Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1279 Scott Adams： Lots of COVID-19 Good News and How to Deal With the Insurrection Hallucination

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, come on in, come on in. Thanks for getting here early. You know who you are,

00:00:10.300 all you early birds. Appreciate it. Today will be one of, one of the best coffees with Scott Adams

00:00:19.660 you've ever seen. Yep, there have been hundreds of them, but this will be one of the best.

00:00:26.060 I promise. And if you'd like to make this a better one, like even better than it's going to be,

00:00:33.520 and you wouldn't even have to do this. I mean, this is just extra. You wouldn't even need to

00:00:39.100 have the simultaneous sip today, but don't worry, you'll have one. And all you need is a cup or mug or

00:00:44.280 a glass of tank or chalice or stein or canteen jug or flask with a vessel of any kind. Fill it with

00:00:48.540 your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine

00:00:54.740 hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better, including the coronavirus. Got some good

00:00:59.460 news today. Go. Yeah, I can feel the pandemic receding. So let's start with the good news.

00:01:13.480 Do you want, how about all good news today? I think I can deliver that actually. I think I might actually

00:01:19.180 be giving you all good news today. I think. No, that's not true. But let's start with the good

00:01:25.600 news. Israel has shown that the viral load from COVID was reduced fourfold on average for people

00:01:36.060 who had already gotten the vaccination. So big question was this, the big question. If you get

00:01:44.280 the vaccination, are you still a carrier of the virus? And the answer is yes, but not so much.

00:01:52.800 So it matters how much. And the good news is that the vaccination does exactly what you would think

00:01:59.060 it would do. It greatly reduces the amount of virus in the person and therefore presumably would

00:02:05.600 greatly reduce the amount of viral infections. So not only will the vaccinations reduce the number

00:02:14.140 of deaths and hospitalizations, but it will also decrease the amount of spread. Apparently a lot.

00:02:23.400 We don't know the exact number, but if it's a fourfold decrease in virus, that's probably a lot.

00:02:30.700 Probably a lot. Here's the other good news. There was a randomized controlled study.

00:02:36.280 That's the good kind, the kind that you should pay attention to. Now, if there's only one of them,

00:02:41.760 you still would like to see some confirmation from at least one other study. But having even one

00:02:49.620 peer-reviewed randomized controlled study is better than none. Better than none. And one of the things

00:02:56.420 that they found is that this drug called budesonide looks like it can reduce the risk of hospitalization

00:03:05.580 by 90% if you get it early. Did you just hear that? There's a common already available drug.

00:03:14.840 How available is it? I have some right here. Now, this is a prescription and I use it for a different

00:03:23.840 purpose. What I use it for is I had sinus surgery last summer. And to keep my sinuses open,

00:03:33.840 it's a kind of a cordosteroid thing, I think. And it just keeps polyps from forming in my sinus.

00:03:41.140 So I use a different form of it. I don't use the inhalant. I use a liquid form that I put in a

00:03:46.080 neti pot, blah, blah, blah. But the point is, this is a common drug that asthmatics use. I don't use it 1.00

00:03:54.660 for that. I have asthma, coincidentally. But if this is true, and it is a randomized controlled

00:04:03.640 trial, right? And randomized controlled trials are pretty good. And even if it were not randomized

00:04:12.440 and controlled, if you get something like a 90% difference, I mean, you don't even need many

00:04:18.480 controls to know you got something if you've got a 90% difference. If you had a 20% difference,

00:04:26.080 then I'd be worrying about the quality of the study and, you know, all the details. But a 90%

00:04:31.360 difference? A 90% difference in a randomized controlled trial? I don't know how that could

00:04:38.780 be wrong. I mean, anything's possible, right? But it's hard to imagine that could be wrong.

00:04:43.320 So, here's the good news for the country. The good news is, we may have a widely available

00:04:50.580 drug that takes 90% of the risk away from people who have early symptoms,

00:04:57.420 which in conjunction with the vaccinations, this is the best place we've ever been.

00:05:05.140 This is the best place we've ever been. Somebody's saying that Budesonite is sold under the brand

00:05:13.860 name Pulmacourt. That sounds right. I think that's right. So, here's the bad news. I already take

00:05:24.300 some just prescription meds, like one for acid reflux, etc. And some of my meds were very restricted

00:05:32.060 for the past year or so, because the pandemic made it hard to get meds. Now, I don't know where

00:05:39.380 this is manufactured. The company is CIPLA. Let's see if it tells me somewhere where it's manufactured.

00:05:51.040 Oh, fuck. I did not see this coming. 0.99

00:05:56.180 You ready for this?

00:06:01.940 This drug, Budesonite, now this is the suspension type, so I assume that they also make the inhalant,

00:06:12.020 but at least they have access to the drug. A company called CIPLA, C-I-P-L-A.

00:06:17.520 And if it's true that this can reduce, you know, the risk of hospitalizations by 90%,

00:06:24.680 this is made, manufactured for CIPLA, wait, manufactured by CIPLA, so it's an American

00:06:37.560 company, but it's manufactured in India. Manufactured in India, but an American company.

00:06:44.700 So, can an American company control how much we get from India? I would imagine India is

00:06:52.040 going to clamp down on their control now. So, what we don't know is where the raw materials come from.

00:07:00.680 Maybe that's a problem. The precursors would be a problem. You know, the chemicals that go into

00:07:05.400 making this chemical, they might come from China, so we'll see. But at least it's a friendly nation,

00:07:11.760 India. So, that's better than China. All right. I mean, this is the best day. It is the best day 0.98

00:07:22.240 for the pandemic. It's the best day. This is the day that it looks like a human ingenuity

00:07:29.980 just built the nuclear bomb. It's like World War II, and the Manhattan Project just came in.

00:07:39.040 So, the vaccinations were kind of the Manhattan Project, but they needed this other thing. What

00:07:46.200 you really needed was something that would also treat the people who got it, not just the vaccination.

00:07:54.160 And we might have it. We might have it. Now, the bad news is, if this drug is unavailable to me,

00:08:00.360 I won't be able to breathe for the next year. So, the quality of my life may have just decreased

00:08:07.920 substantially. But the quality of the country will be substantially improved, and I'm willing to

00:08:15.320 take that trade off. I hope you would be too.

00:08:18.900 I hope it doesn't kill me. All right. Biden has a plan, apparently, to open only half of the schools

00:08:28.220 in the country, and only one day a week by the end of April.

00:08:33.560 Does that sound good enough to you? All right. I keep seeing in the comments people saying

00:08:38.980 hydroxychloroquine, hydroxychloroquine. Hydroxychloroquine did not have a randomized control trial.

00:08:46.080 If hydroxychloroquine had a randomized control trial, then we'd be talking about that. But we'll

00:08:56.220 see. You know, if you're being, if you're critical of the Budesonide story that it might turn out not

00:09:02.740 to be true, you could be right. It could turn out to not be true. But I'm going to go with optimism

00:09:10.500 for today. So Biden's plan is to open half of the schools by April one day a week, which is not

00:09:18.180 nearly enough. Doesn't really even address, I would say it doesn't address any of the problem, does it?

00:09:23.900 Do you think your kids are suddenly going to get healthy and smarter because school is open one day

00:09:28.440 a week? Not really. Somebody says CIPLA is in fact an Indian company. Well, I'm going to read the,

00:09:39.500 oh, you know, you might be right because the packaging is cleverly ambiguous. Here's what it

00:09:47.300 says. Manufactured for, colon, CIPLA USA. So it's manufactured for CIPLA USA. Does that mean it's

00:09:58.800 a U.S. company? Somebody say here's an Indian company. Could an Indian company just make the

00:10:06.020 name of their company, CIPLA USA? I think they could, right? There's nothing that would stop them

00:10:11.660 from doing that. So somebody says it is a U.S. subsidiary. Manufactured for an American subsidiary.

00:10:18.840 Well, so, okay. So it's something like that. We'll figure it out by the end of today. So I'm

00:10:24.300 wondering if Biden's plan, being very short of what the public wants, I mean, not even close to what the

00:10:30.860 public wants, I wonder if it's because of a lack of PPE and protective stuff. Is it a lack of funding?

00:10:37.600 Is that what the problem is? Because if so, then I think you could put some of that back on

00:10:42.580 the Trump administration, couldn't you? Because it's not today that they find themselves unprepared.

00:10:49.600 They've probably been unprepared for months. So if the reason that Biden can't open things is

00:10:55.620 because the schools are not funded well enough to have the preparations, that's a Trump administration

00:11:03.000 issue. Because they should have been ready by now, you know? And if they didn't give funding,

00:11:08.900 you've got to blame the boss. So Biden and Trump, I think, have to take some equal measure of this

00:11:16.080 being a complete failure. And I would say that the school reopening issue is a complete failure of

00:11:23.240 government. It's a complete failure of government. Because it's the teachers unions, as you know,

00:11:28.740 who are keeping schools closed, doing a good job maybe for their members. I can see why a union would

00:11:36.540 want to act that way. But the country is just getting strangled. If you have not observed yet a child

00:11:43.440 breaking down because of the current lack of social structure, where do you see it in person? Where do

00:11:53.480 you see what it's doing to kids? It's really messing with people. I would say that this week,

00:12:02.480 I like to consider myself mentally strong. And even if I'm not, I like to have that as my view of

00:12:12.160 myself because I think it maybe helps make me mentally stronger. If you believe you're mentally

00:12:17.280 strong, I think it helps be mentally stronger. But I got to say, this pandemic is starting to get to me.

00:12:27.160 I've had good days and bad days. But I got to say, if the pandemic is getting to me,

00:12:34.680 it's really messing with people who are not as, you know, I guess I'm complimenting myself here.

00:12:41.200 I feel like I am mentally strong. And if it's getting to me, I can only imagine what it's doing

00:12:48.500 to people who are in a worse situation. I mean, yeah. Tell me in the comments. Show me in the

00:12:54.720 comments where you're at. And let's say mental health wise. Where are you at mental health wise?

00:13:03.420 Let me show me in the comments.

00:13:04.740 I'm seeing lots of comments asking me to talk about ivermectin. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine,

00:13:14.640 it's the same story. There are reports that it's good, but we don't have the randomized controlled

00:13:22.100 trials to know. So I would not be betting anything on ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine at this point.

00:13:29.460 If either of them were the big deal that we hoped they were, we would know it by now. And we don't.

00:13:39.640 Oh, look at that. I'm looking at your comments and I'm actually impressed at how many of you are doing well,

00:13:46.760 but not all of you. Somebody's a 6 out of 10. Somebody says they're broken.

00:13:53.240 Somebody says about to break. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. We'll get through this.

00:14:05.220 So if you're close to breaking, hold on. You'll be glad you did. 7 out of 10, fine. Worse I've been so far.

00:14:14.940 Hmm. Sorry about that. If I wasn't crazy, I'd go insane. Yeah. Imagine being poor and living in a

00:14:28.720 cramped inner city housing. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I try to imagine how this is for people who are not as

00:14:37.020 fortunate as I am to be able to ride this out in relative luxury compared to other people. And I

00:14:44.500 almost can't imagine it. It's almost beyond my ability to imagine how bad this must be

00:14:49.680 for a pretty big segment of the country. Almost can't imagine it. I mean, but we're heading in the

00:14:56.800 right direction. All right. Here's my favorite story of the day. And I'll give you some background on

00:15:03.880 this. I think that we don't appreciate enough the value that our billionaire class brings to the

00:15:13.660 country. Because it's easy to hate the billionaires, right? Oh, the hedge fund guys.

00:15:20.240 The billionaires. Still know our money. So there's sort of an automatic reflex to be anti-billionaire.

00:15:28.960 I get that. And certainly not all of our billionaires are helping. But it is true that people who started

00:15:38.160 without money and made themselves billionaires doing, especially if they've done more than one

00:15:44.740 thing, right? If you've done more than one thing and it got you to be a billionaire, like, you know,

00:15:50.320 Elon Musk, perfect example. They have essentially proven themselves superior, let's say, observers of

00:15:59.360 reality and understanding how things work. That's how they became billionaires. Now, not all of them.

00:16:05.600 Some of them just inherited or whatever. But a lot of our billionaire class are really, really valuable

00:16:12.680 to the world and the country. Really valuable. And when you see, you know, Elon Musk recently

00:16:20.700 offered a hundred million dollar prize for the best carbon capture. How valuable is that? I mean,

00:16:28.420 seriously, he did something the government couldn't do. Because he could. Not only could he, but he was

00:16:36.560 smart enough to figure out what is the most important thing I could make a difference on. And then he did

00:16:42.580 it with a tweet. I'll give a hundred million dollars for the best carbon capture. And so it's no coincidence

00:16:53.580 when you see the billionaires doing things that are smarter than what your government is doing. That's

00:16:58.280 not a coincidence. There's no coincidence. That's what made them billionaires, that they can see reality

00:17:05.040 a little bit clearer and they're willing to act on it. Another example of this just made me laugh.

00:17:12.060 It's the smallest issue, but it again, it reinforces this idea that a lot of billionaires

00:17:19.800 became billionaires because they're really, really smart. Right? You know, whatever you want to say

00:17:28.020 about Mark Zuckerberg, the one thing you can't say about him is that he's a bad CEO. Right? He's one of

00:17:37.360 the best CEOs of all time. One of the best of all time. Even if you don't like what Facebook is doing. His

00:17:44.240 capability is just through the roof. It's crazy. And most people would agree with that. But here's my one of the

00:17:51.240 day. So apparently the Mavericks basketball team, Dallas Mavericks, they have not been playing the national

00:18:00.240 anthem before games. And people didn't notice for something like 12 or 13 games that they just

00:18:05.880 didn't play the national anthem. Now, of course, it wasn't a regular spectator situation because it was

00:18:11.300 reduced, reduced, you know, people in the stands and stuff. So it was unusual situation, but nobody

00:18:19.460 noticed 12 or 13 games. Nobody noticed that there was no national anthem. And then when they noticed,

00:18:28.840 the Mavericks admitted that it's a decision and that it was Mark Cuban's decision specifically as owner

00:18:36.900 of the team. Now, here's my question to you. For how long have we been, you know, yammering about

00:18:45.740 athletes kneeling and everybody's mad and it's making us, it's making us further apart and all

00:18:53.020 that? Who, and nobody who owned a team thought of this solution? How about we just don't play it?

00:19:04.060 Think about it. Why did nobody think of that solution? Why is Mark, why is Mark Cuban the only person

00:19:12.040 who owns a major team who thought of the only solution that's smart? They just don't play it?

00:19:18.820 Now, I ask you, what is the purpose? What's the purpose of playing the national anthem?

00:19:25.900 Well, one of the purposes is it's part of the propaganda brainwashing mechanism that any solid

00:19:33.960 country does. The Pledge of Allegiance is a brainwashing persuasion mechanism that I support 0.66

00:19:42.560 100%. Just because it's brainwashing doesn't make it wrong, right? It is absolute brainwashing.

00:19:53.280 That's what it is. It's invented for that purpose and it works for that purpose. That's why we do it.

00:19:59.140 So the flags and the symbols and the patriotism are part of the programming that keeps a country

00:20:05.600 unified and strong. You need it. You absolutely need it. You can't get rid of this brainwashing.

00:20:11.500 You wouldn't want to. Everything would fall apart without it. But given our current situation in which

00:20:19.400 the kneelers are dividing us, meaning some people are anti-kneeler because they take the message as

00:20:26.840 anti-patriotism as opposed to a message about the police. And so it divides us. What would be the

00:20:35.000 point of having a Pledge of Allegiance? Its entire purpose is to give us better unity, but once it

00:20:42.580 stops serving that purpose, why would you keep doing it? Why would you keep doing something for unity

00:20:50.660 that has exactly, obviously the opposite outcome at the moment? Now someday, someday they might go

00:20:59.340 back to it and that would be preferable. I think that'd be great. But at the moment, Mark Cuban is the

00:21:06.560 only smart person in the whole game. I didn't even think of this. Was there even one point that you said to

00:21:14.480 yourself, even one time during this whole controversy about kneeling for the National Anthem, was there

00:21:20.160 even one time you said to yourself, maybe they should just skip it? Maybe they should just skip it.

00:21:28.180 Probably not, right? But Mark Cuban did, and then he skipped it, and it worked out fine. Now,

00:21:35.400 some of you are mad because it would sound anti-American, anti-patriotic. It's not. It's not

00:21:44.880 anti-American. American is do what makes sense, don't be a fucking idiot. If I could give you one 1.00

00:21:53.420 explanation of what it means to be an American, it would be the following. Do what makes sense,

00:22:00.780 don't be a fucking idiot. That's it. That's like our, our entire national character could be summed up 1.00

00:22:07.920 in, do what makes sense. Stop being a fucking idiot. That's it. And Mark, Mark Cuban just did that. He 1.00

00:22:15.840 just did what makes sense. Because it doesn't make sense to do a thing for unity when you know for sure

00:22:21.700 it's doing the opposite. Everybody else just kept doing it. And not once did I say to myself,

00:22:29.100 maybe you shouldn't. Maybe just skip it. Now, if you're going to say he's being anti-patriotic or,

00:22:35.240 you know, agreeing with China or something, that's just crazy. This is just a simple fix to a simple 0.56

00:22:40.900 problem. Here's how you should handle the impeachment trial. Are you ready for some advice? I usually don't

00:22:50.540 give advice because nobody, nobody takes advice. It's like an imaginary process. But here's the

00:23:02.460 thing that's getting to me. If you, if you look at CNN, they'll say things usually in the opinion

00:23:08.480 place, but they'll say something that their readers don't know is not news because they can't sort out

00:23:14.800 opinion from real news. And they, they say just matter of factly that the president incited an

00:23:21.540 insurrection, just matter of factly, like, well, there's no question about that. The president

00:23:27.920 incited an insurrection. We'll just put that out there like it's true. And it's a fact. But here's

00:23:34.640 the thing. We're having this national process to impeach the president for inciting an insurrection.

00:23:40.500 But yet, obviously, there was no insurrection. Where, where was the insurrection? I know what

00:23:50.880 happened on January 6. I've seen the video, seen all the descriptions. I've seen the, you know, who's

00:23:56.800 been charged with what, but I haven't seen any insurrection. I haven't seen a coup attempt. Where was

00:24:03.620 that? Did you see what? What I saw was a guy in a Viking hat, some guy with some twist ties.

00:24:10.500 They took over an empty room. Because what were they protesting in favor of? The current system

00:24:18.300 being used properly, meaning a transparent election. Was there anybody there who said,

00:24:25.260 we don't care what the elections say. We don't care what the voters want. We want our leader in

00:24:30.800 place no matter what the vote was. There were none of them. All about you, there was not one person who

00:24:37.900 entered the Capitol building who, if you asked them, hey, look, if we could prove to you that

00:24:44.080 Biden got more votes and he got them in the right places, if we could prove it to your satisfaction,

00:24:50.780 would you be okay with him serving as president? I'll bet you 100% of the people who entered the

00:24:56.600 Capitol would have said, oh yeah, because we like, we like the Constitution. That's why we're here.

00:25:03.580 Because we like the Constitution. We're not trying to get rid of it. We're not trying to destroy the

00:25:10.500 country. We're trying to make sure the country is running the way it was designed, which is you know

00:25:16.380 who got the most votes and then that person serves as president. So you had a bunch of people who

00:25:22.100 unambiguously were doing the opposite of a coup. They were trying to stop one.

00:25:27.020 Now the coup that they were trying to stop could have been imaginary. Could have been imaginary.

00:25:34.840 In other words, they imagined that the vote was rigged and that would have been a coup.

00:25:40.320 Would it not? If the vote had been rigged in favor of Biden and there's no court proof of that

00:25:46.680 happening, I have to say that so I don't get banned, there's no court proof of any rigging of the

00:25:51.600 election at a scale big enough to change it. But what if it had? There were a lot of people who

00:25:59.460 believed it and they were trying to make sure that the system had not been corrupted. So a bunch of

00:26:04.880 people tried to make sure that the current system, exactly as it's designed, is working properly,

00:26:11.720 explicitly. That's what they all wanted. They just wanted a little time for an audit,

00:26:15.100 make sure we got the result that we wanted. And that is being reported by the press,

00:26:21.440 and now the Democrats who are doing the impeachment thing, as an insurrection. Nothing like that

00:26:27.400 happened. In your world, there was no insurrection. Not even close. Nothing slightly like one.

00:26:35.340 Somebody says, this is such a disingenuous spin, says Kyle. So Kyle, I'm going to talk about you and

00:26:46.300 people like you next. If you're trying to figure out what is the right take or way to, let's say,

00:26:54.820 communicate about the current impeachment, it should be mocking. Because you should be mocking the

00:27:01.460 people who imagined something that didn't happen. There's a whole impeachment process over a thing

00:27:07.320 that you know didn't happen. You don't even have to wonder. It's all on film. You could interview

00:27:15.260 anybody who went there and ask them the following question. If you knew that the vote had been accurate

00:27:21.600 and Biden got the most votes, would you accept him as your president? I'll bet they'd all say yes.

00:27:29.680 Is that an insurrection? We want the person who got the most votes to be president. Is that an

00:27:37.020 insurrection? No, that's the opposite. It's literally the opposite. And it's obvious. I don't have to spin

00:27:44.040 anything to say it's the opposite of that. It's obvious. Kyle, who thinks I'm being disingenuous with my

00:27:53.620 spin, you have been hypnotized. Now, when I say you've been hypnotized, I mean that literally.

00:27:59.660 Literally. You're actually seeing something that isn't there. You're literally hallucinating. I don't

00:28:06.560 mean in the, I'm not talking in some like artistic way. You're actually having a literal physical

00:28:14.720 mental hallucination. Because you think there was an insurrection, you can't find any of it.

00:28:21.840 It's not on video. There are no people who would say that they were there for that purpose.

00:28:25.880 They did not bring tools that could have done it. They didn't do anything that could have caused

00:28:31.300 a change of government. They controlled a room for an hour. That's it. Now, I've heard people say,

00:28:37.920 but what if they'd gotten all the way to Pence and Pelosi? What if they'd actually, you know,

00:28:43.160 got to them? To which I say, what do you think they would have done? Now, if some bad people were in

00:28:49.980 there, they could have done illegal bad things and nobody wants that. But even if they'd captured

00:28:56.000 Pelosi and Pence, was the rest of the country going to surrender? What would make that a coup?

00:29:03.800 It would make it a crime that should be punishable by the maximum force. But how do you control the

00:29:11.620 whole country by taking one person or two people hostage? That's not a thing. It's not even slightly

00:29:19.400 a thing. And how would you keep them and hold them hostage with your twist ties and your Viking hat?

00:29:26.860 Now, I'm sure some people were armed, but did anybody bring out a gun? Obviously, they didn't intend to

00:29:32.840 use weapons because they had them. They didn't use them. And they had every reason to want to use them if

00:29:39.640 if it had been an insurrection. If it had been an insurrection, they would have used weapons.

00:29:45.820 You mean actual guns, weapons. But they use clubs. You can see a riot getting out of control.

00:29:51.740 And those people need to pay for their crimes. But we should not treat this like it's a serious

00:29:59.360 matter of an insurrection. No insurrection happened. No coup attempt happened. None. We should treat the

00:30:07.740 people who are having this hallucination as people who are having a medical, mental problem. You should

00:30:14.460 laugh at it. You should mock the people who believe that the president should be held accountable

00:30:22.980 for an insurrection. Now, he should be held accountable, he should, for his actions. In other words,

00:30:31.020 the president's lack of action to stop it, I think is fully worthy of criticism. I wouldn't push back at

00:30:39.080 all on that. So we should stop treating this like there's any doubt about whether there was an

00:30:47.800 insurrection. There's no doubt. Nothing like that happened. You can't see it, can't find it, can't taste

00:30:54.800 it, can't smell it, can't find any evidence of it. So the people who believed that, well, we have lots

00:31:03.880 of examples of people on both sides of the political divide, believing things that are just crazy,

00:31:09.600 just absolutely crazy. And we know that people can hallucinate and believe pretty much anything,

00:31:16.140 just anything. People believe that the president of the United States once stood in public and called

00:31:21.760 neo-Nazis fine people. People think that actually happened. It didn't. He said the opposite, if you

00:31:29.340 watch the whole video. So the right play for this is to treat it like the people who are having this

00:31:38.160 are having a bad mental problem, that they're imagining something and they think that the president

00:31:43.400 should be punished for what they're hallucinating to be true. So that was for you, Kyle. You were

00:31:51.500 hallucinating. And if you're wondering, how can you tell if you're hallucinating?

00:31:59.740 One way would be to look for evidence of that thing that you think happened.

00:32:06.000 See if you can find any. You won't. You won't. You won't find anything that looks like an insurrection.

00:32:13.080 Nothing. And you can look as hard as you want. There won't be anything there. There will only be people

00:32:18.160 telling you they see it. If enough people tell you they can see it, it makes you see it. But that's

00:32:25.140 what's happening. It's not there. There's nothing there. Somebody say, the cop's funeral. What about it?

00:32:36.320 Did he just get blocked? No, I didn't block him for that. All right. Then let's talk about

00:32:43.540 Trump's lawyers. So Bruce Castor was the first lawyer. I've never seen lawyers do a worse job. Have

00:32:55.960 you? If you watched Trump's first lawyer, Bruce Castor, that was the worst job I've ever seen of

00:33:03.300 lawyering in my whole life. It's not like I've seen a lot of lawyering, but I've never seen a worse

00:33:09.240 lawyer. The whole time I was watching him, I was imagining what Trump was doing because you know

00:33:19.360 he was watching, right? I was imagining Trump at home watching this on TV. It's like, okay, here he

00:33:25.200 goes. All right. He's wandering a little bit, not getting to the point. All right. He's going to get

00:33:30.780 to the point now. Bring it home. All right. He's telling a personal story. Doesn't seem terribly

00:33:35.920 relevant, but this won't last long. All right. Now get to the point. Defend might. Okay. It seems

00:33:40.540 like he's rambling again, but I know he's not going to keep rambling. Pretty soon he's going to get to

00:33:46.160 the defense. Then, then, okay. He's still rambling. He's still, he's not talking about anything that

00:33:54.760 seems even related to the case. I, I, I'm starting to drift off. Can you imagine how mad Trump was

00:34:05.600 when he watched that? Imagine that your life is on the line. And this, this guy goes all,

00:34:13.340 it was so bad. It was actually just funny. Uh, but I hope, hope it doesn't change things in a bad way

00:34:23.980 for the president. Now his second lawyer, I guess, did a better job, uh, making the constitutional case,

00:34:30.220 but there was no point in even being there really, because it wasn't as if there was anybody who was

00:34:35.520 going to change their mind. I guess one Senator changed size or something, but it wasn't going

00:34:40.400 to matter. It's a political process. So arguing the, the law during a political process, it's just a

00:34:47.540 waste of time. So the Senate decided to vote that they do have jurisdiction.

00:34:51.820 Is that how it works? Can the Senate simply take jurisdiction for something the constitution does

00:35:02.180 not give them jurisdiction over? Can they just vote that they have it? Well, that's what they did.

00:35:07.660 How do you vote yourself jurisdiction? Okay. It seems like jurisdiction has to come from a higher,

00:35:14.020 a higher source, doesn't it? Like, how can you give yourself power? Ah, there's something wrong with

00:35:22.500 that, right? I could see how a higher authority could give you power, but how do you give yourself

00:35:29.520 power and jurisdiction specifically? So that was sketchy, but again, it doesn't matter. You know,

00:35:37.860 I could argue how it's illegal or non-constitutional or anything. None of that matters. Once you say

00:35:43.860 it's a political process, then you don't need to be legal. You don't need to be constitutional.

00:35:50.400 You don't need to make sense. You don't need to use the facts. You don't need to argue with reason.

00:35:55.980 You don't need to do anything. As soon as you agree it's a political process, everything else is

00:36:02.540 bullshit. And yet they have to present it like it's not. It's like, oh, maybe it's sort of like a legal 0.99

00:36:09.780 process. Do you believe it? No. Hey, maybe we'll change people's minds with our clever arguments.

00:36:18.580 No, no, that's not happening. So there's nothing, it's complete theater that has nothing to do with

00:36:25.960 how anybody will vote or what will happen to the country or anything. And they're running this theater

00:36:30.560 instead of doing their work. But yesterday, even Fox News was reporting that work continues on the

00:36:39.740 on the stimulus. Do you think it is? Do you think that that Congress has no impact on their other

00:36:49.320 business to take two weeks out and just work on this? Because if this doesn't affect their other

00:36:57.620 business, then maybe we should cut their pay. Because if they can take two weeks out, and it doesn't 0.83

00:37:03.940 affect anything else they're doing, what the hell else were they doing? Because if I take two weeks out

00:37:09.540 of my job, it's going to make a big difference in my deadlines and the work backing up. If you take two

00:37:15.540 weeks off of your job, and you don't have somebody filling in for you, isn't that a big problem?

00:37:21.660 Don't you have a lot of work backed up when you come back to work? But Congress doesn't have that

00:37:26.380 problem? They can just take two weeks out, and it won't affect the other stuff they're doing? Come

00:37:30.660 on. Come on. They're doing theater instead of their job, right in front of you. And they're not even

00:37:39.120 really pretending that they're not doing that. Any observer can see that it's pure theater.

00:37:45.760 And it's obvious it's affecting their other work. And we're okay with that. We're like,

00:37:49.400 oh, okay. It's entertaining. Oh, let's watch it. I enjoy it, though.

00:38:01.400 Hello? Do you hear the crickets?

00:38:04.960 Have you noticed that your spam phone calls all sound like evening crickets for the first five

00:38:24.960 seconds? You answer the phone and you hear just like silence and crickets? Like actually crickets.

00:38:30.640 Do you wait for the crickets to be done? Because you know it's going to be spam, right? If it's a

00:38:36.260 real person, they say hi right away. So let's see what else we've got going on. Here's the simulation

00:38:48.880 winking at us. The head of the AFL-CIO union, his name is Richard Trumka. T-R-U-M-K-A.

00:39:01.300 Trumka. It sounds like Trump and Ivanka put together. Trumka. Weird coincidence, I guess.

00:39:12.340 And he sided with Biden as Biden was reducing jobs in his union. What? That's right. His job is to

00:39:23.400 make more, you know, the union head's job is to make sure that his union is taken care of,

00:39:28.940 and that, you know, they get jobs and benefits and stuff. And he sided with Biden in reducing the

00:39:35.860 number of jobs in his union. And people have wondered, huh, what does it mean to be the head

00:39:45.060 of a union? If you're not fighting for jobs for the union, but you're fighting for the person who's

00:39:51.860 fighting against that? Now, here was his statement when it was pointed out to him in an interview

00:40:00.560 on Axios, I guess, Axios. Here was the way he presented it. He said, quote, Richard Trumka did,

00:40:10.360 I wish, talking about Biden and his XL pipeline decision to cancel that project. He said,

00:40:19.060 I wish he hadn't done that on the first day, because the laborers' international union is right, 0.50

00:40:23.860 Trumka told Axios. It did and will cost us jobs in the process. Here's the fun part.

00:40:31.580 Watch how he spins this. He goes, I wish he had paired that more carefully with the thing he did

00:40:37.760 second by saying, here's where we're creating jobs. So the head of the AFL-CIO, who knows that he just

00:40:46.100 got stabbed in the back for supporting Biden, and then Biden cuts a bunch of union jobs.

00:40:53.420 He's still defending the guy. And the way he's doing it is saying, gosh, I wish he'd been more

00:40:59.340 careful in pairing these new jobs with the ones that are being lost, you know, because if he'd paired

00:41:05.900 them better, we'd be fine. It doesn't really work that way, does it? It's not like those same jobs,

00:41:14.200 you could just take these steel workers or pipe fitters or whatever the hell they are and just

00:41:19.000 put them in there. It's like, ah, you're fine now. You might have to relocate. That's kind of a big

00:41:25.240 deal. Well, you're going to have to move away from your whole family if you want a new job. 0.64

00:41:31.920 So watching him do that was funny. But why is it that Biden can bitch slap the AFL-CIO and make

00:41:40.420 them thank him for it? Not only does he abuse them, but he makes them be nice to him anyway. 0.96

00:41:46.840 Why can't he do that to the teachers' unions who are preventing kids from going back to school?

00:41:52.600 So he can throw this union under the bus, but he can't throw the teachers' unions under the bus.

00:41:57.840 Now, part of the problem is that there are more of them. You know, the teachers' unions are local,

00:42:02.540 so there may be just too many of them to find anybody to bribe. Now, I'm not going to suggest

00:42:08.460 that I do not suggest that the head of the AFL-CIO has been bribed in some way, but others are.

00:42:17.000 Others are alleging that he must have been paid off or he has some benefit there because they don't

00:42:22.840 quite understand why he's doing the opposite of his job, which is to protect jobs in the union.

00:42:29.060 So I have no reason to believe that he was paid off, but I do ask this question. Would that work?

00:42:36.260 Would that work? Because if it works to bribe union leaders, why aren't we doing that?

00:42:45.320 Can't we just bribe the teachers' unions? Are there too many of them? Maybe if you get the big ones. 0.68

00:42:50.520 Now, I know it's probably, or is it? Is it illegal? Would that even be illegal? Can you bribe a teachers' union?

00:42:59.060 You can't bribe an elected politician, and it would be illegal to bribe a foreign company, right?

00:43:11.040 So you can't pay bribes overseas. That would be illegal in the United States to pay a bribe overseas.

00:43:17.800 But could you bribe a teachers' union representative? Could you do that?

00:43:23.380 I mean, could you legally just say, look, you're ruining the whole country. I'll tell you what.

00:43:30.460 We'll throw a couple of Bitcoin your way. One Bitcoin for your vote. That's it.

00:43:36.220 We've got some billionaires. They want the schools open. The billionaires will pay it.

00:43:40.440 So we'll just pay you to change your mind. Would that be illegal?

00:43:44.940 Well, suppose you did it overtly. Could you do it publicly and say, look, all you teachers' unions, we will give you directly some money.

00:43:57.960 You just vote our way.

00:44:02.840 Somebody says, you're not very good at hypnosis, dude.

00:44:06.420 Well, Ronald, did you think I was hypnotizing you right now?

00:44:10.140 Is that why you were hallucinating? Was I hypnotizing you and it wasn't working?

00:44:16.160 Let me tell you something about hypnosis, Ronald.

00:44:21.240 If I were hypnotizing you, you wouldn't know it.

00:44:27.900 I'll just leave you with that.

00:44:33.220 Here's another issue. Apparently the stimulus package is going to wrap into it also.

00:44:38.200 A $15 an hour minimum wage, which on Fox News, the headline says, it will cost 1.4 million jobs.

00:44:47.200 So if you're reading Fox News and you read the headlines, you'd say, well, that's pretty bad.

00:44:52.900 The minimum wage will go up.

00:44:54.900 Well, I suppose that's good for the people who get the wage, but it's going to cost 1.4 million jobs.

00:45:00.200 So it's a bad idea, right?

00:45:03.120 That's what the headline says.

00:45:04.360 But then you read the story.

00:45:07.380 It was the CBO who said it would cost those jobs.

00:45:10.480 And the CBO also says it would lift roughly 900,000 Americans out of poverty.

00:45:16.080 If that's not in the headline, you are being fed propaganda.

00:45:21.820 So Fox News is giving you propaganda that $15 an hour minimum wage will cut 1.4 million jobs.

00:45:28.720 It's completely true, true that it was estimated, not true that it will happen, but true that it was estimated by the CBO.

00:45:35.300 But you've got to kind of put in that, the benefit, right?

00:45:39.360 If you show the cost and then you put the benefit like way down in the story, that's propaganda.

00:45:47.100 That is not the news.

00:45:48.440 So if you think that CNN is giving you the propaganda and Fox News is giving it to you straight, that's not happening.

00:45:55.940 Here's a good example.

00:45:57.240 If they were giving it to you straight, they would have told you both things at the same time.

00:46:01.260 Reduces 1.4 million jobs, lifts nearly a million people out of poverty.

00:46:06.820 That would be the cost and the benefits.

00:46:09.040 So do you believe the CBO, that it will cost 1.4 million jobs, 1.4 million?

00:46:18.740 Do you believe it?

00:46:20.900 You shouldn't.

00:46:22.580 Do you think that they can actually estimate that?

00:46:25.820 They can't.

00:46:27.340 That's not really something that you can estimate, you know, down to some kind of precision.

00:46:32.560 So if you have nearly a million people who will be lifted out of poverty, and you have maybe, and it's a big maybe, another 1.4 million who might lose their job, what would happen to the 1.4 million who lose their job?

00:46:48.900 Would they never get another job?

00:46:51.280 Well, if the economy is growing, I would expect all of those people to get better jobs, just different jobs.

00:46:57.840 And those different jobs would pay them $15 an hour. 0.93

00:47:00.780 So when you see that it would cost 1.4 million jobs, do you think that's forever?

00:47:07.620 Is it forever?

00:47:09.140 And if it's not forever, shouldn't that be in the story?

00:47:13.400 Because if it costs you 1.4 million jobs for only one month, and then those people go get different jobs at higher minimum wage, is that really so bad?

00:47:26.440 Here's my bottom line.

00:47:28.400 If you believe that economists can model this accurately enough to know which of these two things is better, the people lifted out of poverty versus the loss of jobs and some of those companies probably closing, which is the better thing?

00:47:46.600 Okay. You don't know.

00:47:49.240 Do you think economists can actually model that?

00:47:52.020 No. No, they can't.

00:47:53.920 It's their job to do it, so they'll produce a report because it's their job.

00:47:58.280 They've been asked to make an estimate.

00:48:00.640 I did economic estimates for a living.

00:48:03.320 You can't estimate this.

00:48:05.380 Nobody can.

00:48:05.920 It doesn't matter how good you are.

00:48:08.180 It doesn't matter how smart you are.

00:48:09.820 It doesn't matter how good your models are.

00:48:11.580 It can't be done.

00:48:13.240 But these estimates are useful for giving you sort of an idea of what the range of possibilities is.

00:48:21.620 And what they've told us is that the range of possibilities is in this million-people-affected kind of level, and of 370 million people in the country.

00:48:31.240 If I put it to you in that context, and I said $15 minimum wage, something like a million out of 370 million will be affected, but only temporarily, and then later they'll just get higher pay because they'll eventually get a job.

00:48:50.740 Now, of course, how this works depends entirely on the employment situation.

00:48:58.420 So as long as it's still easy enough to get a job, everything's fine.

00:49:04.780 If it's hard to get a job and you lose your job that was less than $15 an hour, well, you're in big trouble because you can't get another job.

00:49:14.160 But if there are plenty of other jobs and you lose your job that's less than minimum wage, you came out ahead because you lost your $10 an hour job,

00:49:24.340 and a month later you got a $50 an hour an hour job, you came out ahead.

00:49:31.000 The company didn't, you know, whoever was paying you was making less money.

00:49:35.760 But the point is, all of the ins and outs of this, and then you have to factor in the people who have more money, are spending more,

00:49:42.140 that stimulates the economy in ways that we just can't model.

00:49:45.500 So it's way too complicated because of the iterative nature of what happens with these people who get the higher wage,

00:49:52.680 then they buy some stuff, and then those people buy some stuff.

00:49:55.600 And it's like this whole iterative thing that you can't possibly model.

00:50:00.240 It is not modelable.

00:50:02.440 But I would agree that the total damage is probably in the million people-ish size.

00:50:09.980 That's the only thing you can take out of this.

00:50:11.700 So somebody says, why not $60 an hour? 1.00

00:50:15.980 Because that would be fucking stupid. 0.99

00:50:18.660 There are some things that don't really require an answer. 1.00

00:50:23.080 Somebody says, it's a bad idea, let the market determine the wage.

00:50:26.240 But the market doesn't.

00:50:28.120 If the market could determine the wage, that would be great.

00:50:32.200 But we do know that the market is not a perfect market.

00:50:36.480 In other words, there are lots of people.

00:50:39.420 Let me say something that will probably get me in trouble.

00:50:46.200 But if I say it right, maybe not.

00:50:48.580 The people who are working for minimum wage are some combination of young people who will someday make more.

00:50:56.160 And older people who maybe don't have the skills that they could ever make more than that. 0.98

00:51:00.660 If you don't have the skills to make more than minimum wage, are you really mobile?

00:51:07.540 Can you just leave your job and go to another one?

00:51:10.240 Well, legally you can.

00:51:11.420 There's nothing stopping you legally from quitting your job and going to a new one.

00:51:15.340 But I would argue that the adults who are kind of stuck in that minimum wage world, I don't know that they're so mobile.

00:51:24.840 I don't know that they really have that choice.

00:51:27.440 Because it might mean missing a paycheck and not eating this week or something.

00:51:32.600 So I don't know that they have the wherewithal, the ability to change jobs as easily as you would like.

00:51:39.440 So I'm questioning whether the free market is free in this case.

00:51:47.160 Now remember, the free market's a great idea until you get some problems such as a monopoly.

00:51:54.480 Would you agree that monopolies need to be dealt with?

00:51:58.080 Or would you say, well, it's a free market.

00:52:00.140 If the free market created a monopoly, then the monopoly's fine.

00:52:03.700 Just the way it is.

00:52:05.520 Because you would have to have both views, I think.

00:52:07.600 If you believe that the free market will adjust to minimum wage,

00:52:14.340 if you believe that the free market will give you the right wage level,

00:52:19.400 then you probably also should believe that monopolies are fine.

00:52:23.300 Because I don't think you can take a view that sometimes you can tinker with the free market and sometimes not.

00:52:31.020 You either have to say, we're going to tinker with it or we're not.

00:52:35.280 And if you're not, you've got to let everything in.

00:52:38.720 And if you are, this is probably worthy of tinkering.

00:52:42.600 Probably worthy.

00:52:45.640 It is one of the reasons that I got out of the restaurant business, by the way.

00:52:49.840 Although restaurants will probably have a different minimum wage.

00:52:52.360 They usually do.

00:52:52.920 Let's see.

00:52:56.300 I saw a fake news story.

00:52:58.520 Somebody asked me what I thought of it.

00:53:00.760 And it looks obvious, fake news, but I'll tell you what it is.

00:53:04.620 That Dr. Fauci was allegedly, and I think this is not even slightly true,

00:53:10.340 was saying that hydroxychloroquine was like a cure for SARS-CoV-2 back in 2005.

00:53:15.400 Now, why do I say that this is fake news?

00:53:19.260 Number one, if it were true, it would be headline news, at least on Fox News.

00:53:26.420 It would be headline news somewhere in a big news organization, but it isn't.

00:53:30.860 Number two, it comes from an unknown source.

00:53:34.920 So that's sketchy.

00:53:36.520 And number three, it is too on the nose.

00:53:40.700 Right?

00:53:40.860 It's a little too exactly like a conspiracy theory that Fauci would have publicly said

00:53:49.220 the hydroxychloroquine is a cure back in 2005.

00:53:53.300 So if you put those three things together, I would say there's really no chance that this is real.

00:53:59.100 I think it's just, it's pure fake news.

00:54:02.040 Like, pure fake news, not even based on anything that ever happened.

00:54:06.360 So I think you should treat that as pure fake news.

00:54:10.860 But the World Health Organization got a scientist to look into whether the Wuhan lab was the source

00:54:17.680 or what was the source of the coronavirus.

00:54:20.040 And this is a big surprise.

00:54:21.960 A guy who had close connections to the Wuhan lab

00:54:26.400 and also had been helping fund them for years, you know, getting them funding,

00:54:31.280 he says that there's no evidence that the lab was to blame.

00:54:35.780 Maybe it came from packaged meat that was shipped into the country.

00:54:38.980 Now, one of the things that this World Health Organization guy did,

00:54:45.080 and I know what you're thinking, China influences them,

00:54:47.780 so you can't trust the World Health Organization.

00:54:49.960 And I agree.

00:54:52.140 But he attacked the U.S. intelligence agencies

00:54:57.100 saying that they were wrong on many aspects about COVID.

00:55:01.020 And then a lot of Americans said, what?

00:55:04.740 What? 0.99

00:55:05.460 How can you, you Chinese puppet, 1.00

00:55:09.160 how can you say that the U.S. intelligence agencies are not dependable? 0.87

00:55:14.480 Well, do you trust the U.S. intelligence agencies?

00:55:19.620 Because you shouldn't.

00:55:20.980 They got wrong on the weapons of mass destruction.

00:55:26.080 They've been wrong on everything North Korea.

00:55:28.660 They were wrong on Russia collusion.

00:55:32.700 Have they been right about anything?

00:55:35.300 I don't know.

00:55:36.080 Are they ever right?

00:55:37.540 So when I hear this guy, you know,

00:55:40.200 Chinese puppet allegedly,

00:55:42.640 criticizing U.S. intelligence,

00:55:44.440 I say, well, you got that one thing right.

00:55:46.360 I mean, if you believe our own intelligence services, 1.00

00:55:50.500 you're just a sucker. 0.99

00:55:52.000 Because they are not meant to be believed. 1.00

00:55:55.340 They are professional liars. 0.99

00:55:57.680 It's what they do. 0.99

00:55:59.520 So if you believe them,

00:56:01.560 why would you believe a professional liar?

00:56:05.240 Why?

00:56:06.180 It would be like taking Trump at face value

00:56:09.460 for what he said his crowd size was.

00:56:11.920 Why would you ever do that?

00:56:13.940 It wouldn't make any sense.

00:56:17.360 So, my bottom line is,

00:56:19.580 I do not believe it is certain

00:56:21.860 that the Wuhan lab was involved

00:56:24.080 in creating some kind of a leak.

00:56:27.900 I would agree with the World Health Organization

00:56:30.480 that if the only source we have

00:56:32.740 that says it did come from the Wuhan lab

00:56:34.860 is U.S. intelligence agencies,

00:56:37.500 you don't have anything.

00:56:39.160 There is no credibility whatsoever

00:56:41.860 to U.S. intelligence agencies

00:56:44.620 on a question like this.

00:56:47.420 Now, there may be places

00:56:49.060 where they would be credible,

00:56:50.380 but certainly not on this.

00:56:52.160 So, you should not believe necessarily

00:56:55.300 that it came from the Wuhan lab.

00:56:57.520 I do think that point is well made.

00:57:00.340 That we don't know where it came from,

00:57:02.840 but that's just the end of the story.

00:57:05.720 We just don't know where it came from.

00:57:07.500 That's it.

00:57:08.100 That might be the end of the story.

00:57:09.260 So, here's the weirdest thing.

00:57:15.840 Well, you be the judge.

00:57:17.640 Have you seen the pictures

00:57:19.160 of Tom Brady shirtless

00:57:20.940 after his Super Bowl win?

00:57:23.800 I guess he was frolicking recently

00:57:25.620 in some beach.

00:57:27.380 And there are pictures of him shirtless.

00:57:29.640 Now, one of the things that people say is,

00:57:31.180 my God, he looks the same as when he was 20.

00:57:33.720 I mean, it looks like he hasn't aged.

00:57:35.140 But, I've never seen anybody

00:57:38.240 who looked less like an athlete

00:57:40.080 with their shirt off.

00:57:42.220 To the point where,

00:57:44.180 if you couldn't tell, you know,

00:57:45.620 that he's taller than I am,

00:57:47.400 if you saw me with my shirt off,

00:57:49.960 and let's say just a torso shot,

00:57:52.320 and then you saw just a torso shot

00:57:54.280 of Tom Brady,

00:57:56.480 I'm 20 years older than he is.

00:57:59.480 And I would look a lot more like an athlete

00:58:01.660 with my shirt off.

00:58:03.000 Like, not even close.

00:58:03.940 He doesn't look like he's ever exercised.

00:58:08.020 He doesn't look like he's ever exercised.

00:58:10.500 It's the weirdest thing.

00:58:12.260 And I wonder if that's part of his secret.

00:58:14.580 Because, if you've ever watched tennis,

00:58:17.480 you know Roger Federer

00:58:18.600 is somewhat famous for being

00:58:21.060 not really trained in the usual way.

00:58:25.460 He doesn't have much muscle definition

00:58:27.180 except his one tennis arm.

00:58:30.160 So, it's weird when you see people

00:58:32.280 who don't have obvious muscle structure

00:58:35.100 who can do things

00:58:36.700 that are very muscular.

00:58:39.340 So, he says,

00:58:40.300 show us evidence.

00:58:41.780 Well, I mean,

00:58:43.340 can Tom Brady do that?

00:58:46.540 I don't know.

00:58:47.480 Can he?

00:58:49.360 It didn't look like he could.

00:58:50.720 It looked like his arm was a little noodle.

00:58:54.280 And I'm not saying that I'm,

00:58:55.760 I'm not Arnold Schwarzenegger.

00:58:57.400 I'm just saying

00:58:58.180 that legitimately,

00:58:59.540 if you could only see my torso,

00:59:01.820 you would think I was the athlete

00:59:03.080 and you would think he wasn't.

00:59:04.720 And I don't know,

00:59:05.880 I don't know,

00:59:07.380 like how he can do the things he does

00:59:10.160 with his spindly little body,

00:59:12.920 but he makes it work.

00:59:15.580 I'm a fan, by the way,

00:59:16.740 so I'm not,

00:59:17.260 I'm not trying to criticize Tom Brady.

00:59:20.360 I think,

00:59:20.720 you know,

00:59:21.360 I'm a big fan of everything he's done.

00:59:24.340 So that,

00:59:25.760 can I throw a football?

00:59:27.080 No.

00:59:27.840 No.

00:59:28.660 I can throw a football,

00:59:30.220 you know,

00:59:31.180 the length of my living room,

00:59:32.460 probably.

00:59:34.940 Pete Vagan will do that to you.

00:59:36.580 Maybe that's it.

00:59:37.420 Maybe he's not getting enough protein.

00:59:38.680 You want a Scott Callender?

00:59:48.060 Yeah,

00:59:48.280 he is six foot four,

00:59:49.320 so he's got that going for him.

00:59:51.840 Yeah,

00:59:52.220 if you saw standing,

00:59:53.260 if you saw me standing next to him,

00:59:55.300 like full body,

00:59:56.540 you wouldn't have any doubt

00:59:57.620 who the athlete was.

00:59:58.960 I'm just saying it's weird

01:00:00.020 that he doesn't have muscle definition.

01:00:02.400 All right,

01:00:02.720 that's all for now,

01:00:03.440 and I will talk to you later.

01:00:08.140 All right,

01:00:09.260 Periscope is gone.

01:00:10.540 YouTube,

01:00:11.100 you're still here.

01:00:15.620 You are kind to cats.

01:00:17.080 I am kind to cats.

01:00:18.100 I don't know why you said that,

01:00:19.160 but I am kind to cats.

01:00:24.120 Hello,

01:00:24.660 realtor.

01:00:31.480 All right.

01:00:33.180 I'm just looking at your comments,

01:00:34.540 but they seem to be kind of random.

01:00:36.920 How's Snickers?

01:00:37.500 She's doing great.

01:00:38.680 All right.

01:00:44.440 Your comments are funny,

01:00:45.500 but I'm going to go do something else,

01:00:47.240 and I will talk to you tomorrow.

01:00:48.520 All right.

01:00:48.660 All right.

01:00:48.700 All right.

01:00:49.020 All right.

01:00:49.260 All right.

01:00:50.160 All right.

01:00:50.220 All right.

01:00:50.660 All right.

01:00:51.260 All right.
