00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and congratulations on making it to the highlight of civilization.
00:00:07.700 Yeah, talk about the last, the lost city of Atlantis.
00:00:11.720 Well, I don't know if that's real or not, but whatever it is, it's not as awesome as this.
00:00:17.900 And you found this even if you can't find Atlantis, no matter how hard you look.
00:00:22.040 But if you'd like to take this experience up to the maximum potential, and I know that's the kind of person you are,
00:00:27.460 would you leave any money on the table? No, no, you pick up that money.
00:00:32.360 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chelsea stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:38.460 Fill it with your favorite liquid, I like, coffee.
00:00:42.220 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, it's the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:47.980 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's going to happen now.
00:00:52.200 And it's going to amaze you and make you feel better all day long. Go.
00:00:57.460 Yeah. Yeah, that's good.
00:01:04.620 All right, let me start with the funniest bad story of the day.
00:01:09.720 Now, I don't like to find humor in other people's misfortune.
00:01:15.320 No, that's not true.
00:01:16.400 I do like finding humor in other people's misfortune, but not if they know about it.
00:01:20.720 I think it's very impolite to laugh at people's misfortune, if they're likely to hear it.
00:01:27.940 But if nobody knows, sometimes other people's misfortune can be funny,
00:01:34.680 because at our base, we're very small and terrible people.
00:01:39.340 But don't let anybody know about that.
00:01:42.180 We'll try to keep up a good front, okay?
00:01:45.020 Okay.
00:01:45.780 But here's the story.
00:01:48.320 Do you recall that the Biden administration had an employee who was the first gender non-binary official?
00:01:55.820 An individual named Sam Brinton.
00:02:01.880 Now, Sam is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition
00:02:09.940 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy.
00:02:14.780 Now, poor Sam can't get any real work done,
00:02:17.760 because he spends all of his time telling people where he works.
00:02:22.480 He'll come to work and phone a ring and say,
00:02:25.840 Who is this?
00:02:27.100 And he'll say,
00:02:28.000 Hello, this is Sam Brinton, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition
00:02:34.500 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy.
00:02:38.280 Hello?
00:02:39.360 Hello?
00:02:40.260 And then the caller is hung up, because they just don't have that kind of time.
00:02:43.740 So that's the first problem.
00:02:45.760 First problem is, title, too long.
00:02:48.020 I don't know how he gets his work done.
00:02:49.340 Second problem, he is accused of stealing luggage from an airport carousel.
00:02:58.260 Now, you might ask yourself,
00:03:00.760 What kind of person who has a nice job steals luggage from a carousel?
00:03:06.240 What are you going to find in the luggage?
00:03:08.040 Get yourself a really sweet hair dryer?
00:03:10.760 I mean, he doesn't have any hair, actually.
00:03:14.020 But what would be the point of that?
00:03:15.880 Well, it turns out, there's an expensive kind of luggage, which I never heard about,
00:03:22.740 a Vera Bradley suitcase, which could be worth over $2,000.
00:03:29.280 Would you recognize a $2,000 suitcase if you saw it?
00:03:33.900 I don't feel like I would even recognize an expensive suitcase.
00:03:38.000 They kind of look kind of similar to me.
00:03:42.180 But, apparently, Sam, according to allegations, we only know the allegations,
00:03:48.060 stole that suitcase, and not only is they, I think Sam is a they,
00:03:57.180 not only is they on video, video security taking the bag,
00:04:03.080 but also on video using the bag on a few different occasions.
00:04:08.260 So there doesn't seem to be too much confusion about what's really going on.
00:04:13.340 Actually stole the bag.
00:04:15.280 Now, here's the punchline.
00:04:17.540 The punchline doesn't require any addition.
00:04:21.920 All right?
00:04:22.400 I'm just going to tell you the story,
00:04:24.680 the actual details,
00:04:26.900 as we know them,
00:04:29.020 and that's the punchline.
00:04:30.100 All right?
00:04:30.540 I'm just going to put two facts together.
00:04:34.520 The person who is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition
00:04:40.220 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy
00:04:43.220 didn't know that the airport has security cameras.
00:04:50.920 Didn't see that coming.
00:04:53.400 Probably thought to they-self,
00:04:56.700 well, they are never going to find they.
00:05:00.660 They will take this bag,
00:05:02.240 and they will never know who took it.
00:05:04.480 They will be walking around with this brand new $2,300 bag,
00:05:08.760 and wah, wah, wah on everybody who thinks they can stop me.
00:05:14.060 But it turns out
00:05:15.240 that the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition
00:05:20.560 at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy
00:05:22.940 never saw this coming.
00:05:25.220 The whole video security game
00:05:28.680 didn't see it coming.
00:05:31.460 So, that's the punchline.
00:05:33.920 I got nothing else to add to that.
00:05:36.600 Didn't see it coming.
00:05:38.740 All right.
00:05:39.560 I'm glad we've got people who can not see five minutes in the future
00:05:43.600 in charge of our nuclear assets.
00:05:46.500 So, have you noticed that ESG is dying right on schedule?
00:05:56.000 Does it seem unusual to you that I declare that I would kill it
00:05:59.360 before the end of the year?
00:06:00.380 And it looks like it's limping into December pretty wounded.
00:06:06.740 Now, I've asked this before,
00:06:10.360 but I'm going to lead into something here.
00:06:12.620 Does it feel like I sometimes control the simulation?
00:06:16.620 Is there anybody here who is actually, like, literally thinking,
00:06:19.720 are you actually controlling the simulation?
00:06:21.540 Does it ever feel like that?
00:06:27.560 All right.
00:06:28.120 Some yeses, some noes.
00:06:29.400 Mostly noes.
00:06:30.280 Because you're very rational.
00:06:32.580 I like to think that I've attracted a hyper-rational audience.
00:06:37.200 Or at least you are now.
00:06:38.880 So, the rational people should say,
00:06:40.840 no, it doesn't look like that.
00:06:42.540 It's anecdotal.
00:06:44.540 And it's coincidence.
00:06:45.960 And I'm also good at identifying a parade and getting in front of it.
00:06:49.460 So, you should know that about me.
00:06:52.920 Sometimes it's not all about prediction.
00:06:55.500 Sometimes it's saying, I think I see a parade.
00:06:58.300 What happens if I get in front of it?
00:07:00.740 And then it looks like you predicted it.
00:07:02.960 But sometimes I also wonder myself.
00:07:05.820 I have a very...
00:07:07.340 If you knew my actual life,
00:07:10.340 you know the public parts,
00:07:12.160 but if you knew my whole life,
00:07:14.080 you would have to say to yourself,
00:07:15.860 what's going on here?
00:07:17.320 It looks like something weird is happening in my life
00:07:20.460 that I can't explain.
00:07:22.160 So, let me tell you something
00:07:23.480 that's the weirdest story
00:07:24.740 you might hear this week.
00:07:27.140 And it's a story of weird stories.
00:07:29.900 Everything I tell you next,
00:07:31.580 I swear to God, is true.
00:07:34.500 Now, when I say it's true,
00:07:35.860 I mean it's my impression of what happened.
00:07:38.180 It's my experience.
00:07:39.720 The actual underlying truth,
00:07:41.900 I don't know.
00:07:42.760 I don't know what the underlying truth is,
00:07:44.780 but I can tell you my experience.
00:07:46.000 So, I'm not lying about my experience
00:07:48.460 or my memory of it, right?
00:07:50.220 That part I promise you.
00:07:54.500 About, was it two days ago,
00:07:57.260 I had this overwhelming feeling
00:07:59.920 that I was being watched.
00:08:03.580 Now, I've had it before.
00:08:04.580 You've had that, right?
00:08:05.380 Do you ever have that feeling
00:08:06.180 you're being watched,
00:08:07.060 even when you're alone?
00:08:08.440 So, I was alone at home,
00:08:10.140 and I thought,
00:08:11.100 I'm being watched.
00:08:12.200 And I had an overwhelming feeling,
00:08:15.860 and again,
00:08:16.580 you should not put any stock in this, right?
00:08:18.660 It's just feelings.
00:08:20.320 Just a feeling.
00:08:22.160 That the creators of the simulation
00:08:24.460 were online
00:08:27.460 and looking at me at that moment,
00:08:29.260 like I was being observed.
00:08:31.320 Now, I couldn't,
00:08:32.320 I didn't have a feeling
00:08:33.080 if I was being observed
00:08:34.220 by one entity or multiple,
00:08:36.380 but I had the feeling
00:08:38.040 that whoever was observing
00:08:39.660 or whatever
00:08:40.440 was part of a population,
00:08:43.780 not a single entity.
00:08:46.500 Now, the questions
00:08:47.700 that you're going to ask,
00:08:48.680 let me anticipate your questions.
00:08:50.740 Scott, were you on drugs?
00:08:53.680 Of course I was.
00:08:54.660 It was after 9 a.m.
00:08:56.220 But I'm on drugs every day
00:08:57.760 in marijuana.
00:09:00.160 And I know what marijuana feels like.
00:09:04.160 Can you accept?
00:09:07.060 That if you get high every day
00:09:09.140 for 30 years or so,
00:09:11.400 or more,
00:09:12.600 you know what it feels like.
00:09:15.440 There are no surprises, right?
00:09:17.040 It doesn't sometimes
00:09:18.180 feel like mushrooms, right?
00:09:20.420 It doesn't sometimes
00:09:21.780 make me hallucinate.
00:09:23.360 It's always the same.
00:09:25.160 And it doesn't,
00:09:25.880 and if you do it every day,
00:09:27.780 it doesn't give you
00:09:28.740 any kind of an experience
00:09:29.840 like somebody doing it,
00:09:31.040 you know, once in a while.
00:09:32.520 The people who do it once in a while
00:09:33.840 have this profound,
00:09:34.760 you know,
00:09:35.700 you better not drive your car,
00:09:37.780 you know,
00:09:38.020 don't use any power tools
00:09:40.460 kind of situation.
00:09:41.640 If you do it every day,
00:09:43.060 it just makes you feel normal.
00:09:46.260 You know,
00:09:46.520 there are very few things
00:09:47.720 I couldn't do
00:09:48.440 completely high, right?
00:09:51.020 I could play a sport,
00:09:52.900 play an instrument,
00:09:54.160 about the same,
00:09:54.840 not much difference.
00:09:56.240 But that's the only people
00:09:57.080 who use it every day.
00:09:58.440 Ordinary people 0.98
00:09:59.040 would have a profound effect,
00:10:00.200 so you can't compare them
00:10:01.280 to the so-called
00:10:02.640 chronic users.
00:10:03.620 All right,
00:10:03.820 so that's the first question.
00:10:06.540 So,
00:10:07.160 I embarked on a
00:10:08.540 out loud
00:10:09.620 conversation
00:10:11.340 with whoever it was,
00:10:13.320 and I swear to God
00:10:14.360 I could feel
00:10:14.860 I was getting answers.
00:10:16.580 Now,
00:10:16.900 this must be
00:10:17.380 what people feel
00:10:18.200 when they believe
00:10:19.060 they're having a conversation
00:10:20.140 with a God.
00:10:21.560 I imagine it feels
00:10:22.620 the same way.
00:10:23.580 And I don't imagine
00:10:24.580 that my experience of it
00:10:26.040 was so outside
00:10:27.320 what people have felt
00:10:29.180 for millennium, right?
00:10:32.120 Humans have always felt,
00:10:33.620 am I talking to God?
00:10:35.480 Or, you know,
00:10:35.940 are the gods
00:10:36.760 talking to me right now?
00:10:37.760 It's a very common experience.
00:10:39.280 So remember,
00:10:40.240 I'm not trying to claim
00:10:41.520 that I understand
00:10:43.340 the experience
00:10:44.020 I'm explaining.
00:10:45.160 I'm just saying
00:10:45.900 it happened.
00:10:46.820 And then you can put
00:10:47.500 your own interpretation
00:10:48.260 on it.
00:10:49.360 And so I had
00:10:50.200 this long conversation
00:10:51.140 about, you know,
00:10:52.180 what this was all about.
00:10:55.580 And then,
00:10:56.260 because I didn't believe
00:10:57.880 my own experience
00:10:58.920 and I didn't feel
00:11:00.840 I was necessarily
00:11:01.620 talking to anybody
00:11:02.800 except my own imagination,
00:11:04.400 I thought,
00:11:05.180 well, maybe I'll test it.
00:11:07.200 So I said,
00:11:07.920 if this,
00:11:08.960 I said out loud,
00:11:10.800 if I'm in a simulation
00:11:11.960 and I have determined
00:11:13.840 and I've discovered
00:11:14.760 it's a simulation,
00:11:16.160 do I get powers
00:11:17.220 like Neo
00:11:17.880 from the Matrix?
00:11:19.540 Like if you know
00:11:20.280 you're in a simulation,
00:11:21.200 do you get power over it?
00:11:24.200 In other words,
00:11:24.940 does that give me
00:11:25.800 the ability
00:11:26.180 the ability
00:11:26.200 to change things
00:11:27.080 in real time
00:11:27.780 and actually change
00:11:28.540 my reality
00:11:29.460 because I now
00:11:30.800 understand it
00:11:31.580 and I can just
00:11:32.160 change it?
00:11:34.280 And so I thought,
00:11:35.360 well, it's worth
00:11:35.820 the test.
00:11:36.980 So I said,
00:11:37.740 I'll give you a,
00:11:38.660 I said out loud
00:11:39.560 to the creators
00:11:41.020 of the simulation,
00:11:42.320 I said,
00:11:42.860 all right,
00:11:43.020 here's a test.
00:11:44.300 If you can make
00:11:44.880 this happen,
00:11:46.180 then I'll believe
00:11:46.860 I'm in a simulation.
00:11:47.820 Otherwise,
00:11:48.300 just my imagination.
00:11:50.940 Although it could
00:11:51.680 be my imagination
00:11:52.420 either way.
00:11:53.180 And so I said,
00:11:54.900 all right,
00:11:55.400 my biggest problem
00:11:56.460 at the moment,
00:11:57.320 two days ago,
00:11:58.480 was that my knees
00:12:00.160 had been hurting me
00:12:01.060 for well over a month,
00:12:03.960 maybe two months.
00:12:05.140 And they hurt so much
00:12:06.540 that although I was
00:12:08.200 still active
00:12:08.740 and still going
00:12:09.340 to the gym,
00:12:10.560 it was sort of hard
00:12:11.600 to walk upstairs
00:12:12.480 like once I was
00:12:14.580 back from the gym.
00:12:15.260 And I was really
00:12:17.060 starting to worry
00:12:17.840 if my bad knees
00:12:19.580 were going to be
00:12:20.220 forever.
00:12:21.540 Because, you know,
00:12:22.020 sometimes you have
00:12:22.700 temporary knee problems,
00:12:24.000 sometimes it's forever.
00:12:25.340 And I thought,
00:12:25.940 if it's forever,
00:12:27.400 like I'm starting
00:12:28.300 this downward spiral
00:12:30.000 where I'm just going
00:12:31.940 to be, you know,
00:12:33.720 unable to exercise
00:12:34.660 for the rest of my life.
00:12:36.560 Yeah, I thought,
00:12:37.200 well, it feels like
00:12:37.780 maybe it's bone on bone
00:12:38.780 or something.
00:12:39.260 I didn't know
00:12:39.560 what it was.
00:12:40.520 So I said,
00:12:41.100 all right,
00:12:41.400 the simulation,
00:12:42.560 if you can make
00:12:43.340 my biggest problem
00:12:44.320 go away, 0.98
00:12:45.200 my knee pain,
00:12:47.020 that I will accept
00:12:48.220 that I'm not only
00:12:49.280 in the simulation,
00:12:50.620 but that I have
00:12:51.280 some control over it.
00:12:53.720 So two months
00:12:55.280 of solid knee pain,
00:12:56.860 never not knee pain.
00:12:58.640 It wasn't good at night,
00:13:00.520 it wasn't good
00:13:00.940 in the morning,
00:13:01.840 it was never good.
00:13:04.120 It went away
00:13:05.140 as I was talking.
00:13:09.460 It didn't come back.
00:13:11.860 It's still not back.
00:13:14.140 Two days,
00:13:15.120 and my knees
00:13:15.540 have no pain whatsoever.
00:13:18.760 Now,
00:13:19.460 I don't have
00:13:20.840 any explanation
00:13:21.840 for that.
00:13:22.900 If you're saying
00:13:23.560 to me,
00:13:23.900 Scott,
00:13:24.180 that's like
00:13:24.560 a perfect placebo
00:13:25.560 situation,
00:13:26.580 because I talked
00:13:27.480 myself into it,
00:13:28.460 and I had
00:13:29.340 a profound experience
00:13:30.700 of something
00:13:32.000 that probably
00:13:32.560 wasn't real,
00:13:33.820 right?
00:13:34.020 I probably wasn't
00:13:34.840 talking to anybody.
00:13:36.200 But because it
00:13:36.880 was so profound,
00:13:39.040 hypnosis
00:13:39.520 and placebo
00:13:40.700 and everything
00:13:41.860 I know about
00:13:42.460 the mind
00:13:42.980 suggests
00:13:43.620 that I may
00:13:44.600 have erased
00:13:45.040 my pain.
00:13:46.720 You know,
00:13:46.880 maybe I have
00:13:47.340 the same inflammation
00:13:48.580 I had before,
00:13:49.660 but I may have
00:13:50.300 just turned it off.
00:13:51.780 Now,
00:13:52.180 let me tell you
00:13:52.580 something else
00:13:53.140 that's related
00:13:54.240 to this.
00:13:55.960 Sometime last year,
00:13:57.240 I was at an event
00:13:58.940 at a friend's house,
00:14:00.140 house, and it was
00:14:01.320 an individual
00:14:01.820 who was doing
00:14:03.360 some work
00:14:03.900 in the backyard,
00:14:04.880 and it was
00:14:05.840 super cold.
00:14:07.300 It was like
00:14:07.660 a really cold
00:14:08.360 night.
00:14:09.240 And the individual
00:14:10.120 was a young man,
00:14:10.980 and he wasn't
00:14:11.360 wearing a jacket.
00:14:12.740 He just had
00:14:13.160 a t-shirt on.
00:14:14.240 And I was
00:14:14.720 wearing a full
00:14:15.560 winter jacket,
00:14:16.880 and I was
00:14:17.180 pretty cold.
00:14:18.780 And I said to him,
00:14:20.300 like,
00:14:20.560 how the hell?
00:14:21.840 How are you
00:14:22.260 putting up
00:14:22.600 with this cold?
00:14:23.160 And he told me
00:14:24.160 the following story.
00:14:26.120 He said that
00:14:26.940 he had an experience
00:14:28.660 with some psychedelics,
00:14:30.400 I think it was
00:14:31.060 mushrooms,
00:14:32.400 and that during
00:14:34.420 that experience,
00:14:35.720 he had the
00:14:36.340 realization that
00:14:37.380 his sensation
00:14:38.360 of cold
00:14:39.000 was a manufactured
00:14:40.640 feeling,
00:14:42.300 and that he
00:14:42.820 wasn't in any
00:14:43.520 real danger
00:14:44.180 at that temperature.
00:14:45.320 Temperature was
00:14:46.360 maybe 50,
00:14:49.320 right?
00:14:49.800 So you can't
00:14:50.500 stay outside
00:14:51.120 at 50 for
00:14:52.680 too long
00:14:53.220 without being
00:14:53.700 uncomfortable.
00:14:54.600 But it's not
00:14:55.180 really dangerous,
00:14:55.900 is it?
00:14:56.940 I don't think
00:14:57.540 it's dangerous.
00:14:59.160 I mean,
00:14:59.460 if you can handle
00:15:00.160 being outside
00:15:00.900 at 50 degrees
00:15:01.960 with your t-shirt,
00:15:03.420 it's not going
00:15:04.120 to kill you. 0.97
00:15:04.660 It might even
00:15:05.040 be good for you,
00:15:05.720 right?
00:15:06.240 It might actually
00:15:06.760 be good for you.
00:15:09.040 So he had
00:15:09.740 actually separated
00:15:10.640 cold from a feeling.
00:15:15.140 He just didn't
00:15:15.840 feel cold anymore.
00:15:16.880 And the reason
00:15:17.460 he didn't feel it
00:15:18.180 is because he
00:15:18.600 chose not to.
00:15:19.920 He simply
00:15:20.580 turned off that,
00:15:21.760 he just turned
00:15:22.420 off that feeling
00:15:23.340 because he
00:15:23.740 realized it was
00:15:24.280 fake.
00:15:25.240 It was a
00:15:25.960 false signal.
00:15:28.760 And so the
00:15:29.260 other day,
00:15:30.500 I was outdoors
00:15:31.420 without a jacket,
00:15:32.960 you know,
00:15:33.260 temporarily just
00:15:34.160 to check my
00:15:34.900 mailbox.
00:15:36.080 And I thought,
00:15:37.060 wow, I'm going
00:15:37.460 to be out here
00:15:37.960 way longer than
00:15:38.780 I want to be.
00:15:39.360 And I was super
00:15:40.540 cold.
00:15:41.760 And the cold
00:15:42.380 was starting to
00:15:42.980 hurt.
00:15:44.200 And I said,
00:15:44.760 what would
00:15:45.560 happen if I
00:15:46.120 reframed the
00:15:46.900 cold?
00:15:48.480 So I'll give it
00:15:49.180 a try.
00:15:49.460 I keep hearing
00:15:51.240 about these
00:15:51.700 people who do
00:15:52.220 the cryonic
00:15:54.100 chambers where
00:15:55.040 it's like super
00:15:55.980 cold and they
00:15:57.260 stay in there
00:15:57.760 for a few
00:15:58.180 minutes and
00:15:58.700 I'm surprised
00:16:00.120 they don't
00:16:00.460 die.
00:16:01.740 And I thought,
00:16:02.300 wait, if Joe
00:16:03.500 Rogan and those
00:16:04.180 people can get
00:16:05.780 in this super
00:16:07.320 cold thing and
00:16:08.740 it's actually good
00:16:09.380 for them,
00:16:10.720 wouldn't it
00:16:11.220 probably be good
00:16:12.380 for me to
00:16:13.560 simply experience
00:16:14.600 something that's
00:16:15.680 uncomfortably cold
00:16:16.760 for a few
00:16:17.320 minutes?
00:16:17.680 And as soon
00:16:19.360 as I reframed
00:16:20.280 what I was
00:16:20.760 doing to a
00:16:21.740 health-related
00:16:22.740 process, I
00:16:24.580 said to myself,
00:16:25.220 I'll bet this is
00:16:25.780 actually good for
00:16:26.460 me to be like
00:16:27.960 super cold.
00:16:29.420 I know you're
00:16:30.220 laughing.
00:16:31.400 Let me just
00:16:33.080 pause.
00:16:34.840 I live in
00:16:35.660 California.
00:16:37.280 I used to live
00:16:38.300 in upstate New
00:16:39.020 York.
00:16:40.200 If you adjust
00:16:41.180 this for what
00:16:41.840 you're used to,
00:16:43.120 when I say I
00:16:43.900 went outside and
00:16:44.620 it was 50
00:16:45.160 degrees and I
00:16:45.820 was super
00:16:46.220 uncomfortable,
00:16:46.680 comfortable, if
00:16:48.040 I had been in
00:16:48.680 New York, that
00:16:50.140 would have
00:16:50.420 been roughly
00:16:53.460 zero, roughly
00:16:54.860 zero, right?
00:16:57.380 So in New
00:16:58.200 York, if you
00:16:59.900 live in New
00:17:00.400 York and you
00:17:00.920 live in the
00:17:01.360 cold, you
00:17:02.260 could go
00:17:02.580 outside in
00:17:03.180 your t-shirt at
00:17:04.820 roughly zero
00:17:05.620 degrees and
00:17:07.040 sort of do
00:17:07.560 some stuff, you
00:17:08.960 know, you
00:17:09.240 wouldn't like it
00:17:10.040 that much, do
00:17:10.720 some stuff and
00:17:11.280 then come inside
00:17:11.860 and you wouldn't
00:17:12.180 be damaged,
00:17:13.040 right?
00:17:13.520 Wouldn't you
00:17:13.820 agree?
00:17:14.000 So when
00:17:15.240 you're making
00:17:16.100 fun of me for
00:17:16.840 being a huge
00:17:17.540 pussy because I 1.00
00:17:18.780 couldn't handle
00:17:19.220 50 degrees, just
00:17:20.960 know that when I
00:17:21.780 grew up in New
00:17:22.280 York, I could
00:17:23.500 have done zero.
00:17:24.780 It's just what
00:17:25.540 you're used to,
00:17:26.360 right?
00:17:27.880 So the moment I
00:17:28.960 reframed my
00:17:29.740 experience as a
00:17:30.980 voluntary health
00:17:33.220 related process, I
00:17:35.220 was thinking,
00:17:35.680 God, I think this
00:17:36.480 cold is making me
00:17:37.300 healthier.
00:17:38.560 All the pain
00:17:39.320 went away.
00:17:39.760 all of the
00:17:42.140 discomfort, it
00:17:43.600 was pretty, pretty
00:17:44.380 big discomfort, of
00:17:45.780 feeling cold
00:17:46.720 immediately left my
00:17:48.900 body because I
00:17:50.280 told myself, if I
00:17:52.400 were Joe Rogan, I'd
00:17:53.360 be paying for this
00:17:54.080 experience.
00:17:55.120 This is probably
00:17:55.640 really good for me.
00:17:57.640 Does anybody have a
00:17:58.680 problem with germs?
00:18:00.360 Anybody have, is
00:18:01.040 anybody a germ-phobe?
00:18:03.280 Try this reframe.
00:18:06.540 The germs are good
00:18:07.520 for you.
00:18:08.900 That's it.
00:18:10.660 Which is true.
00:18:11.960 Because you need to
00:18:12.660 have some dogs and
00:18:13.580 some animals and a
00:18:15.160 little bit of filth
00:18:15.920 around you or else
00:18:16.820 you're not going to
00:18:17.180 be strong.
00:18:18.800 So I do a lot of
00:18:20.020 public stuff.
00:18:21.320 Shake hands with a 1.00
00:18:22.040 lot of strangers if I
00:18:23.260 do a public event.
00:18:24.420 I'm not doing any at
00:18:25.400 the moment.
00:18:26.760 And as soon as I'm
00:18:27.920 done, I go wash my
00:18:29.440 hands right after,
00:18:30.340 right?
00:18:30.620 Because you've got
00:18:31.020 like a hundred
00:18:31.840 people's germs on
00:18:33.100 you.
00:18:33.920 But I used to think,
00:18:35.120 oh my God, my God,
00:18:36.160 like I'd be running to
00:18:37.100 the bathroom to wash my
00:18:38.020 hands like a surgeon.
00:18:38.900 Don't touch your
00:18:39.860 face.
00:18:40.400 Don't touch your
00:18:40.980 face.
00:18:41.880 But since I've
00:18:42.700 reframed it, that germs
00:18:44.900 are good for me, I
00:18:46.160 still wash my hands.
00:18:47.820 But when I'm walking to
00:18:49.480 the bathroom, I'm
00:18:50.320 thinking, I wonder if I'm
00:18:51.580 getting stronger.
00:18:53.260 I wonder if my immune
00:18:54.700 system is saying, thank
00:18:55.720 you, I needed a little
00:18:57.500 stress test.
00:18:58.780 That's just what I
00:18:59.540 needed today.
00:19:00.480 So I've reframed even
00:19:02.060 germs at the low end,
00:19:04.000 right?
00:19:04.200 Nothing disgusting.
00:19:05.780 But germs, just sort of
00:19:06.860 the daily germs of life,
00:19:10.100 I've just defined them as
00:19:11.400 part of what makes my
00:19:13.060 immune system stronger.
00:19:16.820 I wasn't planning to talk
00:19:18.160 about any of this today.
00:19:19.160 Was any of this fun?
00:19:20.700 I don't know.
00:19:21.280 I'll talk about the news
00:19:22.260 next.
00:19:22.700 There's plenty of cool
00:19:23.580 news.
00:19:25.120 I just thought it'd be
00:19:26.460 interesting because it's
00:19:27.380 something you can try at
00:19:28.380 home.
00:19:28.620 The next time you're
00:19:30.160 super cold, as long as
00:19:31.760 it's temporary, just try
00:19:33.540 the reframe and say, I'm
00:19:35.040 super cold, exactly what's
00:19:37.280 good for me.
00:19:38.680 I'm so lucky that this is
00:19:40.420 super cold for a few
00:19:41.480 minutes because this is
00:19:43.460 really going to boost my
00:19:44.300 natural immunity.
00:19:46.040 Just try it.
00:19:46.980 Let me know how it works.
00:19:49.060 All right.
00:19:49.860 I got a new mascot, Phil
00:19:51.620 Bump, who writes for the
00:19:52.760 Washington Post.
00:19:54.300 Phil likes to come into my
00:19:56.020 tweets and say bad things
00:19:57.840 about me.
00:19:58.620 Or to mock me.
00:20:00.660 I don't know why.
00:20:01.840 It may be because I've
00:20:03.260 mocked him for his writing
00:20:04.320 in the past.
00:20:05.620 It feels personal.
00:20:07.540 But I've promoted him from
00:20:10.740 mere critic to mascot.
00:20:12.820 That's my highest
00:20:13.920 designation.
00:20:15.340 So now he's with Keith
00:20:16.840 Olbermann.
00:20:18.640 And it's a small group.
00:20:20.920 I just have a few mascots.
00:20:22.360 But Phil's part of the
00:20:23.520 group now.
00:20:24.340 So congratulations, Phil,
00:20:25.540 for entering the Scott
00:20:28.100 Mascot
00:20:29.300 Committee.
00:20:32.620 Well, you make fun of me
00:20:34.420 for living in California,
00:20:35.880 but here are a few things
00:20:37.340 you didn't know.
00:20:39.040 In the past month,
00:20:41.780 whoops,
00:20:42.240 got a little problem here.
00:20:43.660 In the past month,
00:20:44.840 in California where I live,
00:20:47.540 almost every day,
00:20:49.400 the weather has been so good,
00:20:51.060 at least during the daytime,
00:20:53.900 that it feels like room
00:20:56.660 temperature.
00:20:58.080 I walk outside,
00:20:59.320 and the colors are perfect.
00:21:01.520 I've had a month of room
00:21:03.880 temperature,
00:21:05.100 sunny,
00:21:06.200 perfect weather.
00:21:07.820 It's amazing.
00:21:09.580 And wow.
00:21:10.340 So that's good.
00:21:13.020 But also,
00:21:13.700 California has made
00:21:15.080 jaywalking legal.
00:21:17.480 So as a,
00:21:18.940 you know,
00:21:19.140 it was already legal to,
00:21:21.940 you know,
00:21:22.120 the pedestrian always 0.98
00:21:24.020 had the right-of-way.
00:21:25.540 So that's been true
00:21:26.440 for a long time
00:21:27.060 in California.
00:21:28.040 But you have to be standing
00:21:29.040 at an obvious crossing point.
00:21:31.620 Now the law is extended
00:21:33.320 to you can basically
00:21:35.040 cross the road
00:21:35.760 anywhere you want,
00:21:36.620 and it's not illegal.
00:21:38.740 And the motorists
00:21:39.760 are going to need to stop.
00:21:42.240 Or they're just going to not,
00:21:43.680 I mean,
00:21:44.180 obviously they don't want
00:21:45.020 to kill you, 0.98
00:21:45.520 so they're going to stop anyway.
00:21:46.900 Now it doesn't seem like
00:21:48.200 necessarily
00:21:50.160 the obvious best idea
00:21:51.940 in the world.
00:21:53.480 But we'll find out.
00:21:55.120 Maybe we'll find out.
00:21:56.020 Maybe it's cool.
00:21:57.240 So,
00:21:58.700 here's what I can do
00:21:59.700 in California
00:22:00.340 that you can't do
00:22:01.220 in Florida
00:22:02.400 and Texas.
00:22:05.120 You can't jaywalk
00:22:06.420 to go buy some weed.
00:22:09.000 Yeah.
00:22:09.840 I mean,
00:22:10.280 in Florida
00:22:10.800 you'd have to have
00:22:11.440 a medical card,
00:22:12.680 I guess.
00:22:13.600 But no,
00:22:14.280 in California
00:22:14.980 I can jaywalk
00:22:16.540 anywhere I want.
00:22:17.600 I can jaywalk
00:22:18.220 to get an abortion. 1.00
00:22:19.820 I can jaywalk
00:22:20.820 to get me some weed.
00:22:22.480 I got a lot of freedom
00:22:23.320 in this state.
00:22:24.600 Got a lot of taxes.
00:22:25.900 I'm not sure
00:22:26.340 the taxes are
00:22:27.100 worth all the freedom,
00:22:28.760 but I don't know.
00:22:30.380 I don't think
00:22:30.740 I could move somewhere
00:22:31.420 where I had less freedom.
00:22:32.760 And by the way,
00:22:35.920 that's mostly
00:22:36.560 a psychological thing.
00:22:38.580 But I can tell you
00:22:39.320 that I feel more free
00:22:40.640 in California
00:22:42.140 than I would feel
00:22:44.040 in Texas or Florida.
00:22:46.100 I would just feel
00:22:47.040 less free.
00:22:49.040 Now,
00:22:49.420 I think that Florida
00:22:50.200 and Texas
00:22:50.680 have a lot going for them.
00:22:52.320 They're well-managed states.
00:22:54.600 And so I,
00:22:55.080 you know,
00:22:55.400 mostly have
00:22:56.100 only positive things
00:22:57.420 to say about both places.
00:22:59.240 But it is true 0.94
00:23:00.060 I feel more free here.
00:23:04.040 So,
00:23:04.620 for whatever that's worth.
00:23:09.520 I saw another mention
00:23:11.080 that there's a heroin shortage,
00:23:13.120 which means that people
00:23:14.080 are using fentanyl
00:23:15.760 instead of heroin.
00:23:17.520 But I would like to,
00:23:19.280 I have some inside information
00:23:21.300 on that.
00:23:22.080 I've got sources.
00:23:23.560 My sources tell me
00:23:24.540 it's not so much
00:23:25.280 that you can't get heroin,
00:23:27.240 it's that nobody
00:23:27.920 wants to buy it.
00:23:30.060 Nobody wants to buy the heroin.
00:23:33.100 Do you know why?
00:23:34.520 Because fentanyl
00:23:35.340 is easily available
00:23:36.420 and it's a better nod.
00:23:38.920 That's,
00:23:39.360 that's tweaker talk
00:23:40.820 and that's addict talk.
00:23:43.100 The,
00:23:43.320 the quote,
00:23:44.540 better nod
00:23:45.260 is the,
00:23:46.740 you know,
00:23:47.020 sort of being
00:23:47.600 in and out of sleep.
00:23:48.760 You're nodding out
00:23:49.480 and coming back.
00:23:50.480 So that's,
00:23:51.080 that's what the addicts
00:23:52.260 are doing,
00:23:52.680 the ones who are shooting up.
00:23:53.980 Now,
00:23:54.380 here's the thing
00:23:54.860 you need to know
00:23:55.560 because if you don't
00:23:57.000 understand fentanyl,
00:23:58.280 you,
00:23:59.460 you can't be part
00:24:00.400 of the productive
00:24:01.120 persuasion
00:24:03.220 to maybe
00:24:04.200 make things better.
00:24:05.480 So the thing
00:24:06.180 you need to know
00:24:06.740 is that the people
00:24:07.500 who know they're
00:24:08.160 buying fentanyl
00:24:09.060 and putting it
00:24:10.480 in their arms,
00:24:11.860 they're sort of like,
00:24:14.520 say,
00:24:15.400 I would say
00:24:15.740 they're like
00:24:16.380 scuba divers.
00:24:18.320 They're people
00:24:18.980 who know they're
00:24:19.500 doing an inherently
00:24:20.360 dangerous thing
00:24:21.360 so they take
00:24:22.660 extra precautions
00:24:23.600 because they're not
00:24:24.700 actually trying to die.
00:24:26.120 They're trying to stay alive.
00:24:27.300 They just want a good high.
00:24:29.180 So it might be,
00:24:32.200 wait for it,
00:24:35.340 it might be fewer
00:24:36.640 overdoses
00:24:37.200 because they're doing
00:24:38.260 fentanyl
00:24:38.840 instead of heroin.
00:24:40.560 And I'm going to
00:24:41.240 make that prediction
00:24:42.000 because it's opposite
00:24:42.920 of what everyone
00:24:43.520 else is predicting.
00:24:45.540 So normies,
00:24:46.740 the people who are
00:24:47.320 not too close
00:24:48.680 to this problem,
00:24:49.920 are going to say,
00:24:50.760 wait,
00:24:51.260 if you stop using
00:24:52.580 heroin,
00:24:53.080 which is pretty bad,
00:24:54.760 and you start using
00:24:55.540 fentanyl,
00:24:56.040 which is way worse,
00:24:57.300 you should have
00:24:58.220 more overdoses,
00:24:59.120 right?
00:25:00.580 I'm going to predict
00:25:01.460 it goes the other way.
00:25:03.340 I'm going to predict
00:25:04.060 that the scuba divers
00:25:05.240 know that they need
00:25:06.140 to make sure
00:25:07.080 that they've got
00:25:07.600 air in their tank.
00:25:09.300 And it's the people
00:25:10.220 who don't know
00:25:11.180 they're getting
00:25:11.560 the fentanyl,
00:25:12.620 the teenagers,
00:25:13.640 who are buying it
00:25:14.760 in pill form
00:25:15.520 and they don't know
00:25:16.100 what they're getting.
00:25:17.200 They're the ones
00:25:17.860 overdosing
00:25:18.380 because they can't
00:25:19.740 take the obvious
00:25:21.380 precautions
00:25:21.960 because they don't
00:25:22.640 know there's a danger.
00:25:23.400 It's a hidden danger.
00:25:26.720 So that's my prediction.
00:25:28.100 My prediction is
00:25:28.740 overdose deaths
00:25:30.100 from people
00:25:31.600 who shoot
00:25:32.220 might go down
00:25:33.760 while overall
00:25:35.280 overdoses
00:25:36.120 might go up.
00:25:37.680 So it's a
00:25:38.600 bifurcated situation.
00:25:40.400 Two different risk
00:25:41.280 patterns
00:25:42.280 and you have to
00:25:42.760 know that.
00:25:44.160 And I saw it.
00:25:44.740 There are people
00:25:45.140 who know what
00:25:45.560 they're talking about
00:25:46.160 who are agreeing
00:25:46.720 with me in the comments.
00:25:48.140 So it's not crazy.
00:25:52.860 All right.
00:25:56.640 Yeah, one mother 0.61
00:25:58.420 of all bonds
00:25:59.140 dropped on a fentanyl
00:26:00.740 place would take
00:26:01.680 care of that,
00:26:02.220 wouldn't it?
00:26:03.600 Oh, this is weird.
00:26:06.180 I've got two
00:26:06.760 different documents
00:26:07.600 that are printed
00:26:08.020 on the same document.
00:26:09.260 So I'm trying to read.
00:26:11.460 Apparently there was
00:26:12.220 a piece of paper
00:26:13.060 that I used twice here.
00:26:15.120 Huh.
00:26:18.140 Oh my God,
00:26:20.740 this is going to be
00:26:21.460 a challenge
00:26:21.860 because all of my notes
00:26:23.080 are something
00:26:24.460 written over
00:26:25.040 something else.
00:26:27.180 I have a formula
00:26:28.840 for making
00:26:29.820 all poor kids
00:26:31.400 successful.
00:26:32.220 I tweeted this
00:26:32.820 a couple years ago
00:26:33.640 but it surfaced again.
00:26:36.160 Imagine if your
00:26:37.420 school
00:26:38.480 taught you
00:26:39.720 what I was taught
00:26:41.100 as a kid.
00:26:42.480 So what I'm going
00:26:43.480 to tell you now
00:26:44.180 is basically
00:26:44.980 how I was raised.
00:26:46.720 I was raised
00:26:47.360 to believe
00:26:47.800 that the following
00:26:48.560 steps
00:26:49.060 would make you
00:26:50.200 successful.
00:26:51.620 And I knew that
00:26:52.360 since kindergarten
00:26:54.520 I think.
00:26:55.460 I think as early
00:26:56.220 as kindergarten
00:26:56.880 my mother was
00:26:57.600 telling me
00:26:58.060 here's your path
00:26:59.260 to success
00:26:59.940 do these things
00:27:01.620 and you will do well.
00:27:03.720 Now I don't know
00:27:04.320 if everybody's parents
00:27:05.160 do that.
00:27:06.620 Like do the
00:27:07.160 poor kids
00:27:08.660 get the same
00:27:09.180 kind of guidance?
00:27:10.740 So here's basically
00:27:11.520 what it is.
00:27:12.140 This is my version
00:27:12.860 of it.
00:27:13.820 Focus on useful
00:27:14.920 education.
00:27:16.460 Keyword is useful.
00:27:18.360 Make sure
00:27:19.020 you get good grades
00:27:20.040 get into college
00:27:21.480 and take a useful
00:27:23.040 major.
00:27:24.760 Does everybody's
00:27:26.620 parents tell them
00:27:27.360 they've got to do
00:27:27.920 something useful
00:27:28.580 or they won't
00:27:29.160 make money?
00:27:30.640 Mine did.
00:27:32.640 I'm pretty sure
00:27:33.540 my mother was
00:27:34.140 quite clear
00:27:34.860 that going to
00:27:36.320 college for no
00:27:37.100 purpose
00:27:37.600 was a losing
00:27:39.060 proposition.
00:27:40.240 You have to go
00:27:40.860 to college
00:27:41.340 for something
00:27:42.280 to be better
00:27:43.960 at something
00:27:44.440 specific
00:27:45.060 that's useful.
00:27:45.740 Does everybody's
00:27:47.680 parents tell
00:27:48.180 them that?
00:27:49.200 To me it was
00:27:49.940 obvious by the
00:27:50.780 time I was in
00:27:51.260 first grade
00:27:51.980 because it was
00:27:53.100 just drilled in
00:27:53.780 from the first
00:27:54.320 days.
00:27:54.700 That's the first
00:27:55.240 thing.
00:27:57.960 Number two
00:27:58.660 stay out of
00:27:59.460 trouble.
00:28:00.080 Stay in a jail.
00:28:02.040 Right?
00:28:02.880 Stay in a jail.
00:28:04.140 Stay off of
00:28:04.740 drugs
00:28:05.180 which I managed
00:28:06.980 to do until
00:28:07.540 college.
00:28:08.000 don't become
00:28:12.320 a parent
00:28:12.780 too soon.
00:28:13.740 Don't have
00:28:14.220 a kid
00:28:14.540 that you
00:28:14.800 weren't
00:28:14.960 planning on
00:28:15.520 too soon.
00:28:17.280 Right?
00:28:17.820 Just basic
00:28:18.480 basic stuff.
00:28:21.280 Don't get
00:28:22.120 anybody knocked
00:28:22.680 up too soon.
00:28:24.460 Build a talent
00:28:25.400 stack.
00:28:26.460 Now that part
00:28:27.000 I'm adding.
00:28:28.260 That wasn't
00:28:29.560 exactly added
00:28:30.740 by my mother.
00:28:31.740 My mother
00:28:32.080 was still
00:28:32.500 the generation 0.55
00:28:33.400 try to be
00:28:34.840 the best
00:28:35.320 at whatever
00:28:35.740 you're doing
00:28:36.140 which was
00:28:37.880 kind of
00:28:38.320 good starter
00:28:39.140 advice
00:28:40.060 but later
00:28:41.140 I developed
00:28:42.120 the concept
00:28:42.680 of the
00:28:43.060 talent stack.
00:28:44.000 That's from
00:28:44.660 my book
00:28:45.020 back there
00:28:45.460 which is
00:28:46.160 now
00:28:46.360 the talent
00:28:47.800 stack idea
00:28:48.420 is now
00:28:49.980 common advice
00:28:51.040 but it wasn't
00:28:52.160 common until
00:28:52.700 I invented it.
00:28:54.240 So that's
00:28:54.780 the one thing
00:28:55.280 I added here.
00:28:56.980 Build a talent
00:28:57.780 stack.
00:28:58.720 Be useful
00:28:59.360 to others.
00:29:00.320 That's the
00:29:00.600 next point.
00:29:02.040 It's not
00:29:02.680 good enough
00:29:03.180 just to be
00:29:03.740 good at
00:29:04.080 something.
00:29:04.700 It has to
00:29:04.980 be good at
00:29:05.380 something that
00:29:05.860 somebody wants
00:29:06.320 to pay
00:29:06.600 for.
00:29:07.140 You have
00:29:07.700 to be
00:29:07.920 useful.
00:29:09.020 And so
00:29:09.460 I was
00:29:10.100 trained to
00:29:10.520 be useful
00:29:11.140 all the
00:29:12.860 time.
00:29:14.180 Like I
00:29:15.060 had to
00:29:15.380 mow the
00:29:15.720 lawn,
00:29:16.080 I had to
00:29:16.340 take the
00:29:16.700 garbage
00:29:16.980 out,
00:29:18.060 I had to
00:29:18.600 do something,
00:29:19.480 get good
00:29:19.980 grades,
00:29:20.940 but I
00:29:21.440 always had
00:29:21.820 to be
00:29:22.060 useful.
00:29:23.240 That was
00:29:23.560 always just
00:29:23.980 baked into
00:29:24.500 the operating
00:29:25.140 system.
00:29:28.260 Favor
00:29:28.700 systems over
00:29:29.520 goals.
00:29:30.680 Make sure
00:29:31.240 that you're
00:29:31.600 doing all
00:29:32.020 the right
00:29:32.320 things to
00:29:33.220 give you
00:29:33.480 lots of
00:29:33.940 options.
00:29:34.300 That was
00:29:34.940 never told
00:29:35.360 to me
00:29:35.600 directly,
00:29:36.440 so again,
00:29:37.300 that's my
00:29:37.740 addition to
00:29:38.420 it.
00:29:38.960 But sort
00:29:39.360 of indirectly,
00:29:40.020 I think I
00:29:40.380 picked that
00:29:40.760 up.
00:29:41.940 And then
00:29:42.460 learn basic
00:29:45.200 risk management.
00:29:47.040 Basic risk
00:29:47.980 management,
00:29:48.620 which includes
00:29:49.180 financial risk
00:29:50.060 management.
00:29:51.100 But I'm
00:29:51.420 making it a
00:29:52.240 little bigger.
00:29:53.180 Now,
00:29:54.060 none of that
00:29:54.820 is hard.
00:29:56.320 Everything on
00:29:57.160 my little list
00:29:57.900 of how to be
00:29:58.520 successful is
00:29:59.760 pretty straightforward.
00:30:00.460 straightforward.
00:30:01.780 Pretty
00:30:02.080 straightforward.
00:30:02.860 There's
00:30:03.080 nobody who
00:30:03.600 couldn't do
00:30:04.060 it, right?
00:30:06.280 You could
00:30:07.020 be in a
00:30:07.340 pretty bad
00:30:07.940 school, but
00:30:09.480 let's say
00:30:09.860 you're a
00:30:10.380 minority
00:30:10.760 student in
00:30:11.460 the worst
00:30:11.820 school.
00:30:12.820 You could
00:30:13.300 not do
00:30:14.220 drugs.
00:30:15.400 There are
00:30:15.720 people who
00:30:16.060 do it.
00:30:16.760 You could
00:30:17.220 not get
00:30:17.800 arrested.
00:30:18.860 It's
00:30:19.100 possible,
00:30:20.240 right?
00:30:21.040 You could
00:30:21.900 do as
00:30:22.340 well as
00:30:23.240 you could
00:30:23.480 do in
00:30:23.820 that poor
00:30:24.260 school,
00:30:25.020 but because
00:30:25.880 you come
00:30:26.260 from a
00:30:27.260 minority
00:30:27.660 disadvantaged
00:30:28.280 situation,
00:30:28.920 you might
00:30:29.680 be able
00:30:29.920 to get
00:30:30.180 a little
00:30:30.800 lift, 0.95
00:30:31.500 maybe a
00:30:32.920 college
00:30:33.200 scholarship,
00:30:34.220 a little
00:30:34.480 extra
00:30:34.780 consideration,
00:30:35.860 and then
00:30:36.340 from there
00:30:36.720 you're on
00:30:37.040 your own.
00:30:38.200 Get yourself
00:30:38.700 a useful
00:30:39.160 major,
00:30:40.440 and you
00:30:41.180 could probably
00:30:41.560 pay for
00:30:41.980 your student
00:30:43.100 loans if
00:30:43.580 you have
00:30:43.820 them,
00:30:44.020 et cetera.
00:30:46.500 So I
00:30:49.220 would just
00:30:49.580 say that
00:30:50.060 things would
00:30:51.300 be really
00:30:51.600 different if
00:30:52.020 we just
00:30:52.300 taught people
00:30:52.720 the basics
00:30:53.180 when they're
00:30:54.340 small.
00:30:55.900 Rasmussen did
00:30:56.560 a poll to
00:30:57.100 find out if
00:30:57.700 people,
00:30:58.040 think that
00:30:59.580 Musk is 0.98
00:31:00.220 going to
00:31:00.460 make Twitter
00:31:01.460 better or
00:31:02.180 worse.
00:31:03.480 34% of
00:31:04.720 American adults
00:31:05.440 who regularly
00:31:06.720 use Twitter
00:31:07.380 believe that
00:31:08.140 Musk will 1.00
00:31:08.660 make the
00:31:09.060 site better.
00:31:10.340 So about
00:31:10.700 a third
00:31:11.120 say he'll
00:31:11.560 make it
00:31:11.800 better.
00:31:12.940 And almost
00:31:13.620 exactly the
00:31:14.280 same think
00:31:15.840 that Musk
00:31:16.460 will make
00:31:16.900 it worse.
00:31:18.640 But how
00:31:19.040 many people,
00:31:19.740 this will be
00:31:20.260 a little
00:31:20.500 test of
00:31:21.080 your psychic
00:31:22.960 ability,
00:31:24.780 how many
00:31:25.240 people roughly
00:31:25.920 do you
00:31:27.220 believe that
00:31:28.640 Elon Musk,
00:31:29.840 the world's
00:31:31.180 greatest
00:31:31.580 entrepreneur,
00:31:33.680 paid $44
00:31:35.100 billion for
00:31:36.280 Twitter to
00:31:37.520 not change it
00:31:38.660 too much?
00:31:39.460 To not change
00:31:40.120 it too much?
00:31:41.360 How many
00:31:41.840 people think
00:31:42.420 they spent
00:31:43.120 $44 billion
00:31:44.160 to not really
00:31:45.740 make anything
00:31:46.260 any different?
00:31:47.900 Wow,
00:31:48.600 you're good.
00:31:49.640 Wow.
00:31:51.460 That's good.
00:31:52.280 It's 24%,
00:31:53.840 but your
00:31:54.280 guesses of
00:31:54.820 25% are
00:31:55.780 just scarily
00:31:57.020 accurate.
00:31:58.220 How do you
00:31:58.840 do that?
00:31:59.540 I don't know.
00:32:00.340 I don't know
00:32:00.660 how you do
00:32:01.040 it.
00:32:03.060 Well,
00:32:03.620 the Twitter
00:32:03.960 cybernetic
00:32:04.640 brain,
00:32:05.900 which fascinates
00:32:06.860 me when I
00:32:07.320 look at the
00:32:07.780 currently
00:32:08.380 trending
00:32:08.840 section,
00:32:10.080 because to
00:32:10.660 me that's
00:32:11.060 the consciousness
00:32:11.780 or where
00:32:12.760 Twitter is
00:32:14.020 focusing its
00:32:14.740 brain.
00:32:16.120 And there
00:32:16.400 were four
00:32:16.780 names in
00:32:17.260 my,
00:32:18.080 I think it's
00:32:18.620 different for
00:32:19.060 each person,
00:32:19.660 but in my
00:32:20.240 list,
00:32:21.240 these four
00:32:21.700 names,
00:32:22.280 Nick Fuentes,
00:32:23.460 Will Smith,
00:32:24.580 Alexander
00:32:25.060 Vindman,
00:32:25.680 and Tim
00:32:26.020 Poole.
00:32:26.760 Those were
00:32:27.280 all the
00:32:27.540 trending
00:32:27.860 names today
00:32:28.660 on my
00:32:29.300 list.
00:32:30.220 And I'm
00:32:30.500 thinking,
00:32:31.340 poor Tim
00:32:31.800 Poole.
00:32:32.900 Tim Poole
00:32:33.600 gets thrown
00:32:34.080 on the
00:32:34.400 list with
00:32:34.900 Fuentes,
00:32:35.980 Will Smith,
00:32:36.560 and Vindman.
00:32:38.020 But for
00:32:38.600 different reasons,
00:32:39.960 except that
00:32:40.500 they're all
00:32:40.760 being criticized.
00:32:42.420 Right?
00:32:42.680 They're all
00:32:43.000 being criticized,
00:32:43.920 or in some
00:32:44.400 cases,
00:32:45.480 complimented.
00:32:48.320 Speaking of
00:32:49.040 Tim Poole,
00:32:49.780 you probably
00:32:50.320 know by now
00:32:51.040 that he got
00:32:52.160 an exclusive
00:32:53.300 kind of a
00:32:54.020 scoop interview
00:32:55.200 with Ye and
00:32:56.180 Milo and
00:32:56.800 Nick Fuentes.
00:32:58.140 That would be
00:32:59.000 the first,
00:32:59.580 I think,
00:32:59.920 big,
00:33:01.060 probably the
00:33:01.540 first time
00:33:01.900 they would
00:33:02.100 appear together
00:33:02.700 since the
00:33:04.220 dinner at
00:33:05.080 Mar-a-Lago.
00:33:06.820 And if you
00:33:07.380 didn't know,
00:33:09.540 it ended
00:33:10.360 abruptly when
00:33:11.960 Tim very
00:33:12.960 carefully broached
00:33:14.520 the anti-Semitism
00:33:16.820 topic,
00:33:18.160 and then
00:33:18.900 Ye got
00:33:19.380 up and
00:33:19.840 left
00:33:20.380 without
00:33:20.680 comment.
00:33:22.560 Now,
00:33:23.860 who knows
00:33:24.560 what Ye is
00:33:25.220 thinking,
00:33:25.740 right?
00:33:25.940 It's impossible
00:33:26.500 to imagine.
00:33:28.040 But here
00:33:28.540 are the
00:33:28.740 things we
00:33:29.120 learned.
00:33:30.280 Number one,
00:33:31.080 Ye confirmed
00:33:31.740 that Trump
00:33:32.780 did not know
00:33:34.180 that Fuentes
00:33:34.780 was coming,
00:33:36.380 and Trump
00:33:37.060 did not know
00:33:38.420 who Fuentes
00:33:38.900 was.
00:33:40.820 Now,
00:33:41.180 I believe
00:33:41.560 that's true.
00:33:42.760 I believe
00:33:43.120 that's true.
00:33:44.080 Because
00:33:44.640 Axios reported
00:33:45.920 the same thing
00:33:46.620 before Ye did. 0.64
00:33:48.100 So we have
00:33:48.680 now two
00:33:49.240 sources that
00:33:50.660 are not
00:33:50.920 necessarily on
00:33:51.540 the same
00:33:51.840 side saying
00:33:53.160 the same
00:33:53.460 thing,
00:33:53.840 and also
00:33:54.520 Trump said
00:33:55.040 the same
00:33:55.320 thing.
00:33:56.040 So it
00:33:56.340 looks like
00:33:56.740 everybody's
00:33:57.900 agreeing with
00:33:58.340 that.
00:33:59.080 Now,
00:33:59.980 some people
00:34:00.640 are saying,
00:34:01.620 well,
00:34:02.360 it looks like
00:34:03.120 the Tim
00:34:04.000 Poole
00:34:04.400 interview,
00:34:06.120 as short
00:34:06.440 as it was,
00:34:07.000 about 26
00:34:07.660 minutes,
00:34:08.140 I think,
00:34:09.060 it cleared
00:34:09.880 Trump.
00:34:10.920 What do
00:34:11.140 you think?
00:34:11.960 Is Trump
00:34:12.400 cleared now
00:34:13.200 because he
00:34:13.940 didn't know
00:34:14.380 Fuentes and
00:34:15.420 did not
00:34:15.820 invite him?
00:34:16.360 Go.
00:34:17.020 Is he
00:34:17.380 cleared?
00:34:18.660 No.
00:34:20.060 Nothing
00:34:20.580 works like
00:34:21.180 that.
00:34:23.060 You're
00:34:23.540 falling into
00:34:24.120 the trap
00:34:24.580 of imagining
00:34:25.300 that any
00:34:27.460 kind of
00:34:27.800 common sense
00:34:28.480 or rational
00:34:29.120 thought is
00:34:29.720 involved here.
00:34:30.440 There's none
00:34:30.800 of that.
00:34:31.720 It's purely
00:34:32.340 a narrative
00:34:32.820 that the
00:34:33.980 left is
00:34:34.380 never going
00:34:34.780 to let
00:34:35.020 go of.
00:34:35.900 It doesn't
00:34:36.500 matter how
00:34:36.920 true or
00:34:38.000 valid or
00:34:39.040 anything.
00:34:40.000 All you
00:34:40.340 have to
00:34:40.580 know is
00:34:40.900 that they've
00:34:41.260 chosen it
00:34:41.800 as a
00:34:42.160 narrative,
00:34:42.640 that they're
00:34:42.940 going to
00:34:43.200 ride that
00:34:44.560 horse until
00:34:45.200 it expires.
00:34:46.360 And they
00:34:47.480 are.
00:34:47.900 And they're
00:34:48.220 doing a
00:34:48.500 good job
00:34:48.860 of it.
00:34:49.140 They're
00:34:49.220 really nailing
00:34:49.900 it hard.
00:34:51.280 So, no,
00:34:52.220 Trump is
00:34:52.580 done.
00:34:54.000 In my
00:34:54.380 opinion, Trump
00:34:55.020 does not
00:34:55.560 come back
00:34:56.020 from that.
00:34:56.920 I think
00:34:57.340 that was a
00:34:57.740 kill shot.
00:34:58.180 does anybody
00:35:00.300 disagree?
00:35:01.380 How many
00:35:01.940 of you think
00:35:02.360 Trump could
00:35:02.820 come back
00:35:03.220 from that?
00:35:05.640 Because,
00:35:06.180 remember,
00:35:06.480 it's not
00:35:06.760 even true.
00:35:07.960 It's like
00:35:09.140 half hoax,
00:35:10.060 half a little
00:35:10.600 bit true.
00:35:12.040 So, you
00:35:12.540 think he
00:35:12.840 can?
00:35:13.680 Now, the
00:35:14.240 argument that
00:35:14.740 he can is
00:35:15.520 that our
00:35:15.900 attention span
00:35:16.620 is too
00:35:17.000 short.
00:35:18.040 The trouble
00:35:18.520 is our
00:35:19.160 attention span
00:35:19.960 is irrelevant
00:35:20.980 if it's all
00:35:22.400 they talk
00:35:22.820 about.
00:35:23.060 Do you
00:35:26.260 remember that
00:35:27.000 Biden ran
00:35:27.980 on the
00:35:28.740 Charlottesville
00:35:29.300 hoax?
00:35:30.660 We elected
00:35:31.480 a president
00:35:32.100 on a
00:35:33.480 hoax.
00:35:34.560 It didn't
00:35:35.240 matter that
00:35:35.640 it was a
00:35:35.980 hoax.
00:35:36.880 And it
00:35:37.280 didn't matter
00:35:37.740 that it
00:35:37.980 was the
00:35:38.240 most easily
00:35:38.840 verifiable
00:35:39.500 hoax.
00:35:40.840 You just
00:35:41.200 had to
00:35:41.480 listen to
00:35:41.880 it.
00:35:42.320 Oh, okay,
00:35:43.060 that was a
00:35:43.400 hoax.
00:35:43.700 That didn't
00:35:43.940 really happen.
00:35:45.380 But think
00:35:46.700 about it.
00:35:47.740 You probably
00:35:48.780 would have
00:35:49.180 said that
00:35:50.520 Charlottesville
00:35:51.160 thing, once
00:35:51.800 it's debunked
00:35:52.560 as an
00:35:52.820 obvious
00:35:53.080 hoax, you
00:35:54.080 probably
00:35:54.320 said, well,
00:35:54.960 it's not
00:35:55.340 real, so
00:35:56.600 that's not
00:35:56.980 going to
00:35:57.180 affect anything
00:35:57.740 in the
00:35:58.020 real world.
00:35:59.220 But it
00:35:59.600 elected Biden.
00:36:00.980 It actually
00:36:01.420 changed the
00:36:02.180 nature of
00:36:02.760 our leadership
00:36:03.300 of the
00:36:03.720 biggest
00:36:03.940 country in
00:36:04.440 the world,
00:36:05.100 or the
00:36:05.660 most powerful.
00:36:08.220 So, yes,
00:36:09.960 the fact
00:36:10.740 that this
00:36:12.380 happened, even
00:36:13.080 though it
00:36:13.420 looks like an
00:36:14.000 op to me,
00:36:15.000 it wasn't
00:36:15.420 Trump's fault,
00:36:16.900 per se.
00:36:18.620 Now, I
00:36:20.100 want to give
00:36:20.560 you, you
00:36:21.660 know, I
00:36:21.880 often compliment
00:36:22.880 Mike Pence
00:36:23.960 for being a
00:36:26.080 clever politician
00:36:27.000 who avoids
00:36:27.620 getting in
00:36:28.080 trouble.
00:36:29.100 I want you
00:36:29.900 to hear how
00:36:30.440 cleverly he
00:36:31.480 criticized Trump,
00:36:34.040 because he's
00:36:34.680 really good at
00:36:35.540 this.
00:36:36.680 He wanted to
00:36:37.480 criticize him,
00:36:38.400 clearly, but
00:36:40.260 not go too
00:36:41.280 far into
00:36:41.920 crazyville,
00:36:42.760 right?
00:36:43.620 Crazyville says
00:36:45.060 that Trump
00:36:45.460 invited him.
00:36:46.920 Like, that's
00:36:47.640 too far.
00:36:48.100 So, I
00:36:49.540 hope you're
00:36:49.960 not going
00:36:50.240 to see
00:36:50.460 any
00:36:50.720 Republicans
00:36:51.440 buy into
00:36:53.760 the part
00:36:54.120 that he
00:36:54.960 got invited.
00:36:56.440 So, Pence
00:36:56.900 is too
00:36:57.280 smart to
00:36:58.120 fall into
00:36:58.520 that part.
00:36:59.420 But here's
00:36:59.820 how Pence,
00:37:00.560 who we
00:37:01.700 believe will
00:37:02.140 run against
00:37:02.720 Trump for
00:37:03.460 president.
00:37:05.740 Pence
00:37:06.260 said,
00:37:07.340 Pence says,
00:37:10.040 President
00:37:11.900 Trump was
00:37:12.480 wrong to
00:37:13.000 give a
00:37:13.280 white
00:37:13.460 nationalist
00:37:14.060 and
00:37:14.360 anti-Semite
00:37:15.200 and a
00:37:15.980 Holocaust 0.95
00:37:16.400 denier a
00:37:17.200 seat at
00:37:17.540 the table.
00:37:19.100 Blah, blah,
00:37:19.760 blah.
00:37:19.960 And then he
00:37:20.200 said it
00:37:20.500 again, a
00:37:21.040 seat at
00:37:21.400 the table.
00:37:22.120 Giving him
00:37:22.740 a seat at
00:37:23.240 the table.
00:37:24.360 Is that
00:37:25.000 not brilliant?
00:37:27.080 That is
00:37:27.700 brilliant for
00:37:28.620 political
00:37:29.300 criticism without
00:37:31.140 being technically
00:37:32.180 incorrect.
00:37:33.360 Because giving
00:37:34.180 somebody a
00:37:34.780 seat at the
00:37:35.240 table is
00:37:36.700 conceptual.
00:37:38.200 It's
00:37:38.440 conceptual.
00:37:38.880 But it
00:37:40.240 also makes
00:37:41.360 you think of
00:37:41.800 the real
00:37:42.100 thing.
00:37:43.040 Because at
00:37:43.460 the same
00:37:43.800 time there
00:37:44.180 was a
00:37:44.480 conceptual
00:37:45.000 seat at
00:37:45.620 the table,
00:37:46.440 there was
00:37:46.940 actually a
00:37:47.540 literal seat
00:37:48.120 at the
00:37:48.400 table.
00:37:51.100 Pence is
00:37:51.760 a fucking 0.88
00:37:52.120 genius.
00:37:55.100 That is
00:37:55.780 genius,
00:37:56.940 communication
00:37:57.380 wise.
00:37:58.780 I mean, I
00:38:00.080 don't think
00:38:00.520 it's an
00:38:00.860 accident that
00:38:01.500 he was such
00:38:01.980 a good
00:38:02.240 vice
00:38:02.460 president.
00:38:03.460 His
00:38:03.820 ability to
00:38:04.460 parse
00:38:04.820 words and
00:38:06.320 pick just
00:38:06.880 the right
00:38:07.400 word that
00:38:07.980 doesn't get
00:38:08.440 him in
00:38:08.800 trouble while
00:38:09.840 still saying
00:38:10.460 something is
00:38:11.540 quite impressive.
00:38:12.780 That is
00:38:13.080 quite impressive.
00:38:14.080 I don't
00:38:14.460 prefer him
00:38:15.300 for president,
00:38:16.640 but I
00:38:17.120 just like
00:38:17.580 your credit
00:38:18.320 where credit
00:38:18.740 is due.
00:38:19.240 That was
00:38:19.520 really good.
00:38:20.960 Now, you
00:38:21.420 don't like it
00:38:21.940 if you're
00:38:22.560 supporting Trump,
00:38:23.240 you don't like
00:38:23.740 it because it's
00:38:24.220 a pretty good
00:38:24.640 hit.
00:38:25.480 But a
00:38:26.280 place at the
00:38:26.880 table that
00:38:27.960 gives him
00:38:28.340 everything,
00:38:29.180 that's just
00:38:30.280 the perfect,
00:38:31.060 perfect
00:38:31.300 criticism.
00:38:31.860 Now, and
00:38:37.720 I suppose
00:38:38.100 the question
00:38:38.580 is should
00:38:38.960 Trump have
00:38:39.560 gotten up
00:38:40.900 and left?
00:38:42.280 But I
00:38:42.740 don't believe
00:38:43.160 Trump knew
00:38:43.660 exactly who
00:38:44.760 Fuentes was
00:38:45.600 the entire
00:38:46.060 dinner.
00:38:46.980 Like, I
00:38:47.260 think he
00:38:47.860 figured it
00:38:48.300 out later.
00:38:49.080 But then he
00:38:49.640 had a chance
00:38:50.140 to disavow
00:38:51.060 him.
00:38:51.760 So here's
00:38:52.140 my next
00:38:52.500 question.
00:38:54.180 Should
00:38:54.520 Trump have
00:38:55.200 disavowed
00:38:56.080 Nick Fuentes?
00:38:58.320 Go.
00:38:59.640 Should Trump
00:39:00.240 have
00:39:00.460 disavowed
00:39:01.240 Nick Fuentes?
00:39:04.880 I'm seeing
00:39:05.560 mixed messages.
00:39:08.160 Here's why
00:39:08.800 this is not
00:39:09.440 an obvious
00:39:09.880 question.
00:39:13.080 As a
00:39:13.800 citizen of
00:39:14.360 the United
00:39:14.680 States, I
00:39:15.740 can disavow
00:39:16.620 Nick Fuentes.
00:39:17.780 I disavow
00:39:18.660 him.
00:39:19.340 There, I
00:39:19.580 just did it.
00:39:20.760 So I
00:39:21.500 think you'd
00:39:21.860 all agree
00:39:22.200 that citizens
00:39:22.860 can disavow
00:39:23.720 anybody,
00:39:24.220 right?
00:39:24.460 Just an
00:39:24.820 ordinary
00:39:25.080 citizen.
00:39:25.920 Yeah, we
00:39:26.260 all have
00:39:26.520 free speech.
00:39:27.020 We can
00:39:27.240 disavow
00:39:27.740 anybody we
00:39:28.200 want.
00:39:29.040 But here's
00:39:29.480 my question.
00:39:30.240 If there's
00:39:32.140 going to
00:39:32.340 be one
00:39:32.740 exception,
00:39:34.240 there's only
00:39:34.860 one kind
00:39:35.580 of person
00:39:36.000 I want
00:39:36.520 to not
00:39:37.080 be
00:39:37.440 criticizing
00:39:38.000 citizens,
00:39:39.040 and it's
00:39:39.500 the president.
00:39:41.220 That's the
00:39:41.600 only person
00:39:42.140 I don't
00:39:42.460 want to
00:39:42.760 criticize,
00:39:44.040 a citizen
00:39:45.720 who's
00:39:46.080 obeying
00:39:46.540 the law.
00:39:47.620 This is
00:39:48.100 an important
00:39:48.560 caveat.
00:39:49.840 So given
00:39:50.340 that Fuentes
00:39:51.500 is obeying
00:39:52.840 the law,
00:39:53.300 as far as
00:39:53.680 I know,
00:39:54.780 he's not
00:39:55.340 been accused
00:39:55.780 of any
00:39:56.160 law-breaking,
00:39:56.980 as far as
00:39:57.420 I know.
00:39:58.380 So as
00:39:58.740 long as he's
00:39:59.220 a law-abiding
00:39:59.880 person who
00:40:00.540 just has
00:40:01.140 ugly opinions,
00:40:03.520 in the opinion
00:40:04.260 of many
00:40:04.680 people,
00:40:05.700 I'm perfectly
00:40:06.860 okay with
00:40:07.600 a president,
00:40:08.620 whether it's
00:40:09.020 Trump or
00:40:09.360 anybody else,
00:40:10.300 I'm perfectly
00:40:10.960 okay with
00:40:11.780 a president
00:40:12.220 criticizing
00:40:12.900 behavior and
00:40:14.880 opinions and
00:40:16.840 ugly, you 1.00
00:40:17.960 know, bad
00:40:18.380 policy ideas.
00:40:20.100 But disavowing a 0.95
00:40:21.760 person by name,
00:40:23.220 that's too far.
00:40:26.180 That feels
00:40:26.960 too far.
00:40:28.400 Now, the
00:40:29.200 exception would
00:40:31.100 be a critic.
00:40:32.760 So if a
00:40:33.400 politician goes
00:40:34.100 after somebody
00:40:34.760 who's just
00:40:35.160 been, like,
00:40:36.480 dogging them
00:40:37.020 forever, like,
00:40:37.960 you know,
00:40:39.220 Rob Reiner or
00:40:40.100 something, you
00:40:41.000 know, if a
00:40:41.400 president goes
00:40:41.920 after Rob
00:40:42.460 Reiner, it's
00:40:43.040 because that's
00:40:43.740 somebody who's
00:40:44.100 been going
00:40:44.420 after him
00:40:44.860 personally for
00:40:45.460 a long time,
00:40:45.960 that's fine.
00:40:46.720 That's just
00:40:47.100 politics.
00:40:48.060 But to go
00:40:48.720 after somebody
00:40:49.240 who has not
00:40:49.740 been criticizing
00:40:50.560 you, and
00:40:52.420 only has
00:40:52.940 opinions that
00:40:53.560 you feel are
00:40:54.180 vile, do you
00:40:56.260 want your
00:40:56.600 president to
00:40:57.400 do that?
00:40:58.660 And I say, I
00:41:00.140 do not want my
00:41:01.100 president to be
00:41:02.040 insulting any
00:41:03.960 individual citizen
00:41:05.040 with the obvious
00:41:06.800 exception of
00:41:07.480 Rosie O'Donnell.
00:41:08.260 I think we
00:41:08.640 could all agree
00:41:09.260 that if it's
00:41:11.060 Rosie O'Donnell,
00:41:11.780 that's fine.
00:41:12.540 That's fine.
00:41:13.720 But everybody
00:41:14.720 else, everybody
00:41:16.460 else, no.
00:41:17.540 No.
00:41:18.560 All right.
00:41:19.560 So I feel
00:41:21.220 like this is a
00:41:22.000 fine line, but
00:41:23.320 I think it's an
00:41:23.780 important one.
00:41:24.500 Now, I think
00:41:24.900 Trump did not
00:41:25.800 disavow Fuente's
00:41:28.580 opinions, and
00:41:30.280 that's sort of
00:41:31.220 a glaring thing
00:41:32.920 that's missing.
00:41:33.820 But I think he
00:41:34.500 could have
00:41:34.820 parsed it.
00:41:35.920 I think Trump
00:41:37.000 could have
00:41:37.260 said, you
00:41:37.520 know what?
00:41:38.740 If somebody
00:41:39.420 is obeying the
00:41:40.100 law and they
00:41:40.520 have terrible
00:41:41.020 opinions, I'm
00:41:41.640 still going to
00:41:42.000 eat with them.
00:41:43.300 But I will
00:41:44.000 disavow their
00:41:44.620 opinions.
00:41:45.260 If you'd like
00:41:45.760 to hear that,
00:41:46.340 yes, I
00:41:46.680 disavow that
00:41:47.220 opinion.
00:41:48.140 That would
00:41:48.680 work for me.
00:41:50.000 That would
00:41:50.340 work.
00:41:50.580 I say that
00:41:55.440 censorship is
00:41:56.220 the new
00:41:56.520 voting.
00:41:57.060 What do
00:41:57.200 you say?
00:41:58.560 Because we've
00:41:59.200 got this big
00:41:59.660 debate over
00:42:00.260 whether Musk
00:42:00.920 is improving
00:42:02.320 free speech
00:42:03.040 or making
00:42:04.160 it worse,
00:42:05.120 say his
00:42:05.580 critics.
00:42:06.520 But whichever
00:42:07.180 way it is,
00:42:08.420 would you
00:42:10.060 agree that
00:42:10.540 the following
00:42:11.080 is true?
00:42:13.060 That censorship
00:42:14.320 determines what
00:42:15.580 narrative is
00:42:17.480 the important
00:42:18.220 one?
00:42:18.460 would you
00:42:19.020 agree?
00:42:20.320 If you
00:42:20.900 never see a
00:42:22.120 competing
00:42:22.500 narrative, you
00:42:23.340 latch on to
00:42:24.140 the one that
00:42:24.740 you see.
00:42:25.980 So censorship
00:42:26.620 determines what
00:42:28.080 narrative rises
00:42:29.240 to our
00:42:29.940 attention, right?
00:42:31.820 And the
00:42:32.560 narrative would
00:42:33.300 determine your
00:42:34.100 opinion, right?
00:42:35.680 So that's how we
00:42:36.400 get opinions.
00:42:37.080 We don't really
00:42:37.780 make opinions on
00:42:38.640 our own.
00:42:39.940 Opinions are
00:42:40.440 essentially assigned
00:42:41.560 to us by the
00:42:42.760 way the narrative
00:42:43.820 is presented to
00:42:44.620 us.
00:42:45.560 So the
00:42:46.500 censorship
00:42:47.100 determines the
00:42:47.920 narrative.
00:42:48.460 The narrative
00:42:49.140 determines
00:42:50.120 public opinion.
00:42:51.660 Public opinion
00:42:52.500 determines what
00:42:54.280 the vote is,
00:42:55.100 because then we
00:42:55.540 vote our
00:42:56.140 opinions.
00:42:57.360 So you've
00:42:57.920 got the
00:42:58.280 censorship
00:42:58.680 determines the
00:42:59.400 narrative,
00:42:59.840 the narrative
00:43:00.220 determines our
00:43:00.900 public opinion,
00:43:01.720 our public
00:43:02.100 opinion determines
00:43:02.860 the vote.
00:43:04.500 And that's
00:43:05.280 it.
00:43:06.580 That's our
00:43:07.260 current system.
00:43:09.060 The current
00:43:09.860 system is just
00:43:11.140 a censorship
00:43:11.820 game.
00:43:13.840 The vote
00:43:14.220 actually becomes
00:43:15.100 a somewhat
00:43:16.300 subsidiary
00:43:17.280 downstream
00:43:18.100 guaranteed
00:43:19.620 effect that
00:43:21.040 is guaranteed
00:43:21.600 by what
00:43:22.080 happens
00:43:22.400 upstream.
00:43:24.020 Right?
00:43:24.240 The vote is
00:43:24.780 downstream from
00:43:25.460 censorship.
00:43:27.440 I'm borrowing
00:43:28.100 Andrew Breitbart's
00:43:29.160 famous saying
00:43:29.760 that politics is
00:43:31.180 downstream from
00:43:31.880 culture.
00:43:33.740 But the vote
00:43:36.140 is downstream
00:43:37.000 from censorship.
00:43:39.020 Now, was this
00:43:39.820 always the case?
00:43:40.780 Has this always
00:43:42.920 been our system?
00:43:43.880 Because I don't
00:43:44.340 think so.
00:43:44.800 It feels like
00:43:45.960 it's something
00:43:46.380 that could 0.68
00:43:47.000 evolve because
00:43:48.160 of social
00:43:48.680 media and
00:43:49.420 the media
00:43:50.800 landscape.
00:43:54.560 I'm just
00:43:55.180 seeing one
00:43:55.540 comment.
00:43:56.460 I think it's
00:43:56.920 I don't know
00:43:57.780 who it's for
00:43:58.340 but it just
00:43:58.700 says fuck
00:43:59.140 you.
00:43:59.740 It feels
00:44:00.000 like it's
00:44:00.300 for me
00:44:00.640 but maybe
00:44:02.880 not.
00:44:05.220 Might have
00:44:05.800 been for
00:44:06.060 another
00:44:06.300 commenter.
00:44:07.600 But this
00:44:08.420 battle over
00:44:09.220 censorship and
00:44:10.580 Twitter in
00:44:11.240 particular,
00:44:12.000 because Twitter
00:44:12.540 Twitter, as
00:44:13.620 you know, is
00:44:14.580 the lever that
00:44:15.560 moves all the
00:44:16.200 other media
00:44:16.720 because it's
00:44:18.240 the place that
00:44:18.820 the media
00:44:19.320 professionals go
00:44:20.300 to find out
00:44:21.400 what they can
00:44:21.920 get away with
00:44:22.520 and if you
00:44:23.340 can get away
00:44:23.840 with it on
00:44:24.280 Twitter, then
00:44:25.460 you can take
00:44:25.960 it to the
00:44:26.260 rest of the
00:44:26.600 world.
00:44:27.480 So this is
00:44:28.820 the biggest
00:44:29.220 battle because
00:44:31.220 our political
00:44:32.600 system is now
00:44:33.640 basically down to
00:44:35.000 what Twitter
00:44:36.100 will allow you
00:44:36.880 to see.
00:44:38.540 And I think
00:44:39.300 it has been
00:44:39.880 this way and
00:44:40.520 I think our
00:44:42.080 last election
00:44:42.920 came down to
00:44:44.600 what Twitter
00:44:45.320 allowed people
00:44:46.140 to see.
00:44:47.680 Let me ask
00:44:48.420 you this.
00:44:49.960 As many
00:44:50.400 times as the
00:44:51.660 Charlottesville
00:44:52.420 find people
00:44:53.380 thing, I'm
00:44:55.540 going to get
00:44:55.840 rid of this
00:44:56.400 guy.
00:44:57.900 As many
00:44:58.300 times as the
00:44:58.980 Charlottesville
00:44:59.700 why are you
00:45:03.360 on here saying
00:45:04.240 bad things,
00:45:04.960 Eddie?
00:45:06.700 All right,
00:45:07.500 Eddie, don't
00:45:07.980 do that.
00:45:08.340 I'm going
00:45:10.660 to turn
00:45:11.700 off the
00:45:12.180 locals.
00:45:15.440 I'm going
00:45:15.980 to keep
00:45:16.180 the locals
00:45:16.580 feed, but 0.97
00:45:17.480 I'm going
00:45:17.680 to turn
00:45:17.980 off the
00:45:18.480 open part
00:45:19.800 so it's
00:45:20.360 going to
00:45:20.560 be only
00:45:21.040 for people
00:45:21.540 who are
00:45:21.740 subscribers
00:45:22.280 because I
00:45:23.260 think I
00:45:23.540 got a
00:45:23.880 troll over
00:45:24.520 here.
00:45:25.360 So when I
00:45:25.960 turn off
00:45:26.400 the open
00:45:27.780 part, it
00:45:28.820 should get
00:45:29.140 rid of the
00:45:29.440 troll.
00:45:30.260 So we'll
00:45:30.800 do that.
00:45:31.620 If you're
00:45:32.040 on locals
00:45:32.720 and you're
00:45:33.900 not the
00:45:34.220 troll, go
00:45:34.660 over to
00:45:34.900 YouTube and
00:45:35.360 you can
00:45:35.660 watch it.
00:45:36.180 Boom.
00:45:38.900 All right,
00:45:39.260 so locals
00:45:39.800 is now
00:45:40.180 private for
00:45:40.740 subscribers.
00:45:42.640 But I'm
00:45:43.300 not wrong,
00:45:43.820 right?
00:45:44.240 The battle
00:45:44.980 over Twitter
00:45:45.580 is our
00:45:46.680 new political
00:45:47.240 system because
00:45:48.780 Twitter will
00:45:49.380 determine what
00:45:50.260 we think or
00:45:51.280 what the
00:45:51.740 journalists can
00:45:52.740 get away
00:45:53.080 with.
00:45:53.620 And back
00:45:53.880 to my
00:45:54.120 earlier point,
00:45:55.380 if Musk
00:45:56.340 had owned
00:45:56.940 Twitter before,
00:45:59.540 could Biden
00:46:00.240 have run on
00:46:01.000 the find
00:46:01.680 people hoax
00:46:02.380 and gotten
00:46:02.780 away with
00:46:03.180 it?
00:46:03.340 I'm not
00:46:05.380 sure.
00:46:06.680 I don't
00:46:07.120 think he
00:46:07.460 could have.
00:46:08.240 Because it
00:46:08.700 was only
00:46:09.020 because the
00:46:09.640 Democrats were
00:46:10.320 completely walled
00:46:11.340 off from any
00:46:12.260 hoax debunking.
00:46:13.900 They just
00:46:14.200 never saw it.
00:46:15.620 And even the
00:46:16.220 professionals never
00:46:16.980 saw it.
00:46:18.060 There are plenty
00:46:18.840 of people in the
00:46:19.620 professional reporting
00:46:20.840 journalist field who
00:46:22.420 actually believe that
00:46:23.660 the Charlottesville
00:46:26.260 find people hoax was
00:46:27.380 a real thing that
00:46:28.060 happened.
00:46:29.120 They literally
00:46:29.700 believe it
00:46:30.140 happened.
00:46:30.940 That's only
00:46:31.480 because Twitter
00:46:32.200 allowed them
00:46:33.360 not to see
00:46:33.880 the other
00:46:34.200 side.
00:46:35.380 So maybe
00:46:35.900 that'll change.
00:46:36.880 I don't know.
00:46:40.060 And certainly
00:46:40.840 Twitter has
00:46:41.400 completely changed
00:46:42.300 who is visible.
00:46:43.640 My visibility
00:46:44.380 on Twitter
00:46:45.000 went through
00:46:45.500 the roof
00:46:45.960 recently.
00:46:47.820 I don't know
00:46:48.480 if anybody's
00:46:48.940 noticed.
00:46:49.400 If you look
00:46:49.760 at my Twitter
00:46:50.200 feed, the 0.95
00:46:51.080 number of
00:46:51.440 subscribers is
00:46:52.340 climbing like
00:46:52.920 crazy faster
00:46:53.820 than ever
00:46:54.440 before.
00:46:55.760 And when I
00:46:56.920 do even a
00:46:57.640 medium quality
00:46:58.680 tweet, I get
00:47:00.760 over a
00:47:01.160 thousand likes
00:47:02.080 and that
00:47:03.420 would have
00:47:03.680 been 200
00:47:04.660 before
00:47:05.160 Musk.
00:47:06.520 So it's
00:47:07.120 probably a
00:47:07.840 5x visibility
00:47:09.460 difference for
00:47:10.940 me.
00:47:12.200 Now, you
00:47:13.120 don't think the
00:47:13.640 left was trying
00:47:14.200 to suppress
00:47:14.720 me?
00:47:16.400 If they
00:47:17.040 weren't trying
00:47:17.460 to suppress
00:47:18.080 me, they
00:47:18.560 weren't playing
00:47:19.580 the right
00:47:19.900 game.
00:47:20.600 They should
00:47:21.040 have been.
00:47:21.860 They should
00:47:22.260 have figured
00:47:22.580 out who's
00:47:23.080 making a
00:47:23.540 difference, who
00:47:24.020 can move
00:47:24.360 the needle and
00:47:25.640 focus on those
00:47:27.100 people.
00:47:27.360 all right.
00:47:31.160 Musk, this 0.95
00:47:32.060 is like the
00:47:32.460 biggest story,
00:47:34.100 I don't know,
00:47:35.660 of since the
00:47:37.520 pandemic, I
00:47:38.200 guess, or
00:47:38.620 maybe it's not
00:47:39.700 as big as
00:47:40.120 Ukraine, but
00:47:40.900 it's up there,
00:47:42.060 that Musk is
00:47:43.380 going to go
00:47:43.960 full transparency,
00:47:45.880 he's promised
00:47:46.480 us, that the
00:47:47.660 public deserves
00:47:48.480 to know what
00:47:49.340 quote really
00:47:50.280 happened at
00:47:50.960 Twitter in
00:47:52.080 terms of the
00:47:52.580 censorship.
00:47:53.760 They're actually
00:47:54.620 preparing a
00:47:55.480 full report
00:47:56.360 report that
00:47:57.060 will be on
00:47:57.520 Twitter, and
00:47:58.840 this is fun
00:47:59.340 too, Twitter
00:47:59.900 will be the
00:48:00.360 publisher.
00:48:01.680 So this is
00:48:02.280 something you
00:48:02.680 would normally
00:48:03.060 expect to be
00:48:03.740 published in
00:48:04.280 some other
00:48:04.720 place, and
00:48:05.900 Twitter would
00:48:06.380 just point to
00:48:07.000 it.
00:48:07.900 But because
00:48:08.400 it's Elon,
00:48:09.360 he's doing it
00:48:09.880 the smart way.
00:48:10.940 It will be
00:48:11.480 published on
00:48:12.300 Twitter, so
00:48:13.000 you have to
00:48:13.300 go to Twitter
00:48:13.760 and you have
00:48:14.080 to stay there
00:48:14.560 to read it.
00:48:16.700 Anybody who
00:48:17.380 says that
00:48:17.900 Musk isn't 1.00
00:48:19.640 going to make
00:48:20.020 this a better
00:48:20.540 product, you're
00:48:21.840 really not paying
00:48:22.480 attention.
00:48:23.680 He's already
00:48:24.380 made it a
00:48:24.860 better product.
00:48:25.520 There's no
00:48:26.660 question about
00:48:27.280 it.
00:48:28.240 Everything he's
00:48:29.140 doing, even
00:48:30.340 the mistakes, are
00:48:31.760 all heading in
00:48:32.280 the right
00:48:32.520 direction.
00:48:32.980 Okay, that
00:48:33.360 didn't work.
00:48:34.380 All right, that
00:48:34.860 didn't work
00:48:35.260 either, but we'll
00:48:36.020 try this.
00:48:36.800 I mean, it's
00:48:37.020 all working.
00:48:40.520 But I would
00:48:41.500 say it is also
00:48:42.840 true that the
00:48:44.080 worst racists have
00:48:46.140 returned to the
00:48:46.780 platform.
00:48:47.780 Would you
00:48:48.360 agree?
00:48:49.740 Has anybody
00:48:50.440 seen an increase
00:48:51.440 in anti-Semitism
00:48:53.240 and racism?
00:48:55.520 I have.
00:48:57.260 I've seen it.
00:48:58.280 But only
00:48:58.700 recently.
00:49:00.580 Only the last
00:49:01.400 few days.
00:49:02.200 I didn't see it
00:49:02.820 until the last
00:49:03.540 few days.
00:49:04.660 Now, maybe
00:49:05.120 because of his
00:49:05.800 amnesty or
00:49:06.500 something.
00:49:08.020 Yeah, I've
00:49:08.540 seen some super
00:49:09.620 ugly anti-Semitic
00:49:12.020 kind of stuff
00:49:13.020 lately.
00:49:14.760 Yeah, it's the
00:49:16.380 yay effect, because
00:49:17.120 people are using
00:49:18.520 that as their
00:49:19.060 topic for which
00:49:20.520 to spew.
00:49:21.820 Yeah, it's
00:49:22.680 probably the
00:49:23.020 yay effect.
00:49:24.400 But we'll see if
00:49:25.240 that's a lasting
00:49:25.840 thing or not.
00:49:26.720 Now, what's
00:49:27.040 interesting about
00:49:27.720 this is we're
00:49:28.420 going to find
00:49:28.880 out if Twitter
00:49:29.900 suppressed the
00:49:31.240 laptop story.
00:49:33.300 I hope, I don't
00:49:35.060 know if this will
00:49:35.680 happen, but
00:49:37.200 imagine this.
00:49:39.820 I don't think
00:49:40.660 this is going to
00:49:41.180 happen, but
00:49:42.680 imagine if
00:49:43.620 Musk can tell 0.76
00:49:46.020 you how
00:49:47.140 individuals were
00:49:48.500 censored.
00:49:48.960 can you
00:49:50.740 imagine that?
00:49:52.100 Could you
00:49:52.620 imagine if I
00:49:53.320 could find out
00:49:54.080 exactly how I
00:49:55.800 was censored?
00:49:57.600 Just imagine
00:49:58.160 that.
00:50:01.020 Heads would
00:50:01.740 explode everywhere.
00:50:03.420 And then let me
00:50:03.960 ask you this.
00:50:05.620 What will the
00:50:06.600 left do when
00:50:07.880 this becomes
00:50:08.440 public, if it's
00:50:09.580 as bad as we
00:50:10.480 think?
00:50:11.120 Now, I don't
00:50:11.600 want to get
00:50:11.960 ahead of the
00:50:12.380 Krakens.
00:50:13.920 I have an
00:50:16.020 unfortunate history
00:50:17.420 of imagination
00:50:18.940 imagining the
00:50:19.420 Krakens will
00:50:20.040 be reproduced
00:50:21.440 and then no
00:50:22.540 Krakens happens.
00:50:23.920 I'm definitely
00:50:24.620 a Krakens
00:50:25.960 non-denier, and
00:50:27.440 that's on me.
00:50:29.100 Yeah, I did
00:50:29.780 expect a Krakens. 0.73
00:50:31.380 Not because I
00:50:32.260 thought there was
00:50:32.780 a problem, because
00:50:33.680 I believed the
00:50:34.280 people who said
00:50:34.800 it was coming, and
00:50:36.020 I didn't know that
00:50:36.660 they were completely
00:50:37.460 non-credible, as
00:50:38.380 it turns out.
00:50:39.460 So that's on me.
00:50:40.900 I should have
00:50:41.220 seen that coming,
00:50:42.860 honestly.
00:50:43.300 But if it
00:50:45.740 happens, how is
00:50:46.460 the left going
00:50:47.300 to handle the
00:50:48.980 fact that all of
00:50:50.160 their badness has
00:50:50.980 been revealed?
00:50:52.360 Here's how I
00:50:53.100 think, and it's
00:50:54.440 already happening,
00:50:55.280 and it goes like
00:50:56.040 this.
00:50:57.280 All of that
00:50:58.180 badness was really
00:50:59.120 goodness.
00:51:00.620 That's what it'll
00:51:01.420 be.
00:51:02.940 Of course we were
00:51:04.220 suppressing Trump,
00:51:06.160 because he called
00:51:08.680 neo-Nazis fine 0.80
00:51:11.000 people.
00:51:11.280 Of course we
00:51:11.800 suppressed him.
00:51:12.760 Obviously.
00:51:13.380 Of course.
00:51:14.560 Yeah.
00:51:15.200 It won't even be
00:51:16.220 embarrassing.
00:51:17.400 It won't be
00:51:17.940 embarrassing.
00:51:19.080 Because they'll
00:51:19.660 say, yeah, we
00:51:20.600 want more of
00:51:21.120 that.
00:51:21.840 People are
00:51:22.400 actually calling
00:51:23.180 for Twitter to
00:51:24.640 return to the
00:51:25.660 rules before
00:51:26.440 Musk.
00:51:27.580 They're asking
00:51:28.460 to go back to
00:51:30.180 what they have to
00:51:30.980 know by now was
00:51:32.500 total censorship.
00:51:34.320 But they
00:51:34.880 believe they were
00:51:35.500 censoring the
00:51:36.060 right people.
00:51:39.100 Now, do you
00:51:41.120 think that
00:51:41.500 Musk has 0.97
00:51:41.960 changed the
00:51:42.500 rules on
00:51:42.980 who's censored?
00:51:45.880 I haven't
00:51:46.600 heard of it,
00:51:47.080 have you?
00:51:48.100 Because I'm
00:51:48.720 hearing people
00:51:49.160 saying, I
00:51:49.740 need Twitter to
00:51:51.020 go back to
00:51:52.360 the old rules.
00:51:54.240 The rules never
00:51:55.120 changed, have
00:51:55.660 they?
00:51:56.280 Did I miss
00:51:56.800 the story?
00:51:58.020 I believe that
00:51:59.080 Twitter has
00:52:00.520 always been
00:52:00.920 anti-hate
00:52:01.740 speech.
00:52:03.300 Anti-hate
00:52:03.980 speech.
00:52:05.760 And if there's
00:52:06.660 misinformation,
00:52:07.860 they'll put a
00:52:08.620 tag on it so
00:52:09.360 you've got some
00:52:09.820 context.
00:52:11.120 It's the same 0.53
00:52:13.240 rules, but
00:52:14.840 people are going
00:52:15.880 to imagine a
00:52:16.800 different experience,
00:52:17.760 right?
00:52:18.180 The left is going
00:52:19.140 to imagine that
00:52:19.980 Twitter turned
00:52:20.740 into a hellhole,
00:52:21.800 even if it
00:52:22.300 doesn't.
00:52:23.220 And the right is
00:52:24.060 going to imagine
00:52:24.560 that the controls
00:52:26.020 were taken off,
00:52:27.200 even if the only
00:52:27.980 thing happening is
00:52:28.820 more conservatives
00:52:29.900 are joining
00:52:30.440 Twitter, so your
00:52:31.960 traffic is going
00:52:32.680 up.
00:52:32.980 And you'll think,
00:52:33.500 oh, it's because
00:52:34.020 the censorship
00:52:34.500 came off.
00:52:35.120 So we're deeply
00:52:36.960 in confirmation
00:52:37.760 bias territory,
00:52:38.720 which is affecting
00:52:40.200 me, right?
00:52:42.020 You're going to
00:52:42.560 see it in real
00:52:43.120 time.
00:52:44.000 If you want to
00:52:44.880 see a rational
00:52:45.520 person who is
00:52:47.320 completely under
00:52:49.020 the spell of
00:52:49.760 confirmation bias,
00:52:51.080 I offer myself,
00:52:52.840 because Twitter is
00:52:54.920 such a confirmation
00:52:55.720 bias generator,
00:52:58.320 that I'm pretty
00:52:59.380 sure I'm going to
00:53:00.020 imagine my
00:53:00.720 experiences changing
00:53:01.700 on Twitter, even
00:53:03.060 if it doesn't.
00:53:04.340 I'm pretty sure
00:53:04.980 I'll imagine it
00:53:05.740 does.
00:53:06.480 Don't you agree?
00:53:07.360 So you're going
00:53:08.020 to get to watch
00:53:08.620 me falling victim
00:53:11.420 to confirmation
00:53:12.280 bias, even when
00:53:13.280 I know it.
00:53:14.280 Even when I know
00:53:15.240 it's going to
00:53:15.660 happen.
00:53:15.920 It's still going
00:53:16.320 to happen.
00:53:16.760 I don't think I
00:53:17.300 have any defense
00:53:17.940 against it.
00:53:18.700 Because you feel
00:53:19.360 the way you feel,
00:53:20.020 right?
00:53:20.380 And then you
00:53:20.860 report it.
00:53:23.460 But I'm at
00:53:24.120 least aware that
00:53:24.940 I'll be wrong.
00:53:29.940 All right.
00:53:30.580 So, what do we
00:53:37.260 think about this
00:53:38.040 yay Fuentes
00:53:39.020 business now?
00:53:41.820 Besides the fact
00:53:42.700 that it'll take
00:53:43.520 Trump out of the
00:53:44.280 race for good,
00:53:45.460 just because the
00:53:46.120 left will make us
00:53:47.200 never forget
00:53:47.840 anything else.
00:53:49.220 I mean, they'll
00:53:49.640 make us think
00:53:50.140 about it forever.
00:53:52.020 Who's Fuentes?
00:53:53.000 Yeah.
00:53:55.320 I don't know.
00:53:55.860 I mean, the fact
00:53:58.060 that these folks
00:54:00.360 all showed up.
00:54:02.220 And by the way,
00:54:04.260 somebody says
00:54:04.780 Kanye is
00:54:05.380 legitimately
00:54:05.980 anti-Semite.
00:54:07.740 It seems like
00:54:08.280 it.
00:54:10.220 You know, Kanye
00:54:11.460 has had plenty
00:54:12.080 of time to
00:54:12.780 soften his
00:54:13.720 opinion or
00:54:15.340 whatever.
00:54:16.020 But at this
00:54:16.540 point, I feel
00:54:17.620 like we can just
00:54:18.300 say he wants
00:54:19.040 us to believe
00:54:19.720 that he is
00:54:21.120 anti-Semitic.
00:54:22.520 Wouldn't you
00:54:22.960 say?
00:54:23.500 He's not telling
00:54:24.280 you he's not.
00:54:25.260 I mean, he does
00:54:26.380 that thing, I 0.97
00:54:27.040 can't be anti-Semitic.
00:54:28.040 Because I'm a Jew.
00:54:29.740 But nobody
00:54:30.360 takes that seriously.
00:54:31.820 It looks like he's
00:54:32.840 putting it out there
00:54:33.540 as that's who he
00:54:34.860 is.
00:54:37.060 Yeah.
00:54:42.280 I don't know.
00:54:42.960 We'll keep an eye
00:54:43.540 on this.
00:54:43.920 It's fun to watch.
00:54:45.440 But do you think
00:54:46.680 that Kanye is
00:54:48.120 or Ye is
00:54:49.020 operating?
00:54:49.860 By the way,
00:54:50.740 if you watch
00:54:51.400 the Tim Pool
00:54:52.680 interview with
00:54:55.180 Ye, or
00:54:56.340 especially the
00:54:57.060 aftermath,
00:54:57.780 because it
00:54:58.120 continued after
00:54:59.080 Ye left and
00:54:59.740 they had sort
00:55:00.660 of a conversation
00:55:01.300 around the table
00:55:01.900 about what
00:55:02.500 they'd experienced.
00:55:03.640 The funniest
00:55:04.380 part about it
00:55:05.180 is watching
00:55:06.080 every member
00:55:06.780 of the table
00:55:07.440 refer to him
00:55:09.080 as Kanye
00:55:09.640 and then have
00:55:10.300 to correct it.
00:55:11.940 And I thought,
00:55:12.920 that is why
00:55:14.660 Ye is Ye.
00:55:15.660 And that's why
00:55:18.080 the performer
00:55:19.900 formerly known
00:55:21.080 as Prince
00:55:21.700 was the performer
00:55:22.840 formerly known
00:55:23.620 as Prince.
00:55:24.640 One of the things
00:55:25.560 that you can do
00:55:26.640 if you're smart
00:55:27.360 enough
00:55:27.680 and you're
00:55:29.720 famous enough
00:55:30.440 is you can make
00:55:31.940 your name
00:55:32.520 really inconvenient
00:55:33.600 for other people.
00:55:36.040 And then you have
00:55:36.940 to spend a whole
00:55:37.540 bunch of time
00:55:38.100 talking about him,
00:55:39.300 like extra time,
00:55:40.700 because you've got
00:55:41.280 to correct the name.
00:55:42.480 So I'm watching
00:55:43.380 the Tim Pool
00:55:44.660 group around the table
00:55:45.860 and every one
00:55:46.980 of them made a point.
00:55:47.840 They're like,
00:55:48.400 well, Kanye,
00:55:49.180 I'm sorry,
00:55:50.320 I mean, Ye.
00:55:51.820 And then,
00:55:52.540 so what Ye did
00:55:53.220 is then,
00:55:53.640 I'm sorry,
00:55:56.060 I apologize.
00:55:57.600 I didn't mean
00:55:58.200 to do that.
00:55:58.860 If you're watching,
00:56:00.100 I meant Ye. 0.95
00:56:01.300 And every one
00:56:02.220 of them had to do it
00:56:02.940 on every comment
00:56:03.820 to the point
00:56:04.500 where it was
00:56:05.300 just ridiculous.
00:56:07.080 And they were,
00:56:08.100 you know,
00:56:08.400 noticing it themselves,
00:56:09.440 of course.
00:56:10.300 But that's one
00:56:12.140 of the ways
00:56:12.580 he draws energy.
00:56:14.160 He gets energy
00:56:14.940 because you have
00:56:15.520 to talk about him
00:56:16.200 more,
00:56:17.080 even to refer to him.
00:56:18.660 Just the simplest thing,
00:56:20.160 you have to put
00:56:20.740 extra energy into it.
00:56:22.040 So he's definitely
00:56:22.780 an energy monster
00:56:23.780 and he knows
00:56:24.800 how to attract it
00:56:25.600 and he knows
00:56:25.960 how to use it.
00:56:26.940 But what's going on now?
00:56:30.500 Does anybody think
00:56:31.600 that what we're seeing
00:56:32.520 with Ye
00:56:33.220 is some form
00:56:36.320 of genius?
00:56:37.620 Or do you think
00:56:38.120 it's mental illness?
00:56:40.120 What would you say,
00:56:40.740 genius or mental illness?
00:56:42.700 Or attention?
00:56:43.840 I guess that would be genius.
00:56:45.940 Performance art?
00:56:47.820 If you say
00:56:48.500 it's performance art,
00:56:49.420 is it genius?
00:56:51.080 Because let's say
00:56:52.060 he intended it
00:56:53.740 to be performance art.
00:56:56.240 You'd have to be insane
00:56:57.400 to think this was
00:56:58.160 going to work.
00:57:00.100 Do you think
00:57:00.800 the divorce broke him?
00:57:03.680 It looks like
00:57:04.500 the divorce broke him,
00:57:05.460 actually.
00:57:06.640 That's what I think.
00:57:08.400 Yeah, I think
00:57:09.120 the divorce actually broke him.
00:57:10.960 I think that everything
00:57:12.060 he cared about in life
00:57:13.320 was his family.
00:57:16.060 And he lost it.
00:57:17.680 And I think
00:57:18.360 he lost everything.
00:57:20.100 And I think that
00:57:21.000 when he gave up
00:57:21.680 his billions of dollars,
00:57:23.120 it's because it didn't mean
00:57:23.900 a fucking thing to him. 0.95
00:57:25.520 And he kind of says
00:57:26.260 that now, right?
00:57:28.140 He was the richest
00:57:29.520 black guy,
00:57:30.620 is that what he was saying?
00:57:31.380 The richest black guy
00:57:32.260 or something?
00:57:33.320 But he lost his family.
00:57:34.540 He had nothing.
00:57:37.920 Like that,
00:57:38.400 I think that's the story
00:57:40.040 of Yeh,
00:57:41.960 is that it looks like
00:57:43.040 he had everything
00:57:43.800 because he had riches
00:57:45.600 and multiple companies
00:57:46.940 and fame
00:57:47.640 and he was beloved
00:57:49.200 and he had a family
00:57:50.420 and he loved them
00:57:51.780 and kids.
00:57:53.020 And then the only part
00:57:54.640 he lost
00:57:55.160 was the family and kids
00:57:57.140 and what did he have left?
00:57:59.720 Nothing.
00:58:00.200 after his family
00:58:02.860 and kids
00:58:03.300 were taken from him
00:58:04.240 or, you know,
00:58:05.580 you could say
00:58:06.360 it was his own fault,
00:58:07.280 whatever.
00:58:07.760 I don't know the difference.
00:58:09.200 But once he lost that,
00:58:10.820 he actually didn't have anything.
00:58:12.800 So he tried God.
00:58:15.120 You know,
00:58:15.560 it looked like
00:58:16.180 he moved his emphasis
00:58:17.120 to religion
00:58:18.400 and it looks like
00:58:19.980 it wasn't enough.
00:58:21.620 He's trying politics
00:58:24.240 and it looks like
00:58:26.380 that's not enough.
00:58:28.180 So, to me,
00:58:29.260 this all looks like
00:58:30.880 mental illness
00:58:32.280 but caused by
00:58:35.080 a specific PTSD.
00:58:37.740 You know,
00:58:38.100 I'm speaking
00:58:38.860 in my layman terms.
00:58:40.700 I'm using all the wrong words
00:58:41.900 for mental illness
00:58:42.680 but you know what I mean, right?
00:58:44.660 I believe he was maybe
00:58:46.620 as all geniuses are,
00:58:49.400 you know,
00:58:49.660 a little bit crazy.
00:58:50.740 Artistic geniuses, anyway.
00:58:52.400 The artistic geniuses
00:58:53.780 tend to be
00:58:54.100 a little bit crazy
00:58:54.860 and a little bit genius
00:58:55.900 at the same time.
00:58:57.180 And I think that
00:58:58.060 the divorce broke him
00:59:00.120 and it just pushed him
00:59:01.400 into the wrong side.
00:59:02.840 That's what it looks like.
00:59:05.220 Because I don't see
00:59:06.160 anything here
00:59:06.660 that looks like
00:59:07.180 a good strategy,
00:59:08.100 do you?
00:59:09.540 If I did,
00:59:10.340 I'd call it out.
00:59:11.440 Like, I'd love to tell you,
00:59:12.920 oh, you're all missing
00:59:13.860 the clever play.
00:59:15.620 You know,
00:59:15.880 if you knew
00:59:16.360 as much as I do
00:59:18.920 about persuasion,
00:59:21.380 you'd see how cleverly
00:59:22.640 he's playing you all.
00:59:23.560 but I don't see that.
00:59:25.720 I see somebody
00:59:26.840 who's working
00:59:27.720 through some problems.
00:59:29.540 That's all,
00:59:30.060 that's what I see.
00:59:31.440 Now,
00:59:33.160 the next part is hard.
00:59:39.120 You know,
00:59:39.760 the way he's treated
00:59:41.840 the anti-Semitism issue,
00:59:46.300 it's very,
00:59:47.640 it's very ugly.
00:59:49.780 And like,
00:59:50.200 I can't be in favor of that.
00:59:51.640 I can't have any empathy
00:59:52.780 for that at all.
00:59:54.180 But at the same time,
00:59:55.120 I have empathy for him.
00:59:57.260 Because to me,
00:59:58.260 I see a victim.
01:00:00.320 And maybe it was a victim
01:00:02.900 that people ganged up on him.
01:00:04.520 You know,
01:00:04.700 maybe his,
01:00:05.420 maybe his trainer
01:00:07.100 who had some kind of
01:00:08.760 weird background
01:00:09.800 and threatened him,
01:00:11.180 we know.
01:00:12.120 Maybe he was part of it.
01:00:14.040 I don't know.
01:00:15.140 But he looks like somebody
01:00:16.520 who was destroyed
01:00:17.560 by people
01:00:18.580 who had an agenda
01:00:19.460 of some sort.
01:00:20.940 Now,
01:00:22.740 you could argue
01:00:23.220 that he wasn't strong enough
01:00:24.360 to avoid that destruction.
01:00:27.820 That's always another way
01:00:28.780 to look at it.
01:00:30.920 But I have empathy
01:00:32.260 for Ye.
01:00:33.940 At the same time,
01:00:35.180 I severely
01:00:36.180 disavow his opinions,
01:00:38.880 which I feel like
01:00:40.000 is the way
01:00:40.540 a president should have
01:00:41.440 approached it.
01:00:42.680 I think a president
01:00:43.560 should say,
01:00:44.320 I have great empathy.
01:00:45.720 It looks like he's
01:00:46.340 going through a tough time.
01:00:47.320 But, you know,
01:00:49.380 still I have to disavow
01:00:50.500 what he said
01:00:51.000 completely.
01:00:53.800 All right.
01:00:59.880 I wonder if everything's,
01:01:01.400 I can't get off
01:01:02.340 of this topic,
01:01:03.000 but I wonder if everything's
01:01:04.100 going to be different
01:01:04.640 after we find out
01:01:05.440 what Twitter actually did.
01:01:07.860 Like,
01:01:08.160 how deep does that go?
01:01:10.560 For example,
01:01:12.160 just as an example,
01:01:13.760 here are the things
01:01:14.420 we might find out.
01:01:16.520 What if we find out
01:01:17.740 what organized groups
01:01:19.940 were organizing trolls?
01:01:22.520 Suppose if you found out
01:01:23.660 who the troll masters are.
01:01:25.640 Like,
01:01:25.940 wouldn't you love
01:01:26.380 to know that?
01:01:27.500 What if we found out
01:01:28.740 how much foreign influence
01:01:30.240 there's been at Twitter?
01:01:33.960 How much do you want
01:01:35.320 to know that?
01:01:37.000 Like,
01:01:37.420 a lot?
01:01:38.660 Yeah.
01:01:39.720 How about
01:01:40.560 our own intel
01:01:41.700 and FBI?
01:01:42.480 How much influence
01:01:44.100 have they had?
01:01:46.280 Has anybody
01:01:47.180 who's not a Twitter employee
01:01:48.740 ever had direct access
01:01:50.920 to cancel people?
01:01:52.860 Wouldn't you like
01:01:53.360 to know that?
01:01:54.460 Wouldn't you like
01:01:55.180 to know if there's
01:01:55.900 any app
01:01:56.660 that allowed
01:01:57.940 any law enforcement
01:01:59.200 or anybody
01:01:59.900 to change
01:02:01.160 a Twitter experience
01:02:02.340 where Twitter
01:02:03.480 didn't even have
01:02:04.060 to approve it?
01:02:04.700 It was just giving
01:02:05.300 somebody else
01:02:05.840 a button to push.
01:02:07.380 Wouldn't you like
01:02:07.860 to know?
01:02:09.120 Because I'll bet
01:02:09.840 somebody did.
01:02:11.080 I'll bet somebody
01:02:12.020 outside of Twitter
01:02:13.200 had a button.
01:02:15.260 It just feels like
01:02:16.120 that's the type of thing
01:02:17.040 we'd find out.
01:02:18.180 I have no evidence
01:02:19.000 of that.
01:02:19.380 It just feels like it.
01:02:21.700 What else
01:02:22.340 are we going to find out?
01:02:25.280 Will we find out
01:02:26.460 that our user accounts
01:02:28.180 are completely artificial?
01:02:31.140 And that,
01:02:31.880 you know,
01:02:32.220 will I find out
01:02:33.320 that of my
01:02:34.100 almost 800,000 followers,
01:02:36.420 what if I find out
01:02:37.340 that half of them
01:02:38.060 are bots
01:02:38.680 for Republicans
01:02:40.380 who thought
01:02:41.080 they liked
01:02:41.540 boosting my signal?
01:02:43.780 Totally possible.
01:02:46.420 Totally possible.
01:02:48.180 Right?
01:02:49.500 Could be.
01:02:51.260 Yeah.
01:02:52.580 I mean,
01:02:53.040 I have no idea
01:02:53.840 how deep
01:02:54.580 this hole is,
01:02:56.160 but wow,
01:02:57.020 am I interested.
01:02:58.500 Now,
01:02:59.260 apparently Apple
01:03:00.160 has threatened
01:03:00.760 Twitter
01:03:01.240 because of
01:03:02.600 this censorship stuff.
01:03:05.140 Apple has threatened
01:03:06.100 to take the Twitter app
01:03:07.440 out of the app store,
01:03:08.720 which would
01:03:09.120 pretty much
01:03:09.980 kill Twitter
01:03:10.520 as a viable business.
01:03:13.200 Do you think
01:03:14.020 that Apple
01:03:14.720 would execute that?
01:03:16.780 Do you think
01:03:17.180 that Apple
01:03:17.640 would drop
01:03:18.180 the nuclear option
01:03:19.880 on Twitter?
01:03:22.060 Because if they do,
01:03:23.260 the reason would be
01:03:24.140 that they say
01:03:25.220 there are too many,
01:03:26.440 too much hate speech,
01:03:27.680 right?
01:03:28.440 So it would be
01:03:28.940 a hate speech thing.
01:03:30.760 Now,
01:03:31.020 isn't this hate speech
01:03:31.960 thing really subjective?
01:03:34.560 Meaning you could say,
01:03:36.240 yes,
01:03:36.460 that's too much
01:03:37.260 hate speech
01:03:37.840 or that's not
01:03:38.460 too much hate speech?
01:03:39.960 Isn't that kind
01:03:40.820 of just an opinion?
01:03:42.080 How much is too much
01:03:43.040 and how much is free speech?
01:03:44.800 Because all free speech
01:03:45.920 has some,
01:03:46.460 you know,
01:03:46.800 hate baked into it.
01:03:50.040 Yeah.
01:03:51.380 So,
01:03:52.060 my first impression
01:03:53.740 was this,
01:03:55.020 that it would be
01:03:55.600 such a suicide play
01:03:57.080 that Apple
01:03:57.620 would never do it.
01:03:58.940 Because if Apple
01:03:59.580 did it,
01:03:59.980 they would lose,
01:04:00.820 I don't know,
01:04:01.520 20% of the customers
01:04:02.840 overnight,
01:04:04.000 something like that.
01:04:04.640 I mean,
01:04:05.480 I would,
01:04:06.360 I'm totally
01:04:07.160 in the Apple universe,
01:04:08.780 but I'd have to think
01:04:09.920 really seriously
01:04:10.720 about dumping them
01:04:11.580 forever
01:04:11.920 if they killed Twitter.
01:04:14.120 Because to me,
01:04:14.860 that would be
01:04:15.180 attack on the Republic.
01:04:17.940 Does it feel like
01:04:18.760 that to you?
01:04:19.500 Sure.
01:04:20.180 And it wouldn't feel
01:04:21.000 exactly like an attack
01:04:22.120 on Twitter users.
01:04:23.820 To me,
01:04:24.220 that would feel like
01:04:24.800 a direct attack
01:04:25.560 on the Republic.
01:04:27.640 That's how I'd take it.
01:04:28.720 To me,
01:04:30.580 that wouldn't look
01:04:31.060 like free market.
01:04:33.080 That wouldn't look
01:04:33.800 like any kind
01:04:34.360 of free market thing.
01:04:35.300 That would look
01:04:35.720 like just the worst thing.
01:04:40.180 So,
01:04:40.560 my first impression
01:04:41.240 was Apple
01:04:41.900 would never take
01:04:42.680 a risk that big.
01:04:44.700 Because they don't
01:04:45.400 take risks like that.
01:04:47.140 That's just not
01:04:47.880 an Apple thing.
01:04:49.780 But here's my second risk.
01:04:52.520 Tim Cook
01:04:53.160 might be the only person
01:04:55.300 in the world
01:04:56.080 who leans Democrat
01:04:58.860 who could stop
01:05:00.680 Musk 0.77
01:05:01.200 from creating
01:05:02.980 free speech.
01:05:04.760 There's only one person
01:05:05.960 who could stop it.
01:05:06.900 Maybe you could argue
01:05:08.000 Google could too.
01:05:10.180 One guy.
01:05:12.340 Do you know
01:05:13.180 how much pressure
01:05:14.060 Tim Cook
01:05:14.640 is going to get
01:05:15.220 from everybody
01:05:16.200 he knows and loves?
01:05:18.240 You don't think
01:05:19.020 the top Democrats
01:05:19.900 have already talked
01:05:20.620 to Tim Cook
01:05:21.240 and said,
01:05:21.640 you know,
01:05:22.520 you know what would
01:05:23.380 make you awesome?
01:05:24.980 You know what would
01:05:25.920 make us love you
01:05:26.800 even more?
01:05:28.660 If you could just
01:05:29.600 do this one thing
01:05:30.460 for us.
01:05:30.920 Just kill Twitter.
01:05:33.200 Yeah.
01:05:34.580 And I think
01:05:36.020 he might actually
01:05:36.660 do it.
01:05:38.140 It's the sort of thing
01:05:39.140 that no rational
01:05:40.000 business person
01:05:40.860 would do.
01:05:41.700 But I don't think
01:05:42.660 we're in rational
01:05:43.440 business person territory.
01:05:44.740 I think we're in
01:05:46.300 virtue signaling territory.
01:05:49.460 And here's what
01:05:50.160 I think might happen.
01:05:51.720 I'm going to make
01:05:52.440 a tentative prediction
01:05:53.760 that if Tim Cook
01:05:56.460 removes Twitter
01:05:58.420 from the
01:05:59.800 Apple store
01:06:01.200 that the board
01:06:03.260 at Twitter
01:06:03.700 is going to
01:06:04.160 remove Tim Cook.
01:06:06.420 That Tim Cook
01:06:06.980 would lose his job
01:06:07.900 for that.
01:06:10.200 Right?
01:06:11.440 Because I would
01:06:12.300 certainly never
01:06:12.860 buy an Apple product
01:06:13.880 while he was still
01:06:14.680 CEO.
01:06:16.120 I wouldn't have.
01:06:16.980 I'd be done.
01:06:18.540 I would say,
01:06:19.640 I'll still buy
01:06:20.460 Apple products,
01:06:21.320 but you've got to
01:06:21.800 get rid of that guy 1.00
01:06:22.560 because I like the
01:06:23.680 products.
01:06:24.080 I don't want to
01:06:24.520 deny myself a good
01:06:25.480 product.
01:06:26.580 I love Apple.
01:06:27.920 I'm a really big
01:06:28.840 Apple fan.
01:06:29.600 I have stock,
01:06:30.520 by the way,
01:06:31.020 so I'm not
01:06:31.840 unbiased.
01:06:32.920 So I love Apple,
01:06:34.320 but if one person
01:06:37.040 decides to attack
01:06:38.300 the Republic,
01:06:40.140 I'm going to act
01:06:41.400 on that pretty
01:06:41.960 quickly.
01:06:44.600 All right.
01:06:45.260 Here is how
01:06:45.920 Twitter can
01:06:46.940 destroy Apple.
01:06:48.160 I also own
01:06:50.500 some Tesla stock,
01:06:52.540 and so,
01:06:54.000 you know,
01:06:54.460 I don't know
01:06:55.620 if I have any
01:06:56.120 indirect benefit
01:06:57.000 from that,
01:06:57.620 but...
01:06:58.640 Your current
01:07:01.800 phone is
01:07:02.720 an absolute
01:07:03.980 piece of shit.
01:07:05.420 Has anybody
01:07:05.720 ever noticed
01:07:06.220 that?
01:07:07.100 Has anybody
01:07:07.520 noticed that
01:07:08.060 your phone
01:07:08.460 is a complete
01:07:09.460 piece of shit?
01:07:11.180 Now,
01:07:11.740 it's a
01:07:12.200 technological
01:07:12.800 wonder,
01:07:13.420 but may I
01:07:16.700 do a skit
01:07:18.440 of me using
01:07:19.900 the worst
01:07:20.500 interface ever
01:07:21.260 designed?
01:07:22.160 Okay.
01:07:23.400 Here's me.
01:07:24.480 I think I'd
01:07:25.480 like to send
01:07:26.880 a message.
01:07:28.700 Step one,
01:07:30.240 find which
01:07:31.020 app to use
01:07:32.100 to send the
01:07:32.660 message.
01:07:34.260 Now,
01:07:35.460 I'm in already,
01:07:36.380 my brain's in
01:07:36.960 the wrong place.
01:07:38.260 The message
01:07:38.840 is in my head.
01:07:40.500 I'm forming
01:07:41.220 the message
01:07:41.720 that I want
01:07:42.100 to send and
01:07:42.580 who I want
01:07:42.940 to send it
01:07:43.300 to,
01:07:43.760 and then I
01:07:44.180 pick up my
01:07:44.600 phone,
01:07:44.920 and the
01:07:45.120 first thing
01:07:45.520 my phone
01:07:45.900 does is
01:07:46.780 make me
01:07:47.160 think about
01:07:47.600 something else.
01:07:50.200 Fail.
01:07:51.660 Failure.
01:07:52.820 My phone
01:07:53.360 should be
01:07:53.660 a blank
01:07:53.960 screen,
01:07:56.000 and there
01:07:57.020 should be
01:07:57.340 no apps.
01:07:58.740 There should
01:07:59.080 be no apps.
01:08:00.360 There should
01:08:00.720 be one AI
01:08:01.840 that guesses
01:08:03.880 what I'm
01:08:04.400 trying to do
01:08:05.100 when I start
01:08:05.760 doing it.
01:08:06.780 I should be
01:08:07.580 able to just
01:08:08.080 do what I
01:08:08.840 want and have
01:08:09.600 the AI guess
01:08:10.420 what I want,
01:08:11.060 what I intended.
01:08:11.920 For example,
01:08:12.580 I would have
01:08:13.720 a blank
01:08:14.120 screen and
01:08:15.160 pick it up
01:08:15.620 and start
01:08:16.060 saying,
01:08:17.500 yes,
01:08:19.160 thank you.
01:08:20.640 Please do
01:08:21.700 buy those
01:08:22.460 groceries we
01:08:23.060 were talking
01:08:23.420 about.
01:08:24.940 And then as
01:08:25.860 I'm writing
01:08:26.220 the message,
01:08:26.800 I want the
01:08:27.180 AI to look
01:08:27.820 at it and
01:08:28.120 say, oh,
01:08:29.300 this person
01:08:29.880 is typing
01:08:30.320 a message.
01:08:31.320 So he
01:08:32.020 doesn't want
01:08:32.660 to consume
01:08:34.340 information.
01:08:35.460 He's in
01:08:36.000 producing mode.
01:08:37.100 So at
01:08:38.040 the top,
01:08:38.700 it would
01:08:39.020 produce all
01:08:39.540 the apps
01:08:40.080 or the
01:08:40.980 directions
01:08:41.820 the message
01:08:42.440 could go
01:08:42.920 from WhatsApp
01:08:44.300 to Telegram
01:08:45.320 to whatever.
01:08:46.680 And then
01:08:46.960 after I
01:08:47.360 make the
01:08:47.680 message and
01:08:48.760 I've done
01:08:49.060 all my
01:08:49.380 thinking,
01:08:50.380 then I'm
01:08:51.120 done thinking
01:08:51.740 and now I
01:08:52.580 say, well,
01:08:53.220 which app
01:08:53.640 did I want
01:08:54.040 to pick?
01:08:55.280 Boop.
01:08:57.980 Here's what's
01:08:58.660 wrong with
01:08:58.960 your phone.
01:09:00.840 It's built
01:09:01.560 for the app
01:09:02.280 makers.
01:09:03.500 Your phone
01:09:04.200 is not
01:09:04.540 built for
01:09:05.060 the user.
01:09:05.720 It's built
01:09:06.260 for the
01:09:06.760 app market.
01:09:08.340 It's built
01:09:08.840 to make it
01:09:09.300 a viable
01:09:10.380 commercial
01:09:10.980 market.
01:09:11.820 To do
01:09:12.240 that, you
01:09:12.780 need apps.
01:09:14.700 Do you
01:09:15.300 need an
01:09:15.660 app?
01:09:16.640 How many
01:09:17.080 of you
01:09:17.340 woke up
01:09:17.780 and said,
01:09:18.160 you know,
01:09:19.220 if only I
01:09:19.820 had an
01:09:20.100 app?
01:09:20.940 No, apps
01:09:21.620 are bullshit.
01:09:22.660 Apps are
01:09:23.060 trouble.
01:09:23.820 Apps are
01:09:24.100 extra work.
01:09:25.280 Apps make
01:09:25.740 you have to
01:09:26.360 sign on
01:09:27.280 again.
01:09:27.820 Apps make
01:09:28.780 your password
01:09:29.340 go away. 0.82
01:09:30.320 Apps can
01:09:30.760 kick you 1.00
01:09:31.180 off the
01:09:31.500 platform.
01:09:32.740 Apps are
01:09:33.180 all the
01:09:33.680 problems.
01:09:35.260 I just
01:09:35.880 want to
01:09:36.180 know what
01:09:36.500 I want
01:09:36.780 to do
01:09:37.080 and start
01:09:37.560 doing it.
01:09:39.400 Now, I
01:09:39.980 might have
01:09:40.300 two choices,
01:09:41.280 either producing
01:09:42.040 or consuming.
01:09:43.960 So if I
01:09:44.400 want to
01:09:44.680 consume, I
01:09:46.040 say, oh,
01:09:46.720 I'm bored.
01:09:47.480 I want to
01:09:47.780 consume.
01:09:48.620 And I
01:09:48.900 can look at
01:09:49.360 some Instagram
01:09:50.220 posts and
01:09:50.880 stuff like
01:09:51.240 that.
01:09:52.260 So I
01:09:52.960 think that
01:09:54.020 the entire
01:09:54.520 interface of
01:09:55.340 phones,
01:09:56.980 somebody,
01:09:58.240 and it
01:09:58.540 could be
01:09:58.900 Elon Musk
01:09:59.420 someday,
01:10:00.240 somebody needs
01:10:00.940 to develop
01:10:01.640 the AI
01:10:02.480 version that
01:10:03.680 just guesses
01:10:04.280 what you
01:10:04.660 want to
01:10:04.960 do and
01:10:05.940 gives you
01:10:06.280 the options
01:10:06.820 but makes
01:10:07.280 you think
01:10:07.740 about it
01:10:08.140 after you've
01:10:08.640 done your
01:10:08.940 work.
01:10:09.900 So you
01:10:10.180 want to
01:10:10.460 work first
01:10:11.260 and then do
01:10:12.560 the details
01:10:13.160 of where
01:10:13.500 that work
01:10:13.900 goes.
01:10:14.860 Does that
01:10:15.280 make sense?
01:10:16.360 How many
01:10:16.860 of you think
01:10:17.420 that the
01:10:18.540 basic model
01:10:19.360 of an
01:10:19.840 app-driven
01:10:20.420 phone,
01:10:21.360 I mean,
01:10:21.580 look at all
01:10:21.820 my fucking 0.64
01:10:22.240 apps.
01:10:24.760 Nobody in
01:10:25.520 the world
01:10:25.900 would have
01:10:26.240 invented this
01:10:26.980 for the
01:10:27.860 consumer.
01:10:29.260 You tell
01:10:29.900 me that
01:10:30.220 there's
01:10:30.460 any
01:10:30.780 user
01:10:31.840 who would
01:10:32.760 say,
01:10:33.040 yeah,
01:10:33.500 here's
01:10:33.840 what I
01:10:34.100 want.
01:10:34.720 I want
01:10:35.040 to have
01:10:35.240 to go
01:10:35.440 search
01:10:35.760 for a
01:10:36.040 fucking
01:10:36.260 app
01:10:36.620 and
01:10:36.820 every
01:10:37.000 time
01:10:37.200 I
01:10:37.300 got to
01:10:37.500 sign
01:10:37.740 up
01:10:38.060 and
01:10:38.200 subscribe
01:10:38.980 and
01:10:39.600 all that
01:10:40.460 bullshit.
01:10:41.300 Here's
01:10:41.660 what I
01:10:41.900 want to
01:10:42.120 do.
01:10:42.780 I want
01:10:43.380 to open
01:10:44.080 up my
01:10:44.400 blank
01:10:44.700 screen
01:10:45.100 and say
01:10:45.720 100
01:10:46.940 plus
01:10:47.900 300
01:10:48.760 and as
01:10:49.740 soon as
01:10:50.080 I type
01:10:50.500 100
01:10:50.940 plus
01:10:51.300 300,
01:10:51.940 I want
01:10:52.240 the AI
01:10:52.740 on my
01:10:53.080 phone
01:10:53.360 to say,
01:10:53.800 oh,
01:10:54.580 he wants
01:10:54.880 a
01:10:55.040 spreadsheet.
01:10:55.940 Boop.
01:10:57.200 And as
01:10:57.800 I'm typing,
01:10:58.840 a spreadsheet
01:10:59.360 appears and
01:11:01.920 now I can
01:11:02.860 just keep
01:11:03.200 going.
01:11:04.500 Because I
01:11:04.880 don't want
01:11:05.360 to pick a
01:11:05.800 spreadsheet,
01:11:06.620 I just
01:11:07.000 want to
01:11:07.240 start working
01:11:07.800 and have
01:11:08.240 the spreadsheet
01:11:08.740 form around
01:11:09.600 me because
01:11:10.340 it's obvious
01:11:10.840 I'm in
01:11:11.380 spreadsheet
01:11:11.720 mode.
01:11:13.560 Right?
01:11:16.420 Why does
01:11:17.520 a document
01:11:18.020 have to be
01:11:18.720 one for a
01:11:19.960 spreadsheet and
01:11:20.580 one for
01:11:20.940 typing?
01:11:23.180 Who does
01:11:23.780 decide that
01:11:24.620 I need a
01:11:25.460 separate app
01:11:26.120 to put a
01:11:26.700 spreadsheet in
01:11:27.420 the middle
01:11:27.760 of my
01:11:28.240 Word document?
01:11:29.340 Not me.
01:11:30.580 If you'd
01:11:30.960 ask me,
01:11:31.740 there would
01:11:33.100 be no
01:11:33.420 apps.
01:11:33.900 I'd just
01:11:34.200 do what
01:11:34.660 I want
01:11:34.920 to do
01:11:35.240 and it
01:11:36.140 all works.
01:11:37.340 So here's
01:11:38.020 the problem
01:11:38.880 that Apple
01:11:39.860 has.
01:11:41.260 Apple and
01:11:41.840 Google are
01:11:42.300 both legacy
01:11:43.040 user interfaces
01:11:44.100 and it
01:11:45.180 would be
01:11:45.420 really,
01:11:46.340 really hard
01:11:46.800 for them
01:11:47.180 to change.
01:11:48.620 But if
01:11:49.200 Musk decides
01:11:49.940 to compete
01:11:50.420 with them,
01:11:51.600 what if he
01:11:52.040 does it
01:11:52.340 without apps?
01:11:53.780 What if
01:11:54.540 he does
01:11:54.820 it with
01:11:55.100 a super
01:11:55.560 AI?
01:11:57.160 And here's
01:11:57.860 what a
01:11:58.100 phone should
01:11:58.520 be.
01:11:59.360 Your phone
01:11:59.840 should have
01:12:00.200 nothing on
01:12:00.680 it but a
01:12:00.980 password and
01:12:01.840 5G.
01:12:03.900 That's it.
01:12:05.100 Just a
01:12:05.500 password and
01:12:07.180 5G.
01:12:08.480 And a
01:12:09.160 minor operating
01:12:10.360 system.
01:12:11.100 But everything
01:12:11.560 else should
01:12:11.960 happen in
01:12:12.320 the cloud
01:12:12.760 through AI
01:12:14.040 and then it
01:12:15.120 should deliver
01:12:15.560 it to you.
01:12:16.340 And when I
01:12:16.700 replace my
01:12:17.360 phone, the
01:12:18.480 phone should
01:12:18.900 cost me like
01:12:19.540 $100.
01:12:19.940 because the
01:12:22.260 phone is
01:12:22.580 just a
01:12:22.940 dumb
01:12:23.220 screen and
01:12:24.580 all the
01:12:24.880 intelligence
01:12:25.320 happens in
01:12:25.880 the network
01:12:26.300 at 5G
01:12:26.940 speed or
01:12:28.220 and through
01:12:29.260 right?
01:12:34.880 How many
01:12:35.560 of you think
01:12:36.080 I'm onto
01:12:36.700 something?
01:12:37.480 Because here's
01:12:39.000 the part I
01:12:39.360 can guarantee.
01:12:41.140 I can
01:12:41.820 guarantee you
01:12:42.540 with 100%
01:12:43.640 certainty that
01:12:45.200 in 100 years
01:12:46.060 there will be
01:12:46.400 no such thing
01:12:47.040 as a
01:12:47.320 smartphone with
01:12:48.060 apps.
01:12:48.420 You'd all
01:12:49.860 agree with
01:12:50.320 that, right?
01:12:51.320 Because there's
01:12:51.800 no way this
01:12:52.320 model is the
01:12:53.320 one that
01:12:53.640 lasts.
01:12:54.640 It's just
01:12:55.240 too stupid.
01:12:57.000 So Musk
01:12:57.860 can put
01:12:58.820 Apple on a
01:12:59.380 business.
01:13:01.800 He can.
01:13:04.580 And the
01:13:05.640 technology to
01:13:06.440 do that only
01:13:07.060 just came
01:13:07.700 online.
01:13:08.340 Because you
01:13:08.840 need 5G
01:13:09.700 or satellites,
01:13:11.560 those are
01:13:12.140 online,
01:13:13.360 and you
01:13:14.580 would need
01:13:15.060 super fast
01:13:15.980 chips so
01:13:17.040 that they
01:13:17.340 could handle
01:13:17.880 a remote
01:13:18.780 processing.
01:13:20.260 And you'd
01:13:20.940 get rid of
01:13:21.360 apps, and
01:13:21.940 AI could
01:13:22.440 get rid
01:13:22.760 of apps.
01:13:23.760 Right?
01:13:25.660 I don't
01:13:26.280 even know if
01:13:26.980 AI would
01:13:27.480 need to
01:13:27.800 build you
01:13:28.200 an app.
01:13:29.400 I think
01:13:29.820 AI could
01:13:30.460 just sort
01:13:31.340 of handle
01:13:32.160 what you
01:13:32.520 needed without
01:13:33.920 you ever
01:13:34.420 being aware
01:13:34.920 that there's
01:13:35.360 something like
01:13:35.920 an app.
01:13:39.180 All right.
01:13:40.040 So if you
01:13:40.880 didn't think
01:13:41.360 that Elon
01:13:41.980 Musk could 0.99
01:13:42.440 put Apple
01:13:43.020 on a
01:13:43.340 business,
01:13:44.320 you actually
01:13:44.840 can't.
01:13:46.240 It would
01:13:46.680 be hard,
01:13:48.020 but there
01:13:48.500 is actually
01:13:49.140 a path
01:13:49.660 where Elon
01:13:50.240 Musk 0.77
01:13:50.560 personally
01:13:51.140 could put
01:13:51.520 Apple
01:13:51.780 on a
01:13:52.040 business
01:13:52.340 with just
01:13:53.900 leapfrogging
01:13:54.520 the technology
01:13:55.200 of the phone.
01:13:56.700 Probably
01:13:57.220 won't happen,
01:13:57.800 yes,
01:13:58.080 probably won't
01:13:58.580 happen.
01:14:02.900 Did you
01:14:03.540 see the
01:14:04.200 Maricopa
01:14:05.720 hearings about
01:14:06.460 the election?
01:14:07.740 Anybody
01:14:08.040 watch the
01:14:08.640 video from
01:14:09.160 that?
01:14:11.200 So in
01:14:12.580 Maricopa,
01:14:13.260 there were
01:14:13.500 public hearings
01:14:14.160 before they
01:14:14.720 certified the
01:14:15.380 election.
01:14:16.080 It was the
01:14:16.560 Cary Lake
01:14:17.180 versus Hobbes
01:14:18.040 one where
01:14:18.460 Cary Lake
01:14:19.040 lost according
01:14:20.380 to the
01:14:20.740 certification.
01:14:22.180 Now they
01:14:22.580 did certify
01:14:23.220 it, but
01:14:23.800 not until
01:14:24.240 listening to
01:14:24.780 the public
01:14:25.300 just rake
01:14:26.460 the officials
01:14:27.120 for what
01:14:27.840 a bad job
01:14:28.400 they did.
01:14:29.440 And when
01:14:29.680 you hear all
01:14:30.600 the anecdotal
01:14:31.560 reports,
01:14:33.420 these are
01:14:33.840 unconfirmed
01:14:34.660 things, it's
01:14:35.340 just people
01:14:35.760 talking, so
01:14:36.940 it's anecdotal,
01:14:38.060 but the
01:14:39.000 anecdotal reports
01:14:39.940 are just
01:14:40.300 vicious.
01:14:40.720 If you
01:14:44.000 hear them
01:14:44.400 out of
01:14:44.720 context,
01:14:45.540 without the
01:14:46.360 officials
01:14:46.820 responding to
01:14:48.220 why it's
01:14:48.580 not such a
01:14:49.140 big problem,
01:14:50.100 if you're
01:14:50.520 out of
01:14:50.840 context, it
01:14:51.480 just sounds
01:14:51.920 like the
01:14:52.220 whole election
01:14:52.800 was just
01:14:53.200 totally,
01:14:53.580 totally just
01:14:55.200 screwed the
01:14:55.700 pooch, like
01:14:56.360 nothing about
01:14:57.060 it was
01:14:57.320 credible.
01:14:58.140 But here's
01:14:58.860 the part
01:14:59.260 that I want
01:15:00.260 to summarize.
01:15:02.300 If you
01:15:03.040 knew that
01:15:04.700 the difference
01:15:05.280 between a
01:15:06.080 Republican and
01:15:06.920 a Democrat
01:15:07.420 victory was
01:15:09.420 how inconvenient
01:15:10.760 it was to
01:15:11.620 vote on
01:15:12.320 election day,
01:15:13.540 because Democrats
01:15:14.460 vote by mail
01:15:15.460 more often,
01:15:16.960 if you could
01:15:17.800 make voting
01:15:18.360 on the day
01:15:19.560 of a little
01:15:20.380 bit inconvenient,
01:15:21.480 wouldn't that
01:15:21.820 be enough to
01:15:22.340 throw the 0.65
01:15:22.680 election?
01:15:23.760 That's all it
01:15:24.240 would take,
01:15:24.620 right?
01:15:25.620 You simply
01:15:26.260 have to make
01:15:26.740 sure that it
01:15:27.220 doesn't go
01:15:27.680 smoothly on
01:15:28.880 the day of,
01:15:29.940 and that's
01:15:30.660 it.
01:15:31.800 Now, you
01:15:32.420 remember those
01:15:32.940 machines that
01:15:33.800 had been
01:15:34.600 tested, and
01:15:35.820 yet it turned
01:15:36.440 out that they
01:15:36.940 were,
01:15:37.420 poorly calibrated
01:15:38.540 for the ink
01:15:39.900 that was on
01:15:40.420 the ballots?
01:15:43.320 Do you
01:15:43.900 think anybody
01:15:44.400 would be
01:15:44.800 smart enough
01:15:45.380 to know
01:15:45.840 that if
01:15:46.980 they tweaked
01:15:47.480 that calibration
01:15:48.320 ahead of
01:15:48.780 time, just
01:15:50.000 make it a
01:15:50.460 little bit
01:15:50.860 below the
01:15:51.420 level, that
01:15:52.440 it might
01:15:52.700 take hours
01:15:53.380 to figure
01:15:53.820 out what's
01:15:54.280 wrong and
01:15:55.300 correct it,
01:15:56.400 and in
01:15:56.820 those hours
01:15:57.420 a lot of
01:15:57.840 Republicans
01:15:58.280 would give
01:15:58.820 up and
01:15:59.180 leave the
01:15:59.520 line?
01:16:01.220 That would
01:16:01.820 be a pretty
01:16:02.580 straightforward
01:16:03.260 prediction,
01:16:04.020 wouldn't it?
01:16:04.600 If we
01:16:05.140 could just
01:16:05.500 make the
01:16:05.860 lines longer,
01:16:06.840 on election
01:16:08.040 day, that's
01:16:08.820 all we
01:16:09.060 need, because
01:16:10.540 people don't
01:16:11.160 have infinite
01:16:11.860 time.
01:16:12.820 They vote
01:16:13.240 during the
01:16:13.620 work day, and
01:16:14.180 some of them
01:16:14.540 just need to
01:16:15.200 say, fuck 0.78
01:16:15.580 it, I'm
01:16:15.820 going home.
01:16:17.140 So it
01:16:19.120 looks to
01:16:19.580 me, without
01:16:22.000 any proof of
01:16:23.120 this, right,
01:16:24.100 it looks to
01:16:24.760 me like the
01:16:25.980 inefficiency was
01:16:27.100 the feature, not
01:16:27.960 the accident.
01:16:29.740 And it's being
01:16:30.560 treated like a
01:16:31.320 feature, not an
01:16:32.020 accident, because
01:16:32.640 they're not trying
01:16:33.120 to fix it.
01:16:35.540 If you saw
01:16:36.300 some big move
01:16:37.220 from Maricopa
01:16:38.440 to say, my
01:16:39.020 God, we've
01:16:40.380 got to change
01:16:40.960 this system,
01:16:42.280 we've got to
01:16:43.260 make sure nothing
01:16:43.980 like this ever
01:16:44.740 happens, so
01:16:45.820 here's what we're
01:16:46.480 going to do to
01:16:46.980 fix all of
01:16:47.580 this.
01:16:48.320 No, no.
01:16:50.000 As far as I
01:16:50.800 know, they plan
01:16:51.400 to run the
01:16:51.880 next election in
01:16:52.920 the same way.
01:16:54.620 I'm just going
01:16:55.380 to guess, but
01:16:56.680 I'll bet you
01:16:57.100 the next election
01:16:57.900 has some long
01:16:58.800 lines and some
01:16:59.840 unexpected technical
01:17:01.260 problems that
01:17:02.600 don't look like
01:17:03.240 any rigged
01:17:03.800 election at
01:17:04.300 all.
01:17:04.580 It's just, hey,
01:17:05.940 it's technology.
01:17:07.680 Technology sometimes
01:17:08.820 is, you know, a
01:17:10.960 little bit tweaked
01:17:12.360 wrong.
01:17:13.340 No big deal.
01:17:14.080 It's sort of
01:17:14.420 normal.
01:17:15.280 You'd expect a
01:17:16.140 few hiccups in
01:17:17.900 exactly the right
01:17:18.740 place.
01:17:20.200 So we got the
01:17:21.340 most problems in
01:17:23.460 the place that
01:17:24.140 would actually
01:17:24.580 change the
01:17:25.260 election.
01:17:27.200 There were other
01:17:28.180 places that had
01:17:28.880 problems, too,
01:17:29.520 but that was
01:17:31.340 kind of a
01:17:31.820 coincidence,
01:17:32.380 wasn't it, that
01:17:33.320 the one place
01:17:34.520 that would
01:17:34.860 definitely change
01:17:36.120 things, that
01:17:37.580 place had little
01:17:38.420 problems, long
01:17:39.220 lines.
01:17:40.720 And as many
01:17:42.500 times as they
01:17:43.140 checked the
01:17:43.600 machines the
01:17:44.200 night before,
01:17:45.480 how weird that
01:17:46.340 they didn't work
01:17:46.940 the very next
01:17:47.580 day.
01:17:48.600 How weird.
01:17:50.160 Yeah.
01:17:52.180 I don't know.
01:17:53.260 Here's my take.
01:17:55.640 Here's my take
01:17:56.540 on the elections.
01:17:59.520 Guilty until
01:18:01.160 proven innocent.
01:18:03.100 Guilty until
01:18:04.100 proven innocent.
01:18:05.360 That's my
01:18:05.980 standard.
01:18:07.500 And to me, they
01:18:08.300 look guilty.
01:18:10.320 So you can, let's
01:18:12.840 see if I get
01:18:13.320 kicked off of
01:18:14.520 social media.
01:18:16.720 YouTube, and
01:18:18.580 whoever is
01:18:20.420 watching me on
01:18:21.000 YouTube and
01:18:21.540 decides whether to
01:18:22.420 monetize me,
01:18:24.100 it is my opinion
01:18:25.020 that the
01:18:26.140 credibility of the
01:18:27.160 last election, is
01:18:29.040 below the level in
01:18:30.220 which you should
01:18:30.760 accept it.
01:18:32.700 Now, I don't
01:18:34.220 have any specific
01:18:35.260 claim about a
01:18:36.240 specific bad
01:18:37.680 shenanigans.
01:18:38.760 I'm just saying
01:18:39.620 that the overall
01:18:40.500 situation with which
01:18:41.660 we've been presented
01:18:42.520 doesn't appear
01:18:44.260 designed to make us
01:18:46.440 believe it.
01:18:48.320 It doesn't seem
01:18:49.440 designed for us
01:18:51.580 to believe it.
01:18:52.800 It's designed for us
01:18:54.080 not to believe it,
01:18:55.140 which causes more
01:18:56.560 problems for
01:18:57.220 Republicans, right?
01:18:58.580 What's the worst
01:18:59.260 case scenario for
01:19:00.180 Republicans?
01:19:01.420 An election they
01:19:02.260 say they don't
01:19:03.180 believe.
01:19:04.440 That was the
01:19:05.180 trap.
01:19:06.240 It's the perfect
01:19:06.880 trap.
01:19:07.780 If we can trap
01:19:08.520 those Republicans
01:19:09.300 into doubting a
01:19:10.260 second election,
01:19:11.820 everybody's going to
01:19:12.560 think that they're
01:19:13.460 not good citizens.
01:19:17.540 So, YouTube, I
01:19:20.020 don't know who
01:19:20.660 did what.
01:19:21.300 I'm making no
01:19:21.900 specific allegations
01:19:23.780 of bad behavior.
01:19:25.480 I'm simply saying
01:19:26.440 that if you look
01:19:27.400 at the design
01:19:28.640 which is
01:19:29.120 intentional, the
01:19:30.640 intentional design
01:19:31.820 is to make it
01:19:34.360 less credible.
01:19:35.940 So, I accept
01:19:37.020 what I've been
01:19:37.500 told.
01:19:38.720 I've been given,
01:19:39.440 the officials have
01:19:40.200 given me a
01:19:40.900 non-credible election
01:19:42.400 by design,
01:19:43.960 intentionally, by
01:19:45.820 design, and so I
01:19:47.420 accept what they've
01:19:48.220 given me.
01:19:48.920 It's not credible.
01:19:49.680 So, I reject the
01:19:51.440 2022 election.
01:19:55.740 In my opinion, I
01:19:58.340 don't have a
01:19:58.800 specific allegation.
01:20:01.300 It was presented to
01:20:02.620 us in a way that we
01:20:04.540 are being told not to
01:20:05.740 believe it.
01:20:06.840 And so, I accept the
01:20:07.700 message.
01:20:09.160 It would be easy to
01:20:10.300 say, here's what we're
01:20:12.880 doing to make you feel
01:20:14.120 more comfortable with
01:20:15.060 the result.
01:20:17.020 But I don't see that.
01:20:18.240 If you had that, I'd
01:20:20.000 say, oh, you're
01:20:21.620 designing the system
01:20:22.600 to make me feel
01:20:23.880 comfortable with the
01:20:24.740 result.
01:20:25.060 I get that.
01:20:25.600 Now, I do feel more
01:20:26.820 comfortable.
01:20:27.840 But if you design it
01:20:29.020 in a way, the design
01:20:31.840 is very clearly to
01:20:33.180 make us less
01:20:33.840 comfortable with the
01:20:34.640 result.
01:20:35.820 Because they know
01:20:36.600 how to do it the
01:20:37.200 other way, right?
01:20:38.740 Do you think there's
01:20:39.420 any doubt among the
01:20:40.540 professionals how to
01:20:42.000 make the election
01:20:42.640 completely unquestionable?
01:20:45.560 Yeah, just paper
01:20:46.400 ballots, count them
01:20:47.320 the same day.
01:20:48.240 Have witnesses.
01:20:49.620 It's easy.
01:20:51.020 There's no question
01:20:51.960 about how to do it.
01:20:53.700 So it's a choice.
01:20:55.340 And it's a choice that
01:20:56.380 both sides appear to
01:20:57.360 be making.
01:20:58.880 So if both sides are
01:21:00.040 making the choice to
01:21:00.880 have non-credible
01:21:02.840 looking elections, you
01:21:04.960 as a consumer should
01:21:05.960 take the message and
01:21:07.140 say, oh, you're
01:21:08.260 presenting us a
01:21:08.940 non-credible election,
01:21:10.120 we'll accept it as a
01:21:11.380 non-credible election.
01:21:12.240 Now, having said that,
01:21:15.720 I agree with certifying
01:21:17.220 it.
01:21:19.200 I agree with
01:21:20.240 certifying it.
01:21:22.200 Same reason I agreed
01:21:23.420 with moving on when
01:21:24.840 Trump allegedly lost in
01:21:26.820 2020.
01:21:28.580 Because you do have to
01:21:29.680 move on.
01:21:31.180 You do have to move on.
01:21:33.300 And that's a separate
01:21:34.320 question from fixing the
01:21:36.320 problem.
01:21:37.000 You have to fix the
01:21:37.740 problem, but sometimes
01:21:39.120 you just have to move
01:21:39.940 on, too.
01:21:42.680 You can redo the
01:21:43.720 election, yeah.
01:21:45.040 No, but we would just
01:21:46.200 be redoing it with a
01:21:47.240 system that's not
01:21:47.980 credible.
01:21:49.880 But do you mind that
01:21:51.940 the vote was maybe
01:21:55.120 not as accurate as it
01:21:57.120 could have been, given
01:21:58.740 that some people may not
01:22:00.040 have participated?
01:22:02.760 Here's why I'm not
01:22:03.700 complaining as much as
01:22:04.700 I could.
01:22:06.060 It was the first thing
01:22:06.960 I said today.
01:22:07.580 I don't think the
01:22:09.040 vote is what matters.
01:22:11.760 I think it's censorship
01:22:13.080 determined the
01:22:14.700 narrative.
01:22:15.300 The narrative
01:22:15.780 determined the
01:22:16.940 opinions.
01:22:17.540 The opinions
01:22:18.000 determined the
01:22:18.760 vote.
01:22:20.020 And pretty much,
01:22:21.620 you know, 90% of how
01:22:23.220 we ended up where we
01:22:24.220 were is from the
01:22:25.760 censorship.
01:22:27.420 Not from anything
01:22:28.780 else.
01:22:29.820 So the vote was
01:22:31.000 important.
01:22:31.640 And it may have been
01:22:32.180 the last straw because
01:22:33.540 it was a close, close
01:22:34.920 election.
01:22:35.260 So it probably did
01:22:36.600 matter just because it
01:22:37.300 was close.
01:22:37.940 But 90% of it was just
01:22:39.460 that the censorship
01:22:40.500 determined what people
01:22:41.620 saw.
01:22:42.520 What people saw
01:22:43.340 determined their
01:22:43.940 opinions.
01:22:44.580 And then they voted on
01:22:45.360 their opinions.
01:22:46.480 So it wasn't actually a
01:22:48.080 inform the public and
01:22:50.480 then the public makes
01:22:51.440 opinions and votes for
01:22:53.100 their representatives.
01:22:54.140 Sort of the way a
01:22:55.020 republic should work. 0.81
01:22:56.600 Nothing like that
01:22:57.300 happened.
01:22:58.840 Nothing like that
01:22:59.520 happened.
01:23:00.520 The brainwashers
01:23:01.640 decided what we would
01:23:02.720 think and then we acted
01:23:04.320 on it.
01:23:04.620 That's all.
01:23:08.240 All right.
01:23:08.860 Do a redo.
01:23:10.100 Yeah, maybe we should
01:23:11.200 have some kind of a
01:23:12.560 standing redo system so
01:23:17.200 you can redo it
01:23:17.900 quickly.
01:23:18.760 Now here's what I'd
01:23:19.520 like to do.
01:23:20.540 I would love to see a
01:23:23.140 survey of how many
01:23:24.860 republicans got out of
01:23:26.240 line.
01:23:27.740 And then separately,
01:23:28.780 how many of them
01:23:29.460 didn't vote in the
01:23:30.600 normal way but maybe
01:23:32.140 had to put their ballot
01:23:33.040 in the special ballot
01:23:34.660 box that didn't have
01:23:36.380 a good chain of
01:23:37.100 custody.
01:23:38.140 So wouldn't you like
01:23:38.920 to know how many
01:23:40.560 republicans got out of
01:23:41.700 line?
01:23:44.540 Because it might be
01:23:45.280 none.
01:23:46.200 It might be none.
01:23:47.240 Because it could be the
01:23:48.020 republicans were just,
01:23:49.120 you know, screw it. 0.81
01:23:50.420 I'm here all day.
01:23:51.240 You're not going to make
01:23:51.820 me get out of line.
01:23:52.660 Because, you know,
01:23:53.080 republicans are pretty
01:23:53.940 much tough characters.
01:23:58.080 Which is exactly why I
01:23:59.440 like them.
01:23:59.780 The thing I like most
01:24:02.220 about conservatives is
01:24:04.940 that when they have a
01:24:05.760 principle, they're really
01:24:07.940 going to stick to it.
01:24:09.160 Like, they're really
01:24:09.840 sticky on principle.
01:24:11.160 And if the principle is
01:24:12.220 you're not going to
01:24:12.880 discourage me from
01:24:13.760 voting, maybe every
01:24:17.080 single republican in the
01:24:18.280 United States stayed in 0.87
01:24:19.280 line as long as it
01:24:20.860 took.
01:24:21.860 It's possible.
01:24:23.140 Because the
01:24:23.920 republicans are not like
01:24:25.000 regular people, right?
01:24:26.540 They're not.
01:24:27.900 They're very stubborn.
01:24:29.780 And they don't like to
01:24:31.160 get, they don't like to
01:24:31.980 get beaten, you know,
01:24:33.380 by a game.
01:24:34.660 You know, they're not
01:24:35.120 going to be, they don't
01:24:36.000 like to be beaten by a
01:24:36.960 magic trick.
01:24:42.640 All right.
01:24:47.240 Thought experiment.
01:24:51.820 Why can anyone do that
01:24:53.100 list of things to
01:24:53.920 succeed, but not anyone
01:24:55.180 can avoid overeating?
01:24:56.640 Oh.
01:24:57.820 Good question.
01:24:58.500 So I told you the
01:24:59.780 things that somebody
01:25:00.660 needs to succeed, and
01:25:02.840 why do I think that
01:25:03.660 somebody has, you know,
01:25:04.520 free will and they can
01:25:05.480 do that thing, when I
01:25:07.460 don't think that people
01:25:08.220 can stop overeating,
01:25:10.880 because they like to
01:25:11.520 eat.
01:25:12.280 And the thing is that
01:25:13.260 eating is an addiction.
01:25:15.360 And addictions are a
01:25:16.680 whole different deal.
01:25:18.100 Right?
01:25:18.860 So if you have an
01:25:19.960 addiction, you have to
01:25:21.100 be in addiction mode to
01:25:22.760 deal with that.
01:25:23.960 But what I was talking
01:25:24.820 about was sort of a
01:25:25.660 non-addiction.
01:25:26.700 You're just a kid and
01:25:27.660 you're trying to figure
01:25:28.260 out your way in the
01:25:29.120 world.
01:25:29.420 There's no addiction
01:25:30.020 involved.
01:25:30.940 So if there's no
01:25:31.520 addiction involved, you
01:25:33.220 can certainly brainwash
01:25:35.300 kids in the direction you
01:25:36.380 want.
01:25:39.520 Make a clip of my mom's
01:25:41.260 useful advice.
01:25:43.540 Hmm.
01:25:45.540 Maybe so.
01:25:47.200 Yeah, maybe so.
01:25:48.560 The trouble is that my
01:25:49.400 mom had that be the best 1.00
01:25:50.680 at one thing advice,
01:25:52.160 which is the opposite of
01:25:54.580 what I ended up doing
01:25:55.780 to good effect.
01:25:59.480 All right.
01:26:01.940 You need a micro lesson
01:26:03.060 on hoarding.
01:26:04.260 Oh.
01:26:05.520 Yeah, maybe I'll do that.
01:26:06.840 Micro lesson on hoarding.
01:26:08.580 You want to stop hoarding,
01:26:09.920 I assume.
01:26:10.620 You don't want a micro lesson
01:26:11.600 on how to hoard more.
01:26:14.100 Yeah, maybe so.
01:26:15.720 That's a good reason.
01:26:16.400 I can reframe that, I think.
01:26:18.420 Let's talk about China.
01:26:21.540 Let's talk about China.
01:26:24.360 You know, there's an
01:26:25.240 interesting thing when I see
01:26:26.700 the aerial views of the
01:26:29.160 protests.
01:26:30.400 So the things that are
01:26:31.300 different, number one,
01:26:33.560 it's not that unusual to
01:26:34.680 have protests in China.
01:26:36.320 What's unusual is that
01:26:37.740 they're countrywide.
01:26:40.100 That's unusual.
01:26:41.300 And they may be bigger,
01:26:43.080 you know, in each individual
01:26:44.480 place than we've seen
01:26:45.820 before.
01:26:46.120 But here's the thing
01:26:49.640 that I'm really taken by
01:26:52.480 when I look at the crowds.
01:26:54.520 So you'll see a big crowd
01:26:55.620 from above, and you'll see
01:26:56.660 the, let's say, the riot
01:26:59.660 police, I guess.
01:27:01.500 They tend to be dressed in
01:27:02.940 all white or police uniforms.
01:27:05.700 And you can see how many
01:27:06.720 police there are, and then
01:27:08.560 you can see the size of the
01:27:10.060 public crowd.
01:27:12.540 And it looks to me like the
01:27:14.220 crowd is more powerful than
01:27:16.100 the law enforcement.
01:27:18.880 Like a lot.
01:27:21.260 And I don't think that the
01:27:23.040 law enforcement wants to open
01:27:24.300 fire and start massacring 0.52
01:27:26.760 people, because that, then the
01:27:28.340 public goes to the next level
01:27:29.640 as well.
01:27:30.620 And I'm watching that, and I'm
01:27:31.900 thinking, it looks like the
01:27:34.640 Indian elephant trainer
01:27:36.880 situation is what it looks like.
01:27:39.100 Let me explain that.
01:27:40.940 I use this example a lot.
01:27:42.620 If you're an elephant trainer,
01:27:45.080 how do you get this gigantic
01:27:46.340 mammal that could crush you, 0.94
01:27:48.440 if it wants to, to follow your
01:27:50.560 orders?
01:27:51.160 How do you make an elephant
01:27:52.300 afraid of you?
01:27:54.000 Like, I always wonder, like,
01:27:55.140 why does the elephant do anything
01:27:56.600 for this little person?
01:27:58.240 Like, it makes sense why your dog
01:28:00.940 does what you want, because you're
01:28:02.140 bigger than your dog, usually.
01:28:04.180 Right?
01:28:04.420 You feed it.
01:28:05.520 But it seems like the elephant
01:28:06.500 would just want to crush you if
01:28:08.300 you beat it with a stick.
01:28:10.660 But the way they do it is they
01:28:12.720 hurt the elephant when it's a
01:28:14.820 baby.
01:28:16.120 So when the elephant is a baby,
01:28:17.680 and it doesn't know how to fight
01:28:18.620 back or anything, the elephant
01:28:20.120 trainer, you know, hits it until
01:28:21.960 the elephant is afraid of the
01:28:23.640 human.
01:28:24.380 And then the human never becomes
01:28:25.900 less afraid of the human.
01:28:27.380 The elephant never does.
01:28:28.500 So the elephant becomes a, you
01:28:30.420 know, big monster, but it still
01:28:32.260 thinks that little human can beat
01:28:33.800 it up.
01:28:34.980 So that never changed.
01:28:36.820 And I feel like the Chinese
01:28:38.840 public is the elephant.
01:28:42.760 Because I watch the number of
01:28:44.680 people there are protesting, and
01:28:47.460 it's a far bigger force than the
01:28:49.620 number trying to stop them.
01:28:51.220 It's not even close.
01:28:53.000 Now, yes, if that force wanted to
01:28:55.340 use firearms, then it's not a fair
01:28:58.660 fight.
01:28:59.460 But if they use the firearms, then
01:29:02.120 the crowd gets bigger, too.
01:29:04.760 Right?
01:29:05.520 So here's what I don't think the
01:29:07.540 Chinese public knows.
01:29:09.960 They have complete control
01:29:11.460 already.
01:29:14.600 The Chinese public has complete 1.00
01:29:16.520 control, and they don't know it.
01:29:20.060 Because if you saw the size of the
01:29:22.040 crowd, they just have to rush the
01:29:24.720 other people.
01:29:25.880 They just have to say, all right,
01:29:27.220 we're going to take you down and
01:29:29.560 just use numbers and just take them
01:29:31.220 out.
01:29:32.720 And I feel like the public, either
01:29:35.320 the public doesn't want to
01:29:36.420 escalate, or they think they don't
01:29:38.720 have the power like the elephant that
01:29:41.020 was abused as a baby.
01:29:42.740 Because they've been abused since
01:29:44.080 birth to do what they're told.
01:29:46.700 And even as rebellious as they are now,
01:29:49.020 which is impressive to watch, I feel
01:29:51.400 like they still don't know how much
01:29:52.680 power they have.
01:29:53.240 I look at it from above, and I say,
01:29:56.220 this is a five-minute problem.
01:29:59.500 People would die, but it's a five-minute
01:30:02.220 problem.
01:30:03.060 Every one of those law enforcement
01:30:05.160 people could be grabbed by a person in
01:30:07.840 the crowd, brought down five minutes.
01:30:12.440 In five minutes, they would own the
01:30:13.700 city.
01:30:14.900 But they're not doing it.
01:30:16.720 Now, here's the question.
01:30:19.540 What would have happened in America?
01:30:21.220 Forget about guns for a second.
01:30:22.680 Just imagine the protesters are unarmed
01:30:26.280 in America.
01:30:27.920 Do you think America would not have
01:30:30.020 already taken down the law enforcement?
01:30:33.680 I think Americans would have already
01:30:35.260 taken them down.
01:30:36.980 Because we're not trained like the
01:30:38.820 elephant.
01:30:40.040 We're trained to think we are in
01:30:42.460 control.
01:30:44.380 Maybe it's one of the things that
01:30:45.940 makes Americans such assholes. 0.69
01:30:48.020 One of the reasons we're assholes is
01:30:49.900 we grow up thinking we're in
01:30:51.080 control, right?
01:30:53.260 We think we have all kinds of power,
01:30:55.040 even if we don't.
01:30:56.600 So if you had a crowd of Americans who
01:30:59.740 were that pissed off, and the number of
01:31:02.520 people who were preventing them from
01:31:04.080 going or doing whatever they were, was
01:31:06.020 that small, this would be so over.
01:31:09.740 The only thing that's keeping China 0.97
01:31:11.820 intact is this psychological thing that
01:31:15.480 keeps the citizens thinking they're
01:31:17.740 weaker than the government, and they
01:31:19.160 are not.
01:31:20.120 Not even close.
01:31:21.600 They are the elephant, and they're
01:31:24.000 just, they don't know they can stomp on
01:31:26.460 the government anytime they want.
01:31:29.840 That's what it looks like.
01:31:32.080 So what this means is, no, I did not
01:31:35.760 forget the Chinese military.
01:31:37.300 I did not.
01:31:37.920 Because I'm calculating here that if
01:31:42.040 China was sent in the military, and they 0.93
01:31:44.840 started killing massive people, which
01:31:46.700 they'd have to do, that the citizens would
01:31:49.560 rise up to an even higher level.
01:31:51.820 Now, in America, that's what would
01:31:53.040 happen.
01:31:54.060 In America, if there were more force brought
01:31:56.440 against the crowd, the crowd would increase
01:31:59.360 their own force, and they would be armed
01:32:01.740 after that point.
01:32:02.620 Now, China can't arm itself, so they've got a 0.97
01:32:06.120 different situation.
01:32:07.220 But they could still take out a small
01:32:09.300 force.
01:32:10.600 Now, my understanding is that the Chinese
01:32:12.280 military is actually smaller than the local
01:32:16.240 community enforcement, because they need lots
01:32:19.180 of local community enforcement relative to how
01:32:22.160 many they need in the military.
01:32:23.140 So, it is possible that if the psychology of the
01:32:30.820 Chinese people changes, and it could. 0.98
01:32:34.180 You could imagine some small event that just
01:32:36.840 changes their psychology.
01:32:38.440 The moment they say, we have decided versus we
01:32:44.120 want, it's all over.
01:32:48.660 The Chinese people have not decided. 0.99
01:32:51.460 They have not.
01:32:52.020 They're expressing a desire.
01:32:55.340 They're expressing a preference.
01:32:58.580 A very strong preference.
01:33:00.460 But if the Chinese people decide, it's a five-minute
01:33:03.940 problem.
01:33:05.100 It's five minutes.
01:33:07.280 They will just destroy whoever is stopping them,
01:33:11.680 and they will just do what they need to do.
01:33:13.420 They'll take care of business.
01:33:15.040 So, there's a very big possibility that China is 0.98
01:33:18.860 teetering on a full revolution, and nothing physical
01:33:25.340 is stopping it from happening.
01:33:27.140 There's no physical thing.
01:33:29.240 Just that little bit of mental switch.
01:33:33.740 And if that switches, all bets are off.
01:33:36.700 Now, I would bet against that happening.
01:33:39.420 I would bet in favor of the Chinese government suppressing 1.00
01:33:42.560 them.
01:33:43.260 It goes back to normal.
01:33:44.700 And the reason is, I think they're so well trained.
01:33:49.240 I think that the conditioning is so deep that they
01:33:52.280 simply will never know their own power, and they won't
01:33:55.600 express it.
01:33:56.140 Now, do Iran. 0.98
01:34:00.760 Iran is different than any situation I'm aware of, because 1.00
01:34:05.980 the women seem to be taking a lead. 0.95
01:34:09.320 Now, maybe I don't have that right, but if there's anybody who
01:34:12.780 has any Iranian connections, can you do me a fact check?
01:34:16.620 Does it still look like the women are taking the lead, and the 0.98
01:34:19.920 men are helping? 0.99
01:34:22.360 Does it look like that?
01:34:23.460 See, once that happens, then we're in unpredictable territory.
01:34:33.440 Because the male-female relationship in Iran is something 0.97
01:34:37.140 we can't fully understand.
01:34:40.000 And we don't really know how much power women have in Iran. 1.00
01:34:44.420 If you listen to anybody who was born there, they'll tell you
01:34:47.400 some version of this.
01:34:49.240 Oh, yeah, the men are totally in control. 0.97
01:34:51.140 The men have all the power.
01:34:52.440 Except at home.
01:34:55.920 Within the house, the matriarch has an unusual amount of power. 1.00
01:35:02.400 But, you know, outside, and if anybody's looking, the men have
01:35:05.120 all the power.
01:35:06.120 Now, I don't know how much of that's true.
01:35:08.640 That's just sort of a thing you hear.
01:35:10.420 But if they really do control the house, who knows?
01:35:14.760 Who knows?
01:35:17.100 Anything's possible.
01:35:20.240 And if Iran goes ahead and does a mass hanging, I think all bets are off. 0.87
01:35:28.940 Apparently, they're going to, or maybe they already have, a public hanging of one of the
01:35:33.560 leaders.
01:35:33.880 And that is like a bad, bad play for Iran. 0.96
01:35:40.160 Doing that in public seems, in 2022, seems like the dumbest thing the leadership could
01:35:45.640 do.
01:35:47.660 To me, it looks like they'd just be begging for their own demise.
01:35:52.860 All right.
01:35:53.420 Did I miss any stories?
01:35:54.460 Is there anything that I should have talked about that I didn't?
01:36:01.600 Would you sell your Apple stock if they banned Twitter?
01:36:04.300 Yes.
01:36:05.200 Yes, I would.
01:36:05.780 If Apple bans Twitter, I'm selling my Apple stock immediately.
01:36:14.120 And not just because of politics, but because I think Musk might take them down.
01:36:22.220 I think he might take them down.
01:36:24.100 If Apple tries to destroy his $44 billion investment, he's not going to leave any weapon
01:36:32.160 unused.
01:36:33.060 That is full war.
01:36:36.660 Do you think Apple wants a full war against Elon Musk?
01:36:39.820 Because that's not fucking around, right?
01:36:42.200 If they take out his $44 billion investment and what he thinks is the only hope for free
01:36:47.680 speech, there will be no weapon that he won't use to fix that situation.
01:36:54.400 And you've never seen Elon unrestrained.
01:36:58.900 I don't even know what that looks like.
01:37:00.960 There's a David Sachs tweet.
01:37:04.100 All right.
01:37:05.460 There's a David Sachs tweet, and that is interesting enough that I'm going to look at it before
01:37:10.100 we go here.
01:37:10.800 Let's find that.
01:37:12.340 Because if you don't know, there are some people whose opinions are just a little more,
01:37:16.640 let's say, a little more persuasive than others.
01:37:19.940 Let's see.
01:37:21.480 Let's see.
01:37:21.640 David Sachs.
01:37:24.720 Let's see what he said.
01:37:28.040 Oh, there we go.
01:37:34.960 You mean the 23 minutes ago?
01:37:36.840 It was 23 minutes ago.
01:37:38.860 David Sachs tweeted, as long as tech, MAGA, Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Amazon.
01:37:46.320 MAGA.
01:37:47.820 M-A-G-A. 1.00
01:37:49.760 Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Amazon.
01:37:52.880 Oh, my God.
01:37:53.700 That's good.
01:37:55.220 Wow.
01:37:55.540 There we go.
01:38:08.080 There we go.
01:38:08.120 And then earlier, 42 minutes ago, David Sachs says, with the possible exception of Microsoft
01:38:16.420 in the late 90s, there's never been a tech monopoly as powerful as Apple.
01:38:21.400 Its power is so feared that few applications companies will dare to criticize Apple publicly,
01:38:25.980 even though almost all privately voiced similar concerns as Elon Musk.
01:38:31.500 Oh, shit.
01:38:32.500 Glenn Greenwald, here David Sachs retweets him, Glenn Greenwald said, there are few things
01:38:40.300 more revealing of an authoritarian mindset than wanting Google and Apple to use their monopoly
01:38:45.880 power to act as internet overlords, dictating who can and can't be heard.
01:38:52.180 Yet that's our situation, and so many seem grateful.
01:38:58.980 Wow.
01:39:02.500 Here's what I think.
01:39:05.180 Tim Scott is not going to pick a fight with some of the most powerful people in Silicon
01:39:11.620 Valley.
01:39:14.480 David Sachs is wonderfully public with both his influence and his opinions.
01:39:23.320 I can tell you for sure that there are powerful people in Silicon Valley who are less public who
01:39:30.280 who would go after Apple pretty hard for this.
01:39:32.840 If Apple tried to take down Twitter, there would be major powers in Silicon Valley who
01:39:41.720 would go after Apple pretty fucking hard.
01:39:44.380 And I would be joining that team immediately.
01:39:48.100 So I think Tim Cook is connected enough and he can read the room well enough to know that this
01:39:58.240 would not be a fight with just their users.
01:40:01.260 You know, this wouldn't be just a public relations problem.
01:40:04.780 This would be a existential threat to Apple.
01:40:09.220 There are people big enough who would just want to wipe them off the map and probably had the power
01:40:14.020 to do it.
01:40:16.480 So my prediction is that Apple will back down.
01:40:21.120 If it was real.
01:40:22.020 I don't know how real it was that Apple was really considering bumping them.
01:40:27.260 I think probably the truth.
01:40:30.380 Probably Apple just did a warning shot across the bow because Apple wants to establish that
01:40:36.680 it's the good person and they're doing the right things.
01:40:39.380 So I think Apple is just positioning so that people will say, oh, Apple's the good one.
01:40:45.080 They said, don't go too far with your, you know, your lack of censorship or we'll have
01:40:49.480 to ban you.
01:40:50.220 So I think it's just a warning shot, which actually is no problem at all.
01:40:55.960 I think everybody should do warning shots if there's something to warn about.
01:41:01.140 So I don't mind a warning shot.
01:41:09.000 Never go to war with a man who owns a rocket company.
01:41:13.460 Yeah.
01:41:14.080 Never go to war with somebody who literally owns a spaceship.
01:41:21.140 That's good advice.
01:41:22.660 Never start a fight with somebody who owns a spaceship.
01:41:26.980 I might tweet that.
01:41:28.120 Maybe one of you could tweet it.
01:41:33.860 All right.
01:41:34.400 That's all I got for today.
01:41:36.460 Did I miss any big stuff?
01:41:41.960 I think I got it all.
01:41:43.600 All right.
01:41:45.840 YouTube and Rumble and everybody else.
01:41:50.900 I'll say goodbye to you, but I'll talk to locals for a few minutes because they're special
01:41:56.100 people.
01:41:56.800 Bye for now.
01:41:58.120 Bye.
01:42:03.780 Bye.
01:42:08.500 Bye.
