In this episode of the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast, the boys are joined by special guest Mac Danzig to talk about his new podcast, "Mac Danzig MMA" hosted by Gray Maynard and Luke Rockhold. They also talk about the recent legalization of marijuana in Vermont, and why it's a good thing it's not legal in the United States. Also, the guys talk about their favorite vegan protein powder, AlphaBrain, and how it's better than most other vegan protein powders on the planet. They also get into a heated debate about whether or not you should be allowed to eat poppy seed bagels. And, of course, they answer your burning questions! Logo by Courtney DeKorte.

00:04:55.000In fact, you can make hemp boards to build houses, and you can make hemp parts to build fucking cars, and it's far stronger than steel, and it's lighter in weight.
00:05:09.000You know how Corvettes are made out of fiberglass?
00:06:23.000It's a natural supplement that you can take that's extracted from ants and a bunch of fucking other natural shit that just gives you these crazy boners.
00:10:19.000O-N-N-I-T. We also have Shroom Tech Sport, which I should have taken with me on my crazy hunt in Montana because I could have used it going up those hills.
00:10:26.000Shroom Tech Sport is fucking fantastic if you're involved in anything that involves endurance.
00:10:33.000I do it before I have my kettlebell workouts or anything like that.
00:10:36.000Shroom Tech is an incredible supplement made from the cordyceps mushroom, and it's just shown to aid in your body's optimization of oxygen.
00:10:45.000It gives you a real legitimate endurance boost.
00:10:49.000And it's also great for people that go into high-altitude places.
00:10:53.000It helps you to adapt to the altitude quicker.
00:10:57.000If you go from sea level up to 8,500, 9,000 feet, sometimes people can get sick.
00:11:02.000We've had many people tell us that they took ShroomTech for this very reason and that it really helped them and minimized their problems in shifting to the higher altitude.
00:11:13.000Shroom Tech, we also have New Mood, which is a 5-HTP and L-tryptophan supplement.
00:11:18.000And it's called New Mood because it literally enhances your mood.
00:11:20.000It's all the building blocks for serotonin, including L-tryptophan, which converts to 5-HTP, and 5-HTP converts to serotonin.
00:11:29.000So there's a bit of a time-released factor in there as well.
00:11:32.000And it's a really excellent supplement.
00:11:34.000And one that I suggest, I mean, I think everybody could be a little happier.
00:11:38.000Everybody could use a little bit more serotonin in your life and make you a nicer fucking person.
00:11:43.000So New Mood is, again, one of my favorite supplements.
00:11:46.000If you use the code name ROGAN, you'll save 10% off any and all supplements from Onnit.
00:11:51.000The other stuff like the blenders and the kettlebells, we sell that as cheap as we possibly can.
00:11:56.000And we will continue to sell you the best shit as cheap as possible.
00:12:00.000And when you order pills, if you order any of the vitamins or supplements, your first 30 days, or first 30 pills rather, I fuck that up every time.
00:12:08.000It's like you say 30 and you have to say days.
00:12:11.000It's like for whatever reason, we're locked into this idea.
00:12:14.000First 30 pills when you order one of these fucking things right in front of my hand.
00:13:02.000I did not listen, but he's one of my favorite guests ever that we have on this podcast.
00:13:06.000He's such a smart dude and cool and righteous, and he's just legit all around.
00:13:12.000I really love that dude, and I'm so happy that he's a part of the Death Squad Podcast Network.
00:13:17.000My new t-shirts at Hire-Primate.com are in, so go and check that out.
00:13:23.000We have three new designs, including two with Duncan Trussell from the Tabernacle, the poster from the Tabernacle that Mike Maxwell did, and the poster from Chicago.
00:13:34.000The Chicago Theater, also with Duncan and Joey Diaz.
00:13:37.000And the Tabernacle was the one where I filmed my last special, and that, yeah, that is coming out, I swear to God.
00:13:44.000We were just waiting for the website to get designed.
00:13:59.000Strap yourself in, you dirty, dirty bitches.
00:14:03.000We're fixing to get the party started.
00:14:15.000San Francisco, Brian Redband, Greg Fitzsimmons, and I are at the Knob Hill Masonic Auditorium.
00:14:25.000And I've gotten more than one email from really dumb people who think that because I am playing at the Masonic Auditorium, it just proves that I am a New World Order shill.
00:15:18.000And the whole thing's based on building the Temple of Solomon, which is where you house the Ark of the Covenant.
00:15:24.000It's all symbolic, of course, but the new Temple of Solomon that they're trying to build, according to the conspiracy theorists, is society.
00:15:32.000Like, society is the new Temple of Solomon, and part of that was getting the United States Revolution to happen, because they helped fund that.
00:15:39.000And also, fucking D.C., the street layout of D.C. is all Masonic symbols, and that goddamn obelisk popping up out of the middle of fucking D.C., that weird thing, and it's all over our fucking money.
00:15:51.000So yeah, Joe, we are worried about you.
00:17:25.000But yeah, that's why they like that, because what they're trying to do is to sort of articulate the primary, the very first way that the universe forms, which is through geometry or through a cascade of specific physical laws that are based on math.
00:18:30.000I've heard there's many different levels of the thing, and I imagine that a lot of Masons are probably in politics, and when you're in a fraternity and you're in politics, you're probably going to...
00:19:27.000Joe Rogan has publicly admitted on his show that he is a mason!
00:19:33.000He has Duncan Trussell on who talks about how wonderful it is to be a Mason and spreading propaganda and disinformation about Masons being about geometry.
00:20:59.000And dress in a certain way and take a psychedelic and trip out and have a kind of transcendent experience that comes through the music.
00:21:06.000But it used to be like there's more formal versions of that idea, which is like you take a psychedelic and then you do a series of like intonations or whatever the fuck it is, depending on what religion or cult you're in.
00:21:17.000And that creates a kind of transcendent connective experience, which I think is fucking awesome.
00:21:23.000And it's fun to just watch, regardless of whether or not you believe in what that religion or ritual is trying to invoke, it's just cool to watch that form of dance and movement happen.
00:21:34.000It's a funny way of putting it, because most people would never think of ceremony that way.
00:21:39.000And I think what a lot of these people that are freaking out about Masons and all this...
00:21:43.000I think people are nervous about any group that moves in secrecy.
00:22:45.000The very word secrecy is repugnant in a free and open society.
00:22:50.000And we are, as a people, inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths, and to secret proceedings.
00:23:00.000We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it.
00:23:13.000Even today, There is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions.
00:23:22.000Even today, there is little value in ensuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it.
00:23:31.000And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning To the very limits of official censorship and concealment.
00:23:46.000That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it's in my control.
00:23:51.000And no official of my administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes,
00:24:06.000or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know.
00:24:13.000For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covet means for expanding its sphere of influence, on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections,
00:24:31.000on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day.
00:24:39.000It is a system which has conscripted Vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic,
00:26:18.000Yeah, I think he was sort of experiencing the growth of the CIA. The CIA was starting to turn into this monster that they couldn't control anymore.
00:26:30.000It was starting to expand and stretch out and doing that thing that big organizations do where they try to keep themselves alive by making up shit.
00:26:39.000You know, that thing where like they're not necessary anymore but it doesn't matter.
00:26:57.000There's a whole CIA thing that doesn't have to report to anybody, can basically do whatever the fuck it wants, changes laws.
00:27:03.000That's the real government now, and that's just like exactly what our founding fathers were trying to avoid.
00:27:09.000There's a great book called Acid Dreams that I'm reading which is about the CIA and how they were the ones who got LSD and they're the ones who...
00:27:18.000The CIA basically started the psychedelic revolution of the 60s or was part of the start of that because they started doing LSD tests on college kids.
00:27:27.000And so they're the ones who got it into our society and it's a fascinating read because LSD, whenever it gets into whatever group it gets into, It's such a potent chemical, it starts transforming the group and changing the way the group thinks.
00:27:42.000So a lot of people in the CIA who are taking LSD, because that was part of the deal, is they would dose their agents to get them ready for the eventuality of potentially being given a truth serum or some kind of psychedelic brew.
00:27:55.000So you would go to work as an agent and all of a sudden just start fucking tripping, because they dosed your drink.
00:28:01.000You know who was a part of the Harvard LSD experiments?
00:28:26.000A hardcore psychedelic experience on Sandoz LSD straight from fucking Albert Hoffman's sneaker just juiced out of his socks into vials and sent to the CIA. Imagine having that trip,
00:28:44.000You work in one of the most covert organizations on earth with people who are trained to kill and poison and take cyanide pills if they have to.
00:30:07.000This shit got shut down because it's so unethical.
00:30:09.000But where it gets weird, and we talked about this on the phone, is in Guantanamo Bay...
00:30:15.000They've been giving people six times the appropriate dose of larium, which is this medication that you give people for malaria that has negative psychoactive effects.
00:30:24.000Specifically, it gives people amnesia.
00:30:27.000My friend just fucking wrote a book on getting amnesia in India.
00:30:32.000He wrote a book called The Answer to the Riddle is Me.
00:30:35.000His name's David McClain, but he went to India, took larium, Which is a drug that is illegal in some countries.
00:30:43.000It's a drug that came from a partnership between, what's that big pharmaceutical company, Hoffman, De La Roche, or whatever the fuck the name is, and the military made this shit to fight larium, and larium sits in your liver.
00:30:57.000But sometimes it crosses the blood-brain barrier, and when that happens, it mouth-fucks your brain.
00:31:06.000So you start having these shitty fucking dreams, and then if it really goes wrong, you can have what happened to my friend, which is complete and absolute amnesia.
00:31:17.000No memory of who you are, no memory of where you are, how you got there, who your family is, anything.
00:31:25.000This happened to him in a fucking train station in India, where he said that they would have English, which he could understand on the TVs, and then it would switch to Hindi, it would switch to other languages, and he thought when it switched to other languages, he was hallucinating, and the English was warping and turning into something else.
00:31:44.000He didn't even know that these were other languages.
00:32:35.000Crazy shit, but the really crazy shit is they're giving these motherfuckers in Guantanamo Bay six times the dose of larium that you're supposed to be getting, and there is no malaria in Cuba.
00:32:54.000You just get these bastards, scoop them up from Afghanistan, blindfold them, fly them to fucking Cuba, blast them with larium until they have no idea who they are, and they'll fucking tell you anything, man.
00:33:04.000Isn't it incredible what they're allowed to do legally, like with this Bradley Manning guy, the guy who got this WikiLeaks situation, he's the one, the soldier that released all the documents.
00:33:14.000They've had this guy in solitary confinement for years now.
00:34:05.000And it is that funny thing where people have this idea.
00:34:08.000They're like, yeah, you know, the United States, we've done some stuff that maybe isn't the greatest thing ever.
00:34:14.000We've done it to protect our citizens from terror.
00:34:16.000Or the idea that that shit that we did with injecting people with syphilis or all the other crazy shit that we've done, the idea that at some point, maybe in the 80s, everyone in the government was like, let's stop being assholes!
00:34:50.000That's the stuff you gotta wonder about, man.
00:34:52.000Because Bradley Manning, that's a show pony.
00:34:55.000Yeah, when you see FEMA pumping 500,000 coffins into Texas, and they have these camps set up, they have these gigantic camps set up where you're like, what is going on in here?
00:35:06.000There's high fences and these dormitories, and there's armored fucking towers and shit, and you're like, wait a minute.
00:35:14.000What are these rifle towers doing here?
00:35:45.000All this shit that's going on right now in New York with this Hurricane Sandy, to me, it's making me think of the real possibility that I never really considered of society falling apart.
00:35:58.000Like, it really fucking could fall apart.
00:36:21.000I heard we have 100 years of accurate temperature measures.
00:36:26.000I just heard this because they were talking about it on NPR. But like 100 years and after that you have to start going into ice core samples and tree rings and stuff to figure it out.
00:36:34.000And then you can only figure out like late frosts and you get like a limited amount of information.
00:37:10.000But the hockey stick, the handle of the hockey stick, represents basic temperature for hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years.
00:37:18.000And then where we're at right now is this insane acceleration in temperature, which people call global warming.
00:37:25.000And so some people say, well, the winters are colder, but...
00:37:29.000The global warming people are climate change.
00:37:31.000That's something I think the scientists who came out with this research, they feel like they shouldn't have called it global warming because it's a confusing term and when shit isn't warm, people are like, you're wrong.
00:38:23.000And I think there is a huge possibility that people are just going to have to get used to moving away from the fucking oceans or redesigning homes to handle that shit.
00:38:34.000While I was in Montana, we were in a place called the Badlands, and we were going down the Missouri River.
00:38:39.000We stayed and camped mostly in this place that used to be the Great Western Inland Sea, and it was a warm water ocean.
00:38:47.000So the floor of this area where we were hiking was all mud.
00:38:52.000It was like a silt, because it was the bottom of the fucking ocean at one point in time, man.
00:38:57.000And everywhere you go, as you're walking up these hills, as the ground breaks away, you find fossilized seashells.
00:39:05.000And they could be millions of years old.
00:41:06.000He's like 24. I'm like, how the fuck do you know?
00:41:10.000There's dudes out there that are studying ice samples and core samples and trying to figure out what's going on with the magnetosphere.
00:41:18.000This 24-year-old kid's like, it's a natural cycle.
00:41:21.000Just parroting this right-wing talk radio version of what's going on.
00:41:25.000I think it changes, but I also think we have something to do with it.
00:41:29.000Well, the fundamentalists have always had a real fucking problem with nature.
00:41:36.000And so whenever people practice nature religion, like when Christianity was starting to spread, those were the people who were getting turned into fucking marshmallows.
00:41:46.000What's called pagan just meant country dweller.
00:41:49.000It's people who are familiar with the cycle of the moon, the equinoxes, the fucking solstices.
00:41:54.000It's people who are connected To the harvest, which is where food comes from, and the sun, which is what makes the food grow.
00:42:00.000So it's like really connected to the earth.
00:42:02.000And then Christianity came around with this fucking bearded, homophobic jock who...
00:42:23.000God, according to those people, and God certainly doesn't like people who are slurping back fucking psychedelic brews and having orgies in the forest to celebrate life.
00:42:38.000Anyway, the point is, there's always a war on between these fundamentalists who want to believe that the earth is some kind of endlessly renewable resource that you can just rip into and fuck up and bomb and do whatever you want to it, and people who are like, no, this is a living organism and it's infested with these scabies-like bomb-throwing super-advanced beings that are burrowing deep,
00:43:02.000deep into its hide and sucking out its blood to fill their- Yeah.
00:43:06.000We're feeding off the blood of the organism.
00:46:02.000Like my friend Johnny Pemberton, he's not so much, and we always get into arguments over this, because he's like, no, it's just going to fucking...
00:46:29.000And his version is also based on, it's sort of discounting the impact of the exponential growth of technology that eventually someone will come up with a way to convert it.
00:46:38.000I mean, they've got bacteria now that eats plastic.
00:46:58.000I think that if these scientists continue with their research, which they're trying to do, the guy at the University of Maryland, that theoretical physicist, if they can prove that we're inside a simulator, then just from understanding that,
00:47:16.000the kind of shit that you could theoretically do if this is a simulation that's running some kind of like...
00:48:31.000And it's like all of a sudden the world changed and went from sucky to awesome.
00:48:38.000And it's like he just reached some new level of the computer game and now the entire world that he's in, his world literally is a different world.
00:48:46.000Like someone who's unsuccessful, someone who's unfulfilled, someone who's trying to accomplish something but keeps meeting with failure, When that happens over a long period of time, you can develop a deep despair in the way you view the world.
00:49:02.000And that's where Ari was just a couple of years ago.
00:49:05.000And now, all of a sudden, he's in this super happy world.
00:49:09.000Everywhere he goes, people are happy to see him.
00:49:41.000Eternal burst of happening-ness and that you can shift yourself from different nodes of where you are now to more desirable nodes of the multiverse, to places that you want to be.
00:49:55.000You know, having a goal is a form of visualizing the specific node of the multiverse that you would like to be existing in and the contrast between that place and where we currently are.
00:50:11.000And it's like a grappling hook that you're throwing through infinity and it lands at this place that you can visualize and then you kind of pull yourself to that place.
00:50:21.000Are you talking about nodes over there?
00:50:43.000So anyway, so the idea is like these fucking movements through the multiverse as you move towards what you want to become...
00:50:52.000I feel like a symptom that you're moving towards this new universe that's possible for everyone is that synchronicities start happening.
00:51:00.000In the same way that when you're in a boat, you can see ripples in the water.
00:51:04.000When you begin to really focus and move towards a place that you want to be, Regardless of whatever the fuck that place is, if you really start working and going in that direction, that's when the juju starts happening.
00:52:16.000I think it's a massive mystery to all involved.
00:52:18.000I think the government understands that they have a certain amount of power and they don't want to let it go, which is what typically all corrupt people do once they get into a position of control.
00:52:27.000It takes a massive Amount of control over your ego, to be in a position of power and still be moral and ethical and kind and loving, to be in a position of ultimate control, like if you were in the CIA or you ran the NSA or something like that, to be there and have compassion for all of brotherhood and all of mankind,
00:52:57.000If it's possible for any one person to be moral and ethical and loving and kind and still be a powerful person, still be a strong and accomplished person, it is possible to be that.
00:53:09.000So it's possible to run a government that's like that, too.
00:53:13.000It's just they have to understand what a massive position they're in instead of thinking, well, this is what makes life easier.
00:53:36.000And I think that even thinking along those lines helps to change the world.
00:53:42.000It sounds totally hokey, but I think that having this conversation and knowing this conversation is going to easily reach a million people, several million people probably over the course of...
00:54:13.000They need to be stopped when they try to drunk drive.
00:54:15.000We need someone who can protect people from people that are bullies and people that fuck up and let their emotions take control of themselves.
00:54:43.000And also, but there's also the story of the government, the narrative of the government, the narrative of the news, the narrative of, like, media that's giving out information is inevitably a terrible, catastrophic narrative, and it will always be.
00:54:59.000Whenever you turn on the fucking news, it's a disaster.
00:55:02.000And I'm not just talking fucking Frankenstorn.
00:55:04.000I'm talking about, oh God, if you believe the news, then you believe all pitbulls are evil.
00:55:09.000You believe pitbulls have climbed out of some fucking volcano in hell and are just ravaging the world, chewing the faces off senior citizens.
00:55:16.000If you believe the fucking news, you would have believed that Africanized bees were coming, communists are attacking, al-Qaeda's marching into our streets to destroy us, Satanists are molesting our fucking kids.
00:55:28.000And that all politics is corrupt and evil and that the entire planet is on the verge of some ecological catastrophe.
00:55:35.000Well, the real issue is that there's too many people.
00:55:37.000There's 300 million people in this country alone.
00:55:40.000You cannot concentrate in one hour on the news without getting an insane amount of negative shit.
00:55:47.000Because you're dealing with individual acts over 300 million people.
00:55:52.000So that's where they are directing the consciousness and the attention of all of humanity into these basically anomalies.
00:56:03.000And if you look at the amount of people right now and the small amount of catastrophe that's happening compared to how many of us there are, it's a fucking miracle every day.
00:56:14.000We've talked about this a hundred times, that this is a way safer time than there's ever been in human history.
00:56:20.000But when you look at people trying to pass laws to take away rights, you would think that there's rioting in the streets and that the world is falling apart.
00:56:32.000Why is it that with this time where really things have never been better for the human race, why is there still this overwhelming need to crack down further and further on rights and liberties And control the population more and more,
00:56:55.000It's a trite thing to say, but it's you follow the money.
00:56:58.000And so I think that if you look and see that, you know, what is it, 48% of people in the prisons are drug-related offenses.
00:57:07.000If you see, like, the people who are making money off of these laws, I mean, God knows how much money the fucking TSA makes selling their crazy gear that they have, you know?
00:57:15.000That's a big fucking business, you know?
00:57:18.000So, I think it's just some people tend to profit off of the mass perception that we are existing in a sort of hell dimension.
00:57:27.000And there's people who've figured out a way to suckle at those black, satanic teats and extract money from it that they use for their own sense gratification, their own selfishness.
00:57:40.000Statistically speaking, if you look at the greater number of human beings in this country, 300 million people, how many of them are sucking the blood out of the earth?
00:58:01.000I think that the stuff that we kind of hit upon when we have these conversations...
00:58:08.000I think that that kind of stuff is if people's eyes start turning in the direction of the idea, as absurd and quixotic as it might sound, that you can, through a combination of discipline and visualization, create a positivity singularity in your life Where you,
00:58:28.000your very being and everything around you can like, almost like being in an elevator going up a few floors into paradise, that can happen.
00:58:36.000Where suddenly, you discard like a snake shedding its skin all the foulness of your, of the fear calcifications that have formed around your life in the form of bad relationships, shitty friends, a negative outlook.
00:58:51.000You can like drop all that and suddenly experience some version of rebirth.
00:58:55.000You know, this is why the Christian idea of being born again is a beautiful notion.
00:59:00.000That's a crazy idea to play around with.
00:59:02.000The idea that you can renew and rejuvenate your life completely if you just let go of fear and turn your fucking eyes away from the ghost story that these hell buzzards are spoon-feeding us so that they can sell droids and fucking forts.
00:59:19.000And if you start turning away from that and putting your focus on this idea, you're not always going to be perfect.
00:59:25.000I mean, you're not going to be suddenly in the Garden of Eden.
00:59:27.000The people who need to change their idea are the people that are actually doing that, not the people that are buying into it.
00:59:33.000It's way more important to have the people that are in control change their idea.
00:59:37.000So how the fuck do you get to the lizards?
00:59:39.000Well, to get to the fucking lizards, man, I think that what would have to happen would be an exponential shift in the That's where there's a possibility of technology aiding in the evolution because if there comes a technology that allows data to be distributed Probably
01:00:09.000wireless, probably point to point inside something that's installed in a person's body, like some sort of a chip that's installed in your body.
01:00:17.000And there'll be some sort of a wireless data network that's like an internet for human beings communicating with each other.
01:00:23.000And you're going to be able to access the ones and zeros that make up your own fucking personality, too.
01:00:28.000And people are going to have Yelp scores.
01:00:30.000Like you're going to meet someone, you'll see like two stars over their head.
01:00:33.000You're like, oh, look at this asshole.
01:01:21.000But I think it'll definitely be a way to look at a person and get a read on who they are before you ever start.
01:01:29.000Who you are is directly related to how other people feel about you when you're around.
01:01:37.000That is a big part of who you are as a human.
01:01:40.000It's how you interact with the rest of the species.
01:01:42.000Well, if there was a rating system, like a Yelp for people like that that you just saw when you met someone, people would try, oh, so much fucking harder to be nicer.
01:01:50.000They would try so much harder to fit in, and they would feel the repercussions of having that zero stars over their head.
01:01:56.000Man, when people are cunts, if you really consider why people are cunts, my theory on it is that they don't understand how important they are.
01:02:12.000When Hancock came on my podcast, he talked about ayahuasca and slurping ayahuasca and how one of the effects was that it made you experience the way you made people throughout your life feel.
01:02:24.000You know, like they talk about the life review and you go into the light and that shit.
01:02:42.000You feel the way you made the people around you feel.
01:02:44.000And I think that most people who are dicks, they don't think they're important enough to induce any kind of feeling in the people around them.
01:02:53.000They don't even think that they're important enough to make someone feel like shit, necessarily.
01:03:32.000Speaking of the node of the multiverse I want to exist in, I want to exist in this node of the multiverse where underneath all the ego calcifications and all the shitty lashing out thing, It's just a super sweet person that happens to have been just walked out of some briny swamp that consists of their family,
01:03:51.000their job, their life, their past, whatever it is.
01:03:54.000And they're still dripping with some of the oozing stagnation of being born in a bad incarnation.
01:03:59.000And the way that that's manifesting is the form of their shitty activities.
01:04:03.000But underneath that fucking thing, like a mask, is just a person who had to run through a stinky swamp and needs to shower off.
01:04:11.000Well, how are they mutually exclusive?
01:04:13.000Because that's exactly what I'm saying.
01:04:14.000The person who lashes out, they're angry.
01:04:17.000You know, the person who lashes out, they're trying to hurt people's feelings.
01:04:20.000It's not that they don't think they're worthwhile.
01:04:22.000It's that their ego is protecting them from their environment because they've grown up in a hostile place.
01:05:22.000So they're not really even thinking about whether they're worthwhile or not worthwhile.
01:05:26.000They're about ego, they're about reacting, they're about anger and frustration, and they're about selfishness.
01:05:32.000And when you live a life, especially when you have a job that just sucks the fucking blood out of your body, literally sucks the inspiration out of your soul, you want to be selfish when you're done.
01:05:44.000I think that's a big part of road rage, a big part of people yelling at you.
01:05:48.000You don't even want to give someone a few seconds to get in front of you with the car.
01:05:52.000You want to honk your horn and give them the finger because they made you wait a second or two.
01:07:03.000I can't remember the therapist's name, but they would take kids who were about to go to juvie or whatever from schools, and they would bring these kids to meet with him, because he's a therapist.
01:07:14.000And these kids have been meeting with therapists their whole lives, because they're fuck-ups.
01:07:21.000Their experience has always been one of being in offices where someone's trying to change them, turn them into something different, make them feel bad for the way they are, hammer some kind of ethical system into their brain, whatever.
01:07:34.000So this guy started doing this thing where he let the kids come into his office and he'd just sit there with them.
01:07:40.000There's like crayons, shit they can draw on.
01:07:43.000They would do their crazy shit, their little act-outs and freak-outs.
01:07:46.000But the whole time he was just trying to like be a person with them who wasn't judging them, who wasn't looking down on them and thinking of them as monsters.
01:07:55.000And so the effect of this shit that he did, it's a whole...
01:07:59.000I wish I could remember the name of it.
01:08:00.000It's a whole goddamn type of therapy, but the end result is these kids, their grades started improving.
01:08:07.000They started to become better people because they were in the presence of someone who was actively trying to, like, appreciate them as human beings.
01:08:18.000All agree that the number one problem with this society is the way human beings are raised.
01:08:23.000Human beings are raised by idiots, raised in a really uncomfortable way where they never truly develop character, never truly develop a philosophy or a point of view that aids them in life.
01:08:39.000How many people go through life perfectly programmed?
01:08:43.000How many people go through life with a really positive experience of growing up?
01:08:47.000That's the real issue, because then those people become adults, they raise their own children, and they try to correct as much as possible, but who knows how much of them has been fucked because of their childhood, and it continues on and on.
01:08:59.000What I was saying, even when we were talking about the people that run the world, that we need a philosophy for how human beings interact with each other, a code that's never broken, an agreement between all others.
01:09:11.000And that, to me, is the most important thing that the human race can establish.
01:09:17.000There is a way you can be successful while having all those things, and that's what people don't understand.
01:09:22.000There's a lot of people that think that, well, you've got to do what you've got to do to make it in this world.
01:09:56.000When you see all these different bills that are being passed that are slowly eroding the rights of American citizens and slowly taking away your liberties and slowly making it easier for them to spy on you, that is not someone looking out for your best interest.
01:10:35.000The real issue is they don't need to be that way.
01:10:38.000They're that way because they're incompetent.
01:10:40.000They're that way because they're unhappy.
01:10:42.000And you can't run the world like a cunt and still be a happy person.
01:10:45.000You're not going to have as much benefit even in your own life.
01:10:49.000And our problem is we don't look at the world, we don't look at our life, we don't look at our existence as, you know, what is the most important thing?
01:10:56.000Well, the abundance of happiness, love...
01:11:18.000You want enough money so that you can eat and have a roof over your head and be able to enjoy the comforts of home, a nice couch, and normal shit.
01:11:27.000That is really the money that you need in this life, to have happiness.
01:12:51.000There's the idea that you can connect.
01:12:57.000Now, a lot of people don't like the word God, so get rid of that fucking word.
01:13:01.000But there's the idea that you can connect with a kind of infinite flow of energy.
01:13:05.000This is the shit that Tesla talked about.
01:13:07.000This is the shit that a lot of people have come in contact with this fucking thing.
01:13:11.000And they have a lot of different words for this fucking thing.
01:13:13.000But the idea is that once you begin to connect with that thing, or even flirt with the connection to that thing, and figure out ways to like really establish that, when you begin to feel what that feels like, that sense of connection, that sense of being in the flow,
01:13:29.000being in harmony, that thing, you can't buy that feeling.
01:13:33.000There's no way money's ever gonna buy that feeling, and it's a feeling that makes any kind of It makes everything else just seem like icing on the cake.
01:13:42.000And I think a lot of these people have just simply gotten disconnected.
01:13:46.000They're like a garden hose with a kink in it.
01:13:48.000They're not getting like an energetic flow.
01:13:52.000Eating plastic and have this kind of existential nutritional deficiency that manifests in the form of an outbreak of cuntiness.
01:14:00.000And it's like, it's mostly just because they haven't made that big fucking connection.
01:14:05.000The connection people make through psychedelics.
01:14:07.000The connection people make through chanting.
01:14:09.000I really don't think that you can become a fully developed human being unless you have some series of events in your life, more than one, that break down your vision of the world I think
01:14:55.000You're really never going to understand that you've been tricked by your own ego.
01:15:00.000You've been tricked by your own ego, first of all, into thinking that this is somehow or another permanent.
01:15:04.000It is unquestionably a temporary experience.
01:15:06.000You've got to enjoy the shit out of it.
01:15:08.000You've got to have as much fun as you can while it's going on.
01:15:11.000But you better be treating it like what it is, because it's fucking temporary.
01:15:15.000And you're leaving behind a wake and a ripple of shit that is going to go from you on to your ancestors and your shitty kids that you've raised.
01:15:38.000If all these fucking, you know, these guys that are in secret societies and skull and bones and shit, if they all just dropped the bullshit, stopped being pussies, and took mushrooms, the whole picture would change immediately.
01:15:51.000You would have, look at, and folks, this is not, you know, I'm not making this up.
01:15:54.000Look at John Hopkins University's studies on psilocybin use.
01:15:57.000And what happened to people with one psilocybin experience over the course of a couple of years, their personalities changed for the better.
01:16:05.000These pussies, they need to stop dressing up like fucking eyes wide shut and boning each other in the ass and videotaping it and holding each other hostage with the information.
01:16:16.000Instead of doing it that way, they need to get together and do some fucking mushrooms.
01:16:20.000But, man, it's such an important thing to make this connection, however you do it.
01:16:25.000McKenna was really into mushrooms because it was an expeditious way to do it, and he was a believer in 2012 and the idea of some kind of eschatological event that was going to wipe us all out, so we've got to move quick.
01:16:43.000His thing was, like, you're not going to get people to, like...
01:16:46.000This transformation in society you're talking about, he...
01:16:50.000Maybe fairly recognized that like, let's make this shit happen fast and the fastest way to do it would be to get everyone or as many people as possible to experience the psychedelic state and bring that into the world through our action.
01:17:02.000Well, no, he didn't really believe in the end of the world for 2012. That's what I'm saying.
01:17:08.000He thought it was going to be a time machine.
01:17:10.000He thought it was going to be some moment of ultimate novelty that it was going to be a technological thing.
01:17:15.000Right, yeah, I guess when I say the end of the world, I mean like his idea was more of a positive end of the world scenario, but still apocalypse, lifting of the veil, transformation of the old ways into some complete moment of novelty.
01:17:29.000And like he was into like, the reason, I'm just trying to get to the point that he liked to like, he placed mushrooms over meditation.
01:17:35.000Where there's other people who say, You know, the problem with the psychedelic experience is that it gets you there, and it gets you there quick, but you've got to come back out of that.
01:17:50.000And the idea is to, like, how can we...
01:18:28.000And also, if you've got some weird social issues and psychological issues, you can start having grandiose ideas based on psychedelic experiences.
01:18:37.000I've talked to people that had psychedelic experiences and believed that there's a whole team of beings out there that are looking out for them and that Succeed for what?
01:19:08.000I'm trying to get like, my mind wants there to be a result.
01:19:11.000Like, you know, some kind of like metaphysical tricep development or something through meditation because we've been taught To be completely a result-oriented, to live a result-oriented life.
01:19:24.000And the paradox of meditation is the idea is like, no, no, no.
01:19:43.000Coming into where you are at this very moment, wherever the fuck you happen to be, you know?
01:19:47.000Fucking lotion all over your dick because you just jerked off to porn or fucking with beer cans all over your fucking house or wherever you are.
01:19:54.000You get into that moment and become that thing.
01:19:57.000And the paradox of being fully in that thing is that your situations and conditions will begin to transform.
01:20:05.000Because that's where the real healing starts happening.
01:20:07.000The real transformation doesn't start with a fucking beating yourself up.
01:20:12.000It starts with a sense of like, all right, hold on.
01:20:36.000It's something that's like a really strange thing because to get to a place Where you aren't such a cunt and where you aren't trapped, you need to first understand what your prison cell is like.
01:20:48.000Isn't it fascinating when you see these Wall Street guys, like I read about another one the other day, who's realized that his fund had lost hundreds of millions of dollars, and so he committed suicide?
01:21:51.000This is like fucking, you know, it's so funny how the Bible's rife with really great information, but if you take it literally, it's retarded.
01:21:58.000But the Bible's always like, the God of the Bible's always against false idols and is always saying, you know, don't worship false idols.
01:22:05.000If you worship false idols, you're fucked.
01:22:07.000And people like that, you know, they started this crazy worship of bullshit.
01:22:13.000And the end result is you end up in a pretty fucking crappy extinction event.
01:23:06.000And one of the reasons, one of the real big ones that sort of catapulted it was when this guy, Dr. Gates, has found hidden error correction codes hidden in the equations of supersymmetry.
01:23:21.000It's really, really hard to wrap your head around, but in his words...
01:23:25.000They had found the presence of codes in the equations of physics, not that they were trying to compute something, and the way he describes it says it's a little bit like doing biology, where if you studied an animal, you'd eventually run into its DNA, and that's essentially what's happened to us.
01:23:40.000These codes that we found, they're like the DNA that sits inside of the equations that we study.
01:23:52.000I mean, the reason it's fucking cool is because it's a new version of a very old idea that's being told using the current state-of-the-art language that we have today.
01:24:05.000But this idea of the universe being a computer simulation, the Maya, as they call it in India, which means illusion, this is a very old fucking idea.
01:24:15.000Well, John Wheeler, John Archibald Wheeler, was an American theoretical physicist who was largely responsible, according to the biography on him, largely responsible for reviving interest in general relativity in the United States after World War II. And one of the things that Dr. Gates had said was that he thought that Wheeler was crazy.
01:25:13.000But what I really think might be going on is that the reality as it stands has many more elements to it than just things you can hit and knock on with your knuckles.
01:25:26.000Things you could beat with a hammer or throw water on.
01:25:29.000I think there's a lot more than the solid physical matter of the universe that we're not totally taking into consideration.
01:25:37.000And I always bring up the idea of the imagination.
01:25:40.000That we look at the imagination as, well, when I was a kid, you know, oh, he's got such a vivid imagination because I would lie about shit, you know, draw pictures and make up things.
01:25:48.000But what the imagination really is, is this hail of ideas in your mind that, if followed through, manifest physical things in this reality.
01:25:59.000So it's not simply just this airy-fairy, woo-woo thing that's like this non-important, intangible aspect of life.
01:26:30.000And another aspect is the exact vibration you put out there.
01:26:35.000The love that you put out there, the friendship that you put out there, the happiness that you bring to people.
01:26:40.000You know, look, we're experiencing it in a form with this whole podcast network thing because all of us together, you know, having podcasts, all of us together pushing this.
01:26:51.000Happy, positive, you know, sort of vibe out there and then having all these happy, positive people come to the shows and experiencing a direct result of this, creating this way of thinking where people are coming up to us on a daily fucking basis.
01:27:06.000Last night at the Laugh Factory, a bunch of dudes came up to me and said the same thing.
01:27:13.000You changed my life, changed the way I look at things, changed the way I'm happier now, I was going through a bad breakup, I was fat, I lost weight, I got healthy.
01:27:21.000It's all the same thought re-repeating itself over and over and over again.
01:27:27.000And that thought is that you're putting out a positive thing and positive results are being accumulated because of this transmission.
01:27:43.000You're using a technological amplifier to blast positive energy out into the world and it's exponentially increasing the positivity that just starts in this room with a couple of microphones.
01:27:57.000And not just positive energy, but A positive philosophy that you can use.
01:28:03.000You can actually apply and get direct results.
01:28:07.000It will inspire you and you can apply it.
01:28:10.000Also a philosophy that is being is open source in the sense that the people you're blasting it out to at least my experience has been some of these people email you shit you've never heard before Books you've never heard before.
01:28:22.000And then that gets added to it, applied to it, and woven into this fucking awesome thing, which is essentially just like an internet salon.
01:28:30.000It's a kind of salon in the old idea of what it was, which is where a group of people would get together and talk about philosophy.
01:28:36.000Well, it's where Twitter comes into play is the ability to exchange links in the short form where you're going to read them...
01:28:43.000People send me emails, Jesus Christ, some of you crazy fucks that send me these 17-page emails on your whole life story.
01:30:09.000When you stop and think about it, if we do come up with smart computers, what if one of the things that we do is make your whole house a living network?
01:33:49.000Jar Jar Bank's like, what the fuck was that?
01:33:52.000That's like, just taking an Ewok and just removing everything that's good about it and adding more stupidity.
01:34:00.000And what's even creepier is when they changed it.
01:34:02.000Like, they just re-released all the Star Wars on Blu-ray, and I guess they did all these things like making the Ewoks blink now, because they didn't used to blink, I guess.
01:34:46.000I think that's what those movies came from, is a psychedelic, bringing something back from the psychedelic universe and then using art as the kind of clothes that you drape around this hyper-dimensional form.
01:35:48.000I was shitting all the fat people at Disneyland on scooters, and he's talking about how great it is that Disneyland is accessible for wheelchair.
01:36:01.000This guy, Raghu Marcus, who I have on my podcast, who helps run the Love Server Member Foundation, which is Ram Dass' foundation, They have a podcast now called Mind Rolling.
01:41:26.000Isn't it funny that, like, there's a certain amount of shit you could wear, like, in your daily life that they'll allow you to wear, like, that's a costume outside of being dressed up for Halloween.
01:44:17.000In Hollywood filmmaking, merkins are worn by actors and actresses to prevent inadvertent exposure of the genitalia during nude or semi-nude scenes.
01:44:25.000If a merkin were not worn, it would be necessary to restrict the shot to exclude the genital area.
01:44:31.000Dude, have you ever heard of the way they shoot sex scenes, how they bring the boyfriends in?
01:45:16.000The Rock is just, like, his giant tattooed chest is sweating into your wife's mouth as he's fake pumping her with her legs over her head.
01:45:25.000Fucking her in a way you could never possibly do with your lift frame and your jogger's body.
01:45:32.000Big, giant, fucking Samoan tribal tattoos on his roided-up chest, and he's just pumping his giant, semi-hard cock on the outside of your wife's pussy.
01:45:43.000And you know, deep inside, she's just slippery and gliding, and she wished she would just shove it in.
01:46:20.000That would be how their paws would connect.
01:46:22.000You would play that game with the plastic chimps.
01:46:25.000Well, he's got to take his hand in sort of that position to just suck up the gut and pull it up so his short, semi-hard penis can even get inside your woman.
01:46:33.000And the stink wafting out of that flap is like a homeless dude just took off his boot.
01:48:26.000But it is weird how bad breath is almost like a demonic force that possesses people and compels them to tell the longest, most boring stories.
01:48:34.000It is weird how people with bad breath want to tell you fucking stories.
01:52:05.000Yeah, they're not in shape, they're not in tune with their body, and they don't understand that you are releasing tension and you're creating a different state of consciousness when you do yoga.
01:52:23.000I've had real, legitimate, life-changing experiences after yoga where I've really sat down.
01:52:29.000When I say life-changing, I mean in degrees, left, right, forward.
01:52:34.000There's like certain times where I've had experiences in my life that were literally life-changing because I sat down and that extra inspiration that I got from that moment that extra positivity that extra clarity that I got moved me in a percentage of a point in one direction and it's almost always towards the good I've had that from yoga.
01:53:26.000There's a lot of those fake yoga guys that try to, like, fuck chicks and, you know, they try to, like, be fake spiritual and they sing, like, Indian songs, you know, that they memorize just to fucking impress people with their Hindu street cred.
01:54:09.000This is like one of the fun thought experiments you can do is right now, maybe you don't, but right now in a lot of people's minds they already have this idea of what an enlightened person should act like.
01:54:30.000This is that saying, if you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him.
01:54:35.000That's the idea, which is like anything in your mind that's kind of defining the way you think an advanced person should be, Creates a real big problem because you'll start pretending to be that way.
01:54:48.000You know, you start putting on a costume or a show.
01:54:51.000But yeah, most of those folks you run into are the real deal, man.
01:54:54.000They're just totally in the fucking moment.
01:56:03.000I will eat the shit out of an ostrich.
01:56:05.000I will kimura an ostrich's neck and kill it and eat the shit out of it.
01:56:10.000When I was living in Asheville, their necks are perfect for strangling.
01:56:15.000I bet you can't even guillotine them, though.
01:56:17.000I bet their necks just go right with it.
01:56:19.000I bet they can peck the fuck out of here.
01:56:21.000Peck your dick while you're trying to guillotine them.
01:56:24.000I used to be so poor when I was living in Asheville that I would go to Fuddruckers and order a bun and just, like, eat the lettuce and the tomatoes and the onions from the fucking hamburger bar.
01:57:20.000There's bars everywhere and nice people and, eh, sure, there's a few drum circles and there's a few fucking hippies sitting on the ground on the sidewalk.
02:00:57.000A huge spoon in the cinnamon is supposed to make you trip.
02:01:01.000Yeah, in some parts of the world, particularly in northern Mexico and southwestern United States, like we live, bitches, Salvia Divinorum grows wild.
02:02:37.000There are psychedelics that if you take low doses, definitely can be social lubricants and can be fun for partying, but salvia doesn't feel like that at all.
02:02:46.000Yeah, well, people that take it, that make videos of them taking it, they certainly support that.
02:02:51.000Those videos of people, like Brian has a few of them out there, and the one with Ari freaking out, where Ari did it in front of him.
02:02:58.000And Ari did it, and this is one of my favorite stories of Salvia.
02:03:03.000Ari did it and lived another life for months.
02:03:07.000He made friends, he had relationships, he lived a life in this artificial world for months, and then was snapped back to reality when it sobered up.
02:03:47.000You know, I read this thing where they said that you're supposed to not wear sunglasses and that you should allow a certain amount of sunlight to hit your eyes because there's essential nutrients that you get from sunlight, just like you get nutrients from sunlight and vitamin D,
02:04:02.000and also you get nutrients that help your vision.
02:07:37.000You should do public service announcements.
02:07:39.000Everyone now who buys a gun must fill out the ATF form 4473 which asks, are you an unlawful user of or addicted to marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?
02:07:56.000Well, that's an amazing question, first of all, because you can answer, no, I'm not, because I'm not an unlawful user, because I'm a medical marijuana user in the state of California where I had a doctor's prescription for it.
02:08:09.000So, no, that's not a law, but it's not true federally.
02:08:13.000And then it's to say, are you addicted to marijuana or any depressant stimulant?
02:09:36.000What they're doing is they're making it so that anybody who runs a medical marijuana plant We're good to go.
02:10:07.000The Second Amendment is a very important part of anybody who wants to hunt their own food, be able to protect themselves from criminals, be able to protect themselves from predators if you live in a rural community.
02:10:22.000If you live in Montana and you're living out in the woods, like in that show Mountain Men, these motherfuckers, they need guns to shoot off bears.
02:10:30.000They have bears that they need to shoot at.
02:10:32.000I mean, if you don't, the bear comes and eats you.
02:11:27.000Bureau Assistant Director Arthur Herbert writes in the open letter to all gun sellers, any person who uses or is addicted to marijuana, regardless of whether his or her state has passed legislation authorizing marijuana use for medicinal purposes,
02:11:46.000is prohibited by federal law from possessing firearms or ammunition.
02:11:52.000That shit makes me want to join the NRA. It really does.
02:12:24.000The ATF, or the National Rifle Association, isn't commenting on it.
02:12:27.000It says the National Rifle Association, which frequently butts heads with the ATF, has not put out a statement on the letter, and a spokesperson there did not return calls for comment.
02:12:40.000A spokesman for Rocky Mountain gun owners was also silent.
02:12:50.000It's a really sad thing because that's just the pressure from pharmaceutical companies that are trying to make sure that medical marijuana doesn't spill off into some sort of a decriminalization event nationwide and, you know, to stop it in its place.
02:13:06.000And the reason why it's in Montana is because if you've ever been to Montana, a huge percentage of the people in Montana hunt.
02:13:12.000When we were in Montana, everywhere we drove, people were, there was like signs that said, welcome hunters.
02:13:19.000Like in bars and restaurants, it said welcome hunters.
02:13:22.000There's a lot of fucking people hunting up there.
02:13:24.000And there's also a lot of people up there that like to get high.
02:13:26.000So they decided to kill the medical marijuana community there by making it so that if you are a legal registered medical marijuana patient, you can't own a firearm.
02:13:44.000It said Jeff Dorscher, a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Colorado, said the decision whether to prosecute someone would be made on a case-by-case basis.
02:13:56.000That's basically saying they have you by the balls.
02:13:59.000There don't appear to be any cases in Colorado where people have been prosecuted for illegally owning guns because they are medical marijuana patients.
02:14:05.000Because there's so many medical marijuana patients who have guns in Colorado.
02:14:09.000You've just made felons out of a million people, and that's not exaggeration.
02:14:14.000The medical marijuana community in Colorado is fucking amazing.
02:14:28.000The moment you're making laws like that, isn't it kind of a slippery slope where you can't expect there to be other logical laws following that?
02:14:35.000I mean, isn't the thing, like, what they're doing is obviously wrong, and that seems to be part of what they do.
02:14:42.000The federal government makes shitty laws that have no basis in actual reality and are just based on whatever their weird power agenda is.
02:14:52.000It's that, but I think it's also them, it's a death row.
02:15:10.000Because gun owners and hunters are some of the most organized motherfuckers.
02:15:14.000You know, it's really interesting how these fish and game departments are entirely funded by The conservation efforts are entirely funded by hunters.
02:15:23.000Hunters and hunting And gun owners are the ones who organize like one of the best run departments in the entire country is the different states' fish and game departments.
02:15:33.000They're incredibly efficient at managing game populations, at setting tag limits, at managing the number of livestock or wildlife rather, wildlife stock like men and females and they do all these surveys and tests.
02:15:46.000They're incredibly efficient because it's all based on people who actually care about the environment, who actually go out And hunt these wild animals.
02:15:53.000So you're going to get them against you.
02:15:56.000And this is supposed to be the government.
02:15:59.000This is supposed to be the people that are looking out for you.
02:16:05.000They're just making shit more complicated, making government deeper, creating more fucking problems, creating more cunty scenarios where you're going to lock someone in jail because they like to smoke weed and they like to hunt.
02:16:29.000The idea that you could put yourself in jeopardy, that you could possibly get locked in a cage and not be able to see your family for an extended period of time because you did something that you wanted to do that didn't hurt anybody.
02:17:14.000And then, of course, he would, like, taught us to shoot.
02:17:17.000And it was, like, the way how strict and stern he was with weapons, like, I'll never forget that.
02:17:24.000I'm so fucking careful when I get around guns because he, like, raised me in the right way.
02:17:29.000And that came from being only people who haven't been around guns are afraid of guns.
02:17:33.000Yeah, it's like when your kids find guns in your house.
02:17:36.000If your kids are raised and taught what a gun is and what's important and why it's dangerous, they're going to be okay because they're used to being around them anyway.
02:17:46.000Yeah, you know how to put the safety on.
02:20:14.000Well, apparently the difference between the way wildlife is run in America and wildlife was run in the European world, and that was one of the things that made the United States so great when people came here from Europe, was that in Europe, all land and hunting is all owned by royalty and rich people.
02:20:50.000You have to kill only a certain amount of them according to how much population you have in the area.
02:20:56.000And that was what made these Daniel Boone characters that came here from a European background so happy that they could live this sort of different life where they're running around just hunting whenever they wanted to and be able to provide for their family,
02:21:55.000We have like Academy Awards for the best teachers.
02:21:57.000So teachers become the celebrities, fucking make it so that it's the most competitive industry to get in.
02:22:03.000So the people who become teachers are these fucking super genius, brilliant people who start really teaching kids about how incredible and beautiful the universe is.
02:22:36.000You fucking start with the kids, get them educated, get them excited about life, get them to understand that we exist in a beautiful, juicy, vibrant world, and that your brain is an alchemical laboratory which can produce thoughts, which if you put those thoughts into action, can transform your entire planet in the same way that the invention of electricity or the varieties of technologies that have come from the mind have shifted our planet,
02:23:54.000And so that makes kids, when they think about reading or books or math or any of it, they just have this like the same reaction you have when you've gotten a tequila hangover and someone offers you tequila.
02:24:04.000Because you've been having this shit pumped into you in the absolute wrong way.
02:24:08.000We can't educate kids the way we make foie gras by fucking Of course,
02:24:28.000Okay, but devil's advocate, when you look at the possibility of computer simulations and you look at the idea that life is some sort of computer program, those people inspired you to not be like them.
02:24:41.000Those people inspired you with energy and the motivation and will to move past their paradigm and to see the error of their ways.
02:24:53.000And one of the best ways to see the error of someone's ways is to see someone who's just preaching bullshit living a miserable life.
02:24:59.000You see it and it's like it's almost more powerful sometimes than a positive image and a positive message.
02:25:06.000Some of the reason why I got motivated to do all the things that I did was because I was raised shitty.
02:25:12.000I'll tell you what's motivated me, dude.
02:25:14.000What's motivated me is running into some really great teachers in my life.
02:25:36.000I also think that the people that are trying to stop me and the people that have said shitty things to me, those people just, they started a fire inside me.
02:25:45.000I don't know if it would have been there if it was just a positive reaction.
02:25:49.000I think the yin and the yang is important.
02:25:54.000Clearly, you're never going to get rid of this fucking negative element, but you can be with people who teach what you just said, which is a kind of Nietzschean idea that part of what we need is a thing to resist.
02:27:06.000We're almost destined to follow a positive.
02:27:09.000We have several different options for achieving a positive result, including being raised badly, including being raised by someone who doesn't care about you and forces you to be a much more loving and caring parent.
02:28:11.000And the response was, the guy, and if you take it literally, it's stupid, but the response was, he was born blind so that that miracle could be worked through him, so that novelty could come into the universe in the moment that he regained his sight.
02:28:25.000And I think that's a really beautiful fucking idea, which is that your situation, whatever your specific situation happens to be that is a negative, backed into a corner, dark fucking place, in one way, it's the most awful thing ever.
02:28:40.000But in another way, there is nothing more fucking beautiful Like when you have a friend who's like a desperate, horrible, fucking alcoholic, whose life has gone to shit, who's broke all the time, and is almost dying, and you see him overcome that fucking addiction, and all of a sudden this guy,
02:28:56.000wherever he goes, to anyone who's an alcoholic, is like a living representation of the fact that you don't have to live like that.
02:29:05.000So your negative state, whether you're obese, whether you're drunk, whether you're on heroin, whatever the fucking thing is that you happen to be in because of circumstance or whatever, that has the potential energy.
02:29:17.000You can convert that into a living teaching.
02:29:20.000So that everyone around you can see that you mastered yourself and rose above the darkness.
02:29:25.000And the people who are in that dark place, they'll be inspired by that a million times more than reading the Bhagavad Gita a thousand times or seeing something written down.
02:29:35.000Because you're the living example of the fact that life, human life, and the human individual's life can radically transform for the positive if you focus.
02:29:46.000And if you are, there's some luck in there too.
02:29:50.000These negative situations, they're given to us, I don't want to say given, but they're an opportunity to really show people shit can get better.
02:30:00.000You know like when you see someone who's a cunt?
02:30:04.000And they're yapping about whatever the fuck, you know what I mean?
02:30:07.000But their life sucks and they're always in drama and they're in a bad relationship.
02:30:10.000You know, it's like, what are you talking about?
02:30:12.000But when you run into an authentically happy person who's utilized principles and transformed their lives, you fucking listen to that, man.
02:30:20.000Well, when you run into people that are doing things also, you feel the need to do things.
02:30:26.000When you read about someone who's inspirational, you get inspired.
02:30:31.000We draw energy from other examples, including negative ones.
02:30:35.000You'll see a fat person who'll motivate you to go to the gym.
02:30:37.000You'll see some guy on a fucking scooter with his gut hanging over the handlebars, and you'll throw the Twinkie away.
02:30:44.000We're capable of taking positives from negatives.
02:30:47.000Damn right, we can draw energy from all sources.
02:30:50.000It doesn't just have to be like inspirational people.
02:30:54.000Certainly you can like, really the idea is whatever the energy is coming into you, shift it, turn it, transform it, be the fucking prism that shifts whatever that energy is into like a beautiful rainbow instead of like a turd.
02:31:08.000And even when it is positive, just let it enhance your rainbow.
02:32:24.000From the collective consciousness, a broadcast from the culture of the world that we can slowly but surely, despite all the news and evidence to the contrary, slowly but surely all move towards a more positive state.
02:32:39.000This thing you're talking about is what I think of as the river and the forest effect.
02:32:45.000Have you ever been walking in a forest and suddenly you become aware of the sound of the river?
02:32:49.000It's been there the whole time, but it's such a subtle sound that blends in with the wind and the sound, but all of a sudden you hear that light trickling of water running over rocks.
02:33:00.000It's a kind of like metaphysical river that runs through everything and it's very subtle and it's very easy to forget that it's there.
02:33:09.000And we gotta figure out how to get it to the ATF. We gotta figure out how to get it to these fucking crazy assholes.
02:33:15.000The same people that brought you the Fast and the Furious trying to lock you up for having a rifle and a fucking medical marijuana license.
02:33:21.000We gotta get this to the same people that run the federal bank that want to pretend there's some fucking crazy debt that we have to pay off.
02:33:55.000And then get to the point where the consciousness has evolved so much that it's ridiculous to everyone, including the people that are in charge.
02:34:03.000Yeah, but this is another thing we always say, but just talking about this reminds me of it, man.
02:34:08.000It's so easy to forget this shit, and it's so easy to go out into the world and everything's goddamn rubbing you the wrong way.
02:34:15.000Everything can seem so fucking terrible, but then when you realize, no, you don't have to be a victim.
02:34:20.000You can either get rolled by the wave of phenomena or you can surf on the fucking top of it.
02:34:25.000And when you remember that, then suddenly when you go out into the world, the asshole you run into at the fucking gym, the shitty waiter, whatever the cunt in traffic, these things become little packets of energy that you can use to enhance your existence and to grow.
02:35:26.000Brian's over there with a glass of heroin mixed with AIDS. I flavor my heroin with AIDS. There's nothing like heroin flavored AIDS. Take off your glasses and show the world your eyes, Duncan Trestle.
02:39:48.000One of them has a fucking runway for a plane and this rustic-looking log house that's built over this several-floor missile silo that's converted into this crazy storage compound.
02:40:06.000You know, it already came to New York and New Jersey and all our brothers and sisters out there on the beach in Jersey that lost your houses.
02:40:13.000Mad love and respect to you and all the people in Long Island that lost their places, we feel for you.
02:40:18.000That fucking hurricane's a cunt and a half.
02:40:21.000And it may be just the beginning of more crazy storms.
