00:00:21.000Sometimes I'm talking about something, and I've done it too many times, like the introduction to the podcast.
00:00:25.000I go on full-on autopilot, so I don't really know what the fuck is coming out of my mouth until it comes out, and then my brain goes, wait, what?
00:01:02.000And believe me, if you're a person who commutes, especially, I think one of the reasons why I was really into doing this is I think a lot of the people that listen to this podcast listen to it while they're commuting, or you listen to it when you're at the gym, or you listen to it when you're on a plane.
00:01:16.000And what I consider places where you're stuck somewhere, or you would like something to entertain you.
00:01:48.000Audible, if you try it free for 30 days, I guarantee you're going to like it.
00:01:51.000They have a tremendous selection of fiction and nonfiction.
00:01:55.000And the one that I'm going to recommend, they wanted me to recommend one, is The War of Art by a guy named Steven Pressfield.
00:02:01.000And it's a fucking amazing book that really changed my life and made me really understand the roadblocks to being creative and what people do, sort of set themselves up for failure.
00:02:14.000They create little traps and problems in their creative life.
00:02:18.000And this book really outlines that better than anything I've ever written.
00:02:21.000And it's just, to me, one of the most inspirational books that I've ever read.
00:02:27.000I haven't listened to the audio version of it, but I'm sure it's good.
00:03:15.000It's called hemp force, protein powder.
00:03:17.000And we also have kettlebells and battle ropes, along with all the nootropics that we push every week, like Alpha Brain, which I take before every podcast.
00:05:38.000And we also have a 100% money back guarantee on the supplements, especially for the first order, or essentially only, for the first order of 30 pills.
00:05:46.000And if you don't agree, you don't think that it's worth it, then you don't even have to send it back in to get your money back.
00:05:53.000And I think that's important because I don't want anybody to feel ripped off.
00:05:56.000I think the most important thing in selling anything is The most important thing is that you have to sell something of value and people have to appreciate it and enjoy it.
00:06:03.000And if you're not doing that, if you're squeezing money out of people, I don't want to be involved.
00:06:07.000There's nothing that we sell that isn't something that I use and enjoy and that I would recommend even if they didn't give me a nickel.
00:06:13.000Just like I recommend C2O coconut water because it's this shit.
00:09:11.000So I think what they're asking for, if I understand the other side statement, is that they want a higher degree of sensitivity from people.
00:09:52.000I mean, the idea of that joke, that really complete raunchy, like we had Dice Clay on the podcast yesterday, that over the top, that's like a legitimate art form.
00:10:02.000And just because you don't like it doesn't mean you should get so fucking shitty about other people practicing that art form.
00:10:09.000And when you step in and start saying things like, a guy shouldn't have said this certain thing to one certain person in the heat of a moment, I think that's craziness.
00:10:19.000I think that's just straight fucking nonsense.
00:10:22.000So all these people are getting upset at me and they get the wrong impression.
00:11:38.000If you're going to deal with a lifelong proposition, the most important thing is that she's an easy-going person you can actually get along with.
00:11:45.000So that would be the ideal move, is someone who would, you know, be down for fucking.
00:17:13.000Have you ever been at a party and you know there's one dude who has just enough coke for himself, so he's trying to sneak off and do it, but he doesn't want anybody to know.
00:17:20.000And everybody's like, is this motherfucker on coke?
00:20:21.000Like, if you talk to the people, like, that were, you know, doing porn back in the day, those guys were all gacked out of their mind, and they were trying to fuck on camera.
00:20:50.000Do you imagine if there was all this video of you where someone's just sucking your completely limp dick on camera with his three hot chicks and his lights and cameras and guys are standing there and you just can't get up.
00:21:06.000Yeah, I couldn't do it in front of all those people.
00:21:07.000I think that would be the worst part, having just, like, the camera guys and stuff like that.
00:23:20.000It was just basically, I mean, it was like, you know, booty call basically situation, but I guess on her end it was not, you know, I was more than that or something.
00:24:22.000Yeah, when you fuck on camera, isn't it funny, like, automatically you become, like, if that's your choice, automatically you become, like, you never, it's like a caste system in society.
00:24:32.000That's like, that's a fuck up you never really get over.
00:24:34.000You always used to be a porn queen, you know?
00:25:18.000Yeah, that would be hard to deal with, for sure.
00:25:21.000But my real question is, it's really, why are we so weird about our bodies and sex when it's the thing that most people are looking forward to the most?
00:25:30.000At least most dudes are looking forward to.
00:25:33.000More than anything, most of the motivation of most men is to try to get the most amount of pussy possible, or the best pussy, or the best wife, the best girlfriend.
00:25:43.000They want to be a bad motherfucker in order to do well with that.
00:25:47.000That's a weird desire when you really stop and think about it, how much it consumes And then you get to be around 40 and you start thinking about other shit.
00:25:58.000Yeah, but what's crazy is that it's like...
00:26:00.000Unless you got married at like 20 or something, those are the people that...
00:26:04.000Really freak out when they're at 40. That's why everything's falling apart in the middle of your life.
00:26:06.000You have too many questions that are unanswered.
00:26:09.000Yeah, they didn't sow their oats enough.
00:26:11.000I answered, I'd say 99.9% of any questions I had on those levels, I answered.
00:26:18.000But my question is, why is it so weird to watch people fuck?
00:27:32.000No, but then all this, you know, I'm sure there's been many people that have reinforced the psychology for their own benefits and, you know...
00:27:40.000Yeah, I wonder, with all these cell phones now, by the time kids get to be, like, babies of today, get to be grown women and grown men...
00:27:51.000You're probably going to be able to access people's memories.
00:27:55.000You're probably going to be able to watch porn in some sort of a fucking three-dimensional virtual reality where goggles you put on and you live the scene.
00:28:04.000People are going to make their own and you're going to be able to find people fucking.
00:30:11.000If the shit really hits the fan, I mean, you're talking about extinction events, you're talking about the real potential events, things that have happened unquestionably documented all throughout history.
00:30:22.000They've found super volcanoes and All sorts of fucking meteor impacts.
00:30:29.000And there's all these records of them they're discovering just now, like 12,000 years ago.
00:30:33.000They know there was a huge meteor shower that hit the world because this impact glass exists on the same strata, like when they dig and make core samples.
00:30:44.000It exists in the same area all throughout the world about 12,000 years ago.
00:31:36.000I was in New York City when that big East Coast blackout happened, man.
00:31:40.000That was, like, crazy, like, tension because, you know, the whole city thought it was something, you know, the next wave of whatever was coming at them.
00:32:13.000The streets were just flooded with people.
00:32:15.000But the funniest thing to me was instantly, dudes were outside of their little bodegas selling bottles of water for three times what they cost.
00:39:29.000They had bears jumping into people's swimming pools recently.
00:39:31.000See, I always like to live somewhere, because we were talking about craziness, man.
00:39:36.000I like to live places that have resources, other than like, okay, well, if things went really bad, I can walk right out of my backyard, march down that mountain, and go find me a...
00:43:18.000What they were telling me was that Pasadena was where the studio producers and people would live, where the actors would live in the Hollywood Hills.
00:45:29.000I don't know if I've been particularly there.
00:45:32.000I've been to North Carolina many times.
00:45:33.000I've only looked at it online, but apparently it's like this really cool spot in the mountains where it's a small population, a lot of stoners.
00:45:44.000A lot of musicians and really cool people, and they're living in one of the most picturesque parts of the world.
00:45:52.000Like the mountains, like the Asheville, North Carolina, that whole area.
00:45:55.000Asheville, I'm going to have to check it out.
00:47:56.000The thing makes no noise, it's electric, it's awesome on gas, uses less resources.
00:48:01.000God damn, it was boring as he drove away.
00:48:03.000I was like, listen to what the fuck that sounds like.
00:48:05.000Are we going to not enjoy driving anymore?
00:48:08.000Is it really going to get to that at some point?
00:48:09.000I think they're still always going to probably do it.
00:48:12.000There's going to be one company, like Porsche, that's going to be like, we're always going to make...
00:48:17.000I wonder if they'll be allowed to, because they're putting all sorts of crazy restrictions on them as far as the future, like what they're going to have to be able to do as far as emissions.
00:48:26.000That's why a lot of companies are forced to go to turbocharging, because the emission standards are so high.
00:48:32.000They're going to lose the thrill of what an engine is like.
00:48:36.000Whenever you come over here, I get car envy.
00:49:40.000But to get back out to where my car was, I had to walk back in through the Audi dealership, and that's when I saw that they had an all-white R8 in the corner, and I just went over looking at it like, wow, that's kind of sharp, you know?
00:49:50.000And the kid came over and started talking to me, and he was like, yeah, I got a black-on-black one out back.
00:49:55.000You know, I was like, I know I'm not going to buy this car, but yeah, sure.
00:50:47.000I'd always have a truck and I'd have my little BMW 7. Well, your car is a mid-engine car, and that layout is the best layout as far as handling feel and balance.
00:51:15.000Realistically, you don't need that 10. And if you want...
00:51:18.000We're saying 8-cylinder over 10-cylinder.
00:51:19.000But if you wanted to, there's a company that puts a supercharger on the 8 and makes it more powerful than the V10. And it doesn't cost that much.
00:51:51.000And the sound of it alone, I swear to God, it just gives me a smile.
00:51:55.000It makes me smile when I hit the gas and I shift the gears just to hear that engine roar.
00:52:00.000I think for men, I don't think anyone has ever fully documented it, but I think there's a physiological thing that happens when you hear a strong engine.
00:52:09.000I think there's something happening to your body.
00:52:50.000It's called the Audi R8 and they have a V8 version, a V10 version.
00:52:54.000And actually a lot of people think that the V10 doesn't handle as well because it's got a bigger engine and there's a little bit more rear weight biased.
00:53:01.000Yeah, the engine in the V8 is smaller engine and a lot of people actually enjoy that car more.
00:53:06.000But they started to put superchargers on them.
00:53:09.000So they jack it up to like 560 horsepower and they're insane!
00:53:30.000Like a Shelby GT500. They have a new one that's out that's 660 horsepower.
00:53:36.000It's a fucking ridiculous thing to own.
00:53:38.000Nobody should be able to just go into a store, and without proving that you know how to drive a goddamn race car, get a car stock off the shelf with a 660 plus horsepower engine.
00:54:50.000400 horsepower in the aluminum car with all-wheel drive, but rear-wheel drive characteristics because it only ever gives 30% of the power to the real wheels.
00:54:59.000So it just helps you in corners and shit like that.
00:55:01.000You put that thing in sport and then put that shock thing on, it's crazy.
00:57:00.000And then I start getting real jittery like the helicopter's going to see me or something.
00:57:04.000I'm going to turn into like a high speed pursuit on the news and so I back down.
00:57:08.000Well those days are on their way out, man.
00:57:10.000With the advent of drones, you're not going to be able to get away with that shit.
00:57:14.000They'll have drones in the night sky, monitoring people's speed.
00:57:16.000Here we go, you got your own video doing 160. Yeah, you won't be able to fuck with it.
00:57:22.000I mean, there's no way they're not going to have that lockdown.
00:57:26.000If there really are going to be 30,000 drones in the sky in 10 years, that's what they said, surveillance drones, these motherfuckers, they're going to cut back on all the fun.
00:58:39.000Anyway, what it is is they've figured out a way to take all surveillance cameras from all over the country.
00:58:46.000And work them through a centralized database where they literally store all of the information, like every movement that's happened in cities and in areas.
00:58:56.000They've got a complete massive database on everything that everyone's ever done for the last few years.
00:59:03.000They're starting to do it in these areas and they're putting it in a centralized database without letting anybody know.
01:00:08.000Oh, you little asshole, drinking out of the toilet again.
01:00:10.000I heard there was a study recently where they put these cameras on cats, and they found out that cats murder way more than they originally thought.
01:00:20.000These cats just did nothing but murder animals, squirrels, birds, insects, and they go on killing sprees every time they go out of the house.
01:01:39.000There's all kinds of old, like, you know, creepy tales about cats that used to, like, sit on the chest of children and suck their breath out.
01:01:47.000They lie on babies because they're warm.
01:01:50.000And when they lie on babies, they smother them.
01:03:58.000They're just discovering it within the last few years.
01:04:01.000And one of the things that they're discovering is that it leads to a disproportionate amount of motorcycle victims.
01:04:07.000So they think it affects your judgment.
01:04:09.000And it also, they said there's a lot of soccer teams, like really successful soccer teams, come from countries where they test high With high levels of toxoplasma because it makes you reckless.
01:06:51.000Somebody could just spit on you or transfer a fluid or breathe on you and all of a sudden now there are agents at work within your body to make you behave differently so as to the killing of you by that person would be made much easier.
01:12:13.000I love people because I know that's what I do.
01:12:15.000I love people that can figure things out or that get through adversity or that go over a hump or that get thrown a curveball and they figure out how to hit it next time.
01:20:21.000I got no way of knowing, got no way of telling Ain't nobody on my side and I got none I'm selling Got the clothes on my back, got the sound that I'm singing Got the love in my heart and the drama I'm bringing And holding on with all I got I see the world keep turning, fires keep burning it down We're out, holding on with all we got
01:20:51.000They're trying to poison all the water Make porn stars from daughters in town Amen.
01:20:59.000You better wake up or stop messing around.
01:21:05.000And quit pretending like the motherfucking walls ain't tumbling down.
01:21:51.000You have this unique blend of having had all these life experiences and health problems and being fucked over and being up and down and Man, it just comes out in your music.
01:23:36.000Just the edges have been worn off, man, by this point.
01:23:39.000In my 20s, I was a Just raging asshole.
01:23:42.000Well, I remember meeting you, you know, whatever many years ago it was, and I was, right away, you seemed like just a normal dude, you know, and it's a weird thing when you listen to someone's music, and you've known them for so many years, like, I knew who you were when I was barely getting by, you know, and you were playing in my car.
01:24:01.000I was driving around, jump up, jump up, get down!
01:24:04.000You're in my car and shit when I was in my mad struggle period.
01:24:08.000Yeah, we're about to actually release a 20th anniversary.
01:30:45.000It's off my last album, which actually I started this thing last week and I might have approached it wrong because I was kind of angry when I did.
01:30:54.000Sony ATV Music Group or something on Twitter.
01:32:37.000When I saw imagery of kids in Palestine throwing rocks at Israeli armored cars, I explored the mentality of the oppressed and how far you will let yourself be oppressed.
01:32:54.000I've started to come to the conclusion the song's about a lot more than just that, though.
01:32:58.000It's about what could be going on here soon.
01:34:41.000Don't need nothing but stones in my hand Stone in my hand Stone in my hand Don't need nothing but stones in my hand Build your fighter jets You drop your bombs.
01:37:39.000I was learned how to strum the guitar.
01:37:45.000But like to treat this hand like a drummer, like that's the down, that's the up, that's the kick and the snare kind of way my mind works, you know?
01:37:52.000Yeah, when you were in the middle of the, I don't know any musical turns, but when you were really going at it, man, it was like, it was both a drum and it was almost like there was a beat to it as well as, you know, hearing the actual sound of the chords.
01:39:39.000Turn off the parking lights Down by the river's edge This is my darkest night, girl Swimming in my head Happens all the time I blow it every time People change with time.
01:40:19.000I'll be anyone for Out on the interstate I play my radio And I confess to all my sins
01:40:50.000Been driving seven hours Still got three to go It always ends where it begins You got your broken wings I got my sewn up hard Girl,
01:41:16.000all these fucked up things They keep us torn apart It happens all the time I blow it every time People change with time Call me anytime, girl.
01:43:22.000Other than a reference to him, it's not that much about him, but except for the feeling, it creates things for me.
01:43:29.000It's just about fucking everything up every day.
01:43:35.000When you write, do you try to do that a lot?
01:43:38.000Do you write things that are not necessarily about what you're singing?
01:43:44.000Yeah, a lot of times you don't want to, like, you know, I mean, you'll lay out, I'm sure it's the same even within comedy writing, you'll lay out a certain amount of yourself within something and, you know, use it in context to make it something else.
01:44:38.000Yeah, well, that's one of the things about cannabis.
01:44:41.000Cannabis and the connection with music.
01:44:43.000You really, you know, I hate being that person.
01:44:46.000They go, dude, you gotta try it, you gotta try it.
01:44:48.000But if it wasn't for weed, I think I would be missing out on a lot of the levels of enjoyment that are possible.
01:44:55.000Because there's some levels of enjoyment when you're high, and one of them is listening to the music.
01:45:00.000When you're high and you listen to, like, Comfortably Numb, you know, you hit some old-school Pink Floyd when you're high, and you hear all the subtle nuances to the song that you never recognized before, and it's just, it overcomes you in a wave.
01:45:14.000It's what I like to refer to as the highest common denominator.
01:45:18.000It's like when we all hit that intelligent moment.
01:45:21.000There's a lot of music that caters straightly to bass, nature, and bass.
01:45:27.000Then there's that music that really inspires to do what we're talking about, like find that emotion, find that thing, and really accurately describe it somehow, where the next person says, fuck, me too.
01:45:42.000How did you know how to say that about me?
01:45:45.000When you do that in a song, or a joke, half the reason the real belly laughs come from motherfuckers who are like, I know exactly what he's talking about, and he's so fucking right about it.
01:45:56.000When you hit some certain lyrics and people just go, oh, that's my fucking song.
01:49:34.000And one of them, they're trying to say Bigfoot is possibly some kind of hybrid alien creature.
01:49:42.000Is it possible that Bigfoot maybe an alien?
01:49:44.000And that he's traveling interdimensionally, and that's why we're never catching him, because he's moving through portals of time and space that we can't possibly understand.
01:49:55.000The guy who, like, said he perpetrated the whole Bigfoot thing and, like, they found all these, like, casts and things he made to make foots and what?
01:50:21.000But if there's not one guy, if there have been hoaxes, there have been hoaxes all over the fucking country and all over the Pacific Northwest.
01:50:29.000There's a lot of shit in the Pacific Northwest where it's like Monkey Canyon, Ape Creek, Ape Bluffs.
01:51:04.000And if they do catch a flick, it's like fucking...
01:51:07.000I just saw something on Yahoo or something just in the last couple days about a guy who says he caught the best picture ever of the Loch Ness Monster.
01:53:06.000Because he's in some kind of bullying campaign, so he's not allowed to do any adult Themed podcast until because it's like it for the kids and stuff so he's in a weird contract.
01:53:15.000What is bullying you have to do with sex?
01:53:52.000The first two seasons, I kick off really hard, and then they go off into this other tangent where they almost lost me at that time, where they went off to a whole different part of the city and did a whole new story.
01:54:02.000It felt like they were scrapping the whole earlier shit, but...
01:54:05.000It all kind of comes around into a circle.
01:54:08.000And it was one of the best endings I think I've ever seen.
01:56:05.000That train just keeps a rolling On down the sand and tone And I was just a baby Like all those edits and fades Or like the style the show would use, you know what I mean?
02:00:25.000Grandma's hand Clapped in church on Sunday morning.
02:00:30.000Grandma's hand Played the tambourine so well.
02:00:36.000Grandma's hand Used to issue an old warning She sang
02:00:42.000Billy, don't you run so fast Might fall on a piece of glass Might be snakes down in that grass Grandma's hand Grandma's hand Soothe the local unwed mother Grandma's hand Used to ache sometimes and swell Grandma's hand Used to lift her face and tell her she said Baby
02:01:13.000grandma understands That you really love that man Put yourself in Jesus' hands Grandma Grandma's hand used to give me a piece of candy.
02:01:31.000Grandma's hand picked me up each time I fell.
02:01:36.000Grandma's hand used to really come in handy.
02:01:40.000She'd say, Matty, don't you whoop that boy.
02:02:50.000I got to re-watch it, but I remember, because I watched it on the bus where you get, you know, I watch it for a little while, I watch it for a little while, but it's like, you know, his daughter's in the business.
02:02:58.000I think he's just, I mean, his songs, I'm sure his catalog makes a lot of money, man.
02:03:27.000It's got a song about a Vietnam veteran called I Can't Write Left-Handed by the guy who lost his right arm in the war and he can't write left-handed.
02:05:11.000My father was big on Neil Young, so it's one of the things that I... When you're young and you hear this music and you kind of just reject it on general principle because it's your parents' music.
02:08:30.000I always associate, one of the reasons why I like classic rock so much is like, that's what I associate with that Leonard Skinner song when we're all at a barbecue.
02:10:06.000You're never getting away from Jimi Hendrix.
02:10:08.000If there's a guitar, if someone's talking about guitar, If you want to use a sample, one of my favorite songs ever is someone made a mashup of 99 Problems with Voodoo Child.
02:10:20.000It's hard to fuck with because you got Jay-Z singing 99 Problems, which is a great song, and then you got Jimi Hendrix playing the Voodoo Child soundtrack over it.
02:10:32.000But isn't it crazy that certain dudes, like, there's certain parts of society where if you have an immense amount of success and then die young, you're just in the vernacular forever.
02:10:44.000Also, not just the success those people have had, I mean, like, there was an impact.
02:10:52.000Like, nothing sounded like Jimi Hendrix before Jimi Hendrix.
02:10:56.000I mean, even the guys at the time, like, Clapton and And Keith Richards and all these dudes were like, jaw dropped, like, what the f- this dude's ruining it for everybody.
02:11:08.000Janis Joplin, you know, nobody had seen a white girl sing with that kind of just anguish.
02:11:14.000You know, there was- at that moment, a lot of- That era is like basically nothing, the only thing new in the last 30 years, truly new in music, was hip-hop.
02:11:57.000In their day, to have more than 8 things on separate...
02:12:02.000The quality of recording depends a lot of times on how much you can separate the individual instruments and deal with their balance and the EQs of them and getting each individual sounding sharp and having what we call a shelf.
02:12:16.000Which means all sounds are audible, but they all occupy different spaces.
02:12:21.000Each instrument is equal and you feel the weight the way they should, but they have different shelves.
02:12:26.000So if you looked at it on the graph, there would be eight separate columns.
02:12:28.000The things that when you were high, all of a sudden that you thought were all together that you can find the separation in, that's from multi-track recording and fucking being able to Otherwise, you had to do everything.
02:12:41.000And the Beatles made records that had orchestrations in the middle of them.
02:12:47.000So they were bouncing seven tracks down to one track.
02:12:51.000So they were mixing while they were doing other things.
02:12:54.000It's bananas when you think about what they pulled off making records with the technology that was available to them.
02:13:03.000Now it would almost be like, oh, that's easy stuff.
02:14:02.000I wouldn't recommend it to somebody at my stage of life to do it, but when I did it, it benefited me.
02:14:09.000Good trips, bad trips, all that shit, like, made my mind a stronger thing, you know?
02:14:14.000I also have homies that are one of the, you know, there was a gang of us and there's also a couple of them that are still kind of fucked up.
02:14:55.000That basically the actual L25 drug that you take is gone by the time you're getting hallucinations.
02:15:01.000It's like it triggers something in your mind like a gland or something in your mind that activates basically all the electrical outlets of your mind instead of being shut down opens it all up.
02:15:14.000So basically you ain't hallucinating nothing that's not already in your brain.
02:15:22.000I could be wrong, but I took a lot of it when I was young.
02:15:26.000I was also told once, it's in comparison to supposedly, and again, if this is ignorance that I'm spouting, I heard it somewhere else and I'm repeating it.
02:15:36.000I am ignorant for saying it, but I usually have a pretty good sense for what makes sense and what can be true.
02:15:43.000I've heard of swamis that cut the bottom of their tongues so they can swallow their tongues.
02:15:47.000The reason supposedly for that is there's Apparently some gland behind this area inside your passage where they can reach up with their tongue supposedly and touch it.
02:17:25.000It's like that episode of the Twilight Zone where the guy bets him he can't talk for a year or something, and then he comes in and is like, I have to renege on the bad mannequin, and the guy cut his tongue out.
02:20:15.000When you see Justin Timberlake doing movies, and you see a lot of rappers have done movies, do you ever think about doing any acting or any other kind of stuff?
02:26:54.000I'm just selling you that when you hear Facebook 4,000 times on every 24-hour news network, you get curious about it, and people started looking and probably wanted to see the fucking Disturbed Fuckers page.
02:27:55.000But one of my homies went and he came home to the studio and had to grab something out of his email or something and he fired up America AOL. I was like...
02:28:42.000Do you remember when the dude would do something like kill somebody or something and you could go to his MySpace page?
02:28:48.000Exactly my point about the like that's what like that Virginia Tech shit did for fuck because it was all college and all they talked about I remember on the news was like the guy wrote his whole like this whole thing on his Facebook page and Facebook page and the logo was up and that's when it went big man I'm telling you.
02:30:22.000I bet what happens is, first of all, I block them after I retweet them.
02:30:25.000And then second of all, when you get the negativity back thrown at you by all these people who think you're an asshole for saying something stupid, Then you realize what it's like.
02:30:35.000And you're like, what the fuck am I doing causing problems in my life for no reason?
02:30:38.000See, I did that to the Sony people, and I felt bad because some people were like, why isn't his record online, dickbags?
02:31:09.000If you're in the music industry, in my opinion, And this goes for anybody working for me that falls under this category, gets the same description.
02:31:18.000If you're in the music industry and you don't make music, produce music, record music, or somehow put your hands on music, you're a leech and a parasite of cat proportions.
02:31:48.000And not only are you a parasite, but if you're in the music business and you don't make music, then you're living off another organism.
02:31:57.000So I'm not being even a dick when I call you a parasite.
02:32:00.000But I'm saying what makes you the worst kind of parasite is you're the only parasite that's figured out how to eat before the host organism.
02:35:31.000Before the internet, I guarantee you, there's no record I would have ever made that wouldn't have moved at least a couple hundred thousand units.
02:35:39.000Now, on this last record, I think I've moved about 50,000.
02:38:28.000They're doing MMA? Oh yeah, they'll put on, they go to like, you know, all these different small organizations that very few people have ever heard of, and they'll put on those fights, and they'll put on all the best kickboxing too.
02:38:40.000It's real hard to get good kickboxing in America.
02:38:42.000It's only that AXS TV. Nobody else even shows it.
02:38:46.000You can't see like the high-level Muay Thai and high-level kickboxing, like K1 style.
02:38:53.000Yeah, they always show the dream shows and all that.
02:38:55.000That is the one thing when I always tell people, if there's one untapped market in the sports entertainment world, it's high-level kickboxing.
02:39:03.000Somebody has never capitalized on that.
02:39:05.000While boxers are making fucking millions of dollars, MMA fighters are making millions of dollars, these kickboxers are still languishing.
02:39:13.000And these motherfuckers are so exciting.
02:39:16.000Like real high-level Muay Thai kickboxing.
02:39:19.000It has not been exposed to the masses.
02:39:22.000People don't realize how goddamn exciting it is.
02:39:24.000Dudes kicking each other in the fucking legs and the head and flying elbows and knees and shit.
02:39:34.000It just hasn't been exposed to America correctly.
02:39:37.000It's a huge money maker just waiting to happen of UFC proportions.
02:39:42.000If somebody, some rich dude, some investment type character had the balls to put together some really high level kickboxing and start showing that shit in America, they would make mad loot.
02:39:53.000Because one of the things that everybody loves about the UFC is that anything can happen, but the other thing they love is knockouts.
02:40:31.000Which is actually kind of the worst way to fight.
02:40:34.000It's actually more dangerous to be allowed to recover.
02:40:37.000It's better for the referee to come over and save you, have to do punches you one or two more times, than you to sort of get your wits back and then get properly K the fuck owed.
02:40:46.000But in K1 kickboxing and in Muay Thai, that's all the stand-up fighting.
02:43:17.000I'm going to mentally telepathically sing to you.
02:43:21.000Well, that's why I think the idea of simulation theory is actually plausible.
02:43:27.000That simulation theory is like real, legit scientists have offered up the possibility that if someday someone created an artificial reality, someday someone created something that was controlled, it was something generated by a computer, but it was undetectable from reality.
02:43:54.000If the advent of technology and technological innovation keeps moving in the same direction, everything gets better.
02:44:00.000So if you look from now to a thousand years from now or a thousand years ago, you look at what we're capable of now and extrapolate what a thousand years from now we're going to be capable of, Artificial reality is a given.
02:44:45.000Maybe this is why our life is so crazy.
02:44:49.000Maybe this is why life is so chaotic and ridiculous.
02:44:52.000And it would seem like the type of being with the brain to build something like New York City would have everything else completely wrapped up too.
02:45:01.000I mean it takes an amazing amount of innovation, thinking, computation, And construction and just amazing amount of stick-to-itiveness to build something like a New York City.
02:45:14.000You would think an organism that can do that, well, they got everything wired.
02:46:04.000The real problem is it's starting to be substantiated with science.
02:46:07.000When they're doing, you know, these string theories guys and these quantum physicist guys, where they're doing...
02:46:15.000Technical computations, when they're trying to figure out the nature of the actual matter itself, one of the things they're finding is they're finding that there's mathematical programs to it all.
02:46:28.000Things in this life follow mathematical computations.
02:46:34.000The Fibonacci sequence is like the way a person's face looks, the way a tree grows branches, the way a sunflower seed.
02:46:41.000It's all like mathematics, inescapable mathematics.
02:46:44.000And then they're finding more code in quantum theory.
02:46:50.000They're finding the smaller they're getting as far as the smaller things they're looking at in the universe, they're finding mathematical algorithms that you could clearly track.
02:47:01.000Like, that they've measured from the 1940s.
02:47:45.000It's one of the biggest injustices, that people that are interested in thinking and creating don't have one of these things.
02:47:51.000Because if you're in the simulated reality, you're probably already laying in some sort of liquid, so you're bringing yourself back almost to your essence if you're doing that.
02:48:01.000Or nothing is real and your consciousness has been downloaded into some sort of a...
02:48:21.000What if it's an actual life form that's independent of us, but we have this weird symbiotic relationship with it where where are the method that it's evolving through?
02:48:29.000And it's going from being a fucking toaster...
02:48:32.000Dude, do you have a Star Trek shirt on or something?
02:50:21.000It's been a long time since I was faithful.
02:50:27.000It's been a long time since I was grateful It's been a long time since I could look you in the eye It's been a long time since I was grateful She's a mother with a daughter, sitting by the water, cause it's better for her baby to breathe.
02:50:50.000She got a man that's in prison, cause he didn't moan or listen, now he's sitting waiting on a reprieve.
02:50:56.000She loves a little baby, but she get a little crazy, cause it's harder than she ever conceived.
02:51:02.000She left her on her own, but she's doing it alone, cause she loves him like you wouldn't believe.
02:51:08.000It's been a long time since I was faithful.
02:51:13.000It's been a long time since I was grateful It's been a long time since I could look you in the eye It's been a long time since I was grateful He's a friend
02:51:49.000Gets a lot of drama when he go to see his mama, cause he curses like a son of a gun.
02:51:55.000He's begging to his lady, let him see his baby, he swear she's the only one.
02:52:00.000He's got a heart full of sorrow, living for tomorrow, and sorry for the damage he's done.
02:52:06.000It's been a long time since I was faithful.
02:52:12.000It's been a long time since I was grateful.
02:52:17.000It's been a long time since I could look you in the eye It's been a long time since I was grateful It's been a long time since I was faithful It's been a long time since I was grateful It's been a long time since I could look you in the eye It's
02:52:47.000been a long time since I was grateful Grateful Dude, thank you very much, man.
