Summary

A story about forgetting to put out your garbage, and why you should be grateful you have two weeks worth of it in one week. And a story about the time I accidentally put out 100 pounds of garbage in a single day.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to another highlight of human civilization.
00:00:09.920 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams because it includes both of those things.
00:00:14.320 And if you'd like to take this experience up to a level which nobody can even imagine with their greatest imagination,
00:00:22.100 all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or flask,
00:00:26.580 a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid, I like, coffee.
00:00:31.460 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.
00:00:34.160 It's the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:38.360 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.
00:00:45.040 Oh, yeah. Savor it. Savor it.
00:00:48.780 Well, happy December.
00:00:52.140 I'd like to start with a human interest story about my garbage.
00:00:57.200 Now, you say to yourself, Scott, how interesting could a story about your garbage be?
00:01:03.120 Well, not very, but I'm going to tell you anyway.
00:01:06.960 So I have a garbage anxiety, which the people who watch me livestream on my man cave know.
00:01:13.820 So there's a, on Wednesday night, I have to take my four garbage cans.
00:01:19.680 You know, two of them are from outdoor waste and recycling and blah, blah.
00:01:24.000 So there's four of them, and I've got this long kill of a driveway.
00:01:28.860 So it's kind of a lot of work.
00:01:31.400 Now, I have anxiety about forgetting to do it.
00:01:35.500 Because by Wednesday night, you know, by the time it's after five o'clock in the evening, you know, I start really early, sometimes three or four in the morning.
00:01:43.840 So, you know, that's the end of my day, basically.
00:01:45.960 So I often forget.
00:01:48.400 So I forgot last week, or I got confused because of the holiday.
00:01:51.900 So I got, I had two weeks full of garbage in my garbage cans.
00:01:55.840 Now, the locals platform reacts to my hand gestures, and when I said two, it read peace sign and balloons went off.
00:02:10.860 So that's fun.
00:02:11.780 You can't see that, but if you could, you'd think it was funny.
00:02:15.360 Anyway, so I've got two weeks full of garbage in a one-week can.
00:02:19.240 It's like, it's packed to the top.
00:02:21.040 But I noticed that I had, you know, two garbage cans in case I have these big days of garbage that happen sometimes.
00:02:27.640 And both of them were, well, like one was half full and the other was full.
00:02:31.480 So I reached down by hand and took out these old gnarly garbages and stuffed them into one so that I'd have, you know, one less trip down the driveway.
00:02:42.120 So now I've got garbage that's so heavy I can almost not drag them downhill.
00:02:48.200 They're so heavy.
00:02:49.480 Well over 100 pounds.
00:02:51.860 And there are two of them.
00:02:53.220 I get them down there.
00:02:54.760 And it was, you know, maybe close to 7 o'clock at night.
00:02:59.400 And I had a really hard day, worked really hard, got up really early, been working all day.
00:03:05.160 And my body was really sore.
00:03:07.900 And I thought, you know what?
00:03:09.300 I'm going to do something I never get to do.
00:03:12.180 I'm feeling good because my work's done.
00:03:14.860 My garbage is out to the street.
00:03:16.640 I don't have anything that I have to do the rest of the night.
00:03:19.280 I'm going to draw myself a hot bath.
00:03:22.780 When was the last time you had time to do that?
00:03:26.080 Like the most decadent thing you could possibly do as an adult.
00:03:29.440 As an adult, when do you have time to take a bath?
00:03:32.480 You know, just sit in hot water and have nothing else to do.
00:03:36.500 But this was the first time I could think of, probably in a year, where I just legitimately, I was done with all of my work.
00:03:44.140 And especially done with my garbage, the best part.
00:03:48.280 I could get that in my mind.
00:03:50.900 So I go to fill my bathtub.
00:03:53.960 I'm going to put some Epsom salt in there and really rest my muscles.
00:03:59.320 And then I get a message.
00:04:00.960 Bing!
00:04:03.060 Oh, it's my next door neighbor.
00:04:04.580 Your garbage cans have been hit by a car.
00:04:09.680 Your garbage is strewn all over the street.
00:04:16.460 Now, do you ever think that the universe is just messing with you?
00:04:20.560 And this was actually one of my biggest irrational concerns is remembering to put my garbage out.
00:04:32.280 And of all the times that I put my garbage out, so I've been in this house, I don't know, 15 years or something.
00:04:38.660 So in 15 years of putting the garbage out, I'm the only one who does it every night.
00:04:43.820 Only once, only once in all those years, has it been the most packed that the garbage has ever been packed.
00:04:53.980 Only once.
00:04:56.900 And I actually got on security cameras, I won't be more specific, but I got a good picture of the car taking them out.
00:05:05.120 It didn't stop.
00:05:06.240 Imagine driving at full speed, hitting two objects that are 100 pounds apiece, knocking them all over the street, and continuing on.
00:05:19.760 Yeah, probably drunk.
00:05:21.820 Probably drunk.
00:05:22.940 Maybe drunk, or maybe there were two drivers and one of them was having a better time than the other, if you know what I mean.
00:05:28.820 Like, I like to think of it in a positive way.
00:05:33.080 So that was my evening.
00:05:34.220 But let's get on to other things.
00:05:37.420 Here's one of my topics, visual persuasion.
00:05:41.100 And as I've told you, visual persuasion includes somebody talking and describing something that you imagine visually.
00:05:49.700 So here's Matt Gaetz using amazing visual persuasion, talking about the potential expulsion of George Santos from Congress
00:06:00.300 for whatever behaviors that are boring and I don't care about.
00:06:04.900 But Matt Gaetz says,
00:06:07.420 Whatever Mr. Santos did with Botox or OnlyFans is far less concerning to me than the indictment against Senator Menendez,
00:06:15.920 wait for it,
00:06:17.060 who's holding gold bars from Egypt while he's still getting classified briefings.
00:06:23.540 Now, I think he actually went on to say that the gold bars actually had Arabic on him.
00:06:30.000 So he had gold bars with Arabic writing from Egypt and he's still doing his job.
00:06:36.140 One of the most critical, confidential jobs in all of the world.
00:06:42.780 He's still on the job.
00:06:43.780 But boy, we got to get rid of this George Santos guy because he's told some lies and apparently he may have used some Botox and he looked at porn once.
00:06:56.540 So, got to get rid of that guy.
00:07:00.380 Anyway, the visual persuasion of the gold bars with Arabic on them from Egypt, that is really, really good public speaking.
00:07:09.820 If you don't catch how good that is, just always look for the visual.
00:07:15.820 This is what Trump does.
00:07:17.780 You know, he doesn't say we need border security.
00:07:19.580 He says, build the wall.
00:07:21.620 Because then you imagine the wall.
00:07:23.500 Good technique.
00:07:24.220 So, you know, Twitter's coming under all this great scrutiny for what people are claiming is, you know, bad people on there being matched or identify, let's say, content being paired that shouldn't be paired and all that.
00:07:45.980 But what do you think is happening over at Facebook?
00:07:48.800 So, Facebook is being accused of having too much, I don't even want to say the word, but let's just say if you're not over 18, you know, you know what I mean.
00:08:02.100 So, basically, content of people who are not adults that should not even be legal, which is, you know, paired with advertisements and stuff and fed to kids and all kinds of damn things.
00:08:15.140 And then other people are saying that there's a Palestinian group accusing Meta, the parent company, of unfairly moderating speech because of the Israel-Hamas situation.
00:08:30.120 And I think to myself, is it my imagination or is everything about Facebook feeling old and a date?
00:08:41.280 Like, Facebook doesn't even feel relevant to anything.
00:08:47.080 I know it must be.
00:08:48.720 I mean, it's gigantic.
00:08:50.520 But in my life, it doesn't have any relevance at all.
00:08:54.040 The only time I look is, you know, once every several months I want to maybe check on and see what people are up to.
00:09:02.240 That's it.
00:09:03.420 Like, I never interact.
00:09:05.060 I never comment.
00:09:06.880 It just has no appeal at all.
00:09:08.700 I imagine if you get kids or something, you know, young kids maybe, or you like to show off your vacations.
00:09:15.840 Maybe it's better for that.
00:09:17.300 But Facebook, in 2023, almost 2024, feels like a dinosaur.
00:09:24.580 Whereas the X platform is still so edgy that we're still talking about what it is.
00:09:30.880 You know, we can't even decide what it is.
00:09:32.780 It's changing so quickly and there's so much going on.
00:09:35.860 The X always seems new.
00:09:39.720 So everything about X feels fresh and new.
00:09:43.440 It's about what's happening today.
00:09:45.220 It's, you know, big things that I care about.
00:09:47.880 And Facebook is tiny little things that you shouldn't even see.
00:09:51.220 Like what somebody ate on vacation.
00:09:54.440 And just bullshit, really.
00:09:56.240 I have no idea how Facebook could be a viable product going forward.
00:10:03.240 Now, I do get Instagram and I get WhatsApp.
00:10:06.300 So they have assets that are valuable.
00:10:08.820 But I just don't get the core business at all.
00:10:11.620 Anyway.
00:10:13.980 People are canceling Disney Plus and Hulu, which is owned by Disney,
00:10:18.220 after the dust-up between Elon Musk and his advertisers, including Disney.
00:10:25.840 And I wonder, do you think that Bob Iger knows
00:10:30.920 that Disney doesn't have any modern and good products?
00:10:36.200 Like, it's rare to see a company that is that completely fucked.
00:10:44.780 Completely.
00:10:46.800 Right.
00:10:47.340 Because, so, they own ABC News, right?
00:10:51.900 Do I have that right?
00:10:52.900 Disney owns ABC News?
00:10:54.200 But television news is just the most ridiculous dinosaur in the world.
00:11:03.200 So I wouldn't want any, I wouldn't want to own ABC News or ABC.
00:11:07.960 I wouldn't want to own network news.
00:11:11.060 But I also wouldn't want to own a theme park
00:11:16.300 in which you have to stand for long periods of time for a brief thrill,
00:11:23.200 when most of the kids have a smartphone in their hand
00:11:26.760 and they're looking at their phone
00:11:28.660 and they've got 700 bits of entertainment
00:11:31.660 while they're waiting for your three minutes of going up and down.
00:11:34.800 Whoa.
00:11:35.920 Whoa.
00:11:37.440 I can't even imagine
00:11:39.080 how theme parks could be in existence 10 more years from now.
00:11:45.200 How does it even make sense?
00:11:47.140 I feel as though,
00:11:50.240 you know, maybe virtual reality or something,
00:11:52.160 there'll be something that is just more interesting.
00:11:55.520 But if I were making woke movies nobody wanted to see
00:11:59.200 with dying franchises that I'd mostly killed
00:12:02.520 by my bad decisions about wokeness, usually,
00:12:06.160 there is nothing happening at Disney that looks good.
00:12:11.400 There's nothing happening that looks good.
00:12:13.760 I think Bob Iger's got a problem,
00:12:16.380 the likes of which only China can understand.
00:12:20.940 Only China.
00:12:23.880 We'll talk about that later.
00:12:25.800 Well, I'm loving this story
00:12:27.640 about Trump's valuations
00:12:32.900 and the trial about whether he overvalued his assets.
00:12:36.300 As you know,
00:12:38.620 and Jonathan Turley's writing about this
00:12:40.760 and tweeting about it,
00:12:42.980 imagine that you're the judge
00:12:45.540 and you've already ruled.
00:12:47.800 Keep in mind that the current process
00:12:49.880 is to figure out what the penalty will be.
00:12:52.900 But the ruling is already made.
00:12:55.400 Trump is already guilty,
00:12:57.240 according to this judge,
00:12:58.960 of fraud for inflating his assets.
00:13:01.320 So now the question will be,
00:13:03.660 how big is the penalty?
00:13:05.360 Including taking away their ability
00:13:07.740 to operate their business.
00:13:09.860 At least in New York, I guess.
00:13:12.600 I mean, serious.
00:13:13.800 Like the biggest penalty you could ever imagine.
00:13:16.620 Now, the essence of it
00:13:18.000 is that he did something bad
00:13:20.940 so that the banks were on the other side
00:13:24.420 of that badness.
00:13:25.820 But then the bank itself testified
00:13:28.300 and they said,
00:13:30.620 and keep in mind,
00:13:31.920 this is in the penalty phase,
00:13:33.720 not the trial phase.
00:13:36.500 Right?
00:13:37.260 But in the penalty phase,
00:13:39.620 the testimony debunked the trial.
00:13:43.360 I don't know if I've ever seen that before.
00:13:46.260 Have you ever heard of that?
00:13:48.260 Here's what I mean.
00:13:49.980 So the trial was that
00:13:51.340 Trump did a bad thing
00:13:52.540 by overvaluating assets,
00:13:54.640 and that's fraud.
00:13:56.260 The bank said,
00:13:57.860 and this is just me paraphrasing, right?
00:14:00.280 They didn't say this exactly.
00:14:02.020 The bank said,
00:14:03.420 he was a great customer.
00:14:05.120 We would love to work with him again.
00:14:07.080 Again, I'm paraphrasing.
00:14:08.160 They didn't say it exactly,
00:14:09.180 but the essence of it is yes.
00:14:11.200 Great customer.
00:14:12.460 He was a whale of a customer,
00:14:13.840 the ones we seek out.
00:14:15.380 We made millions of dollars.
00:14:17.360 Would love to do that kind of business
00:14:19.100 with him again.
00:14:20.320 And here's the punchline.
00:14:22.800 We never accept
00:14:24.200 the borrower's word
00:14:26.320 for their assets.
00:14:27.820 That is ordinary business
00:14:29.740 to do our own investigation,
00:14:32.320 which we of course did,
00:14:34.400 and made our own decision
00:14:35.700 about the value of the loan.
00:14:37.540 Apparently, we made good decisions
00:14:39.380 because they were always paid back on time,
00:14:41.860 and we made a profit.
00:14:43.180 Would love to do it again.
00:14:44.320 That's in the penalty phase.
00:14:51.640 Here's a question for you.
00:14:54.240 Why wasn't that in the trial?
00:14:58.540 Probably because it didn't matter.
00:15:00.660 Probably because the judge said,
00:15:02.600 it doesn't matter
00:15:03.300 what the opinion of the bank is.
00:15:05.500 If you lied, you lied.
00:15:07.100 That would be fraud.
00:15:07.860 I assume it's something like that.
00:15:12.360 Because isn't the most critical part
00:15:14.760 of understanding what he did
00:15:16.720 is what the other party
00:15:18.460 to the transaction
00:15:19.400 was thinking about it.
00:15:21.080 What the other party
00:15:22.220 was thinking about it
00:15:23.520 and how they turned out
00:15:24.860 is maybe not the most important thing,
00:15:30.780 but it's pretty close.
00:15:34.180 Well, maybe this is
00:15:35.360 the most important thing.
00:15:36.140 the fact that there's no victim.
00:15:38.840 Not only is there no victim,
00:15:40.400 but the victim would love
00:15:41.700 to have it happen again.
00:15:44.340 Like, please,
00:15:45.300 can you victimize me again, Mr. Trump?
00:15:47.300 And by the way,
00:15:48.020 if everything works out for you,
00:15:49.580 we'd love to do business with you again.
00:15:52.240 Imagine being that judge.
00:15:54.380 Just imagine
00:15:55.420 how faced that judge is right now.
00:15:59.160 That has to be
00:16:00.120 the most embarrassing
00:16:01.100 judicial situation
00:16:03.240 I've ever heard of.
00:16:04.920 Have you ever heard of a judge
00:16:06.020 being embarrassed like that?
00:16:08.960 That is super embarrassing.
00:16:12.860 Wow.
00:16:15.500 And I would like to go further.
00:16:18.940 Now, I've already bragged
00:16:21.680 that because I was a banker,
00:16:24.100 and specifically,
00:16:25.360 I was a loan officer.
00:16:26.760 I was a guy who approved loans
00:16:29.220 to certain kinds of businesses.
00:16:30.440 And I told you early on in this process
00:16:33.600 that the bank isn't going to complain
00:16:35.940 because the bank always does their own checking.
00:16:39.040 No exceptions.
00:16:41.100 You can't be a lender
00:16:42.280 and sometimes take their word for it.
00:16:45.320 That's not a thing.
00:16:47.040 There is no loan ever,
00:16:50.140 ever anywhere,
00:16:52.360 in a traditional bank,
00:16:54.500 ever,
00:16:55.060 not once,
00:16:56.440 where the lender said,
00:16:57.780 you know what?
00:16:58.580 You look like an honest guy.
00:17:00.880 I'm going to take your word for that.
00:17:03.600 Literally,
00:17:04.820 never.
00:17:06.360 Now,
00:17:06.720 a venture capitalist might,
00:17:08.300 if you're a venture capitalist
00:17:09.440 or especially an angel,
00:17:11.440 more an angel than a venture capitalist
00:17:13.180 because venture capitalists
00:17:14.180 are practically bankers.
00:17:15.980 But an angel might say,
00:17:17.300 you know what?
00:17:18.440 I don't know exactly
00:17:19.260 even what you're talking about,
00:17:21.100 but you're such a good manager,
00:17:23.100 I'll just take your word for it.
00:17:24.780 That does happen,
00:17:26.300 but not in a bank.
00:17:29.200 Not ever in a bank.
00:17:31.020 It just doesn't happen.
00:17:32.220 So,
00:17:35.140 now the public knows that.
00:17:36.880 But here's the interesting question.
00:17:39.980 How many criminals do you believe,
00:17:42.960 according to this judge,
00:17:44.780 who says if you exaggerate
00:17:46.360 or lie to your bank,
00:17:48.920 you've committed a crime?
00:17:50.580 If you were to look at
00:17:51.580 the Deutsche Bank loan files,
00:17:55.740 how often would you find
00:17:57.200 that the person asking for the loan
00:17:59.980 had grossly exaggerated
00:18:01.860 the value of one of their assets?
00:18:04.580 How often?
00:18:07.160 A lot.
00:18:09.200 And that's why
00:18:10.400 the bankers were completely unconcerned
00:18:13.440 because it's actually routine.
00:18:17.020 Completely normal.
00:18:18.940 That the...
00:18:20.200 And trust me,
00:18:21.160 I'm not guessing.
00:18:22.640 I've looked at a lot of loans
00:18:24.500 and the first thing you do
00:18:26.320 is you take their estimate
00:18:27.320 and you cut it by half.
00:18:28.860 That's just the most basic
00:18:30.900 banking thing you do.
00:18:31.960 Everybody does it.
00:18:33.600 So,
00:18:34.240 isn't this a case
00:18:36.600 of unequal justice?
00:18:39.160 So, you've got...
00:18:40.440 Let's say you've got
00:18:41.260 a filing cabinet
00:18:42.240 full of loan...
00:18:44.140 You know, loans.
00:18:45.240 You know,
00:18:45.460 obviously it's digital,
00:18:46.620 but just imagine it.
00:18:48.940 And
00:18:49.320 in maybe two-thirds
00:18:52.200 of those loans,
00:18:53.860 the bank didn't believe
00:18:55.160 the asset value
00:18:56.080 and the bank
00:18:57.460 was probably right.
00:18:58.680 The bank was right.
00:18:59.760 The asset value
00:19:00.420 was overstated.
00:19:02.340 Are all those people
00:19:03.420 going to be tried?
00:19:05.800 Are they all going to be
00:19:06.900 put out of business
00:19:07.760 by this judge?
00:19:09.120 How in the world,
00:19:11.120 how in any world,
00:19:13.120 could this stand
00:19:13.980 a Supreme Court review?
00:19:16.240 Like,
00:19:16.760 I'm not even a lawyer
00:19:17.660 or even close to a lawyer.
00:19:20.780 And to me,
00:19:21.540 it's obvious
00:19:22.000 that this can't possibly
00:19:23.240 get through any kind
00:19:24.900 of, you know,
00:19:26.060 higher court approval.
00:19:27.980 How could it?
00:19:29.320 How in the world...
00:19:30.120 Do you think
00:19:30.660 the Supreme Court
00:19:31.400 is going to say,
00:19:32.380 yes,
00:19:33.340 the banker
00:19:34.460 and Trump
00:19:35.560 acted in the most
00:19:36.520 routine way
00:19:37.500 that anybody acts,
00:19:38.940 exactly like
00:19:39.920 two-thirds
00:19:40.940 of their other
00:19:41.700 lenders
00:19:42.820 or their other customers,
00:19:44.740 just like two-thirds
00:19:45.660 of all the customers.
00:19:47.160 But one of them
00:19:47.840 is going to go to jail
00:19:48.680 or one of them
00:19:49.500 is going to lose
00:19:50.040 their business
00:19:50.440 and not go to jail.
00:19:52.060 How does that work?
00:19:53.820 There's not any chance
00:19:55.180 that this can hold up.
00:19:56.720 This is so political.
00:19:58.620 This judge is...
00:20:00.700 How embarrassing.
00:20:02.620 And as you know,
00:20:03.960 Laura Loomer
00:20:04.720 discovered that
00:20:05.720 the judge's wife
00:20:06.820 was posting,
00:20:08.620 you know,
00:20:09.080 F-Trump memes
00:20:10.440 and showing him
00:20:11.420 with a shaved head
00:20:12.240 in a prison suit
00:20:13.160 long before the trial.
00:20:15.740 How in the world
00:20:17.020 does this pass
00:20:18.460 any kind of
00:20:19.020 Supreme Court review?
00:20:20.040 I mean,
00:20:21.040 that alone,
00:20:21.660 well,
00:20:23.300 I don't know
00:20:23.600 how the Supreme Court
00:20:24.380 works on that,
00:20:25.340 but if the Supreme Court
00:20:26.320 knew that his wife
00:20:27.440 was, you know,
00:20:29.140 unambiguously biased
00:20:30.420 against him,
00:20:31.520 how in the world
00:20:32.380 does the Supreme Court
00:20:33.280 say,
00:20:33.780 yes,
00:20:34.080 justice was served there?
00:20:36.100 How in the world?
00:20:37.780 It's absurd.
00:20:41.600 And Trump posted
00:20:42.660 about the judge's wife
00:20:44.140 posting that stuff
00:20:45.360 on Truth Social.
00:20:46.120 All right.
00:20:50.460 In 2018,
00:20:52.540 my stepson died
00:20:55.120 of a fentanyl overdose
00:20:56.200 and I publicly vowed
00:20:58.960 that I would get even
00:20:59.680 with China.
00:21:01.660 Cartels, too.
00:21:03.580 And I told you
00:21:04.220 in 2018
00:21:04.780 I was going to
00:21:06.220 persuade the world
00:21:07.100 that China was
00:21:07.820 unsafe to do business
00:21:09.160 because I believed
00:21:11.880 it was unsafe
00:21:12.740 to do business,
00:21:13.620 but I didn't think
00:21:14.960 people could see it
00:21:15.740 the way I saw it.
00:21:17.260 So I started
00:21:17.920 saying that
00:21:19.080 over and over
00:21:19.660 and over again
00:21:20.180 and
00:21:21.360 the news today
00:21:24.820 from the Wall Street Journal
00:21:25.840 is that
00:21:26.580 five years later
00:21:28.600 China is unsafe
00:21:29.960 for business.
00:21:32.500 And I'll bet you
00:21:33.060 every single company
00:21:34.600 that invested in China
00:21:36.700 a long-term investment
00:21:37.960 in 2018
00:21:39.320 is kind of unhappy
00:21:40.720 that that happened.
00:21:41.480 So
00:21:44.400 do you think
00:21:47.740 that was my prediction?
00:21:50.700 So I made a prediction
00:21:51.780 about the trial,
00:21:53.640 you know,
00:21:53.840 the banking trial
00:21:54.600 with Trump.
00:21:55.440 That was right.
00:21:57.040 And I didn't hear
00:21:57.860 anyone else
00:21:58.480 make that argument,
00:21:59.380 did you?
00:22:00.480 Did you hear
00:22:01.040 anyone else
00:22:02.000 in the public domain
00:22:03.480 make that argument
00:22:04.920 that the bankers
00:22:06.100 would say
00:22:06.520 there's no problem here?
00:22:07.860 I didn't hear it.
00:22:09.040 I think I was
00:22:09.520 the only one.
00:22:11.480 Now,
00:22:12.120 it's not because
00:22:12.560 I'm smart.
00:22:13.680 It's because
00:22:14.420 I was a banker.
00:22:15.800 I always teach you
00:22:16.760 that having
00:22:17.140 a good talent stack,
00:22:18.780 you know,
00:22:18.940 a combination of talents
00:22:20.260 gives you extra
00:22:21.500 vision on things.
00:22:23.300 I happen to be
00:22:24.520 a person who talks
00:22:25.540 about the news
00:22:26.120 every day,
00:22:27.020 but by luck,
00:22:28.800 I was also
00:22:29.360 a lending officer.
00:22:31.000 So I could see this
00:22:32.200 before people could see it.
00:22:33.400 It was obvious.
00:22:36.220 Let's take another one.
00:22:37.400 Montana tried
00:22:39.620 to ban TikTok
00:22:40.520 in their state,
00:22:42.100 but of course
00:22:42.880 a U.S. district judge
00:22:44.840 has blocked the ban,
00:22:47.120 so it will not be banned.
00:22:48.920 What did Montana
00:22:49.840 do wrong?
00:22:51.120 And does it look like
00:22:52.080 something I could have
00:22:52.920 warned them about?
00:22:54.560 If they had listened
00:22:55.440 to me,
00:22:55.840 would they have
00:22:56.160 made this mistake?
00:22:57.680 Well,
00:22:58.120 let me tell you
00:22:58.840 what they got wrong.
00:23:00.040 The reason
00:23:00.940 that Montana gave
00:23:02.120 is data security.
00:23:04.720 Their argument
00:23:07.740 for banning it
00:23:08.520 was not the influence
00:23:09.980 part,
00:23:10.880 which is the actual risk.
00:23:12.960 It was over
00:23:13.740 data security.
00:23:15.260 And the judge
00:23:15.800 just said,
00:23:16.480 you know,
00:23:17.120 they say they can
00:23:17.920 handle the data security.
00:23:19.400 It's kind of an
00:23:19.900 overreach.
00:23:20.980 Free speech.
00:23:24.820 Totally,
00:23:26.160 Montana
00:23:26.640 totally botched this.
00:23:29.000 They should have
00:23:29.820 gone for the influence
00:23:31.100 because it can be
00:23:33.260 demonstrated quite easily.
00:23:35.480 That China controls
00:23:36.820 Chinese companies
00:23:37.840 and the Chinese company
00:23:38.980 has a heat button
00:23:39.760 and even at this moment
00:23:41.780 there's great concern
00:23:43.200 that they may have
00:23:43.880 pushed the heat button
00:23:44.660 on the Gaza situation.
00:23:48.380 And it's not even
00:23:49.340 legal in China.
00:23:50.480 I mean,
00:23:50.800 the argument was so good,
00:23:52.380 so easy,
00:23:53.600 and instead they went
00:23:54.740 for the weakest,
00:23:56.420 dumbest diversion.
00:23:58.960 That it's really
00:23:59.740 about the data security.
00:24:01.680 Now,
00:24:01.900 the data security
00:24:02.580 is not nothing,
00:24:03.340 but it's the least
00:24:05.460 important part
00:24:06.100 of the story
00:24:06.560 by far.
00:24:08.720 So,
00:24:09.320 if Montana
00:24:10.140 had followed my advice,
00:24:11.340 would they do better?
00:24:12.480 Well,
00:24:12.740 they couldn't do worse.
00:24:14.980 They would have had
00:24:15.740 a chance of doing better.
00:24:17.940 All right,
00:24:18.280 here's my next prediction
00:24:19.200 since I'm so good
00:24:20.360 at predicting.
00:24:21.500 Let me tell you
00:24:22.100 what's going to happen
00:24:22.700 with AI and movies.
00:24:25.200 And everybody else's
00:24:26.260 opinion is wrong
00:24:27.080 and mine is right.
00:24:28.840 It goes like this.
00:24:32.300 So,
00:24:32.840 I guess Ridley Scott
00:24:33.720 was saying,
00:24:34.220 you know,
00:24:34.460 AI would just,
00:24:35.820 you know,
00:24:36.480 change everything
00:24:37.240 and he probably thinks
00:24:38.700 that everybody
00:24:39.280 would lose their jobs.
00:24:40.680 I think not.
00:24:42.100 I think what's going
00:24:42.800 to happen is
00:24:43.340 all the same people
00:24:44.260 who make movies,
00:24:45.860 you know,
00:24:46.100 you've got your directors
00:24:47.040 and producers
00:24:47.720 and costumers
00:24:48.900 and your actors
00:24:50.440 and whatnot.
00:24:51.300 So,
00:24:51.520 you've got dozens
00:24:52.460 of trades
00:24:54.180 that come together
00:24:55.520 for it.
00:24:55.940 and here's
00:24:59.220 what I think.
00:24:59.880 I think each
00:25:00.620 of those entities
00:25:01.500 will just use AI
00:25:03.300 to do their part better.
00:25:05.640 Now,
00:25:05.940 the obvious question
00:25:06.880 is why do you need
00:25:07.620 the human?
00:25:09.200 You know,
00:25:09.600 even if you imagine
00:25:11.420 AI is not good enough yet,
00:25:13.940 will it not obviously
00:25:15.340 be good enough,
00:25:16.220 you know,
00:25:16.480 very soon?
00:25:17.320 And I say,
00:25:18.240 nope,
00:25:19.420 because here's what
00:25:20.060 you're missing.
00:25:21.240 If you're not a,
00:25:22.200 this is what those
00:25:23.200 telestack things again,
00:25:24.760 right?
00:25:24.940 I had a good prediction
00:25:27.780 about banking
00:25:28.540 because I was
00:25:30.400 in that job.
00:25:32.020 That's the only reason
00:25:32.720 I had that visibility.
00:25:34.600 I'm also
00:25:35.140 a creator
00:25:36.920 who writes
00:25:38.400 and creates
00:25:38.920 and,
00:25:39.220 you know,
00:25:39.600 does artistic things.
00:25:41.100 So,
00:25:41.680 I'm going to tell you
00:25:42.340 that AI,
00:25:43.580 when it comes
00:25:44.040 to artistic things,
00:25:45.660 has a disadvantage
00:25:46.720 that humans have
00:25:48.500 and I don't know
00:25:49.140 how AI would overcome it
00:25:50.500 just by getting smarter.
00:25:52.980 And it's this.
00:25:53.660 Humans have
00:25:55.120 two brains,
00:25:56.560 minimum.
00:25:57.220 They have several
00:25:58.040 personalities going on
00:25:59.260 in their head
00:25:59.660 all the time.
00:26:00.640 But the two that matter
00:26:01.780 to this conversation
00:26:02.680 are somebody
00:26:04.100 who's pitching an idea.
00:26:05.700 This is you to yourself.
00:26:07.060 You're pitching an idea
00:26:07.960 to yourself,
00:26:08.560 but you're also
00:26:09.660 evaluating it instantly.
00:26:11.860 So you're the pitcher
00:26:12.760 and the catcher.
00:26:14.140 You're the buyer,
00:26:15.580 you're the seller
00:26:16.200 and the buyer.
00:26:17.540 You're the artist
00:26:18.540 and the art critic.
00:26:19.320 So everything you do,
00:26:21.700 you instantly evaluate,
00:26:23.300 but you do it
00:26:24.040 based on
00:26:24.740 this instrument,
00:26:27.820 which is your
00:26:28.480 physical body.
00:26:30.280 And it's the only one
00:26:31.080 that matters.
00:26:32.060 Because having
00:26:32.840 a physical body,
00:26:33.940 which includes your brain,
00:26:35.840 allows you
00:26:36.840 to estimate
00:26:38.200 what somebody else
00:26:39.820 would enjoy.
00:26:41.380 And you can estimate
00:26:42.740 it in real time
00:26:43.780 in a zeitgeist
00:26:47.460 au courant way.
00:26:50.440 Those are my
00:26:51.040 douchebag words.
00:26:53.560 What that means is
00:26:54.560 something that's funny
00:26:56.200 today,
00:26:57.560 and I mean literally
00:26:58.440 today,
00:26:59.040 as in
00:26:59.700 December 1st,
00:27:01.020 2023,
00:27:02.540 won't be the same
00:27:03.700 as what's funny
00:27:05.460 in a month.
00:27:07.120 Do you get that?
00:27:09.120 They won't be the same.
00:27:11.360 What's funny
00:27:12.100 in a month
00:27:12.720 isn't the same
00:27:13.520 as what's funny now.
00:27:14.540 The reason I can guess
00:27:15.840 what's funny today
00:27:16.840 is because I have
00:27:18.640 an instrument.
00:27:20.060 My body
00:27:20.620 is my instrument.
00:27:21.840 I feel it.
00:27:23.400 I feel the zeitgeist.
00:27:24.700 The zeitgeist
00:27:25.280 is the thing
00:27:25.880 everybody's thinking,
00:27:27.340 but maybe
00:27:27.800 nobody's said it yet.
00:27:30.620 How in the world
00:27:31.540 could AI
00:27:32.700 know the zeitgeist
00:27:34.000 when by definition
00:27:35.480 it's the thing
00:27:36.240 that people are thinking,
00:27:37.960 but they haven't said?
00:27:39.820 AI learns
00:27:40.780 from what people
00:27:41.540 have said.
00:27:42.020 It literally
00:27:43.100 is trained
00:27:43.620 on things you said.
00:27:44.900 It is not trained
00:27:45.860 on things
00:27:46.280 you haven't said yet.
00:27:48.480 What's the difference
00:27:49.200 between a good joke
00:27:50.460 and a bad joke?
00:27:52.400 Let's say
00:27:53.040 we're a dad joke.
00:27:54.520 Bad or dad joke.
00:27:56.520 The bad or dad jokes
00:27:57.740 are based on
00:27:58.980 like classical humor.
00:28:01.360 Things which,
00:28:02.520 yeah,
00:28:02.680 I get it.
00:28:03.220 You had the form
00:28:04.420 of a joke.
00:28:05.480 It had an unexpected
00:28:06.720 punchline.
00:28:07.960 It met the criteria
00:28:08.980 of a joke.
00:28:09.660 Yeah,
00:28:09.820 it's pretty good.
00:28:10.300 That's a good
00:28:11.860 dad joke.
00:28:13.640 But,
00:28:14.180 to tell a
00:28:15.880 Chappelle joke,
00:28:18.200 I'll just use him
00:28:19.080 as, you know,
00:28:19.900 top of the game,
00:28:21.340 a Chappelle joke,
00:28:23.520 you think you see
00:28:25.620 it coming
00:28:26.060 and he says
00:28:28.280 something that
00:28:29.120 you were thinking
00:28:30.020 kind of,
00:28:31.360 but you never
00:28:32.040 even put it
00:28:32.580 into words.
00:28:34.620 Right?
00:28:35.380 AI can't do that.
00:28:37.080 There's no way
00:28:37.820 I can do that.
00:28:38.380 And I don't know
00:28:39.300 how it ever could
00:28:40.080 because it can't
00:28:41.400 solve the timing
00:28:42.320 problem of having
00:28:43.820 a human body
00:28:44.620 that's instantly
00:28:45.420 evaluating.
00:28:46.900 So,
00:28:47.480 you know,
00:28:47.800 people always ask,
00:28:48.660 you know,
00:28:48.800 Elon Musk,
00:28:49.560 what's going on
00:28:50.320 in your head?
00:28:51.360 He says,
00:28:51.920 you know,
00:28:52.180 basically it's terrible.
00:28:54.100 There's just too much
00:28:54.760 happening in there
00:28:55.400 and you wouldn't
00:28:56.200 want it if you could.
00:28:58.680 And I can tell you
00:28:59.620 that in my own,
00:29:00.500 my own creative world,
00:29:03.480 you know,
00:29:03.820 since my job
00:29:04.500 is to create.
00:29:06.320 On some days
00:29:07.060 I create
00:29:07.840 12 jokes
00:29:09.660 in one day.
00:29:11.720 You know,
00:29:11.920 I might have
00:29:12.640 one or two
00:29:13.180 in a Dilbert comic.
00:29:15.020 I might write
00:29:16.000 six different jokes
00:29:17.160 in one of my
00:29:17.740 Robots Read News
00:29:18.640 comics.
00:29:19.340 It's a daily comic
00:29:20.180 just for the people
00:29:21.400 on Locals.
00:29:22.740 And then I might
00:29:23.600 make three jokes
00:29:24.800 on the X platform.
00:29:27.280 And then I might
00:29:28.740 be writing something
00:29:29.540 separately
00:29:30.040 that makes the jokes.
00:29:31.520 Do you know
00:29:31.840 how hard it is
00:29:32.520 come up with
00:29:33.080 12 commercial
00:29:34.640 grade jokes a day?
00:29:37.160 It's crazy.
00:29:38.700 That's a crazy
00:29:39.420 level of productivity
00:29:40.500 artistically.
00:29:41.940 And the reason
00:29:42.540 I can do it
00:29:43.300 is that there's
00:29:44.380 a hurricane
00:29:44.920 going on in my head.
00:29:47.180 And my head
00:29:47.740 is always pitching
00:29:48.520 and criticizing.
00:29:50.320 Pitching,
00:29:50.840 criticizing,
00:29:51.320 criticizing.
00:29:51.720 It never stops.
00:29:53.100 I couldn't turn it off
00:29:54.000 if I wanted to.
00:29:55.200 Right?
00:29:55.380 It's just always on.
00:29:56.860 So I don't know
00:29:57.820 how you build
00:29:58.180 an AI to do that.
00:29:59.760 An AI would have
00:30:00.540 to put it out there
00:30:01.340 in the real world
00:30:02.180 and have people
00:30:03.260 react to it.
00:30:04.440 But it wouldn't
00:30:05.140 be able to start
00:30:06.040 with the intuition
00:30:06.960 of how you feel.
00:30:08.780 I start with the
00:30:09.820 intuition of how I feel.
00:30:12.240 How does an AI
00:30:13.040 do that?
00:30:15.520 So,
00:30:16.880 I don't know.
00:30:18.500 I think everybody
00:30:19.060 will have their own
00:30:19.680 little AI.
00:30:20.460 I think the,
00:30:21.000 I think the,
00:30:22.600 the costume,
00:30:25.900 let's say the costume
00:30:26.740 creator,
00:30:28.320 if AI created
00:30:29.440 the costumes,
00:30:30.220 you might say,
00:30:30.800 wow,
00:30:31.000 that was pretty good
00:30:31.540 for AI.
00:30:32.700 But a costume expert,
00:30:35.040 a human,
00:30:36.180 is going to know
00:30:36.980 if it looks like
00:30:38.620 an Academy Award
00:30:40.120 winning costume.
00:30:41.760 Right?
00:30:42.160 The AI is just
00:30:43.160 going to stop
00:30:43.640 when it's good enough.
00:30:44.900 Okay,
00:30:45.200 this is definitely
00:30:45.800 a costume.
00:30:47.120 This fit all
00:30:47.840 the criteria.
00:30:48.820 But the artist
00:30:49.580 is going to push it
00:30:50.660 a little further.
00:30:51.960 The artist is going
00:30:52.840 to say,
00:30:53.040 you know,
00:30:53.840 this isn't what
00:30:54.760 it really would look
00:30:55.600 like in the real world,
00:30:56.560 but I'm just going
00:30:57.840 to tweak this
00:30:59.300 a little bit
00:30:59.780 so it's real
00:31:00.840 but accentuated
00:31:02.000 in a way
00:31:02.460 and that's what
00:31:02.960 makes it special.
00:31:04.360 AI can't do that.
00:31:05.960 Same with directing.
00:31:09.420 Let's take
00:31:10.000 the simplest thing.
00:31:12.100 Let's take
00:31:12.660 the simplest thing
00:31:13.400 of editing.
00:31:14.660 You think,
00:31:15.200 oh,
00:31:15.460 but for sure
00:31:16.080 my AI will do
00:31:17.180 the editing for me.
00:31:18.480 No way.
00:31:19.300 You're going to need
00:31:19.820 a human to tell it
00:31:20.660 if it did it right
00:31:21.340 because they have
00:31:22.300 the attention span
00:31:23.140 that AI doesn't have.
00:31:25.260 All right.
00:31:26.260 Dick Durbin,
00:31:27.280 according to Jesse Waters,
00:31:29.480 either is covering up
00:31:31.140 the motion
00:31:32.620 to have a spina
00:31:33.360 to get the Epstein
00:31:34.120 flight logs
00:31:34.900 or maybe
00:31:36.060 they were just
00:31:37.060 too busy.
00:31:38.860 So,
00:31:39.480 the excuse is
00:31:40.440 they didn't have time
00:31:41.400 but we'll see
00:31:42.360 if it gets done today.
00:31:44.560 But do you think,
00:31:46.820 does it seem weird
00:31:47.600 to you
00:31:47.980 that the Epstein
00:31:48.720 flight logs
00:31:49.700 are not public?
00:31:53.140 years after
00:31:54.180 he's dead?
00:31:56.140 Yeah.
00:31:57.040 Makes you wonder.
00:31:59.580 Now,
00:32:00.040 I've told you
00:32:00.600 that when it comes
00:32:01.560 to the government
00:32:02.060 they are guilty
00:32:03.320 until proven innocent.
00:32:04.980 I would say
00:32:05.520 at this point
00:32:06.160 the weight of evidence
00:32:07.560 suggests
00:32:08.140 that we have
00:32:09.420 a black male
00:32:10.360 based government
00:32:11.260 and maybe
00:32:12.660 other countries
00:32:13.340 as well.
00:32:14.480 Would you say
00:32:15.040 that's a fair assessment
00:32:16.080 of our current government?
00:32:17.920 That it is
00:32:18.520 a black male,
00:32:20.100 fundamentally
00:32:20.780 that's the operating
00:32:21.680 system of the government
00:32:22.660 is black male.
00:32:24.580 Now,
00:32:25.020 it only makes sense
00:32:26.060 because I've told you
00:32:27.640 before
00:32:28.000 I can't see
00:32:28.920 any situation
00:32:29.820 where any company,
00:32:30.940 any country,
00:32:32.100 whether it's
00:32:32.640 the United States
00:32:33.460 or somewhere else,
00:32:34.800 if you have
00:32:35.480 a highly functional
00:32:37.640 intelligence
00:32:38.960 group within
00:32:40.560 your country,
00:32:41.800 eventually
00:32:42.300 they will take
00:32:43.000 over the leadership.
00:32:44.640 There's no way
00:32:45.480 around it.
00:32:46.460 They're trained
00:32:46.960 to do it.
00:32:48.140 They're the type
00:32:48.760 of people
00:32:49.140 who don't mind
00:32:49.760 doing it.
00:32:50.300 somebody's
00:32:51.480 going to take
00:32:51.860 a run at it
00:32:52.560 and somebody
00:32:53.340 will eventually
00:32:53.980 succeed
00:32:54.660 through blackmail.
00:32:56.780 So,
00:32:57.320 if you're a group
00:32:58.720 that knows
00:32:59.600 how to use blackmail
00:33:00.480 and has no moral
00:33:01.340 qualms about
00:33:02.100 any of it,
00:33:03.740 eventually,
00:33:04.780 they're going
00:33:05.800 to run the country.
00:33:06.840 You just don't know
00:33:07.500 if it happens
00:33:07.980 on day one
00:33:08.700 or day a thousand
00:33:10.100 or day a million,
00:33:11.440 but eventually,
00:33:12.500 there's no way
00:33:13.540 it can go
00:33:13.960 any other way.
00:33:14.580 And I would say
00:33:16.860 that the same
00:33:17.440 is probably true
00:33:18.380 for Russia
00:33:19.980 and China.
00:33:22.560 Probably.
00:33:23.560 But,
00:33:24.040 do you know
00:33:24.440 how I think
00:33:25.100 they handle it
00:33:25.940 in Russia
00:33:27.080 and China?
00:33:29.600 That as soon
00:33:30.340 as they get
00:33:30.740 blackmailed,
00:33:31.360 somebody kills them.
00:33:33.720 They just send
00:33:34.540 somebody to kill them.
00:33:35.860 Like,
00:33:36.120 even if you were
00:33:36.720 the one who
00:33:37.280 transmitted the message,
00:33:39.000 like you sat
00:33:39.620 in a room
00:33:39.940 with Xi
00:33:41.260 or Putin
00:33:41.780 and said,
00:33:42.460 you know what?
00:33:42.820 We found out
00:33:43.660 some things about you.
00:33:45.020 You'd be dead
00:33:45.840 before you hit
00:33:46.420 the hallway
00:33:46.820 and anybody
00:33:48.480 who published it
00:33:49.220 would be dead
00:33:49.700 before they ate lunch.
00:33:52.960 So,
00:33:53.320 I think maybe
00:33:54.280 in the totalitarian
00:33:55.240 countries,
00:33:56.780 they can just
00:33:57.600 murder people
00:33:58.400 until they get it done.
00:33:59.760 But,
00:34:01.020 I have this hypothesis
00:34:02.220 that that would
00:34:04.240 also cause
00:34:05.180 China and Russia
00:34:06.340 to have
00:34:07.520 bad
00:34:08.200 intelligence agencies.
00:34:11.320 That,
00:34:11.660 on average,
00:34:12.820 they probably
00:34:14.120 have to kill
00:34:14.700 all their good people
00:34:15.540 because the good people
00:34:16.480 would take over
00:34:16.980 the country
00:34:17.400 if they didn't
00:34:17.840 kill them first.
00:34:19.560 So,
00:34:19.840 it's just a guess.
00:34:21.160 But,
00:34:21.340 I'll bet the
00:34:21.720 Dunning-Kruger
00:34:22.540 incompetence level
00:34:23.820 of the Russian
00:34:24.980 and Chinese
00:34:25.840 intelligence
00:34:27.440 is off the chart.
00:34:29.580 Because,
00:34:30.100 as soon as you've
00:34:30.580 got a good operator
00:34:31.460 in there,
00:34:32.620 the leader
00:34:33.040 would have to
00:34:33.440 kill them.
00:34:35.320 Because,
00:34:35.800 otherwise,
00:34:36.340 that leader
00:34:36.720 would kill them.
00:34:38.300 Basically,
00:34:38.880 you can't,
00:34:39.460 you just can't
00:34:40.020 let somebody
00:34:40.620 capable
00:34:41.820 be in charge
00:34:42.520 of your
00:34:42.820 intelligence
00:34:43.280 or else
00:34:43.720 they'll take
00:34:44.040 over the
00:34:44.320 country.
00:34:45.520 Why wouldn't
00:34:46.100 they?
00:34:47.680 Yeah,
00:34:48.240 most of you
00:34:48.820 would
00:34:49.080 if you had
00:34:49.960 the chance.
00:34:52.120 Yeah,
00:34:52.480 so we know
00:34:52.920 that Hoover
00:34:53.340 was a
00:34:54.100 blackmailer
00:34:55.180 and,
00:34:56.280 why would
00:34:57.080 it change?
00:34:58.320 I can't imagine
00:34:58.940 it would change.
00:35:00.140 So,
00:35:00.680 I'm going to
00:35:00.980 assume that
00:35:01.400 the government
00:35:01.820 is guilty
00:35:02.520 and that
00:35:03.160 the abstinent
00:35:03.820 logs
00:35:04.400 probably are
00:35:05.480 protecting
00:35:06.280 somebody
00:35:06.900 and that
00:35:08.880 it's exactly
00:35:09.500 what it
00:35:09.840 looks like.
00:35:10.980 It's exactly
00:35:11.560 what it
00:35:11.920 looks like.
00:35:13.040 That Epstein
00:35:13.480 was a
00:35:14.180 blackmailer
00:35:15.180 for either
00:35:16.320 our intel
00:35:17.020 or maybe
00:35:18.020 Israel's
00:35:18.680 or somebody
00:35:19.060 else's.
00:35:20.060 Maybe he's
00:35:20.520 probably working
00:35:21.100 for more
00:35:21.480 than one.
00:35:22.540 Anyway,
00:35:23.380 there is
00:35:25.720 rampant
00:35:26.440 speculation
00:35:26.980 that if
00:35:28.420 Trump is
00:35:28.880 nominated,
00:35:30.340 you will
00:35:30.720 pick Tucker
00:35:31.420 Carlson
00:35:31.960 for his
00:35:32.420 VP.
00:35:33.480 How many
00:35:33.840 of you
00:35:34.080 believe that?
00:35:34.700 Do you
00:35:36.140 believe that
00:35:36.680 Trump would
00:35:37.160 pick Tucker
00:35:37.820 Carlson
00:35:38.320 for his
00:35:38.740 VP?
00:35:40.040 I'm going
00:35:40.340 to put
00:35:40.520 the odds
00:35:40.900 of that
00:35:41.180 at zero.
00:35:44.100 Everybody
00:35:44.580 on Locals
00:35:45.200 is saying
00:35:45.540 no.
00:35:46.200 Zero.
00:35:47.460 Because it
00:35:48.100 would bring
00:35:48.480 him more
00:35:48.900 heat,
00:35:49.260 not less.
00:35:52.300 Tucker
00:35:52.820 has his
00:35:53.940 own set
00:35:54.460 of
00:35:55.060 historically
00:35:56.940 huge
00:35:58.620 group of
00:36:00.400 critics.
00:36:01.420 You don't
00:36:01.760 bring that
00:36:02.280 into your
00:36:02.700 campaign.
00:36:03.140 Ben
00:36:04.960 Carson is
00:36:05.600 a ridiculous
00:36:06.080 idea,
00:36:07.140 honestly.
00:36:08.140 There's no
00:36:08.720 way he's
00:36:09.040 going to
00:36:09.200 pick Ben
00:36:09.620 Carson.
00:36:10.340 If he
00:36:10.700 picks Ben
00:36:11.180 Carson,
00:36:11.620 that's like
00:36:11.940 giving up.
00:36:13.940 Ben Carson
00:36:14.660 is like
00:36:15.200 taxidermy
00:36:18.720 more than
00:36:19.320 politics.
00:36:21.380 I need
00:36:22.240 signs of
00:36:22.780 life.
00:36:23.540 When
00:36:23.660 somebody
00:36:24.220 said he
00:36:24.700 was
00:36:24.920 considering
00:36:25.420 Ben
00:36:25.960 Carson,
00:36:26.860 I literally
00:36:27.700 said to
00:36:28.160 myself,
00:36:29.080 he's still
00:36:29.500 alive?
00:36:30.980 I thought
00:36:31.520 he passed
00:36:31.920 away.
00:36:34.540 Then compare
00:36:35.860 that to
00:36:36.740 Vivek or
00:36:38.960 DeSantis in
00:36:39.820 the unlikely
00:36:40.360 case.
00:36:42.900 There are
00:36:43.380 tons of
00:36:43.720 people who
00:36:44.060 would be
00:36:44.180 better than
00:36:45.060 Tucker.
00:36:45.600 Tucker would
00:36:46.020 be awesome
00:36:46.500 and fun,
00:36:47.460 but it
00:36:48.120 wouldn't get
00:36:48.720 Trump elected.
00:36:49.600 All right.
00:36:52.920 Ken Paxton,
00:36:54.160 AG of Texas,
00:36:55.140 is suing
00:36:55.600 Pfizer for
00:36:57.340 misrepresenting
00:36:58.240 COVID-19 vaccine
00:36:59.920 efficacy.
00:37:00.360 conspiracy and
00:37:01.800 conspiring to
00:37:02.940 censor the
00:37:04.620 public discourse.
00:37:06.820 Now, the
00:37:07.660 beauty of this
00:37:08.320 is not that
00:37:08.800 he'll necessarily
00:37:09.460 win on
00:37:10.620 anything, but
00:37:11.860 that it will
00:37:12.420 cause discovery.
00:37:14.580 So at least
00:37:15.280 the legal
00:37:16.020 system will
00:37:16.680 cause Pfizer
00:37:18.740 to tell us
00:37:19.480 everything they
00:37:20.060 know as
00:37:20.880 much as
00:37:21.260 possible.
00:37:22.300 So that
00:37:23.080 can get
00:37:23.400 interesting.
00:37:24.440 Now, I saw
00:37:24.880 a doctor say
00:37:25.580 the other
00:37:25.920 day that it
00:37:27.520 is now well
00:37:28.540 understood,
00:37:29.480 I guess that's
00:37:30.420 debatable,
00:37:31.220 that the
00:37:32.300 vaccine did
00:37:33.620 not work
00:37:34.320 enough to
00:37:36.360 make it
00:37:36.640 worthwhile for
00:37:38.020 any group
00:37:38.780 except, you
00:37:39.620 know, one
00:37:40.020 group with
00:37:40.720 comorbidities.
00:37:42.260 Does that
00:37:43.020 match your
00:37:43.940 opinion?
00:37:44.880 Would you
00:37:45.440 say that
00:37:45.880 there's still
00:37:46.440 one population
00:37:47.720 of people who
00:37:49.040 are over a
00:37:49.480 certain age and
00:37:50.840 maybe had a
00:37:51.380 comorbidity,
00:37:52.340 that they still
00:37:53.460 believe maybe it
00:37:54.720 was better,
00:37:55.280 it was more
00:37:55.680 good than
00:37:56.780 bad, maybe
00:37:58.360 there's bad
00:37:58.860 as well, but
00:38:00.080 is it true that
00:38:01.240 the consensus
00:38:02.100 is that
00:38:03.520 everybody was
00:38:04.320 worse off on
00:38:05.280 average, except
00:38:06.900 for this group
00:38:08.160 of special
00:38:08.760 people above
00:38:09.880 a certain age
00:38:10.620 and with
00:38:11.440 comorbidities?
00:38:13.340 So I'm seeing
00:38:14.160 lots of yeses,
00:38:16.000 seeing lots of
00:38:16.980 yeses, but
00:38:18.140 also some
00:38:18.660 noes.
00:38:20.960 So I guess you
00:38:21.960 could argue what
00:38:22.580 the consensus is,
00:38:23.660 but my
00:38:24.060 understanding is
00:38:24.800 that the data
00:38:25.560 still supports
00:38:27.180 the idea that
00:38:27.900 there was this
00:38:28.580 specific group of
00:38:29.800 people who
00:38:30.180 benefited on
00:38:31.000 average.
00:38:33.940 Isn't it
00:38:34.480 amazing that we
00:38:35.160 would disagree on
00:38:35.940 this?
00:38:37.480 I don't know
00:38:38.160 what's true, by
00:38:38.740 the way.
00:38:39.940 I don't know
00:38:40.380 what's true.
00:38:41.000 I do know that
00:38:41.600 doctors say that
00:38:42.520 there's one group
00:38:43.560 that probably came
00:38:44.200 in ahead.
00:38:45.100 Now, the
00:38:46.340 reason I ask is
00:38:48.000 because I'm in
00:38:48.640 that group, but
00:38:51.680 I don't know if
00:38:52.180 it's true.
00:38:53.380 Maybe we'll find
00:38:54.220 out if it's
00:38:54.600 true from this
00:38:55.100 lawsuit, but
00:38:56.240 maybe, maybe.
00:39:00.900 And I just
00:39:01.600 point out that
00:39:02.160 most of the
00:39:02.640 people who
00:39:03.180 mock me, because
00:39:04.740 I got the first
00:39:05.800 two shots, I
00:39:06.820 didn't get any
00:39:07.260 boosters after
00:39:07.880 that, but I
00:39:08.700 got the first
00:39:09.180 two, I'm in
00:39:10.900 that group.
00:39:12.720 I'm dead in the
00:39:14.300 center of the
00:39:15.140 comorbidity because
00:39:16.160 I have asthma,
00:39:17.320 which at the
00:39:18.160 time they thought
00:39:18.660 was a comorbidity.
00:39:20.760 I'm not sure it
00:39:21.540 is, but it can't
00:39:22.720 be good to have a
00:39:23.340 lung infection and
00:39:24.060 asthma at the
00:39:24.580 same time.
00:39:25.700 So, yeah, I
00:39:28.500 don't know.
00:39:29.520 Just keep that in
00:39:30.460 mind.
00:39:30.980 Keep an eye on
00:39:31.560 it.
00:39:33.480 There's a
00:39:34.340 Dutch political
00:39:37.300 commentator,
00:39:38.980 Eva
00:39:39.340 Vlardinger-Brook,
00:39:41.880 Vlardinger-Brook,
00:39:43.100 and she's
00:39:45.380 talking out, speaking
00:39:46.660 out about the
00:39:47.260 climate, climate
00:39:48.500 scam.
00:39:49.740 By the way, I
00:39:52.620 remember climate
00:39:54.240 change used to be
00:39:55.460 the thing that was
00:39:56.040 always trending on
00:39:57.120 the old Twitter, and
00:39:58.900 now what trends is
00:39:59.720 climate scam.
00:40:02.180 Climate scam is
00:40:03.780 trending on at
00:40:05.020 least my version of
00:40:06.780 it almost every day.
00:40:08.160 So it feels like
00:40:10.020 there's been like
00:40:11.180 a sort of a
00:40:13.380 quiet but
00:40:14.760 major shift.
00:40:16.980 I mean, when
00:40:17.360 Bill Gates came
00:40:18.160 out and said,
00:40:19.200 yeah, the
00:40:19.620 temperature might
00:40:20.200 go up, but we'll
00:40:20.740 handle it, I
00:40:22.680 felt like that was
00:40:23.800 when it all fell
00:40:25.080 apart.
00:40:26.620 At least the,
00:40:27.740 you know, you're
00:40:28.100 all going to die
00:40:28.640 from climate change
00:40:29.520 messaging.
00:40:30.340 I think it all
00:40:30.840 fell apart.
00:40:31.820 And then when
00:40:32.620 people realized
00:40:33.700 that nuclear power,
00:40:35.640 with all of its
00:40:36.600 problems, was a
00:40:38.300 probable solution
00:40:39.600 to a lot of
00:40:40.680 our problems, that
00:40:41.900 took away a lot
00:40:42.600 of the energy,
00:40:44.700 because we had a
00:40:45.940 solution.
00:40:46.500 We just had to
00:40:47.020 use it.
00:40:48.040 It takes all the
00:40:48.720 energy out of it.
00:40:50.000 So I think that
00:40:50.960 the momentum, or
00:40:54.320 the, let's say,
00:40:55.800 the natural swing
00:40:57.440 of the pendulum,
00:40:58.140 is that the scam
00:40:59.460 will be trending
00:41:00.200 more than, hey,
00:41:01.880 everything's falling
00:41:02.680 apart.
00:41:04.320 But I want to
00:41:05.240 tell you what
00:41:05.920 this Dutch
00:41:06.600 political commentator
00:41:07.620 who I noticed
00:41:08.720 follows me on X,
00:41:09.800 so might be
00:41:10.340 listening right now,
00:41:11.780 and saying, get to
00:41:12.680 it.
00:41:12.860 What are you going
00:41:13.220 to say about me?
00:41:14.660 So in case you're
00:41:15.340 listening, Eva, so
00:41:19.120 she said recently,
00:41:21.880 talking about the
00:41:23.420 climate scam, so
00:41:24.520 to speak, quote,
00:41:25.620 the people behind
00:41:26.360 this want to
00:41:26.960 establish a one
00:41:27.840 world government,
00:41:29.100 a new world
00:41:29.700 order, in which
00:41:30.360 they decide what
00:41:31.080 we eat, when we
00:41:32.840 eat, where we
00:41:34.040 travel, when we
00:41:35.360 travel, who we
00:41:36.380 meet, and what
00:41:37.040 we're allowed to
00:41:37.600 spend our money
00:41:38.060 on, basically
00:41:39.120 control over every
00:41:40.240 single aspect of
00:41:41.200 our lives.
00:41:42.180 They don't want
00:41:42.900 us to eat foods
00:41:43.540 that make us
00:41:43.960 strong.
00:41:44.420 They want us to
00:41:44.840 eat synthetic
00:41:45.380 meat created by
00:41:46.640 Bill Gates.
00:41:47.700 They want us to
00:41:48.280 eat bugs.
00:41:49.420 They want us to
00:41:49.980 drink soy milk so
00:41:51.020 that we'll become
00:41:51.600 weak and obedient,
00:41:52.940 and we do as
00:41:53.560 they say.
00:41:55.880 Does that sound,
00:41:57.040 I want to get a
00:41:57.840 reading of the
00:41:58.740 audience.
00:42:00.100 Is that a good
00:42:01.140 summary of reality?
00:42:02.660 How many would
00:42:04.140 say, yeah, that
00:42:04.940 sums it up.
00:42:06.380 I'm saying spot
00:42:07.240 on, yes, yes,
00:42:08.300 yes, kind of, yes,
00:42:10.040 yes, yes, yes,
00:42:10.940 yes, yes, yes,
00:42:12.560 yes, yes, yes.
00:42:13.100 So, that's right
00:42:14.820 down the middle of
00:42:15.540 what my audience
00:42:16.860 believes, right?
00:42:18.220 I don't believe any
00:42:19.180 of that.
00:42:20.480 I don't believe any
00:42:21.380 of it.
00:42:23.280 Because the
00:42:24.120 motivation part
00:42:25.420 doesn't really make
00:42:26.560 sense.
00:42:28.320 Like, I can't
00:42:29.200 imagine there's
00:42:29.720 somebody in the
00:42:30.180 room saying, if
00:42:31.660 only we can get
00:42:32.860 them to eat
00:42:33.340 bugs and soy
00:42:35.860 milk.
00:42:37.900 Do you think
00:42:38.500 there's really
00:42:38.960 somebody having
00:42:39.520 that conversation
00:42:40.300 behind closed
00:42:41.080 doors?
00:42:43.480 Really?
00:42:44.760 Let me try the
00:42:45.820 really.
00:42:47.120 You think there's
00:42:47.880 really somebody
00:42:48.540 behind closed
00:42:49.300 doors who is
00:42:50.880 planning to make
00:42:51.720 humans eat bugs,
00:42:54.220 but, hold on,
00:42:55.300 they're planning to
00:42:55.860 make humans eat
00:42:56.540 bugs, but not
00:42:57.820 because they're
00:42:58.280 planning to make
00:42:58.800 money.
00:42:59.920 You're saying
00:43:00.500 that it's more
00:43:01.200 of a philosophy.
00:43:05.880 Really?
00:43:10.340 I don't believe
00:43:11.080 any of that.
00:43:13.840 Here's why I
00:43:14.460 don't believe it.
00:43:15.140 Let me give you
00:43:15.600 a reason.
00:43:17.180 It's poor form
00:43:18.920 to say I just
00:43:19.600 don't believe it.
00:43:21.040 I need to make
00:43:21.780 my case,
00:43:22.400 wouldn't you say?
00:43:23.380 I haven't made
00:43:23.980 my case.
00:43:25.120 Here's my case.
00:43:26.840 Every bit of it
00:43:27.640 can be explained
00:43:28.360 by incompetence
00:43:29.260 plus greed.
00:43:31.620 That's it.
00:43:33.400 Yeah.
00:43:34.000 You can explain
00:43:34.740 all observations
00:43:35.740 by incompetence
00:43:36.960 plus somebody
00:43:37.800 wants to make
00:43:38.220 some money.
00:43:39.540 That's it.
00:43:40.740 Now, on top of
00:43:41.460 that, I do think
00:43:42.240 there are some
00:43:42.940 people who have
00:43:44.760 some idea of how
00:43:45.600 the world would
00:43:46.220 be better,
00:43:47.580 Bill Gates being
00:43:48.220 one of them.
00:43:49.540 But to imagine
00:43:50.520 that Bill Gates,
00:43:52.800 if he wanted to
00:43:53.680 do all these
00:43:54.220 things, do you
00:43:55.300 think he would
00:43:55.740 be conspiring
00:43:56.480 with other people,
00:43:57.380 or would Bill Gates
00:43:58.960 want to be the
00:43:59.460 one who's in
00:43:59.940 charge?
00:44:01.780 So here's what's
00:44:03.560 logically wrong
00:44:04.660 with the thing.
00:44:06.360 It imagines that
00:44:07.620 there are all
00:44:07.980 these powerful
00:44:08.640 people who are
00:44:10.600 on the same
00:44:11.100 page.
00:44:13.300 Have you ever
00:44:13.940 met powerful
00:44:14.540 people?
00:44:15.740 The one thing
00:44:16.480 you can always
00:44:17.140 say about powerful,
00:44:18.160 successful people
00:44:18.980 is they're never
00:44:20.240 on the same
00:44:20.700 page.
00:44:21.700 They're never
00:44:22.300 on the same
00:44:22.760 page.
00:44:23.740 The thing that
00:44:24.540 makes them
00:44:24.920 powerful and
00:44:25.540 successful is the
00:44:27.100 thing that says
00:44:27.720 I've got a
00:44:28.240 better idea
00:44:28.760 than you have
00:44:29.340 and that never
00:44:30.420 turns off.
00:44:31.800 Do you think
00:44:32.180 Bill Gates is
00:44:33.700 Bill Gates and
00:44:34.980 then when he
00:44:35.340 gets in a
00:44:35.780 meeting, people
00:44:37.840 push him around
00:44:38.720 and tell him
00:44:39.180 what to think?
00:44:40.400 I don't think
00:44:41.200 so.
00:44:42.380 So unless you
00:44:43.220 can find out
00:44:43.820 that there's
00:44:44.200 one powerful
00:44:44.960 person in
00:44:45.620 charge and
00:44:46.660 everybody else
00:44:47.220 is bowing to
00:44:47.980 them for some
00:44:48.660 obvious reason,
00:44:49.560 like fear or
00:44:50.440 money or
00:44:50.820 something, none
00:44:52.260 of it makes
00:44:52.660 sense.
00:44:53.540 There's no
00:44:54.020 model of human
00:44:54.860 behavior in which
00:44:56.200 the most
00:44:57.380 powerful people
00:44:58.360 by coincidence
00:45:00.020 are all part of
00:45:01.660 this major
00:45:02.260 scheme and
00:45:03.300 they all have
00:45:03.640 the same idea
00:45:04.320 about how to
00:45:04.760 run it.
00:45:05.640 Because the
00:45:06.180 real world,
00:45:07.500 anything you do
00:45:08.340 that changes the
00:45:09.140 real world,
00:45:10.200 will create
00:45:11.040 winners and
00:45:12.060 losers.
00:45:13.380 Let's see if you
00:45:14.060 agree with that
00:45:14.580 first.
00:45:15.320 Any major
00:45:16.140 change to the
00:45:17.020 whole system of
00:45:17.800 the world,
00:45:18.300 which is what
00:45:18.760 we're talking
00:45:19.160 about, a
00:45:19.820 major, major
00:45:20.540 change, will
00:45:21.780 destroy some
00:45:22.820 people, completely
00:45:24.040 put them out of
00:45:24.580 business, but
00:45:25.900 some other
00:45:26.380 people might
00:45:26.920 be able to
00:45:27.280 rise.
00:45:29.580 So do you
00:45:30.100 think that this
00:45:30.840 big collection of
00:45:31.720 bankers and
00:45:32.860 Bill Gates and
00:45:34.100 the World
00:45:35.760 Economic Forum
00:45:36.720 and all these
00:45:37.920 heads of
00:45:38.340 industries, do
00:45:39.640 you think that
00:45:40.100 they all, you
00:45:41.820 believe they're
00:45:42.260 all working
00:45:42.720 together in this
00:45:43.400 big elite thing,
00:45:44.580 do you believe
00:45:44.980 all those elites
00:45:45.920 think that they
00:45:47.120 would individually
00:45:48.040 be better off?
00:45:49.800 That's insane.
00:45:54.680 There's no real
00:45:55.700 world analogy
00:45:57.380 where you've
00:45:57.960 ever seen that
00:45:58.540 happen anywhere.
00:46:00.720 Even the
00:46:01.420 government of
00:46:02.380 every country,
00:46:03.480 let me take the
00:46:04.180 simplest example.
00:46:07.040 Pick any
00:46:07.780 country that's
00:46:08.720 a democracy,
00:46:10.660 well not even a
00:46:11.620 democracy, pick
00:46:12.660 any country,
00:46:14.040 look at their
00:46:14.740 elected leaders,
00:46:16.260 and you tell
00:46:16.700 me, all on the
00:46:18.420 same page, why
00:46:21.180 doesn't Congress
00:46:22.160 and the United
00:46:22.580 States collude so
00:46:24.580 that everyone in
00:46:25.400 Congress comes
00:46:26.960 off good and
00:46:28.260 maybe at the
00:46:28.780 expense of the
00:46:29.440 rest of the
00:46:29.780 public, but why
00:46:30.340 don't they do
00:46:30.780 that?
00:46:31.480 Why are they
00:46:32.240 against each
00:46:32.820 other and
00:46:34.060 fighting like
00:46:34.780 crazy?
00:46:35.440 Even Republicans
00:46:36.520 fight Republicans,
00:46:37.720 Democrats fight
00:46:38.420 Democrats, why?
00:46:40.520 But you believe
00:46:41.720 that although
00:46:43.080 every example in
00:46:44.820 the history of
00:46:45.460 humanity, every
00:46:46.620 example, the
00:46:48.120 powerful people
00:46:48.980 are actually
00:46:49.940 opposed to each
00:46:50.660 other, every
00:46:52.040 time, but this
00:46:53.300 is the first
00:46:53.880 exception, and
00:46:55.600 it's also the
00:46:56.180 biggest thing
00:46:56.720 ever, and
00:46:57.820 that all the
00:46:58.900 elites are kind
00:47:00.380 of on the same
00:47:01.000 page, if we can
00:47:01.740 get them to eat
00:47:02.400 bugs, they'll
00:47:03.840 buy more oil, or
00:47:05.600 whatever it is.
00:47:06.760 If we can get
00:47:07.480 them to eat bugs,
00:47:08.680 then we'll be
00:47:10.140 able to raise
00:47:10.680 their taxes?
00:47:12.480 If we can get
00:47:13.400 them to have
00:47:14.300 enough soy, they
00:47:15.920 won't, my own
00:47:18.140 military won't be
00:47:19.160 able to fight, I
00:47:20.840 don't think soy
00:47:21.420 does that to
00:47:21.980 you, but none
00:47:24.320 of this tracks.
00:47:26.460 None of this
00:47:27.040 makes sense, even
00:47:28.480 in a general
00:47:30.000 directional sense.
00:47:32.480 None of it
00:47:32.860 makes sense.
00:47:33.520 Because it
00:47:34.060 assumes something
00:47:34.760 about human
00:47:35.360 behavior that's
00:47:36.920 absurd.
00:47:38.560 What is the
00:47:39.220 thing that you
00:47:39.720 always say about
00:47:40.820 why Marxism and
00:47:42.540 socialism doesn't
00:47:43.440 work?
00:47:45.580 Sometimes we
00:47:46.340 say it creates
00:47:47.140 dictators, but
00:47:48.280 the real reason
00:47:49.000 is that it
00:47:50.220 ignores human
00:47:51.200 behavior.
00:47:53.740 Humans are
00:47:54.420 very predictable.
00:47:56.540 If you say,
00:47:57.400 you know what,
00:47:58.320 if you work
00:47:59.000 harder than
00:47:59.540 your peers,
00:48:00.920 you're not going
00:48:01.680 to get anything
00:48:02.200 extra, but you'll
00:48:03.440 get to share what
00:48:04.240 you made with
00:48:04.780 everybody.
00:48:05.960 Will people work
00:48:06.840 as hard as if
00:48:08.220 you say, hey,
00:48:09.060 you're going to
00:48:09.420 be a superstar,
00:48:10.680 and you'll be
00:48:11.220 better than
00:48:11.600 everybody, and
00:48:12.180 you'll have more
00:48:12.600 stuff if you
00:48:13.140 work hard,
00:48:13.960 there's no
00:48:14.940 question which
00:48:15.500 one works.
00:48:17.040 The reason
00:48:17.580 capitalism makes
00:48:18.540 more stuff than
00:48:19.920 socialism or
00:48:21.000 communism is that
00:48:22.960 it's just a
00:48:23.340 better system.
00:48:24.880 But suddenly,
00:48:26.560 suddenly, an
00:48:28.180 entire 100,000
00:48:29.240 years of
00:48:29.900 consistent human
00:48:30.840 behavior suddenly
00:48:32.420 changed because
00:48:34.040 of the World
00:48:34.820 Economic Forum
00:48:35.680 and climate
00:48:36.800 change or
00:48:37.260 something.
00:48:38.200 Now, there
00:48:38.560 isn't any
00:48:39.160 chance, there
00:48:40.620 isn't any
00:48:41.200 chance that
00:48:41.780 there's anybody
00:48:42.400 plotting to
00:48:43.560 make you drink
00:48:44.100 soy milk and
00:48:45.000 eat bugs.
00:48:46.600 The people who
00:48:47.520 want you to
00:48:47.900 eat bugs, if
00:48:49.380 they exist, are
00:48:51.420 probably two
00:48:52.620 types.
00:48:53.320 There's somebody
00:48:53.820 in the bug-eating
00:48:54.700 business who
00:48:55.740 wants to make
00:48:56.220 money, so
00:48:57.600 they're seeding
00:48:58.860 the media with
00:48:59.840 stories, and
00:49:00.560 they're trying to
00:49:01.680 get it in.
00:49:04.420 So there's
00:49:04.880 clearly a commercial
00:49:06.460 factor here,
00:49:08.040 obviously.
00:49:08.620 nothing gets
00:49:10.000 this much
00:49:10.400 attention unless
00:49:14.000 somebody's tried
00:49:14.560 to make money
00:49:15.060 off it.
00:49:16.160 The news
00:49:16.660 doesn't just
00:49:17.200 tell you what's
00:49:17.720 interesting, they
00:49:18.920 tell you what
00:49:19.480 somebody who
00:49:20.020 makes money
00:49:20.560 wanted them to
00:49:21.300 say.
00:49:21.740 That's how it
00:49:22.180 works when it's
00:49:23.580 about commerce.
00:49:26.920 And, yeah, if
00:49:29.940 you don't
00:49:30.540 understand, and
00:49:31.820 then on the
00:49:32.800 other side, people
00:49:33.620 like the World
00:49:34.180 Economic Forum,
00:49:35.040 there are
00:49:36.180 people who
00:49:36.680 like to tell
00:49:37.300 you the
00:49:37.760 interesting thing
00:49:38.740 that they heard
00:49:39.400 that's in the
00:49:39.880 news, maybe it's
00:49:41.320 futuristic, maybe
00:49:42.440 it's forward-looking.
00:49:43.720 So some people
00:49:44.280 like to talk
00:49:44.860 about the
00:49:45.600 potential of
00:49:46.320 things to come.
00:49:47.860 Well, it
00:49:48.140 doesn't mean they
00:49:48.880 need it or want
00:49:50.120 it, or it's the
00:49:50.780 only thing that
00:49:51.340 could happen, or
00:49:52.060 they're going to
00:49:52.420 force you to do
00:49:53.180 it.
00:49:53.860 None of that.
00:49:56.140 Yeah.
00:49:56.860 So one of the
00:49:58.480 things that
00:49:59.120 conservatives
00:50:00.160 universally have
00:50:01.860 as, I would
00:50:02.500 say, a blind
00:50:03.100 spot, is that
00:50:04.880 people are not
00:50:05.540 that coordinated.
00:50:08.040 To me, that's
00:50:08.880 the big blind
00:50:09.480 spot.
00:50:10.640 Now, there are
00:50:11.340 definitely things
00:50:11.980 that seem
00:50:12.380 coordinated.
00:50:13.200 In other words,
00:50:13.820 the deep state
00:50:15.280 does seem to
00:50:16.420 act like one
00:50:17.420 big blob, but
00:50:19.340 when you look at
00:50:19.880 the deep state,
00:50:21.300 are not their
00:50:22.040 motivations the
00:50:23.120 obvious ones that
00:50:24.120 people have always
00:50:24.760 had?
00:50:26.180 Obvious.
00:50:26.960 They want their
00:50:27.560 side to win,
00:50:28.900 they want good
00:50:29.660 jobs and power,
00:50:31.260 and it's all
00:50:31.740 obvious.
00:50:33.020 So when you're
00:50:33.580 looking at the
00:50:34.080 blob or the
00:50:34.860 deep state, and
00:50:36.260 you've got a
00:50:36.680 conspiracy theory
00:50:37.680 about, hey, I
00:50:39.020 think the intel
00:50:39.940 people are
00:50:40.480 working with
00:50:41.060 the media, and
00:50:42.300 the media might
00:50:42.900 be working with
00:50:43.480 the Democrats,
00:50:44.400 that's all
00:50:44.960 observable.
00:50:46.080 It's not only
00:50:46.920 directly observable,
00:50:48.600 proven in
00:50:49.380 documents and
00:50:50.920 leaks and
00:50:52.360 whistleblowers,
00:50:53.300 and everything.
00:50:53.660 So you've got
00:50:54.040 tons of direct
00:50:55.300 evidence, but it
00:50:56.740 also completely
00:50:57.920 fits the greed
00:51:00.460 and selfishness
00:51:01.700 model that
00:51:03.100 explains all
00:51:03.860 human activity
00:51:04.580 forever.
00:51:05.920 But if you
00:51:06.360 tell me there's
00:51:06.880 somebody sitting
00:51:07.460 in a room who
00:51:08.520 wants you to
00:51:08.960 eat bugs and
00:51:09.520 drink soy
00:51:09.980 milk, unless
00:51:11.420 they're making
00:51:12.720 money from bugs
00:51:13.540 and soy
00:51:13.940 milk, no.
00:51:16.860 No, that's
00:51:17.680 not happening.
00:51:20.320 Anyway, that's
00:51:21.080 my opinion.
00:51:21.520 But I do
00:51:24.940 think climate
00:51:25.420 is a scam.
00:51:28.440 All right,
00:51:29.720 Gavin Newsom
00:51:30.360 and DeSantis
00:51:31.260 had a debate.
00:51:33.700 Hannity was
00:51:34.480 the moderator.
00:51:36.860 I tried to
00:51:37.580 watch it.
00:51:38.880 Let me tell you
00:51:39.460 when I bailed
00:51:40.080 out.
00:51:42.480 DeSantis
00:51:43.000 says, hey,
00:51:44.740 can you
00:51:45.020 explain why
00:51:45.800 everybody keeps
00:51:46.780 moving out of
00:51:47.680 California and
00:51:48.520 moving to my
00:51:49.140 state in Florida?
00:51:49.920 Florida, so
00:51:50.880 therefore I'm
00:51:51.480 the winner because
00:51:52.640 the people are
00:51:53.120 voting with their
00:51:53.720 feet.
00:51:54.300 The people in
00:51:54.820 your state,
00:51:55.420 they're all, you
00:51:56.260 know, it's the
00:51:57.080 most U-Hauls
00:51:57.980 they've ever used.
00:51:59.140 They're all
00:51:59.540 coming to
00:51:59.920 Florida.
00:52:00.640 And what does
00:52:01.200 DeSantis say to
00:52:02.060 that?
00:52:05.240 DeSantis, I'm
00:52:06.080 sorry, what does
00:52:06.960 Newsom say?
00:52:08.480 Here's what
00:52:08.860 Newsom says.
00:52:10.080 No, they're not.
00:52:11.320 They're moving from
00:52:12.280 Florida to
00:52:12.840 California.
00:52:13.360 That's when I
00:52:18.000 turned it off.
00:52:19.640 Because I
00:52:20.240 realized that it
00:52:21.380 was the format
00:52:22.040 that's the
00:52:22.460 problem.
00:52:22.960 How many times
00:52:23.580 have I told
00:52:23.980 you?
00:52:24.960 If somebody
00:52:25.860 can win a
00:52:26.520 debate by
00:52:27.680 saying something
00:52:28.380 absolutely
00:52:29.040 fucking ridiculous
00:52:30.180 because half of
00:52:33.080 the public
00:52:33.480 doesn't have
00:52:34.120 access to the
00:52:34.880 news, they
00:52:36.200 only have
00:52:36.540 access to
00:52:37.620 propaganda,
00:52:39.620 DeSantis could
00:52:40.440 lie all day
00:52:41.260 long, and
00:52:43.480 Republicans would
00:52:44.380 think what they
00:52:44.980 thought of him
00:52:45.520 all along, it
00:52:46.180 wouldn't change,
00:52:47.600 and Democrats
00:52:48.400 would say, hey,
00:52:49.060 that was pretty
00:52:49.560 brave, he went
00:52:50.240 into the lion's
00:52:50.980 den and you
00:52:52.080 roughed up
00:52:52.580 DeSantis.
00:52:53.360 Good job.
00:52:55.240 Newsom totally
00:52:55.880 won.
00:52:57.960 Newsom totally
00:52:59.920 won.
00:53:01.060 Did he say
00:53:01.600 anything that
00:53:02.200 was true?
00:53:03.120 Probably not.
00:53:05.000 Did DeSantis do
00:53:06.020 a better job of
00:53:07.180 making arguments
00:53:08.480 based on facts?
00:53:10.560 Probably.
00:53:11.820 Did that help
00:53:12.500 him?
00:53:13.400 No.
00:53:15.240 Didn't make
00:53:15.980 any difference.
00:53:17.220 Read the
00:53:17.940 review, it's
00:53:18.340 the exact thing
00:53:19.360 you'd expect,
00:53:20.100 right?
00:53:20.560 Democrats say
00:53:21.440 Newsom won,
00:53:22.780 Republicans,
00:53:23.540 maybe they
00:53:23.940 like DeSantis
00:53:24.560 more.
00:53:27.360 But no, as
00:53:28.420 long as DeSantis
00:53:29.160 can just deny
00:53:30.060 reality, and
00:53:31.360 nobody knows the
00:53:32.100 difference on
00:53:32.680 his team, he
00:53:34.220 wins.
00:53:35.460 He wins.
00:53:36.880 So Newsom
00:53:37.440 won, hands
00:53:38.280 down, simply
00:53:39.460 by showing
00:53:40.020 up and
00:53:40.600 smiling and
00:53:42.600 lying and
00:53:43.740 doing his
00:53:44.180 thing.
00:53:45.260 But what
00:53:45.720 else did we
00:53:46.100 learn about
00:53:46.480 this?
00:53:47.820 DeSantis says
00:53:48.620 that Gavin
00:53:49.100 Newsom's own
00:53:49.780 father-in-law
00:53:50.420 fled from
00:53:51.860 California to
00:53:53.320 live in
00:53:53.740 Florida.
00:53:56.300 Now, that's
00:53:57.540 kind of a
00:53:57.980 funny gotcha,
00:53:59.220 but it doesn't
00:53:59.940 win you any
00:54:00.440 debates.
00:54:01.720 Because as a
00:54:02.680 human being,
00:54:03.240 you listen to
00:54:03.820 that story and
00:54:04.440 you say to
00:54:04.860 yourself,
00:54:05.640 okay, there
00:54:06.060 could be a
00:54:06.420 lot of
00:54:06.640 reasons for
00:54:07.100 that.
00:54:08.940 That's not
00:54:09.480 exactly a
00:54:11.280 kill shot.
00:54:11.780 It's fun.
00:54:12.900 It's fun.
00:54:13.520 You might
00:54:13.800 remember it,
00:54:14.400 but it's not
00:54:14.700 really a
00:54:15.040 kill shot.
00:54:18.160 And then I
00:54:18.560 guess Newsom
00:54:21.340 said his
00:54:21.740 lockdowns were
00:54:22.480 great, and he
00:54:23.020 saved lives.
00:54:24.920 And the
00:54:25.720 trouble with
00:54:26.540 the, and of
00:54:28.560 course nobody on
00:54:29.220 the right believes
00:54:29.800 that.
00:54:30.120 They think it's
00:54:30.520 the opposite.
00:54:31.100 Everything he
00:54:31.540 did killed
00:54:31.980 people, ruined
00:54:32.960 children, and all
00:54:33.680 that.
00:54:33.840 But debates
00:54:35.480 are worthless.
00:54:37.500 This could not
00:54:38.400 have been more
00:54:38.920 worthless, because
00:54:40.300 you'd never get
00:54:41.420 to fact check
00:54:41.960 anything.
00:54:42.820 I've said it a
00:54:43.700 million times.
00:54:45.400 Somebody's going
00:54:46.000 to create a
00:54:46.800 debate show in
00:54:49.320 which the fact
00:54:50.080 checkers are part
00:54:50.900 of the debate, and
00:54:52.300 each team has
00:54:53.020 their own, and
00:54:54.300 the host has
00:54:54.920 their own.
00:54:56.160 So that if a
00:54:57.700 fact comes up,
00:54:58.520 instead of this
00:54:59.880 bullshit where you
00:55:01.280 can just claim it's
00:55:02.160 true and run out
00:55:03.060 the clock,
00:55:03.840 you stop.
00:55:05.440 You say, all
00:55:06.160 right, there's a
00:55:06.740 fact check, and
00:55:08.020 then they both
00:55:08.580 show their
00:55:08.960 sources, and
00:55:10.220 then maybe the
00:55:10.980 moderator says,
00:55:12.080 all right, I'm
00:55:13.120 going to rule
00:55:13.620 that neither of
00:55:16.180 them are reliable,
00:55:17.320 or it's a jump
00:55:19.280 ball, so make
00:55:20.260 your own decision
00:55:20.920 at home, or one
00:55:22.020 of these is just
00:55:22.600 wrong.
00:55:23.580 Now one of them
00:55:24.080 just lied.
00:55:25.700 Now that's a
00:55:26.400 debate.
00:55:27.900 I'd watch that all
00:55:28.900 day long, even if
00:55:29.700 it took longer,
00:55:30.340 because you
00:55:31.140 could do it
00:55:31.580 live when it's
00:55:32.480 a little slow
00:55:33.120 because it
00:55:33.600 slows down with
00:55:34.400 the false
00:55:35.000 claims, but
00:55:36.360 then when you
00:55:36.860 edit it together,
00:55:38.060 you just fast
00:55:38.740 forward the
00:55:39.320 fact checking to
00:55:40.560 get to the end
00:55:41.580 of it, and
00:55:42.840 that would be
00:55:43.360 great.
00:55:44.160 Imagine a fast
00:55:45.220 forward through
00:55:45.860 all the fact
00:55:46.600 checking, but
00:55:47.460 they always have
00:55:48.040 to stop when
00:55:48.620 there's a fact
00:55:49.140 check.
00:55:50.180 That would be a
00:55:50.980 debate.
00:55:51.680 That'd be fun.
00:55:54.440 All right, we
00:55:55.100 have a moron
00:55:56.060 here, moron, Jason
00:56:00.760 Ferris.
00:56:02.060 Claude, get
00:56:03.260 your Booster
00:56:03.900 items.
00:56:05.040 So Jason fell
00:56:06.300 for the 4chan
00:56:07.600 hoax that
00:56:09.040 reversed all of
00:56:09.920 my opinions on
00:56:11.260 the pandemic.
00:56:12.720 Jason, you
00:56:13.400 should be very
00:56:13.900 embarrassed about
00:56:15.320 falling for that.
00:56:19.040 All right.
00:56:22.700 So here's
00:56:23.560 some, oh,
00:56:24.100 then DeSantis
00:56:24.720 held up the
00:56:25.480 so-called poop
00:56:26.320 map of San
00:56:27.140 Francisco.
00:56:28.400 So it's a map
00:56:29.240 where there was
00:56:29.820 an app where
00:56:30.820 you could report
00:56:31.800 if there was
00:56:32.600 human feces on
00:56:33.620 the sidewalk
00:56:34.120 somewhere so
00:56:35.280 people could
00:56:35.740 stay away.
00:56:36.760 But what
00:56:37.120 happened was
00:56:37.680 the entire map
00:56:38.460 turned brown
00:56:39.160 because there
00:56:40.180 were so many
00:56:40.720 reports of
00:56:42.440 feces on
00:56:42.940 sidewalks that
00:56:44.040 you couldn't
00:56:44.320 even use it.
00:56:44.860 It was just
00:56:45.140 brown.
00:56:47.460 Now, remember
00:56:48.800 I said that
00:56:49.560 persuasion is
00:56:50.980 visual.
00:56:52.820 So DeSantis
00:56:53.380 holds up the
00:56:54.600 map so you
00:56:56.820 can see this
00:56:57.280 big pile of
00:56:58.040 shit.
00:56:59.400 And he holds
00:57:00.160 it up next
00:57:00.640 to his face
00:57:01.340 and that
00:57:04.680 was his
00:57:05.100 persuasion.
00:57:05.700 I know what
00:57:13.680 he was going
00:57:14.220 for.
00:57:15.980 Now, what
00:57:17.080 he was aiming
00:57:17.620 for was a
00:57:19.160 good visual
00:57:19.720 persuasion, a
00:57:20.860 moment that
00:57:21.500 people would
00:57:22.060 remember that
00:57:23.200 would really
00:57:23.640 brand Newsom
00:57:25.580 as a bad
00:57:27.120 governor.
00:57:28.300 what it
00:57:31.140 made instead
00:57:31.920 was an
00:57:32.440 association of
00:57:33.440 Ron DeSantis
00:57:34.260 and a
00:57:34.680 giant pile
00:57:35.220 of shit.
00:57:37.220 The visual
00:57:38.260 persuasion
00:57:38.940 doesn't live
00:57:40.340 completely on
00:57:41.240 its own.
00:57:42.780 You can't
00:57:43.420 make the
00:57:43.720 other mistakes.
00:57:44.860 You don't
00:57:45.320 want to
00:57:45.620 associate
00:57:46.040 yourself with
00:57:46.960 something that's
00:57:47.600 disgusting.
00:57:49.640 So what I'll
00:57:50.780 remember about
00:57:51.460 that is Ron
00:57:52.500 DeSantis,
00:57:53.780 his big old
00:57:54.560 head here,
00:57:55.520 and a
00:57:56.900 big old
00:57:57.240 pile of
00:57:57.660 shit right
00:57:58.020 next to
00:57:58.420 it.
00:57:59.340 That's what
00:57:59.960 I remember.
00:58:00.980 I already
00:58:01.620 knew that
00:58:03.000 San Francisco
00:58:03.720 had some
00:58:04.160 problems.
00:58:05.060 So I learned
00:58:05.580 nothing new
00:58:06.120 from that.
00:58:07.100 So nothing
00:58:07.520 changed because
00:58:08.520 I know that
00:58:09.040 San Francisco
00:58:09.540 has problems.
00:58:11.140 But now in
00:58:11.880 my head, I've
00:58:13.720 got a pile of
00:58:14.420 shit in DeSantis'
00:58:15.600 head and I
00:58:16.200 can't unsee
00:58:16.800 it.
00:58:18.040 Yeah.
00:58:18.680 That's visual
00:58:19.380 persuasion done
00:58:20.900 as wrong as
00:58:21.600 you could do
00:58:22.000 it.
00:58:23.840 But I
00:58:24.440 asked myself,
00:58:25.060 and you
00:58:27.420 should ask
00:58:27.760 yourself,
00:58:28.520 if Trump
00:58:29.180 had done
00:58:29.620 this, would
00:58:30.420 I feel
00:58:30.740 differently?
00:58:34.520 Yes.
00:58:35.600 You know
00:58:36.160 why?
00:58:37.180 Because for
00:58:37.800 Trump it
00:58:38.200 would be on
00:58:38.620 brand.
00:58:40.380 Yeah, it
00:58:40.680 would be on
00:58:41.080 brand.
00:58:41.780 But Trump
00:58:42.520 doesn't like to
00:58:43.160 do gross
00:58:43.780 stuff.
00:58:45.680 Right?
00:58:46.120 Trump has
00:58:46.680 like a, you
00:58:47.880 know, he's
00:58:48.120 not even a
00:58:48.580 big fan of
00:58:49.400 shaking hands.
00:58:50.760 So I don't
00:58:52.100 think he would
00:58:52.620 hold up a
00:58:53.120 big pile of
00:58:53.740 human feces
00:58:54.540 and say,
00:58:55.780 hey, remember
00:58:56.820 me, remember
00:58:58.000 this pile of
00:58:58.640 feces.
00:58:59.380 That would be
00:59:00.140 opposite of
00:59:00.900 Trump's
00:59:01.240 personality.
00:59:01.880 I can't
00:59:02.200 imagine him
00:59:02.620 doing it.
00:59:03.400 But if he
00:59:03.840 did, because
00:59:05.860 it's Trump, it
00:59:07.100 would seem
00:59:07.440 funnier.
00:59:10.520 See, the
00:59:11.120 problem is that
00:59:11.780 DeSantis, if he
00:59:12.760 does something
00:59:13.280 that's out of
00:59:14.080 brand, because
00:59:15.620 that was a
00:59:16.000 little bit
00:59:16.360 out of
00:59:16.680 brand.
00:59:17.860 DeSantis is
00:59:18.560 just the, he's
00:59:19.540 the accountant
00:59:20.180 who's not going
00:59:20.840 to make a
00:59:21.240 mistake.
00:59:22.200 He's going to
00:59:22.640 tell you what
00:59:23.040 he's going
00:59:23.320 to do, and
00:59:23.720 then he's
00:59:23.980 going to
00:59:24.180 do it, and
00:59:25.200 you'll be
00:59:25.520 pretty happy
00:59:25.980 about it, like
00:59:26.820 he's an
00:59:27.120 operator, and
00:59:28.780 good, probably
00:59:29.960 one of the
00:59:30.280 best governors
00:59:30.840 of all time.
00:59:33.800 But if
00:59:34.340 you're a
00:59:34.660 showman, and
00:59:35.940 people say,
00:59:36.580 okay, what is
00:59:38.400 the guy who's
00:59:38.880 bringing the
00:59:39.420 show going to
00:59:40.040 show me?
00:59:40.920 Well, you
00:59:41.580 might look at
00:59:42.020 it differently,
00:59:42.580 but it would
00:59:42.920 still be a
00:59:43.720 mistake.
00:59:47.060 All right, you
00:59:47.740 know all those
00:59:48.240 January 6th
00:59:49.580 depositions that
00:59:50.560 the committee,
00:59:51.260 the congressional
00:59:51.980 committee got,
00:59:53.620 and now the
00:59:55.600 Republicans would
00:59:56.400 like to get a
00:59:56.900 copy of all the
00:59:57.520 ones that we
00:59:57.940 didn't see,
00:59:59.040 because there
00:59:59.480 were a lot of
00:59:59.860 depositions that
01:00:00.660 were not public,
01:00:02.040 and wouldn't you
01:00:02.760 like to know,
01:00:03.700 you know, whatever
01:00:04.380 the committee
01:00:04.820 knew?
01:00:05.820 Yeah.
01:00:08.360 They're all
01:00:08.880 missing.
01:00:10.180 Every one of
01:00:10.880 them.
01:00:16.640 Every one of the
01:00:17.420 deposition videos.
01:00:18.500 not some of
01:00:20.420 them, not
01:00:22.000 some of them,
01:00:23.400 every one of
01:00:24.200 them is gone.
01:00:26.440 What should you
01:00:27.280 assume about
01:00:27.880 that?
01:00:29.840 Well, if this
01:00:31.820 were a case about
01:00:32.720 an individual
01:00:33.700 American citizen,
01:00:35.060 I'd say, well,
01:00:36.040 that person is
01:00:36.700 innocent until
01:00:37.520 proven guilty.
01:00:38.760 That's our
01:00:39.260 standard.
01:00:39.780 We should not
01:00:40.240 change that.
01:00:42.300 But what happens
01:00:43.280 when it's a
01:00:43.820 government, and
01:00:45.520 the government
01:00:45.980 does something
01:00:46.640 that every
01:00:47.220 single person
01:00:48.120 who sees it
01:00:49.040 says, well,
01:00:49.980 that's a little
01:00:50.500 sketchy and
01:00:51.360 corrupt-looking.
01:00:53.080 What should you
01:00:53.760 assume?
01:00:55.280 You should assume
01:00:55.940 guilt.
01:00:57.040 Yeah.
01:00:57.380 Doesn't mean it.
01:00:58.400 Doesn't mean it's
01:00:59.100 not a mistake.
01:00:59.880 Could be a mistake.
01:01:01.260 But you should
01:01:01.740 assume guilt.
01:01:03.500 Because that's
01:01:04.180 the better system.
01:01:06.180 So I'm going to
01:01:06.740 assume that the
01:01:08.000 January 6th
01:01:08.840 committee was as
01:01:09.720 corrupt as they
01:01:10.460 looked.
01:01:11.180 I mean, they
01:01:11.560 looked corrupt
01:01:12.340 without even
01:01:12.880 knowing this.
01:01:13.560 But I would say
01:01:14.100 this is confirmation
01:01:14.900 of their corruption.
01:01:16.640 And I think
01:01:17.020 the January 6th
01:01:17.860 committee committed
01:01:19.460 a worse crime
01:01:20.540 than anybody
01:01:21.200 did on January
01:01:21.940 6th.
01:01:23.160 I think the
01:01:23.960 committee committed
01:01:25.540 a far worse
01:01:26.420 crime than even
01:01:27.840 the people who
01:01:28.440 did violence.
01:01:30.340 Even the people
01:01:31.200 who did violence,
01:01:31.960 I'm including
01:01:32.420 them, were not
01:01:33.740 nearly as bad as
01:01:34.760 what the January
01:01:35.380 6th committee
01:01:36.180 attempted to do.
01:01:37.620 Because the
01:01:38.260 violence, as bad
01:01:39.040 as it was,
01:01:39.820 clearly a tragedy.
01:01:41.180 We have empathy
01:01:41.840 for the victims.
01:01:43.100 I'm not making
01:01:43.880 light of victims.
01:01:44.900 But they were
01:01:46.900 individuals, and
01:01:48.700 there weren't
01:01:48.980 that many of
01:01:49.600 them.
01:01:52.040 But when you
01:01:52.880 corrupt the
01:01:53.420 country, the
01:01:54.420 entire system, as
01:01:56.020 grossly as the
01:01:57.040 January 6th
01:01:57.800 committee, even
01:02:00.660 without the
01:02:01.240 bloodshed, I've
01:02:03.980 got to say it's
01:02:04.480 worse.
01:02:06.180 If you found
01:02:07.140 out that the
01:02:07.860 republic were
01:02:09.060 overthrown
01:02:10.500 tomorrow, you
01:02:12.100 wouldn't say to
01:02:12.580 yourself, well,
01:02:13.140 nobody died.
01:02:13.780 you'd say, okay,
01:02:15.400 that's worse.
01:02:16.560 Because, you
01:02:17.000 know, down the
01:02:17.540 road, it's going
01:02:18.040 to be much
01:02:18.420 worse, you
01:02:18.840 know.
01:02:21.140 So that's
01:02:21.740 probably exactly
01:02:22.300 what it looks
01:02:22.700 like.
01:02:23.100 Kyle Becker
01:02:23.820 again, reporting
01:02:24.860 on that.
01:02:26.980 Chris Cuomo
01:02:29.120 went on the
01:02:30.840 Patrick
01:02:32.540 Ben David
01:02:34.760 show, do I
01:02:35.480 have his name
01:02:35.920 right, podcast,
01:02:38.180 and here's
01:02:40.120 what he said.
01:02:42.900 This is
01:02:43.500 Cuomo, Chris
01:02:44.260 Cuomo.
01:02:44.680 He said, as
01:02:45.320 Patrick says, the
01:02:46.600 data is the
01:02:47.100 data.
01:02:47.500 Nobody was
01:02:48.060 trying to kill
01:02:48.600 us when Trump
01:02:49.280 was president in
01:02:50.680 a way that they're
01:02:51.900 not now.
01:02:53.400 In a way that
01:02:54.280 they're not now.
01:02:55.080 I think that's a
01:02:55.740 typo.
01:02:56.080 If anything,
01:02:57.320 there's more
01:02:57.760 hostility.
01:02:59.400 So PBD says,
01:03:01.440 so you're open
01:03:02.280 to a Trump
01:03:02.860 vote?
01:03:05.080 This is Chris
01:03:05.800 Cuomo, who had
01:03:07.340 been on CNN
01:03:07.960 until he went to
01:03:08.740 News Nation.
01:03:09.840 And Cuomo
01:03:10.200 says, I am
01:03:11.320 always open.
01:03:13.560 And I'll tell
01:03:14.160 you this, people
01:03:15.220 say, oh,
01:03:16.560 oh, bullshit.
01:03:18.160 You're never
01:03:18.840 voting for a
01:03:19.500 Republican in
01:03:20.060 your life.
01:03:21.360 And Cuomo
01:03:21.700 says, wrong.
01:03:23.100 And not only
01:03:23.860 have I, the
01:03:24.740 first vote I
01:03:25.360 ever cast was
01:03:25.980 for a
01:03:26.320 Republican.
01:03:27.900 All right, let's
01:03:28.420 do a test.
01:03:29.960 Do you believe
01:03:30.620 that he's telling
01:03:31.220 the truth, that
01:03:31.900 he would consider,
01:03:32.860 he's not saying
01:03:33.420 he would vote
01:03:33.880 for him, but
01:03:34.740 that he would
01:03:35.260 seriously consider
01:03:36.220 voting for
01:03:36.660 Trump?
01:03:41.500 You're very
01:03:42.140 mixed.
01:03:43.360 I see lots of
01:03:44.100 yeses and lots
01:03:44.760 of nos.
01:03:46.460 I'm going to
01:03:47.000 tell you the
01:03:47.440 definitive answer
01:03:48.160 to this.
01:03:50.460 Because, so
01:03:51.760 Chris Cuomo
01:03:52.320 was among the
01:03:54.960 first,
01:03:55.340 you can say
01:03:56.480 the first,
01:03:57.580 major news
01:03:59.260 person who
01:04:00.860 asked to talk
01:04:01.640 to me after
01:04:02.160 I got
01:04:02.460 canceled.
01:04:03.580 Now, it
01:04:04.420 took him some
01:04:05.040 convincing, so
01:04:06.600 we had some
01:04:07.580 extensive private
01:04:08.780 conversations before
01:04:09.840 I appeared.
01:04:11.260 And I'm not
01:04:12.400 going to tell you
01:04:12.820 my private
01:04:13.380 conversations, but
01:04:14.820 I will tell you
01:04:15.660 with certainty,
01:04:17.680 he means it,
01:04:18.320 with certainty.
01:04:21.980 Based on private
01:04:23.140 conversations, with
01:04:25.200 certainty, he
01:04:26.460 means that he's
01:04:27.100 open to it.
01:04:27.960 Now, again, I want
01:04:28.640 to be clear.
01:04:29.460 I'm not saying that
01:04:30.440 he's certainly
01:04:31.620 voting for Trump,
01:04:32.560 nothing like that.
01:04:33.840 I'm saying that he
01:04:34.900 is absolutely
01:04:35.720 open to the
01:04:37.320 argument.
01:04:39.100 And again, if you
01:04:40.640 didn't talk to him
01:04:41.260 personally, you
01:04:42.580 wouldn't have any
01:04:43.140 sense of that,
01:04:43.800 because you're
01:04:44.260 only seeing the
01:04:44.760 public version.
01:04:45.980 But keep in
01:04:46.540 mind, what's
01:04:48.340 the worst thing
01:04:48.960 that happened to
01:04:49.700 Chris Cuomo
01:04:50.480 professionally?
01:04:52.800 And who did
01:04:53.600 it to him?
01:04:54.660 It wasn't
01:04:55.340 Republicans.
01:04:56.580 Getting canceled
01:04:57.460 on CNN was the
01:04:59.100 worst thing that's
01:04:59.720 ever happened to
01:05:00.300 him, and that
01:05:01.060 was purely
01:05:01.660 Democrats.
01:05:03.980 Right?
01:05:05.200 And do you
01:05:06.020 know what I
01:05:06.420 said when he
01:05:07.260 was getting in
01:05:07.800 trouble for, you
01:05:09.240 know, helping his
01:05:09.900 brother, the
01:05:10.460 governor of New
01:05:11.160 York?
01:05:12.000 I said, that's
01:05:13.240 bullshit.
01:05:14.520 He can help
01:05:15.100 his brother all
01:05:15.920 day long.
01:05:17.220 I don't care if
01:05:17.840 there's a conflict
01:05:18.480 of interest.
01:05:19.060 Everybody knows.
01:05:20.380 That's the most
01:05:21.100 obvious conflict of
01:05:22.660 interest.
01:05:23.120 It couldn't be
01:05:23.620 more transparent.
01:05:25.880 He couldn't be
01:05:26.480 more honest about
01:05:27.440 it.
01:05:28.080 He would have his
01:05:28.660 brother on and
01:05:29.420 do, you know,
01:05:30.680 giant Q-tip jokes
01:05:32.580 and shit.
01:05:33.900 Obviously.
01:05:35.140 Obviously he was
01:05:35.880 going to help his
01:05:36.380 brother.
01:05:36.940 And who would
01:05:37.480 want him not to?
01:05:39.480 Who would want
01:05:40.120 him not to?
01:05:41.660 Crazy.
01:05:42.780 Insane.
01:05:44.780 But now, imagine
01:05:45.820 you went through
01:05:46.380 that.
01:05:48.520 Right?
01:05:49.360 And I told him
01:05:50.280 that I was one of
01:05:51.500 his supporters on
01:05:52.360 that.
01:05:52.640 Absolutely.
01:05:53.860 That was just so
01:05:55.140 wrong that they
01:05:56.520 took him out for
01:05:57.140 that.
01:05:57.320 So, when I tell you
01:06:01.000 that you don't know
01:06:02.200 exactly what his
01:06:05.240 private thoughts
01:06:05.980 are, because his
01:06:07.380 CNN performance was
01:06:08.780 more of a
01:06:09.240 performance, but
01:06:10.520 when he dealt
01:06:11.060 with me, it was
01:06:13.320 totally straight.
01:06:14.760 He asked tough
01:06:15.400 questions, because
01:06:16.220 he should.
01:06:17.840 And he listened
01:06:18.760 completely to my
01:06:19.620 answers.
01:06:20.020 He didn't talk
01:06:20.600 over me.
01:06:21.100 I mean, no more
01:06:23.380 than a normal
01:06:23.880 interview.
01:06:24.820 And he was
01:06:25.820 completely,
01:06:26.720 completely a
01:06:28.100 legitimate, honest
01:06:29.960 agent on that
01:06:31.060 issue.
01:06:31.680 And I think you're
01:06:32.500 completely wrong.
01:06:33.580 In fact, I'm sure
01:06:34.340 that with complete
01:06:35.360 certainty, he's
01:06:36.500 absolutely open to
01:06:38.600 looking at both
01:06:39.180 sides.
01:06:40.240 Absolutely.
01:06:40.640 And by the
01:06:42.960 way, that's called
01:06:44.300 reciprocity, what I
01:06:45.900 just did.
01:06:46.300 But I'm telling
01:06:47.260 you, he treated
01:06:49.300 me fairly when
01:06:51.040 almost nobody
01:06:51.960 was.
01:06:53.260 So, I'm
01:06:53.980 defending him
01:06:54.800 because I owe
01:06:56.580 him.
01:06:57.920 So, that's
01:06:58.660 payback.
01:07:00.920 All right.
01:07:03.160 Ukraine is
01:07:04.240 allegedly going
01:07:05.000 on defense.
01:07:05.860 So, the new
01:07:06.420 orders are to
01:07:07.360 dig in and
01:07:08.840 defend rather
01:07:09.940 than being on
01:07:10.840 the offense.
01:07:12.340 So, I would
01:07:13.560 say that the
01:07:14.380 cat is on the
01:07:15.420 roof on this
01:07:15.980 one.
01:07:16.700 In the sense
01:07:17.560 that that
01:07:19.420 doesn't look like
01:07:20.100 they think they're
01:07:20.660 going to gain any
01:07:21.420 more territory.
01:07:23.300 So, I think
01:07:24.400 that when Putin
01:07:25.280 says, I'm going
01:07:26.120 to wait for the
01:07:26.940 election in
01:07:28.860 America before I
01:07:29.660 do anything, I
01:07:31.080 think Zelensky
01:07:31.760 realizes that his
01:07:32.780 best bet is to
01:07:34.440 wait for the next
01:07:35.100 election because
01:07:36.680 it's going to
01:07:37.140 happen.
01:07:38.260 So, I feel
01:07:39.440 like all the
01:07:40.960 signals are pretty
01:07:42.640 obvious now that
01:07:44.440 it is going to
01:07:45.140 get negotiated.
01:07:45.860 it's going to
01:07:47.080 look like
01:07:47.620 something like
01:07:48.400 where the
01:07:48.920 current lines
01:07:49.880 are.
01:07:50.160 I imagine it
01:07:50.940 will be right
01:07:51.960 along those
01:07:52.400 lines.
01:07:53.380 And there's no
01:07:54.100 other way this is
01:07:54.780 likely to go.
01:07:56.240 Yeah.
01:07:56.960 I hear the
01:07:57.480 stories about
01:07:58.080 Zelensky buying
01:07:58.960 yachts and stuff,
01:08:00.000 but I wouldn't
01:08:00.620 necessarily believe
01:08:01.400 those.
01:08:01.680 I don't disbelieve
01:08:03.220 them.
01:08:04.180 But in the fog of
01:08:05.460 war and knowing
01:08:06.140 that Russia
01:08:06.620 disinformation is
01:08:07.640 really a thing, I
01:08:10.160 wouldn't believe
01:08:10.580 anything about
01:08:11.300 Zelensky getting
01:08:12.500 rich.
01:08:13.300 I assume it's
01:08:14.040 true.
01:08:14.780 If you ask me
01:08:15.560 what I assume, I
01:08:17.360 assume so.
01:08:18.640 But if you look at
01:08:19.440 any specific report
01:08:20.560 about buying two
01:08:21.440 yachts and stuff
01:08:22.180 like that, I think
01:08:23.920 that's unlikely to
01:08:25.060 be true.
01:08:25.900 Even if he's
01:08:26.560 stealing, he's
01:08:27.280 probably not buying
01:08:27.940 yachts with it.
01:08:28.760 That's my guess.
01:08:31.800 Like it might be
01:08:32.400 in a secret bank
01:08:34.460 account somewhere,
01:08:35.240 but I don't see
01:08:36.460 him buying a yacht
01:08:37.280 that he can't use.
01:08:40.520 All right.
01:08:42.380 Glenn Greenwald
01:08:43.260 talking about MSNBC,
01:08:44.880 who he says
01:08:46.380 talked about
01:08:47.320 Medi
01:08:47.900 yeah, Medi
01:08:49.980 Harsan.
01:08:52.640 Medi
01:08:53.080 Medir
01:08:54.520 Harsan.
01:08:55.480 Harsan.
01:08:56.300 Sorry, I can't
01:08:57.080 say his name
01:08:57.760 right.
01:08:58.760 But he was
01:08:59.520 canceled his
01:09:00.500 show on MSNBC
01:09:01.600 along with two
01:09:04.060 other pro-Palestinian
01:09:05.340 hosts after
01:09:06.040 October 7th.
01:09:07.540 But what's
01:09:08.220 interesting is
01:09:09.160 that it's a
01:09:09.740 long time now.
01:09:11.440 So it's three
01:09:12.700 weeks later after
01:09:13.980 he got canceled
01:09:14.700 and he hasn't
01:09:15.660 said a word in
01:09:16.300 public.
01:09:18.300 That's kind of
01:09:19.040 weird if you're
01:09:19.960 a host of a
01:09:20.780 major TV show.
01:09:22.380 But apparently
01:09:22.840 the no one was
01:09:24.960 watching his show
01:09:25.680 anyway.
01:09:26.100 It was like the
01:09:26.620 lowest rated show
01:09:27.700 on cable news
01:09:29.160 I think.
01:09:29.940 It was just
01:09:30.520 like invisible.
01:09:31.440 It was so
01:09:31.880 lowly
01:09:33.000 attended.
01:09:34.440 So I
01:09:35.800 think MSNBC
01:09:37.080 made the right
01:09:37.700 business decision
01:09:38.600 because keeping
01:09:40.380 on there wasn't
01:09:41.200 making many
01:09:41.760 money but it
01:09:42.360 could have
01:09:43.500 lost the
01:09:43.960 money because
01:09:44.920 they would have
01:09:45.340 lost a lot of
01:09:46.120 Jewish support.
01:09:47.080 But the real
01:09:49.860 question is
01:09:50.580 and I think
01:09:51.740 Glenn Greenwald
01:09:52.740 is on this
01:09:53.300 page is
01:09:54.600 why did he
01:09:57.240 have to get
01:09:57.620 canceled?
01:09:59.040 Just because you
01:10:00.260 hate everything he
01:10:01.080 says and he's
01:10:03.020 you know maybe
01:10:03.960 some would say
01:10:04.600 he's anti-Israel
01:10:05.780 and pro you
01:10:07.780 know two pro
01:10:08.460 bad guys.
01:10:09.700 But doesn't he
01:10:10.560 get to say that?
01:10:12.660 Don't we have a
01:10:13.440 country where you
01:10:14.080 get to say that?
01:10:14.760 And isn't that a
01:10:16.220 point of view
01:10:17.320 that there are
01:10:18.940 enough Americans
01:10:19.680 who want to
01:10:20.120 hear that they
01:10:21.620 ought to hear it?
01:10:24.000 No matter how
01:10:25.080 Nazi like it
01:10:27.260 might sound to
01:10:27.880 your ears?
01:10:30.980 Do you not get
01:10:31.860 to say that in
01:10:32.460 America?
01:10:33.020 You don't get to
01:10:33.620 say something that
01:10:34.280 everybody hates?
01:10:35.600 Well not everybody
01:10:36.380 obviously.
01:10:37.940 It's a good
01:10:38.340 question.
01:10:39.220 I don't know
01:10:39.680 where the line
01:10:40.220 is because on
01:10:42.120 one hand I
01:10:43.200 don't want to
01:10:43.700 hear what he
01:10:44.120 has to say.
01:10:44.760 On the other
01:10:46.980 hand I know
01:10:48.680 that's not how
01:10:49.340 the standard
01:10:49.840 works.
01:10:50.500 The standard
01:10:51.040 is for me to
01:10:53.440 be able to
01:10:53.900 say what I
01:10:54.380 want to say
01:10:54.840 I have to
01:10:55.300 let him say
01:10:55.840 what he wants
01:10:56.380 to say.
01:10:57.440 So I've got
01:10:58.180 a little bit
01:10:58.680 of agreement
01:10:59.240 here with
01:10:59.900 Glenn Greenwald
01:11:00.700 that as much
01:11:02.700 as I think
01:11:03.340 he is a
01:11:04.340 malign bad
01:11:05.500 force and
01:11:06.200 his show
01:11:06.580 was a
01:11:07.120 disaster,
01:11:08.660 I hope he
01:11:09.700 didn't get
01:11:10.300 cancelled just
01:11:11.740 because people
01:11:12.380 didn't want to
01:11:12.940 hear what he
01:11:13.280 had to say.
01:11:14.760 That would
01:11:15.140 be the
01:11:15.380 wrong reason.
01:11:16.720 If he
01:11:17.240 wasn't making
01:11:17.780 money and
01:11:18.580 it was just
01:11:19.340 too much
01:11:19.680 problem for
01:11:20.260 the company
01:11:20.700 then it's
01:11:21.100 just a
01:11:21.360 business
01:11:21.640 decision.
01:11:22.920 I hope it
01:11:23.380 wasn't because
01:11:23.860 of what he
01:11:24.320 was saying.
01:11:27.180 And again
01:11:27.860 I'll remind
01:11:28.560 you I'm
01:11:28.960 100% behind
01:11:29.840 Israel for
01:11:31.680 its Gaza
01:11:32.960 policies.
01:11:34.140 Anything that
01:11:34.740 happened before
01:11:35.380 October 7th I
01:11:36.820 don't care.
01:11:38.120 I'm just not
01:11:38.760 involved in that.
01:11:39.500 So I don't
01:11:40.520 care about
01:11:40.880 their history.
01:11:41.620 I don't
01:11:41.800 care who
01:11:42.120 did what
01:11:42.520 to who.
01:11:43.680 October 7th I'm
01:11:46.460 going to judge
01:11:47.300 everything that
01:11:47.840 happens in
01:11:48.300 Gaza by
01:11:48.900 October 7th.
01:11:50.840 That's my
01:11:51.280 stand.
01:11:52.840 All right.
01:11:53.220 Israel has
01:11:53.900 put out some
01:11:54.780 fighting maps.
01:11:56.140 Some maps that
01:11:57.180 show Gaza in a
01:11:58.660 grid with
01:11:59.700 numbered numbers
01:12:00.760 on each of the
01:12:01.380 boxes.
01:12:02.680 And I guess
01:12:03.500 they're dropping
01:12:04.360 pamphlets now
01:12:05.500 because the
01:12:06.160 ceasefire didn't
01:12:07.140 work.
01:12:08.020 The ceasefire's
01:12:08.640 over.
01:12:08.940 Well the
01:12:09.260 ceasefire did
01:12:09.800 work because
01:12:10.400 they exchanged
01:12:11.240 prisoners.
01:12:12.680 But there's still
01:12:13.320 some to go and
01:12:14.280 the claim is that
01:12:15.760 Hamas is not
01:12:17.220 doing everything
01:12:17.800 they said they
01:12:18.340 do so Israel's
01:12:20.160 going to go back
01:12:20.720 to the attack.
01:12:22.920 Now that could
01:12:24.160 also be a
01:12:24.780 bluff.
01:12:26.620 So it could be
01:12:27.480 that Israel is
01:12:29.500 doing everything
01:12:31.260 that looks like
01:12:31.940 they're going on
01:12:32.560 an aggressive
01:12:33.100 attack to get
01:12:34.700 Hamas to
01:12:35.540 you know fold
01:12:37.120 on the last
01:12:37.800 few things
01:12:38.340 about the
01:12:38.900 prisoners.
01:12:40.500 Maybe.
01:12:41.740 Or maybe it's
01:12:42.480 a win either
01:12:42.940 way.
01:12:43.680 Getting ready
01:12:44.220 to fight
01:12:44.700 because they
01:12:45.080 need to.
01:12:45.700 Well you just
01:12:46.140 need to do
01:12:46.560 that.
01:12:47.360 But if it
01:12:47.920 had the effect
01:12:48.540 of causing
01:12:49.160 the hostages
01:12:50.120 to come back
01:12:50.860 well that's
01:12:52.220 good too.
01:12:53.160 So it makes
01:12:53.700 sense what
01:12:54.060 they're doing
01:12:54.400 and it makes
01:12:55.500 sense that they
01:12:56.000 would have
01:12:56.260 this grid.
01:12:57.120 But remember
01:12:57.600 I told you
01:12:58.160 visual persuasion
01:12:59.380 is the strongest.
01:13:02.340 When you
01:13:02.800 actually see the
01:13:03.700 map and you
01:13:05.260 see there's
01:13:05.700 lots of boxes
01:13:07.220 and you see
01:13:08.720 that they're
01:13:09.320 going to drop
01:13:09.900 people in
01:13:12.520 advance hey
01:13:12.980 we're going
01:13:13.340 into this box
01:13:14.080 if you're a
01:13:15.180 civilian get
01:13:16.400 out of this
01:13:16.760 box.
01:13:17.800 But the box
01:13:18.340 is not so
01:13:19.080 big that they
01:13:20.760 don't know how
01:13:21.160 to get out of
01:13:21.660 it.
01:13:22.400 In other words
01:13:22.840 it's all walking
01:13:23.460 distance.
01:13:24.300 If you said
01:13:25.080 you have to
01:13:25.480 get out of
01:13:25.880 northern Gaza
01:13:27.080 well that's
01:13:28.500 too far to
01:13:28.980 go.
01:13:30.180 Like to do
01:13:31.160 what?
01:13:31.880 How do you
01:13:32.240 get out of
01:13:32.640 the north?
01:13:33.280 The north is
01:13:33.940 just too big.
01:13:34.580 Getting out
01:13:35.980 is no easy
01:13:36.740 thing.
01:13:37.300 But if you
01:13:37.920 make it small
01:13:38.520 enough boxes
01:13:39.280 everybody can
01:13:41.000 walk to the
01:13:41.520 next box
01:13:42.160 until the
01:13:43.160 bombing stops
01:13:43.900 in that box.
01:13:46.160 Now I don't
01:13:46.920 know how this
01:13:47.340 is going to
01:13:47.700 work.
01:13:50.400 Because
01:13:50.840 wouldn't Hamas
01:13:53.280 get out of
01:13:53.740 the box
01:13:54.140 too?
01:13:56.180 So we'll
01:13:57.560 see what
01:13:57.920 happens.
01:13:58.420 It could be
01:13:58.780 either the
01:13:59.120 best idea
01:13:59.720 or the
01:14:00.000 worst idea.
01:14:00.900 But here's
01:14:01.300 what's important.
01:14:01.900 from a
01:14:02.860 persuasion
01:14:03.600 public relations
01:14:04.640 standpoint
01:14:05.200 when I heard
01:14:07.220 Israel saying
01:14:08.240 hey innocents
01:14:09.100 can leave
01:14:09.680 I said to
01:14:10.940 myself okay
01:14:11.680 I back
01:14:12.260 Israel
01:14:12.680 I'm on
01:14:13.960 their side
01:14:14.440 but can
01:14:16.020 they really
01:14:16.420 leave?
01:14:17.800 Can you
01:14:18.200 really walk
01:14:19.480 from northern
01:14:20.120 Gaza to
01:14:20.820 southern Gaza
01:14:21.540 in a war
01:14:22.220 zone?
01:14:23.100 To me that
01:14:23.780 didn't look
01:14:24.180 like they
01:14:24.520 could really
01:14:25.040 leave.
01:14:26.120 Did you have
01:14:26.500 the same
01:14:26.800 feeling?
01:14:27.680 It's like
01:14:27.940 yeah I get
01:14:28.420 in principle
01:14:29.100 you say they
01:14:29.660 can leave
01:14:30.180 but in a
01:14:31.360 practical sense
01:14:32.340 there's no
01:14:33.080 way.
01:14:34.320 There's no
01:14:35.260 way.
01:14:36.580 So now they
01:14:37.160 have a new
01:14:38.220 visual representation
01:14:39.480 of the area
01:14:40.700 so you can
01:14:41.380 just look at
01:14:41.960 it and you
01:14:42.400 can look at
01:14:42.820 it and say
01:14:43.120 oh yeah that
01:14:44.000 would work.
01:14:45.440 Like your
01:14:45.860 brain instantly
01:14:46.680 says well I
01:14:47.340 could walk
01:14:47.700 from that
01:14:48.000 box to that
01:14:48.600 box and
01:14:49.640 wait for a
01:14:50.120 day.
01:14:50.920 I could do
01:14:51.320 that.
01:14:54.060 Jason you're
01:14:54.800 such a bad
01:14:55.360 troll.
01:14:57.120 You're not
01:14:57.700 even making
01:14:58.080 a dent.
01:15:00.180 Are you
01:15:01.120 drunk already
01:15:01.780 Jason?
01:15:03.120 You act like
01:15:04.080 you're drunk.
01:15:06.640 By the way
01:15:07.440 the number
01:15:08.380 of times you
01:15:08.980 can make
01:15:09.320 somebody go
01:15:09.900 away by
01:15:10.520 asking if
01:15:11.080 they're drunk
01:15:11.600 you should
01:15:13.680 see how
01:15:14.040 often that
01:15:14.480 works.
01:15:15.700 It's crazy.
01:15:18.440 So drunken
01:15:19.100 Jason we'll
01:15:19.700 see if he
01:15:20.060 comes back.
01:15:21.100 He got real
01:15:21.680 quiet when I
01:15:22.360 asked him if
01:15:22.780 he's drunk.
01:15:24.240 Because you're
01:15:24.760 probably drunk
01:15:25.280 aren't you?
01:15:26.700 Yeah.
01:15:27.500 I know it's
01:15:27.940 the morning but
01:15:28.660 I'll bet you're
01:15:29.080 drunk.
01:15:30.180 So the
01:15:35.420 fighting maps
01:15:36.140 are good
01:15:36.920 for him.
01:15:38.860 University of
01:15:39.800 California has
01:15:40.680 got some
01:15:41.080 conflict.
01:15:42.160 150
01:15:42.660 professors are
01:15:45.440 condemning the
01:15:46.100 school's
01:15:46.800 president,
01:15:48.280 the University
01:15:48.760 of California's
01:15:49.560 president's
01:15:50.360 viewpoint because
01:15:51.880 he wants to
01:15:52.660 make some
01:15:52.960 changes and
01:15:54.260 he wants to
01:15:54.860 the teachers,
01:15:57.840 professors to
01:15:58.660 have more
01:15:59.040 neutral opinions
01:16:00.000 on things
01:16:00.460 like climate
01:16:00.960 change and
01:16:02.300 Middle East
01:16:02.960 atrocities.
01:16:06.460 And people
01:16:07.360 are saying,
01:16:08.080 how could we
01:16:09.380 have a neutral
01:16:10.240 opinion on
01:16:10.960 atrocities?
01:16:13.920 But of course
01:16:14.880 he doesn't mean
01:16:15.440 that.
01:16:16.240 He means the
01:16:17.060 whole context
01:16:18.100 that includes
01:16:18.700 the atrocities.
01:16:19.300 politics.
01:16:19.800 Now, is it a
01:16:21.200 good idea for
01:16:22.780 educators to
01:16:24.200 try to be
01:16:24.720 objective and
01:16:26.060 not insert
01:16:26.720 their opinion
01:16:27.340 into politics
01:16:30.540 and the
01:16:30.860 news?
01:16:31.800 Well, like
01:16:33.040 your common
01:16:33.520 sense says,
01:16:34.580 yes, that's a
01:16:35.200 good idea.
01:16:36.040 You don't want
01:16:36.840 these teachers
01:16:37.440 propagandizing
01:16:38.440 people.
01:16:39.500 But here's the
01:16:40.220 second question.
01:16:41.260 Is it
01:16:41.980 possible?
01:16:43.420 No.
01:16:44.920 No, it's not
01:16:45.440 possible.
01:16:45.840 You can't
01:16:46.740 not inject
01:16:47.620 opinion into
01:16:49.000 world events.
01:16:50.800 That's not a
01:16:51.740 thing.
01:16:52.500 Because just the
01:16:53.780 word choice and
01:16:54.760 what you leave
01:16:55.300 out and what
01:16:55.980 you emphasize,
01:16:57.680 your opinion
01:16:58.360 will always be
01:16:59.040 in it.
01:17:00.300 So it's
01:17:01.160 impossible.
01:17:03.240 So the
01:17:03.940 suggestion is to
01:17:04.840 do something
01:17:05.300 that's literally
01:17:05.900 impossible.
01:17:06.520 and people
01:17:09.360 are complaining.
01:17:12.060 So I
01:17:12.860 don't know.
01:17:13.240 I think it's
01:17:13.600 just more of a
01:17:14.480 sign that the
01:17:16.360 higher levels
01:17:18.640 of education
01:17:19.400 don't know how
01:17:21.400 to educate.
01:17:22.820 Because they
01:17:23.440 don't know if
01:17:24.020 they should give
01:17:24.540 an opinion or
01:17:26.300 they should not
01:17:26.820 give an opinion
01:17:27.380 and it would
01:17:28.380 completely change
01:17:29.560 what you were
01:17:30.000 taught.
01:17:30.800 If you can't
01:17:31.340 figure that part
01:17:31.980 out.
01:17:33.080 So I side
01:17:34.880 with the news
01:17:35.620 people who say
01:17:36.280 that all
01:17:36.680 news is
01:17:37.140 opinion.
01:17:38.680 And that
01:17:39.040 includes Ida
01:17:40.560 Bay Wells
01:17:41.600 who's the
01:17:43.260 what was it
01:17:44.760 the 16
01:17:45.880 whatever project.
01:17:47.680 So yeah
01:17:49.240 the 1619
01:17:50.080 author.
01:17:53.540 She said
01:17:54.620 that news
01:17:55.820 people have
01:17:56.540 to be
01:17:57.000 have to be
01:17:58.200 opinionated
01:17:58.900 and biased
01:17:59.980 not biased
01:18:01.200 but opinionated
01:18:02.760 because that's
01:18:03.920 the only
01:18:04.180 reasonable
01:18:04.620 thing.
01:18:04.980 I would
01:18:06.560 argue that
01:18:07.140 that's always
01:18:07.720 been true.
01:18:08.240 Oh George
01:18:09.260 Santos has
01:18:09.840 been expelled.
01:18:11.460 Breaking news.
01:18:13.160 George Santos
01:18:13.840 has been
01:18:14.460 expelled.
01:18:15.520 Is that a
01:18:16.100 real thing?
01:18:17.400 Well we'll find
01:18:18.140 out about that.
01:18:19.360 Yeah I don't
01:18:19.840 think that it's
01:18:20.440 realistic to expect
01:18:21.420 people to not put
01:18:22.280 their opinion in
01:18:23.260 their teaching
01:18:23.920 because how can
01:18:25.440 you do that?
01:18:26.340 I mean seriously
01:18:26.960 how can you do
01:18:27.760 that?
01:18:28.040 but as a
01:18:31.200 standard
01:18:31.720 it might make
01:18:33.180 sense to get
01:18:33.760 as close to
01:18:34.460 it as you
01:18:34.840 can.
01:18:36.180 So I don't
01:18:37.840 hate that
01:18:38.360 but the
01:18:40.420 question was
01:18:40.960 how do they
01:18:41.380 teach climate
01:18:42.300 change?
01:18:44.760 How would
01:18:45.160 you treat
01:18:45.560 imagine you
01:18:46.840 thought that
01:18:47.300 climate change
01:18:48.040 was an
01:18:48.460 existential threat.
01:18:50.720 You're a
01:18:51.240 professor and
01:18:52.360 you really
01:18:52.760 believe it
01:18:53.240 and maybe
01:18:55.640 it's true.
01:18:56.840 I don't know
01:18:57.360 what's true
01:18:57.720 but maybe it
01:18:58.800 is.
01:19:00.260 How could you
01:19:00.820 possibly allow
01:19:01.960 the critics
01:19:02.860 to get equal
01:19:04.360 voice in that
01:19:05.100 conversation if
01:19:06.280 you thought one
01:19:06.860 would kill the
01:19:07.500 world and the
01:19:08.860 other would save
01:19:09.480 the world and
01:19:10.560 you're going to
01:19:10.880 ask your
01:19:11.360 professor to be
01:19:12.540 unbiased about
01:19:13.360 that?
01:19:14.600 How?
01:19:16.000 Because here's
01:19:16.600 the problem.
01:19:17.860 If you're
01:19:18.360 unbiased about
01:19:19.240 it the skeptics
01:19:20.060 win.
01:19:22.420 Sorry.
01:19:24.100 The skeptics
01:19:24.680 just have a
01:19:25.260 stronger argument.
01:19:26.440 It doesn't
01:19:26.820 mean they're
01:19:27.160 right.
01:19:28.360 It doesn't
01:19:28.740 mean they're
01:19:29.060 right.
01:19:29.940 I mean that
01:19:30.480 if you had
01:19:30.940 an honest
01:19:31.540 debate with
01:19:32.980 the skeptics
01:19:33.680 and the
01:19:34.200 pro-climate
01:19:35.240 alarm people
01:19:36.080 I believe the
01:19:37.280 skeptics would
01:19:37.920 win 100% of
01:19:38.780 the time if
01:19:39.900 you had the
01:19:40.200 right skeptics.
01:19:41.300 Not all of
01:19:41.960 them.
01:19:42.140 Some of them
01:19:42.500 were frauds.
01:19:44.980 And it's not
01:19:45.580 because, and I
01:19:46.420 want to be clear
01:19:46.900 about this, it's
01:19:47.860 not because I
01:19:48.700 know that
01:19:50.360 climate change
01:19:51.320 is or is not
01:19:52.020 real.
01:19:52.260 I don't
01:19:53.120 have magic
01:19:53.660 abilities.
01:19:54.500 What I know
01:19:54.980 is that the
01:19:55.440 argument will
01:19:56.720 sound more
01:19:57.340 persuasive.
01:19:58.700 Because when
01:19:59.380 you say, when I
01:20:00.680 say, for example,
01:20:01.880 do you really
01:20:02.360 think the
01:20:03.000 scientists can
01:20:03.640 measure the
01:20:04.400 temperature of
01:20:05.680 the planet?
01:20:07.540 And that they're
01:20:08.480 accurate within a
01:20:09.400 half a degree or
01:20:10.420 something?
01:20:10.780 Which you would
01:20:11.180 have to be.
01:20:13.500 People just
01:20:14.260 laugh at that.
01:20:15.320 They go, well,
01:20:15.900 you know, if you've
01:20:17.820 ever worked in a
01:20:18.480 big company and
01:20:19.940 you know how much
01:20:20.520 bullshit big
01:20:21.240 companies tell
01:20:22.140 their public and
01:20:23.420 tell the
01:20:23.760 customers, you
01:20:25.080 know that's not
01:20:25.860 a thing.
01:20:27.160 You know that's
01:20:28.060 not a thing.
01:20:29.320 Every part of
01:20:30.220 your common
01:20:30.680 sense tells you,
01:20:32.560 no, they
01:20:33.120 didn't put
01:20:33.620 thermometers around
01:20:36.260 the world and
01:20:37.520 then track it for
01:20:38.360 a hundred years and
01:20:39.400 they were accurate
01:20:40.060 to a half a
01:20:40.720 percent.
01:20:43.000 Right?
01:20:43.780 If you put me on
01:20:44.820 that debate, I
01:20:46.380 would slaughter a
01:20:48.340 scientist who knew
01:20:49.240 a hundred times
01:20:49.900 more than me.
01:20:51.380 Because what's the
01:20:52.100 scientist going to
01:20:52.820 say?
01:20:53.760 Scientist is going
01:20:54.520 to say, but
01:20:54.880 here's my detailed
01:20:57.540 scientific study
01:20:58.600 that's peer
01:20:59.600 reviewed.
01:21:00.880 And I'll say,
01:21:01.640 what percentage of
01:21:02.420 peer reviewed
01:21:02.880 things are true?
01:21:04.540 Well, you know,
01:21:05.280 that's our process.
01:21:06.300 I know, but what
01:21:06.900 percentage are
01:21:08.080 true?
01:21:08.800 Well, you know,
01:21:09.420 it's the best
01:21:09.880 process.
01:21:10.500 I know.
01:21:11.460 But what
01:21:11.820 percentage of
01:21:13.480 peer reviewed
01:21:14.000 studies turn out
01:21:14.980 to be true in the
01:21:15.620 long run?
01:21:16.020 Just give me a
01:21:16.680 number.
01:21:17.340 Well, most of the
01:21:18.660 time, is it?
01:21:21.360 Because I've got a
01:21:22.300 study that says it's
01:21:23.100 50% of the time.
01:21:25.040 Half.
01:21:26.440 Now, you tell me
01:21:27.320 this.
01:21:27.880 If you took a
01:21:28.500 bunch of scientists
01:21:29.100 and you said, if
01:21:31.660 you say A is true,
01:21:33.840 you could be happy
01:21:35.240 and live a happy
01:21:36.120 life.
01:21:36.880 If you say B is
01:21:37.820 true, you will be
01:21:38.880 destroyed.
01:21:40.800 Is that science?
01:21:43.440 Right?
01:21:43.720 In other words,
01:21:44.320 the critic argument
01:21:46.300 is just super
01:21:48.320 easy to understand
01:21:49.720 and strong.
01:21:50.920 The argument that
01:21:52.080 we're in trouble
01:21:52.600 and we're all
01:21:53.100 going to die
01:21:53.660 might be right.
01:21:56.300 I don't know.
01:21:57.140 It's too complicated
01:21:57.960 for me to understand.
01:21:59.660 But too complicated
01:22:01.320 and the only people
01:22:02.560 who understand it
01:22:03.400 are making money
01:22:04.100 from it
01:22:04.700 compared to
01:22:06.440 you haven't been
01:22:07.640 right for 40
01:22:08.480 years,
01:22:09.920 half of science
01:22:10.780 is made up,
01:22:11.540 and you're all
01:22:12.480 paid to say
01:22:13.120 it's real.
01:22:14.520 Who wins that
01:22:15.420 debate?
01:22:17.580 And by the way,
01:22:18.600 they convince you
01:22:19.400 that they could
01:22:19.960 put thermometers
01:22:21.340 around the earth
01:22:22.340 and tell you
01:22:23.240 the average
01:22:23.780 temperature of the
01:22:24.500 earth within
01:22:25.020 half a degree.
01:22:27.860 You put me
01:22:28.720 on that panel,
01:22:30.120 I would destroy
01:22:31.380 climate change
01:22:32.380 in one hour
01:22:33.700 as an alarm
01:22:35.880 narrative.
01:22:36.360 But I might be
01:22:36.900 wrong.
01:22:37.760 That's the funny
01:22:38.440 thing.
01:22:38.900 I'm not telling
01:22:39.540 you I'm so right.
01:22:41.540 that my argument
01:22:42.540 would win.
01:22:43.160 It's not because
01:22:43.760 it's right.
01:22:44.920 It's because it's
01:22:45.940 a common sense
01:22:46.960 observable set
01:22:49.300 of arguments.
01:22:50.540 Common sense
01:22:51.200 and observable.
01:22:52.360 The other is,
01:22:53.420 well, I can't
01:22:54.160 even tell what
01:22:55.040 that science is
01:22:55.900 saying,
01:22:56.780 and aren't you
01:22:57.700 paid to say
01:22:58.280 it's real?
01:23:01.440 Yeah.
01:23:02.520 Somebody says,
01:23:03.240 you're right,
01:23:03.640 you're wrong.
01:23:04.560 Henry Cruz says,
01:23:05.780 I might be.
01:23:07.040 I might be wrong.
01:23:08.680 That's not one
01:23:09.320 I would bet
01:23:09.740 my life on.
01:23:11.540 Well, credit
01:23:13.080 to Barry Weiss,
01:23:14.920 who, sort of
01:23:16.260 an independent
01:23:16.780 journalist type,
01:23:18.220 broke some big
01:23:19.100 stories.
01:23:20.100 So she's got a
01:23:20.840 news startup
01:23:21.360 called the Free
01:23:21.960 Press, and
01:23:23.620 apparently,
01:23:24.260 especially during
01:23:25.000 this Hamas-Gaza
01:23:27.140 situation, she
01:23:28.860 seems to be
01:23:29.420 getting tons of
01:23:30.280 attention for not
01:23:32.260 being a biased
01:23:34.320 source of news,
01:23:35.340 I guess.
01:23:36.160 So good for her.
01:23:37.140 I just want to
01:23:38.060 give her a shout-out
01:23:39.200 that I think
01:23:40.660 Barry Weiss has
01:23:41.520 been one of
01:23:42.520 the most
01:23:44.800 useful citizens
01:23:45.960 in the United
01:23:47.460 States over the
01:23:48.380 past few years
01:23:49.220 by being
01:23:50.560 aggressively
01:23:51.720 dedicated to
01:23:53.820 what's real
01:23:54.320 and being
01:23:55.920 unwilling to
01:23:57.480 play along
01:23:58.400 with what's
01:23:58.840 not real.
01:24:00.080 So all
01:24:01.140 credit to her,
01:24:02.260 and apparently
01:24:03.200 the Free
01:24:03.620 Press is
01:24:04.740 being quoted
01:24:05.280 by notable
01:24:06.280 people and
01:24:07.300 getting a lot
01:24:07.740 of attention,
01:24:08.440 and I'd like
01:24:08.880 her to get a
01:24:09.420 little bit of
01:24:09.840 extra attention,
01:24:10.860 because when you
01:24:11.560 do work that
01:24:12.120 good, maybe
01:24:13.600 good things
01:24:14.100 should come
01:24:14.640 to you.
01:24:17.580 All right.
01:24:18.720 Nature self-regulates.
01:24:20.280 It does not go
01:24:20.940 into cascade
01:24:21.660 failure.
01:24:22.200 Yeah, so the
01:24:23.540 climate alarmists
01:24:24.940 have an argument
01:24:26.920 that, oh yeah,
01:24:27.980 maybe you can't
01:24:28.780 see what's
01:24:29.540 going wrong,
01:24:30.160 but when it
01:24:30.540 reaches this
01:24:31.240 breaking point,
01:24:33.220 you know, that's
01:24:33.720 where everything
01:24:34.220 will fall apart.
01:24:36.480 I have no
01:24:37.540 confidence that
01:24:39.220 our scientists
01:24:39.960 can look at the
01:24:40.760 complexity of
01:24:41.940 all the systems
01:24:43.300 around our
01:24:45.000 globe, and
01:24:46.080 they can tell
01:24:46.560 us that there's
01:24:47.300 an upcoming
01:24:48.020 fall-off-a-cliff
01:24:49.460 point.
01:24:49.760 There might
01:24:52.820 be, but how
01:24:54.360 would you
01:24:54.620 predict that?
01:24:56.100 That would be
01:24:56.560 the hardest
01:24:57.000 thing you could
01:24:57.540 possibly predict
01:24:58.500 in an environment
01:24:59.800 where they can't
01:25:00.460 predict anything.
01:25:02.680 And I want to
01:25:04.200 say this.
01:25:06.860 Prediction is
01:25:07.800 truth, right?
01:25:08.980 If you predicted
01:25:09.960 accurately in the
01:25:11.680 past, you
01:25:12.880 probably have
01:25:13.380 something like
01:25:13.920 truth.
01:25:15.180 But if you
01:25:15.940 can't predict,
01:25:16.540 you can't.
01:25:16.900 Now, the
01:25:17.320 history of
01:25:17.860 climate is
01:25:18.460 they've
01:25:18.740 predicted
01:25:19.060 terrible, but
01:25:20.700 if you ask
01:25:21.300 them, they'd
01:25:22.980 say, no, our
01:25:23.740 models are
01:25:24.260 right on.
01:25:25.080 Oh, yeah, maybe
01:25:26.000 30 years ago we
01:25:26.960 had some crazy
01:25:27.680 ideas, but those
01:25:28.520 guys are all
01:25:28.980 dead.
01:25:30.260 Current batch
01:25:30.960 of scientists
01:25:31.680 finally got it
01:25:32.420 right, and we
01:25:33.480 got all these
01:25:33.920 models.
01:25:34.860 If you haven't
01:25:35.640 heard me explain
01:25:36.340 why the models
01:25:37.040 are BS, allow
01:25:38.620 me to do it
01:25:39.220 this way.
01:25:40.920 Nobody can
01:25:41.560 predict the
01:25:42.060 future.
01:25:44.020 You can't do
01:25:44.760 it with math.
01:25:45.460 Nobody can
01:25:47.140 predict the
01:25:47.600 future.
01:25:49.220 That's not a
01:25:50.020 thing.
01:25:52.140 It's also not
01:25:53.180 what prediction
01:25:54.040 models are for.
01:25:56.240 Models are not
01:25:57.040 for predicting the
01:25:57.820 future.
01:25:58.520 That's not even
01:25:59.060 the point of
01:25:59.540 them.
01:26:00.040 Do you know
01:26:00.300 what they're
01:26:00.540 for?
01:26:01.560 They're for
01:26:02.240 to tell you
01:26:03.120 what the
01:26:03.700 cone of
01:26:04.260 possibility is,
01:26:05.880 from the
01:26:07.460 worst case to
01:26:08.080 the best case.
01:26:09.440 But where it
01:26:10.100 is within that
01:26:10.940 cone, nobody
01:26:12.620 can predict
01:26:13.100 that.
01:26:13.420 So that's
01:26:15.220 the first
01:26:15.520 thing.
01:26:16.600 It's way too
01:26:17.280 complicated, too
01:26:18.100 many variables,
01:26:19.120 nobody can
01:26:19.580 predict it.
01:26:22.500 But in
01:26:23.140 general, that's
01:26:25.740 true of a lot
01:26:26.600 of things.
01:26:28.020 Now, that's
01:26:28.560 also why I'm
01:26:29.200 suspicious of
01:26:30.200 the large
01:26:30.860 language model
01:26:31.640 AI.
01:26:33.260 If the
01:26:33.840 large language
01:26:34.420 model was
01:26:34.940 built to
01:26:36.100 predict what
01:26:36.800 the next
01:26:37.480 word in a
01:26:38.320 sequence would
01:26:38.900 be, and
01:26:39.460 that's how it
01:26:39.980 pretends to be
01:26:40.580 intelligent, how
01:26:42.060 come it can't
01:26:42.700 do it when I
01:26:43.220 ask it to
01:26:43.660 do it, try
01:26:44.980 going to your
01:26:45.540 large language
01:26:46.200 model and
01:26:46.900 give it half a
01:26:47.680 sentence and
01:26:48.860 see if it can
01:26:49.480 accurately complete
01:26:50.480 the sentence.
01:26:52.020 Because that's
01:26:52.580 what it's built
01:26:53.040 to do, right?
01:26:54.120 It's built to
01:26:54.780 do literally
01:26:55.460 that, complete
01:26:56.880 the sentence.
01:26:58.400 Try it.
01:27:00.060 Give it half a
01:27:01.000 sentence and
01:27:01.640 see if it can
01:27:02.280 complete the
01:27:02.840 sentence with
01:27:03.920 what you had
01:27:04.440 in your mind.
01:27:05.640 Not that it
01:27:06.160 can complete it,
01:27:06.960 obviously it can
01:27:07.680 complete it, but
01:27:08.680 can it complete it
01:27:09.420 with what you
01:27:09.820 had in mind?
01:27:10.380 Because if it
01:27:12.000 can, then it's
01:27:12.920 doing what they
01:27:13.480 say.
01:27:14.760 It knows that
01:27:15.600 you're likely to
01:27:16.500 say this.
01:27:17.140 Now you'd have to
01:27:17.700 repeat the thing
01:27:19.160 to make sure that
01:27:20.260 it's repeatable.
01:27:22.060 But if it can't
01:27:22.980 fill in the
01:27:23.720 sentence that you
01:27:24.360 give it as just
01:27:25.180 a test, is that
01:27:27.160 how it's thinking?
01:27:29.020 The only time it
01:27:29.980 can't do it is when
01:27:30.780 you give it the
01:27:31.280 first part of the
01:27:31.920 sentence, but it
01:27:33.320 can do it
01:27:33.740 otherwise?
01:27:35.700 Here's what I
01:27:36.380 think.
01:27:37.300 I think the
01:27:38.060 reason it can't
01:27:38.740 complete your
01:27:39.300 sentence is that
01:27:40.360 it's because it
01:27:41.180 can't predict the
01:27:41.920 future.
01:27:44.180 And if it could
01:27:45.060 complete your
01:27:45.680 sentence, it
01:27:46.260 could predict the
01:27:48.960 future, and it's
01:27:50.060 not a thing.
01:27:52.360 Now I'm not sure
01:27:53.200 that's a good
01:27:53.640 point.
01:27:54.280 I haven't thought
01:27:54.900 it through, but I
01:27:55.920 just don't understand
01:27:56.680 why it can't
01:27:57.320 complete my
01:27:57.880 sentence if that's
01:27:59.100 the entire basis
01:27:59.900 for its intelligence
01:28:00.760 is completing
01:28:01.480 sentences.
01:28:02.980 It's a little
01:28:03.620 mystery to me.
01:28:05.120 So I would say
01:28:06.220 that any time
01:28:06.960 anybody tells you
01:28:07.840 they have a secret
01:28:09.040 process that you
01:28:09.960 don't fully
01:28:10.460 understand that
01:28:11.840 can predict the
01:28:12.580 future, they do
01:28:14.420 not have a secret
01:28:16.720 process that you
01:28:17.580 don't understand
01:28:18.320 that can predict
01:28:19.440 the future.
01:28:20.780 Because nobody's
01:28:22.000 done it yet.
01:28:23.620 They haven't done
01:28:24.120 it with the stock
01:28:24.760 market.
01:28:25.380 They haven't done
01:28:25.860 it with anything.
01:28:27.900 It's just not a
01:28:28.580 thing in complex
01:28:30.060 systems.
01:28:30.860 Now somebody said,
01:28:31.620 but Scott, NASA
01:28:33.740 predicted enough to
01:28:36.800 send a ship to the
01:28:38.260 moon and back.
01:28:39.840 And that's a lot
01:28:40.400 of predicting.
01:28:41.800 To which I say,
01:28:42.940 it's a lot of
01:28:43.580 predicting with
01:28:44.920 very few variables
01:28:46.460 in physics.
01:28:48.380 You know, you've
01:28:48.660 got your gravity
01:28:49.320 and your, you
01:28:50.640 know, basically
01:28:51.280 things that we
01:28:52.060 have formulas for
01:28:52.960 that never fail,
01:28:54.800 basically.
01:28:56.040 So that makes
01:28:57.040 sense.
01:28:57.960 Because even
01:28:59.160 though your mind
01:29:00.300 says that going
01:29:01.000 to space is
01:29:01.660 complicated, it's
01:29:03.180 not complicated in
01:29:04.480 terms of the
01:29:05.020 rules of physics.
01:29:05.900 physics, would
01:29:07.260 you buy that?
01:29:09.300 It's not
01:29:09.960 complicated in
01:29:10.740 terms of physics,
01:29:12.160 right?
01:29:13.860 Whereas the
01:29:14.560 weather is
01:29:15.320 insanely complicated
01:29:16.660 in ways we can't
01:29:17.640 even know what
01:29:18.240 the variables are
01:29:19.020 exactly.
01:29:20.480 Yeah, very
01:29:20.920 different.
01:29:24.320 It's not
01:29:24.960 complicated, just
01:29:25.700 difficult, that is
01:29:26.560 correct.
01:29:29.220 All right.
01:29:29.600 So that's
01:29:35.300 what we know.
01:29:37.060 Ladies and
01:29:37.660 gentlemen, are
01:29:38.200 there any stories
01:29:38.820 I left out?
01:29:47.480 I think I've
01:29:48.260 gotten it all.
01:29:49.060 We'll catch up
01:29:49.600 with the George
01:29:50.360 Santos story in a
01:29:51.600 little bit.
01:29:52.320 But remember, get
01:29:53.580 your visual persuasion
01:29:54.920 right, and your
01:29:56.080 whole life will be
01:29:56.920 better.
01:29:57.920 It's a big, big
01:29:58.640 deal.
01:30:04.680 What?
01:30:06.560 Henry Cruz is
01:30:07.560 making up some
01:30:08.100 news.
01:30:10.820 Argentina, is
01:30:12.000 there some
01:30:12.280 news there?
01:30:21.320 Sandra Day
01:30:22.100 O'Connor has
01:30:23.360 passed away.
01:30:28.640 Troops in
01:30:29.460 Vegas.
01:30:32.260 Dr.
01:30:32.960 Funk Juice is
01:30:35.280 asking me next
01:30:36.280 time the other
01:30:38.320 story about the
01:30:38.900 troops in Vegas.
01:30:39.840 I saw your DM.
01:30:42.180 I'm missing the
01:30:43.260 context.
01:30:44.060 I didn't understand
01:30:44.660 the context.
01:30:47.440 So there are some
01:30:48.920 troops in Las
01:30:51.200 Vegas?
01:30:52.680 For what?
01:30:54.020 I don't know.
01:30:54.500 Are there
01:30:58.780 federal troops?
01:31:02.540 We talk about
01:31:03.580 Peter Zan.
01:31:04.780 He quit X.
01:31:11.100 I'm the guy who
01:31:12.160 pointed you toward
01:31:12.960 Robert Seffer.
01:31:14.160 You called him
01:31:14.940 racist?
01:31:16.260 No, I didn't.
01:31:17.880 I didn't call him
01:31:18.820 a racist.
01:31:19.240 You know, there
01:31:22.400 really needs to be
01:31:23.420 a filter for the
01:31:24.760 all caps.
01:31:26.280 If YouTube could
01:31:27.440 add the filter to
01:31:29.120 just stop the
01:31:31.000 all caps people,
01:31:32.480 you would almost
01:31:33.640 see no trolls at
01:31:35.800 all.
01:31:36.640 Because trolls
01:31:37.280 don't know how to
01:31:38.260 use anything but
01:31:39.660 all caps.
01:31:42.300 It's like they
01:31:43.140 don't know how to
01:31:43.680 turn that ability
01:31:44.540 off.
01:31:44.860 Let's see.
01:31:50.980 YouTube will not
01:31:51.840 replace us.
01:31:57.240 Yeah, no, I
01:31:58.080 didn't.
01:31:58.700 Your all caps
01:31:59.640 continue to reveal
01:32:01.280 you as the troll
01:32:02.680 that you are.
01:32:04.480 All right.
01:32:06.620 Everybody,
01:32:09.460 I'm going to say
01:32:10.200 bye to YouTube.
01:32:11.380 I'm going to talk
01:32:11.820 to the locals for
01:32:12.460 a minute.
01:32:13.420 And I will see
01:32:14.020 you later.
01:32:15.600 Bye.
01:32:15.960 Bye.
01:32:17.160 Bye.
01:32:17.660 Bye.
01:32:17.880 Bye.
01:32:18.580 Bye.
01:32:22.240 Bye.
01:32:23.620 Bye.
01:32:24.840 Bye.
01:32:26.400 Bye.
01:32:33.400 Bye.
01:32:37.220 Bye.
01:32:41.760 Bye.
01:32:43.520 Bye.
01:32:43.900 Bye.
01:32:44.100 Bye.
