00:00:00.000 Do-do, do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, la-da-da-da-da, la-pa-pa, la-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa.
00:00:14.940 Good morning, everybody.
00:00:17.320 And aren't you lucky?
00:00:20.620 Yeah.
00:00:21.440 You made it to the best thing that's ever going to happen to you.
00:00:24.320 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and every day is better than the one before, but not
00:00:28.660 as good as tomorrow.
00:00:29.960 Tomorrow's looking really good.
00:00:32.420 How would you like to take it up to levels
00:00:34.240 that humans have never experienced before?
00:00:37.480 You would.
00:00:38.440 And all you need to do that is a cup or mug or a glass,
00:00:40.760 a tank or chalice or stine, a canteen jug or flask,
00:00:43.540 a vessel of any kind.
00:00:45.680 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:48.480 I like coffee.
00:00:50.300 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure,
00:00:53.080 the dopamine hit of the day.
00:00:55.860 It's the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:58.500 You can feel it starting already, can't you?
00:01:00.900 It's called The Simultaneous Sip, and it's happening now.
00:01:03.340 Go.
00:01:09.260 Savor it.
00:01:10.980 Savor it.
00:01:12.780 Okay.
00:01:17.760 Well, so Dilbert is still going after ESG.
00:01:23.920 We've got another comic today.
00:01:25.540 So here, Dogbert is talking to just some character
00:01:30.660 who's a head of some business.
00:01:35.660 And the title of the comic is Dogbert's ESG Rating Service.
00:01:40.280 So Dogbert has become an independent rating service for ESG.
00:01:45.520 Those exist, by the way.
00:01:47.240 So if you're a big company,
00:01:48.820 you can pay somebody to go look at
00:01:51.500 how much you're polluting and discriminating,
00:01:54.140 and they'll give you a score.
00:01:56.380 And I thought,
00:01:57.160 what could be a better job for Dogbert
00:01:59.260 than something that's totally subjective?
00:02:04.280 So Dogbert is talking to some CEO who is unnamed.
00:02:08.640 And Dogbert says,
00:02:09.480 your core business involves giving digital lobotomies
00:02:12.380 to other people's children.
00:02:14.840 What business is it?
00:02:16.940 So Dogbert is talking to a CEO, you assume.
00:02:19.580 Your core business involves giving digital lobotomies
00:02:23.220 to other people's children.
00:02:25.540 Right.
00:02:26.860 TikTok.
00:02:29.260 Yeah, but it's not just TikTok, right?
00:02:31.820 It's social media.
00:02:35.200 But then Dogbert says,
00:02:36.700 but you don't pollute as much as you could,
00:02:39.280 and you did ask for my pronoun.
00:02:41.500 So I'm giving you the top ESG rating.
00:02:43.600 And the CEO is looking at it,
00:02:45.740 and he goes,
00:02:45.980 this feels right.
00:02:47.460 And Dogbert's wagging,
00:02:48.680 and he says,
00:02:49.040 I think we're making a difference.
00:02:51.660 Now,
00:02:52.400 this would be the third day
00:02:56.640 of a week of ESG mocking.
00:03:00.880 And I've noticed that the ESG people,
00:03:03.680 the people who care about it,
00:03:05.700 are starting to pick it up and tweet it.
00:03:08.900 Once I get a full week,
00:03:10.380 I'm going to put them all together
00:03:13.460 and publish it as,
00:03:15.040 you know,
00:03:15.280 larger content.
00:03:17.440 And then it's going to be hard,
00:03:19.440 it's going to be hard to avoid seeing it
00:03:21.700 if you're in the ESG business.
00:03:25.280 So,
00:03:26.140 doing that for you
00:03:26.940 because you asked me to kill ESG.
00:03:29.280 And I said I'd get it done
00:03:30.520 by the end of the year.
00:03:33.400 So,
00:03:34.160 so we're going to mock it out of existence
00:03:36.740 by the end of the year.
00:03:37.840 We'll see.
00:03:38.680 I don't think it'll be out of existence.
00:03:40.380 I don't mean that.
00:03:41.780 I just mean that it's
00:03:42.900 reputation will go from
00:03:45.140 growing and good to,
00:03:47.460 uh-oh,
00:03:48.940 that's really,
00:03:50.160 that's what you can accomplish.
00:03:51.920 Uh-oh,
00:03:52.900 maybe we shouldn't do this.
00:03:55.440 So look for the,
00:03:56.660 the negative articles on ESG
00:03:59.060 to start popping up.
00:04:01.740 Sometimes you have to go first.
00:04:04.400 So,
00:04:05.020 one of the things that Dilbert does
00:04:06.320 as a comic
00:04:06.940 is it goes first.
00:04:08.420 So I can kind of soften up the room.
00:04:11.560 And then the regular journalists
00:04:13.000 can say,
00:04:13.560 oh,
00:04:13.860 okay,
00:04:14.320 other people are mocking this.
00:04:15.780 I can mock it too.
00:04:17.600 You have to sort of wait
00:04:18.800 for somebody to mock it first
00:04:20.560 before the,
00:04:21.500 the timid people come in.
00:04:26.120 Actually,
00:04:26.740 Wall Street Journal today
00:04:27.660 has a,
00:04:28.180 somebody saying,
00:04:28.860 has a piece saying
00:04:29.540 ESG is useless and costly.
00:04:31.140 But you would,
00:04:32.440 you would expect that
00:04:33.380 in an opinion piece
00:04:34.800 in the Wall Street Journal.
00:04:36.780 All right,
00:04:37.440 I,
00:04:37.680 uh,
00:04:38.020 uh,
00:04:39.460 I complained online today
00:04:40.980 because there's an app called
00:04:43.100 YouTube TV,
00:04:45.020 which is different
00:04:45.980 from regular YouTube.
00:04:47.820 So YouTube TV
00:04:49.120 is an app
00:04:50.180 made by YouTube
00:04:50.900 where you can,
00:04:52.000 it's like a cable TV thing
00:04:53.620 except you just use
00:04:54.920 your internet.
00:04:55.360 And so you can see
00:04:56.980 all the regular channels
00:04:58.000 and all the cable channels
00:04:59.160 and it's,
00:05:00.620 and the,
00:05:00.980 the interface is spectacular,
00:05:02.900 by the way.
00:05:04.000 If you,
00:05:04.640 if you're going to watch
00:05:05.440 television,
00:05:07.900 the,
00:05:08.440 uh,
00:05:08.660 YouTube TV
00:05:09.540 has the best,
00:05:10.480 um,
00:05:11.640 best interface
00:05:12.400 you've ever seen.
00:05:13.320 It's just great.
00:05:14.860 But,
00:05:15.500 there's one little oddity
00:05:16.620 I discovered
00:05:17.280 that of all the channels
00:05:19.620 that you could watch,
00:05:21.160 there's one that consistently
00:05:23.180 doesn't work.
00:05:24.300 it glitches
00:05:25.660 or the sound
00:05:26.560 doesn't match the thing
00:05:27.900 or you can't fast forward it
00:05:29.360 or it,
00:05:30.220 or it defaults back
00:05:31.760 to the beginning.
00:05:33.460 A whole bunch
00:05:34.420 of different errors.
00:05:35.480 But there's only one channel.
00:05:37.540 What,
00:05:37.700 what do you think
00:05:38.200 is the one network
00:05:39.960 or channel
00:05:40.600 on all of the channels?
00:05:42.520 What,
00:05:42.720 what do you think
00:05:43.180 is the one that doesn't work?
00:05:45.340 No,
00:05:45.540 not mine.
00:05:46.320 No,
00:05:46.720 because I,
00:05:47.200 I,
00:05:47.540 I'm not on that app.
00:05:49.320 I'm on YouTube,
00:05:51.040 but I'm not on YouTube TV.
00:05:54.300 YouTube TV
00:05:55.360 is just TV.
00:05:57.520 Right,
00:05:57.700 that's just TV.
00:05:58.920 Fox News.
00:06:01.360 Fox News.
00:06:03.200 So I asked
00:06:04.080 other people
00:06:06.120 if they have
00:06:07.400 the same problem.
00:06:09.140 I did a little,
00:06:10.100 and then somebody said,
00:06:11.240 you should do a poll
00:06:11.880 on this.
00:06:12.580 And I said,
00:06:14.020 you're right,
00:06:14.660 I really should do
00:06:15.340 a poll on this.
00:06:17.380 Because YouTube TV
00:06:18.940 did respond to me
00:06:20.120 right away,
00:06:21.020 because I said
00:06:22.020 something on Twitter,
00:06:22.660 and they noticed
00:06:23.880 right away,
00:06:24.460 and they did
00:06:25.080 a real good job
00:06:25.740 of responding.
00:06:27.140 So A plus for
00:06:28.480 responding quickly.
00:06:30.920 And A plus for
00:06:32.080 interface.
00:06:33.600 It's really
00:06:34.420 a well-made product.
00:06:36.380 It really is.
00:06:38.040 But,
00:06:38.280 so whatever's happening
00:06:39.060 with the
00:06:39.800 Fox News channel,
00:06:42.500 we don't know.
00:06:45.200 So that's the
00:06:45.840 open question.
00:06:46.640 But I asked people
00:06:47.420 if they're having
00:06:48.180 a problem,
00:06:48.600 or is it just me?
00:06:49.340 Because YouTube TV
00:06:50.880 reached out and said,
00:06:52.420 maybe you should
00:06:54.320 reload the app.
00:06:56.840 Reload the app.
00:06:58.900 But,
00:06:59.620 it's the same
00:07:01.140 on my Apple TV
00:07:02.100 and my iPad
00:07:03.480 and my old iPhone
00:07:04.920 and my new iPhone
00:07:05.920 that I got this week.
00:07:07.520 Do you think the problem
00:07:08.440 is that reloading the app
00:07:09.700 is going to help
00:07:10.220 that one channel?
00:07:12.320 It's an app that has
00:07:13.360 just one channel
00:07:14.460 with a problem.
00:07:15.120 Just one.
00:07:15.640 And rebooting the app
00:07:17.720 is going to fix
00:07:18.340 just the one channel.
00:07:21.380 Do you think
00:07:22.020 there's any chance
00:07:22.920 that that's going to work?
00:07:25.880 No.
00:07:27.720 So instead,
00:07:28.620 I did a poll
00:07:29.260 and I said,
00:07:30.860 if you use
00:07:31.540 a YouTube TV app,
00:07:33.100 not regular YouTube,
00:07:34.560 make sure you're
00:07:35.360 clear on that,
00:07:36.360 there are different apps.
00:07:37.820 Does the Fox News channel
00:07:39.000 work for you
00:07:39.820 without glitching?
00:07:41.420 Now,
00:07:41.720 if you subtract out
00:07:42.600 the people who just
00:07:43.280 wanted to see the result,
00:07:44.560 which is most of them,
00:07:45.360 because most people
00:07:46.100 don't have this app,
00:07:47.860 it was 16% said,
00:07:50.680 yes, it works, fine.
00:07:52.380 And 12% says
00:07:53.800 it glitches often
00:07:54.920 and always.
00:07:55.420 But remember,
00:07:56.420 those percentages
00:07:57.740 are after you take out
00:07:58.820 the people who just
00:07:59.440 wanted to see the answer.
00:08:01.760 So the 12 and the 16,
00:08:03.120 if you were to treat them
00:08:04.060 as the only ones
00:08:05.520 that mattered,
00:08:06.180 because they're the ones
00:08:06.840 who have the app.
00:08:07.800 Everybody else
00:08:08.400 doesn't even have the app.
00:08:10.200 So if you just look
00:08:11.140 at them,
00:08:11.920 about 12 out of 16,
00:08:14.840 would be
00:08:15.880 three quarters.
00:08:18.520 There are three quarters
00:08:19.400 as many people
00:08:20.160 who can't watch
00:08:21.340 that channel.
00:08:25.800 I mean,
00:08:26.380 that suggests
00:08:26.980 that there is,
00:08:28.540 in fact.
00:08:31.340 Yeah,
00:08:31.760 I'm doing the math wrong,
00:08:32.700 but don't worry about it.
00:08:33.880 The point is,
00:08:34.740 don't worry about the math.
00:08:36.680 The point is
00:08:37.220 that 12 and 16
00:08:38.200 aren't that far apart,
00:08:39.860 meaning that there are
00:08:40.820 a whole bunch of people
00:08:41.640 watching that channel
00:08:42.480 who can't get
00:08:43.280 that one channel
00:08:44.480 to work.
00:08:45.880 Is that a coincidence?
00:08:48.460 Now,
00:08:48.920 I saw a comment
00:08:49.880 from somebody,
00:08:50.640 apparently on Reddit,
00:08:51.600 people had been talking
00:08:52.420 about this as well,
00:08:54.460 and on Reddit,
00:08:55.240 somebody said
00:08:55.900 that somebody
00:08:57.760 at YouTube TV,
00:08:58.940 now this is all
00:08:59.580 low credibility,
00:09:00.960 I don't know
00:09:01.220 if this is true,
00:09:02.500 somebody at YouTube TV
00:09:03.820 suggested it might be
00:09:04.940 the feed
00:09:05.560 coming from Fox News,
00:09:07.840 meaning that
00:09:08.560 they treat everything
00:09:09.440 the same,
00:09:10.020 but if they get
00:09:10.500 a bad feed,
00:09:11.920 what are you going
00:09:12.420 to do?
00:09:13.880 Do you believe that?
00:09:15.320 Do you believe that
00:09:16.140 Fox TV,
00:09:17.460 or Fox News,
00:09:19.260 who appear to be
00:09:20.500 among the most
00:09:21.480 technically capable
00:09:22.640 people around,
00:09:26.380 and yet,
00:09:27.000 and yet they're
00:09:27.860 the only channel,
00:09:29.620 all the other channels
00:09:30.660 can send a clean signal,
00:09:32.840 but it's just the only
00:09:33.600 one that can't.
00:09:35.320 Do you believe that?
00:09:36.380 Do you believe that?
00:09:39.440 Now, other people
00:09:40.840 said that there
00:09:41.480 are other apps,
00:09:42.860 like the Roku app,
00:09:44.400 where they have
00:09:44.900 the same problem,
00:09:46.760 where it seems
00:09:47.320 that Fox News
00:09:48.100 is a problem.
00:09:49.080 Now, if that's true,
00:09:51.340 that would actually
00:09:52.200 at least be suggestive
00:09:54.180 that the feed
00:09:54.860 has a problem,
00:09:56.240 but I don't think
00:09:57.260 you're seeing
00:09:57.620 the same problems
00:09:58.740 in each app.
00:10:01.060 I'll bet you
00:10:01.800 if you looked
00:10:02.280 at the Roku app
00:10:03.300 and the YouTube TV app
00:10:07.060 at the same time,
00:10:07.900 even if they both
00:10:09.800 glitch,
00:10:10.960 bet it's not
00:10:11.520 at the same time.
00:10:13.160 I'll bet it's not.
00:10:14.160 I'd put a big bet
00:10:14.980 on that.
00:10:16.080 Because if they glitch
00:10:17.020 at the same time,
00:10:18.060 then it's the feed.
00:10:19.880 You know,
00:10:20.120 you've eliminated
00:10:20.740 the other options.
00:10:22.220 I don't think so.
00:10:23.300 I think it's going
00:10:23.780 to be different mistakes
00:10:24.840 that are unique
00:10:26.580 to Fox News.
00:10:28.220 That's what I think.
00:10:28.920 Now,
00:10:31.140 where do we have the,
00:10:32.580 when do we use the,
00:10:33.880 let's say,
00:10:35.260 assumption of innocence
00:10:36.300 versus the assumption
00:10:38.420 of guilt?
00:10:39.300 Now, in the legal system,
00:10:40.820 because it's humans
00:10:42.120 and we want to do
00:10:43.360 the best we can
00:10:44.060 for them,
00:10:45.000 assumption of innocence
00:10:46.020 is the standard
00:10:47.160 and we all agree
00:10:48.340 with that.
00:10:49.600 But in this specific case,
00:10:51.900 so this is not really
00:10:52.780 about any individual,
00:10:54.660 it's about whether
00:10:55.460 a system is working
00:10:57.780 the way it should
00:10:58.480 in this American experience.
00:11:01.900 Should you assume
00:11:02.940 that if you see
00:11:03.720 something like I'm seeing,
00:11:05.900 is my assumption,
00:11:07.000 should my starting
00:11:07.680 assumption be innocence?
00:11:09.300 That it's just a bug?
00:11:10.820 What do you think?
00:11:11.980 Is it reasonable
00:11:12.960 to assume
00:11:13.720 that this is just
00:11:15.640 a coincidence?
00:11:17.740 Is it reasonable?
00:11:19.320 I don't think it's reasonable
00:11:20.620 to assume that anymore.
00:11:22.000 It's entirely possible
00:11:23.280 it's a coincidence.
00:11:25.460 Let me be as clear
00:11:27.560 as I can.
00:11:28.740 If I had to put
00:11:29.540 a bet down,
00:11:30.540 I don't even know
00:11:31.360 which way I'd bet.
00:11:32.940 I mean, it looks like
00:11:33.720 a coin flip to me.
00:11:35.040 It's definitely possible
00:11:36.200 that it's just a bug.
00:11:37.940 It's definitely possible.
00:11:41.000 I just don't think
00:11:42.180 that should be
00:11:42.660 your starting assumption.
00:11:44.680 Now, I was going to
00:11:45.840 not talk about it
00:11:46.700 in public
00:11:47.100 because I thought,
00:11:48.080 you know,
00:11:48.980 the odds are so big
00:11:50.400 that this is just a bug
00:11:51.880 that it would be
00:11:53.900 embarrassing
00:11:54.360 if they say,
00:11:55.240 yeah, the feed was bad
00:11:56.540 and then they prove it.
00:11:57.840 I'm like,
00:11:58.280 oh, okay,
00:11:59.200 I made a big deal
00:11:59.860 about this
00:12:00.380 and it was just a bug.
00:12:03.640 But I think
00:12:04.400 we're at a point
00:12:05.160 in history
00:12:05.800 where the institution
00:12:07.680 has to be assumed
00:12:08.640 guilty
00:12:09.100 until they can
00:12:10.960 demonstrate they're not.
00:12:12.840 What do you think?
00:12:14.220 Is it inappropriate
00:12:15.540 to say that
00:12:16.340 the institution,
00:12:17.440 whether it's
00:12:18.000 Google or YouTube
00:12:19.540 or the FBI
00:12:20.500 or the government
00:12:21.360 or Congress,
00:12:22.020 it doesn't matter
00:12:22.560 who it is,
00:12:23.220 the media,
00:12:23.980 Fox News,
00:12:24.900 any entity,
00:12:26.080 just any public
00:12:27.780 facing entity,
00:12:29.900 I don't think
00:12:31.220 you can assume
00:12:31.860 that they're innocent.
00:12:33.940 I think you have
00:12:34.800 to assume
00:12:35.180 they're guilty
00:12:35.680 if you see
00:12:36.580 anecdotal evidence
00:12:38.180 suggesting it.
00:12:40.760 That's what I think.
00:12:44.620 Plug my prints.
00:12:46.840 Okay, I will.
00:12:47.960 Did you know
00:12:48.420 you could go
00:12:48.840 to Dilbert.com
00:12:49.920 and get a legal
00:12:51.420 authorized copy
00:12:53.680 of any of my strips
00:12:54.760 if you want to use it
00:12:55.880 in business
00:12:56.420 or something else.
00:12:57.640 If you want to write
00:12:58.420 an article about it.
00:12:59.260 So the ESG strips
00:13:00.480 are perfect for that.
00:13:03.100 A lot of people
00:13:03.620 are probably writing
00:13:04.320 about that topic.
00:13:06.000 So whether you're
00:13:06.620 writing pro
00:13:07.260 or negative
00:13:07.940 on that topic,
00:13:08.760 you might want
00:13:09.360 to license those strips.
00:13:10.600 tips for an ESG
00:13:15.900 free state.
00:13:17.140 You mean
00:13:17.620 what should we do
00:13:18.780 to get rid of ESG?
00:13:20.860 Well, what we should do
00:13:22.160 is what we're doing.
00:13:24.140 We need to mock
00:13:25.220 it out of existence.
00:13:26.640 There's no other way,
00:13:27.620 really.
00:13:28.440 It has to be mocked.
00:13:29.460 All right.
00:13:31.680 So Mike Lindell,
00:13:32.880 the MyPillow guy,
00:13:35.180 who's now more of
00:13:36.240 a MySlippers guy
00:13:37.180 it seems like,
00:13:37.800 but he was going
00:13:40.140 through a drive-thru
00:13:41.000 and the FBI
00:13:42.240 surrounded him.
00:13:43.900 They pulled their cars up
00:13:45.220 and blocked his car.
00:13:46.720 Imagine this happening
00:13:47.640 to you.
00:13:49.060 This happened in America
00:13:50.500 that they wanted
00:13:52.680 to serve him
00:13:53.260 with a subpoena,
00:13:54.440 I guess,
00:13:54.800 or a warrant
00:13:55.440 and get his phone
00:13:56.240 and they waited
00:13:57.980 until he was in his car
00:13:59.320 and they somehow
00:14:01.240 followed him
00:14:01.960 to a fast food place
00:14:03.460 and while he's in line
00:14:04.400 they surround him
00:14:05.720 with their FBI cars
00:14:07.080 now he did say
00:14:09.420 that they were just
00:14:10.060 polite and professional
00:14:11.520 and they didn't have
00:14:12.420 any kind of attitude
00:14:13.200 or anything.
00:14:14.700 So I'm going to give a
00:14:15.700 I'll give a compliment
00:14:16.780 to the FBI agents
00:14:18.240 because Mike Lindell did.
00:14:21.420 So Mike Lindell said
00:14:22.800 they did a good job
00:14:24.460 and I'm going to pass it along.
00:14:25.700 So that's for the agents
00:14:27.100 themselves.
00:14:28.600 But was it ever okay
00:14:30.320 for them to even do that
00:14:31.460 in the first place?
00:14:33.280 I mean,
00:14:33.540 I'm sure they did it
00:14:34.340 on orders or something
00:14:35.460 but that feels like
00:14:38.040 a public humiliation
00:14:39.060 with no purpose.
00:14:40.720 It also feels like
00:14:41.940 intimidation.
00:14:43.860 You don't think
00:14:44.640 they could have called him?
00:14:47.960 You don't think
00:14:48.660 they could have called him
00:14:49.320 and said,
00:14:49.800 hey,
00:14:50.200 somebody's going to come down
00:14:51.900 at 10 a.m.
00:14:53.380 and we've got a warrant
00:14:54.960 we're going to ask
00:14:55.540 for your phone.
00:14:57.040 Could you answer the door,
00:14:58.820 make sure somebody
00:14:59.440 answers the door
00:15:00.060 and bring your phone
00:15:00.800 with you?
00:15:02.360 What was he going to do?
00:15:03.520 Leave the country?
00:15:04.080 Did they think
00:15:05.780 that Mike Lindell
00:15:06.480 was a flight risk?
00:15:08.580 What,
00:15:08.880 did they think
00:15:09.300 that he was going
00:15:09.700 to hide his phone?
00:15:11.440 And let me ask you this,
00:15:13.260 why do you need
00:15:14.380 access to the phone?
00:15:16.240 How much is on the phone
00:15:17.740 that's not on the iCloud?
00:15:21.520 I'm wondering
00:15:22.160 if you even need
00:15:22.960 phones anymore.
00:15:24.120 Don't you just need,
00:15:25.800 but wiping it
00:15:26.940 doesn't help anymore,
00:15:27.840 does it?
00:15:29.360 Does wiping help?
00:15:30.460 If you wiped
00:15:32.700 your phone clean,
00:15:33.800 it'd still be
00:15:34.300 on the cloud,
00:15:34.900 right?
00:15:35.300 Or there'd be
00:15:35.800 a backup in the cloud,
00:15:37.140 or,
00:15:38.120 I don't think
00:15:38.640 you can wipe
00:15:39.140 a phone anymore,
00:15:39.900 can you?
00:15:40.960 I don't,
00:15:42.660 if it's Apple?
00:15:47.020 Yeah.
00:15:49.240 You can delete it all.
00:15:51.100 You can delete
00:15:51.980 the phone,
00:15:53.020 but I don't believe
00:15:53.980 you can delete
00:15:54.700 your iCloud records,
00:15:56.200 because there would
00:15:56.860 always be a backup.
00:15:58.460 Wouldn't there?
00:15:58.880 You tell me
00:16:00.580 there's no backup
00:16:01.580 of your iCloud
00:16:03.980 after you think
00:16:04.860 you've deleted it?
00:16:06.140 I don't believe that.
00:16:07.660 I don't believe
00:16:08.420 that at all.
00:16:10.040 Anyway,
00:16:10.680 so I don't,
00:16:11.180 there's some
00:16:11.500 technical questions
00:16:12.420 I wonder about,
00:16:13.620 might not be important,
00:16:15.120 but doesn't it look
00:16:16.720 like this is political?
00:16:19.360 Does this look
00:16:20.220 legal to you
00:16:20.900 or political?
00:16:23.280 Again,
00:16:24.100 do we give
00:16:25.480 the FBI
00:16:26.060 the benefit
00:16:26.700 of a doubt
00:16:27.320 the assumption
00:16:29.560 of innocence?
00:16:31.160 Has the FBI
00:16:32.040 earned
00:16:32.600 the assumption
00:16:33.340 of innocence?
00:16:34.820 Nope.
00:16:36.240 They have earned,
00:16:37.200 they have earned,
00:16:38.560 this is an important
00:16:40.340 question,
00:16:41.160 they've earned
00:16:41.960 a presumption
00:16:42.720 of guilt.
00:16:44.040 They've earned it.
00:16:45.360 I didn't do it.
00:16:46.840 If you're looking
00:16:47.500 at me,
00:16:47.920 don't blame me.
00:16:49.740 Look at the comments.
00:16:50.780 Everybody's on
00:16:51.280 the same page.
00:16:51.940 I didn't do it.
00:16:53.460 It wasn't my fault.
00:16:55.240 The FBI
00:16:55.940 got that themselves.
00:16:57.400 They went out
00:16:58.220 and got themselves
00:16:59.740 an assumption
00:17:00.320 of guilt.
00:17:02.140 So,
00:17:02.900 I'll apply that.
00:17:06.360 And it does
00:17:07.440 look like my,
00:17:09.020 when was the last
00:17:09.640 time somebody
00:17:10.220 mocked me
00:17:10.940 for suggesting
00:17:12.100 that Republicans
00:17:12.860 would be hunted?
00:17:13.680 Do you remember
00:17:15.580 how much mocking
00:17:16.540 I got the first
00:17:17.540 several months
00:17:18.240 of the Biden
00:17:18.860 administration?
00:17:20.280 When they couldn't
00:17:21.280 find all the hunting
00:17:22.420 I had predicted?
00:17:25.100 Nobody's mocking
00:17:25.860 me now,
00:17:26.300 are they?
00:17:27.960 Have you seen
00:17:28.660 even that one troll
00:17:29.680 come after me
00:17:30.540 and say,
00:17:31.220 lately,
00:17:32.140 lately,
00:17:32.860 last two weeks,
00:17:34.380 hey,
00:17:34.760 where's all that
00:17:35.380 haunting you
00:17:36.120 predicted,
00:17:36.960 Scott?
00:17:37.880 Where are all
00:17:38.380 these Republicans
00:17:39.380 being haunted?
00:17:40.700 I don't see
00:17:41.340 any of that.
00:17:43.360 They all shut
00:17:44.220 the fuck up,
00:17:44.980 didn't they?
00:17:45.340 Yeah,
00:17:47.260 yeah,
00:17:47.540 I guess I
00:17:48.100 served them
00:17:49.680 a nice dose
00:17:50.340 of shut the
00:17:50.960 fuck up,
00:17:51.580 didn't I?
00:17:52.660 I mean,
00:17:53.240 I didn't do it
00:17:53.720 intentionally,
00:17:54.300 I was just
00:17:54.660 sitting here.
00:17:55.860 But the news
00:17:56.980 delivered them
00:17:58.820 a nice,
00:17:59.620 heaping,
00:18:00.360 steaming pile
00:18:01.240 of shut the
00:18:01.960 fuck up
00:18:02.680 because the
00:18:03.920 hunting is
00:18:04.420 happening.
00:18:06.480 Now,
00:18:07.800 I've made
00:18:09.680 some pretty
00:18:10.240 unusual predictions
00:18:11.600 that have
00:18:12.340 come true.
00:18:15.200 This one
00:18:15.840 might be more
00:18:16.420 unusual than
00:18:17.220 even some
00:18:17.760 of the other
00:18:18.120 ones.
00:18:19.380 I mean,
00:18:19.560 who has ever
00:18:21.200 made that
00:18:21.660 kind of
00:18:22.000 prediction?
00:18:24.440 Right?
00:18:25.740 Has anybody
00:18:26.560 ever made
00:18:27.300 a prediction
00:18:27.760 that the
00:18:28.400 other team
00:18:28.920 would be
00:18:29.300 haunted
00:18:29.620 after an
00:18:30.240 election
00:18:30.540 in the
00:18:32.140 history of
00:18:32.580 the United
00:18:32.920 States?
00:18:33.260 Probably
00:18:33.500 never.
00:18:35.120 And yet
00:18:35.540 I made
00:18:35.920 that prediction
00:18:36.500 and people
00:18:37.560 laughed,
00:18:39.800 mocked me
00:18:40.500 mercilessly,
00:18:41.940 and then
00:18:42.940 they got a
00:18:43.440 big old
00:18:44.540 dose of
00:18:45.360 shut the
00:18:45.940 fuck up.
00:18:47.340 Reality
00:18:47.820 is awesome
00:18:48.380 sometimes.
00:18:49.560 I saw
00:18:50.800 I think
00:18:52.940 it was
00:18:53.160 on
00:18:53.720 Instagram,
00:18:54.400 a little
00:18:54.580 reel,
00:18:55.940 a little
00:18:56.460 bit by
00:18:56.840 Joe Rogan.
00:18:59.540 And he
00:19:00.140 was saying
00:19:00.500 that success
00:19:01.060 is meaningless
00:19:01.840 if no one
00:19:02.680 loves you.
00:19:05.080 There's no
00:19:05.800 point to it.
00:19:07.080 You know,
00:19:07.280 you could go
00:19:07.720 out and
00:19:08.120 succeed and
00:19:08.840 really make
00:19:09.500 something of
00:19:09.980 yourself,
00:19:10.520 but if
00:19:11.260 nobody cares,
00:19:13.120 and I'm not
00:19:13.800 talking about
00:19:14.240 strangers,
00:19:14.780 I'm talking
00:19:16.900 about like
00:19:17.380 in your
00:19:17.620 actual
00:19:17.880 personal
00:19:18.460 situation,
00:19:19.720 if nobody
00:19:20.200 loves you,
00:19:21.720 like for
00:19:22.180 who you
00:19:22.620 are and
00:19:23.100 really cares
00:19:23.620 about what
00:19:24.060 you did,
00:19:25.440 none of it
00:19:26.060 matters.
00:19:27.780 I mean,
00:19:28.340 it matters to
00:19:28.940 the world.
00:19:31.400 And I have to
00:19:32.960 say this hit me
00:19:33.940 a little bit
00:19:34.360 hard,
00:19:35.060 because while I
00:19:36.020 do feel,
00:19:36.580 you know,
00:19:36.920 lots of love
00:19:37.660 from the
00:19:38.640 audience,
00:19:39.800 lots of love
00:19:40.400 from, you know,
00:19:41.240 just people who are
00:19:41.900 Dilbert fans
00:19:42.580 and stuff,
00:19:43.460 and I do
00:19:43.860 feel lots of
00:19:44.420 love from,
00:19:45.340 you know,
00:19:45.640 community and
00:19:46.760 friends and
00:19:48.080 stuff,
00:19:48.660 but I'm not
00:19:49.220 in a relationship
00:19:51.480 right now.
00:19:53.320 And I have to
00:19:54.320 tell you,
00:19:54.640 this hit me,
00:19:56.140 because there
00:19:57.300 are parts of
00:19:57.800 your life which
00:19:59.280 you experience
00:20:00.040 alone,
00:20:01.160 and then they
00:20:01.660 disappear.
00:20:03.620 It's weird to
00:20:05.000 not be able to
00:20:05.880 experience life
00:20:07.180 as a shared
00:20:09.200 experience,
00:20:10.440 which is,
00:20:10.960 that's sort of
00:20:11.600 the weird
00:20:12.260 situation I'm
00:20:13.080 having.
00:20:13.620 Now,
00:20:13.920 I do share
00:20:14.340 it with you,
00:20:15.760 but I think
00:20:16.260 you would
00:20:16.680 acknowledge it's
00:20:17.800 different from
00:20:18.460 being in some
00:20:19.620 kind of relationship.
00:20:21.280 So it's a
00:20:22.120 very weird
00:20:24.080 and unsettling
00:20:25.080 experience I'm
00:20:26.060 having,
00:20:26.940 which is,
00:20:28.320 100% of my
00:20:29.560 efforts are
00:20:31.780 to benefit
00:20:32.500 you.
00:20:34.460 They don't
00:20:34.900 really benefit
00:20:35.500 me.
00:20:36.900 And,
00:20:37.220 well,
00:20:37.360 except,
00:20:37.760 you know,
00:20:38.000 whatever reflected,
00:20:39.780 you know,
00:20:40.540 credit,
00:20:40.920 I guess.
00:20:42.040 But I have
00:20:42.620 to say that
00:20:43.060 I don't
00:20:43.360 feel it
00:20:44.080 like,
00:20:46.340 I don't
00:20:48.180 feel it like
00:20:48.800 you would if
00:20:49.280 you were sharing
00:20:49.840 it with somebody
00:20:50.380 specific.
00:20:51.640 You know what
00:20:51.900 I mean?
00:20:52.720 It's,
00:20:53.960 and I'm
00:20:54.780 going to give
00:20:55.080 you a little
00:20:55.500 micro lesson
00:20:56.680 here.
00:20:56.980 I wasn't
00:20:57.200 planning on it,
00:20:57.780 but I'll
00:21:00.920 never get
00:21:01.280 another beauty
00:21:02.220 like Christina.
00:21:03.540 Somebody says
00:21:04.240 it was a big
00:21:04.740 blunder to let
00:21:05.460 her go.
00:21:06.660 Well,
00:21:06.920 you know,
00:21:07.200 beauty isn't
00:21:08.320 the only
00:21:08.760 criteria,
00:21:11.340 is but
00:21:12.480 one.
00:21:15.940 Anyway,
00:21:18.220 the micro lesson
00:21:19.460 was on
00:21:20.160 treating life
00:21:21.080 like a
00:21:21.900 video game
00:21:22.900 and
00:21:24.420 gamifying
00:21:26.100 your actual
00:21:28.300 life.
00:21:28.840 And I've
00:21:29.060 been doing
00:21:29.320 more of that
00:21:29.840 lately.
00:21:31.060 For example,
00:21:33.000 if I am
00:21:33.880 folding my
00:21:34.960 laundry,
00:21:36.720 I could
00:21:37.420 frame it
00:21:37.900 in my
00:21:38.100 head as,
00:21:38.600 oh,
00:21:38.980 God,
00:21:39.540 folding
00:21:39.980 laundry,
00:21:40.740 oh,
00:21:41.560 boring,
00:21:42.320 I want to
00:21:42.620 do something
00:21:42.960 interesting.
00:21:44.040 But instead,
00:21:44.900 I treat it
00:21:45.300 like a game.
00:21:46.980 So I try
00:21:47.740 to do it
00:21:48.200 in the most
00:21:48.880 efficient way.
00:21:50.420 And I say,
00:21:50.940 okay,
00:21:51.160 the game
00:21:51.720 is to see
00:21:52.880 how quickly
00:21:53.420 and efficiently
00:21:54.000 I can do
00:21:54.620 this.
00:21:54.980 And then I
00:21:55.340 sort of
00:21:55.600 enjoy it.
00:21:56.660 Because,
00:21:57.120 you know,
00:21:57.380 I've got a
00:21:57.960 towel folding
00:21:58.580 technique that
00:21:59.420 just feels
00:21:59.920 fun to do.
00:22:01.380 And it
00:22:01.640 becomes like
00:22:02.560 a skill
00:22:03.300 game.
00:22:04.500 And then I
00:22:04.860 get through
00:22:05.180 it,
00:22:05.340 and I
00:22:05.460 like it.
00:22:06.300 And I
00:22:06.840 manage to
00:22:07.320 do that
00:22:07.660 with a
00:22:07.900 whole bunch
00:22:08.220 of other
00:22:08.560 things.
00:22:09.360 You know,
00:22:09.520 little boring
00:22:10.180 things,
00:22:10.900 et cetera.
00:22:12.380 Or even
00:22:12.920 getting in
00:22:13.340 trouble,
00:22:13.840 or even
00:22:14.160 business
00:22:14.500 things.
00:22:15.880 You know,
00:22:16.240 to me,
00:22:16.760 I treat
00:22:17.260 them more
00:22:17.660 like there's
00:22:19.080 a game
00:22:19.460 with rules,
00:22:21.100 and here's
00:22:21.640 my little
00:22:22.080 challenge,
00:22:23.240 and I've
00:22:23.460 got to get
00:22:24.420 past that
00:22:24.840 challenge.
00:22:26.260 But I'm
00:22:27.220 writing this
00:22:27.740 in my
00:22:28.300 upcoming book,
00:22:29.040 so you
00:22:29.440 might see
00:22:29.740 this again.
00:22:30.840 But,
00:22:31.100 one of
00:22:33.200 the things
00:22:33.520 that video
00:22:34.020 games do
00:22:34.640 is they
00:22:35.040 don't give
00:22:35.560 you,
00:22:36.180 typically,
00:22:37.260 they don't
00:22:37.700 give you
00:22:38.060 all the
00:22:38.360 resources you
00:22:39.140 need to
00:22:39.520 win the
00:22:39.840 game at
00:22:40.760 the start
00:22:41.200 of the
00:22:41.400 game.
00:22:42.400 You have
00:22:42.960 to go
00:22:43.200 get them.
00:22:44.300 So you
00:22:45.020 don't have
00:22:45.380 all the
00:22:45.660 energy you
00:22:46.220 need,
00:22:46.540 or life,
00:22:47.080 or weapons,
00:22:47.680 you have
00:22:47.920 to find
00:22:48.320 them along
00:22:48.800 the way.
00:22:49.680 But you
00:22:50.200 don't know
00:22:50.540 where they
00:22:50.860 will be.
00:22:51.640 You just
00:22:52.180 have to
00:22:52.580 trust that
00:22:54.820 if you
00:22:55.120 play well,
00:22:55.700 you're going
00:22:55.960 to find
00:22:56.300 stuff.
00:22:57.560 And the
00:22:57.860 longer you
00:22:58.600 play,
00:22:58.940 the better
00:22:59.220 you'll be
00:22:59.520 at finding
00:23:00.240 stuff,
00:23:00.680 I guess.
00:23:02.080 And I
00:23:03.620 treat the
00:23:04.080 actual world
00:23:04.840 like that.
00:23:07.080 And it
00:23:07.740 works really
00:23:08.260 well.
00:23:09.100 Because the
00:23:09.540 actual world
00:23:10.360 does serve
00:23:11.560 up resources
00:23:12.480 in surprising
00:23:14.260 ways,
00:23:14.860 just like
00:23:15.200 video games.
00:23:16.700 So if I
00:23:17.560 say to
00:23:17.860 myself,
00:23:18.540 I want
00:23:19.060 to accomplish
00:23:19.580 X, but I
00:23:20.320 don't know
00:23:20.620 how to get
00:23:20.980 there, and
00:23:21.920 I don't have
00:23:22.400 the resources
00:23:22.960 to do it,
00:23:24.300 I never
00:23:24.760 say don't
00:23:25.300 start.
00:23:26.840 Because if
00:23:27.540 you did
00:23:27.820 that with
00:23:28.080 a video
00:23:28.420 game, you
00:23:29.520 wouldn't
00:23:29.760 play.
00:23:30.060 So instead
00:23:32.040 I say,
00:23:32.640 what's the
00:23:32.980 only thing
00:23:33.760 I can
00:23:34.140 do?
00:23:34.880 Now maybe
00:23:35.220 the only
00:23:35.560 thing I
00:23:35.920 can do
00:23:36.420 is do
00:23:37.460 a Google
00:23:37.860 search.
00:23:39.900 Or ask
00:23:40.640 somebody a
00:23:41.060 question.
00:23:41.980 It's all I
00:23:42.420 can do.
00:23:42.780 I don't have
00:23:43.080 any resources
00:23:43.760 or even know
00:23:44.680 what to do
00:23:45.100 next.
00:23:45.840 But I do
00:23:46.700 that first
00:23:47.180 step, and
00:23:48.200 then I see
00:23:48.660 if I get
00:23:49.180 a resource.
00:23:50.020 For
00:23:51.560 example, the
00:23:53.580 process of
00:23:54.320 writing the
00:23:54.800 book I'm
00:23:55.140 writing.
00:23:56.560 Here was
00:23:57.100 the process.
00:23:58.120 I didn't
00:23:58.580 have the
00:23:58.940 energy, and
00:23:59.640 I didn't
00:23:59.880 have the
00:24:00.220 resources to
00:24:00.980 do it.
00:24:01.920 And I
00:24:02.400 didn't even
00:24:02.720 have a
00:24:03.000 great idea
00:24:03.540 for a
00:24:04.800 book.
00:24:05.700 Now one
00:24:06.100 day I got
00:24:06.480 this idea
00:24:06.960 of doing
00:24:07.320 something about
00:24:07.800 reframing,
00:24:09.120 and I just
00:24:09.860 wrote it on
00:24:10.500 my whiteboard,
00:24:11.800 you know,
00:24:12.120 reframing book.
00:24:13.480 No title for
00:24:14.280 the book or
00:24:14.660 anything, just
00:24:15.120 sort of an
00:24:15.520 idea.
00:24:16.520 Once I
00:24:17.060 wrote it
00:24:17.380 down and
00:24:18.760 looked at it
00:24:19.340 every time I
00:24:19.880 saw it, I
00:24:21.080 started thinking,
00:24:21.740 you know, I
00:24:23.120 should at
00:24:23.500 least, at
00:24:24.420 the very
00:24:24.760 least, I
00:24:26.520 should see if
00:24:27.060 there would
00:24:27.340 be some
00:24:28.200 chapter titles
00:24:29.480 that would
00:24:29.840 fit into
00:24:30.300 that.
00:24:31.240 And then I
00:24:31.600 just start, I
00:24:32.360 open up a
00:24:32.860 document, and
00:24:34.280 I put a
00:24:35.400 reframing book,
00:24:36.320 you know,
00:24:36.520 working title.
00:24:38.120 And then I
00:24:38.640 just say,
00:24:38.980 what would be
00:24:39.400 in that?
00:24:40.380 And I think
00:24:40.860 of some
00:24:41.140 examples.
00:24:42.160 And they're
00:24:42.460 just bullet
00:24:42.880 points.
00:24:43.940 And they're
00:24:44.400 just bullet
00:24:44.780 points that
00:24:45.300 would become
00:24:45.700 maybe chapter
00:24:46.700 headings at
00:24:47.460 some point.
00:24:48.760 And then I
00:24:49.380 look at it
00:24:49.800 and say,
00:24:50.120 huh, this
00:24:51.460 looks like it
00:24:52.000 could be a
00:24:52.400 book.
00:24:53.440 And then I
00:24:54.100 get a
00:24:55.040 resource.
00:24:56.520 I get an
00:24:57.100 energy from
00:24:58.780 having done
00:24:59.380 something that
00:24:59.900 looks like,
00:25:00.400 huh, this
00:25:01.300 could be
00:25:01.600 something.
00:25:02.100 Then I
00:25:02.380 imagine it.
00:25:03.840 Then I
00:25:04.720 shared it
00:25:05.980 with you.
00:25:07.600 I shared
00:25:08.000 it on
00:25:08.300 livestream that
00:25:08.940 I was
00:25:09.160 thinking about
00:25:09.660 it.
00:25:10.140 Then people
00:25:10.600 said, yes,
00:25:11.280 yes, write
00:25:11.720 that book.
00:25:12.820 We'd love to
00:25:13.340 have that
00:25:13.640 book.
00:25:14.700 And then I
00:25:15.160 got a
00:25:15.400 resource.
00:25:16.500 I got
00:25:16.880 energy.
00:25:17.840 So I
00:25:18.320 didn't have
00:25:18.720 the energy
00:25:19.140 to do it.
00:25:20.520 I simply
00:25:21.320 trusted, like a
00:25:22.380 video game, that
00:25:23.720 if I started
00:25:24.300 walking forward, I
00:25:25.320 could figure it
00:25:25.880 out.
00:25:27.280 And I
00:25:28.500 figured out I
00:25:29.140 needed energy.
00:25:30.640 And so I
00:25:31.080 went to you and
00:25:32.220 said, hey, I got
00:25:32.780 this idea, and then
00:25:33.540 you gave me
00:25:34.000 energy.
00:25:35.320 And I
00:25:35.760 thought, oh, shit,
00:25:36.500 people really want
00:25:37.280 to see this book.
00:25:38.820 Now that's
00:25:39.500 different.
00:25:40.360 Because if it's the
00:25:41.300 publisher who wants
00:25:42.180 to see it, that's
00:25:42.940 interesting.
00:25:43.320 But that's
00:25:45.300 different than if
00:25:46.280 the public wants
00:25:46.980 to see it, right?
00:25:48.160 And it's
00:25:48.500 different than if I
00:25:49.200 just want to make
00:25:50.400 a book.
00:25:51.560 So now I've got
00:25:52.500 energy.
00:25:52.880 Then I go to my
00:25:53.700 agent, book
00:25:56.080 agent.
00:25:56.720 I say, I got
00:25:57.140 this idea.
00:25:58.520 And he looks at
00:25:59.120 the idea, and he
00:26:00.040 says, I love this
00:26:01.460 idea.
00:26:02.180 We definitely sell
00:26:02.960 this idea.
00:26:04.460 Let's talk to your
00:26:05.560 favorite publisher.
00:26:07.000 And I talk to my
00:26:07.860 favorite publisher, and
00:26:08.720 they say, we love
00:26:09.380 this idea.
00:26:09.880 Now I've got all
00:26:11.640 the energy I
00:26:12.220 need.
00:26:13.120 I've got audience, I've
00:26:14.380 got a publisher, I've
00:26:15.380 got my agent, and
00:26:16.320 they're the ones that
00:26:16.840 know the most, right?
00:26:18.520 It'd be one thing if a
00:26:19.440 stranger said, oh, do
00:26:20.480 that.
00:26:21.040 But when the experts,
00:26:22.780 the people who know
00:26:23.640 what needs to be in a
00:26:25.340 book to sell, when
00:26:27.520 they tell you that
00:26:28.160 something, well, that's
00:26:29.560 energizing.
00:26:31.220 All right?
00:26:31.960 So then I start
00:26:33.460 writing.
00:26:34.400 And of course, it's
00:26:35.040 hard, and it's
00:26:35.700 boring, and I fall
00:26:37.140 asleep and stuff.
00:26:37.940 So, you know, you
00:26:39.260 know my story of
00:26:39.980 trying to work
00:26:40.480 through how I can
00:26:41.140 stay awake and have
00:26:41.940 time to do it and
00:26:42.600 stuff.
00:26:43.460 It was a separate
00:26:44.060 process.
00:26:45.320 But now I've gotten
00:26:46.540 to the point where I've
00:26:47.200 got 36,000 words.
00:26:50.620 And all the chapters
00:26:52.340 are stubbed out.
00:26:53.440 So every chapter has
00:26:54.660 at least a paragraph
00:26:55.520 that I'll maybe plump
00:26:57.880 out a little bit.
00:26:59.320 But once you see a
00:27:00.600 book with probably 90
00:27:05.140 reframes in it, and
00:27:07.920 35,000 words, you
00:27:11.640 know you have to
00:27:12.360 finish it.
00:27:13.700 You have to finish
00:27:14.360 it.
00:27:15.120 Right?
00:27:15.320 Because you're not
00:27:15.700 going to leave half a
00:27:16.560 book if you have my
00:27:18.520 personality.
00:27:19.360 Some people could, but
00:27:20.480 I don't have the
00:27:21.800 personality where I
00:27:23.480 can leave something
00:27:24.200 that pregnant and
00:27:25.680 then walk away from
00:27:26.480 it.
00:27:27.440 Don't make any
00:27:28.240 jokes.
00:27:28.820 I know you're
00:27:29.220 going to.
00:27:30.320 But so that's the
00:27:31.940 process.
00:27:32.280 The process is you
00:27:33.600 don't understand that
00:27:35.500 there's energy.
00:27:36.600 You understand that
00:27:37.700 you're in a game in
00:27:40.020 which the energy will
00:27:41.280 be there if you look
00:27:42.280 for it.
00:27:43.420 But you've got to go
00:27:44.100 get it.
00:27:45.360 Right?
00:27:45.920 Now you will be
00:27:46.940 amazed how many times
00:27:48.240 gamifying a real
00:27:50.060 world thing makes
00:27:51.400 sense.
00:27:52.440 Somebody just
00:27:52.960 mentioned starting,
00:27:55.260 let's say, looking
00:27:56.340 for a job.
00:27:58.820 How awful is the
00:28:00.320 process of looking
00:28:01.500 for a job and
00:28:02.560 going on interviews?
00:28:04.920 Really awful.
00:28:06.560 Right?
00:28:06.900 You don't like it.
00:28:08.120 But what if he
00:28:08.580 gamified it?
00:28:10.260 I have a friend who
00:28:11.180 used to do that.
00:28:12.000 He'd go on interviews
00:28:12.920 not because he wanted
00:28:14.640 the job.
00:28:15.520 Sometimes they were
00:28:16.220 worse jobs than the
00:28:17.160 one he had.
00:28:18.200 But he gamified it.
00:28:19.760 He said, I'm going
00:28:20.780 to enjoy going on
00:28:21.680 this interview and
00:28:22.500 going through the
00:28:23.520 process.
00:28:24.320 And in the process
00:28:24.880 I'm going to get
00:28:25.540 good at interviewing.
00:28:27.900 So one day he went
00:28:28.940 for yet another
00:28:30.040 interview.
00:28:30.820 interview that was
00:28:31.820 below the job he
00:28:32.960 already had.
00:28:34.420 So he does the
00:28:35.040 interview because that
00:28:35.940 was his process.
00:28:36.760 He had a system.
00:28:37.960 His system was he'd
00:28:38.940 always do the
00:28:39.460 interview no matter
00:28:40.560 what the job was.
00:28:42.220 So he does the
00:28:42.880 system, finishes the
00:28:44.780 interview, and the
00:28:45.940 hiring person says,
00:28:47.400 you know, you're way
00:28:48.500 overqualified for this
00:28:49.560 job.
00:28:50.260 This isn't really the
00:28:51.260 fit for you.
00:28:52.680 However, the boss of
00:28:55.220 the person in the job
00:28:56.320 we were trying to fill
00:28:57.160 is also going to be
00:28:58.300 leaving.
00:28:58.560 You might be perfect
00:29:00.160 for that job.
00:29:02.360 So he got a job and
00:29:03.800 a promotion at the
00:29:04.620 same time, accidentally.
00:29:06.940 And he took it.
00:29:08.740 Because his system was
00:29:10.200 they would just put him
00:29:11.160 in situations where
00:29:12.220 good things could
00:29:13.000 happen.
00:29:14.260 No specific good
00:29:15.460 thing.
00:29:16.500 I mean, specifically
00:29:17.460 it's a job, but he
00:29:18.700 just put himself in a
00:29:19.660 situation where over
00:29:21.020 and over again, luck
00:29:22.820 could find him.
00:29:23.980 If he stayed home
00:29:26.340 thinking about a job
00:29:27.460 or just did some
00:29:28.380 Google searches, how's
00:29:29.860 luck going to find
00:29:30.540 him?
00:29:31.140 It's not going to
00:29:31.640 find him.
00:29:32.420 He's hiding.
00:29:33.640 But he didn't hide
00:29:34.500 from luck.
00:29:35.820 He gamified his
00:29:36.880 experience, said, yeah,
00:29:38.040 go on another
00:29:38.560 interview.
00:29:38.920 This will be fun.
00:29:39.960 I'll just enjoy the
00:29:40.680 process like a game.
00:29:44.060 He's doing great.
00:29:45.180 Just ran into the
00:29:46.200 other day.
00:29:46.980 Career is just
00:29:47.940 killing it.
00:29:48.780 All right.
00:29:53.700 Does it bother you
00:29:54.880 when you hear people
00:29:55.660 called election
00:29:56.500 deniers?
00:29:58.380 Does that phrase
00:29:59.500 just get to you a
00:30:01.120 little bit like,
00:30:02.220 you know, what
00:30:06.140 about election
00:30:07.840 skeptic?
00:30:09.560 Would that bother
00:30:10.560 you?
00:30:11.760 Election skeptic.
00:30:13.740 Because I have to
00:30:15.400 admit that some of
00:30:16.460 the skeptics bring an
00:30:18.700 upon themselves by
00:30:19.880 making it an
00:30:20.640 absolute.
00:30:21.760 It would be one
00:30:22.660 thing to say we
00:30:23.560 need a system where
00:30:24.460 we can have more
00:30:25.040 confidence.
00:30:26.740 Perfectly reasonable
00:30:27.700 request.
00:30:28.960 It is not reasonable
00:30:30.020 to say that you
00:30:31.520 know with 100%
00:30:32.560 certainty that that,
00:30:34.740 let's say, 2020
00:30:35.540 election was stolen
00:30:37.760 in an important
00:30:40.760 way.
00:30:42.120 It is not reasonable
00:30:43.340 to say you know it
00:30:44.180 for sure.
00:30:46.400 Does anybody
00:30:46.760 disagree with that?
00:30:48.700 I get how big
00:30:50.420 the signals are.
00:30:52.200 The signals are
00:30:53.100 like just flashing.
00:30:55.360 But how many of
00:30:56.220 those flashing
00:30:56.960 signals have been
00:30:57.960 debunked so far?
00:30:59.840 Like all of them?
00:31:01.520 Or almost all of
00:31:02.720 them?
00:31:04.660 And so he says
00:31:05.400 none.
00:31:06.340 Well, there wasn't
00:31:07.120 any Kraken,
00:31:08.640 was there?
00:31:09.360 There wasn't any
00:31:10.340 Venezuelan general
00:31:12.380 involved with anything.
00:31:13.440 So here's what I
00:31:17.260 suggest.
00:31:17.780 I think we should
00:31:18.480 have a name for
00:31:19.320 the other side.
00:31:20.680 The people who
00:31:21.520 believe elections
00:31:22.560 are definitely,
00:31:23.980 totally,
00:31:25.140 no doubt about it,
00:31:26.960 absolutely good.
00:31:31.780 Don't we need a name
00:31:32.800 for them?
00:31:34.220 I'm going to call
00:31:35.000 them the election
00:31:35.780 gullibles.
00:31:36.360 Because you'd be
00:31:39.060 gullible as hell
00:31:39.980 if the reason that
00:31:42.020 you think the
00:31:42.500 election was valid
00:31:43.500 was because the
00:31:45.780 least credible
00:31:46.900 institutions that
00:31:48.340 we've ever seen
00:31:49.180 in our human
00:31:50.300 existence told you
00:31:52.060 they were fine.
00:31:54.300 Because you didn't
00:31:55.200 do an audit,
00:31:55.800 did you?
00:31:56.620 Did any of you
00:31:57.480 audit the entire
00:31:58.300 election in 2020?
00:31:59.460 I didn't.
00:32:00.960 I was busy.
00:32:01.860 Maybe other
00:32:03.980 people did.
00:32:05.500 So if other
00:32:06.100 people audit
00:32:06.660 something and
00:32:07.280 tell you about
00:32:07.980 it, you don't
00:32:09.360 know what
00:32:09.700 happened.
00:32:10.080 You only know
00:32:10.520 what they told
00:32:10.940 you.
00:32:12.060 Am I right?
00:32:13.680 If somebody
00:32:14.460 else does an
00:32:15.100 audit and then
00:32:15.700 they tell you
00:32:16.180 what happened,
00:32:17.300 you don't know
00:32:17.860 what happened.
00:32:18.300 You only know
00:32:18.740 what they told
00:32:19.180 you.
00:32:20.500 So the people
00:32:22.500 who are just
00:32:23.140 absolutely,
00:32:24.240 positively convinced
00:32:25.540 this election
00:32:26.620 or any other
00:32:27.300 election had no
00:32:28.560 problems at all.
00:32:30.420 They're gullible.
00:32:32.860 Now, they
00:32:33.480 might be right.
00:32:36.220 Can you handle
00:32:37.040 that nuance?
00:32:38.660 They could be
00:32:39.340 gullible for
00:32:40.840 believing somebody
00:32:41.700 who shouldn't be
00:32:42.320 believed.
00:32:43.940 But sometimes it
00:32:44.940 might be true.
00:32:46.180 It might be true
00:32:47.160 that the election
00:32:47.720 was fine.
00:32:49.160 I'm completely
00:32:50.000 open to that,
00:32:50.660 by the way.
00:32:51.400 I'm completely
00:32:52.060 open to it.
00:32:52.680 It might have
00:32:52.920 been fine.
00:32:53.720 Maybe.
00:32:54.420 Maybe just there
00:32:55.500 were more mail-in
00:32:56.680 votes and maybe
00:32:58.080 people just wanted
00:32:58.800 to go to sleep at
00:32:59.580 night and recount
00:33:00.220 in the morning
00:33:00.800 when they had
00:33:01.740 more votes
00:33:02.220 coming in
00:33:02.640 by mail.
00:33:03.580 Maybe.
00:33:04.540 Who knows?
00:33:07.020 You know,
00:33:07.680 the...
00:33:08.620 I just want
00:33:09.660 to toss this
00:33:10.160 down here
00:33:10.520 as a possibility,
00:33:11.620 but the people
00:33:13.200 who wondered
00:33:13.580 why the elections
00:33:14.220 were stopped
00:33:14.920 overnight,
00:33:16.360 wasn't it because
00:33:17.500 there were still
00:33:17.980 votes coming in
00:33:18.820 and there was
00:33:19.820 no point in
00:33:20.340 working overnight
00:33:21.080 if you knew
00:33:22.140 you had to come
00:33:22.640 back in the
00:33:23.040 morning anyway
00:33:23.560 because there
00:33:24.680 would still
00:33:24.920 be votes
00:33:25.320 coming in?
00:33:25.780 because it
00:33:27.320 seems like
00:33:27.660 they kept
00:33:27.940 finding them,
00:33:28.680 right?
00:33:30.380 I don't know.
00:33:31.580 Somebody says
00:33:32.160 no,
00:33:32.520 I'm just
00:33:33.020 floating that
00:33:33.800 possibility.
00:33:34.260 All right,
00:33:35.900 well,
00:33:36.060 there's some
00:33:36.360 things that
00:33:36.720 we don't
00:33:37.000 understand,
00:33:38.580 but I'm
00:33:38.980 going to say,
00:33:39.560 I'm going to
00:33:39.860 start using
00:33:40.300 this,
00:33:40.620 the election
00:33:41.060 gullibles,
00:33:42.160 because if
00:33:42.820 the least
00:33:43.580 credible
00:33:44.100 institutions
00:33:44.920 in the world
00:33:45.620 told you
00:33:46.080 something was
00:33:46.680 good,
00:33:47.620 you don't
00:33:49.000 have any
00:33:49.460 evidence.
00:33:50.800 You're gullible
00:33:51.460 if you believe
00:33:52.220 it to be
00:33:53.500 absolutely
00:33:53.980 true.
00:33:54.920 You're not
00:33:55.600 gullible if
00:33:56.320 you simply
00:33:56.780 act as
00:33:57.320 though it's
00:33:57.600 true.
00:33:58.760 That would
00:33:59.420 be actually
00:34:00.060 just a
00:34:00.500 reasonable
00:34:00.780 thing to
00:34:01.200 do.
00:34:01.860 We can
00:34:02.480 act as
00:34:03.080 though it's
00:34:03.420 true.
00:34:05.120 I think
00:34:05.780 we do.
00:34:09.320 Lindsey
00:34:09.840 Graham,
00:34:10.740 yesterday was
00:34:13.740 such a weird
00:34:14.280 day because
00:34:15.440 both the
00:34:15.940 Republicans
00:34:16.360 and the
00:34:17.400 Democrats
00:34:18.600 just completely
00:34:19.680 failed in
00:34:20.960 their political
00:34:21.660 messaging.
00:34:23.500 Lindsey Graham
00:34:24.580 decides that
00:34:27.300 this would
00:34:27.600 be a good
00:34:27.980 time to
00:34:29.020 introduce a
00:34:29.640 bill to
00:34:30.000 ban abortion
00:34:30.680 nationwide after
00:34:31.580 15 weeks.
00:34:33.040 Now, I'm
00:34:34.140 not going to
00:34:34.500 give you any
00:34:34.960 opinions on
00:34:35.540 abortion because
00:34:37.020 I have a
00:34:37.740 cock.
00:34:38.760 Everybody
00:34:39.120 okay with
00:34:39.600 that?
00:34:41.120 You don't
00:34:41.720 want to hear
00:34:42.100 my opinion
00:34:43.080 on abortion
00:34:43.640 because I
00:34:44.440 have a
00:34:44.680 cock.
00:34:45.620 So, if
00:34:46.680 you want an
00:34:47.120 opinion on
00:34:47.580 abortion, ask
00:34:48.180 a woman and
00:34:49.960 then tell me
00:34:50.820 what she
00:34:51.100 said.
00:34:52.440 That's my
00:34:53.200 view on
00:34:53.540 opinion.
00:34:54.580 I'm going
00:34:55.140 to take the
00:34:55.780 cock exception
00:34:57.920 option out
00:34:58.760 because I
00:35:00.000 don't want you
00:35:00.400 to be thinking
00:35:00.940 about my
00:35:01.420 opinion on
00:35:01.900 abortion when
00:35:02.540 I tell you
00:35:03.100 this story.
00:35:04.240 This is just
00:35:05.020 a political
00:35:05.480 story.
00:35:06.400 The political
00:35:07.120 story is
00:35:08.380 why the
00:35:09.060 hell would
00:35:10.580 you bring
00:35:10.940 up the
00:35:11.620 one thing
00:35:12.120 that can
00:35:12.480 destroy your
00:35:13.280 election
00:35:13.660 possibilities when
00:35:14.840 everything is
00:35:15.340 going well for
00:35:16.060 the Republicans
00:35:16.620 or largely
00:35:17.680 and then you
00:35:19.160 bring up the
00:35:19.680 one topic that
00:35:20.680 could derail
00:35:21.300 everything?
00:35:23.200 Now, if
00:35:24.260 somebody said
00:35:24.800 he does
00:35:25.140 this every
00:35:25.580 year, he
00:35:26.780 floats the
00:35:27.860 idea every
00:35:28.400 year, is
00:35:28.740 that true?
00:35:29.840 But that
00:35:30.400 wouldn't be an
00:35:31.200 explanation for
00:35:32.380 why he did
00:35:32.800 it this year.
00:35:34.080 Yeah, it
00:35:34.580 doesn't matter
00:35:35.060 that he does
00:35:35.580 this every
00:35:36.040 year.
00:35:37.880 I mean, maybe
00:35:38.320 that's his
00:35:38.820 explanation.
00:35:40.480 But it's
00:35:41.560 still insanely
00:35:42.760 dumb if you
00:35:43.920 want your team
00:35:44.500 to win.
00:35:46.760 Now, since
00:35:47.540 that's just an
00:35:48.200 internal political
00:35:48.960 thing, that's
00:35:49.640 more his problem
00:35:50.460 and the
00:35:51.020 Republicans
00:35:51.500 problem.
00:35:52.460 But it's
00:35:52.700 fun to
00:35:53.080 watch.
00:35:54.940 I love
00:35:55.640 watching a
00:35:56.320 politician make
00:35:57.080 a mistake that
00:35:57.780 not one of
00:35:58.540 us would have
00:35:59.040 made.
00:36:00.360 Would you
00:36:00.960 have made
00:36:01.280 that mistake?
00:36:03.780 Seriously,
00:36:04.420 would you?
00:36:05.320 You would have
00:36:06.000 known not to
00:36:06.600 do that, right?
00:36:08.000 I feel like
00:36:08.560 everybody would
00:36:09.520 have.
00:36:10.560 So, I
00:36:11.020 don't know,
00:36:11.260 maybe he has
00:36:11.700 some four
00:36:12.880 dimensional game
00:36:13.680 that we're not
00:36:14.140 seeing.
00:36:15.260 And it could
00:36:15.780 be that he's
00:36:16.280 just being
00:36:16.640 consistent.
00:36:18.200 It could
00:36:18.520 be.
00:36:18.720 But it's
00:36:20.500 a weird
00:36:21.200 time to be
00:36:21.860 consistent.
00:36:23.800 A weird
00:36:24.180 time to do
00:36:24.740 it.
00:36:25.660 At the same
00:36:26.180 time, Joe
00:36:28.000 Biden was
00:36:28.580 giving his
00:36:29.200 celebrating the
00:36:33.060 end of
00:36:33.480 inflation, while
00:36:34.800 even CNN was
00:36:35.860 showing at the
00:36:36.680 same time the
00:36:37.960 stock market
00:36:38.660 plunging 1,200
00:36:39.560 points because
00:36:41.020 nobody believed
00:36:41.920 that inflation
00:36:42.900 is done because
00:36:43.680 the new numbers
00:36:44.340 were so bad.
00:36:45.700 They were so
00:36:46.260 bad, but they
00:36:46.880 were not good.
00:36:48.720 Now, watching
00:36:50.320 the images of
00:36:53.920 all those happy
00:36:54.580 Democrats
00:36:55.200 celebrating when
00:36:56.240 the world was
00:36:56.840 burning was
00:36:58.660 just the worst.
00:36:59.940 Just the worst.
00:37:01.040 And Dana
00:37:01.460 Perino did the
00:37:02.920 best job of
00:37:03.800 eviscerating the
00:37:05.460 Democrats on
00:37:06.240 this.
00:37:06.840 As she noted,
00:37:08.420 before you put
00:37:09.200 on an event,
00:37:10.920 check the
00:37:11.400 calendar.
00:37:12.860 Basic stuff.
00:37:14.440 Check the
00:37:14.940 calendar.
00:37:15.880 You don't want
00:37:16.300 to put on this
00:37:16.840 event the same
00:37:17.480 day the numbers
00:37:18.080 were coming
00:37:18.400 out.
00:37:19.480 If you'd
00:37:20.060 even waited
00:37:20.540 one day or
00:37:21.460 done it one
00:37:22.460 day before,
00:37:23.880 then it's not
00:37:25.000 so much a
00:37:25.520 story.
00:37:26.320 But having the
00:37:27.040 same day as
00:37:27.620 the numbers,
00:37:28.480 that was a
00:37:29.500 risky play.
00:37:32.080 Well, another
00:37:34.020 thing that I
00:37:34.520 learned in the
00:37:35.080 news today is
00:37:36.140 did you know
00:37:36.680 it's illegal to
00:37:37.840 kill people in
00:37:38.500 their sleep,
00:37:39.620 even if they
00:37:41.100 have it coming?
00:37:43.360 That just
00:37:44.140 feels like it
00:37:44.740 shouldn't be a
00:37:45.200 law.
00:37:45.400 So the
00:37:46.600 specific here is
00:37:47.780 there was a
00:37:48.360 15-year-old
00:37:49.140 girl who
00:37:51.040 was repeatedly
00:37:52.040 raped by a
00:37:53.420 man in his
00:37:53.960 30s, and
00:37:55.980 at one point
00:37:56.680 at knife
00:37:57.520 point.
00:37:58.920 So there was
00:37:59.520 violence involved.
00:38:00.780 We're not
00:38:01.420 talking about
00:38:01.840 statutory rape,
00:38:03.360 so it's not
00:38:03.980 just that she
00:38:04.780 was underage.
00:38:06.080 She was
00:38:06.580 actually raped
00:38:08.000 by force
00:38:08.600 at knife
00:38:10.580 point.
00:38:10.860 At one
00:38:11.840 point, the
00:38:12.240 guy fell
00:38:12.660 asleep, and
00:38:14.520 she got
00:38:14.920 access to
00:38:15.460 the knife
00:38:15.820 that was
00:38:16.040 on the
00:38:16.460 bedstand or
00:38:17.440 something, and
00:38:18.680 she stabbed
00:38:19.400 him to death
00:38:20.100 as he
00:38:21.600 presumably woke
00:38:22.960 up while he
00:38:23.420 was being
00:38:23.680 stabbed to
00:38:24.140 death.
00:38:25.160 And she
00:38:25.840 was convicted
00:38:26.480 of involuntary
00:38:29.420 manslaughter and
00:38:30.480 willful injury.
00:38:32.440 She won't
00:38:33.400 necessarily serve
00:38:34.460 time in jail,
00:38:35.340 so she
00:38:38.880 looks like
00:38:39.360 she's going
00:38:39.700 to get a
00:38:40.240 deferred prison
00:38:40.980 sentence.
00:38:42.040 But she
00:38:42.460 could serve
00:38:42.920 10 years if
00:38:43.800 she violates
00:38:44.380 probation, up
00:38:45.400 to 20, I
00:38:45.960 think.
00:38:46.840 But here's
00:38:47.420 the weird
00:38:47.720 part.
00:38:48.100 Iowa has
00:38:48.760 this mandatory
00:38:49.500 rule that
00:38:51.240 if you're
00:38:51.680 found guilty
00:38:52.280 of this
00:38:52.720 crime and
00:38:53.420 this kind
00:38:54.000 of situation,
00:38:54.760 as she
00:38:55.100 was, that
00:38:56.800 she has to
00:38:58.500 pay the
00:38:58.880 family of
00:38:59.600 the deceased
00:39:00.340 $150,000
00:39:02.260 in restitution.
00:39:03.960 I'm not
00:39:04.300 sure how they
00:39:04.800 calculate it.
00:39:05.340 So she
00:39:07.340 has to pay
00:39:08.000 her rapist
00:39:09.020 $150,000.
00:39:11.760 They rape his
00:39:12.200 family because
00:39:12.760 he's dead.
00:39:14.560 Now, let
00:39:16.100 me ask you
00:39:16.520 this.
00:39:18.220 What is the
00:39:19.060 definition of
00:39:19.840 self-defense?
00:39:21.460 Now, here
00:39:21.900 clearly it's
00:39:22.640 being defined
00:39:23.320 as not
00:39:23.960 immediate
00:39:24.420 danger.
00:39:25.840 But if
00:39:26.420 you've been
00:39:26.840 repeatedly
00:39:27.800 raped by
00:39:29.460 a guy with
00:39:29.980 a knife,
00:39:31.500 and he
00:39:32.440 falls asleep
00:39:33.100 for a minute,
00:39:33.680 and you
00:39:33.920 knife him
00:39:34.320 to death,
00:39:34.720 are you
00:39:35.540 telling me
00:39:35.880 that's not
00:39:36.300 self-defense?
00:39:38.640 Because I
00:39:39.380 get the
00:39:39.740 whole it's
00:39:40.380 not a
00:39:40.720 media thing,
00:39:41.980 but it's
00:39:43.000 guaranteed.
00:39:45.880 If it's
00:39:46.580 guaranteed but
00:39:47.500 not immediate,
00:39:48.280 you can't
00:39:48.740 kill somebody?
00:39:50.180 It's guaranteed
00:39:51.060 that when he
00:39:52.300 wakes up he's
00:39:52.900 still going to
00:39:53.260 be a rapist.
00:39:54.180 If you put
00:39:56.840 me on that
00:39:57.380 jury, I
00:39:58.820 would have
00:39:59.140 hung that
00:39:59.660 jury so
00:40:00.260 hard.
00:40:02.340 There would
00:40:03.260 be no way
00:40:03.800 in the world
00:40:04.100 they'd ever
00:40:04.540 get me to
00:40:05.000 vote guilty
00:40:05.740 on anything.
00:40:07.480 Now, I get,
00:40:08.820 I've been on
00:40:09.360 juries, so I
00:40:10.740 know the judge
00:40:11.520 would make
00:40:12.160 sure that you
00:40:12.740 knew it's
00:40:13.380 not your
00:40:13.840 duty to
00:40:16.260 find justice.
00:40:17.700 That's not
00:40:18.160 the job of
00:40:18.720 the juries.
00:40:19.840 The juries
00:40:20.360 are not
00:40:20.980 there to
00:40:21.380 find justice.
00:40:22.600 That is not
00:40:23.140 their job.
00:40:24.520 They're there
00:40:24.960 to determine
00:40:25.620 if the
00:40:26.100 evidence
00:40:26.560 demonstrated
00:40:28.120 that the
00:40:28.520 crime had
00:40:28.980 been committed.
00:40:30.420 That's it.
00:40:31.720 And it looks
00:40:32.320 like that's
00:40:32.740 what they
00:40:33.000 did.
00:40:34.320 And I've
00:40:35.020 often said
00:40:35.520 that serving
00:40:36.240 jury duty
00:40:36.940 should be
00:40:38.260 just something
00:40:39.340 you should
00:40:39.660 all do.
00:40:40.720 Just to
00:40:41.260 feel how
00:40:42.040 serious the
00:40:43.560 people in
00:40:43.980 the jury
00:40:44.360 take this
00:40:45.180 stuff.
00:40:46.120 Like, until
00:40:46.540 you feel how
00:40:47.220 serious your
00:40:48.700 fellow citizens
00:40:49.460 are about
00:40:50.060 getting it
00:40:50.560 right on
00:40:51.280 a jury, you
00:40:52.520 don't feel
00:40:53.220 the country's
00:40:54.180 cohesiveness.
00:40:55.580 It's easy to
00:40:56.400 feel like we're
00:40:57.220 not together.
00:40:58.400 But boy, you
00:40:59.040 take 12
00:40:59.680 strangers from
00:41:01.220 any demographic
00:41:03.120 group, you
00:41:04.540 put them
00:41:04.920 together and
00:41:05.440 you say,
00:41:05.900 you're in
00:41:06.200 charge of
00:41:07.280 this guy
00:41:07.700 going to
00:41:08.140 jail or
00:41:08.660 not.
00:41:09.800 They take
00:41:10.520 that job
00:41:11.020 really seriously.
00:41:12.920 And when
00:41:13.200 you see that,
00:41:14.180 that gives
00:41:14.600 you faith in
00:41:15.360 the whole thing.
00:41:16.140 So it's a
00:41:16.600 very important
00:41:17.020 process.
00:41:17.540 If you want
00:41:17.880 to be a
00:41:18.140 good patriot,
00:41:19.340 good citizen,
00:41:20.480 do jury duty
00:41:21.900 at least once.
00:41:23.180 You've got to
00:41:23.880 experience it.
00:41:26.080 But anyway,
00:41:26.740 you put me
00:41:27.280 on that jury
00:41:27.880 and I
00:41:28.520 wouldn't give
00:41:28.900 a fuck
00:41:29.400 what the
00:41:29.740 Constitution
00:41:30.120 said.
00:41:31.380 I wouldn't
00:41:32.220 care what
00:41:32.700 the law
00:41:33.160 said.
00:41:33.660 I wouldn't
00:41:34.040 care how
00:41:34.580 many angry
00:41:35.360 jurors there
00:41:36.040 were who
00:41:36.480 waited too
00:41:36.940 long.
00:41:37.900 There is
00:41:38.320 no way,
00:41:39.760 no way,
00:41:41.140 I would
00:41:41.580 have allowed
00:41:43.120 this 15
00:41:44.620 year old
00:41:45.040 girl who
00:41:45.560 ended her
00:41:46.180 own horror
00:41:46.760 by stabbing
00:41:47.500 to death
00:41:47.920 the fucker
00:41:48.880 who had
00:41:49.180 raped her.
00:41:50.280 I would
00:41:50.860 give her
00:41:51.200 an award.
00:41:52.460 There's no
00:41:53.080 way.
00:41:54.160 You could
00:41:54.640 not torture
00:41:55.300 me enough
00:41:55.880 to vote
00:41:57.000 guilty on
00:41:57.500 this case.
00:41:58.000 Am I
00:41:59.520 wrong?
00:42:00.780 How many
00:42:01.420 of you
00:42:02.540 would allow
00:42:03.300 her to
00:42:03.700 be convicted?
00:42:08.140 Yeah.
00:42:09.120 How did
00:42:09.660 they find
00:42:10.040 12 people
00:42:10.620 who were
00:42:10.920 willing to
00:42:11.320 do this?
00:42:12.460 And I
00:42:12.680 think the
00:42:13.000 answer is,
00:42:14.260 so here's
00:42:14.720 the answer.
00:42:16.160 Once you
00:42:16.800 get in that
00:42:17.300 situation,
00:42:18.620 you take it
00:42:19.660 so seriously
00:42:20.600 that you
00:42:21.840 do end up
00:42:22.640 respecting the
00:42:23.660 system over
00:42:24.260 the person.
00:42:25.840 And I
00:42:26.100 think that's
00:42:26.460 what happened.
00:42:27.640 I think the
00:42:28.140 people who
00:42:28.520 were there
00:42:28.720 respected the
00:42:29.540 system.
00:42:30.760 And I
00:42:31.140 don't hate
00:42:31.600 that.
00:42:32.560 I don't
00:42:33.220 hate that
00:42:33.760 because I
00:42:34.360 like them
00:42:34.740 respecting that
00:42:35.440 system.
00:42:36.400 But it
00:42:37.120 cost her
00:42:38.640 some justice.
00:42:40.420 This was
00:42:40.720 not justice.
00:42:42.480 Was not
00:42:43.200 justice.
00:42:45.060 All right.
00:42:46.840 CNN is
00:42:47.540 reporting that
00:42:48.040 more than
00:42:48.740 half of the
00:42:49.280 GOP Senate
00:42:49.920 candidates
00:42:50.520 doubted the
00:42:52.640 2020 election.
00:42:54.540 That sounds
00:42:54.980 about right.
00:42:56.640 Half of them
00:42:57.200 doubted it.
00:42:57.760 But again,
00:42:59.680 they didn't
00:43:00.140 use the
00:43:00.460 word denier.
00:43:02.580 I think
00:43:03.240 doubt is
00:43:03.760 fair.
00:43:05.720 Don't you
00:43:06.320 think?
00:43:07.000 I think
00:43:07.480 people can
00:43:07.940 have doubt
00:43:08.480 about
00:43:08.920 institutions
00:43:09.580 which are
00:43:10.180 part of a
00:43:11.120 system which
00:43:11.940 is entirely
00:43:12.640 non-credible.
00:43:18.880 I don't know.
00:43:19.620 I'm not
00:43:19.900 worried about
00:43:20.340 that.
00:43:21.880 I'm not
00:43:22.500 worried about
00:43:23.020 half of them
00:43:23.880 doubting an
00:43:24.760 election.
00:43:25.040 Are you?
00:43:29.720 Does that
00:43:30.260 bother anybody
00:43:30.840 that half
00:43:31.520 of those
00:43:31.800 candidates
00:43:32.240 doubted the
00:43:33.080 2020 election?
00:43:35.140 That doesn't
00:43:35.760 bother me at
00:43:36.180 all.
00:43:39.040 Yeah,
00:43:39.460 not at all.
00:43:44.340 There was a
00:43:45.180 hilarious
00:43:45.680 trending thing.
00:43:48.200 Erin Burnett
00:43:48.940 from CNN,
00:43:49.760 her name was
00:43:50.260 trending on
00:43:50.860 Twitter.
00:43:51.960 So I thought,
00:43:52.700 oh, let's
00:43:53.080 see what this
00:43:53.480 is.
00:43:54.340 And I go
00:43:54.740 there and
00:43:55.260 it was,
00:43:57.180 she was
00:43:58.660 trending because
00:43:59.500 she was
00:43:59.900 talking about
00:44:00.520 the Hunter
00:44:01.100 Biden laptop
00:44:02.440 and how it
00:44:04.240 wasn't Russian
00:44:05.220 disinformation.
00:44:08.080 And, you
00:44:08.420 know,
00:44:08.580 basically she
00:44:09.360 told the
00:44:10.380 story the
00:44:11.700 way you
00:44:12.020 know the
00:44:12.380 story.
00:44:13.680 What do
00:44:14.240 you think
00:44:14.540 CNN viewers
00:44:15.500 did when
00:44:16.740 Erin Burnett
00:44:17.500 accurately told
00:44:18.720 a story of
00:44:19.520 great importance
00:44:20.280 to the
00:44:20.660 country?
00:44:20.940 how did
00:44:22.440 the CNN
00:44:22.880 viewers
00:44:23.500 handle an
00:44:25.760 objective
00:44:26.260 reporting of
00:44:27.300 true news
00:44:28.060 that is
00:44:29.140 important to
00:44:29.700 the country?
00:44:31.460 Re,
00:44:32.780 re,
00:44:33.940 I'm never
00:44:34.800 watching this
00:44:35.420 channel again.
00:44:37.280 And you
00:44:38.440 have to read
00:44:39.060 the comments
00:44:39.740 to even know
00:44:41.460 that these
00:44:41.860 people exist.
00:44:43.040 And when I
00:44:43.360 say these
00:44:43.800 people,
00:44:44.980 I mean,
00:44:45.540 apparently,
00:44:47.040 this is just
00:44:47.660 my interpretation
00:44:48.320 from the
00:44:48.900 comments,
00:44:50.300 there were
00:44:51.700 quite a
00:44:52.620 number of
00:44:53.060 people who
00:44:53.500 watched CNN
00:44:54.140 who were
00:44:55.560 not aware
00:44:56.300 that it
00:44:58.140 was trying
00:44:58.620 to be
00:44:58.960 news.
00:45:02.460 I don't
00:45:03.120 think they
00:45:03.480 understood
00:45:03.840 that.
00:45:04.780 I think
00:45:05.240 they understood
00:45:05.800 it as a
00:45:06.540 team member.
00:45:08.500 And as
00:45:08.900 soon as the
00:45:09.400 team member
00:45:09.960 started giving
00:45:10.680 news,
00:45:11.600 they were
00:45:11.720 like,
00:45:11.940 whoa,
00:45:12.860 that's not
00:45:13.260 what we
00:45:13.560 signed up
00:45:14.020 for.
00:45:14.920 We signed
00:45:15.600 up for you
00:45:15.960 to be on
00:45:16.240 our team.
00:45:16.660 Why are
00:45:17.960 you on
00:45:18.200 the other
00:45:18.440 team?
00:45:19.180 And if
00:45:19.400 you look
00:45:20.200 at the
00:45:20.500 comments,
00:45:21.680 it's entirely
00:45:22.380 clear that
00:45:23.740 the reason
00:45:24.340 they're angry
00:45:25.000 is that
00:45:27.040 their team
00:45:27.480 isn't being
00:45:27.940 supported.
00:45:29.220 They're not
00:45:29.940 angry about
00:45:30.520 the accuracy
00:45:31.140 of the
00:45:31.500 news.
00:45:32.500 They're not
00:45:33.200 complaining
00:45:33.640 that it's
00:45:33.960 not true.
00:45:35.240 And they're
00:45:35.560 not complaining
00:45:36.160 that it's
00:45:36.460 not important.
00:45:37.780 They're only
00:45:38.340 complaining that
00:45:39.580 they didn't
00:45:39.960 back their
00:45:40.420 side.
00:45:41.800 And they're
00:45:42.160 acting like
00:45:42.620 that's the
00:45:43.020 job of a
00:45:43.560 news entity.
00:45:45.420 But, you
00:45:46.640 know, that's
00:45:47.000 CNN's own
00:45:47.600 fault, right?
00:45:48.780 CNN created
00:45:49.840 a product that
00:45:51.720 even the people
00:45:52.480 who watched
00:45:53.000 it knew was
00:45:54.620 not news.
00:45:56.220 Think about
00:45:56.840 that.
00:45:58.020 Their own
00:45:58.560 viewers knew
00:45:59.100 it wasn't
00:45:59.460 news.
00:46:00.240 I wasn't
00:46:00.660 sure that
00:46:01.020 was true.
00:46:02.260 But now we
00:46:02.920 have something
00:46:03.600 like confirmation.
00:46:05.200 Didn't you
00:46:05.460 always wonder?
00:46:06.220 Didn't you
00:46:06.840 always wonder
00:46:07.480 if CNN
00:46:08.140 viewers,
00:46:09.040 let's say
00:46:09.460 all of
00:46:10.020 them,
00:46:10.860 believed they
00:46:11.580 were watching
00:46:12.100 actual news?
00:46:13.020 But it
00:46:14.560 turns out
00:46:14.920 that they
00:46:15.220 knew they
00:46:15.500 weren't
00:46:15.700 watching actual
00:46:16.300 news.
00:46:16.620 They knew
00:46:16.860 it was
00:46:17.080 just team
00:46:17.620 play.
00:46:19.220 Now you
00:46:19.740 see the
00:46:20.060 same thing
00:46:20.520 with Fox
00:46:21.220 News.
00:46:22.300 So I'm
00:46:22.820 going to
00:46:23.380 burn all
00:46:23.880 of my
00:46:24.120 bridges
00:46:24.360 here.
00:46:25.680 When Fox
00:46:26.580 News reports
00:46:27.300 a story
00:46:27.860 down the
00:46:28.620 middle,
00:46:29.760 you see
00:46:30.400 all the
00:46:30.680 screaming.
00:46:32.460 People go
00:46:33.180 nuts.
00:46:34.000 Oh no,
00:46:34.800 that was an
00:46:35.280 objective
00:46:35.680 statement there.
00:46:36.480 I can't
00:46:36.780 handle that.
00:46:37.620 I will
00:46:37.940 never watch
00:46:38.480 your network
00:46:38.960 again.
00:46:40.100 So just
00:46:40.940 like the
00:46:41.740 Fox News
00:46:42.280 viewers,
00:46:42.640 there's no
00:46:43.080 difference.
00:46:44.040 The CNN
00:46:44.480 viewers are
00:46:45.160 watching what
00:46:46.140 should be
00:46:47.440 news.
00:46:48.460 They're just
00:46:49.120 watching it
00:46:49.640 as a team
00:46:50.780 member.
00:46:53.620 This is a
00:46:58.100 funny story.
00:46:59.560 I forget
00:47:00.220 where I saw
00:47:00.640 this.
00:47:01.120 I wish I
00:47:01.540 remembered.
00:47:02.660 But apparently
00:47:03.300 there are
00:47:03.840 phrases that
00:47:04.820 are turning
00:47:05.240 off younger
00:47:05.920 job seekers.
00:47:09.780 I don't
00:47:11.380 know if
00:47:11.640 this is true
00:47:12.180 at all.
00:47:12.640 because everybody
00:47:14.520 always complains
00:47:15.260 about the
00:47:15.620 next generation.
00:47:16.960 So take it
00:47:17.520 with a grain
00:47:17.920 of salt how
00:47:18.440 much of
00:47:18.720 this is true.
00:47:20.100 But anecdotally
00:47:20.860 it's just
00:47:21.240 funny so I'm
00:47:21.840 going to
00:47:21.920 report it
00:47:22.340 like it's
00:47:22.700 true.
00:47:24.500 But apparently
00:47:25.280 the young
00:47:25.800 people who
00:47:26.300 are not so
00:47:26.900 big on
00:47:27.500 working too
00:47:28.620 hard,
00:47:29.660 they're looking
00:47:30.160 for more of
00:47:30.680 a work-life
00:47:31.340 balance.
00:47:32.160 Nothing wrong
00:47:32.580 with that.
00:47:35.260 There's some
00:47:35.920 phrases that
00:47:36.660 they see in
00:47:37.080 job postings
00:47:38.820 that scare
00:47:39.680 them away.
00:47:41.560 So here's
00:47:42.240 some of the
00:47:43.480 things you
00:47:43.840 shouldn't put
00:47:44.320 in your job
00:47:44.880 posting if
00:47:45.900 you want
00:47:46.220 anybody under
00:47:47.040 30 to
00:47:47.600 apply.
00:47:50.140 You don't
00:47:50.980 want to say
00:47:51.480 must handle
00:47:52.140 stress well.
00:47:52.880 you don't
00:47:56.400 want to say
00:47:56.880 willing to
00:47:57.900 wear many
00:47:58.440 hats.
00:48:00.760 You don't
00:48:01.460 want to say
00:48:02.080 responsibilities
00:48:03.880 may include
00:48:04.860 those outside
00:48:06.200 the job
00:48:06.640 description.
00:48:08.680 And here's
00:48:09.400 one that's
00:48:09.780 funny.
00:48:10.720 We're one
00:48:11.220 big happy
00:48:11.720 family.
00:48:16.760 And the
00:48:17.520 reason given
00:48:18.180 for why
00:48:20.100 young people
00:48:21.080 don't want
00:48:21.560 to see
00:48:21.840 we're one
00:48:22.340 big happy
00:48:22.820 family because
00:48:24.860 it suggests
00:48:26.160 they're going
00:48:26.480 to abuse
00:48:26.880 you.
00:48:34.220 One big
00:48:34.980 happy family
00:48:35.660 makes young
00:48:36.500 people think
00:48:37.040 that that's
00:48:38.100 a signal for
00:48:38.700 abuse.
00:48:41.500 Maybe it
00:48:42.220 is.
00:48:42.500 That's even
00:48:42.860 funnier.
00:48:44.800 Another one
00:48:45.580 is applicants
00:48:46.800 should be
00:48:47.460 humble.
00:48:48.400 Have you
00:48:48.720 ever heard
00:48:49.060 that before?
00:48:50.880 Whoever
00:48:51.400 says applicants
00:48:52.240 should be
00:48:52.700 humble.
00:48:53.060 I've never
00:48:53.340 heard that
00:48:53.760 one.
00:48:54.760 But I
00:48:55.440 wouldn't work
00:48:56.380 at a job
00:48:56.820 that required
00:48:57.360 it.
00:48:58.440 Because I
00:48:59.380 don't think
00:48:59.940 I could pull
00:49:01.560 it off.
00:49:06.020 All right.
00:49:07.360 Also,
00:49:07.820 bad ones are
00:49:09.060 looking for
00:49:09.640 self-starters.
00:49:13.640 Nobody wants
00:49:14.400 to be a
00:49:14.720 self-starter.
00:49:15.300 Okay, this
00:49:20.860 was a survey
00:49:22.580 by payroll
00:49:23.500 processor
00:49:24.100 paychecks.
00:49:26.400 Oh, God,
00:49:27.180 that's funny.
00:49:27.560 So, do you
00:49:38.140 remember when
00:49:38.800 Hillary Clinton's
00:49:40.560 lawyer,
00:49:41.980 Sussman,
00:49:43.020 he was
00:49:43.940 accused of
00:49:44.780 lying to
00:49:45.420 the FBI
00:49:46.100 in saying
00:49:48.020 that,
00:49:49.040 no, I'm
00:49:50.440 not high in
00:49:51.280 case you're
00:49:51.580 wondering.
00:49:52.420 He was
00:49:53.020 accused of
00:49:53.400 lying to the
00:49:53.880 FBI and
00:49:54.940 saying that
00:49:55.380 he was not
00:49:56.020 working for
00:49:56.620 Clinton when
00:49:58.260 he brought
00:49:58.640 them information
00:49:59.720 that was
00:50:00.320 maybe bad
00:50:00.980 about Trump.
00:50:02.840 And do you
00:50:03.300 remember he
00:50:03.680 went, so
00:50:04.660 he was
00:50:05.740 taken to
00:50:07.580 trial.
00:50:09.220 Do you
00:50:09.560 know what
00:50:10.120 happened in
00:50:10.560 the trial?
00:50:11.800 How many
00:50:12.240 of you know
00:50:12.940 what happened
00:50:14.080 with Sussman?
00:50:14.780 Don't look
00:50:15.140 it up.
00:50:16.220 And don't
00:50:16.500 say the
00:50:16.820 answer.
00:50:17.120 Just say
00:50:17.400 if you
00:50:17.640 know.
00:50:18.600 Do you
00:50:18.820 know what
00:50:19.620 the end
00:50:20.020 of the
00:50:20.240 result was?
00:50:24.180 Yeah,
00:50:24.500 D.C.
00:50:24.920 jury is
00:50:25.240 part of
00:50:25.500 it.
00:50:25.640 It's a
00:50:25.940 hint.
00:50:27.300 I just
00:50:27.500 wondered
00:50:27.740 how, oh
00:50:28.780 most of
00:50:29.080 you knew.
00:50:30.040 Yeah, okay.
00:50:31.220 Most of
00:50:31.540 the people
00:50:31.740 are locals
00:50:32.160 now.
00:50:33.000 On
00:50:33.320 YouTube, you
00:50:33.960 see yes
00:50:34.320 and no.
00:50:34.740 The answer
00:50:35.240 is that he
00:50:35.840 was acquitted.
00:50:37.860 That's it.
00:50:38.480 He didn't,
00:50:39.160 according to
00:50:39.680 the legal
00:50:40.060 system, he
00:50:41.240 is a person
00:50:41.800 who did
00:50:42.280 not commit
00:50:42.840 a crime.
00:50:43.860 It wasn't
00:50:44.300 a hung
00:50:44.580 jury.
00:50:46.140 It wasn't
00:50:46.560 a hung
00:50:46.880 jury.
00:50:47.420 Twelve
00:50:47.780 jurors said
00:50:48.480 no, he
00:50:48.800 did not
00:50:49.120 commit a
00:50:49.480 crime.
00:50:50.480 Did you
00:50:50.820 see that
00:50:51.200 coming?
00:50:52.560 And I
00:50:53.080 think it
00:50:53.280 had to do
00:50:53.660 with the
00:50:53.920 fact that he
00:50:54.500 was in
00:50:54.800 the room
00:50:55.140 with only
00:50:55.520 one person
00:50:56.300 when the
00:50:59.040 alleged claim
00:51:00.700 was made.
00:51:01.780 So I
00:51:02.300 believe his
00:51:02.760 defense was
00:51:03.520 I say it
00:51:05.220 didn't happen,
00:51:05.940 the one
00:51:06.240 person in
00:51:06.620 the room
00:51:06.820 says it
00:51:07.240 did,
00:51:08.040 that's your
00:51:08.560 whole case.
00:51:11.080 And if I
00:51:11.840 were on the
00:51:12.220 jury and that
00:51:12.900 was the
00:51:13.240 evidence, the
00:51:14.320 one person in
00:51:14.980 the room said
00:51:15.460 it happened,
00:51:16.680 the other
00:51:17.040 person in
00:51:17.460 the room said
00:51:17.880 it didn't
00:51:18.180 happen, I
00:51:20.160 would have
00:51:20.940 acquitted.
00:51:21.880 Wouldn't
00:51:22.140 you?
00:51:22.300 Now this
00:51:23.900 isn't like
00:51:24.420 the woman
00:51:25.540 who stabbed
00:51:26.280 her rapist
00:51:27.100 to death,
00:51:28.020 because that
00:51:28.480 was justice.
00:51:29.700 Killing that
00:51:30.200 guy was
00:51:30.520 justice.
00:51:31.400 But if it's
00:51:32.140 a little
00:51:32.360 paperworky lie
00:51:34.120 kind of a
00:51:34.680 thing, I
00:51:35.700 think I
00:51:36.040 would favor
00:51:36.660 the system
00:51:37.380 over punishing
00:51:39.920 an individual.
00:51:41.520 And the
00:51:42.180 system is
00:51:42.740 pretty clear.
00:51:43.420 You need
00:51:43.760 evidence for
00:51:44.440 crimes.
00:51:46.140 They didn't
00:51:46.720 have it.
00:51:47.080 They had
00:51:48.800 one witness,
00:51:49.580 but it
00:51:49.760 wasn't
00:51:50.000 enough, so
00:51:50.720 he walked.
00:51:54.580 But now
00:51:55.260 Durham is
00:51:56.120 winding down,
00:51:56.980 it looks like,
00:51:57.640 and it looks
00:51:58.220 like there
00:51:58.540 won't be any
00:51:59.180 attempted
00:52:00.300 prosecutions.
00:52:02.540 So did
00:52:03.480 you think
00:52:03.780 that Durham
00:52:04.220 was going
00:52:04.620 to uncover
00:52:05.220 the deep
00:52:05.720 state and
00:52:06.440 find all
00:52:07.860 the bad
00:52:08.220 things they
00:52:08.640 did?
00:52:09.580 Looks like
00:52:10.400 he may
00:52:10.780 have found
00:52:11.360 out a lot
00:52:11.760 of information,
00:52:13.100 but the
00:52:14.160 early signals
00:52:15.040 could be
00:52:15.420 wrong,
00:52:15.900 could be
00:52:16.280 wrong.
00:52:17.080 But the
00:52:17.320 early indications
00:52:18.080 are nobody's
00:52:18.780 going to get
00:52:19.100 charged with
00:52:19.620 anything
00:52:19.900 additionally.
00:52:22.440 So, but
00:52:25.300 in the
00:52:26.160 process, they
00:52:26.840 discovered that
00:52:27.720 Igor
00:52:28.680 Denchenko, who
00:52:31.420 worked with
00:52:32.280 Christopher Steele
00:52:33.820 to develop the
00:52:34.660 Russia collusion
00:52:35.340 stuff.
00:52:36.720 So, Christopher
00:52:37.620 Steele talked
00:52:38.320 to some
00:52:39.920 Russians.
00:52:41.260 One of the
00:52:41.780 Russians he
00:52:42.280 talked to, to
00:52:42.920 get information
00:52:43.600 that was fake,
00:52:45.420 but it was put
00:52:46.240 in the Steele
00:52:46.740 dossier to
00:52:47.580 get at
00:52:48.400 Trump, that
00:52:49.540 one of the
00:52:50.020 Russians they
00:52:50.620 talked to was
00:52:51.280 on the FBI
00:52:52.380 payroll.
00:52:57.840 We're just
00:52:58.620 finding that
00:52:59.200 out.
00:53:00.860 The Christopher
00:53:01.560 Steele source
00:53:02.480 was the FBI
00:53:03.680 itself.
00:53:06.680 Now, not
00:53:07.420 really, because
00:53:08.580 it was a paid
00:53:09.140 informant,
00:53:09.820 right?
00:53:10.060 But basically, he
00:53:14.600 got information
00:53:15.400 from the FBI
00:53:16.360 and gave it to
00:53:17.000 the FBI.
00:53:19.440 And we're just
00:53:20.280 finding that out
00:53:20.960 now.
00:53:21.920 Now, of course,
00:53:22.400 it was fake
00:53:22.840 information that
00:53:24.240 he got from the
00:53:24.940 FBI to give to
00:53:25.780 the FBI.
00:53:27.320 But that started
00:53:28.160 off the whole
00:53:28.680 thing.
00:53:31.060 Now, again,
00:53:32.360 you know, fog
00:53:32.900 of war, who
00:53:33.380 knows, maybe
00:53:33.960 some of the
00:53:34.360 details here are
00:53:35.320 exculpatory, but
00:53:36.360 that all sounds
00:53:37.640 pretty bad.
00:53:39.560 Jonathan Turley
00:53:40.280 writes about
00:53:40.840 this, so look
00:53:42.020 for Jonathan
00:53:42.680 Turley's piece
00:53:43.680 if you want to
00:53:44.840 see the smart
00:53:45.660 lawyer take on
00:53:46.380 it.
00:53:49.000 All right.
00:53:51.220 And that,
00:53:52.000 ladies and
00:53:52.380 gentlemen, brings
00:53:54.220 us to near the
00:53:54.900 conclusion of what
00:53:56.140 was the finest
00:53:56.900 live stream in
00:53:58.240 the history of
00:53:59.200 all things.
00:54:02.520 Best show
00:54:03.120 ever.
00:54:04.740 How do I feel
00:54:05.340 about, um,
00:54:07.080 Turley?
00:54:07.760 He's the best.
00:54:09.340 He does great
00:54:10.280 writing and
00:54:11.060 analysis.
00:54:14.480 Yeah, here's
00:54:15.260 another thing you
00:54:16.040 shouldn't trust.
00:54:17.880 Podesta in
00:54:18.640 charge of $300
00:54:19.640 billion in
00:54:20.680 climate stuff.
00:54:22.880 Let me give you
00:54:23.640 some optimism.
00:54:24.500 You want some
00:54:24.880 optimism?
00:54:27.360 There's one
00:54:28.800 technology that's
00:54:32.440 probably going to
00:54:33.240 be, well,
00:54:33.820 besides AI.
00:54:34.540 there's one
00:54:35.860 technology that's,
00:54:37.780 you know, there's
00:54:38.360 a lot of action
00:54:38.940 in, and it's
00:54:40.380 going to change
00:54:40.820 everything, or
00:54:42.520 not, depending on
00:54:44.380 where the
00:54:44.700 technology ends.
00:54:46.100 And that's
00:54:46.800 battery technology,
00:54:48.040 especially mass
00:54:48.940 storage, not just
00:54:50.000 for your car, but
00:54:51.360 for the network,
00:54:52.300 like, you know,
00:54:52.760 giant batteries for
00:54:53.880 storing network
00:54:55.980 power.
00:54:56.380 And it turns out
00:54:58.140 there's a bunch of
00:54:59.120 companies, and I
00:55:00.000 keep doing little
00:55:01.280 research on each
00:55:02.140 one as they pop
00:55:02.960 up.
00:55:03.820 And once you start
00:55:04.880 looking into them,
00:55:06.400 and then you also
00:55:07.480 know that part of
00:55:08.440 that infrastructure
00:55:09.380 bill that Biden
00:55:10.600 got through, a big
00:55:12.160 part of that is for
00:55:12.960 battery development.
00:55:15.320 So a big part of it
00:55:16.280 is to keep these
00:55:17.200 startups who are
00:55:18.260 making new kinds of
00:55:19.060 batteries in business.
00:55:20.020 Because the current
00:55:21.040 batteries that they
00:55:22.320 use in cars, it
00:55:24.440 looks like the
00:55:25.140 total worldwide
00:55:26.120 supply of materials
00:55:27.720 to make them is
00:55:29.080 about this big, and
00:55:31.220 the number of
00:55:32.120 electric cars that we
00:55:33.180 think we want is
00:55:34.200 this big, and
00:55:35.640 they're not even
00:55:36.040 close.
00:55:37.540 So we're like maybe
00:55:39.140 1%, something like
00:55:41.940 that, probably 1%
00:55:43.240 to 3% of the
00:55:46.720 batteries that we'll
00:55:47.500 need to have a
00:55:49.080 world is, you
00:55:50.640 know, where the
00:55:51.800 power is always on
00:55:53.000 and you're not
00:55:53.780 burning coal,
00:55:55.060 basically.
00:55:56.500 But the good news
00:55:57.720 is this.
00:55:59.180 It seems to be
00:56:00.180 well-funded.
00:56:01.900 You know, the
00:56:02.200 government's billions
00:56:03.120 are going in that
00:56:04.100 direction.
00:56:04.960 But they also have
00:56:05.940 private funding.
00:56:07.400 And a number of
00:56:08.140 these technologies
00:56:08.840 look pretty good.
00:56:10.380 Look pretty good.
00:56:10.940 So a number of
00:56:12.140 technologies have
00:56:12.940 already gotten to
00:56:14.240 the point where
00:56:14.660 they've developed a
00:56:15.600 working battery.
00:56:17.360 And from working
00:56:18.300 battery to,
00:56:19.080 you know, being
00:56:20.520 able to scale up
00:56:21.420 to make lots of
00:56:22.160 them and sell them
00:56:22.860 and stuff is a lot
00:56:23.520 of work.
00:56:24.340 So the odds of
00:56:25.340 getting from a
00:56:25.980 working prototype
00:56:27.200 to a big industry
00:56:29.420 important company
00:56:30.720 is small.
00:56:32.720 Small.
00:56:33.760 Now, everybody
00:56:34.560 who's talking about
00:56:35.240 Solyndra, here's
00:56:37.260 the difference.
00:56:39.420 If you're going to
00:56:40.160 look at the stock
00:56:40.820 market in general,
00:56:41.720 let's say as an
00:56:42.200 investor, if you're
00:56:43.440 going to pick one
00:56:44.020 stock and put your
00:56:46.060 money in it, what
00:56:47.380 is that called?
00:56:49.020 Stupid.
00:56:50.200 Stupid.
00:56:52.160 Because diversification
00:56:53.420 is sort of the only
00:56:54.360 thing that works for
00:56:55.620 investing.
00:56:56.660 So if you put all
00:56:57.620 your money in, say,
00:56:58.660 a company, like Solyndra,
00:57:01.080 that is dumb by
00:57:02.560 definition.
00:57:03.840 But if you're the
00:57:05.040 infrastructure bill,
00:57:07.380 and you freed up
00:57:08.300 billions of dollars
00:57:09.160 for the industry of
00:57:11.440 batteries, so you're
00:57:12.800 giving it to a bunch
00:57:13.760 of different companies
00:57:14.500 and you don't know
00:57:15.300 which one's going to
00:57:15.920 work, that's good
00:57:17.660 management.
00:57:19.040 That's exactly what
00:57:19.920 you should do.
00:57:20.420 That's playing by the
00:57:21.480 numbers, basically.
00:57:23.260 So, yeah, everything
00:57:24.820 you say about Solyndra,
00:57:25.920 you just forget it.
00:57:27.440 Forget it.
00:57:28.900 You know, having the
00:57:29.560 government in the
00:57:30.780 industry get too
00:57:33.120 close is a bad idea.
00:57:34.540 But funding research
00:57:36.140 into new battery types,
00:57:37.620 that's what the
00:57:38.120 government's done well
00:57:38.980 before.
00:57:40.040 Our government has
00:57:41.280 spurred industries.
00:57:42.620 We know that
00:57:43.400 works.
00:57:53.540 Be transformed by
00:57:55.260 the renewing of
00:57:55.980 your mind, huh?
00:58:00.060 Yeah, we don't, it
00:58:01.580 would be good news if
00:58:02.600 we didn't think that
00:58:03.700 money would be wasted
00:58:04.600 by political people
00:58:06.140 trying to steal it.
00:58:08.800 That's true.
00:58:10.360 What about the
00:58:11.160 WEF?
00:58:12.900 Well, what about it?
00:58:14.020 Well, Dogbert's going
00:58:14.880 after ESG, so I'm
00:58:16.700 going to go after it
00:58:17.680 on a topic level.
00:58:22.160 I do think that who
00:58:25.220 gets to make the
00:58:26.100 decisions is what all
00:58:28.680 this WEF stuff's about,
00:58:30.300 right?
00:58:31.120 And the problem is
00:58:32.240 that the WEF takes
00:58:36.520 your control away from
00:58:37.880 you and gives it to
00:58:38.840 strangers.
00:58:44.640 How long does it
00:58:45.420 take me to finish
00:58:46.260 my coffee after the
00:58:47.320 show?
00:58:47.660 I usually get, I
00:58:48.900 usually throw away
00:58:49.700 whatever's been
00:58:50.280 sitting here for too
00:58:51.100 long.
00:58:52.960 So I have coffee
00:58:54.820 most of the day
00:58:55.740 until maybe four
00:58:57.580 o'clock.
00:59:01.560 All right.
00:59:03.280 Any other, your local
00:59:05.540 paper didn't print
00:59:06.760 your ESG?
00:59:07.980 Well, I've got some
00:59:09.000 more that are not
00:59:09.580 going to get printed
00:59:10.160 too.
00:59:10.980 So I did hear that
00:59:11.760 one paper's already
00:59:12.940 canceled me.
00:59:14.380 So I want you to
00:59:15.040 know this is expensive
00:59:15.980 for me.
00:59:17.560 You know, when I said
00:59:18.380 I'd go after ESG,
00:59:20.280 I knew it wouldn't be
00:59:22.460 cheap.
00:59:23.280 I mean, it could be,
00:59:24.440 it could put me out
00:59:25.100 of business easily.
00:59:26.480 We'll see.
00:59:29.400 Yeah, somebody says
00:59:30.480 the, was it the
00:59:31.920 St. Louis Post
00:59:32.640 Dispatch canceled
00:59:34.100 me, somebody said.
00:59:36.060 But find out if it
00:59:37.460 was just for the
00:59:38.160 week of the ESG.
00:59:40.080 Because if it comes
00:59:41.400 back, they may have
00:59:42.340 just taken it out.
00:59:43.440 Did they say they
00:59:44.120 canceled it?
00:59:49.480 Did they announce
00:59:50.440 it was canceled?
00:59:52.280 They downsized.
00:59:55.340 They may have just
00:59:56.560 pulled some comics.
00:59:57.920 I don't know.
00:59:58.120 But we'll, we'll
01:00:05.140 look into that.
01:00:10.500 Keep at it.
01:00:19.080 Zero strategies.
01:00:21.740 Censoring Scott.
01:00:22.740 All right.
01:00:28.840 I think we're done
01:00:29.680 here.
01:00:31.080 Are we?
01:00:31.940 I think we are.
01:00:33.020 All right, everybody.
01:00:34.800 I have heard of
01:00:35.580 Silva Biden
01:00:36.620 Control.
01:00:38.040 We'll talk about
01:00:38.760 that later.
01:00:39.560 Bye for now.
