Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1914 Scott Adams： Rebound COVID, The Pelosi Fact Checking Problem And How To Air Dry A Cat

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and I'm so proud of you for making it here on time, because last night was, of course, a big party night, but you managed to rally.

00:00:17.500 You managed to rally. Good for you.

00:00:19.360 If you'd like to take it up a notch, all you need is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:27.040 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:00:30.940 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine today, the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:36.780 It's called the simultaneous sip. Go.

00:00:43.560 Ah, so good stuff.

00:00:46.780 Yes, if you hadn't noticed, I am wearing my Voldemort Zelensky, president of Ukraine, disguise. 0.56

00:00:56.660 Some of you thought you were watching the actual president of Ukraine.

00:01:01.320 No, it's me.

00:01:02.480 It's me. It's Scott. It's Scott.

00:01:05.120 I know. It looks exactly like him.

00:01:08.160 But let me tell you the weirdest thing that happened.

00:01:11.720 How many of you have noticed that the advertisements that you're fed are based on things you've said?

00:01:21.240 How many people have noticed that you were talking about something out loud, and the next thing you know, you get fed that?

00:01:27.840 Okay. You've all seen that.

00:01:29.620 Okay. All right.

00:01:31.300 I see your answers. Good.

00:01:33.360 All right. Now, next question.

00:01:35.280 So stop answering that. Here's your next question.

00:01:37.780 Has anybody had the experience of only thinking about something and then seeing the ad serve to you?

00:01:47.440 Has anybody yet thinking about it?

00:01:49.960 Okay. Let me give you my example from yesterday.

00:01:56.740 Now, I assume it's a coincidence, but let me give you my example, which is not that unusual.

00:02:04.060 All right.

00:02:04.720 So yesterday, I gave Snickers a bath.

00:02:08.420 I was all alone, and I don't know if I said anything out loud that would have suggested bath or anything else.

00:02:19.900 And then I dried her off with a towel.

00:02:22.520 But you know how hard it is to dry off a dog with a towel?

00:02:26.020 Even if you have infinite towels, for some reason, they don't dry off.

00:02:30.800 Right?

00:02:31.400 You just can't get the water off them.

00:02:32.980 And then I said to myself, wouldn't it be great if there were some kind of air dryer just for the dog?

00:02:41.880 Because if I use a hair dryer, it's going to be loud and, you know, scare the dog.

00:02:46.600 But I thought, somebody should make some kind of a hair dryer just for the dog.

00:02:53.860 Today, I open up my Instagram.

00:02:57.400 Somebody has developed a dryer for a cat.

00:03:01.000 Not a dog, but a cat.

00:03:05.440 And that actual advertisement was, it's a little sort of a box with fans.

00:03:11.600 And you put your cat in the box, and it dries the cat off after the cat gets a bath.

00:03:16.700 Have you ever seen those before?

00:03:19.100 Well, let me ask this.

00:03:20.480 Have you ever seen an advertisement for it in your feed?

00:03:24.340 Has anybody ever seen that advertisement in their feed?

00:03:29.220 I've never seen it.

00:03:30.340 And the one day I was saying to myself, wouldn't it be great if there was some way to dry my dog off?

00:03:36.940 There's a freaking cat dryer that shows up in my feed.

00:03:40.460 I've never seen that.

00:03:42.460 I am positive I would remember if I'd ever seen that even once.

00:03:48.400 Now, here's my question.

00:03:49.740 Is social media actually able to figure out my intentions?

00:03:58.020 Like, did it somehow pick up that I was washing an animal and that was enough?

00:04:04.820 Maybe it did.

00:04:06.600 I don't know.

00:04:07.920 I'm actually just, I don't have a theory about why it happens.

00:04:11.540 It could be just reticular activation, if you've ever heard of that term.

00:04:18.300 Reticular activation is where, if something's on your mind, you notice it in the environment.

00:04:24.240 Such as, when you buy a new car, then you notice everybody has that same car, but you've never noticed before.

00:04:31.300 It could be just that.

00:04:33.140 All right.

00:04:33.520 I'd like to give a shout-out for Best Prediction I've seen recently from Twitter account Unhoodwinked, which is a good follow.

00:04:45.360 Unhoodwinked is the name of the account.

00:04:46.940 And after noticing that three people who took the, what's the name of that therapeutic that people take, I think it's the Pfizer therapeutic for COVID,

00:05:00.220 Pavloxid, Paxlovid, Paxlovid, right.

00:05:07.520 So Unhoodwinked, after noticing that Joe Biden, Dr. Fauci, and Professor Peter Hotez all took that therapeutic and he noticed that they all got a second round of COVID, sort of, what do they call it, the bounce back or the, there's some name for it, but you get a second case.

00:05:29.200 And based on that pattern, Unhoodwinked predicted that the following people would all have bounce back COVID.

00:05:36.000 He actually predicted in advance that Jill Biden, the CEO of Pfizer, and the CDC head Walensky, he accurately predicted every one of them would get rebound, I'm sorry.

00:05:51.820 He accurately predicted all three of them would get rebound COVID.

00:05:56.160 He predicted that in public.

00:05:59.440 He got all three.

00:06:00.720 Now, do you know what was the best health care that I got this year?

00:06:10.480 The best health care I received was that it was so hard for me to contact my own health care provider and get Paxlovid when I got COVID that I didn't get it.

00:06:21.640 It was just too much work.

00:06:23.120 It was too hard.

00:06:23.820 So, if I could have gotten it easily, I'm pretty sure I would have taken it.

00:06:30.300 I'm pretty sure I would have taken it.

00:06:31.960 Now, let me ask you, is there anybody here who would have been comfortable with the vaccination, but uncomfortable with Paxlovid?

00:06:42.960 Is there anybody here who thinks the vaccination would be bad, but the therapeutic would be safer?

00:06:48.940 Is that a thing?

00:06:51.800 Because they're both, you know, two untested, not untested.

00:06:55.300 They're two drugs which everybody, including the people who made them, would wish they were more tested if we had more time.

00:07:03.960 Yeah, I don't know.

00:07:05.220 So, it turns out the smartest thing I did was have a health care provider who couldn't provide any health care.

00:07:13.060 Am I wrong?

00:07:13.880 You know, here's an update on my blood pressure.

00:07:18.940 So, I got off, I quit cold turkey blood pressure medication, which I want to say very carefully, you are not supposed to do.

00:07:29.280 You are not supposed to go cold turkey on your blood pressure meds.

00:07:33.640 That is a very not recommended thing.

00:07:36.080 So, I want to say that as clearly as possible.

00:07:37.680 Don't be like me.

00:07:39.320 Nobody copied me.

00:07:40.540 Don't do it.

00:07:41.180 I was just pissed off.

00:07:44.800 Because the day that I stopped taking it, I felt perfectly good after months of pain.

00:07:49.760 And I thought, I'm not fucking putting that in my body again.

00:07:53.760 Do you know what my health care provider recommended?

00:07:58.180 After I found out that the blood pressure meds were literally killing me?

00:08:02.680 And I mean literally, because they made me suicidal.

00:08:07.040 And if something makes you suicidal, and it makes you not able to exercise, it's killing you.

00:08:14.580 So, that's not too strong a statement, right?

00:08:17.200 It tried.

00:08:18.100 It just didn't succeed.

00:08:19.380 It tried to kill me.

00:08:20.580 Do you know what my doctor recommended?

00:08:23.440 Double the dose.

00:08:25.360 Double the dose.

00:08:26.160 Because my blood pressure had not been adequately controlled.

00:08:33.440 Because I gave some readings, and they weren't controlled enough.

00:08:37.560 So, I was asked to double the dose.

00:08:40.440 What do you think I'm doing?

00:08:42.200 Do you think I'm going to double the dose?

00:08:44.700 No fucking way.

00:08:46.240 No.

00:08:46.880 Now, I'm having a little issue with my health care provider, because my doctor is on leave.

00:08:51.800 So, there's a whole communication problem that's not normal.

00:08:54.480 My actual doctor is great.

00:08:57.120 So, let me be clear.

00:08:59.060 There's no way my doctor would have made that recommendation.

00:09:02.400 What happened is it went through a third party.

00:09:05.440 And by the time it got to me, the communication had been lost.

00:09:08.320 That instead of trying to get more of it, I was trying to get rid of it entirely.

00:09:11.760 So, just a communication problem.

00:09:14.640 But that's my current health care.

00:09:17.140 My current health care is too inconvenient to use it.

00:09:21.180 Literally.

00:09:22.060 It's too inconvenient to actually use it.

00:09:24.000 I actually choose to treat myself.

00:09:28.420 And so far, I've done better.

00:09:31.080 That's a fact.

00:09:32.960 So far, I've beat my health care provider in performance by ignoring them.

00:09:39.180 I hate to say it, but it's true. 0.99

00:09:41.640 All right.

00:09:41.860 So, yesterday, I took my blood pressure.

00:09:45.280 This is after a week of no blood pressure meds.

00:09:48.780 Pretty dangerous, right?

00:09:49.980 How do you think I did after a week of no blood pressure meds?

00:09:57.020 There you go.

00:09:58.860 Oops.

00:10:00.720 Damn it.

00:10:01.680 There's my readings.

00:10:04.620 How did I do after having no blood pressure meds?

00:10:08.520 115 over 79 and 120 over 77.

00:10:15.320 Do you know what I did instead of taking blood pressure meds?

00:10:18.820 Ask me how I did it.

00:10:20.840 I took a 20-minute walk.

00:10:22.200 And I cut down on coffee.

00:10:25.960 That's it.

00:10:27.620 I read somewhere that if you take two 30-minute walks a day, you're basically fine.

00:10:32.460 And I wondered if that's actually true.

00:10:36.760 And so I thought, okay, I won't do, like, a full exercise.

00:10:40.320 I'll do a nice, nice little, slightly challenging, you know, just a brisk walk.

00:10:47.380 And then I sit down and test my blood pressure.

00:10:50.360 And I got perfectly normal after a week with no blood pressure meds.

00:10:56.580 Now, let me be clear.

00:10:59.260 This, I probably hit a low point.

00:11:01.180 You know, this might have been my low for the day.

00:11:03.240 I do think I have a problem of a spiking during the day.

00:11:08.240 But let me ask you this.

00:11:11.640 Can you refer to the science and tell me if that puts me in danger?

00:11:17.820 Look at the science and tell me if you know that, you know,

00:11:21.540 I can get down to good blood pressure some part of the day,

00:11:24.720 but it might be spiking other parts of the day.

00:11:27.660 What is my risk?

00:11:29.920 Nobody knows.

00:11:31.600 Nobody knows that.

00:11:33.140 There's no science that could tell you that at all.

00:11:36.600 But if you talk to your doctor,

00:11:39.120 I'm sure they'll tell you that they have some firm ideas about that,

00:11:43.780 but they'd be guessing, I think.

00:11:46.760 So I know I'm setting myself up for karma to give me some health problem

00:11:51.440 because of my high blood pressure.

00:11:52.780 We all know that, right?

00:11:53.600 But I feel like I'm doing some kind of a public good here

00:11:59.100 that's a little bit bigger than me,

00:12:01.520 which is if I don't die

00:12:03.980 and I successfully manage my blood pressure into a healthy zone

00:12:08.040 just with lifestyle,

00:12:10.360 wouldn't you like to know that?

00:12:12.880 Wouldn't you like to know if that's a thing that works?

00:12:15.960 I mean, I'll just be one person,

00:12:17.280 so it's not like a study or something,

00:12:19.400 but wouldn't you be curious?

00:12:20.780 And I figure I'm going to take the chance for all of us, right?

00:12:24.920 I mean, I probably would do it for myself,

00:12:26.980 but it has a bigger value to you.

00:12:29.160 Maybe.

00:12:30.580 We'll see.

00:12:31.280 If you were on the Locos platform,

00:12:36.520 you would be seeing my naughtier cartoon called Robots Read News,

00:12:41.400 in which robots read the news.

00:12:44.820 Now, normally, you on YouTube could not see these comics,

00:12:48.420 but this particular one that I published yesterday,

00:12:51.540 which features just a robot reading the news,

00:12:53.660 has a humor technique in it I would like to teach you.

00:12:59.460 And this is one that's really easy.

00:13:02.340 This is one you could all incorporate immediately and become funnier.

00:13:07.060 You all want to be funnier, right?

00:13:09.120 It's called the list of three.

00:13:13.200 List of three.

00:13:15.060 There is something about a list of three concepts or things

00:13:20.820 that if you pick the right three, it's funny.

00:13:24.200 And you know it when you see it, right?

00:13:26.900 So what makes it funny is three things

00:13:29.240 that don't normally belong together, usually.

00:13:32.820 And there's something about the bleed over of one item into the other

00:13:37.500 that isn't part of the point, but it bleeds over,

00:13:40.500 that makes it funny because your brain is trying to make it make sense,

00:13:45.240 and it's not quite making sense for you, right?

00:13:47.920 So I'm going to read you the joke,

00:13:50.220 and then I'm going to explain what I did so you can see it.

00:13:54.560 So look for the list of three.

00:13:56.560 Three things that don't belong together,

00:13:58.780 but it's funny when you put them together, all right?

00:14:01.440 So the first two panels are one joke,

00:14:03.520 and then I just do a completely separate joke in the third panel.

00:14:07.380 So the robot says,

00:14:08.540 the government released a new COVID advisory today.

00:14:11.760 It says, quote,

00:14:12.840 to stay one mile from CDC Director Rochelle Walensky.

00:14:15.960 Because she got COVID yet again.

00:14:21.320 And then the third panel is just a new joke,

00:14:24.120 and the robot says,

00:14:25.960 in our Tips for Humans segment,

00:14:29.020 tonight's tip is,

00:14:30.460 never sleep in your underpants if your gun is a hammer.

00:14:34.800 Never sleep in your underpants if your gun is a hammer.

00:14:39.760 All right, now here's why this works.

00:14:41.700 Underpants, gun, hammer.

00:14:46.140 Underpants, gun, hammer.

00:14:49.760 You put those three together,

00:14:51.640 I don't care what else you say about them.

00:14:54.960 Do you see it?

00:14:56.640 You can't put those three words together and not laugh.

00:15:00.660 Right?

00:15:01.520 As soon as you hear them, you're like,

00:15:03.500 okay, underpants, gun, hammer, I'm done.

00:15:06.560 Underpants, gun, hammer.

00:15:08.080 There's nothing else you need to say.

00:15:09.620 All right, that's it.

00:15:12.080 Right?

00:15:12.420 You can make your own joke.

00:15:14.260 You can put any other words around them.

00:15:17.080 There are about a hundred different ways

00:15:18.500 you can make them funny.

00:15:19.620 I just picked one.

00:15:20.940 Right?

00:15:21.480 So there's your tip.

00:15:23.660 Now, if you're saying to yourself,

00:15:25.180 but Scott,

00:15:26.420 how would I know that those three went together

00:15:28.560 and were funny?

00:15:29.740 That's not the way it works.

00:15:32.380 What you do is you just cycle

00:15:33.940 a bunch of words through your head

00:15:35.360 until one of them makes you laugh.

00:15:36.900 One combination makes you laugh.

00:15:38.300 And when it makes you laugh,

00:15:39.820 it'll probably make other people laugh.

00:15:42.080 So here's why it's hard

00:15:43.940 for AI to write humor.

00:15:47.080 This is a perfect example.

00:15:49.060 The way I wrote this joke

00:15:50.560 is the first time I thought of it,

00:15:53.360 it made me laugh in my head.

00:15:55.860 As soon as I thought of those three words together,

00:15:58.080 I was like, okay,

00:15:58.740 these three words are one of those,

00:16:00.300 that's one of those three word combos.

00:16:01.920 But the only way I knew it worked for you

00:16:05.100 is that it made me laugh.

00:16:07.880 And the AI can't do that.

00:16:09.840 So the AI can't test its own joke on itself

00:16:12.860 because it doesn't have a sense of humor yet.

00:16:16.080 So that's the only advantage I have right now

00:16:19.180 is that I can A-B test faster

00:16:21.820 than the fastest computer.

00:16:23.960 How long is that going to last?

00:16:25.500 Because the computer will eventually beat me

00:16:29.580 by testing with lots of humans fairly quickly.

00:16:35.180 Just send out a query.

00:16:36.940 What's funnier, this or that?

00:16:39.100 And you're like, that one.

00:16:41.020 And then it knows what people think is funnier.

00:16:44.500 So that's your tip for the day.

00:16:46.800 All right.

00:16:51.860 So when did Twitter get an edit button?

00:16:55.860 Because I saw one today.

00:16:57.380 That's only for the special people, right?

00:16:59.320 Some people testing it.

00:17:01.520 Can you confirm that?

00:17:03.360 Because the edit button worked exactly the way I would have.

00:17:07.500 It's not for blue checks.

00:17:09.000 You have to be on Twitter blue,

00:17:10.660 meaning you're paying money for it, right?

00:17:13.060 Yeah, you don't have an edit button.

00:17:14.560 So it's the first time I saw one today.

00:17:16.840 And I don't know if you remember,

00:17:18.300 but I was describing how I would have designed it.

00:17:21.740 It turns out they designed it exactly like I would have,

00:17:25.180 which I assume is a coincidence.

00:17:27.200 But the way I would have done it is

00:17:28.800 you have to show the history.

00:17:32.000 So it just shows a little tag that says

00:17:33.980 it's an edited tweet.

00:17:35.820 And as soon as I saw the tag, which was notable,

00:17:38.440 I mean, it was easy to see the tag,

00:17:41.240 I clicked on it,

00:17:43.180 and it showed me that there was a typo

00:17:44.940 in the first tweet.

00:17:46.860 And then I was all happy.

00:17:48.720 I was totally happy.

00:17:50.200 Because it was my choice to look at the edit.

00:17:52.460 I didn't have to.

00:17:53.820 And when I looked, I said,

00:17:54.880 oh, he used it for this reason.

00:17:56.740 It was a typo.

00:17:58.760 Perfect.

00:17:59.080 To me, that was perfect.

00:18:01.280 How would you improve on that?

00:18:05.200 You can't improve on that.

00:18:06.900 That's as good as the edit button can be designed.

00:18:09.760 So I think you'll see that.

00:18:12.080 I'd be surprised if they don't roll that out for the rest of us.

00:18:15.200 So did you see there was a tweet by Stephen King,

00:18:21.200 author Stephen King.

00:18:22.660 And he said it had been floated,

00:18:26.200 the idea of charging blue check people $20 a month.

00:18:29.400 And King tweeted,

00:18:32.180 $20 a month to keep my blue check.

00:18:34.880 Fuck that.

00:18:35.860 They should pay me.

00:18:37.180 If that gets instituted, I'm going like Enron.

00:18:40.960 Now, here's what I just absolutely love

00:18:44.800 about Twitter and about this time in our world.

00:18:51.080 So Stephen King tweets this tweet about Twitter,

00:18:54.460 and he gets an almost immediate reply from Elon Musk.

00:18:59.300 Now, so probably the most prolific

00:19:02.200 or, I don't know, financially successful author in America

00:19:06.340 of all time, I'm guessing, probably.

00:19:10.960 Gets a direct tweet from the richest man in the world,

00:19:14.900 and then we can all watch it.

00:19:17.400 The transparency of all this is just amazing.

00:19:20.100 But what Musk tweets back is, he goes,

00:19:22.860 we need to pay the bills somehow.

00:19:25.180 He goes, Twitter cannot rely entirely on advertisers.

00:19:28.920 Then he goes, how about $8?

00:19:31.140 Now, how awesome is that?

00:19:33.740 That you actually watched the richest man in the world,

00:19:36.580 the most successful entrepreneur we've ever seen,

00:19:39.100 negotiating in public with our most famous,

00:19:44.000 prolific author of fiction,

00:19:47.220 and something could come of it.

00:19:51.920 You know, if King actually gave his opinion,

00:19:54.060 it could actually matter.

00:19:56.040 Like if King said, you know,

00:19:58.020 I could do $8.

00:19:59.140 But you know what's the funniest thing about this?

00:20:04.620 You lose sight of the fact

00:20:06.140 that the richest man in the world

00:20:08.320 and the richest author in the world

00:20:10.600 are arguing whether $8 a month or $20 a month

00:20:13.560 is the right price.

00:20:15.460 There are no two people in the world

00:20:17.300 who could care less about the difference

00:20:18.980 between $8 and $20.

00:20:21.180 But yet it's happening.

00:20:23.280 I mean, everything about this is interesting.

00:20:24.960 Just the fact that we can observe it in real time.

00:20:29.620 Have you ever seen a famous person that accessible?

00:20:33.940 I mean, Musk is so accessible.

00:20:36.320 I mean, he's responded to my tweets a few times.

00:20:40.020 He's responded to people I know several times.

00:20:44.600 You know, it feels like if you make a tweet

00:20:46.420 that actually has merit,

00:20:48.600 he actually sees it and responds to it.

00:20:50.700 It's kind of a phenomenal time in history.

00:20:55.460 I saw something that confused me at first,

00:20:58.560 but then it all made sense.

00:21:00.680 And let me explain it to you.

00:21:02.640 Do you know how,

00:21:04.000 I think Dan Bongino was pointing out recently,

00:21:06.880 how Biden hadn't been fact-checked all summer.

00:21:11.360 We went like a whole summer

00:21:12.520 and CNN's fact-checker just disappeared.

00:21:15.080 And then it became a little embarrassing

00:21:17.120 because people noticed that they just stopped fact-checking.

00:21:21.180 And then today, I looked at CNN's page,

00:21:24.540 and there down in sort of a hard-to-find place

00:21:27.720 was a fact-check of Joe Biden.

00:21:31.040 And it was Daniel Dale, the fact-checker for CNN,

00:21:34.980 and he fact-checked Biden's lie

00:21:37.880 about what gas prices were on average

00:21:41.100 when he took over from Trump.

00:21:42.700 So I guess Biden had been saying

00:21:46.360 that gas prices were $5 on average

00:21:50.160 when he took over from Trump,

00:21:51.780 which is not even close to true.

00:21:55.080 It's not even in the neighborhood of true.

00:21:58.980 It's just like an amazing lie.

00:22:01.920 So were you surprised

00:22:03.800 that CNN would fact-check

00:22:06.900 Biden's claim about gas

00:22:09.320 now when apparently they've been

00:22:12.020 not fact-checking anything for months?

00:22:13.860 Does that surprise you?

00:22:15.100 That suddenly, even when we're closer to the midterms,

00:22:18.480 we're closer to the midterms,

00:22:19.780 he's fact-checking it.

00:22:21.260 Does that surprise you at all?

00:22:23.940 Let me give you a related story

00:22:26.200 that will explain to you

00:22:28.440 why CNN's fact-checker

00:22:30.680 suddenly is on the job.

00:22:34.160 All right?

00:22:34.780 Now watch me tie these two unrelated stories together

00:22:37.600 and see if you'd make the connection without my help.

00:22:39.860 I think you will.

00:22:40.980 I think this wasn't an easy one.

00:22:42.860 Okay?

00:22:43.600 Totally unrelated story.

00:22:46.320 Did you hear that Paul Pelosi

00:22:48.180 was hit by a crazy guy with a hammer?

00:22:51.860 Yeah?

00:22:52.340 And have you heard that the political right

00:22:55.340 is creating a bunch of stories

00:22:59.480 that, let's say, don't have factual proof,

00:23:02.100 suggesting that Paul Pelosi

00:23:04.220 was maybe in a gay relationship

00:23:07.780 with the attacker.

00:23:10.240 Now, is that the sort of story

00:23:12.000 that the Democrats want to stay out there

00:23:14.320 as something that might have been true?

00:23:17.160 No, no.

00:23:18.140 No, that's the sort of story

00:23:19.340 that you might want...

00:23:21.620 What's the word, the phrase?

00:23:23.520 Two words.

00:23:24.380 What do you think the Democrats

00:23:25.740 would want to do with a story like that?

00:23:27.940 They'd want to fact-check it?

00:23:33.900 Would they want to fact-check it?

00:23:38.640 Now, how do you fact-check something

00:23:40.780 when your fact-checker's gone?

00:23:43.180 How do you do that?

00:23:45.080 Huh.

00:23:45.960 Wouldn't it be great,

00:23:47.160 in a situation like this,

00:23:48.480 if you were CNN,

00:23:49.540 wouldn't it be great to have a fact-checker

00:23:51.240 who could come in here

00:23:52.760 and fact-check that thing away,

00:23:54.240 make sure that gay rumor goes away?

00:23:56.980 Well, as luck would have it,

00:23:59.540 Daniel Dale has made a big appearance

00:24:01.440 and in a major piece,

00:24:03.440 he's fact-checking this Paul Pelosi stuff

00:24:05.880 and says it's all unfounded.

00:24:10.620 Now, could Daniel Dale come back

00:24:13.560 and do a big fact-check on the Pelosi story

00:24:16.700 while completely ignoring everything

00:24:19.160 that Biden's done all summer?

00:24:22.560 Nope.

00:24:23.740 That would be a little bit obvious, wouldn't it?

00:24:26.060 So he's got a little bit of a fact-check

00:24:30.520 on Biden, just a little one.

00:24:34.940 Yeah, just gas prices, just a little one.

00:24:38.900 So that gives him cover

00:24:40.360 for doing the big one

00:24:42.140 that they really need to get done, right?

00:24:44.220 They can bury the Pelosi thing, right?

00:24:47.660 Now, is it a coincidence that he just appeared

00:24:49.800 and he fact-checks Biden

00:24:51.720 after months of no fact-checking

00:24:54.120 at just the right time

00:24:56.160 when they needed that other fact-check?

00:25:00.420 Now, how many of you would have noticed that?

00:25:04.000 Would you have noticed the pattern?

00:25:07.060 Somebody did, right.

00:25:08.000 I think that many of you

00:25:11.780 are now so sophisticated in watching the news

00:25:15.460 that you can see the pattern

00:25:17.980 even before you can see the fake news.

00:25:22.560 We all know the wrap-up smear now, right?

00:25:26.100 We know how the wrap-up smear works.

00:25:28.360 We know how the Democrats will release something

00:25:32.600 like to a news entity that's friendly

00:25:35.820 and then they'll refer to the news entity

00:25:38.260 to prove the thing that was the rumor they made up,

00:25:41.180 you know, the wrap-up smear.

00:25:42.420 So once you understand the patterns,

00:25:45.600 everything just is so much more clear.

00:25:48.740 Now, here's what's interesting.

00:25:51.580 With that little move,

00:25:53.860 they made it impossible for Biden to become president

00:25:56.620 if whoever runs against him

00:25:58.900 decides to be even a little bit smart.

00:26:03.040 Here's how it goes.

00:26:06.520 And I'm doing the media's job for him,

00:26:08.760 but you can imagine a candidate taking this attack, too.

00:26:11.800 So imagine Peter Doocy asking the president's spokesperson this.

00:26:17.540 The president ran for office

00:26:19.380 promising to remove a liar from office.

00:26:23.320 So Biden ran for office

00:26:24.640 to remove that liar from office. 0.99

00:26:28.180 That was a major theme.

00:26:30.060 But he also says the price of gas

00:26:32.020 was more than $5 when he took office,

00:26:35.480 which has been fact-checked as false

00:26:38.520 by CNN.

00:26:42.720 So I would ask the question,

00:26:44.280 which one of those is true?

00:26:46.180 Did he really run for office

00:26:48.080 to remove a liar from office,

00:26:49.600 or is he lying now

00:26:51.760 about the gas price?

00:26:55.700 And I would ask that question.

00:26:58.740 Now, isn't that fair?

00:27:00.420 That's a fair question, right?

00:27:01.920 A major theme of his campaign

00:27:03.720 was, I will get rid of that liar,

00:27:07.580 but a major theme of his current governing

00:27:10.980 is that gas was $5 a gallon

00:27:14.080 when he took over.

00:27:16.180 Now, that's an easily debunkable fact,

00:27:19.580 but it's also unique.

00:27:22.040 You know what's unique about the gas price claim?

00:27:25.240 What's unique about it

00:27:26.440 is that it's the most debunkable thing

00:27:28.880 you could debunk.

00:27:30.420 There's nothing that would be easier to debunk,

00:27:32.540 because it's just like a statistical fact

00:27:35.700 that anybody can look up, basically.

00:27:38.140 So here's what I'd do

00:27:40.200 if I were debating Biden.

00:27:42.300 I'd say the same thing.

00:27:43.740 You ran for office

00:27:44.860 because you wanted to put honesty in the office.

00:27:48.240 You're also, your major claim in your office

00:27:50.260 is that gas was $5 when you took over.

00:27:53.040 Pick one.

00:27:55.000 Either you care about the truth,

00:27:57.700 or there's something wrong

00:28:00.120 with this gas price thing.

00:28:01.340 I would make Biden...

00:28:05.240 See, the trouble is,

00:28:06.140 if you go for the fine people hoax,

00:28:08.100 which would be another example of him lying,

00:28:10.400 you can't fact-check that,

00:28:12.520 because the fact-checkers would say

00:28:13.920 it didn't happen, which they do.

00:28:16.960 Of course, they're lying.

00:28:18.480 It obviously did happen.

00:28:19.960 You can watch it yourself.

00:28:21.080 You don't have to even rely on the fact-checkers.

00:28:23.600 But because Daniel Dale fact-checked

00:28:26.980 the gas price thing,

00:28:28.680 you can use it.

00:28:29.520 That's sort of like a lawyer knows

00:28:32.700 not to ask a question

00:28:33.920 and he doesn't already know the answer.

00:28:35.840 And you don't want something introduced

00:28:37.420 into the trial during the trial,

00:28:39.740 because you're not ready for that.

00:28:41.540 You don't want to accidentally introduce

00:28:43.100 a thing that you're not ready to deal with.

00:28:45.260 So I think that Daniel Dale

00:28:46.600 accidentally put this into evidence,

00:28:49.020 that the president is in fact lying

00:28:51.700 about something that would be easy to fact-check.

00:28:54.280 It's a major point.

00:28:56.380 I mean, it's a big point, right?

00:28:58.780 And it's the opposite of the biggest claim

00:29:01.080 he made during his presidency,

00:29:02.480 that he would bring you the truth.

00:29:05.100 So I would make him answer to that

00:29:07.280 and only that,

00:29:08.360 and I wouldn't even bring up anything else.

00:29:10.560 I'd just say, look,

00:29:12.400 just tell us if you're real.

00:29:15.400 Now, you might say to yourself,

00:29:16.720 how is that going to work

00:29:17.620 if he's running against Trump?

00:29:18.840 Because he's just going to say,

00:29:20.800 but Trump had, you know,

00:29:22.260 10 million fact-check problems.

00:29:25.520 But you know what's different?

00:29:29.140 Trump actually ran telling you

00:29:32.700 that he likes to use hyperbole

00:29:34.100 to get the job done.

00:29:36.620 He told you he would be a cheerleader

00:29:38.340 for the country.

00:29:39.820 He didn't tell you he was going to be

00:29:40.960 the most honest president you ever had.

00:29:43.260 He never once made that claim.

00:29:45.260 Did he?

00:29:46.400 Did Trump ever say,

00:29:47.400 I'm going to bring honesty

00:29:49.320 and fact-checking to the presidency?

00:29:51.500 He absolutely did not.

00:29:53.180 He did not.

00:29:54.140 But Biden did.

00:29:55.540 So if you're going to compare the two,

00:29:57.680 you've got one person who says,

00:29:59.060 of course I use hyperbole all the time.

00:30:01.100 It works really well.

00:30:02.460 And I'm going to use it for you.

00:30:04.080 I'll use it on your benefit.

00:30:05.840 I'll run the country using hyperbole,

00:30:08.420 just the way I did my business.

00:30:10.300 And then you look at what he did,

00:30:11.520 and it's like, sure enough.

00:30:12.940 Sure enough.

00:30:13.880 He ran the country on hyperbole,

00:30:15.580 and it worked pretty well.

00:30:17.400 Just like he said it would.

00:30:19.460 Biden said he'd run it on honesty,

00:30:21.420 but used lying instead.

00:30:23.980 You can call him on that.

00:30:26.420 You can call him on that.

00:30:29.600 All right.

00:30:33.180 Let me test a claim with you.

00:30:36.280 I don't believe that people on the right

00:30:38.360 actually believe that Paul Pelosi

00:30:40.000 was maybe engaged in a gay tryst.

00:30:43.280 You're just having fun, right?

00:30:46.500 You don't actually believe that, do you?

00:30:49.440 Can somebody tell you?

00:30:50.540 Is there anybody who actually believes that?

00:30:52.700 Or is it you're just having fun?

00:30:58.840 Okay.

00:30:59.480 Oh, somebody says they do.

00:31:01.860 All right.

00:31:02.320 Very, I think very few people

00:31:04.500 actually entertain that as a probability.

00:31:08.480 You know, I suppose I'd put it in the category

00:31:10.740 of anything's possible, right?

00:31:12.920 But pretty unlikely.

00:31:14.840 Pretty darn unlikely.

00:31:17.060 Now, you have to be careful,

00:31:18.600 because here's where you need to be careful.

00:31:20.900 Because this now becomes a famous

00:31:23.180 conservative hoax.

00:31:26.300 And you've given the ammunition

00:31:28.400 to the Democrats.

00:31:30.760 So what you got out of it

00:31:32.360 was a funny story

00:31:33.480 with no political value whatsoever, right?

00:31:37.060 There's nobody in the world

00:31:38.360 who would vote differently

00:31:39.540 based on the Paul Pelosi story, right?

00:31:43.240 Nobody would vote differently.

00:31:44.560 If anything, they would have some empathy for him,

00:31:47.000 I would think.

00:31:48.480 So there's no benefit to

00:31:50.520 this conspiracy theory,

00:31:53.260 if you want to call it that.

00:31:54.360 But there's definitely a downside.

00:31:56.580 The downside is that the other side says,

00:31:58.280 look, you're a bunch of liars. 0.58

00:32:00.100 You know, don't be on that team.

00:32:01.180 It's a bunch of liars.

00:32:03.220 But at some point,

00:32:04.880 I think the conservatives need to admit

00:32:07.420 they're just having fun.

00:32:10.700 And I think at some point,

00:32:13.120 you know, you might need to admit that collectively,

00:32:16.260 not you specifically,

00:32:17.660 in order to get past it.

00:32:19.660 Because you've created a problem for yourself,

00:32:22.200 you conservatives.

00:32:23.200 Conservatives.

00:32:24.220 Because now you've painted yourself

00:32:26.300 as conspiracy theorists,

00:32:29.440 when in fact,

00:32:30.180 I think you were just having fun.

00:32:32.560 Like, fun is somebody's expense,

00:32:34.820 so we could argue how ethical that was.

00:32:38.860 But you can't argue that it wasn't fun.

00:32:43.320 Unfortunately, we're complicated people.

00:32:45.180 Does anybody have a problem holding in their head

00:32:48.820 simultaneously that you have genuine empathy

00:32:52.000 for Paul Pelosi?

00:32:54.020 I know I do.

00:32:55.400 At the same time, it's funny.

00:32:58.080 You could have both of those feelings.

00:33:00.260 And you could have them fully, I think.

00:33:02.300 I think you can be fully human

00:33:05.220 and have empathy.

00:33:06.860 At the same time,

00:33:08.080 if it makes you laugh,

00:33:09.080 it makes you laugh.

00:33:09.740 I wouldn't be laughing if he hadn't survived.

00:33:13.240 And I wouldn't be laughing

00:33:13.980 if he'd been permanently crippled.

00:33:16.480 That wouldn't be.

00:33:17.280 There's nothing I could find in that.

00:33:19.100 But he is tragic as it was,

00:33:22.040 and traumatic,

00:33:23.520 and wish it hadn't happened.

00:33:25.920 I can't help the fact that people are normal

00:33:27.940 and they laugh at funny things

00:33:30.640 like underpants and hammers.

00:33:32.780 All right.

00:33:37.020 So, but just if you hadn't heard the whole,

00:33:41.640 are you trying to understand why

00:33:43.600 the story said that Paul Pelosi called them a friend?

00:33:49.720 Are you trying to understand why that could be true

00:33:52.400 at the same time it's true

00:33:53.600 that they didn't know each other?

00:33:56.040 Because Paul Pelosi is not on record as saying that.

00:33:59.160 Only one of the dispatchers

00:34:02.120 had that characterization.

00:34:04.160 But there's no record of Paul Pelosi saying that,

00:34:07.180 and both he,

00:34:08.540 both Pelosi and the other person with the hammer,

00:34:12.900 they both say they didn't know each other.

00:34:15.520 And they both have the same story.

00:34:17.840 Now, that would be pretty rare

00:34:19.140 because they're not exactly on the same team, right?

00:34:22.540 But they both have a consistent story

00:34:24.380 that it was an invasion,

00:34:26.520 it was about something about Nancy.

00:34:28.320 Now, here's the second part you need to know.

00:34:31.180 It was definitely political.

00:34:34.360 Do you agree with that yet?

00:34:36.240 I don't know what news you've seen or not seen,

00:34:38.680 but it was definitely political.

00:34:40.820 I see the right trying to explain it away as crazy.

00:34:44.860 Well, he's crazy too,

00:34:47.080 but he left a very clear path

00:34:49.180 that it was a, you know,

00:34:50.860 it was a political act.

00:34:52.400 There's no doubt about it.

00:34:53.320 All right, so I'm happy that almost all of you

00:34:59.800 are on the same page on this

00:35:01.100 because I would be a little worried.

00:35:05.780 Somebody's saying I'm a boomer

00:35:07.440 because I believe the narrative.

00:35:09.480 No, what I think is that

00:35:11.480 the thing that's most likely is most likely.

00:35:14.800 That's all.

00:35:15.360 If it turns out I'm wrong,

00:35:18.180 that wouldn't be the first time.

00:35:20.240 But I'm saying that the ordinary explanation

00:35:22.700 is completely available to you.

00:35:25.480 You don't need an extraordinary explanation

00:35:27.300 for something that's ordinary.

00:35:29.000 Now, I would say there's one thing left,

00:35:32.160 which is why it was the glass

00:35:36.600 on the outside of the window.

00:35:37.720 And I could give you several ways

00:35:41.920 that that might be explained.

00:35:45.320 Now, I'm not saying these are the actual reasons.

00:35:47.720 I'm only going to give you an example

00:35:49.020 of how you could understand it

00:35:51.300 without actually knowing what the explanation is.

00:35:53.880 All right?

00:35:55.060 Number one,

00:35:56.540 how many times have you seen a story like this

00:35:58.460 where, you know, you saw a picture of the break-in

00:36:01.460 and then you found out later

00:36:02.920 it wasn't even the right house?

00:36:05.040 That's like an ordinary thing.

00:36:06.400 Like the news might have shown a picture

00:36:08.580 of the wrong house.

00:36:10.380 Now, I don't think that happened,

00:36:12.360 but that's in the category of these things, right?

00:36:16.000 That wouldn't even be, right,

00:36:18.340 it wouldn't even be unusual.

00:36:19.940 It could have been photoshopped, right?

00:36:22.960 So you don't even know if the photo is real.

00:36:24.880 Would you agree?

00:36:25.900 I think the photo is real, right, if I had to guess.

00:36:28.660 But would you agree

00:36:29.660 that you can't rule out a fake photo?

00:36:32.840 You can't rule it out

00:36:33.720 because it's actually so ordinary

00:36:35.200 and so common

00:36:36.720 that in the initial fog of war,

00:36:40.720 how often is it in Ukraine, for example,

00:36:42.840 that they ran military actions from other wars?

00:36:47.020 You saw a bunch of that.

00:36:48.120 Very common.

00:36:49.520 All right, here's another way it could happen.

00:36:51.980 There was a breakthrough that caused,

00:36:56.460 that allowed him to get in,

00:36:57.500 and then there was just something else that happened

00:37:00.820 that also sent some glass.

00:37:04.480 All right, here's another one.

00:37:07.340 Let's say you've got a claw hammer

00:37:10.160 and you're trying to break in.

00:37:12.340 You break through with a hammer,

00:37:14.640 but the hammer leaves, you know,

00:37:16.880 a discreet hole.

00:37:18.880 Is the next thing you do to keep hammering it,

00:37:21.900 or would the next thing you do

00:37:23.720 grab the claw into the weakened glass

00:37:27.400 and pull it toward you?

00:37:29.500 Which would you do?

00:37:32.220 You could imagine

00:37:33.280 that if there was like a hole at the hammer hole,

00:37:37.060 but you saw the glass was weakened,

00:37:38.960 you could imagine

00:37:39.640 that you would just pull in the claw

00:37:40.900 and pull an arrow, right?

00:37:43.080 Now, I'm not saying that happened.

00:37:44.880 I'm not making that claim.

00:37:46.540 I'm just saying there are probably

00:37:47.880 five different ways this could happen.

00:37:51.960 All right, here's another one.

00:37:53.560 You break the window

00:37:54.760 and it doesn't get rid of all the glass in the pane.

00:37:59.900 And then you yank open the window

00:38:02.620 and the rest of the glass falls out

00:38:05.580 after you've already opened it.

00:38:08.320 You've opened the door.

00:38:09.920 So now you've got glass on the inside

00:38:11.600 from the initial break

00:38:12.720 plus glass on the outside

00:38:14.600 because when you yanked the door

00:38:16.060 some more glass came down.

00:38:18.780 Now, I'm not saying that happened either.

00:38:21.420 But can you see how easily

00:38:23.600 you could get glass on the outside

00:38:25.300 without being weird, right?

00:38:28.580 Without being weird.

00:38:30.680 It's pretty easy, right?

00:38:33.780 So I don't know if any of those are true,

00:38:35.320 but I would say that everything is explained.

00:38:39.820 The reason he was called a friend

00:38:41.340 Pelosi, there's no evidence he ever said that.

00:38:44.520 There's only evidence that the dispatcher

00:38:46.680 believed he heard it.

00:38:48.980 How often does somebody misquote somebody else?

00:38:52.720 In your experience,

00:38:55.100 how often does somebody accurately quote somebody else

00:38:58.140 in a, let's say, high emotion situation?

00:39:02.120 Almost never.

00:39:03.120 They always get it wrong.

00:39:05.960 The most common thing in the world

00:39:07.600 is for a third party to misinterpret you.

00:39:10.380 How many times does a third party

00:39:12.400 misinterpret me every day?

00:39:16.140 All day long, my Twitter feed

00:39:17.960 is full of people misinterpreting

00:39:20.060 something I said.

00:39:22.380 But they think they're right,

00:39:23.940 as the dispatcher probably thought

00:39:26.600 he or she was right.

00:39:27.360 Yeah.

00:39:30.860 All right.

00:39:31.380 I think I explained most of that.

00:39:36.540 You know, I didn't talk about too much of this story

00:39:38.680 about we know now

00:39:39.900 that the Department of Homeland Security

00:39:42.820 and the FBI

00:39:44.480 were coordinating with the social media platforms

00:39:48.280 to tamp down on disinformation.

00:39:51.320 Now, it's being treated like a new story.

00:39:55.580 I thought we knew this for a long time.

00:39:58.760 All right.

00:39:59.400 Is there anybody who didn't know

00:40:00.920 the social media companies

00:40:02.340 were talking to the government

00:40:03.480 about disinformation?

00:40:06.980 We did, but we forgot.

00:40:09.100 This isn't a new story, right?

00:40:11.820 It's only that we saw it in writing somewhere else.

00:40:15.820 Yeah.

00:40:16.820 Yeah, Zachary admitted it.

00:40:18.220 So I don't understand the story.

00:40:20.280 There's nothing new, right?

00:40:22.000 We all know this is the thing.

00:40:25.640 You know what's hard about this story is

00:40:28.020 I don't know if I don't want it to happen.

00:40:31.980 If the only thing you knew

00:40:33.380 is that the government

00:40:34.180 was talking to social media

00:40:35.640 about how to handle disinformation,

00:40:41.080 if that's the only thing you knew,

00:40:44.300 it's not automatically bad.

00:40:47.300 It becomes bad

00:40:48.420 because the government's involved

00:40:49.640 and everything it touches, it ruins.

00:40:52.280 But at the concept level,

00:40:54.520 is that a problem?

00:40:55.860 That your government is concerned

00:40:57.360 about misinformation

00:40:58.140 during a pandemic?

00:41:03.080 Yeah, it can become a problem.

00:41:05.560 I don't know that the instinct

00:41:06.920 was necessarily 100% evil.

00:41:09.740 You know, there might have been

00:41:11.460 a little bit of good intentions

00:41:13.340 involved there.

00:41:14.840 But, you know,

00:41:15.640 the evil gets in the tent too, right?

00:41:18.340 You know, once the evil gets in,

00:41:20.000 there's nothing to do to get it out.

00:41:21.800 Yeah.

00:41:21.940 So I would agree with you

00:41:23.440 that it's a bad idea.

00:41:24.480 I don't think it's obvious

00:41:26.640 that it was always about bad intentions.

00:41:29.800 But clearly,

00:41:30.600 the bad intentions got wrapped

00:41:31.960 into this concept.

00:41:33.200 Clearly.

00:41:33.440 All right.

00:41:36.920 Yeah.

00:41:37.760 You know,

00:41:38.180 and you could also imagine

00:41:39.220 a good way to handle it

00:41:40.560 and a bad way to handle it.

00:41:44.120 Here's the good way.

00:41:45.580 The good way to handle it

00:41:46.700 is to say,

00:41:47.340 social media companies,

00:41:48.640 you should have a feature

00:41:50.040 where if somebody makes a claim

00:41:51.360 that's false,

00:41:53.280 that you can easily associate it

00:41:55.040 with the correct claim.

00:41:56.100 Would that be a problem to you?

00:42:00.960 Because I've said social media

00:42:02.300 should do exactly that.

00:42:04.100 They should make it easy.

00:42:05.400 Well, actually, no.

00:42:06.400 Let me change it.

00:42:07.540 Not to the correct claim,

00:42:09.040 to the counterclaim.

00:42:10.720 That's where it's different.

00:42:11.840 All right.

00:42:12.080 Here's where we differ.

00:42:13.660 I don't think you should have a service

00:42:15.560 that tells you what's true.

00:42:17.480 I think you should have a service

00:42:18.880 that exposes you to the counterclaim.

00:42:21.140 That's the difference.

00:42:22.540 Would you agree?

00:42:24.100 You don't want the government

00:42:25.160 saying what's true.

00:42:26.840 But if the only thing they did

00:42:28.220 is say make sure

00:42:28.900 that the true information

00:42:31.220 also gets surfaced,

00:42:33.360 true as we think it's true,

00:42:34.860 make sure the counterclaim

00:42:35.920 gets surfaced,

00:42:36.920 that would be okay with me.

00:42:38.740 But that's not what they did,

00:42:39.960 is it?

00:42:41.000 I don't think that's exactly

00:42:42.260 what they did.

00:42:44.160 But there is a good version of it.

00:42:47.900 How many of you have ever heard

00:42:49.460 of something called

00:42:50.080 the fine structure constant?

00:42:51.720 Are there any nerds here,

00:42:54.540 science nerds?

00:42:56.100 The fine structure constant.

00:43:00.060 So somebody directed me to it

00:43:02.660 this morning

00:43:03.200 to break my brain.

00:43:05.920 And it did.

00:43:07.080 It broke my brain a little bit.

00:43:08.740 Now, I don't fully understand it,

00:43:10.380 but I'll tell you

00:43:10.860 the best I can.

00:43:13.720 There's this number 137,

00:43:16.800 which maybe coincidentally,

00:43:18.760 maybe not,

00:43:19.320 is a prime number

00:43:20.080 that pops up in physics too often.

00:43:26.040 And there's another quality to it

00:43:27.860 that I don't understand.

00:43:29.640 There's some kind of

00:43:31.140 measureless quantity thing to it

00:43:35.460 that I don't understand.

00:43:37.480 But it comes up way too often.

00:43:40.120 And scientists don't know why. 0.84

00:43:41.860 And why would that be a constant?

00:43:47.380 And to my mind,

00:43:49.920 it's probably proof of the simulation.

00:43:55.100 It's probably proof of the simulation.

00:43:57.560 So let me give you an example

00:43:59.340 of why you would need a constant

00:44:01.300 for a simulation.

00:44:02.540 Years ago,

00:44:04.680 when personal computers

00:44:06.300 were brand new,

00:44:07.800 I tried to learn

00:44:08.660 computing on my own,

00:44:10.140 or programming on my own,

00:44:11.680 because I wanted to see

00:44:12.560 if I could build

00:44:13.080 my own video game.

00:44:14.700 And I did.

00:44:16.040 I succeeded.

00:44:17.100 So I learned enough

00:44:18.120 that I made a video game

00:44:20.040 that featured

00:44:20.520 the space shuttle,

00:44:25.280 but it had laser cannons

00:44:27.400 in the game,

00:44:28.100 and it could shoot down

00:44:28.920 Soviet satellites

00:44:29.860 back when the Soviet Union 0.83

00:44:31.080 was a thing.

00:44:31.600 So I actually created a game.

00:44:35.060 Now, here was the problem.

00:44:36.900 I was such a bad programmer

00:44:38.860 that I created a game

00:44:42.200 that worked perfectly

00:44:43.040 on my computer.

00:44:44.440 You see the problem, right?

00:44:46.240 The very next computer

00:44:47.720 I bought was faster.

00:44:49.880 And so the speed of the game

00:44:51.420 became the speed

00:44:53.440 of the processor.

00:44:55.260 What I really needed

00:44:56.520 was that the speed of the game

00:44:57.820 always stayed the same,

00:44:59.200 no matter what processor

00:45:00.700 it was running on.

00:45:01.600 So in other words,

00:45:04.160 I needed a constant.

00:45:06.600 I needed a constant.

00:45:08.180 I needed some number 0.96

00:45:09.980 or a constant

00:45:11.320 that no matter

00:45:12.620 what processor

00:45:13.340 I'm running on,

00:45:14.060 the game looked the same.

00:45:15.900 The fact that this

00:45:16.980 137 constant

00:45:18.320 shows up

00:45:19.060 all over the place

00:45:20.060 tells me that

00:45:22.220 we're a game.

00:45:24.080 We've been designed

00:45:25.200 with a constant

00:45:27.140 that would keep,

00:45:28.800 now I don't know

00:45:29.300 if it's keeping

00:45:29.780 the speed constant.

00:45:31.720 Maybe it's that.

00:45:33.140 Because if we're a simulation

00:45:34.520 we may move

00:45:35.720 from one processor

00:45:37.280 to another

00:45:37.900 without even knowing it.

00:45:39.800 And all the processors

00:45:40.680 need to operate

00:45:41.760 in a similar fashion.

00:45:44.060 I feel like the constant

00:45:46.340 is so that

00:45:47.200 the simulation

00:45:48.240 treats everything

00:45:49.700 in the simulation

00:45:50.500 the same

00:45:51.640 at the same time.

00:45:54.320 Just a hypothesis.

00:45:56.220 I'll just put that out there.

00:45:57.280 So, did you hear

00:46:01.460 that Russia 0.72

00:46:01.980 exited

00:46:02.640 the grain deal

00:46:04.640 where they were

00:46:05.160 going to allow

00:46:05.600 safe passage

00:46:06.340 of the grain

00:46:06.960 from Ukraine

00:46:07.760 out to,

00:46:09.540 is it the Black Sea?

00:46:10.660 Yeah, the Black Sea.

00:46:12.080 And

00:46:12.520 then Russia

00:46:14.080 pulled out of the deal

00:46:15.720 because Ukraine

00:46:16.640 sent a bunch of

00:46:18.560 I guess

00:46:19.880 water drones

00:46:21.800 and attacked

00:46:22.720 the fleet.

00:46:24.060 So Russia's fleet 0.79

00:46:25.020 got a big attack

00:46:25.900 a few days ago

00:46:27.260 based on drones.

00:46:29.800 And there's actually

00:46:30.560 some video

00:46:31.120 from one of the drones

00:46:32.180 which is

00:46:33.900 I can't imagine

00:46:35.380 wanting to be

00:46:36.240 in the water

00:46:37.020 when one of those

00:46:37.880 drones is there

00:46:38.620 because you can see

00:46:39.800 it like speeding

00:46:40.420 toward the boat

00:46:41.180 and then you see

00:46:42.160 the anti-drone

00:46:43.300 defenses

00:46:44.560 and it's like

00:46:45.180 goes around them

00:46:46.000 and stuff

00:46:46.400 and I'm like

00:46:46.780 holy shit.

00:46:48.340 If you had enough

00:46:49.320 of these aquatic drones

00:46:50.380 I think you could

00:46:51.120 take out

00:46:51.580 just about

00:46:52.180 any warship

00:46:53.380 because

00:46:54.920 so here's

00:47:00.040 a guy

00:47:00.640 Smithson says

00:47:02.000 Scott

00:47:02.900 duped again

00:47:03.780 only

00:47:04.880 exited a deal

00:47:06.300 because Ukraine

00:47:07.140 bombing ships.

00:47:09.520 Alright

00:47:09.720 I have to

00:47:11.920 pause again

00:47:12.540 for another

00:47:13.660 fucking idiot. 0.98

00:47:15.120 So this is

00:47:15.940 only a message

00:47:16.620 for fucking idiots. 0.97

00:47:18.080 Everybody else

00:47:18.660 you can ignore this.

00:47:20.640 Anything I ever

00:47:21.740 say about Ukraine

00:47:22.820 you should assume

00:47:24.620 is very low

00:47:26.140 credibility

00:47:26.680 because all sources

00:47:28.300 Russian and Ukrainian

00:47:30.100 have no credibility.

00:47:33.060 Got it?

00:47:34.320 So if you'd like

00:47:35.300 to send it

00:47:35.820 if you'd like

00:47:36.600 to put a comment

00:47:37.540 in here that says

00:47:38.400 Scott doesn't know

00:47:39.980 information from

00:47:41.680 the Ukraine war

00:47:42.440 is low credibility

00:47:43.580 well you would be

00:47:45.160 wasting your

00:47:45.760 fucking time

00:47:46.540 because we all

00:47:47.900 know that.

00:47:49.960 Guy did nothing wrong.

00:47:51.360 Alright

00:47:53.540 so we're done

00:47:54.120 with you.

00:47:56.060 So again

00:47:56.800 we don't know

00:47:57.340 what's true

00:47:57.780 but the story

00:47:58.720 is

00:47:59.080 that

00:48:00.740 Russia

00:48:01.580 was using

00:48:02.180 the

00:48:02.620 attack

00:48:03.800 as an excuse

00:48:04.660 for saying

00:48:05.760 they're pulling

00:48:06.160 out of the deal

00:48:06.660 and they said

00:48:08.200 we can allow

00:48:09.120 the grain

00:48:09.620 to go out

00:48:10.240 if Ukraine

00:48:11.440 will agree

00:48:12.400 to stop

00:48:13.000 destroying

00:48:13.480 our navy.

00:48:14.320 And as other

00:48:16.480 people have

00:48:17.000 pointed out

00:48:17.620 we've come

00:48:19.600 a long way

00:48:20.180 from

00:48:20.540 Russia is 0.79

00:48:21.680 going to

00:48:22.020 conquer

00:48:22.340 Ukraine

00:48:22.840 in 24 hours

00:48:23.880 or whatever

00:48:24.500 the hell

00:48:24.760 it was

00:48:25.060 they've gone

00:48:26.300 all the way

00:48:26.760 to

00:48:26.980 please don't

00:48:27.880 destroy

00:48:28.200 our navy

00:48:28.680 that actually

00:48:30.700 is happening.

00:48:32.300 Russia is 0.79

00:48:33.040 basically

00:48:33.460 trying to

00:48:34.880 negotiate

00:48:35.340 to not

00:48:35.960 have their

00:48:36.380 navy

00:48:36.680 destroyed

00:48:37.400 because it

00:48:38.880 looks like

00:48:39.380 Ukraine

00:48:40.200 could just

00:48:40.640 use these

00:48:41.300 drones

00:48:42.600 I don't know

00:48:43.960 how fast

00:48:44.380 we can

00:48:44.680 make drones

00:48:45.200 and ship

00:48:45.600 them to

00:48:45.880 them

00:48:46.040 but I bet

00:48:46.840 we can

00:48:47.160 make them

00:48:47.660 and ship

00:48:48.080 them to

00:48:48.380 them faster

00:48:48.840 than they

00:48:49.260 can make

00:48:49.620 battleships

00:48:50.300 or destroyers

00:48:51.660 or whatever

00:48:52.000 we're blowing

00:48:53.040 up.

00:48:54.660 So I think

00:48:56.420 that Russia's 0.89

00:48:58.140 naval superiority

00:48:59.060 is over

00:48:59.700 and it turns

00:49:01.560 out I didn't

00:49:02.080 know this

00:49:02.420 until today

00:49:02.960 but apparently

00:49:03.820 Turkey has 0.93

00:49:04.660 a massive

00:49:05.160 naval force

00:49:06.500 there

00:49:06.780 as you know

00:49:08.120 makes sense

00:49:08.680 it's their

00:49:09.260 backyard

00:49:09.600 so apparently

00:49:11.240 Turkey just 0.73

00:49:12.260 said

00:49:12.440 well we

00:49:12.900 are going

00:49:13.260 to ship

00:49:14.800 this grain

00:49:15.300 so Turkey 0.52

00:49:16.200 and Ukraine

00:49:16.720 just decided

00:49:17.400 they're going

00:49:17.700 to ship

00:49:18.000 some grain

00:49:18.440 whether Russia

00:49:19.000 likes it

00:49:19.400 or not

00:49:19.760 and Russia

00:49:21.000 decided to

00:49:21.620 let it go

00:49:22.120 because they

00:49:23.160 don't want to

00:49:23.520 fuck with

00:49:23.920 the Turkish

00:49:24.960 navy

00:49:25.340 apparently

00:49:25.800 now I don't

00:49:27.100 know if

00:49:27.340 that's true

00:49:27.780 remember

00:49:28.880 every part

00:49:29.700 of this

00:49:30.060 is low

00:49:31.240 credibility

00:49:31.640 but that's

00:49:32.760 the story

00:49:33.120 of today

00:49:33.580 right

00:49:35.760 yeah

00:49:38.400 so it's

00:49:39.820 funny how

00:49:40.200 the news

00:49:40.860 continues

00:49:41.860 to describe

00:49:43.060 Russia as

00:49:45.880 poor and

00:49:46.840 incompetent

00:49:47.680 and you

00:49:48.300 know

00:49:48.480 paper tiger

00:49:49.320 and all that

00:49:50.000 stuff

00:49:50.280 I don't know

00:49:51.320 if any of

00:49:51.680 that's true

00:49:52.040 I really

00:49:53.360 don't

00:49:54.700 all right

00:49:55.700 what else

00:49:57.480 is fun

00:49:57.920 so

00:50:00.620 I'm going to

00:50:02.700 file this

00:50:03.260 under

00:50:03.580 everything that

00:50:04.920 they told you

00:50:05.520 was bullshit

00:50:06.540 and whoever

00:50:07.740 they is

00:50:08.400 anybody in

00:50:09.200 charge

00:50:09.520 any expert

00:50:11.220 everything

00:50:12.380 they told you

00:50:12.920 is bullshit

00:50:13.300 here's the

00:50:14.180 here's one

00:50:14.700 for today

00:50:15.240 did you

00:50:16.940 know that

00:50:17.500 plastic

00:50:19.160 isn't really

00:50:19.760 recycled

00:50:20.220 I can't

00:50:23.760 believe I'm

00:50:24.180 saying that

00:50:24.900 you know

00:50:26.060 all those

00:50:26.320 plastic bottles

00:50:27.200 I carefully

00:50:30.080 separate them

00:50:30.840 and recycle

00:50:31.380 them

00:50:31.740 not

00:50:34.120 recycled

00:50:34.560 nope

00:50:36.420 not

00:50:37.280 recycled

00:50:37.740 and in

00:50:38.800 fact

00:50:39.120 they end

00:50:39.960 up in

00:50:40.300 garbage

00:50:40.620 in

00:50:41.140 Asian

00:50:42.400 countries

00:50:42.840 I think

00:50:43.300 and then it

00:50:44.260 gets into the

00:50:44.720 water supply

00:50:45.200 and it

00:50:45.440 kills us

00:50:45.800 all

00:50:46.020 so apparently

00:50:47.740 the worst

00:50:48.200 thing you can

00:50:48.660 do is

00:50:48.980 recycle your

00:50:49.640 plastic bottles

00:50:50.400 you should

00:50:50.840 throw them

00:50:51.140 in the

00:50:51.340 regular

00:50:51.620 trash

00:50:52.100 I learned

00:50:52.860 this from

00:50:53.340 Michael

00:50:53.680 Schellenberger

00:50:54.240 in a tweet

00:50:54.800 today

00:50:55.080 I'd never

00:50:55.600 heard this

00:50:56.020 before

00:50:56.340 now I'll

00:50:57.400 tell you

00:50:57.620 what I

00:50:57.860 had heard

00:50:58.320 I remember

00:51:00.340 years ago

00:51:01.000 there was

00:51:01.320 an expose

00:51:01.880 where they

00:51:03.060 showed a

00:51:03.420 video of

00:51:04.760 all of the

00:51:05.320 recycling stuff

00:51:06.300 taken to

00:51:06.860 a central

00:51:07.440 place

00:51:07.880 and it

00:51:08.800 all got

00:51:09.260 ended up

00:51:10.440 in the same

00:51:10.820 garbage

00:51:11.180 with everything

00:51:11.640 else

00:51:12.000 but I

00:51:13.080 remember

00:51:13.700 thinking

00:51:14.140 well that's

00:51:14.500 probably

00:51:14.780 an exception

00:51:16.100 or maybe

00:51:17.940 it's early

00:51:18.500 in the

00:51:18.800 recycling

00:51:19.220 phase

00:51:19.800 but

00:51:20.080 eventually

00:51:20.960 we will

00:51:22.300 in fact

00:51:22.720 be recycling

00:51:23.440 everything

00:51:23.900 because

00:51:24.620 everybody's

00:51:26.120 trying so

00:51:26.560 hard to do

00:51:27.000 it

00:51:27.200 but apparently

00:51:28.460 we never

00:51:28.920 got there

00:51:29.400 I think

00:51:30.740 only 2%

00:51:31.460 or something

00:51:32.020 of plastic

00:51:32.500 gets recycled

00:51:33.220 because it

00:51:34.000 must be

00:51:34.280 hard to do

00:51:34.800 and it

00:51:36.600 just gets

00:51:36.900 thrown away

00:51:37.360 so Schellenberger

00:51:38.320 says the

00:51:38.940 worst thing

00:51:39.360 you can do

00:51:39.740 is recycle

00:51:40.280 your plastic

00:51:40.840 you should

00:51:41.260 throw it

00:51:41.620 in the

00:51:41.820 regular

00:51:42.080 garbage

00:51:42.460 and let

00:51:43.600 it get

00:51:43.860 incinerated

00:51:44.560 or whatever

00:51:45.020 the hell

00:51:45.280 happens to

00:51:45.740 it

00:51:45.940 I don't know

00:51:47.180 but I can't

00:51:47.720 even imagine

00:51:48.140 that's better

00:51:48.660 I don't know

00:51:49.520 how anything

00:51:49.920 is better

00:51:50.400 it sounds

00:51:51.280 like plastic

00:51:51.800 is just

00:51:52.160 poison

00:51:52.500 alright

00:51:54.280 so don't

00:51:54.920 believe anything

00:51:55.420 anybody

00:51:55.700 tells you

00:51:56.180 alright

00:51:57.100 here's some

00:51:57.520 Rasmussen

00:51:58.000 polling

00:51:58.720 information

00:51:59.220 so we're

00:51:59.920 a week

00:52:00.220 before election

00:52:00.800 day

00:52:01.000 for the

00:52:01.240 midterms

00:52:01.660 and

00:52:03.140 half of

00:52:04.080 voters

00:52:04.360 say inflation

00:52:05.120 and the

00:52:05.580 economy

00:52:05.980 are the

00:52:06.360 most important

00:52:06.860 issues

00:52:07.240 alright

00:52:08.260 so 26%

00:52:09.680 of likely

00:52:10.680 voters

00:52:11.080 say inflation

00:52:11.820 is the

00:52:12.160 most important

00:52:12.640 issue

00:52:12.940 and

00:52:14.480 22%

00:52:16.920 coming in

00:52:18.340 a strong

00:52:18.700 second

00:52:19.060 say the

00:52:19.480 economy

00:52:19.900 is the

00:52:20.240 top

00:52:20.440 issue

00:52:20.740 that's

00:52:22.420 right

00:52:22.640 so we're

00:52:24.320 separating

00:52:24.800 inflation

00:52:25.440 from the

00:52:26.820 economy

00:52:27.280 in this

00:52:28.220 polling

00:52:30.360 situation

00:52:30.980 here

00:52:31.260 now

00:52:32.900 should

00:52:34.800 people

00:52:35.200 who can't

00:52:35.780 tell

00:52:36.100 that

00:52:36.820 inflation

00:52:37.300 is part

00:52:37.720 of the

00:52:37.920 economy

00:52:38.340 should

00:52:39.040 they be

00:52:39.380 allowed

00:52:39.660 to answer

00:52:40.020 polls

00:52:40.420 maybe

00:52:42.120 people

00:52:42.720 who can't

00:52:43.160 tell

00:52:43.300 that

00:52:43.500 inflation

00:52:43.900 really

00:52:44.300 is

00:52:44.580 the

00:52:44.920 economy

00:52:45.320 maybe

00:52:47.040 they

00:52:47.280 shouldn't

00:52:47.520 be

00:52:47.640 allowed

00:52:47.860 to

00:52:48.020 answer

00:52:48.180 polls

00:52:48.580 I'm

00:52:51.500 just

00:52:51.680 kidding

00:52:51.920 so

00:52:52.160 actually

00:52:52.520 the way

00:52:52.860 the poll

00:52:53.200 was

00:52:53.400 answered

00:52:53.920 it was

00:52:54.520 a reasonable

00:52:54.980 way to

00:52:55.300 answer it

00:52:55.800 it was

00:52:56.460 actually

00:52:56.700 reasonable

00:52:57.120 because

00:52:57.360 it's based

00:52:58.580 on asking

00:52:59.200 what's

00:52:59.480 the top

00:53:00.480 issue

00:53:00.800 and so

00:53:02.300 if some

00:53:02.700 people

00:53:02.980 pulled

00:53:03.320 inflation

00:53:03.780 out of

00:53:04.060 the economy

00:53:04.480 and said

00:53:04.740 that's

00:53:05.000 the top

00:53:05.300 issue

00:53:05.560 that's

00:53:06.220 not

00:53:06.380 crazy

00:53:06.740 but

00:53:07.980 it does

00:53:09.220 tell you

00:53:09.580 that it's

00:53:10.040 basically

00:53:10.400 the economy

00:53:11.080 right

00:53:11.920 the economy

00:53:13.180 is all

00:53:13.480 anybody cares

00:53:13.980 about

00:53:14.320 not anybody

00:53:15.480 I'm

00:53:15.680 exaggerating

00:53:16.120 but here's

00:53:17.140 a number

00:53:17.580 that surprised

00:53:18.280 me

00:53:18.580 now this

00:53:24.100 is a

00:53:24.380 ranking

00:53:24.720 of what

00:53:25.300 people

00:53:25.540 think

00:53:25.760 is most

00:53:26.120 important

00:53:26.480 only 19%

00:53:28.340 say abortion 0.70

00:53:28.980 rights

00:53:29.480 19%

00:53:32.580 that's

00:53:33.220 still a

00:53:33.560 lot

00:53:33.920 that does

00:53:34.960 seem like

00:53:35.340 enough

00:53:35.580 to move

00:53:36.180 an election

00:53:36.640 8%

00:53:38.020 say climate

00:53:39.000 change

00:53:39.520 8%

00:53:40.980 say violent

00:53:41.620 crime

00:53:42.120 does that

00:53:43.400 seem right

00:53:43.940 now 8%

00:53:45.940 say violent

00:53:46.580 crime

00:53:46.940 actually

00:53:47.460 makes sense

00:53:48.280 because that's

00:53:49.040 how many

00:53:49.340 people

00:53:49.660 probably

00:53:50.860 are in

00:53:51.280 dangerous

00:53:51.720 places

00:53:52.200 where I

00:53:54.200 live

00:53:54.520 I still

00:53:55.100 don't have

00:53:55.520 a big

00:53:56.880 violent

00:53:57.260 crime

00:53:57.620 problem

00:53:58.060 although

00:53:58.440 it's

00:53:59.000 definitely

00:53:59.240 ticking up

00:53:59.900 even where

00:54:00.900 I live

00:54:01.200 it's

00:54:01.380 ticking up

00:54:02.260 there's

00:54:02.820 some

00:54:02.960 home

00:54:03.160 invasions

00:54:03.720 in the

00:54:04.020 neighborhood

00:54:04.280 and stuff

00:54:04.680 but

00:54:05.640 I don't

00:54:07.420 think

00:54:07.860 about it

00:54:08.280 on a

00:54:08.540 day to

00:54:08.800 day

00:54:08.940 basis

00:54:09.400 like in

00:54:10.660 my

00:54:10.900 daily

00:54:11.400 travels

00:54:11.820 I don't

00:54:12.280 really

00:54:12.520 ever

00:54:12.700 think

00:54:12.920 about

00:54:13.120 crime

00:54:13.580 but

00:54:15.160 probably

00:54:15.480 about

00:54:15.700 8%

00:54:16.140 of the

00:54:16.380 country

00:54:16.640 lives

00:54:16.920 somewhere

00:54:17.240 where

00:54:17.480 it's

00:54:17.620 all

00:54:17.760 they

00:54:17.900 have

00:54:18.060 to

00:54:18.160 think

00:54:18.340 about

00:54:18.640 so

00:54:20.720 and maybe

00:54:21.760 more than

00:54:22.140 that

00:54:22.320 because

00:54:22.480 those

00:54:22.680 are the

00:54:23.020 city

00:54:24.260 centers

00:54:24.620 but it

00:54:25.820 still

00:54:25.960 seems

00:54:26.180 like a

00:54:26.500 low

00:54:26.660 number

00:54:26.960 I'm

00:54:27.480 surprised

00:54:27.780 that's

00:54:28.060 not

00:54:28.200 bigger

00:54:28.440 and

00:54:29.960 only

00:54:30.200 2%

00:54:30.700 of

00:54:31.040 people

00:54:31.980 say

00:54:32.720 that

00:54:33.040 Ukraine

00:54:33.600 or

00:54:33.940 LGBT

00:54:34.400 rights

00:54:34.960 matter

00:54:35.340 to

00:54:35.500 them

00:54:35.680 in

00:54:36.600 terms

00:54:36.880 of

00:54:37.100 ranked

00:54:37.620 at

00:54:37.860 the

00:54:38.020 top

00:54:38.280 so

00:54:40.440 here's

00:54:41.660 the

00:54:41.800 good

00:54:41.980 news

00:54:42.340 I

00:54:43.500 feel

00:54:43.760 like

00:54:43.940 people

00:54:44.200 have

00:54:44.400 their

00:54:44.580 priorities

00:54:45.020 right

00:54:45.440 don't

00:54:46.680 you

00:54:46.900 I

00:54:48.820 would

00:54:49.020 be

00:54:49.180 worried

00:54:49.600 if

00:54:50.460 one

00:54:51.300 of

00:54:51.420 these

00:54:51.740 lesser

00:54:52.220 issues

00:54:52.880 happened

00:54:53.940 to be

00:54:54.160 at

00:54:54.260 the

00:54:54.380 top

00:54:54.700 is

00:54:55.740 that

00:54:55.920 good

00:54:56.220 news

00:54:56.620 it

00:54:57.660 feels

00:54:57.880 like

00:54:58.140 it

00:54:58.240 doesn't

00:54:58.500 it

00:54:59.260 it

00:54:59.560 feels

00:54:59.780 like

00:54:59.980 good

00:55:00.200 news

00:55:00.540 that

00:55:00.900 when

00:55:01.580 we

00:55:01.740 look

00:55:01.960 at

00:55:02.080 the

00:55:02.220 list

00:55:02.440 of

00:55:02.600 priorities

00:55:03.080 we're

00:55:04.320 kind

00:55:04.560 of

00:55:04.660 all

00:55:04.820 on

00:55:04.920 the

00:55:05.000 same

00:55:05.160 page

00:55:05.540 in

00:55:06.160 the

00:55:06.260 country

00:55:06.560 we have

00:55:07.620 different

00:55:07.880 ideas

00:55:08.220 what

00:55:08.440 to

00:55:08.580 do

00:55:08.700 about

00:55:08.920 it

00:55:09.160 but

00:55:09.920 I

00:55:10.200 feel

00:55:10.400 like

00:55:10.580 that's

00:55:10.820 unusual

00:55:11.220 that

00:55:11.500 we're

00:55:11.640 even

00:55:11.840 on

00:55:12.040 the

00:55:12.160 same

00:55:13.460 side

00:55:13.940 of

00:55:16.900 that's

00:55:17.240 a

00:55:17.380 little

00:55:17.800 bit

00:55:18.080 unusual

00:55:18.540 isn't

00:55:18.880 it

00:55:19.520 maybe

00:55:20.840 it

00:55:21.060 maybe

00:55:21.700 it

00:55:21.860 suggests

00:55:22.160 something

00:55:22.480 good

00:55:22.740 is

00:55:22.880 going

00:55:23.080 to

00:55:23.160 happen

00:55:23.400 but

00:55:25.240 illegal

00:55:27.960 immigration

00:55:28.520 was only

00:55:29.120 the most

00:55:29.480 important

00:55:29.800 thing

00:55:30.040 to

00:55:30.200 I guess

00:55:30.500 8%

00:55:31.100 you know

00:55:32.760 what's

00:55:32.920 weird

00:55:33.120 about

00:55:33.380 illegal

00:55:33.860 immigration

00:55:34.360 here's

00:55:35.780 what I

00:55:36.120 can't

00:55:36.440 understand

00:55:36.940 I

00:55:39.140 don't

00:55:39.420 understand

00:55:40.020 why the

00:55:40.880 impact

00:55:41.460 of it

00:55:41.820 on my

00:55:42.220 day to

00:55:42.580 day

00:55:42.720 life

00:55:43.040 is not

00:55:43.460 bigger

00:55:43.840 is

00:55:45.920 anybody

00:55:46.180 else

00:55:46.580 having

00:55:46.820 that

00:55:47.080 or

00:55:47.620 maybe

00:55:48.740 it's

00:55:48.960 like

00:55:49.120 a

00:55:49.280 huge

00:55:49.600 impact

00:55:50.000 in

00:55:50.200 some

00:55:50.400 small

00:55:50.900 areas

00:55:51.620 right

00:55:52.920 now

00:55:53.340 I

00:55:53.460 don't

00:55:53.620 live

00:55:53.800 on

00:55:53.920 the

00:55:54.040 border

00:55:54.320 so

00:55:54.760 if

00:55:54.880 I

00:55:55.000 lived

00:55:55.260 on

00:55:56.080 the

00:55:56.200 border

00:55:56.420 I'd

00:55:56.680 be

00:55:56.880 probably

00:55:57.400 complaining

00:55:57.960 every

00:55:58.240 day

00:55:58.480 but

00:55:59.300 why

00:55:59.680 does

00:55:59.900 that

00:56:00.060 problem

00:56:00.520 not

00:56:01.900 spread

00:56:02.520 faster

00:56:03.120 from

00:56:03.440 the

00:56:03.600 border

00:56:03.920 right

00:56:04.960 I'm

00:56:05.440 in

00:56:05.540 a

00:56:05.720 border

00:56:06.040 state

00:56:07.120 but

00:56:08.080 I'm

00:56:08.280 in

00:56:08.380 the

00:56:08.540 northern

00:56:08.780 part

00:56:09.120 of

00:56:09.220 the

00:56:09.320 border

00:56:09.540 state

00:56:09.860 and

00:56:10.040 here

00:56:10.280 I

00:56:10.980 don't

00:56:11.120 really

00:56:11.360 see

00:56:11.780 I'll

00:56:12.760 tell you

00:56:12.980 the

00:56:13.100 only

00:56:13.260 place

00:56:13.540 I

00:56:13.680 see

00:56:13.920 the

00:56:14.240 impact

00:56:15.360 is

00:56:16.100 there

00:56:16.280 are

00:56:16.520 quite

00:56:17.340 a few

00:56:17.640 students

00:56:18.200 who

00:56:19.540 are

00:56:20.040 shall we

00:56:21.340 say

00:56:21.500 undocumented

00:56:22.160 immigrants

00:56:22.920 so a lot

00:56:24.280 of the

00:56:24.520 students

00:56:24.800 in the

00:56:25.080 schools

00:56:25.500 are

00:56:26.100 clear

00:56:26.380 there

00:56:26.560 but

00:56:27.060 it

00:56:28.080 doesn't

00:56:28.520 affect

00:56:29.000 people

00:56:29.320 too

00:56:29.540 much

00:56:29.920 they

00:56:31.480 make

00:56:31.920 friends

00:56:32.300 they

00:56:32.760 stay

00:56:33.380 with

00:56:33.600 their

00:56:33.820 group

00:56:35.200 doesn't

00:56:37.140 seem to

00:56:37.420 make

00:56:37.540 much

00:56:37.740 difference

00:56:38.180 where

00:56:39.580 I

00:56:40.020 am

00:56:40.240 healthcare

00:56:42.180 is

00:56:42.440 overloaded

00:56:43.140 well

00:56:43.760 maybe

00:56:44.020 that's

00:56:44.280 why

00:56:44.440 I

00:56:44.580 can't

00:56:44.780 get

00:56:44.900 healthcare

00:56:45.280 effectively

00:56:46.340 so

00:56:47.500 that's

00:56:47.720 a good

00:56:47.900 point

00:56:48.160 but

00:56:48.400 I

00:56:48.520 wouldn't

00:56:48.740 know

00:56:48.960 that

00:56:49.140 that's

00:56:49.360 why

00:56:49.540 I

00:56:49.940 think

00:56:50.120 that's

00:56:50.320 more

00:56:50.460 about

00:56:50.640 a

00:56:50.800 staffing

00:56:51.120 problem

00:56:51.520 isn't

00:56:51.760 it

00:56:52.420 I

00:56:52.920 think

00:56:53.360 healthcare

00:56:53.700 is

00:56:53.860 more

00:56:54.020 of

00:56:54.120 a

00:56:54.240 staffing

00:56:54.540 problem

00:56:54.960 but

00:56:55.220 I'm

00:56:55.340 not

00:56:55.540 sure

00:56:55.820 all

00:56:58.220 right

00:56:58.420 so

00:57:00.860 I'm

00:57:01.340 just

00:57:01.500 going

00:57:01.620 to

00:57:01.660 make

00:57:01.820 the

00:57:02.020 comment

00:57:02.420 that

00:57:03.020 everybody

00:57:04.140 feels

00:57:05.560 the

00:57:05.740 economy

00:57:06.040 and

00:57:06.240 everybody

00:57:06.520 feels

00:57:06.840 inflation

00:57:07.260 but

00:57:08.760 the

00:57:09.200 poll

00:57:09.560 I

00:57:09.740 think

00:57:09.920 reflects

00:57:10.440 that

00:57:10.680 not

00:57:10.880 everybody

00:57:11.240 feels

00:57:11.560 anything

00:57:11.940 about

00:57:12.280 immigration

00:57:12.980 most

00:57:15.080 people

00:57:15.400 I

00:57:15.560 think

00:57:15.780 don't

00:57:16.220 feel

00:57:16.460 the

00:57:16.660 direct

00:57:17.040 immigration

00:57:17.600 effect

00:57:18.080 although

00:57:18.460 it's

00:57:18.760 probably

00:57:19.060 affecting

00:57:19.460 us

00:57:19.720 in a

00:57:20.520 big

00:57:20.660 way

00:57:20.960 indirectly

00:57:21.600 and

00:57:21.860 then

00:57:21.980 the

00:57:22.140 fentanyl

00:57:22.500 thing

00:57:22.700 you

00:57:22.840 might

00:57:23.040 connect

00:57:23.640 with

00:57:23.820 that

00:57:23.980 right

00:57:24.220 exactly

00:57:26.120 Supreme

00:57:29.720 Court

00:57:30.240 is

00:57:31.360 listening

00:57:31.740 to

00:57:31.920 this

00:57:32.100 case

00:57:32.400 about

00:57:32.740 racial

00:57:33.260 discrimination

00:57:33.880 in

00:57:34.180 college

00:57:34.640 admissions

00:57:35.160 and

00:57:36.540 I guess

00:57:36.800 Harvard

00:57:37.120 and

00:57:37.560 University

00:57:37.980 of

00:57:38.140 North

00:57:38.320 Carolina

00:57:38.740 are

00:57:39.080 arguing

00:57:39.460 that

00:57:39.760 they

00:57:39.940 should

00:57:40.160 be

00:57:40.320 able

00:57:40.480 to

00:57:40.640 use

00:57:40.960 race

00:57:42.220 in part

00:57:42.920 of their

00:57:43.300 decision

00:57:44.360 making

00:57:44.640 about

00:57:44.880 who

00:57:45.020 to

00:57:45.160 bring

00:57:45.900 in

00:57:46.080 and

00:57:46.600 I guess

00:57:46.840 it's

00:57:47.060 Asian

00:57:47.420 Americans

00:57:47.840 who

00:57:48.300 were

00:57:49.140 the

00:57:49.500 victim

00:57:50.980 class

00:57:51.480 in

00:57:51.660 these

00:57:51.860 lawsuits

00:57:52.260 or

00:57:53.540 these

00:57:53.780 actions

00:57:54.160 and

00:57:55.260 here's

00:57:56.880 something

00:57:57.120 that I

00:57:57.400 didn't

00:57:57.540 know

00:57:57.780 a little

00:57:58.060 background

00:57:58.480 that's

00:57:58.740 very

00:57:59.000 interesting

00:57:59.380 so

00:58:00.600 there

00:58:01.060 was

00:58:01.200 a

00:58:01.360 case

00:58:01.620 in

00:58:01.780 2003

00:58:02.440 Grutter

00:58:03.580 vs.

00:58:04.120 Bollinger

00:58:04.480 in

00:58:05.840 which

00:58:06.200 Justice

00:58:07.280 Sandra

00:58:07.680 Day

00:58:07.880 O'Connor

00:58:08.280 wrote

00:58:09.660 and I

00:58:10.160 guess

00:58:10.280 that was

00:58:10.660 the thing

00:58:11.460 that allowed

00:58:12.140 colleges

00:58:13.620 to use

00:58:14.280 race

00:58:14.660 in

00:58:14.960 admissions

00:58:15.340 so

00:58:16.260 in

00:58:16.380 2003

00:58:16.940 there was

00:58:17.240 a case

00:58:17.580 that gave

00:58:18.520 them the

00:58:18.800 cover

00:58:19.080 to use

00:58:19.780 race

00:58:20.080 in

00:58:20.300 admissions

00:58:20.680 and

00:58:21.920 then

00:58:22.220 even

00:58:22.800 when that

00:58:23.240 decision

00:58:23.580 was made

00:58:24.220 25

00:58:25.400 years ago

00:58:26.140 Sandra

00:58:26.580 Day

00:58:26.800 O'Connor

00:58:27.140 said

00:58:27.500 that

00:58:28.300 probably

00:58:28.720 you

00:58:28.940 wouldn't

00:58:29.160 need

00:58:29.400 this

00:58:29.640 in

00:58:29.800 25

00:58:30.220 years

00:58:30.720 you

00:58:31.900 wouldn't

00:58:32.140 need

00:58:32.440 it

00:58:32.560 in

00:58:32.660 25

00:58:33.040 years

00:58:33.500 and

00:58:34.480 it's

00:58:34.900 19

00:58:35.200 years

00:58:35.500 from

00:58:35.680 then

00:58:35.860 that

00:58:37.520 was

00:58:37.700 a

00:58:37.820 pretty

00:58:37.960 good

00:58:38.200 call

00:58:38.580 to

00:58:40.000 talk

00:58:40.480 about

00:58:40.640 a

00:58:40.760 good

00:58:40.920 prediction

00:58:41.400 that

00:58:42.360 was

00:58:42.500 a

00:58:42.600 hell

00:58:42.740 of

00:58:42.860 a

00:58:42.980 prediction

00:58:43.340 and

00:58:44.700 also

00:58:45.080 I

00:58:45.400 would

00:58:45.580 argue

00:58:45.900 that's

00:58:46.780 the

00:58:46.960 best

00:58:47.240 of

00:58:47.440 America

00:58:47.860 right

00:58:48.120 there

00:58:48.340 that's

00:58:49.280 the

00:58:49.420 best

00:58:49.720 of

00:58:49.900 America

00:58:50.300 because

00:58:51.420 that

00:58:51.720 was

00:58:51.860 a

00:58:52.020 25

00:58:52.520 year

00:58:52.960 plan

00:58:53.480 to

00:58:54.260 fix

00:58:54.600 something

00:58:55.060 with

00:58:56.100 an

00:58:56.280 understanding

00:58:56.820 that

00:58:57.100 once

00:58:57.300 it

00:58:57.420 got

00:58:57.560 fixed

00:58:57.880 you

00:58:58.100 needed

00:58:58.340 to

00:58:58.580 adjust

00:58:59.900 again

00:59:00.380 damn

00:59:01.400 damn

00:59:02.780 you know

00:59:04.060 if I'd

00:59:04.600 known

00:59:05.020 that that

00:59:06.160 was a

00:59:06.540 sort of

00:59:07.460 a

00:59:07.600 25

00:59:07.980 year

00:59:08.640 expectation

00:59:09.200 now it's

00:59:09.740 not a

00:59:10.020 binding

00:59:10.380 kind of

00:59:10.900 thing

00:59:11.100 it was

00:59:11.280 just a

00:59:11.640 prediction

00:59:11.980 but that

00:59:13.560 would have

00:59:13.860 felt

00:59:14.140 different

00:59:14.480 to me

00:59:14.920 than

00:59:16.020 imagining

00:59:16.480 it's

00:59:16.760 some

00:59:16.960 permanent

00:59:17.420 condition

00:59:17.960 it would

00:59:19.400 have felt

00:59:19.640 different

00:59:19.940 so good

00:59:21.600 job

00:59:22.000 Sandra Day

00:59:22.600 O'Connor

00:59:23.000 on that

00:59:23.360 prediction

00:59:23.700 but we'll

00:59:24.540 see if it

00:59:24.880 makes any

00:59:25.220 difference

00:59:25.500 we'll see

00:59:25.820 if she's

00:59:26.100 right

00:59:26.300 Harvard

00:59:28.400 apparently

00:59:29.000 wants to

00:59:29.660 use

00:59:30.040 race

00:59:30.440 forever

00:59:31.000 even if

00:59:33.120 they reach

00:59:33.800 some kind

00:59:34.260 of parity

00:59:34.760 they just

00:59:35.920 always want

00:59:36.400 to use

00:59:36.680 it

00:59:36.900 and it

00:59:37.840 sounds like

00:59:38.320 the argument

00:59:39.500 in favor

00:59:40.240 of keeping

00:59:40.680 it is

00:59:41.160 weak

00:59:41.680 so

00:59:43.340 it's hard

00:59:44.340 to know

00:59:44.640 how the

00:59:45.120 court will

00:59:45.920 rule

00:59:46.300 based on

00:59:46.860 the questions

00:59:47.360 they ask

00:59:47.980 but so

00:59:48.900 far it

00:59:49.420 looks like

00:59:50.040 it's going

00:59:51.440 to be

00:59:51.600 overturned

00:59:52.260 and I

00:59:53.400 think race

00:59:53.920 will

00:59:54.260 not be

00:59:55.900 allowed

00:59:57.220 as a

00:59:57.960 tool

00:59:59.700 for

00:59:59.940 admissions

01:00:00.380 overturning

01:00:06.200 is probable

01:00:06.720 yeah

01:00:07.180 now

01:00:08.160 that's

01:00:08.700 what you

01:00:08.960 get with

01:00:09.340 your

01:00:09.680 conservative

01:00:11.600 court

01:00:12.060 right

01:00:12.340 there's

01:00:12.960 no way

01:00:13.300 this would

01:00:13.620 get overturned

01:00:14.420 with a

01:00:14.980 liberal

01:00:15.380 court

01:00:15.840 wouldn't

01:00:16.700 you agree

01:00:17.080 I think

01:00:19.600 so

01:00:19.880 all right

01:00:22.380 well we'll

01:00:23.280 see what

01:00:23.560 happens

01:00:23.840 there

01:00:24.060 all right

01:00:25.020 ladies and 0.98

01:00:25.500 gentlemen

01:00:25.780 it's another

01:00:29.040 wonderful day

01:00:29.740 in which

01:00:30.040 we'll be

01:00:30.400 waiting for

01:00:31.100 Elon Musk

01:00:31.820 to make

01:00:32.240 us more

01:00:32.620 news

01:00:33.000 because he's

01:00:34.440 in charge

01:00:34.780 of making

01:00:35.080 news now

01:00:35.580 and if

01:00:37.040 he doesn't

01:00:37.400 tweet today

01:00:37.960 I don't

01:00:38.420 know what

01:00:38.640 I'm going

01:00:38.840 to talk

01:00:39.100 about

01:00:39.400 yeah

01:00:45.820 sunset it

01:00:47.140 exactly

01:00:47.680 you know

01:00:49.360 what I

01:00:49.620 think

01:00:50.220 if you're

01:00:50.680 going to

01:00:50.860 get rid

01:00:51.220 of racial

01:00:51.840 preferences

01:00:52.460 in

01:00:53.980 colleges

01:00:54.420 I feel

01:00:57.600 like it

01:00:57.920 should be

01:00:58.840 accompanied

01:00:59.300 with some

01:00:59.720 kind of

01:01:00.020 like a

01:01:00.520 celebration

01:01:01.080 and like a

01:01:03.560 congratulations

01:01:04.320 to black

01:01:05.040 Americans in

01:01:05.740 particular

01:01:06.200 because

01:01:08.440 correct me

01:01:10.880 if I'm

01:01:11.140 wrong

01:01:11.460 did not

01:01:12.920 black

01:01:13.320 Americans

01:01:13.820 fight for

01:01:14.940 you know

01:01:15.620 exactly this

01:01:16.540 sort of thing

01:01:17.280 for the last

01:01:17.760 19 years

01:01:18.840 and did it

01:01:20.120 not help

01:01:20.560 them

01:01:20.800 probably did

01:01:21.940 probably helped

01:01:23.020 a lot

01:01:23.400 and

01:01:24.800 you know

01:01:26.060 if you reach

01:01:26.560 a point

01:01:26.860 where the

01:01:27.520 help has

01:01:28.180 reached a

01:01:29.020 sufficient

01:01:29.360 level

01:01:29.780 if black

01:01:31.420 Americans

01:01:31.860 were willing

01:01:32.720 to release

01:01:33.420 on that

01:01:33.860 that would

01:01:35.160 go a long

01:01:35.700 way

01:01:36.080 for

01:01:37.520 you know

01:01:38.680 racial

01:01:39.180 harmony

01:01:40.040 wouldn't

01:01:41.340 it

01:01:41.860 this is

01:01:43.820 one of

01:01:44.100 those

01:01:44.280 opportunities

01:01:44.840 where

01:01:46.180 saying the

01:01:46.960 right thing

01:01:47.460 could make

01:01:47.880 such a

01:01:48.260 difference

01:01:48.600 how would

01:01:50.280 you feel

01:01:50.700 about

01:01:51.200 people who

01:01:52.960 use racial

01:01:54.080 preferences

01:01:54.720 to get

01:01:55.920 into college

01:01:56.520 you're probably

01:01:56.880 saying

01:01:57.180 I understand

01:01:59.600 why it

01:02:00.060 exists

01:02:00.560 I understand

01:02:01.780 the history

01:02:02.220 of it

01:02:02.580 but isn't

01:02:03.780 it time

01:02:04.140 to do away

01:02:04.640 with that

01:02:05.040 so you don't

01:02:05.980 like the

01:02:06.300 racial

01:02:06.560 preferences

01:02:07.020 it gives

01:02:08.040 you a bad

01:02:08.460 feeling about

01:02:09.140 maybe people

01:02:10.020 who benefited

01:02:10.520 from it

01:02:11.120 it's sort

01:02:11.880 of automatic

01:02:12.520 but suppose

01:02:13.640 the people

01:02:14.040 who benefited

01:02:14.500 from it

01:02:15.180 said thank

01:02:16.600 you very

01:02:16.960 much

01:02:17.320 we appreciate

01:02:19.500 it

01:02:19.860 and now

01:02:20.740 we can

01:02:21.480 release

01:02:21.860 on it

01:02:22.300 that's

01:02:23.620 George

01:02:23.920 Washington

01:02:24.400 level

01:02:24.880 and it's

01:02:26.120 not going

01:02:26.460 to happen

01:02:26.780 imagine

01:02:27.660 having a

01:02:28.740 really good

01:02:29.840 black leader

01:02:30.560 like a

01:02:31.180 Martin Luther

01:02:31.780 King

01:02:32.080 type

01:02:32.400 imagine

01:02:33.340 Martin

01:02:33.660 Luther

01:02:33.880 King

01:02:34.140 saying

01:02:34.440 you know

01:02:34.700 what

01:02:34.940 thank

01:02:36.040 you

01:02:36.320 damn

01:02:37.880 thank

01:02:38.180 you

01:02:38.380 thank

01:02:39.200 you

01:02:39.360 for

01:02:39.520 19

01:02:39.920 years

01:02:40.380 of

01:02:40.820 helping

01:02:41.140 to

01:02:41.420 make

01:02:42.240 this

01:02:42.440 more

01:02:42.660 even

01:02:42.920 and in

01:02:43.680 return

01:02:44.140 in return

01:02:45.580 we're going

01:02:45.920 to release

01:02:46.340 it

01:02:46.640 we're going

01:02:47.240 to George

01:02:47.940 Washington

01:02:48.440 and we're

01:02:49.560 going to

01:02:49.920 walk away

01:02:51.000 when we

01:02:51.380 didn't need

01:02:51.800 to

01:02:51.980 we could

01:02:52.660 have fought

01:02:52.960 to keep

01:02:53.320 it

01:02:53.520 but we're

01:02:54.440 going to

01:02:54.580 say just

01:02:54.880 say thank

01:02:55.300 you

01:02:55.460 and fight

01:02:57.680 other fights

01:02:58.360 together

01:02:58.800 because the

01:02:59.780 next fight

01:03:00.300 that the

01:03:00.600 black and

01:03:01.240 rest of the

01:03:01.960 world needs

01:03:02.680 to fight

01:03:03.060 is

01:03:04.160 teachers

01:03:04.740 unions

01:03:05.140 so

01:03:07.000 imagine a

01:03:08.380 world in

01:03:08.780 which we

01:03:09.100 declare a

01:03:09.980 collective

01:03:10.400 victory

01:03:10.960 in the

01:03:11.880 college

01:03:12.420 area

01:03:12.800 but don't

01:03:13.740 you know

01:03:14.020 don't

01:03:15.020 don't give

01:03:15.520 up on

01:03:15.860 making sure

01:03:16.320 that everybody's

01:03:17.240 got a chance

01:03:17.700 to go to

01:03:18.020 college

01:03:18.260 right

01:03:18.440 if that

01:03:19.600 even makes

01:03:20.040 sense

01:03:20.220 anymore

01:03:20.500 but say

01:03:21.780 how about

01:03:22.360 that was

01:03:22.940 great

01:03:23.320 how about

01:03:23.940 we work

01:03:24.380 together

01:03:24.700 and we

01:03:24.940 got that

01:03:25.320 done

01:03:25.600 and how

01:03:26.820 about

01:03:27.000 that was

01:03:27.340 just

01:03:27.520 awesome

01:03:27.840 and how

01:03:29.040 about

01:03:29.260 now

01:03:29.600 we've

01:03:30.360 reached

01:03:30.560 a different

01:03:30.900 point

01:03:31.180 in time

01:03:31.540 we both

01:03:32.580 agree

01:03:32.920 that that's

01:03:33.380 just a

01:03:33.720 thank you

01:03:34.080 situation

01:03:34.680 that's

01:03:35.380 that's

01:03:35.680 just

01:03:35.800 thank you

01:03:36.240 and then

01:03:37.440 we work

01:03:38.400 together

01:03:38.780 to solve

01:03:39.220 the next

01:03:39.640 biggest

01:03:40.000 problem

01:03:40.400 which is

01:03:40.900 correct me

01:03:42.520 if I'm

01:03:42.760 wrong

01:03:43.060 if you

01:03:44.160 fix

01:03:44.480 the lower

01:03:45.020 level

01:03:45.340 schools

01:03:45.980 you don't

01:03:47.400 need

01:03:47.820 to have

01:03:49.620 your colleges

01:03:50.240 be biased

01:03:51.220 because then

01:03:52.320 they just

01:03:52.840 accept everybody

01:03:53.580 who did a

01:03:54.020 good job

01:03:54.340 in school

01:03:54.740 and then

01:03:55.540 everybody's

01:03:55.960 happy

01:03:56.220 or close

01:03:57.780 to it

01:03:58.780 yeah

01:04:00.520 in terms

01:04:02.580 of persuasion

01:04:03.460 gratitude

01:04:05.020 is one

01:04:05.680 of the

01:04:05.900 strongest

01:04:06.580 pieces

01:04:08.600 pieces of

01:04:09.100 persuasion

01:04:09.920 you can

01:04:10.200 ever

01:04:10.360 use

01:04:10.640 when

01:04:11.300 somebody

01:04:11.620 shows

01:04:11.960 gratitude

01:04:12.560 it

01:04:13.380 completely

01:04:13.900 changes

01:04:14.440 how you

01:04:15.060 treat

01:04:15.340 them

01:04:15.620 right

01:04:16.500 if somebody

01:04:18.640 just asks

01:04:19.080 for something

01:04:19.620 and they've

01:04:19.960 got an

01:04:20.260 attitude

01:04:20.580 like

01:04:20.960 you owe

01:04:22.040 it to

01:04:22.300 them

01:04:22.460 you're

01:04:23.560 going to

01:04:23.700 do

01:04:23.800 everything

01:04:24.100 you can

01:04:24.440 not to

01:04:24.780 give it

01:04:25.000 to

01:04:25.100 them

01:04:25.260 but if

01:04:26.460 somebody

01:04:26.740 is like

01:04:27.020 really

01:04:27.320 genuinely

01:04:27.940 thankful

01:04:29.460 you actually

01:04:31.200 feel good

01:04:31.720 too

01:04:31.940 they get

01:04:32.940 something

01:04:33.260 and then

01:04:33.600 you get

01:04:33.920 something

01:04:34.240 and then

01:04:34.560 everybody's

01:04:34.940 happy

01:04:35.220 like that's

01:04:36.200 a perfect

01:04:36.540 world

01:04:36.900 so

01:04:38.220 but think

01:04:39.040 about it

01:04:39.380 think about

01:04:39.920 imagine if

01:04:40.800 the court

01:04:41.640 case goes

01:04:42.780 the way

01:04:43.980 I guess

01:04:44.820 it will go

01:04:45.260 and it

01:04:46.760 actually says

01:04:47.340 that was

01:04:47.660 great for

01:04:48.120 19 years

01:04:48.800 but now

01:04:49.140 we need

01:04:49.380 to make

01:04:49.680 an adjustment

01:04:50.160 should we

01:04:51.460 treat that

01:04:51.960 as we

01:04:52.520 lost

01:04:52.880 something

01:04:53.300 because I

01:04:54.340 fear that

01:04:55.060 I fear

01:04:56.380 that we'll

01:04:56.840 treat it

01:04:57.160 like a loss

01:04:57.840 or half the

01:04:58.760 country will

01:04:59.120 treat it

01:04:59.380 a loss

01:04:59.860 that should

01:05:00.900 be treated

01:05:01.280 like wow

01:05:02.740 that really

01:05:03.820 worked now

01:05:04.380 let's work

01:05:04.780 together on

01:05:05.340 the next

01:05:05.700 other problem

01:05:06.340 and then

01:05:07.140 have a victory

01:05:08.680 after that

01:05:09.180 as well

01:05:09.520 so maybe

01:05:11.760 we have

01:05:12.940 some opportunity

01:05:13.640 for the

01:05:14.080 golden age

01:05:14.740 maybe

01:05:15.800 yeah dream

01:05:17.180 on

01:05:17.460 you're right

01:05:18.280 dream on

01:05:18.820 I would argue

01:05:20.240 that the

01:05:20.800 biggest thing

01:05:21.740 that the

01:05:22.320 black community

01:05:23.300 in America

01:05:23.900 lacks 1.00

01:05:24.640 is a

01:05:26.140 capable

01:05:26.620 leader

01:05:27.080 would you

01:05:29.220 agree with

01:05:29.520 that

01:05:29.700 if I

01:05:31.320 ask you

01:05:31.600 who's the

01:05:32.140 leader

01:05:32.820 of black

01:05:33.780 America

01:05:34.220 I'm not

01:05:34.700 even sure

01:05:35.400 what names

01:05:36.340 I would

01:05:36.640 put in

01:05:36.900 the top

01:05:37.180 three

01:05:37.480 are you

01:05:39.480 you know

01:05:41.860 somebody says

01:05:42.540 Obama

01:05:42.960 but Obama

01:05:44.160 is successful

01:05:45.740 because he

01:05:46.420 wasn't a

01:05:46.940 black leader

01:05:47.480 like his

01:05:49.180 success

01:05:49.640 entirely

01:05:50.600 depended

01:05:51.120 on him

01:05:51.600 rejecting

01:05:52.200 the idea

01:05:53.700 that he

01:05:54.040 was the

01:05:54.800 black

01:05:55.080 president

01:05:55.460 which he

01:05:56.480 did

01:05:56.680 perfectly

01:05:57.400 he did

01:05:58.580 that

01:05:58.760 perfectly

01:05:59.200 all right

01:06:02.540 what about

01:06:05.040 John Fetterman

01:06:05.840 well I hear

01:06:07.600 the

01:06:08.100 I was going

01:06:11.440 to say

01:06:11.660 it's neck

01:06:12.060 and neck

01:06:12.420 but that

01:06:12.800 just seems

01:06:13.260 so wrong

01:06:14.800 just so wrong

01:06:16.360 Larry Elder

01:06:17.540 yeah there

01:06:18.120 are plenty

01:06:18.700 of black

01:06:19.640 leaders

01:06:20.580 that you

01:06:22.340 could look

01:06:22.720 to to say

01:06:23.360 hey if I

01:06:23.860 want to

01:06:24.180 have somebody

01:06:24.660 have an

01:06:25.200 opinion on

01:06:25.740 TV or

01:06:26.240 something

01:06:26.520 you know

01:06:27.680 you could

01:06:28.000 get plenty

01:06:28.480 of choices

01:06:29.020 but who

01:06:29.800 would be a

01:06:30.560 black leader

01:06:31.240 that the

01:06:33.040 black community

01:06:34.400 looks to as

01:06:35.260 a leader

01:06:35.640 sort of

01:06:36.260 in some

01:06:36.780 no you're

01:06:37.940 you're saying

01:06:38.320 stuff that

01:06:38.960 are clearly

01:06:39.380 just conservative

01:06:40.200 black people

01:06:40.960 right

01:06:42.020 Thomas Sowell

01:06:43.380 is awesome

01:06:44.240 in a lot

01:06:44.860 of ways

01:06:45.260 but he's

01:06:46.460 not a black 1.00

01:06:47.000 leader

01:06:47.300 he should

01:06:49.080 be

01:06:49.400 like in

01:06:50.580 my opinion

01:06:51.140 imagine how

01:06:52.800 well off

01:06:53.400 the black

01:06:54.500 world would

01:06:55.360 be

01:06:55.620 if they

01:06:56.620 looked at

01:06:57.340 Thomas Sowell

01:06:57.860 as their

01:06:58.380 guide

01:06:59.340 everything would

01:07:02.040 be fixed

01:07:02.560 honestly

01:07:03.680 Thomas Sowell

01:07:05.160 if he were

01:07:06.060 the leader

01:07:06.540 that they

01:07:07.080 decided to

01:07:07.980 rally around

01:07:08.580 you're one

01:07:10.400 generation away

01:07:11.320 from having

01:07:11.840 everything fixed

01:07:12.600 you couldn't

01:07:13.620 do it in

01:07:13.920 one generation

01:07:14.480 but you're

01:07:14.940 one generation

01:07:15.540 away

01:07:15.840 all right

01:07:19.000 I believe

01:07:22.480 we've done

01:07:22.900 everything we

01:07:23.320 need to do

01:07:23.740 and it's

01:07:24.120 an awesome

01:07:24.560 day

01:07:24.880 and how

01:07:26.440 about you

01:07:26.900 go forward

01:07:27.560 and just

01:07:28.820 have that

01:07:29.300 oh

01:07:30.380 Herschel

01:07:31.240 Walker

01:07:31.620 what are we

01:07:32.180 if you're

01:07:33.400 naming Herschel

01:07:33.940 Walker as

01:07:34.440 our national

01:07:35.140 leader

01:07:35.420 I don't

01:07:36.020 quite think

01:07:36.700 so

01:07:36.960 yeah

01:07:37.900 you know

01:07:38.480 there are

01:07:39.080 some famous

01:07:39.620 people like

01:07:40.180 Denzel and

01:07:41.280 Morgan Freeman

01:07:42.120 and stuff

01:07:42.780 but I don't

01:07:43.200 think anybody

01:07:43.800 Zuby

01:07:45.560 Zuby's not 0.80

01:07:47.740 American

01:07:48.160 I think

01:07:51.120 Zuby has

01:07:51.720 done such

01:07:52.320 a good

01:07:52.680 job

01:07:53.120 of

01:07:54.320 having a

01:07:56.300 popular

01:07:56.820 position

01:07:58.160 in the

01:07:58.500 world

01:07:58.660 people love

01:07:59.420 him so much

01:07:59.920 they forget

01:08:00.400 he's not

01:08:00.920 even American

01:08:01.480 I think

01:08:02.580 he could

01:08:03.260 get a lot

01:08:04.660 of votes

01:08:05.020 for president

01:08:05.600 of the

01:08:05.800 United States

01:08:06.360 but he's

01:08:07.520 not American 0.94

01:08:08.040 now

01:08:11.940 Zuby is

01:08:13.680 another great

01:08:15.060 example of

01:08:15.820 a talent

01:08:16.600 stack

01:08:17.140 situation

01:08:18.160 right

01:08:18.460 he's a

01:08:21.560 perfect

01:08:21.840 talent stack

01:08:22.520 example

01:08:22.980 there's just

01:08:23.840 a whole bunch

01:08:24.580 of things

01:08:25.120 that he does

01:08:25.940 really well

01:08:26.660 but if you're

01:08:27.840 trying to pick

01:08:28.220 the one thing

01:08:28.940 you say

01:08:29.400 I don't know

01:08:29.800 he just does

01:08:30.580 these whole bunch

01:08:31.240 of things

01:08:31.740 that work

01:08:32.740 together really

01:08:33.420 well

01:08:33.700 and then he

01:08:34.280 engineered them

01:08:35.620 to turn it

01:08:36.200 into something

01:08:36.700 awesome

01:08:37.040 yeah he's

01:08:39.360 impressive in

01:08:40.180 general

01:08:40.420 I would say

01:08:40.780 he's an

01:08:41.460 impressive

01:08:41.780 person

01:08:42.340 that would

01:08:43.040 be a true

01:08:43.380 statement

01:08:43.720 yeah Morgan

01:08:49.100 Freeman's

01:08:49.580 great but

01:08:50.100 he's not

01:08:50.600 really seen

01:08:51.080 as a

01:08:52.540 black leader

01:08:53.120 Lizzo

01:08:54.760 okay

01:08:55.240 Ice Cube

01:09:09.580 know many

01:09:09.840 of them

01:09:10.620 awesome

01:09:10.960 and whatever

01:09:11.340 they do

01:09:11.740 but they're

01:09:15.880 not anybody

01:09:19.120 George Floyd

01:09:20.780 I'll bet

01:09:23.400 that's

01:09:23.820 in a weird

01:09:25.100 way that's

01:09:25.540 true

01:09:25.740 George Floyd

01:09:26.740 would be the

01:09:27.240 most recognizable

01:09:28.180 unifying character

01:09:30.160 which is

01:09:31.120 scary

01:09:32.620 alright
