00:00:00.000 And let's check in on the stocks.
00:00:06.020 Yeah, down a little bit.
00:00:09.380 Could be better.
00:00:12.080 But we'll get our comments working here,
00:00:14.680 and then I'll give you the show you deserve.
00:00:19.440 Because you deserve it.
00:00:21.920 You do.
00:00:22.800 You totally deserve it.
00:00:30.000 Do, do, do, do.
00:00:34.440 Good morning, everybody,
00:00:41.300 and welcome to the highlight of human existence.
00:00:44.880 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams,
00:00:46.540 and you've never had a better time.
00:00:47.940 But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels,
00:00:51.360 then nobody can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains.
00:00:55.380 All you need is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or chelsis,
00:00:58.780 dye in a canteen, jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind,
00:01:03.060 and fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:01:05.060 I like coffee.
00:01:06.860 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure
00:01:09.180 of the dopamine hit of the day,
00:01:10.740 the thing that makes everything better.
00:01:12.440 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.
00:01:16.740 Go.
00:01:23.040 Ah, tremendous.
00:01:24.800 Gets better every time.
00:01:26.160 Well, I've got to tell you,
00:01:32.220 I had the best day yesterday.
00:01:38.800 The strangest thing about yesterday is,
00:01:41.720 for if there's anybody here who didn't hear,
00:01:44.920 I was talking about my own cancer situation.
00:01:48.560 And that created a tsunami of love
00:01:57.340 that I've never experienced before.
00:02:00.700 And the most incredible time
00:02:04.720 was Dr. Hypnosis and Owen Gregorian
00:02:10.260 did a space in which people were invited
00:02:14.260 to talk about me, sorry,
00:02:18.320 and what impact that had on their lives.
00:02:22.640 Now, unbeknownst to most of you
00:02:24.640 who were on that spaces,
00:02:27.760 I was listening.
00:02:30.100 So I didn't catch all of it.
00:02:32.060 It was over four hours.
00:02:33.420 But for about, I don't know,
00:02:36.820 two and a half hours,
00:02:38.500 I got to listen like I was at my own funeral,
00:02:42.780 and people were saying one good thing
00:02:46.240 about me after another.
00:02:48.360 But the part I didn't know
00:02:50.020 was how much I had changed people's lives.
00:02:53.380 And so people just had one story after another
00:02:57.580 of, you know,
00:02:59.120 how they'd gone from a bad situation
00:03:02.300 to a good situation
00:03:03.480 because of something I said
00:03:05.780 or something I saw in my books
00:03:07.460 or some other thing.
00:03:10.040 And I got to tell you,
00:03:12.060 if you could have one day in your life
00:03:16.340 to experience that,
00:03:19.460 it was indescribable.
00:03:23.380 It was beyond amazing.
00:03:27.180 And I had no idea.
00:03:31.360 So I think somebody said
00:03:33.320 that I didn't know
00:03:34.100 how much impact I had on the world.
00:03:37.120 I thought I had a lot,
00:03:39.700 but apparently I had underestimated.
00:03:43.900 And so I'm humbled,
00:03:47.400 and it just made everything seem worthwhile.
00:03:54.380 Everything was worthwhile.
00:03:56.440 So I'll hang on as long as I can
00:03:58.540 to make sure you get some extra benefit.
00:04:03.200 And we don't need to talk about it every day.
00:04:07.300 Things will go the way things go.
00:04:10.400 But we'll just do the show today,
00:04:12.780 if you don't mind.
00:04:13.540 It looks like we'll have some extra people here.
00:04:19.180 Well, that's good.
00:04:21.500 Well, apparently, according to ZME Science,
00:04:24.880 there's the first mass-produced flying car
00:04:28.180 is ready to go.
00:04:29.760 So for $1 million,
00:04:31.600 you'll be able to get a flying car.
00:04:34.360 But how many people would want a flying car?
00:04:39.660 Because you'd have to have a pilot's license.
00:04:44.640 So the car part, of course,
00:04:49.680 would not be ideal, you know,
00:04:51.600 because the wings are extra,
00:04:54.240 and they fold on the car.
00:04:55.780 So it probably gives terrible mileage.
00:04:57.540 It doesn't look like it would be the best car,
00:05:01.900 but it is a flying car.
00:05:04.860 It's already built.
00:05:07.680 And they're ready to go into mass production.
00:05:10.220 So in 2026,
00:05:12.680 you can get your own flying car.
00:05:15.440 You know, that's always been the joke.
00:05:18.120 Where's my flying car?
00:05:20.560 Well, here it is.
00:05:22.600 Apparently, there's going to be a flying car.
00:05:24.880 We'll see if they actually do mass-produce.
00:05:28.260 They believe there's a gigantic market for flying cars.
00:05:32.980 I don't think so.
00:05:35.780 I think they're going to find out
00:05:37.660 that the market for flying cars
00:05:39.920 is not nearly as big as they think it is.
00:05:44.640 Well, the Wall Street Journal says
00:05:46.300 that Home Depot posted higher than expected sales
00:05:51.500 because they say that customers
00:05:54.720 continue to spend on smaller projects.
00:05:58.620 How do they know that they're spending
00:05:59.960 on smaller projects?
00:06:01.220 I guess each sale is smaller.
00:06:03.260 And so far, there's no tariff impact.
00:06:09.280 But Home Depot says
00:06:10.620 that they're not going to raise prices
00:06:12.480 because of tariffs.
00:06:14.440 Now, that would be opposite of what Walmart said.
00:06:18.820 Walmart's going to raise prices.
00:06:20.800 But Home Depot says they will not.
00:06:25.040 More than half of what the company sells
00:06:27.140 at Home Depot comes from the U.S.
00:06:29.560 and they just think
00:06:33.000 it looks like they're going to just eat the tariffs
00:06:36.360 so they're not going to pass it along.
00:06:39.600 So that's kind of exciting.
00:06:43.320 So according to Just the News,
00:06:47.180 yesterday I talked about
00:06:49.700 the mayor of Chicago,
00:06:52.560 Brandon Johnson.
00:06:53.480 he was at a church
00:06:57.380 and he was filmed
00:06:58.440 talking about his diversity goals.
00:07:03.520 And this is what he said.
00:07:06.120 He said,
00:07:06.940 there are some detractors
00:07:08.560 that will try and push back on me
00:07:10.280 and say,
00:07:10.960 the only thing the mayor talks about
00:07:12.920 is the hiring of black people.
00:07:14.980 Johnson said,
00:07:16.180 no,
00:07:16.780 what I'm saying is
00:07:18.080 when you hire our people,
00:07:20.680 we always look out for everybody else.
00:07:23.680 We are the most generous people
00:07:25.160 on the planet.
00:07:27.740 So apparently
00:07:28.880 the Justice Department
00:07:30.220 is going to launch an investigation
00:07:31.740 because what he just said
00:07:35.220 is really illegal.
00:07:37.980 So he was trying to make it a positive thing.
00:07:41.780 It's like,
00:07:42.160 hey,
00:07:43.640 look at me.
00:07:44.980 I'm hiring only black people
00:07:46.960 because black people
00:07:47.980 are more generous.
00:07:48.920 And that's why
00:07:51.720 I recommend
00:07:53.040 that you spend more time
00:07:54.620 in all black neighborhoods
00:07:55.960 because of the generosity.
00:07:59.220 According to
00:08:00.020 Mayor Brandon Johnson,
00:08:02.580 you know,
00:08:02.960 if you go to an all black neighborhood,
00:08:04.860 the first thing people
00:08:06.360 are going to do
00:08:06.900 is say,
00:08:07.520 hey,
00:08:08.340 are you okay?
00:08:09.260 Do you need anything?
00:08:10.760 Is there anything
00:08:11.780 I can get you?
00:08:14.020 Because
00:08:14.500 they're the most generous people
00:08:17.280 in the whole world.
00:08:18.920 Well,
00:08:22.300 the
00:08:22.600 America First Legal.
00:08:26.060 Now,
00:08:26.560 do you know who that is,
00:08:28.100 America First Legal?
00:08:29.520 I think Stephen Miller
00:08:30.600 was behind this.
00:08:32.700 But
00:08:32.960 I felt like
00:08:34.200 the Republicans
00:08:35.080 were
00:08:35.620 sort of
00:08:36.840 unarmed
00:08:38.420 with all the lawfare.
00:08:40.980 but
00:08:42.240 now
00:08:42.620 the
00:08:42.840 America First Legal,
00:08:44.200 which is
00:08:44.620 a bunch of lawyers
00:08:45.600 who go after things
00:08:47.000 that
00:08:47.360 Republicans
00:08:49.360 want to go after,
00:08:51.160 is
00:08:51.900 just doing
00:08:52.680 an amazing job.
00:08:54.500 And
00:08:54.840 right now
00:08:55.960 they're going after
00:08:57.080 Letitia James.
00:08:59.500 And they filed
00:09:00.360 a formal
00:09:01.160 bar complaint
00:09:02.260 with New York State
00:09:03.260 Grievance Committee.
00:09:05.480 Now,
00:09:06.000 how many of you knew
00:09:06.940 that there's a
00:09:07.860 New York State
00:09:08.620 Grievance Committee?
00:09:09.660 Did you know that?
00:09:14.000 There's a
00:09:14.720 New York State
00:09:15.460 Grievance Committee.
00:09:17.540 Who needs a
00:09:18.600 Grievance Committee?
00:09:20.360 Well,
00:09:20.680 I guess New York.
00:09:22.660 Anyway,
00:09:23.460 so the idea is
00:09:24.300 they're trying to
00:09:25.040 get her disbarred
00:09:26.780 because of
00:09:28.680 allegations
00:09:29.320 of
00:09:29.920 mortgage
00:09:31.480 fraud.
00:09:33.180 Now,
00:09:33.720 the mortgage
00:09:34.220 fraud
00:09:34.580 has not been
00:09:35.540 demonstrated
00:09:37.720 in court.
00:09:38.840 So she doesn't
00:09:39.580 have any kind
00:09:40.220 of a legal
00:09:40.840 finding of that.
00:09:42.160 But that's
00:09:42.980 pending.
00:09:44.800 And so
00:09:45.660 I wonder
00:09:46.060 if that's enough.
00:09:46.860 But apparently
00:09:47.340 there is
00:09:47.920 some history
00:09:48.800 that if
00:09:50.600 you're a
00:09:51.240 lawyer
00:09:51.480 and you do
00:09:52.060 some mortgage
00:09:52.600 fraud,
00:09:53.200 you do get
00:09:54.020 disbarred.
00:09:54.660 So New York
00:09:56.640 has historically
00:09:57.780 disbarred attorneys
00:09:58.860 who engage
00:09:59.500 in mortgage
00:10:00.060 fraud.
00:10:01.140 So the
00:10:01.760 odds of this
00:10:03.760 turning into
00:10:04.880 a disbarment
00:10:06.380 are fairly
00:10:08.020 good.
00:10:09.320 The only thing
00:10:10.040 I don't know
00:10:10.640 is if they're
00:10:11.200 going to wait
00:10:11.680 for the
00:10:13.720 courts to
00:10:14.580 actually rule
00:10:15.360 on it.
00:10:15.980 It seems
00:10:16.320 like they
00:10:16.700 should wait
00:10:17.080 for the
00:10:17.420 court.
00:10:18.540 But maybe
00:10:19.580 they don't
00:10:19.920 need to.
00:10:21.480 Maybe if
00:10:22.240 you're at
00:10:22.540 the bar
00:10:23.640 you can
00:10:24.900 just say
00:10:25.520 well we
00:10:26.340 see the
00:10:26.760 same thing
00:10:27.300 that they
00:10:28.060 were presented
00:10:28.660 in court
00:10:29.160 and it
00:10:29.460 looks bad
00:10:29.900 to us.
00:10:31.000 I don't
00:10:31.360 know.
00:10:31.740 We'll see.
00:10:33.160 Ontario.
00:10:34.100 The wait
00:10:34.720 is over.

00:11:42.020 8647.
00:11:44.000 Now,
00:11:44.600 before I
00:11:45.100 tell you
00:11:45.500 what James
00:11:46.140 Comey
00:11:46.540 said,
00:11:48.540 let me
00:11:49.220 say what
00:11:49.700 all of you
00:11:50.180 are thinking.
00:11:52.140 We can't
00:11:53.140 trust what
00:11:53.740 James Comey
00:11:54.540 says about
00:11:55.520 that 8647
00:11:56.980 thing.
00:11:57.660 That's where
00:11:58.060 he found
00:11:58.420 the seashells.
00:11:59.920 But,
00:12:00.740 here are the
00:12:01.800 things that
00:12:02.500 we think
00:12:03.000 we know.
00:12:03.540 Number one,
00:12:04.820 he did not
00:12:05.660 arrange those
00:12:06.780 shells himself.
00:12:08.640 Rather,
00:12:09.300 he was walking
00:12:10.000 on the beach
00:12:10.600 with his
00:12:11.160 wife,
00:12:12.340 thinking about
00:12:13.360 his new
00:12:13.740 book.
00:12:16.520 Which was
00:12:17.200 funny.
00:12:17.720 He was on
00:12:18.300 one of the
00:12:18.720 shows on
00:12:19.340 TV.
00:12:20.680 And he,
00:12:21.220 you know,
00:12:21.560 since he's
00:12:22.000 selling a
00:12:22.480 new book,
00:12:23.480 he has,
00:12:23.840 you know,
00:12:24.840 I've been in
00:12:25.600 that situation
00:12:26.420 where you have
00:12:28.000 to make sure
00:12:28.580 you mention
00:12:29.100 the book
00:12:29.540 before you
00:12:30.080 run out
00:12:30.440 of time.
00:12:31.740 So,
00:12:32.320 he goes
00:12:32.960 with,
00:12:33.840 I was walking
00:12:34.460 on the beach
00:12:35.100 with my wife,
00:12:36.680 thinking about
00:12:37.860 my new
00:12:38.240 book.
00:12:40.920 And then
00:12:41.600 he says,
00:12:43.100 he or his
00:12:44.500 wife noticed
00:12:45.420 what they
00:12:46.340 thought was
00:12:46.840 an address.
00:12:48.860 And the
00:12:50.100 wife was
00:12:50.840 saying,
00:12:51.800 why would
00:12:52.280 you have
00:12:52.580 an address
00:12:53.320 arranged in
00:12:54.880 shells?
00:12:55.780 Because they
00:12:56.340 didn't know
00:12:56.640 what the
00:12:56.920 8647
00:12:57.900 meant.
00:13:00.220 Now,
00:13:00.540 remember,
00:13:01.440 I'm only
00:13:02.040 telling you
00:13:02.560 what he
00:13:02.920 said.
00:13:03.880 I'm not
00:13:04.340 telling you
00:13:04.780 what I
00:13:05.100 believe.
00:13:05.580 because,
00:13:07.260 you know,
00:13:07.580 not exactly
00:13:08.400 the most
00:13:08.840 credible
00:13:09.300 source.
00:13:11.660 But,
00:13:12.260 he says
00:13:12.960 that his
00:13:13.460 wife worked
00:13:14.500 in restaurants
00:13:15.700 and based
00:13:17.900 on her
00:13:18.340 restaurant
00:13:18.840 experience,
00:13:20.340 86 meant
00:13:21.420 just get
00:13:22.380 rid of.
00:13:23.620 And then
00:13:24.040 he said
00:13:24.580 he had
00:13:25.120 heard it
00:13:25.560 only in
00:13:25.980 the concept
00:13:26.640 of telling
00:13:28.440 people to
00:13:29.120 get out
00:13:29.460 of the
00:13:29.820 place.
00:13:32.260 You know,
00:13:32.480 like leave
00:13:32.940 a place.
00:13:33.520 86,
00:13:35.460 this guy,
00:13:35.980 get him
00:13:36.220 out of
00:13:36.420 here,
00:13:36.740 out of
00:13:37.040 this room.
00:13:38.720 And so
00:13:39.400 that's his
00:13:39.960 version.
00:13:41.200 So he
00:13:41.740 wasn't
00:13:42.680 thinking of
00:13:43.300 any hip
00:13:44.380 man or
00:13:45.240 mafia kind
00:13:47.460 of use.
00:13:48.460 He was
00:13:48.840 just walking
00:13:49.420 on the
00:13:49.740 beach with
00:13:50.160 his wife
00:13:50.660 who worked
00:13:51.560 in a
00:13:51.840 restaurant.
00:13:53.080 Now,
00:13:53.600 I went
00:13:53.880 to Grok
00:13:54.500 and I
00:13:55.300 asked if
00:13:55.800 there's any
00:13:56.320 evidence she
00:13:57.040 worked in
00:13:57.640 a restaurant.
00:13:58.860 And I
00:13:59.180 said,
00:13:59.580 not really.
00:14:00.300 But of
00:14:02.860 course,
00:14:03.160 that wouldn't
00:14:03.560 necessarily be
00:14:04.380 on your
00:14:04.700 resume or
00:14:05.260 anything.
00:14:06.360 So we
00:14:08.900 don't know
00:14:09.320 what's
00:14:09.660 true,
00:14:10.640 but we
00:14:11.900 know that's
00:14:12.460 his story
00:14:13.040 and he's
00:14:13.900 going to
00:14:14.160 stick to
00:14:14.620 it.
00:14:16.340 Well,
00:14:17.120 as I've
00:14:18.220 said to
00:14:18.560 you before,
00:14:19.440 Trump is
00:14:21.600 the best
00:14:22.180 naughty
00:14:23.880 talker of
00:14:24.740 all presidents
00:14:25.380 ever.
00:14:26.740 The things
00:14:27.440 he gets
00:14:27.880 away with,
00:14:28.580 and I
00:14:29.560 think at
00:14:29.860 this point
00:14:30.240 he's just
00:14:30.600 having fun
00:14:31.200 with it
00:14:31.560 because he
00:14:31.920 doesn't have
00:14:32.320 to get
00:14:32.580 elected
00:14:32.960 again.
00:14:34.400 So Trump
00:14:35.300 says stuff
00:14:36.040 that no
00:14:39.480 president should
00:14:40.380 ever say.
00:14:42.740 So here's
00:14:43.620 his latest
00:14:44.220 one.
00:14:46.100 He was
00:14:46.740 talking to
00:14:47.260 some smallish
00:14:48.280 group
00:14:48.760 indoors.
00:14:50.900 I don't
00:14:51.240 know who
00:14:51.520 it was.
00:14:52.540 And he
00:14:52.920 was talking
00:14:53.300 about how
00:14:53.740 in his
00:14:54.080 first term
00:14:54.800 he arranged
00:14:56.960 that the
00:14:57.460 United States
00:14:58.080 would get
00:14:58.360 the World
00:14:58.740 Cup and
00:15:00.060 also the
00:15:00.660 Olympics.
00:15:02.060 And then
00:15:02.740 he realized
00:15:03.360 that he
00:15:03.740 wouldn't be
00:15:04.180 president when
00:15:05.260 that stuff
00:15:05.780 happened.
00:15:06.740 And he
00:15:07.340 thought,
00:15:07.720 oh man,
00:15:08.380 I'm not
00:15:09.020 going to
00:15:09.260 get the
00:15:09.760 credit for
00:15:11.360 getting the
00:15:11.820 World Cup
00:15:12.400 and the
00:15:12.700 Olympics.
00:15:15.480 And then
00:15:16.200 he said,
00:15:17.320 and this
00:15:17.680 is a direct
00:15:18.300 quote,
00:15:19.400 and then
00:15:19.840 they rigged
00:15:20.440 the election.
00:15:21.680 And then
00:15:21.960 I said,
00:15:22.640 you know
00:15:23.040 what I'll
00:15:23.340 do?
00:15:23.760 I'll run
00:15:24.280 again and
00:15:25.200 I'll shove
00:15:25.680 it up their
00:15:26.140 ass.
00:15:26.900 And that's
00:15:27.300 what I
00:15:27.680 did.
00:15:32.180 I'll shove
00:15:33.040 it up
00:15:33.340 their
00:15:33.540 ass.
00:15:36.320 Has
00:15:36.880 any
00:15:37.320 president
00:15:37.780 ever
00:15:38.360 said in
00:15:39.680 a public
00:15:40.240 situation,
00:15:43.140 I'll shove
00:15:43.720 it up
00:15:43.980 somebody's
00:15:44.400 ass?
00:15:47.400 That's
00:15:47.960 why we
00:15:48.340 love them.
00:15:50.180 All
00:15:50.460 right.
00:15:50.680 well,
00:15:53.400 there's
00:15:53.740 more
00:15:54.040 drip,
00:15:54.620 drip,
00:15:54.800 drip,
00:15:54.940 drip
00:15:55.140 from
00:15:55.480 this
00:15:55.860 new
00:15:56.200 book
00:15:56.520 by
00:15:57.000 Jake
00:15:57.540 Tapper
00:15:57.980 and
00:15:58.440 Alex
00:15:59.380 Thompson.
00:16:00.780 Is that
00:16:01.580 coming out
00:16:02.160 today?
00:16:03.060 Is the
00:16:03.440 book out
00:16:03.820 today?
00:16:04.380 It's real
00:16:05.040 soon.
00:16:06.120 But they're
00:16:06.940 talking about
00:16:07.400 how Biden
00:16:07.940 was relying
00:16:09.240 on teleprompters
00:16:10.400 and no
00:16:10.920 cards,
00:16:12.240 even in
00:16:13.580 cabinet
00:16:13.980 meetings.
00:16:14.500 so we've
00:16:17.020 seen Trump's
00:16:17.900 cabinet
00:16:18.260 meetings
00:16:18.800 where
00:16:19.820 everything's
00:16:22.080 open and
00:16:22.880 he's just
00:16:23.400 responding to
00:16:24.420 anything,
00:16:25.660 anytime.
00:16:26.060 but apparently
00:16:27.820 the staff
00:16:31.020 for Biden
00:16:31.900 were so
00:16:32.440 concerned
00:16:32.980 about his
00:16:33.660 answers
00:16:34.140 that he
00:16:35.880 had all
00:16:36.220 the questions
00:16:36.960 scripted
00:16:37.880 and then the
00:16:39.320 answers were
00:16:40.020 on little
00:16:40.420 note cards
00:16:41.120 or teleprompters
00:16:42.540 depending on
00:16:43.440 what domain
00:16:45.120 he was
00:16:45.480 in.
00:16:48.740 And then
00:16:49.140 somebody
00:16:50.120 can you
00:16:52.980 imagine
00:16:53.320 having a
00:16:53.920 president
00:16:54.320 who is
00:16:55.560 so mentally
00:16:56.600 incompetent
00:16:57.580 that you
00:16:58.420 have to
00:16:58.740 give him
00:16:59.060 the question
00:16:59.680 and the
00:17:00.400 answer.
00:17:02.140 It's not
00:17:02.860 just the
00:17:03.300 question,
00:17:03.820 it's the
00:17:04.120 question and
00:17:04.760 the answer
00:17:05.240 on a little
00:17:05.680 note card
00:17:06.260 so he
00:17:07.140 can read
00:17:07.480 it.
00:17:09.420 And then
00:17:10.240 we also
00:17:11.140 heard that
00:17:11.840 they would
00:17:14.000 use more
00:17:14.580 than one
00:17:15.020 camera when
00:17:16.160 he was
00:17:16.560 asked to
00:17:17.200 do any
00:17:17.940 kind of
00:17:18.480 little video
00:17:19.360 recording for
00:17:20.140 anybody.
00:17:21.220 So when a
00:17:21.820 group asked
00:17:22.340 Biden to
00:17:22.860 record a
00:17:23.360 five-minute
00:17:23.880 address or
00:17:25.540 a keynote,
00:17:27.100 they would
00:17:28.320 tell him,
00:17:28.900 well, can
00:17:29.900 we give
00:17:30.240 you two
00:17:30.720 minutes?
00:17:31.620 Because five
00:17:32.220 minutes is
00:17:32.700 sort of a
00:17:33.140 long time.
00:17:34.200 And then
00:17:34.720 they would
00:17:35.100 use two
00:17:35.720 cameras so
00:17:37.180 that when
00:17:37.720 he glitched,
00:17:39.400 which he
00:17:39.820 did all the
00:17:40.320 time, they
00:17:41.340 would just
00:17:41.640 cut to the
00:17:42.260 other camera
00:17:42.880 and then
00:17:44.000 they could
00:17:44.420 easily edit
00:17:45.140 out the
00:17:45.600 glitch, you
00:17:46.300 know, just
00:17:46.600 have him do
00:17:47.060 it again.
00:17:50.080 So that's
00:17:50.760 called a
00:17:51.140 jump cut.
00:17:51.820 Now, here's
00:17:54.580 the funny
00:17:54.980 part about
00:17:55.520 this story.
00:17:57.220 The funniest
00:17:58.100 part about
00:17:58.600 this story is
00:17:59.420 that if
00:18:00.040 they had
00:18:00.380 removed
00:18:00.920 Biden and
00:18:02.460 replaced him
00:18:03.200 with Kamala
00:18:03.840 Harris,
00:18:05.500 wouldn't they
00:18:06.180 still need to
00:18:06.980 get the
00:18:07.300 questions in
00:18:08.100 advance?
00:18:09.660 And wouldn't
00:18:10.080 they still
00:18:10.640 need to give
00:18:11.240 her a
00:18:11.580 note card or
00:18:12.440 she might
00:18:13.220 have been
00:18:13.460 able to
00:18:13.820 memorize it?
00:18:15.060 Wouldn't
00:18:15.320 they still
00:18:15.760 be able to
00:18:16.240 give her
00:18:16.540 the answers?
00:18:17.180 and wouldn't
00:18:18.940 they use a
00:18:19.580 jump cut
00:18:20.260 just to get
00:18:22.060 rid of her
00:18:22.500 word salad?
00:18:25.000 If you
00:18:26.580 think about
00:18:27.780 how history
00:18:29.280 will treat
00:18:29.920 this, it
00:18:32.340 would be
00:18:32.640 one thing
00:18:33.240 if you
00:18:34.280 had a
00:18:34.840 very solid
00:18:35.980 vice
00:18:36.400 president,
00:18:37.420 but then
00:18:38.400 something
00:18:38.760 happened with
00:18:39.380 your president
00:18:39.940 and you
00:18:41.280 did the
00:18:41.640 best you
00:18:42.060 could to
00:18:42.640 keep it
00:18:43.640 away from
00:18:44.020 the public.
00:18:45.280 But what
00:18:45.820 are the
00:18:46.120 odds?
00:18:47.180 that in
00:18:48.440 the
00:18:48.600 Democratic
00:18:49.040 Party,
00:18:50.860 the entire
00:18:52.180 Democratic
00:18:52.880 Party,
00:18:53.700 like,
00:18:54.020 is it like
00:18:54.940 70 million
00:18:55.820 people,
00:18:56.740 that the
00:18:57.780 best two
00:18:58.460 candidates
00:18:59.080 they could
00:18:59.480 come up
00:18:59.920 with
00:19:00.300 couldn't
00:19:01.720 even talk.
00:19:04.620 You
00:19:05.340 would be
00:19:06.160 afraid to
00:19:06.780 put them
00:19:07.180 in front
00:19:07.560 of any
00:19:08.000 kind of
00:19:08.380 group
00:19:08.700 because
00:19:09.840 Kamala
00:19:10.380 would just
00:19:10.800 be cackling
00:19:11.660 and gaffing
00:19:13.280 and looking
00:19:14.360 drunk,
00:19:15.120 whether she
00:19:15.860 was or
00:19:16.240 not.
00:19:16.440 She
00:19:16.640 always
00:19:16.900 looked
00:19:17.140 drunk.
00:19:18.400 And
00:19:18.660 Biden
00:19:19.320 would
00:19:19.580 just
00:19:19.820 be
00:19:20.160 blah,
00:19:21.020 blah,
00:19:21.420 blah.
00:19:22.420 Can
00:19:22.640 you
00:19:22.800 imagine
00:19:23.280 that the
00:19:24.280 top two
00:19:25.040 people
00:19:25.580 in the
00:19:26.760 whole
00:19:26.980 country,
00:19:29.180 they didn't
00:19:29.900 trust either
00:19:30.460 one of them
00:19:30.980 to talk to
00:19:31.620 a group
00:19:31.980 of ten
00:19:32.340 people?
00:19:35.060 And
00:19:35.580 somehow,
00:19:36.700 somehow we
00:19:37.620 got used
00:19:38.140 to that.
00:19:39.960 Just think
00:19:40.680 about the
00:19:41.080 fact that
00:19:41.580 we got
00:19:42.260 used to
00:19:42.700 it.
00:19:42.920 because it's
00:19:44.300 not like
00:19:44.700 we didn't
00:19:45.100 know that
00:19:45.640 Biden
00:19:46.140 couldn't
00:19:47.200 talk to
00:19:47.620 a group.
00:19:48.320 That was
00:19:48.680 obvious.
00:19:49.620 And it
00:19:49.820 wasn't like
00:19:50.320 we didn't
00:19:50.700 know that
00:19:51.120 Kamala
00:19:51.460 Harris would
00:19:52.020 be a
00:19:52.580 cackling
00:19:53.360 word salad
00:19:54.400 mess.
00:19:54.900 But we
00:19:56.320 just sort
00:19:56.780 of got
00:19:57.060 used to
00:19:57.640 it.
00:19:58.520 Like that
00:19:59.220 was semi
00:19:59.740 normal.
00:20:01.740 You
00:20:02.180 couldn't
00:20:02.600 find two
00:20:04.800 people who
00:20:05.720 were unable
00:20:06.400 to talk to
00:20:07.140 a group
00:20:07.560 of, you
00:20:08.540 know, any
00:20:08.960 group, unless
00:20:11.000 you worked
00:20:11.440 at it pretty
00:20:11.940 hard.
00:20:12.420 But they
00:20:12.720 did.
00:20:13.220 They found
00:20:13.660 the only two
00:20:14.260 people who
00:20:14.740 couldn't talk
00:20:15.240 to a group.
00:20:18.160 Well, one
00:20:18.860 of the big
00:20:19.220 questions about
00:20:20.200 Biden's
00:20:21.740 cancer
00:20:22.560 diagnosis is
00:20:24.480 people, all
00:20:26.000 the smart
00:20:26.520 doctors immediately
00:20:27.680 went on TV
00:20:28.780 and they
00:20:29.780 said, there
00:20:30.360 is no way
00:20:31.160 that the
00:20:32.520 White House
00:20:32.920 doctor or
00:20:34.520 the doctors
00:20:35.200 didn't know
00:20:35.820 about this.
00:20:36.740 There's no way
00:20:37.300 they didn't
00:20:37.660 know about
00:20:38.060 this for a
00:20:38.880 long time.
00:20:39.940 He may
00:20:40.320 have had
00:20:40.620 this for
00:20:41.020 seven to
00:20:41.540 ten years.
00:20:42.980 And of
00:20:43.340 course, I
00:20:43.840 unfortunately
00:20:44.960 know too
00:20:45.540 much about
00:20:46.060 this topic.
00:20:46.900 And I
00:20:47.140 thought to
00:20:47.460 myself, I
00:20:49.140 don't think
00:20:49.560 those doctors
00:20:50.300 are right.
00:20:51.940 I feel
00:20:52.540 like those
00:20:52.980 doctors,
00:20:53.500 doctors, maybe
00:20:55.980 are uninformed.
00:20:58.620 And then I
00:20:59.220 saw Dr.
00:21:01.040 Nicole
00:21:01.380 Safarico on
00:21:02.600 Fox News, and
00:21:04.800 she said that
00:21:05.780 beyond a
00:21:07.220 certain age,
00:21:07.980 which I
00:21:08.480 believe now
00:21:09.200 is 75, they
00:21:11.400 don't check
00:21:11.940 PSA.
00:21:13.700 And that's
00:21:14.480 how you
00:21:14.900 catch it
00:21:15.400 early.
00:21:16.440 And the
00:21:16.800 reason they
00:21:17.160 don't check
00:21:17.660 it is if
00:21:18.360 you're 75,
00:21:19.760 and that's
00:21:20.420 the first
00:21:21.020 time you
00:21:21.480 get some
00:21:22.920 PSA
00:21:24.700 elevation.
00:21:25.940 First of
00:21:26.420 all, there
00:21:26.700 could be
00:21:27.400 several
00:21:27.780 different
00:21:28.120 reasons for
00:21:28.760 it that
00:21:29.040 are not
00:21:29.380 cancer.
00:21:31.180 But you
00:21:32.000 don't want
00:21:32.360 to ruin
00:21:33.540 their life
00:21:34.120 by a
00:21:34.540 biopsy.
00:21:37.260 It's just
00:21:37.940 better to
00:21:38.360 let it
00:21:38.680 grow slowly,
00:21:43.440 basically,
00:21:44.080 and they'll
00:21:45.320 probably die
00:21:45.820 of something
00:21:46.240 else.
00:21:47.800 So in
00:21:48.900 Biden's
00:21:49.520 case, it
00:21:50.800 was not
00:21:51.840 ordinary for
00:21:53.140 them to be
00:21:53.740 testing every
00:21:54.480 month or
00:21:55.100 every year
00:21:55.640 or anything.
00:21:56.560 So there's a
00:21:57.200 very good
00:21:57.620 chance that
00:21:58.780 they were not
00:21:59.360 aware of it
00:21:59.900 until he had
00:22:00.440 symptoms.
00:22:01.860 The symptoms
00:22:02.480 were some
00:22:03.080 kind of
00:22:03.420 urinary
00:22:03.840 symptoms, I
00:22:04.840 guess.
00:22:06.680 So by the
00:22:07.500 time he had
00:22:07.980 urinary
00:22:08.420 symptoms, he
00:22:11.040 may have had
00:22:11.560 it for a
00:22:11.940 while.
00:22:12.220 And that
00:22:15.020 means it
00:22:15.620 might have
00:22:15.940 metastasized.
00:22:17.660 So all
00:22:19.940 that
00:22:20.280 doctoring that
00:22:21.540 you saw,
00:22:22.740 where people
00:22:23.800 were like,
00:22:24.320 well, they
00:22:25.000 check him
00:22:26.220 all the
00:22:26.640 time, and
00:22:27.360 of course
00:22:28.600 they would
00:22:28.960 have checked.
00:22:29.980 None of
00:22:30.380 that was
00:22:30.720 true.
00:22:32.480 It was
00:22:33.200 more typical
00:22:33.860 that they
00:22:34.320 wouldn't
00:22:34.660 check because
00:22:36.180 of his
00:22:36.640 age.
00:22:38.060 And that's
00:22:39.140 what I
00:22:39.460 thought when
00:22:41.140 I was
00:22:41.420 watching the
00:22:42.200 original
00:22:42.820 doctors come
00:22:43.840 on and
00:22:44.240 say, oh
00:22:45.220 yeah, they
00:22:45.700 would have
00:22:45.940 known for
00:22:46.360 years.
00:22:46.980 He would
00:22:47.480 have had
00:22:47.740 it for
00:22:47.960 years.
00:22:48.400 And I
00:22:48.640 thought, you
00:22:49.880 might have
00:22:50.240 had it for
00:22:50.780 a long
00:22:51.140 time, but
00:22:53.000 they wouldn't
00:22:53.420 necessarily
00:22:54.100 know about
00:22:54.820 it.
00:22:55.780 And I
00:22:56.900 guess that's
00:22:57.400 true.
00:22:58.480 So we
00:22:59.160 don't know
00:22:59.920 if we've
00:23:00.260 been told
00:23:00.620 the whole
00:23:01.000 truth, but
00:23:02.380 the fact
00:23:03.500 that so
00:23:04.300 many doctors
00:23:05.080 went on
00:23:05.560 TV and
00:23:06.900 had the
00:23:07.320 wrong
00:23:07.660 information
00:23:08.360 about the
00:23:09.440 most common
00:23:10.140 cancer is
00:23:12.120 kind of
00:23:12.900 disturbing,
00:23:14.780 a little
00:23:15.160 bit
00:23:15.360 disturbing.
00:23:17.700 But anyway.
00:23:19.440 When I
00:23:20.160 found out my
00:23:20.780 friend got a
00:23:21.400 great deal on
00:23:22.220 a wool coat
00:23:22.760 from Winners,
00:23:23.560 I started
00:23:24.380 wondering, is
00:23:25.560 every fabulous
00:23:26.620 item I see
00:23:27.320 from Winners?
00:23:28.200 Like that
00:23:28.900 woman over
00:23:29.400 there with
00:23:29.860 the designer
00:23:30.300 jeans.
00:23:31.080 Are those
00:23:31.720 from Winners?
00:23:32.660 Ooh, or
00:23:33.420 those beautiful
00:23:33.940 gold earrings?
00:23:35.080 Did she pay
00:23:35.520 full price?
00:23:36.460 Or that
00:23:36.720 leather tote?
00:23:37.460 Or that
00:23:37.720 cashmere sweater?
00:23:38.640 Or those
00:23:39.000 knee-high boots?
00:23:39.840 That dress?
00:23:40.920 That jacket?
00:23:41.580 Those shoes?
00:23:42.620 Is anyone
00:23:43.420 paying full
00:23:44.040 price for
00:23:44.600 anything?
00:23:45.580 Stop
00:23:46.040 wondering.
00:23:46.840 Start winning.
00:23:47.780 Winners find
00:23:48.580 fabulous for
00:23:49.380 less.
00:23:50.560 And then
00:23:51.140 Hakeem
00:23:51.880 Jeffries
00:23:52.380 was asked
00:23:54.360 about, you
00:23:55.860 know, whether
00:23:56.260 Biden was
00:23:57.100 concealing his
00:23:58.040 health problems.
00:23:59.680 And his
00:24:00.440 response was,
00:24:02.180 Republicans are
00:24:03.180 literally trying
00:24:04.020 to take health
00:24:04.740 care away from
00:24:05.520 millions of
00:24:06.120 Americans.
00:24:06.540 and they
00:24:07.520 want to
00:24:07.860 fend the
00:24:08.280 flames of
00:24:08.880 conspiracy
00:24:09.560 theories at
00:24:10.400 this moment?
00:24:11.460 No thanks.
00:24:15.280 I feel as
00:24:16.500 though the
00:24:18.140 Democrats are
00:24:19.140 so feeble at
00:24:20.460 this point that
00:24:21.520 they have a
00:24:22.200 little box with
00:24:24.680 little pieces of
00:24:26.120 paper in it
00:24:27.000 that have just
00:24:28.320 little talking
00:24:29.040 points.
00:24:30.880 And so they'll
00:24:31.680 just pick out
00:24:32.280 their talking
00:24:32.840 points.
00:24:34.140 It's like,
00:24:34.540 Hakeem
00:24:35.060 Jeffries,
00:24:35.480 what do you
00:24:36.660 think was
00:24:37.180 Biden hiding
00:24:37.860 his situation?
00:24:39.400 And then he'd
00:24:39.840 reach into the
00:24:40.680 box and he'd
00:24:41.280 take out a
00:24:41.700 piece of
00:24:42.040 paper and
00:24:42.560 he'd say,
00:24:43.680 the Republicans
00:24:46.020 are trying to
00:24:46.680 take away your
00:24:47.300 health care.
00:24:48.740 And then he'd
00:24:49.540 pick another
00:24:49.980 one and say,
00:24:51.860 it's a
00:24:53.160 conspiracy theory.
00:24:56.100 It honestly
00:24:57.820 just feels like
00:24:58.780 he's randomly
00:24:59.900 saying things.
00:25:01.580 You know,
00:25:01.820 I guess this
00:25:02.540 came pretty
00:25:03.060 close to being
00:25:03.800 on target,
00:25:05.920 but it
00:25:07.160 doesn't even
00:25:07.760 feel like he's
00:25:08.560 thinking.
00:25:09.680 It's just like
00:25:10.300 he's randomly
00:25:11.020 picking statements
00:25:12.880 out of a box
00:25:13.820 or something.
00:25:15.920 Well,
00:25:16.540 in other news,
00:25:17.420 Alanis
00:25:17.920 Morissette,
00:25:19.580 a famous
00:25:20.340 singer.
00:25:22.340 According to
00:25:23.200 Laura Loomer
00:25:24.100 and her
00:25:25.000 investigation,
00:25:25.980 she had a
00:25:26.480 scoop on
00:25:27.080 this.
00:25:27.360 apparently she
00:25:30.560 was paid
00:25:31.000 $95,000
00:25:32.160 by the
00:25:33.680 Harris
00:25:34.180 campaign.
00:25:37.100 But the
00:25:37.980 weird thing
00:25:38.460 is that it
00:25:39.800 was listed
00:25:40.360 as event
00:25:41.400 services and
00:25:42.400 catering in
00:25:43.620 the FEC
00:25:44.240 records.
00:25:46.040 So she
00:25:47.820 endorsed
00:25:48.420 Harris
00:25:49.440 and then
00:25:52.260 some
00:25:53.840 entity
00:25:54.580 that was
00:25:55.820 Alanis
00:25:56.300 Morissette's
00:25:56.960 company
00:25:57.380 was paid
00:25:59.020 $95,000
00:26:00.040 for event
00:26:01.060 services and
00:26:02.060 catering.
00:26:04.040 Does that
00:26:04.820 sound legitimate
00:26:05.480 to you?
00:26:07.140 The more
00:26:08.060 we hear about
00:26:08.840 the Harris
00:26:09.720 campaign,
00:26:10.340 the funnier
00:26:10.860 it is.
00:26:12.080 It makes you
00:26:12.860 wonder if all
00:26:13.420 the voters
00:26:13.940 were also
00:26:14.480 bribed.
00:26:16.360 It's like
00:26:16.680 if Beyonce
00:26:18.280 and Oprah
00:26:19.040 and Alanis
00:26:20.520 Morissette
00:26:21.240 are all
00:26:21.700 getting paid
00:26:22.280 for their
00:26:22.860 endorsements.
00:26:24.700 What about
00:26:25.380 the regular
00:26:25.880 voters?
00:26:27.460 I mean,
00:26:27.820 obviously you
00:26:28.500 wouldn't pay
00:26:28.860 them as much.
00:26:29.680 It'd be too
00:26:30.100 expensive,
00:26:30.760 but I'd
00:26:31.780 want at
00:26:32.200 least
00:26:32.600 $0.45.
00:26:36.220 You know,
00:26:36.880 that'd be my
00:26:37.620 price.
00:26:38.140 It's like,
00:26:38.560 I'll vote for
00:26:39.360 you because
00:26:40.140 I'm going to
00:26:40.480 be in that
00:26:41.000 voting booth
00:26:41.580 anyway.
00:26:42.080 I like to
00:26:42.560 vote,
00:26:43.120 but I'm
00:26:44.380 not going to
00:26:44.800 do it for
00:26:45.220 free.
00:26:46.640 Can we
00:26:47.160 work out a
00:26:47.740 deal?
00:26:48.280 And then
00:26:48.680 the Harris
00:26:49.120 campaign
00:26:49.600 would be
00:26:49.980 like,
00:26:50.740 all right,
00:26:51.940 would you
00:26:52.640 do it
00:26:52.940 for $0.25?
00:26:54.760 And I'd
00:26:55.400 say,
00:26:55.620 $0.25?
00:26:57.280 You think
00:26:58.160 I'm going
00:26:58.520 to give
00:26:58.840 up my
00:26:59.220 vote for
00:27:00.860 $0.25?
00:27:03.540 No,
00:27:04.340 and I'm
00:27:04.740 insulted.
00:27:06.100 $0.45.
00:27:07.960 That's my
00:27:08.680 final offer.
00:27:10.120 All right.
00:27:12.060 So she
00:27:12.900 could have
00:27:13.200 won.
00:27:14.640 It was
00:27:14.980 so close.
00:27:15.700 Well,
00:27:18.120 you remember
00:27:18.540 the Democrat
00:27:21.520 elected
00:27:23.420 officials who
00:27:24.320 tried to
00:27:25.640 get into
00:27:26.220 an ICE
00:27:26.860 facility in
00:27:27.840 Newark,
00:27:29.040 and I
00:27:30.100 guess there
00:27:30.440 was some
00:27:30.820 pushing and
00:27:32.080 physicality that
00:27:33.280 got involved
00:27:34.020 there.
00:27:35.260 And I
00:27:36.860 guess Alina
00:27:37.480 Haba,
00:27:38.200 the U.S.
00:27:38.980 attorney,
00:27:39.580 is officially
00:27:40.440 charging one
00:27:42.080 of them,
00:27:42.560 Representative
00:27:43.180 LaMonica
00:27:44.020 McIver,
00:27:45.360 for assaulting
00:27:46.240 a law
00:27:46.640 enforcement
00:27:47.660 officer at
00:27:49.080 the ICE
00:27:49.600 facility as
00:27:50.740 they were
00:27:51.120 trying to
00:27:52.200 trespass and
00:27:53.060 get in.
00:27:55.060 The funniest
00:27:55.960 thing about
00:27:56.500 that story,
00:27:57.620 which I think
00:27:58.780 is true,
00:27:59.760 is if they
00:28:00.700 had not been
00:28:01.320 there to
00:28:02.260 protest,
00:28:03.520 all they had
00:28:04.240 to do was
00:28:04.740 ask if they
00:28:05.540 could get
00:28:06.520 in for a
00:28:07.300 tour,
00:28:08.520 and they
00:28:09.160 could have
00:28:09.420 just scheduled
00:28:10.000 it.
00:28:11.760 The ICE
00:28:12.540 facility would
00:28:13.360 have said,
00:28:13.860 sure, what
00:28:14.820 time do you
00:28:15.160 want to
00:28:15.380 come in?
00:28:16.640 And then
00:28:17.040 they would
00:28:17.360 just pick
00:28:17.800 the time.
00:28:19.340 Because it
00:28:19.960 wasn't like
00:28:20.460 it's a
00:28:20.820 secret facility
00:28:21.780 or anything.
00:28:22.700 It was just
00:28:23.500 that they
00:28:24.160 had not
00:28:24.540 made a
00:28:24.920 reservation.
00:28:26.820 So it
00:28:28.340 became criminal
00:28:29.240 because they
00:28:29.880 were pushing
00:28:30.400 the law
00:28:31.580 enforcement
00:28:32.000 around.
00:28:32.980 But here's
00:28:33.500 the part I
00:28:33.880 don't understand.
00:28:34.860 This is from
00:28:35.620 Alina Haba,
00:28:36.920 the U.S.
00:28:37.460 attorney.
00:28:39.420 She said,
00:28:40.260 I have
00:28:40.540 persistently
00:28:41.280 made efforts
00:28:41.960 to address
00:28:42.580 these issues
00:28:43.340 without bringing
00:28:44.840 criminal charges.
00:28:46.460 And I've
00:28:46.780 given
00:28:47.140 Representative
00:28:48.240 McIver
00:28:50.380 every opportunity
00:28:51.760 to come to
00:28:52.440 a resolution.
00:28:53.780 But she
00:28:54.120 has unfortunately
00:28:54.920 declined.
00:28:55.920 And I
00:28:56.140 thought to
00:28:56.960 myself,
00:28:57.760 what exactly
00:28:58.800 would be the
00:28:59.500 other things
00:29:00.480 that would
00:29:02.000 make this
00:29:02.460 not a
00:29:02.900 jailable
00:29:03.340 offense
00:29:03.880 without
00:29:05.460 bringing
00:29:05.980 criminal
00:29:06.460 charges?
00:29:07.760 What
00:29:08.320 exactly was
00:29:09.080 she going
00:29:09.400 to do?
00:29:10.240 And by
00:29:10.620 the way,
00:29:10.920 it wasn't
00:29:11.360 like a
00:29:12.600 serious
00:29:13.040 crime.
00:29:13.940 There may
00:29:14.560 have been
00:29:14.780 a little
00:29:15.100 elbowing
00:29:15.960 and a
00:29:17.220 little bit
00:29:17.540 of pushing,
00:29:18.300 but nothing
00:29:19.060 that was
00:29:19.380 going to
00:29:19.620 hurt an
00:29:20.020 ICE officer
00:29:20.780 really,
00:29:21.700 or a
00:29:22.100 police
00:29:22.720 officer.
00:29:24.920 What
00:29:25.520 exactly did
00:29:26.380 they offer
00:29:26.940 her if she
00:29:28.340 apologized?
00:29:30.380 So there's
00:29:31.260 something weird
00:29:31.820 about that
00:29:32.280 story.
00:29:34.440 Anyway,
00:29:35.440 according to
00:29:36.820 a Harvard
00:29:37.580 Harris poll,
00:29:39.080 for the
00:29:39.520 first time
00:29:40.320 since July
00:29:41.100 2021,
00:29:42.880 a majority
00:29:43.480 of Americans
00:29:44.200 rate the
00:29:44.700 economy as
00:29:45.460 strong.
00:29:48.600 How many
00:29:49.700 of you
00:29:50.020 rate the
00:29:50.540 economy as
00:29:51.340 strong,
00:29:52.280 the American
00:29:52.860 economy?
00:29:55.420 Why would
00:29:56.560 you rate it
00:29:57.080 as strong?
00:29:58.600 We have
00:29:59.160 this crushing
00:29:59.960 debt and
00:30:01.720 no real
00:30:02.280 way to pay
00:30:02.820 it back.
00:30:03.340 we don't
00:30:05.580 even have
00:30:06.100 an economy.
00:30:07.940 We barely
00:30:09.020 have a
00:30:09.600 survivable
00:30:10.600 temporary
00:30:11.840 situation.
00:30:13.860 We don't
00:30:14.160 have an
00:30:14.860 economy.
00:30:16.300 An economy
00:30:17.200 would suggest
00:30:18.060 that it could
00:30:18.600 keep on
00:30:19.080 running the
00:30:19.620 way it's
00:30:19.940 going.
00:30:20.800 Our
00:30:21.000 scan,
00:30:22.360 we might
00:30:23.240 have a few
00:30:23.820 years and
00:30:24.360 then the
00:30:25.020 runway is
00:30:25.840 done and
00:30:26.360 then we
00:30:26.920 all have to
00:30:28.220 become cavemen
00:30:29.080 or something.
00:30:30.320 But with
00:30:31.100 crushing
00:30:31.640 debt,
00:30:33.500 I think
00:30:34.120 people just
00:30:34.680 don't understand
00:30:35.460 enough about
00:30:36.100 the economy.
00:30:37.680 So whenever
00:30:38.580 you poll
00:30:39.140 people and
00:30:39.740 ask them if
00:30:40.300 the economy
00:30:40.860 is strong,
00:30:42.260 it's sort
00:30:42.680 of like
00:30:42.960 polling people
00:30:43.660 and asking
00:30:44.220 them,
00:30:45.160 hey, is
00:30:45.620 this the
00:30:45.940 right way
00:30:46.340 to design
00:30:47.200 this microchip?
00:30:48.840 And then the
00:30:49.740 citizens are
00:30:50.440 like, well,
00:30:51.860 I don't know
00:30:52.640 too much about
00:30:53.420 designing microchips,
00:30:54.940 but it does
00:30:56.320 look right to
00:30:56.980 me.
00:30:57.280 Now, what
00:30:59.520 would be the
00:30:59.940 point of
00:31:00.300 asking the
00:31:00.880 public something
00:31:02.320 they couldn't
00:31:02.880 possibly understand?
00:31:05.600 Well, I guess
00:31:06.520 it would get
00:31:06.820 their attitude.
00:31:08.480 Maybe they'd
00:31:09.300 buy more
00:31:09.760 stuff if they
00:31:10.460 think it's
00:31:10.880 strong.
00:31:11.940 But speaking
00:31:12.520 of the
00:31:13.020 budget
00:31:13.540 debacle,
00:31:15.280 which is
00:31:15.700 what I
00:31:16.040 call it,
00:31:18.920 I guess
00:31:20.020 the Freedom
00:31:20.640 Caucus
00:31:21.120 chair says
00:31:23.160 the votes
00:31:23.900 are not
00:31:24.280 there.
00:31:25.660 And
00:31:26.000 so
00:31:27.760 if the
00:31:29.600 votes are
00:31:30.000 not there,
00:31:30.740 it means
00:31:31.140 that they'll
00:31:31.620 have to
00:31:32.000 negotiate,
00:31:32.980 and they'll
00:31:33.260 be negotiating
00:31:34.080 until the
00:31:34.540 end of
00:31:34.860 June.
00:31:35.660 So they're
00:31:36.480 hoping to
00:31:36.960 get something
00:31:37.420 signed before
00:31:38.580 Memorial Day.
00:31:40.360 But at
00:31:41.240 least one
00:31:42.000 part of the
00:31:42.840 Republican
00:31:43.780 world says,
00:31:46.080 nope,
00:31:47.320 we don't
00:31:48.100 have the
00:31:48.440 votes.
00:31:49.540 So I guess
00:31:50.100 they would be
00:31:51.080 the anti-debt
00:31:52.500 people,
00:31:53.800 the Freedom
00:31:54.280 Caucus.
00:31:54.840 and then
00:31:57.020 allegedly
00:31:57.600 Trump is
00:31:58.400 going to
00:31:59.140 personally
00:32:00.880 lobby the
00:32:01.640 House
00:32:01.880 Republicans
00:32:02.420 to get
00:32:04.320 this signed
00:32:04.860 right away
00:32:05.440 because it
00:32:07.220 would be a
00:32:07.680 legacy-building
00:32:08.500 accomplishment
00:32:09.160 for his
00:32:09.760 second term.
00:32:11.600 Do you
00:32:12.260 think it
00:32:12.620 should be
00:32:12.980 signed
00:32:13.400 if they
00:32:14.920 haven't
00:32:15.880 meaningfully
00:32:16.760 reduced the
00:32:17.620 debt?
00:32:17.940 I just
00:32:21.460 don't think
00:32:21.880 they should
00:32:22.260 sign it.
00:32:23.900 It feels
00:32:24.660 like there
00:32:25.220 has to be
00:32:25.800 some kind
00:32:26.860 of guard
00:32:28.560 rail or
00:32:29.540 penalty or
00:32:31.460 benefit or
00:32:32.380 something to
00:32:33.700 get the
00:32:34.540 Congress to
00:32:35.240 do the
00:32:35.580 thing that
00:32:35.960 they should
00:32:36.380 do, which
00:32:37.820 is reduce
00:32:39.260 the spending,
00:32:40.240 as hard as
00:32:40.880 that is.
00:32:41.900 But unfortunately
00:32:42.800 we don't have a
00:32:43.660 system in which
00:32:44.460 the Congress
00:32:45.040 can do
00:32:45.740 that because
00:32:47.260 if they
00:32:47.740 even reduce
00:32:48.420 the spending
00:32:49.020 for something
00:32:50.460 that only 10%
00:32:51.620 of the public
00:32:52.180 cared about,
00:32:53.400 that would be
00:32:54.040 enough to
00:32:54.460 lose the
00:32:54.880 next election.
00:32:57.260 So it
00:33:00.940 looks like
00:33:01.620 there's
00:33:03.560 nothing that
00:33:04.080 will ever
00:33:04.560 be done
00:33:05.180 and we
00:33:06.680 will just
00:33:07.240 cruise into
00:33:08.580 this total
00:33:09.420 deficit
00:33:10.400 death spiral.
00:33:12.560 so I
00:33:15.320 don't know,
00:33:15.740 something's
00:33:16.140 got to
00:33:16.400 give.
00:33:18.260 We'll
00:33:18.840 see.

00:33:32.220 Scotiabank,
00:33:33.000 you're richer
00:33:33.440 than you think.
00:33:36.120 According to
00:33:37.000 Breitbart News,
00:33:38.200 there's a poll
00:33:38.920 that says
00:33:39.500 majority of
00:33:41.200 American
00:33:42.800 voters say
00:33:43.880 that lowering
00:33:44.420 the cost of
00:33:45.160 living should
00:33:45.820 be Trump's
00:33:46.500 top priority.
00:33:47.980 Now what
00:33:48.280 they're thinking
00:33:48.820 is they
00:33:49.420 want the
00:33:50.000 cost of
00:33:50.420 eggs and
00:33:50.980 gas and
00:33:51.620 rent and
00:33:52.240 stuff to
00:33:52.640 go down,
00:33:53.280 which should
00:33:54.060 be hard
00:33:54.660 for a
00:33:55.060 president to
00:33:55.680 do,
00:33:56.920 you know,
00:33:57.280 except for
00:33:58.200 maybe doing
00:34:00.420 things that
00:34:00.860 lower inflation
00:34:01.680 a little bit.
00:34:03.060 But I
00:34:04.040 still think
00:34:04.660 we're going
00:34:05.060 to have to
00:34:05.340 do something
00:34:05.900 that's more
00:34:06.600 structurally
00:34:07.800 radical.
00:34:09.200 it seems
00:34:11.380 to me
00:34:11.800 that if
00:34:12.440 our
00:34:12.860 demographics
00:34:14.600 are collapsing
00:34:15.520 and you
00:34:17.960 got a
00:34:18.220 bunch of
00:34:18.720 old people
00:34:19.300 who are
00:34:19.620 going to
00:34:19.840 be in
00:34:20.060 houses that
00:34:20.880 are too
00:34:21.480 big for
00:34:21.880 them,
00:34:22.260 and there
00:34:22.620 might be
00:34:22.880 one person
00:34:23.500 left in
00:34:23.960 the house,
00:34:24.880 doesn't it
00:34:25.380 make more
00:34:25.820 sense to
00:34:27.880 have situations
00:34:28.840 where there's
00:34:29.680 one old
00:34:30.440 person who
00:34:31.500 has a big
00:34:33.260 house,
00:34:33.940 but they've
00:34:34.640 got some
00:34:35.080 roommates that
00:34:37.080 are just
00:34:37.440 younger people
00:34:38.160 who want
00:34:39.560 to spend
00:34:39.940 a lot less
00:34:40.580 money on
00:34:42.460 rent.
00:34:43.740 Now, I
00:34:44.380 know that
00:34:44.740 that's already
00:34:45.320 a thing,
00:34:46.460 but it feels
00:34:47.660 like it could
00:34:48.240 be a much
00:34:48.680 bigger thing
00:34:49.420 because there
00:34:50.360 must be
00:34:50.880 just zillions
00:34:53.340 of old people
00:34:54.200 who are living
00:34:54.800 alone who
00:34:56.420 would just
00:34:56.800 love to
00:34:57.280 have at
00:34:58.220 least one
00:34:59.280 roommate that's
00:35:01.100 younger and
00:35:01.960 brings a little
00:35:03.160 noise and a
00:35:04.160 little life into
00:35:04.820 the house.
00:35:05.260 But if you
00:35:06.360 get the
00:35:06.720 wrong roommate,
00:35:07.640 it's a
00:35:08.180 living hell,
00:35:08.860 so I can
00:35:09.180 see why
00:35:09.540 people don't
00:35:10.100 do it.
00:35:12.620 Meanwhile,
00:35:13.420 CBS News is
00:35:14.560 offering Trump
00:35:15.920 $20 million
00:35:16.700 to settle
00:35:17.640 his lawsuit
00:35:18.500 over that
00:35:20.140 Kamala
00:35:21.360 interview on
00:35:22.380 60 Minutes,
00:35:24.080 but in
00:35:24.700 protest,
00:35:25.660 the CBS
00:35:26.160 News president
00:35:27.120 Wendy
00:35:27.680 McMahon
00:35:28.900 has threatened
00:35:30.580 to resign,
00:35:32.160 and apparently
00:35:33.360 they accepted
00:35:34.520 her resignation
00:35:35.240 so it was
00:35:36.460 more than a
00:35:37.000 threat.
00:35:38.760 So they
00:35:39.580 accepted her
00:35:40.220 resignation.
00:35:41.960 But we
00:35:42.540 don't know
00:35:42.900 yet if
00:35:43.320 Trump will
00:35:43.820 accept the
00:35:44.400 $20 million.
00:35:47.000 Of course,
00:35:48.020 this gives
00:35:49.220 us a good
00:35:49.740 idea for
00:35:50.300 reducing the
00:35:51.040 national debt.
00:35:53.420 I think
00:35:54.200 Trump should
00:35:54.780 just keep
00:35:55.420 suing the
00:35:56.460 fake news
00:35:57.160 and then
00:35:58.640 use that
00:35:59.120 money to
00:35:59.920 pay down
00:36:00.420 the debt.
00:36:01.760 So this
00:36:02.360 would be
00:36:02.600 the first
00:36:02.960 $20 million.
00:36:05.240 because you
00:36:06.400 could sue
00:36:06.820 the fake
00:36:07.300 news all
00:36:07.940 day long.
00:36:09.280 You're like,
00:36:09.680 oh, there's
00:36:10.160 one.
00:36:11.240 Oh, there's
00:36:11.880 one.
00:36:12.580 $20 million,
00:36:13.400 $20 million.
00:36:15.060 Well, okay,
00:36:16.260 that's not my
00:36:16.800 best idea.
00:36:17.420 Well, you
00:36:21.380 probably heard
00:36:22.820 the news
00:36:23.420 yesterday, I
00:36:24.060 talked about
00:36:24.540 it, that
00:36:25.580 Kash Patel
00:36:26.620 and Dan
00:36:27.180 Bongino
00:36:27.640 both say
00:36:28.620 they've seen
00:36:29.940 the Epstein
00:36:30.640 files and
00:36:32.180 he did not
00:36:32.860 kill himself.
00:36:34.760 I'm sorry,
00:36:35.760 and he did
00:36:36.240 kill himself.
00:36:37.080 He committed
00:36:37.540 suicide.
00:36:38.540 He was not
00:36:39.100 murdered.
00:36:39.440 Now, almost
00:36:41.800 all of you
00:36:42.380 are going
00:36:42.760 to say,
00:36:43.480 I don't
00:36:43.820 believe that.
00:36:45.160 I believe
00:36:45.700 he was
00:36:46.100 totally
00:36:46.440 murdered.
00:36:47.200 It doesn't
00:36:47.580 add up.
00:36:49.300 And I
00:36:50.220 saw a post
00:36:51.420 by Chris
00:36:52.080 Martinson
00:36:52.600 who said,
00:36:54.460 my PhD is
00:36:55.480 in pathology
00:36:56.440 toxicology.
00:36:57.580 I performed
00:36:58.200 autopsies.
00:36:59.420 I know
00:36:59.940 enough about
00:37:00.520 anatomy to
00:37:01.240 know that
00:37:02.340 a slump
00:37:03.080 hanging,
00:37:04.180 so that
00:37:04.540 would be
00:37:04.980 the way he
00:37:06.860 was hanging
00:37:07.360 himself,
00:37:07.820 is not
00:37:08.840 going to
00:37:09.300 fracture
00:37:09.680 the hyoid
00:37:10.820 bone into
00:37:11.560 three pieces.
00:37:13.020 Epstein
00:37:13.300 did not
00:37:13.900 kill himself.
00:37:14.680 He was
00:37:14.880 strangled by
00:37:15.500 a strong
00:37:16.060 man.
00:37:17.200 This
00:37:17.440 indicates we
00:37:18.200 have a
00:37:18.500 huge problem.
00:37:20.420 So,
00:37:20.800 what do
00:37:21.100 you think?
00:37:22.620 Do you
00:37:22.980 think that
00:37:23.440 there was
00:37:23.840 a national
00:37:25.060 secret so
00:37:25.980 great that
00:37:27.820 Bongino
00:37:28.780 and Patel,
00:37:30.560 being patriots
00:37:31.800 and being
00:37:32.420 honest people
00:37:33.320 in general,
00:37:34.800 do you
00:37:35.240 think they
00:37:35.600 were warned
00:37:36.340 that they
00:37:37.260 just
00:37:37.720 can't
00:37:38.240 tell the
00:37:38.720 truth about
00:37:39.280 this?
00:37:40.260 And they
00:37:40.800 were told,
00:37:41.500 look,
00:37:41.860 you're
00:37:42.120 going to
00:37:42.160 have to
00:37:42.420 go out
00:37:42.680 and lie
00:37:43.060 because if
00:37:45.160 the public
00:37:45.660 found out
00:37:46.300 what really
00:37:47.500 went on
00:37:48.000 with Epstein,
00:37:49.280 it would
00:37:50.760 be a big
00:37:51.180 problem.
00:37:52.400 What do
00:37:52.920 you think?
00:37:54.120 Because I
00:37:56.080 have a
00:37:56.680 natural
00:37:57.740 inclination
00:37:58.500 to believe
00:38:00.160 what Dan
00:38:01.020 Bongino
00:38:01.600 says.
00:38:03.160 Because there's
00:38:03.980 just nothing
00:38:04.640 about him
00:38:05.400 that suggests
00:38:06.460 he would
00:38:06.800 be a liar.
00:38:07.720 Just
00:38:08.280 nothing.
00:38:09.400 And there's
00:38:10.060 nothing about
00:38:10.820 Patel that
00:38:11.880 would suggest
00:38:12.520 that he
00:38:12.900 would just
00:38:13.240 go on
00:38:13.640 camera and
00:38:14.820 tell a
00:38:15.280 huge whopping
00:38:16.120 lie.
00:38:17.760 But they
00:38:18.480 both say
00:38:19.160 stuff like
00:38:19.960 we saw
00:38:20.460 the file.
00:38:23.180 If there
00:38:23.940 were something
00:38:24.520 that were a
00:38:25.320 big state
00:38:25.940 secret, it
00:38:27.360 wouldn't be
00:38:27.740 in the file,
00:38:28.960 would it?
00:38:29.840 it seems
00:38:31.980 like the
00:38:32.360 only way
00:38:32.780 this makes
00:38:33.260 sense is
00:38:34.840 if somebody
00:38:36.100 dark from
00:38:38.700 the dark
00:38:39.280 part of
00:38:39.660 the government
00:38:40.520 tapped him
00:38:41.480 on the
00:38:41.780 shoulder and
00:38:42.280 said,
00:38:42.720 here's the
00:38:44.040 deal.
00:38:44.980 You really
00:38:46.060 can't tell
00:38:46.900 the public
00:38:47.400 about this
00:38:48.160 Epstein
00:38:48.520 situation.
00:38:49.860 We can't
00:38:50.640 tell you
00:38:51.040 who killed
00:38:51.640 him.
00:38:52.560 You can't
00:38:53.400 tell them
00:38:54.000 what Epstein
00:38:55.220 was up to.
00:38:56.960 The only
00:38:57.680 thing you
00:38:58.040 could do
00:38:58.460 is comment
00:39:00.120 on the
00:39:00.600 files.
00:39:01.220 The files
00:39:01.760 say that
00:39:02.260 it was
00:39:02.520 a suicide
00:39:03.320 and the
00:39:04.880 files say
00:39:05.600 that he
00:39:06.060 was just
00:39:07.240 having lots
00:39:07.820 of parties
00:39:08.280 at the
00:39:08.640 house and
00:39:10.000 he wasn't
00:39:10.720 working for
00:39:11.220 any
00:39:11.540 intelligence
00:39:12.380 operation.
00:39:15.220 Do you
00:39:15.900 believe that?
00:39:17.180 That he
00:39:17.520 also was not
00:39:18.340 working for
00:39:18.920 any kind
00:39:19.340 of intelligence
00:39:19.980 operation?
00:39:21.500 Because I
00:39:22.220 think that's
00:39:22.720 the official
00:39:23.320 story,
00:39:24.000 right?
00:39:24.240 We all
00:39:26.880 assume that
00:39:28.420 he was
00:39:28.800 working for
00:39:29.420 at least
00:39:29.840 one
00:39:30.180 intelligence
00:39:30.740 agency,
00:39:31.960 but maybe
00:39:34.260 not, or
00:39:35.940 at least
00:39:36.180 that might
00:39:36.560 be the
00:39:36.880 official story.
00:39:38.520 So, I
00:39:39.680 don't know.
00:39:41.620 The fact
00:39:42.540 that Kash
00:39:45.760 Patel and
00:39:46.560 Dan Bongino
00:39:47.300 are both
00:39:47.820 patriots
00:39:48.520 suggests that
00:39:50.020 if somebody
00:39:50.560 said, for
00:39:51.360 the benefit
00:39:51.860 of the
00:39:52.200 country,
00:39:52.620 you're just
00:39:52.940 going to
00:39:53.160 have to
00:39:53.440 lie about
00:39:53.920 this,
00:39:55.000 that would
00:39:55.400 be enough
00:39:55.840 for them
00:39:56.160 to lie.
00:39:57.680 Because if
00:39:58.360 they knew
00:39:58.940 it was for
00:39:59.340 the benefit
00:39:59.740 of the
00:40:00.060 country and
00:40:00.580 it was a
00:40:00.940 really big
00:40:01.360 deal,
00:40:02.520 well, you'd
00:40:03.080 lie to
00:40:03.540 if the
00:40:05.000 right people
00:40:05.420 asked you
00:40:05.840 to do it.
00:40:06.960 So, I
00:40:07.520 think they're
00:40:07.820 both honest,
00:40:09.200 but in this
00:40:09.860 specific situation,
00:40:11.160 there might be
00:40:11.800 some national
00:40:12.500 interest or
00:40:14.320 a safety
00:40:14.940 situation that
00:40:16.880 caused them
00:40:18.020 to be a
00:40:18.420 little less
00:40:20.360 than accurate,
00:40:21.260 let's just
00:40:21.680 say.
00:40:21.940 according to
00:40:24.860 Newsmax,
00:40:25.740 the Supreme
00:40:26.280 Court has
00:40:27.000 backed Trump
00:40:27.740 on ending
00:40:29.060 the temporary
00:40:30.260 protected
00:40:30.920 status for
00:40:32.640 350,000
00:40:34.000 Venezuelans.
00:40:35.420 So,
00:40:35.840 apparently,
00:40:36.480 there were a
00:40:37.440 whole bunch of
00:40:37.920 Venezuelans in
00:40:38.740 the country
00:40:39.260 under a
00:40:41.380 TPS program.
00:40:45.100 TPS.
00:40:46.280 Sounds like
00:40:47.120 something from
00:40:47.720 that movie,
00:40:48.400 Office Space.
00:40:49.080 But anyway,
00:40:50.200 the TPS
00:40:50.960 program was
00:40:51.980 designed so
00:40:53.520 that people
00:40:54.020 from a
00:40:54.920 country that's
00:40:55.840 stricken by
00:40:56.520 war or
00:40:57.260 natural
00:40:57.660 disasters or
00:41:00.220 other
00:41:00.740 catastrophes
00:41:01.900 could come
00:41:03.220 into the
00:41:03.620 United States
00:41:04.320 and work.
00:41:06.280 But that
00:41:07.500 made it hard
00:41:08.140 to deport
00:41:08.700 them, so
00:41:09.640 now the
00:41:10.300 Trump
00:41:10.660 administration
00:41:11.320 got the
00:41:11.980 vote from
00:41:13.380 the Supreme
00:41:13.860 Court so
00:41:15.460 they can
00:41:15.920 deport them.
00:41:16.860 a lot of
00:41:20.200 them found
00:41:20.640 work, so
00:41:21.440 I'm not
00:41:21.780 sure that
00:41:22.200 they're the
00:41:22.560 dangerous
00:41:22.960 ones.
00:41:23.500 It's not
00:41:23.800 like they're
00:41:24.140 the gang
00:41:24.560 members,
00:41:26.060 but have
00:41:28.340 they found
00:41:28.800 all the
00:41:29.140 gang
00:41:29.380 members?
00:41:31.440 I don't
00:41:31.760 know.
00:41:32.340 I feel
00:41:32.660 like maybe
00:41:35.040 they're just
00:41:35.520 getting ready
00:41:36.180 in that
00:41:36.520 one.
00:41:39.020 Did you
00:41:39.660 know that
00:41:40.380 in the
00:41:40.760 recent dust
00:41:41.700 up between
00:41:42.320 India and
00:41:43.020 Pakistan,
00:41:43.480 apparently
00:41:45.360 India is
00:41:46.280 accusing
00:41:48.440 Pakistan of
00:41:50.760 working with
00:41:51.420 China for
00:41:52.200 their targeting.
00:41:54.120 So
00:41:54.420 allegedly
00:41:56.060 China was
00:41:58.200 providing for
00:42:00.160 Pakistan real
00:42:01.140 time satellite
00:42:01.820 data and
00:42:02.560 radar tweaks
00:42:03.420 and eyes
00:42:05.440 on the
00:42:06.000 troops and
00:42:06.820 more than
00:42:08.120 just weapon
00:42:08.660 sales.
00:42:11.640 So that's
00:42:12.700 bad.
00:42:13.480 So that
00:42:13.940 would put
00:42:14.400 India on
00:42:15.560 a war
00:42:17.580 footing with
00:42:18.300 China if
00:42:20.340 they took
00:42:20.760 this seriously.
00:42:21.680 We'll see
00:42:21.980 if they do.
00:42:23.560 But yeah,
00:42:24.480 China's backing
00:42:25.220 Pakistan.
00:42:26.220 U.S. is
00:42:26.900 backing India
00:42:27.840 probably,
00:42:29.280 directly or
00:42:30.000 indirectly.
00:42:32.780 So that's
00:42:33.720 dangerous.
00:42:35.600 There's a
00:42:36.200 story in the
00:42:36.900 New York
00:42:37.240 Post about
00:42:38.480 one of the
00:42:39.160 big AI
00:42:40.680 founders,
00:42:41.940 Setskiver,
00:42:44.980 that's his
00:42:46.700 last name.
00:42:48.180 Anyway,
00:42:48.620 he's one of
00:42:49.140 the Open
00:42:49.540 AI co-founders
00:42:50.720 and he
00:42:51.680 wanted to
00:42:52.100 build a
00:42:52.560 doomsday
00:42:53.120 bunker to
00:42:55.180 protect the
00:42:55.860 company's
00:42:56.440 scientists before
00:42:57.520 an artificial
00:42:58.220 general
00:42:59.160 intelligence is
00:43:00.080 released.
00:43:01.960 What do you
00:43:02.780 think of
00:43:03.060 that?
00:43:03.920 Is that
00:43:04.480 telling you
00:43:04.960 that AI
00:43:05.660 is more
00:43:06.180 dangerous than
00:43:06.960 they're telling
00:43:07.420 us if the
00:43:09.180 person who
00:43:09.700 knows the
00:43:10.160 most about
00:43:10.760 them wanted
00:43:12.140 to build a
00:43:12.740 doomsday bunker
00:43:13.860 to get away
00:43:14.620 from the AI
00:43:15.340 that they were
00:43:15.900 developing?
00:43:17.860 And would a
00:43:18.700 bunker be the
00:43:19.460 way to escape
00:43:20.200 from AI?
00:43:22.060 I don't know.
00:43:24.000 But here's
00:43:25.280 what I can add
00:43:25.980 for context.
00:43:27.980 Rich people,
00:43:29.040 or people
00:43:29.800 spending other
00:43:30.560 people's money,
00:43:31.440 they would be
00:43:31.940 spending the
00:43:32.460 company's money,
00:43:34.060 are not like
00:43:34.960 the rest of
00:43:35.500 us.
00:43:37.800 And in this
00:43:38.680 case, I would
00:43:39.480 not be rich
00:43:40.100 enough to build
00:43:40.800 a doomsday
00:43:41.440 bunker for
00:43:42.120 myself.
00:43:43.400 So, if you
00:43:45.100 were a
00:43:45.660 multi-billionaire
00:43:46.600 or your
00:43:48.280 company was
00:43:49.140 willing to
00:43:49.640 spend the
00:43:50.080 money on
00:43:50.500 your behalf,
00:43:52.440 if you
00:43:52.880 said, well,
00:43:53.520 there's only
00:43:53.920 a 1% chance
00:43:55.240 that I'll
00:43:55.680 need a
00:43:56.040 bunker,
00:43:57.920 well, you
00:43:58.680 don't care.
00:43:59.660 If you're a
00:44:00.180 billionaire, you
00:44:00.900 can afford a
00:44:01.560 bunker, and
00:44:02.200 if it makes
00:44:02.980 you feel better,
00:44:04.140 it doesn't
00:44:04.460 matter if
00:44:04.800 there's a
00:44:05.120 1% risk.
00:44:06.540 But the
00:44:07.020 rest of us
00:44:07.620 wouldn't do
00:44:09.560 something for
00:44:10.180 a 1% risk.
00:44:12.080 So, it
00:44:12.600 doesn't really
00:44:13.180 tell you that
00:44:13.980 AI is that
00:44:15.020 dangerous.
00:44:16.340 It's more a
00:44:17.360 comment about
00:44:18.380 rich people
00:44:20.240 who have
00:44:20.660 too much
00:44:21.200 money, and
00:44:22.980 they can
00:44:23.560 build a
00:44:23.940 bunker and
00:44:24.400 you can't.
00:44:25.880 So, I
00:44:27.400 don't get too
00:44:28.120 worried about
00:44:28.760 rich people
00:44:29.460 building
00:44:30.020 bunkers,
00:44:31.040 because I
00:44:31.640 think rich
00:44:32.120 people have
00:44:32.660 been building
00:44:33.240 bunkers for
00:44:34.300 50 years,
00:44:36.240 right?
00:44:36.800 And they
00:44:37.620 haven't needed
00:44:38.120 them yet.
00:44:40.560 So, it's
00:44:41.260 probably not so
00:44:41.880 much about
00:44:42.320 risk as it
00:44:43.520 is about
00:44:44.080 people who
00:44:45.160 have a lot
00:44:45.500 of money.
00:44:47.960 Well, Spain
00:44:49.320 is having
00:44:49.900 another problem.
00:44:50.780 You know that
00:44:51.200 they had that
00:44:52.360 big problem
00:44:52.880 with losing
00:44:53.420 power to a
00:44:54.360 bunch of
00:44:54.820 places in
00:44:56.060 Spain.
00:44:56.520 Now, according
00:44:57.000 to the Daily
00:44:57.580 Mail, they're
00:44:59.080 losing all their
00:45:00.160 telecom at the
00:45:01.040 same time.
00:45:02.440 So, not
00:45:03.140 even just
00:45:03.640 one entity,
00:45:05.680 it's a whole
00:45:06.180 bunch of
00:45:06.720 telecom
00:45:07.320 entities.
00:45:08.500 So, they're
00:45:08.800 losing their
00:45:09.680 internet access
00:45:12.740 and their
00:45:13.500 cell phones
00:45:14.140 all at the
00:45:14.600 same time.
00:45:16.200 And the
00:45:18.000 official
00:45:18.600 explanation is
00:45:19.800 that they
00:45:20.200 were doing
00:45:20.580 a network
00:45:21.100 upgrade.
00:45:23.520 Do you
00:45:24.280 think that
00:45:24.760 a network
00:45:25.560 upgrade took
00:45:27.180 out every
00:45:27.860 company that
00:45:28.600 provides cell
00:45:29.300 service?
00:45:29.760 what part
00:45:32.660 of the
00:45:32.920 network
00:45:33.320 upgrade
00:45:33.940 were they
00:45:35.980 doing?
00:45:36.780 Is there
00:45:37.320 really a
00:45:37.760 choke point
00:45:38.260 for that?
00:45:39.300 I don't
00:45:39.840 know if I
00:45:40.140 believe that.
00:45:41.420 But it
00:45:41.820 does seem
00:45:42.240 to me that
00:45:42.700 we're getting
00:45:43.060 to a point
00:45:43.680 where the
00:45:45.040 world is
00:45:45.620 too complicated
00:45:46.480 and too
00:45:47.040 connected so
00:45:48.820 that things
00:45:50.200 are going to
00:45:50.580 break because
00:45:51.560 it's so
00:45:52.040 complicated we
00:45:52.920 don't even
00:45:53.320 know where
00:45:54.880 to look and
00:45:55.440 how to fix
00:45:55.960 it.
00:45:57.040 And that
00:45:58.880 could be part
00:45:59.440 of it.
00:45:59.760 So it
00:46:00.540 could be
00:46:00.860 that Spain
00:46:01.660 just has
00:46:03.900 too much
00:46:04.960 technology and
00:46:06.040 not enough
00:46:06.420 people who
00:46:06.900 know how to
00:46:07.320 fix it.
00:46:08.260 Could be.
00:46:09.740 Or it
00:46:10.500 could be a
00:46:11.280 conspiracy theory
00:46:12.260 there's something
00:46:12.840 worse going
00:46:13.420 on.
00:46:15.340 Well, it
00:46:16.780 seems to me
00:46:17.940 that whenever I
00:46:18.600 read a story
00:46:19.240 about China,
00:46:20.800 it's about
00:46:22.120 some amazing
00:46:23.020 thing that
00:46:23.580 they're getting
00:46:23.980 ready to do.
00:46:25.800 So here
00:46:26.680 again, China
00:46:27.540 is going to
00:46:28.080 build a
00:46:28.520 space-based
00:46:29.520 supercomputer
00:46:30.240 and they're
00:46:32.160 already building
00:46:32.700 it.
00:46:33.080 So they've
00:46:33.540 already set
00:46:34.000 up some
00:46:34.460 satellites.
00:46:35.980 So I guess
00:46:36.440 the satellites
00:46:37.180 will operate
00:46:38.300 as essentially
00:46:41.860 nodes of a
00:46:42.880 supercomputer that
00:46:44.020 would be
00:46:44.360 surrounding the
00:46:45.120 Earth.
00:46:46.400 And it
00:46:48.300 saves a bunch
00:46:49.300 of money on
00:46:49.840 energy, they
00:46:50.780 say.
00:46:51.120 And I
00:46:52.120 guess that's
00:46:52.700 because it's
00:46:53.860 very cold in
00:46:54.760 space.
00:46:56.060 Is that why
00:46:56.600 they're saving
00:46:57.120 money on
00:46:57.660 energy?
00:46:58.940 But they're
00:47:01.240 already putting
00:47:02.080 their first 12
00:47:03.340 satellites up.
00:47:04.820 There are going
00:47:05.220 to be 2,800
00:47:06.120 satellites when
00:47:07.040 they're done.
00:47:07.760 And it will
00:47:08.140 form an AI
00:47:10.560 powered satellite
00:47:11.960 computing system
00:47:14.420 with 744
00:47:16.340 trillion operations
00:47:17.820 per second.
00:47:19.580 And they
00:47:20.340 will communicate
00:47:21.120 with the other
00:47:21.720 satellites at
00:47:22.480 some huge
00:47:23.680 speed.
00:47:25.000 And it
00:47:26.920 will operate
00:47:27.420 at 1,000
00:47:28.320 pops.
00:47:29.620 That's
00:47:30.220 peta
00:47:30.680 operations per
00:47:31.680 second.
00:47:33.060 So that
00:47:33.820 seems like a
00:47:34.380 lot.
00:47:36.080 Now, do you
00:47:38.000 feel comfortable
00:47:38.760 knowing that the
00:47:39.620 Earth will be
00:47:41.040 surrounded by a
00:47:42.660 Chinese
00:47:43.020 supercomputer?
00:47:47.280 It makes me a
00:47:48.500 little uncomfortable.
00:47:51.820 Speaking of
00:47:52.700 satellites, I saw
00:47:53.640 a story that
00:47:54.680 said that South
00:47:56.660 Africa might
00:47:57.660 allow Elon
00:47:58.460 Musk to
00:47:59.520 provide
00:48:00.540 Starlink
00:48:01.180 because Trump
00:48:04.940 is going to
00:48:05.380 visit or
00:48:05.820 something.
00:48:06.920 But my
00:48:08.040 understanding is
00:48:08.960 that the law
00:48:09.800 said that
00:48:11.140 Elon Musk
00:48:12.620 couldn't
00:48:13.340 provide
00:48:13.780 Starlink
00:48:14.400 because he's
00:48:15.500 not black.
00:48:17.380 So would
00:48:18.280 they change
00:48:18.980 the law
00:48:19.500 just for
00:48:20.440 Elon Musk?
00:48:22.160 I don't
00:48:22.460 know.
00:48:23.260 There's
00:48:23.480 going to be
00:48:23.780 more to
00:48:24.100 that story
00:48:24.620 coming.
00:48:26.920 But not
00:48:27.860 to be
00:48:28.180 outdone,
00:48:29.060 a U.S.
00:48:29.860 team of
00:48:30.620 developers
00:48:32.540 has developed
00:48:33.900 the world's
00:48:34.680 fastest
00:48:35.220 quantum
00:48:35.880 switch to
00:48:37.240 supercharge
00:48:38.100 AI by a
00:48:39.100 million times,
00:48:40.460 according to
00:48:40.960 interesting
00:48:41.420 engineers.
00:48:42.620 So they
00:48:43.220 built the
00:48:43.740 world's
00:48:44.200 fastest
00:48:44.600 transistor
00:48:45.400 using
00:48:46.500 laser
00:48:47.020 pulses
00:48:47.520 and
00:48:48.020 graphene.
00:48:50.580 But the
00:48:51.180 thing about
00:48:52.300 this is
00:48:52.840 that
00:48:53.220 apparently
00:48:55.280 this is
00:48:57.060 fairly
00:48:57.520 practical.
00:48:59.400 So whenever
00:49:00.080 you hear a
00:49:00.700 story like
00:49:01.120 this,
00:49:01.420 there's
00:49:01.620 usually,
00:49:02.440 and it
00:49:02.980 will take
00:49:03.340 us 30
00:49:03.960 years to
00:49:04.620 figure out
00:49:05.080 how to
00:49:05.360 produce this
00:49:06.120 in a
00:49:07.260 mass way.
00:49:08.200 but
00:49:09.460 apparently
00:49:10.640 because this
00:49:11.720 operates at
00:49:12.840 room temperature,
00:49:14.820 there's a
00:49:15.780 pretty good
00:49:16.120 chance that
00:49:16.720 it'll come
00:49:17.400 soon.
00:49:18.720 So the
00:49:19.120 world's
00:49:19.700 fastest
00:49:20.120 quantum
00:49:20.740 switch,
00:49:21.800 so your
00:49:22.260 AI would
00:49:23.620 be a
00:49:23.940 million times
00:49:24.720 faster.
00:49:27.040 Take that,
00:49:27.960 China,
00:49:28.800 in your
00:49:29.180 face.
00:49:29.540 and that
00:49:31.860 the path
00:49:32.320 to
00:49:32.640 commercialization
00:49:33.700 is already
00:49:34.140 underway
00:49:34.580 because
00:49:36.040 the
00:49:37.940 transistor
00:49:38.500 works in
00:49:39.280 normal room
00:49:40.160 conditions,
00:49:40.980 so it won't
00:49:41.440 be that hard
00:49:41.920 to make it
00:49:42.340 apparently.
00:49:45.260 Well,
00:49:46.000 and then
00:49:46.700 China,
00:49:47.560 not to be
00:49:48.240 outdone,
00:49:49.800 has a new
00:49:50.580 battery
00:49:51.180 technology
00:49:52.220 where you
00:49:52.900 can charge
00:49:54.380 it in
00:49:54.880 five minutes
00:49:55.740 to go
00:49:56.320 450
00:49:57.320 or more
00:49:59.000 kilometers.
00:49:59.540 according to
00:50:01.160 interesting
00:50:01.720 engineering.
00:50:03.360 So,
00:50:03.960 you know,
00:50:04.340 I read
00:50:05.340 you a story
00:50:05.880 every day
00:50:06.580 about,
00:50:07.800 you know,
00:50:08.740 battery
00:50:09.040 technology
00:50:09.680 working,
00:50:10.360 but this
00:50:10.760 one's already
00:50:11.400 done.
00:50:12.720 So this
00:50:13.420 is not
00:50:13.800 future and
00:50:14.580 it's not
00:50:14.920 in the
00:50:15.180 lab.
00:50:15.660 They're
00:50:15.840 actually
00:50:16.240 demonstrating
00:50:16.920 this now.
00:50:17.620 So they
00:50:18.320 can make
00:50:18.800 a battery
00:50:19.440 that will
00:50:22.020 have
00:50:22.260 450
00:50:23.200 kilometers
00:50:24.600 in just
00:50:25.140 five minutes
00:50:25.880 of charging.
00:50:27.300 That's
00:50:27.820 pretty good.
00:50:28.280 according to
00:50:30.240 Breitbart
00:50:30.560 News,
00:50:31.500 the Russian
00:50:32.040 economy
00:50:33.000 is plummeting
00:50:34.600 after Trump
00:50:36.740 took office.
00:50:37.960 So they
00:50:38.760 just got
00:50:39.240 their GDP
00:50:39.980 and it
00:50:40.520 was only
00:50:40.800 1.4%,
00:50:42.060 which is
00:50:43.080 way down
00:50:43.640 from
00:50:44.040 4.5%
00:50:45.480 in the
00:50:46.540 last quarter
00:50:47.160 of 2024.
00:50:48.060 so some
00:50:50.640 of it is
00:50:51.080 because of
00:50:51.740 oil prices
00:50:52.480 going down,
00:50:53.480 some of
00:50:53.840 it's because
00:50:54.420 of some
00:50:56.000 other things.
00:50:58.060 But if you
00:51:00.200 want to put
00:51:00.600 that in
00:51:00.980 context,
00:51:02.840 they're still
00:51:03.560 doing better
00:51:04.140 than a lot
00:51:04.600 of Western
00:51:05.060 countries
00:51:05.680 because it
00:51:07.260 turns out
00:51:07.740 everybody's
00:51:08.460 having a
00:51:08.860 bad time
00:51:09.380 at the
00:51:09.660 moment,
00:51:10.020 at least
00:51:10.280 GDP-wise.
00:51:11.320 So if
00:51:12.480 you say
00:51:12.820 to yourself,
00:51:13.520 my God,
00:51:14.920 Russia will
00:51:15.440 never survive
00:51:16.260 having this
00:51:17.040 1.4%
00:51:18.880 GDP,
00:51:20.700 well,
00:51:21.600 it might be
00:51:22.660 better than
00:51:23.200 some of the
00:51:23.740 European countries.
00:51:25.060 So yeah,
00:51:25.700 they can survive.
00:51:27.260 So they're not
00:51:28.160 in that much
00:51:28.620 trouble.
00:51:28.900 The Ukrainian
00:51:32.360 Armed Forces
00:51:33.120 are going to
00:51:33.780 deploy something
00:51:35.260 called a
00:51:35.840 Krampus,
00:51:37.500 K-R-A-M-P-U-S.
00:51:39.900 I don't know
00:51:40.220 what it stands
00:51:40.680 for,
00:51:41.000 something in
00:51:41.620 Ukraine,
00:51:42.140 I guess.
00:51:43.180 But it's a
00:51:43.800 flamethrower
00:51:44.640 robot that
00:51:46.880 was fed in
00:51:47.460 the back of
00:51:47.880 a truck.
00:51:49.680 Now,
00:51:50.380 remember I've
00:51:51.320 told you that
00:51:52.060 the Ukrainian,
00:51:54.320 at least the
00:51:54.800 front line,
00:51:56.240 is going to
00:51:56.800 turn into
00:51:57.300 an all-robot
00:51:58.220 war.
00:51:58.900 It's getting
00:51:59.820 really close
00:52:00.700 because it's
00:52:01.960 drones and
00:52:02.860 robot dogs
00:52:03.980 and other
00:52:05.560 stuff, but
00:52:06.460 this is one
00:52:07.360 more thing to
00:52:08.000 add to it.
00:52:10.060 Aren't we
00:52:10.920 getting really
00:52:12.160 close to the
00:52:13.760 point where
00:52:14.220 the entire
00:52:14.820 front line
00:52:15.680 between the
00:52:16.700 Ukraine and
00:52:17.400 Russia is
00:52:18.680 robots?
00:52:20.640 Because
00:52:21.320 they're clearly
00:52:23.500 going to be
00:52:24.160 a better deal
00:52:25.400 than humans
00:52:26.240 because the
00:52:27.180 remember when
00:52:28.540 we're talking
00:52:29.940 every day
00:52:30.540 about the
00:52:31.300 Ukrainians
00:52:31.980 were running
00:52:32.460 out of
00:52:32.780 soldiers?
00:52:33.800 So they
00:52:34.440 were doing
00:52:34.800 these forced
00:52:35.620 conscriptions
00:52:37.560 and stuff
00:52:38.220 like that.
00:52:39.200 When was
00:52:39.660 the last
00:52:40.020 time you
00:52:40.420 heard that
00:52:40.820 the Ukrainians
00:52:41.660 are running
00:52:42.100 out of
00:52:42.580 soldiers?
00:52:44.920 I feel
00:52:45.640 like that
00:52:45.980 news just
00:52:46.540 stopped.
00:52:48.280 So if
00:52:49.960 they're not
00:52:50.340 running out
00:52:50.820 of soldiers,
00:52:51.700 is it because
00:52:52.920 there's not as
00:52:53.540 much fighting
00:52:54.120 or is it
00:52:55.900 because it's
00:52:56.820 all robots
00:52:57.500 now?
00:52:58.800 You know,
00:52:59.000 there's still
00:52:59.360 soldiers operating
00:53:00.360 the robots,
00:53:01.160 but I don't
00:53:02.460 know.
00:53:03.120 To me,
00:53:03.440 it looks like
00:53:03.920 they must be
00:53:04.540 pretty close
00:53:05.220 to an
00:53:06.480 all-robot
00:53:07.300 front line.
00:53:10.980 Trump says
00:53:11.900 he's going to
00:53:12.360 leave it to
00:53:12.860 Ukraine and
00:53:13.560 Russia to
00:53:14.080 work out a
00:53:14.620 deal,
00:53:15.320 which to me
00:53:16.720 sounds exactly
00:53:17.540 like he
00:53:18.020 doesn't think
00:53:18.600 they'll ever
00:53:18.980 work out a
00:53:19.620 deal,
00:53:20.520 which is what
00:53:21.740 I think.
00:53:22.840 So I guess
00:53:23.780 he just
00:53:24.140 doesn't want
00:53:24.560 to waste
00:53:24.920 his time
00:53:25.420 because neither
00:53:26.140 of them seem
00:53:26.800 that ready
00:53:27.380 to work out
00:53:27.920 a deal.
00:53:28.560 They're just
00:53:28.940 pretending that
00:53:29.680 they are.
00:53:31.020 So I think
00:53:31.580 that's smart.
00:53:32.340 Just stay out
00:53:32.880 of it.
00:53:33.360 If they want
00:53:33.880 to fight,
00:53:34.340 let them
00:53:34.600 fight.
00:53:36.120 Over in
00:53:36.680 Iran,
00:53:37.240 the Supreme
00:53:37.860 Leader said
00:53:40.500 that negotiations
00:53:41.400 with the U.S.
00:53:42.620 about their
00:53:43.300 nuclear program
00:53:44.480 are unlikely
00:53:45.760 to result
00:53:47.280 in a deal
00:53:47.840 and called
00:53:48.340 the Trump
00:53:48.820 administration's
00:53:49.820 latest demands
00:53:51.220 on Iran
00:53:51.980 outrageous.
00:53:54.780 Now,
00:53:55.380 that's,
00:53:55.980 of course,
00:53:56.240 what I said,
00:53:57.620 which is
00:53:58.320 no matter
00:53:59.780 how much
00:54:00.220 optimism
00:54:00.800 you're hearing
00:54:01.420 from Trump
00:54:02.120 about an
00:54:02.960 Iranian deal,
00:54:04.220 there's nothing
00:54:05.340 really that
00:54:06.020 looks like
00:54:06.540 they're going
00:54:08.060 to get a
00:54:08.420 deal.
00:54:09.220 So I don't
00:54:10.020 think there
00:54:10.380 will be a
00:54:11.100 Ukraine-Russia
00:54:11.840 deal.
00:54:12.360 I don't think
00:54:12.840 there will be
00:54:13.160 an Iran-peace
00:54:14.740 deal.
00:54:15.180 I don't know
00:54:15.560 what will
00:54:15.920 happen.
00:54:17.400 Maybe Trump
00:54:18.280 will just
00:54:18.780 squeeze them
00:54:19.600 economically
00:54:20.260 until they
00:54:21.420 change their
00:54:21.920 mind.
00:54:22.500 Maybe.
00:54:23.800 But to me,
00:54:24.700 it doesn't
00:54:25.060 look like
00:54:25.440 there's going
00:54:25.760 to be any
00:54:26.080 kind of a
00:54:26.540 deal with
00:54:26.960 either of
00:54:27.980 those situations.
00:54:31.320 According to
00:54:32.380 The Conversation,
00:54:34.760 there's some
00:54:35.560 research that
00:54:36.300 shows that
00:54:36.900 reading books
00:54:39.360 can help
00:54:40.000 combat loneliness
00:54:41.240 and boost
00:54:42.120 the brain.
00:54:44.000 You know
00:54:44.440 what they
00:54:44.800 could have
00:54:45.300 done instead
00:54:45.920 of spending
00:54:46.500 time doing
00:54:47.340 research?
00:54:48.120 They
00:54:49.820 could have
00:54:50.200 just asked
00:54:50.780 me or
00:54:53.160 anybody who
00:54:53.920 has ever
00:54:54.280 read a
00:54:54.700 book.
00:54:56.760 Wouldn't
00:54:57.280 you have
00:54:57.640 been able
00:54:58.040 to answer
00:54:59.080 this question?
00:55:00.960 Don't you
00:55:01.660 find that if
00:55:02.320 you read
00:55:02.740 fiction and
00:55:03.800 there are
00:55:04.160 characters that
00:55:05.100 are well
00:55:05.460 developed and
00:55:06.240 they're there
00:55:06.640 all the way
00:55:07.060 through the
00:55:07.440 book,
00:55:08.440 don't you
00:55:08.920 feel like
00:55:09.340 you're spending
00:55:09.800 time with
00:55:10.460 the characters?
00:55:11.920 That's why
00:55:12.640 books work.
00:55:13.380 the entire
00:55:14.840 reason that
00:55:15.540 a book
00:55:15.900 works is
00:55:17.280 that you're
00:55:18.100 drawn into
00:55:18.740 the situation
00:55:19.480 as if it's
00:55:20.400 real.
00:55:21.860 You know
00:55:22.860 it's not
00:55:23.260 real, but
00:55:23.780 you still
00:55:24.500 get some
00:55:25.140 of the
00:55:25.420 feelings of
00:55:26.400 reality.
00:55:28.580 So this
00:55:30.460 one's kind
00:55:30.900 of obvious.
00:55:31.820 Yeah, reading
00:55:32.620 would of course
00:55:33.360 be good for
00:55:33.920 your brain,
00:55:35.140 but yeah,
00:55:35.840 of course it
00:55:36.520 would make
00:55:36.820 you feel less
00:55:37.420 lonely if
00:55:38.180 you liked
00:55:38.500 reading.
00:55:41.740 Makes sense
00:55:42.520 to me.
00:55:45.920 Meanwhile,
00:55:46.840 Foxconn,
00:55:48.080 the company,
00:55:49.520 is testing
00:55:50.880 a nursing
00:55:52.240 robot,
00:55:53.400 a neurobot,
00:55:55.440 and the
00:55:57.340 only thing
00:55:57.860 that the
00:55:58.380 neurobot
00:55:59.040 will be
00:55:59.360 able to
00:55:59.620 do will
00:56:00.800 be the
00:56:01.120 easy stuff,
00:56:02.080 so it's
00:56:02.580 not going
00:56:02.920 to be
00:56:03.300 putting
00:56:04.180 thermometers
00:56:04.920 in your
00:56:05.300 butt or
00:56:05.740 anything like
00:56:06.280 that.
00:56:08.080 It'll only
00:56:08.540 be doing
00:56:09.200 things like
00:56:09.820 ferrying
00:56:10.440 medication
00:56:11.040 and samples
00:56:11.680 around the
00:56:12.240 hospital.
00:56:14.120 But Foxconn
00:56:16.000 is feeling
00:56:17.860 that they
00:56:18.400 can really
00:56:19.100 lower costs
00:56:19.940 by these
00:56:20.620 robots.
00:56:22.500 I don't
00:56:22.780 know if
00:56:23.380 the only
00:56:23.700 thing the
00:56:24.100 robot can
00:56:24.640 do is
00:56:25.020 carry
00:56:25.360 medicine
00:56:26.080 around.
00:56:28.380 I'm not
00:56:29.140 really sure
00:56:29.660 these are
00:56:30.160 useful robots.
00:56:32.340 Remember I
00:56:32.920 keep telling
00:56:33.400 you that we
00:56:34.460 don't seem
00:56:35.000 to be close
00:56:35.880 to the point
00:56:37.220 where a
00:56:38.220 humanoid
00:56:38.780 robot can
00:56:39.780 figure out
00:56:40.560 anything
00:56:40.940 new.
00:56:42.340 It'll only
00:56:43.100 be able to
00:56:43.560 do the
00:56:44.120 narrowest
00:56:45.440 little
00:56:45.860 functions,
00:56:46.800 whatever you
00:56:47.320 teach it
00:56:47.720 to do,
00:56:48.460 and it's
00:56:49.220 never going
00:56:49.640 to be able
00:56:49.900 to do
00:56:50.160 something
00:56:50.440 different.
00:56:51.940 If you
00:56:53.000 train the
00:56:53.520 robot to
00:56:54.460 ferry
00:56:54.760 medicine
00:56:55.300 around,
00:56:56.580 even though
00:56:57.100 it would be
00:56:57.440 driven by
00:56:57.980 AI,
00:56:59.540 you're not
00:57:00.020 going to be
00:57:00.320 able to
00:57:00.580 say,
00:57:00.940 oh,
00:57:01.240 there's a
00:57:01.940 spill by
00:57:02.800 bed number
00:57:04.400 13.
00:57:05.020 Can you go
00:57:05.740 clean up that
00:57:06.560 spill?
00:57:06.920 if it's
00:57:08.520 never been
00:57:08.980 trained on
00:57:09.500 that,
00:57:10.320 it won't
00:57:10.800 know how
00:57:11.120 to do
00:57:11.380 that.
00:57:12.480 That's
00:57:12.800 what it
00:57:13.420 seems like
00:57:13.880 to me.
00:57:15.100 So I
00:57:15.640 don't know
00:57:15.920 how close
00:57:16.540 we are
00:57:16.920 on any
00:57:17.180 of that.
00:57:19.100 According
00:57:19.560 to
00:57:19.840 neuroscience
00:57:20.420 news,
00:57:21.800 inflammation
00:57:22.500 in the
00:57:23.120 brain can
00:57:24.620 trigger
00:57:25.120 repetitive
00:57:25.840 behavior.
00:57:27.800 So
00:57:27.900 basically,
00:57:29.020 OCD
00:57:29.900 might be,
00:57:33.080 so they've
00:57:33.700 only tested
00:57:34.220 this on
00:57:34.740 mice.
00:57:35.080 but they
00:57:37.680 can get
00:57:38.020 the mice
00:57:38.480 to act
00:57:39.400 like they
00:57:39.800 have OCD
00:57:40.480 by giving
00:57:43.200 them some
00:57:43.660 brain
00:57:44.020 inflammation.
00:57:45.180 But then
00:57:45.820 they give
00:57:46.200 them a
00:57:46.700 drug that's
00:57:47.440 already FDA
00:57:48.200 approved for
00:57:49.260 humans,
00:57:49.980 I guess.
00:57:51.660 And it
00:57:52.440 takes away
00:57:52.940 the inflammation
00:57:53.660 and then the
00:57:55.160 behavior of
00:57:56.100 the mouse
00:57:56.560 changes.
00:57:58.420 So remember
00:57:59.660 when you
00:58:00.080 believed in
00:58:00.640 free will
00:58:01.180 and then
00:58:02.940 you found
00:58:03.400 out if
00:58:04.360 somebody gives
00:58:05.180 your brain
00:58:05.660 a little
00:58:05.960 inflammation
00:58:06.640 that you
00:58:08.720 turn into
00:58:09.680 a completely
00:58:10.200 different
00:58:10.620 person
00:58:11.000 and suddenly
00:58:12.360 you have
00:58:12.760 OCD.
00:58:14.480 At least
00:58:15.000 the mice
00:58:15.420 do.
00:58:16.880 So no,
00:58:18.020 I don't
00:58:18.420 think we
00:58:18.800 have free
00:58:19.300 will.
00:58:19.800 I think
00:58:20.440 they're just
00:58:20.880 cause and
00:58:21.420 effect.
00:58:23.400 But maybe.
00:58:25.080 So the
00:58:25.640 drugs that
00:58:26.820 decrease the
00:58:27.960 inflammation in
00:58:28.760 your brain
00:58:29.160 already exist
00:58:30.040 for other
00:58:31.360 purposes.
00:58:32.940 So wouldn't
00:58:34.100 that be cool
00:58:34.800 to find out
00:58:36.060 that a lot
00:58:37.240 of your
00:58:37.540 behaviors and
00:58:38.540 your other
00:58:39.680 mental problems
00:58:40.660 were because
00:58:41.340 of, I think
00:58:42.220 they said that
00:58:43.120 autism might
00:58:44.680 be because of
00:58:45.320 this brain
00:58:45.820 inflammation too.
00:58:47.360 Imagine if you
00:58:48.240 could cure all
00:58:49.080 of those things
00:58:49.980 just by reducing
00:58:51.820 the inflammation
00:58:52.660 in your brain.
00:58:53.420 You know how
00:58:56.320 RFK Jr.
00:58:57.380 is talking
00:58:57.720 about all
00:58:58.300 these chronic
00:58:59.100 problems that
00:59:00.000 kids have that
00:59:00.980 were not
00:59:01.740 problems when
00:59:02.820 I was a kid?
00:59:04.620 I wonder if
00:59:05.820 it's because the
00:59:06.640 environment and
00:59:07.580 the plastics and
00:59:08.680 the poor food
00:59:10.760 is causing
00:59:11.900 kids' brains
00:59:12.980 to be inflamed
00:59:14.000 and that
00:59:16.020 suddenly they
00:59:17.020 have more
00:59:17.620 OCD and
00:59:19.560 they have more
00:59:20.200 ADHD and
00:59:21.460 they have more
00:59:22.080 autism.
00:59:23.420 and it's
00:59:24.080 just brain
00:59:24.680 inflammation.
00:59:26.340 Could be.
00:59:27.700 You never
00:59:28.140 know.
00:59:30.800 All right,
00:59:31.560 people,
00:59:32.040 thanks for
00:59:32.460 joining.
00:59:34.760 What I heard
00:59:35.720 yesterday when
00:59:36.420 I was listening
00:59:36.980 to the
00:59:37.540 very long
00:59:39.680 spaces is
00:59:41.580 that a lot
00:59:42.320 of you
00:59:42.720 are listening
00:59:44.760 to my show
00:59:45.860 not for the
00:59:46.560 content at all,
00:59:48.320 but rather
00:59:50.380 you like the
00:59:51.120 feeling
00:59:52.560 of essentially
00:59:54.820 having a
00:59:55.500 friend.
00:59:57.260 And I
00:59:57.800 didn't realize
00:59:58.320 it, but
00:59:58.680 apparently I'm
00:59:59.760 filling a bunch
01:00:00.480 of holes.
01:00:01.720 For some
01:00:02.560 people I'm
01:00:03.140 like a
01:00:03.720 father,
01:00:05.280 which I
01:00:06.760 enjoy,
01:00:07.660 and for
01:00:08.360 other people
01:00:08.940 I'm like
01:00:09.480 their friend
01:00:10.580 that they get
01:00:11.120 to talk to
01:00:11.660 once a day,
01:00:12.680 which is one
01:00:13.520 of the reasons
01:00:13.960 I'm here
01:00:14.780 every day.
01:00:15.300 so you
01:00:16.320 always have
01:00:16.760 at least
01:00:17.060 one friend.
01:00:18.940 And some
01:00:20.160 of you say
01:00:20.620 you're just
01:00:20.980 hooked on
01:00:22.060 the simultaneous
01:00:22.760 step, but I
01:00:24.460 think you're
01:00:24.880 more hooked
01:00:25.380 on the
01:00:26.020 friend part.
01:00:28.440 And I
01:00:29.480 heard a
01:00:29.780 number of
01:00:30.120 people comment
01:00:30.880 that when
01:00:34.000 you listen to
01:00:34.560 my show,
01:00:35.180 it's more
01:00:35.720 like one
01:00:36.180 person talking
01:00:36.840 to you.
01:00:38.260 And I do
01:00:39.040 that intentionally.
01:00:40.660 And it's the
01:00:41.520 reason I do
01:00:42.040 it live.
01:00:42.540 others have
01:00:44.560 suggested,
01:00:45.300 why don't
01:00:45.560 you record
01:00:46.140 the show
01:00:46.640 and then
01:00:47.100 just play
01:00:48.240 it when
01:00:48.540 it's time?
01:00:49.700 And I
01:00:50.000 thought to
01:00:50.320 myself,
01:00:50.840 that would
01:00:51.240 feel so
01:00:51.760 dead.
01:00:53.500 Because right
01:00:54.220 now I'm
01:00:54.900 sort of
01:00:55.420 continuously
01:00:56.280 monitoring your
01:00:57.540 comments.
01:00:59.240 So to me
01:00:59.780 it's like a
01:01:00.340 conversation.
01:01:02.240 So even
01:01:02.820 on my end,
01:01:03.700 it's like
01:01:04.080 you're talking
01:01:04.560 to me and
01:01:05.220 then obviously
01:01:06.660 you're talking
01:01:07.160 to each other
01:01:07.740 too.
01:01:08.720 But to me
01:01:09.680 it's like
01:01:10.160 a real
01:01:11.000 conversation.
01:01:13.540 So if
01:01:14.400 that's what
01:01:14.820 you get
01:01:15.120 out of
01:01:15.400 it,
01:01:15.820 that's what
01:01:16.220 I'll try
01:01:16.720 to make
01:01:17.040 sure you
01:01:17.920 get out
01:01:18.300 of it.
01:01:19.660 All right.
01:01:20.340 I'm going
01:01:20.600 to talk
01:01:20.880 to the
01:01:21.460 beloved
01:01:22.880 people on
01:01:23.900 Locals
01:01:24.500 privately.

01:01:26.660 thanks for
01:01:27.040 joining.
