Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1875 Scott Adams： I Literally Just Woke Up. Lower Your Expectations

00:00:00.000 I have to warn you to lower your expectations today.

00:00:10.740 I know normally I tell you this is the highlight of civilization, the best thing that ever happened to you.

00:00:17.120 But today, honestly, it's still the best thing that's ever going to happen to you.

00:00:25.080 And I don't have anything today.

00:00:26.460 Do I know what's going to happen today?

00:00:30.000 Nope. No idea.

00:00:32.920 Will I fall asleep right in front of you?

00:00:35.260 Good chance. Good chance.

00:00:39.060 Yes, I woke up this morning and I looked at the shades.

00:00:44.740 And there was something that wasn't supposed to be happening on the other side of those shades.

00:00:48.720 Do you know what it was?

00:00:50.220 Something that never happens to me when I'm waking up.

00:00:55.060 Yeah, there was light out.

00:00:57.880 I don't wake up when the light's out.

00:01:00.740 If the sun beats me up, I've done something terribly wrong.

00:01:06.220 But how do we get things on track?

00:01:08.740 Easy.

00:01:09.140 All you need is a cup or a mug or a glass or a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:01:17.560 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:20.080 I like coffee.

00:01:21.820 I almost forgot what I like there.

00:01:23.180 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:01:34.140 And boy, do I need it today.

00:01:35.600 It's called a simultaneous sip.

00:01:38.560 Go.

00:01:38.800 Yeah, that was good.

00:01:50.140 I was just asked if I could explain how hypnosis works.

00:01:54.360 Anybody want to hear that?

00:01:58.460 How hypnosis works?

00:02:01.900 How does it work?

00:02:04.020 Would you like to be hypnotized?

00:02:05.740 Excuse me.

00:02:06.220 So, there are two ways to hypnotize people, broadly speaking.

00:02:16.900 A lot of what I say about hypnosis will be things that other people would not say.

00:02:24.120 I don't know why, but everybody might just have their own take about how to describe this thing that can't be described.

00:02:31.420 One kind of hypnosis is one person working with one person, and you tell that person to relax and sit in a comfortable place and maybe even close their eyes.

00:02:42.260 Or you might have them close their eyes during the hypnosis.

00:02:44.860 The other kind is where you're just talking to somebody, the kind I'm doing right now.

00:02:50.660 Do you think I could hypnotize you just by talking to you on this live stream?

00:02:56.120 What do you think?

00:02:57.640 Do you think I could hypnotize you without you knowing you had been hypnotized?

00:03:03.780 Of course.

00:03:05.220 But of course, there's a definitional thing, right?

00:03:08.240 So, as long as I don't say you are getting sleepy and, you know, put a little watch in front of you

00:03:14.080 and swing it back and forth, you would say to yourself, that's not hypnosis.

00:03:18.780 That's just you being persuasive.

00:03:21.080 And you would be correct.

00:03:22.520 That's exactly what it is.

00:03:24.560 So you can think of it as a continuum from most persuasive to least.

00:03:30.860 But what does it, what's the difference between just talking to somebody

00:03:33.940 and focusing an actual hypnotic session?

00:03:40.300 And the difference is, probably focus.

00:03:43.540 And that's about it.

00:03:45.800 If I'm trying to influence you verbally, some of the times you're talking, well, that's no good.

00:03:53.040 I don't need to hear you talking.

00:03:56.880 It should be more about me.

00:03:58.420 When a hypnotist is working with a subject, the subject doesn't do any talking, typically.

00:04:03.400 And the hypnotist does it all.

00:04:05.320 They also don't have any other distractions.

00:04:08.180 So it's just the two of you in the room.

00:04:09.980 Typically, you don't want to have, you know, an audience.

00:04:14.080 And so what you get when two people are doing it, and that's all they're doing, is the focus.

00:04:21.280 And it also feels like it's more important, which turns out to be an important variable to hypnosis.

00:04:30.120 If you came to get hypnotized by me, and I said, all right, we're going to do it in the living room here.

00:04:35.620 Go sit on the couch, and I'll hypnotize you.

00:04:38.480 It would work.

00:04:40.120 It would work.

00:04:40.760 But, suppose you came to my office.

00:04:45.380 There was a hypnotist's office.

00:04:47.820 And it was like a proper office, you know, in a big building.

00:04:52.140 It's got maybe a receptionist.

00:04:55.060 And you go into a room, and it's obvious that this is the hypnosis facility.

00:05:00.480 And then I come in, and I've got like a doctor's outfit on, or maybe a suit.

00:05:05.260 And I'm all professional.

00:05:07.960 Could I hypnotize you then?

00:05:09.160 Yes.

00:05:11.540 And it would be easier.

00:05:13.380 Because once I'd set up the situation, you would be hypnotized before you walked in.

00:05:18.940 You'd talk yourself into it.

00:05:20.860 You would basically be pre-hypnotized before you walked in the door.

00:05:25.260 And we learned that as hypnotists.

00:05:27.580 You learn to create an environment where the person talks themselves into it.

00:05:33.580 Very important.

00:05:34.600 It's a big part of the process.

00:05:35.580 In fact, there's something called the pre-talk, where you talk to somebody before you do the

00:05:40.500 hypnosis to tell them what to expect.

00:05:43.860 And by telling them what to expect, it sort of keeps them out of the curiosity mode and

00:05:50.760 lets them just be in the moment.

00:05:52.800 Otherwise, you're just thinking, what's going to happen now?

00:05:54.640 What am I going to do?

00:05:55.440 Does it feel different?

00:05:56.920 You'll have lots of questions, and those will be distracting.

00:05:59.800 So I answer the questions in advance.

00:06:02.980 I'm going to do that now.

00:06:07.660 The number one question people ask is, can I be hypnotized?

00:06:13.380 A lot of people say, I don't think I could be hypnotized.

00:06:16.440 And a lot of people say, there was that one person who tried, and it didn't work.

00:06:19.760 You can all be hypnotized.

00:06:24.720 You can all be hypnotized.

00:06:26.980 There's no exceptions.

00:06:28.520 There's an exception in terms of how deeply and what level you can go to, but there are

00:06:35.040 no exceptions.

00:06:36.520 If you're willing.

00:06:38.000 If you're not willing, or let's say you're mentally insane or something, that would be

00:06:41.460 harder.

00:06:41.960 If you're drunk, that's hard.

00:06:43.520 But if you're just a normal person who is willing, and you're willing to spend the time

00:06:48.900 and just sit there in a relaxed state, yeah, it works every time.

00:06:53.340 Now, it doesn't work every time to the maximum amount, so it'd be like going to the gym.

00:06:59.760 Does going to the gym work?

00:07:02.460 What would you say?

00:07:03.740 Does going to the gym work?

00:07:06.700 Well, not for everybody, right?

00:07:08.560 Some people go twice, they do the arm thing, where they're pedaling with an arm because

00:07:14.460 they don't want to stand up, and that's the last time they go.

00:07:17.940 So if you say that, does hypnosis work, it's very much like saying, does going to the gym

00:07:24.000 work?

00:07:25.360 Well, sort of yes for everyone who's serious about it, but if you're not so serious about

00:07:32.300 actually going to the gym, and you're not so serious about actually trying to experience

00:07:36.760 hypnosis, it won't happen.

00:07:38.560 About 20% of people can experience what's called the phenomenon, and I love that that's

00:07:47.700 the name for it, so we have to just call it that sometimes, the phenomenon.

00:07:52.500 Now, the phenomenon is when you can actually just see and hear things that aren't there.

00:07:57.800 Most people can do that to some extent.

00:08:01.320 For example, the most common type of induction is once I had you completely relaxed, and once

00:08:07.140 I convinced you that something was happening, I could get to that later, but there's a point

00:08:11.720 where you convince the person that you're hypnotizing that something's happening.

00:08:16.280 That's an important part of the process.

00:08:17.820 They have to feel, wait a minute, I think something's happening.

00:08:21.380 So you get that something happening thing, and then you build on it.

00:08:29.520 So you get the person to talk themselves into it, essentially.

00:08:33.540 Let me back up to that and tell you how that works.

00:08:36.200 There's a part in formal hypnosis that does not apply to just talking to people that I call

00:08:43.140 the magic trick.

00:08:45.200 So there's part that's just purely exactly what you see.

00:08:49.420 There's no tricks to it at all.

00:08:51.180 If I'm talking to you saying, you're relaxed, or whatever, that's exactly what I'm saying,

00:08:56.460 and it's exactly what I mean.

00:08:58.340 There's one exception.

00:09:00.100 It's the magic trick.

00:09:01.820 And the magic trick is where you are convinced that what is happening is because of the hypnotist.

00:09:07.420 And it might not be, but it usually is.

00:09:11.400 It just doesn't matter.

00:09:13.700 For example, I'm going to do it to you right now.

00:09:17.240 So if anybody doesn't want to be hypnotized a little bit,

00:09:21.100 you should turn off your device right now or go in the other room or something, right?

00:09:26.420 I'm going to give you the smallest, smallest little hypnotic suggestion.

00:09:31.560 It won't work for everybody, but it will work for some of you.

00:09:36.300 Some of you, it will work right away.

00:09:37.840 Some of it will take a little while.

00:09:39.060 Some of it will be a big effect.

00:09:40.560 Some of it will be a small effect.

00:09:49.160 Excuse me.

00:09:55.760 I overslept.

00:09:56.680 Now, typically, typically, with, let's say, hundreds of you watching,

00:10:05.560 probably, if hundreds were watching, maybe three or four of you just had to yawn.

00:10:12.900 Did anybody have to yawn or fight a yawn just then?

00:10:16.620 Anybody?

00:10:18.120 Did you feel any little draw?

00:10:22.880 Well, yeah, okay.

00:10:23.680 So some of you did.

00:10:25.500 So here's the other lesson of hypnosis.

00:10:28.260 There's no such thing as everybody acting the same.

00:10:32.140 So a big part of why you have to do it in person and why it doesn't work as well,

00:10:36.640 if it's in recorded form or in written form,

00:10:40.060 is you have to look for the feedback.

00:10:42.820 If I know it's working, I say, oh, that worked, and then I'll build on it.

00:10:46.500 If it doesn't work, then I have to go back and get a magic trick that does.

00:10:51.500 So the yawn was a magic trick.

00:10:53.540 It's not one that's used in hypnosis, by the way.

00:10:55.700 No hypnotist uses a yawn.

00:10:57.840 I just did that because it was easy.

00:10:59.620 I knew it would work.

00:11:00.740 I could have told you that you're going to blink more.

00:11:06.920 I could have told you that you need to lick your lips and swallow.

00:11:13.940 I could have told you you need to clear your throat.

00:11:16.500 I could have told you that you're thinking about something that it was just a guess.

00:11:25.840 But if I got it right, you'd say, oh, something's happening.

00:11:28.700 How did you know I was thinking about that?

00:11:30.820 So you see, all of these, they're all different things,

00:11:33.240 from the yawn to guessing what you're thinking,

00:11:36.080 but they all have that same quality.

00:11:38.620 You think, and maybe you're right,

00:11:41.660 but you think it was caused by the hypnotist.

00:11:44.960 So the moment you know that I'm causing something to happen in your mind or your body,

00:11:50.500 you just open the door.

00:11:54.560 So that's the point where I know, oh, okay, you just handed me the keys.

00:11:58.420 I now have the user interface.

00:12:01.340 If I can't get the magic trick to work, it's because you're resisting.

00:12:06.700 Now, not every magic trick, as I call it, is going to work with every person.

00:12:11.060 The yawn worked on some of you.

00:12:13.460 Some of you, I would have told you that your eyelids are getting heavier,

00:12:18.060 and you feel like you're going to blink more often.

00:12:20.060 That's the one I use the most.

00:12:21.100 So here's how it works.

00:12:23.160 You're sitting there, and I say to you,

00:12:25.400 and I'll say it now, this will affect some of you at home.

00:12:28.300 I'll say, did you know that it actually takes muscles to keep your eyes open?

00:12:33.300 And you'll be thinking to yourself, does it really?

00:12:36.840 I suppose it does, but it's so easy.

00:12:39.480 It's so easy, you don't really think about it, do you?

00:12:42.200 That it actually takes a muscle to keep your eye open.

00:12:44.800 And those muscles can get tired.

00:12:46.380 Sometimes you need to blink just to relax.

00:12:50.440 In fact, you blink during the day anyway, right?

00:12:53.580 So if you started blinking a little bit more often right now,

00:12:58.700 well, that wouldn't be unusual, would it?

00:13:01.180 Because once you start thinking about those eyes, they are pretty heavy.

00:13:05.960 And when they start blinking, that's normal.

00:13:10.740 You blink all day long, you don't really think about it.

00:13:12.860 But right now, as you're relaxing, and you're going into a complete, relaxed state,

00:13:20.340 you might find that your eyes blink a little bit more often.

00:13:24.040 And as they blink, you'll find that you can actually feel their weight for the first time.

00:13:29.840 You've never really felt their weight before, have you?

00:13:32.620 But when you blink, you feel that when you bring them back up,

00:13:38.300 it's imperceptible just a little bit.

00:13:40.300 There's a little bit of weight you can feel on your eyes.

00:13:42.940 And that weight will start increasing because it's a muscle.

00:13:45.920 It's going to get tired.

00:13:47.180 The more you blink, the more tired it's going to be.

00:13:49.620 And as your eyes blink, they might not open up entirely after every blink.

00:13:56.120 In the beginning, they'll open up completely.

00:13:58.300 But with each blink, and as you relax, and as those muscles start to relax,

00:14:03.520 you'll notice that you open up your eyes maybe three-quarters of the way.

00:14:07.180 Maybe halfway.

00:14:09.140 And then you'll feel, eventually, and it's starting to happen pretty quickly,

00:14:14.980 for some of you very quickly, and for some of you take just a moment longer.

00:14:19.340 But you'll feel that you would feel better if the eyes just completely relaxed,

00:14:26.580 and they just closed.

00:14:28.420 But you could feel them close as if they're closing on their own.

00:14:33.220 You could divorce your consciousness from your eyes.

00:14:36.320 Just let your eyes be what they want to do.

00:14:39.660 And what they want to do right now is relax.

00:14:42.780 And as you feel your eyes blinking more and more,

00:14:46.060 and then eventually blink until they close,

00:14:49.540 you can just let it close.

00:14:52.240 You can just allow your eyes to drift close and stay closed.

00:14:56.100 And when you do, whether you've done it yet or you're about to do it,

00:15:01.780 once your eyes are closed,

00:15:03.840 you'll find that a deep sense of relaxation comes over you.

00:15:10.340 And if your feet are both on the floor,

00:15:14.120 and they should be,

00:15:14.960 if you have your legs crossed, uncross them,

00:15:18.440 put both feet flat on the floor.

00:15:20.120 Make sure you're sitting upright in a position which you wouldn't fall asleep.

00:15:27.580 Comfortable chair, sitting upright.

00:15:30.280 Make sure your arms are resting or hanging.

00:15:33.640 Ideally, they would be resting on a surface,

00:15:36.440 let's say the arms of the chair, if you have those.

00:15:39.100 But just let them hang.

00:15:40.000 Now, with your eyes closed,

00:15:44.480 feel your breathing.

00:15:47.240 Just think about your breathing for a moment.

00:15:50.320 And just feel it.

00:15:51.960 Feel your inhale.

00:15:54.160 And take a little extra inhale.

00:15:56.900 Just pause for just a moment, as long as you want.

00:15:59.900 And then a nice, long exhale.

00:16:01.700 And when you're done with the first one,

00:16:06.560 do a second one.

00:16:08.780 Big inhale.

00:16:10.380 Long exhale.

00:16:11.440 At whatever pace you like.

00:16:14.620 Now, think about your right arm.

00:16:19.860 Just feel it.

00:16:21.360 Just take your consciousness and move it to your right arm.

00:16:24.480 It feels kind of heavy, like a big weight.

00:16:27.820 Just laying on the arm of the chair,

00:16:29.760 or just hanging down, wherever it is.

00:16:32.160 And you might notice that the weight of one arm,

00:16:36.820 your right arm,

00:16:38.800 starts to be a little bit heavier than your left arm.

00:16:43.260 Isn't that interesting?

00:16:45.620 Your right arm is getting heavier,

00:16:47.800 and you feel the weight from your left arm

00:16:49.800 actually start to transfer.

00:16:52.540 And when you can feel that difference,

00:16:55.100 when you can actually start to feel the difference in the weight

00:16:58.220 between your right arm and your left arm,

00:17:02.140 you might actually eventually feel that left arm so light

00:17:06.180 that it would start to float.

00:17:08.780 But not yet.

00:17:12.560 But not yet.

00:17:14.580 Too soon.

00:17:16.620 You're going to keep feeling that left arm getting lighter,

00:17:19.620 and the right arm getting heavier,

00:17:21.280 while I take you through this imaginary scene.

00:17:28.600 Imagine that you're in a room with nothing.

00:17:31.480 It's not exactly dark.

00:17:35.440 It's darkish.

00:17:37.640 But you can see,

00:17:39.100 and you can see there's nothing.

00:17:40.840 There are no walls.

00:17:42.260 There's nothing.

00:17:43.900 And then suddenly, in front of you,

00:17:46.400 there appears a stairway down.

00:17:50.400 And you look down the stairway,

00:17:51.860 and you see that there's something interesting about these stairs.

00:17:56.440 On each step,

00:17:58.560 it has some words.

00:18:01.760 And the words are the same.

00:18:03.620 Every step has the same word.

00:18:05.940 And the word is

00:18:07.040 deeper.

00:18:11.120 And you feel yourself drawn to the top of the stairs,

00:18:13.420 and you step on the top step,

00:18:15.420 and you feel

00:18:16.120 deeper.

00:18:18.220 And you take another step,

00:18:20.880 and you go

00:18:21.360 deeper.

00:18:23.480 And you feel more relaxed.

00:18:25.860 And with each step,

00:18:27.480 now you're taking a step

00:18:28.720 at a time,

00:18:29.680 on your own.

00:18:31.080 And with each step,

00:18:32.020 you feel yourself getting

00:18:32.960 more relaxed,

00:18:35.140 more comfortable,

00:18:37.660 happier,

00:18:38.860 and

00:18:40.400 deeper.

00:18:42.120 Now you're about a quarter of the way down,

00:18:44.000 and a quarter of the way deeper than you were before.

00:18:46.140 And with each step,

00:18:47.400 you go deeper,

00:18:48.220 and now there's just a few more steps

00:18:50.880 to the bottom.

00:18:53.300 And you take them a little bit slowly now,

00:18:55.700 because you feel yourself

00:18:57.720 getting more tired,

00:19:00.580 and deeper.

00:19:02.540 And those last few steps

00:19:04.080 are almost like you're

00:19:05.660 moving through wind or

00:19:07.180 water.

00:19:08.840 Slower now.

00:19:11.040 Deeper.

00:19:11.460 deeper.

00:19:11.960 And now the last two steps.

00:19:16.600 Deeper.

00:19:20.200 And deeper.

00:19:22.140 And as you come off the bottom of the stairs,

00:19:24.500 you can

00:19:24.920 barely walk,

00:19:27.560 not because you can't,

00:19:29.480 but because you're so relaxed,

00:19:31.740 you have no reason.

00:19:33.920 And then,

00:19:34.920 appearing in front of you,

00:19:36.940 you see an escalator.

00:19:41.300 And the escalator is going down as well.

00:19:44.420 And you see yourself float onto the top of the escalator,

00:19:47.440 and you feel yourself start to go down.

00:19:49.920 And there,

00:19:50.460 written on the sides of the escalator,

00:19:52.160 on the little wall below the railing,

00:19:53.900 you see a word coming up

00:19:55.740 as you descend.

00:19:57.980 And as you get deeper,

00:19:59.980 and as you get more and more relaxed.

00:20:03.200 And that word is

00:20:04.560 also

00:20:06.640 deeper.

00:20:10.080 And as you

00:20:10.900 float down

00:20:12.200 the escalator,

00:20:14.640 and there's nothing else there,

00:20:16.220 just the escalator and just you,

00:20:18.340 you're getting

00:20:19.320 more and more relaxed,

00:20:21.500 and deeper.

00:20:23.900 And as you reach

00:20:24.920 the bottom of the escalator,

00:20:26.100 and you float off,

00:20:28.080 in front of you

00:20:29.060 appears

00:20:29.520 an elevator door.

00:20:32.320 And you're

00:20:33.220 literally

00:20:33.800 floating

00:20:34.500 toward the door.

00:20:37.060 Door slides open.

00:20:39.480 You find yourself

00:20:40.220 floating inside

00:20:41.020 and

00:20:41.300 turning around.

00:20:43.120 You watch the door

00:20:43.920 close.

00:20:45.580 You see the buttons

00:20:46.660 on the wall,

00:20:47.840 except they're not like

00:20:48.560 regular buttons

00:20:49.220 for regular buildings.

00:20:51.140 There's only one button.

00:20:52.680 It's got an arrow,

00:20:53.500 and it points down.

00:20:55.760 And it's labeled

00:20:56.860 deeper.

00:21:00.820 And you feel yourself

00:21:01.800 touching the button

00:21:02.920 almost as if your arm

00:21:04.100 was acting on its own.

00:21:06.460 It was your right arm,

00:21:07.620 the heavy one.

00:21:08.700 Your light arm

00:21:09.600 is still getting lighter.

00:21:11.280 And as the elevator

00:21:15.260 starts to go down,

00:21:16.140 you feel it.

00:21:17.080 You feel yourself

00:21:17.780 first getting lighter.

00:21:19.280 Then you feel

00:21:19.720 the weight of the elevator

00:21:20.720 evening out.

00:21:24.700 And then as it comes

00:21:25.640 to a stop,

00:21:26.180 you feel yourself

00:21:26.720 momentarily getting

00:21:27.620 heavier.

00:21:29.620 But just as the elevator

00:21:31.360 stops,

00:21:32.360 and you reach

00:21:33.040 your heaviest,

00:21:33.720 it reverses.

00:21:37.580 Your weight does,

00:21:38.900 not the elevator.

00:21:40.780 And you find yourself

00:21:41.780 lifting up off the floor

00:21:43.120 of the elevator,

00:21:45.260 floating.

00:21:47.480 And you float out

00:21:48.460 of the elevator,

00:21:49.140 and there,

00:21:49.460 hanging in front of you

00:21:50.280 is a giant

00:21:50.920 pendulum.

00:21:53.660 And the pendulum

00:21:54.500 is going from

00:21:55.360 left to right.

00:21:56.160 And as it goes

00:21:58.100 from left to right,

00:21:59.700 there's some words

00:22:00.700 that float

00:22:02.440 at the highest point

00:22:04.600 on the left

00:22:05.160 of the pendulum,

00:22:05.900 and the highest point

00:22:06.760 on the right.

00:22:08.400 And it's the same word.

00:22:11.720 Deeper.

00:22:13.500 And as you watch

00:22:14.260 the pendulum

00:22:14.740 go to the top left,

00:22:17.280 deeper,

00:22:18.620 and to the right,

00:22:21.400 deeper,

00:22:22.560 and to the left,

00:22:25.400 deeper,

00:22:26.160 and to the right,

00:22:29.520 deeper,

00:22:31.060 you feel yourself

00:22:32.280 going to your

00:22:34.260 absolute

00:22:35.340 maximum

00:22:36.800 relaxation.

00:22:40.160 And now,

00:22:41.920 completely relaxed,

00:22:44.400 you bring your mind

00:22:46.560 back to where you were

00:22:47.720 in this world.

00:22:51.200 And now,

00:22:52.100 your right arm

00:22:53.000 may have continued

00:22:55.700 to get heavier.

00:22:57.620 Or it may have

00:22:58.560 waited until we got

00:22:59.560 back before it continues.

00:23:02.360 And your left arm now

00:23:03.560 is going to be

00:23:04.400 so light

00:23:05.600 that you're going

00:23:08.220 to feel the difference

00:23:09.200 first in your

00:23:10.620 smallest muscles

00:23:11.500 of your right arm,

00:23:12.800 actually in your

00:23:13.440 fingers of your

00:23:14.140 right arm

00:23:14.580 and right hand.

00:23:17.800 And you might feel

00:23:18.720 that one of the

00:23:19.660 fingers on your

00:23:20.280 left hand

00:23:20.900 starts to

00:23:22.860 twitch.

00:23:24.140 Might be your

00:23:24.780 pinky,

00:23:25.220 might be a

00:23:25.560 thumb.

00:23:27.000 And you'll notice

00:23:27.540 it'll be very

00:23:28.160 small at first.

00:23:29.660 Might not even

00:23:30.460 be noticeable.

00:23:31.520 You might feel it

00:23:32.320 and not even be

00:23:32.860 able to see it.

00:23:33.980 Very small.

00:23:34.600 And each time you

00:23:36.420 feel that little

00:23:36.940 energy,

00:23:38.000 that little bit

00:23:40.300 of energy

00:23:40.800 that hits your

00:23:42.000 fingers,

00:23:43.020 and you feel

00:23:43.340 them move,

00:23:44.360 every time they

00:23:45.120 move,

00:23:45.400 even the smallest

00:23:46.200 amount,

00:23:47.320 a little bit of

00:23:48.020 weight,

00:23:48.980 transfers over to

00:23:49.920 your right arm.

00:23:51.200 Makes it heavier

00:23:52.100 and your right one

00:23:53.900 lighter.

00:23:57.420 For some of you,

00:23:58.840 your left arm is

00:24:00.000 already so light

00:24:01.020 that you could

00:24:02.180 feel as if it

00:24:02.960 might start to

00:24:04.820 lift from where

00:24:07.120 it's resting.

00:24:09.360 You might feel

00:24:10.380 so light,

00:24:13.280 it's almost as

00:24:14.240 if,

00:24:16.200 and all of you

00:24:16.900 will be able to

00:24:17.460 imagine this now,

00:24:19.260 a helium balloon

00:24:20.460 had been tied to

00:24:22.200 your wrist.

00:24:23.340 It's a pretty big

00:24:24.180 balloon.

00:24:25.220 It's so big

00:24:25.980 that it can

00:24:27.100 actually tug on

00:24:28.920 your arm a

00:24:29.540 little bit.

00:24:31.780 It wouldn't be

00:24:32.560 able to lift

00:24:33.340 your arm if it

00:24:34.500 were the normal

00:24:35.060 weight,

00:24:35.980 because it's just

00:24:36.520 a balloon.

00:24:37.720 It's a balloon

00:24:38.400 full of helium,

00:24:39.540 but it's just a

00:24:40.140 balloon.

00:24:41.180 But your arm now

00:24:42.020 is so light

00:24:42.820 that it's starting

00:24:44.640 to feel the tug.

00:24:48.600 It's starting

00:24:49.280 to lift.

00:24:51.360 Now, for some

00:24:52.120 of you, the arm

00:24:53.040 is already lifting.

00:24:54.600 For some of you,

00:24:55.440 it's about to lift.

00:24:58.000 You're all feeling

00:24:58.940 at least a little

00:24:59.780 bit of sensation

00:25:00.560 in your fingers.

00:25:03.000 And for those

00:25:03.840 who feel that

00:25:05.140 sensation growing,

00:25:07.060 and you feel

00:25:07.540 the lightness

00:25:08.120 in your arm,

00:25:08.720 and you feel

00:25:09.160 it start to float,

00:25:10.600 it will actually

00:25:11.580 start to rise up

00:25:12.560 off of the surface

00:25:13.600 it was resting on.

00:25:15.180 You can feel

00:25:15.980 the balloon

00:25:16.460 tugging it,

00:25:17.160 or not necessarily.

00:25:18.520 It may be just

00:25:19.180 so light the balloon

00:25:20.200 is unnecessary.

00:25:22.420 But once it's up

00:25:23.440 there,

00:25:23.680 and it's floating

00:25:25.740 by itself,

00:25:27.480 you'll feel that

00:25:28.520 it starts to be

00:25:29.240 brought back

00:25:29.880 toward your cheek.

00:25:33.540 You'll feel

00:25:34.300 your hand that's

00:25:35.040 floating,

00:25:35.780 on that floating

00:25:36.660 arm,

00:25:37.760 start to be drawn

00:25:38.820 back to your own

00:25:40.300 left cheek.

00:25:42.880 And as your hand

00:25:43.860 starts to be drawn

00:25:45.660 back to the cheek,

00:25:47.420 maybe very slowly

00:25:48.900 at first,

00:25:50.020 you might not feel

00:25:50.960 it right away.

00:25:52.080 You might not feel

00:25:52.740 anything right away.

00:25:54.660 But as that feeling

00:25:55.860 grows,

00:25:56.760 that that irreversible

00:25:59.100 and irresistible

00:26:00.820 pull,

00:26:02.100 almost like a

00:26:03.060 slight magnetic

00:26:04.040 force,

00:26:05.520 is causing

00:26:06.100 these two things

00:26:06.880 to come together.

00:26:08.120 But the moment

00:26:08.920 your left arm

00:26:10.940 or hand

00:26:11.460 hits your left

00:26:12.420 cheek,

00:26:13.520 all of the weight

00:26:14.620 will return to

00:26:15.420 your arm,

00:26:16.200 and it will go

00:26:16.560 back to its

00:26:17.100 resting place,

00:26:18.380 and it will just

00:26:19.080 drop.

00:26:21.100 And when it drops,

00:26:22.740 after it hits

00:26:23.960 your cheek,

00:26:25.340 and all that

00:26:26.100 weight returns,

00:26:27.080 and your right

00:26:27.680 and left arm

00:26:28.300 even out in weight,

00:26:30.380 you are going

00:26:32.060 to reach the

00:26:33.120 deepest,

00:26:34.300 most profound

00:26:35.540 relaxation

00:26:36.940 you've ever

00:26:38.420 experienced.

00:26:40.180 And now in this

00:26:41.440 deep and relaxed

00:26:42.760 state,

00:26:43.900 you've opened

00:26:45.080 the user interface

00:26:46.200 to your own

00:26:47.220 mind.

00:26:48.660 You have full

00:26:49.800 control operating

00:26:51.800 through me

00:26:52.460 as your

00:26:53.060 assistant.

00:26:54.720 You relax

00:26:55.800 and keep

00:26:56.800 an eye on me.

00:26:58.400 Make sure

00:26:58.880 that what I

00:26:59.420 suggest

00:26:59.980 is what you

00:27:00.820 want,

00:27:01.780 because you

00:27:02.300 have full

00:27:02.740 control over

00:27:03.340 that.

00:27:04.720 And here's

00:27:05.340 what I want.

00:27:07.180 I want you

00:27:08.300 to experience

00:27:10.700 a complete

00:27:13.080 end

00:27:14.380 to your biggest

00:27:15.980 problem.

00:27:17.520 You know

00:27:18.280 what it is.

00:27:19.560 I don't even

00:27:20.300 have to mention

00:27:20.800 it.

00:27:22.160 But you're

00:27:22.740 finding now

00:27:23.280 that inside

00:27:25.080 your mind

00:27:27.000 there's a

00:27:28.200 thing called

00:27:28.940 neuroplasticity.

00:27:31.700 It's what

00:27:32.340 allows you

00:27:32.760 to learn.

00:27:34.140 It's what

00:27:34.740 allows you

00:27:35.200 to grow.

00:27:36.380 It's the fact

00:27:36.980 that your brain

00:27:37.520 actually reprograms

00:27:38.880 itself on command.

00:27:40.960 You just

00:27:41.560 have to know

00:27:42.100 how to tell

00:27:42.540 it to.

00:27:43.380 You know

00:27:44.040 how to tell

00:27:44.440 it to learn

00:27:44.920 something

00:27:45.320 and it

00:27:46.600 changes

00:27:46.940 when you

00:27:47.380 learn.

00:27:47.880 Your brain

00:27:48.300 is physically

00:27:48.940 different

00:27:49.280 when you

00:27:49.820 learn.

00:27:51.040 You are

00:27:51.400 now in

00:27:51.940 a programmable

00:27:52.820 state.

00:27:54.620 And your

00:27:54.960 biggest problem

00:27:56.020 is starting

00:27:57.520 to disassemble.

00:28:00.440 Already

00:28:01.080 it's breaking

00:28:01.800 into smaller

00:28:02.460 parts.

00:28:03.860 And you

00:28:04.220 can see

00:28:04.560 the smaller

00:28:05.160 parts of

00:28:06.660 your bigger

00:28:07.140 problem

00:28:07.660 become clear.

00:28:10.460 And as

00:28:11.060 those parts

00:28:12.600 become clear

00:28:14.620 so too

00:28:16.100 do their

00:28:16.540 solutions.

00:28:18.540 And it

00:28:18.760 will be a

00:28:19.080 different

00:28:19.300 problem

00:28:19.660 from each

00:28:20.120 of you.

00:28:20.860 You all

00:28:21.440 have your

00:28:21.780 own.

00:28:22.960 But you

00:28:23.440 now have

00:28:23.940 experienced

00:28:24.640 your own

00:28:25.800 brain

00:28:26.220 activating

00:28:28.040 to solve

00:28:29.440 the problem

00:28:30.040 that your

00:28:30.620 conscious

00:28:31.040 brain

00:28:31.500 was stumped

00:28:33.040 by.

00:28:34.260 I'm going

00:28:35.020 to employ

00:28:35.580 the subconscious

00:28:36.340 part of

00:28:36.820 your brain

00:28:37.280 to disassemble

00:28:39.080 your biggest

00:28:39.720 problem

00:28:40.140 into its

00:28:40.720 smallest

00:28:41.620 parts.

00:28:43.100 And then

00:28:43.420 the rest

00:28:44.080 of your

00:28:44.340 brain

00:28:44.660 is going

00:28:45.140 to solve

00:28:45.840 each of

00:28:46.320 those small

00:28:46.780 parts one

00:28:47.900 at a time.

00:28:49.120 It might

00:28:49.700 be that you

00:28:50.620 need a

00:28:50.940 system.

00:28:52.660 It might

00:28:53.040 be that you

00:28:54.260 need to

00:28:54.680 change

00:28:55.140 something.

00:28:56.260 But those

00:28:56.860 small changes

00:28:57.560 that you

00:28:57.960 needed to

00:28:58.400 make to

00:28:59.160 add up to

00:29:00.120 the big

00:29:00.440 change you

00:29:00.960 needed, it

00:29:02.080 was hard to

00:29:02.520 get started,

00:29:03.520 wasn't it?

00:29:04.560 It was a

00:29:04.940 little hard to

00:29:05.420 get off the

00:29:05.880 couch.

00:29:06.240 It was a

00:29:06.480 little hard to

00:29:06.840 make that

00:29:07.180 phone call.

00:29:08.200 It was a

00:29:08.460 little hard to

00:29:08.900 talk to that

00:29:09.400 person.

00:29:09.860 It was a

00:29:10.060 little hard to

00:29:10.440 sign up for

00:29:11.020 that thing you

00:29:11.560 needed.

00:29:11.840 But now

00:29:14.060 you can.

00:29:15.400 Because you've

00:29:16.020 taken the

00:29:16.420 big problem

00:29:16.900 and you've

00:29:17.240 broken into

00:29:17.660 small parts.

00:29:19.080 And when you

00:29:19.460 look at each

00:29:19.840 of the small

00:29:20.300 parts, you

00:29:20.720 say, well,

00:29:21.120 that's not

00:29:21.460 hard.

00:29:22.440 I can dial

00:29:23.060 the phone.

00:29:24.700 Let me

00:29:25.000 just do the

00:29:25.460 next part.

00:29:27.040 Dial the

00:29:27.440 phone.

00:29:28.980 I can talk

00:29:29.760 to somebody.

00:29:30.260 I can say,

00:29:30.660 hi.

00:29:31.620 That's easy.

00:29:32.920 Let's do the

00:29:33.520 next part.

00:29:34.620 And when you

00:29:35.280 find that all

00:29:35.900 of your problems

00:29:36.420 can be

00:29:36.880 dissembled to

00:29:38.300 small parts,

00:29:39.340 and you can

00:29:39.760 take the

00:29:40.140 smallest step on

00:29:41.060 each one toward

00:29:42.600 fixing it.

00:29:43.960 And keep in

00:29:44.520 mind, not

00:29:45.200 everything you

00:29:45.860 do will be

00:29:46.780 immediately the

00:29:47.700 right thing.

00:29:48.900 Some of it is

00:29:49.620 experimenting.

00:29:51.100 Sometimes you're

00:29:51.760 going to find out

00:29:52.240 what doesn't

00:29:52.780 work in your

00:29:53.700 process of

00:29:54.560 finding out

00:29:55.000 what does.

00:29:56.940 Let me give

00:29:57.620 you this one

00:29:58.120 story from

00:29:58.760 actor Michael

00:29:59.660 Keaton.

00:30:01.900 He said that

00:30:02.760 when he did

00:30:03.160 interviews, or

00:30:04.540 he did

00:30:05.100 auditions for

00:30:05.960 parts, it

00:30:07.800 was a very

00:30:08.300 destructive feeling

00:30:09.940 because he

00:30:10.320 would go

00:30:10.560 there and

00:30:10.940 quite often

00:30:11.400 you don't

00:30:11.720 get the

00:30:12.020 part.

00:30:13.260 And so it

00:30:13.600 feels like a

00:30:14.080 failure.

00:30:14.980 And he

00:30:15.280 would go

00:30:15.560 home feeling

00:30:16.020 like a

00:30:16.420 failure.

00:30:17.760 Until he

00:30:18.360 learned to

00:30:19.420 reframe his

00:30:20.160 experience.

00:30:21.840 And no

00:30:22.220 longer did he

00:30:22.880 say, I'm

00:30:23.760 there to get

00:30:24.260 that job and

00:30:24.960 if I don't

00:30:25.420 get it, I

00:30:25.840 fail.

00:30:26.840 He said to

00:30:27.500 himself,

00:30:28.600 interviewing and

00:30:29.500 auditioning is

00:30:31.240 my job.

00:30:32.880 If I went to

00:30:33.760 an audition today,

00:30:34.580 I did my

00:30:35.060 job.

00:30:35.980 And I'm

00:30:36.480 happy about

00:30:36.920 that because I

00:30:37.540 did my work.

00:30:38.180 I had a

00:30:39.320 job and I

00:30:39.820 did it.

00:30:40.620 And I got

00:30:41.000 better at it and

00:30:41.860 I increased my

00:30:42.620 odds of getting

00:30:43.260 a job.

00:30:44.260 Now every time he

00:30:45.180 goes to an

00:30:45.720 interview or an

00:30:46.980 audition, he

00:30:48.060 doesn't think,

00:30:48.800 what if I don't

00:30:49.360 get it, what if

00:30:49.940 I do?

00:30:50.840 He thinks, today

00:30:52.200 we'll be

00:30:52.580 successful.

00:30:53.880 I did my

00:30:54.440 job.

00:30:55.360 I went to an

00:30:55.920 audition.

00:30:57.140 He'll get some

00:30:57.760 of those jobs.

00:30:59.180 He doesn't know

00:30:59.640 which ones, but

00:31:00.700 he knows that he

00:31:01.240 has to go to

00:31:01.760 auditions to do

00:31:02.580 it.

00:31:03.700 And so you

00:31:04.240 too will find

00:31:05.320 that all those

00:31:05.880 smaller things you

00:31:06.840 need to do,

00:31:07.440 to fix

00:31:08.660 everything in

00:31:09.320 your life,

00:31:10.720 are now more

00:31:11.300 accessible.

00:31:12.720 Instead of

00:31:13.380 seeming like one

00:31:14.340 big impossible

00:31:15.180 thing, now it

00:31:16.720 seems like a

00:31:17.240 bunch of little

00:31:17.840 steps, each one

00:31:19.460 quite accessible.

00:31:20.980 And it doesn't

00:31:21.600 matter what your

00:31:22.100 problem was.

00:31:23.200 Maybe you were

00:31:23.740 anxious, maybe you

00:31:24.660 had a mental

00:31:25.020 problem, maybe you

00:31:26.180 had an actual

00:31:28.500 real life problem,

00:31:29.980 maybe it's pain,

00:31:31.480 could be anything.

00:31:32.140 All of your

00:31:33.740 solutions will be

00:31:34.560 different, but in

00:31:35.900 each case, you're

00:31:36.860 going to A, B

00:31:37.540 test yourself to

00:31:39.240 success.

00:31:40.600 Try solution A.

00:31:42.080 If it doesn't

00:31:42.680 work, discard it

00:31:44.320 immediately.

00:31:45.300 Try B.

00:31:46.300 If it doesn't

00:31:46.920 work, discard it

00:31:48.060 immediately.

00:31:49.040 Try what's next.

00:31:50.480 You are now all on

00:31:51.620 a path toward

00:31:53.500 increasing the

00:31:56.360 quality of your

00:31:57.240 life substantially.

00:31:58.820 And now, from

00:32:02.080 your relaxed

00:32:02.640 state, you're

00:32:04.200 going to feel

00:32:04.460 yourself getting

00:32:06.380 less and less

00:32:07.580 relaxed, but in a

00:32:08.920 good way.

00:32:09.440 When you wake up

00:32:10.760 and open your

00:32:11.200 eyes, you will be

00:32:11.920 completely awake

00:32:13.360 and energized and

00:32:15.240 feeling good and

00:32:16.020 ready for the day.

00:32:17.500 And every bit of

00:32:19.160 this will stay with

00:32:20.420 you and allow you

00:32:22.000 to break your big

00:32:22.880 problems into small

00:32:24.100 automatically, and

00:32:26.800 all of them will

00:32:27.480 seem more accessible

00:32:28.380 and solvable, and

00:32:30.380 then you will.

00:32:31.860 I'm going to count

00:32:32.480 backwards from 20

00:32:34.040 to 1.

00:32:34.700 When I hit 1, your

00:32:36.100 eyes will open.

00:32:37.220 You'll be awake and

00:32:38.020 refreshed, feeling

00:32:39.320 better than you've

00:32:39.980 ever felt in your

00:32:41.720 entire life.

00:32:43.120 20, 19, 18, getting

00:32:46.400 more awake, 17, 16,

00:32:49.020 15, 14, getting

00:32:50.900 more awake, happier,

00:32:52.820 13, 12, 10, 8,

00:32:56.640 6, 5, 4, almost

00:33:00.960 completely awake, 3, 2, and

00:33:04.080 now completely awake,

00:33:05.240 1, hello.

00:33:07.480 Now, there's a thing

00:33:14.640 that happens right after

00:33:16.660 hypnosis, and I'm

00:33:20.860 going to do it right

00:33:21.440 now.

00:33:22.640 It's the part where I

00:33:23.760 ask you about your

00:33:24.900 experience, and then

00:33:26.440 you tell me.

00:33:29.320 Tell me what you

00:33:30.280 felt.

00:33:30.720 Tell me, did your

00:33:35.000 arm feel lighter?

00:33:37.340 Yes or no?

00:33:38.940 Did anybody's arm feel

00:33:40.240 lighter?

00:33:42.220 Yes, yes, yes.

00:33:43.460 No.

00:33:44.020 Yes, yes.

00:33:44.760 No.

00:33:45.720 Yes, no.

00:33:46.560 Yes, no.

00:33:47.320 Now, that's about the

00:33:48.680 ratio one would expect.

00:33:51.260 Now, with hypnosis,

00:33:52.920 remember I told you you

00:33:54.000 can't do it as easily if

00:33:57.180 you're not there in

00:33:57.860 person.

00:33:59.940 For those of you who

00:34:01.060 didn't feel anything, if

00:34:02.980 I had been there in

00:34:03.700 person, you would.

00:34:05.140 You would.

00:34:05.960 Because I would see that

00:34:07.560 you weren't feeling it.

00:34:09.060 Part of hypnosis is

00:34:10.480 observing somebody and

00:34:11.880 knowing if what you're

00:34:12.700 doing is having the

00:34:13.400 right impact.

00:34:14.720 So I would have been

00:34:15.660 able to observe you

00:34:16.840 directly not having an

00:34:18.260 impact, because you can

00:34:19.420 tell.

00:34:20.360 And then I would have

00:34:21.060 changed what I was

00:34:21.740 saying, or I would have

00:34:22.940 spent more time getting

00:34:23.860 you into the mood before

00:34:25.740 I got the result I

00:34:27.180 wanted.

00:34:27.880 But I will tell you

00:34:28.600 that I'm pretty sure 100%

00:34:30.660 of the people that I've

00:34:31.580 ever done hypnosis on in

00:34:33.000 person have felt the arm

00:34:35.560 floating.

00:34:38.160 I don't think it's ever

00:34:40.160 not worked in my

00:34:41.460 experience.

00:34:45.020 Did you ad-lib that?

00:34:47.220 That's actually less than

00:34:49.580 a complete induction.

00:34:52.860 So that's called an

00:34:53.600 induction, but it wasn't

00:34:54.680 complete.

00:34:55.020 So one of the parts that

00:35:04.480 would normally be part of

00:35:06.300 that would be some

00:35:07.800 counting from 1 to 20,

00:35:09.360 and then from 20 back to

00:35:10.580 1.

00:35:11.680 And what that does is it

00:35:13.040 serves to just deepen you.

00:35:15.080 So there's sort of a

00:35:16.300 filler or extender part of

00:35:18.640 that that actually takes a

00:35:19.600 while.

00:35:20.900 Why 20?

00:35:21.660 It's a random number.

00:35:22.640 You know, 10 just happens

00:35:24.740 too quickly, and 30 is

00:35:26.840 unnecessary, so there's no

00:35:28.420 reason for 20.

00:35:31.700 Yeah.

00:35:32.480 So here's what you don't

00:35:33.660 need.

00:35:34.140 Let me tell you what parts of

00:35:35.180 hypnosis are not the active

00:35:36.920 ingredients.

00:35:37.500 the tonal quality of my voice

00:35:42.100 is not important.

00:35:46.960 The pauses are not

00:35:50.720 completely necessary, but I

00:35:52.720 like using them because they

00:35:53.680 make you focus on me.

00:35:55.460 So sometimes you'll have to

00:35:56.660 wait for my next word.

00:35:58.240 I do that intentionally.

00:35:59.260 So if I say you need to

00:36:01.240 wait for my next word, for a

00:36:06.720 moment there, all of your

00:36:07.640 attention just went, why is

00:36:09.500 that blank there?

00:36:10.540 What's that next word?

00:36:11.340 Okay.

00:36:12.500 If I were just talking

00:36:13.640 consistently, your attention

00:36:15.900 would be with me, but

00:36:16.960 sometimes you'd be thinking

00:36:17.840 about other things too.

00:36:19.340 You would be dipping in and

00:36:20.340 out.

00:36:21.220 But my pauses make you say,

00:36:22.820 okay, there's something going

00:36:23.780 on here.

00:36:24.140 I've got to focus on this.

00:36:25.460 I don't want to miss that

00:36:26.220 next word.

00:36:27.400 So that's why I do it.

00:36:28.480 So focus and repetition and

00:36:31.120 association, relaxation,

00:36:33.800 influence, you know, just

00:36:35.300 from other people.

00:36:36.180 We just pick up the

00:36:36.840 influence.

00:36:38.380 Expectations, priming.

00:36:40.520 These are all the

00:36:41.280 components.

00:36:42.220 And then feedback.

00:36:43.120 That's probably the most

00:36:43.880 important one.

00:36:44.720 Watching what works and

00:36:45.720 then adjusting it.

00:36:50.080 Now, once somebody is

00:36:51.720 hypnotized, you're going to

00:36:53.960 have to give them a

00:36:54.680 suggestion that makes sense

00:36:56.400 for them specifically.

00:36:57.400 So since I was doing

00:36:59.300 everybody who was

00:37:00.780 watching at the same

00:37:01.540 time, now a few

00:37:04.100 thousand of you, I had

00:37:07.000 to go with something that

00:37:07.840 I knew would work for

00:37:09.080 every single person.

00:37:10.180 Because there's nobody

00:37:10.780 here who doesn't have a

00:37:11.620 problem that they need to

00:37:12.660 break down and solve.

00:37:15.720 I was going to go with

00:37:17.040 confidence.

00:37:18.280 That's the other thing that

00:37:19.160 would have worked.

00:37:20.320 Because everybody is

00:37:21.260 better off with more

00:37:22.180 confidence.

00:37:23.040 You know, as long as it's

00:37:23.820 not crazy.

00:37:24.620 So that's another good

00:37:26.980 one you can do with

00:37:27.640 everybody.

00:37:30.740 Use the pause count and

00:37:32.020 sales.

00:37:34.140 Yeah.

00:37:39.520 All right.

00:37:40.040 How many of you were

00:37:41.140 afraid to participate in

00:37:43.940 this little experiment

00:37:44.760 because you didn't want to

00:37:46.980 give up your control?

00:37:49.020 Anybody have that feeling?

00:37:50.860 You didn't want to give

00:37:51.700 up your control?

00:37:54.820 Yeah.

00:37:55.360 Some of you.

00:37:56.300 That's usually what I

00:37:57.160 hear.

00:37:58.500 But the thing you need to

00:37:59.540 know about hypnosis, and

00:38:00.700 this is something I would

00:38:01.560 have put in the pre-talk.

00:38:03.740 So what you saw was a

00:38:05.200 very compacted one.

00:38:08.360 If we were doing this in

00:38:09.580 person, it would be like a

00:38:10.680 45 minute to an hour

00:38:12.100 thing.

00:38:13.080 So everything would have

00:38:14.000 been extended and there

00:38:14.960 would be a lot more

00:38:15.640 detail in the entire

00:38:18.900 process.

00:38:20.860 But one of the things I

00:38:21.820 would have told you is

00:38:22.420 this.

00:38:23.720 The hypnotist is never in

00:38:25.040 charge of you.

00:38:26.780 The hypnotist is never in

00:38:28.300 charge.

00:38:28.840 And there's nothing that

00:38:29.820 you would do that you

00:38:31.000 wouldn't feel was

00:38:32.140 perfectly appropriate for

00:38:34.200 you to do.

00:38:36.060 So under hypnosis, if I

00:38:37.780 said to you, go buy a

00:38:40.240 gun and kill my enemy,

00:38:42.620 you would sit there and

00:38:43.780 you'd have exactly the

00:38:44.780 same thought you would

00:38:45.420 have now, which is,

00:38:46.960 what?

00:38:48.360 Why would I do that?

00:38:49.640 I'm not going to do

00:38:50.280 that.

00:38:51.340 There would be no

00:38:52.100 difference in your

00:38:52.800 thought process under

00:38:54.640 hypnosis and outside of

00:38:56.160 hypnosis.

00:38:56.920 None.

00:38:57.700 You would say, I'm not

00:38:58.700 going to do that.

00:39:00.060 So you don't have to

00:39:00.960 worry about anything

00:39:01.780 taking over your brain.

00:39:03.960 Everything's

00:39:04.360 transparent.

00:39:08.320 Greg says he was

00:39:09.340 afraid I would molest

00:39:10.320 him.

00:39:10.500 Now, Greg, playing

00:39:14.040 a safe, and I think

00:39:15.600 that was a wise move

00:39:16.900 because I know where

00:39:18.900 you live.

00:39:20.860 All right.

00:39:29.320 Can you get rid of an

00:39:30.400 amber herd?

00:39:32.240 You have an amber

00:39:33.160 herd problem?

00:39:34.380 Run away.

00:39:35.480 That's all you can do.

00:39:36.320 All right.

00:39:40.500 Yes.

00:39:44.040 So there was a

00:39:45.220 little thinking past

00:39:46.320 the sale.

00:39:46.800 That's part of the

00:39:47.200 process, too.

00:39:50.100 Yet, if you're

00:39:51.160 trying to change a

00:39:52.000 narcissist, don't.

00:39:53.580 Go to YouTube,

00:39:55.480 spend an hour

00:39:56.620 looking at the

00:39:57.900 experts talking about

00:39:59.000 how to handle a

00:40:00.420 narcissist, and

00:40:02.040 every one of them

00:40:02.700 will have the same

00:40:03.420 advice, no

00:40:04.800 exception.

00:40:06.800 Get out of

00:40:07.520 there.

00:40:08.680 Just run away.

00:40:09.380 Nobody says work

00:40:11.160 it out.

00:40:11.920 Nobody.

00:40:12.340 There's no expert

00:40:12.980 who says stay there

00:40:13.760 and work it out.

00:40:15.080 None.

00:40:16.140 Because the problem

00:40:17.240 is they feed on

00:40:18.120 you.

00:40:20.040 If you fall into

00:40:21.020 the frame that

00:40:21.820 you're in a

00:40:22.280 relationship, you're

00:40:24.680 doomed because

00:40:26.440 they're not in a

00:40:27.120 relationship.

00:40:28.300 You are their

00:40:28.960 food.

00:40:30.260 You're their

00:40:30.820 food.

00:40:32.260 So it's like

00:40:32.880 saying, well, I've

00:40:34.200 got this hungry

00:40:34.840 wolf who has no

00:40:35.660 other source of

00:40:36.360 food, and I'm

00:40:37.340 trying to work

00:40:37.840 things out with

00:40:38.440 them so he

00:40:38.840 doesn't eat me

00:40:39.480 and use me as

00:40:40.620 his food.

00:40:42.340 There's no amount

00:40:43.180 of training you

00:40:43.920 can do to make

00:40:44.560 a starving wolf

00:40:45.320 not eat you if

00:40:46.380 you're his food.

00:40:48.580 So trying to get

00:40:49.840 a narcissist to

00:40:51.780 not consume you,

00:40:54.300 that's nothing.

00:40:55.400 Because the more

00:40:56.020 you try to make it

00:40:56.780 not happen, the

00:40:57.380 more they enjoy

00:40:57.960 it.

00:40:59.320 The more you

00:41:00.080 struggle, the

00:41:01.140 happier they

00:41:01.640 are.

00:41:01.820 So run away.

00:41:08.280 Just run away.

00:41:12.140 Could I

00:41:12.640 hypnotize Jennifer

00:41:13.500 Aniston for you?

00:41:16.100 Absolutely.

00:41:16.860 I'll get right on

00:41:17.580 that.

00:41:19.120 All right.

00:41:19.620 Well, you can see

00:41:20.120 what happens when

00:41:20.760 I'm not prepared.

00:41:22.580 Was there anything

00:41:23.240 in the news today?

00:41:24.940 So I saw that the

00:41:25.920 Republicans came out

00:41:28.540 with this, some

00:41:29.820 kind of, what are

00:41:30.900 they calling it?

00:41:32.680 The House

00:41:33.640 commitment to

00:41:35.460 America.

00:41:36.900 And it's going to

00:41:37.440 include fighting

00:41:38.060 inflation, border

00:41:39.020 security, protecting

00:41:40.800 women's sports.

00:41:45.600 Does protecting

00:41:46.740 women's sports,

00:41:49.020 should that be

00:41:50.120 right on the top

00:41:51.840 line of your

00:41:52.660 national policy?

00:41:56.040 I wonder if

00:41:56.920 they've done some

00:41:57.560 research to find

00:41:58.440 out that it

00:41:59.220 actually gets

00:41:59.740 votes.

00:42:00.080 It might, I

00:42:01.520 don't know, maybe

00:42:02.420 it gets votes.

00:42:03.400 Yeah, so where's

00:42:04.320 fentanyl on there?

00:42:05.660 So apparently

00:42:06.220 fentanyl is not as

00:42:08.040 important as

00:42:08.600 protecting women's

00:42:09.660 sports.

00:42:12.840 But he does say

00:42:13.760 border security.

00:42:14.740 I mean, that's part

00:42:15.460 of fentanyl, but it's

00:42:16.280 just a small part.

00:42:18.320 Do most of you know

00:42:19.340 that closing the

00:42:20.460 border wouldn't have

00:42:22.340 that much impact on

00:42:23.560 fentanyl, right?

00:42:24.760 Because the way the

00:42:25.700 government is fooling

00:42:26.820 fooling you is by

00:42:29.020 telling you how

00:42:29.620 much they're capturing

00:42:31.940 on the border.

00:42:33.560 Don't fall for that.

00:42:35.960 Don't fall for how

00:42:37.140 much they're capturing

00:42:38.080 at the border.

00:42:39.980 Because that's a

00:42:40.860 trick.

00:42:41.800 That has everything

00:42:42.840 to do with how much

00:42:43.760 is being shipped.

00:42:45.140 Do you know why

00:42:45.700 they're catching so

00:42:46.400 much at the border?

00:42:48.640 Because the border is

00:42:49.820 the easiest place to

00:42:51.060 ship it.

00:42:52.200 If the border were

00:42:53.300 the hardest place to

00:42:54.500 ship it, how much

00:42:55.880 would they catch?

00:42:57.820 None.

00:42:59.200 And how much

00:43:00.220 fentanyl would get in

00:43:01.300 if the border was

00:43:02.640 completely sealed?

00:43:04.520 How much fentanyl

00:43:05.620 would get in?

00:43:06.900 If the southern border

00:43:08.240 was completely sealed

00:43:09.280 and not a single

00:43:10.420 person or pill got

00:43:11.380 through there, how

00:43:12.560 much fentanyl would

00:43:13.340 get to the United

00:43:13.840 States?

00:43:15.460 No, the answer is

00:43:16.320 all of it.

00:43:17.740 All of it.

00:43:19.620 You just put it on a

00:43:20.460 boat.

00:43:21.400 Do you know, I

00:43:23.940 could put enough

00:43:24.660 fentanyl to kill

00:43:26.400 San Francisco, it

00:43:29.140 would be the size of

00:43:29.880 a baseball.

00:43:31.520 And I'd walk up to

00:43:32.320 the fence with enough

00:43:33.620 fentanyl to kill

00:43:34.400 everybody in San

00:43:35.300 Francisco, it would

00:43:36.400 be in my hand the

00:43:37.240 size of a baseball,

00:43:38.800 and I'd say, hey

00:43:39.760 Juan, catch.

00:43:42.140 And I'd throw it

00:43:42.740 over the wall, and

00:43:44.780 Juan would catch it

00:43:45.700 and say, thanks for

00:43:47.420 this ball of fentanyl

00:43:48.520 that's enough to kill

00:43:49.340 everybody in San

00:43:50.060 Francisco.

00:43:50.440 See you next week.

00:43:54.780 The thing that the

00:43:57.180 country doesn't

00:43:57.920 understand, and the

00:43:58.740 reason you don't

00:43:59.620 understand it, is

00:44:01.220 because the government

00:44:01.860 does not want you to

00:44:02.940 understand that.

00:44:04.420 The Republicans don't

00:44:05.820 want you to understand

00:44:06.700 that border security

00:44:07.580 won't help you with

00:44:08.380 fentanyl.

00:44:08.860 You know why?

00:44:09.500 Because they want

00:44:10.080 border security.

00:44:10.760 Oh, fuck.

00:44:14.520 Did I just figure out

00:44:15.700 why the Republicans

00:44:16.420 are not working on

00:44:17.340 fentanyl, because they

00:44:18.100 want border security?

00:44:19.880 That's got to be it.

00:44:21.500 That's got to be it.

00:44:22.640 I've been wondering

00:44:23.180 why the Republicans

00:44:24.040 have been worthless

00:44:25.020 pieces of shit about

00:44:27.380 fentanyl from the

00:44:28.580 start.

00:44:30.220 Complete worthless

00:44:31.220 pieces of shit.

00:44:32.140 They need it for the

00:44:33.520 political.

00:44:33.860 They need it to make

00:44:37.340 the border argument

00:44:38.460 stronger, and it's

00:44:39.920 pure bullshit.

00:44:41.700 Oh, you motherfuckers.

00:44:43.600 You fucking, fucking

00:44:45.200 motherfuckers.

00:44:46.380 You better separate

00:44:47.500 those issues, or I'm

00:44:48.580 going to take you down.

00:44:49.340 I'm going to take

00:44:50.920 down anybody who

00:44:51.840 keeps saying that

00:44:52.460 border security is

00:44:53.340 their answer to

00:44:54.340 fentanyl.

00:44:55.060 I started with

00:44:56.000 Carrie Lake.

00:44:57.320 Carrie Lake responded

00:44:59.240 to one of my tweets

00:45:00.260 yesterday with her

00:45:02.060 plan for fentanyl.

00:45:05.240 The biggest part of

00:45:06.320 that plan was border

00:45:07.100 security.

00:45:08.360 Carrie Lake, you're

00:45:09.000 a fraud.

00:45:10.340 You're a fraud.

00:45:12.040 You're a fucking

00:45:12.700 fraud.

00:45:14.520 Carrie Lake, you

00:45:15.520 are a fraud.

00:45:17.320 You need to

00:45:18.100 separate

00:45:18.540 fentanyl from

00:45:21.180 border security.

00:45:22.540 Border security has

00:45:23.340 a little bit to do

00:45:24.020 with it, maybe 10%.

00:45:25.060 But you are a

00:45:27.080 fucking fraud.

00:45:29.940 And if you don't

00:45:30.880 separate those topics,

00:45:32.040 I'm going to take you

00:45:32.620 down with everybody

00:45:33.560 else who's doing the

00:45:34.380 same thing.

00:45:35.020 You're all liars.

00:45:36.540 You're a fucking

00:45:37.880 liar.

00:45:38.680 You're a fucking

00:45:39.480 liar if you're

00:45:40.820 saying that border

00:45:41.420 security is your

00:45:42.140 answer to fentanyl.

00:45:43.040 You know it's not.

00:45:44.160 You know it's not.

00:45:45.540 And don't tell me how

00:45:46.400 much you caught at the

00:45:47.360 border.

00:45:47.640 That's an irrelevant

00:45:49.400 number.

00:45:50.340 Don't tell me how much

00:45:51.220 Trump caught at the

00:45:52.440 border.

00:45:53.120 And let me say this just

00:45:54.200 as clearly.

00:45:56.300 I think Trump said

00:45:57.520 something about how

00:45:58.280 much was caught at the

00:45:59.280 border or something on

00:46:00.280 his interview.

00:46:01.380 Fucking bullshit.

00:46:03.360 Fucking Trump

00:46:04.360 bullshit.

00:46:05.720 Right?

00:46:06.440 Now it might be the

00:46:07.320 right number of how

00:46:08.020 much they caught.

00:46:09.180 What I'm saying is if

00:46:10.820 you let them talk about

00:46:11.900 how much they caught at

00:46:12.760 the border, they're not

00:46:13.920 doing their fucking

00:46:14.680 jobs.

00:46:15.140 And they're not

00:46:16.580 trying to.

00:46:17.840 They're trying to fool

00:46:18.940 you into the issue.

00:46:21.520 The issue is border

00:46:22.440 security.

00:46:23.080 Let's get that border

00:46:23.700 security.

00:46:24.580 Now I'm all for border

00:46:25.560 security.

00:46:26.160 You know that.

00:46:27.160 I love my border

00:46:27.980 security.

00:46:29.140 I would even like a wall

00:46:30.300 wherever it makes sense.

00:46:32.520 But if you're trying to

00:46:34.200 conflate this with

00:46:35.160 fentanyl, fuck you.

00:46:37.600 You monster fucking

00:46:40.000 piece of shit.

00:46:41.480 That's what I think of

00:46:42.300 you.

00:46:42.400 If you tell me that

00:46:43.500 border security is your

00:46:44.440 fentanyl plan.

00:46:46.020 Here's a fentanyl plan.

00:46:48.460 I'm going to get Narcan

00:46:50.420 in every home.

00:46:52.540 Or every car.

00:46:53.740 Something like that.

00:46:55.400 Because Narcan is a

00:46:57.340 way to save somebody

00:46:59.280 who's overdosing on

00:47:00.360 fentanyl.

00:47:01.640 We know that.

00:47:02.900 We know it works.

00:47:03.980 Now it's not like a

00:47:05.220 perfect solution, right?

00:47:06.300 You'd have to know how

00:47:07.000 to use it.

00:47:07.920 You'd have to get there

00:47:08.760 in time.

00:47:09.960 You'd have to know

00:47:10.480 it's the right time to

00:47:11.940 use it.

00:47:12.400 So it's not perfect.

00:47:14.720 But if you've got Narcan

00:47:15.860 in every home, you would

00:47:18.400 probably take a third of

00:47:21.160 the overdoses away.

00:47:23.120 Just guessing.

00:47:24.380 But I would think at

00:47:25.280 least a third of them

00:47:26.240 would end.

00:47:26.960 The rest of them,

00:47:27.880 there's nobody around.

00:47:29.100 They can't find their

00:47:29.900 kit, don't know how to

00:47:31.220 use it, whatever.

00:47:32.840 But right now, I think

00:47:34.340 that you need a

00:47:34.900 prescription for Narcan.

00:47:36.320 Can somebody do a fact

00:47:37.300 check on that in the

00:47:38.200 United States?

00:47:39.480 Maybe a difference by

00:47:40.340 state?

00:47:40.780 I don't know.

00:47:41.920 But I think you need a

00:47:43.140 prescription for Narcan.

00:47:45.660 Do you know what that

00:47:46.240 means?

00:47:46.900 That means nobody's going

00:47:47.940 to fucking get it if you

00:47:49.880 need a prescription.

00:47:52.600 Carrie Lake, if you want

00:47:53.900 to be useful, tell your

00:47:55.980 people how to get some

00:47:56.740 fucking Narcan.

00:47:58.880 Skip your entire speech

00:48:00.600 and just give us the

00:48:02.740 instructions of how to get

00:48:04.000 Narcan, and you will be the

00:48:05.780 number one best fentanyl

00:48:07.640 fighter in the United

00:48:08.360 States, and I will

00:48:10.660 support you.

00:48:12.940 Because that would be the

00:48:13.880 best plan.

00:48:15.440 Nobody else has a plan.

00:48:17.740 Carrie Lake, if you tell

00:48:18.780 me that you would do what

00:48:19.700 Matt Gaetz suggested and

00:48:20.880 bomb the cartels, then you

00:48:22.500 have a plan.

00:48:24.080 Now you have my attention.

00:48:26.000 I don't know if that's a

00:48:26.900 good idea or a bad idea,

00:48:28.420 frankly.

00:48:29.160 But you have my attention,

00:48:30.820 and I want to talk about it.

00:48:32.240 Find out if it's good.

00:48:33.140 So stop fucking with us

00:48:36.600 with this border security

00:48:37.940 equals fentanyl.

00:48:39.160 You're fucking liars.

00:48:40.920 You're all fucking liars

00:48:42.560 and idiots.

00:48:43.180 If you believe it's true,

00:48:44.600 well then you're just an

00:48:45.400 idiot.

00:48:46.620 So pick your choice.

00:48:48.560 If you're going to sell us

00:48:49.600 this bullshit, you tell us

00:48:51.600 you're an idiot or a liar.

00:48:53.960 Idiot or a liar.

00:48:55.060 Two fucking choices.

00:48:56.540 Idiot or a liar.

00:48:57.660 And every time you hear

00:48:58.640 somebody say border security

00:48:59.980 is their answer to fentanyl,

00:49:02.140 two fentanyl, you should

00:49:03.540 say this question.

00:49:04.680 That's interesting.

00:49:05.800 Are you an idiot or a

00:49:07.000 fucking liar?

00:49:08.260 Because you know that's

00:49:09.180 not true.

00:49:09.920 You know it's not going to

00:49:10.900 work.

00:49:11.340 And you think we don't

00:49:12.340 know that.

00:49:13.140 You think we're fucking

00:49:14.180 stupid enough to think

00:49:15.640 that your border security

00:49:16.780 is really your fentanyl

00:49:17.880 problem.

00:49:18.440 It's not.

00:49:19.320 It's not your fentanyl.

00:49:20.860 It's not your policy.

00:49:21.980 You don't have a fucking

00:49:23.060 policy.

00:49:24.080 Republicans?

00:49:25.420 Republicans, you don't

00:49:27.060 have a fucking fentanyl

00:49:28.480 policy.

00:49:28.940 And this piece of shit,

00:49:32.600 this new Republican House

00:49:34.360 piece of shit, total fail.

00:49:36.560 Total failure.

00:49:38.120 Absolute total failure.

00:49:40.060 McCarthy, sorry.

00:49:41.640 You failed today.

00:49:43.540 All you fucking Republicans

00:49:44.980 failed.

00:49:45.760 You all fucking failed.

00:49:47.040 You know, I always

00:49:55.700 wondered what would

00:49:56.300 happen when I wasn't

00:49:59.920 afraid of anything.

00:50:02.560 You ever wonder about

00:50:03.600 that?

00:50:04.500 What would happen if you

00:50:05.340 weren't afraid of

00:50:05.960 anything?

00:50:09.380 You know that when I call

00:50:10.600 for the bombing of the

00:50:11.480 cartels, I'm putting my

00:50:12.480 life in jeopardy, right?

00:50:14.860 You know that the odds of

00:50:16.040 me being tortured and

00:50:17.520 killed are pretty high

00:50:18.240 right now.

00:50:19.940 You know that if I go

00:50:21.060 after Russia and Putin,

00:50:23.340 he does kill people in

00:50:24.380 other countries.

00:50:26.400 His critics, he does.

00:50:29.960 You know that the odds of

00:50:31.680 me being canceled for God

00:50:33.400 knows what are very high,

00:50:35.100 right?

00:50:36.980 But the controls are

00:50:40.760 coming off.

00:50:41.320 I'm just going to play

00:50:44.560 this like a video game

00:50:45.920 until the end.

00:50:47.800 And what I mean is, if I

00:50:50.480 don't respawn, that's fine.

00:50:53.040 I'm just going to put it

00:50:54.000 all on the table now.

00:50:56.600 If I don't get this

00:50:57.780 fentanyl thing taken care

00:50:59.100 of, I'm not going to be

00:51:01.940 happy when I, you know, go

00:51:03.340 to my dirt nap in the end.

00:51:06.100 I'm going to get this done.

00:51:07.240 And if I don't get it done,

00:51:08.920 I'm going to destroy people

00:51:10.120 on the way.

00:51:11.060 I'm going to destroy anybody

00:51:12.940 who gets in my way.

00:51:14.520 Because they're doing it

00:51:15.480 intentionally.

00:51:16.740 I wouldn't destroy anybody

00:51:17.840 who just didn't understand

00:51:19.440 or, you know, it was

00:51:20.780 accidental.

00:51:22.140 You know, maybe they had

00:51:23.020 other priorities.

00:51:24.340 You know, okay.

00:51:25.920 But if you are

00:51:26.920 intentionally fooling me

00:51:29.740 about what you can or

00:51:32.440 cannot do about fentanyl,

00:51:34.280 or you're ignoring the

00:51:35.600 biggest problem in the

00:51:36.540 fucking country, then

00:51:38.760 you're going to have to

00:51:39.380 get out of the way.

00:51:40.940 And if you don't get out

00:51:41.960 of the way, I'm going to

00:51:42.560 take you fucking down.

00:51:44.140 Carrie Lake is first on

00:51:45.140 my list.

00:51:46.340 I know you love Carrie

00:51:47.380 Lake, and that's part of

00:51:48.240 the reason.

00:51:48.600 And by the way, let me

00:51:50.840 say this directly.

00:51:53.760 Carrie Lake's pretty

00:51:54.480 awesome.

00:51:56.040 Do we agree?

00:51:57.540 As a political figure,

00:52:00.340 as a communicator, as a

00:52:02.320 personality, she's got a

00:52:04.840 lot of skill.

00:52:06.180 A lot of skill.

00:52:07.180 I'd be surprised if she

00:52:08.140 lost the election.

00:52:10.440 But I will fucking take

00:52:13.100 her down if she doesn't

00:52:14.640 separate border security

00:52:16.080 from fentanyl.

00:52:17.420 And everybody else.

00:52:18.480 It has nothing to do with

00:52:19.380 Carrie Lake, right?

00:52:20.460 She just happened to be the

00:52:21.360 first one who walked into

00:52:22.260 my kill zone.

00:52:26.620 If you walk into the

00:52:27.720 kill box, don't complain

00:52:31.200 to me.

00:52:31.540 And McCarthy just walked

00:52:33.040 into the kill box.

00:52:34.380 I have no problems with

00:52:35.280 McCarthy, but if you're

00:52:37.560 going to sell me this

00:52:38.380 bullshit plan, and it

00:52:40.300 doesn't have any serious

00:52:41.840 fentanyl anything in it,

00:52:43.940 I am going to resist it

00:52:45.480 and mock it and try to get

00:52:48.420 you to do the same.

00:52:51.180 I wonder if I didn't have

00:52:52.400 enough coffee this morning.

00:52:55.560 What am I going to do to

00:52:56.600 the Dems?

00:52:57.020 I'm going to make them

00:52:58.200 compete.

00:53:00.380 And I'm going to try to get

00:53:01.620 one to ten million voters

00:53:04.800 to treat this election as

00:53:07.160 potentially a single issue

00:53:11.220 vote.

00:53:13.120 Because I would take another

00:53:14.860 four years of Biden, I know,

00:53:18.100 I would take four more years

00:53:19.260 of Biden if he had a plan to

00:53:21.740 beat fentanyl and it sounded

00:53:23.440 like it really would get it

00:53:24.540 done.

00:53:25.760 Now, that's not going to

00:53:26.900 happen, so you don't have to

00:53:27.800 worry about it, right?

00:53:28.580 But that's how serious I am.

00:53:31.380 I think Biden's a disaster.

00:53:34.020 But I would take four more

00:53:35.360 years of him because he's the

00:53:38.860 tourniquet president.

00:53:40.380 Let me put it another way.

00:53:42.000 In my opinion, the next

00:53:43.300 president is the tourniquet

00:53:44.620 president.

00:53:46.540 Right?

00:53:46.900 The tourniquet is the thing

00:53:48.160 you have to do right away and

00:53:49.640 nothing else matters.

00:53:50.420 It doesn't matter if you have

00:53:51.820 a headache if you're bleeding

00:53:53.360 to death.

00:53:54.420 So you've got to put the

00:53:55.400 tourniquet on and stop the

00:53:56.640 bleeding, then maybe you work

00:53:58.500 on the headache.

00:54:00.800 Fentanyl is the bleeding arm.

00:54:04.760 We're at war.

00:54:06.360 We're at war and we're acting

00:54:07.660 like we're not.

00:54:08.940 We should be on war footing,

00:54:10.800 literally military war footing.

00:54:13.300 The military of the United States

00:54:14.840 should be protecting the

00:54:15.920 homeland and isn't fucking doing it.

00:54:17.580 Let me ask you, how many

00:54:19.560 trillion fucking dollars does

00:54:21.020 our homeland security people

00:54:22.680 have?

00:54:23.540 How many trillions?

00:54:25.520 And what have they done for

00:54:27.200 fentanyl?

00:54:28.480 They've captured the excess

00:54:30.180 that didn't make any

00:54:31.300 difference.

00:54:32.460 That's what they've done.

00:54:33.960 There's not a single fucking

00:54:35.360 person in this country who can't

00:54:36.960 get fentanyl if they want it.

00:54:39.620 All of the fentanyl they caught,

00:54:41.340 all of it, how much difference

00:54:42.420 did it make?

00:54:44.120 With all that they caught, how

00:54:46.500 many fewer people took fentanyl?

00:54:49.240 None.

00:54:50.760 None.

00:54:51.840 Because there was so much, it

00:54:52.980 didn't matter how much you

00:54:53.780 caught.

00:54:54.560 It just didn't matter.

00:54:55.700 So we're actually working on

00:54:57.120 the don't matter part.

00:54:58.500 The part that couldn't make any

00:54:59.960 difference.

00:55:00.660 How much you catch.

00:55:02.380 Couldn't make any difference.

00:55:03.900 Stop being gullible.

00:55:07.280 Don't care.

00:55:08.240 In fact, here's another thing for

00:55:09.740 you.

00:55:10.420 The next time you see somebody

00:55:11.520 bragging about how much they

00:55:12.780 caught at the border, here's what

00:55:14.680 you should respond to.

00:55:16.300 Not, wow, that's a good job.

00:55:18.180 You sure caught a lot of stuff at

00:55:19.460 the border.

00:55:20.580 How about you miserable fucking

00:55:22.500 cunt?

00:55:24.120 That is a distraction.

00:55:26.160 Because you know how much you

00:55:27.360 catch at the border has nothing to

00:55:28.860 do with anything.

00:55:29.800 Because there's so much coming in

00:55:31.120 the border, you could catch

00:55:32.360 fucking truckloads of it and they

00:55:34.020 would just make more.

00:55:35.640 Because there's so many holes in

00:55:37.100 the fucking border, they can put

00:55:38.420 it through there all day long.

00:55:40.160 You catch 10% of it?

00:55:41.520 Oh great, you caught 10% of what

00:55:44.720 has doubled.

00:55:46.240 Good job, fucking worthless

00:55:48.200 pieces of shit.

00:55:50.000 Stop lying to us.

00:55:51.840 Stop fucking lying to us about

00:55:55.020 fentanyl.

00:55:56.120 Border security won't get it done

00:55:57.680 and no matter how much you catch,

00:56:00.340 irrelevant, completely irrelevant to

00:56:03.160 the issue.

00:56:03.560 And so, I don't think I maintained

00:56:13.120 your relaxed state that I generated

00:56:15.520 in the beginning of this.

00:56:19.300 All right.

00:56:22.540 Was there anything else going on?

00:56:25.140 Let me check the news for the other

00:56:27.820 things, let's see.

00:56:29.160 There's something that's less

00:56:30.260 important than fentanyl, something

00:56:31.660 less important than fentanyl, fuck

00:56:33.240 you, it's all less important.

00:56:35.220 That's all I'm going to talk

00:56:35.940 about today.

00:56:42.120 Any other questions?

00:56:48.340 Oh, there's another thing that I

00:56:50.300 saw people were trying to

00:56:51.640 understand.

00:56:54.560 Here's how you don't want to be an

00:56:56.700 NPC.

00:56:57.380 Are you ready?

00:56:58.900 Here's what the NPCs say about

00:57:00.960 fentanyl.

00:57:01.520 But, but, but, but, it has

00:57:05.500 legitimate legal uses.

00:57:08.080 Don't be that person.

00:57:10.400 Of course it has legitimate legal

00:57:12.500 uses.

00:57:13.520 Of course we want that to continue.

00:57:16.540 Of course it should be legal

00:57:18.440 medically.

00:57:19.740 Of course.

00:57:21.340 Who's going to argue with that?

00:57:23.260 If you need to bring that up,

00:57:26.040 don't.

00:57:26.460 Now I get, I get that there could

00:57:29.260 be, you know, too much tightening

00:57:30.740 and, you know, you could go too far

00:57:33.740 in the medical sense.

00:57:34.940 I'm not promoting that.

00:57:36.620 There's nothing I've ever said that

00:57:38.100 said tighten up on the

00:57:39.840 prescriptions.

00:57:40.680 Have you ever heard me say that?

00:57:42.260 Have I ever said tighten up on those

00:57:43.860 prescriptions?

00:57:45.120 No, I think it's an issue that people

00:57:46.740 who know what they're talking about

00:57:47.860 should deal with, but I'm not one of

00:57:49.340 them.

00:57:50.000 I don't know.

00:57:50.880 Have they done enough?

00:57:51.840 Done too much?

00:57:52.440 I don't know.

00:57:52.740 That's not my issue.

00:57:54.820 So just leave that out.

00:57:57.240 Medical fentanyl, let me ask you,

00:58:01.060 do 100% of you support medical use

00:58:03.760 of fentanyl if there's not a good

00:58:07.300 alternative?

00:58:09.840 Right?

00:58:10.480 Yes.

00:58:11.720 So don't be an NPC and bring that up

00:58:14.380 because it's a distraction.

00:58:16.280 You're not helping.

00:58:17.420 If you want to make the argument

00:58:19.100 worse and more confused, just talk

00:58:22.420 about the medical stuff.

00:58:23.440 That's nothing.

00:58:24.520 Here's the second thing a lot of

00:58:26.180 people don't know, and I thought

00:58:27.300 they did, but they don't.

00:58:29.280 Did you know that people do score

00:58:31.380 fentanyl directly?

00:58:34.200 Did you know that addicts, by the

00:58:35.440 way, there was a time when I didn't

00:58:37.000 know this either, but addicts do go

00:58:39.140 and look for fentanyl.

00:58:41.020 They say, can you sell me some

00:58:42.600 fentanyl?

00:58:44.040 And the dealer says, I've got some

00:58:45.660 fentanyl.

00:58:46.840 Here's your fentanyl.

00:58:48.420 And the dealer says, that's exactly

00:58:49.880 what I want, like I use every time.

00:58:52.420 And I'll go shoot up my fentanyl.

00:58:54.860 Does that guy die?

00:58:57.580 Does that guy die?

00:58:59.040 The guy who bought his fentanyl?

00:59:01.640 Usually no.

00:59:03.100 Do you know why he doesn't die?

00:59:04.720 Because he knows it's fentanyl.

00:59:07.020 Right?

00:59:09.200 Right.

00:59:10.380 If I put a wild live tiger in your

00:59:14.020 house and said, don't go in there,

00:59:16.720 there's a wild tiger in your house,

00:59:18.240 well, you'd probably be fine because

00:59:19.740 you wouldn't go in there.

00:59:20.880 But if you didn't know, you might go

00:59:23.120 in there and the tiger kills you.

00:59:24.800 It's the people who get fentanyl and

00:59:26.160 don't know it because they don't know

00:59:28.320 they're overdosing.

00:59:29.740 If you have fentanyl, you've probably

00:59:32.300 learned what is too much.

00:59:35.320 You know, maybe by observation or some

00:59:37.180 other way.

00:59:37.680 I don't know.

00:59:38.020 However addicts learn.

00:59:40.160 But they also know how to sit.

00:59:43.140 Did you know this?

00:59:46.200 One of the reasons that people die of

00:59:48.120 fentanyl is they'll be sitting in a

00:59:50.260 chair and they pass out and their head

00:59:54.740 nods down like this.

00:59:57.020 And it cuts off their oxygen and they

00:59:58.940 don't wake up.

00:59:59.520 So if you knew that you could lay

01:00:02.920 back so that your head didn't fall

01:00:06.040 forward, your odds of dying go way

01:00:09.080 down.

01:00:13.580 So that's just one part of the

01:00:16.460 technique.

01:00:17.240 So the point is, we're not worried.

01:00:20.100 We're not worried about medical

01:00:21.900 fentanyl.

01:00:23.080 Let's be really clear about that.

01:00:25.020 I'm not asking for any changes in

01:00:27.480 medical fentanyl.

01:00:28.540 Maybe some are needed, but I don't

01:00:31.080 know about them.

01:00:32.300 So I'm not asking for that.

01:00:34.460 And I'm not asking for, well, I'm not

01:00:38.620 saying there's a big problem with

01:00:39.800 people who are intentionally trying to

01:00:41.760 get fentanyl.

01:00:43.280 The problem is the accidental stuff and

01:00:45.300 the stuff that looks like candy that's

01:00:47.280 killing people.

01:00:49.860 Apparently there's a new fentanyl pill

01:00:52.740 that looks like it's made to look like

01:00:55.840 candy, and apparently it's killed a

01:00:58.340 number of people under 15 recently.

01:01:00.620 Not a coincidence.

01:01:01.700 Rainbow, what's it called?

01:01:03.660 Rainbow cakes?

01:01:06.640 Or rainbow pills?

01:01:09.740 Or something like that.

01:01:10.740 Rainbow drugs of some kind.

01:01:13.440 So those are the things you need to

01:01:16.260 know.

01:01:17.320 Now you are up to date on fentanyl.

01:01:20.180 If you attack the cartels, no one will

01:01:25.160 come to their defense.

01:01:26.500 Now if you attack the cartels, the risk

01:01:29.040 is that they would attack the homeland

01:01:30.640 through terrorist acts.

01:01:34.940 That's why we should negotiate with the

01:01:36.980 cartels.

01:01:38.640 So as much as I want the heads of the

01:01:40.640 cartels to be killed, I would still very

01:01:44.920 happily settle for negotiating some kind of

01:01:48.260 climb down from their business.

01:01:50.500 In fact, I would hire the cartels to keep

01:01:53.920 the other cartels, I would hire one cartel

01:01:56.080 to keep the other cartels out of this

01:01:58.440 business.

01:01:59.300 Because you know, if one stopped, the

01:02:00.940 other ones would pick it up.

01:02:02.520 So I'd hire this Sinaloa cartel to be the

01:02:08.220 enforcers to kill the other cartels if

01:02:11.420 they try to sell fentanyl.

01:02:12.700 And then I would give the Sinaloa cartel

01:02:15.840 full control of the border crossing

01:02:18.860 business.

01:02:20.800 And then I would negotiate with them.

01:02:24.560 Maybe.

01:02:25.720 You know, I'm just talking off the top of

01:02:27.120 my head.

01:02:27.720 But we have to do things that we've never

01:02:29.500 done before.

01:02:30.740 And it might be that you need to negotiate

01:02:32.480 with terrorists.

01:02:33.860 You might need to negotiate with terrorists.

01:02:36.040 Now we say we never do that, but of course

01:02:38.740 we do.

01:02:39.120 There are heads of state we negotiate with

01:02:42.360 and we're practically terrorists.

01:02:44.280 Of course we do.

01:02:45.080 We negotiate with Iran.

01:02:47.120 What's the difference?

01:02:48.980 Okay, there's a difference.

01:02:54.340 Do you think our intelligence community

01:02:55.780 isn't already hiring the Sinaloa cartel

01:02:57.720 to sell fentanyl?

01:02:59.660 No, I don't.

01:03:01.140 I do not think that they're doing that.

01:03:03.840 I do think that maybe intelligence agencies

01:03:07.700 are using cartels for some kinds

01:03:10.160 of mutual benefit.

01:03:12.220 That's probably true.

01:03:15.500 So you actually think that

01:03:16.940 our American intelligence,

01:03:19.080 American intelligence?

01:03:20.480 You think the CIA is helping the cartels

01:03:23.380 sell fentanyl into the United States.

01:03:27.660 And what would be the reason for that?

01:03:30.780 Okay, somebody actually thinks,

01:03:32.160 is saying that, oh, a lot of you do.

01:03:33.760 Oh, my God.

01:03:36.920 Why?

01:03:37.900 To make black ops money?

01:03:39.520 No.

01:03:42.900 So there's some people that think

01:03:44.480 the CIA is funding itself with fentanyl.

01:03:47.980 Well, that would explain a lot, wouldn't it?

01:03:50.660 I don't believe that's true.

01:03:52.700 Because, so let me just say that.

01:03:55.620 So I don't believe that's true.

01:03:57.440 I do understand that there's a history

01:03:59.400 of the CIA getting dirty money

01:04:01.340 in sort of that kind of context.

01:04:04.920 It could be true.

01:04:06.580 I don't think it's true

01:04:07.700 because of the number of people

01:04:08.960 dying from fentanyl.

01:04:11.240 See, if you found out that the CIA

01:04:13.000 was pushing cocaine,

01:04:16.220 you'd say to yourself,

01:04:17.720 I hate that,

01:04:18.520 but you'd probably get over it.

01:04:20.680 If you heard they were pushing fentanyl,

01:04:22.380 you wouldn't get over it.

01:04:24.100 Am I right?

01:04:27.280 Am I right?

01:04:27.980 If you heard that the CIA was dealing

01:04:31.160 or helping dealing cocaine,

01:04:35.020 I think you can get over it.

01:04:37.360 Because you're like,

01:04:37.880 oh, it's a dirty business.

01:04:39.600 But if you heard that they were selling fentanyl

01:04:41.580 into the United States

01:04:42.520 and it killed a quarter of a million Americans knowingly,

01:04:46.420 no.

01:04:47.860 No.

01:04:48.360 They couldn't risk being caught with that.

01:04:51.240 That would be too much of a risk.

01:04:53.100 Plus, that would make them traitors.

01:04:56.360 It wouldn't matter

01:04:58.400 why they were getting the money

01:04:59.780 under your scenario.

01:05:01.160 It wouldn't matter

01:05:01.780 why they thought

01:05:02.800 they had some good reason

01:05:03.800 to get this money.

01:05:05.560 They would still just be traitors.

01:05:07.780 Do you think there are that many people

01:05:09.040 in the CIA

01:05:09.540 who are literally just traitors?

01:05:12.160 I don't know.

01:05:13.380 I doubt it.

01:05:15.100 Somebody says yes.

01:05:16.080 A lot of you think yes.

01:05:17.180 You think that the CIA

01:05:18.180 is filled with traitors.

01:05:21.000 You're harsh.

01:05:22.680 All right, I'm not going to go that far.

01:05:23.840 I can't go that far.

01:05:26.380 Because too many people

01:05:27.280 would know about an operation like that.

01:05:28.840 There would be a whistleblower in there somewhere.

01:05:30.880 Too many whistleblowers.

01:05:33.020 All right, well,

01:05:33.420 I think we've reached a peak distrust.

01:05:38.920 Peak distrust.

01:05:40.360 And maybe that's good.

01:05:41.640 I'm not even sure that's bad.

01:05:44.300 When we talk about how it's terrible

01:05:46.140 that we're not trusting our institutions anymore,

01:05:48.440 do you say to yourself,

01:05:50.400 oh, that's bad.

01:05:51.920 That's bad that we don't trust

01:05:53.160 our institutions anymore.

01:05:54.640 I don't say that.

01:05:56.480 I feel like we reached

01:05:57.760 a higher level of awareness.

01:06:00.600 I'm not sure that's ever bad.

01:06:05.740 All right, well,

01:06:07.600 it appears that I managed to babble

01:06:09.220 for over an hour

01:06:10.160 with no preparation whatsoever.

01:06:13.380 I've told you before

01:06:14.400 that that's a learned skill,

01:06:16.860 if I ever mentioned that.

01:06:19.480 Of course I have.

01:06:20.660 Too many times.

01:06:22.080 Yeah, the Dale Carnegie course

01:06:23.300 teaches you to do

01:06:24.220 what you just watched.

01:06:27.120 I'm going to make a statement

01:06:28.260 that I think is true.

01:06:29.680 It might be an exaggeration.

01:06:31.180 But I think this is actually true.

01:06:32.900 I think everybody who took

01:06:34.440 the Dale Carnegie course

01:06:35.640 that I took

01:06:36.340 could have awakened

01:06:39.400 10 minutes before

01:06:40.880 a live,

01:06:43.100 one-hour live stream

01:06:44.760 and filled it.

01:06:46.120 And you wouldn't know.

01:06:48.080 It's actually a skill.

01:06:49.820 So that is a really valuable

01:06:52.960 part of the talent stack.

01:06:55.560 I mean, imagine you were

01:06:56.700 in my place

01:06:57.340 two minutes before

01:07:00.820 I went live.

01:07:02.560 Well, actually,

01:07:03.180 when I went live,

01:07:03.860 I didn't have any idea

01:07:04.600 what I was going to do.

01:07:05.820 I didn't have even

01:07:06.940 a tentative plan.

01:07:08.620 I had no idea

01:07:09.640 where it was going to go.

01:07:10.400 But I also didn't worry

01:07:12.100 because what the Dale Carnegie

01:07:14.600 course teaches you to do

01:07:16.600 is have, you know,

01:07:17.920 little packets of stories

01:07:19.740 in case you need

01:07:21.060 to whip one out.

01:07:22.560 Now, I was lucky this time

01:07:24.580 because somebody asked

01:07:25.260 about hypnosis.

01:07:26.780 And as soon as you asked

01:07:27.540 about hypnosis,

01:07:28.280 I thought,

01:07:28.680 oh, I could do 45 minutes

01:07:30.740 on hypnosis

01:07:31.360 with no preparation whatsoever.

01:07:34.100 So I did.

01:07:36.200 But you should always have,

01:07:38.020 you know,

01:07:39.080 your 10-minute story,

01:07:40.220 your 45-minute story.

01:07:42.260 So you should always

01:07:43.280 be walking around

01:07:44.100 with little packets

01:07:45.500 of things you could use

01:07:47.880 in times like this.

01:07:49.900 Yeah.

01:07:52.060 What time did I fall asleep

01:07:53.480 last night?

01:07:56.220 Last night,

01:07:56.980 I fell asleep at

01:07:58.200 probably 10 p.m.

01:08:03.240 then again at

01:08:04.600 12 p.m.,

01:08:06.780 1.30,

01:08:07.800 again at 2.30,

01:08:09.760 3.30,

01:08:10.540 4.30,

01:08:11.320 and 5.30.

01:08:16.100 Falling asleep is easy.

01:08:18.520 I hate being asleep.

01:08:20.860 I'm physically uncomfortable

01:08:22.520 when I sleep.

01:08:23.600 I just don't like it.

01:08:24.820 I just hate it.

01:08:26.100 Yeah, sometimes, you know,

01:08:26.980 you use the restroom,

01:08:28.140 sometimes...

01:08:32.460 Anyway.

01:08:33.680 It's one thing

01:08:34.160 after another.

01:08:37.160 Lucid dreaming?

01:08:38.180 No.

01:08:39.380 No, I...

01:08:40.380 By...

01:08:40.980 By about 2 a.m.,

01:08:43.680 I didn't want

01:08:44.560 to be sleeping anymore.

01:08:46.120 I just desperately

01:08:47.020 wanted the night

01:08:48.080 to be over,

01:08:48.760 and I just wanted

01:08:49.300 to be awake.

01:08:50.380 I don't like sleep.

01:08:51.520 I don't like it at all.

01:08:55.580 Your whole life

01:08:56.600 were getting worse.

01:08:58.340 Oh, getting worse.

01:09:00.320 The...

01:09:01.040 I know how to sleep.

01:09:03.000 Right?

01:09:04.040 So, if you asked me

01:09:05.540 to do an essay,

01:09:07.180 Scott, do you have

01:09:08.180 a problem sleeping?

01:09:09.300 Would you know

01:09:09.740 how to fix it?

01:09:10.780 Yes.

01:09:12.180 Yes, I know

01:09:12.800 how to fix it.

01:09:14.060 It would be easy.

01:09:15.380 Don't go to Starbucks

01:09:16.520 at 3 in the afternoon

01:09:18.280 and have a giant

01:09:19.460 caffeinated beverage.

01:09:21.300 It's not really hard.

01:09:23.360 That's all it would take.

01:09:24.920 And yesterday,

01:09:25.680 I got busy

01:09:26.220 and I didn't exercise.

01:09:28.940 Have I ever told you

01:09:30.000 my 2 out of 3 theory

01:09:32.860 of happiness?

01:09:35.080 Have I mentioned that?

01:09:36.440 The 2 out of 3 theory?

01:09:38.980 The 2 out of 3 theory

01:09:40.300 goes like this.

01:09:42.040 I have to do at least

01:09:43.080 2 of the following

01:09:44.160 3 things

01:09:44.840 to have a good day.

01:09:47.100 I've got to have

01:09:47.880 productive work

01:09:49.000 where I say to myself,

01:09:50.520 I did some good work today.

01:09:52.100 I've got to have exercise

01:09:54.420 and some physical intimacy.

01:09:59.720 Now, if you can't have

01:10:01.080 2 of those 3,

01:10:02.620 and it doesn't matter

01:10:03.160 which 2,

01:10:03.900 I don't consider it

01:10:05.060 a good day.

01:10:06.960 So yesterday,

01:10:08.040 I had work.

01:10:11.180 Some of you

01:10:11.880 were following

01:10:12.500 my escapades.

01:10:15.600 So you've seen

01:10:16.200 the trouble

01:10:16.560 I've been getting into

01:10:17.460 in the news.

01:10:19.480 So if you're following

01:10:20.760 the news

01:10:21.280 and trending things,

01:10:22.320 you know that

01:10:22.760 I've been busy

01:10:23.400 for the last few days.

01:10:25.040 The press has been

01:10:26.240 just calling me

01:10:27.960 all day long.

01:10:28.860 All day long,

01:10:29.600 my phone is begging

01:10:30.800 can you do an interview?

01:10:31.840 I'm not doing

01:10:32.460 any interviews.

01:10:33.500 I'm just not going

01:10:34.460 to do any

01:10:34.880 on the topic

01:10:35.500 of the cancellations.

01:10:37.420 But lots of requests.

01:10:39.900 Oh, by the way,

01:10:40.500 CNN asked me

01:10:41.340 to be on.

01:10:42.960 Does that surprise you?

01:10:46.060 Smirkanish.

01:10:47.700 I've told you before

01:10:48.660 that Smirkanish

01:10:49.480 is the real deal.

01:10:51.180 So even though

01:10:52.060 he's on CNN,

01:10:53.600 he's actually

01:10:54.340 just Smirkanish.

01:10:56.500 As far as I can tell.

01:10:58.200 As far as I can tell,

01:10:59.320 no matter what

01:11:00.000 CNN was doing,

01:11:02.120 Smirkanish

01:11:02.760 was just being

01:11:03.440 Smirkanish.

01:11:04.920 He's the only one

01:11:05.820 that I would say

01:11:06.480 that about.

01:11:08.520 Really?

01:11:09.120 Well,

01:11:09.420 maybe that's too far.

01:11:10.580 There's probably

01:11:10.880 some others.

01:11:11.340 probably some others.

01:11:18.480 But if you were

01:11:19.420 wondering if CNN

01:11:20.340 has changed

01:11:20.980 their editorial policy,

01:11:24.200 they didn't ask me

01:11:25.260 on for anything

01:11:26.000 for several years.

01:11:28.520 Several years

01:11:29.280 they did not invite me.

01:11:30.560 But now I guess

01:11:31.780 I could be invited

01:11:33.140 under these.

01:11:34.020 And by the way,

01:11:34.600 the story that I was

01:11:35.480 going to tell

01:11:36.020 would not have been

01:11:37.660 necessarily

01:11:38.320 a CNN

01:11:40.380 appropriate story.

01:11:43.040 They were asking

01:11:44.080 me to be on

01:11:44.920 on the topic

01:11:46.040 of being cancelled

01:11:46.940 in newspapers.

01:11:48.240 At the same time,

01:11:49.400 they knew the story

01:11:50.360 was in the context

01:11:51.820 of my anti-ESG stuff.

01:11:55.040 So just think about this.

01:11:57.080 CNN today,

01:11:58.560 with their current

01:11:59.180 management,

01:12:00.280 was going to have

01:12:00.960 me on,

01:12:02.340 they invited me,

01:12:03.360 to talk about

01:12:04.980 anti-ESG

01:12:06.060 and getting cancelled.

01:12:07.820 Although I have

01:12:08.740 not connected

01:12:09.340 the cancellation

01:12:10.100 with the ESG.

01:12:11.340 So I haven't

01:12:11.940 made that connection.

01:12:13.440 I don't know

01:12:14.020 why it was cancelled.

01:12:14.940 It could have been

01:12:15.380 any reason.

01:12:18.000 But just think

01:12:18.760 about that.

01:12:19.940 And so I turned

01:12:21.020 them down,

01:12:21.580 but only because

01:12:22.240 I'm turning everybody

01:12:22.940 down.

01:12:23.880 And I had to

01:12:25.960 praise the producer.

01:12:28.420 I think I caught

01:12:29.060 her off guard.

01:12:30.160 I said,

01:12:30.500 you know,

01:12:30.800 I've got to just

01:12:31.300 give you a compliment.

01:12:32.700 I think you're

01:12:33.280 new management

01:12:33.800 is totally working

01:12:34.700 and I don't think

01:12:35.680 I would have been

01:12:36.200 invited except for

01:12:37.940 your new change

01:12:39.120 of direction

01:12:39.640 and I've got to

01:12:40.480 give you some

01:12:41.100 respect for that.

01:12:42.960 It completely

01:12:43.520 threw her,

01:12:44.100 I think.

01:12:44.520 She didn't know

01:12:44.920 what to say.

01:12:46.120 I don't think

01:12:46.800 she was expecting

01:12:47.400 the compliment.

01:12:50.820 Could be a setup,

01:12:52.400 except that it

01:12:53.140 was Smirconish.

01:12:55.400 See,

01:12:55.940 if it had been,

01:12:57.760 say,

01:12:58.020 Don Lemon,

01:12:59.700 then I might say

01:13:00.420 to myself,

01:13:00.780 oh,

01:13:01.220 you're going to

01:13:02.360 trick me somehow.

01:13:04.640 But Smirconish

01:13:05.600 is just a straight

01:13:06.580 shooter,

01:13:07.040 so it would have

01:13:07.740 been exactly

01:13:08.320 what it looked like.

01:13:09.140 I think he would

01:13:09.620 have asked tough

01:13:10.180 questions,

01:13:11.380 which was,

01:13:12.460 that's his job.

01:13:18.300 When was I last

01:13:19.300 on Smirconish?

01:13:20.900 A few years ago.

01:13:22.900 I've been on

01:13:23.560 two or three times,

01:13:24.520 I can't remember.

01:13:24.960 I think there was

01:13:27.540 one other thing

01:13:28.060 I was going to

01:13:28.440 tell you,

01:13:28.860 but I don't

01:13:30.920 remember.

01:13:31.460 Oh,

01:13:32.420 how many of you

01:13:33.440 watched The Five

01:13:35.460 yesterday?

01:13:37.860 And did you

01:13:38.560 watch it all the

01:13:39.160 way to the end

01:13:39.840 in the handoff

01:13:40.560 to Bret Baier?

01:13:44.220 If you watched

01:13:45.080 it to the very

01:13:45.980 end,

01:13:47.100 Bret Baier

01:13:47.720 did the funniest

01:13:49.240 thing I've ever

01:13:50.380 seen on the

01:13:51.240 news.

01:13:52.060 And he did it

01:13:52.620 with a straight

01:13:53.180 face.

01:13:53.580 And the beauty

01:13:55.220 is you don't

01:13:55.780 expect him to

01:13:56.540 deliver the

01:13:58.500 humor,

01:13:59.760 especially this

01:14:00.520 particular joke.

01:14:02.840 But I'll give you

01:14:03.420 the setup in case

01:14:04.160 you missed it.

01:14:04.980 I was freaking

01:14:05.860 laughing.

01:14:06.680 It was tremendous.

01:14:08.480 So during the

01:14:09.760 handoff,

01:14:10.280 the people at The

01:14:10.880 Five will bring

01:14:12.380 on a split screen

01:14:13.200 with Bret Baier,

01:14:14.080 whose show is up

01:14:14.700 next.

01:14:15.180 Now,

01:14:15.380 Bret is the hard

01:14:16.820 news guy,

01:14:17.440 right?

01:14:17.720 So he's just the

01:14:18.440 news.

01:14:19.100 And The Five is

01:14:20.120 pure fun and

01:14:21.160 opinion.

01:14:22.120 And so they

01:14:24.400 had a little

01:14:24.740 fun little

01:14:25.180 handoff there.

01:14:26.500 So Jesse

01:14:27.320 Waters had just

01:14:28.160 announced earlier

01:14:28.900 in the show

01:14:29.360 that his other

01:14:30.860 show,

01:14:31.300 later,

01:14:32.080 his special

01:14:33.240 guest would

01:14:33.880 be Scott

01:14:34.560 Baio.

01:14:35.620 And not the

01:14:36.860 fake Scott

01:14:37.400 Baio,

01:14:37.680 but the real

01:14:38.060 one.

01:14:38.580 I guess there

01:14:39.020 are some

01:14:39.220 fake ones.

01:14:41.220 So Jesse

01:14:41.840 had just said

01:14:42.920 that.

01:14:43.620 And Bret Baier

01:14:44.100 comes on with a

01:14:45.080 complete straight

01:14:45.740 face.

01:14:46.760 He says,

01:14:47.460 you can't

01:14:47.800 wait to watch

01:14:49.100 Jesse's show

01:14:50.040 and Scott

01:14:51.180 Baio.

01:14:53.420 He said it

01:14:54.220 with a straight

01:14:54.800 face.

01:14:55.860 It was just

01:14:56.880 fucking awesome.

01:14:58.760 And Jesse

01:15:00.240 was still on

01:15:00.900 the screen.

01:15:01.900 And you saw

01:15:02.300 Jesse just

01:15:02.920 lose it,

01:15:03.960 because he knew

01:15:04.640 how funny that

01:15:05.300 was.

01:15:06.120 Like, you know,

01:15:06.760 basically laughing

01:15:07.500 at his own

01:15:09.140 technique.

01:15:11.040 Now, the thing

01:15:11.900 I love about

01:15:12.480 Jesse Waters is,

01:15:14.340 and I don't know

01:15:15.000 how he arrived

01:15:15.880 here.

01:15:16.980 Like, I don't

01:15:17.420 know how he

01:15:17.820 arrived at this

01:15:18.520 place, but he

01:15:19.920 does a self-aware

01:15:22.220 version of a

01:15:24.320 biased Republican

01:15:25.740 that is so

01:15:27.380 fun to watch.

01:15:29.280 Like, sometimes

01:15:30.160 it's a joke, but

01:15:31.880 there's often a

01:15:32.600 point in there

01:15:33.220 that he really

01:15:33.760 means, and

01:15:35.160 sometimes you

01:15:36.200 can't tell how

01:15:36.680 much is a joke

01:15:37.420 and how much

01:15:37.900 is the point,

01:15:38.860 and you really

01:15:39.320 have to follow

01:15:39.860 it.

01:15:40.820 And I think

01:15:41.480 he has, and

01:15:42.320 by the way,

01:15:42.720 I think that

01:15:45.400 Greg Gottfeld's

01:15:46.520 influence,

01:15:48.520 on the rest

01:15:49.060 of the five

01:15:49.620 is just so

01:15:50.140 obvious.

01:15:51.180 You know,

01:15:51.300 they've all

01:15:51.860 tried to take

01:15:52.420 their humor

01:15:53.800 gene up a

01:15:54.400 level, and

01:15:54.840 he's managed

01:15:55.600 to do that

01:15:56.160 for all the

01:15:56.840 regulars.

01:15:58.940 Do you

01:15:59.140 remember when

01:15:59.660 Harold Ford

01:16:02.280 just started

01:16:03.860 being a

01:16:04.360 regular guest,

01:16:05.620 and he seemed

01:16:06.060 kind of stiff?

01:16:07.640 And you're

01:16:07.940 like, oh,

01:16:08.500 Harold, you

01:16:09.020 always say the

01:16:09.640 same, like,

01:16:11.800 you know,

01:16:12.060 monotone sort

01:16:13.000 of thing,

01:16:13.520 like, get some

01:16:14.520 personality.

01:16:15.460 But I think

01:16:15.920 Greg and the

01:16:16.660 rest of the

01:16:17.000 staff, you

01:16:17.660 know, finally

01:16:18.240 brought him

01:16:20.100 into the

01:16:20.440 whole fold,

01:16:20.960 and that was

01:16:21.220 great.

01:16:22.000 Like, he's a

01:16:22.480 really strong,

01:16:23.160 strong member

01:16:24.480 of the cast.

01:16:25.160 And Jessica

01:16:26.360 Tarlov, she's

01:16:29.000 also, like,

01:16:30.460 raised her

01:16:30.880 game.

01:16:31.240 She's very

01:16:31.760 entertaining

01:16:32.360 now.

01:16:33.460 That show

01:16:34.060 is really

01:16:34.380 tremendous.

01:16:36.400 There was

01:16:36.620 some point I

01:16:37.140 was going to

01:16:37.400 make there,

01:16:37.840 but I think

01:16:38.160 I got...

01:16:39.660 Was there a

01:16:40.320 point I was

01:16:40.780 making that I

01:16:41.340 got sidetracked

01:16:42.240 on?

01:16:42.440 I feel

01:16:44.280 like I

01:16:44.560 completely

01:16:44.960 missed my

01:16:45.420 point.

01:16:46.460 Oh, the

01:16:46.740 point was

01:16:47.200 that Jesse

01:16:48.280 does a

01:16:48.860 self-aware

01:16:49.860 character,

01:16:51.920 so that when

01:16:53.040 Brett Baer

01:16:53.780 was giving

01:16:55.480 him some

01:16:56.840 shit about

01:16:58.240 the, let's

01:16:59.300 say, the

01:16:59.640 weight, the

01:17:01.100 political weight

01:17:01.860 of his guest,

01:17:03.520 that even

01:17:04.020 Jesse thought

01:17:04.560 that was

01:17:04.780 pretty funny.

01:17:05.860 So that

01:17:06.580 was like my

01:17:07.240 favorite three

01:17:10.060 seconds of

01:17:10.740 television in a

01:17:11.980 year.

01:17:12.440 It was

01:17:13.260 just so

01:17:13.760 well-executed.

01:17:20.860 You think

01:17:21.820 Jessica

01:17:22.340 Tarloff is

01:17:25.340 ridiculous?

01:17:26.700 Her opinions?

01:17:27.660 I don't think

01:17:27.980 her opinions

01:17:28.380 are ridiculous.

01:17:29.360 I think they

01:17:29.840 just mirror

01:17:30.340 Republican,

01:17:32.100 pretty standard

01:17:32.880 Republican

01:17:33.420 opinions.

01:17:35.080 I think she

01:17:36.040 does a good

01:17:36.440 job.

01:17:39.580 The thing

01:17:40.300 you want

01:17:40.800 is does

01:17:41.300 she have

01:17:41.660 the fight,

01:17:43.140 does she

01:17:43.560 have the

01:17:43.800 personality,

01:17:44.760 the charisma,

01:17:45.880 the humor,

01:17:47.520 does she

01:17:48.760 get it?

01:17:50.540 And she

01:17:50.860 does.

01:17:52.040 So,

01:17:52.560 that's

01:17:54.720 pretty,

01:17:56.140 so I give her

01:17:56.820 credit.

01:17:57.480 I think she

01:17:57.820 does a great

01:17:58.200 job.

01:18:01.080 McCarthy

01:18:01.640 specifically

01:18:02.440 called out

01:18:02.960 China concerning

01:18:03.920 fentanyl.

01:18:04.440 Oh,

01:18:05.060 oh, I'm

01:18:05.400 sorry.

01:18:05.720 Oh, I take

01:18:07.080 everything back.

01:18:08.520 Oh, here I

01:18:09.640 was criticizing

01:18:10.480 McCarthy, but it

01:18:11.280 turns out he

01:18:12.060 called out

01:18:12.760 China.

01:18:13.880 Oh, well, I

01:18:14.640 guess we're

01:18:14.960 fine now.

01:18:16.840 He called

01:18:17.600 them out.

01:18:18.940 Fucking

01:18:19.420 nothing.

01:18:21.400 Fucking

01:18:21.880 nothing.

01:18:23.720 Do you know

01:18:24.220 what being

01:18:24.580 serious about

01:18:25.520 stopping their

01:18:27.820 fentanyl trade

01:18:28.480 would look like?

01:18:29.800 Here's what it

01:18:30.420 would look like.

01:18:31.700 China, we've

01:18:32.740 asked you to

01:18:33.260 stop, shut

01:18:34.700 down your

01:18:35.200 internal

01:18:35.840 fentanyl

01:18:37.040 dealers.

01:18:38.080 It's not

01:18:38.700 optional.

01:18:40.460 If you don't

01:18:41.200 do it, we're

01:18:41.620 going to do

01:18:41.920 it for you.

01:18:43.440 It's not

01:18:44.040 optional.

01:18:46.220 Because right

01:18:47.060 now, China

01:18:47.540 thinks it's

01:18:48.020 optional, don't

01:18:49.040 they?

01:18:50.160 They think it's

01:18:50.940 optional.

01:18:52.000 Now, they

01:18:52.520 might have to

01:18:53.040 come up with

01:18:53.500 some new

01:18:54.280 threat or

01:18:54.900 penalty to

01:18:55.600 us, but

01:18:56.480 you have to

01:18:56.820 tell them,

01:18:57.560 whatever happens

01:18:58.300 after this,

01:18:58.880 we're going

01:18:59.180 to deal

01:18:59.420 with that

01:18:59.720 later.

01:19:00.740 But I

01:19:01.240 want to

01:19:01.480 tell you

01:19:01.720 one thing.

01:19:02.960 In 30

01:19:03.500 days, your

01:19:04.480 internal

01:19:04.920 dealers are

01:19:05.480 all going

01:19:05.720 to be

01:19:05.900 dead, plus

01:19:07.640 whoever was

01:19:08.180 standing next

01:19:08.760 to them.

01:19:10.160 All right?

01:19:10.640 That part

01:19:11.300 is not up

01:19:14.360 for debate.

01:19:15.520 You can do

01:19:16.080 it yourself.

01:19:17.400 You can do

01:19:18.060 it yourself.

01:19:18.700 That's our

01:19:19.040 choice.

01:19:19.920 Our first

01:19:20.400 choice is you

01:19:20.940 take care of

01:19:21.420 yourself.

01:19:22.240 But if you

01:19:22.720 don't, in

01:19:23.780 30 days, we're

01:19:25.440 going to go

01:19:25.860 wet.

01:19:26.180 And there's

01:19:28.500 nothing you

01:19:28.980 can do to

01:19:29.340 stop us, and

01:19:31.180 I know you're

01:19:31.740 going to

01:19:31.940 threaten us

01:19:32.420 with all

01:19:32.860 kinds of

01:19:33.400 costs, and

01:19:35.900 we will

01:19:36.740 accept that.

01:19:38.480 Whatever it

01:19:39.140 is you're

01:19:39.480 going to do

01:19:39.720 to us because

01:19:40.320 of this, we

01:19:41.320 accept.

01:19:42.460 But the

01:19:43.160 thing you need

01:19:43.580 to know is

01:19:44.780 there's no

01:19:45.280 way in 30

01:19:46.160 days those

01:19:47.160 guys will

01:19:47.620 still be free

01:19:48.520 and alive and

01:19:49.180 doing business.

01:19:50.220 You understand

01:19:50.780 that, right?

01:19:51.280 And then

01:19:52.320 they would

01:19:52.620 say, oh, we

01:19:57.020 have nukes

01:19:57.780 and we're

01:19:58.640 going to

01:19:59.240 withdraw our

01:20:00.360 diplomats, and

01:20:01.240 if you did

01:20:01.700 that, we

01:20:02.660 would have to

01:20:03.280 maybe murder

01:20:03.980 some of your

01:20:04.520 people, and

01:20:05.260 we'd round up

01:20:06.260 some of your

01:20:06.600 people.

01:20:06.980 And then you

01:20:07.320 say to them,

01:20:08.720 as clearly as

01:20:09.540 you can, we

01:20:10.900 understand.

01:20:12.500 We understand.

01:20:16.640 But in 30

01:20:17.520 days, they're

01:20:18.880 all going to

01:20:19.260 be dead.

01:20:19.640 That's the

01:20:21.040 only part you

01:20:21.480 need to know.

01:20:22.620 There's one

01:20:23.120 fact here, and

01:20:24.000 only one fact

01:20:24.820 that you need

01:20:25.280 to deal with.

01:20:26.900 They're all

01:20:27.480 going to be

01:20:27.760 dead in 30

01:20:28.320 days.

01:20:30.300 So you can

01:20:30.940 do it yourself,

01:20:32.200 or you can

01:20:33.120 wait for us

01:20:33.640 to do it.

01:20:35.240 And you

01:20:35.820 will have to

01:20:36.320 respond, and

01:20:36.940 we understand

01:20:37.520 that, because

01:20:38.180 you're a

01:20:38.480 sovereign country.

01:20:39.540 We do

01:20:40.120 respect you,

01:20:40.800 China.

01:20:41.260 We do know

01:20:41.880 you'll have to

01:20:42.400 respond.

01:20:43.560 But that's

01:20:44.180 where you're

01:20:44.520 going.

01:20:45.320 You're not

01:20:45.660 going anywhere

01:20:46.260 else.

01:20:47.100 You're not

01:20:47.440 changing the

01:20:48.000 topic.

01:20:49.220 You're not

01:20:49.620 distracting us.

01:20:51.140 This problem

01:20:51.760 ends in 30

01:20:52.480 days.

01:20:53.780 And you

01:20:54.340 just get to

01:20:54.880 choose how

01:20:55.280 it ends.

01:20:57.020 I'm going

01:20:57.520 to choose

01:20:57.880 that it

01:20:58.220 ends.

01:20:58.660 You get

01:20:59.060 to choose

01:20:59.440 how.

01:21:01.860 And if

01:21:02.540 you want

01:21:02.820 to work

01:21:03.100 with us,

01:21:03.500 we'll work

01:21:03.880 with you.

01:21:04.740 But it

01:21:05.300 ends right

01:21:06.560 now.

01:21:07.840 Then you

01:21:08.360 say to

01:21:08.700 Mexico,

01:21:10.320 Mexico, we

01:21:11.180 know you

01:21:11.500 don't have

01:21:11.800 control over

01:21:12.460 the cartels.

01:21:14.680 We know

01:21:15.300 that when we

01:21:15.860 invade your

01:21:16.420 country, which

01:21:17.040 we are,

01:21:18.180 which we

01:21:18.620 are, let

01:21:19.380 me be

01:21:19.640 clear, we're

01:21:20.120 going to

01:21:20.300 invade your

01:21:20.760 country, militarily.

01:21:23.980 We know

01:21:24.600 that you

01:21:24.900 have to

01:21:25.240 complain.

01:21:26.180 We know

01:21:26.560 you have

01:21:26.820 to go to

01:21:27.120 the United

01:21:27.420 Nations.

01:21:27.980 We know

01:21:28.200 you have

01:21:28.440 to do

01:21:28.640 everything you

01:21:29.160 need to

01:21:29.420 do.

01:21:30.220 But here's

01:21:30.880 what we

01:21:31.160 want you

01:21:31.480 to know.

01:21:32.620 We're

01:21:33.000 going to

01:21:33.200 do it

01:21:33.420 anyway.

01:21:35.260 We know

01:21:35.980 that this

01:21:36.820 is immoral

01:21:37.620 and unethical.

01:21:39.900 You might

01:21:40.480 argue.

01:21:41.380 We know

01:21:41.860 the innocent

01:21:42.280 people in

01:21:42.920 Mexico are

01:21:43.480 going to die

01:21:44.000 and we

01:21:44.320 regret that.

01:21:45.380 We're going

01:21:45.800 to do it

01:21:46.140 anyway.

01:21:46.420 We know

01:21:48.360 this could

01:21:48.840 destroy

01:21:49.280 relations with

01:21:50.160 Mexico forever.

01:21:52.140 We're going

01:21:52.520 to do it

01:21:52.860 anyway.

01:21:53.900 We know

01:21:54.660 that there

01:21:56.380 are any

01:21:56.800 number of

01:21:57.340 bad repercussions

01:21:58.260 from this.

01:21:59.300 We're going

01:21:59.720 to do it

01:22:00.060 anyway.

01:22:00.880 We know

01:22:01.700 it might not

01:22:02.340 stop fentanyl.

01:22:03.680 They might

01:22:04.080 find some way

01:22:04.720 to reconstitute.

01:22:06.580 We're going

01:22:07.040 to do it

01:22:07.380 anyway.

01:22:07.660 So if

01:22:10.040 you don't

01:22:10.400 get to

01:22:10.680 that level

01:22:11.300 of decision

01:22:12.260 you're just

01:22:13.920 talking.

01:22:15.520 McCarthy's

01:22:15.980 just talking.

01:22:17.440 He's just

01:22:17.780 talking.

01:22:18.560 He's got

01:22:18.820 nothing.

01:22:20.940 So if

01:22:22.100 all you're

01:22:22.440 going to

01:22:22.560 do is

01:22:22.820 talk,

01:22:23.300 I don't

01:22:23.660 care how

01:22:24.100 tough you

01:22:24.540 talk,

01:22:25.760 you've got

01:22:26.360 to decide.

01:22:27.100 And they

01:22:27.360 have not

01:22:27.680 decided,

01:22:28.800 fuck

01:22:29.040 anything.

01:22:31.480 All right.

01:22:32.260 I think

01:22:32.580 that I'm

01:22:33.320 going to

01:22:33.420 leave it

01:22:33.640 on that

01:22:33.920 note.

01:22:35.220 But wait,

01:22:36.460 let's say

01:22:36.780 something happy

01:22:37.360 before we

01:22:37.820 go.

01:22:40.000 I need a

01:22:40.780 million of

01:22:41.280 you to

01:22:42.320 say you'll

01:22:43.300 be a single

01:22:43.840 issue voter.

01:22:45.260 You wouldn't

01:22:45.700 be bound.

01:22:47.400 You can

01:22:47.640 vote any

01:22:48.040 way you

01:22:48.300 want.

01:22:48.960 But I

01:22:49.380 need a

01:22:49.660 million of

01:22:50.120 you,

01:22:50.580 at least,

01:22:51.980 to say

01:22:52.600 you'll be a

01:22:53.780 single issue

01:22:54.300 voter.

01:22:55.540 Okay?

01:22:56.880 You need

01:22:57.600 your politician

01:22:58.340 to believe

01:22:58.900 it could

01:22:59.300 happen.

01:23:00.500 You can

01:23:01.060 vote any

01:23:01.500 way you

01:23:01.820 want once

01:23:02.260 you get

01:23:02.460 into the

01:23:02.740 voting booth.

01:23:03.440 Nobody's

01:23:03.840 going to

01:23:05.780 penalty.

01:23:06.420 There's

01:23:06.700 no penalty.

01:23:08.440 But I

01:23:08.940 want you

01:23:09.240 to be

01:23:09.440 able to

01:23:09.700 say it

01:23:10.060 in public

01:23:10.500 as often

01:23:11.120 as you

01:23:11.460 can.

01:23:12.240 Say it

01:23:12.520 in social

01:23:12.900 media,

01:23:13.460 tell your

01:23:13.800 friends,

01:23:15.040 and you

01:23:15.520 might even

01:23:15.820 be lying.

01:23:16.920 That's

01:23:17.200 okay.

01:23:18.220 Lying is

01:23:19.140 allowed for

01:23:20.640 this topic.

01:23:22.720 Lying is

01:23:23.240 allowed to

01:23:24.340 end fentanyl.

01:23:25.740 So if you

01:23:26.580 need to lie,

01:23:27.140 go ahead and

01:23:27.880 just say,

01:23:28.320 I'm going to

01:23:28.660 be a single

01:23:29.280 issue voter on

01:23:31.060 fentanyl.

01:23:32.380 If enough

01:23:33.140 people say

01:23:33.680 there will be

01:23:34.160 single issue

01:23:34.820 voters on

01:23:35.440 fentanyl,

01:23:36.420 we might

01:23:37.560 be able to

01:23:37.920 get our

01:23:38.560 politicians to

01:23:39.620 compete,

01:23:40.860 and that's

01:23:41.260 all I want.

01:23:41.840 I just want

01:23:42.200 them to

01:23:42.460 compete for

01:23:43.680 the best

01:23:44.020 fentanyl

01:23:44.460 plan.

01:23:47.380 Everybody in?

01:23:49.020 Good.

01:23:50.000 YouTube,

01:23:50.500 I'll talk

01:23:50.780 to you
