00:00:00.000 I wasn't going to be here.
00:00:02.220 Come on, all you YouTubers.
00:00:05.300 You know I wouldn't miss it.
00:00:07.760 One minute delay.
00:00:09.160 A little technical problem.
00:00:11.080 Practically nothing.
00:00:13.180 And by now, you're starting to realize
00:00:17.000 that something special has happened, right?
00:00:20.520 Somehow you made it to the best place in the world.
00:00:24.880 Seven plus billion people wandering around lost
00:00:29.060 by you, my friends, made it to exactly the right place
00:00:32.840 and even before the time to start.
00:00:36.540 Very good, very good.
00:00:37.940 If you'd like to take it to another level,
00:00:39.900 all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass of tanker gel,
00:00:41.780 a canteen jug or a flask of a vessel of any kind.
00:00:44.760 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:45.700 I like coffee.
00:00:47.460 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure,
00:00:50.980 the dopamine here of the day,
00:00:52.840 the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:57.240 Except my throat.
00:00:59.060 It's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now.
00:01:01.560 Go.
00:01:07.720 Antibodies.
00:01:09.260 Yep.
00:01:10.520 Those antibodies are surging.
00:01:13.840 Now, some of you,
00:01:15.840 and I'm sorry, YouTube people,
00:01:19.540 I hate to tell you, but you missed this.
00:01:21.680 Last night was the prototype first episode
00:01:26.500 of After Dark with Scott Adams.
00:01:30.100 Yes, not the simultaneous sip,
00:01:32.600 but the simultaneous talk.
00:01:36.080 And only the people on the local subscription service
00:01:40.180 got to see that.
00:01:41.920 Yes, we hung out in my man cave.
00:01:44.160 A good time was had by all.
00:01:45.820 Might do more of that in the future.
00:01:47.060 Well, how about the good news?
00:01:50.400 Shall we start with that?
00:01:52.040 Shall we start with the good news?
00:01:55.240 Here's the coolest news
00:01:56.660 and the one I've been waiting for.
00:01:59.220 There's a company called Joby Aviation.
00:02:03.160 CNN is reporting this.
00:02:04.520 They have a,
00:02:06.000 they've developed at least a prototype
00:02:07.420 of a six-rotor helicopter slash airplane.
00:02:13.140 Now, it's a slash airplane
00:02:14.820 because it can lift off with its six rotors
00:02:18.020 like a helicopter.
00:02:20.080 So suddenly you don't need an airport.
00:02:23.180 It can fly 200 miles an hour.
00:02:26.160 Do you know how fast a Cessna flies?
00:02:29.660 Not that fast.
00:02:32.460 So it's faster than a small airplane.
00:02:35.240 It's actually faster than a PITS,
00:02:38.840 which is an aerobatic plane.
00:02:40.640 Oh yeah, I know all about planes
00:02:42.240 because I listen.
00:02:47.120 Somebody says 250.
00:02:48.760 I think it depends on the Cessna,
00:02:50.480 but your typical Cessna,
00:02:51.960 you could be, you know,
00:02:52.920 if you're getting 160, 180,
00:02:55.600 wouldn't that be on the high end?
00:02:56.880 145 for a typical Cessna,
00:03:00.340 somebody's saying.
00:03:01.480 Anyway, it's quite, it's electric.
00:03:05.060 Did I mention that?
00:03:05.900 It's electric.
00:03:07.940 And it's safer than a helicopter
00:03:09.920 because it has six rotors.
00:03:11.420 I assume six engines,
00:03:13.460 probably some redundancy.
00:03:15.040 I'm guessing that if you lose one of the rotors,
00:03:17.440 you're probably in pretty good shape
00:03:18.740 to finish your flight.
00:03:20.320 Guessing.
00:03:23.400 And it'll go 150 miles on a charge
00:03:26.080 at 200 miles an hour.
00:03:27.920 It'll seat four passengers and one pilot.
00:03:32.480 I think they solved everything.
00:03:35.220 Didn't they?
00:03:35.820 It feels like they solved every problem
00:03:38.560 with flight.
00:03:40.720 Think about every problem you have with flight.
00:03:44.560 Doesn't this kind of solve most of them?
00:03:47.320 Not the long hauls,
00:03:48.640 but certainly the shorter flights.
00:03:51.540 All right.
00:03:52.460 So that's pretty cool.
00:03:54.560 Looking forward to that.
00:03:56.080 Dr. Anarchy on Twitter,
00:04:01.120 who's a real doctor,
00:04:03.640 suggests that maybe when I was talking about
00:04:06.020 the Havana syndrome being a mass hysteria,
00:04:09.920 which I wouldn't say is confirmed yet,
00:04:11.860 but at this point,
00:04:13.620 the smart money is on mass hysteria
00:04:15.680 for the Havana syndrome secret sonic weapon.
00:04:18.440 And Dr. Anarchy points out,
00:04:21.260 you know,
00:04:21.820 it might be a mass hysteria
00:04:23.400 with this long COVID stuff.
00:04:26.420 To which I say,
00:04:28.220 hmm,
00:04:29.380 could be.
00:04:31.680 Because it does have the right characteristics,
00:04:34.420 which is the news is talking about it,
00:04:36.420 people are suggestible,
00:04:37.940 and there's a whole bunch of gray area stuff
00:04:40.080 like brain fog,
00:04:41.160 headaches,
00:04:41.480 some loss of appetite
00:04:43.020 that people get anyway.
00:04:45.500 So it's pretty,
00:04:47.200 pretty easy to imagine
00:04:48.880 that people would be,
00:04:50.160 you know,
00:04:51.160 imagining they're having more problems
00:04:52.760 than they have.
00:04:53.260 Now,
00:04:53.580 let me be,
00:04:54.200 let me be really specific here.
00:04:56.240 I'm not suggesting
00:04:57.920 that long COVID isn't real.
00:05:00.400 I'm not suggesting it isn't real.
00:05:03.140 I'm saying that whether it's real or not,
00:05:05.900 almost certainly there are lots of fake,
00:05:10.400 or let's say misdiagnosed symptoms
00:05:12.720 that are just accidental and coincidental.
00:05:16.100 So we don't know how big that effect is,
00:05:18.620 but if you think that you know
00:05:20.560 that long COVID is real
00:05:24.260 and that it's,
00:05:25.560 you know,
00:05:26.260 25% of the people who get it
00:05:28.120 or whatever the statistic is
00:05:29.920 from some study,
00:05:31.160 I don't think we know that.
00:05:33.120 I don't think we know that.
00:05:34.940 I think all we know
00:05:36.420 is that it's reported.
00:05:37.340 And so we have this bizarre situation,
00:05:42.480 the most bizarre situation ever.
00:05:46.500 What are all of us trying to do?
00:05:48.580 Make decisions based on data, right?
00:05:51.540 So 100% of us
00:05:52.940 are making decisions based on data.
00:05:56.040 Now, of course,
00:05:57.280 it's how much you trust the data as well.
00:05:59.380 But we've come down to the point,
00:06:00.760 we've actually evolved to the point
00:06:02.260 where our decision
00:06:04.360 on getting vaccinated or not,
00:06:06.160 at least the individual's decision,
00:06:08.340 is based on comparing
00:06:09.820 two mass hysterias.
00:06:15.460 Two mass hysterias.
00:06:17.640 Maybe.
00:06:19.440 Or at the very least,
00:06:20.560 we don't know what the data is.
00:06:22.540 So if you're making your decision
00:06:24.140 on vaccination,
00:06:24.860 you're probably saying,
00:06:26.060 all right,
00:06:26.280 what is the risk
00:06:27.000 of getting vaccinated
00:06:28.160 and being damaged
00:06:29.880 by the vaccination?
00:06:31.540 Do you know
00:06:31.880 what the answer to that is?
00:06:34.160 You don't know.
00:06:36.060 You don't know the risk.
00:06:37.660 It can't be known.
00:06:39.200 You can know
00:06:40.020 what they've found so far
00:06:41.380 and reported,
00:06:42.720 but that's not the same
00:06:44.200 as what the risk is.
00:06:45.080 Now what about
00:06:46.520 all the anecdotal reports
00:06:48.800 of people having problems
00:06:49.900 after the vaccination?
00:06:51.920 Well, there's enough noise
00:06:53.340 on that
00:06:53.840 to say
00:06:55.700 it could be real,
00:06:58.140 but it also could be
00:07:00.720 mass hysteria.
00:07:02.360 How would it look different
00:07:03.860 if the reports
00:07:05.500 of vaccination damage
00:07:08.380 and side effects,
00:07:09.300 how would it look different
00:07:10.440 if it were mass hysteria
00:07:12.020 or completely real
00:07:14.200 as many of you believe?
00:07:16.420 How would it look different?
00:07:19.100 The answer is it wouldn't.
00:07:21.320 It would look exactly the same
00:07:22.700 if it were a mass hysteria
00:07:24.000 as if the vaccination
00:07:26.260 actually has lots of side effects.
00:07:28.240 It would look
00:07:29.240 exactly the same.
00:07:32.140 So you don't know what it is
00:07:33.400 because it would look
00:07:34.060 exactly the same,
00:07:34.840 but which one's more likely?
00:07:37.520 I don't know.
00:07:39.400 You know,
00:07:39.900 there's some cases
00:07:40.760 where mass hysteria
00:07:41.800 is easy to spot.
00:07:43.380 Let me give you some examples.
00:07:45.440 Mass hysteria
00:07:46.280 that the devil
00:07:47.160 has occupied
00:07:49.080 a bunch of people.
00:07:52.240 Easy.
00:07:53.160 Because the devil
00:07:53.880 claim would be
00:07:55.020 so unlikely.
00:07:57.160 Just on the face of it,
00:07:58.280 you can say,
00:07:58.560 that's a mass hysteria.
00:08:00.480 The Meg Martin school
00:08:01.660 kids case
00:08:02.700 was an obvious
00:08:03.560 mass hysteria.
00:08:04.840 A bunch of people
00:08:05.460 believed in
00:08:06.120 satanic worshipping
00:08:07.640 happening at a school.
00:08:09.320 That's crazy.
00:08:09.960 And it turned out
00:08:11.380 it wasn't true.
00:08:13.240 Mass hysteria
00:08:14.120 about witches.
00:08:16.380 Believing that witches
00:08:17.440 are all around
00:08:18.560 in Salem,
00:08:19.420 for example.
00:08:20.180 That one's easy.
00:08:21.520 Because witches
00:08:22.320 are real.
00:08:23.860 So you say,
00:08:24.380 wait a minute,
00:08:25.200 you're believing
00:08:25.800 in something
00:08:26.280 that's almost
00:08:27.360 certainly not real.
00:08:28.440 A witch.
00:08:29.280 Probably a mass hysteria.
00:08:31.180 Look at the Havana
00:08:32.420 syndrome.
00:08:34.500 Easy to spot
00:08:35.660 as a mass hysteria.
00:08:37.020 Because really?
00:08:39.220 A secret sonic weapon
00:08:40.440 that's just being
00:08:42.380 used on Americans?
00:08:44.080 I don't know.
00:08:45.540 Right?
00:08:45.940 So there's just
00:08:46.540 an obvious thing
00:08:47.480 on the face of it
00:08:48.420 that's probably
00:08:50.380 not true.
00:08:51.360 Like a ghost
00:08:52.340 or a devil
00:08:52.900 or a secret sonic weapon.
00:08:55.580 But what happens
00:08:56.440 if you have
00:08:56.860 a normal situation?
00:08:58.780 A normal situation
00:08:59.760 is that
00:09:00.500 medicine
00:09:02.820 and vaccinations
00:09:04.320 can have side effects
00:09:05.480 for some people.
00:09:07.080 So you can't really
00:09:08.340 spot a mass hysteria
00:09:09.520 in this case.
00:09:10.840 Because there's nothing
00:09:11.620 on the face of it
00:09:12.900 that's ridiculous.
00:09:15.000 If you tell me,
00:09:15.880 but Scott,
00:09:16.300 it is ridiculous
00:09:17.100 that all these smart people
00:09:18.920 would approve a drug
00:09:19.980 that has all these
00:09:20.680 side effects.
00:09:22.500 No,
00:09:23.100 that's not ridiculous.
00:09:25.440 That's something
00:09:26.640 you hope didn't happen.
00:09:27.600 I don't have a spoon.
00:09:34.760 If I had a spoon,
00:09:35.800 I would clank it
00:09:36.480 in my coffee
00:09:37.100 for a sticks and hammer.
00:09:39.460 If I had one.
00:09:41.880 So,
00:09:43.240 yeah,
00:09:44.840 there is no spoon.
00:09:46.800 I don't have a spoon.
00:09:48.340 Sorry.
00:09:49.100 If I had one,
00:09:49.780 I would be happy
00:09:50.440 to comply.
00:09:50.960 do you feel
00:09:57.800 that you're making
00:09:58.420 your vaccination decision
00:09:59.860 based on data
00:10:01.020 or lack of trust
00:10:04.620 for the source?
00:10:06.760 Which one
00:10:07.180 do you think it is?
00:10:09.380 Because
00:10:09.980 the two datas
00:10:11.720 that you're comparing
00:10:12.560 could be both
00:10:13.480 mass hysterias.
00:10:14.840 We might have
00:10:15.540 a mass hysteria
00:10:16.360 about vaccination
00:10:17.200 side effects.
00:10:18.420 At the same time,
00:10:19.500 we have a mass hysteria
00:10:21.260 about COVID
00:10:21.840 long haul.
00:10:23.400 Or
00:10:23.840 one of them
00:10:25.200 could be real
00:10:25.820 and the other one not.
00:10:27.860 Or
00:10:28.300 both of them
00:10:29.640 could be totally real.
00:10:31.780 You don't know.
00:10:33.300 How could you tell?
00:10:35.140 How could you tell?
00:10:38.940 So,
00:10:39.460 if somebody says
00:10:40.040 that they're basing
00:10:40.780 their decision
00:10:41.340 more on lack of trust
00:10:42.680 based on the source,
00:10:47.040 I would
00:10:48.080 suggest to you
00:10:49.460 that no matter
00:10:51.180 which way you go,
00:10:52.580 it's because of
00:10:53.440 lack of trust.
00:10:55.660 Lack of trust
00:10:56.560 should be universal
00:10:57.480 on both sides
00:10:58.300 of the question.
00:10:59.560 You shouldn't trust
00:11:00.140 anybody at this point.
00:11:01.780 Really.
00:11:02.420 You shouldn't trust
00:11:03.020 anybody.
00:11:04.400 So,
00:11:04.940 if the only people
00:11:05.920 you're not trusting
00:11:07.220 are the government,
00:11:08.900 you need to ramp up
00:11:10.480 your skepticism
00:11:11.320 at least double.
00:11:13.580 Because the government
00:11:14.540 is not the only
00:11:15.940 source of bad information.
00:11:18.280 It's one of them.
00:11:20.460 It's not the only one.
00:11:22.220 So,
00:11:22.540 you would be comparing
00:11:23.300 your lack of trust
00:11:25.180 in the government
00:11:25.960 to your more
00:11:27.880 trusting belief
00:11:29.380 that shit you see
00:11:30.680 on the internet
00:11:31.200 is pretty good.
00:11:33.860 So,
00:11:34.720 we don't have data.
00:11:36.960 And if you're using
00:11:37.680 some kind of,
00:11:38.840 you know,
00:11:39.060 in other words,
00:11:39.460 you can't use the data
00:11:40.260 to make a decision
00:11:41.080 because we don't have
00:11:42.060 good enough data.
00:11:43.480 But,
00:11:44.040 if you're trying
00:11:45.520 to game the system
00:11:46.900 with a rule of thumb,
00:11:48.040 like,
00:11:48.320 oh,
00:11:48.480 these people
00:11:48.960 are always lying,
00:11:49.980 or this group,
00:11:51.320 let's say the government,
00:11:52.580 is always trying
00:11:53.440 to put one over us,
00:11:54.580 or the big pharma
00:11:56.260 is lying about
00:11:57.340 its statistics,
00:11:58.840 maybe all of that's true.
00:12:01.860 But you know
00:12:02.560 what else you can't trust?
00:12:04.940 Everything on the other
00:12:05.920 side of the argument.
00:12:06.620 If you think
00:12:08.500 one side of the argument
00:12:09.520 is credible
00:12:10.380 and the other isn't,
00:12:13.580 where have you been lately?
00:12:16.700 Because I'll tell you
00:12:17.640 what's not happening
00:12:18.540 is you're not getting
00:12:20.120 any credible information.
00:12:22.680 Credible doesn't mean
00:12:23.640 incorrect.
00:12:24.640 It just means that
00:12:25.400 you shouldn't believe it
00:12:26.720 on the surface
00:12:27.420 because you can't tell.
00:12:29.420 All you know
00:12:29.860 is it came from some source
00:12:31.060 and it's a source
00:12:32.220 that's been wrong
00:12:32.840 a lot before.
00:12:34.280 Either people
00:12:35.540 on the internet
00:12:36.180 been wrong a lot
00:12:37.380 or the government
00:12:39.140 been wrong a lot.
00:12:41.880 So how in the world
00:12:42.660 are you convincing yourself
00:12:44.060 you're making
00:12:44.480 a data-driven decision?
00:12:46.460 You know you're not, right?
00:12:49.020 Don't you know that?
00:12:50.820 And if you try to
00:12:52.120 game the system,
00:12:53.920 like I said,
00:12:54.580 with,
00:12:55.080 oh, well,
00:12:55.540 I don't need the data
00:12:56.580 because I can just look
00:12:58.240 at the situation
00:12:59.040 and the players
00:13:00.000 and I can figure out
00:13:01.560 which are the credible players
00:13:02.840 and which are not
00:13:03.720 and sort of that's
00:13:04.960 that's how I'll make
00:13:05.840 my decision.
00:13:07.400 You can't do that.
00:13:09.660 You don't know
00:13:10.640 who's lying to you
00:13:11.740 because they're all
00:13:13.680 not trustworthy.
00:13:16.060 Everybody,
00:13:17.060 including me.
00:13:18.480 Do you trust me?
00:13:20.720 Should you?
00:13:23.160 Well,
00:13:23.860 what the hell
00:13:24.580 do I know
00:13:25.100 about medicine?
00:13:27.740 I wouldn't trust
00:13:28.420 me too much.
00:13:30.420 I mean,
00:13:30.760 here's the most
00:13:32.020 you should trust me.
00:13:32.880 This is the maximum
00:13:34.320 amount you should
00:13:35.020 trust me.
00:13:35.860 You should trust me
00:13:36.940 to be similar
00:13:37.660 to the way I have
00:13:38.520 been in the past.
00:13:40.680 Is that fair?
00:13:42.000 You should trust me
00:13:43.120 to be the same person
00:13:44.360 I was,
00:13:45.160 you know,
00:13:45.420 a year ago.
00:13:46.060 I haven't really
00:13:46.480 changed that much.
00:13:47.220 That's all you can trust.
00:13:49.020 Now,
00:13:49.280 if you said,
00:13:49.740 okay,
00:13:49.980 a year ago,
00:13:51.260 you said some things
00:13:52.280 that were surprisingly
00:13:53.420 good predictions,
00:13:54.900 but you also got
00:13:56.100 some notable things wrong.
00:13:58.680 Is that a fair statement?
00:13:59.800 Is that a fair characterization
00:14:01.960 of me?
00:14:03.960 That I had some
00:14:04.760 impressive predictions
00:14:05.980 in the last five years,
00:14:07.560 let's say,
00:14:08.260 but also got some
00:14:10.420 big stuff wrong,
00:14:11.640 like everybody did.
00:14:12.940 Is that a fair characterization?
00:14:16.300 So why would you
00:14:17.300 trust me?
00:14:19.980 How can you tell
00:14:21.300 that the next thing
00:14:23.000 I make a prediction
00:14:24.160 on is a good one?
00:14:25.000 If you could tell
00:14:27.960 which of my predictions
00:14:28.800 were good ones,
00:14:30.380 then you would be
00:14:31.120 good at predicting.
00:14:32.040 You wouldn't need me at all
00:14:33.040 if you could tell
00:14:34.700 the good ones
00:14:35.340 from the bad ones.
00:14:36.960 You can't.
00:14:38.540 Even I can't tell
00:14:39.300 the good ones
00:14:39.800 from the bad ones.
00:14:41.160 You know,
00:14:41.420 I have varying levels
00:14:42.860 of confidence,
00:14:43.760 but that's different
00:14:44.400 from knowing
00:14:44.920 what is likely
00:14:46.280 to be right.
00:14:47.800 So,
00:14:48.400 I think all of us
00:14:50.060 need to get
00:14:50.520 a little more humble
00:14:51.960 about how we're
00:14:53.860 making decisions.
00:14:55.000 Let me tell you
00:14:56.140 what I learned
00:14:56.680 on day one
00:14:57.460 in hypnosis class.
00:14:59.380 If there's anybody
00:15:00.040 on YouTube watching,
00:15:01.800 there might be
00:15:02.420 three people
00:15:02.940 who don't know
00:15:03.460 I'm a trained hypnotist.
00:15:05.560 But the first day
00:15:06.500 of hypnosis class,
00:15:07.640 decades ago,
00:15:09.200 the first thing you learn
00:15:10.080 is that people
00:15:10.560 don't use information
00:15:11.500 to make decisions.
00:15:13.560 And when you hear it,
00:15:14.380 you're like,
00:15:14.720 oh, I think
00:15:15.420 that's an exaggeration.
00:15:17.200 I mean,
00:15:18.120 yes,
00:15:18.540 some people,
00:15:19.540 some decisions,
00:15:20.340 yeah, I see what you mean.
00:15:21.480 But now you're
00:15:22.080 into outright hyperbole.
00:15:23.560 Because obviously
00:15:25.420 people do use data
00:15:27.280 to make decisions.
00:15:30.120 Nope.
00:15:32.100 Nope.
00:15:33.300 Never.
00:15:34.780 Never.
00:15:36.020 They just don't.
00:15:37.580 They don't use data
00:15:38.520 to make decisions.
00:15:39.440 It's just an illusion
00:15:40.640 that we do.
00:15:41.880 Now,
00:15:42.460 do we
00:15:43.140 make decisions
00:15:44.480 that are in the same
00:15:45.260 direction as the data
00:15:46.320 and then they work out well?
00:15:49.180 Yes, we do.
00:15:50.320 Yes, we do.
00:15:50.840 We also
00:15:52.260 look at the data
00:15:54.000 and misinterpret
00:15:55.100 and do things
00:15:56.780 and sometimes
00:15:57.280 that works out well too.
00:15:59.160 Because we not only
00:16:00.160 misinterpreted the problem,
00:16:02.040 but we misinterpreted
00:16:03.120 the answer.
00:16:03.940 And we got lucky.
00:16:05.580 And our misinterpreted problem
00:16:07.020 was solved
00:16:07.500 by our misinterpreted answer.
00:16:10.080 But mostly,
00:16:11.060 we're doing random stuff
00:16:12.200 or we're doing things
00:16:13.780 because other people
00:16:14.660 say we should do them
00:16:15.520 or we're,
00:16:16.340 you know,
00:16:17.060 we're afraid to buck
00:16:18.180 the other opinions
00:16:20.120 or something like that.
00:16:21.500 But does it have
00:16:22.120 anything to do
00:16:22.700 with the data?
00:16:25.000 We'd like to think so.
00:16:27.120 But trust the hypnotists.
00:16:30.380 Funniest story of the day
00:16:31.500 is Don Lemon
00:16:32.320 doubling down
00:16:33.300 and defending CNN's
00:16:35.480 characterization
00:16:36.920 of Joe Rogan's
00:16:38.920 COVID treatment
00:16:42.100 that included,
00:16:43.220 among other things,
00:16:44.080 ivermectin,
00:16:45.040 the humankind.
00:16:45.640 Yeah, yeah.
00:16:47.520 Has anybody heard
00:16:48.220 that before?
00:16:49.460 That ivermectin
00:16:50.320 comes in two forms?
00:16:51.920 One, the humankind,
00:16:53.700 developed first,
00:16:54.880 very important.
00:16:56.000 Later,
00:16:56.580 became also
00:16:57.200 a veterinarian
00:16:57.920 horse dewormer.
00:17:01.340 And Don Lemon
00:17:02.040 has Sanjay Gupta on
00:17:03.480 and he's doubling down
00:17:06.020 on CNN's lie.
00:17:07.520 Now, it's a lie
00:17:08.140 of omission.
00:17:10.240 Right?
00:17:10.800 Don Lemon tries
00:17:11.660 to go technical.
00:17:13.560 He's like,
00:17:13.980 it's not a lie
00:17:15.140 that ivermectin
00:17:16.120 is a horse warmer
00:17:17.200 and Sanjay,
00:17:19.740 to his everlasting
00:17:21.320 lack of credit,
00:17:23.520 agreed with that statement.
00:17:25.800 Sanjay,
00:17:26.660 I just embarrassed myself
00:17:28.380 by defending you yesterday.
00:17:30.440 You motherfucker.
00:17:32.180 I just defended you
00:17:33.540 in public yesterday
00:17:34.460 for being reasonable
00:17:36.180 in not defending CNN
00:17:38.320 for the dewormer stuff.
00:17:40.700 And then he goes
00:17:42.780 right on back
00:17:43.520 on CNN
00:17:44.120 and lets the lie
00:17:45.840 by omission
00:17:46.500 stand.
00:17:48.380 I mean,
00:17:48.740 seriously, Sanjay.
00:17:50.860 Mmm.
00:17:52.580 We do expect
00:17:53.720 a little more
00:17:54.240 out of you,
00:17:54.820 if I'm being honest,
00:17:56.040 because I know
00:17:56.620 you have more.
00:17:58.780 I will reiterate
00:18:00.240 that I don't think
00:18:02.100 Dr. Sanjay Gupta
00:18:03.500 is one of the bad guys.
00:18:05.280 I think he's one
00:18:06.040 of the good guys.
00:18:07.200 But he also
00:18:07.860 has a boss, right?
00:18:08.840 If you have a boss,
00:18:09.840 you're going to respond to it.
00:18:11.360 And I would advise
00:18:13.580 Sanjay Gupta
00:18:15.180 that he could push
00:18:16.660 a lot harder
00:18:17.360 on his bosses
00:18:18.500 and his co-workers
00:18:19.700 without real risk.
00:18:22.000 Because the only thing
00:18:22.980 I would ask him to say
00:18:24.060 is it could be misleading
00:18:27.280 to people
00:18:27.860 to not call this
00:18:29.400 a human drug first.
00:18:32.380 It's worth pointing out
00:18:33.600 if you'd like to
00:18:34.300 for context
00:18:35.020 that it's also
00:18:35.660 horse dewormer.
00:18:36.700 But that part
00:18:37.360 is not relevant.
00:18:38.840 What so ever
00:18:39.820 to Joe Rogan's decision
00:18:42.060 to take a human drug.
00:18:44.200 Now that would be
00:18:45.020 a good answer, right?
00:18:46.280 It would not
00:18:47.740 directly call CNN
00:18:49.020 liars.
00:18:50.340 But it would correct them
00:18:51.620 and say,
00:18:52.120 you know,
00:18:53.380 let's say the better context
00:18:55.560 is to start by saying
00:18:56.920 it's a human drug.
00:18:58.960 They can be
00:19:00.060 prescribed off-label.
00:19:02.620 Don't know
00:19:03.100 if it works or not.
00:19:04.900 The evidence
00:19:05.920 is not confirming
00:19:06.880 that it works.
00:19:08.820 But it's not unusual
00:19:10.340 for people
00:19:10.860 to take that kind
00:19:11.640 of risk
00:19:12.040 with such a
00:19:13.040 small chance
00:19:14.120 of side effects.
00:19:15.840 Now if Dr. Sanjay Gupta
00:19:17.160 said anything like that,
00:19:19.380 I'd say
00:19:20.060 that's a pretty good answer.
00:19:21.400 He's not really
00:19:22.040 calling CNN out
00:19:24.100 as liars,
00:19:25.500 but he's fixing
00:19:26.280 their context
00:19:27.020 for them.
00:19:27.540 Don't you think
00:19:29.500 he should do that?
00:19:30.180 I feel like
00:19:32.020 there's an ethical
00:19:32.980 lapse
00:19:33.600 in this story.
00:19:37.020 I mean,
00:19:37.360 just from,
00:19:37.900 it's subjective, right?
00:19:39.240 You know,
00:19:39.420 you can't,
00:19:40.040 it's not an objective thing.
00:19:41.560 But subjectively
00:19:42.480 it looks like
00:19:43.000 an ethical lapse.
00:19:45.040 Not a big one.
00:19:46.480 I mean,
00:19:46.900 it's smallish.
00:19:48.520 But I feel
00:19:49.240 if you're in the
00:19:49.980 medical field
00:19:51.200 that you shouldn't
00:19:53.040 have any of those.
00:19:54.320 And when you do,
00:19:55.660 you should quickly
00:19:56.520 circle back
00:19:57.160 to correct it.
00:19:58.220 Because obviously,
00:19:59.040 you know,
00:19:59.240 mistakes happen.
00:20:00.900 But,
00:20:01.800 so that would be
00:20:03.000 my ask
00:20:04.180 for Dr. Gupta.
00:20:06.160 If he had a chance
00:20:07.180 to circle back
00:20:08.040 and just put a little
00:20:09.520 context on that
00:20:10.400 for us.
00:20:11.300 It would just feel,
00:20:12.700 feel a little better.
00:20:16.260 All right.
00:20:17.180 But the fact
00:20:17.940 that Don Lemon
00:20:18.500 is trying to double down
00:20:19.500 on that live bio mission
00:20:21.000 is hilarious.
00:20:23.340 He's a broken man,
00:20:24.640 isn't he?
00:20:26.260 Don Lemon
00:20:26.820 looks broken.
00:20:28.360 I mean,
00:20:28.520 he's got,
00:20:28.840 he's dealing
00:20:29.700 with a pretty
00:20:30.120 serious
00:20:30.640 sexual harassment
00:20:32.980 allegation
00:20:33.740 from a man
00:20:35.620 who says
00:20:36.000 that he got
00:20:37.340 touched.
00:20:38.260 We don't know
00:20:38.900 if that's true.
00:20:40.020 Remember,
00:20:40.660 the context here
00:20:41.480 is we don't know
00:20:42.040 if anything's true.
00:20:43.320 It's just an allegation.
00:20:45.500 But he's having
00:20:46.360 a tough time
00:20:46.900 with this.
00:20:47.720 Don Lemon is.
00:20:49.480 I wish him well.
00:20:52.220 So,
00:20:52.800 here's a question
00:20:53.880 for you.
00:20:54.240 I tweeted
00:20:55.060 I tweeted
00:20:55.080 a thread
00:20:56.020 yesterday
00:20:56.560 in which
00:20:58.120 I
00:20:58.540 reframed
00:21:00.140 Trump's
00:21:00.840 challenging
00:21:01.360 of the 2020
00:21:02.260 election
00:21:02.780 and
00:21:04.680 it got
00:21:06.220 very few
00:21:06.920 retweets.
00:21:08.960 What's up
00:21:09.700 with that?
00:21:11.560 So,
00:21:13.020 keep in mind,
00:21:14.060 here's some context.
00:21:15.020 When most of you
00:21:15.720 were claiming,
00:21:16.420 I think,
00:21:17.360 Twitter is shadow
00:21:18.180 banning me
00:21:18.820 and your tweets
00:21:19.640 don't show up,
00:21:20.880 I was pretty much
00:21:22.000 on the side
00:21:22.540 of saying
00:21:22.980 that's probably
00:21:23.860 an illusion
00:21:24.480 based on the fact
00:21:26.140 that not all
00:21:28.300 tweets show up
00:21:29.120 and there are
00:21:30.000 reasons for it.
00:21:30.680 It might not be
00:21:31.320 a bad reason.
00:21:33.300 But,
00:21:33.980 I tweeted
00:21:35.420 something that
00:21:36.120 in any prior time
00:21:37.720 I think would
00:21:39.560 have been over
00:21:40.080 a thousand
00:21:40.600 retweets easily
00:21:41.640 just because
00:21:42.480 of the content.
00:21:43.440 I'm reasonably
00:21:44.080 good at guessing
00:21:44.740 which of my tweets
00:21:45.540 will get big
00:21:46.760 responses and
00:21:47.620 which won't.
00:21:48.980 I have a pretty
00:21:49.960 good track record
00:21:50.860 of it.
00:21:51.160 Because the ones
00:21:51.880 that go viral
00:21:52.600 have certain
00:21:53.120 qualities to them.
00:21:54.800 This one had
00:21:55.560 all the qualities
00:21:56.560 of a viral tweet
00:21:57.780 and it just sat
00:21:59.280 there and died.
00:22:00.540 When I checked
00:22:01.040 it was at
00:22:01.520 187
00:22:02.540 tweets,
00:22:05.080 retweets.
00:22:06.620 Tweets,
00:22:07.060 I guess.
00:22:07.820 What would you
00:22:08.360 call it?
00:22:08.620 I guess it would
00:22:08.960 be a retweet
00:22:09.440 because I'm
00:22:09.840 the original
00:22:10.240 author.
00:22:13.380 And I'll
00:22:14.620 tell you what
00:22:14.960 the thread was
00:22:15.440 about in a minute
00:22:15.920 but is this
00:22:17.920 an obvious
00:22:18.420 shadow ban?
00:22:19.800 Now,
00:22:20.260 the people who
00:22:20.740 said they
00:22:21.000 didn't get it,
00:22:21.760 remember,
00:22:22.240 you don't get
00:22:22.800 everybody's
00:22:23.420 everything.
00:22:24.500 That's normal.
00:22:25.660 Does everybody
00:22:26.080 know that?
00:22:26.940 It's normal
00:22:27.740 that you don't
00:22:29.460 get everybody's
00:22:30.340 every tweet.
00:22:32.620 You should know
00:22:33.360 that's normal.
00:22:33.880 I think there's
00:22:34.660 a setting
00:22:35.140 that allows you
00:22:36.880 to see them
00:22:38.900 all or see them
00:22:39.860 according to the
00:22:40.480 algorithm or
00:22:41.060 something,
00:22:41.420 right?
00:22:41.560 Now,
00:22:44.280 you're wondering
00:22:45.240 if it picked
00:22:45.900 up a keyword
00:22:46.480 the algorithm
00:22:47.140 did and
00:22:47.640 suppressed this.
00:22:48.840 I had 38
00:22:49.760 quote tweets.
00:22:52.160 Listen to this
00:22:52.760 ratio.
00:22:53.380 There were 187
00:22:54.240 tweets which
00:22:55.600 would suggest
00:22:56.260 a low amount
00:22:57.580 of interest
00:22:58.160 based on the
00:22:59.440 size of my
00:23:00.100 follower base.
00:23:00.760 So over
00:23:01.680 640,000 followers,
00:23:05.360 something like
00:23:05.900 that.
00:23:06.120 And for me
00:23:07.640 to only get
00:23:08.120 187 tweets
00:23:09.760 after a day
00:23:11.260 would be low.
00:23:13.680 So that would
00:23:14.020 be a low number
00:23:14.680 of tweets.
00:23:15.380 But 38
00:23:16.080 quote tweets,
00:23:17.200 that's a lot.
00:23:19.580 So it suggests
00:23:20.540 that the people
00:23:21.120 who did see it
00:23:21.980 were very
00:23:23.140 interested in
00:23:23.820 engaging with it.
00:23:25.240 But not many
00:23:25.880 people saw it.
00:23:27.900 So what is
00:23:29.220 the situation
00:23:29.780 in which many
00:23:30.460 people are
00:23:30.900 interested in
00:23:31.640 engaging and
00:23:32.480 yet many people
00:23:33.140 didn't engage?
00:23:34.500 How does that
00:23:35.020 happen?
00:23:36.120 Well, am I
00:23:37.260 reading too much
00:23:37.960 into the data?
00:23:40.460 Yeah, because
00:23:41.460 sometimes you do
00:23:42.120 get a lot of
00:23:42.600 quote tweets
00:23:43.240 relative to the
00:23:44.360 number of tweets.
00:23:45.420 So I check my
00:23:46.400 history to see
00:23:47.600 if that ever
00:23:48.120 happens.
00:23:48.560 And it does
00:23:48.880 happen in
00:23:49.800 situations where
00:23:50.680 just people have
00:23:52.220 a reason to
00:23:52.800 comment.
00:23:54.040 It doesn't
00:23:54.540 necessarily mean
00:23:55.700 something's up.
00:23:56.720 But it's a
00:23:57.580 flag.
00:23:58.880 Sort of a
00:23:59.580 flag.
00:24:00.020 You say,
00:24:00.220 maybe I should
00:24:01.780 look at this
00:24:02.560 a little more.
00:24:03.580 Now, would
00:24:04.200 you be surprised
00:24:04.980 if Trump
00:24:05.940 being banned
00:24:06.740 from Twitter
00:24:07.320 was not
00:24:08.380 also at
00:24:09.780 least suppressed
00:24:10.520 so that other
00:24:12.000 people don't
00:24:12.620 just tweet
00:24:13.440 his material
00:24:13.960 for him?
00:24:15.400 Because what
00:24:15.800 would Twitter
00:24:16.180 do if,
00:24:17.260 let's say,
00:24:18.240 let's say
00:24:19.980 somebody like
00:24:20.560 me,
00:24:21.580 just to make
00:24:23.160 it interesting,
00:24:24.080 let's say
00:24:24.340 somebody like
00:24:24.840 me makes a
00:24:26.120 deal with
00:24:26.540 Trump and
00:24:26.960 says, hey,
00:24:27.620 I'll retweet
00:24:28.560 everything you
00:24:29.180 want me to
00:24:29.580 tweet.
00:24:30.460 It'll just
00:24:31.040 come from my
00:24:31.560 account.
00:24:31.940 You can
00:24:33.240 tell that
00:24:33.640 it's from
00:24:34.000 you,
00:24:34.920 but I'll
00:24:35.520 just be
00:24:35.800 your official
00:24:36.340 retweeter.
00:24:37.920 Now, what
00:24:38.200 would happen?
00:24:39.020 Wouldn't
00:24:39.400 Twitter shut
00:24:39.940 you down?
00:24:41.240 I mean, they
00:24:41.620 should, right?
00:24:42.360 It makes
00:24:42.760 sense.
00:24:43.140 If they're
00:24:43.380 going to ban
00:24:43.800 the author,
00:24:46.780 which would
00:24:47.100 be Trump,
00:24:48.800 wouldn't they
00:24:49.440 necessarily need
00:24:50.360 to ban
00:24:50.840 anybody who
00:24:51.480 was just
00:24:51.800 going to
00:24:52.040 retweet
00:24:52.380 everything he
00:24:52.900 said?
00:24:53.800 Now, there
00:24:54.360 are people
00:24:54.760 who retweet
00:24:55.400 everything he
00:24:56.540 said, but
00:24:57.800 they tend to
00:24:58.180 be smaller
00:24:58.680 accounts, and
00:24:59.440 they haven't
00:24:59.740 really been
00:25:00.120 picked up
00:25:00.720 as the
00:25:01.880 way to
00:25:02.400 follow him.
00:25:03.420 If he
00:25:04.020 actually gets
00:25:04.920 in the race,
00:25:06.520 I think
00:25:06.880 those, let's
00:25:08.160 call them,
00:25:08.820 what would
00:25:09.120 you call
00:25:09.280 them, mirror
00:25:09.740 accounts, or
00:25:11.480 retweeter
00:25:12.140 accounts, or
00:25:12.720 something, I
00:25:13.440 think there
00:25:13.740 will be a
00:25:14.040 number of
00:25:14.400 them, so
00:25:15.420 you'll be
00:25:15.780 able to
00:25:16.040 follow Trump.
00:25:17.300 You'll just
00:25:17.720 be following
00:25:18.240 the mirror,
00:25:20.280 people being
00:25:21.260 a mirror.
00:25:22.340 Now, will
00:25:22.700 all those
00:25:23.080 people be
00:25:23.520 banned?
00:25:25.340 They should,
00:25:26.240 right?
00:25:27.020 I mean, should,
00:25:28.440 based on the
00:25:29.220 consistency of
00:25:30.260 the guidelines,
00:25:31.920 I would
00:25:32.220 think.
00:25:32.940 It's the
00:25:33.340 same content,
00:25:34.180 so why
00:25:34.480 wouldn't you
00:25:34.800 ban it?
00:25:36.240 I don't
00:25:36.760 know.
00:25:37.000 I don't
00:25:37.300 know if
00:25:37.540 they would
00:25:37.800 treat it
00:25:38.080 that way,
00:25:38.560 but logically
00:25:39.320 you would
00:25:39.780 imagine they
00:25:40.240 might.
00:25:41.000 So here's
00:25:41.460 my question.
00:25:42.360 If Trump
00:25:42.900 himself is
00:25:43.560 banned, why
00:25:44.600 wouldn't
00:25:45.700 Twitter also
00:25:46.640 suppress topics
00:25:48.400 that are
00:25:48.820 favorable to
00:25:49.560 him?
00:25:50.560 I feel like
00:25:51.140 that just
00:25:51.520 makes sense,
00:25:52.760 right?
00:25:53.560 Less Trump
00:25:54.200 is less
00:25:54.580 Trump.
00:25:55.300 They either
00:25:55.740 wanted more
00:25:56.260 of him or
00:25:56.660 less of him,
00:25:57.200 and they
00:25:57.420 decided to
00:25:58.140 have less
00:25:58.480 of him.
00:25:59.220 So let
00:26:00.740 me tell
00:26:00.980 you what
00:26:01.240 I tweeted,
00:26:02.520 and I
00:26:03.380 need your
00:26:03.740 help here,
00:26:04.400 okay?
00:26:05.200 I'm asking
00:26:06.100 for your
00:26:06.740 help.
00:26:07.820 I have a
00:26:08.780 bias here
00:26:09.420 that's pretty
00:26:10.320 obvious,
00:26:11.100 because I
00:26:11.420 think my
00:26:11.820 tweet was
00:26:12.220 good,
00:26:13.000 but I'm
00:26:13.800 operating from
00:26:14.420 deep bias.
00:26:16.000 You have
00:26:16.700 less bias
00:26:17.340 relative to
00:26:18.020 me on this
00:26:18.660 topic.
00:26:19.320 I want to
00:26:19.660 see if you
00:26:20.920 can call out
00:26:21.540 my bias on
00:26:22.320 this.
00:26:23.320 Am I
00:26:23.720 wrong?
00:26:25.260 All right,
00:26:25.480 let me tell
00:26:26.060 you what the
00:26:26.360 point is.
00:26:26.760 So the
00:26:27.820 point of
00:26:28.120 the
00:26:28.220 thread was
00:26:28.580 this,
00:26:29.420 that most
00:26:30.180 people think
00:26:30.720 Trump is
00:26:31.240 making a
00:26:31.700 terrible
00:26:32.020 mistake in
00:26:33.700 continuing to
00:26:34.760 hammer on
00:26:38.920 the 2020
00:26:40.000 election,
00:26:40.820 and also to
00:26:41.680 continue to
00:26:42.260 claim that
00:26:42.820 there was
00:26:43.100 massive fraud
00:26:43.880 and that
00:26:44.260 it's all
00:26:44.600 been documented.
00:26:47.220 Now,
00:26:48.380 number one,
00:26:49.140 how many of
00:26:49.600 you think
00:26:50.000 that's a
00:26:50.620 bad strategy?
00:26:52.140 Or up
00:26:52.620 until my
00:26:53.440 tweet,
00:26:53.800 how many of
00:26:54.560 you thought
00:26:54.860 that was
00:26:55.100 a bad
00:26:55.560 strategy to
00:26:56.920 just keep
00:26:57.440 hammering on
00:26:58.120 that 2020
00:26:59.200 election?
00:27:01.180 All right?
00:27:02.060 Forget about
00:27:02.760 whether he's
00:27:03.180 right.
00:27:04.080 We're not
00:27:04.680 talking about
00:27:05.120 right or
00:27:05.440 wrong.
00:27:05.740 We're only
00:27:05.980 talking about
00:27:06.320 strategy.
00:27:08.320 All right,
00:27:08.540 so a lot of
00:27:09.040 people saying
00:27:09.880 they think
00:27:11.340 it's a bad
00:27:11.820 strategy.
00:27:13.580 All right,
00:27:14.100 so here's my
00:27:14.920 argument for
00:27:15.520 why it's a
00:27:15.980 good strategy.
00:27:18.260 You ready?
00:27:20.280 Do you think
00:27:20.960 I can convince
00:27:21.580 you it's a
00:27:22.020 good strategy?
00:27:23.580 How many
00:27:23.900 think I can
00:27:24.440 do that?
00:27:24.860 Here's the
00:27:27.400 argument,
00:27:27.880 and it goes
00:27:28.260 like this.
00:27:30.040 What are
00:27:30.280 the odds
00:27:30.840 that at
00:27:32.140 least one
00:27:32.760 precinct
00:27:33.380 somewhere in
00:27:34.520 all the
00:27:34.940 precincts
00:27:35.840 can be
00:27:36.580 found that
00:27:37.180 was clearly
00:27:37.720 fraud?
00:27:39.980 Now,
00:27:40.580 we're not
00:27:41.100 looking at
00:27:41.540 every precinct,
00:27:42.720 so that
00:27:43.040 doesn't mean
00:27:43.420 we'll find
00:27:43.820 it,
00:27:44.240 but it's
00:27:44.560 a big
00:27:44.800 country.
00:27:46.220 What are
00:27:46.560 the odds
00:27:46.920 that there's
00:27:47.320 no precincts
00:27:48.800 which flip
00:27:49.700 from Biden
00:27:50.540 to Trump?
00:27:51.380 Now,
00:27:51.540 remember,
00:27:51.860 a precinct
00:27:52.240 is not a
00:27:52.760 state,
00:27:54.000 and a
00:27:54.280 precinct is
00:27:54.840 not a
00:27:55.140 county.
00:27:56.140 Precinct would
00:27:56.660 be the
00:27:57.220 smallest unit.
00:27:59.720 In any
00:28:00.400 large,
00:28:01.040 complex
00:28:01.400 system,
00:28:02.580 is there
00:28:03.980 fraud?
00:28:05.480 Let's take
00:28:06.100 the stock
00:28:06.540 market.
00:28:07.720 The stock
00:28:08.340 market is
00:28:08.980 policed
00:28:09.580 pretty carefully.
00:28:12.020 The stock
00:28:12.500 market is
00:28:12.860 also a big
00:28:13.660 thing with
00:28:15.060 lots of
00:28:15.380 people involved.
00:28:17.020 Is there
00:28:17.560 always fraud
00:28:19.200 in the stock
00:28:19.840 market?
00:28:21.160 Yes.
00:28:21.800 Yes.
00:28:22.080 The odds
00:28:22.480 of finding
00:28:22.920 fraud in
00:28:24.180 the stock
00:28:24.580 market,
00:28:25.040 let's say,
00:28:25.420 next year,
00:28:26.660 specific
00:28:27.100 examples are
00:28:27.980 100%.
00:28:28.640 Does everybody
00:28:29.640 agree it's
00:28:30.000 100%?
00:28:31.400 That if you
00:28:32.480 look for
00:28:32.880 fraud,
00:28:33.540 some,
00:28:33.960 just any
00:28:34.400 example of
00:28:35.020 fraud in
00:28:35.420 the stock
00:28:35.820 market,
00:28:37.240 next year,
00:28:38.880 100% chance
00:28:39.740 you would
00:28:39.940 find it.
00:28:41.520 Yes,
00:28:42.000 right?
00:28:42.200 It's just
00:28:42.460 obvious.
00:28:43.340 Now,
00:28:43.620 let's take a
00:28:44.200 big pharmaceutical
00:28:44.840 company.
00:28:45.640 Pick any one.
00:28:47.120 They've got
00:28:47.400 lots of
00:28:47.840 products,
00:28:48.480 lots of
00:28:48.820 trials,
00:28:49.240 lots of
00:28:49.760 things.
00:28:50.440 Do you
00:28:50.700 think that
00:28:51.780 in any
00:28:52.060 big pharma
00:28:52.640 company,
00:28:53.100 even one
00:28:53.560 that you
00:28:53.820 respect,
00:28:55.440 do you
00:28:55.680 think that
00:28:56.040 if you
00:28:56.380 could somehow
00:28:56.980 look at
00:28:57.340 all the
00:28:57.740 things they're
00:28:58.180 doing,
00:28:59.140 like all
00:28:59.620 the employee
00:29:00.160 decisions,
00:29:01.060 the studies
00:29:01.720 and everything,
00:29:02.540 do you
00:29:02.740 think you
00:29:03.020 would find
00:29:03.340 any
00:29:03.620 corruption
00:29:04.060 in a
00:29:05.340 big
00:29:06.140 pharmaceutical
00:29:07.100 company?
00:29:08.100 Just one
00:29:08.680 person doing
00:29:09.280 one corrupt
00:29:09.780 thing,
00:29:10.100 do you
00:29:10.260 think?
00:29:11.060 Yes.
00:29:11.840 And what
00:29:12.180 are the
00:29:12.380 odds you
00:29:12.740 would find
00:29:13.080 it?
00:29:13.620 What are
00:29:13.840 the odds?
00:29:16.080 100%.
00:29:16.520 I mean,
00:29:17.760 if you
00:29:17.980 had the
00:29:18.240 ability to
00:29:18.800 look for
00:29:19.240 it,
00:29:19.660 you don't
00:29:20.000 always have
00:29:20.320 the ability
00:29:20.740 to look
00:29:21.160 for it,
00:29:21.780 but if
00:29:22.180 you could,
00:29:23.720 it would
00:29:24.020 be 100%.
00:29:24.880 You don't
00:29:25.580 know how
00:29:25.800 big it
00:29:26.080 is.
00:29:26.720 I'm not
00:29:27.040 saying it
00:29:27.380 was big
00:29:27.700 enough to
00:29:28.320 recall a
00:29:29.680 drug or
00:29:30.060 anything like
00:29:30.460 that,
00:29:31.320 but yeah,
00:29:31.820 100%.
00:29:32.640 how about
00:29:34.800 the government?
00:29:36.580 Let's
00:29:36.860 take Congress.
00:29:38.020 Congress is
00:29:38.620 a pretty
00:29:38.900 big body
00:29:39.520 of people.
00:29:40.740 What are
00:29:40.960 the odds
00:29:41.440 that there's
00:29:42.560 not one
00:29:43.440 person in
00:29:43.980 Congress
00:29:44.420 who's
00:29:45.320 somewhat
00:29:45.960 explicitly
00:29:46.580 taking a
00:29:47.300 bribe?
00:29:49.180 Zero,
00:29:50.200 right?
00:29:51.840 Even if
00:29:52.680 you believe
00:29:53.100 Congress is
00:29:53.740 mostly pretty
00:29:55.180 honest,
00:29:55.920 because we're
00:29:56.340 watching them
00:29:56.880 pretty closely,
00:29:57.420 what are
00:29:59.040 the odds
00:29:59.340 that at
00:29:59.740 least one
00:30:00.320 person is
00:30:02.280 doing something
00:30:02.920 that's close
00:30:03.740 to,
00:30:04.060 maybe it's
00:30:04.400 legal,
00:30:05.240 but in
00:30:05.680 effect it's
00:30:06.280 a bribe,
00:30:07.040 something unethical?
00:30:08.640 What are
00:30:09.080 the odds
00:30:09.300 that at
00:30:09.480 least one
00:30:09.980 congressman
00:30:10.620 will do
00:30:11.060 that next
00:30:11.580 year?
00:30:12.320 It's 100%.
00:30:13.300 It's 100%.
00:30:15.480 Now let's
00:30:16.360 get back to
00:30:16.800 the election.
00:30:18.120 So the
00:30:18.360 election is
00:30:19.100 thousands and
00:30:20.260 thousands of
00:30:20.820 people operating
00:30:22.260 semi-independently
00:30:23.600 all over the
00:30:24.320 country.
00:30:25.140 Every precinct
00:30:25.940 is managed
00:30:26.540 in its own
00:30:27.120 way,
00:30:27.420 with its
00:30:27.760 own people.
00:30:29.080 A vast
00:30:29.960 process.
00:30:31.800 What are
00:30:32.020 the odds
00:30:32.520 that one
00:30:33.780 of those
00:30:34.180 precincts
00:30:35.620 cheated in
00:30:36.500 a way that
00:30:37.060 flipped it
00:30:38.180 from,
00:30:38.460 and intentionally
00:30:39.040 cheated,
00:30:39.820 from the way
00:30:40.240 that flipped
00:30:40.620 it from
00:30:40.920 Biden to
00:30:41.440 Trump?
00:30:41.800 Just one
00:30:42.180 of them.
00:30:43.160 How many
00:30:44.360 precincts
00:30:44.860 are there?
00:30:45.440 Somebody
00:30:45.880 give me a
00:30:46.260 fact check.
00:30:47.160 How many
00:30:47.560 precincts
00:30:48.100 are there
00:30:48.360 in the
00:30:48.540 country?
00:30:48.900 Just Google
00:30:49.340 that and
00:30:49.660 put it in
00:30:49.940 the comments
00:30:50.320 for a
00:30:50.580 second.
00:30:51.460 Yeah,
00:30:51.740 100%.
00:30:52.520 Now look
00:30:54.360 at Trump's
00:30:55.120 bet.
00:30:55.560 does Trump
00:30:57.520 need to
00:30:58.140 prove to
00:30:58.560 you that
00:31:00.380 enough votes
00:31:01.540 were flipped
00:31:02.180 to change
00:31:04.220 the election
00:31:04.760 result?
00:31:05.660 Does Trump
00:31:06.380 need to
00:31:06.960 prove to
00:31:07.340 you in
00:31:08.540 court that
00:31:09.900 there were
00:31:10.180 enough votes
00:31:10.980 flipped to
00:31:12.520 change the
00:31:13.080 election?
00:31:13.900 He does
00:31:14.300 not.
00:31:14.700 because you
00:31:16.760 know why?
00:31:18.340 You all
00:31:19.240 operate on
00:31:20.020 anecdotes.
00:31:21.820 You need
00:31:22.720 one good
00:31:23.620 example that
00:31:24.560 you believe
00:31:25.080 for sure.
00:31:26.820 Arizona is
00:31:27.580 kind of
00:31:27.860 sketchy,
00:31:28.320 isn't it?
00:31:28.720 Because even
00:31:29.140 the people
00:31:29.540 who ordered
00:31:29.980 it said,
00:31:30.440 you know,
00:31:32.240 maybe we're
00:31:34.460 a little
00:31:34.820 uncomfortable,
00:31:36.460 but we
00:31:38.300 can't say
00:31:38.840 for sure
00:31:39.780 it was
00:31:41.020 rigged.
00:31:41.540 But what
00:31:42.400 if you
00:31:42.600 had one
00:31:43.040 precinct
00:31:43.580 where the
00:31:44.780 question was
00:31:45.460 asked and
00:31:45.980 answered and
00:31:46.560 everybody knew
00:31:47.220 it was
00:31:47.420 rigged?
00:31:48.240 Even the
00:31:48.760 Democrats said,
00:31:49.640 oh, okay,
00:31:50.200 that one's
00:31:50.540 rigged.
00:31:51.280 But it's
00:31:51.880 small.
00:31:52.280 It's small.
00:31:53.060 It's just
00:31:53.360 one precinct.
00:31:54.540 Nobody's
00:31:55.020 proving that
00:31:55.580 the election
00:31:56.080 was rigged.
00:31:56.820 Just one
00:31:57.260 precinct.
00:31:59.280 If Trump
00:32:00.180 gets one
00:32:01.180 precinct that
00:32:03.420 even Democrats
00:32:04.380 can see was
00:32:05.360 clearly fraud,
00:32:07.660 he's your
00:32:08.340 next president.
00:32:09.000 because how
00:32:10.900 does January
00:32:11.440 6th look
00:32:12.520 if he can
00:32:14.260 find one
00:32:15.100 precinct,
00:32:16.140 just one,
00:32:17.160 that there
00:32:18.040 was fraud?
00:32:19.700 Suddenly,
00:32:20.400 January 6th
00:32:21.120 looks really
00:32:21.580 different,
00:32:22.000 doesn't it?
00:32:23.060 Now, it
00:32:23.900 doesn't make
00:32:24.420 any of the
00:32:24.840 crimes go
00:32:25.440 away, right?
00:32:26.360 Anybody who
00:32:27.060 engaged in
00:32:27.780 violence will
00:32:29.220 pay a price,
00:32:29.920 and I'm
00:32:30.740 happy about
00:32:31.320 that.
00:32:32.520 But your
00:32:33.900 overall feeling
00:32:35.280 of how
00:32:36.540 inappropriate
00:32:37.260 Trump was
00:32:38.600 will very
00:32:39.740 much be
00:32:40.280 modified if
00:32:41.680 we find
00:32:42.200 one solid
00:32:43.140 example.
00:32:44.840 So Trump
00:32:45.680 is making
00:32:46.140 a bet that
00:32:47.740 he has a
00:32:48.080 good chance
00:32:48.440 of losing,
00:32:49.780 because maybe
00:32:50.300 we won't
00:32:50.740 find one
00:32:51.300 precinct with
00:32:51.900 that problem.
00:32:53.020 But he's
00:32:54.680 only one
00:32:55.320 precinct away
00:32:56.240 from being
00:32:57.140 the next
00:32:57.540 president.
00:32:59.120 Nothing else
00:32:59.880 could keep
00:33:00.280 him out of
00:33:00.600 the office,
00:33:01.540 I don't
00:33:02.060 think.
00:33:02.560 I don't
00:33:03.100 think there's
00:33:03.440 anything else
00:33:04.000 that could
00:33:04.300 keep him
00:33:04.640 out of
00:33:04.900 office.
00:33:05.680 And because
00:33:06.020 he's so
00:33:06.440 far into it
00:33:07.040 at this
00:33:07.340 point,
00:33:07.620 January 6th,
00:33:09.460 etc., he's
00:33:10.580 so far
00:33:11.460 invested, he
00:33:12.180 kind of has
00:33:12.920 to ride this
00:33:13.720 horse all
00:33:14.200 the way.
00:33:15.300 If he
00:33:15.860 suddenly changed
00:33:16.700 opinion and
00:33:17.480 said, you
00:33:17.720 know, I'll
00:33:18.660 let this
00:33:19.040 election go,
00:33:20.920 his base
00:33:22.020 would rebel.
00:33:23.760 He would
00:33:24.340 lose his
00:33:24.840 base if he
00:33:25.500 let go of
00:33:26.020 it.
00:33:26.200 So, you
00:33:26.460 know, let's
00:33:27.300 let it go.
00:33:27.820 We'll just
00:33:28.100 play another
00:33:29.440 day.
00:33:30.500 He'd lose
00:33:31.100 his base.
00:33:32.260 So he
00:33:32.800 wants to
00:33:33.120 keep his
00:33:33.460 base, and
00:33:34.680 he's placed
00:33:35.540 a bet,
00:33:36.080 that they
00:33:38.380 can find
00:33:38.840 one example
00:33:40.320 he can
00:33:40.680 sell.
00:33:41.100 He only
00:33:41.460 needs one.
00:33:42.720 If he
00:33:43.140 can sell
00:33:43.560 one, he's
00:33:45.040 the next
00:33:45.420 president.
00:33:46.800 Now, here's
00:33:48.300 my question
00:33:48.760 I'm asking
00:33:49.200 you.
00:33:50.500 Is that
00:33:51.240 point of
00:33:52.060 view, whether
00:33:52.540 you agree
00:33:52.920 with it or
00:33:53.240 not, we're
00:33:53.660 not talking
00:33:54.180 about whether
00:33:54.600 you agree
00:33:55.000 with it,
00:33:55.980 is that the
00:33:56.580 kind of
00:33:57.020 tweet that
00:33:58.920 you would
00:33:59.200 expect to
00:33:59.740 see get
00:34:00.180 a thousand
00:34:00.600 retweets?
00:34:01.920 Am I wrong
00:34:02.620 about that?
00:34:03.040 So just
00:34:03.980 check my
00:34:05.140 viral tweet
00:34:07.460 assumption.
00:34:08.200 Now, remember,
00:34:08.860 threads always
00:34:09.500 get more
00:34:10.160 attention than
00:34:11.360 tweets.
00:34:12.340 So it's part
00:34:12.800 of a thread.
00:34:13.480 Factor that
00:34:13.960 in.
00:34:14.760 Trump stuff
00:34:15.540 always gets
00:34:16.040 more attention
00:34:16.660 than non-Trump
00:34:17.340 stuff.
00:34:18.000 Factor that
00:34:18.500 in.
00:34:19.500 I'm known
00:34:20.280 to say this
00:34:21.120 kind of
00:34:21.480 message.
00:34:22.400 So when
00:34:22.780 the tweeter
00:34:23.420 is talking
00:34:24.000 about their
00:34:24.480 topic of
00:34:25.680 expertise,
00:34:26.780 or something
00:34:27.440 they're known
00:34:27.900 for, they
00:34:29.780 get more
00:34:30.080 attention.
00:34:30.780 When Monica
00:34:31.440 Lewinsky
00:34:31.820 talks about
00:34:32.520 Bill Clinton,
00:34:33.640 she gets
00:34:33.960 more retweets
00:34:34.640 than if she
00:34:35.100 talks about
00:34:35.600 purses.
00:34:37.380 So the
00:34:38.180 things which
00:34:39.880 make a
00:34:40.340 tweet get
00:34:41.320 a thousand
00:34:41.720 retweets,
00:34:42.680 I feel are
00:34:43.680 all in this
00:34:44.500 tweet thread.
00:34:46.720 But it
00:34:47.360 didn't.
00:34:49.880 Now,
00:34:50.460 again,
00:34:51.400 since most
00:34:52.080 of the
00:34:52.340 theme of
00:34:52.780 what I've
00:34:53.080 talked about
00:34:53.460 today is
00:34:53.860 don't make
00:34:54.260 too much
00:34:54.660 from
00:34:54.880 anecdotal
00:34:55.520 evidence,
00:34:56.960 aren't I
00:34:57.580 judging whether
00:34:58.700 this got
00:34:59.240 shadow banned
00:35:00.080 based on
00:35:00.680 anecdotal
00:35:01.280 evidence?
00:35:02.820 Okay,
00:35:03.480 yes.
00:35:05.480 Yes,
00:35:05.940 I am.
00:35:06.440 That's why
00:35:06.780 I'm asking
00:35:07.340 instead of
00:35:07.900 stating.
00:35:08.980 I just
00:35:09.180 want to
00:35:09.420 get a
00:35:09.640 second opinion
00:35:10.180 on this.
00:35:10.560 Just see if
00:35:10.920 you feel
00:35:11.340 the same
00:35:11.700 way about
00:35:12.080 it.
00:35:12.660 We won't
00:35:13.140 be able
00:35:13.360 to confirm
00:35:13.800 anything.
00:35:20.740 Should put
00:35:21.360 down a
00:35:21.720 rhino black
00:35:22.480 list.
00:35:22.900 You know,
00:35:23.120 I don't
00:35:23.340 care about
00:35:23.680 that rhino
00:35:24.180 stuff.
00:35:25.600 The whole
00:35:26.460 Republican
00:35:27.520 and name
00:35:28.080 only thing,
00:35:29.440 I don't
00:35:30.020 have any
00:35:30.520 interest in
00:35:31.400 that as
00:35:32.160 a way
00:35:32.820 to frame
00:35:33.180 things.
00:35:34.860 Things are
00:35:35.340 either good
00:35:35.700 ideas or
00:35:36.220 they're not.
00:35:37.440 How you
00:35:37.980 decide to
00:35:38.960 label yourself
00:35:40.500 or other
00:35:42.060 people,
00:35:42.780 I don't
00:35:43.140 care.
00:35:44.080 I'm going
00:35:44.560 to look at
00:35:44.860 the topic.
00:35:45.940 If the
00:35:46.300 topic's good,
00:35:47.560 I might
00:35:47.940 support it.
00:35:49.340 But I
00:35:49.960 don't care if
00:35:50.480 somebody is
00:35:51.160 relabeling
00:35:51.820 their friends.
00:35:53.340 Oh,
00:35:53.680 you're a
00:35:54.060 rhino,
00:35:54.440 you're not
00:35:54.760 a rhino.
00:35:55.640 That does
00:35:56.240 nothing for
00:35:56.700 me.
00:36:00.580 All right.
00:36:03.700 Let's see
00:36:04.180 what else
00:36:04.460 we've got
00:36:04.720 going on
00:36:05.160 here.
00:36:06.080 Nothing.
00:36:07.760 Nothing at
00:36:08.440 all.
00:36:09.740 All right.
00:36:10.960 Yeah.
00:36:11.860 Let's go
00:36:12.420 Brandon.
00:36:15.960 All right.
00:36:16.580 Am I
00:36:16.840 missing any
00:36:17.260 big stories?
00:36:17.860 U.S.
00:36:22.100 intelligence
00:36:22.580 caught flat
00:36:23.320 footed again
00:36:23.900 by China?
00:36:24.640 In what
00:36:25.060 context did
00:36:26.460 the U.S.
00:36:26.940 intelligence
00:36:27.320 get flat
00:36:27.880 footed?
00:36:29.140 China
00:36:29.660 weapon?
00:36:31.080 Hypersonic
00:36:31.720 weapon?
00:36:33.620 Oh, is
00:36:34.360 there some
00:36:34.640 kind of
00:36:35.240 China has
00:36:36.620 a hypersonic
00:36:37.400 missile?
00:36:40.620 Right.
00:36:42.280 You know,
00:36:42.840 the one thing
00:36:43.320 that I worry
00:36:43.920 the least
00:36:44.480 about is
00:36:45.180 China launching
00:36:46.520 a preemptive
00:36:47.440 nuclear attack.
00:36:49.420 There's
00:36:49.740 probably
00:36:50.100 nothing that
00:36:50.960 I think
00:36:52.640 less about
00:36:53.360 than China
00:36:54.380 launching a
00:36:55.620 preemptive
00:36:56.160 attack.
00:36:56.880 Because China's
00:36:57.760 game is
00:36:58.160 wait.
00:36:59.300 They just
00:36:59.740 wait.
00:37:00.860 You know,
00:37:01.060 they can
00:37:01.260 wait a few
00:37:01.660 hundred years
00:37:02.120 and dominate
00:37:02.840 the world.
00:37:03.940 It looks
00:37:04.180 like it's
00:37:04.460 going that
00:37:04.820 way.
00:37:07.740 Never talk
00:37:08.560 about, oh,
00:37:09.460 yeah,
00:37:09.700 Katie Couric.
00:37:10.820 So there's
00:37:11.220 a story about
00:37:11.720 Katie Couric
00:37:12.460 who edited
00:37:14.060 a Ruth Bader
00:37:15.080 Ginsburg
00:37:15.460 interview.
00:37:16.200 to make
00:37:18.500 Ruth Bader
00:37:19.680 Ginsburg
00:37:20.020 look better.
00:37:22.920 What was
00:37:23.540 the topic?
00:37:26.000 Ginsburg
00:37:26.400 said, oh,
00:37:27.780 voter registration?
00:37:29.380 Was it
00:37:29.740 voter registration
00:37:30.580 that she was,
00:37:31.380 oh, kneeling?
00:37:32.760 Yeah.
00:37:33.200 Ruth Bader
00:37:33.840 Ginsburg said
00:37:34.600 something that
00:37:35.320 the kneelers
00:37:36.080 were kind of
00:37:37.340 spitting in the
00:37:37.900 face of the
00:37:38.380 country that,
00:37:39.020 you know,
00:37:39.360 made their
00:37:39.720 family successful.
00:37:41.680 And then
00:37:42.360 Katie Couric
00:37:42.860 decided that
00:37:43.480 that would
00:37:43.780 make Ruth Bader
00:37:44.540 Ginsburg look
00:37:45.260 bad, so
00:37:45.700 she took
00:37:46.100 it out.
00:37:48.780 Now, the
00:37:49.480 reason I
00:37:49.860 didn't comment
00:37:50.360 on that
00:37:50.800 story is
00:37:51.440 that the
00:37:51.780 whole story
00:37:52.360 is in the
00:37:52.820 story.
00:37:54.360 Usually I
00:37:54.940 like to talk
00:37:55.400 about things
00:37:55.880 where I
00:37:56.980 can add a
00:37:57.800 reframe of
00:37:58.800 it or a
00:37:59.520 different point
00:37:59.940 of view or
00:38:00.320 something.
00:38:01.220 But the
00:38:01.880 Katie Couric
00:38:02.360 story, it's
00:38:02.920 all there.
00:38:05.220 She edited
00:38:06.040 a story to
00:38:08.120 create what
00:38:09.400 you might
00:38:09.860 call fake
00:38:10.380 news, but
00:38:11.760 I mean, it
00:38:12.120 was misleading
00:38:12.720 because she
00:38:13.240 edited it.
00:38:14.640 And that's
00:38:17.840 the whole
00:38:18.060 story.
00:38:19.140 So if you
00:38:19.840 want to see
00:38:20.320 another example
00:38:21.040 of the media
00:38:21.700 being something
00:38:22.960 you can't
00:38:23.480 trust, well,
00:38:24.260 there's one
00:38:24.580 for you.
00:38:27.100 Is that
00:38:27.700 unusual?
00:38:28.640 I don't
00:38:28.940 know.
00:38:29.960 I can tell
00:38:30.680 you that I've
00:38:31.360 been edited
00:38:31.920 to look
00:38:32.720 smarter.
00:38:36.120 I told
00:38:36.800 you, I
00:38:37.380 think I
00:38:37.640 mentioned
00:38:37.900 that the
00:38:38.480 Playboy
00:38:39.720 interview was
00:38:41.500 one of the
00:38:41.920 most professional
00:38:42.840 best interviews
00:38:44.120 I've ever been
00:38:44.880 involved in.
00:38:45.560 They did a lot
00:38:46.060 of fact-checking,
00:38:46.880 et cetera.
00:38:47.560 Now, the
00:38:47.840 Playboy
00:38:48.200 interview, they
00:38:49.600 do edit it to
00:38:50.540 make you look
00:38:51.020 good.
00:38:53.160 But what I
00:38:53.840 mean by that
00:38:54.420 is if you
00:38:55.640 say a sentence
00:38:56.420 that's kind
00:38:57.020 of clunky,
00:38:58.420 they will
00:38:58.880 re-edit your
00:38:59.520 sentence as
00:39:00.360 if you spoke
00:39:01.040 it perfectly
00:39:01.620 the first time.
00:39:03.220 Now, I
00:39:03.680 don't mind
00:39:04.100 that because
00:39:05.080 what they're
00:39:05.480 doing is just
00:39:06.040 clarifying what
00:39:06.780 you really
00:39:07.140 said.
00:39:08.060 They're just
00:39:08.420 doing a better
00:39:08.880 job of saying
00:39:09.500 it than you
00:39:09.960 said it.
00:39:10.300 So if they
00:39:11.000 fix your
00:39:11.460 words and
00:39:12.120 get rid of
00:39:12.800 a verbal
00:39:14.200 tick, say
00:39:16.280 for example
00:39:16.800 that I
00:39:17.840 use the
00:39:18.260 word like.
00:39:19.820 So let's
00:39:20.460 say they
00:39:20.920 ask me a
00:39:21.280 question, I
00:39:21.660 go, well
00:39:22.440 like, that's
00:39:23.360 like this or
00:39:25.600 that.
00:39:26.460 They might
00:39:26.860 get rid of
00:39:27.360 the word
00:39:27.640 like because
00:39:28.940 it didn't
00:39:29.200 add anything
00:39:29.820 and it just
00:39:30.180 makes me look
00:39:30.700 like an
00:39:31.040 idiot when I
00:39:31.580 talk that
00:39:31.960 way.
00:39:33.080 But the
00:39:33.620 content would
00:39:34.160 be the
00:39:34.400 same.
00:39:35.020 So Playboy
00:39:36.020 played it
00:39:36.920 completely straight
00:39:37.700 on content,
00:39:39.240 but they
00:39:39.620 did make me
00:39:40.080 look smarter
00:39:40.600 because they
00:39:41.640 just took
00:39:41.980 out my
00:39:42.280 verbal
00:39:42.580 ticks.
00:39:45.240 North
00:39:45.720 Korean army
00:39:46.340 video, that's
00:39:47.940 just theater.
00:39:51.740 Yeah, the
00:39:52.220 whole, the
00:39:52.600 fact that
00:39:53.620 Buttigieg is
00:39:55.660 on a two
00:39:56.380 month, I
00:39:57.240 guess it's a
00:39:57.800 maternity leave,
00:39:59.480 at the time
00:40:00.220 that we have
00:40:00.860 the biggest
00:40:01.240 problem in
00:40:01.800 the country
00:40:02.160 with his
00:40:02.880 department,
00:40:04.100 that's really
00:40:05.280 a bad look.
00:40:06.060 on one
00:40:07.840 hand, I
00:40:09.320 certainly am
00:40:10.740 happy that
00:40:11.280 parents can
00:40:11.860 take maternity
00:40:12.780 leave and
00:40:13.240 stuff and
00:40:13.660 paternity
00:40:14.340 leave, but
00:40:15.680 parental leave,
00:40:17.700 let's call it,
00:40:18.220 let's be less
00:40:18.780 sexist, but I
00:40:22.260 feel like this
00:40:23.020 should be an
00:40:23.520 exception.
00:40:25.320 I feel like
00:40:26.260 if that were
00:40:26.980 me, I
00:40:29.200 don't know if
00:40:29.700 a Zoom
00:40:30.400 calls with the
00:40:31.160 office is going
00:40:31.840 to be good
00:40:32.180 enough, but
00:40:34.260 they do need to
00:40:34.920 bond with the
00:40:35.440 baby, that's
00:40:35.940 important too.
00:40:37.060 I wouldn't
00:40:37.500 minimize that.
00:40:43.160 The content
00:40:44.000 is the same
00:40:44.600 and they
00:40:44.840 made Scott
00:40:45.340 look smarter.
00:40:46.460 Yeah, I
00:40:47.480 suppose that
00:40:47.860 would be, that
00:40:48.600 is mildly
00:40:49.540 fake news, I
00:40:50.440 would agree
00:40:50.780 with you, it's
00:40:51.340 mildly fake
00:40:52.060 news.
00:40:53.980 You were
00:40:54.600 very impressed
00:40:55.460 by his
00:40:55.900 McKinsey
00:40:56.460 pedigree.
00:40:57.760 I'm very
00:40:58.320 impressed by
00:40:59.020 his analytical
00:40:59.920 pedigree,
00:41:01.600 meaning that
00:41:02.380 he has the
00:41:03.280 ability to
00:41:04.140 look at the
00:41:04.760 numbers.
00:41:04.920 and figure
00:41:05.660 stuff out.
00:41:07.100 So that
00:41:07.580 part I'm
00:41:08.480 still in
00:41:08.880 favor of.
00:41:09.400 I think
00:41:09.660 McKinsey
00:41:10.380 pedigree is
00:41:11.120 strong, but
00:41:12.320 I don't
00:41:13.140 believe I
00:41:13.640 ever told
00:41:14.080 you that
00:41:14.380 his McKinsey
00:41:15.080 pedigree makes
00:41:15.940 him a good
00:41:16.300 leader.
00:41:18.060 Because
00:41:18.500 McKinsey
00:41:18.920 isn't about
00:41:19.380 leadership,
00:41:20.360 they're more
00:41:21.220 about
00:41:21.600 nerdishly
00:41:22.840 looking at
00:41:23.240 numbers and
00:41:23.760 strategy.
00:41:28.740 He should
00:41:29.420 have at
00:41:29.680 least named
00:41:30.120 his backup.
00:41:30.760 Well, of
00:41:31.140 course he's
00:41:31.500 got a
00:41:31.740 backup.
00:41:32.440 I'm sure
00:41:32.780 somebody's in
00:41:33.320 charge.
00:41:33.720 VAERS.
00:41:36.860 The VAERS
00:41:37.460 database, I
00:41:39.060 think we've
00:41:39.400 talked about,
00:41:40.240 we can't
00:41:40.960 trust the
00:41:41.360 information in
00:41:42.060 it, and
00:41:42.240 that's the
00:41:42.500 whole story.
00:41:43.600 But certainly
00:41:44.460 there's enough
00:41:45.140 reporting in
00:41:46.080 there that
00:41:46.580 it's a red
00:41:47.060 flag.
00:41:48.460 It doesn't
00:41:48.860 mean that the
00:41:49.600 vaccines are
00:41:50.300 dangerous.
00:41:51.040 If you think
00:41:51.580 the VAERS
00:41:51.960 database is
00:41:52.580 telling you the
00:41:53.000 vaccines are
00:41:53.560 dangerous, you
00:41:54.640 need to do
00:41:55.240 more research
00:41:55.820 about what the
00:41:56.320 VAERS database
00:41:57.100 is and is
00:41:58.560 not.
00:41:59.460 It is
00:41:59.760 definitely not
00:42:00.740 telling you the
00:42:02.300 vaccinations are
00:42:03.160 dangerous.
00:42:04.280 It definitely
00:42:04.820 is raising a
00:42:06.420 big flag that
00:42:07.260 says maybe you
00:42:09.000 should look at
00:42:09.360 this a little
00:42:09.900 bit closer.
00:42:11.040 It's definitely
00:42:11.400 doing that, but
00:42:12.520 it's not
00:42:12.740 confirming
00:42:13.160 anything.
00:42:17.020 Is
00:42:17.540 California moving
00:42:18.340 forward with
00:42:19.000 nuclear reactors?
00:42:20.100 I doubt it only
00:42:21.000 because we're
00:42:21.520 incompetent
00:42:22.180 politically.
00:42:27.380 Who's the
00:42:28.040 baby's dad?
00:42:28.800 I don't care.
00:42:33.160 All right.
00:42:41.620 Just looking at
00:42:42.100 some of your
00:42:42.660 comments.
00:42:45.020 Scott, let me
00:42:45.680 record a drum
00:42:46.420 intro for your
00:42:47.280 show.
00:42:48.540 Okay.
00:42:49.640 Go ahead and
00:42:50.320 record one and
00:42:51.320 send it to me
00:42:52.980 somehow.
00:42:55.760 But I have to
00:42:56.440 play it myself
00:42:57.120 ultimately.
00:42:58.040 But if you have
00:42:58.880 an idea for it,
00:42:59.560 I'd love to
00:42:59.880 the glow face
00:43:03.960 generation?
00:43:04.620 What's the
00:43:04.960 glow face?
00:43:05.920 The people on
00:43:06.620 devices?
00:43:09.340 How is
00:43:09.980 Boo today?
00:43:10.600 She's happy and
00:43:11.960 affectionate today.
00:43:13.120 Oh, send it on
00:43:18.080 Instagram.
00:43:18.560 That's perfect.
00:43:19.820 By the way, if
00:43:20.440 you want to get a
00:43:21.060 message to me that
00:43:22.260 I'm more likely to
00:43:23.360 see, my Twitter
00:43:26.160 size is, I
00:43:27.180 don't know, 600
00:43:27.700 and some thousand
00:43:28.540 followers.
00:43:30.180 But my
00:43:32.600 Instagram, I
00:43:33.220 think, is
00:43:33.560 17,000.
00:43:35.860 Most of them are
00:43:36.620 fake followers, I
00:43:37.840 think.
00:43:38.000 I think at least
00:43:39.660 half of my
00:43:40.180 Instagram followers
00:43:41.080 are a slightly
00:43:42.920 overweight woman
00:43:43.880 with large
00:43:44.660 breasts who has
00:43:45.340 posted one
00:43:46.040 picture and
00:43:47.120 says, hey,
00:43:48.880 hey.
00:43:51.260 I've got
00:43:52.100 scads of
00:43:53.280 those.
00:43:53.980 I think at
00:43:54.360 least a
00:43:54.720 thousand of
00:43:55.380 my 17,000
00:43:56.440 followers are
00:43:57.840 random woman
00:43:58.920 with one
00:43:59.480 photo going,
00:44:00.700 hey, hey.
00:44:02.840 Do you get
00:44:03.760 those two?
00:44:06.040 Obviously, they're
00:44:06.980 not real people.
00:44:08.200 I assume they're
00:44:09.040 just guys.
00:44:11.080 Generation Z is
00:44:14.980 the glow face.
00:44:15.800 I think glow face
00:44:16.620 refers to your
00:44:17.620 phone lighting up
00:44:18.820 your face, right?
00:44:21.020 Could it mean
00:44:21.580 something else?
00:44:23.140 I think that's
00:44:23.700 all it means.
00:44:28.140 Are you on
00:44:28.860 Facebook?
00:44:29.640 Yeah, but I
00:44:30.460 don't read all my
00:44:31.300 messages on
00:44:31.880 Facebook.
00:44:33.680 And I don't
00:44:34.500 accept friends on
00:44:35.640 my personal
00:44:36.080 account.
00:44:38.300 How many of
00:44:39.040 you are watching
00:44:39.560 this on the
00:44:40.080 toilet right
00:44:40.600 now?
00:44:41.460 We're being
00:44:41.920 asked.
00:44:42.480 Anybody?
00:44:43.820 How many are
00:44:44.540 on the toilet
00:44:45.000 right now?
00:44:48.620 Anybody?
00:44:49.360 Like right
00:44:49.780 now?
00:44:50.900 Who's on the
00:44:51.420 toilet right
00:44:52.140 now?
00:44:58.540 Well, at least
00:44:59.220 some of you were
00:44:59.840 for part of it.
00:45:00.900 All right, I
00:45:01.300 think that's a
00:45:01.940 good way to end
00:45:02.700 this show.
00:45:04.160 Possibly the
00:45:05.180 best thing that
00:45:05.760 will ever happen
00:45:06.300 to you today.
00:45:06.880 some of us
00:45:12.640 get embarrassed
00:45:13.200 easier than
00:45:13.880 you.
00:45:18.580 And Rick
00:45:19.160 says, I'm on
00:45:19.760 the couch, but
00:45:20.360 I got to pee.
00:45:21.160 That counts.
00:45:22.500 That counts,
00:45:23.100 right?
00:45:29.940 Quasi-bully
00:45:30.760 Tiffany Dover,
00:45:31.820 I don't
00:45:32.300 know who
00:45:32.600 she is.
00:45:42.080 Wow, some
00:45:42.740 doctors out
00:45:43.360 there in
00:45:43.640 Canada say
00:45:44.240 they will
00:45:44.520 lose their
00:45:44.920 license if
00:45:45.480 they say
00:45:45.780 anything
00:45:46.020 negative about
00:45:46.680 vaccines.
00:45:47.560 Sheesh.
00:45:49.700 Sheesh.
00:45:53.640 Oh, good.
00:45:54.480 Scott Opelt.
00:45:56.280 I hope things
00:45:56.820 work out for
00:45:57.380 you.
00:45:57.540 I don't
00:45:58.540 all right.
00:46:04.860 Delta, yeah.
00:46:05.620 Delta decided
00:46:06.360 to not mandate
00:46:07.420 vaccination.
00:46:09.120 Smart move.
00:46:10.440 I think smart
00:46:11.760 move.
00:46:14.060 Well, thank
00:46:14.960 you.
00:46:17.880 Please try to
00:46:18.800 stop cussing
00:46:19.480 again.
00:46:21.380 You know,
00:46:21.840 it's a
00:46:22.160 continuous
00:46:22.520 struggle.
00:46:26.620 Sidebar with
00:46:27.440 Viva.
00:46:27.680 Oh, I
00:46:28.340 am going
00:46:28.620 to do
00:46:29.000 Viva
00:46:30.060 and Barnes.
00:46:30.700 I think
00:46:31.160 it's, is
00:46:31.880 it this
00:46:32.180 week?
00:46:33.300 So I
00:46:33.820 did agree
00:46:34.240 to do
00:46:34.660 Viva,
00:46:35.280 Viva
00:46:35.880 and Barnes.
00:46:41.100 You've
00:46:41.540 had better
00:46:41.940 tweets?
00:46:42.480 Yeah, I'm
00:46:42.740 sure I
00:46:42.960 have.
00:46:48.740 Okay.
00:46:50.600 So
00:46:51.040 so the
00:47:00.940 clanking
00:47:01.480 is, so
00:47:03.560 Sticks
00:47:03.940 and Hammer
00:47:04.300 clanks his
00:47:05.540 coffee with
00:47:06.360 his spoon.
00:47:07.480 Well, I
00:47:08.020 don't use
00:47:08.780 anything in
00:47:10.140 my coffee,
00:47:11.340 so I don't
00:47:11.860 need a spoon.
00:47:13.120 I take my
00:47:13.720 coffee,
00:47:15.420 black.
00:47:15.880 Oh, you're
00:47:22.560 saying that I
00:47:23.020 interact more
00:47:23.620 on Twitter
00:47:24.040 than on
00:47:24.500 locals?
00:47:25.320 Actually, that's
00:47:25.980 not true.
00:47:26.420 I interact
00:47:26.880 with more
00:47:27.340 people on
00:47:28.960 locals, some
00:47:30.100 more individual
00:47:30.780 comments I
00:47:31.460 interact with.
00:47:32.340 But on
00:47:32.680 Twitter, I just
00:47:33.260 get more
00:47:33.580 engagement because
00:47:34.400 there are more
00:47:34.700 people.
00:47:36.100 And I
00:47:36.340 probably tweet
00:47:36.920 more.
00:47:38.320 I probably
00:47:38.740 tweet, obviously,
00:47:39.560 I tweet more.
00:47:40.760 But I interact
00:47:42.500 with more
00:47:42.860 individuals on
00:47:43.980 locals, actually.
00:47:44.720 At least I
00:47:46.640 try to.
00:47:49.980 DeSantis and
00:47:50.680 Tulsi, how
00:47:51.180 come no one
00:47:51.660 mentions Tulsi?
00:47:53.240 Well, we're
00:47:55.280 not in a
00:47:56.020 political race
00:47:57.520 yet.
00:47:58.340 If she were,
00:47:59.020 we would.
00:48:03.400 All right,
00:48:04.000 that's all for
00:48:04.380 now.
00:48:04.720 I will talk
00:48:05.160 to you
00:48:05.560 tomorrow.
00:48:08.200 How do you
00:48:08.540 avoid coffee
00:48:09.200 stains on your
00:48:09.900 teeth?
00:48:12.080 Well,
00:48:14.120 full
00:48:14.420 disclosure,
00:48:15.700 my teeth
00:48:16.620 are not
00:48:17.800 real.
00:48:19.460 So these
00:48:19.820 are, what
00:48:22.620 do you call
00:48:22.960 it?
00:48:23.140 They're not
00:48:23.600 real.
00:48:26.700 They cover
00:48:27.900 my real
00:48:28.420 teeth.
00:48:29.560 Yeah, they're
00:48:30.340 porcelain.
00:48:31.180 They're veneers.
00:48:31.780 I'm sorry,
00:48:32.100 that's the word.
00:48:33.000 They're veneers.
00:48:33.760 So I don't
00:48:34.240 know if the
00:48:34.600 veneers have
00:48:35.240 the same
00:48:35.720 risk of
00:48:36.500 stain.
00:48:41.420 Yeah,
00:48:42.020 they're veneers.
00:48:42.500 So with the
00:48:43.300 veneer, your
00:48:43.860 real teeth are
00:48:44.440 underneath, but
00:48:45.140 they've been
00:48:45.480 ground down.
00:48:46.460 So you'll never
00:48:48.300 be able to use
00:48:48.820 your real teeth
00:48:49.460 because they're
00:48:50.200 ground down to
00:48:50.980 fit the veneer
00:48:51.580 over it.
00:48:54.780 And that's
00:48:55.620 your answer.
00:48:56.280 Bye for now.
