Dr. Drew, Dr. Greg Gottfeld, and Iggy Azalea join Scott Adams in the kitchen to talk about the dangers of fubbing on your phone in front of your partner and why it s bad for your relationship. Plus, a story about a comedian who accidentally said something that got caught on camera.
00:01:03.580Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.
00:01:08.380It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time.
00:01:11.940But if you'd like to try to elevate your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tanker, a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:07:27.420So, is it possible he thought it was real?
00:07:31.300I don't think so because it was talking about what he was doing and he's not doing that.
00:07:36.840There's no MedBed card as far as I can tell.
00:07:39.680But he sent that around, which made me think maybe somebody else had access to his account.
00:07:46.540And then also, yesterday, he sent out something that was praising CBD, you know, the component within marijuana, for its many medicinal uses.
00:08:00.260Now, you could sort of imagine maybe he would send that out.
00:08:06.840So, I've never seen him promote anything that was, you know, pro-weed, even if it was something we already knew that it was, you know, used medicinally.
00:08:38.480And you set up credit card transaction alerts, a secure VPN for a private connection, and continuous monitoring for our personal info on the dark web?
00:11:14.820But, don't the smart people say that they think the Democrats will be blamed for closing the government?
00:11:20.340If the Democrats are, let's say, predictably easily going to be blamed for it, why would Trump ever agree to their demands that are things that he definitely doesn't want to do?
00:11:33.900You know, like, health care for illegal aliens and stuff.
00:11:38.900So, I don't really think there's any possibility that anything will get fixed.
00:11:44.820They might agree to kick it, you know, kick it down the road.
00:11:48.540That was one of the possibilities, just to delay it again.
00:11:53.020But, they're not going to, you know, he's not going to agree to their demands or anything like that.
00:11:57.120So, Trump was asked about Christopher Wray, who was his FBI head.
00:12:07.520And, he said that Trump said he would imagine, quote, would imagine the Justice Department is investigating him.
00:12:15.200And, one of the reasons that Trump gave is that, apparently, Wray had said that, you know, he didn't know how many FBI people were attending the January 6th thing.
00:12:27.120But, now we know that there might have been close to 300.
00:12:30.960But, what I don't know yet, because it's divided into two movies on one screen.
00:13:20.740Are you in the movie where the FBI has now admitted that they had so many people there on January 6th that they were, in fact, to blame for the bad, you know, the bad outcomes?
00:13:33.220Or, it's complete bullshit and the, all of those law enforcement types, FBI, came in after the people had already entered the building.
00:13:44.440Basically, which one do you think is real?
00:14:03.380So, all it does is give people an opportunity to believe whatever it was that they were inclined to believe before they found out there were 274 FBI people there.
00:14:17.280Well, Eric Adams, no relation, dropped out of the New York City mayor race.
00:14:23.020So, that means it's Mom Dummy and Sliwa and Cuomo.
00:14:29.840And, it turns out that Sliwa is spell-checked to slow.
00:14:37.080I just realized that because it says slow instead of Sliwa in my notes.
00:14:42.820But, nobody thinks that Adams dropping out will swing enough votes to one of the others for anybody else to win except Mom Dummy.
00:14:53.780So, Mom Dummy is on a glide path to easily winning.
00:14:59.040And then, the big question would be, what if Curtis Sliwa also dropped out?
00:15:13.960I mean, maybe that's worse than Mom Dummy.
00:15:16.800Because, there is an argument that if we sacrifice New York City with a terrible mayor who would destroy everything, that that would be pretty expensive.
00:15:28.920But, it would give us another 20 years without a socialist in office.
00:15:34.020Because, we would just say, all right, come on.
00:15:53.140Some members of the right, obviously not people who live in New York City, but people who don't live in New York City might be saying, you know, the very best thing that could happen, all things being equal, is that the left finds out that their philosophy doesn't work by trying it and just showing that none of it works.
00:16:16.280Well, as you know, the problem with the left is that they do not have a cause and effect gene where they can tell, if we do this, the way people will react will be that, and we don't want that.
00:20:32.540Well, according to the No Tricks Zone publication, P. Gosselin is writing that in 2025, the Arctic sea ice, the minimum neared blah, blah, blah.
00:20:45.420But essentially, it's been rising steadily for almost two decades.
00:20:51.980So climate change models would tell you that that ice would melt almost every year.
00:20:58.600So it should be a lot less after two decades.
00:21:28.260And they learned more about melting ice sheets and realized that the climate models were totally wrong on that one variable, the melting ice sheets.
00:21:39.780And that it was a kind of a big deal and could change the results of what you think of it.
00:21:45.920Now, so that's just two stories that were in the news just today.
00:21:50.800How many stories have I read you in the past year or two that were, uh-oh, we just found out something in our climate model was terribly wrong?
00:22:02.320Now, at this point, the only way you could believe that climate change is the, you know, the threat that people say,
00:22:11.380the only way you could believe that is if you believe that climate change is the only science that's valid.
00:22:18.980Because almost everything else is complete bullshit.
00:22:25.460You know, why would climate change be the only exception?
00:23:45.180Now, I wonder why Starmer has the lowest approval that we've ever seen from a, I think, the lowest we've ever seen from a U.K. prime minister.
00:23:55.180Well, it could be because he says dumb shit like that.
00:24:01.160Well, I saw a video by Peter St. Ange, PhD.
00:25:53.240Given that 90 or 97% of all studies are fake, in order to believe that climate change is just what they said, you would have to believe that that was a wild exception.
00:26:06.380And I'm not saying climate change, real or not real.
00:26:10.820I'm saying that all of the subsets of that so-called science, there'd be so many elements of that, so many parts that they think they needed to put into the model,
00:26:24.560that if 90% of the subsets are wrong, well, you're probably not going to be right with your climate models.
00:26:41.400The Georgia State Election Board has voted to subpoena 2020 election physical ballots.
00:26:49.900So the Gateway Pundit is writing about this.
00:26:51.960Now, all this election stuff gets really complicated, but I believe the allegation is that in 2020, if they had access, which they might get now, to the ballots, but also the envelopes that they arrived in,
00:27:10.400and that the main thing they want to check, the easiest thing, is does the number of ballots match the number of envelopes?
00:27:20.120Because nobody should be taking any ballots in, like, just holding them in their hand.
00:27:26.960So if you found that there were a whole bunch of ballots, but they did not equal the number of envelopes, that would be not proof-proof,
00:27:37.080but it would definitely be leaning toward, looks like there's a whole bunch of fake ballots, because they don't have an envelope.
00:27:47.680I think there's 20,000 votes that are in question for 2020.
00:27:53.080You know, I don't want to get excited about any of these possibilities, because every time we got excited, it's like, whoa, looks like they got the goods on them this time.
00:29:24.840And then they're trying to get a ban on what they would think would be military-type rifles.
00:29:31.700So, I believe the only thing, if they got their way, the government, the only thing that would be legal, but it would still be highly regulated, would be like a bolt-action rifle for hunting.
00:30:37.100Well, according to HR Drive, Laurel Kelser is writing that there's some biotech conglomerate that's being blamed of using DEI to discriminate.
00:30:50.340And this would be no surprise to any of you that wherever there is DEI, there's massive discrimination against white males because that's how everything works in the real world.
00:31:05.680But I'm just going to say this and see how much trouble I get into.
00:31:10.000Based on what I see online, so this is not like a survey or anything, but based on my observations online, I don't believe, well, I'll say it a different way.
00:31:20.340Most black Americans believe that the thing that happens 100% of the time at companies happens 0% of the time.
00:31:28.400The thing that happens 100% of the time, black Americans think never happens.
00:31:36.220And what I'm talking about is if you have DEI or even whatever was the predecessor to that,
00:31:44.420if you have DEI, what should happen in principle, like in a perfect conceptual world is, wow, we were discriminating so badly that there were all these qualified black and brown and female candidates that were not getting jobs,
00:32:02.380and they really should have because they were just as capable, just as qualified.
00:32:06.320Now, obviously, there are people in every group that are at the top level of qualified and capable.
00:32:15.080So every group has plenty of people that are, but plenty is not enough.
00:32:31.840You could say, for example, all right, not enough Irish are being hired.
00:32:38.200So we're going to create a system where we're really going to encourage you to hire more Irish.
00:32:43.980And we'll check on you, and your pay as a manager will depend on if you get enough Irish.
00:32:50.140And then you go out and you find out everybody's trying to hire the limited quantity of Irish people who have the right skills for your high-tech industry, for example.
00:33:00.160And they would find that, uh-oh, the only way I'm going to meet my goal of getting enough Irish is I'm going to have to lower the bar for how capable they will be before I hire them, right?
00:33:16.520That would be how every human would act in that situation.
00:33:23.700It would be close to every single human would act that way.
00:33:26.440Meaning that the Irish, if you got on an airplane and you saw that the pilot had, you know, red hair and looked kind of Irish, you might say to yourself, oh, crap.
00:33:39.140They may have lowered the standards to get enough Irish.
00:33:42.620Now, if I change the Irish to black, people say, you're racist.
00:34:14.880But they don't seem to understand that the normal, almost guaranteed way that that will go is that the white people in charge will cover their own asses, which is really a criticism of white people.
00:34:28.800Oh, here's the thing that people don't understand.
00:34:33.060When conservatives complain about DEI being racist, they're normally talking about other white people being the racists.
00:34:44.180If you're a black job candidate and you were lucky enough to be favored and you got a job, or even if you weren't favored, you just got the job, you're not to blame for anything.
00:35:00.280All you did was apply for a job and you got offered one and you took it.
00:35:40.380So when I complained about DEI, it's not 100%, but probably 80% are white people that are the villains.
00:35:50.760The villains in the story are the white people because they're the ones saying, oh, I better cover my ass and make it look like I hired diversely.
00:36:00.380All right, we'll see if that gets to be double canceled.
00:36:08.640Do you know about the OCCRP, which I didn't see defined, but what it is is an organization of people in the news business internationally who kind of coordinate and some might say
00:38:53.140But J.B. Pritzker said that he claimed the country is becoming Nazi Germany because ICE is grabbing people off the streets and disappearing them.
00:39:02.480And, let's see, Robin Kelly used Gestapo, Jasmin Crockett compared ICE to slave patrols.

00:43:29.880And Trump has authorized Ukraine, according to Austin's defender on X.
00:43:39.140He's authorized Ukraine to carry out long-range drone and missile strikes against targets inside Russia.
00:43:46.260But some of them will require Pentagon approval.
00:43:49.040So, why would Russia treat it like they're at war with Ukraine if we're providing the missiles and giving them permission to use them deep inside Russia?
00:44:05.980Do you think that Russia will be able to forever resist lobbing a missile into the homeland of the United States?
00:44:12.660I don't think we're completely safe from Russia just making a point, just lobbing some missiles into the U.S., you know, maybe not having the most damage or death, but just saying, all right, here's the deal.
00:44:28.320If you're going to help Ukraine lob missiles into Moscow, we're going to help ourselves lob some missiles into your cities.
00:44:42.820So, I do worry that there's going to be a new level of escalation here that could come to the homeland, but I don't know.
00:44:51.120I do also assume that Trump and company know more than we do about what's up in Russia.
00:44:57.980One possibility is that our military and our government knows, and I don't know this to be true, I'm just speculating, that Russia might be in worse shape than we think.
00:45:10.600And they might be closer to having to fold or give up, maybe for economic reasons.
00:45:17.060Maybe they don't want to lose their oil business.
00:45:20.120Maybe they know that if we totally unleash Ukraine with better weapons, they're in trouble.
00:45:27.060So, maybe Trump knows something we don't, that Russia might be closer to something like a deal or a surrender.
00:46:58.680And I don't think that they're super backing them in everything they do.
00:47:03.700So, if Israel's not, you know, completely backing them, and the United States is not completely backing them, and they're not helping anybody, because I don't think they are, I don't know.
00:47:16.140I don't know if they'll last another year.
00:49:43.260So Israel would have to deal with the repercussions of that forever.
00:49:47.700And that would be pretty big repercussions.
00:49:49.860So they might not even be able to survive it if they try to just take Gaza and absorb it and kick out all the Palestinians that were in Gaza.
00:50:22.360I don't see any chance it could happen.
00:50:24.240Well, the UN sanctions on Iran have snapped back into place because they were unable to agree on terms for ongoing inspections of their nuclear facilities.
00:50:36.180Are you surprised that Iran did not give the West everything it wanted in inspections?
00:52:35.360I'm going to keep it a little bit short.
00:52:36.740I'll remind you again, if you haven't seen it, I did a podcast last night with Dr. Drew and Greg Goffeld, who were nice enough to stop by my place yesterday.
00:52:49.100So we sat in my kitchen and did a podcast, which, according to the comments, people really, really liked.
00:52:56.540And I got to tell you that one of the many cool things about that experience is that the three of us are so experienced at talking in public that we can just turn on the cameras and do what turned out to be 83 minutes of content without any preparation.
00:53:18.680Now, I have to admit, there aren't too many people who could do, you know, 83 minutes of apparently content that people really enjoyed based on the comments.
00:53:32.820But we've all been doing it for a long time.
00:53:35.300So it went better than I could have hoped, actually.
00:53:39.960So if you want to see what my kitchen looks like, from one angle anyway, you can watch that.
00:53:46.500So you can find that on YouTube or on X or on Locals or on Rumble.
00:54:02.280A lot of people are saying we should do it on a regular basis, but there's one thing that the three of us have in common, is that we each have about four jobs apiece.
