Planned Parenthood has been accused of selling fetuses. And it's not just fetuses, it's whole body parts. And they're selling them as "line items" for scientific testing and research. So what the hell are they doing with them? And why are they selling them to other people? Is it a scam? Or is it a real thing? And what are they actually doing with these parts? And is it even a scam at all? And if it's a scam, why is it so disturbing? And how do they get away with it? Well, we'll find out on this episode of Thick & Thin, where we talk about all of that and much more. Also, we have a new segment coming soon, called "Blame It On Me" where we discuss our favorite conspiracy theories and what we think about them. Stay tuned for that! Stay tuned to the end of the episode for our next episode where we'll be talking about a new conspiracy theory that we think is going to be debunked and why we think it's actually a scam.

00:00:01.000Ladies and gentlemen, the internet is a fucking crazy place.
00:00:07.000I need some positive stuff, because I fucked up today.
00:00:12.000This morning, got up this morning, did my usual stuff, checked my email, handled some business, was sitting there drinking a little kombucha, and I read my message board.
00:00:26.000And I read this Planned Parenthood thread.
00:00:42.000They were accused of selling fetuses, and actually not just selling fetuses, but making deals to deliver more intact fetuses, and talking about...
00:00:56.000The body parts as line items, and I was like, well, come on, that can't be real.
00:01:03.000So Call Me Pete is the gentleman who put it up on the website on the message board.
00:01:08.000If you're having a problem, join that message board, by the way.
00:01:11.000We switched hosts, and there was just a giant fuck-up along the way, and along the way there was something around...
00:01:20.00013,000 spam accounts signed up that were just fake, like a bunch of numbers like 6-7-8-9-10, 6-7-8-9-10-11, 6-7-8-9-10-11-12, like that kind of shit, like a bunch of them, so we have to figure out a way to filter that stuff out.
00:01:36.000Anyway, the video, if you want to search for the video, the video on YouTube, if you really want to watch it, it's intact fetuses, in quotes, just a matter of line items for Planned Parenthood.
00:01:54.000First of all, it's disturbing the way this woman is talking about fetuses.
00:01:57.000And, you know, it's kind of creepy the way she's talking about the...
00:02:02.000There's buyers that want these specimens.
00:02:05.000And I guess they're for medical tests or for scientific tests.
00:02:09.000It's hard to sit through the whole thing.
00:02:14.000Then they get deep into the video and that's where it gets really fucking disturbing because the people that are buying ask if they can see some of the product or some of the samples I think is the word they used so the woman says well from the abortion say they're all just in like a big pile and They they say well,
00:02:35.000We just you know, we would like to go see him so they go to this pile and And they start picking things out with tweezers, including fully intact arms with hands.
00:02:48.000Like a little baby arm that's maybe, you know, an inch and a half long, two inches long, with fingers.
00:02:56.000And, you know, they're talking about it like...
00:03:00.000Like you would talk about like how you grow tomatoes like well if you get tomatoes that are like six weeks old They look like that if you get them that are 12 weeks old you get more more parts Dude, it's fucking Really disturbing because they're pulling these things out with tweezers.
00:03:20.000Well, it's hard to tell in this big pile.
00:03:22.000It's a pile of parts man and it first of all If you've ever had an abortion, or you know someone's had an abortion, or you've had a girlfriend, or you personally, you don't think about what exactly is going on there.
00:03:38.000But when you look at this pile of these parts, you're forced to recognize exactly what it is, and then you're forced to wonder what's going on through the minds of these people that are just talking about them and referring to them in quotes,
00:03:54.000just a matter of line items And there's this fucking pile of baby parts that they sucked out of a woman's body or a bunch of women's bodies.
00:04:07.000I remember seeing this video because it was made for a recent bill or something like that in Congress that the anti-abortion people put as a shock video, a scare video, and I thought it was fully debunked.
00:04:21.000I didn't know that that was the actual real thing.
00:04:28.000I guess the video makes it show it was it's supposed to be one of those like gotcha videos Where it's it's it's mixing lies with like real stuff that they actually do in the video and I thought for sure it was debunked, but maybe I was wrong I didn't really look into it too much,
00:04:45.000but well if you think it was debunked You can figure out a way to pull up a link that says it's debunked what Planned Parenthood hoax really proves right-wing extremists have no qualms or About destroying people's lives and when does this come out?
00:04:59.000This came out July 16th This is that salon.com though by the way, which is an insanely left-wing site.
00:05:08.000Yeah So let's just Google it just to say Planned Parenthood video White House says Planned Parenthood videos are fake.
00:05:33.000The latest undercover Planned Parenthood video is an interview with Kate Dyer, CEO of an organization called STEM Express that buys aborted baby parts from Planned Parenthood and sells them to researchers.
00:05:46.000There are no graphic images in this video, but Dyer's comments about shipping the severed intact...
00:06:57.000Where they're like, in quotes, we need limbs, but no hands and feet need to be attached.
00:07:02.000We want to take it all off, like, in quotes, make it so that we don't know what it is.
00:07:09.000I don't know what is debunked and what's not debunked about that, because it seems like in the conversation, I mean look, when they're digging through that bag of baby parts, which was the most disturbing part of it.
00:07:25.000Look, if people are gonna get abortions, I personally do not have a problem with them taking the aborted fetal tissue and using it for scientific experiments because The aborted fetal tissue already exists.
00:07:41.000And if abortions are legal, shouldn't there be something done with that aborted fetal tissue that may be beneficial to humanity?
00:07:48.000Shouldn't there be a way that they can experiment?
00:07:50.000I mean, it's not like they're asking people to get abortions that would normally have kept the baby and loved them and brought them to adulthood.
00:08:17.000But, you know, what this article in the Huffington Post is saying is that what they did is they took shocking video of, you know, abortions, which is going to be disgusting anyways, and they're saying that, you know, Planned Parenthood's making all this money off of selling all the parts to, you know...
00:08:34.000But what Planned Parenthood is saying is, no, we just donate it to scientists and people that want to use it for medical research.
00:08:43.000That's not what was going on in the video.
00:08:45.000In the video, the woman was talking about the amount of money that they would get doing it, and it was thousands of dollars a week.
00:08:50.000And that's why they're saying that's a hoax, and they're saying that the visuals, what you're watching, wasn't what the audio was.
00:08:59.000Wait a minute, that doesn't make any sense, because you see the woman say it.
00:09:02.000The group behind the videos is facing at least two lawsuits because it's fake.
00:09:46.000And then according to the Hoaxer's website, it was a 30-month long investigative journalism study by the Center of Medical Progress documenting how Planned Parenthood sells body parts for aborted babies.
00:10:26.000And they're also saying that this bill that was passing was going to cut off all funding to Planned Parenthood.
00:10:31.000So this was like a full-on attack trying to get rid of Planned Parenthood by anti-abortionists.
00:10:36.000Jamie, scroll back down, back where you were again.
00:10:40.000The details of the processes are enough to trouble anyone.
00:10:43.000Non-medical people don't talk about the price of requesting removing or shipping organs, pieces of fush from place to place.
00:10:49.000Most of us would freak out if we listened to professionals in the local hospital, funeral home, or medical examiner's office discuss details about how a dying person's request to have their body parts donated I don't know.
00:12:51.000It's, um, it's fucking, it's just, it's really one of those things.
00:12:57.000Abortion, it becomes one of those left or right issues where you're either a left-wing person, you support abortion, or you're a right-wing person, you think it's horrific.
00:14:20.000That's when it gets kind of creepy in my opinion.
00:14:23.000Yeah, well, we all know people that are completely irresponsible and if you give them a way to justify anything and so they don't have to take responsibility for it and just take take it out of me You know, they don't want to think they don't see it in front of them.
00:14:38.000They don't think of it as a baby The question really becomes, should you be allowed to do that?
00:14:48.000I mean, some people think it's their call.
00:14:49.000Some people think that they should be blowing up abortion clinics and shooting doctors and, you know, they decide they're there to protect the children.
00:17:12.000The lion was like, what are you doing outside the Jeep, you dumb fuck, and just jacked him.
00:17:17.000It's hilarious that people are that stupid, that they think they can walk around where lions are walking around in this enormous, enormous park in Zimbabwe where lions are protected.
00:17:28.000Have you ever been to one of those safari tours where the animals come right up and the lions and the monkeys just jump on your car or anything like that?
00:17:36.000I've been to one of those wild animal parks in New Jersey to do that.
00:17:52.000It's just it's odd they would let you drive around in your car and You'd be on this tour and That means better I guess than the zoo but it's got to be fucked up for the monkeys because it's like The same thing is looking at people through glass except you're looking at people through glass that moves on rubber wheels And you're just looking at these people that are free and you're stuck in this enclosure and they're driving into your house and You know,
00:18:39.000My three-year-old, when she was three, we brought her to the zoo, and she was feeding giraffes with her hand, and there was no worry at all.
00:18:46.000Everybody's laughing and having a good time.
00:18:48.000No giraffe has ever fucked up a kid at the zoo for feeding it.
00:18:52.000It'd be really interesting to see if animals could talk and be like, no, dude, you don't understand.
00:20:14.000This is my lion after I brought it to the dentist.
00:20:17.000Wow, so TMZ did a poll with almost 16,000 votes, if that was funny or offensive, about the Cecil the Lion costume, and 66% said that's offensive.
00:21:05.000It's fucked up that the only way to save lions is to make them valuable for hunters.
00:21:10.000Ultimately, that's the most fucked up thing about it.
00:21:14.000The idea that there's two types of hunting for conservation that kind of makes sense to me.
00:21:23.000When you have to kill certain animals because they're killing other animals.
00:21:28.000If you have too many lions and you have to control the population, but that's not really the case.
00:21:34.000That kind of hunting for conservation makes sense to me.
00:21:37.000Or if there's like a lot of people don't realize that that rhino that that guy paid a shitload of money to shoot They were gonna kill that rhino anyway They had to kill that rhino because that rhino was killing other rhinos and when they do that they they have to This is like a non-viable male.
00:21:53.000It's not breeding anymore And so it was attacking other males and killing them and it even attacked female and killed it they think so that's that's an animal they have to kill so if if you Get a guy who's willing to pay you a shitload of money to kill that rhino that you were already going to kill and then that money goes to conservation.
00:24:21.000They don't have a mountain lion season in California because we don't have a Department of Fish and Game in California.
00:24:27.000We have a Department of Fish and Wildlife.
00:24:30.000It has a totally different nomenclature attached to it.
00:24:34.000And because of that, It's run by wildlife lovers more than it's run by hunting advisors.
00:24:41.000In every other state, they look at the game numbers, they look at the mountain lions, and they try to manage it accordingly.
00:24:48.000And they also try to manage it because you get a lot of money from hunting tags.
00:24:52.000In California, they're less concerned with that.
00:24:55.000And because of that, they lose out on a lot of money on hunting tax because they'll have less hunters because they literally have less deer.
00:25:02.000And the reason why they have less deer is because they have more mountain lions.
00:25:05.000It's a real controversial thing with hunting in California as opposed to with every other state.
00:25:15.000It's like what what people decide and not decide that you can eat because there's all or what you can kill because in these places where they have these hunting laws you just drive down the street like California drive down any street and you're just gonna pass by Jack in the Box and Burger King and chicken places and they're filled filled yeah California finally has wolves yay great wolves pack of wolves fantastic Wait.
00:25:41.000This is going to be a fucking disaster.
00:25:43.000Did we put them there or did they just kind of...
00:25:55.000There was a story that I tweeted the other day about...
00:26:00.000Famous strongmen throughout history famous athletes throughout history and one of them was a guy who tried to Split these two trees and he got stuck in between the two trees and he got eaten by wolves This is like in the you know the BC days But,
00:26:18.000I mean, we've talked about this numerous times on the podcast, how many people throughout history have been eaten by wolves.
00:26:25.000That was a huge issue until people started killing the fuck out of wolves.
00:26:30.000And that's why we look at wolves now like they're our dogs.
00:26:38.000They were always these terrifying animals that That killed human beings.
00:26:43.000That's why they were always a part of folklore.
00:26:44.000That's why they were always a part of stories like the Little Red Riding Hood story or Goldilocks.
00:26:51.000I mean, there's always the three pigs.
00:26:52.000There was always stories of the big bad wolf because wolves were something that everybody was really scared of.
00:26:58.000The wolves in Paris story from the 1400s.
00:27:00.000Wolves killed, I think it was something like 40 people in Paris, France in the 1400s before they fucking rallied together and killed these goddamn things.
00:27:12.000During World War I, the Russians and the Germans literally stopped shooting each other.
00:27:18.000They had a ceasefire so they could kill wolves.
00:27:21.000Because there were so many people getting killed by wolves, these soldiers would be on patrol and they would never find them.
00:27:40.000Just we eradicated them from our lives, and we no longer have a threat of wolves.
00:27:45.000But now they implanted them, they took them from Canada, where they have a real problem with them, where, like I said, in BC, you can kill as many wolves as you want.
00:27:54.000You can go to BC right now and you can kill 50 wolves today.
00:27:58.000If you could find 50 wolves, you can kill them all.
00:28:20.000I'm sure goofy liberal conservationists decided to take these wolves and bring them from northern Canada and these big ass fucking gray wolves and bring them down to America.
00:28:34.000Here's a picture that Jamie just pulled out.
00:29:01.000We have this beautiful thing that we've created.
00:29:05.000We've created an amazing thing in cities.
00:29:08.000You know, you go to the grocery store, you get your food, you walk down the street, you hold hands for your kids, no one's looking over their shoulder for bears.
00:29:16.000And because of that we have this real detachment from the rest of the natural world that is outside of our cities.
00:29:22.000And we live our whole lives in these cities and our perspective of animals is completely shaped by these cities.
00:29:30.000But these animals out there don't give a fuck about you.
00:29:34.000They don't give a fuck about your city.
00:29:43.000And all our ideas about them are all from the Lion King and some fucking goofy-ass cartoons and movies, the anthropomorphized versions of these animals.
00:30:03.000That's where all this Cecil outrage comes from.
00:30:06.000Meanwhile, Justin Wren, who was on the podcast yesterday, told us that 5,000 children under the age of five die every day in Africa from bad water.
00:30:18.000Every day 5,000 human babies die because they don't have water and we're worried about a lion that by the way killed Who knows how many other lion babies because that's what they do when you see a male lion and he is successful and he runs a pride Yeah run fucking T that lion has been killing baby male lions because that's what they do and When the babies are born and it's not theirs,
00:30:50.000When they go into a new kingdom and they take over and they fuck some females and she's got males, little male babies, they fucking slaughter them.
00:30:58.000They chase them down and they kill them.
00:31:51.000He's gonna swoop right back, kill the governor.
00:31:55.000Somebody released a funny video where they showed that photo of Steven Spielberg in front of the dinosaur, and they went to people on the street and go, what do you think about that?
00:32:03.000And almost everybody was just like, I can't believe he did that.
00:32:13.000I guess Nestle water just got caught from stealing a bunch of natural water, and so a lot of people are protesting Nestle for stealing California water while we're in this huge drought.
00:34:03.000It says here, the most popular size bottle of Arrowhead is one liter, and it retails for 89 cents, putting the potential profit for Nestle in the tens of billions.
00:34:15.000So they're just making billions of dollars on water that they've taken from us while we're going through a drought.
00:34:22.000It only costs 89 cents for a one liter bottle of water.
00:34:36.000And it's also gross that there's a lot of crops that use this water, and there's a lot of waste involved, apparently.
00:34:47.000There have been bills that were passed, like Arnold Schwarzenegger, when he was governor, said that they had come up with a solution, at least a partial solution.
00:34:57.000And he was bringing it up to one of the other politicians and the politician was saying, even though this is an effective solution, I could never bring it before my people.
00:35:06.000I can never endorse it because my people are the agricultural people and those are the people that keep me in office.
00:35:12.000So I'm going to just tell you right now, well, we're just going to create a bunch of red tape and it'll never get passed.
00:35:18.000And even though it's logical and it makes sense, I'll never support it.
00:35:53.000One of the funniest things that they have conned people into doing is they figured out a way to tell people, like, I know you don't have any money.
00:36:15.000So they're going after people who are desperate and broke.
00:36:18.000And they had all these people that would give these speeches.
00:36:22.000They would talk about what happened to them.
00:36:24.000And they were saying, well, you know, I was broke, and I didn't have any money, and times were tough, and I was wondering how I was going to take my bills and how I was going to pay for food, but I had this $100 that I was going to use towards my rent, but I said, you know what?
00:36:37.000I'm giving this $100 to God, and everybody starts cheering and clapping, and then from that, oh, Lord, I got a new job, and I got a new car, and everything happened, and people are clapping and cheering, and music starts playing, and they build it up, and they're just,
00:36:57.000It's like this stimulation thing that they're doing, and they're actively targeting people so stupid that they really can't do anything about it.
00:37:06.000Like these people, it's like the right people to rip off, because these people are broke, and the reality is most people who are severely broke, they're gonna stay broke.
00:37:16.000The vast majority, whatever it is, 60, 70, 80%, pick a number, they're gonna stay broke.
00:37:23.000And so that's the ones that they go after.
00:37:35.000Do you think in the future that's going to be not as big of a problem?
00:37:41.000Do you think religion's shrinking or growing?
00:37:44.000I think religion is probably overall shrinking, but stupid people are always going to exist.
00:37:50.000And so if you call it a religion, or if you call it a cult, I mean, there's a lot of organizations that don't necessarily have some sort of a deity at the top of their structure, but they're still the same thing.
00:38:04.000It's one person who is, or one group of people, whether it's Scientology or anything else, One group of people that is offering you a solution for how to live your life, and they have all these guidelines that they have set up,
00:38:20.000and they want you to contribute, and they want your money.
00:38:22.000They want your money, and they want your time, and they want you to donate.
00:39:13.000And you know he's probably a bullshit artist and it's most likely that this is a hustle.
00:39:18.000Hustle maybe, but I know a girl, let me say this right, I know a girl that knows a girl, and that girl used to be one of his angels, and she left because it was too cult-like,
00:39:33.000and the things that you had to do, once a week they would have an orgy.
00:39:39.000And then they would just do drugs, have an orgy, have people over.
00:39:43.000And then the days after that orgy, you would work out, do yoga, eat healthy.
00:39:48.000And she said to her friend how it was just like brainwashed girls looking for their chance in Hollywood.
00:39:57.000And he would be like, oh no, you join this and you follow my plan.
00:40:02.000Anyways, the episode goes really into that.
00:40:05.000And it's watching them talk And watching how he reacts to the wife swap part of it, it's very interesting.
00:40:14.000It almost seems to me that whatever had happened in his past, maybe with Michael Jackson or his childhood, is really affecting him as an adult because he's very...
00:41:33.000He wasn't this guy that had this point.
00:41:35.000Even David Koresh, although he's a dipshit and he played stupid songs or the fucking idiot in Australia that claims he's Jesus, they have a certain amount Of confidence and smoothness to them L. Ron Hubbard didn't have any of that and meanwhile Scientology became a gigantic organization.
00:41:53.000I think for a lot of people The structure any sort of structure is comforting and they're looking for something So like you know to get back to the original point is religion going away There's gonna have to be something big that happens to human beings for religion to go away and I wonder if that big thing People would have to be able to clearly see what you know and what you don't know.
00:42:21.000It would have to be a fundamental change in how we communicate.
00:42:24.000Because when someone tells you, I know that if you give that $100, the Lord will pay you back tenfold!
00:42:31.000If you say that to someone who's stupid, they go, God, he knows.
00:46:52.000And what was really sad is that Tommy Davidson was the guy that they swapped with, and he has, like, a nice family, kids, and so they brought the angel over to his house, and the angel's, like, getting, like, bachelor parties and naked people in his house in front of his kids.
00:50:05.000But listen, man, if you're that guy and you have to be the guy that lets these girls fuck other guys because otherwise they're gonna get bored with you.
00:50:14.000You weigh 15 pounds and you're a fucking freak.
00:52:56.000But it's also like, there's that thing that happens when you become like a Gary Coleman or like someone who's a personal, you're a punchline.
00:53:03.000And you're kind of on the outside like that, where they get real freaky.
00:53:07.000They get, like, they get desperado and it all becomes one attempt after the next to try to get attention.
00:53:14.000You know, you see it a lot from reality stars that, like, their 15 minutes ends and then they start scrambling to try to, like, do new stunts and new different things.
00:53:24.000Do you remember that kid who was on The Real World?
00:53:53.000I pulled it out of the back of my ass.
00:53:55.000But the reason why I know it is because he was that guy that was like always doing exaggerated things and always being ridiculous to try to get attention.
00:54:05.000It's a lot of those fucking people, man.
00:54:07.000I mean, that's like what the reality show world sort of creates and produces.
00:55:00.000But This is where I think it's fucked.
00:55:04.000That guy became famous when he was a little kid.
00:55:07.000And I think when you become famous when you're a little kid, your odds of developing as an adult, like a guy that we can hang out with and talk to, just a normal, balanced person, they're almost fucking none.
00:55:21.000I've only met a couple of people that I know were famous when they were young that I could hang out with and talk to.
00:55:27.000Like Ricky Schroeder, he's one of them.
00:55:29.000Ricky's pretty goddamn normal for someone who has grown up in the public eye, but he has been kind of out of the public eye for a long time, and he's got a family.
00:56:14.000We got some more news on Corey Feldman.
00:56:19.000Two years ago, Corey Feldman told cops he was molested and named his abusers, but they did nothing because they were too focused on the Michael Jackson investigation, which seems suspect right there.
00:56:31.000He was abused by someone other than Michael Jackson?
00:56:33.000Yeah, which he said that he writes the relationship with Jackson was the healthiest in his life and that he never abused him, which, you know, whatever.
00:56:40.000But he said he was molested and he told the cops who molested him and they did nothing.
00:56:46.000Well, why would he say that and not just say who molested him?
00:59:53.000He drove it down to Fatburger on the Strip two nights ago, and such a crowd came that he had to get a flatbed to take it home because he didn't want to drive it.
01:04:03.000Each garden is like a different, like, oh, I'm in Japan now.
01:04:05.000But they also have one of the best art collections ever, including like the Blue Boy and a bunch of really famous paintings where you're like, oh, that's interesting.
01:04:13.000That's the, you know, the original Abraham Lincoln painting or whatever it is, you know.
01:04:17.000The LACMA, it also, what is that, a rock that they have there?
01:13:16.000If enough congressional Democrats realize they either stand with Obamacare and lose, or they listen to the American people and have a chance at staying in office, that's the one scenario we could do it in 2015. If not, We'll do it in 2017. Okay, cut right there.
01:13:31.000That is a guy who's barely keeping it together.
01:13:33.000He can't wait till that interview is over so he could run out of there and throw a dress on and put some makeup on and some women's shoes and just rip his underwear apart and just take it from behind.
01:13:44.000There's not a doubt in my mind that that guy can't wait until that interview is over for him to be himself.
01:13:51.000He's barely holding it back like a dam.
01:13:55.000Like a creaky wooden dam holding back the river of his gayness.
01:15:07.000I say Melissa, but Melissa Etheridge thinks, and I love her to death, but she also thinks that if she's on a plane, everyone in the plane doesn't have to worry because she will not be in a plane that crashes because she creates her own reality.
01:16:01.000Everything from street lights to fucking clouds.
01:16:04.000Everything is all a part of your absolutely spectacular and vivid imagination.
01:16:09.000Every experience that you have, every sensory experience that you've taken in your entire life, may in fact be a part of your brain trying to make sense of your imagination.
01:16:40.000Because I'm stoned somewhere in 2,000 years from now.
01:16:45.000But I was thinking how weird it is that we never...
01:16:49.000No one is born and remembers anything, you know, the first couple years usually, like at least one year.
01:16:56.000You know, like you're kind of just born and then you're slowly diluted into being, hey, I'm a live person, you know?
01:17:03.000And there's like this whole gray area where you just kind of...
01:17:07.000Yeah, at the beginning that you're just kind of like, I guess I... Well, there's a guy who has a theory about that, which is pretty fascinating.
01:17:15.000But what he said was that you are not really thinking, like thinking as we know it, does not exist until you learn language.
01:17:26.000And that until then, all you're doing is like having sensations and reactions to them, but you don't have reference.
01:17:33.000You know when your mom is there, because your mom gives you love, you remember she gave you love, so you look forward to it, you cry to get her, and then she's in there, and you're like, the love is coming.
01:17:41.000But you don't have an internal dialogue.
01:17:44.000You don't know that, like, oh, here comes my mom.
01:17:47.000Come on, I'm going to suck on some tit and get me some milk.
01:17:49.000That's why it's funny when you have a meme with, like, a kid thinking, because you know the kids don't really think like that, or kids' words.
01:17:57.000The idea is that once we develop a language, then we can put things into context.
01:18:03.000And then we have words for all these things like chair, floor, door, light.
01:18:07.000And we have this thing in our head like, man, someone shut that fucking door.
01:18:12.000I'm tired of seeing that light come through.
01:18:24.000Comes on you know talking about anything else that you have a point of reference for or a word for then You're really thinking so what a kid is doing is like experiencing a bunch of things but not thinking about it They're not like recalling like they see it again.
01:18:40.000They'll be scared like if the dog barked ah The dog freaked you out.
01:18:52.000They don't have that internal dialogue.
01:18:53.000So that's why they don't remember anything.
01:18:55.000That's why from the time where you're like a baby and you're newborn, what you really start remembering is once you hit like five, six, seven.
01:19:49.000Like, when is someone officially thinking?
01:19:52.000I think they think that I think it's like the idea is that at 48 days after conception the soul enters the body was like the Eastern mysticism view or some some ancient view of like when when a Fetus is viable when it becomes a person That 48 days and up until then it was just a bundle of soul or a bundle of cells takes 48 days to install the operating system Well,
01:20:48.000And I'm thinking, how interesting is it that something that I had no control of while I was dreaming was making me do stuff when I was awake?
01:20:57.000How interesting that, you know, the whole shutting off when you go to bed and you're dead and, you know, when you're sleeping, you just don't know what's going on.
01:21:05.000But having that world affect your awake world.
01:21:29.000It is weird, though, to answer your question, that when you dream, you can dream about somebody and then when you're awake, you can think about that person.
01:21:36.000I literally woke up and was like, man, I need to find out what this girl's doing.
01:21:50.000But that's just like an example of something that's happened recently.
01:21:54.000What other things, though, that you dream about and you don't even realize you had to dream about, but during the day you're like, you know what?
01:22:23.000Like, you, like, generally, a lot of times people, like, especially if you had a good time with that person, you only remember the good times.
01:22:29.000And then you get with them again, like you haven't seen them in forever, and you start talking to them, and you go, oh, I forgot, you're fucking negative.
01:22:36.000Still negative and they're still like bitching about everything and complaining and always looking at the downside of things.
01:22:43.000That's something that for whatever reason, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
01:22:48.000You know, we eliminate those poor memories and only want to think about the good stuff.
01:23:39.000Shel Silverstein came out the same time as Berenstain, and everyone just put the two together thinking it was the same Steen, and we just...
01:23:46.000It's just a memory, especially for a word that's an odd word.
01:23:51.000Berenstain is odd, but Berenstein is pretty common.
01:23:54.000There's deep Reddit posts about it now, and a top theory is that someone's gone back in time and changed.
01:28:31.000They're hardwired to kill anything that's limping, anything that's weak, anything that's in front of them, including some stupid fuck with a camera.
01:29:38.000Someone was going to, yes, he should be.
01:29:40.000Do you remember when they were saying that Santa Claus, they were doing a black Santa Claus and Megyn Kelly got really mad on Fox TV? Did you ever see that?
01:30:35.000In Slate, they have a piece on.com, Santa Claus should not be a white man anymore.
01:30:40.000And when I saw this headline, I kind of laughed, and I said, oh, this is so ridiculous.
01:30:44.000Yet another person claiming it's racist to have a white Santa, you know?
01:30:48.000And by the way, for all you kids watching at home, Santa just is white, but this person is just arguing that maybe we should also have a black Santa.
01:33:51.000Like and I don't know what the fuck can be done for that other than I've always suggested that Teaching kids martial arts in school would be a great way to avoid bullies because Avoid bullying because they would develop confidence and they would develop discipline and they would understand That that kind of shit is pathetic that running around and beating on kids like this kid that you're talking about and They actually not only do martial arts in school,
01:34:19.000they actually do the opposite of doing things like kickball or games where they're actually kind of promoting bullying.
01:34:27.000What's the one where we all had the lineup?
01:35:35.000Now we're going to throw a ball at you.
01:35:37.000You know Malcolm Gladwell, he's got a book called Outliers, about people that perform really well at things.
01:35:44.000And one of the things that he brought up in this book was how important being successful is, being born at a certain date.
01:35:53.000But a certain time a certain time of the year because if you're born at a certain time in the year you miss the cutoff and you're older than the other kids in your class and so like they were talking about like hockey players and that something about like it was like you know X amount of players a huge percentage of them were born later They had a rule or something,
01:36:17.000If you're born on January 1st or December 31st, you're playing with this group or that group.
01:36:21.000And you could be the oldest kid, or you could be the youngest kid, actually, if you're born on the 31st.
01:36:26.000All your friends are the day after you're in another league.
01:36:28.000Yeah, so if you're one of those kids that's like nine months younger than the other kids that are the you know They're all 12 right, but one kid is like nine months older or ten months older.
01:36:37.000That's fucking significant Really significant when it comes to sports and his theory is and it's it's really correct that the advantage that those kids have by being older Leads them to get better as well like one of the things about jujitsu This is a very important lesson for anybody who knows jujitsu because a lot of people don't like this aspect of jujitsu.
01:37:01.000Some people have this meathead idea that the way to get good at jujitsu is to go against the hardest guys, get your ass kicked, and that's how you learn.
01:37:09.000Actually, that's the wrong way to learn.
01:37:11.000The best way to get good at jujitsu is to strangle blue belts.
01:37:14.000You go and you find people that are just learning, but they're not as good as you, and you choke the fuck out of them.
01:37:20.000That's how you get really good at your technique.
01:37:22.000And people say, well, that's bullying.
01:37:23.000Well, It is important for the blue belt to, at some point, spar with black belts.
01:37:33.000Because you need to know that there's a higher level of proficiency, there's a higher level of skill, and then there's a shorter distance in between points that these guys are hitting.
01:37:43.000They're cutting the chase, they're capitalizing on very small openings, and they...
01:37:50.000They clamp down, and when they capitalize on these small openings, they get submissions quicker.
01:37:55.000So you have to know that there are guys that are better.
01:38:15.000Sometimes when you're doing a drill and I'll pretend to be resisting, I'll resist a little bit so that you strangle me because that simulates real life.
01:38:24.000It simulates how it would be and you're supposed to be building your muscle memory.
01:38:28.000But the real way to do it after you do that to get it really sharp is to practice on people with a limited amount of proficiency.
01:39:40.000One of my best friends growing up, the whole time we were playing sports, his birthday is a week after mine, but he's a whole year older than me, and so he played sports with us the whole time.
01:39:50.000He's smaller than me and doesn't look like he's bigger than all of us, but he would beat the shit out of every single person we would play, every sport, football, basketball, baseball, track, when we got to high school.
01:40:02.000For some reason, he was better than everyone in that, too.
01:40:05.000He was a ninth grader, and he was a starting freshman running back on the varsity team in the newspaper.
01:40:10.000But he was a whole year older than everyone.
01:40:14.000Fifteen years ago, no one was really engaging.
01:40:15.000Yeah, well, that's a big deal, because your body develops very rapidly.
01:40:21.000At a young age, and so these young kids that are older than everyone else in their class, they have this significant advantage, and that advantage, according to Gladwell, it accelerates them onto success as a professional.
01:40:34.000That because you have an advantage, you continue to get better, and you can exercise that advantage over other people, which sharpens your skills.
01:40:41.000Just like, you know, the idea of taking, you know, getting really good because you're strangling blue belts.
01:40:47.000It's not good for the blue belt, but it's good for you.
01:40:49.000Because you're already ahead of them, so you're going to get better and better and better and better.
01:40:52.000I was held back in third grade when my parents got divorced, and I was a little young, and that didn't help me at all.
01:41:50.000He had a thing talking about what the best year to be born was, like in the 20th century.
01:41:57.000And it was like in the early 1930s, because it was right after the Depression was over, and like right after World War I, So, like, there was a lot of jobs to be had, the economy was booming, and then you were at the front of the line for,
01:42:13.000like, this big baby boom that came on after that, before World War II. So you would be in positions of management, you would have these advantages.
01:42:20.000It's really interesting when you think about, like, how lucky...
01:42:24.000You can be or how unlucky you can be in certain situations and how that, like we're talking about bullying, can sort of flavor your whole life.
01:42:34.000Like an unlucky roll of the dice can flavor your whole life.
01:42:38.000And also he was talking about people that were born and that went through World War I. And he was like, well, even if you went through it, by the time you were out of the military, by the time you were trying to establish your life, you were already in your 40s.
01:42:50.000Like, you're already, like, trying to start a career at a time where most people are already clearly established.
01:42:56.000Really interesting when you really stop and think about, like, most of us don't engineer our lives.
01:43:01.000You sort of just make the best with what you've got.
01:43:06.000There's a lot of factors that play on behind the scenes that we really don't take into consideration when you consider, when you really think about, like, where you are in life.
01:43:16.000I mean, hard work and dedication and focus, all those things are hugely important.
01:43:21.000The ability to stick with something, the ability to put in the work, to get up, to be disciplined.
01:43:26.000But also, there's a lot of shit that you don't have anything to do with, man, that absolutely factors in.
01:43:33.000But then there's that bitch-ass part of people that go, well, he's only fucking...
01:44:09.000Like, Bill Gates used to work from, like, 2 o'clock in the morning until 4 o'clock in the morning or until 6 o'clock in the morning coding.
01:44:14.000His mother would try to wake him up, and he was always exhausted.
01:46:02.000Like, there's non-luck factors as well.
01:46:04.000Like, there's certainly luck involved in everything that happens.
01:46:08.000But there's a lot of other people that were trying out for that same show that were probably just as qualified as me, especially the first show, and they didn't get it.
01:46:27.000Luck in the fact that I had this background.
01:46:29.000But that's not necessarily luck either, because that was fucking hard to do.
01:46:34.000So it's like this black and white thing that people want to put into, you know, when you look at, like, this guy succeeded because of hard work.
01:46:44.000Maybe he succeeded because of hard work and what time of the year he was born and that he was older than the other kids in his class and he worked hard and he got there.
01:46:55.000There's a lot of fucking factors in everybody's success.
01:46:59.000There's a new drone prototype that Sony just released, and it can carry up to 22 pounds of cargo, and it can go up to 106 miles an hour and fly up to two hours.
01:47:18.000But there's a really cool video that I sent you, Jim, that it's showing it flying.
01:47:24.000It looks like a mini airplane, unlike the drones that we know of where they're usually like circular or like a square or something like that.
01:47:52.000Like, not just like for jets, like for fighter jets.
01:47:55.000Like, look at the whole front end of that thing.
01:47:57.000Why can't they fill that up with fucking passengers and have that big circle in the center be that helicopter thing that makes it just take off straight?
01:48:06.000There's another video below it that shows a little bit more of it flying.
01:48:14.000But they're thinking about selling this so it could be used for, you know, like Amazon and stuff like that and pizza deliveries and things like that.
01:48:23.000That's going to be a real problem, man.
01:48:25.000It's going to be a real problem for amateur pilots, for sure.
01:48:28.000I mean, if they fill the skies, if they become so many of those things, I mean, think about if these things become as common as, I mean, they probably won't, but as cell phones.
01:48:39.000And they're just flying around all over the place.
