In this episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, I sit down with my good friend and long time fan, Dr. Aaron Soto. We talk about Aaron's journey to becoming a doctor, how he got into medicine, and what he believes about life and the universe. We also talk about the moon and how it affects the tides, and if that's real or not.

00:00:46.000And so trying to figure out my life with no guidance and nobody out there, it's been a real struggle.
00:00:52.000I did a real in-depth reading one time with this person who was like a deep, high-up shaman from Malaysia or over there somewhere, maybe the Philippines.
00:05:11.000I just thought it would be easier to go that way.
00:05:13.000Joe, all this stuff up there, this is all put out by scientists who have been talking about Copernicus and everything else for the last, you know, however many years since, what, 13 something else?
00:05:42.000So it is because of gravity, which is amazing.
00:05:45.000So what I'm getting at is everybody likes to poo-poo the idea that someone can figure out What happens if someone's born during a given time of the year?
00:05:56.000But if the moon has so much of an effect That it changes tides.
00:06:09.000It's a lot of goddamn water, and the gravity of the moon is moving that shit.
00:06:15.000Like, why wouldn't we assume that Jupiter, and what position Jupiter is in the sky, or Mars is in the sky, that all must have some kind of effect on something.
00:06:25.000And if we're water, we're kind of mostly water, aren't we?
00:06:56.000In adult men, about 60% of their bodies are water.
00:06:59.000However, fat tissue does not have as much water as lean tissue.
00:07:03.000In adult women, fat makes up more of the body than men, so they have about 55% of their bodies made of water.
00:07:09.000That's so true because big muscular guys that cut weight for the UFC, they can cut a lot more weight because they're storing it in their muscles.
00:08:19.000You want to explain that, what that concept is?
00:08:20.000So the concept is, it was not a court jester, because court jesters, all they were doing was being funny and goofy.
00:08:28.000The Hayokas and the Thales and the Sacred Clowns and all these were actually religious leaders in the community, but also have the ability to speak and say whatever they wanted.
00:08:38.000And that's like comedians up on stage, when you have like Chappelle and who was Chris Rock and all those other guys.
00:08:45.000They're up there telling jokes, and we should probably talk about this too later on, maybe about the whole transgender and all the other stuff.
00:08:51.000People are getting busted for doing jokes, for being a haoka.
00:08:55.000Haoka's purpose is to mess with our heads a little bit and make us think.
00:08:59.000Yeah, Lakota's idea was that everything should be tested.
00:09:03.000And one of the ways to test ideas is to poke at it and make fun of it.
00:09:07.000Like, there's certain things you can't make fun of.
00:09:10.000But there's certain things that don't want you to make fun of them.
00:09:33.000It's like, some people don't get upset at all.
00:09:35.000And some people get furious if you even breach subjects.
00:09:39.000Which is, I don't think, good for anybody.
00:09:41.000Well, those people who get so upset about those jokes or about all this stuff, how weak are they that they're going to let that affect them to such a point where they get so angry that they attack?
00:09:58.000And I think people feel very different today about their feelings, and they feel very differently today about what it is when someone insults their feelings.
00:10:08.000When we were kids, it was super normal for people to insult your feelings.
00:10:12.000And I don't know if that's good or bad because it's like as I get older, one of the things I realized is like my mom was the child of immigrants.
00:10:24.000And I think like that those generations of people that first came over here, like in the 1940s and the 1920s, They had such a hard, scrabble life, man, that they maybe weren't the nicest people to their kids.
00:10:40.000It's like there was a lot of beating your kid if your kid did something wrong.
00:10:49.000It's like, I don't think you should hit your children.
00:10:51.000I think we know now that it's not a good idea because it really perpetuates more violence and it also sends a message that that's the only way to handle something, is to put physical pain inflicted on your child, which I don't necessarily think is the right way to do it.
00:11:06.000But I do think that there's something about A little bit of adversity.
00:11:14.000It makes you more relaxed around that stuff.
00:11:18.000Whereas with some people today, anything that they think is offensive is such an egregious crime on humanity and they want to attack it with every fiber of their being.
00:11:33.000You just, like, you have such a hard time with, like, especially the Dave Chappelle special.
00:11:37.000Like, why don't you tell me what he said that was so awful?
00:11:40.000Because that was part of the problem, was nobody was saying what specifically he said, which was so horrific.
00:11:46.000But in this case, they really couldn't, because it was really a love letter to his friend.
00:11:50.000I mean, that's like, the last part of it is basically, like, he took his friend, who Killed herself, and he put her as the closing piece of a gigantic comedy special that everyone's gonna see.
00:12:02.000And he did it with dignity, and he did it with kindness, and he did it with true friendship.
00:12:08.000And it's still, still people are furious.
00:13:00.000You always have that medicine person archetype within any culture.
00:13:04.000And back in those days, that medicine person archetype was part of that poking the bear and making sure the king knew, you're not wearing clothes.
00:14:34.000It was, but that's what it was, you know?
00:14:36.000You're going to be out until the street lights turn on and somebody, you know, don't do anything wrong because you're going to get whacked by an older kid or a parent.
00:14:42.000Yeah, someone was going to straighten you home.
00:19:24.000Was that because of the amount of cycles they were running?
00:19:26.000Because I remember there was a thing where they were saying they were running 40 cycles at one point in time, and then they switched it and lowered it because they were getting too many false positives.
00:20:46.000But there's stuff that we've done in the U.S. military at all these bio labs since World War I. Well, we've definitely had these crazy labs.
00:21:35.000He's like, that's what we really have to be worried about.
00:21:39.000Earlier when we were talking about the kids growing up all that, the one thing that I think that we both spoke about, we didn't say the word, it's just respect.
00:22:29.000It's really it's really interesting because there's so much fucking information that's flying around like we were talking about earlier like I don't know if that shit works where they can pinpoint where you were born at the time you were born and figure how it all lines up with the Constellations and have some sort of an effect on you But it doesn't seem totally unreasonable.
00:22:50.000Man, when he was going over all those charts, I kept going, yeah, that's true.
00:22:53.000So the charts were like saying that you're going to have a fucked up life because of all the data that they were getting from this reading.
00:24:33.000You're the guy who got an A in physics.
00:24:36.000Well, I mean, isn't it a thing where they can measure, like, they can look at the mass of a planet and they can say how much gravity, like, right?
00:26:47.000It was like a monster movie in space, and that was the thing.
00:26:50.000They were going to be the first people to do it.
00:26:52.000And so the way they described it in the movie, it's like you would take a piece of paper, fold it in half, put a pencil through the center of them, and then unfold it.
00:26:59.000And you'd go instantaneously through all that space.
00:27:01.000You'd just have to pick the first two spots.
00:28:05.000If you go to the moon, you have to go through those radiation belts, right?
00:28:09.000Well, the way they described it is like it's like a hula hoop, or like, not a hula hoop, like a barrel, but with no top and no bottom, and you can shoot out the top.
00:28:19.000So that's what they do, they shoot out the top.
00:28:20.000And they shoot out the top, and apparently you don't have to go through the Van Allen radiation belts.
00:28:25.000So it'd be at the North and South Pole?
00:28:26.000But then I've heard shit that if you go through the belts, you can go through the belts because it's a short amount of time with high exposure if you have a certain amount of protection.
00:29:42.000Do you know how many satellites supposed to be flying around?
00:29:45.000It is so crazy that we did that without any, like, thought of, like, what happens in the future when these things start crashing into each other.
00:33:23.000And the storyline behind it is really fascinating.
00:33:26.000It's like they wanted to contain this thing and do something with it, which is, I think, exactly what people would do if we encountered something from another planet.
00:33:38.000I don't think they'd tell us about it.
00:36:12.000So then you'd have to figure out what to do with that money because if you need more money for prisons or you need more money for cops or you need more money for teachers, you should now make the case.
00:36:23.000So if everybody gets to vote for everything, that would be really interesting.
00:36:28.000The problem is people don't have time to learn about stuff.
00:36:31.000You know, if you're voting for, like, if there's anything that involves finances, most people have your eyes glaze over, you're barely paying attention to interest rates.
00:36:41.000I was trying to think of what kind of government would that be called?
00:36:50.000Because we are a technocracy right now, you can't deny it.
00:36:53.000Yeah, we're definitely, and it's interesting because I think these entities that became a part of the technocracy, these immense tech companies, It was not their idea to do this.
00:37:05.000Twitter was just trying to come up with a thing where you could talk to your friends.
00:37:11.000Facebook was like, I just want to hook up with somebody.
00:37:13.000Or meet friends from high school and meet back up with them.
00:37:18.000You remember that when people would put like, at Jamie Vernon is going to have pizza?
00:37:25.000Do you remember the earliest days of Twitter?
00:38:06.000I don't know if they know, because it's not whether or not they're false, it's whether or not the method they use to find out is the most effective method.
00:38:17.000But if Twitter knew it had false accounts, and it had a lot of other false data going through there, and they were saying these are our numbers, they were given false numbers to the SEC. Perhaps, but I don't think that would be with their knowledge.
00:38:29.000It's very complicated, because how do you prove that an account is real?
00:38:34.000And there's also a problem, there's people that have real accounts, but they use them like they're not a real account.
00:38:40.000So they have a real account, and they log in, but they don't post at all.
00:38:43.000They just read stuff, which is fine, right?
00:39:09.000There's accounts that are fake accounts that are these internet research agency accounts that they're like indistinguishable from regular people.
00:39:22.000They're getting people to comment on stuff for the account and they, you know, they seem real reasonable or they act like a normal person and they're just literally like, it's a fucking, it's not even AI, man.
00:39:33.000It's like a room full of people are doing this.
00:40:23.000It's like super deep web complicated program, but it will pigeonhole you.
00:40:28.000And so if you start running something really conservative and making comments and really hitting it hard, you know, on all that stuff and liking it, your account will become more and more conservative.
00:40:37.000If you have a liberal account and you're doing a lot of liberal stuff on there, and I'm saying Democrat, GOP, whatever, left, right, I do it because I want all the data.
00:40:48.000And the thing is, if you're going to start pigeonholing me because of stuff I say, then I want to be pigeonholed as far as I can get on that one account.
00:40:56.000And then same thing for the other one.
00:41:02.000And there's also a place out there, it's a website, where it actually takes left, center, and right, and it gives you the data from all those places.
00:41:11.000It's a really cool comparison website, and it does it for politics.
00:41:14.000That's a weird thing about the whole algorithm, that it does sort of curate information.
00:41:23.000That's what I was trying to get through.
00:41:25.000Because that's what you're into, so that's what it gives you.
00:41:27.000And it gives you things that you get upset by because those are the things you engage with the most.
00:41:33.000So can you imagine if I only had one of those accounts?
00:41:36.000So if all I had was a conservative account and that program I was moonraked into all of that area, I'm going to see so much anti-left and so much other stuff and everything I'm being fed is going to make me angrier and angrier against the opposite.
00:43:13.000It was designed, I think, to enhance the experience.
00:43:16.000So if you like watching European football, So you're looking for these matches, and then all of a sudden it's suggesting all sorts of other matches, and it's like, oh, this is great.
00:43:29.000It helps you engage the platform more.
00:43:31.000But then people are so crazy that what we want to do is get upset by stuff.
00:43:36.000And even though the world outside, like Bill Hicks used to have a great joke about that, about watching CNN, and about like, you know, they were talking, AIDS, disease, death, everyone's gonna die.
00:43:46.000You know, you'll never live to be a hundred.
00:44:26.000And there's a lot of people who do that.
00:44:28.000And that is one of the things that's heightened us on top of the pandemic.
00:44:33.000So you have the pandemic that fucked everybody up, and then you have this social media that's sort of naturally accelerating everybody's anxiety and freaking everybody out.
00:44:42.000And it's closing in all our echo chambers.
00:44:50.000I just think that's what we fell into.
00:44:51.000Our whole country is falling into that trap.
00:44:54.000There's a lot of people that I knew that were pretty reasonable people that during the pandemic especially just ramped things up to such an extreme.
00:45:03.000You're like, my God, man, are you okay?
00:46:41.000That's a little bit about what I was talking about when we get into those echo chambers and we get all the negativity and when that underlying program is constantly feeding us all the information to make us deeper and deeper into our own...
00:46:55.000You know, nihilistic, you know, self, everything.
00:46:58.000It's just, it's our way to pull in all the data.
00:47:01.000So the loose trap is a, it's a negative, it's piling on all the negative feelings and negative information and making people get, ah, that anxiety, that angst, that anger.
00:47:12.000And so the loose is actually, it's probably going into religion and spirituality a little bit.
00:47:17.000But if you believe That there's good in the world, and you also kind of have to believe that there's also the opposite.
00:47:24.000If you believe that good energy can heal, like there was that one experiment they did at some university or somewhere where everybody got around a thing of water, and they give good vibrations and good energy to the water.
00:47:38.000Then they studied the water under a microscope, and the water was in this really cool geometric shape.
00:47:43.000And they did the same experiment with some water, and they were angry at it and yelling at it and being mean to it, and the water was all discombobulated and weird-looking.
00:47:50.000I saw that, but I didn't know if that was bullshit.
00:47:52.000I was always going to ask you, Jamie, to look that up.
00:47:54.000That'd be a good one to look up, because tell you what, and because we're so much water- If that's real, that's crazy.
00:48:49.000What it really is, is when you have a camera that's filming, like unless it's a super high-speed camera, when a bug flies across it, it shows like a trail.
00:49:00.000It doesn't just show a bug that's moving across the stream.
00:49:03.000But when they have like a 4K camera, like one of those high-definition cameras, then you see it's just a bug.
00:49:09.000So this show called, I think it was Monster Hunters, they showed it on TV. I'm like, God damn it, I'm so dumb.
00:51:30.000In this, 2003, James Randi published an invitation to him offering him to take the $1 million Paranormal Challenge in which he could have received a million dollars if he could reproduce the experiment under test conditions and he did not receive a response.
00:51:45.000The water stuff, it's showing, like, snow, you know, like crystals when they turn into snow, and then it's a bunch of other weird pictures, and it's just showing pictures.
00:51:53.000There's no, like, science on how to reproduce it.
00:54:17.000And no matter who you're praying to, God or Yahweh or the Creator or the Maker, whoever you want to pray to, if everybody's on the same frequency, everybody's on the same energy, and they're giving you all this energy, how could that be bad?
00:54:50.000But people speculate this is maybe how the pyramids might have been made because of the frequencies that people think they make or could have made, you know, back when they existed in the way they did in their original form.
00:57:10.000Why don't we ever talk about the fact that we were very advanced Human beings doing amazing things, the pyramids and doing this and floating rocks and doing space stuff maybe back in those days.
00:57:25.000Well, you know, I think civilization has these rises and falls, and we always want to believe that we're in the middle of rising, that we're at the highest level that people have ever been.
00:57:38.000Because we're way higher than anybody that we know of.
00:57:41.000And when we look back a thousand years from now, yeah, we're way more advanced than them.
00:57:45.000But when you take into account the Younger Dryas Impact Theory, it gets real confusing because you start going, well, okay, if that did happen, like how smart were people 12,000 years ago?
00:57:57.000If the US was really covered, half of it was covered in a mile-high sheet of ice, And people were creating these insane structures, like insane, whether it's the pyramids of Egypt or, I mean,
00:58:13.000I don't know what year Machu Picchu was made, but a lot of people date it back a long time ago as well.
00:58:19.000I mean, is Machu Picchu from that era?
00:58:21.000Like, when do they think Machu Picchu was constructed?
00:58:45.000Oh, that might be just one of those things.
00:58:47.000There's one of those things where, like, archaeologists, they'll date a thing.
00:58:52.000And, you know, you can't really date stone.
00:58:54.000So they date, whether it's biological material, they have to find a piece of wood or something that they can do a carbon dating or something on.
00:59:46.000I mean, when you get to looking at stuff like the Great Pyramid of Egypt, and they placed that somewhere around 2500 BC, maybe they're right.
00:59:59.000There's so much shit there that's below that.
01:00:01.000There's so much stuff that they find, like these old kingdom structures that are under the ground.
01:00:06.000There's old subway systems under the pyramids.
01:00:08.000How about all the stuff they're finding in the Amazon?
01:00:10.000They're finding all these ancient civilizations in the Amazon that could have been immense and had who knows how many fucking people living in these really complex grids.
01:00:22.000So I've been buying old encyclopedias.
01:00:26.000So I'm trying to find, like I have an encyclopedia from 1910. I have another book of, it's a single book and it's like the world knowledge book or something.
01:00:37.000But I'm trying to get all these really old books.
01:00:39.000Because you've got to figure that all of history, everything that's written down, is written by the victors.
01:00:44.000That's what happens to everything else.
01:00:46.000And so if you're looking pre-World War I for the data, and I think if you want to know anything for sure, you have to go before World War I. Really?
01:00:54.000Because I think everything was changed.
01:01:00.000They're taking words out of the dictionary, and they're changing stuff, and they're saying that this is wrong, and they're constantly correcting historical documents.
01:01:08.000The encyclopedia today is not going to be the same as my 1910 encyclopedia.
01:01:17.000I really believe that, like if you start looking at Rockefeller and a lot of the really big, you know, rich moguls from back in those days, they changed the schools, they changed universities, changed how we think, they changed how we educate.
01:01:30.000They started changing the entire medical, you know, system from all this really good homeopathic, really cool stuff to all this pharmaceutical stuff based on oil.
01:01:39.000I just think there's so much things going on in those days when they had a chance to do it that now we are brainwashed to think that all of these natural herbs and all this stuff doesn't do anything for us.
01:01:51.000The only thing that can help is if you take this aspirin.
01:01:53.000The only thing that can help is if you take this one vaccine.
01:01:56.000He says, no, there's all this other stuff that's been going on for thousands of years, but they're covering it up.
01:02:01.000They're erasing those parts of history and saying that this is the way you do it.
01:02:55.000Why can't we look at all these herbs and say, if I take this willow bark and I scrape this down and I do this, and there's aspen trees, there's all these different trees and all these different herbs that have really good benefits.
01:03:29.000Well, I just do brush to get stuff out, but basically my mouth bacteria is at a point right now, just like your stomach, all those bacteria, there's good bacteria and bad bacteria.
01:03:45.000So you think we've been fucking ourselves over with toothpaste?
01:03:47.000I think a lot of pharmaceuticals and a lot of stuff out there isn't always the right stuff for us.
01:03:52.000It is a common misconception that aspirin is found in the bark of the willow tree.
01:03:56.000A related compound called salicin does indeed occur in the willow bark, thereby explaining the use of the bark as a medication since the name, since the time of Hippocrates.
01:04:08.000Okay, so it works like, it's just a different thing that works like aspirin.
01:05:30.000Giant human skeletons were found by the thousands and destroyed by the Smithsonian.
01:05:35.000An old hoax has resurfaced in an Instagram meme claiming that giant skeletons were found but were destroyed because having to explain the existence of these skeletons contradicted the evolution of mankind and creation, end quote.
01:05:49.000The July 25th post by the user Conspiracy Theories, which is probably a Russian anyway.
01:05:59.00054,700 likes reads, giant skeletons were found by the thousands, but most were destroyed or thrown in the ocean by the Smithsonian and Vatican.
01:06:11.000Because it shows in the newspapers throughout the entire 1800s and in the 1900s in the United States, there are almost every week a farmer was digging up a giant skeleton.
01:06:21.000But did they take pictures of these things?
01:10:33.000If the report of the fossilized skeleton of a giant 18 feet tall Has been found near Seymour, Texas is true.
01:10:41.000It is the most important ethnological discovery ever made in the world, remarked Dr. J. E. Pierce, professor of anthropology at the University of Texas.
01:10:51.000I bet he probably said that with the most mocking tone ever.
01:10:56.000Do you understand that it would be the most important ethnological discovery ever made in the world?
01:11:28.000Or it could be that it became a myth that just gets repurposed.
01:11:34.000And like a lot of things, like the Mothman or a lot of these things that people believe they're seeing, you hear about it and then you claim you see it.
01:13:35.000I think the Bigfoot one is probably, if you go back to that Younger Dryas impact theory, that apparently they think that could be what was the cause of mass extinction of an enormous number of the megafauna on North America in particular.
01:13:52.000It all happened around that time period.
01:13:54.000And they think if that was a real animal and it existed at one point in time and co-existed with people, it could have died off just like the mammoth did, a lot of other animals did during that time period.
01:14:06.000Saber-toothed tigers, they all died off around then.
01:14:44.000They think it probably happened somewhere around 12, and I think they think it might have happened again around 10,000 years ago.
01:14:49.000And every time that happened, I guarantee you, if there's enough of that nuclear glass that they find, and enough iridium, which exists when they do the core samples, and they get to that time, there's enough to indicate impacts.
01:18:33.000A lot of people have seen things come out of the ocean.
01:18:36.000A lot of people have, including that Tic Tac, that experience that Commander David Fravor had that was off the coast of San Diego in 2004. Did you ever hear about this story?
01:18:49.000Commander David Fravor, he's a naval pilot, rock solid, just everything about him.
01:18:58.000You believe every word out of his mouth, never had an outrageous day in his life that was like this.
01:19:05.000And then one day, he has this thing that they see that's hovering over something that's in the ocean.
01:19:12.000So something is in the ocean below the surface, whether it looks like the size of an aircraft carrier or something, and there's something above it Thing that's shaped like a tic-tac and I think they said it was like how big was that thing it's like 20 feet long So it wasn't that big wasn't that big whatever this thing is they tracked it on radar going from 50,000 feet above sea level to 50 in less than a second They don't know what happened.
01:19:42.000They tracked it with, they got video of this thing, and they had eye contact by two different jets that saw this thing, and they were communicating about it, and they were discussing it, and he's talked about it.
01:19:55.000And then whatever that thing was, jammed their radar, or actively jammed their tracking, which is technically, supposedly an act of war, that's what they say, and then it immediately vanished at this insane rate of speed and went directly to their cat point.
01:20:09.000So it knew where they were supposed to go later in their journey.
01:22:26.000Like, why would that make it a worse movie?
01:22:29.000They always make the movies screwed up like that, though.
01:22:32.000But isn't that like, if you're bringing SEALs on and you're going to talk to them and there's like a SEAL thing in the movie, how arrogant are they to disrespect the SEALs by coming up with shitty tactics that you would never do?
01:26:45.000We haven't even talked about the fun stuff yet.
01:26:48.000Yeah, there's a lot of fun stuff we're talking about.
01:26:49.000In Ben Shapiro's video he's talking about how there are certain people that really do believe that because they're wealthy they know better and they want to just assume control over things.
01:28:05.000When I retired, you keep your rank with you.
01:28:08.000And I think everybody does it to a certain extent.
01:28:10.000And so because we had that power, because we had authority and all that stuff within our rank, within our expertise as a SEAL, It doesn't count in a civilian world.
01:28:19.000And so when I'm speaking to people, sometimes I would make that mistake.
01:28:22.000I would start becoming that chief again.
01:28:25.000And I would start talking to them as I was a chief, telling them what to do rather than working out a way to do it.
01:28:33.000I think that transition from military to civilian is a really tough one because we can't get rid of that attitude that we know better because I was a chief.
01:29:12.000Some people think so different than you, and they're fucking adamant about it.
01:29:16.000Like, when you watch pro-lifers and pro-choice people scream at each other, you're like, wow!
01:29:22.000Like, that's one of the best examples of how differently people think, whether it's because of ideology or religion or what causes you to be so...
01:29:32.000So rock solid and rigid in your principles, whether you're right or wrong.
01:29:35.000It's a strange thing when they collide with someone who is diametrically opposed to you, but equally passionate that they're right.
01:29:43.000And you watch people scream at each other like, whoa, we're so strange.
01:30:13.000They believe so much that we're fucked.
01:30:16.000Those people are almost all Democrats.
01:30:18.000The people that think everything's going to be okay and that we'll figure it out and it's not nearly as bad as everyone's saying, those are all Republicans.
01:30:27.000But if you talk to all the climate change people and you ask them about the Younger Dryas or you ask them about history, historical times that we've had, this earth, In the ice ages or being bombarded by whatever, we've gone through this before.
01:31:37.000But then everyone's scared of nuclear.
01:31:39.000But nuclear seems to be one of the only ways where you can generally assume that unless there's a meltdown, you're going to get some pretty solid power out of that.
01:31:49.000It's not nearly as environmentally impactful until it goes really bad.
01:31:56.000When I was working on the Iron Man project...
01:32:36.000We're getting there, but if you think about that kind of a suit, that exoskeleton, How are you going to move that exoskeleton, those people?
01:32:44.000So if you had a squad, let's just say you had 12 dudes in those exoskeletons, what airplane are you going to use?
01:33:04.000But that's one of the issues that we're running into is the fact that if we start going in this direction, we start going to exoskeletons, we have to change everything else.
01:33:12.000And when we were doing it, it was like the long pole in a tent for the, you know, and I was on these think tanks and I was always like the innovator.
01:33:19.000I was a weird SEAL. You already know that, I guess.
01:35:29.000Like right now, I mean, my back is just toast.
01:35:31.000All the SEAL Team guys, because we carry those large rucksacks and constantly out there, you know, free-falling, jumping, parachuting, all that stuff.
01:35:40.000So what we're trying to do is trying to get it just first as like load carrying.
01:35:44.000And so they made it try—and that was one of my biggest pushes in the beginning of Iron Man was I said we need to build everything as non-energy consumption.
01:35:53.000Everything has to be, you know, pneumatic or springs or somehow using our body to propel everything.
01:36:01.000Because if this whole thing shuts down, the battery turns off, you have to still be able to move, a little bit at least, to be able to get over from here to cover over there.
01:37:17.000So inside of these little things on his legs, and up around his waist, it might be slightly powered, but those things on his legs, and he'll have up there will be like a piston.
01:40:08.000Do you think they'll develop like a humanoid-type robot, or do you think they'll keep everything to that, you know, they have that sort of dog-shaped one that you see, the four-legged one?
01:40:45.000Satellite or even long range, you know, HF. But you hook it up and you have your eye reticle and then that's directly eye reticle with the sight and everything in it to the robot with the gun on it.
01:40:56.000So wherever I'm looking at, the gun is going.
01:40:58.000So I can look and I can see what he's looking at, I can see what I'm looking at and then put them both over each other and then take my shots from the robot or myself.
01:41:14.000And then, like, it somehow or another focuses.
01:41:16.000So, like, if you think if you're playing a game and you have triggers in your fingers and you're, like, in a first-person shooter, like Quake or something like that, if you're aiming with your actual eyes, wouldn't that be way better?
01:46:44.000They don't know that until they do it, and then someone comes up with a better thing, and then they have to come up with a better thing than the better thing.
01:46:49.000Like, make it smaller, make it half, half the size.
01:47:07.000It doesn't get there like they just sit in a lab and think about it and come up with all the possible counters to this, and so they get paralyzed by analysis.
01:47:17.000But what's more effective, a SEAL Team platoon or a battalion of regular 11 Bravo Army dudes?
01:47:25.000I would imagine a SEAL Team is more effective.
01:47:27.000And it's the same thing with giant carriers.
01:47:29.000The giant carrier, or let's have 10 smaller ones.
01:49:51.000If I go to a hospital and there's something bad wrong with me and I got to take blood or do anything, they have to work off of a male template or a male foundational data.
01:50:34.000And I'm saying if half those people would just start telling the truth, then we'd be a lot better off.
01:50:40.000When you see something like the Lea Thomas thing, the swimmer, when you see her winning all these competitions as a female, but then as a male being number 462,
01:53:19.000But what I'm not for is us pretending.
01:53:21.000I'm not for us pretending that someone who's a biological male doesn't have advantages, especially when we're really blurring the lines of, like, how long do you have to be identified as a female for?
01:53:33.000Like, how much hormones do you have to take?
01:53:51.000He had such advantages over the average person just by nature of being born Roy Jones Jr. But we accept that in the spectrum of males.
01:54:01.000But the difference between what you're saying is that the spectrum of males where you, as a person who's not really training, would not be competitive against the males, you still would be against the females.
01:54:12.000Because it crosses over where it puts you in like a journeyman, female, pro-fighter level.
01:54:20.000But here's the rest of the conversation of what I really believe is with Lea Thompson?
01:54:44.000And so if you're talking about competition and you have a rule book, And if that rule allows Leah to compete, then why are you complaining?
01:54:53.000Well, because you have been a biological woman in your whole life, you've worked really hard to get to a position where you get a scholarship, and you get a scholarship based on swimming, and you want to have an amazing academic career, and you keep showing up second place to a biological man.
01:55:07.000And you think that in your mind you should be number one, because against other women, you have dedicated yourself more, you put in more time, you're more focused, but you can't get over that hump of the XY chromosome biological male who's dominant.
01:56:14.000But it seems like we have to get to that level before we're willing to give.
01:56:19.000But I think it's again, it's one of those things where it becomes like people get ideological about what you accept and what you don't accept.
01:56:26.000I feel like, personally, we should accept anything that doesn't hurt other people.
01:56:30.000Like, with what you're doing, whatever you say you want, if that makes you feel better, I'm with you.
01:56:36.000As long as it doesn't hurt anybody else, why would anybody care?
01:57:15.000If you live your life as a woman and then transition to male, it doesn't work that way.
01:57:20.000Or if you're just biologically female your whole life.
01:57:23.000But if you're a biological male and you're built like Brock Lesnar and then you decide to transition, there is not a woman alive that can stop you.
01:58:13.000There was a Muay Thai fighter in Thailand, and he started off his career as a he, and then transitioned to be a she, and then when she transitioned to be a she, she decided to get the full operation, and when she got the full operation, she lost all of her testosterone,
01:58:34.000So she went from being this elite assassin kickboxer to all of a sudden the testosterone is completely cut off but continues to engage in fighting because it's what she's good at and is just getting wrecked by dudes, unfortunately.
01:58:54.000So we know it does, but does it change enough to compete against women?
01:58:57.000That's the question, especially when it comes to fighting.
01:59:00.000I think as long as you're above board with it and you tell the woman, just like I'm in favor of Jermaine Durandamy's fight, you do whatever you want to do.
01:59:31.000If you're a wrestler, and you're an elite wrestler at 134 pounds, and you're a fucking assassin.
01:59:35.000You're out there pinning people, and you're going undefeated.
01:59:38.000You become NCAA Division I national champion, and then you go to the Olympics, and they decide we're not going to have weight classes anymore.
01:59:53.000Well, now you have to go against Corellin.
01:59:55.000So here you are, some 134-pound, really elite wrestler who should be an Olympic gold medalist, and you're going to get your spine snapped in half.
02:01:15.000He was so fucking strong that guys would flatten out on the ground to try to lay down and spread themselves out to keep him from hoisting them up in the air.
02:03:34.000And also, if we had the right attitude, that we're really just a community, and if Republicans met Democrats, just like in a regular setting, we could sit down and have a meal together.
02:03:44.000People could have normal conversations, and that's how we should be.
02:04:14.000And I have, like, a different approach to it.
02:04:16.000And I said, if we want to fix the polarization in America right now, we could fix it.
02:04:21.000All of us individuals, the people, we could fix all this polarization within one election cycle if every American citizen registered as an independent.
02:04:40.000But if you can get most of the Americans to register independent, that means that the Democrats and the Republican parties could not count on your vote.
02:04:47.000So they would lose their permanent base.
02:04:51.000So they couldn't be as extreme as they are because you would lose all those independents.
02:04:56.000So you'd have to kind of like be more careful about what you say and what your policies are.
02:05:00.000Because most of their promises everyone of the politicians made during all their elections, they don't really do them.
02:05:06.000They do all this extreme stuff and all this extreme language, and then to get their vote from their party, then as soon as they get in there, they go middle.
02:05:15.000It's like, you remember Charlie Brown, where Lucy always used to pretend that she's going to hold that football, and right when Charlie Brown goes to kick it, she yanks it away.
02:06:41.000It's like there's a lot of people like that out there that are crippled by student debt.
02:06:45.000Like should we really like saddle them down with that when they're 18?
02:06:48.000They don't even understand the concept of time.
02:06:50.000And they can't even use those degrees.
02:06:52.000You know, there's people that are 65 years old that are getting Social Security and their Social Security is getting docked because they owe money for student loans.
02:07:01.000Student loans are the only loans you always owe, no matter what.
02:08:41.000It's not even good for you, believe it or not.
02:08:43.000If you want to be happy in this life, I think you have to have tasks and you have to try to achieve those tasks and you have to work towards things and you have to do things that challenge you and excite you.
02:08:53.000And whether that's an artistic pursuit or whether that's a physical pursuit, whatever it is, it's my belief, and this is just my opinion, that in order to be happy, you have to occupy yourself with difficult things and enjoyable things and also have a great community of loving people.
02:09:17.000If you just have all the money you need for food and shelter and you don't ever have to work, do you know how many people would just ruin their lives and never do anything and wake up when they're like 70 like, oh my god, I did nothing?
02:11:24.000The vast majority are social drinkers who indulge in moderation and only when they're with other monkeys, but never before lunch, and prefer their alcohol to be diluted with fruit juice.
02:11:35.00015% drink regularly and heavily and prefer their alcohol neat or diluted with water.
02:13:26.000So we were talking about, like, the way you felt, the way you felt, where you felt like you were a woman and that this was wrong, like you were in the wrong body or the wrong...
02:14:47.000Now, when did you start expressing it outwardly?
02:14:51.000I mean, to anyone else besides just myself in private, like, hiding, like, totally 100% scared, not until I was, like, in college, to one of my sisters.
02:15:02.000So it was very, like, I was scared, man.
02:15:05.000I was, like, I didn't know what was wrong with me.
02:15:17.000Like, even as a high schooler, I was into philosophy.
02:15:20.000I was in all this reading trying to figure out what is wrong with me.
02:15:23.000Can you imagine a kid growing up like that and figuring out biology, religion, philosophy, all of it, and not finding any answers in anything?
02:17:20.000Oh, I never graduated or gravitated towards anything feminine.
02:17:24.000Like, I was always trucks and guns and motorcycles, and there was never anything feminine in my life.
02:17:32.000Well, what's fascinating is you're really, really honest, right?
02:17:35.000So when you're talking about this, and it's unquestionably a courageous thing to live your life very publicly the way you do and talk about this, especially as a SEAL. I hate that word courage applied to just being out.
02:17:48.000But just being authentically yourself, no matter what you do, takes courage.
02:17:53.000They do a job because their dad wants them to do it, and they stay in that fucking business until they're resentful and old, and they realize they've fucking wasted their life.
02:18:06.000Whatever it is, whether it's your gender identity, whether it's your occupation, Whether it's where you live.
02:18:12.000You should express yourself and live your life the way you want to live.
02:18:14.000We should all share that, that need to let people be who the fuck they are and to listen to what they're saying.
02:18:21.000So when someone like you, who wasn't living in this world today where people worry about that it's so high profile and there's so much social status attached to it, and there's a lot of discussions about it where it's like in the social zeitgeist in such a strong way.
02:18:36.000But your situation illuminates the very real dilemma that someone has when they're in your spot.
02:18:50.000Why would I go from the SEAL teams retiring and being like that caveman with a big beard Being recruited into three-letter agency-type work and making over $200,000 a year, that's where I was.
02:19:02.000I was at that top level walking into the Pentagon and walking into any agency.
02:19:30.000And after a while, you're just kind of like...
02:19:32.000And I was at that point, I was like, man, I'm running these programs and I'm not getting an email to go to that meeting because it's that...
02:19:39.000It's a very private way to not be prejudiced, but to not invite somebody.
02:19:46.000Do you think that that would happen today?
02:20:49.000So he saw it all and then he became Secretary of Defense and so the conversation started at that point in 2014-15.
02:20:57.000When you decided to show up for work wearing a dress, is it because that's official outfit for females?
02:21:04.000No, I mean, at the time I was already retired, and I was wearing a suit and tie.
02:21:09.000I was retired, so I was a suit and tie, civilian, making big money, doing all of my inventions and innovation for the military and Department of Defense.
02:22:36.000I don't do that stuff anymore because I was going through as a 40-something-year-old going through puberty.
02:22:42.000Trying to figure out, who am I? I mean, that's what you're supposed to do as a teenager.
02:22:46.000Who am I? And as a teenager, you try to give your teenager as much room as possible to try to figure out who they are during their teenage years.
02:22:55.000You don't want them figuring out when they're 20 because you should be working by now.
02:22:59.000You should be starting your own family.
02:23:01.000If you still don't know who you are by the time you're 25, you have some stuff going on in your head that you need to figure out.
02:23:07.000And so I figure, I'm 40-something years old.
02:23:36.000You know, when you get up to that first jump, free-fall jump, no matter if you're jumping daytime or whatever, it's nighttime because as soon as you go out, you're like cutting your eyes.
02:23:50.000No, I mean, I walked in there, suit and tie, put nails on that morning, and then walked into the Pentagon because I couldn't turn back now.
02:23:58.000So I was walking in there and going, well, I'm there now.
02:24:01.000And I walked up to the first entrance to the Pentagon, which you have to go through a few different badges for me because I had to go into the deep stuff.
02:24:07.000So I walk into the first gate out there by the metro and show my badge, and the guy's looking at it, and he's going...
02:24:13.000And the guy was, like, seriously looking.
02:24:14.000And I says, yeah, I started out as a dude.
02:24:39.000So all these doors I'm going through, I'm having to see people I see every day, and now I'm looking all like, that was the most nerve-wracking.
02:24:47.000When you talk about courage, and I don't like using that word for just showing up, I think courage is like way more than just showing up.
02:24:54.000That's why I didn't like it applied to, what's her name, who's the famous one, Jenner.
02:25:00.000When they start talking about the Courage Award and all this, I go, no, that's not courage.
02:26:29.000He's one of the greatest SEALs that I've ever worked with because he's so open-minded and so inquisitive and so like, that guy's a thinker.
02:26:36.000Is there a fear that they have when someone does something like that?
02:26:40.000Were they worried that maybe you from combat duty had some sort of serious mental issue?
02:28:13.000Without it being easier, maybe you wouldn't have had all this shit on your mind because you felt like, hey, these people that believe in me and I've been a colleague of them for years, they just accept this as just a new thing.
02:29:18.000I really appreciate that you have that honesty because I think this is such a unique window into someone who's experiencing this that for you to be very honest about how it affected the way you did your job, I think that's really important and I commend you for that.
02:30:20.000I'm right now doing my master's degree, graduate school in mental health counseling.
02:30:24.000And so I've been studying tons of psychology and all this mental health stuff and human development from You know, birth, fruit, everything.
02:30:33.000I've been studying this stuff like hardcore now for almost three years.
02:30:36.000Just stop and think about people that were Lakotas living on the plains in the 1700s.
02:30:42.000Why would they invent something like that?
02:31:51.000It should be just something that people just accept.
02:31:58.000I think the things like the swimming issue and the sports issue in the Olympics, that's one of the dividing things.
02:32:04.000It's a sidetrack, but unfortunately it puts a wedge into what should be Live your life like you want to live your life, as long as it's not hurting anybody.
02:32:11.000As long as it's good for you, that's what you like, good.
02:32:16.000That's how we really should treat all of it.
02:32:18.000And I feel like, unfortunately, when it comes to things like sports, where people are like, hey, hey, hey, now you're getting ideology in the way of fairness, in the way of real equality, like the equality that a woman has to be able to pursue athletics against other women.
02:33:26.000It comes from You don't ever want to be the person that gets picked on, so when you see an opportunity to pick on someone, especially when you see young kids in the playground, that's what they do, right?
02:33:35.000They find the one boy who's weird and they pick on him.
02:33:39.000If we could figure out a way to show how pathetic that really is and how bad that is, and it's like the only reason why you're doing it is because you're insecure.
02:33:48.000If you were really secure, you wouldn't want to do that.
02:33:51.000You'd want to protect that person and go, come on, leave them alone.
02:33:58.000The problem is these people that are really afraid of their own masculinity or whether or not it's solid or whether or not they're respected or whether they're insecure.
02:34:06.000So they see someone who seems to be more insecure than them and they attack it.
02:34:32.000Because you don't want that dog to interbreed with the rest of it because then the whole species is weaker because now you don't have a weak link.
02:34:37.000Well, you could say that dogs have been affected by human beings because they most certainly have, right?
02:35:57.000But a person like me, if we were in the old days those intellectual, spiritual guides or those people who had that knowledge because we could see it from all these different sides, why can't we just say that's my position as the archetypes, the Joseph Campbell archetypes, the Carl Jung?
02:36:13.000If you look into the actual who we are as people and you look at all those archetypes, And we study them, and we say, this is who we are.
02:36:21.000You can fall into any one of these categories.
02:36:23.000Why don't kids learn that at a younger age to know that this is a necessary thing?
02:36:28.000Like, if you're being a bully because you're picking on that nerd, and we need that chemistry computer nerd, because that's where they fall into the hierarchy of who we are as people.
02:36:47.000If you don't have those heoka and sacred counts and styles and all those history, intellectual, challenging things, that I want the truth.
02:36:56.000And I'm going to challenge you to figure out the truth.
02:36:58.000And right now we're not doing that because we're so stuck on these freaking stereotypes that I'm this and you have to respect my gender.
02:37:04.000I said, I don't want you to respect my gender.
02:37:07.000I want you to respect the ability for me to critically think and intellectually look at this from all these different sides and tell you that this is what I find is the truth.
02:40:12.000It's like, the thing that separates us is groups.
02:40:15.000Like, the idea that we're in the American group versus the Russian group.
02:40:19.000Like, one day, I think, what technology, what they're probably scared of, what they really want to avoid, is that there will be no boundaries.
02:40:27.000Between physical experiences, languages, you could be able to travel wherever you want, money will be decentralized, they'll have no control over people anymore, and then people will govern based on what's good for people.
02:40:41.000I hope not too, but I think that we have to get to a point where we just realize that a lot of our tendencies Yeah.
02:41:07.000Or someone gets through it like someone else that might be exemplary.
02:41:09.000You could see how they can give you some insight as to their struggle and maybe we can all take that into consideration and just treat people a little nicer.
02:43:32.000I think that's what's happening with, I mean, if you look at, there's a real problem with humans right now with contamination from plastic.
02:43:40.000And that was highlighted by this woman, Dr. Shanna Swan, who wrote this book Countdown, which is terrifying.
02:43:46.000Was she the one that found in microplastics on both sides of the womb?
02:43:50.000I don't know if she's the one who found that, but she's the one who did the studies on phthalates.
02:43:54.000Phthalates are chemicals that come from plastics that are directly attributed to a changing of the child in the womb.
02:44:01.000So when the mother has a lot of phthalates in her system, it shrinks the penis size, shrinks the testicle size, shrinks sperm counts.
02:44:08.000And there's like a direct correlation.
02:44:10.000Her research highlights, and she's legit.
02:44:33.000Okay, she's one of the world's leading environmental and reproductive epidemiologists and a professor of environmental medicine and public health at the Icahan School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City.
02:44:45.000And where'd she get her education from?
02:45:25.000We found out we did it we were talking about the other day like we're guessing because we remembered that a Certain amount of time passes and you've eaten a credit card where the plastic Jamie thought it was a year.
02:45:36.000I thought it was a month It's a fucking week one week one week are you kidding every week?
02:45:40.000The average human being it's a credit card sized piece of plastic because you consume so many microplastics and so many different things and We're just, and it's in our bloodstream.
02:45:52.000And it's also, it does all sorts of weird stuff to your hormones.
02:45:59.000And it's like, we're all drinking water out of water bottles and heating things up in microwaves that are covered in plastic and all that shit is leaking into food.
02:46:06.000And this woman is saying like, hey, this is new data.
02:46:10.000And I believe, was it 2013 when they published that, Jamie?
02:46:15.000The phthalates study where they finally realized that they could make a direct correlation in mammals, and then also they could see it in human beings.
02:46:25.000But in mammals, they know that if you introduce phthalates into the woman when she has a baby, 2009. So in 2009, they figured this out.
02:46:41.000We're fucked because there's a direct correlation between the introduction of petrochemical products and these phthalates and then this decrease in penis size, decrease in taint size.
02:47:06.000So when their taints are shrinking on the males and the penises are shrinking and the balls are shrinking and they find phthalates, they're like, oh my god.
02:48:47.000I'm liberal in a lot of ways, but I'm very conservative when it comes to fiscal responsibility and actual individual responsibility and accountability.
02:48:57.000I think that's one of the big problems we have also is that nobody's responsible for anything.
02:50:38.000I was being extreme because I was a little fucked up, too.
02:50:39.000Discipline is something that one of the things that I love about guys like Goggins and Jocko is like they they preach from the altar of discipline and Discipline equals freedom is one of my favorite Jocko quotes And it's such a great quote because it's true if you have discipline you have more freedom you have you get the things done You're also not as haunted.
02:50:57.000Yeah, you know when you when you have discipline and you get stuff done those things don't fuck with your head like I know people that are putting stuff off, and they go, oh, eventually, and that stuff fucks with your head.
02:51:06.000And it's always hanging over your clout.
02:51:10.000Like, when you had this thing where you felt like you were a woman, and you wanted to express that, and it's hanging over your head, and you're not doing it.
02:52:15.000But if you have that job and you're so dedicated to that job and you're practicing, you get the flow and that's the most in the moment and the most free and the most amazing feeling you ever had when you're in the flow.
02:53:10.000And that in a way, like, any kind of extreme difficult...
02:53:12.000Like, a lot of my friends that do, like, ultra-marathons and shit, they'll tell me that, like, when that's over, they don't have a care in the world.
02:53:51.000This was in my mind, but in the SEALs, when I got in that flow, when you're doing the stuff, I didn't think about anything.
02:53:58.000It was pure SEAL. Yeah, I think a lot of people use very, very difficult pursuits as a form of therapy, as a form of understanding who they are.
02:54:07.000But you find yourself through hard things.
02:54:10.000That's why I like when I would tell people just do something difficult I'm telling I know you don't want to but it's good for you and if you but the problem is also people don't like people telling them what to do so when someone is telling you to do difficult things like fuck you I'm gonna smoke weed and play video games and you think you're being a rebel but you're really fucking yourself over like you really should do whatever you want to do but you should want to do something difficult and Because if you do,
02:55:32.000He does a lot of meditation and mindfulness.
02:55:35.000The guy's just like, he's a really good, solid, physical, like Goggins, but he also gets really deep into the spiritual and the mindfulness of stuff.
02:56:13.000When you look at the numbers, I mean, if it was 10 a day, it's still a lot of veterans.
02:56:16.000I know for a fact that, well, I don't know for a fact, I've read it, that more people died in suicides that were veterans than in combat duty in Afghanistan.
02:56:56.000Is there anybody that gives you any sort of guidelines on how to...
02:56:59.000There is, but it's really hard to find, and I think it's hit and miss, and it's only if you're in that pipeline.
02:57:04.000I think the SEALs and SF guys, I think we have some really good avenues, but I don't think there's a lot for everybody else.
02:57:10.000A friend of mine who is a SEAL told me that SEALs experience PTSD less because they're proactive versus reactive.
02:57:18.000He said the people that experience it the most are the people that are locked down in a place where they're under fire and they feel helpless and they feel trapped and they develop these tendencies more often.
02:57:28.000And he was saying with SEALs, also that they're very high-functioning, very disciplined people who can adapt, that they're a little bit better off at doing it.
02:57:36.000But then there's also physical things.
02:57:38.000Like we were talking about, you know, TBIs.
02:57:53.000There's one that was working with TBI specifically where they put all the things on your head.
02:57:56.000Well, Andrew Marr and my friend Dr. Marr Gordon, they put together this foundation.
02:58:02.000A lot of it, they're dealing with the fact that so many veterans come back that have experienced a lot of impacts, whether it's breaches or any IEDs.
02:58:12.000They develop endocrine problems because their pituitary gland gets damaged.
02:58:16.000And so many of these guys are super depressed because their testosterone stopped production.
02:59:18.000They say people get TBI from fucking jet skis.
02:59:22.000Mark Gordon was telling me that, you know, you don't realize that just, if you're jet skiing every weekend, your brain is rattling around in your fucking, especially if you, like, I see these crazy dudes on the lake that jump over other people's wakes.
02:59:35.000All that stuff is your brain rattling in your head.
02:59:38.000And you don't think you're getting hit, but your brain thinks you're getting hit.
03:01:34.000So whenever they do all those inventions and all that weird SEAL team new stuff, they'd always bring me in for those inventions and making stuff.
03:03:57.000Well, a lot of times when they're folding, they're folding in different types of metal, so they're actually able to do a softer and a harder metal.
03:04:03.000Then you actually sandwich, it's called a...
03:04:09.000TBI. So they actually fold a lot of the soft metal into the spine, and then you have the harder metal down more towards where the edge is, because then you can have that hard metal, you can get super, super sharp, but it's very brutal, too.
03:04:21.000Then if you have it sandwiched around...
03:04:38.000That's an argument with broadheads for arrows, too, for archery.
03:04:42.000Because there's some broadheads that they make out of really hard metal, but it breaks when it hits bone, where other bend around the bone.
03:06:53.000Yeah, I mean, when, you know, there's this guy, J.M. Whitworth, we pulled up his page before.
03:06:59.000He's got a place out here in Texas, and a huge ranch, and they sift through the dirt, and they have this very, like, sophisticated method of finding arrowheads.
03:07:45.000Look how you can see through when he holds it up to the light.
03:07:47.000It kind of makes you wonder, why are there so many out there?
03:07:50.000Well, because the Comanches roamed this land.
03:07:53.000The thing about the hill country, and I found this out originally from reading Empire of the Summer Moon, which is this incredible book about the history of the Texas Plains and the Comanches.
03:08:07.000They roamed this area specifically because there's so much resources with the lake and the river, and the Colorado River goes through.
03:09:38.000There's a lot of stuff that I think about, I don't always 100% believe, but I do want to look into it, because if it was in the newspapers that many times, there's got to be something.
03:10:07.000But now I fight against that in myself.
03:10:10.000So when I get all balls deep in UFOs, then I have to back off and go, wait a minute, Joe, what are you doing?
03:10:15.000You're believing this because you want it to be real.
03:10:17.000So it's confirmation bias and there's a whole bunch of biases that we do that we want that to be true so bad that we cherry pick the data to make it true.
03:11:48.000I was reading, and I can't remember who made this quote, but he was quoting that, If it was sufficient, high enough technology, it would appear to be magic.
03:11:57.000And so the problem with that technology was it was high enough technology to catch the bug, but only partly caught it so it looked like magic.
03:12:05.000But then when you get a higher attack that actually catches the bug, that's like more magic.
03:12:08.000And so what do we have going on right now in the universe that we can't figure out that we are calling magic?
03:12:15.000We're just waiting for the technology to catch up for us to realize what it really is.
03:12:19.000Which is probably what that gravity drive thing is, if Bob Lazar's telling the truth, or if the Tic Tac people are being accurate with what they're seeing.
03:12:28.000That thing that just punches through space and time, that's probably operating in that way, whether it's ours or someone from another dimension or another galaxy or whatever, whatever the fuck it is that's doing that.
03:12:49.000They say these people made it, they were highly skilled, and they had incredible ability to align things, and they did it, and they did it 5,000 years ago with fucking no explanation of how they did it.
03:12:58.000How come they're not excavating around them to try to figure out what all the subway tunnels are below the pyramids?
03:13:07.000Well, there's a guy that's in charge of all that stuff down there, this guy Zawi Hawass, and he's very reluctant to accept any alternative theories other than the ones that they've been promoting forever.
03:13:18.000And so Graham Hancock has had issues with him, as has Robert Shock, Dr. Robert Shock from Boston University.
03:13:24.000He was the geologist that examined the Temple of the Sphinx and was saying that there's water erosion here.
03:14:09.000See if you can pull up a video of water erosion in the Sphinx.
03:14:12.000The images are so interesting because it really does look like what something would look like if water cut through it.
03:14:18.000Like there's a smoothness to it, and it goes in these fissures that look...
03:14:21.000But the last time there was water in the Nile Valley was 9,000 years ago.
03:14:26.000So if that's true, then it has to be thousands of years of water to create this.
03:14:29.000So if Dr. Robert Schock from Boston University, who is a geologist, is correct, that all that erosion is caused by thousands of years of rainfall, which means that thing is way older than they think it is, because that means that those stones were cut somewhere earlier than 9,000 years ago,
03:14:46.000because it had to be thousands of years of rainfall to create that.
03:14:49.000So because of the fact they know that during that time that there was rainfall, it used to be like a tropical rainforest down there, which is also really interesting, right?
03:17:41.000I said, what you need to do is you need to find one of the smaller ones in your local area so that you're keeping your donation local and you're giving it to a local charity that you look at and make sure they're A-rated by that group that rates all the nonprofits and make sure it's a small one that their overhead is like they don't pay their employees because we're all nonprofit.
03:18:00.000If you do pay your employees, it's not a $200,000 CEO salary like Wounded Warrior and all those other guys do.
03:19:04.000You know becoming a seal and then transitioning while you're you know in civilian life Working as a contractor and explaining all this is very It's very valuable for people to hear and your honesty like I said really should be commended because it's hard It's hard to be it's hard to just just open yourself up to people like the way you have But I think you've done a lot of people a great justice by doing that because it I think you do I think it really do I think it helps people it also like There's a lot of people that really,
03:19:34.000really respect veterans and really, really respect SEALs.
03:19:37.000And they might be hesitant to accept transgender people.
03:19:40.000So from hearing it from you, they have to respect you as a SEAL. And then they go, well, maybe I'm wrong about this.
03:19:46.000And maybe they'll allow them to be more open-minded.
03:19:48.000And there's no weakness in being open-minded.
