall.
00:31:12.000
Well, because I'm friends with Zach Bagans from Ghost Adventures, right?
00:31:30.000
And in his museum, so apparently there's a thing called the Dybbuk Box, which is one of the most haunted items in the world, apparently.
00:31:45.000
So we took the glass case off of the Dybbuk box, which is in his museum in Vegas.
00:31:53.000
And he thought it was a sick-ass idea to put the ashes of a lady who died while she was possessed on top.
00:32:10.000
My house got robbed and I had bite marks on my arm.
00:32:16.000
And he hit the wall like I've never seen someone in fear so hard as whenever he touched it.
00:32:28.000
I don't know if it's someone who's dead or if it's a demon or if it's fucking something dimensional.
00:32:37.000
But it's something there that goes bump in the night, I suppose.
00:32:48.000
The Stone Tape Theory is frequently used as a science-y sounding quasi-explanation to explain hauntings.
00:32:55.000
Amateur paranormal investigators use the idea to account for the appearances of images, sound, and apparitions that do not interact directly with people.
00:33:05.000
Instead, they play out like a movie or recording.
00:33:07.000
This is the most commonly termed residual haunting.
00:33:16.000
When you think about an alien sighting, if you saw an alien and you never saw one again for the rest of your life, it would fuck with your memory, even if the alien was real.
00:33:24.000
If a saucer emerged in front of you and then took off, that's the same thing with a ghost.
00:33:29.000
Like if you saw a fucking ghost, if you walked into your basement to go get a screw for something, and you saw an apparition of a woman who's like staring you down.
00:33:39.000
Did you ever see that Guillermo del Toro movie about the lady who's a ghost who adopts kids?
00:34:20.000
She finds these kids in the woods and raises them.
00:34:33.000
No, you know she's a ghost from the very beginning of the movie.
00:34:44.000
You get a creepy mom style, and then you get creepy kids, which are like the double terrifying.
00:34:53.000
I can't say anymore without spoiler alert in it.
00:35:10.000
There's a vampire movie, a foreign vampire movie.
00:35:21.000
That's a vampire movie about vampire kids, right?
00:35:27.000
Is if you saw one, and if they're just real every now and then, you saw one, and it was right in front of you, you're in the woods, you're going to walk your dog, and you see some old man with no legs floating in front of you?
00:36:00.000
Oh, yeah, if you saw some apparition in the woods and then you never saw it again for the rest of your life, it doesn't mean it wasn't real.
00:36:08.000
It just means it's really rare that that happens.
00:36:13.000
Like, imagine if you're an ant your whole fucking life, all you've ever known is this ant hill.
00:36:17.000
Everybody's chilling, working every day, chopping up leaves, going out and getting popcorn or whatever shit it finds.
00:36:23.000
And then one day, some person comes along, like Post Malone, just stomps the fuck out of that anthill.
00:36:29.000
Till that moment, all that thing has ever known was that anthill.
00:36:33.000
Never even knew that it was possible for something that could, because it's been alive for a couple weeks.
00:36:38.000
And during that couple weeks, no one's ever stomped on the anthill.
00:36:42.000
And then you realize that there's no pattern to these things.
00:36:51.000
They can land on the White House lawn tomorrow and take over the world.
00:36:59.000
The new normal is there's alien spaceships that hover over every city and they tell you what to do.
00:37:12.000
But we're, in comparison, probably dumber than aliens are.
00:37:17.000
Like, we're dumber in comparison to aliens than ants are to people.
00:37:30.000
Celestial sightings documented throughout history.
00:38:05.000
I don't think it's impossible that we're a product of genetic manipulation.
00:38:13.000
We just look so different than every other monkey.
00:38:32.000
Yeah, if Lou was here, I got a great friend, Lou.
00:38:35.000
He would talk your ear off about this whole deal.
00:38:38.000
About this to an actual archaeologist yesterday.
00:38:42.000
Yeah, the Nephilim or the Anunnaki from Planet Nibiru.
00:38:51.000
Like there's stuff that he was saying in like, I believe it was like the 1970s where he was deciphering these texts.
00:39:00.000
And one of the things that he said is, this is the craziest one of all.
00:39:05.000
Humans were genetically engineered from lower primates and they were used to harvest gold.
00:39:13.000
And that the Anunnaki needed gold because gold is very plentiful here and very hard to find, very rare on their planet.
00:39:31.000
Unless you're making electronics, like, gold's not the best metal.
00:39:47.000
Probably just someone tricked a chick into thinking it was a good move.
00:39:52.000
Yeah, it's like one movie, she had a diamond and then it popped off.
00:39:58.000
Let me finish what I'm saying because this is where it gets weird.
00:40:00.000
They said that they needed it to hang in their atmosphere to protect them from the sun because they were losing their atmosphere.
00:40:10.000
And one of the things that scientists have suggested is hanging reflective particles.
00:40:17.000
Above above the earth like putting them in orbit all like a reflective dust in orbit so that it would mute out some of the effects of the Sun so what they suggested what he was saying in 1978 is what they suggested in like 2018 Right.
00:40:34.000
So when they're talking about how to fix some of the global warming issues, they were literally saying some of the stuff that was in this book that he was reading, you know, he's deciphering these ancient Sumerian texts from 6,000 years ago.
00:40:50.000
I don't know if his interpretations are right, though.
00:40:54.000
He is just a guy who's a linguist, who studies these ancient languages and reinterprets them, but it's very highly in dispute.
00:41:09.000
But there's a website called SitchinIsWrong.com, and if you go there, it refutes all of his...
00:41:14.000
I don't know who's right or who's wrong, but it's interesting to see the argument.
00:41:17.000
But again, whatever the fuck was going on back then...
00:41:36.000
We could have easily been contacted by some other life form that's similar to us, but that's a million years advanced.
00:41:43.000
We could have been contacted all throughout history.
00:41:47.000
Up until 1860, whatever the fuck it was, all you would have is a drawing and a story.
00:41:58.000
But now, if you look at the last 200 years, it has accelerated like a motherfucker.
00:42:07.000
And there's so much, like, 200 years ago, people would look at The Bronco or anything like that and be like, what the fuck?
00:42:24.000
I mean, that SpaceX thing, they've already figured out how to get something to fly into the sky and then bring it back and land it.
00:42:36.000
And if the aliens come right now, it's probably the best time to come.
00:42:58.000
They can come here if I'm not kicking anybody's ass.
00:43:01.000
Yeah, I'm not even interested in kicking someone's ass from another dimension.
00:43:13.000
Three foot tall, 40 pound dude with a giant bulbous head and like antenna-like fingers and he's explaining how they traverse space and time instantaneously.
00:43:27.000
They're making sounds and you interpret those sounds no matter what language you're in all over the world.
00:43:32.000
You instantaneously interpret what they're saying.
00:43:38.000
They'd be able to engineer the sounds they make.
00:43:41.000
What is this sound and why do I understand what he's saying?
00:43:46.000
They would hit you with some sound that's so complex you would understand exactly what they're saying even though you don't know the language.
00:43:52.000
And everybody would be like, what in the fuck is going on?
00:43:55.000
Oh my god, there's an alien on the JRE. And that's what it would be.
00:44:06.000
I think that's the least of our problems when the aliens come.
00:44:13.000
We're gonna look for some sturdy person with a wide back.
00:44:33.000
They'd be like, listen, you guys are just protein.
00:44:40.000
Yeah, maybe they just exist in some sort of like a redundant system.
00:44:43.000
Dude, they're probably not even fucking material.
00:44:49.000
Well, maybe they figured out a way to make life.
00:44:53.000
So maybe they figured out a way how to make life where you can transfer your consciousness in some eternal mechanical thing.
00:45:17.000
And he is obsessed with downloading his consciousness into a computer.
00:45:22.000
He's obsessed with the idea of technology reaching a point where you could replicate...
00:45:28.000
A human being in a way where you will never die your consciousness will actually transmit to some sort of a Computer or an artificial body or another body that's they've genetically engineered and he believes this is like he's saying you have to look at the Exponential rate of technology right now.
00:45:48.000
But if you go ten years from now Ten years is gonna, the ten years time is gonna be like a hundred years of progress.
00:45:56.000
Ten years after that, a thousand years of progress.
00:45:59.000
Like twenty years from now, I don't know if those are the right numbers, but twenty years from now, or somewhere in that range, we could be looking at artificial life.
00:46:05.000
We could be, thirty years from now, we could be looking at fake people.
00:46:19.000
You don't think Russia is cloning people right now?
00:46:21.000
You don't think China's cloning people right now?
00:46:26.000
Well, if you think of the people that treat human beings with the least amount of respect, if you think of the way they treat their citizens, those people are likely to clone people.
00:46:52.000
It does honestly feel like, oh, everybody's just a gold miner.
00:47:02.000
Everybody, I mean, even you sitting on your phone, you're contributing.
00:47:12.000
You want a new phone next year so you work hard so you can buy that new phone.
00:47:16.000
And you want a Tesla because it's got that big old electronic screen.
00:47:37.000
If there's a little me running around, I tell them a lot of shit I got wrong.
00:47:48.000
But like, I think genetic engineering, they've already definitely done that.
00:47:52.000
They've figured out how to, I think it was China that did some sort of CRISPR experiment on people's DNA that figured out how to make them immune from AIDS, but also simultaneously made them smarter.
00:48:03.000
So it made him immune to HIV. I'm pretty sure that's what it was.
00:48:06.000
What's a CRISPR? Oh, CRISPR is some gene editing tool.
00:48:14.000
But it's a new gene editing tool that they've discovered over the last few years.
00:48:20.000
They understand genes better, I believe because of bacteria.
00:48:25.000
But they figured out how to make a tool that allows you to edit genes.
00:48:30.000
Clustered, regularly interspaced, short, palindromic repeats.
00:48:39.000
It's a family of DNA sequences found in the genomes of prokaryote organisms, bacteria, and archaea.
00:48:54.000
These sequences are derived from DNA fragments of bacteriophages that had previously infected the prokaryote.
00:49:15.000
Ah, so I know exactly what you're talking about.
00:49:21.000
So this gene editing tool, whatever the fuck that means.
00:49:27.000
They can edit genes, and they're in the process.
00:49:35.000
I don't understand the process, but I know that they have a process.
00:49:43.000
The Cas9 protein forms a complex with the guide RNA in a cell.
00:49:49.000
The complex attaches to a matching genomic DNA sequence adjacent to a spacer yellow segment.
00:50:03.000
I'm reading this and I don't know what the fuck I'm saying while I'm saying it.
00:50:13.000
Is it like a wrench or is it like a fucking computer?
00:50:25.000
It's just a robot hand that comes in and fucks it.
00:50:28.000
It's a dude with tweezers and a fucking hot dog.
00:50:32.000
I wonder what other countries are doing, what kind of crazy shit they're trying.
00:50:37.000
If they're trying to create new humans, super humans.
00:50:53.000
But if it was, the law of improvement would state that if something's possible...
00:50:57.000
If something's possible, someone's going to make it happen.
00:50:59.000
When we detonated two nuclear bombs, we could have just...
00:51:11.000
Like, that could happen, and it could happen quick.
00:51:24.000
If someone could really get a hold of a CRISPR and create like a Thor, create like a legitimate superhuman person, and you could just develop a whole race of those, it would just be like instant game over.
00:51:46.000
Or they just come out like orcs in Lord of the Rings.
00:51:52.000
They come out like orcs in Lord of the Rings where they just cut the pus and then the fucking...
00:52:05.000
Yeah, you never seen Saruman in the pit of Helm's Deep?
00:52:19.000
You could take a half a day watching Lord of the Rings.
00:52:24.000
Yeah, those Lord of the Rings movies, man, come on.
00:52:27.000
Those orcs and those goblins, they were the scariest fucking thing ever.
00:52:36.000
It's like a metal band, but the lead singer is a goblin.
00:52:44.000
Can you pull up a picture of the lead singer of Necrogoblicon?
00:52:58.000
He reminds me of the goblin that tortures Frodo.
00:53:17.000
Can you imagine if a goblin became a rock star and everybody thought it was cute, but it really was a fucking goblin.
00:53:32.000
Like, his biggest song is, like, he has a normal job and he has a crush on this girl.
00:53:58.000
Why couldn't they be ugly looking aliens, octopus looking monsters?
00:54:17.000
So they have fingers like this and that's why all their guns are like this, right?
00:54:24.000
But who's to say that aliens don't control their guns with their booty hole or something weird?
00:54:33.000
Aliens can control their guns with whatever appendage they have.
00:54:41.000
Well, I think the real thing would come from...
00:54:46.000
How are they manipulating matter to make things, right?
00:54:52.000
Can they do things with their mind that we can't imagine?
00:54:57.000
If it's possible to make noise and you can hear noise, what is that?
00:55:01.000
It's just some invisible shit flying through the air.
00:55:04.000
I'm saying it to you, you understand what I'm saying?
00:55:07.000
Why do we think that that's the only thing that's possible?
00:55:10.000
There could be some really weird abilities that things have to manipulate matter that maybe evolve over hundreds of thousands of years.
00:55:23.000
I'm gonna hit you with my fucking booty hole gun and destroy a fucking block.
00:55:28.000
Maybe it's like super normal for aliens to like pee on each other the way dogs do.
00:55:34.000
You know, maybe aliens just walk up and just piss on each other all the time.
00:55:41.000
But you know, all we can do is just sit and drink beer until...
00:55:49.000
I'm amazed that they, if they really did have UFOs this whole time, that they kept it such a good secret.
00:55:56.000
Like, I don't want to encourage that kind of behavior, but I gotta say I'm impressed.
00:56:01.000
If the government really kept their fucking mouth shut for that long, like, the new government is not gonna do that.
00:56:07.000
These are like those old school Vietnam vets with fucking craggy skin and tough guy voices.
00:56:15.000
Millennials that take those positions, we're going to have a real hard time keeping secrets.
00:56:26.000
How do you feel about the Battle of Los Angeles?
00:56:51.000
And then we shot at it and it wouldn't go down.
00:57:04.000
And they're hiding it, or it's something earthly, terrestrial.
00:57:22.000
1942. 1942. So what year did Oppenheimer first detonate the bomb?
00:57:27.000
I know the Manhattan Project was already in operation by 1942, but had they detonated the first bomb yet?
00:57:39.000
I bet it was around that time, a couple years later maybe.
00:57:42.000
I bet in that time period when human beings start in a race to try to split the atom, that's what I bet the alien is like, hey, hey, hey, we got a live one.
00:57:56.000
Yeah, the 1940s, they were all doing that shit, right?
00:58:02.000
And the aliens were probably well aware that there was a race going on.
00:58:08.000
If I had like a planet, like imagine if you're a researcher and you have a whole planet and on this planet They've lived for millions and millions of years, but the most advanced thing is like a monkey person.
00:58:23.000
You know, like an Australopithecus or something.
00:58:25.000
And they go, listen, we know where this is going.
00:58:31.000
Let's just fucking sprinkle a little bit of us and them.
00:58:37.000
Yeah, with the wrench or the little tongs with the hot dog.
00:58:50.000
There's something called, I think it's called Iridium.
00:58:54.000
It's really rare on Earth and really common in space.
00:58:58.000
And there's a thick layer of it around 65 million years ago, and it's just a giant crater in the Yucatan.
00:59:08.000
There's some other theories about how long they lasted, which ones died off, which ones.
00:59:21.000
Bro, one ate a kid at Disneyland a couple years back.
00:59:35.000
Playing near the water in this fucking dinosaur.
00:59:42.000
They've done a great job making sure there's not monsters living in the pond.
00:59:58.000
Bro, these people are standing just a few feet away from a goddamn dinosaur with a brain the size of a quarter.
01:00:04.000
That thing doesn't give a fuck about you or your babies or your kids.
01:00:10.000
You're lucky that dinosaur doesn't just bum rush you.
01:00:17.000
There's a video one in Florida walking across a golf court.
01:00:26.000
They're out there playing golf, and a legitimate dinosaur walks by.
01:01:08.000
You're out there living in Florida, you live with monsters.
01:01:14.000
You think about it too, it's so interesting to think about.
01:01:17.000
Like, even in Florida, but in Australia, the spiders, the house spiders, like I see a spider, he's like this big.
01:01:31.000
In Australia, the average spider is like this fucking big.
01:01:41.000
My Australian friend Adam Greentree is always trying to get me to go out there and go camping with him.
01:02:05.000
It's so bizarre to think, like, and you've seen the...
01:02:09.000
There's big-ass grasshoppers that are, like, this big!
01:02:18.000
You know, I didn't find out until a few years ago.
01:02:24.000
Dude, he's eating a full carrot like an infant, like a toddler.
01:02:33.000
It's like he's screaming through a traffic cone.
01:02:49.000
One of them's pretty, and one of them we fucking swat every chance we get.
01:03:09.000
I never would have thought that thing was a monster.
01:03:16.000
You just saw a grasshopper eat a carrot like a fucking four-year-old.
01:03:34.000
It's biting into the back of the spine of the mouse and killing it.
01:03:42.000
It's burrowing itself into the body of the mouse.
01:04:09.000
But if the mice knew jujitsu, maybe my cat would have died.
01:04:16.000
They don't have a chance, but the centipede's not that much bigger than the mouse.
01:04:37.000
Those murder hornets, remember they were trying to scare us with those?
01:04:41.000
That was right during the COVID. You saw Tiger King and then Murder Haunted.
01:04:46.000
But then the honeybee figured out how to vibrate all around it and kill it with heat.
01:04:57.000
And how do they know how to work together to overheat the...
01:05:04.000
Utah's the hive state, so bees are smart as shit.
01:05:11.000
There's something connected to bees and aliens.
01:05:15.000
Well, how come they all know how to make that fucking hive?
01:05:21.000
They just come out knowing, like, let's fucking go.
01:05:24.000
Imagine all over the world, this one being knows exactly the kind of shape to make.
01:05:42.000
Is it pollen that makes the stuff that they use for wax?
01:05:46.000
Is that what they get, or is it an excretion from their own excretion?
01:05:50.000
So they eat, and then they make this excretion, and then they literally build a house with their own spit.
01:06:16.000
And there's an added benefit of knowing it's killing your body.
01:06:50.000
You know, that's the crazy thing is we need bees to make other plants.
01:06:54.000
Like, when you find out about pollination, you're like, what?
01:06:59.000
The bee gets it on their body and then they go to another plant and it pollinates it?
01:07:32.000
But if they were big, they would be our biggest enemy ever.
01:07:35.000
That would be the most terrifying thing on the planet is a horse-sized bee.
01:07:44.000
Huge colonies of horse-sized bees that come out of the mountains like demons.
01:07:56.000
Do what those Japanese hornets do, where they cut those honeybees' heads off.
01:08:02.000
Imagine if there was something out there doing that to us.
01:08:08.000
They climb on top of the back of the honeybee and they bite their head off.
01:08:20.000
And then sometimes motherfuckers get their heads cut off.
01:08:22.000
Dude, there's a terrifying one, that if it was a horror movie, like if you were a honeybee, it would be the worst, like, Conan the Barbarian movie ever.
01:08:31.000
They swarm in, and these murder hornets grab ahold of these honeybees and just chop their heads off.
01:08:37.000
And they're trying to get in, I think, to get to the...
01:08:59.000
And they just run up on these honeybees and cut their heads off.
01:09:17.000
And there's these weird wars that go on with these murder hornets and honeybees.
01:09:28.000
Dude, it looks like a fucking Tony Hawk skate video.
01:09:37.000
Do you think that this is like a murder for hire scene?
01:09:49.000
You got these hornets and you have murdered bodies.
01:10:01.000
If that's what we're watching, maybe they did set this up.
01:10:04.000
Maybe they brought in murder hornets to an active honeybee colony.
01:10:18.000
It's not like one guy, they're like, bro, I'm gonna have a fucking double XL cone.
01:10:25.000
No one has cones like, you know, like some wheels on cars that are just so big.
01:10:32.000
They all know how to do it all over the world, too.
01:10:36.000
We're just lucky that little thing is that size.
01:10:53.000
You say a foot long, I say you're probably right.
01:10:57.000
I bet you in dinosaur times those fuckers were huge.
01:11:09.000
It gave me something that was actually alive recently they thought was extinct, so that's not...
01:11:50.000
He keeps giving me this thing called Wallace's Giant Bee, which was two and a half inches.
01:12:13.000
That's a tarantula hawk that's in front of the skull.
01:12:32.000
He has vineyards, and he sees these fuckers up there.
01:12:38.000
Yeah, if we think about history as exponential, then these fuckers have to be 11 inches exactly.
01:13:16.000
I want to think there's like some fucking seropods that are technically bugs.
01:13:34.000
Yeah, there was some creepy old bugs back in the day.
01:13:41.000
It's different, so I guess it's like a lobster and crabs are technically insects.
01:13:46.000
That's what the divers call them, they call them bugs.
01:13:48.000
There are bigger ones of those than this largest dragonfly that's showing me.
01:13:52.000
I feel like there's got to be a crab or a lobster that's bigger than that.
01:14:08.000
If that was trying to climb in your asshole, you'd be very unhappy.
01:14:48.000
I just found out a few years ago that When locusts come and they swarm into an area and ruin cornfields and shit like that, those are grasshoppers.
01:15:01.000
Some weird change happens to grasshoppers and they become locusts.
01:15:09.000
Maybe we're trying to write it down as some sort of technical...
01:15:18.000
Hormonal change inside the animal, but maybe that is.
01:15:21.000
Every now and then they get possessed by demons, and we're just trying to figure it out.
01:15:24.000
What makes harmless little green grasshoppers turn into brown crop-chomping clouds of swarming locusts?
01:15:31.000
Yep, according to a study published this week in Science, it took just two to three hours for timid grasshoppers in a lab to morph into a gregarious locusts.
01:15:42.000
Into gregarious locusts after they were injected with serotonin.
01:15:47.000
So it changes, this chemical changes what they are.
01:16:01.000
If you were on your bike and your face hit that grasshopper, you might get knocked off the bike, right?
01:16:13.000
If you hit a bird with your face while you're driving your bike, you're probably gonna fall down.
01:16:19.000
You might be able to take it if you get the wiggle of the bike, keep your wits about you.
01:17:01.000
You want to let everybody know you're not fucking around!
01:17:21.000
What does it feel like when you're driving around that thing?
01:17:32.000
If you wanted to go to the king of the custom car, the king of the expensive luxury car, it's Rolls Royce.
01:18:01.000
You can't put that blue light inside the wheel well.
01:18:16.000
A lot of people should not put blue light in the wheel well of their classic Bronco.
01:18:28.000
Because there's a certain charm about Broncos that I think a lot of people understand.
01:18:42.000
That's a 92 Ford Explorer, ladies and gentlemen.
01:18:45.000
You got a 92 Ford Explorer with those kind of crazy gull wing doors.
01:18:57.000
I think the person who did those wing doors the best is Tesla.
01:19:00.000
That Tesla X. Yeah, the gull wings are gangster.
01:19:04.000
It goes straight up in the air and then it comes straight down.
01:19:18.000
Maybe you just do dance mode during December and then it's Christmas.
01:19:23.000
Tiffany Haddish, back in the days we were allowed to go to the Comedy Store, Tiffany Haddish was in the parking lot and she had her car on dance mode.
01:19:30.000
She had it playing music and the car was dancing and she was dancing in front of it and a bunch of us were dancing too.
01:19:53.000
This is what happens when you get super smart dudes and you give them too much free time.
01:19:58.000
And you're like, what else do you guys want to do?
01:20:00.000
And they're like, Elon, what we want to do is we want to make it dance.
01:20:07.000
We want to make it dance for Christmas, Halloween, every holiday.
01:20:18.000
When you're in one of those, it doesn't even feel like a car.
01:20:23.000
You're in some, oh, this is what the future of cars is.
01:20:35.000
I think they're gonna get so good at making those things not crash that will completely eliminate auto accidents.
01:20:58.000
I think always, and I can't speak for the next generation, but I think I will always, until I die, drive my motor vehicle.
01:21:13.000
Because think, you're younger than me, but there will be people younger than you.
01:21:16.000
And 10, 20 years from now, they'll be dealing with a totally different reality.
01:21:21.000
Like, there's a lot of kids today that are just used to Uber, right?
01:21:24.000
They just use Lyft, or they use Uber, and they barely drive anywhere.
01:21:28.000
Avoids drunk driving, doesn't cost that much, they just travel around with other people driving them.
01:21:34.000
So if all of a sudden it comes along that you can get a car...
01:21:36.000
That can drive you around and with 100% certainty not crash into other cars?
01:21:43.000
They're going to say, hey people, we think about how many people die from car accidents every year.
01:21:50.000
What we would do to bring those people back, all you have to do is not drive your car and that's how it happens.
01:21:59.000
It doesn't happen just like this is what people do.
01:22:01.000
They get more and more control over their environment and more and more control over safety and more and more control over what you can and can't do because you don't want to violate the safety protocols.
01:22:12.000
If everybody else is using the autonomous car and you're in your crazy Bronco and you smash into someone, that's your fault.
01:22:20.000
If you didn't have that goddamn Bronco, Post Malone.
01:22:25.000
If I'm gonna die on an airplane, I would rather know that I'm gonna die rather than be completely out of control of the situation.
01:22:35.000
I wonder what that would be like if you were asleep.
01:22:41.000
You took two of those ambience and just fucking crashed.
01:22:54.000
Oxygen masks are falling down from the ceiling.
01:23:01.000
But then you just wake up in another dimension.
01:23:03.000
If you knew how to fly a plane, everything would be different.
01:23:08.000
If you knew how to fly an airplane, the anxiety of flying would be gone.
01:23:24.000
Yeah, but I think when shit goes wrong, it goes really wrong.
01:23:32.000
But then as a passenger, it's kind of like being with a crazy driver.
01:23:44.000
But then, I mean, turbulence is uncontrollable.
01:23:51.000
You feel more comfortable having known if this crazy driver goes crazy, you can grab the wheel and know how to drive.
01:24:05.000
Drinking champagne, hanging with your buddies on a plane, thinking everything's groovy.
01:24:22.000
What if they both get sick with some crazy disease?
01:24:24.000
You only stopped in Hawaii for one night, but something that the fucking pilots ate.
01:24:29.000
They're sick with a contagious disease and they're in the front.
01:24:37.000
Yo, we just made a fucking dope ass movie right now.
01:24:42.000
Doesn't it, Chuck Palahniuk, doesn't he have a movie or a book?
01:24:46.000
Here's a short story where a person turns into a werewolf on a plane.
01:25:14.000
He had a collection of horror stories, didn't he?
01:25:37.000
Let me see if I can find the thing about the...
01:25:43.000
Had him on the podcast for a very interesting guy.
01:25:59.000
The zombie disease before taking off and then the pilots become zombies on the flight.
01:26:08.000
A 13-year-old Chihuahua Indian girl transformed as if a werewolf aboard the plane and caused a crash.
01:26:16.000
She relates her theory to Missing Link who tells her the girl in question was his sister.
01:26:55.000
But I was saying, he's saying it to Kevin Spacey.
01:27:06.000
That's one of the best answers anybody's ever given to anything.
01:27:09.000
One of the most self-aware answers anybody's ever given to anything.
01:28:04.000
I like creepy movies supernatural or with monsters because I know they're bullshit that way.
01:28:08.000
Like ones that are like too close to humans, to actual human beings.
01:28:13.000
I like kind of like the slasher type vibe to where it's like, oh, there's a dude in a mask that wants to fuck everybody up.
01:28:21.000
Because I know if it was my house, I'd just pop the fucker and then burn him.
01:28:45.000
My dad used to scare the fuck out of me and he knew Michael Myers scared the shit out of me and for Halloween he put the mask on and scared the living shit out of me.
01:29:11.000
There was like fucking eight of those motherfuckers.
01:29:28.000
It got to a point where Freddy Krueger was fighting Jason.
01:29:32.000
And the only motherfucker that could kill Jason was fucking Freddy Krueger.
01:29:49.000
Someone might have edited this cleverly or something.
01:29:57.000
Well, why don't you Google whether or not it's a movie?
01:29:59.000
Well, I did, and I just clicked on the first thing that popped up.
01:30:19.000
Yo, people ask for, is Jason stronger than Freddy?
01:30:37.000
There has to be some fanfic of Leprechaun and Jason.
01:30:42.000
But before COVID, you could probably walk into any of those horror movie-making producer's office and pitch that idea.
01:30:51.000
And they'd be like, oh shit, why didn't we think of that?
01:31:19.000
I was trying to find the newest one the other day.
01:31:21.000
I was trying to watch something crazy and mindless.
01:31:29.000
Oh my god, the prophecy will be concluded on the 13th.
01:31:39.000
This is the trailer for the fucking movie, Jamie.
01:31:44.000
You saying that, us looking it up, everybody laughing.
01:31:58.000
Like if you're a girl, you go home, if you're a groupie, and you go home with the goblin or the...
01:32:13.000
It would be a great Stephen King book right there.
01:32:24.000
There's a great Stephen King movie about a vampire that flies around at night in his own plane.
01:32:29.000
Great in terms of, like, let me just, like, stress.
01:32:38.000
Like, man, this is like they made it yesterday.
01:32:43.000
You know, like a classic Francis Ford Coppola movie or a Stanley Kubrick movie.
01:32:58.000
And then the movie is this vampire just flying around fucking people up and then he covers his plane during the day and he just lays out there and they have to figure out what the fuck's going on.
01:33:09.000
And there's this vampire with his own plane flying around fucking people up.
01:33:25.000
It was like a made-for-network television miniseries type of deal.
01:33:36.000
That was the one with the guy from Rocky Horror Picture Show, right?
01:33:50.000
Which is like, believe it or not, scary at the time when it came out.
01:34:19.000
Yeah, there's something about that that might actually be creepier.
01:34:30.000
The thing about that is, like, if you looked into a sewer and you saw a man, like, that's a real thing.
01:34:42.000
Yeah, the thing about the new one is it scares the fuck out of you, but when it opens its mouth and then clamps down and bites a kid's arm off...
01:34:52.000
Do you know Michael Myers' mask was Will Shatner?
01:35:06.000
But Michael Myers' mask was like a Will Shatner...
01:35:11.000
It was supposed to be Captain Kirk, apparently, but...
01:35:31.000
There's something about someone wearing a mask too, like that kind of mask.
01:35:46.000
We're all scared of some super powerful demonic shit that's outside of our control.
01:35:57.000
Like these people that have taken selfies at the Grand Canyon.
01:36:01.000
And they're like posing like, look, and then all of a sudden...
01:36:04.000
What if this little demon is just waiting for a moment like that?
01:36:23.000
When I say it's really good, I don't mean it's really good.
01:36:28.000
I mean, it's really good because it's kind of schlocky and crazy, and you're watching this fucking...
01:36:39.000
The vampire has so much power, he has to do what the vampire says.
01:36:50.000
There's another book that's really good that Stephen King did about aliens called The Tommyknockers.
01:36:55.000
That's about a UFO that was like buried in the in the ground near a town and its energy started fucking everybody up like it was it was messing with people and messing because there was this this thing that was right and that was a great book that they made a movie out of it but the movie didn't really kind of capture what the book was about.
01:37:20.000
Yeah, radiation from some outer space craft fucking with all these people.
01:37:55.000
It's literally like parallel Superman, but if he was bullied and treated like shit and he was angry.
01:38:07.000
If you had that power, but you were angry instead of wanting to help people.
01:38:16.000
Yeah, imagine if you're like super fucking annoying, but you're also super powerful.
01:38:24.000
You're from another planet, but you smell weird and the girls here don't like you.
01:38:45.000
Would he lay low or would he be like, I am God?
01:38:50.000
He would be beating girls off his dick 24 hours a day and he wouldn't have a chance to save the world.
01:39:01.000
They don't want that DNA. Oh yeah, it's like a superhero show.
01:39:04.000
Yeah, but it's like, superheroes are like celebrities.
01:39:12.000
But if you were the only one, too, you would be, like, the king of the planet.
01:39:20.000
Well, that was always my problem with the Watchmen.
01:39:23.000
Not my problem, but, like, an interesting part of the Watchmen story was Dr. Manhattan.
01:39:55.000
For a while, you could be cavalier about hiding your hogs.
01:40:00.000
You didn't have to go to showing the hog in order to get ratings.
01:40:04.000
But now, goddammit, with Netflix, they can do anything.
01:40:09.000
But in that movie, it was like, remember when they had Dr. Manhattan?
01:40:12.000
Like, you got out of the shower or something like that.
01:40:18.000
So if you went just to see a superhero movie, and you're out there with your girl...
01:40:22.000
You're having some popcorn, drinking some Diet Coke, enjoying this movie, all of a sudden you see a big old blue dick that you did not expect.
01:40:46.000
It's like the perfect tits aren't like triple E fake boobs, right?
01:41:03.000
You gotta stop right there and don't be greedy.
01:41:30.000
They incorporate technology inside of human beings.
01:41:33.000
When they figure out how to put processors inside of human beings and make you smarter, they figure out a way to connect your brain, connect it through the air with the internet.
01:41:45.000
That's the next move is your wallets in your body.
01:41:49.000
There was a video, and I don't know if it was fake.
01:41:52.000
Jamie, there was a video where there was a corporation that was, they convinced their employees to get a microchip in their arm.
01:42:05.000
And they used it to, like, buy things at lunch, and they could use it to open doors.
01:42:10.000
Dude, they stuck this thing in their fucking arm.
01:42:14.000
So they have, like, this RFID chip in their arms.
01:42:17.000
Like, if you want to work there, you have to get it in your arm.
01:42:28.000
We need to stick a fucking electronic roach inside your body.
01:42:58.000
Bro, there's a fucking company and these people are lining up to get this shit injected into their body.
01:43:11.000
I can't believe everyone's willing to get this thing inserted in their fucking body.
01:43:25.000
I think I read about it once, but they might have been doing proof of concept to show this could work for other companies.
01:43:34.000
Almost like those Amazon Go stores where you could just walk in, grab what you want, and leave.
01:43:40.000
That your chip knows how much money you have and it just scans the scanner or whatever on the way out.
01:43:55.000
It's like 10 grand in chip debt and then they gotta fucking take your fucking hand.
01:44:03.000
We are here to collect money from you, Pulse Malone.
01:44:30.000
That would be a great Stephen King book, right?
01:44:32.000
A goblin that tricks people into thinking it's a man in a mask.
01:44:35.000
How about a goblin with a microchip that runs out of money?
01:44:38.000
And then he has to go on the run from his fucking...
01:44:46.000
You get a little bit of Lord of the Rings, you get a little bit of Iroh, you get all that shit.
01:44:50.000
He has to tell people, I keep my phone off most of the time because his debt collectors just blow my phone up.
01:44:57.000
I only turn it on a couple minutes a day just to check my messages.
01:45:08.000
The advantages of implants over cards is their permanence.
01:45:12.000
They are unlikely to be lost and are non-transferable.
01:45:16.000
Businesses do not need to worry about theft or access details to the same degree because to do so would involve mutilation and be much more obvious.
01:45:36.000
You mean someone stealing your chip so they could cut it off your body.
01:45:40.000
From a business perspective, it also allows a more precise tracking of employees due to the in-body nature of an implant over a car.
01:45:49.000
So listen to this, but this statement is so bizarre.
01:45:54.000
Businesses do not need to worry about theft or...
01:45:58.000
Of access details to the same degree because to do so would involve mutilation and be much more obvious.
01:46:07.000
You don't have to worry about someone cutting that chip out of your fucking hip and using it to open all the building and stealing all the information because that would be obvious.
01:46:26.000
You're sitting around at your house thinking, I can't believe I let these motherfuckers inject this thing in my hip.
01:46:37.000
If you're overdue on your balance, it would just irritate you.
01:46:42.000
There would be something that would irritate you to the point of insanity.
01:47:01.000
You don't want us to involve mutilation in this fucking...
01:47:15.000
Yeah, if they were trying to sell that fucker, it's not working.
01:47:19.000
That is the least soothing way to say no one's gonna steal the chip.
01:47:38.000
They don't even have a really good reason for you to do it.
01:47:57.000
What happens if you play rugby and the chip breaks inside your arm?
01:48:01.000
It says you can take it out just as easy as a splinter.
01:48:12.000
Oh my god, they would just have to Bowie knife it out of you.
01:48:22.000
Is there one of those where someone gets a chip?
01:48:24.000
I think every episode of Black Mirror, they have a chip.
01:48:28.000
Black Mirror's figured out everything that's gonna happen, everything that's gonna go wrong.
01:48:32.000
You had the cloning thing earlier with that cloning episode that dude had, remember?
01:48:42.000
That was the one where the guy was the tyrant, right?
01:48:51.000
I like the video game one where he goes stays at that old mansion and he just goes fucking nuts.
01:49:01.000
How long before they're going to make an artificial Post Malone that looks just like you?
01:49:15.000
I think it's gonna be a long road before they figure out a way to make an artificial thing that's creative.
01:49:25.000
Well, they try to make computers make music all the time.
01:49:29.000
There's something that we do, like we were talking about earlier, when you're doing something, we, I mean humans, that makes other people happy, That thing is hard to define.
01:49:46.000
Like, you listen to Eye of the Tiger, and you want to start running?
01:49:53.000
If you were a kid, when I was, when Rocky III came out, and that fucking song comes out, holy shit!
01:50:05.000
What are my chances of the artificial postie sitting here while I take a piss?
01:50:24.000
If you have bulging discs or herniated discs, you've got to take care of those.
01:50:29.000
What you definitely can't do is fuck them up worse.
01:50:35.000
They're real close to being able to fix that, too.
01:50:39.000
They're replacing them with these titanium discs that move around.
01:50:42.000
They're not perfect, but it's better than having degenerative disc disease and having massive pain all the time.
01:50:58.000
I'm mad at chips in your hands that you have to mutilate to get out.
01:51:06.000
But a piece of metal instead of a bone isn't harmful.
01:51:17.000
It's just something to replace something that's broken.
01:51:21.000
Like if your hand gets bitten off by a shark, and they say, listen, you have two options.
01:51:25.000
You can have no hand, or we'll make you a hand that looks exactly like your old hand, Luke Skywalker style.
01:51:32.000
When you put that on, you can feel with it and everything, but it just won't be a real hand.
01:51:34.000
No, I mean, that's totally fine, too, if it's controlled by your brain.
01:51:40.000
You wake up in the middle and it's choking you.
01:51:53.000
How strong would your goddamn hand be if it was made out of metal and wires and shit?
01:52:18.000
Metal-handed people are people too, and they would want to enter into MMA and fuck people up with their iron arms.
01:52:29.000
But he's got some, I just was looking, he had this crazy hook thing.
01:52:37.000
So he has different prosthetics that he does different things with.
01:52:42.000
He's got a carbon fiber articulating hand and a carbon fiber leg.
01:53:16.000
If there's a way for somebody to control that...
01:53:19.000
And it's not just your nerves or whatever controlling it.
01:53:25.000
Instead of it's hooked up to the cloud or something somewhere.
01:53:37.000
But I would imagine it's probably a pretty magical experience to play in like a really good guitar.
01:53:49.000
That analog, visceral, satisfying feeling of doing something, that exists in the car world, too.
01:53:56.000
If you're driving like a 1969 Porsche 911, those air-cooled cars, they weigh like 2,000 pounds, and it's a...
01:54:04.000
It's got this crazy weird mechanical sound to it.
01:54:07.000
Bro, there's a connection you have to that that you're not gonna get once you start adding technology.
01:54:14.000
That weird thing, that very analog thing that you get from like...
01:54:29.000
There's a thing, man, when you can just fucking nail a thing that makes you feel.
01:54:43.000
A new car's going to be cool as fucking awesome, but it's not going to make you feel better.
01:54:57.000
You're not going to get that off a spaceship that's autonomous.
01:55:26.000
And like the chip, it's gonna go wrong sometimes.
01:55:47.000
Like, if you have to have a piece or a disc in your spine removed with a metal plate instead of a metal plate with a microchip in it, that's the total difference.
01:56:03.000
But what if that microchip made you feel better?
01:56:06.000
What if they put that microchip in you and all of a sudden...
01:56:11.000
What it is, is essentially new software management of your body.
01:56:15.000
Your mind will stay the same, Post Malone, but your body will now be in control of this perfect system that's going to figure out what it needs and what it doesn't need, work it all out.
01:56:29.000
You don't have to worry about your body anymore.
01:56:40.000
If you're living a shitty life, you're like, I fucking hate delivering for Postmates.
01:56:50.000
And then all of a sudden this little thing comes along and says, give control of your body to the state.
01:56:58.000
But our microchip will control all of your biology to the point where you no longer need to go to the doctor.
01:57:04.000
You don't need health insurance because you're never going to get sick.
01:57:23.000
Or is it better if you have some technology that keeps you from ever getting any disease ever, but it's embedded inside your body?
01:57:43.000
So, it gets in your cells, makes its way through to your brain, and fucking explodes.
01:57:50.000
What they're willing to do today with technology and what they're experimenting on, what we're seeing in these videos is just a tiny amount of what's possible for them in the future.
01:58:03.000
I mean, they could Man, we could have insane technology of changing human bodies inside our lifetime.
01:58:25.000
But like we were talking about earlier, it comes to, I guess, generation-wise.
01:58:31.000
Because if you have to pantomime a cell phone, how do you do it?
01:58:53.000
So, maybe later comes a time, because like I said, I will never drive a fully autonomous car.
01:59:04.000
But I'm sure there's someone years down the line that will be like, oh, fuck yeah.
01:59:12.000
I think they're gonna do it because it's safer.
01:59:15.000
And I think that's why it's going to be really hard to get people to sign off on the idea of letting people drive their own cars.
01:59:21.000
It's a thing that we got really used to, that we only got used to for a little while.
01:59:25.000
I mean, there was no cars in 1700, and in the 2020s, everyone's got a fucking car.
01:59:32.000
So in that time period, we went from all of human history, no cars, to the invention of a car, whenever the fuck that was.
01:59:46.000
And then we just decide, well, you have to have a car.
02:00:04.000
It could be like a tube where people fly through it.
02:00:07.000
It's all magnets on the other end to keep it from crashing into each other.
02:00:10.000
They could figure out some weird shit that has nothing to do with cars.
02:00:16.000
I think if they could figure out a way to convince people that there will be no more auto accidents, that would be a good way to get people on board.
02:00:24.000
If they said no more auto accidents ever, people would probably be like, oh, well, how can you argue against that, you selfish fuck?
02:00:30.000
You want to shift through your own gears and kill my nana?
02:00:36.000
They're going to give in to it because they don't want to be selfish.
02:00:39.000
I mean, this is like the slow slide into accepting that we're a part of technology.
02:00:44.000
The slow slide is us hanging on to our biology as much as possible.
02:00:59.000
But we're real insistent on keeping our old ways.
02:01:03.000
I know in terms of, like, I like to hear the rumble of an engine.
02:01:12.000
I don't want to backtrack too much, but I have been.
02:01:28.000
You know, just being an artist is a different kind of person.
02:01:33.000
It's a person who's chosen a path of doing whatever the fuck they want to do.
02:01:48.000
Some of them come with consequences if you make a mistake.
02:01:51.000
If you take away all consequences, my concern is that we're going to just keep protecting ourselves more and [...
02:02:12.000
This is why I would rather drive my own car is because like...
02:02:24.000
You wake up and you never know what's happening.
02:02:27.000
You never know what's going to happen during the day.
02:03:02.000
Because I think what all of us are doing is witnessing these changes happening in real time and trying to hold on to whatever ground we have that we think is important and sacred.
02:03:13.000
I think that's one of the things we're doing where You know, people that ride motorcycles, they want to ride Harleys and loud engines, and it's romantic, it's exciting.
02:03:27.000
Like, a hundred years from now, it's all going to be autonomous.
02:03:31.000
There's going to be very few licenses that we give away to people to let them drive their own cars.
02:03:37.000
It's probably all going to be controlled by some central system that keeps you at a certain pace.
02:03:53.000
Before, it's like if you worked at a job and you had a 68 Camaro and you drove your 68 Camaro to work, while you're driving down the street listening to Whitesnake, here I go again on my own.
02:04:06.000
And you're driving this fucking thing and you're shifting your own gears.
02:04:12.000
And someone can come along, take that away, and say, no, no, no, you have to get in the autonomous tube now.
02:04:20.000
So this poor fucking dude who looked forward to his drive to work.
02:04:24.000
He had a 20-minute drive to work, but during that 20 minutes, he listened to all the music he wanted to listen to.
02:04:35.000
Pulled into that fucking parking spot, shut his car off.
02:04:39.000
But he knows that in eight hours he'll be free and fire that car up again.
02:04:54.000
A person who really understands the fun of cars?
02:05:06.000
No, you think about you pull out your debit card, right?
02:05:11.000
And all of a sudden, no one's debit card works.
02:05:28.000
So if everybody wanted all the paper for all the money they have in the bank, we would never be able to do it?
02:05:33.000
If everybody's debit card stopped working, it would fucking...
02:05:40.000
But how much cash is there out there now in comparison to, like, the 80s when there was only cash?
02:05:52.000
Yeah, but think about, if we had an enemy that wanted to say, or even our own government, that's just like, all technology,
02:06:49.000
There's 1.3 trillion accounted for, but how much of it is in actual paper cash, right?
02:07:04.000
Some restaurants are like, no, we don't take cash.
02:07:11.000
It says, uh, according to the CIA, the total amount of broad money is 80 trillion dollars.
02:07:26.000
So 1.9 trillion is actual cash and all the rest of it is just bullshit.
02:07:38.000
There's not a vault you can go in like a fucking Guy Ritchie movie.
02:07:41.000
Imagine where we're at war with a country and then they have the best hackers or whatever.
02:07:54.000
But you go to swipe your card and it doesn't work.
02:07:58.000
And then everybody in America goes to swipe their card and it doesn't work.
02:08:04.000
And then you find out the goblin lead singer of that band was a real goblin!
02:08:15.000
And he's eating people the same way that centipede eats mice.
02:08:18.000
Gets right in the back of their head and climbs into their fucking skull.
02:09:02.000
I've seen them near the Big Island on one of them cruises they take you out.
02:09:06.000
I've seen them a couple times accidentally while fishing from Maui, but I've seen them on the Big Island where you go out on a boat ride.
02:09:19.000
So you're in this boat, and then as you're out there, you just see one break the surface.
02:09:23.000
And then they, you know, lean towards that area.
02:09:26.000
And sometimes you see them swim under the boat.
02:09:50.000
Like, they didn't get killed by the Yucatan blast, right?
02:09:53.000
Aren't they something that's millions of years old?
02:09:58.000
Like, when you think about dolphins and how fucking intelligent they are, how long have they been around?
02:10:34.000
We don't, you know, they take care of their young.
02:11:04.000
They call them killer whales because they kill whales.
02:11:23.000
Sex for fun, you'll probably get a better article.
02:11:42.000
I wonder how much they know about them, you know?
02:11:45.000
I don't think they know about them the same way they know about dolphins.
02:11:52.000
There's not as many as there used to be, that's for sure.
02:11:54.000
There's a real worry about the ones that are in the Pacific Northwest.
02:11:58.000
There's a pod around the Seattle area, I think, that for whatever reason doesn't want to eat anything other than Chinook salmon.
02:12:08.000
There's not as many salmon anymore, so these things are starving.
02:12:11.000
And so they're trying to reintroduce, like, the idea of getting them to eat, like, seals, sea lions, things like that, because other killer whales eat them all the time.
02:12:20.000
So you have this native pod of killer whales that's really struggling, and then you have these pods that are travelers.
02:12:27.000
They travel into the neighborhood, and they just fuck everything up.
02:12:29.000
They eat all the seals, they eat whatever they want.
02:12:32.000
They eat mammals, they eat fish, they eat whatever they want, and then they take off.
02:12:36.000
But there's one pod, for whatever reason, just wants salmon.
02:12:40.000
They're having a hard time keeping them active.
02:12:43.000
They're even thinking about releasing extra salmon into the water.
02:12:46.000
They've had a bunch of weird ideas of how to save them.
02:12:53.000
It says there's a lot of animals that have sex, not just for reproduction.
02:12:58.000
But it says they also masturbate, which I found in this article.
02:13:04.000
It just says they do stuff when reproduction isn't their only...
02:13:28.000
There's stories of killer whales rescuing people when they fall off boats, which is really crazy.
02:13:33.000
Like, they've actually said killer whales have actually helped them.
02:13:38.000
Because they kill people in captivity, but only because they're, probably because they're tortured.
02:13:42.000
You know, they're living in a fucking swimming pool, a giant majestic ocean animal trapped in a prison for no reason, didn't do anything wrong.
02:13:50.000
Eventually they just start killing their trainers.
02:14:09.000
They take a little toot and they pass it around.
02:14:13.000
The dolphin's expert, deliberate handling of the terrorized pufferfish implies that this is not their first time at the hallucinogenic rodeo.
02:14:30.000
I don't know, but we don't have a face like that.
02:14:32.000
I would imagine a lot of shit a dolphin could do that you can't.
02:14:44.000
Enough toxin in one pufferfish to kill 30 adult humans.
02:15:04.000
You know what's weird is that people want to eat them.
02:15:07.000
They're like a prized sushi meat because it's exciting.
02:15:14.000
You're eating something that if the chef fucks this up, you're dead.
02:15:41.000
For whatever reason, people like the idea of eating something that might fucking kill them.
02:15:51.000
Served in paper-thin slices by expert chefs, the fugu combines luxury with high-stakes gamble.
02:15:56.000
The intestines, ovaries, and liver of fugu, or blowfish, contains a poison called tetrodot...
02:16:15.000
Tetrodotoxin, which is 1200 times deadlier than cyanide.
02:16:19.000
This toxin is so potent that a lethal dose is smaller than the head of a pin.
02:16:29.000
And a single fish is enough poison to kill 30 people because of the high risk.
02:16:33.000
Chefs must undergo two to three years of training to obtain a fugu preparing license.
02:16:40.000
And such expertise raises the price of fugu dishes up to $200.
02:16:50.000
They consume 10,000 tons of fugu fish every year.
02:17:18.000
70% of food-related asphyxiations in those younger than 10 are caused from hot dogs.
02:17:23.000
I understand little kids and the parents don't know how to do the Heimlich, but there's a certain age where you're on your own if you choke to death on a hot dog.
02:17:36.000
You gotta throw yourself on the end of a chair.
02:17:38.000
I don't know if it will work, but that's what you gotta do.
02:17:56.000
You get behind someone and you force it, right?
02:18:06.000
So that the food, when it pops out, doesn't fall right back in their hole.
02:18:15.000
Yeah, punch yourself right in an upward motion.
02:18:39.000
Well, hey, if you're choking, you gotta find the closest one, I think.
02:18:41.000
I heard that people break ribs doing this all the time.
02:18:46.000
And then CPR, people break ribs doing that, too.
02:18:49.000
You're pushing on the ribs, trying to get someone to breathe.
02:18:53.000
Trying to get that food out of their stomach, that fucking hot dog.
02:18:56.000
What if the chair's like a throne, like a cool vampire throne, and it's sharp on the top?
02:19:07.000
Don't do the Heimlich when you're near a vampire throne.
02:19:26.000
Before we got too far, a picture of Henry Heimlich, the guy who invented it, popped up.
02:19:32.000
He came up with it in 1974 when it was promoted, so what the fuck did people do before that?
02:19:39.000
Stabbed themselves with a fucking vampire throne.
02:19:57.000
Heimlich recommended standing behind the person, wrapping arms around...
02:20:16.000
But if you said to me, what is that thing called, before you just said that, I'd be like, I don't know what the fuck that thing's called.
02:20:24.000
Yeah, I don't know how you would do it yourself.
02:20:25.000
You would lean forward, I guess, and just slam it in?
02:20:31.000
Do you just, like, choke yourself with, like, just eat steak, and then...
02:20:40.000
I think someone probably did it one time, and then the other went...
02:20:54.000
I figured that would have been around for years.
02:21:01.000
People just thought demons were taking you when you're choking on food.
02:21:33.000
That's how much better Japanese people are at being humans than Americans.
02:21:39.000
They don't even die from this fucking super toxic thing where one drop the head of a pin could kill a whole human being.
02:21:47.000
That doesn't measure out to me though, by the way.
02:21:54.000
In a puffer fish to kill 30 humans, but one pin drop is a lethal dose.
02:22:02.000
Yeah, they have a very small amount of poison, I guess.
02:22:04.000
The policy before this was slapping somebody on the back.
02:22:08.000
And it took until, like, 1970 when this guy was, like, researching this to found out that it actually pushed the food further back down.
02:22:14.000
So the Red Cross had to have, like, a do not allow anyone to slap you on your back if you're choking and try to dislodge food.
02:22:21.000
And then, like, he said he read an article, Dr. Heimlich, about people dying.
02:22:32.000
It makes sense with hot dogs, though, because you get to bite off those chunks, you know?
02:22:37.000
Like, it's so easy to bite off, and if you're a glutton, or if you just make a mistake, and you just bite off too big a piece, and you think you're alright, and you're like...
02:22:57.000
When you look at how many people have died from choking, ever.
02:23:04.000
You never hear about it unless it was someone famous.
02:23:06.000
It's like Kennedy's sister-in-law or someone died of choking on meat.
02:23:13.000
I think I've only been in one dire choking situation.
02:23:18.000
I was at dinner with my family at our house and I took a bite of steak and It just clogged me up.
02:23:43.000
Have you ever been in a dire choking situation?
02:23:48.000
I've definitely been choking at points, like I've had something like, but I either threw it up or something.
02:23:55.000
Never where I thought this was it, I'm gonna die.
02:24:08.000
Just imagine enjoying a delicious piece of steak and then you're like, well fuck, it took a turn.
02:24:17.000
And you could die if people around you don't know what the fuck to do.
02:24:25.000
Yeah, you can't be timid with that Heimlich maneuver either.
02:24:30.000
Yeah, you gotta get after it because you might not have that much time.
02:24:38.000
You know, I mean you could break someone's fucking ribs, too.
02:24:43.000
If you're doing like to an old lady and she's choking on something, you might kill her doing that.
02:24:50.000
She spits out the meat, but you killed her by giving her the Heimlich.
02:25:06.000
Those free divers, they can do like seven minutes, I think.
02:25:15.000
Yeah, people have done more than that, but they've done it with weird oxygen assist things.
02:25:22.000
He did some crazy number of minutes, but he did something to himself first, right?
02:25:30.000
When we were doing the podcast the other day, I was trying to look into it.
02:25:40.000
I believe, yeah, by just breathing it in and then not moving at all, so he didn't use any of it.
02:25:44.000
But he did like 17 minutes or something like that.
02:25:54.000
Yeah, I think it's 22 minutes from Modern Family.
02:26:02.000
That's a long fucking time to hold your breath, David.
02:26:11.000
He probably explained a lot of it, but he had to get his heart rate down.
02:26:14.000
He did it once in It didn't work, and he panicked.
02:26:19.000
It was a whole thing because it wasn't easy to get in there towards the thing he did it, but he did it again.
02:26:24.000
There's just something about a dude like him that's willing to do shit that you would be like, wait, why are you even doing this?
02:26:38.000
Yeah, he was encased in ice for a long-ass time.
02:26:46.000
I think it was a long time because there was one thing he did in New York City where people could come up and see him.
02:27:36.000
That's how badass it is when you just stand still for 72 hours.
02:27:42.000
Lenny Kravitz is like, yo, this guy's fucking crazy.
02:27:46.000
Lenny Kravitz lives on a farm in Brazil and he finds out that you're doing some crazy shit in ice and he shows up.
02:27:55.000
He's been on top of a pole for a really long time.
02:27:57.000
Of course, you know, I've seen something like this before.
02:28:04.000
Monks do it and they have a way to like slow down their metabolism so they can be up there for weeks and not eat and not drink anything.
02:28:20.000
He stood up there for 34 hours before jumping down.
02:28:44.000
He's up there on that pole covered in ice eating glass for three years.
02:28:54.000
The art in that is that we know it's really hard to do and there's no way to fake it.
02:29:24.000
Have you seen this one where he puts a live frog in his belly and spits it back out alive?
02:29:36.000
I don't think you can really take that picture.
02:29:57.000
How come the frogs are so clear but you don't see anything else?
02:30:18.000
Oh man, they got a fucking Rhino at the fucking gas station.
02:30:30.000
But the thing is, it's the perfect amount of propane because it's not very big.
02:30:36.000
Elon probably blew half of it out just showing it to me.
02:30:42.000
Right out there in the hallway, just blowing this fire.
02:31:04.000
Hurts me to the core that him and Johnny Depp want to duke it out.
02:31:14.000
The Amber Heard, Johnny's ex-wife, was involved with Elon, apparently, at one point in time.
02:31:21.000
They would love each other if they knew each other.
02:31:29.000
Conor McGregor's coach offers to train Elon Musk for a fight with Johnny Depp.
02:31:56.000
It was a joke that Elon apparently said at one point in time, maybe I should have a cage fight with him.
02:32:16.000
Not everybody, but when those kind of fights happen, you're like, ah, I see what happened here.
02:32:30.000
I think it's really wise that you live out there.
02:32:34.000
For a dude like you, it's good to be in a place where you see nature and it's probably, in a way, it's balancing.
02:32:42.000
There's something about the Utah mountains too.
02:32:49.000
You see that shit all the time when you drive around Utah.
02:32:55.000
It's just like you're a fucking dot on the fucking entire globe.
02:33:07.000
If you drive through the mountains, it's like you're seeing an art gallery.
02:33:18.000
You can see a waterfall coming off the side of a mountain and everything's lush and green.
02:33:29.000
And that's the best, especially for making music.
02:33:34.000
Especially for making music, because it's just like, without sounding corny, it's like you feel like you're a part of something bigger, but you're so insignificant.
02:33:47.000
And then you can just say, I accept everything around me.
02:34:02.000
The world's spinning around you and everything happens for a reason.
02:34:06.000
And you can just sit there 100% peace, at ease, and say, I don't have to worry.
02:34:13.000
Like I said earlier, LA, always something going on.
02:34:20.000
And it definitely affected my creative process, for sure.
02:34:30.000
I don't want to speak on behalf of everyone in LA or from LA, but there's a lot of people who kind of want to drain you.
02:34:48.000
And when they're concentrating, they're trying to make it.
02:34:55.000
And I don't mean that as a pejorative, as a negative thing.
02:35:04.000
Like, and when you're successful, and you're a guy who's got a lot going on, they think there's a rub.
02:35:12.000
I gotta be able to somehow or another get what he's got.
02:35:27.000
I'm good at one thing, and that's using auto-tune to sing.
02:36:02.000
Run DMC for a while, and then I'll go into some old Zeppelin, and I'll get stuck on Zeppelin for months, and then I'll transfer over to some old Johnny Cash, and I'll get into that for a while, and then I'll get into a moody mode, and I'll need some Sheryl Crow in my life.
02:36:24.000
I go into these waves, but most of the time, if you had to come in here on a whim and say, what kind of music's playing?
02:36:43.000
There's something about the fact that these guys were breaking out of this mold that society had carved for them when they were children and here they are as adults in the 1960s and they are just buck wild.
02:37:08.000
And just, like, here's this record I just picked up from the store.
02:37:12.000
Let's spin that fucker and hope my parents don't hear it.
02:37:21.000
Well, I definitely have, but I wasn't the biggest Sabbath fan.
02:37:29.000
I was really into Kiss when it was embarrassing.
02:37:32.000
I love Kiss, but when I was a kid, it was a problem.
02:37:37.000
Other kids that found out you liked KISS are like, what?
02:37:46.000
There's a weird thing that happened with KISS. This is what's interesting.
02:37:51.000
A lot of people don't know this, but when I was a kid, Kiss got no radio play.
02:37:58.000
I don't know if it was because of politics or people just decided they suck because they wear masks or makeup rather.
02:38:05.000
But for whatever reason, it was really hard to hear a Kiss song on the radio.
02:38:09.000
And every now and then you would hear, I want to rock and roll all night.
02:38:19.000
Like you'd be in your car driving that would come on you'd be so excited because you were a Kiss fan and you don't the Kiss didn't get any love and then as we got older I think people started missing it and then Kiss made like reunion tours and they came back and put the makeup on again and people got excited and and Then people that were for whatever reason not Kiss fans in the past became Kiss fans in the present,
02:38:44.000
But when I was in the 80s, it was like a problem.
02:38:57.000
You know, that was, I believe Nirvana came out with Nevermind.
02:39:14.000
Like, Eddie Bravo, my friend Eddie, he's always saying, like, that's what killed hair bands.
02:39:45.000
It's like if you could take a person's emotions and their soul and figure out how to transfer it into musical notes and sounds, that's what it sounded like.
02:40:02.000
It's like, fuck everything and here's what I'm gonna say.
02:40:35.000
Since COVID, there's a lot of shit I missed on.
02:40:48.000
And it was cool to see Dave give his approval and Travis Barker played drums.
02:40:57.000
Travis was the first guy to come in here with face tattoos, but you knocked it out of the park.
02:41:05.000
Travis is one of the sweetest motherfuckers in the world.
02:41:14.000
Like as good a drummer as he is, you cannot be that good unless you got some fire inside of you.
02:41:21.000
You know, that dude's got fire inside of him, but he's super cool.
02:41:26.000
But like to be that good and so fucking into it, man.
02:41:49.000
Like a really cool custom blazer I think he has?
02:42:53.000
Car shops are considered, they're supposed to be essential businesses.
02:43:03.000
Yeah, but that's one of the weirdest things about this pandemic is what's essential and what's not essential.
02:43:24.000
It's a strange amount of power, and what's allowed to be open and what's not.
02:43:28.000
Like, they had bars were open, but then they wouldn't let comedy clubs open.
02:43:43.000
It's like, who gets to decide your restaurant can open because it's outside?
02:43:49.000
There's no way in hell you could figure out how to keep people apart inside.
02:43:58.000
Whenever I touched down, my friend was like, yeah, all the restaurants just...
02:44:27.000
What do people who are addicted to partying do?
02:44:32.000
Unregulated parties at home, and that gives people coronavirus.
02:44:51.000
What Dave Chappelle's doing is testing everybody, flying everybody out to Ohio, putting on these great shows.
02:44:57.000
He has music, he has comedy, he has a good fucking time, and he does it outdoors.
02:45:10.000
So he's doing it on this stage that people get married on.
02:45:13.000
So it's like a stage with the fucking poles and the steps to get up to it.
02:45:27.000
It's essential for people, too, because it's another thing that makes people feel good.
02:45:32.000
Like, they're doing an investigation of the chain smokers.
02:45:37.000
Like the state's involved in this investigation because they did essentially a car show where they were on stage and there was like 600 cars in the audience and they did their show to people in parked cars.
02:45:59.000
Oh, so it's supposed to be in cars and people just said, fuck it, let's get out of the cars and stand?
02:46:10.000
This is a DJ? It's only a two-second video, so...
02:46:28.000
The crowd was estimated at $2,000 for the concert at Watermill.
02:46:32.000
Ticket prices ranged from $850 to Uber VIP options for $25,000 that accommodated RVs.
02:46:45.000
The state of New York is now probing the concert.
02:46:52.000
Are they probing what happened in Soho or just...
02:47:04.000
Yeah, there's flyers going around on Twitter for it.
02:47:07.000
There's a thousand dollar prize for a twerk contest.
02:47:11.000
But they're saying that's like, you know, a super spreader party or whatever.
02:47:17.000
Well, I got those fuckers that say, oh, Post Malone's here at this nightclub, and I'm not even in town.
02:47:27.000
Yeah, and people don't get their money back, right?
02:48:00.000
If they only had it set up as a concert without any enforcement whatsoever on how close people stood to each other.
02:48:09.000
Whose responsibility is it if people get out and just start talking?
02:48:17.000
I don't know if they actually talked to them, but this is what they were supposed to have done or did do.
02:48:25.000
No, he said noted that concert goers went through a temperature check upon entry, which is not good enough, really.
02:48:35.000
Once parked and had restrooms that were disinfected every ten minutes.
02:48:40.000
Well, nine minutes he's giving people cooties, and then on the tenth some dude comes in and hoses it down.
02:48:47.000
There were dividers separating individual parties in the pit area and that guests were also instructed they would not be allowed to leave their design...
02:49:03.000
But obviously that's not really what's happening.
02:49:11.000
And also, the dividers between people, that's horseshit.
02:49:16.000
The air doesn't give a shit if there's a little piece of cardboard here between you and the people next to you.
02:49:21.000
Your spit goes through the air and it gets to them.
02:49:28.000
And I don't think it has to do with the boys in the group.
02:49:38.000
Because I know the boys in the group Sweet guys.
02:49:45.000
I think the total, like, it was a shit show that just got out of fucking hand.
02:49:52.000
If you get a bunch of people in their cars drinking, and they're all able to open the door and just socialize, they're gonna do it.
02:50:01.000
So people are tailgating before the show, so they're cooking burgers, having a good time, having drinks with each other, and then the show starts.
02:50:08.000
They're gonna get out of their car and mingle with each other.
02:50:21.000
This article said that people that were there said that it was safe.
02:50:30.000
Well, listen, it seems safe if you get away with it and nothing happens.
02:50:34.000
If you get away with it and nothing happens, like, oh my god, it was so safe.
02:50:39.000
You get a COVID test and they find you don't have it after you go to that concert.
02:51:04.000
My friend Michael Yeo, that's what happened to his mom.
02:51:07.000
Michael Yeo was in the hospital for a long time, man, for like weeks.
02:51:51.000
Even if you think, oh, if I get it, it's just going to make me sick for a few days, I'll kick its ass.
02:51:56.000
Even if that's true, it's scary for what it's done to the economy.
02:52:16.000
They're arresting people for keeping gyms open.
02:52:21.000
The same people that didn't arrest the looters, I think.
02:52:33.000
There's going to come a certain amount of time.
02:52:51.000
It's a complicated question, because you don't want people to die, and you don't want people to have diseases and get sick.
02:52:58.000
But then you have to, everybody has to live their life.
02:53:01.000
Everybody has to survive and fucking be able to pay their fucking bills and eat.
02:53:12.000
This is one of the most truly human problems we've ever faced.
02:53:16.000
Because no one really knows what the right thing to do is.
02:53:19.000
There'll be a lot of armchair quarterbacking after it's over, where people who, you know, people die, people who look back on it and say they should have done this, or they should have done that.
02:53:29.000
And maybe some people had a better idea of how to handle it.
02:53:43.000
It's like me in school having to fucking tuck in my shirt or else you get detention or whatever.
02:54:05.000
If you wear a good mask, it actually does prevent a lot of transmission.
02:54:34.000
I would like to see a documentary on how Japan managed COVID-19 because they did an insane job.
02:54:43.000
I think there's only a thousand deaths in all of Japan.
02:54:50.000
If you can't find it, I'll send you the article.
02:54:53.000
It's all in how they never shut the economy down.
02:55:04.000
At the end of the day, it all comes down to respect for other people.
02:55:28.000
Yeah, you should wear a mask because you're a good person.
02:55:31.000
And that's because I respect you as a fellow human.
02:55:54.000
You definitely should wear a mask, just so people feel better for now.
02:56:03.000
They were paying people to snitch on people who weren't social distancing.
02:56:11.000
They were like, ordinarily snitches get stitches, but now snitches get rewards.
02:56:16.000
They were literally giving people money or advertising.
02:56:22.000
Advertising they would give away rewards for people who turn in people who are not social distancing.
02:56:33.000
Hey, why not just say, hey, put your mask on, bub.
02:56:43.000
Is it like you have to mail in your snitch information?
02:56:47.000
What if they still haven't gotten paid yet and they feel like a fucking terrible person?
02:56:54.000
Meanwhile, months later, the money still hasn't come.
02:57:06.000
Because maybe someone sees you eating and you don't have a mask on and then you are stuck with a fucking ticket.
02:57:19.000
It's all about fucking the responsibility and your character, really.
02:57:24.000
If you snitch and they don't pay you, what do you do?
02:57:32.000
If you snitch like, hey, I turned in with this family next door, they were having a picnic, and I never got my reward.
02:57:43.000
Do they ever pay the cash amount that they say?
02:57:51.000
They're coyote food most of the time in L.A. Jesus Christ, that's dark.
02:57:55.000
When I drive through my neighborhood and I see like a poodle on a sign, I just make the sign of the cross.
02:58:03.000
You don't even see it and you're like, gotta keep my eyes peeled.
02:58:07.000
You don't understand how many coyotes there are in my neighborhood.
02:58:16.000
Dude, we lost them one at a time, these motherfuckers.
02:58:19.000
And then the last, I guess we had like 11 of them left after the fire.
02:58:28.000
They burned down their chicken coop, but they were still alive.
02:58:33.000
We put them in a smaller chicken coop while we had the other one reconstructed and one day the coyotes got to it.
02:58:39.000
Tore open the chicken coop and ate all the chickens.
02:59:03.000
When you kill them, it has the opposite effect.
02:59:06.000
What happens with coyotes is they do that roll call where they yell out, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:59:10.000
Well, when one stops responding, like when one's missing.
02:59:21.000
So when female coyotes are in a pack and a coyote goes missing, all of the females generate more children.
02:59:34.000
So if they would normally have like three kids, now they have six.
02:59:43.000
Because as long as you persecute them, what they do is they make more babies and they spread out.
02:59:49.000
They're in every fucking city in this country right now.
03:00:04.000
Those Utah cats are big because there's so many deer up there.
03:00:15.000
Don't you want to shoot him right in the fucking dick?
03:00:19.000
Creepy asshole, hanging around your house looking to eat your dog.
03:00:22.000
If I see the ears go back, that's when I'll shoot it.
03:00:30.000
They find dogs and shit, things that are easy to eat.
03:00:38.000
He stays with my parents right now, but I had a micro French bulldog.
03:00:45.000
For coyotes, especially out here, whenever I lived down here, he would go out back and we heard him all night.
03:01:11.000
Like, if there was wolves on the street everywhere, we'd be fucking terrified.
03:01:14.000
It would be like Little Red Riding Hood and shit because we would know they're going to kill your kids.
03:01:19.000
Coyotes are just small enough that we're like, I don't think it's going to kill the kids.
03:01:26.000
You let these fucking dirty twats live in your neighborhood.
03:01:52.000
They did a study of cats in Northern California, like outside of San Francisco.
03:01:58.000
They captured or killed some of these mountain lions and they did a content, stomach content thing of the troubled cats.
03:02:05.000
They would cause problems, eat people's cats and dogs and shit.
03:02:09.000
They found out that 50% of their diet was house pets.
03:02:14.000
Most of these mountain lions out there are just eating dogs.
03:02:21.000
When you think about all the people out here, if you had an aerial view of people, and all these people have dogs, there's thousands and thousands of dogs, and these cats are just stealing them out of backyards.
03:02:32.000
Just jumping in, stealing them out of backyards.
03:02:37.000
It happens and people don't know and they don't know what to do.
03:03:20.000
It's a huge cat that's walking in front of the Hollywood sign.
03:03:24.000
It has a big collar on it because they GPS track them.
03:04:00.000
They name him numbers instead of giving him names because they don't want to feel bad when they die.
03:04:18.000
Imagine if you're hanging out with your chick, you're sitting on top of the hill, you're like, let's just get a glass of wine, just get out of the car, have a glass of wine, you see that thing coming up the hill, you're like, fuck!
03:04:33.000
You break the fucking wine bottle on the ground like you're in an old movie.
03:04:46.000
The wolves were coming after him and he broke bottles and stuck them inside of his knuckles.
03:04:55.000
I'm thinking about Leo fighting a fucking bear.
03:05:19.000
I'm just fucking killing a pack of wolves in my fucking cowl neck.
03:05:23.000
Yeah, with broken airplane booze bottles shoved in between each knuckle.
03:05:38.000
He's ready to go to the death with these wolves.
03:05:42.000
Congratulations on your shitty decision-making.
03:05:50.000
Fucking David Blaine can stand still for 38 hours.
03:05:53.000
You can't get up in a tree until these wolves get bored?
03:06:03.000
How long do you wait for them fuckers to get bored?
03:06:07.000
Either you find out how long they get bored and you go where they can't go, or you fight them to the death and that takes three seconds.
03:06:19.000
No, you gotta fight the biggest one, because once you fight the biggest one, they're gonna think you're the leader of the pack now.
03:06:26.000
The first thing they're gonna do is they're gonna send some little bitch-ass wolves, because it's all it needs to kill you, and they're gonna eat you asshole first.
03:06:32.000
I would love to see a little bitch-ass wolf try to beat my ass.
03:06:51.000
But getting killed by wolves is probably one of the worst ways to go.
03:07:01.000
There's something terrible about knowing that something's killing you to eat you, though.
03:07:16.000
You could just kick the wolves into fucking oblivion.
03:07:22.000
They're 150 pounds, they can run 35 miles an hour, and they can do it for all day.
03:07:29.000
If you grabbed ahold of a wolf, they don't even feel like an animal.
03:07:37.000
What are they going to do if they can't bite you?
03:07:49.000
They could keep that fucking centipede from eating their brain first.
03:07:58.000
It's just one thing eating another thing, getting eaten by a third thing, and then what's more terrifying about that centipede eating the mouse?
03:08:09.000
The fact that a centipede does that and eats a mouse brain first, or the fact that people set it up and filmed it Knowing how it was going to go down and wanting to show people what happens when a centipede meets a mouse.
03:08:24.000
So they left this mouse in this total unnatural environment.
03:08:27.000
If that mouse was out in the wild, centipede probably rarely gets a hold of a mouse like that.
03:08:37.000
Like, that centipede, like, go back to that video with the centipede and the mouse.
03:08:43.000
Did the mouse have a chance of getting away in a real-world environment?
03:08:50.000
But in a real-world environment, if the mouse had a chance to scramble, do you think he could have got away?
03:08:59.000
Like, if a big guy is trying to chase down a small, fast guy in a large area, it's not going to happen.
03:09:09.000
But if you leave him in a tiny little room, then they can grab him.
03:09:19.000
National Geographic got a different version of this.
03:09:28.000
Oh my god, the mouse is attacking them and biting it and then jumping away.
03:09:31.000
Again, this is lit very well, and it might be set up.
03:09:36.000
But, because I don't know how you get cameras so good to capture all this.
03:09:39.000
I think the creepiest part of the whole deal is his legs.
03:09:42.000
Dude, I'm glad you think like you do, Jamie, because you're right.
03:10:09.000
That's a different kind of mouse, though, than those little bitch-ass lab mice that they threw in that aquarium.
03:10:32.000
Pocket mice like to snack on centipedes late at night.
03:10:57.000
You gotta think, man, if you're going to war...
03:11:06.000
Okay, now imagine that, the size of a horse, running down Central Park, taking out people.
03:11:33.000
If the size, you can crush it and you hear the crunch, but at a larger scale, it's probably bulletproof.
03:11:51.000
I've seen there's like a lot of species of mantises.
03:12:00.000
That is one of the craziest looking insects I've ever seen.
03:12:07.000
Back up a little bit so I can see the kung fu mantis go through his kung fu.
03:12:13.000
When you saw the moves that the mantis makes, when he sees the other...
03:12:42.000
Like you think you have power over the larger opponent, but only so much.
03:12:47.000
There's one too, it's a different kind, hanging upside down.
03:13:00.000
No, there is a picture of a spider in here somewhere.
03:13:24.000
Never know where your next meal's gonna come from.
03:13:30.000
Just imagine, okay, imagine being a big mantis and picking up a little mantis.
03:13:51.000
That's like a, it's almost like, it's like a giraffe eating a person, right?
03:13:59.000
Can we pull up the grasshopper eating a carrot?
03:14:37.000
Probably like bell peppers because they're not really a vegetable.
03:14:41.000
Is it like a bell pepper, a fruit, or a vegetable?
03:14:47.000
I guess I like green leafy things, but I don't know if I like them or if I know they're good for you.
03:14:55.000
Okay, if you've got a plate of delicious, ripe watermelon next to some bullshit-ass green beans, which one are you going to reach for?
03:15:04.000
Well, it depends on if I'm feeling fruity or if I'm feeling like...
03:15:13.000
I rarely would eat a salad if it was hot out and it was right next to cold oranges.
03:15:20.000
You know those oranges when you pull the peel back?
03:15:28.000
You don't have to dig your fingernail in there.
03:15:33.000
And then you peel those little slices and put them in your mouth and it's just this explosion of moisture and flavor.
03:15:42.000
Hey, eat the whole fucking pack of green beans and you can send a fucking big wolf.
03:15:47.000
I don't want to fight the little bitch-ass wolf.
03:15:49.000
I get it when people are starving to death, but the fact that you would ever choose Brussels sprouts over a delicious apple is ridiculous.
03:15:57.000
But if you want good mouth flavor, the apple's the way to go.
03:16:20.000
But how much of that show that they do when they're like, let's go in the basement.
03:16:26.000
How many times have they ever caught an actual ghost on their TV show?
03:16:32.000
I think ghosts are probably real, but the ghosts that show up on TV are probably hacks.
03:16:41.000
That Mama movie that I was talking about, if that was real, if you see Mama at the end, at the end of the movie you get to see a real good image of Mama.
03:16:56.000
If that was a real thing, and you didn't have your camera out, and it just went away, and then you had to tell people, would you even tell them?
03:17:06.000
You wouldn't even know what to fucking tell them.
03:17:09.000
You'd probably tell a few of your friends, but you wouldn't go to it on Facebook.
03:17:17.000
It's like if you saw a UFO. If I saw a UFO, legitimate UFO, I saw something I couldn't explain, I'd have to tell people here.
03:17:33.000
I think I thought I saw something when I was younger, but it's not a strong enough memory.
03:17:41.000
When a fighter jet flies by, you know, they do exercises all the time.
03:17:45.000
Like there was one time they launched a missile off the California coast.
03:17:56.000
I was driving down Melrose, and I saw it fly across the sky, and everybody thought it was a UFO. People were pulling over.
03:18:29.000
Yeah, I just saw it online after it had done it.
03:18:37.000
And we looked up and it was just like, yeah, and we were like, what the fuck is that?
03:19:00.000
I don't remember if I saw this or if I pretended I saw this.
03:19:14.000
I think it's the thrusters giving off fire, right?
03:19:20.000
There's fire coming out of the back end of it and it's going incredibly fast.
03:19:26.000
It's causing a disruption in all of the moisture in the atmosphere.
03:19:33.000
So, you know, you've got something that's going insanely fast with an immense amount of power.
03:19:43.000
Like, that's what when people get confused about.
03:19:49.000
When you see planes and you see those trails behind them, all that is is the heat of the engine interacting with the water vapor that's in the air, the condensation, and it creates fake clouds.
03:20:01.000
No, they are making clouds, but they're not doing it on purpose.
03:20:11.000
There's definitely people who, not only do they control weather, in Abu Dhabi, they make it rain once a week.
03:20:17.000
They have 52 weeks of rain a year in the fucking desert.
03:20:31.000
And they've used it to manipulate weather in a bunch of different circumstances.
03:20:34.000
They've used it to cause rain in places, but it's like an established science.
03:20:38.000
It's like silver, the silver something, silver.
03:20:47.000
Yeah, they impart the powers of the silver surfer.
03:20:52.000
But they do something where they spray things into the sky and it forces the clouds to coalesce, I think.
03:21:06.000
They're like, wouldn't it be great if it rained here once a week?
03:21:08.000
I mean, it's great here, but wouldn't it be great if it rained here once a week?
03:21:23.000
Then they fire a salt flare into the cloud to enhance the rainfall.
03:21:37.000
But if I was living there and someone came to me and go, hey, we have a service we offer where we can make it rain once a week.
03:22:22.000
Think about weather in relation to music is interesting.
03:22:37.000
Drug use in general, but it appears that like the people that I've talked to that lived, particularly my friend Joey Diaz, who lived in the Pacific Northwest, he's like, man, it's something about that area where it's all heroin.
03:22:49.000
And Joey, you know, he has a lot of experience with drugs.
03:22:58.000
I think it's a sadness, you know, the lack of vitamin D, lack of sunlight.
03:23:02.000
I mean, I don't think people really, truly understood how bad that was for you, to be vitamin D deficient like that, and the fact that that's the best way we get it is from the sun.
03:23:13.000
That's why, like, when you're out at your place, man, and you're in Utah, those clear skies, and you just fucking, just close your eyes and face towards the sun, you feel it on your face, like, oh, it's nice, man.
03:23:42.000
But even in Utah, even during the winter times, it's super overcast and snowing and shit, but you still get that same kind of vibe.
03:23:56.000
But maybe that's because you experience the warmth.
03:24:01.000
Utah's not overcast like the Pacific Northwest is, though.
03:24:13.000
There's something about that kind of shit that it's fun for a while, but after a while it wears on you.
03:24:22.000
The dudes that I know that sustain it, they seem weary.
03:24:26.000
You know, my friends that I know from the Pacific Northwest, there's something about them, there's a weariness to them that concerns me.
03:24:33.000
Even the healthy ones, they don't, they seem weary.
03:24:38.000
I mean, maybe this is obviously just the people that I know, but there's something about them, man.
03:24:53.000
If you look at the biggest political upheavals, these protests that are getting crazy where they're trying to burn down courthouses and shit, it's Seattle and Portland are the craziest.
03:25:07.000
Seattle, they took over six blocks of the town.
03:25:27.000
That's not happening anywhere where it's sunny out.
03:25:38.000
Kind of fucking out of our control and all lies within the environment, I guess.
03:25:45.000
I guess that's not totally accurate, though, because it really did fuck up L.A., too.
03:25:54.000
L.A. seems to have calmed down, at least a little bit, whereas it only seems to have ramped up more in the Pacific Northwest.
03:26:02.000
But goddamn, it's beautiful up there in the summer.
03:26:16.000
You wake up in the morning and even, that's why, like, I don't know if I could live there, but, like, being in the Northwest, the Pacific Northwest is, waking up there is special.
03:26:36.000
It's like there's like a certain smell in the air.
03:26:48.000
What you're smelling is the same thing that people smelled if they lived there a thousand years ago.
03:27:03.000
But you can see it, like, sunrise, you can see it all.
03:27:10.000
That was one of the craziest things about COVID, is when the lockdown hit and people weren't driving, the air quality's never been better.
03:27:26.000
If cars aren't driving, it makes a huge difference.
03:27:33.000
And that's also gonna be a good argument for electric cars, and it's also gonna be a good argument for autonomous vehicles.
03:27:44.000
I was born in New Jersey and mostly grew up in Boston.
03:27:59.000
I'm a professional sports commentator who doesn't know the rules to sports.
03:28:06.000
I enjoy watching Michael Jordan highlights or Kobe Bryant highlights or something like that.
03:28:32.000
I can't just start following the NBA, try to figure out all the games.
03:28:37.000
Oh, well, there's the National League, and then there's the fucking American League.
03:28:51.000
But it gives people a lot of fucking entertainment, man.
03:28:54.000
If you're bored, you know, like for a lot of folks that are stuck in a shitty job, just like we were talking about driving that 68 Charger or a 68 Camaro to work, for a lot of dudes stuck in a job that doesn't give them any thrills, and they know they have to go...
03:29:10.000
They don't have time for anything other than watching something.
03:29:12.000
And they can watch a basketball game and get very invested in the fact that they want their team to win or watch a football game or a baseball game.
03:29:48.000
I wish it didn't fuck people's brains up as much, but that's just how it is with everything.
03:29:53.000
Everything dangerous, everything risky, you run the risk of getting injured.
03:29:57.000
I just hope they figure out a way to fix brains, you know?
03:30:05.000
When you see some of these guys, the speed that they run at each other and they're colliding The fucking physical strength that these people have.
03:30:39.000
Fucking football players, basketball players, everybody.
03:30:43.000
They all deserve a lot of respect, but there's just a danger to football, I think, that's not in as many other...
03:30:51.000
There's a real danger to fighting, there's no doubt.
03:30:53.000
But in fighting, there's a person in front of you, and they're trying to do stuff to you, and you should know how to avoid it, and if you don't, that's just how the game works.
03:31:02.000
But in football, there's like dudes running at each other.
03:31:12.000
And you're running, and they're running, and it's boom!
03:31:19.000
I don't think people would attack the way they attack now if there was no pads.
03:31:25.000
That's an argument for football that's a weird argument, right?
03:31:28.000
Make them play with no helmets and see how they play.
03:31:37.000
I think the football protection started from different injuries.
03:31:44.000
Spinal injuries are huge in rugby, and they were big in football before, too.
03:31:49.000
The neck injuries were what they were trying to prevent for a long, long time.
03:31:55.000
People get paralyzed, and you show that on TV. It's scary as all shit.
03:32:09.000
But that, I don't know, because there's people who are so passionate about it.
03:32:17.000
I would never say they shouldn't be able to do it.
03:32:38.000
When you're watching crazy shit happen on the field, you're like, I need to be there and see one live.
03:32:43.000
Because that's probably when you really get an understanding about fast and moving.
03:32:46.000
We'll go to AT&T. Biggest stadium in the world, right?
03:33:00.000
Ohio Stadium is saying they're going to have 20% capacity.
03:33:04.000
I don't know how much those tickets are going to be, how rare they'll be or whatever, but people probably will be able to be in person at football games if they happen.
03:33:15.000
You know what was bizarre, too, watching the last UFC... No one in the fucking audience.
03:33:23.000
And you get to hear those fuckers getting, like, fucking just cracked on the head.
03:33:33.000
There's something I almost like about it more, watching it that way.
03:33:43.000
Well, it's just, there's no denying that, like, a big crowd, an awesome crowd, like a Conor McGregor crowd is crazy.
03:33:53.000
You know, we're seeing all those people screaming and cheering, and I remember he had Sinead O'Connor sing for him.
03:34:01.000
There's, like, green smoke in the air and everything.
03:34:03.000
Like, it was amazing, and everybody's going crazy when Conor makes his way to the cage.
03:34:09.000
It's just the energy in the room is undeniable.
03:34:13.000
But there's also something amazing about these two dudes in front of each other where there's no crowd.
03:34:32.000
It almost makes you think that this is really kind of the best way to do it.
03:34:36.000
I want people to be able to see it live, for sure.
03:34:46.000
I'm saying this from a real selfish place, right?
03:34:53.000
If they could open it up and it would be safe and everybody could sell tickets, I 100% would want the audience to be full.
03:35:00.000
But there's something about when you're there and there's no audience.
03:35:09.000
Like, man, there's only 10 people in the room watching Tyron Woodley vs.
03:35:16.000
And I'm one of these 10 people calling this shit.
03:35:32.000
And when it's just a fight, man, you see it break.
03:35:44.000
I think some people feed off the crowd, and they love it, and they love the pressure, and then some people, they're better off if there's no crowd.
03:35:52.000
It's almost like a sparring session in an empty gym.
03:35:58.000
Sometimes the physical people in front of you, like just 20,000 people, screaming and cheering for George St. Pierre, and you're like, fuck!
03:36:08.000
And you got to realize like you have to perform all these people hate you They all want you to lose and they all stand there watching you about to fight one of the you know Greatest fighters of all time if you're gonna fight George St. Pierre You gotta get your ass kicked.
03:36:28.000
That guy's a real warrior in the best sense of the word.
03:36:32.000
Meaning, like, if you wanted to have your kid emulate someone who's a martial artist, a gentleman, a really interesting person who thinks a lot about things and treats martial arts as an art form and a discipline and a way to express himself and a way to show that he could be the best,
03:36:52.000
He's as positive a human being as you're ever going to meet.
03:36:55.000
Georges St-Pierre is so positive in so many ways.
03:37:00.000
And undeniably one of the best fighters of all time.
03:37:14.000
He's so nice you wouldn't realize this guy's a killer.
03:37:19.000
But when you're around him, like, he's so nice.
03:37:21.000
You can't believe he beats people up for a living.
03:37:48.000
I was a fan of Anderson's before he made it to the UFC. He was fighting at Cage Rage in the UK. He was dominating people.
03:38:02.000
And then it all came together for him during the years he was fighting in the UK. And that's when everybody had their eye on him.
03:38:08.000
And he beat Lee Murray, and he beat Jorge Rivera.
03:38:13.000
Tony Fricklin, he hit him with this crazy elbow that he practiced.
03:38:22.000
So when he came over to the UFC, we caught him right at his prime.
03:38:26.000
And it's arguable that prime Anderson Silva was the best martial artist ever.
03:38:33.000
When he knocked out Vitor Belfort with that front kick to the face, I mean, some of the shit that he did, man, some of the knockouts that he had, like, he had ESP. He knew where people were gonna be.
03:38:46.000
When he was on, and no fighter can stay on that level for very long, the human body just breaks down.
03:38:51.000
But there's a time where Anderson was so good, I'd put him up against anybody that ever lived.
03:38:57.000
There was a time, it was a few years, where the Rich Franklin years, like Anderson was unstoppable.
03:39:09.000
185. It was 185. So he probably really walked around like 200 plus pounds and would cut weight to 185. So what is that, light?
03:39:22.000
That would have been an amazing fight in its day.
03:39:27.000
John's in his prime and Anderson is, you know, I think...
03:39:51.000
He's one of those guys that could go easily back and forth between 205 and heavyweight if he decided to take enough time to do it.
03:40:01.000
When you watch him grab guys and ragdoll them around, there's a weird strength to him that you see with some of these really elite grapplers.
03:40:10.000
Some of these guys, like when you see top of the food chain grapplers like Yoel Romero, there's something about grabbing people your whole life and throwing them around like Brock Lesnar.
03:40:54.000
That's 100% Viking DNA. Have you ever wanted to know what Vikings looked like when they were terrifying?
03:41:12.000
Fucking trench knife just running up his fucking chest.
03:41:16.000
Doesn't it say death clutch on his back or something, too?
03:41:45.000
I love how they put the little bit of blonde in the black and white photo.
03:41:54.000
That is one of the most preposterous humans that has ever existed.
03:42:07.000
You gotta think of all his accomplishments, because someone put a video up about him, and it showed all the shit that he did.
03:42:14.000
He won a national championship, NCAA Division I national championship in wrestling.
03:42:48.000
So he played preseason at least for the Vikings.
03:42:59.000
So he goes from there to the WWE, then he goes from the WWE to the fucking UFC Heavyweight Championship of the world.
03:43:28.000
So you have to legitimately wonder, how does one make a human like that?
03:43:49.000
Because if we have an army of Brock Lesnar's, bulletproof Brock Lesnar's, that's what everybody's gonna be.
03:44:05.000
To do what he did when he was a WWE champion, so he's the champion of this wrestling entertainment thing, and then he goes from that into the UFC and wins the real heavyweight title and beats a legend in Randy Couture.
03:44:26.000
That's so rare that a guy can do so many fucking things.
03:44:45.000
You have to be really good to beat a guy like that.
03:44:50.000
He got tapped by Frank Mir, got him in a leg lock, caught him, didn't really understand submissions.
03:44:55.000
Alistair Overeem beat him after he had a colon surgery.
03:45:00.000
When he was at his best, he was a terrifying guy too.
03:45:04.000
Him and Brock Lesnar is the battle of the specimens.
03:45:08.000
Have you ever seen that fight between him and Brock Lesnar?
03:45:18.000
He didn't even put anything into that punch, too.
03:45:26.000
You're talking about a guy who's one of the all-time greats.
03:45:54.000
I mean, you gotta deal with some crazy shit with this guy.
03:45:59.000
And again, he did lose some fights, but you gotta realize all the shit he was doing instead of fighting for so long.
03:46:07.000
If Brock Lesnar had just decided to fight from the time he left college, if he never did football, if he never fucked with anything else outside of actual fighting, and just started smashing people, oh my god.
03:46:25.000
Like, when he was in college, if he just embraced MMA the way he embraced wrestling, who knows?
03:46:42.000
It just makes you wonder with a guy like that, like, what if he started earlier?
03:46:47.000
Within his first few fights as a professional, he won the heavyweight champion.
03:47:18.000
So if it's like Bellator or anything, so you fight for Bellator and then you go to UFC. They have contracts.
03:47:27.000
So if you're a Bellator fighter, you would be contractually obligated to fight only for Bellator.
03:47:32.000
No, right, but do those wins from Bellator carry over to you?
03:47:41.000
And then, you know, they'll have like a Bellator record or a UFC record.
03:47:53.000
Then he beat Frank Mir to Defendant, who's a fantastic champion.
03:48:00.000
Then he lost to Cain Velasquez and lost to Alistair.
03:48:13.000
Mark Hunt, like in K1, he was probably at his best.
03:48:18.000
You know, I mean, he really learned like the wrestling, the jiu-jitsu and all that stuff later on.
03:48:24.000
You know, when he was a kickboxer, he was one of the best alive.
03:48:30.000
Yeah, he's like 5'10", but he's like that wide.
03:48:35.000
Again, that's like, you know, you got your Samoan DNA, you got your Viking DNA, stout folk.
