Let me know if I just stopped broadcasting on Locals
00:00:31.820
The best time you've ever had in your whole, whole life.
00:00:35.240
And if you'd like to take it up to levels that are even higher,
00:00:42.420
all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass,
00:00:44.340
a tank or a chalice, a canteen, a jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:54.440
The dopamine hit of the day thing makes everything better.
00:01:11.640
Well, you already know that coffee can help your cardiovascular disease,
00:01:18.840
cleanse your body, remove toxins from your cells.
00:01:21.460
It can be an antioxidant with fighting inflation and protecting cells from oxidative stress.
00:01:27.660
But did you know that if you add milk to your coffee,
00:01:36.520
It might not do as well as removing toxins or something.
00:01:56.240
Do you like it when I correct myself because I said something wrong?
00:02:08.640
that the way the Panama Canal works is that it fills up the locks with water from a lake?
00:02:21.800
and they just pumped the ocean water into the lock
00:02:30.440
Panama has a lake that's higher than the canal is,
00:02:36.420
so they can just use gravity to take the water from the lake
00:02:42.420
So if you had to pump it, it would be pretty expensive.
00:02:46.960
So when I said the other day that the Panama Canal was getting less efficient
00:02:57.120
there's a bit of a drought that may be affecting the lake,
00:03:03.400
no, no, it's not the amount of water they have,
00:03:10.700
But anyway, the point is the Panama Canal is not as efficient as it had been.
00:03:20.000
Neuroscience News says there's an anti-inflammatory drug
00:03:22.620
that might boost motivation if you're depressed.
00:03:36.580
And the answer is, as I've told you one billion times,
00:03:47.240
you can fix your body because your body is your brain.
00:03:55.520
you make your body work better, more efficiently,
00:04:13.460
as much as I love talking about indoor vertical farms,
00:04:23.560
that's going to make just a whole bunch of strawberries,
00:04:32.780
So here's what's new and interesting about this.
00:05:34.820
has something about half the size of your house
00:05:54.040
But I think you're going to have to grow the food
00:06:21.660
Because Elon Musk is big about the environment.
00:06:27.700
So they do actually agree on some pretty big stuff.
