00:00:02.860 Bada bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. 0.99

00:00:05.860 Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. 0.96

00:00:09.280 Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. 0.87

00:00:12.180 Hey, everybody.

00:00:13.480 Come on in.

00:00:14.120 Come on in.

00:00:15.180 It's time for Coffee with Scott Adams,

00:00:18.180 the best time of the day every day.

00:00:22.340 No exception so far.

00:00:24.100 I think we've got about 7,000 of them in a row,

00:00:27.540 approximately every one better than the last. It's quite a streak, and we're keeping it alive.

00:00:34.180 And today, all you need to be part of this great growing thing called the Simultaneous Sip,

00:00:40.500 some of the greatest people in the world, all over the world, about ready to lift their mug in unison.

00:00:47.740 Can't we all come together? Of course we can. We're going to do it right now.

00:00:51.180 We're going to model it pretty soon when everybody's doing a toast together.

00:00:55.580 Sure. That's when you'll know we'll all be together.

00:01:00.500 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or flask or a vessel of any kind.

00:01:06.900 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:01:10.740 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better,

00:01:18.260 not to mention your coffee itself or your beverage.

00:01:21.280 It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it happens now. Go.

00:01:25.580 So let me give you a little hypothesis.

00:01:34.240 I like saying hypothesis.

00:01:37.540 I might say it a few more times because it's a fun word.

00:01:41.720 And so my hypothesis goes like this.

00:01:45.460 The first part, I did not make up, okay?

00:01:49.640 So the first part, if it sounds smart, that's because somebody smart said it first.

00:01:54.620 It's not because it came out of my mouth.

00:01:56.740 And it goes like this.

00:01:58.540 The origin of dancing.

00:02:01.200 Did you ever wonder about that?

00:02:02.360 Why is it that humans dance and we coordinate dances, so we do group dances like line dancing and things where the whole group is dancing as one?

00:02:13.660 Where did that come from?

00:02:16.500 Why don't other animals dance together?

00:02:20.400 I think there are examples of you can get a parakeet to move to the beat, but that's it.

00:02:25.900 You can't get a bunch of parakeets to move together like they're dancing.

00:02:30.280 But humans, yes.

00:02:31.700 And the explanation I've heard, I wish I could attribute it because I don't know what scientists came up with it.

00:02:36.620 And it goes like this.

00:02:38.720 The humans were relatively, let's say, relatively weak compared to some types of animals.

00:02:46.120 Let's say a lion or a big predator.

00:02:49.840 Now, if you were a human and you didn't have physical abilities to fight a lion,

00:02:54.680 what could you do as a group to seem like you were big and scary compared to a lion?

00:03:01.440 Well, if you're by yourself, you might try to look large.

00:03:05.580 You know, put your hands up and stand up and try to make yourself look bigger than you are.

00:03:10.960 But suppose you were with the rest of your village or hunting party.

00:03:16.280 What would you do as a group to look like you were one big animal?

00:03:21.740 That's right.

00:03:23.100 You would move together.

00:03:25.060 If you could, in unison, move all as one so that everybody that the lion sees is moving in the same way.

00:03:33.440 They're all moving left, they're all moving right, they're all moving, lifting their arms at the same time.

00:03:38.840 What would you think if you're a lion?

00:03:41.320 You would say to yourself, I'm not fighting one tiny creature.

00:03:44.680 I don't know what that is, but it looks like it's one big thing.

00:03:47.820 So, dancing, and this was the hypothesis, which is not my own.

00:03:52.980 Somebody smart came up with this first.

00:03:56.080 The hypothesis is that people dance to look like they're together.

00:04:01.360 To look as though they're one unit and therefore more impressive than whoever they're up against.

00:04:08.100 You see this also in war.

00:04:09.720 In war, you see people, you see the group dressed together, they have a commonality.

00:04:15.840 So it looks like, oh, they're all just one big thing, it's an army.

00:04:20.240 But you also notice that music has often been part of the war process.

00:04:25.700 Usually drums.

00:04:27.240 Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. 0.97

00:04:29.200 Imagine hearing war drums from the other army.

00:04:33.280 Pretty scary, right?

00:04:34.220 You hear the war drum, and you see people moving in some kind of unison.

00:04:38.760 It's all like one big thing.

00:04:41.960 And so, I give you this further hypothesis.

00:04:46.820 There may be one evolutionary key to bring everybody together.

00:04:56.100 Now, you're not going to end racism because music is good.

00:05:00.140 But, the very act of sharing music with other people would, in theory, make you feel more bonded to them.

00:05:08.920 In other words, if all you did, be you black, be you white, be you Hispanic, or whatever else you want to be,

00:05:17.300 I would imagine that if you came together just to dance,

00:05:22.540 to enjoy the same music at the same time, and to move in the same ways at the same time,

00:05:27.240 I'll bet, I'll bet, that you could study and find that people's, whatever racial animus that they had would be less.

00:05:37.540 I'll bet that you could cause people to work better together, think better of each other,

00:05:43.820 consider the other simply an extension of yourself,

00:05:47.160 through the act of coordinated movement and dancing.

00:05:51.120 Which brings me to the simultaneous sip.

00:05:54.060 People ask me, is that nothing but an opener?

00:05:56.960 No, it's more than an opener.

00:05:58.660 It is designed to do several things.

00:06:02.360 One is to tell you how close I am to being done with the introduction, as I've told you.

00:06:07.160 But the other is that doing the same thing at the same time,

00:06:11.240 which you do with the simultaneous sip, or many of you,

00:06:13.960 does in fact bind you, not just to me, but to the rest of the audience.

00:06:19.760 And you become, you have a feeling of being part of something by the physical coordinated act.

00:06:26.280 It's similar to when you go to a sporting event and you do the,

00:06:29.460 you all stand up and, well, maybe some of you kneel,

00:06:33.300 and to do the national anthem.

00:06:34.920 And so, when you see the kneelers kneeling, when others are standing,

00:06:40.840 this really hits you in the evolutionary gut, doesn't it?

00:06:45.160 It feels, and you can tell the impact was so big,

00:06:48.920 it's a really basic rejection of the other.

00:06:54.140 Because if you're standing together, or kneeling together,

00:06:56.940 or moving together, or singing together, you're together.

00:07:00.800 But as soon as you're saying, if you move this way, I'm going to move this way,

00:07:05.280 that's as basic an insult, I'll say insult,

00:07:10.340 but I'll use that in the big sense of an insult to your biology as well as the flag.

00:07:16.620 It's just an insult to your basic, basic humanity, I guess.

00:07:22.440 And so you can see why that gets people going,

00:07:24.880 which makes it a very good protest, I've often said.

00:07:30.500 All right, moving on.

00:07:34.500 I did this, was it yesterday?

00:07:37.580 I tweeted around to ask you to see if you had been automatically unfollowed from Ambassador Grinnell.

00:07:46.680 So I had noticed this, I don't know, a year ago, that I had been unfollowed from him,

00:07:50.640 and I didn't think it was something I had done.

00:07:53.560 So I re-followed him, and then I asked other people a year ago,

00:07:56.820 hey, this happened to anybody else.

00:07:58.980 And it was a lot of people.

00:08:00.900 So I asked again, as a follow-up, how many people had been unfollowed.

00:08:05.580 Now, I don't know if it's just a continuation from a year ago,

00:08:09.700 and some people noticed a year ago, some people didn't notice until now,

00:08:14.140 or if there's some ongoing issue.

00:08:17.260 But it was a lot of people.

00:08:19.780 A lot of people said they were following him, and now they're not.

00:08:25.600 And that was just one tweet from one person.

00:08:27.940 You know, even with all of the people who follow me,

00:08:30.420 I wouldn't expect that many people to say that they had been automatically unfollowed.

00:08:36.480 It doesn't pass the sniff test for some kind of an accident.

00:08:41.340 So then I thought to myself, well, if there's some kind of a pattern,

00:08:45.060 we should see if it's at least not limited to one kind of account.

00:08:49.900 Because, you know, there could be something about one account that is not common.

00:08:53.760 So I asked people to check if they had followed Congressman Matt Gaetz.

00:08:58.680 The theory here is that one of the things that makes Ambassador Grinnell interesting

00:09:04.180 is that his Twitter feed is more effective than most.

00:09:08.560 In other words, he's really good at tweeting, good at making a point,

00:09:14.240 and therefore good at supporting the administration.

00:09:17.260 Likewise, Matt Gaetz is in that higher level of communicators.

00:09:22.500 And I thought, well, if there's something happening with Grinnell's account,

00:09:26.280 you'd also see it in Gaetz's account if there's something going on.

00:09:31.600 Now, again, that's not any kind of confirmation or anything.

00:09:34.360 It's just what you'd expect.

00:09:36.440 And so I did the same tweet with Matt Gaetz's account, and what do you think?

00:09:41.920 Massive number of people in the comments said,

00:09:45.100 what the heck?

00:09:47.740 I was following him, but now I'm not.

00:09:50.260 So I don't know what this means.

00:09:55.220 And as I've said before, I might be the only person in the world

00:09:58.140 who is willing to say that this is not some intentional Twitter thing.

00:10:02.740 We don't know.

00:10:04.260 It's a mystery.

00:10:05.800 I can tell you that Twitter doesn't know,

00:10:09.300 or at least doesn't offer an explanation,

00:10:13.860 and I have looked into it.

00:10:15.100 I've looked into it twice that I know of

00:10:17.440 and couldn't find any reason for it.

00:10:21.240 Now, of course, because you're all skeptical and cynical,

00:10:26.520 you can say they know exactly what they're doing.

00:10:29.160 But I would put out there this possibility,

00:10:32.560 that there's no reason to assume

00:10:34.580 that it's coming from an internal, intentional Twitter decision.

00:10:42.160 There's no evidence of that.

00:10:43.320 Because it could as easily come from the outside.

00:10:47.400 Meaning that somebody on the outside has an insider

00:10:50.320 who does something for them.

00:10:52.240 That's really more like coming from the outside, right?

00:10:54.640 They just might have one insider who has access to something.

00:10:58.280 Or it could be a direct hack.

00:11:01.040 It could be that literally nobody who works for Twitter

00:11:03.520 had anything to do with it,

00:11:05.140 but they also don't know what it's about.

00:11:07.520 That's possible.

00:11:08.380 It could be just a hack.

00:11:09.880 It could be some kind of apps having control of it,

00:11:12.520 maybe not necessarily just TikTok.

00:11:15.880 But there are lots of apps that you give permission

00:11:18.340 to control your social media,

00:11:20.960 and maybe they're doing it.

00:11:22.540 And those apps in turn controlled by some malign influence.

00:11:26.940 So it's a gigantic question.

00:11:30.300 But what's interesting about this one is

00:11:32.400 it's so discreet.

00:11:34.040 You know, unlike the algorithm

00:11:36.340 where maybe it would be a little hard to know

00:11:38.100 if something's happening or not happening,

00:11:40.260 it would be the easiest thing in the world,

00:11:42.360 I would imagine,

00:11:44.040 to have some kind of a bot or program

00:11:46.420 that would just monitor the larger pro-Trump accounts.

00:11:51.280 And then just to be careful,

00:11:53.020 you would also monitor the largest,

00:11:55.280 say, pro-Biden accounts

00:11:57.400 to see if they're having the same problem.

00:11:59.240 Because if it's across accounts,

00:12:01.280 it just doesn't matter who you are

00:12:02.560 or what you're saying.

00:12:04.100 You know, any big blue check loses people

00:12:06.840 and they don't know why.

00:12:08.300 Well, that would tell you it's one kind of problem,

00:12:10.260 more likely something about the system.

00:12:12.880 But if it only happened for one kind of people,

00:12:15.760 you would not be too surprised to learn that

00:12:18.300 in today's world.

00:12:20.180 That would tell you something else.

00:12:21.900 So I would think that somebody should be writing a bot

00:12:24.860 that could just check on who's following the big accounts,

00:12:28.280 might require buy-in from the account

00:12:30.860 so you can get that data.

00:12:32.300 I don't know how that would work.

00:12:33.860 But there's got to be some way

00:12:35.060 to objectively just graph this thing

00:12:37.160 and find out if it's really happening.

00:12:39.360 I don't think you'd have to be a Twitter insider

00:12:41.880 in order to track it objectively from the outside.

00:12:45.780 But that's just, that's an assumption.

00:12:49.040 All right, did you see the video?

00:12:52.360 This is my favorite highlight reel

00:12:54.160 from last night's big game.

00:12:56.640 And by the big game,

00:12:58.740 I mean anything that is happening in Portland

00:13:00.960 or around there,

00:13:02.680 anything Antifa is doing.

00:13:04.960 My favorite clip was Antifa

00:13:07.280 made a wrong turn into MAGA territory.

00:13:12.780 Now, if you haven't seen this video

00:13:16.200 and you like your videos of Antifa not having a good day,

00:13:21.520 you're going to have to watch this one.

00:13:23.260 Trust me, you're going to want to watch this one.

00:13:27.980 I don't condone violence unless it's against Antifa,

00:13:32.920 in which case I condone it totally.

00:13:35.300 Let me say that again.

00:13:37.760 If you're dealing with domestic terrorists

00:13:40.200 who are wearing masks

00:13:41.420 and threatening your property

00:13:43.500 and your way of life,

00:13:45.640 have fun, right?

00:13:47.000 Don't go to jail,

00:13:48.960 but you're not going to see me condemn you.

00:13:53.540 So I'll just tease it and say

00:13:56.620 that there were some locals

00:14:01.800 in a suburban neighborhood

00:14:03.340 who were not pleased

00:14:05.080 with the arrival of Antifa,

00:14:09.140 and I'm just going to say

00:14:10.380 it didn't go well.

00:14:11.740 Let's just leave it at that.

00:14:12.860 You have to watch it

00:14:13.580 to get the full entertainment effect on it.

00:14:17.120 But nothing would make me happier

00:14:18.880 than watching every single morning

00:14:20.640 when I wake up,

00:14:22.140 watching Antifa getting beaten up

00:14:24.460 by the police

00:14:25.160 and or local conservatives.

00:14:31.700 I must be a bad person.

00:14:33.440 I don't know.

00:14:34.420 Maybe I'm just a bad person,

00:14:36.280 because I'm not even going to pretend

00:14:37.880 I don't enjoy that.

00:14:39.580 I totally enjoy it.

00:14:41.060 I can't lie.

00:14:41.740 All right, let's talk about

00:14:45.200 Russian interference.

00:14:47.220 How long will it be

00:14:48.620 before you ever see an example

00:14:50.560 of some Russian interference?

00:14:53.000 It'll probably be long after

00:14:54.780 the result of the election.

00:14:56.620 But you know

00:14:57.420 there's going to be claims

00:14:59.540 of Russian interference.

00:15:00.940 Will they be as lame

00:15:02.180 as the 2016 attempt

00:15:03.840 that looked like a child's

00:15:06.000 high school project

00:15:08.020 to make bad memes

00:15:09.620 and not show them to anybody?

00:15:13.200 That's what the Russian troll farm did. 0.81

00:15:15.440 They made bad memes

00:15:16.620 that hardly anybody saw

00:15:18.580 relative to the population.

00:15:20.820 Hardly anybody saw them.

00:15:22.200 And they couldn't have possibly

00:15:24.020 made a difference

00:15:24.820 if you see them.

00:15:26.080 If you haven't seen them,

00:15:27.220 you say to yourself,

00:15:27.900 well,

00:15:28.640 they're probably KGB made 0.96

00:15:30.420 and it's the highest skill level

00:15:33.480 you can imagine.

00:15:34.680 You've got psychologists

00:15:36.440 and maybe every kind of science

00:15:39.540 they did,

00:15:40.140 they tested them.

00:15:41.300 Man, these memes must be...

00:15:42.940 No.

00:15:44.080 No, that's not what happened.

00:15:46.220 It was basically

00:15:47.300 some Russian with a crayon 0.78

00:15:49.280 and a computer

00:15:50.720 and they just produced crap.

00:15:53.980 And it's definitely

00:15:54.580 not scientific crap.

00:15:56.680 So until you see an example

00:15:58.920 of this alleged Russian interference,

00:16:01.780 the smart money says

00:16:03.040 it's happening

00:16:04.500 but not in a way

00:16:05.900 we care about

00:16:06.800 because it's going to be

00:16:07.980 so trivial

00:16:08.660 that's just stupid.

00:16:12.660 How about the story

00:16:14.580 about Trump

00:16:15.700 had his little

00:16:16.580 press conference yesterday

00:16:18.700 and Paula Reid of CBS

00:16:21.100 kept trying to talk over him

00:16:23.220 and insist on her question

00:16:25.600 even when she'd had her moment.

00:16:28.160 And then the president,

00:16:29.220 after several tries

00:16:30.440 to shut her up, 0.90

00:16:31.240 he just ends

00:16:32.340 the press conference.

00:16:34.020 Imagine being

00:16:34.900 all the other people

00:16:35.960 who went there

00:16:37.360 to do nothing

00:16:37.980 but ask a question.

00:16:39.800 Their whole day

00:16:40.920 was about the moment

00:16:42.960 they were about to get

00:16:44.080 to ask a question

00:16:45.000 on camera

00:16:45.540 and then Paula Reid

00:16:47.120 just ruined it

00:16:47.780 for everybody

00:16:48.340 by being a jerk. 0.93

00:16:51.520 Now I get

00:16:52.420 that you have to be

00:16:53.320 aggressive

00:16:54.340 asking the president

00:16:55.820 but if we watch this

00:16:57.720 as theater

00:16:58.320 which is really

00:16:58.960 the only way

00:16:59.420 to watch it.

00:17:01.020 How did the theater go?

00:17:03.200 Were you entertained?

00:17:04.740 Yeah.

00:17:05.820 Yeah.

00:17:06.200 I was entertained.

00:17:07.840 I was totally entertained.

00:17:09.280 When the president

00:17:10.160 walked out

00:17:10.760 I thought

00:17:11.220 ha ha ha

00:17:11.980 and I laughed

00:17:12.720 and I thought

00:17:13.660 nice move. 0.65

00:17:14.880 I'm totally entertained

00:17:15.760 by that.

00:17:17.660 Now

00:17:17.960 the anti-Trumpers

00:17:20.140 will of course

00:17:22.220 and have of course

00:17:23.080 tried to make it

00:17:24.020 look like

00:17:24.580 oh he's having a tantrum

00:17:26.380 he's a big baby

00:17:27.380 he can't handle

00:17:28.900 the pressure

00:17:29.540 you know

00:17:31.020 all the things

00:17:31.560 that you'd expect

00:17:32.160 him to say

00:17:32.680 but I gotta say

00:17:34.860 I think

00:17:35.840 at a gut level

00:17:36.940 that his walk out

00:17:39.040 worked.

00:17:40.540 First of all

00:17:41.320 it's compatible

00:17:42.160 with everything

00:17:43.260 he's ever told you

00:17:44.200 about anything

00:17:44.920 ever

00:17:45.360 which is

00:17:46.640 walk out.

00:17:48.660 If things aren't

00:17:49.580 going your way

00:17:50.300 you don't need

00:17:51.360 to be there.

00:17:52.700 You know

00:17:52.860 that would be true

00:17:53.500 in a negotiation

00:17:54.280 it would be true

00:17:56.040 in a press conference.

00:17:57.760 So you see

00:17:58.140 the president

00:17:58.640 of the United States

00:17:59.560 is standing up there

00:18:00.460 on camera

00:18:01.380 live on camera

00:18:02.720 in front of the whole world

00:18:03.720 and

00:18:04.920 for a moment

00:18:06.580 he thought

00:18:07.900 oh

00:18:09.020 I don't need

00:18:10.280 to be here

00:18:10.840 because if nobody's

00:18:12.440 listening to me

00:18:13.400 what's the point?

00:18:15.660 So he turns

00:18:16.460 and walks away.

00:18:17.520 It was one of the

00:18:18.480 most baller things

00:18:19.420 you'll see

00:18:19.900 because it was

00:18:20.980 perfectly appropriate.

00:18:22.080 You know

00:18:23.620 you could argue

00:18:24.220 you could have

00:18:24.600 handled it differently

00:18:25.300 but in terms of

00:18:26.020 theater it was

00:18:26.640 perfect

00:18:27.020 because it

00:18:27.840 was

00:18:28.280 to me

00:18:28.940 it played

00:18:29.380 as strong.

00:18:31.180 So

00:18:31.620 unfortunately

00:18:32.480 humans are so 0.99

00:18:33.320 simple

00:18:33.760 that we do

00:18:34.540 interpret things

00:18:35.360 as either

00:18:35.840 strong or weak

00:18:37.000 when it's our

00:18:38.300 leaders

00:18:38.620 because we

00:18:39.960 want strong

00:18:40.740 even if we

00:18:41.620 say we don't

00:18:42.440 want strong

00:18:43.220 we want strong

00:18:44.840 because it's

00:18:45.780 our leader

00:18:46.160 that's who's

00:18:46.660 protecting us.

00:18:47.780 You don't want

00:18:48.100 a weak one

00:18:48.600 you want a

00:18:50.060 strong one

00:18:50.560 even if you're

00:18:51.120 not willing to

00:18:51.720 admit it

00:18:52.280 that was a

00:18:53.120 strong play.

00:18:54.600 So I thought

00:18:54.980 that was all

00:18:55.920 all in his

00:18:57.760 favor.

00:18:58.420 Well played.

00:18:59.740 And to be

00:19:01.160 honest

00:19:01.480 nothing that

00:19:02.740 could have

00:19:03.000 come out of

00:19:03.360 the questions

00:19:03.860 would have

00:19:04.280 been good

00:19:05.100 because all

00:19:06.800 of the things

00:19:07.760 taken out of

00:19:08.340 the context

00:19:09.000 all of the

00:19:10.260 the president

00:19:11.060 said this

00:19:11.920 all of that

00:19:13.600 comes from

00:19:14.060 the questions.

00:19:15.520 So as soon

00:19:15.920 as this CBS

00:19:16.620 reporter gave

00:19:17.420 Trump a reason

00:19:18.200 to not take

00:19:19.580 questions

00:19:20.180 boom

00:19:21.620 free money

00:19:22.440 this reporter

00:19:24.320 put a big

00:19:24.820 pile of

00:19:25.260 free money

00:19:25.740 on the

00:19:26.020 table

00:19:26.340 because the

00:19:27.300 question and

00:19:27.840 answer period

00:19:28.440 can go wrong

00:19:29.440 but it can

00:19:30.720 never go

00:19:31.240 right.

00:19:32.520 You know

00:19:32.660 what I mean?

00:19:33.600 The president

00:19:34.460 never answers

00:19:35.340 questions and

00:19:36.220 then at the

00:19:36.600 end of it

00:19:36.980 oh I raised

00:19:38.040 my ratings

00:19:38.660 my job

00:19:39.840 approval went

00:19:40.500 up because

00:19:41.120 of the way

00:19:41.520 I answered

00:19:41.980 those questions.

00:19:42.960 That's not

00:19:43.620 even a thing.

00:19:45.060 It can only

00:19:46.080 be bad.

00:19:46.680 So this

00:19:47.940 reporter just

00:19:48.560 gave him

00:19:48.920 this big

00:19:49.280 bag of

00:19:49.720 free money

00:19:50.240 which was

00:19:51.260 a get out

00:19:52.040 of questions

00:19:52.720 pass and

00:19:53.980 you can see

00:19:54.840 him standing

00:19:55.260 there thinking

00:19:55.860 did she

00:19:57.560 just put a

00:19:58.240 big bag

00:19:59.180 of money

00:19:59.580 in front of

00:20:00.080 me with

00:20:00.400 nobody's

00:20:00.860 name on

00:20:01.280 it?

00:20:01.940 I feel

00:20:02.480 like I

00:20:02.880 could just

00:20:03.260 take this

00:20:03.800 big bag

00:20:04.400 of money

00:20:04.800 have no

00:20:05.820 risk that

00:20:06.480 questions go

00:20:07.340 bad

00:20:07.860 still look

00:20:09.140 like I'm

00:20:09.760 in charge

00:20:10.580 and see

00:20:12.240 you later.

00:20:14.260 Good

00:20:14.720 decision.

00:20:16.680 I would

00:20:18.380 go so

00:20:18.820 far as

00:20:19.220 to say

00:20:19.640 that that's

00:20:20.940 why you

00:20:21.360 hired him.

00:20:22.980 That's

00:20:23.540 why you

00:20:24.180 hired him

00:20:24.780 because of

00:20:25.540 that kind

00:20:26.100 of stuff.

00:20:27.920 Have we

00:20:28.700 learned this

00:20:29.300 week that

00:20:29.800 Congress is

00:20:30.500 the wrong

00:20:31.040 place for

00:20:32.500 budget authority

00:20:33.480 during a

00:20:34.840 crisis?

00:20:35.860 I think

00:20:36.440 we've learned

00:20:36.880 that right?

00:20:37.980 Now of

00:20:38.640 course we

00:20:39.100 do want

00:20:39.620 Congress to

00:20:41.900 have budget

00:20:42.380 authority in

00:20:43.300 normal times.

00:20:44.820 Duh.

00:20:45.540 That's

00:20:46.060 representative

00:20:46.840 government.

00:20:48.080 You know

00:20:48.360 we wish it

00:20:49.420 were more

00:20:50.020 more functional.

00:20:51.960 We wish that

00:20:52.540 they could

00:20:52.880 compromise

00:20:53.360 better.

00:20:54.520 Yada yada.

00:20:55.680 But

00:20:56.100 Congress is

00:20:57.660 the right

00:20:58.100 place for

00:20:58.640 that authority

00:20:59.340 so you

00:21:01.340 put up

00:21:01.720 with the

00:21:02.180 pain of

00:21:03.020 it.

00:21:03.760 But maybe

00:21:04.520 not during

00:21:05.140 a crisis

00:21:05.700 because if

00:21:07.340 timing is

00:21:08.800 more important

00:21:09.460 than getting

00:21:10.020 it right

00:21:10.660 as long

00:21:12.240 as we have

00:21:12.720 full visibility

00:21:13.600 of what

00:21:14.080 our

00:21:14.260 leadership

00:21:14.620 is doing

00:21:15.180 I'd

00:21:16.380 rather

00:21:16.760 have a

00:21:17.320 benevolent

00:21:17.980 dictator

00:21:18.620 just for

00:21:19.660 a while.

00:21:20.760 Yeah yeah yeah

00:21:21.280 don't get

00:21:21.700 excited.

00:21:22.460 No nobody

00:21:22.940 wants a

00:21:23.360 permanent

00:21:23.640 dictator.

00:21:24.720 Nobody wants

00:21:25.400 martial law

00:21:26.380 because maybe

00:21:27.260 that could turn

00:21:27.880 into a

00:21:28.400 permanent

00:21:28.700 dictator.

00:21:29.500 Right.

00:21:29.780 Right.

00:21:30.040 I get it.

00:21:30.740 I get it.

00:21:31.440 You know nobody

00:21:32.200 wants to risk

00:21:32.880 that a

00:21:33.380 temporary

00:21:34.320 dictator

00:21:34.800 becomes a

00:21:35.340 permanent

00:21:35.580 one.

00:21:35.860 But let's

00:21:38.000 say dictator

00:21:38.680 light you

00:21:39.700 know the

00:21:40.000 mildest

00:21:40.820 version of

00:21:41.680 an

00:21:41.840 authoritarian

00:21:42.280 government

00:21:43.000 would be

00:21:44.200 to do

00:21:44.600 some

00:21:44.820 executive

00:21:45.320 orders

00:21:45.880 that the

00:21:46.440 public

00:21:46.720 is begging

00:21:47.320 you to

00:21:47.740 do.

00:21:49.080 Right.

00:21:49.540 That's sort

00:21:50.440 of the

00:21:50.800 opposite of

00:21:51.560 being a

00:21:51.880 dictator.

00:21:52.940 Your public

00:21:53.560 is begging

00:21:54.320 you to

00:21:55.540 get this

00:21:56.060 done.

00:21:56.480 In this

00:21:56.760 case the

00:21:57.440 emergency

00:21:58.020 relief

00:21:58.520 begging

00:21:59.460 you please

00:22:00.840 government

00:22:01.360 please do

00:22:03.280 your effing

00:22:04.080 job.

00:22:04.720 can you

00:22:05.640 please.

00:22:06.800 Now under

00:22:07.180 that specific

00:22:07.980 situation do

00:22:10.100 you want your

00:22:10.740 leader to

00:22:11.260 say all

00:22:11.720 right I'm

00:22:12.040 just going

00:22:12.380 to ignore

00:22:13.060 a congress

00:22:13.640 because it's

00:22:14.720 the right

00:22:15.060 place for

00:22:15.540 the decision

00:22:16.180 but they

00:22:17.200 don't have

00:22:17.540 the timing

00:22:18.100 thing down.

00:22:19.380 If they

00:22:19.580 can't do

00:22:19.980 it on

00:22:20.580 time it

00:22:21.760 doesn't

00:22:22.100 matter if

00:22:22.600 that's their

00:22:23.040 authority they

00:22:23.680 just don't

00:22:24.120 get to do

00:22:24.620 it.

00:22:25.520 If you

00:22:26.080 don't do

00:22:27.000 it you

00:22:28.040 lose the

00:22:28.440 right to

00:22:28.760 do it.

00:22:29.980 So we're

00:22:30.240 in this

00:22:30.520 strange

00:22:31.180 situation which

00:22:32.280 Jonathan

00:22:32.940 Turley who

00:22:33.900 he's my

00:22:34.840 go-to on

00:22:35.460 these

00:22:35.700 constitutional

00:22:37.120 things with

00:22:38.120 Dershowitz

00:22:39.000 would be

00:22:39.380 the other

00:22:39.920 voices I

00:22:41.000 listen to

00:22:41.420 the most

00:22:41.820 and he

00:22:43.760 says this

00:22:44.720 which is

00:22:45.060 just the

00:22:45.380 perfect way

00:22:45.900 to put it

00:22:46.380 he says

00:22:47.960 that

00:22:48.340 it's

00:22:50.540 absurdly

00:22:51.180 unconstitutional

00:22:52.280 the executive

00:22:53.160 orders

00:22:53.600 but it

00:22:55.240 could be

00:22:55.660 let's just

00:22:56.300 say it

00:22:56.900 could be

00:22:57.220 absurdly

00:22:57.720 constitutional

00:22:58.300 but if

00:22:59.120 nobody

00:22:59.440 challenges

00:22:59.980 it

00:23:00.360 it's

00:23:01.580 practically

00:23:02.320 constitutional

00:23:03.200 so in

00:23:04.240 a practical

00:23:04.900 sense

00:23:05.500 it doesn't

00:23:06.860 matter if

00:23:07.280 it's

00:23:07.520 unconstitutional

00:23:08.520 have you

00:23:10.520 ever been in

00:23:11.040 this situation

00:23:11.700 before

00:23:12.180 maybe I

00:23:13.960 mean historically

00:23:14.680 maybe there's

00:23:15.240 some minor

00:23:15.900 situations that

00:23:16.820 fell into this

00:23:17.340 category but

00:23:18.260 just think of

00:23:19.120 that point

00:23:19.660 so long as

00:23:21.300 the the

00:23:22.080 population of

00:23:22.960 the United

00:23:23.340 States says

00:23:24.740 that's

00:23:25.400 unconstitutional

00:23:26.460 but I'm

00:23:28.980 not going to

00:23:29.420 complain

00:23:29.800 and if

00:23:31.780 the Democrats

00:23:32.320 say that's

00:23:33.040 really

00:23:33.460 unconstitutional

00:23:34.500 but we're

00:23:37.200 not going to

00:23:37.580 take it to

00:23:37.980 the Supreme

00:23:38.520 Court

00:23:38.900 it actually

00:23:40.700 doesn't

00:23:41.200 matter

00:23:41.580 it doesn't

00:23:43.220 matter if

00:23:43.620 it's

00:23:43.780 constitutional

00:23:44.360 it's kind

00:23:45.540 of mind

00:23:45.860 blowing

00:23:46.120 isn't it

00:23:46.600 because we're

00:23:47.100 so used

00:23:47.640 to it's

00:23:48.600 got to be

00:23:49.100 constitutional

00:23:49.800 that's like

00:23:50.980 the minimum

00:23:51.520 requirement for

00:23:52.500 anything

00:23:52.980 right

00:23:53.600 you can't

00:23:54.600 be unconstitutional

00:23:55.680 we can have

00:23:56.200 lots of

00:23:56.560 conversations

00:23:57.060 about whether

00:23:57.580 it's a good

00:23:58.020 or bad

00:23:58.360 idea

00:23:58.780 but that's

00:23:59.980 a line

00:24:00.660 you can't

00:24:01.640 cross

00:24:02.000 constitutional

00:24:02.900 and then we

00:24:04.560 just did

00:24:05.040 it looks like

00:24:06.760 we just

00:24:07.080 crossed it

00:24:07.640 running

00:24:08.000 hey

00:24:09.040 constitutional

00:24:09.680 line

00:24:10.100 let's run

00:24:10.600 right off

00:24:11.000 of this

00:24:11.300 keep going

00:24:11.800 and

00:24:12.980 I think

00:24:14.480 it's going

00:24:14.800 to work

00:24:15.280 because

00:24:17.060 you know

00:24:17.700 even if

00:24:18.100 you don't

00:24:18.360 like the

00:24:18.660 details of

00:24:19.300 it

00:24:19.480 people are

00:24:20.580 going to

00:24:20.740 like getting

00:24:21.120 their check

00:24:21.700 and they

00:24:22.040 weren't going

00:24:22.320 to get a

00:24:22.620 check before

00:24:23.260 even if

00:24:24.280 it's not

00:24:24.640 as much

00:24:25.240 blah blah 0.97

00:24:26.400 blah

00:24:26.620 now my

00:24:28.280 take on

00:24:28.720 the executive

00:24:29.260 orders is

00:24:29.960 that they're

00:24:30.640 too complicated

00:24:31.560 to really

00:24:32.980 be good

00:24:33.640 meaning that

00:24:35.380 you know

00:24:36.640 it's delaying

00:24:37.840 things and

00:24:38.520 moving things

00:24:39.140 around and

00:24:40.020 eventually

00:24:40.500 you'll have to

00:24:41.740 pay the

00:24:42.080 piper and

00:24:42.680 pay back

00:24:43.080 a loan

00:24:43.540 or move

00:24:44.060 something back

00:24:44.660 into a budget

00:24:45.260 that was

00:24:45.680 robbed to do

00:24:47.100 this

00:24:47.560 so it

00:24:48.780 doesn't really

00:24:49.600 feel like

00:24:50.600 except for the

00:24:51.240 part where you

00:24:51.660 get a check

00:24:52.340 I don't

00:24:54.100 know

00:24:54.360 I don't

00:24:56.040 have an

00:24:56.320 opinion on

00:24:56.800 whether these

00:24:57.300 are the

00:24:57.540 right things

00:24:58.080 to do

00:24:58.520 or whether

00:24:59.620 they're

00:24:59.900 lasting

00:25:00.320 but it

00:25:01.400 does give

00:25:01.820 the impression

00:25:02.380 of a

00:25:03.260 leader in

00:25:04.060 charge

00:25:04.640 again

00:25:05.260 so what

00:25:06.580 people are

00:25:07.060 going to

00:25:07.300 take away

00:25:07.800 from this

00:25:08.260 is is there

00:25:09.260 anything in

00:25:09.780 those executive

00:25:10.460 orders that's

00:25:11.220 good for me

00:25:12.020 and the

00:25:12.940 answer is

00:25:13.220 going to

00:25:13.400 be yes

00:25:13.940 for most

00:25:14.660 people

00:25:15.020 most people

00:25:16.200 are going to

00:25:16.520 find at least

00:25:17.040 one thing on

00:25:17.740 that list

00:25:18.260 they're going

00:25:18.620 to say oh

00:25:19.080 that's just

00:25:19.560 good for me

00:25:20.120 I'm not going

00:25:21.500 to complain

00:25:22.020 yeah it's

00:25:23.040 a little

00:25:23.360 unconstitutional

00:25:24.460 but I

00:25:25.920 don't want

00:25:26.240 to get

00:25:26.440 evicted

00:25:26.860 it does

00:25:28.600 seem a

00:25:29.080 little

00:25:29.220 unconstitutional

00:25:30.260 but I

00:25:31.460 like to

00:25:31.840 eat

00:25:32.160 so we're

00:25:35.600 seeing almost

00:25:36.520 an entire

00:25:37.160 new form

00:25:37.900 of government

00:25:38.540 here

00:25:38.880 remember I

00:25:39.980 told you

00:25:40.340 before that

00:25:41.040 our form

00:25:42.340 of government

00:25:42.900 had evolved

00:25:43.840 without anybody

00:25:44.920 voting on it

00:25:46.280 yeah and we

00:25:46.880 turned into

00:25:47.440 effectively the

00:25:48.560 the public

00:25:49.780 through social

00:25:51.000 media especially

00:25:51.800 has way more

00:25:53.120 control of

00:25:53.900 things than

00:25:54.440 maybe has

00:25:55.060 ever been in

00:25:55.600 the past

00:25:56.120 because it

00:25:56.920 would be

00:25:57.120 difficult for

00:25:57.740 a leader

00:25:58.040 to do

00:25:58.440 something that

00:25:59.580 the entire

00:26:00.060 public

00:26:00.560 spontaneously

00:26:01.600 disagreed

00:26:02.300 with violently

00:26:03.000 and I

00:26:04.020 think you've

00:26:04.420 seen the

00:26:04.860 president float

00:26:06.300 ideas and

00:26:07.060 back off and

00:26:07.920 float ideas and

00:26:08.780 back off and

00:26:09.440 it's mostly

00:26:09.860 because of the

00:26:10.440 public it's

00:26:11.580 not because of

00:26:12.180 the Democrats

00:26:12.940 it's because of

00:26:13.480 the public

00:26:13.960 so this might

00:26:17.280 be the cleanest

00:26:18.160 example because

00:26:19.640 the public

00:26:20.300 basically said

00:26:21.400 in our minds

00:26:23.800 you know I'm

00:26:25.300 I'm going to

00:26:26.180 mind read for

00:26:26.880 all of you

00:26:27.360 right in your

00:26:28.680 mind wasn't

00:26:29.900 there some part

00:26:30.600 of your mind

00:26:31.080 that said if

00:26:32.400 Congress can't

00:26:33.320 get this done

00:26:34.140 on time

00:26:35.620 somebody's got

00:26:37.280 to do it

00:26:37.760 right some

00:26:39.880 part of your

00:26:40.280 mind said if

00:26:41.460 Congress isn't

00:26:42.220 the right place

00:26:42.840 to do it

00:26:43.420 somebody else

00:26:44.960 has got to do

00:26:45.460 it because you

00:26:46.500 don't have an

00:26:46.920 option of not

00:26:47.820 doing it

00:26:48.440 because then

00:26:49.340 you have mass

00:26:50.480 starvation etc

00:26:51.700 so I think

00:26:54.560 the public

00:26:55.080 changed its

00:26:56.720 form of

00:26:57.260 government in

00:26:58.820 their minds

00:26:59.840 while you were

00:27:01.260 doing other

00:27:01.740 things you know

00:27:03.040 while you were

00:27:03.560 paying attention

00:27:04.300 the form of

00:27:05.660 government literally

00:27:07.220 and fundamentally

00:27:08.360 just changed

00:27:09.540 and the

00:27:10.360 constitution

00:27:11.080 became

00:27:11.880 wait for it

00:27:13.860 optional

00:27:15.760 the constitution

00:27:18.500 just became

00:27:19.840 optional

00:27:20.600 is that good

00:27:23.320 is it bad

00:27:25.380 don't know

00:27:27.400 I'm not

00:27:28.940 tempted to

00:27:30.320 think it's

00:27:30.780 necessarily

00:27:31.680 bad

00:27:32.360 because in a

00:27:33.320 situation like

00:27:34.180 this it's

00:27:35.280 clearly better

00:27:36.020 I'd have to

00:27:37.680 see other

00:27:38.040 situations to

00:27:38.960 know if

00:27:39.260 there's some

00:27:39.640 kind of

00:27:40.220 slippery slope

00:27:42.060 as some of

00:27:43.060 you like to

00:27:43.560 say

00:27:43.760 here's a

00:27:46.720 fun factoid

00:27:47.740 that

00:27:50.360 I guess

00:27:52.200 Ari Fleischer

00:27:53.420 tweeted this

00:27:54.460 and there was a

00:27:55.020 study recently

00:27:55.660 I'm not sure I

00:27:57.060 buy this

00:27:57.800 I'll go further

00:27:59.260 I don't buy

00:28:00.060 this

00:28:00.420 so I'm going

00:28:01.260 to give you

00:28:01.720 a study

00:28:02.340 result

00:28:03.020 as it was

00:28:05.080 summarized by

00:28:05.980 Ari Fleischer

00:28:06.640 in his tweet

00:28:08.060 I don't

00:28:10.400 think it's

00:28:10.820 true

00:28:11.160 but I'm

00:28:12.080 going to

00:28:12.200 tell you

00:28:12.480 anyway

00:28:12.820 it goes

00:28:13.900 like this

00:28:14.480 that if

00:28:15.480 you do

00:28:16.000 just three

00:28:16.940 things

00:28:17.500 you have a

00:28:18.640 2% chance

00:28:19.680 of being

00:28:19.980 poor

00:28:20.340 in other

00:28:21.340 words

00:28:21.660 if you

00:28:22.100 were already

00:28:22.520 poor

00:28:22.900 as long

00:28:23.740 as you

00:28:23.940 did these

00:28:24.360 three

00:28:24.700 things

00:28:25.220 you'd

00:28:26.180 have a

00:28:26.440 98%

00:28:27.200 chance

00:28:27.680 of going

00:28:28.120 from poor

00:28:28.640 to at

00:28:29.100 least

00:28:29.320 middle

00:28:29.700 class

00:28:30.120 and the

00:28:31.000 three

00:28:31.240 things

00:28:31.620 are

00:28:31.900 finish

00:28:32.840 high

00:28:33.140 school

00:28:33.480 get a

00:28:34.700 full

00:28:34.920 time

00:28:35.160 job

00:28:35.700 and don't

00:28:37.460 get married

00:28:37.900 and have

00:28:38.240 kids

00:28:38.500 until you're

00:28:38.920 21

00:28:39.300 if you

00:28:40.900 only do

00:28:41.540 those

00:28:41.860 three

00:28:42.120 things

00:28:42.600 you have

00:28:43.760 a 98%

00:28:44.600 chance

00:28:45.020 of having

00:28:45.400 a decent

00:28:45.760 life

00:28:46.220 pretty

00:28:48.000 interesting

00:28:48.440 isn't it

00:28:49.060 now I

00:28:49.580 put this

00:28:50.020 in the

00:28:50.320 context

00:28:50.840 of what

00:28:51.380 I believe

00:28:52.020 is most

00:28:52.820 missing

00:28:53.700 from

00:28:54.900 school

00:28:55.640 curriculums

00:28:56.400 strategy

00:28:57.700 for success

00:28:58.960 can you

00:29:00.320 imagine

00:29:00.840 telling

00:29:02.120 young

00:29:03.780 black

00:29:04.580 youth

00:29:05.200 I like

00:29:06.440 to use

00:29:06.820 black youth

00:29:07.560 as my

00:29:08.040 proxy

00:29:08.620 for anybody

00:29:09.180 poor

00:29:09.560 so it

00:29:10.540 could be

00:29:10.840 any person

00:29:11.480 of color

00:29:11.900 any white

00:29:13.040 person

00:29:13.320 any person

00:29:13.820 who's just

00:29:14.280 in a poor

00:29:14.860 situation

00:29:15.500 and doesn't

00:29:16.140 think they

00:29:16.520 can do

00:29:17.000 better

00:29:17.860 because

00:29:18.300 they feel

00:29:19.180 sort of

00:29:19.520 locked

00:29:19.860 into their

00:29:20.320 situation

00:29:20.900 how many

00:29:21.920 of them

00:29:22.240 at age

00:29:22.700 10

00:29:23.200 were told

00:29:25.100 that

00:29:25.500 all they

00:29:26.400 had to

00:29:26.660 do

00:29:26.800 is these

00:29:27.200 three

00:29:27.480 things

00:29:28.000 and they

00:29:29.320 would be

00:29:29.640 successful

00:29:30.200 do you

00:29:32.360 know what

00:29:32.600 I was

00:29:32.940 told

00:29:33.240 when I

00:29:34.280 was

00:29:34.520 that

00:29:35.020 age

00:29:35.320 I

00:29:37.240 was

00:29:37.480 pretty

00:29:37.740 much

00:29:38.040 told

00:29:38.480 that

00:29:40.640 this

00:29:40.840 would

00:29:41.020 make

00:29:41.240 me

00:29:41.420 successful

00:29:41.940 not

00:29:43.280 directly

00:29:43.820 but I

00:29:44.920 would feel

00:29:45.380 that

00:29:45.720 when I

00:29:46.580 was

00:29:46.920 just a

00:29:48.260 kid

00:29:48.520 I

00:29:49.040 would have

00:29:49.340 said

00:29:49.620 that

00:29:50.020 these

00:29:50.360 three

00:29:50.640 things

00:29:51.040 finish

00:29:51.400 high

00:29:51.640 school

00:29:51.960 I

00:29:52.660 would

00:29:52.840 have

00:29:52.960 changed

00:29:53.300 that

00:29:53.540 to

00:29:53.720 go

00:29:53.940 to

00:29:54.100 college

00:29:54.500 get

00:29:56.040 a

00:29:56.180 full

00:29:56.380 time

00:29:56.640 job

00:29:57.140 I

00:29:57.560 would

00:29:57.720 have

00:29:57.840 changed

00:29:58.100 that

00:29:58.320 to

00:29:58.580 get

00:29:59.580 a

00:29:59.720 good

00:29:59.900 job

00:30:00.280 and

00:30:01.580 wait

00:30:02.340 to

00:30:02.520 get

00:30:02.680 married

00:30:03.060 until

00:30:04.020 after

00:30:04.300 21

00:30:04.780 I'm

00:30:05.900 pretty

00:30:06.140 sure

00:30:06.360 that

00:30:06.520 was

00:30:06.660 part

00:30:06.880 of

00:30:06.960 my

00:30:07.100 upbringing

00:30:07.480 because

00:30:08.060 my

00:30:08.380 mother

00:30:09.620 started

00:30:10.440 having

00:30:10.740 kids

00:30:11.060 at

00:30:11.280 18

00:30:11.800 and

00:30:13.000 I

00:30:13.160 think

00:30:13.400 she

00:30:13.680 it

00:30:14.340 seems

00:30:14.580 to

00:30:14.720 me

00:30:14.840 that

00:30:14.980 that

00:30:15.100 was

00:30:15.220 baked

00:30:15.500 into

00:30:15.740 my

00:30:15.980 childhood

00:30:16.380 you

00:30:17.240 gotta

00:30:17.680 wait

00:30:17.900 a

00:30:18.040 little

00:30:18.140 while

00:30:18.440 and

00:30:19.060 get

00:30:19.480 things

00:30:19.760 up

00:30:19.960 and

00:30:20.060 running

00:30:20.300 I

00:30:20.860 don't

00:30:20.980 remember

00:30:21.240 if

00:30:21.380 that

00:30:21.500 was

00:30:21.620 something

00:30:21.860 she

00:30:22.100 directly

00:30:22.780 told

00:30:23.140 me

00:30:23.400 or

00:30:24.260 it

00:30:24.380 was

00:30:24.480 just

00:30:24.660 obvious

00:30:25.160 but

00:30:26.020 somehow

00:30:26.260 I

00:30:26.460 knew

00:30:26.640 it

00:30:26.880 and

00:30:28.500 I

00:30:28.620 would

00:30:28.740 be

00:30:28.860 really

00:30:29.100 curious

00:30:29.460 how

00:30:29.660 many

00:30:29.840 people

00:30:30.180 who

00:30:30.660 could

00:30:30.900 say

00:30:31.220 as an

00:30:32.780 adult

00:30:33.080 oh

00:30:33.600 yeah

00:30:33.840 this

00:30:34.800 is

00:30:34.980 exactly

00:30:35.440 the

00:30:35.760 life

00:30:36.020 strategy

00:30:36.500 that

00:30:36.800 I

00:30:36.920 learned

00:30:37.160 when

00:30:37.340 I

00:30:37.440 was

00:30:37.560 a

00:30:37.720 kid

00:30:37.940 how

00:30:38.680 many

00:30:38.880 people

00:30:39.140 could

00:30:39.360 say

00:30:39.580 that

00:30:39.880 I

00:30:41.640 don't

00:30:41.760 know

00:30:42.000 and

00:30:42.560 so

00:30:42.740 I

00:30:43.000 think

00:30:43.180 that

00:30:43.320 would

00:30:43.420 be

00:30:43.560 worth

00:30:43.940 testing

00:30:44.660 you

00:30:45.540 should

00:30:45.900 just

00:30:46.140 pick

00:30:46.560 out

00:30:46.740 a

00:30:46.940 classroom

00:30:47.520 or

00:30:47.880 something

00:30:48.140 and

00:30:48.360 say

00:30:48.580 we're

00:30:49.140 going

00:30:49.240 to

00:30:49.360 teach

00:30:49.620 you

00:30:49.840 life

00:30:50.420 strategy

00:30:51.140 I

00:30:51.920 would

00:30:52.080 give

00:30:56.020 for

00:30:57.060 let's

00:30:57.360 say

00:30:57.500 14

00:30:57.920 years

00:30:58.320 old

00:30:58.680 and

00:30:58.980 up

00:30:59.280 and

00:31:00.320 it's

00:31:00.680 simple

00:31:01.360 life

00:31:01.640 strategies

00:31:02.160 about

00:31:02.480 how to

00:31:02.720 have

00:31:02.900 a

00:31:03.060 system

00:31:03.400 for

00:31:03.700 something

00:31:04.140 not

00:31:04.600 a

00:31:04.760 goal

00:31:05.040 that

00:31:05.820 sort

00:31:06.060 of

00:31:06.160 thing

00:31:06.360 so

00:31:07.280 I

00:31:07.880 think

00:31:08.080 it

00:31:08.180 would

00:31:08.300 be

00:31:08.460 transformative

00:31:09.200 how

00:31:10.840 much

00:31:11.080 more

00:31:11.380 would

00:31:11.620 you

00:31:11.780 study

00:31:12.240 if

00:31:12.760 you

00:31:12.960 knew

00:31:13.200 that

00:31:13.540 it

00:31:14.860 was

00:31:15.020 the

00:31:15.180 difference

00:31:15.520 between

00:31:15.880 success

00:31:16.360 and

00:31:16.580 failure

00:31:16.920 I

00:31:17.580 mean

00:31:17.700 I

00:31:17.840 feel

00:31:18.040 like

00:31:18.180 it

00:31:18.280 would

00:31:18.340 make

00:31:18.500 a

00:31:18.600 big

00:31:18.760 difference

00:31:19.140 all

00:31:20.120 right

00:31:20.280 here's

00:31:21.780 a

00:31:22.140 oh

00:31:23.160 let's

00:31:23.400 talk

00:31:23.560 about

00:31:23.800 Jerry

00:31:24.100 Falwell

00:31:30.480 they

00:31:30.800 age

00:31:31.380 a

00:31:31.540 little

00:31:31.700 bit

00:31:32.000 and

00:31:32.660 sometimes

00:31:33.120 they're

00:31:37.620 so

00:31:39.000 I

00:31:44.520 woman 0.99

00:31:44.760 story

00:31:45.260 because

00:31:45.620 I

00:31:45.820 thought

00:31:46.140 it

00:31:46.260 was

00:31:46.480 oh

00:31:49.660 religious

00:31:50.220 person

00:31:51.220 maybe

00:31:51.720 did

00:31:52.420 something

00:31:52.760 bad

00:31:53.120 but

00:31:53.320 then

00:31:53.480 I

00:31:53.600 looked

00:31:53.820 into

00:31:54.000 the

00:31:54.140 story

00:31:54.380 it's

00:31:54.560 complete

00:31:54.940 BS

00:31:55.440 the

00:31:56.620 whole

00:31:56.840 story

00:31:57.180 is

00:31:57.340 complete

00:31:57.900 BS

00:31:58.500 he

00:31:59.780 basically

00:32:00.200 did

00:32:00.540 nothing

00:32:00.880 wrong

00:32:01.280 and

00:32:02.400 it's

00:32:02.680 obvious

00:32:03.100 once

00:32:03.660 he

00:32:04.100 tells

00:32:04.360 you

00:32:04.500 his

00:32:04.720 version

00:32:05.060 of

00:32:05.240 the

00:32:05.340 story

00:32:05.640 you

00:32:05.860 look

00:32:06.060 at

00:32:06.200 it

00:32:06.280 you

00:32:06.380 go

00:32:06.540 oh

00:32:07.380 that

00:32:08.220 was

00:32:08.380 nothing

00:32:08.700 that

00:32:08.940 was

00:32:09.060 actually

00:32:09.300 just

00:32:09.520 a

00:32:09.700 joke

00:32:10.020 and

00:32:11.040 the

00:32:11.180 joke

00:32:11.460 was

00:32:11.680 this

00:32:12.040 his

00:32:13.220 his

00:32:13.780 or

00:32:15.020 his

00:32:15.220 wife's

00:32:15.620 assistant

00:32:16.040 who

00:32:17.020 traveled

00:32:17.480 with

00:32:17.840 them

00:32:18.100 in

00:32:18.380 other

00:32:18.580 words

00:32:18.840 he

00:32:19.100 and

00:32:19.260 his

00:32:19.400 wife

00:32:22.420 might

00:32:22.640 have

00:32:22.760 taken

00:32:22.960 the

00:32:23.180 picture

00:32:23.480 he

00:32:24.840 posed

00:32:25.200 with

00:32:25.420 the

00:32:25.540 assistant

00:32:25.920 because

00:32:26.380 what

00:32:26.620 was

00:32:26.820 funny

00:32:27.160 was

00:32:27.600 the

00:32:28.220 assistant

00:32:28.580 was

00:32:28.880 pregnant 0.80

00:32:29.260 and

00:32:29.940 she

00:32:30.100 couldn't

00:32:30.720 button

00:32:31.740 the top

00:32:32.160 of her

00:32:32.440 pants

00:32:32.880 so she

00:32:33.720 was

00:32:33.900 leaving

00:32:34.160 it

00:32:34.300 open

00:32:34.640 Jerry

00:32:35.620 Falwell

00:32:36.120 Jr.

00:32:37.100 in an

00:32:37.400 act

00:32:37.700 of

00:32:37.920 self

00:32:38.400 deprecation

00:32:39.320 was

00:32:40.480 noting

00:32:40.840 that

00:32:41.060 he

00:32:41.200 had

00:32:41.720 gained

00:32:42.560 a

00:32:42.720 little

00:32:42.840 weight

00:32:43.240 and

00:32:44.140 so

00:32:44.320 he

00:32:44.460 was

00:32:44.620 pretending

00:32:45.000 like

00:32:45.400 because

00:32:45.760 he

00:32:45.920 had

00:32:46.040 gained

00:32:46.240 weight

00:32:46.480 he

00:32:46.700 couldn't

00:32:47.080 button

00:32:47.480 the

00:32:47.660 top

00:32:47.880 of

00:32:48.020 his

00:32:48.160 pants

00:32:48.540 so

00:32:49.280 they

00:32:49.420 took

00:32:49.620 a

00:32:49.760 picture

00:32:49.980 together

00:32:50.480 he

00:32:51.100 had

00:32:51.220 his

00:32:51.380 shirt

00:32:51.580 off

00:32:51.960 but

00:32:52.180 I

00:32:52.280 think

00:32:52.380 he

00:32:52.440 was

00:32:52.540 on

00:32:52.660 vacation

00:32:53.080 so

00:32:53.480 not

00:32:53.820 a

00:32:53.940 big

00:32:54.060 deal

00:32:54.320 and

00:32:55.300 his

00:32:56.380 top

00:32:56.760 of his

00:32:57.040 pants

00:32:57.320 were

00:32:57.500 unbuttoned

00:32:58.120 hers

00:32:58.480 were

00:32:58.680 unbuttoned

00:32:59.340 if you

00:32:59.920 don't

00:33:00.120 notice

00:33:00.440 that

00:33:00.620 she's

00:33:00.840 pregnant 0.80

00:33:01.200 it

00:33:01.920 looks

00:33:02.140 like

00:33:02.320 something's

00:33:02.760 up

00:33:02.980 it

00:33:04.340 was

00:33:04.480 nothing

00:33:04.840 but

00:33:05.060 a

00:33:05.240 gag

00:33:05.540 picture

00:33:06.000 to

00:33:07.060 make

00:33:07.260 fun

00:33:07.460 of

00:33:07.580 the

00:33:07.680 fact

00:33:07.900 that

00:33:08.080 he

00:33:08.180 thought

00:33:08.400 he

00:33:08.500 had

00:33:08.620 gained

00:33:08.820 some

00:33:09.040 pounds

00:33:09.460 that's

00:33:11.000 it

00:33:11.260 it

00:33:11.860 was

00:33:12.020 so

00:33:12.740 opposite

00:33:13.260 any

00:33:13.640 kind

00:33:19.620 and

00:33:20.920 and

00:33:21.160 he

00:33:21.260 had

00:33:21.400 to

00:33:21.500 take

00:33:21.660 a

00:33:21.780 leave

00:33:22.000 of

00:33:22.140 absence

00:33:22.540 about

00:33:22.820 this

00:33:23.080 now

00:33:23.520 of

00:33:23.660 course

00:33:23.820 the

00:33:24.040 judgment

00:33:24.420 part

00:33:24.820 is

00:33:25.000 I

00:33:25.120 guess

00:33:25.260 it

00:33:25.380 got

00:33:25.520 on

00:33:25.680 social

00:33:26.020 media

00:33:26.420 so

00:33:27.480 you

00:33:27.760 know

00:33:27.960 the

00:33:29.520 worst

00:33:30.020 part

00:33:30.420 about

00:33:30.700 this

00:33:31.120 is

00:33:32.540 that

00:33:32.700 he

00:33:32.820 didn't

00:33:33.120 understand

00:33:33.640 that

00:33:33.860 other

00:33:34.080 people

00:33:34.400 would

00:33:34.600 see

00:33:34.820 it

00:33:34.960 differently

00:33:35.340 that's

00:33:35.800 it

00:33:36.000 that's

00:33:36.820 it

00:33:37.000 that's

00:33:37.280 the

00:33:37.380 whole

00:33:37.480 thing

00:33:37.760 this

00:33:38.940 guy

00:33:39.160 had

00:33:39.360 to

00:33:39.560 change

00:33:40.240 his

00:33:40.540 career

00:33:41.300 situation

00:33:41.920 his

00:33:42.220 reputation

00:33:43.380 everything

00:33:43.980 over

00:33:44.800 a

00:33:45.220 freaking

00:33:45.560 joke

00:33:46.320 don't

00:33:49.620 make

00:33:49.900 me

00:33:50.100 defend

00:33:50.520 Jerry

00:33:50.920 Falwell

00:33:51.400 Jr.

00:33:52.400 I

00:33:52.540 mean

00:33:52.660 I

00:33:52.780 have

00:33:52.900 nothing

00:33:53.120 against

00:33:53.460 him

00:33:53.680 but

00:33:54.260 it's

00:33:54.420 not

00:33:54.560 my

00:33:54.800 job

00:33:55.080 to

00:33:55.260 defend

00:33:55.640 him

00:33:55.840 but

00:33:56.040 I

00:33:56.400 have

00:33:56.620 to

00:33:56.840 because

00:33:57.780 I

00:33:57.900 don't

00:33:58.000 want

00:33:58.140 to

00:33:58.240 live

00:33:58.420 in a

00:33:58.620 world

00:33:58.840 where

00:33:59.160 somebody

00:34:00.020 does

00:34:00.260 a

00:34:00.460 joke

00:34:00.820 photo

00:34:01.260 that

00:34:01.620 nobody

00:34:02.020 is

00:34:02.220 offended

00:34:02.580 by

00:34:02.940 it

00:34:03.640 wasn't

00:34:03.920 at

00:34:04.120 anybody's

00:34:04.680 expense

00:34:05.360 right

00:34:06.880 it

00:34:07.160 wasn't

00:34:07.420 at

00:34:07.640 anybody's

00:34:08.120 expense

00:34:08.660 except

00:34:09.400 himself

00:34:09.920 he

00:34:10.220 was

00:34:10.340 making

00:34:10.580 fun

00:34:10.860 of

00:34:11.000 himself

00:34:11.500 if

00:34:12.320 you

00:34:12.480 can't

00:34:12.800 make

00:34:12.980 fun

00:34:13.220 of

00:34:13.380 your

00:34:13.540 freaking

00:34:13.860 self

00:34:14.620 and

00:34:16.340 you

00:34:16.460 lose

00:34:16.740 your

00:34:16.900 job

00:34:17.200 for

00:34:17.380 making

00:34:17.660 fun

00:34:18.000 of

00:34:18.100 yourself

00:34:18.580 seriously

00:34:20.020 that's

00:34:21.280 crazy

00:34:21.700 all right

00:34:24.580 here's a

00:34:24.940 little math

00:34:25.460 you're not

00:34:25.880 going to

00:34:26.140 like

00:34:26.520 so

00:34:27.480 according

00:34:27.740 to Fox

00:34:28.220 News

00:34:28.540 some

00:34:28.960 kind

00:34:29.160 of

00:34:29.340 survey

00:34:29.780 they said

00:34:30.200 that

00:34:30.360 one-third

00:34:30.900 of people

00:34:31.420 the population

00:34:32.700 would not

00:34:33.320 take the

00:34:33.780 coronavirus

00:34:34.180 vaccine

00:34:35.280 now that's

00:34:36.140 not too

00:34:36.500 surprising

00:34:37.060 right

00:34:37.400 one-third

00:34:38.700 would not

00:34:39.060 take it

00:34:39.460 but you

00:34:40.280 say to

00:34:40.560 yourself

00:34:40.800 well

00:34:41.140 that

00:34:42.560 that might

00:34:43.240 be okay

00:34:43.860 because

00:34:44.780 suppose

00:34:45.200 two-thirds

00:34:45.780 take it

00:34:46.320 if

00:34:47.320 two-thirds

00:34:47.800 took it

00:34:48.380 and then

00:34:49.180 you add

00:34:49.640 the

00:34:49.920 any

00:34:50.500 herd

00:34:50.980 immunity

00:34:51.360 that happened

00:34:52.060 whatever

00:34:52.380 small amount

00:34:53.020 that is

00:34:53.440 you'd say

00:34:54.320 oh there

00:34:54.780 we are

00:34:55.200 two-thirds

00:34:56.260 take it

00:34:56.780 add a little

00:34:57.300 natural

00:34:57.740 immunity

00:34:58.200 boom

00:34:59.040 you're at

00:34:59.400 70%

00:35:00.400 immunity

00:35:02.260 virus is

00:35:04.420 gone

00:35:04.720 that should

00:35:05.720 get it

00:35:06.060 done

00:35:06.240 right

00:35:06.520 so

00:35:07.340 no problem

00:35:08.540 if one-third

00:35:09.620 don't want to

00:35:10.180 take it

00:35:10.620 it's a free

00:35:11.540 country

00:35:11.940 if two-thirds

00:35:13.120 take it

00:35:13.680 boom

00:35:14.140 problem

00:35:14.580 done

00:35:15.000 except

00:35:16.760 except

00:35:18.920 according to

00:35:19.980 Dr. Fauci

00:35:20.860 a vaccine

00:35:22.620 might only

00:35:23.260 be

00:35:23.820 50%

00:35:25.660 effective

00:35:26.320 ouch

00:35:28.740 because

00:35:30.240 then

00:35:31.200 you've got

00:35:32.240 two-thirds

00:35:32.900 willing to

00:35:33.440 take it

00:35:33.860 but only

00:35:34.300 half of

00:35:34.780 them

00:35:35.040 back to

00:35:36.460 one-third

00:35:37.040 are actually

00:35:38.220 going to

00:35:39.360 take it

00:35:40.800 and have

00:35:41.380 it

00:35:41.480 effective

00:35:41.840 so you

00:35:43.060 would have

00:35:43.320 only one-third

00:35:44.360 of the

00:35:44.660 country

00:35:45.020 vaccinated

00:35:45.920 in an

00:35:47.000 effective way

00:35:47.720 because the

00:35:48.100 other half

00:35:48.480 didn't work

00:35:49.020 and

00:35:50.460 then you

00:35:51.520 add a

00:35:51.800 little bit

00:35:52.100 of herd

00:35:52.380 immunity

00:35:52.740 so you've

00:35:53.880 got like

00:35:54.220 33%

00:35:55.140 plus

00:35:55.880 10%

00:35:57.720 maybe

00:35:58.440 10%

00:35:59.160 natural

00:35:59.640 herd

00:35:59.880 immunity

00:36:00.260 what

00:36:01.300 happens

00:36:01.700 if you

00:36:02.040 can only

00:36:02.440 get to

00:36:02.960 the

00:36:03.360 40%

00:36:05.200 range

00:36:05.920 with

00:36:06.880 a

00:36:07.060 vaccine

00:36:07.700 plus

00:36:08.780 natural

00:36:09.420 herd

00:36:09.700 immunity

00:36:10.120 now it's

00:36:12.400 possible that

00:36:12.960 the vaccine

00:36:13.400 would be

00:36:13.780 better than

00:36:14.200 50%

00:36:14.960 it could

00:36:15.320 be 75% 0.52

00:36:16.380 it could

00:36:16.620 be better

00:36:16.980 and we

00:36:18.180 hope it's

00:36:18.580 better

00:36:18.800 but there's

00:36:19.940 a pretty

00:36:20.540 high chance

00:36:21.520 that the

00:36:22.240 vaccine

00:36:23.000 won't get

00:36:25.120 you there

00:36:25.480 so just

00:36:27.800 keep that

00:36:28.200 in mind

00:36:28.580 when

00:36:29.620 you're

00:36:30.580 looking at

00:36:31.120 what is

00:36:31.640 the right

00:36:32.020 strategy

00:36:32.580 to be

00:36:33.220 doing

00:36:33.460 today

00:36:33.920 you have

00:36:35.180 to put

00:36:35.640 your odds

00:36:36.260 on the

00:36:36.620 vaccine

00:36:37.140 getting us

00:36:38.120 to herd

00:36:38.400 immunity

00:36:38.740 along those

00:36:43.240 lines

00:36:43.620 yesterday

00:36:44.980 I found

00:36:45.460 myself in

00:36:46.060 a debate

00:36:46.580 with somebody

00:36:47.400 online

00:36:47.860 who did

00:36:48.280 not have

00:36:48.760 a profile

00:36:49.440 detail

00:36:51.160 so often

00:36:52.220 people will

00:36:52.760 tell you

00:36:53.320 in their

00:36:53.740 profile

00:36:54.200 what kind

00:36:55.280 of occupation

00:36:56.080 they have

00:36:56.540 either

00:36:56.760 directly

00:36:57.180 or indirectly

00:36:57.760 and this

00:36:58.600 one was

00:36:59.020 sort of

00:36:59.380 silent

00:36:59.720 on the

00:37:00.060 occupation

00:37:00.560 and

00:37:01.620 insisted

00:37:02.560 that

00:37:02.880 Trump

00:37:03.740 was

00:37:04.060 doing

00:37:04.260 a

00:37:04.400 bad

00:37:04.640 job

00:37:05.040 compared

00:37:05.500 to

00:37:05.760 other

00:37:06.100 countries

00:37:06.660 managing

00:37:07.180 the

00:37:07.420 coronavirus

00:37:07.780 now I

00:37:09.080 said

00:37:09.420 I got

00:37:09.920 into it

00:37:10.340 and said

00:37:10.580 well you

00:37:10.960 know too

00:37:11.240 many variables

00:37:11.920 it's too

00:37:12.500 early in the

00:37:13.020 game you

00:37:13.420 can't really

00:37:13.780 tell

00:37:14.020 and he

00:37:15.620 pushed back

00:37:16.160 and said

00:37:16.420 oh yeah

00:37:16.740 you can

00:37:17.040 tell

00:37:17.300 compare them

00:37:18.400 to these

00:37:18.920 countries

00:37:19.340 and I

00:37:20.300 said no

00:37:20.880 you can't

00:37:21.180 really compare

00:37:21.640 them that's

00:37:22.020 apples and

00:37:22.460 oranges

00:37:22.720 and then I

00:37:24.060 explained a

00:37:24.520 few

00:37:24.700 examples

00:37:25.620 why

00:37:25.960 and then he

00:37:27.120 said well

00:37:27.420 what about

00:37:27.760 this country

00:37:28.300 and I

00:37:29.140 said

00:37:29.380 that's just

00:37:31.220 another apple

00:37:32.020 compared to

00:37:33.240 another orange

00:37:33.960 same thing I

00:37:35.380 just said

00:37:36.040 just changed

00:37:37.300 the country

00:37:37.860 and then he

00:37:39.460 came back and

00:37:39.940 said what

00:37:40.220 about Canada

00:37:40.820 and I

00:37:42.880 started to

00:37:43.420 think

00:37:43.680 what is

00:37:45.020 wrong with

00:37:45.560 this guy

00:37:46.060 why can't

00:37:47.800 he understand

00:37:48.440 that there

00:37:50.200 are too

00:37:50.420 many variables

00:37:51.280 he can

00:37:52.580 disagree

00:37:52.980 with it

00:37:53.560 but how

00:37:54.940 come he

00:37:55.260 can't

00:37:55.540 why can't

00:37:56.220 he even

00:37:56.500 understand

00:37:57.120 what I'm

00:37:57.700 saying

00:37:58.040 and then I

00:37:59.400 finally after

00:38:00.120 several iterations

00:38:02.100 I said

00:38:02.820 what kind

00:38:04.060 of art

00:38:04.500 do you

00:38:04.920 do

00:38:05.320 you see

00:38:07.620 where I'm

00:38:07.920 going right

00:38:08.480 and then he

00:38:10.260 waited a while

00:38:10.840 and said

00:38:11.220 I do

00:38:11.860 various things

00:38:12.900 and then I

00:38:14.480 said

00:38:14.820 what kind

00:38:16.200 of artistic

00:38:16.900 things do

00:38:17.600 you do

00:38:18.060 and it turns

00:38:19.120 out he does

00:38:19.620 various artistic

00:38:20.700 things

00:38:21.200 he's an artist

00:38:21.900 artist of

00:38:22.920 in various

00:38:23.800 fields

00:38:24.260 but an

00:38:25.420 artist

00:38:25.740 now how

00:38:27.160 many times

00:38:27.760 have I made

00:38:28.260 the same

00:38:28.720 mistake

00:38:29.220 of trying

00:38:30.360 to debate

00:38:31.140 an artist

00:38:32.200 it's a

00:38:33.540 waste of

00:38:34.300 time

00:38:34.640 because artists

00:38:36.060 could be

00:38:36.700 brilliant in

00:38:37.400 their field

00:38:37.940 but if that's

00:38:38.860 their entire

00:38:39.720 domain of

00:38:40.400 experience

00:38:40.920 they don't

00:38:42.000 know how

00:38:42.440 to analyze

00:38:43.160 things

00:38:43.760 but worse

00:38:45.140 they don't

00:38:45.760 know they

00:38:46.060 don't know

00:38:46.460 how

00:38:46.780 so it's

00:38:47.840 sort of

00:38:48.100 like talking

00:38:48.580 to a

00:38:48.940 five-year-old

00:38:49.560 about physics

00:38:50.360 you can't

00:38:51.760 tell the

00:38:52.060 five-year-old

00:38:52.560 that they

00:38:52.840 don't

00:38:53.060 understand

00:38:53.500 physics

00:38:54.100 well I

00:38:54.800 suppose maybe

00:38:55.300 you could

00:38:55.640 in that

00:38:55.900 case

00:38:56.160 but

00:38:56.960 there's

00:38:59.020 no place

00:38:59.500 you could

00:38:59.880 go

00:39:00.280 you can't

00:39:01.100 win the

00:39:01.460 argument

00:39:01.820 because that

00:39:03.160 would require

00:39:03.680 them to

00:39:04.080 follow the

00:39:04.620 argument

00:39:04.940 and they

00:39:05.340 can't

00:39:05.840 and it's

00:39:06.560 so consistent

00:39:07.420 that the

00:39:08.440 people who

00:39:08.880 only have

00:39:09.380 experience

00:39:09.820 in that

00:39:10.200 domain

00:39:10.600 can't

00:39:11.680 follow an

00:39:12.100 argument

00:39:12.440 because it

00:39:14.240 was flagged

00:39:15.520 so clearly

00:39:16.460 in the

00:39:17.040 conversation

00:39:17.640 that I could

00:39:18.960 just say

00:39:19.320 what kind

00:39:19.760 of art

00:39:20.140 do you

00:39:20.420 do

00:39:20.740 and I

00:39:21.600 could get

00:39:21.980 it almost

00:39:22.440 every time

00:39:23.160 because I've

00:39:23.760 done this

00:39:24.080 a number of

00:39:24.520 times

00:39:24.840 guessing people's

00:39:26.140 occupation

00:39:26.700 by how poorly

00:39:28.100 they argue

00:39:28.800 if this

00:39:30.600 had been

00:39:30.900 an economist

00:39:31.560 a doctor

00:39:33.180 an engineer

00:39:36.600 I would

00:39:37.620 have picked

00:39:37.980 that up

00:39:38.480 right away

00:39:39.060 because even

00:39:40.500 their disagreements

00:39:41.460 would be in

00:39:42.160 a category

00:39:42.640 I'd say

00:39:42.980 okay

00:39:43.280 I disagree

00:39:44.940 but it's

00:39:45.340 a good

00:39:45.520 point

00:39:45.920 and I'll

00:39:46.440 tell you

00:39:46.720 why

00:39:46.980 you got

00:39:48.260 an assumption

00:39:48.720 wrong

00:39:49.040 but for

00:39:50.200 your

00:39:50.540 benefit

00:39:52.620 I compiled

00:39:53.920 a tweet

00:39:54.440 that I just

00:39:54.900 tweeted

00:39:55.180 before I

00:39:55.600 got on

00:39:56.020 about all

00:39:57.140 the variables

00:39:57.740 you would

00:39:58.140 have to

00:39:58.460 look at

00:39:58.940 in order

00:39:59.660 to compare

00:40:00.280 any two

00:40:01.000 countries

00:40:01.560 so here

00:40:02.840 if you

00:40:03.880 think you

00:40:04.340 can compare

00:40:04.920 two countries

00:40:05.780 I would

00:40:06.820 like you

00:40:07.320 to show

00:40:08.260 me how

00:40:08.600 you factored

00:40:09.300 in the

00:40:09.740 following

00:40:10.040 things

00:40:10.520 for any

00:40:11.040 two

00:40:11.380 countries

00:40:11.840 and the

00:40:12.660 coronavirus

00:40:13.160 population

00:40:14.600 density

00:40:15.200 percentage

00:40:16.420 of black

00:40:17.160 population

00:40:17.960 because they

00:40:18.800 have a higher

00:40:19.280 mortality

00:40:19.920 so for

00:40:20.900 example if

00:40:21.460 you compare

00:40:21.940 the United

00:40:22.440 States to

00:40:23.040 Canada

00:40:23.420 are you

00:40:24.500 going to

00:40:24.740 factor in

00:40:25.280 the fact

00:40:25.840 that Canada

00:40:26.360 has 3.5%

00:40:28.620 black

00:40:29.140 population

00:40:29.760 the United

00:40:30.700 States has

00:40:31.340 over 13%

00:40:32.800 black

00:40:33.660 population

00:40:34.360 and the

00:40:35.220 black

00:40:35.440 population

00:40:36.020 unfortunately

00:40:36.820 has a

00:40:37.760 far higher

00:40:38.640 death rate

00:40:39.240 so only

00:40:39.560 four times

00:40:40.280 so who

00:40:41.580 calculated

00:40:42.140 that when

00:40:43.280 you're comparing

00:40:43.840 Canada to

00:40:44.420 the United

00:40:44.740 States in

00:40:45.540 terms of the

00:40:45.900 death rate

00:40:46.260 anyway

00:40:46.540 and have

00:40:47.800 you have

00:40:48.400 you factored

00:40:48.900 that in

00:40:49.280 how about

00:40:50.040 the average

00:40:50.420 age

00:40:50.900 Italy is

00:40:51.740 very old

00:40:52.440 Africa is

00:40:53.340 very young

00:40:53.900 big difference

00:40:55.400 how about

00:40:57.200 the island

00:40:57.920 status or

00:40:58.780 near island

00:40:59.580 status if

00:41:01.000 I hear

00:41:01.500 one more

00:41:02.240 idiot compare

00:41:03.720 the United

00:41:04.280 States or

00:41:05.020 any other

00:41:05.600 regular country

00:41:06.760 that's not

00:41:07.360 an island

00:41:07.900 to an

00:41:09.100 island I'm

00:41:10.860 going to

00:41:11.080 lose my

00:41:11.620 freaking

00:41:11.920 mind because

00:41:13.820 it really

00:41:14.960 helps to be

00:41:15.520 an island

00:41:16.020 New Zealand

00:41:17.380 doing great

00:41:18.480 Thailand

00:41:19.480 doing great

00:41:21.020 how about

00:41:22.580 South Korea

00:41:23.540 kind of an

00:41:25.060 island because

00:41:25.980 it's only

00:41:26.360 connected by

00:41:27.100 North Korea

00:41:27.720 and the

00:41:28.000 DMZ and

00:41:28.720 you're not

00:41:29.020 getting much

00:41:29.480 through there

00:41:30.020 so South

00:41:31.940 Korea kind

00:41:33.020 of an

00:41:33.280 island how

00:41:34.180 about Mongolia

00:41:34.960 Mongolia is

00:41:35.800 doing well

00:41:36.360 no water

00:41:37.840 around Mongolia

00:41:38.740 no Mongolia 0.99

00:41:40.760 is kind of

00:41:41.900 an island it

00:41:42.600 just happens

00:41:43.040 to be a

00:41:43.380 land island

00:41:44.060 you know

00:41:44.800 there's

00:41:45.040 physical

00:41:45.700 separation I

00:41:46.940 may be wrong

00:41:47.460 about that but

00:41:48.080 the point the

00:41:48.700 larger point is

00:41:49.620 don't compare

00:41:50.760 non-islands

00:41:51.840 to islands

00:41:52.600 you could

00:41:53.820 compare the

00:41:54.340 islands all

00:41:55.020 to themselves

00:41:55.620 that would

00:41:56.620 make maybe

00:41:57.280 you'd be

00:41:57.640 closer to

00:41:58.180 there but

00:41:59.040 don't compare

00:41:59.580 an island to

00:42:00.720 the United

00:42:01.120 States with

00:42:01.800 porous borders

00:42:02.720 how about the

00:42:05.640 cultural norms

00:42:07.080 of conformity

00:42:08.160 do you think

00:42:09.660 the United

00:42:10.240 States

00:42:10.780 norm

00:42:12.520 of how

00:42:14.360 much we're

00:42:14.800 willing to

00:42:15.400 rebel versus

00:42:16.440 how much we're

00:42:17.480 willing to

00:42:17.920 conform do

00:42:18.940 you think that

00:42:19.480 matches up

00:42:20.120 to other

00:42:20.460 countries

00:42:20.980 is your

00:42:22.380 impression of

00:42:23.060 Germany that 0.85

00:42:23.700 they're a bunch

00:42:24.140 of rebels

00:42:24.700 is your

00:42:26.140 impression of

00:42:26.920 South Korea

00:42:27.520 that's all

00:42:28.600 rebels

00:42:29.140 no

00:42:31.020 it probably

00:42:31.980 isn't

00:42:32.820 I hate to

00:42:33.320 make sweeping

00:42:34.000 generalizations

00:42:34.800 about entire

00:42:35.540 countries and

00:42:36.240 cultures but

00:42:37.540 I think there

00:42:38.200 are differences

00:42:38.760 in the United

00:42:40.420 States if you

00:42:41.300 said don't hit

00:42:42.200 yourself in the

00:42:42.860 head with a

00:42:43.680 hammer 50

00:42:45.400 million people

00:42:46.120 would go to

00:42:46.680 the toolbox

00:42:47.680 pick up a

00:42:48.480 hammer hit

00:42:49.260 themselves in

00:42:49.840 the head and

00:42:50.260 say you

00:42:51.020 can't tell me

00:42:51.640 what to do

00:42:52.020 with a hammer

00:42:52.440 you do not

00:42:53.900 tell me what

00:42:54.460 to do with a

00:42:54.920 hammer I

00:42:55.900 decide what

00:42:56.680 to do with a

00:42:57.260 hammer if you

00:42:58.260 don't want me to

00:42:58.940 hit myself in

00:42:59.920 the head good

00:43:00.860 luck with that

00:43:01.540 watch this

00:43:02.560 bam bam bam

00:43:03.460 bam bam bam

00:43:04.000 bam and it

00:43:05.460 looks like I'm

00:43:06.160 making fun of

00:43:06.820 Americans nope 1.00

00:43:08.980 nope if that's

00:43:11.440 what you heard

00:43:12.100 you heard it

00:43:12.960 wrong am I

00:43:14.280 saying Americans

00:43:14.960 are stupid because

00:43:15.940 they'll just hit

00:43:16.500 themselves in the

00:43:17.500 head with a

00:43:17.840 hammer no

00:43:18.800 that's what

00:43:20.320 makes this

00:43:20.920 freaking country

00:43:21.900 great our

00:43:23.900 greatness as a

00:43:25.100 country and

00:43:25.940 I'm definitely

00:43:27.260 on board with

00:43:28.100 the United States

00:43:28.760 being a great

00:43:29.680 country our

00:43:31.320 greatness has

00:43:32.460 everything to do

00:43:33.700 with rebellion

00:43:34.400 we were born of

00:43:36.500 rebellion we

00:43:38.060 have we've

00:43:39.400 fought a civil

00:43:40.020 war we've you

00:43:42.340 know we got

00:43:42.780 suffrage we

00:43:45.820 rebel we are a

00:43:48.060 country of

00:43:49.000 rebels and

00:43:50.500 that's also what

00:43:51.420 keeps us together

00:43:52.160 the fact that

00:43:54.200 the fact that

00:43:55.160 we're all rebels

00:43:55.820 it is sort of a

00:43:58.800 sort of a thing

00:44:00.260 right now not

00:44:02.080 rebels in terms

00:44:02.980 of you know the

00:44:04.660 confederate flag

00:44:05.680 but rebels in

00:44:07.220 terms of we

00:44:08.160 just don't like to

00:44:09.180 be told what to

00:44:09.920 do and if

00:44:12.060 if there's

00:44:12.600 something we're

00:44:13.040 not supposed to

00:44:13.820 do we're going

00:44:14.280 to do it three

00:44:14.820 times we're going

00:44:16.140 to experiment and

00:44:17.520 we're going to

00:44:18.040 die we will die

00:44:20.480 for freedom like

00:44:23.120 it's taken a

00:44:23.780 walk all right

00:44:25.120 and as long as

00:44:26.340 the United States

00:44:27.140 has that kind of

00:44:28.060 character we will

00:44:29.640 always be a

00:44:30.340 dominant culture

00:44:31.180 meaning that the

00:44:33.060 country will do

00:44:33.780 well because that

00:44:34.900 kind of risk

00:44:35.620 taking and thinking

00:44:36.720 outside the box is

00:44:38.200 why we're the most

00:44:38.920 innovative country in

00:44:39.960 the world it's all

00:44:41.200 connected so you

00:44:42.480 don't want to take

00:44:43.080 that away from us

00:44:44.140 you want to see

00:44:45.380 that as our

00:44:46.040 strength it just

00:44:47.540 doesn't work too

00:44:48.400 well in a pandemic

00:44:49.300 if we're being

00:44:50.880 honest it's not

00:44:52.200 the best match

00:44:53.380 for a pandemic

00:44:54.360 but you got to

00:44:55.480 factor that stuff

00:44:56.340 in there how

00:44:57.560 about vitamin D

00:44:58.800 exposure better

00:45:00.700 look at that

00:45:01.240 across countries we

00:45:02.280 know that that's a

00:45:02.980 factor how about

00:45:04.300 strong states

00:45:05.660 rights versus the

00:45:06.740 federal government

00:45:07.480 what is the

00:45:09.280 situation in I

00:45:10.820 don't know

00:45:11.640 New Zealand

00:45:12.980 are there

00:45:14.740 governors really

00:45:15.640 strong compared

00:45:16.560 to the federal

00:45:17.120 government I

00:45:18.320 don't know but

00:45:18.860 you better compare

00:45:19.440 that stuff how

00:45:20.760 about whether

00:45:21.340 they use

00:45:21.820 hydroxychloroquine

00:45:23.000 early and often

00:45:24.420 well that's a

00:45:25.760 little hard because

00:45:26.740 the other factor is

00:45:27.680 how good is their

00:45:28.380 data the first

00:45:29.940 thing I heard

00:45:30.620 about Germany

00:45:31.320 in the very first

00:45:33.300 days of the

00:45:33.940 pandemic what I

00:45:35.580 heard through just

00:45:36.480 my own channels

00:45:37.700 is that Germany

00:45:39.200 was widely

00:45:40.000 prescribing

00:45:40.720 hydroxychloroquine

00:45:41.940 from the start

00:45:42.780 because Bayer

00:45:44.180 a big German

00:45:45.300 company makes it

00:45:46.340 so they have

00:45:47.700 you know one of

00:45:48.300 their major

00:45:48.740 companies makes

00:45:49.880 hydroxychloroquine

00:45:50.940 the doctors were

00:45:52.280 handing it out

00:45:52.860 like candy

00:45:53.440 that's what I

00:45:54.660 heard later I

00:45:56.580 heard conflicting

00:45:57.520 information about

00:45:58.580 their their use

00:45:59.700 of it so can

00:46:01.640 you trust the

00:46:02.260 data do you

00:46:03.700 know what

00:46:04.560 countries used

00:46:05.400 hydroxychloroquine

00:46:06.580 which doctors

00:46:07.800 prescribed it

00:46:08.680 how early they

00:46:09.780 prescribed it

00:46:10.620 you don't so

00:46:12.340 you don't know

00:46:12.840 about hydroxychloroquine

00:46:14.220 because in general

00:46:15.320 and this is another

00:46:16.080 category how

00:46:17.260 credible is the

00:46:18.100 data from that

00:46:18.740 country don't

00:46:20.380 know what

00:46:22.540 about when

00:46:24.360 they got their

00:46:24.940 first infection

00:46:25.780 and how big it

00:46:26.900 was if your

00:46:28.400 first infection

00:46:29.240 came to you from

00:46:30.040 two different

00:46:30.600 coasts and by

00:46:31.740 the time you were

00:46:32.320 onto it it had

00:46:33.120 already spread

00:46:33.800 well you're in

00:46:35.060 bad shape

00:46:35.700 but suppose

00:46:36.780 you're sitting

00:46:37.240 down there in

00:46:37.740 New Zealand

00:46:38.200 and you see

00:46:38.920 what's happening

00:46:39.400 to the other

00:46:39.920 countries

00:46:40.360 do you have

00:46:41.580 an advantage

00:46:42.180 you do

00:46:43.360 if it hasn't

00:46:44.920 hit you yet

00:46:45.780 and you know

00:46:46.660 exactly what's

00:46:47.480 coming

00:46:47.760 you have a

00:46:49.040 little bit of

00:46:49.440 advantage to

00:46:50.140 prepare

00:46:50.540 how about if

00:46:52.580 you're an

00:46:52.940 international hub

00:46:53.860 for travel

00:46:54.620 that's got to

00:46:55.420 matter

00:46:55.660 how about

00:46:56.780 how your

00:46:57.920 seniors are

00:46:58.740 cared for

00:46:59.260 do you do it

00:47:00.040 the same way

00:47:00.680 do you have

00:47:01.360 senior homes

00:47:02.100 or do you

00:47:02.560 care for them

00:47:03.120 do you keep

00:47:04.060 Graham at

00:47:04.500 home

00:47:04.800 is that your

00:47:05.260 culture

00:47:05.620 that matters

00:47:06.320 how about

00:47:07.200 this one

00:47:07.660 there's a new

00:47:08.360 one I'm going

00:47:08.740 to throw into

00:47:09.200 the mix

00:47:09.620 the number

00:47:10.660 of sex

00:47:11.640 partners

00:47:12.200 you have

00:47:13.460 on average

00:47:14.200 do you know

00:47:15.660 how much

00:47:16.140 sex they have 0.93

00:47:17.380 in Brazil

00:47:18.040 Brazil's not 1.00

00:47:19.440 doing too well

00:47:20.100 right

00:47:20.360 do you know

00:47:21.520 how much

00:47:21.800 sex they have 0.93

00:47:22.560 in Brazil

00:47:23.020 a lot more

00:47:25.140 than Japan

00:47:25.740 all right

00:47:26.980 look it up

00:47:28.180 Brazil is

00:47:29.640 near the top

00:47:30.500 of the number

00:47:31.180 of partners

00:47:31.820 and amount

00:47:32.460 of sex

00:47:32.980 you can have

00:47:34.220 they have

00:47:35.020 a lot of

00:47:35.640 sex in Brazil

00:47:36.360 Japan

00:47:37.980 not so much

00:47:39.840 now if you

00:47:41.040 get this from

00:47:41.760 close personal

00:47:42.860 contact

00:47:43.480 it's not exactly

00:47:44.880 a sexually

00:47:45.580 transmitted disease

00:47:46.720 but it kind

00:47:47.360 of is

00:47:47.900 because if you

00:47:49.260 have close

00:47:50.000 physical contact

00:47:51.140 well

00:47:51.800 so can you

00:47:53.440 compare countries

00:47:54.280 with high sex

00:47:55.100 rates to low

00:47:55.940 I don't think

00:47:57.320 so

00:47:57.600 how about

00:47:58.500 the fake

00:47:58.940 news effect

00:47:59.640 we don't know

00:48:00.540 exactly

00:48:01.020 what that

00:48:02.660 influenced

00:48:03.640 but it certainly

00:48:04.840 influenced the

00:48:05.640 rate of

00:48:06.060 hydroxychloroquine

00:48:07.060 use in this

00:48:07.900 country

00:48:08.220 it definitely

00:48:09.240 influenced

00:48:10.020 the

00:48:10.620 debate

00:48:12.160 on masks

00:48:13.260 so if you

00:48:14.700 don't have

00:48:15.160 much fake

00:48:15.960 news in your

00:48:16.520 country

00:48:16.880 isn't that

00:48:17.840 a big advantage

00:48:18.600 does New

00:48:20.320 Zealand have 1.00

00:48:20.920 as much

00:48:21.300 fake news

00:48:22.020 as we do

00:48:22.560 I doubt

00:48:23.700 it

00:48:23.980 I doubt

00:48:25.560 it

00:48:25.860 so that's

00:48:27.580 got to

00:48:27.820 help

00:48:28.080 how about

00:48:29.020 your privacy

00:48:29.960 limits

00:48:30.580 in China

00:48:31.760 no limit

00:48:32.380 on privacy

00:48:33.040 they can

00:48:34.320 I mean

00:48:34.900 no limit

00:48:35.380 on lack

00:48:35.860 of privacy

00:48:36.320 the government

00:48:37.620 can take

00:48:38.120 all your

00:48:38.640 privacy

00:48:39.080 they want

00:48:39.700 how about

00:48:40.880 the United

00:48:41.340 States

00:48:41.860 opposite

00:48:42.680 opposite

00:48:43.800 we'll die

00:48:45.020 to survive

00:48:45.760 we'll die

00:48:46.540 to keep

00:48:46.960 our privacy

00:48:47.540 in China

00:48:49.720 they might

00:48:50.120 die too

00:48:50.640 but the

00:48:51.300 government

00:48:51.720 would kill

00:48:52.160 them so

00:48:52.660 that wouldn't

00:48:53.820 be a problem

00:48:54.320 for China's

00:48:55.540 government

00:48:55.880 then how

00:48:59.660 about

00:48:59.940 the lying

00:49:01.000 about

00:49:01.320 contact

00:49:01.840 tracing

00:49:02.260 if you

00:49:03.800 have never

00:49:04.220 lived in

00:49:04.720 the real

00:49:05.080 world

00:49:05.460 as an

00:49:06.320 adult

00:49:06.820 who worked

00:49:08.100 for a

00:49:08.420 big

00:49:08.580 organization

00:49:09.260 you would

00:49:10.420 probably

00:49:10.900 think this

00:49:11.840 and be

00:49:12.480 completely

00:49:12.960 wrong

00:49:13.380 hey

00:49:14.240 there are

00:49:15.200 some

00:49:15.440 countries

00:49:15.820 who are

00:49:16.160 doing a

00:49:16.560 good job

00:49:17.080 of contact

00:49:17.840 tracing

00:49:18.280 and some

00:49:19.480 like the

00:49:20.280 United States

00:49:20.920 who are

00:49:21.660 not

00:49:22.060 if you

00:49:22.860 think

00:49:23.200 that's

00:49:23.640 true

00:49:24.100 some

00:49:25.380 countries

00:49:25.820 are doing

00:49:26.260 good

00:49:26.700 on

00:49:26.960 contact

00:49:27.460 tracing

00:49:27.960 and others

00:49:29.280 are not

00:49:29.900 you've never

00:49:30.880 lived in the

00:49:31.520 real world

00:49:32.180 here is what

00:49:33.260 is far

00:49:34.000 more likely

00:49:34.680 to be

00:49:35.060 true

00:49:35.380 nobody's

00:49:36.840 good at

00:49:37.160 contact

00:49:37.620 tracing

00:49:38.100 unless

00:49:39.140 you're a

00:49:39.540 super

00:49:39.760 small

00:49:40.120 country

00:49:40.500 and you

00:49:40.900 just

00:49:41.060 had a

00:49:41.340 few

00:49:41.500 infections

00:49:42.100 then in

00:49:42.840 that case

00:49:43.200 it might

00:49:43.460 be a

00:49:43.680 thing

00:49:43.880 but if

00:49:45.360 you take

00:49:45.680 out the

00:49:46.180 smallest

00:49:46.840 of the

00:49:47.320 cases

00:49:47.660 where it

00:49:48.300 might

00:49:48.420 actually

00:49:48.740 work

00:49:49.100 anybody

00:49:50.360 else

00:49:50.820 who got

00:49:51.120 a hold

00:49:51.460 on this

00:49:51.820 virus

00:49:52.300 is going

00:49:53.220 to claim

00:49:54.080 that it's

00:49:55.120 because of

00:49:55.660 what they

00:49:56.040 did

00:49:56.560 that's

00:49:57.520 what

00:49:57.700 leaders

00:49:58.100 do

00:49:58.500 if the

00:49:59.580 leader

00:49:59.860 had said

00:50:00.480 I'm going

00:50:01.400 to dunk

00:50:02.080 my head

00:50:02.700 in a

00:50:03.540 bowl

00:50:03.760 of water

00:50:04.280 swirl

00:50:05.880 my hair

00:50:06.400 around

00:50:06.780 and see

00:50:07.820 if that

00:50:08.140 makes the

00:50:08.580 coronavirus

00:50:08.980 go away

00:50:09.920 and other

00:50:11.480 things that

00:50:12.040 country did

00:50:12.660 actually did

00:50:13.340 make the

00:50:13.740 virus go

00:50:14.760 away

00:50:15.060 what will

00:50:15.960 the leader

00:50:16.400 claim

00:50:16.920 will the

00:50:17.820 leader

00:50:18.040 claim

00:50:18.420 huh

00:50:18.780 I did

00:50:19.580 this

00:50:19.820 thing

00:50:20.140 I put

00:50:20.440 my head

00:50:20.740 in a

00:50:20.980 bowl

00:50:21.160 of water

00:50:21.560 shook

00:50:22.320 my head

00:50:22.700 after I

00:50:23.060 took

00:50:23.200 it

00:50:23.320 out

00:50:23.560 and I

00:50:24.980 guess

00:50:25.140 that

00:50:25.320 didn't

00:50:25.540 make

00:50:25.760 any

00:50:26.040 difference

00:50:26.400 to the

00:50:26.800 coronavirus

00:50:27.200 no

00:50:28.500 leaders

00:50:29.460 don't

00:50:29.920 do

00:50:30.100 that

00:50:30.420 they

00:50:30.980 tell

00:50:31.280 you

00:50:31.680 they

00:50:32.280 tell

00:50:32.520 the

00:50:32.740 news

00:50:33.140 and then

00:50:33.480 the

00:50:33.640 news

00:50:33.880 tells

00:50:34.180 you

00:50:34.420 it's

00:50:34.980 a

00:50:35.140 good

00:50:35.300 thing

00:50:35.540 I

00:50:35.700 stuck

00:50:35.960 my

00:50:36.160 head

00:50:36.340 in

00:50:36.460 a

00:50:36.580 bucket

00:50:36.800 of

00:50:36.960 water

00:50:37.240 or

00:50:37.780 look

00:50:38.000 at

00:50:38.100 the

00:50:38.220 trouble

00:50:38.480 we'd

00:50:38.800 have

00:50:39.100 leaders

00:50:40.040 try

00:50:40.720 to

00:50:40.960 connect

00:50:41.320 what

00:50:41.620 they

00:50:41.860 did

00:50:42.420 to

00:50:43.420 any

00:50:43.720 good

00:50:44.160 outcome

00:50:44.900 if

00:50:45.480 you

00:50:45.660 don't

00:50:45.960 know

00:50:46.240 that

00:50:46.620 that

00:50:47.060 that's

00:50:47.320 a

00:50:47.460 universal

00:50:48.020 truth

00:50:48.540 then

00:50:49.140 you

00:50:49.340 might

00:50:49.580 be

00:50:49.760 mistaken

00:50:50.260 and

00:50:50.620 think

00:50:50.920 some

00:50:51.620 countries

00:50:52.140 did

00:50:52.860 contact

00:50:53.500 tracing

00:50:53.960 really

00:50:54.480 well

00:50:54.860 it's

00:50:56.160 not a

00:50:56.620 thing

00:50:56.920 it's

00:50:58.160 not a

00:50:58.580 thing

00:50:58.820 no

00:50:59.700 large

00:51:00.460 country

00:51:01.200 is

00:51:02.580 doing

00:51:02.920 contact

00:51:03.540 tracing

00:51:03.980 well

00:51:04.400 they're

00:51:06.040 not

00:51:06.340 now

00:51:07.020 the

00:51:07.700 exception

00:51:08.220 might be

00:51:08.840 a

00:51:09.120 no

00:51:09.400 privacy

00:51:09.880 country

00:51:10.320 like

00:51:10.600 China

00:51:10.960 they

00:51:11.240 could

00:51:11.360 just

00:51:11.520 look

00:51:11.700 at

00:51:11.800 your

00:51:11.940 phone

00:51:12.260 and

00:51:12.900 they

00:51:13.040 can

00:51:13.160 just

00:51:13.360 say

00:51:13.600 hey

00:51:14.100 you

00:51:14.300 were

00:51:14.460 within

00:51:14.720 a

00:51:14.920 mile

00:51:15.200 of

00:51:15.400 somebody

00:51:15.680 who

00:51:15.800 had

00:51:15.880 the

00:51:16.020 coronavirus

00:51:16.380 so

00:51:17.420 we're

00:51:17.620 going

00:51:17.760 to

00:51:18.260 board

00:51:18.540 you

00:51:18.720 up

00:51:18.860 in

00:51:18.940 your

00:51:19.060 house

00:51:19.360 for

00:51:19.520 three

00:51:19.800 weeks

00:51:20.180 you

00:51:21.020 can't

00:51:21.300 do

00:51:21.420 that

00:51:21.600 in

00:51:21.700 the

00:51:21.740 United

00:51:21.960 States

00:51:22.420 so

00:51:23.000 comparing

00:51:23.440 China

00:51:23.860 to

00:51:24.040 the

00:51:24.160 United

00:51:24.360 States

00:51:24.660 is

00:51:24.860 just

00:51:25.080 stupid 0.75

00:51:25.540 because

00:51:26.660 there's

00:51:27.340 so many

00:51:27.620 differences

00:51:28.040 how about

00:51:30.200 this

00:51:30.540 how about

00:51:31.680 which

00:51:32.140 type

00:51:32.560 of

00:51:32.780 coronavirus

00:51:33.420 you

00:51:34.140 got

00:51:34.440 early

00:51:34.860 now

00:51:35.720 we

00:51:35.860 heard

00:51:36.060 a

00:51:36.280 little

00:51:36.460 about

00:51:36.780 this

00:51:37.160 in

00:51:37.560 the

00:51:37.700 beginning

00:51:38.020 remember

00:51:38.700 and I

00:51:39.220 haven't

00:51:39.400 heard

00:51:39.540 much

00:51:39.800 about

00:51:40.000 it

00:51:40.120 lately

00:51:40.380 so

00:51:41.140 it

00:51:41.280 could

00:51:41.420 be

00:51:41.560 that

00:51:41.740 this

00:51:41.940 doesn't

00:51:42.260 matter

00:51:42.580 but

00:51:43.380 didn't

00:51:43.640 we

00:51:43.800 hear

00:51:44.020 that

00:51:44.240 there

00:51:44.400 might

00:51:44.560 be

00:51:44.680 a

00:51:44.780 different

00:51:45.020 form

00:51:45.540 of

00:51:45.680 the

00:51:45.800 virus

00:51:46.160 on

00:51:46.400 the

00:51:46.560 west

00:51:46.800 coast

00:51:47.180 of

00:51:47.340 the

00:51:47.440 United

00:51:47.620 States

00:51:48.020 than

00:51:48.260 we

00:51:48.420 got

00:51:48.600 in

00:51:48.720 New

00:51:48.840 York

00:51:49.000 City

00:51:49.300 one

00:51:50.160 might

00:51:50.360 have

00:51:50.520 a

00:51:50.620 different

00:51:50.840 characteristic

00:51:51.480 in

00:51:51.820 terms

00:51:52.080 of

00:51:52.220 spread

00:51:52.600 and

00:51:52.800 lethality

00:51:53.440 I don't

00:51:54.240 know

00:51:54.380 if

00:51:54.500 that's

00:51:54.720 still

00:51:54.920 true

00:51:55.220 so

00:51:55.600 I

00:51:55.720 feel

00:51:55.900 like

00:51:56.080 my

00:51:56.300 knowledge

00:51:56.680 is

00:51:56.900 stale

00:51:57.160 on

00:51:57.340 that

00:51:57.540 but

00:51:58.980 it

00:51:59.080 could

00:51:59.180 be

00:51:59.300 a

00:51:59.400 factor

00:51:59.620 and

00:52:00.460 then

00:52:00.720 how

00:52:01.000 about

00:52:01.200 comorbidities

00:52:02.140 does

00:52:03.640 your

00:52:03.820 country

00:52:04.200 I mean

00:52:04.600 this is

00:52:04.900 related

00:52:05.240 to

00:52:05.420 age

00:52:05.700 but

00:52:05.920 does

00:52:06.160 your

00:52:06.300 country

00:52:06.560 have

00:52:06.780 a

00:52:06.960 lot

00:52:07.360 of

00:52:07.480 other

00:52:07.700 health

00:52:07.920 problems

00:52:08.340 etc

00:52:08.780 so

00:52:09.500 if

00:52:09.780 you

00:52:09.900 don't

00:52:10.060 know

00:52:10.220 all

00:52:10.420 of

00:52:10.520 those

00:52:10.700 things

00:52:11.060 comparing

00:52:11.480 two

00:52:11.720 countries

00:52:12.080 is

00:52:12.540 crazy

00:52:13.280 let's

00:52:14.200 talk

00:52:14.400 about

00:52:14.620 this

00:52:14.880 Lebanon

00:52:15.920 blast

00:52:16.620 get

00:52:18.040 back

00:52:18.300 to

00:52:18.460 that

00:52:18.740 I've

00:52:20.660 developed

00:52:20.980 a number

00:52:21.400 of

00:52:21.660 go-to

00:52:22.180 people

00:52:22.560 for

00:52:22.840 different

00:52:23.240 topics

00:52:23.960 and

00:52:24.400 my

00:52:24.660 go-to

00:52:25.160 person

00:52:25.600 for

00:52:26.020 the

00:52:26.940 Middle 0.95

00:52:27.180 least

00:52:27.500 especially

00:52:28.060 when

00:52:28.400 Israel

00:52:28.840 is

00:52:29.220 any

00:52:29.480 part

00:52:29.700 of

00:52:29.780 the

00:52:29.900 conversation

00:52:30.400 is

00:52:30.780 Jake

00:52:31.180 Novak

00:52:31.800 so

00:52:35.300 you

00:52:35.540 should

00:52:35.700 follow

00:52:35.940 Jake

00:52:36.200 Novak

00:52:36.720 as

00:52:37.500 one

00:52:37.720 of

00:52:37.880 your

00:52:38.260 clearest

00:52:39.640 voices

00:52:40.320 not

00:52:41.180 only

00:52:41.440 of

00:52:41.600 business

00:52:42.100 stuff

00:52:42.600 but

00:52:42.940 of

00:52:43.200 Israel

00:52:44.600 and

00:52:45.840 as

00:52:48.280 Jake

00:52:48.580 has

00:52:48.780 noted

00:52:49.120 and

00:52:51.900 I

00:52:52.040 don't

00:52:52.180 know

00:52:52.320 where

00:52:52.480 he's

00:52:52.640 getting

00:52:52.840 this

00:52:53.040 information

00:52:53.460 but

00:52:53.720 he

00:52:53.880 generally

00:52:54.260 has

00:52:54.620 good

00:52:54.800 information

00:52:55.240 so

00:52:55.500 I

00:52:55.640 would

00:52:55.780 trust

00:52:56.120 it

00:52:56.380 he

00:52:56.940 said

00:52:57.200 almost

00:52:57.520 all

00:52:57.740 the

00:52:57.840 people

00:52:58.040 of

00:52:58.200 Lebanon

00:52:58.480 are

00:52:58.860 rightfully

00:52:59.400 blaming

00:52:59.800 Hezbollah

00:53:00.400 for

00:53:00.980 the

00:53:01.120 blast

00:53:01.540 and

00:53:02.500 their

00:53:02.720 Iran

00:53:03.220 compliant

00:53:03.720 government

00:53:04.340 not

00:53:05.360 Israel

00:53:05.900 or

00:53:07.280 the

00:53:07.440 United

00:53:07.680 States

00:53:08.140 and

00:53:10.100 Jake

00:53:10.700 says

00:53:10.920 I

00:53:11.060 wonder

00:53:11.200 how

00:53:11.360 many

00:53:11.540 people

00:53:11.720 realize

00:53:12.480 how

00:53:12.740 historic

00:53:13.440 and

00:53:13.740 encouraging

00:53:14.240 this

00:53:14.580 is

00:53:14.900 and

00:53:15.800 I

00:53:16.000 didn't

00:53:16.180 know

00:53:16.380 this

00:53:16.640 did

00:53:16.820 you

00:53:17.020 didn't

00:53:18.060 you

00:53:18.260 just

00:53:18.620 assume

00:53:19.260 that

00:53:20.480 the

00:53:20.660 residents

00:53:21.160 of

00:53:21.740 Beirut

00:53:22.520 would

00:53:22.760 say

00:53:23.000 it's

00:53:23.880 got

00:53:24.020 to

00:53:24.100 be

00:53:24.260 some

00:53:24.500 Israeli

00:53:25.000 thing

00:53:25.400 or some

00:53:25.800 American

00:53:26.220 thing

00:53:26.620 death

00:53:27.520 to

00:53:27.720 America

00:53:28.120 but

00:53:29.180 you're

00:53:29.380 not

00:53:29.560 seeing

00:53:29.860 that

00:53:30.080 are

00:53:30.260 you

00:53:30.440 you're

00:53:31.100 not

00:53:31.240 seeing

00:53:31.480 that

00:53:31.660 at

00:53:31.820 all

00:53:32.060 this

00:53:33.020 is

00:53:33.200 a

00:53:33.380 big deal

00:53:33.960 as

00:53:34.320 Jake

00:53:34.620 says

00:53:35.060 this

00:53:35.820 is

00:53:35.980 a

00:53:36.160 big

00:53:36.780 big deal

00:53:38.640 like

00:53:39.580 this is

00:53:39.920 one of the

00:53:40.320 biggest

00:53:40.600 deals

00:53:41.020 of all

00:53:42.000 the

00:53:42.160 deals

00:53:42.540 this

00:53:43.680 might be

00:53:44.000 the

00:53:44.120 biggest

00:53:44.360 one

00:53:44.640 and

00:53:45.420 you

00:53:45.540 know

00:53:45.660 it's

00:53:45.860 the

00:53:46.220 dog

00:53:46.500 that

00:53:46.680 didn't

00:53:46.980 bark

00:53:47.300 so

00:53:48.040 it's

00:53:48.180 harder

00:53:48.420 to

00:53:48.640 see

00:53:48.760 the

00:53:48.920 dog

00:53:49.140 that

00:53:49.300 didn't

00:53:49.620 bark

00:53:49.920 so

00:53:50.380 and Jake

00:53:51.020 is good

00:53:51.360 at

00:53:51.480 that

00:53:51.740 so

00:53:52.600 yeah

00:53:53.380 the fact

00:53:53.860 that they're

00:53:54.220 not

00:53:54.560 protesting

00:53:55.200 Israel

00:53:55.680 and the

00:53:55.940 United

00:53:56.140 States

00:53:56.520 after

00:53:57.260 something

00:53:57.720 big

00:53:58.060 blew up

00:53:58.640 in their

00:53:58.920 country

00:53:59.360 blaming

00:54:01.080 Iran

00:54:01.540 that's

00:54:02.860 gigantic

00:54:03.900 gigantic

00:54:05.680 anyway

00:54:07.660 yes

00:54:10.360 there's a

00:54:10.720 story that

00:54:11.240 Simon Cowell

00:54:12.320 was testing

00:54:13.360 his new

00:54:13.960 e-bike

00:54:14.660 and fell

00:54:15.920 off in his

00:54:16.460 driveway

00:54:16.780 and broke

00:54:17.420 his back

00:54:17.980 I know

00:54:19.300 I know

00:54:19.760 I've been

00:54:20.180 promoting

00:54:20.560 these

00:54:20.920 e-bikes

00:54:21.440 as the

00:54:22.480 future

00:54:22.800 of

00:54:23.000 transportation

00:54:23.620 and they

00:54:24.220 really are

00:54:24.860 you gotta

00:54:26.000 get one

00:54:26.440 of these

00:54:26.700 things

00:54:26.980 if you

00:54:27.720 have any

00:54:28.080 chance

00:54:28.520 you know

00:54:29.020 financially

00:54:29.660 that you

00:54:30.100 could pull

00:54:30.480 it off

00:54:30.860 and you

00:54:31.100 like

00:54:31.300 bicycles

00:54:31.820 they are

00:54:33.280 dangerous

00:54:33.680 though

00:54:33.940 bicycles

00:54:34.480 are crazy

00:54:35.280 dangerous

00:54:35.860 it was

00:54:36.620 the reason

00:54:37.020 I almost

00:54:37.540 didn't get

00:54:38.000 one

00:54:38.240 and I

00:54:39.120 gotta tell

00:54:39.520 you

00:54:39.680 that if

00:54:40.100 I had

00:54:41.600 only had

00:54:42.400 regular

00:54:42.960 bicycles

00:54:43.560 probably

00:54:45.040 I would

00:54:45.460 have said

00:54:45.820 at my

00:54:47.200 age

00:54:47.600 especially

00:54:48.120 maybe a

00:54:49.360 little too

00:54:49.700 dangerous

00:54:50.200 but when

00:54:51.100 you add

00:54:51.360 the e-bike

00:54:51.980 feature

00:54:52.560 it's just

00:54:53.280 so much

00:54:53.680 fun that

00:54:54.140 you're

00:54:54.320 willing to

00:54:54.680 take a

00:54:55.000 lot of

00:54:55.240 danger

00:54:55.580 so

00:54:57.760 don't

00:54:58.800 break your

00:54:59.200 back on

00:54:59.720 your

00:54:59.980 e-bike

00:55:00.960 so there's

00:55:04.000 a report

00:55:04.580 that

00:55:05.040 twitter

00:55:05.760 is

00:55:07.020 mulling

00:55:07.580 over

00:55:07.760 the

00:55:07.920 conversation

00:55:08.500 of

00:55:09.300 buying

00:55:09.600 tiktok

00:55:10.260 what do

00:55:11.320 you think

00:55:11.520 of that

00:55:11.900 my take

00:55:12.780 on that

00:55:13.200 is that

00:55:13.640 that's

00:55:13.980 probably

00:55:14.940 a

00:55:15.680 just a

00:55:17.080 polite

00:55:17.540 meeting

00:55:18.080 my guess

00:55:19.340 is that

00:55:19.740 twitter

00:55:21.260 is not

00:55:22.060 serious

00:55:22.540 about

00:55:22.900 buying

00:55:23.260 tiktok

00:55:23.800 but

00:55:24.720 if you're

00:55:25.500 a big

00:55:25.780 social media

00:55:26.480 platform

00:55:26.940 you probably

00:55:28.200 feel like

00:55:28.700 you have

00:55:28.980 to be

00:55:29.420 at least

00:55:29.980 a participant

00:55:30.820 in the

00:55:31.320 conversation

00:55:31.920 you would

00:55:32.860 have to

00:55:33.160 at least

00:55:33.580 hear the

00:55:34.720 details

00:55:35.200 before you

00:55:36.340 said no

00:55:36.920 so my

00:55:37.960 guess is

00:55:38.500 that twitter

00:55:38.980 is just

00:55:39.700 being a

00:55:41.100 good

00:55:41.400 good citizens

00:55:42.940 basically

00:55:43.580 and saying

00:55:44.580 well

00:55:44.900 we're in the

00:55:46.280 United States

00:55:47.100 we're an

00:55:47.920 American company

00:55:48.760 there are only

00:55:50.200 few companies

00:55:50.840 in the world

00:55:51.440 who could

00:55:51.880 take over

00:55:52.360 tiktok

00:55:52.980 so we

00:55:53.720 should at

00:55:54.020 least take

00:55:54.400 a meeting

00:55:54.780 i'm guessing

00:55:55.880 it's not

00:55:56.300 that serious

00:55:56.980 because i

00:55:57.660 don't think

00:55:57.960 it fits

00:55:58.480 well

00:55:58.780 because twitter

00:56:00.720 skews 0.99

00:56:02.200 more adult

00:56:03.100 tiktok

00:56:04.480 obviously

00:56:05.240 skews 0.99

00:56:05.860 way to

00:56:06.660 the young

00:56:07.040 side

00:56:07.380 it doesn't

00:56:08.340 feel like

00:56:08.640 it fits

00:56:09.040 snapchat

00:56:10.440 probably doesn't

00:56:11.340 need to buy

00:56:11.840 them because

00:56:12.300 they're going

00:56:12.640 to knock

00:56:12.980 them off

00:56:13.460 and just

00:56:13.780 reproduce

00:56:14.160 that function

00:56:14.880 i think

00:56:15.940 instagram's

00:56:16.740 going to

00:56:17.000 do the

00:56:17.300 same thing

00:56:17.800 i mean

00:56:18.140 why

00:56:18.460 wouldn't

00:56:18.700 they

00:56:18.880 so you

00:56:19.820 should

00:56:20.220 have

00:56:20.520 you know

00:56:20.920 the facebook

00:56:21.440 instagram

00:56:21.940 people

00:56:22.520 and the

00:56:23.620 snapchat

00:56:24.100 people just

00:56:24.660 basically

00:56:25.160 knocking

00:56:25.660 it off

00:56:26.740 and they

00:56:27.680 have enough

00:56:28.100 of a

00:56:28.380 platform

00:56:28.780 that they

00:56:29.380 have enough

00:56:29.780 of a

00:56:30.080 network

00:56:30.420 effect

00:56:30.760 that they

00:56:31.100 could get

00:56:31.420 it going

00:56:31.780 but how

00:56:32.900 about

00:56:33.040 microsoft

00:56:33.580 i would

00:56:34.900 think that

00:56:35.260 microsoft

00:56:35.680 would be

00:56:36.160 the most

00:56:36.520 natural

00:56:37.120 buyer

00:56:37.580 because that

00:56:38.600 would get

00:56:38.920 them into

00:56:39.440 some kind

00:56:40.020 of social

00:56:40.560 media

00:56:40.880 platform

00:56:41.520 in a

00:56:41.820 bigger

00:56:42.000 way

00:56:42.300 do they

00:56:42.620 have any

00:56:42.960 does

00:56:43.780 microsoft

00:56:44.240 have a

00:56:45.200 am i

00:56:46.140 am i

00:56:46.700 blanking on

00:56:47.340 something that

00:56:47.860 microsoft is

00:56:48.560 doing in

00:56:49.060 terms of

00:56:49.420 social

00:56:49.900 networks

00:56:51.300 i feel like

00:56:52.820 they're doing

00:56:53.120 something that

00:56:53.760 i'm just

00:56:54.120 blanking on

00:56:54.780 well if they

00:56:55.760 don't have a

00:56:56.220 big social

00:56:56.700 media

00:56:57.020 platform

00:56:57.640 maybe this

00:57:00.300 is a way

00:57:00.580 to get

00:57:00.840 it

00:57:01.100 but i

00:57:01.720 don't know

00:57:01.940 what you're

00:57:02.200 buying when

00:57:02.680 you buy

00:57:02.960 tiktok

00:57:03.540 exactly

00:57:04.400 are you

00:57:05.260 buying just

00:57:05.780 the customers

00:57:06.640 you know

00:57:07.740 just the

00:57:08.060 customer list

00:57:08.760 is that it

00:57:09.280 oh

00:57:10.440 linkedin

00:57:10.940 yeah i'm

00:57:11.540 sorry

00:57:11.760 yes

00:57:12.660 that's what

00:57:13.480 i was

00:57:13.720 blanking on

00:57:14.300 is that

00:57:14.620 microsoft

00:57:15.000 now owns

00:57:15.840 linkedin

00:57:16.620 but that's a

00:57:17.460 different kind

00:57:17.900 of social

00:57:18.280 network

00:57:18.680 i wouldn't

00:57:21.900 call

00:57:30.020 couldn't

00:57:30.260 produce it

00:57:30.700 it was

00:57:30.840 linkedin

00:57:31.340 but

00:57:32.200 irrelevant to

00:57:33.900 the conversation

00:57:34.440 because it's

00:57:34.940 not the right

00:57:35.340 kind of social
