Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1708 Scott Adams： Today I Will Take Your Brain On A Mushroom Trip Without Any Mushrooms

00:00:00.000 Good morning everybody and what a special morning it is better than all the other mornings

00:00:08.060 and we've had a lot of mornings am I right let's say we take 365 we'll use that as our standard

00:00:16.420 multiply by 15 billion years and the number is anybody anybody I know a lot of you didn't take

00:00:25.220 higher level math so you can't do that math in your head like me I can't do that math in my head

00:00:31.140 either but if I could wouldn't that be impressive how about that that would be a show way better than

00:00:36.940 this one but how would you like to take it up a notch anybody this is the show of shows this is

00:00:44.980 the one that will blow your freaking minds this is the show that you will remember forever and to make

00:00:54.580 this uh really more of a spiritual uh journey let's uh enjoy a cup or a mug or a glass of tanker

00:01:02.060 chalice or cyan a cantine jug or flask a vessel of any kind fill it with the beverage that you believe

00:01:10.080 will take you to the next level I think for me that's coffee and join me now for the unparalleled

00:01:16.840 pleasure it's the dopamine hit of the day a little bit of oxytocin I wouldn't leave that out

00:01:22.900 and it's called the simultaneous sip and wow is it going to be good this time you ready you ready

00:01:28.800 you ready go

00:01:30.000 yeah that was as good as I promised

00:01:37.020 maybe a little better maybe a little better all right um the funniest news today

00:01:45.820 is uh there was a survey by the economist and you gov and they asked which media organizations

00:01:53.460 are trusted uh by democrats and also by republicans now we cannot trust any data I think we've all

00:02:04.300 learned that and and of the data we can trust the least uh polls surveys you know now I'm exaggerating

00:02:12.420 a little bit now the only thing I want to tell you is that I don't know if any of this data is correct

00:02:18.540 or this survey is valid but we're going to act like it is because that's going to be more fun

00:02:24.620 agreed if we act like it's real it's going to be way more fun so here's the uh the data that uh

00:02:33.320 it's totally real is there was a huge difference in the democrats and the republicans in terms of who

00:02:41.380 they trusted now not in the obvious way obviously the democrats were trusting cnn more than fox

00:02:49.640 obviously you know the republicans liked you know their bright barts you know more than their msnbcs right

00:02:57.740 so some of that's obvious and of course the survey showed that exactly like you'd expect but here's

00:03:03.880 the weird part republicans also don't trust their own side why and it's pretty striking so the so the

00:03:15.600 republicans definitely don't trust cnn but do you know who else they don't trust fox news news max

00:03:23.880 breitbart basically nothing they basically trust nothing who are the smart ones

00:03:31.780 let's just look at the last oh i don't know five years we'll just take the last five years keep it

00:03:40.760 correct who are the smart ones the one who didn't trust anything or the ones who trusted the news

00:03:47.740 like who got the better record for the last five years you know you i know because you know i'm

00:03:56.080 setting you up a little bit because i know the audience are you sure are you sure yeah it feels like

00:04:04.800 that to me right it feels like the people who are the most skeptical were also the most right

00:04:10.040 with some notable exceptions there there's some things that you were skeptical of that i still think

00:04:15.340 might be right you know who knows so we don't agree on all the skepticism but if you were just to

00:04:21.220 take a um you know a record with you know some hits and misses the people who doubted everything

00:04:28.640 came out pretty well am i wrong but has anybody done the following thing and could anybody is it even

00:04:38.460 possible has anybody ever taken let's let's just say an apples to apples comparison as best you could

00:04:45.320 in this case uh cnn to fox news you know let's call them peers roughly speaking that they would

00:04:52.400 be peers not in size fox news is bigger but in type roughly peers now has anybody ever made a list

00:05:01.300 of let's say again last five years because you know current matters more than anything else

00:05:07.460 the last five years the number of stories that each of the networks got wrong

00:05:12.960 now could you even make such a list now under the cnn list you'd have everything from russian

00:05:20.080 collusion to blah blah blah but wouldn't you also have some things on the fox news list

00:05:26.500 because the nature of the news business is everybody gets stuff wrong

00:05:31.640 right but i don't know of any case have you heard of a case where

00:05:37.380 fox news left legitimate news out of the news have they ever been accused of that i haven't heard of

00:05:45.260 that cnn gets accused of that so there are definitely some differences going on there but i would not

00:05:52.140 judge cnn nor fox news nor any other news by the fact that they got some stories wrong is that fair

00:06:01.220 can we all agree that getting some even major stories even getting major stories wrong you have

00:06:09.080 to kind of factor that into that's just the news business how can you possibly get them all right

00:06:13.780 all the time that's that's not a thing so if you're just being reasonable you know they're going to get

00:06:18.640 some big stories wrong no matter what kind of resources or intentions they put on it

00:06:24.260 but would the lists look similar you know if you made the list and you had some way to be objective

00:06:31.220 about it would there be you know three or four things under the fox news list three or four big

00:06:37.360 things under the cnn list would they look alike sort of the same and then you'd get down to the trivial

00:06:42.880 stuff and you know more were these the opinion people or the news people so it would get murky but

00:06:49.780 also unimportant after the first five or so and then you'd have to ask which ones are important

00:06:56.900 you know is the jesse smollett case important you know you could argue it is but you could also argue

00:07:07.540 it isn't so how do you so if one has some big stories that were wrong whichever side and the other had

00:07:14.320 maybe more stories that were wrong how could you ever compare them you know so i would just say that

00:07:20.580 you should have some humility about whether or not you can tell your own side is wrong which is

00:07:27.520 actually something that most of you are already at because the the big takeaway from this data which is

00:07:34.480 totally credible is that uh republicans are far more likely to be skeptical of all authority and

00:07:44.600 to me it looks like that's the right play more right than the other side i i think it's a mistake to

00:07:52.420 be an absolutist about it you know if you're just going to say everything's false well you know i'm not

00:07:58.760 going to take that path but you can't criticize its track record i don't think if you don't have data

00:08:05.880 to support it because anecdotally it would look like the doubters have the edge for the last several

00:08:13.780 years bill maher continues to be most valuable player you know i think i should start giving out the

00:08:22.520 most valuable player award for just americans who are being useful citizens and it would have nothing

00:08:31.160 to do with you know any of your past so it does it's not about anything you did up to this point but

00:08:36.940 how'd you do this week you know did you have a good week bill maher because he he has the ability

00:08:44.020 ability to call out his own side as well as what you might say is the other side i don't know if he

00:08:49.700 would say it that way but since he can call out people of all groups i think he's just doing a

00:08:57.240 service that's probably one of the most important things happening right now in terms of our

00:09:02.900 consciousness they're just a few people just a few who can kind of cross over and take the message

00:09:10.860 through the bubbles and so he's doing it again he was apparently on overtime on his show

00:09:16.620 uh he was asked a question and he said he was happy about uh elon musk taking over a stake in

00:09:24.060 twitter because he thought it'd be good for free speech and said something i've said a lot of you

00:09:29.920 have said that twitter is a private company uh meaning meaning that the government doesn't own them

00:09:36.960 um so since it's a non-government entity they're not really bound by free speech in the usual way

00:09:43.960 but as bill maher points out it's functionally the same as banning your speech if you get banned

00:09:51.420 on twitter it's like for all practical purposes like what's the point of having a constitution

00:09:56.840 if you can find you know workarounds of this magnitude it sort of makes a joke of the constitution

00:10:03.040 so um i'm completely on that page completely on that page and i would hope most people are on that

00:10:13.280 page but he's certainly helping people to get on that page so i give him most valuable player award

00:10:19.360 good citizen again forget about anything else he did before this week because that's not part of

00:10:26.240 the mvp award this week great citizen and he even gave some uh examples of how uh discussion about the

00:10:34.940 wuhan lab was banned on twitter being being the potential source of uh the pandemic and uh again

00:10:43.980 and and then bill maher also being useful in helping people think by not saying that the virus came from

00:10:52.800 the lab saying that it we we can't rule it out which is the only thing you can say at this point

00:10:59.640 so again that's like just such a useful opinion so i said i'm gonna correct myself i'm issuing a

00:11:08.020 correction correction it's a rare thing so make sure you pay attention when i tell you i was wrong about

00:11:15.440 something so the college freshman who humiliated brian uh stelter at uh whatever that event was it was a

00:11:24.800 disinformation conference and then the freshman pointed out cnn's you know list of disinformation

00:11:30.540 and sort of embarrassed brian stelter and having to answer to that which he just appointed the

00:11:35.900 question uh and i said at the time that it looked like this the question was written by a professional

00:11:42.760 meaning that the student would be more of a setup yeah the student was on tucker carlson last night

00:11:49.460 that's that's why i'm updating my opinion apparently the freshman writes for the his college newspaper

00:11:54.760 so that fact uh that fact alone um suggests i'm going to reverse my opinion so my opinion is that

00:12:05.500 a student couldn't have written it it was just too well written but he has now a record of working for

00:12:12.180 the school paper um and so i'll say oh okay that that does suggest he has some writing talent

00:12:19.140 and so i'm going to say yes you are hearing my dog uh screaming in some kind of urgency

00:12:27.280 and i might have to leave here to find out what that is if she does it again are you okay with that

00:12:34.840 we have enough dog lovers here right if i hear her bark again i'm gonna have to go

00:12:39.780 i think she's barking at the cat but you'd all understand if i take a minute to do that right

00:12:44.900 so uh let me know if you hear it again uh so here's another example of democrats believing

00:12:52.280 whatever they're told uh true or false republicans were very early to say it sounds to me like this

00:12:59.780 black lives matter organization might be more about making money than it is about helping black people

00:13:07.160 am i right that was pretty much the republican point of view from the start now let's make a careful

00:13:15.360 distinction because these things get taken out of context i don't think any i don't think any

00:13:21.720 republican was saying uh black lives don't matter i didn't hear that right so nobody was disagreeing

00:13:29.400 with sort of the general idea that like everybody should be treated as you know equal and in every

00:13:35.540 ways that matters to black lives matter so you know just the general concept that we should all be

00:13:41.340 treated uh you know as valuable human beings everybody was on that page but but now we know

00:13:48.420 that the organization itself just you know the small group of people whose names were attached to it

00:13:53.880 it's starting to look like a little bit of sketchy stuff happened and what's important about this story

00:13:59.940 is it's coming from the huffington post so the huffington post is running stories essentially calling out

00:14:06.520 black okay there's my dog again i gotta go take care of this dog thing i will be right back

00:14:13.580 i can't find it

00:14:34.380 so she either fixed her problem

00:14:40.060 if i hear it again i'm gonna have to go take care of that again

00:14:44.860 all right so there's another non-story in cnn about uh don jr's texts

00:14:54.760 to mark meadows on november 5th um so right after the uh the election

00:15:01.180 election and don jr was passing along some legal strategies for overturning the election

00:15:09.240 and um so cnn is treating this like it's like a huge scandal and there's something really important

00:15:20.260 that happened etc let me turn on my uh my security cam so i can see the dog if she she's outdoors

00:15:30.060 she may have gotten out oh damn it that's what happened

00:15:40.960 open gate

00:15:46.980 that would suggest that my dog is at the front door where she shouldn't be

00:15:54.880 so what what is the most reliable rule of technology

00:16:04.180 that if you have video cameras all around your house

00:16:08.240 and there's one that you need to look at it'll be the one that's not working

00:16:12.460 now the camera works i look at it every day multiple times

00:16:18.220 but because it's because it's important like i really really want to see this right now

00:16:25.620 because i can't go look and my dog might be out there because it got that got out of the gate

00:16:30.140 it's the one thing that doesn't it's not working all the other cameras are working

00:16:35.060 how does that happen i'll be back

00:16:39.260 okay

00:16:48.220 yeah one of the one of the things uh

00:16:58.920 when i designed my house

00:17:03.200 i put in all kinds of uh really cool auto uh automation

00:17:08.940 none of it ever works

00:17:12.260 almost nothing that's automated in this house

00:17:16.180 works when it needs to

00:17:18.400 it all works sometimes

00:17:19.840 all right

00:17:22.360 um so i've got somebody uh

00:17:24.880 taking care of the dog thing

00:17:26.440 that's

00:17:27.680 should take care of itself

00:17:30.020 um so the cnn story is hilarious

00:17:32.360 because don jr is being let's say

00:17:36.440 attacked by cnn

00:17:39.060 for

00:17:40.980 doing the most normal thing that anybody ever did

00:17:44.420 so this is what don jr is accused of

00:17:48.020 someone sent around some suggestions

00:17:52.080 for how to legally

00:17:53.860 pause the process

00:17:56.580 i guess long enough to check things out

00:17:59.260 or

00:18:00.360 potential ways to have alternate

00:18:02.940 uh electorates or something like that

00:18:05.400 now

00:18:06.500 given that the list was

00:18:10.000 by design

00:18:11.160 things that should be legal

00:18:13.280 or could you know maybe tested

00:18:15.180 maybe they wouldn't stand the legal process

00:18:17.480 but they were

00:18:18.920 they had a legal theory behind them

00:18:20.620 now

00:18:22.380 is it illegal to send around somebody else's ideas

00:18:26.280 that are labeled as legal things to consider

00:18:29.800 legal things to consider

00:18:33.100 and then

00:18:34.260 they discard them

00:18:35.760 and don't do them

00:18:36.820 or i don't think they did

00:18:38.460 maybe they did

00:18:39.620 i can't remember

00:18:40.360 so

00:18:41.580 what

00:18:44.440 why does don jr always get in trouble

00:18:47.320 for doing uh

00:18:48.920 what all business people do

00:18:50.640 which is

00:18:52.300 remember he got in trouble

00:18:53.680 for taking a meeting with the russian

00:18:55.280 because she might have some information about

00:18:58.400 hillary clinton

00:18:59.180 and my argument was always

00:19:01.780 that's what anybody would do

00:19:04.540 anybody who had any experience in

00:19:07.420 business at all

00:19:08.820 the first thing you'd do

00:19:10.720 because it was just downstairs

00:19:12.180 the entire effort involved in going to the meeting

00:19:15.380 was taking the elevator in his own building

00:19:17.280 it was in his own building

00:19:18.920 there was somebody he knew

00:19:20.320 like a personal connection

00:19:22.640 so

00:19:23.980 who wouldn't take that meeting

00:19:25.460 because it

00:19:26.680 sounded like it could be something good

00:19:28.720 if it turned out that it was

00:19:30.680 you know

00:19:31.040 that the information came from a russian spy

00:19:33.880 then

00:19:35.060 maybe you get the fbi involved

00:19:37.500 but you're not going to call the fbi

00:19:40.000 on something that's almost certainly going to be bullshit

00:19:42.360 who does that

00:19:44.260 i wouldn't

00:19:45.880 would you

00:19:46.580 if you were almost sure

00:19:48.900 that it was really just

00:19:50.020 a meeting downstairs

00:19:51.280 and somebody knew

00:19:52.320 and

00:19:52.640 you know

00:19:53.380 you're just sort of humoring them a little bit

00:19:55.020 but you know

00:19:55.540 maybe

00:19:55.820 maybe there could be something

00:19:57.740 would you call the fbi

00:19:59.340 ahead of time

00:20:00.240 or would you find out what the information was

00:20:02.900 and

00:20:03.900 if it sounded sketchy

00:20:05.300 then call the fbi

00:20:07.040 right

00:20:08.480 so

00:20:12.940 every time

00:20:13.540 don jr

00:20:14.100 does exactly

00:20:14.880 what every smart person does

00:20:16.520 in every business setting

00:20:17.760 everywhere

00:20:18.260 all the time

00:20:19.320 on every topic

00:20:20.240 CNN can make it a scandal

00:20:23.140 so the most obvious thing

00:20:25.720 anybody does

00:20:26.420 on any topic

00:20:27.260 is take some ideas

00:20:28.620 that somebody has

00:20:29.400 and spread them

00:20:29.940 and you know

00:20:30.500 and pass them around

00:20:32.340 and then people discard the ones

00:20:34.580 that are clearly problematic

00:20:36.120 and then they maybe try one

00:20:38.460 that's the best of the bunch

00:20:39.760 like that

00:20:41.360 where's the problem

00:20:44.700 exactly

00:20:45.580 you know

00:20:46.660 it's not illegal to have

00:20:48.120 bad ideas

00:20:49.520 that you discard

00:20:50.840 is it

00:20:52.260 they're treating them

00:20:53.720 like they were bad ideas

00:20:54.920 that they accepted

00:20:55.720 but a bad idea

00:20:57.380 that you discard

00:20:58.180 is an example

00:20:59.080 of somebody doing

00:20:59.760 exactly

00:21:00.300 what everybody

00:21:01.260 should be doing

00:21:02.140 floating up

00:21:04.040 a bunch of ideas

00:21:05.000 and discarding

00:21:05.920 the bad ones

00:21:06.780 that's not a problem

00:21:09.280 that's a

00:21:09.900 that's a feature

00:21:10.580 all right

00:21:11.280 so CNN's

00:21:16.620 got more

00:21:17.340 reports on

00:21:18.640 and everybody does

00:21:20.720 I guess

00:21:21.040 about more civilian

00:21:21.980 attacks

00:21:22.560 and there's some

00:21:23.300 intercepted audio

00:21:25.040 of apparently

00:21:26.800 Russian military

00:21:27.660 talking about

00:21:28.660 killing the civilians

00:21:29.780 meaning that

00:21:31.260 they were doing it

00:21:31.900 intentionally

00:21:32.440 now

00:21:33.660 let us do

00:21:35.060 a little

00:21:35.580 check-in

00:21:36.400 with the skeptics

00:21:37.520 how many of you

00:21:39.220 would believe

00:21:39.920 a Russian language

00:21:42.020 audio

00:21:42.500 that the Ukrainians

00:21:44.980 have provided

00:21:46.180 so the source

00:21:47.100 is the Ukrainians

00:21:48.240 so the Ukrainians

00:21:49.780 have given you

00:21:50.300 an audio

00:21:51.480 that sounds like

00:21:52.880 Russian speaking

00:21:53.840 people

00:21:54.420 saying exactly

00:21:55.980 what

00:21:56.520 you'd expect

00:21:58.280 them to say

00:21:59.100 if you were

00:22:00.720 Ukraine

00:22:01.280 and you wanted

00:22:02.720 people to know

00:22:03.420 that the Russians

00:22:04.040 are doing

00:22:04.480 terrible war crimes

00:22:06.220 do you believe it

00:22:08.460 or don't believe it

00:22:10.020 of course

00:22:13.700 I said it

00:22:14.820 in a way

00:22:15.180 to set you up

00:22:15.920 not to believe it

00:22:16.660 right

00:22:16.880 but I did that

00:22:17.700 intentionally

00:22:18.160 a lot of you

00:22:19.220 don't believe it

00:22:20.020 I would say this

00:22:22.260 I would say

00:22:23.280 it's not

00:22:23.740 credible

00:22:24.400 but I'm

00:22:26.280 leaning toward

00:22:27.200 it maybe

00:22:27.720 being true

00:22:28.520 but you know

00:22:29.340 I wouldn't ask

00:22:29.980 you to believe it

00:22:30.740 yeah

00:22:32.340 see

00:22:32.960 here's the problem

00:22:34.060 the problem

00:22:35.600 is that the source

00:22:36.520 can't be trusted

00:22:37.360 at all

00:22:38.260 it is literally

00:22:39.700 the least

00:22:40.840 credible source

00:22:42.020 of all sources

00:22:43.720 the enemy

00:22:45.460 during a war

00:22:46.280 it's the least

00:22:47.860 credible source

00:22:48.720 an enemy

00:22:49.860 during the war

00:22:50.500 should be lying

00:22:51.200 as hard as they can

00:22:52.120 the only requirement

00:22:53.900 during war

00:22:55.020 that makes sense

00:22:56.660 is that your lies

00:22:58.180 are believable

00:22:58.840 or they have an impact

00:22:59.840 or they have some

00:23:00.640 military benefit

00:23:01.500 that's it

00:23:02.680 Ukraine has no

00:23:05.400 obligation to tell

00:23:06.340 the truth

00:23:06.860 do you agree

00:23:09.220 do you think

00:23:10.640 that Ukraine

00:23:11.420 under the current

00:23:12.580 situation

00:23:13.160 has some obligation

00:23:15.040 to the rest of the

00:23:15.860 world to tell the

00:23:16.520 truth

00:23:16.800 about what's going

00:23:18.140 on

00:23:18.400 I don't think so

00:23:19.200 because we're

00:23:21.560 adults

00:23:21.940 right

00:23:22.240 if we're

00:23:23.460 adults

00:23:23.920 and we see

00:23:24.620 that they're

00:23:24.980 in a war

00:23:25.580 we should not

00:23:28.540 believe anything

00:23:29.140 that either side

00:23:29.840 says

00:23:30.180 I certainly

00:23:31.420 don't believe

00:23:31.880 the Russian

00:23:32.300 version

00:23:32.700 that would be

00:23:33.820 ridiculous

00:23:34.260 but

00:23:35.300 skepticism

00:23:37.260 is warranted

00:23:37.940 now I do think

00:23:39.160 that it would be

00:23:40.420 going too far

00:23:41.180 to say

00:23:41.620 it's false

00:23:42.400 it would not

00:23:44.100 be going too far

00:23:44.900 to say

00:23:45.320 you don't know

00:23:46.240 one way or the

00:23:46.840 other

00:23:47.020 because the

00:23:47.560 source

00:23:47.920 has no

00:23:48.960 credibility

00:23:49.440 but

00:23:51.320 no matter

00:23:52.800 whether this

00:23:53.380 story is true

00:23:54.100 or not

00:23:54.520 can we agree

00:23:55.600 that atrocities

00:23:56.540 pretty much

00:23:58.000 are guaranteed

00:23:58.580 pretty much

00:24:00.200 because it's a

00:24:00.780 war

00:24:01.020 of course

00:24:02.180 there are

00:24:02.480 atrocities

00:24:03.000 of course

00:24:03.640 civilians

00:24:04.100 are being

00:24:05.120 killed

00:24:05.440 of course

00:24:06.280 they're not

00:24:06.620 being so

00:24:07.140 careful

00:24:07.500 of course

00:24:08.600 you don't

00:24:09.300 need these

00:24:09.720 anecdotes

00:24:10.300 to tell you

00:24:10.780 what you

00:24:11.000 already know

00:24:11.500 that can't

00:24:12.520 be avoided

00:24:12.940 that has

00:24:13.600 to be true

00:24:14.140 it's a war

00:24:15.340 MIT has

00:24:17.800 decided to

00:24:19.180 reinstate

00:24:19.700 the SATs

00:24:20.840 and I guess

00:24:21.940 the ACTs

00:24:22.580 as part of

00:24:24.600 their requirements

00:24:25.780 for getting in

00:24:26.500 and

00:24:28.180 interestingly

00:24:29.700 I wasn't

00:24:30.360 aware of this

00:24:30.940 but apparently

00:24:31.660 there are

00:24:32.260 studies that

00:24:32.800 say

00:24:33.020 that the

00:24:33.900 SATs

00:24:34.580 the people

00:24:34.940 who are

00:24:35.300 not in

00:24:35.740 favor of

00:24:36.120 them

00:24:36.280 they say

00:24:37.380 that the

00:24:37.880 only thing

00:24:38.320 that they

00:24:38.700 correlate

00:24:39.080 really well

00:24:39.920 with

00:24:40.200 is the

00:24:40.620 income

00:24:41.020 of the

00:24:41.260 person

00:24:41.480 who took

00:24:41.800 it

00:24:41.980 that they

00:24:43.120 don't

00:24:43.440 correlate

00:24:43.940 so well

00:24:44.820 with

00:24:45.260 I guess

00:24:46.180 future

00:24:46.900 success

00:24:47.580 and that

00:24:48.540 the thing

00:24:48.880 that does

00:24:49.260 correlate

00:24:49.600 well

00:24:49.960 is the

00:24:50.460 grades

00:24:50.800 you got

00:24:51.100 in high

00:24:51.420 school

00:24:51.640 I guess

00:24:52.060 so if

00:24:52.780 you got

00:24:53.000 good grades

00:24:53.520 in high

00:24:53.840 school

00:24:54.180 you probably

00:24:55.220 get good

00:24:55.640 grades

00:24:55.920 in college

00:24:56.420 it's fairly

00:24:57.060 predicted

00:24:57.500 but the

00:24:58.920 SATs

00:24:59.540 are not

00:25:00.040 but MIT

00:25:02.120 must disagree

00:25:03.060 or they just

00:25:03.740 like a brand

00:25:04.440 that says

00:25:04.840 you have to

00:25:05.200 be this

00:25:05.500 smart

00:25:05.740 to get in

00:25:06.220 so one

00:25:07.540 of those

00:25:07.740 two things

00:25:08.220 and what

00:25:09.900 do you

00:25:10.080 think

00:25:10.360 does it

00:25:11.000 make sense

00:25:11.520 to say

00:25:11.900 that the

00:25:12.440 the SAT

00:25:13.200 scores

00:25:13.840 correlate

00:25:15.060 with family

00:25:15.820 income

00:25:16.420 more than

00:25:17.400 future success

00:25:22.320 I'm not

00:25:25.560 sure I'm

00:25:26.440 buying that

00:25:27.020 I feel like

00:25:28.560 all of the

00:25:28.980 variables are

00:25:29.640 too bi-directional

00:25:31.240 and confounding

00:25:33.340 and stuff

00:25:33.940 I just don't

00:25:35.120 know that you

00:25:35.560 can suss

00:25:36.220 that out

00:25:36.800 if I had

00:25:38.920 a choice

00:25:39.340 of hiring

00:25:40.060 somebody

00:25:40.540 who did

00:25:41.320 well on

00:25:41.740 the SATs

00:25:42.520 versus

00:25:42.800 someone who

00:25:43.320 did not

00:25:43.920 I think

00:25:45.520 I'd take

00:25:45.900 the one

00:25:46.260 who did

00:25:46.740 now if

00:25:49.880 I had

00:25:50.200 both

00:25:50.440 if I had

00:25:50.940 their school

00:25:51.540 performance

00:25:52.360 and the

00:25:53.860 school performance

00:25:54.620 was opposite

00:25:55.440 of the SATs

00:25:56.480 which seems

00:25:57.600 kind of rare

00:25:58.300 to me

00:25:58.820 but maybe

00:25:59.860 I think

00:26:01.680 I might

00:26:02.060 weight the

00:26:02.700 school performance

00:26:03.520 higher

00:26:03.820 because you

00:26:04.180 can imagine

00:26:04.620 they had a

00:26:04.980 bad day

00:26:05.380 in the

00:26:05.620 SATs

00:26:06.160 or something

00:26:06.560 but

00:26:07.780 I don't

00:26:09.140 know

00:26:09.480 SAT

00:26:10.260 comes

00:26:10.700 I think

00:26:12.580 I'd trust

00:26:13.000 the SATs

00:26:13.900 I do

00:26:16.140 think that

00:26:16.560 there might

00:26:16.860 be like

00:26:17.240 a 20%

00:26:18.500 you know

00:26:20.600 racism

00:26:21.260 baked in

00:26:22.140 and

00:26:22.540 anti-poor

00:26:23.880 person

00:26:24.300 in general

00:26:25.760 built into

00:26:27.600 the SATs

00:26:28.720 that seems

00:26:29.140 true

00:26:29.460 but

00:26:30.580 sort of

00:26:31.720 directionally

00:26:32.380 I think

00:26:32.660 they're

00:26:33.340 reasonably

00:26:34.000 accurate

00:26:35.000 I would

00:26:35.380 imagine

00:26:35.740 so

00:26:36.720 Ali

00:26:37.280 Alexander

00:26:37.840 the

00:26:38.180 founder

00:26:39.300 I guess

00:26:39.940 he was

00:26:40.220 the

00:26:40.540 founder

00:26:41.500 of the

00:26:41.960 protest

00:26:42.680 on January

00:26:43.160 6th

00:26:44.100 and he's

00:26:44.980 going to

00:26:45.300 talk to

00:26:46.060 the

00:26:46.640 I guess

00:26:47.840 the committee

00:26:48.320 that's looking

00:26:48.820 into it

00:26:49.320 oh

00:26:50.360 the federal

00:26:50.880 grand jury

00:26:51.580 subpoenaed him

00:26:52.680 and he's

00:26:53.120 going to

00:26:54.080 talk to them

00:26:54.700 and I thought

00:26:55.860 it was interesting

00:26:56.380 how he

00:26:57.240 responded

00:26:58.600 so here are

00:27:00.140 some things

00:27:00.760 so he

00:27:01.500 created the

00:27:03.340 Save America

00:27:03.960 march

00:27:04.380 on January

00:27:05.060 6th

00:27:06.000 he denied

00:27:06.780 talking with

00:27:07.360 the White

00:27:07.660 House

00:27:08.020 about security

00:27:09.960 groups or

00:27:10.660 coordinating

00:27:11.280 plans with

00:27:12.360 the Proud Boys

00:27:12.960 so he denied

00:27:14.440 that

00:27:14.760 he says

00:27:15.600 I don't believe

00:27:16.080 I have

00:27:16.380 information that

00:27:17.080 will be useful

00:27:17.620 to them

00:27:18.060 but I'm

00:27:18.480 cooperating as

00:27:19.340 best I can

00:27:20.060 now that's

00:27:20.900 kind of perfect

00:27:21.500 isn't it

00:27:22.920 like if you're

00:27:23.540 in this situation

00:27:24.280 this is just

00:27:25.740 a perfect statement

00:27:26.520 I don't believe

00:27:27.660 I have information

00:27:28.440 that will be

00:27:29.020 useful to them

00:27:29.740 but I'm

00:27:30.540 cooperating

00:27:31.040 as best

00:27:31.460 I can

00:27:31.820 that's

00:27:32.120 that's

00:27:32.660 nice

00:27:32.980 that's

00:27:33.560 a nice

00:27:33.860 matter of

00:27:34.480 fact

00:27:34.800 it doesn't

00:27:36.480 provoke

00:27:36.960 it just says

00:27:38.700 just matter of

00:27:40.180 fact

00:27:40.400 that's a really

00:27:40.840 good take

00:27:41.560 on it

00:27:42.400 they said

00:27:44.340 quote

00:27:44.920 I did

00:27:45.300 nothing wrong

00:27:46.000 and I am

00:27:46.620 not in

00:27:46.920 possession of

00:27:47.380 evidence that

00:27:47.900 anyone else

00:27:48.580 had plans

00:27:49.260 to commit

00:27:49.720 unlawful

00:27:50.360 acts

00:27:50.820 okay

00:27:52.120 a good

00:27:52.660 clean

00:27:53.140 denial

00:27:53.640 don't you

00:27:54.600 like a

00:27:55.000 specific

00:27:55.480 and clean

00:27:56.080 denial

00:27:56.500 and that

00:27:57.440 that seemed

00:27:58.020 like I

00:27:58.620 don't see

00:27:58.880 any weaseling

00:27:59.460 in that

00:27:59.900 right

00:28:01.160 now I'm

00:28:01.760 just talking

00:28:02.120 about the

00:28:02.440 messaging

00:28:02.800 I have

00:28:03.880 no idea

00:28:04.300 what's in

00:28:04.840 anybody's

00:28:05.240 head

00:28:05.580 or what

00:28:06.440 actually

00:28:06.780 happened

00:28:07.160 that day

00:28:07.540 but in

00:28:08.120 terms of

00:28:08.440 messaging

00:28:08.800 this is

00:28:09.640 really good

00:28:10.240 and then

00:28:11.520 then he

00:28:12.760 goes on

00:28:13.200 he goes

00:28:13.540 quote

00:28:13.820 I denounce

00:28:14.660 anyone who

00:28:15.360 planned to

00:28:15.880 subvert

00:28:16.440 my permitted

00:28:17.340 event

00:28:17.820 a nice

00:28:19.200 contrast

00:28:19.780 there

00:28:20.100 subvert

00:28:21.100 his

00:28:21.380 permitted

00:28:21.920 event

00:28:22.380 and the

00:28:23.300 other

00:28:23.500 permitted

00:28:24.040 events

00:28:24.560 of that

00:28:25.040 day

00:28:25.360 on capital

00:28:26.440 grounds

00:28:26.880 to stage

00:28:27.400 any

00:28:27.760 counterproductive

00:28:28.680 activities

00:28:29.400 again

00:28:30.720 that's

00:28:31.860 really

00:28:32.100 well done

00:28:32.680 just in

00:28:34.500 terms of

00:28:34.880 communication

00:28:35.640 in public

00:28:37.440 relations

00:28:37.980 very clean

00:28:39.060 nicely done

00:28:40.040 but then

00:28:42.440 the New York

00:28:42.820 Times says

00:28:43.340 it's an

00:28:43.720 indication

00:28:44.160 that the

00:28:44.620 inquiry

00:28:45.000 could reach

00:28:45.600 into the

00:28:46.140 Trump

00:28:46.940 administration

00:28:47.580 maybe

00:28:49.300 we'll keep

00:28:50.360 an eye on

00:28:50.760 that and

00:28:51.200 see what's

00:28:51.920 up

00:28:52.760 but

00:28:53.660 now I

00:28:55.220 promised you

00:28:55.860 in the

00:28:56.260 title

00:28:56.520 and how

00:28:57.040 many of

00:28:57.300 you stayed

00:28:57.620 around

00:28:57.860 for this

00:28:58.280 okay

00:28:59.960 we've got

00:29:01.160 we've got

00:29:03.200 a weekend

00:29:03.860 sized group

00:29:04.760 I'm going to

00:29:06.300 give you a

00:29:07.260 mushroom like

00:29:09.120 experience

00:29:09.680 but without

00:29:10.160 any mushrooms

00:29:10.800 now everybody

00:29:12.200 asks

00:29:12.620 what's it

00:29:13.300 like

00:29:13.640 when people

00:29:15.220 have not

00:29:15.760 done any

00:29:16.400 kind of

00:29:16.780 psychedelic

00:29:17.500 ask people

00:29:18.520 have

00:29:18.980 it's a

00:29:20.220 horrible job

00:29:21.060 trying to

00:29:21.480 explain it

00:29:22.200 because it

00:29:23.640 defies

00:29:24.340 explanation

00:29:24.960 if you

00:29:25.660 could explain

00:29:26.220 it in

00:29:26.540 words

00:29:27.000 you wouldn't

00:29:28.120 need to

00:29:28.440 do it

00:29:28.840 you could

00:29:30.040 just read

00:29:30.420 a book

00:29:30.700 about it

00:29:31.260 so it

00:29:32.200 is by

00:29:32.660 definition

00:29:33.320 impossible

00:29:34.720 to explain

00:29:35.540 and I'm

00:29:36.680 sure everybody

00:29:37.200 has something

00:29:37.960 that's a little

00:29:38.540 bit unique

00:29:39.260 right

00:29:39.980 that their

00:29:41.980 own experience

00:29:42.620 is a little

00:29:43.040 bit unique

00:29:43.560 so I'm

00:29:46.740 going to

00:29:46.880 give you

00:29:47.340 just a

00:29:48.140 little taste

00:29:49.480 of something

00:29:50.040 that will

00:29:50.880 get you

00:29:51.320 in sort

00:29:52.420 of that

00:29:52.680 mindset

00:29:53.260 a little

00:29:54.760 bit

00:29:55.060 I'm going

00:29:56.340 to bend

00:29:56.860 your

00:29:57.320 assumptions

00:29:58.180 about reality

00:29:59.260 just a

00:30:00.860 little

00:30:01.040 and I'm

00:30:02.180 going to

00:30:02.300 start with

00:30:02.700 a story

00:30:03.180 and the

00:30:04.920 most provocative

00:30:05.700 first sentence

00:30:06.640 of a book

00:30:07.320 that could

00:30:08.040 ever be

00:30:08.540 I once

00:30:11.020 hypnotized

00:30:11.920 a psychic

00:30:12.600 wouldn't

00:30:14.060 that be a

00:30:14.460 good opening

00:30:14.920 line for a

00:30:15.480 book

00:30:15.660 I once

00:30:16.920 hypnotized

00:30:17.920 a psychic

00:30:18.620 true story

00:30:19.660 now the

00:30:20.440 psychic

00:30:20.700 claimed to

00:30:21.460 be a

00:30:21.700 psychic

00:30:21.960 you know

00:30:22.860 that was

00:30:23.340 her claim

00:30:23.780 and the

00:30:25.020 reason I

00:30:25.380 did it

00:30:25.640 was because

00:30:26.220 psychics

00:30:27.040 are

00:30:27.340 notoriously

00:30:28.660 easy to

00:30:29.380 hypnotize

00:30:30.020 anecdotally

00:30:31.820 don't know

00:30:32.340 if there's

00:30:32.620 any science

00:30:33.100 to that

00:30:33.460 and I

00:30:34.200 was a

00:30:34.600 trained

00:30:34.840 hypnotist

00:30:35.360 and I

00:30:35.600 was

00:30:35.720 practicing

00:30:36.440 now one

00:30:37.320 of the

00:30:37.480 things that

00:30:37.840 she said

00:30:38.360 once she

00:30:39.780 was under

00:30:40.400 hypnosis

00:30:40.980 was she

00:30:42.520 explained to

00:30:43.060 me that

00:30:43.520 in the

00:30:44.860 psychic

00:30:45.200 realm

00:30:45.780 if there

00:30:46.820 is such

00:30:47.140 a thing

00:30:47.460 that the

00:30:48.720 arrow of

00:30:49.280 time was

00:30:50.120 not one

00:30:50.920 directional

00:30:51.420 in other

00:30:52.720 words she

00:30:53.140 could not

00:30:53.600 tell if

00:30:54.640 she was

00:30:54.980 predicting

00:30:55.360 something that

00:30:55.980 was going

00:30:56.380 to happen

00:30:56.880 or she

00:30:58.040 was telling

00:30:58.440 you something

00:30:58.860 that had

00:30:59.380 happened that

00:31:00.400 she couldn't

00:31:00.840 know about

00:31:01.340 that those

00:31:02.960 two things

00:31:03.540 were identical

00:31:04.140 she could

00:31:05.080 only see

00:31:05.880 them but

00:31:07.000 she couldn't

00:31:07.480 put a timer

00:31:08.040 on them

00:31:08.560 and I

00:31:10.120 thought isn't

00:31:10.740 that interesting

00:31:11.240 now I'm not

00:31:12.300 telling you I

00:31:12.720 believe in

00:31:13.140 psychics

00:31:13.660 I'm just

00:31:15.120 telling you

00:31:15.500 what the

00:31:15.760 experience

00:31:16.200 was and

00:31:17.340 you can

00:31:17.620 make your

00:31:17.960 own

00:31:18.280 conclusions

00:31:18.920 about this

00:31:19.500 what I'm

00:31:20.320 really doing

00:31:20.740 is just

00:31:21.100 priming you

00:31:21.760 I'm just

00:31:23.100 putting your

00:31:23.540 mind in a

00:31:24.100 certain

00:31:24.380 mindset

00:31:25.280 just opening

00:31:26.520 up the

00:31:27.140 let's say

00:31:28.320 your imagination

00:31:29.080 so only

00:31:30.940 thing I'm

00:31:31.320 going to

00:31:31.480 ask for

00:31:32.020 you is

00:31:33.600 that you

00:31:34.160 imagine

00:31:34.900 it I

00:31:36.120 won't ask

00:31:36.560 you to

00:31:36.840 change your

00:31:37.300 mind about

00:31:37.740 anything

00:31:38.060 we're just

00:31:39.160 going to do

00:31:39.520 some

00:31:39.780 imagining

00:31:40.400 and

00:31:41.740 one of

00:31:43.520 the things

00:31:43.840 that mushrooms

00:31:44.520 did for

00:31:46.120 me

00:31:46.400 in the

00:31:47.860 one

00:31:48.200 example

00:31:49.060 that I

00:31:49.400 took

00:31:49.580 them

00:31:49.760 and by

00:31:50.100 the way

00:31:50.280 I don't

00:31:50.620 recommend

00:31:51.040 any drug

00:31:52.460 for anybody

00:31:53.220 right

00:31:53.920 that's

00:31:54.580 for your

00:31:55.140 doctor

00:31:55.460 and you

00:31:55.720 to figure

00:31:56.020 out

00:31:56.280 but

00:31:58.640 one of

00:31:59.260 the things

00:31:59.500 you find

00:31:59.900 out

00:32:00.200 is that

00:32:00.760 some of

00:32:01.040 your most

00:32:01.380 basic

00:32:01.840 assumptions

00:32:02.320 about

00:32:02.820 reality

00:32:03.520 may be

00:32:05.420 not so

00:32:06.080 right

00:32:06.580 and

00:32:08.160 you might

00:32:08.960 not find

00:32:09.420 out a

00:32:09.820 better

00:32:10.100 assumption

00:32:10.780 about

00:32:11.080 reality

00:32:11.480 because

00:32:11.820 you took

00:32:12.180 a

00:32:12.480 psychedelic

00:32:13.180 but

00:32:14.380 you might

00:32:14.760 come out

00:32:15.140 of it

00:32:15.360 thinking

00:32:15.680 that the

00:32:16.240 impression

00:32:16.780 of reality

00:32:17.380 you used

00:32:18.000 to have

00:32:18.440 is not

00:32:19.780 so stable

00:32:20.420 and that

00:32:21.780 could actually

00:32:22.240 be useful

00:32:22.820 because it

00:32:23.600 means you're

00:32:23.960 not locked

00:32:24.440 into whatever

00:32:25.060 is bothering

00:32:25.600 you

00:32:25.860 if you're

00:32:27.000 locked into

00:32:27.860 a mental

00:32:28.260 loop

00:32:28.680 the mushrooms

00:32:30.520 can just

00:32:31.040 tell you

00:32:31.420 you don't

00:32:31.800 have to be

00:32:32.520 there

00:32:32.740 and maybe

00:32:33.960 that's

00:32:34.200 enough

00:32:34.500 and then

00:32:35.040 you just

00:32:35.280 lose the

00:32:36.020 loop

00:32:36.260 or lose

00:32:36.720 that frame

00:32:37.220 so

00:32:38.460 I want

00:32:39.440 to talk

00:32:39.700 about

00:32:40.000 a prophecy

00:32:40.820 versus

00:32:41.380 a plan

00:32:41.960 prophecy

00:32:44.060 means that

00:32:44.920 you see

00:32:45.500 something

00:32:45.820 in your

00:32:46.400 mind

00:32:46.800 in the

00:32:47.120 future

00:32:47.440 now if

00:32:49.160 you prophesize

00:32:49.980 it

00:32:50.200 that just

00:32:51.420 means you

00:32:51.740 see it

00:32:52.220 right

00:32:52.640 it doesn't

00:32:53.000 mean you're

00:32:53.280 doing anything

00:32:53.640 about it

00:32:54.460 now what

00:32:55.580 would be the

00:32:55.960 difference between

00:32:56.460 that and a

00:32:57.120 plan

00:32:57.460 well a plan

00:32:59.380 would be

00:33:00.460 something where

00:33:00.960 you say okay

00:33:01.440 I see where

00:33:02.420 I'm going

00:33:02.880 but I also

00:33:03.400 see that I'm

00:33:04.020 going to need

00:33:04.340 these steps

00:33:04.960 and without

00:33:06.120 the steps

00:33:06.780 you know that

00:33:08.200 the vision

00:33:09.220 isn't going to

00:33:09.720 happen

00:33:10.020 right

00:33:11.000 so you'd

00:33:11.940 say those

00:33:12.300 are very

00:33:12.600 different

00:33:12.980 right

00:33:13.340 there's a

00:33:14.260 big difference

00:33:14.980 between just

00:33:16.000 having a vision

00:33:16.820 of something

00:33:17.480 versus having a

00:33:18.780 plan to get

00:33:19.500 there

00:33:19.740 now a third

00:33:21.720 thing that's

00:33:22.240 different from

00:33:22.760 those two

00:33:23.280 is imagination

00:33:24.760 suppose you

00:33:26.620 just like to

00:33:27.260 imagine yourself

00:33:28.640 in the future

00:33:29.280 it's not a

00:33:30.300 plan

00:33:30.640 it's not a

00:33:31.400 prophecy

00:33:31.760 you just

00:33:33.020 like to spend

00:33:33.740 time in your

00:33:34.340 imagination

00:33:34.880 you know

00:33:35.380 someday

00:33:36.720 wouldn't that

00:33:37.600 be cool

00:33:38.120 well imagine

00:33:38.820 if this

00:33:39.220 happened

00:33:39.620 imagine if

00:33:41.000 it happened

00:33:41.420 now I'm

00:33:42.480 going to

00:33:42.660 tell you a

00:33:43.080 true story

00:33:43.620 about me

00:33:44.180 from a

00:33:46.900 very young

00:33:47.380 age

00:33:47.720 probably

00:33:48.340 teenager

00:33:49.460 or so

00:33:50.180 I like to

00:33:52.000 imagine

00:33:52.500 something in

00:33:53.180 particular

00:33:53.600 now there

00:33:54.220 were a number

00:33:54.580 of things I

00:33:55.020 like to

00:33:55.300 imagine

00:33:55.580 I like to

00:33:56.020 imagine

00:33:56.320 I could

00:33:56.760 fly

00:33:57.180 I'd imagine

00:33:58.440 myself flying

00:33:59.200 over the

00:33:59.600 town

00:33:59.960 etc

00:34:00.440 and I

00:34:01.920 like to

00:34:02.200 imagine

00:34:02.520 that when

00:34:03.580 I was young

00:34:04.240 I like to

00:34:04.800 imagine that

00:34:05.260 I would

00:34:05.460 become a

00:34:05.960 famous

00:34:06.340 cartoonist

00:34:07.200 and I

00:34:09.380 would just

00:34:09.760 imagine what

00:34:10.900 that would

00:34:11.160 be like

00:34:11.700 oh wouldn't

00:34:12.560 that be

00:34:12.840 great if

00:34:13.340 my job

00:34:14.080 was just

00:34:14.900 like drawing

00:34:15.420 cartoons

00:34:16.040 and what

00:34:17.160 if it really

00:34:17.880 worked out

00:34:18.540 I'd be

00:34:19.720 thinking

00:34:20.080 now I

00:34:22.400 can't say

00:34:22.800 that I had

00:34:23.100 a plan

00:34:23.560 exactly

00:34:24.080 and I'm

00:34:24.880 not

00:34:25.080 it felt

00:34:26.600 like a

00:34:26.980 prophecy

00:34:27.360 sometimes

00:34:28.040 but what

00:34:29.160 I was

00:34:29.420 actually doing

00:34:30.060 was just

00:34:30.500 imagining it

00:34:31.200 I was just

00:34:32.380 taking a

00:34:32.980 pleasant thing

00:34:33.660 to imagine

00:34:34.200 and then

00:34:35.000 imagining it

00:34:35.720 now this

00:34:37.020 is the

00:34:37.320 point

00:34:37.560 where I'm

00:34:38.240 going to

00:34:38.400 tell you

00:34:38.700 why I'm

00:34:39.000 really

00:34:39.200 talking

00:34:39.520 about

00:34:39.740 this

00:34:40.060 some

00:34:42.180 people

00:34:42.940 watching

00:34:43.340 this

00:34:43.720 not the

00:34:44.860 majority

00:34:45.280 but some

00:34:46.420 of you

00:34:46.740 let's say

00:34:47.500 out of a

00:34:47.860 hundred

00:34:48.200 any hundred

00:34:49.900 a few

00:34:50.920 of you

00:34:51.300 are going

00:34:52.200 to have

00:34:52.400 a profound

00:34:52.960 experience

00:34:53.720 not all

00:34:55.080 of you

00:34:55.360 but you

00:34:56.040 get to

00:34:56.340 play along

00:34:56.800 as well

00:34:57.200 and the

00:34:59.440 profound

00:34:59.800 experience

00:35:00.340 is that

00:35:01.980 you believe

00:35:02.740 that there's

00:35:03.260 this big

00:35:03.660 difference

00:35:04.160 between

00:35:05.340 imagining

00:35:06.380 something

00:35:06.900 having a

00:35:08.640 vision

00:35:08.960 or a

00:35:09.840 prophecy

00:35:10.240 whatever

00:35:10.620 word you

00:35:11.060 want to

00:35:11.260 put on

00:35:11.580 it

00:35:11.820 just

00:35:12.280 seeing

00:35:12.820 it

00:35:13.080 you

00:35:13.460 don't

00:35:13.620 know

00:35:13.760 why

00:35:14.000 well

00:35:14.260 it's

00:35:14.480 just

00:35:14.640 there

00:35:14.920 and

00:35:16.040 planning

00:35:16.440 to get

00:35:16.860 somewhere

00:35:17.160 also

00:35:21.140 from about

00:35:22.660 my teenage

00:35:23.220 years

00:35:23.780 I had

00:35:24.700 this

00:35:24.960 cool

00:35:25.580 imaginary

00:35:26.360 thought

00:35:26.960 that

00:35:28.200 someday

00:35:28.600 through

00:35:29.700 it didn't

00:35:30.400 matter

00:35:30.640 how the

00:35:31.060 sequence

00:35:31.460 of events

00:35:31.860 happened

00:35:32.220 I would

00:35:33.360 be asked

00:35:33.840 to visit

00:35:34.540 the

00:35:34.900 president

00:35:35.380 of the

00:35:35.680 united

00:35:35.920 states

00:35:36.340 in the

00:35:36.740 oval

00:35:36.980 office

00:35:37.420 and he

00:35:38.680 would

00:35:38.820 ask

00:35:39.080 my

00:35:39.540 advice

00:35:39.900 on

00:35:40.100 something

00:35:40.420 and

00:35:42.660 there

00:35:43.840 wasn't

00:35:44.060 any

00:35:44.200 reason

00:35:44.520 for it

00:35:44.920 it was

00:35:45.160 just

00:35:45.340 like

00:35:45.540 a

00:35:45.800 pleasant

00:35:46.080 cool

00:35:46.460 thing

00:35:46.740 to

00:35:46.920 think

00:35:47.120 of

00:35:47.340 and so

00:35:48.460 I've

00:35:48.700 been

00:35:48.840 thinking

00:35:49.100 of that

00:35:49.380 since

00:35:49.620 I was

00:35:49.860 a

00:35:50.000 teenager

00:35:50.340 now

00:35:52.200 some

00:35:53.820 of you

00:35:54.060 know

00:35:54.220 that

00:35:54.400 happened

00:35:54.780 in

00:35:55.560 2018

00:35:56.080 I was

00:35:57.020 in the

00:35:57.440 oval

00:35:57.640 office

00:35:58.060 chatting

00:35:58.720 with

00:35:58.960 Trump

00:35:59.260 and

00:36:00.460 I told

00:36:01.300 you

00:36:01.460 he asked

00:36:01.740 my opinion

00:36:02.220 about who

00:36:02.760 he'd

00:36:03.020 end up

00:36:03.780 running

00:36:04.040 against

00:36:04.400 I said

00:36:04.800 Kamala

00:36:05.120 Harris

00:36:05.460 he said

00:36:06.640 Joe

00:36:06.960 Biden

00:36:07.320 was his

00:36:07.860 guess

00:36:08.180 he was

00:36:09.200 a better

00:36:09.460 guesser

00:36:09.860 than me

00:36:10.240 so that's

00:36:12.220 why I can

00:36:12.620 tell you

00:36:12.900 the story

00:36:13.340 I know

00:36:14.300 he wouldn't

00:36:14.720 mind

00:36:15.120 you know

00:36:16.460 that's the

00:36:17.040 one thing

00:36:17.360 I can tell

00:36:17.800 you

00:36:17.960 because he

00:36:18.540 wouldn't

00:36:18.760 mind

00:36:19.120 that I

00:36:19.800 told you

00:36:20.120 that he

00:36:20.420 knew years

00:36:20.940 in advance

00:36:21.360 what was

00:36:21.700 going to

00:36:21.900 happen

00:36:22.180 right

00:36:23.100 I mean

00:36:23.380 he called

00:36:23.720 it

00:36:23.960 so

00:36:24.680 that special

00:36:25.680 case

00:36:26.100 I think

00:36:26.480 I think

00:36:26.920 I could

00:36:27.200 tell you

00:36:27.500 what happened

00:36:27.880 so in

00:36:29.700 so in

00:36:31.060 truth

00:36:31.400 that actually

00:36:32.860 happened

00:36:33.180 now

00:36:34.100 did I do

00:36:35.760 anything

00:36:36.300 intentionally

00:36:38.420 to make

00:36:39.020 that happen

00:36:39.540 I don't

00:36:41.800 know

00:36:42.100 I do

00:36:43.260 know

00:36:43.480 that I

00:36:43.820 was always

00:36:44.160 interested in

00:36:44.720 politics

00:36:45.240 as a

00:36:46.140 hobby

00:36:46.400 I do

00:36:47.420 know

00:36:47.700 that I

00:36:48.300 was drawn

00:36:48.720 into this

00:36:49.200 live streaming

00:36:49.900 stuff

00:36:50.320 and I do

00:36:50.800 know

00:36:50.960 that I

00:36:51.200 started

00:36:51.520 tweeting

00:36:51.940 and I

00:36:52.960 do know

00:36:53.320 that when

00:36:53.700 Trump

00:36:54.240 came on

00:36:54.620 the scene

00:36:55.060 I thought

00:36:55.540 he was

00:36:55.720 more

00:36:55.920 interesting

00:36:56.340 than other

00:36:56.820 people

00:36:57.160 in the

00:36:57.560 persuasion

00:36:58.020 world

00:36:58.440 and it

00:36:59.260 fit with

00:36:59.660 what I

00:36:59.980 already

00:37:00.220 knew

00:37:00.540 and so

00:37:00.900 I wrote

00:37:01.220 about it

00:37:01.720 and one

00:37:03.080 thing led

00:37:03.480 to another

00:37:03.940 and there

00:37:05.200 I was

00:37:05.620 literally

00:37:06.940 in the

00:37:07.240 Oval

00:37:07.480 Office

00:37:07.900 it was

00:37:08.920 just the

00:37:09.260 damnedest

00:37:09.660 thing

00:37:09.880 now

00:37:10.700 the two

00:37:12.020 examples

00:37:12.660 I gave

00:37:13.080 you

00:37:13.320 aren't

00:37:13.960 even the

00:37:14.360 only ones

00:37:15.020 I mean

00:37:16.240 if they

00:37:16.480 were the

00:37:16.720 only ones

00:37:17.120 it would

00:37:17.300 be a

00:37:17.920 good enough

00:37:18.240 story

00:37:18.560 by itself

00:37:19.160 but

00:37:19.960 consistently

00:37:20.640 I find

00:37:21.900 that

00:37:22.220 things I

00:37:23.200 simply imagined

00:37:24.080 for fun

00:37:24.920 literally

00:37:26.300 just to

00:37:26.820 feel good

00:37:27.440 before I

00:37:28.680 go to

00:37:28.940 sleep

00:37:29.180 usually

00:37:29.500 it was

00:37:30.260 a trick

00:37:30.740 I would

00:37:31.000 do

00:37:31.240 trying to

00:37:31.800 fall asleep

00:37:32.420 instead of

00:37:33.640 thinking of

00:37:34.060 the past

00:37:34.660 and instead

00:37:35.780 of thinking of

00:37:36.360 the real

00:37:36.760 future

00:37:37.160 like my

00:37:37.760 to-do list

00:37:38.300 for tomorrow

00:37:38.880 I never

00:37:40.020 think about

00:37:40.400 the past

00:37:40.880 I never

00:37:41.220 think about

00:37:41.620 the to-do list

00:37:42.420 I imagine

00:37:43.700 something that

00:37:44.380 would just

00:37:44.720 really be cool

00:37:45.600 someday in the

00:37:46.380 future

00:37:46.660 and I don't

00:37:47.860 try to imagine

00:37:48.740 something tomorrow

00:37:49.660 because that's

00:37:51.360 too easy

00:37:51.700 to falsify

00:37:52.500 like your

00:37:53.440 brain won't

00:37:53.920 let you

00:37:54.200 imagine

00:37:54.580 something

00:37:54.940 that you

00:37:55.180 think

00:37:55.320 that's

00:37:55.560 not

00:37:55.680 going to

00:37:55.820 happen

00:37:56.000 tomorrow

00:37:56.480 but if

00:37:57.420 you say

00:37:57.640 you know

00:37:57.960 in years

00:37:58.440 from now

00:37:59.020 some years

00:38:00.100 from now

00:38:00.500 this cool

00:38:01.100 thing might

00:38:01.560 be happening

00:38:02.060 you can

00:38:03.160 embrace that

00:38:04.260 now here's

00:38:06.480 the tip

00:38:06.820 that's going

00:38:07.180 to change

00:38:07.460 some of

00:38:07.720 your lives

00:38:08.260 you cannot

00:38:08.940 stop thinking

00:38:09.960 about something

00:38:10.640 you don't

00:38:11.780 have the

00:38:12.100 power

00:38:12.400 brains

00:38:13.200 don't work

00:38:13.640 that way

00:38:13.980 you can't

00:38:15.080 say

00:38:15.320 stop thinking

00:38:16.420 about the

00:38:16.820 elephant

00:38:17.140 don't

00:38:18.440 no

00:38:18.620 don't think

00:38:19.100 of that

00:38:19.340 elephant

00:38:19.720 stop

00:38:20.700 thinking

00:38:21.200 about the

00:38:21.560 elephant

00:38:21.940 the more

00:38:22.960 you say

00:38:23.280 stop thinking

00:38:23.840 about the

00:38:24.160 elephant

00:38:24.420 the more

00:38:24.800 you think

00:38:25.100 about the

00:38:25.400 damn

00:38:25.600 elephant

00:38:25.920 you can't

00:38:26.940 stop thinking

00:38:27.480 about things

00:38:28.000 but what you

00:38:29.240 can do

00:38:29.720 is fill up

00:38:31.000 your shelf

00:38:31.420 space

00:38:31.860 you can fill

00:38:33.540 your mind

00:38:34.020 with something

00:38:34.500 pleasant

00:38:34.900 and then there's

00:38:36.160 just not as

00:38:36.760 much room

00:38:37.420 oh yeah

00:38:38.240 the bad

00:38:39.180 thing will get

00:38:39.680 in and it'll

00:38:40.620 keep chipping

00:38:41.100 away

00:38:41.460 it's going

00:38:42.160 to keep

00:38:42.400 opening the

00:38:42.960 door

00:38:43.260 it's going

00:38:43.920 to keep

00:38:44.160 trying to

00:38:44.600 pry up the

00:38:45.260 window

00:38:45.540 it's going

00:38:46.180 to be trying

00:38:46.520 to get in

00:38:46.940 from every

00:38:47.400 angle

00:38:47.800 but hold

00:38:48.980 it off

00:38:49.440 if you get

00:38:50.340 a strong

00:38:50.820 enough

00:38:51.180 positive

00:38:52.100 imaginary

00:38:53.400 this is the

00:38:54.120 key

00:38:54.360 imaginary

00:38:55.400 future

00:38:56.180 image

00:38:57.280 that's really

00:38:58.040 pleasant

00:38:58.520 you can live

00:38:59.740 in it

00:39:00.120 and keep

00:39:02.140 the cooties

00:39:02.700 out

00:39:03.020 you know

00:39:03.400 you can keep

00:39:03.880 the monsters

00:39:04.380 out

00:39:04.780 and the longer

00:39:05.940 you do it

00:39:06.640 the less power

00:39:08.200 the monsters

00:39:08.820 have

00:39:09.200 because here's

00:39:10.380 the most

00:39:10.720 important thing

00:39:11.480 you need to

00:39:11.900 know about

00:39:12.300 a brain

00:39:12.840 what it

00:39:14.900 thinks about

00:39:15.740 it thinks

00:39:17.020 matters

00:39:17.520 it doesn't

00:39:19.880 think about

00:39:20.400 the things

00:39:20.820 that matter

00:39:21.380 what it

00:39:22.780 thinks about

00:39:23.460 is what

00:39:25.060 matters

00:39:25.520 if you

00:39:26.860 understand

00:39:27.240 that

00:39:27.680 you understand

00:39:28.660 the most

00:39:28.940 basic thing

00:39:29.620 about the

00:39:30.000 brain

00:39:30.300 and how

00:39:30.680 to reprogram

00:39:31.340 it

00:39:31.620 that's how

00:39:32.900 a hypnotist

00:39:33.460 can reprogram

00:39:34.260 you

00:39:34.420 just the

00:39:34.860 basic

00:39:35.160 truth

00:39:35.620 whatever

00:39:36.520 I make

00:39:37.080 you think

00:39:37.580 about

00:39:37.920 is what

00:39:38.480 matters

00:39:38.880 if you

00:39:40.360 think

00:39:40.600 that

00:39:40.780 the

00:39:40.920 things

00:39:41.120 you

00:39:41.320 think

00:39:41.580 about

00:39:41.840 are

00:39:42.020 because

00:39:42.280 there

00:39:42.480 are

00:39:42.560 good

00:39:42.760 reasons

00:39:43.300 sometimes

00:39:44.940 I mean

00:39:45.300 if it's

00:39:45.560 a national

00:39:46.000 emergency

00:39:46.400 yeah

00:39:46.680 there's

00:39:46.920 a good

00:39:47.100 reason

00:39:47.360 but most

00:39:48.740 of the

00:39:49.020 stuff

00:39:49.260 you think

00:39:49.680 about

00:39:50.000 it's

00:39:51.020 because

00:39:51.220 you're

00:39:51.480 thinking

00:39:51.700 about

00:39:52.020 it

00:39:52.240 it's

00:39:52.980 not

00:39:53.260 because

00:39:53.540 it's

00:39:53.780 important

00:39:54.200 that's

00:39:55.440 the most

00:39:55.760 important

00:39:56.100 thing

00:39:56.380 so

00:39:56.920 simply

00:39:57.320 make

00:39:57.640 yourself

00:39:58.020 think

00:39:58.520 about

00:39:58.840 more

00:39:59.420 minutes

00:39:59.920 of

00:40:00.240 something

00:40:00.580 else

00:40:00.980 because

00:40:02.060 the more

00:40:02.420 minutes

00:40:02.880 you can

00:40:03.200 make yourself

00:40:03.700 think

00:40:04.000 about

00:40:04.300 something

00:40:04.860 else

00:40:05.320 the fewer

00:40:06.400 minutes

00:40:06.800 to that

00:40:07.180 other

00:40:07.340 thing

00:40:07.660 and it

00:40:07.940 just

00:40:08.100 starts

00:40:08.340 to

00:40:08.520 shrink

00:40:08.820 and you

00:40:09.860 can

00:40:09.960 just

00:40:10.120 shrink

00:40:10.360 it

00:40:10.540 shrink

00:40:10.920 it

00:40:11.040 shrink

00:40:11.280 it

00:40:11.400 and the

00:40:12.460 beauty

00:40:12.720 of this

00:40:13.120 is that

00:40:13.680 you can

00:40:13.920 take

00:40:14.140 control

00:40:14.580 over your

00:40:15.020 mind

00:40:15.400 and your

00:40:15.740 life

00:40:16.120 because

00:40:16.960 thinking

00:40:17.420 about

00:40:17.700 something

00:40:18.020 really

00:40:18.420 cool

00:40:18.800 that

00:40:19.000 might

00:40:19.240 happen

00:40:19.560 to you

00:40:19.800 in the

00:40:20.000 future

00:40:20.340 is

00:40:21.180 something

00:40:21.440 everybody

00:40:21.800 can

00:40:22.040 do

00:40:22.300 you

00:40:23.320 can

00:40:23.460 do

00:40:23.580 it

00:40:23.680 a lot

00:40:24.140 you

00:40:24.680 can

00:40:24.800 do

00:40:24.920 it

00:40:25.020 all

00:40:25.120 the

00:40:25.280 time

00:40:25.620 you

00:40:26.060 can

00:40:26.180 do

00:40:26.320 it

00:40:26.400 while

00:40:26.520 you're

00:40:26.680 stuck

00:40:26.900 in

00:40:27.060 line

00:40:27.260 you

00:40:27.420 can

00:40:27.520 do

00:40:27.620 it

00:40:27.700 while

00:40:37.180 imagine

00:40:37.400 them

00:40:37.700 remember

00:40:38.360 the

00:40:38.580 visual

00:40:38.960 part

00:40:39.260 of

00:40:39.340 your

00:40:39.460 brain

00:40:39.720 is

00:40:39.900 the

00:40:40.000 important

00:40:40.280 part

00:40:40.580 so

00:40:41.040 you've

00:40:41.220 got

00:40:41.340 to

00:40:41.460 imagine

00:40:41.760 it

00:40:41.980 in

00:40:42.280 vision

00:40:43.520 don't

00:40:44.360 imagine

00:40:44.700 it

00:40:44.860 in

00:40:44.900 words

00:40:45.180 don't

00:40:45.440 imagine

00:40:45.740 it

00:40:45.880 just

00:40:46.060 in

00:40:46.200 sound

00:40:46.540 you

00:40:46.780 could

00:40:46.940 as

00:40:47.140 smell

00:40:47.500 smells

00:40:48.320 good

00:40:48.580 imagine

00:40:48.980 a smell

00:40:49.360 that's

00:40:50.020 very

00:40:50.180 powerful

00:40:50.520 but

00:40:51.140 just

00:40:51.380 visualize

00:40:51.880 yourself

00:40:52.360 there

00:40:52.660 feel

00:40:52.980 the

00:40:53.140 people

00:40:53.420 feel

00:40:53.700 the

00:40:53.840 handshakes

00:40:54.320 feel

00:40:54.540 the

00:40:54.720 looks

00:40:55.020 feel

00:40:55.600 just

00:40:55.820 feel

00:40:56.100 yourself

00:40:56.460 in

00:40:56.620 that

00:40:56.780 future

00:40:57.100 and

00:40:57.700 that

00:40:57.880 becomes

00:40:58.380 the

00:40:58.540 thing

00:40:58.740 that's

00:40:58.940 important

00:40:59.320 and

00:41:00.420 everything

00:41:00.660 else

00:41:00.900 will

00:41:01.020 start

00:41:01.180 to

00:41:01.340 fade

00:41:01.620 now

00:41:02.920 if

00:41:03.040 you're

00:41:03.200 lucky

00:41:03.460 and

00:41:03.720 you

00:41:03.820 thought

00:41:04.000 of

00:41:04.100 something

00:41:04.380 that's

00:41:04.660 cool

00:41:05.260 and

00:41:06.040 maybe

00:41:06.280 possible

00:41:06.880 you

00:41:08.580 may

00:41:08.760 have

00:41:08.880 discovered

00:41:09.280 that

00:41:09.740 you

00:41:10.020 live

00:41:10.540 in

00:41:10.660 a

00:41:10.800 simulation

00:41:11.280 or

00:41:12.300 that

00:41:12.680 reality

00:41:13.720 doesn't

00:41:14.120 work

00:41:14.360 exactly

00:41:14.840 the way

00:41:15.140 you

00:41:15.260 thought

00:41:15.540 that

00:41:16.240 wouldn't

00:41:16.460 be

00:41:16.580 a

00:41:16.680 big

00:41:16.820 surprise

00:41:17.220 would

00:41:17.440 it

00:41:17.880 suppose

00:41:18.440 you

00:41:18.680 found

00:41:18.920 out

00:41:19.100 that

00:41:19.260 reality

00:41:19.740 wasn't

00:41:20.180 quite

00:41:20.480 wired

00:41:20.940 the way

00:41:21.320 you

00:41:21.480 thought

00:41:21.780 it's

00:41:23.040 still

00:41:23.200 mostly

00:41:23.560 intact

00:41:24.000 but

00:41:24.220 there's

00:41:24.440 something

00:41:24.780 about

00:41:25.060 it

00:41:25.160 you

00:41:25.240 didn't

00:41:25.420 know

00:41:25.620 that

00:41:25.800 wouldn't

00:41:26.000 be

00:41:26.140 surprising

00:41:26.540 would

00:41:26.880 it

00:41:27.060 we

00:41:28.240 find

00:41:28.500 out

00:41:28.640 surprising

00:41:29.040 things

00:41:29.420 about

00:41:29.660 the

00:41:29.900 nature

00:41:30.100 of

00:41:30.260 reality

00:41:30.540 fairly

00:41:30.920 often

00:41:31.240 so

00:41:32.800 here's

00:41:33.120 one

00:41:33.260 that's

00:41:33.440 going to

00:41:33.640 blow

00:41:33.860 your

00:41:34.080 mind

00:41:34.520 people

00:41:36.860 who

00:41:37.060 take

00:41:37.320 mushrooms

00:41:37.900 sometimes

00:41:39.760 not

00:41:40.700 every

00:41:40.940 person

00:41:41.300 but

00:41:42.400 this

00:41:42.700 is

00:41:42.840 the

00:41:42.980 sort

00:41:43.160 of

00:41:43.260 thing

00:41:43.420 you

00:41:43.560 might

00:41:43.820 understand

00:41:44.460 there's

00:41:47.500 no

00:41:47.660 difference

00:41:48.200 between

00:41:49.660 a

00:41:49.860 plan

00:41:50.320 a

00:41:52.580 prophecy

00:41:53.100 and

00:41:55.900 your

00:41:56.080 imagination

00:41:56.700 there's

00:41:58.560 no

00:41:58.720 difference

00:41:59.140 and

00:42:01.080 here's

00:42:01.320 why

00:42:01.600 if

00:42:02.620 you

00:42:02.780 imagine

00:42:03.180 something

00:42:03.620 long

00:42:03.940 enough

00:42:04.260 you

00:42:06.500 end

00:42:06.740 up

00:42:06.920 gravitating

00:42:07.640 toward

00:42:08.020 the

00:42:08.200 things

00:42:08.460 that

00:42:08.640 make

00:42:08.840 it

00:42:08.980 happen

00:42:09.340 and

00:42:10.260 it's

00:42:10.460 unconscious

00:42:11.080 you

00:42:12.900 can't

00:42:13.240 tell the

00:42:13.560 difference

00:42:13.860 between

00:42:14.320 imagining

00:42:14.980 it

00:42:15.300 and

00:42:16.460 having

00:42:16.740 a

00:42:16.880 plan

00:42:17.160 for

00:42:17.440 it

00:42:17.600 because

00:42:17.860 in

00:42:18.040 both

00:42:18.260 cases

00:42:18.600 you're

00:42:18.880 imagining

00:42:19.260 it

00:42:19.540 and

00:42:19.980 in

00:42:20.100 both

00:42:20.300 cases

00:42:20.700 a

00:42:21.020 bunch

00:42:21.200 of

00:42:21.340 steps

00:42:21.600 happen

00:42:21.940 and

00:42:22.120 it

00:42:22.260 happens

00:42:22.640 you

00:42:23.900 can't

00:42:24.260 tell

00:42:24.400 the

00:42:24.580 difference

00:42:25.020 between

00:42:26.000 having

00:42:26.480 a

00:42:26.680 prophecy

00:42:27.120 in

00:42:29.560 the

00:42:29.700 case

00:42:29.920 that

00:42:30.060 the

00:43:01.220 still

00:43:01.360 one

00:43:01.500 big

00:43:01.700 that

00:43:02.280 a

00:43:02.840 is

00:43:03.280 better

00:43:03.900 goal

00:43:04.260 and

00:43:05.680 this

00:43:06.320 is

00:43:06.460 the

00:43:06.600 point

00:43:06.760 where

00:43:06.920 you

00:43:07.000 say

00:43:07.200 but

00:43:09.660 for

00:43:09.840 losers

00:43:10.160 you

00:43:10.580 have

00:43:10.720 a

00:43:10.860 system

00:43:11.180 do

00:43:11.920 you

00:43:11.980 know

00:43:12.080 what

00:43:12.180 a

00:43:12.300 system

00:43:12.600 is

00:43:13.020 right

00:43:16.260 there

00:43:16.520 that's

00:43:17.900 the

00:43:18.020 system

00:43:18.360 every

00:43:19.360 day

00:43:19.740 fill

00:43:20.960 up

00:43:24.660 positive

00:43:25.340 imaginary

00:43:26.320 future

00:43:26.940 that's

00:43:27.640 far

00:43:27.940 enough

00:43:28.160 away

00:43:28.580 that

00:43:29.340 your

00:43:29.500 brain

00:43:29.760 isn't

00:43:30.020 going

00:43:30.160 to

00:43:30.240 say

00:43:30.380 that's

00:43:30.640 not

00:43:30.760 going

00:43:30.860 happen

00:43:31.060 tomorrow

00:43:31.460 well

00:43:32.700 you

00:43:33.260 years

00:43:33.480 from

00:43:33.620 now

00:43:33.840 three

00:43:34.700 years

00:43:34.960 from

00:43:35.120 now

00:43:36.160 who

00:43:36.840 knows

00:43:37.240 how

00:43:38.360 do

00:43:38.460 you

00:43:38.560 get

00:43:38.720 there

00:43:39.000 this

00:43:40.300 is

00:43:40.440 why

00:43:40.600 I

00:43:40.760 don't

00:43:40.920 say

00:43:41.140 have

00:43:41.440 a

00:43:41.700 goal

00:43:42.100 because

00:43:43.100 step

00:43:43.640 one

00:43:43.920 might

00:43:44.500 not

00:43:44.800 be

00:43:44.980 the

00:43:45.160 thing

00:43:45.500 and

00:43:45.700 maybe

00:43:45.900 the

00:43:46.100 goal

00:43:46.380 will

00:43:46.600 change

00:43:47.020 and

00:43:47.200 maybe

00:43:47.760 you're

00:43:47.940 imagining

00:43:48.320 more

00:43:48.660 than

00:43:48.820 one

00:43:49.000 thing

00:43:49.380 and

00:43:49.720 why

00:43:50.180 would

00:43:50.900 you

00:43:51.060 assume

00:43:51.240 that

00:43:51.400 one

00:43:51.660 of

00:43:51.780 the

00:43:51.880 things

00:43:52.080 you

00:43:52.220 imagine

00:43:55.160 more

00:43:55.320 like

00:43:55.500 a

00:43:55.620 system

00:43:55.920 it

00:43:56.200 allows

00:43:56.500 you

00:43:56.760 to

00:43:57.080 get

00:43:57.460 not

00:43:57.740 just

00:43:57.980 this

00:43:58.220 goal

00:43:58.540 but

00:43:59.040 it

00:43:59.180 might

00:43:59.340 turn

00:43:59.540 out

00:43:59.780 that

00:44:00.640 one

00:44:00.840 of

00:44:00.960 your

00:44:01.120 other

00:44:01.800 goals

00:44:02.180 or

00:44:02.560 imagined

00:44:03.380 realities

00:44:04.080 is

00:44:04.800 the

00:44:04.940 one

00:44:05.140 now

00:44:07.340 in

00:44:14.820 your

00:44:14.940 mind

00:44:15.200 blown

00:44:15.540 because

00:44:28.920 way

00:44:29.060 that's

00:44:29.340 not

00:44:29.540 only

00:44:44.680 the

00:44:44.800 more

00:44:44.960 often

00:44:45.340 you

00:44:45.520 imagine

00:44:45.880 it

00:44:46.120 and

00:44:46.560 especially

00:44:47.040 if

00:44:47.240 you

00:44:54.220 it

00:44:54.380 feels

00:44:54.840 like

00:44:55.340 magic

00:44:56.680 that's

00:44:58.480 the

00:45:02.800 you

00:45:02.940 used

00:45:03.140 affirmations

00:45:03.780 and

00:45:04.040 you

00:45:04.140 got

00:45:04.280 these

00:45:04.580 seemingly

00:45:05.580 amazing

00:45:06.120 results

00:45:06.620 like

00:45:07.200 how

00:45:07.340 does

00:45:07.500 that

00:45:07.680 work

00:45:08.100 like

00:45:09.140 what

00:45:09.580 in

00:45:09.700 the

00:45:09.820 world

00:45:10.200 would

00:45:11.380 writing

00:45:12.720 15

00:45:13.180 times

00:45:13.560 a

00:45:13.700 day

00:45:13.840 while

00:45:14.120 visualizing

00:45:14.760 it

00:45:14.940 how

00:45:15.560 in

00:45:15.740 the

00:45:15.840 world

00:45:16.080 could

00:45:16.320 that

00:45:16.820 an

00:45:17.200 actual

00:45:17.660 thing

00:45:18.080 happen

00:45:18.600 this

00:45:20.040 is

00:45:20.180 how

00:45:20.380 not

00:45:21.680 only

00:45:22.040 this

00:45:22.560 is

00:45:22.700 how

00:45:23.000 it

00:45:24.000 could

00:45:24.200 not

00:45:24.500 happen

00:45:24.900 the

00:45:26.500 mechanisms

00:45:27.360 I'm

00:45:27.700 explaining

00:45:28.440 you

00:45:28.980 can

00:45:29.140 see

00:45:29.360 for

00:45:29.640 yourself

00:45:30.120 I

00:45:30.620 think

00:45:30.940 with

00:45:31.140 no

00:45:31.320 argument

00:45:31.680 whatsoever

00:45:32.260 that

00:45:33.580 these

00:45:33.920 are

00:45:34.100 functionally

00:45:34.660 the

00:45:34.840 same

00:45:35.100 in

00:45:36.120 my

00:45:36.540 life

00:45:36.880 they

00:45:37.180 absolutely

00:45:37.800 have

00:45:38.100 acted

00:45:38.380 the

00:45:38.600 same

00:45:38.840 that

00:45:40.120 if

00:45:40.660 I

00:45:40.800 can

00:45:40.940 imagine

00:45:41.300 it

00:45:41.560 I'm

00:45:41.960 drifting

00:45:42.600 toward

00:45:42.920 it

00:45:43.120 and

00:45:43.980 if

00:45:44.120 I

00:45:44.260 don't

00:45:44.520 imagine

00:45:44.900 it

00:45:45.080 I

00:45:45.240 don't

00:45:45.480 drift

00:45:45.700 toward

00:45:45.920 it

00:45:46.160 and

00:45:47.320 it

00:45:47.460 just

00:45:47.640 works

00:45:47.900 every

00:45:48.200 time

00:45:48.520 all

00:45:48.760 the

00:45:48.900 time

00:45:49.160 on

00:45:49.340 every

00:45:49.540 topic

00:45:49.960 no
