00:00:00.000 The researchers say the finding is clear, but the reason behind it is still unknown.
00:00:04.120 On average, men were able to get about one meter, 3.3 feet closer than women before the
00:00:10.020 birds took off.
00:00:11.220 This pattern appeared consistently across Chechia, France, Germany, Poland, and Spain.
00:00:15.960 It also held true across 37 species.
00:00:19.160 So Malcolm immediately turns to me and he's like, we know exactly why this is the case.
00:00:24.680 Yes, this is the question that explains everything we're going to talk about today.
00:00:28.840 and i think proves without a doubt that this is not some malcolm manipulation of historical facts
00:00:35.320 you have been in rural latin america right yes take an image in your head okay you're driving
00:00:41.480 down a rural road you look out the side of a car okay you see somebody with a 60 pound jug of
00:00:48.760 something on their head oh it's a woman obviously yeah always a woman always always a woman you go
00:00:53.880 to africa you'll see this as well you go to let's be clear china too yeah was it majority women
00:00:59.500 doing the harder labor when you're talking yeah guys you do not know how brain cucked you are
00:01:06.100 if a woman has convinced you we just need to go back to the traditional way and i'll stay at home
00:01:10.560 and you do all this stuff because you're so strong look at your muscles could you open this jar for
00:01:14.920 me oh you see as a woman i could just never do anything would you like to know more hello simone
00:01:23.140 Today I'm going to talk to you about the most diabolical brainwashing mind trick that feminists and women have ever pulled on males in human society.
00:01:35.440 And it is that I will hear dyed in the wool males who identify as misogynist, red pill, post pickup artists, trans go out there and say, well, we need to go back to the way things used to be where women didn't work and stayed in the household and just cared for kids.
00:02:02.180 and i see their wives behind their fans with their villainous faces
00:02:07.240 oh my god their villainous laugh
00:02:12.940 their husbands brains their husbands believe that historically women didn't work
00:02:22.340 we must let misogynists think this was his eye all right that he came up with all right now he's
00:02:29.800 Don't you worry.
00:02:30.800 Okay, I know what to do.
00:02:31.800 You don't know what to do.
00:02:32.800 You talk, talk, talk all the time.
00:02:33.800 Do you want my answer?
00:02:34.800 Yes, I want your answer.
00:02:35.800 Vula, how is business?
00:02:38.800 Oh, woe to me.
00:02:40.800 My weak constitution, my weak mind.
00:02:43.800 As a woman, I am simply not fit for it.
00:02:46.800 Business is bad.
00:02:49.800 What's the matter?
00:02:50.800 What's happened?
00:02:51.800 She suffers.
00:02:52.800 She suffers.
00:02:53.800 She has to be at the travel agency alone all day.
00:02:56.800 While her kids are at home.
00:02:58.800 That's right.
00:02:59.740 So?
00:03:00.300 Take the kids with you to work.
00:03:01.840 You'll be with Taki.
00:03:05.860 That would be good.
00:03:07.020 That would be no good.
00:03:08.240 No good?
00:03:08.960 No good.
00:03:09.740 No good.
00:03:10.900 Because, um...
00:03:12.560 When a woman has her kids around, she just can't focus.
00:03:15.580 And that's why that no work.
00:03:17.700 No work.
00:03:19.620 I have your answer.
00:03:23.020 I will do all the work for you, and you stay home all day with the kids.
00:03:27.180 oh i i can't believe that wonderful and i saw this in the comments again recently we're like
00:03:38.780 guys were like well women held some roles historically outside the house but you know
00:03:46.360 they weren't like cobblers and they weren't like sailors and they weren't like you know
00:03:52.160 stonemasons and it's like all of that is true however the way that all of those businesses
00:04:00.260 were managed where if a guy was a stonemason or a cobbler or anything like that his books and his
00:04:09.560 inventory sourcing and his client sourcing generally would have been handled by the woman
00:04:14.640 but it wasn't even just that it was if you actually look at the statistics around female
00:04:21.160 labor in history women actually did if you're talking about hard labor the labor that fed the
00:04:28.380 family right women actually did the majority of the work over the vast majority of human history
00:04:36.400 if you go back to let's say hunter-gatherer society for example because we've been able
00:04:42.060 to study this in great detail women produced in terms of daily caloric intake between 80 and 60
00:04:50.400 percent of the calories that the family ate oh my gosh really this is 90 percent of human history
00:04:56.820 well this you know this also makes sense in other things where you see sexual dimorphism
00:05:00.920 for example women being much having much higher endurance and pain tolerance versus men who are
00:05:06.320 better like sprinters yeah or to word it another way the female body and psychology at an evolutionary
00:05:12.380 level are optimized for grueling labor while the male body and mind are optimized for warfare and
00:05:19.860 disposability neither are totally optimal but the idea that women are beautiful flowers designed to
00:05:25.960 sit inside all day caring for children far from any risk of manual labor is probably the greatest
00:05:33.080 feminist psyops of all time and completely ahistoric and yeah that just that that really
00:05:39.060 that implies millions of years of higher workloads and this is actually even true and we're going to
00:05:47.040 talk about like why this is the case because note people can be like but this just makes no sense i
00:05:52.300 thought women because they're the weaker they must do less work and it's like have you ever seen how
00:05:59.440 lions make this shit work the male lion sits around all day and the females bring him food
00:06:06.580 because that's the way human society is supposed to work oh god and if you go back to the most
00:06:13.360 trad iterations of human society let's go with the ultra orthodox jews okay in ultra orthodox
00:06:21.340 jewish society do men work no oh god don't work women work men spend all day studying
00:06:31.660 you actually see this in studying if you go to more primitive iterations of islamic society
00:06:37.220 out in the desert okay and we met you know a traditionalist muslim yes yes and the men
00:06:45.720 did not work that was considered like very offensive even the idea that a man would have
00:06:50.700 a job that is of course the purview of women to have jobs and you could say well malcolm surely
00:06:55.220 you don't want us to be like those those muslims or those jews and i'm like well actually even if
00:07:01.200 you go back to early european society most farming through most of human history was done by women
00:07:08.280 people are like what i thought men handled farming and it's like actually men only moved to handle
00:07:15.360 the majority of farming after one particular invention do you know what it was the oh what
00:07:23.020 was it called the i want to say spinning jenny because this is the first thing that like comes
00:07:27.840 to mind the plow oh great okay in regions where the plow is not used due to soil conditions and
00:07:35.880 stuff like that yeah the majority of farming is typically done by women in europe before the
00:07:41.280 introduction of the plow which happened a thousand a.d so pretty recently the majority of farming
00:07:46.860 was done by women unless you were like having slaves do it or something like that but even when
00:07:51.440 you were having slaves do it and you had like a big estate the majority of the family's work was
00:07:56.740 still done by women because they manage the family's household and finances which we will
00:08:01.240 get to and so if you're like wait okay if women were doing the majority of actual work throughout
00:08:08.620 human history in terms of calorie acquisition in terms of financial management what were men doing
00:08:14.520 what was the male role in human history why were women okay taking on this role that seems to be
00:08:22.340 because like imagine and and this is why i'm saying that like it's such a cuck thing to not
00:08:27.240 know this is is that you're literally going out there when the truth of human history is
00:08:32.280 women both manage child rearing and manage calorie acquisition okay and you're going out
00:08:39.260 there and saying no no no i'll do the trad thing and just do all of the labor and women can do
00:08:46.120 a quarter of what women ever did historically but sorry i i just i cannot i cannot get over
00:08:53.460 because we're gonna go over to how how somehow women psyops went into believing this we're gonna
00:08:59.100 go over traditional marriage structures how they developed that way because i'd like you were aware
00:09:05.140 of this when we were talking about this but i just think like a lot of guys they have this like
00:09:11.500 cargo cult of trad where they have this vision in their head of what a hunter-gatherer society was
00:09:17.880 like they have this vision in their head of what early medieval life was like and it allows them
00:09:26.360 to define themselves because if they they have this idea of like this is what men did back then
00:09:31.340 and this is what women did back then that that means that well if they just emulate this role
00:09:38.280 that they believe is a prehistoric role of what a man is, well, now it's fed into their identity.
00:09:45.140 Like I am man, man does X. Okay. So what did man actually do historically? Like what was the man's
00:09:51.520 actual role in a family? The man's actual role in a family. And I've talked about this as a way to
00:09:57.040 model your relationships. And increasingly I'm realizing that when I go out there and I can say,
00:10:00.940 here's an optional way to model your relationship. I've increasingly realized I need to stop saying
00:10:05.920 that people are too stupid and then they just model their relationships in stupid ways the ideal
00:10:10.560 way to model your relationship is in what we call a sword and shield relationship yeah that means
00:10:16.860 the woman is in charge of making sure the daily caloric needs of the family are met and that you
00:10:22.160 don't lose all your assets and this is what women mostly did on a historic basis the man is in charge
00:10:29.720 of moving the family's status upwards which means that he's in charge of high risk high reward
00:10:38.080 opportunities obviously if you're only familiar with stereotypes in history the two examples of
00:10:45.400 this that are going to come to mind immediately are going to be viking society where the women
00:10:50.980 would manage the farms and the men would go a viking and the men would go on these raids to
00:10:55.700 try to get lots of treasure to raise the family status right another example would be spartan
00:11:02.420 society yes they would manage the helots and they managed the farm and the men would go out
00:11:06.760 and perform their military duties and they'd come back and they might you know acquire stuff
00:11:11.620 you also had this in roman society where where men would go out now less so because roman took
00:11:16.920 from greek society and greek society is one of the few societies where women actually
00:11:20.700 almost did no actual work in the back of the house yeah one of the very few societies in
00:11:27.420 human history where women were actually basically just locked inside 24-7 yeah now one of the place
00:11:32.760 if you want to look into research on this and i think that she actually significantly understates
00:11:37.800 this was the nobel prize winning research by claudia godlin who showed the u-shaped pattern
00:11:43.320 in female labor which shows basically what we said before is that around and i think that she
00:11:49.260 actually gets some of her numbers wrong but she tries to look at historical actually i went back
00:11:54.060 over her actual data and her work is clearly misdated if you're only familiar with the little
00:11:59.320 cartoon she has a female labor you'd get this impression that female labor started to die out
00:12:04.920 in like the 1850s and then bottomed out in the 1910s and was never really significantly higher
00:12:10.380 than male labor participation but if you actually look at her data you can see that this is nowhere
00:12:15.060 near true also just a funny side note here have you noticed that her most modern woman is wearing
00:12:20.280 a hijab just see just so you know where she wants society going but yeah this this cartoon that you
00:12:25.940 may have seen of her work doesn't align with her actual data with the actual data shows which i
00:12:30.740 think even she is afraid men will look at history and realize they shouldn't be saying hey woman
00:12:36.760 get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich it's hey woman get in the field and cultivate me a
00:12:42.400 sandwich whatever but around 1910 is when or let's say the 1900s is when male wage labor really began
00:12:49.760 to pick up in any society um the idea that a man would leave the household and this is when things
00:12:55.940 began to fall apart because we're beginning at the end yes as society developed right okay well
00:13:01.700 now you've got the plow now you've got specialization now you don't have a woman gathering
00:13:07.040 now you don't have a woman on the farm you have a woman managing the books and the supply chain and
00:13:11.460 the the sales and the managing the storefront right like the the classic example i'll give is
00:13:16.420 okay you have a cobbler or you have a butcher or something like that so the guy learns the skill
00:13:21.360 he learns how to cobble he learns how to make the shoes he learns how to handle the the wrapping of
00:13:27.340 it and everything like that very complicated and the woman manages what women are disproportionately
00:13:33.000 good at which is interpersonal skills and bureaucracy and so she manages the you know
00:13:40.260 sitting behind the counter taking the money marketing the product managing sort of guild
00:13:45.840 bureaucratic stuff managing the the finances basically women did a sort of middle management
00:13:51.640 job and as males and this would be true like with whatever the profession was whether you made you
00:13:57.680 were a cobbler or whether you were a butcher or something like that like why wouldn't like you've
00:14:02.160 got to understand men during this period didn't have this idea of masculinity that you had right
00:14:08.240 they had an idea of masculinity but if you went to them or their wives and you said something like
00:14:14.660 actually the husband needs to manage all of this other stuff right both the wife and the husband
00:14:20.940 would be like but why like the husband is focused on the specialized skill that he needs to continue
00:14:30.360 to improve so that our family can make money i the woman have free time on my hands why would i
00:14:39.260 not be managing the things that allow my husband to focus on his specialty skill yeah right like
00:14:46.680 it would come off as like completely insane that the husband would waste time that they could
00:14:53.120 have cobbling or butchering or whatever their actual skill was to manage the shop to manage
00:15:01.000 the sales process to manage that i just would come across as like are you complete are you just
00:15:06.940 telling me to like waste money like there are kids like we're making this money for our family
00:15:12.960 and our kids because remember historically simone wouldn't become simone collins she'd become mrs
00:15:18.760 malcolm collins right like people really had a combined identity this idea of the woman's needs
00:15:25.400 versus the man's needs i wish we could bring that back by the way that you had to address someone
00:15:30.260 by like their their combined partner name going forward yeah well because you were one entity
00:15:35.280 afterwards it didn't make sense this idea of males and females having competing needs is a
00:15:41.060 modern concept that was created by the atomization of the family yeah but anyway so women had these
00:15:46.160 sorts of roles and then men and and keep in mind these sorts of roles were roles that women were
00:15:51.220 relegated into after all of the domains that women used to specialize in were taken away from
00:15:57.160 them like in farming the reason why women stopped being the majority of farming labor after the
00:16:02.340 invention of the plow is the plow required more brute strengths so men were able to take it over
00:16:08.160 but also keep in mind in a in a society historically if you can be like okay but then why would society
00:16:15.000 structure themselves this way like it why would societies have women be the majority calorie
00:16:20.880 income generators right like what the heck were men doing if women were doing this right so if
00:16:27.960 they were not out doing the high risk high reward thing what why were men doing high risk high reward
00:16:34.140 martial adjacent activities it was because women suck at war okay we're really not good at it yeah
00:16:42.300 that's what men were training on and this also comes to hunter-gatherer societies so in hunter-gatherer
00:16:48.420 societies and and again the manosphere always freaks out about this because they don't actually
00:16:53.260 read the research leftists will say things like well actually you know when you look at large
00:16:58.000 studies like andreessen et al 2023 women hunted in 79 to 63 of foraging societies so this is
00:17:07.600 hunter-gatherer societies and so they're like whoa of course women wouldn't go on a mammoth hunt
00:17:13.020 and it's like yeah that's true what were women hunting in these societies okay because they
00:17:20.020 weren't hunting what men were hunting in these societies men were hunting things that would
00:17:25.220 prepare them for war were allegories for war because you had to defend your territory this
00:17:32.020 is why the male lion lazes about all day okay what women were hunting were things like squirrels and
00:17:39.040 bunnies and mice they were hunting a completely different type of game it was low stakes yeah
00:17:46.080 yeah low stakes low risk low reward yeah yeah but today as a guy you're so like dichotomous which
00:17:55.260 is one of the things we try to break people out of on this channel like well there's hunting and
00:17:59.520 there's gathering and the moment you hear oh when a leftist says females were participating in 79
00:18:05.140 of the hunt like like that they hunted meat in 79 of hunter-gatherer societies why would women
00:18:11.960 arbitrarily not hunt bunnies when they saw a bunny right like when they're foraging why would they
00:18:17.900 opportunistically not make little traps for shrews and mice and stuff like that that might be around
00:18:22.960 the the campsite right why would they like just to arbitrarily be like no only men can touch
00:18:29.500 meat. That's a weird way to just sort of cuck your society, right? Like it makes no sense.
00:18:35.560 When you think about it a little bit, you're like, oh yeah, that would make sense. A society where
00:18:40.880 they demanded that men be the primary calorie getters, right? And women just stay at home all
00:18:46.480 day. Well, those men don't have as much time to train for war anymore, right? And if they don't
00:18:53.600 have as much time to train for war well what happens to those men in the long term they and
00:18:59.980 their way of life get eradicated so what about the societies where you don't see this in a historic
00:19:06.940 context like let's look at ancient athens right which is a actual historic counter example and
00:19:11.720 we'll go through other historic examples here right okay so athenian men because they did not
00:19:19.060 have women managing trade and finance and everything like that they managed it themselves
00:19:24.060 right but that meant that they didn't have time to learn how to war so how did athenian men fight
00:19:30.620 oh my god this is why we have democracy this is why yes they fought with the lower caste and
00:19:37.320 essentially slave labor that is what powered the triremes that maintained the athenian naval
00:19:42.740 hegemony um is is incredibly and and as simone was joking this is where we get early votes being
00:19:51.020 widely distributed because you know if you have triary members who you know are otherwise pretty
00:19:56.040 low caste and you can say well now you get to vote right well you get to vote on which high
00:19:59.140 caste person you want because no no vote no vote i'll tell you what yeah but that's where that
00:20:04.780 came from right is that the athenian male sort of citizen they they it's not that they never fought
00:20:11.240 Like you do see Athenians fight in history, but they leaned really hard on the lower caste in a way that other societies like Spartans and Thebes simply didn't.
00:20:23.780 But to continue here, let's go with, we've already gone over Vikings.
00:20:27.100 I assume people are pretty familiar with a Viking labor division, but let's look at medieval Europe.
00:20:32.820 I always crack up though with that, what was that comedic Viking show where like there was one woman who would go raiding.
00:20:39.420 yeah i mean they're like well of course she like she she rapes and pillages and everything just
00:20:46.760 like all the other ones and then like her husband's getting increasingly uncomfortable
00:20:50.060 you're really proud of your wife at least i mean phrya dove into that pillaging 100
00:20:55.960 even took part in quite a lot of the raping just yeah i don't think that happened very much yeah
00:21:05.040 and in terms of like female sailors there was that one famous female pirate who like
00:21:09.420 masqueraded as a man and and developed this ingenious way to urinate without showing that
00:21:14.820 she was a woman but yeah tough times anyway so in medieval europe the farmland was a joint
00:21:23.000 production unit but tasks were sharply gendered along lines based on physical demands risk and
00:21:28.440 compatibility with child care men handled higher risks drinks intensive field work plowing was
00:21:33.560 oxen so this is after the plow by the way is what i'm going over here mowing and threshing grain
00:21:38.300 women focused on lower risk, more reliable tasks that could be multitask near young children,
00:21:43.420 gleaning leftover grain for the harvest, clearing weeds, binding sheaves, making hay,
00:21:49.560 collecting wood, and sheep shearing. Harvesting itself was often shared. Women also manage
00:21:54.580 garden, livestock, dairy, poultry, and most crucially dominated textile production,
00:22:00.180 spinning and weaving, which formed the backbone of both household needs and export industry.
00:22:04.700 they produce cloth ale cheese and other goods for home use or local sale so it's important
00:22:10.640 if you were a farming family of the stuff you sold the majority of it was produced by women
00:22:18.720 yeah these are your cheeses people don't realize how important cheese was as an export product
00:22:24.000 it was so important that in medieval scotland you would pay your taxes in cheese like it was just
00:22:29.940 like this is the easily durable and i could just imagine the king's cellar full of cheeses right
00:22:34.720 like yeah it's the chocolate of europe before chocolate so you you they they would produce
00:22:41.300 that they would produce the cloths which was also an easy export product they would produce your
00:22:46.860 textiles which was an easy export product men were not producing these things and keep in mind this
00:22:52.460 is post plow this is post women no longer doing the majority of farming yeah so this is you would
00:22:59.640 artificially depressed yeah this this is this is women at like one of their low points in human
00:23:06.140 history one of their low regions in human history still doing a great deal of the labor
00:23:11.900 this idea again do not allow yourself to be cut into this belief that women just did child care
00:23:20.620 education they did not they did the majority of what we would today call labor men did
00:23:28.960 speculative ventures which is very different from like just labor and note they were not
00:23:37.580 building the because people were like well were they out there building architecture and new
00:23:42.680 houses and stuff like that it's like no because that is more in the category of speculative
00:23:47.020 venture to do something like that what do you need to do you typically need some form of loan
00:23:51.660 some sort of existing business supply these are high building a building is a high risk high reward
00:23:58.920 thing yeah building a wagon historically was very expensive that's a high reward thing okay
00:24:06.340 that requires some level of artisanal expertise those were what men did historically but keeping
00:24:13.240 the family alive is what women did historically and i'll note here i repeatedly see families
00:24:19.700 think they're doing something like new and progressive and converge back on this they're
00:24:23.540 like oh yeah the wife is like the nurse or the you know the stable job that makes a decent income
00:24:29.900 yeah the husband is the entrepreneur yes this is the i'd almost say it's like the normal structure
00:24:35.620 among most of our friends in in relationships totally yeah yeah wife has like a w-2 steady job
00:24:42.600 husband does something risky for sure yeah as historian jane whittle noted by the way
00:24:49.800 drawing on coroner roles women's accidental deaths were overwhelmingly domestic or village
00:24:55.320 based 61 percent now i would note that what's really interesting there is you can say oh that's
00:25:01.220 huge women only died within the village at 61 percent of the time now keep in mind what that
00:25:09.300 means 49 of women were dying outside of the village why were women if women were like these
00:25:16.520 shut-ins during the medieval period 1300 to 1500 yeah this is from jane whittle's work why were so
00:25:22.660 many of them outside of the village specifically though they're accidental deaths so that's
00:25:28.980 unusual too well right but this means you know you're you're you're putting yourself at risk when
00:25:34.480 you go outside the village. I'm just pointing out that this happened. Now let's go to urban
00:25:42.040 settings. Oh, and this is where Simone's spicy information comes into play. Do you want to go
00:25:47.780 into it? Genetic evidence shocked you. Gosh, yes. No, no, no. I still have to post about it,
00:25:54.540 but there's been this mystery going around on X recently related to new research came out. Here's
00:26:00.820 one of the headlines covering it in science tech daily birds in cities fear women more than men
00:26:06.180 scientists don't know why a small but consistent difference in how birds respond to approaching
00:26:11.720 humans hints at hidden cues shaping animal behavior an international team of scientists
00:26:16.820 has uncovered an unexpected pattern in how city birds respond to people species such as great
00:26:23.500 tits. Why do they have such great bird names? How sparrows and blackbirds take to flight sooner
00:26:30.580 when approached by women than by men. The researchers say the finding is clear, but the
00:26:35.280 reason behind it is still unknown. The study took place in five European countries and involved male
00:26:40.580 and female participants matched for height and color clothing, walking directly toward birds
00:26:45.580 in parks and other urban green spaces. By measuring how close a person could get before the bird flew
00:26:50.820 away the team assessed what is known as flight initiation distance on average men were able to
00:26:56.140 get about one meter 3.3 feet closer than women before the birds took off this pattern appeared
00:27:02.560 consistently across all study locations including cecchia france germany poland and spain it also
00:27:09.920 held true across 37 species from cautious birds like magpies to more tolerant ones such as pigeons
00:27:16.980 so malcolm immediately turns to me and he's like we know exactly why this is the case
00:27:23.760 yes this is the question that explains everything we're going to talk about today
00:27:28.540 and i think proves without a doubt that this is not some malcolm hallucination or some malcolm
00:27:35.120 manipulation of historical facts there is really no other plausible way you could have gotten
00:27:40.820 gotten this and it's actually it's not surprising to me that scientists don't know this because
00:27:45.480 they're not historians and they don't study the parts of history that are hidden from people
00:27:49.680 but have you ever walked around an old European city yeah like Edinburgh walked around an old
00:27:56.820 European city like let's say Edinburgh is where I really notice this you will notice the second
00:28:02.920 or third stories where you have windows you will have these little nooks like right next to the
00:28:10.720 window that look like they're made for a bird to make a nest there yeah and you could say that's
00:28:16.920 really weird or you think how cute how cute they were they must have been getting eggs from these
00:28:22.540 nests and it's no that's not what these were used for what these were used for is the housewife
00:28:28.400 because remember i said that women hunt small gang men hunt big game they would build these into the
00:28:34.960 walls of their houses and birds would come and nest in them and they'd come and grab them and
00:28:39.660 they're young and cook them up and eat them it was pigeon door dash pigeon door yeah but it likely
00:28:46.420 wasn't limited to that it was likely part of all of life back then men did not do things during
00:28:53.320 this period like hunt down city birds women did and what we're seeing in this is women did
00:29:00.840 cross-culturally across europe across locations across species and to such an extent that it is
00:29:10.520 existentially baked into the dna of multiple bird species yeah so crazy it's so cool could
00:29:19.520 there not be stronger proof that women were actually at a extremely large level enough
00:29:27.580 level have an evolutionary impact disproportionately involved with the acquiring of basic proteins for
00:29:37.220 the family when it was not big hunts and and keep in mind like how well this fits into our wider
00:29:43.440 category so suppose you have like medieval european society or something and the man is out
00:29:47.580 there doing his artisan art artisan thing or out there trying to do some sort of a big deal or
00:29:53.840 something like that or building houses and he needs to come home and there needs to be meat on
00:29:59.080 the table right the woman is in charge of making sure that happens that was the reality of medieval
00:30:05.340 society not what you have been told is the reality of medieval society and we're seeing it here
00:30:11.220 in the dna but you could say okay but what about the nobles okay certainly if we're talking about
00:30:19.380 like the medieval to early modern 1100 to 1700s the noble women stayed at home as delicate little
00:30:27.540 flowers and didn't do any labor and the men did all the labor it wasn't surely in that group the
00:30:32.880 women did the majority of labor labor and the mid did the majority of status and crewing activities
00:30:39.060 so no woman's core roles were high risk high return unfortunately that's just not the case
00:30:43.760 specifically what the men did was military service crusades tournaments court intrigue
00:30:49.180 and warfare to defend and expand lands gain favor and seize territory and and men were often absent
00:30:55.480 from their house their property and their investment from years at a time a man going to
00:31:02.160 war during this period meant being gone for like half a decade that's what it going on a crusade
00:31:08.100 mean that you could be gone for a decade women were managing most stuff and if they weren't
00:31:14.260 managing it beforehand like you can be like oh well when the man was home the man managed most
00:31:19.760 of the things and it's like no the woman was subservient to the man but the woman still did
00:31:23.500 the majority of the work it would have been stupid not to do it that way the woman and the man both
00:31:28.680 know that the man could at any time disappear for a 10-year period and yet the woman has the man do
00:31:33.620 most of the labor so that he has a teacher in like a a few days or something or a week or months
00:31:38.320 before he disappears like what are you that would be so stupid especially when you consider that
00:31:43.100 most activities and tasks the woman would need to know would be highly seasonal and so the man would
00:31:48.180 not be able to teach them with enough time before they left on military duty they just doesn't make
00:31:53.620 any sense by the way by just by the way that they were called doos or ducats the the things that
00:31:59.580 caught the pigeons and they were common enough they're like they were so common that sometimes
00:32:06.240 basically like the local agricultural communities would get really angry about them because the
00:32:12.400 people in cities would actively cultivate like pigeons you know especially because that was like
00:32:17.560 your your source of food if things got kind of lean so you wanted to make sure there were lots
00:32:23.180 of pigeons because then you would have something to eat like when the winter came but then in the
00:32:27.820 nearby agricultural communities they would eat the crops and so there was this this inherent
00:32:32.720 conflict between manor houses and also urban dwellings that had these ducats in them and the
00:32:39.100 people in in farmlands because they're like dude stop the pests i hate this this is really annoying
00:32:44.060 versus if you're like this is my dinner i'm like yeah yeah yeah yeah like anyway so what did the
00:32:52.860 women manage in european nobility so they manage the day-to-day estate economy so you've got to
00:32:59.680 keep in mind that's most of the daily work of a noble is is managing the estate's economy the
00:33:05.280 servants and the the stuff and the finances and the management and the food coming and going and
00:33:09.620 there's a lot going on they also oversaw agricultural production of the estate men did
00:33:15.520 not do that that was a woman's work on an estate they collected rent and taxes oh you thought the
00:33:20.860 man was no that was a woman because again the man may have to disappear at any moment yeah they
00:33:25.440 monitored tenants and goods handling household finances budgeting directing servants handling
00:33:30.940 hiring and firing ensuring food security and they also ran when husbands were away defense and legal
00:33:38.340 affairs coroners and mineral records show women's work was overwhelmingly internal slash stable
00:33:45.600 while man's was outwardly slash risky okay so let's go in to things as they shifted or we can
00:33:54.620 go a bit cross-cultural here where do you see well i already talked about the hoe difference
00:34:00.960 so basically if you're doing hoe or shifting based agriculture women typically dominate that
00:34:07.580 and if you're doing plow-based agriculture if you're wondering where plow-based agriculture
00:34:12.720 never really dominated here you're looking at sub-sahara africa and parts of southeast asia
00:34:17.660 and latin america and in these areas women still do the majority of labor is this why women are
00:34:24.060 called hoes i don't know but i'll tell you this if you're like come on women don't do the majority
00:34:32.580 of hard manual labor in pre-plo societies and i'm like okay have you ever been to latin america
00:34:39.040 and people are like yeah i mean i i guess i've been a little bit in latin america i'm like did
00:34:44.020 you ever drive in any rural region and people are like well of course you know i've been i'm a
00:34:48.840 worldly person and i've been like okay so when you looked along the roadside and you saw people
00:34:54.680 carrying 60 pound jugs on their head which which gender was doing that
00:34:58.740 sorry no it actually is in reference to a hoe so the yeah hose women were called hose because they
00:35:10.180 some historians note that in early america free black women doing farm labor were sometimes
00:35:15.400 dehumanized and literally called hose as if they were just tools which connects the word to racism
00:35:21.140 and slavery as well as sexism but it also shows that in early freed black society women did the
00:35:26.380 majority of the farm labor when it was done because yeah because they did the work with
00:35:30.220 the hose oh my god ah oh my god anyway sorry carry on no but simone i'm trying to get you
00:35:36.340 to grok this you have been in rural latin america right yes well take it in urban take an image in
00:35:42.780 your head okay you're driving down a rural road you look out the side of a car okay you see
00:35:49.140 somebody with a 60 pound jug of something on their head oh it's a woman obviously yeah always a woman
00:35:55.360 always always a woman okay yeah people want to say oh in these primitive societies it's men who
00:36:03.020 are doing all the manual labor all of the hard labor and it's like this is factual all the
00:36:08.760 farming exposure people have had like in developed countries is post-industrial farming where like
00:36:13.740 yeah i mean my evoked set of like you know my ai generated image in my mind of you know farm is
00:36:20.580 like a man on a giant tractor that costs like a million dollars you know five hundred thousand
00:36:24.660 dollars yeah obviously well and i think that guys also get it wrong where they're like well
00:36:31.140 men are stronger therefore that means that they did the more grueling manual labor
00:36:40.240 when if you have actually been to many developing countries what you will see is the most grueling
00:36:49.000 manual labor where pure strength isn't what's at play here is predominantly done by women and
00:36:56.440 again when we talk about in latin america you see them carrying this huge things of water on the head
00:37:01.920 the huge things of food on their heads on the the giant packs if it's not on their head you'll see
00:37:07.880 the like the beleaguered the woman who's like clearly in her early 30s but like looks like
00:37:13.800 she's like 55 or something with the giant backpack on going across the little trail or whatever
00:37:19.820 you go it's not just latin america you go to africa you'll see this as well you go to let's
00:37:25.060 be clear china too yeah i've actually spent a lot more time in rural like countryside china
00:37:30.200 and japan actually then was it majority women doing the harder labor when you're talking yeah
00:37:35.200 guys you do not know how brain cucked you are if a woman has convinced you we just need to go back
00:37:42.800 to the traditional way and I'll stay at home and you do all the stuff because you're so strong.
00:37:47.440 Look at your muscles. Could you open this jar for me? Oh, you see, as a woman, I could just never do
00:37:54.220 anything. Meanwhile, these very same guys have been to Latin America, looked out a car and been
00:38:00.920 like, oh, it's weird that women are doing all the manual labor in this society. I wonder what the
00:38:04.860 men are doing. Nothing. That must be a strange, strange, primitive coincidence. We need to go
00:38:11.640 back to this we need to go back to a world where women raise children and do the labor just like
00:38:17.600 i've structured in my family people are like that is how women because remember how guys are always
00:38:27.220 like women are hypergamous right and so how does hypergamy really work right i'm gonna grab meeting
00:38:36.120 dance what was that supposed to be well no it's it's it's men doing the spaz oh okay
00:38:41.480 women and it's like okay so if women are hypergamous okay they want a partner who is there
00:38:47.940 better okay intellectually in terms of status in terms of physicality whatever yeah why did that
00:38:55.500 work historically because the women did the labor to justify their worth to the genetically superior
00:39:03.100 male i'm not saying that's the way our relationship is structured i'm just saying everyone knows it
00:39:11.680 malcolm it's fine they've already said it many times the grateful woman who wants to do the
00:39:19.060 labor who is excited to do the labor and there are a lot of women like you guys would be surprised
00:39:25.600 when a woman hooks into a guy who she thinks is hypergamous to her the amount of effort she will
00:39:31.660 put into holding on to that guy and if you're just like okay we're not playing any games it's
00:39:36.160 about labor you put a 60 pound jug of water on your head you walk 30 miles a day go and she's
00:39:41.740 like sir yes sir yeah she's sorry yes thank you this is the way i wanted to live yeah which is i
00:39:50.580 think it's another reason why our culture is so toxic in that it it would demean any woman for
00:39:55.620 like accepting that frame admitting that to herself like the successful framing presented
00:40:01.500 to women is okay well now you know if you like a man you need to pretend that nothing he ever
00:40:06.300 does is impressive that you will never do any work for him ever etc etc that any any work you
00:40:11.860 do is an imposition and basically a crime against your entire gender and society it's it's really
00:40:17.880 messed up yeah so let's go to a few other societies here so you can see that this is not
00:40:24.360 just a european phenomenon of anything are you hose was it all i need was that my god literally
00:40:31.660 named after hose okay so if you go to west africa women have long dominated market trading and local
00:40:38.800 commerce in the region giving them significant control of household budgets credit networks
00:40:43.000 and economic decision making in ghana market queens elected female leaders market queens
00:40:49.000 for specific commodities, food, good, textiles. They regulate prices, resolve disputes,
00:40:55.080 organize self-help groups, and wield political economic influence. This includes mediating with
00:41:00.720 authorities and ensuring food system stability. If you contrast this with men who do hoe-based
00:41:07.340 farming, men often handle the initial land clearing for certain crops, while women prefer
00:41:13.540 the ongoing labor intensive but lower risk tasks of plowing weeding harvesting and processing
00:41:19.760 plus the dominant role in marketing the surplus men were involved in higher risk external
00:41:25.920 activities like hunting fishing and long haul trade or craft production so keep in mind again
00:41:31.640 you're seeing this here what do men do it is higher risk things higher artisan training things
00:41:38.380 women do the lower risk things and the more economically focused things again i'm i'm i'm
00:41:45.300 saying you need to alter your perception of what is a male and female role in the economy
00:41:50.200 not saying that you need to take on a women's role you just happen to have been wrong about
00:41:56.120 what the woman's role was yeah and i was really surprised because we have like pretty educated
00:42:00.480 fan base and it made me realize that even within the educated world how look they probably knew
00:42:05.880 but forgot because i would just say the psyop is so in far in the other direction it is just
00:42:11.420 memory hold i don't think this is about ignorance it's about repeated blunt force of propaganda in
00:42:17.680 the other direction yeah it's feminists go out there and they're like women were vikings and
00:42:22.320 women hunted mammoths and women and so when they hear something like women were involved in you
00:42:28.420 know in in hunting meat and like 70 of hunter gatherer societies they just throw it out because
00:42:32.480 they're like oh that must be biased scientist nonsense right and then they read the fine print
00:42:37.440 and it was mice and rabbits and squirrels it's like oh that makes sense right like the basic
00:42:44.600 kind of meats that would be easier to get on a daily basis to restore the nutrition that they
00:42:51.480 needed and it's like and this is how hypergamy worked traditionally and it's like oh that's why
00:42:57.540 a man would choose a lesser woman because she was walking to and from with a 60 pound gourd on her
00:43:03.000 head you know like yeah yeah okay let's go to india okay so men again handled plowing irrigation
00:43:13.000 and market sales so this is one where women handled more market stuff women perform lower
00:43:18.660 variance work like sewing transplanting weeding harvesting gleaning post-harvest processing plus
00:43:25.440 livestock kitchen gardens and household budgeting they contributed to 70 of agricultural labor in
00:43:31.500 many regions so again they're still doing the majority of agriculture these are also keep in
00:43:35.940 mind like on our episode on divisions of labor and household and what women report enjoying more
00:43:40.120 these are things that women still enjoy in surveys these are the types of activities women enjoy
00:43:47.400 these are also more bureaucratic activities more routine activities very predictable activities
00:43:51.660 and you see this also in like the lower rates of female entrepreneurship women on average are just
00:43:57.320 that we don't like the high risk high reward it's very stressful like i know you're constantly
00:44:01.600 trying to loop me into like your vc stuff it freaks me out and you're constantly frustrated
00:44:06.200 with the fact that i'm like oh yeah you don't fully check the product beforehand you don't
00:44:12.120 fully you know you're just like i'm gonna do the performative minimum when it comes to high risk
00:44:16.340 reward yeah because i find it extremely stressful and aversive versus like the routine stuff which
00:44:23.780 would literally drive you to madness or if not send ambulance you you you know i i can do that
00:44:31.100 and be very happy with it by the way for the people who want to use a super search feature
00:44:34.900 feature on our fab it can be used on things like episode because every one of the models that runs
00:44:40.200 on it has the capability of searching the internet so you could put something like the url of this
00:44:44.500 episode in and been like is this accurate what's accurate what's not accurate which is pretty it's
00:44:49.120 really well done it's really well done and not just that i mean i do encourage you if you're
00:44:52.660 listening to this and you're like i just do not believe this i think this is urban monoculture i
00:44:56.520 think that this is seriously put it into an ai or something right like i do that before any episode
00:45:02.580 goes live just to look for errors that may be in the episode yeah because i take it very seriously
00:45:09.200 that i'm getting you guys factually accurate information yeah and it is yeah important that
00:45:15.520 we actually make a society that works instead of relying on some weird cargo cult of the past right
00:45:20.860 yeah so what about the indian elites elite men pursued military conquests court politics and
00:45:27.640 imperial administration again all high risk high rewards whereas rural women in the zina secluded
00:45:33.040 women's orders exercised real economic and managerial authority administering large jagir
00:45:39.400 estates revenue land controlling finances and salaries patronage networks trade and even
00:45:46.200 intelligence slash diplomacy figures like nor haran and haran began managed commercial enterprises
00:45:53.120 and household governance as a parallel administrative node the zena had its own
00:45:57.940 female officers dragas twitters and something accounts that operated as an economic hub
00:46:02.860 so again you see the exact same pattern this is not just like one culture if we're going to go to
00:46:09.120 asia here if you're talking about the imperial confucian china min operated the outer sphere
00:46:14.540 scholar official examples so this was like intense high stake competition for status and wealth
00:46:19.860 bureaucracy board and trade trade this is one of the few areas where min really dominated the
00:46:24.580 bureaucracy but this is because it was an imperial bureaucracy and then highly institutionalized
00:46:29.280 failure meant a loss of prestige plus lower elevation of the family women were confined
00:46:35.920 to the quote-unquote inner sphere managing household finances education of the children
00:46:39.460 silk production food processing and daily budgeting confucian texts such as record of rituals
00:46:45.700 explicitly divided the roles men external public women internal domestic so i i think that this
00:46:52.260 is really cool here where you can see even if you're talking about these incredibly like
00:46:55.620 confucianism is considered very sexist and it's still like yeah well women manage the household
00:46:59.900 of course right like duh if you go to feudal edo japan men samurais the warfare class did duels
00:47:09.400 loyalty lords political maneuvering whereas women again govern the household financial management
00:47:15.240 budgeting and even gave their husbands allowances which we see in the historical record
00:47:20.700 they did child education silk cotton production and protected family honor though less so they
00:47:26.720 learned reading writing local administration etc and wives often like in europe ran the estates
00:47:33.240 during the male absence now if your wife has been running your estate during your absence not only
00:47:38.860 again do you need to prep her for doing this but you can be like okay but after the men came back
00:47:41.940 and they knew the wives could do it didn't they take over again and it's like no because they were
00:47:46.560 the dominant member of the household and if you're the dominant member of the household and the
00:47:50.520 other person can do something competently you don't just take the work back i'm i'm sorry if
00:47:55.860 that paints men in a bad light but that is the reality of actually being a dominant member within
00:48:01.600 a household so let's go to colonial america all right because people can be like well this isn't
00:48:07.820 the american tradition is it men focused again on high-risk work they did clearing land which we
00:48:15.360 have a lot of stuff from and they did some hunting a lot of politicking like men were really focused
00:48:21.440 on like john and abigail adams the classic american power couple yeah really good if you're
00:48:27.960 not familiar with john and abigail adams abigail managed all of the investment all of the estates
00:48:33.080 all of the hiring and firing all of the everything and john went to do the historically important
00:48:39.580 stuff of setting up the american nation there's also artha washington too yeah i mean this is like
00:48:44.180 this was the format it was the format it was the format women made sure that the man had their
00:48:51.780 allowance and the man made sure that the woman's name would be mentioned in history okay that is
00:48:58.140 the difference between the two roles that is the way simone and i structure our relationship and
00:49:02.540 this is the way i now i'm just going to straight out and say it is the better way to structure
00:49:06.380 relationship now that i see how ubiquitous it is throughout history and that any other mechanism
00:49:11.520 for structuring relationships has largely been experimental in short term like male wage labor
00:49:17.000 for a female who sits at home all day and and mind you even at the height of that particular
00:49:22.300 experiment like the 50s all of the women were out of their mind on drugs and going crazy right like
00:49:28.660 it wasn't working okay it may have had some like veneer of working in like hollywood but if it
00:49:36.820 worked we wouldn't have needed all those benzos no for sure it wasn't working it was not working
00:49:41.500 coked out of their mind they were benzoed out of their mind they barely had any idea what was
00:49:46.200 happening because you cannot take a smart intelligent person and say here stay at home
00:49:50.420 do nothing all day right like that to you up okay what about women women did well we don't even need
00:49:57.220 to go into it you've basically gone over martha washington abigail adams i hope most americans
00:50:03.580 are fairly aware of those stories and what those women did and and they were not considered
00:50:07.640 exceptional for their period nobody was like oh abigail adams what like a weird lesbian she is
00:50:12.440 for managing the estate or something right like cottagecore lesbian abigail adams with all the
00:50:18.400 children somehow but whatever again if you go to the backwoods you go to the frontier lifestyles
00:50:23.380 i mean i'm sure everybody is aware how much labor the women did in the frontier america right like
00:50:28.080 are you not like do you not know that women basically managed everything except protecting
00:50:32.840 the property and plowing and clearing fields so like i assume it's like people are aware of this
00:50:39.860 they just don't reflect on it i guess i'm a little like like it just it goes it runs so contrary to
00:50:49.700 the popular narratives i guess like i think it's i don't know i don't know and here's the funny
00:50:56.960 anything is also that there was no there was no cleared the land there was no there was no
00:51:03.100 feminist argument against this weirdly right when women complained about things and you didn't even
00:51:09.060 a very you know unflattering to women episode on women who hated men who were early feminist
00:51:13.340 activists this was not a complaint they were not like man i'm so angry about the fact that i had
00:51:18.380 to do all this work and that i have to do all this work no but it was like it just comes naturally to
00:51:22.860 women are workhorses because family to get to say a lot like right that's i think that's another
00:51:28.340 reason why this just doesn't come up is that there's no there was never really a narrative
00:51:32.120 to it and that now the narrative is just so heavily on like any work that women do is considered
00:51:38.860 so unforgivable that the mirror like the fact that we have this concept of the mental load
00:51:45.260 they're like i have to think about things this is horrible like i don't know it's because men
00:51:53.640 look at history and they're aware so if we look at like colonial period it's like okay what did
00:51:58.440 women do okay so women did cooking baking preserving which is very important in terms
00:52:04.000 of like exporting long-term family life etc soap and candle making clothing making child
00:52:10.480 rearing but we're putting that aside because most people were aware of that gardening and
00:52:13.600 livestock, weeding, harvesting, milking, cheesemaking, and curing and often preparing of
00:52:20.180 pelts. So you hear about those things and you're like, okay, but how hard is every one of those
00:52:29.180 individual? Do you know how hard just milking and cheesemaking is? It is brutal. Do you know how
00:52:36.620 hard weeding is when you are manually weeding, not a garden. I don't know how many men have weeded
00:52:43.600 a garden which is brutal weeding an entire field to feed a family okay we are talking about
00:52:54.140 extremely serious amounts of labor here and and back-breaking labor brutal labor
00:53:00.400 okay let's keep going here then people are like okay but by the time the industrial revolution
00:53:08.680 happened 1790s to 1910s and here we're talking about like proto-wage labor surely women stopped
00:53:18.840 working and the answer is no actually in the early days of industrialization we still had women
00:53:26.160 working really heavily in fact we have entire like towns that were like female labor camps
00:53:33.900 basically especially women who didn't want to get married they worked really heavily but here's
00:53:38.900 where you're beginning to have married men begin to care for women at the beginning of industrialization
00:53:44.660 but this is a modern phenomenon and a phenomenon that never really worked and culminated with
00:53:51.660 drugged out women barely coherent okay women want to be turned into workhorses they want to be
00:54:00.320 labored and i'm just encouraging us to break this particular myth that somehow misogynists have
00:54:09.280 adopted and like let's go back to it and be like no no no no no no a woman's job is in the field
00:54:15.900 it's in the barn it's not just in the kitchen it's it's the children it's the education and
00:54:22.040 it's most other things as well and yeah but but very clearly it's it's predictable routine repetitive
00:54:28.860 at-home labor, which, you know, you make it sound so horrible. On the flip side of it,
00:54:36.740 it's this very, you know, cottagecore, cozy, hobbit-like, romantic life that I think a lot
00:54:44.540 of people crave, you know, and wish, you know, they want to retire to that. That is the dream.
00:54:49.740 Well, I mean, we can go back to this insofar as we have work from home again. If you look at
00:54:58.840 our structured relationship. What does Simone do? She does emails. She does taxes. She does
00:55:05.940 the bureaucratic sort of low risk work of managing employees, managing hiring and firing.
00:55:13.220 She manages clients. She manages all of that stuff. What do I do? I manage building new things,
00:55:19.480 right? I manage building out our fab. I manage building out like the new features,
00:55:23.380 like super search. I've got to work on the card game, which apparently was having some bugs.
00:55:26.640 i work on our vibe coding platform which you can use with the agents on the website
00:55:30.680 i i do our you know i'm not safe for work chat bot stuff on our fab.ai like wherever there is
00:55:37.220 work in terms of building stuff that is where i am where there is work in terms of maintaining
00:55:42.200 stuff that is where simone is our relationship could not be more radically traditional if you
00:55:48.800 trot which is i think really interesting and it's something that we should emphasize more in
00:55:57.040 interviews actually now that i think about it yeah it was it was never something we planned
00:56:00.960 to be fair it's just kind of how things shook out the natural roles of males and females and
00:56:07.220 if you operate with yeah because we heavily believe in leaning into our aptitudes and lower
00:56:12.820 token cost like the way we sometimes describe it is like look you know malcolm could make dinner
00:56:18.380 but it would cost him 58 tokens and it cost me seven. So I'm going to make dinner. I could
00:56:24.660 plausibly, you know, build some new startup, but it would cost me 8,000 tokens and it costs him
00:56:31.440 like, you know, 300. So let's go. Like it just, it's, it's so obvious over time.
00:56:38.820 Yeah. Well, I hope that this breaks the biggest myth that women still weave over the minds of
00:56:48.060 man in our society yeah that it's it's it's oh it's very much oh don't throw me into the briar
00:56:55.580 patch oh whatever you do don't make me stay at home and do nothing but child care and education
00:57:01.840 oh whatever you do briar fox whatever you do do not throw me into that briar patch for for people
00:57:08.960 who do not know this is from the story of briar rabbit and briar fox it's one of the jack tales
00:57:13.780 right no it was actually an adaptation of an african story but it's clearly was adopted to
00:57:19.580 a jack tale format because in the briar rabbit story sorry this is a completely different
00:57:25.020 tangent here it's a policy tangent briar rabbit appears much more like jack than he appears in
00:57:31.480 the african versions in the african versions he is a trickster god with magical powers
00:57:35.840 where what typically separates jack from any other figure like him is that he has no magical powers
00:57:42.700 he is not a god he just outwits his opponents and that's what briar rabbit does so he appears
00:57:49.220 much more like a jack tales figure and this would have been during the period where the slave culture
00:57:54.120 would have co-alided with the backwards culture so i think that that's where they picked it up
00:57:56.960 from nice but basically he's saying whatever you do don't throw me into the briar patch because
00:58:00.300 he's at home in the briar patch that's where he's safest is in the briar patch that's the easiest
00:58:03.860 thing for him but anyway love you simone i love you too go downstairs and cook me some of those
00:58:08.620 freaking mushrooms that you harvested golden oyster and then serve it to me because that is
00:58:16.640 that's my job kinky job that you have as a wife right yeah love you i love you too
00:58:25.960 you're the best how i'm so mean i'm so demanding no man we all we all asked for this that's the
00:58:34.460 that's the thing that's the thing and i love it and i love you i love you too see you soon
00:58:41.840 yes okay so how are you gonna cook these mushrooms you found for me in the woods
00:58:46.820 i thought of the of the ways i've seen them prepared that doing a cross-section cut and
00:58:52.080 then making mushroom steaks looked the most promising because then you could cut little
00:58:56.860 slices of it like it's basically like a slice of it you know people make cauliflower steaks by like
00:59:01.760 thinly cutting is that gonna is that gonna pair well with a actual steak yeah because you're still
00:59:07.080 just cutting small like bites of it are you gonna be able to cook them together that's not my plan
00:59:11.660 because i think that the temperature at which i would need to cook the i mean that i'm cooking
00:59:17.980 the steak at you you make a super super super hot cast iron skillet for for pan seared steak and then
00:59:23.280 for this you don't want to like burn it you just want to cook it through so what i plan on doing
00:59:28.640 is maybe using some of the drippings from the steak for the that sounds really good yeah yeah
00:59:34.440 because i like to render it in its own fat but i'll do that with an additional butter and then
00:59:38.400 we'll use that butter for the mushrooms while the steak sits because it's supposed to sit for 10
00:59:45.100 minutes to do whatever it does i don't know what it does settles i don't know i i treat all food
00:59:55.440 like it's a souffle and it's about to deflate if i don't eat it immediately after preparing so i
00:59:59.600 get super nervous it's like do you have letting steak rest anyway let's go all right okay what
01:00:07.200 are you looking at buddy i'm looking at these baby chicks oh do you like baby chicks are they
01:00:14.080 your friends? What are their names? Oh, this one's name is, um, this one right here is my
01:00:31.020 favorite one. He's so adorable. What is he called? He's called Cutish. Cutish? Yes. It's
01:00:39.880 good name buddy yeah he's my favorite he's my favorite because he's boring you're gonna wash
