Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 3020 CWSA 11⧸16⧸25

00:00:00.880 Oh, a recruiter has contacted me.

00:00:04.120 Alicia wants to recruit me to work with Accenture.

00:00:07.720 Am I still open to work?

00:00:10.040 No, I'm not available to work for you.

00:00:13.320 But thanks for asking.

00:00:15.680 Let me make sure that we've got everything we want working here.

00:00:21.080 Then we'll have some fun.

00:00:23.240 Yep, we've got a good cat picture.

00:00:24.920 We've got a show.

00:00:26.840 We're live streaming.

00:00:28.400 Oh, my goodness, it's such a good day.

00:00:32.240 I hope you're having a great day.

00:00:35.040 You ready for this?

00:00:36.640 All the lazy podcasters are sleeping in and watching me.

00:00:43.320 Good morning, everybody, and welcome

00:00:44.900 to the highlight of human civilization

00:00:47.000 that's called Coffee with Scott Adamson.

00:00:49.640 You've never had a better time, but if you'd

00:00:52.520 like to take a chance on elevating your experience up

00:00:56.400 to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny,

00:01:00.240 shiny human brains.

00:01:02.760 All you need for that would be a cup or a mug or a glass, a tanker,

00:01:08.840 chalice, a steiner, canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:01:12.080 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:13.440 I like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.

00:01:17.280 The dopamine, the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:01:19.520 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens.

00:01:23.360 That's right.

00:01:24.240 Now.

00:01:30.080 Extraordinary.

00:01:31.280 Oh, the lengths we go through for the perfect sip.

00:01:35.840 But it works every time.

00:01:38.280 So I'll give you an update.

00:01:40.760 Probably I'll give the same update a few times

00:01:43.160 until everybody hears it.

00:01:45.160 I'm no longer personally drawing the Dilbert comic strip

00:01:49.320 because both my hands are blown out now.

00:01:51.640 My right hand is a focal dystonian.

00:01:53.240 My left hand is semi-paralyzed with whatever cancer problem

00:01:58.040 I'm having at the moment.

00:01:59.480 Maybe it gets better.

00:02:01.760 Probably not.

00:02:03.120 I don't know.

00:02:04.240 We'll see.

00:02:05.240 But as of yesterday, Dilbert is being drawn by.

00:02:10.520 It's still written by me, so it's 100% written by me.

00:02:16.080 But my art director will be doing all of the drawing

00:02:20.440 instead of just finishing the art.

00:02:22.400 She is capable of doing it all.

00:02:25.040 And now she is.

00:02:26.000 And yes, I did give her a raise. 1.00

00:02:29.440 I know.

00:02:30.440 I know you're wondering.

00:02:31.640 But all right.

00:02:34.400 Turns out that according to medicine,

00:02:37.600 I guess that's some kind of publication,

00:02:40.600 coffee consumption lowers your risk of rotator cuff injury.

00:02:45.320 Hmm.

00:02:46.560 So if you're drinking coffee,

00:02:48.920 you have less chance of a rotator cuff injury.

00:02:52.960 Now, is all of their medical advice just for Jeffrey Toobin or just this one?

00:03:01.400 All right, I'll just leave that there for you.

00:03:03.400 You can complete the complete the joke.

00:03:06.400 What the, what the, oh my God, there's something on my desk.

00:03:12.840 What is this?

00:03:14.840 Oh my God.

00:03:15.840 Oh, it's the Dilbert calendar for 2026.

00:03:19.000 The best thing you could ever have on your desk.

00:03:20.840 That's right.

00:03:21.840 That's right.

00:03:22.400 It's available now.

00:03:23.600 You could go to Amazon and buy it right now.

00:03:28.600 It's got comics on the front.

00:03:30.000 It's got comics on the back.

00:03:31.600 It's got comics on the box.

00:03:34.440 How many more comics do you need people?

00:03:37.400 That's right.

00:03:38.080 Only on Amazon,

00:03:39.280 America.

00:03:40.120 It's got to be the U S version of Amazon.

00:03:42.520 Get it.

00:03:42.960 Now they are approximately,

00:03:46.480 and I swear I'm not making this up.

00:03:48.800 They're approximately one third sold out in November.

00:03:53.560 So if you know anything about calendars,

00:03:56.120 if your calendar is one third sold out at the first half of November,

00:04:02.560 there will be some question whether there'll be enough of them by mid December.

00:04:07.320 So I would go fast if I were you.

00:04:10.640 Well,

00:04:11.200 I love when Trump talks about his windmills and about climate change being a hoax.

00:04:16.080 Do you remember how dumb we thought?

00:04:19.640 No,

00:04:20.280 how dumb the Democrats believed Trump was because he thought that climate change

00:04:25.860 was a hoax.

00:04:27.580 That one thing besides the,

00:04:29.620 the fine people hoax,

00:04:31.260 but that one thing was really the most damaging thing outside of the,

00:04:37.020 you know,

00:04:37.240 the other hoaxes,

00:04:37.980 I guess.

00:04:40.120 But now when he says that,

00:04:42.380 it almost doesn't make news.

00:04:44.680 I mean,

00:04:45.040 he's the president,

00:04:46.100 so they still report it,

00:04:47.680 but wouldn't that be a big deal if some other president said that climate

00:04:51.980 change was a hoax,

00:04:53.720 but now he just says it and people just go,

00:04:58.300 all right,

00:04:58.840 next question.

00:05:00.840 I guess it's a hoax according to you.

00:05:03.720 All right.

00:05:04.120 So Trump has successfully,

00:05:07.080 and I can't even imagine he got to this point,

00:05:09.340 but it's pretty impressive.

00:05:10.780 He's gotten to the point where he beat down the public and he wore people out

00:05:15.580 until he can simply say it's a hoax.

00:05:18.920 Maybe they push back a little bit,

00:05:21.080 you know,

00:05:21.320 get some clarification,

00:05:22.960 but now that's our,

00:05:25.740 that's our reality.

00:05:27.300 Our reality is our president thinks it's a hoax and he's got some evidence to

00:05:32.800 back his opinion.

00:05:33.580 And did you ever think we'd get to this point?

00:05:37.900 Yeah.

00:05:38.660 Cause I was on the sort of on the hoax page the whole time.

00:05:42.960 Although I don't think I used that word early on.

00:05:46.760 Definitely use it now.

00:05:49.220 Do you remember,

00:05:50.400 I don't know how old some of you are,

00:05:52.240 but do you remember when we used to use science to figure out what was true and

00:05:58.320 what wasn't true?

00:06:00.100 Is anybody old enough to remember that?

00:06:01.800 If we didn't know if,

00:06:04.220 you know,

00:06:04.380 let's say climate change was a problem or not a problem,

00:06:07.600 just to pick one example,

00:06:09.000 what we would do is we would rely on science because the one thing we knew for

00:06:15.180 sure is that if you're trying to figure out what's real and what's not real,

00:06:20.120 science is really the only way to go.

00:06:22.200 Am I right?

00:06:24.420 And then somewhere,

00:06:26.580 somewhere during one of the Trump terms,

00:06:29.880 you could pick which one you like.

00:06:32.740 Science became so discredited that the thought of using science to figure out

00:06:38.480 what's true seems a little dumb now,

00:06:41.660 doesn't it?

00:06:43.460 It doesn't just seem like sometimes it doesn't work.

00:06:46.960 Now it actually seems dumb because if you were to just do the math of how often

00:06:53.680 science is operating in the pursuit of taking your money and screwing you and giving somebody else power,

00:07:01.060 that's way more than the number of times science tells you the truth.

00:07:05.980 Isn't it?

00:07:06.680 Am I wrong about that?

00:07:09.360 Am I,

00:07:09.820 I mean,

00:07:10.100 it's subjective,

00:07:10.820 of course.

00:07:11.360 My subjective impression is that science is in 2025,

00:07:17.480 science is usually used to mislead,

00:07:20.900 to market,

00:07:22.540 to sell,

00:07:23.720 to get elected,

00:07:24.900 to scare somebody.

00:07:26.000 But how often is it used to find out reality?

00:07:31.320 Now and then.

00:07:32.940 But it's not really the right tool,

00:07:34.460 is it?

00:07:35.160 It's not even the right tool for figuring out reality.

00:07:38.240 Well,

00:07:38.820 it should be,

00:07:39.560 but the way we use it,

00:07:41.600 we abuse it so.

00:07:45.800 There's a clip of Eric Swalwell

00:07:47.960 demanding that Cash Patel

00:07:50.980 promise that he won't be investigating.

00:07:54.140 I guess there are about 60 people in Congress that Cash might want to investigate.

00:07:58.920 And he said,

00:07:59.340 so Swalwell says in this hearing,

00:08:03.680 will you recuse yourself from investigating the 60 individuals,

00:08:07.220 including myself,

00:08:09.120 that you identified as government gangsters?

00:08:12.540 And Cash Patel says,

00:08:14.320 no.

00:08:17.660 I'm starting to really like the Cash Patel fast answers.

00:08:25.200 Will you do this with these 60 people?

00:08:28.240 No.

00:08:29.600 Moving on.

00:08:31.440 Now,

00:08:32.340 does it seem weird to you that all of these people got caught with mortgage fraud?

00:08:36.240 Allegedly.

00:08:38.180 So allegedly,

00:08:39.420 Letitia James,

00:08:40.500 Adam Schiff,

00:08:41.620 and now Eric Swalwell.

00:08:43.760 What are the odds they would all be involved in a similar kind of mortgage fraud?

00:08:49.300 Is there some kind of class you take when you become a Democrat?

00:08:53.760 You're like,

00:08:54.200 okay,

00:08:54.520 I'm registering as a Democrat.

00:08:56.540 All right.

00:08:56.940 Here's your,

00:08:57.580 here's your documentation.

00:08:59.720 It'll teach you how to,

00:09:01.520 you know,

00:09:01.940 cheat on your taxes.

00:09:03.320 Maybe your insurance,

00:09:06.380 but definitely on your mortgages.

00:09:08.360 Definitely on the mortgages.

00:09:10.440 So,

00:09:11.320 Eric Swalwell,

00:09:13.320 he's doing great.

00:09:14.820 He's my representative,

00:09:15.960 in case you wondered.

00:09:16.480 So he's just doing great.

00:09:21.540 So there's a,

00:09:22.700 allegedly,

00:09:23.840 a new Epstein bombshell,

00:09:26.980 they're calling it.

00:09:28.900 Is,

00:09:29.380 are the Epstein bombshells ever bombshells?

00:09:32.540 It doesn't feel like it,

00:09:33.940 does it?

00:09:34.800 I feel like every day or two,

00:09:36.980 there's an Epstein bombshell

00:09:38.720 that will tell us what we already knew.

00:09:41.240 All right.

00:09:43.020 What's this one?

00:09:44.660 Well,

00:09:45.040 apparently,

00:09:45.660 uh,

00:09:45.860 Glenn Maxwell's lawyer,

00:09:47.260 who's accusing representative Jamie Raskin,

00:09:51.000 who you know,

00:09:51.760 as one of the,

00:09:52.660 quote,

00:09:53.480 designated liars.

00:09:55.240 So,

00:09:55.880 he's one of the ones that I always say,

00:09:57.720 if they have a really big lie to tell,

00:10:00.100 you know,

00:10:00.280 not a normal size one,

00:10:01.880 they have a really big one to tell,

00:10:04.080 they bring out the designated liars.

00:10:06.360 Swalwell,

00:10:07.160 Schiff,

00:10:08.300 apparently,

00:10:08.860 Letitia James and Raskin.

00:10:11.800 But,

00:10:12.360 uh,

00:10:12.580 apparently he was involved in some kind of,

00:10:15.820 uh,

00:10:16.820 you know,

00:10:17.220 leaked emails.

00:10:18.120 I talked about this yesterday.

00:10:19.700 And,

00:10:20.300 uh,

00:10:22.020 the article I read about it says,

00:10:24.680 big names are now officially in the crosshairs.

00:10:28.320 Do you believe that?

00:10:30.280 Do you believe we've finally got to the point

00:10:33.320 where the big names are in trouble?

00:10:36.180 And any minute now,

00:10:37.820 they're going to be named.

00:10:39.520 And handcuffed and taken off to jail.

00:10:42.760 None of that's going to happen.

00:10:45.080 Is it?

00:10:46.260 I don't expect anything to happen.

00:10:49.000 I mean,

00:10:49.220 that's what we're used to.

00:10:50.260 We've,

00:10:50.480 we've been trained to expect nothing.

00:10:53.800 So,

00:10:54.800 I expect nothing.

00:10:56.640 I'd like to be surprised.

00:10:59.540 As you know,

00:11:00.440 the folks on the right,

00:11:02.700 the political right,

00:11:03.680 the MAGA,

00:11:04.960 and Maha,

00:11:05.900 and people like that,

00:11:06.760 they've got a little bit of a,

00:11:08.900 I don't know what to call it,

00:11:09.820 drama.

00:11:11.740 It's more like other people are creating the drama,

00:11:14.560 but I'm talking about,

00:11:15.680 uh,

00:11:16.340 Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massey and Tucker Carlson,

00:11:21.620 et cetera.

00:11:22.220 And I bring it up because Matt Gaetz had an interesting post today.

00:11:27.140 Matt Gaetz said,

00:11:27.940 I love Trump,

00:11:29.500 MTG,

00:11:30.320 Massey,

00:11:30.700 Tucker,

00:11:30.920 and even,

00:11:32.260 uh,

00:11:32.660 and even those I feel are too accommodating to the worst decisions made by

00:11:37.220 Israel's government.

00:11:38.440 Now this is Matt Gaetz.

00:11:40.160 Um,

00:11:41.400 he says,

00:11:42.080 I won't be baited into attacking friends and leaders in our movement because

00:11:46.120 some people disagree on some things.

00:11:48.960 Not only do I completely agree with Matt Gaetz on his philosophy,

00:11:54.640 which is,

00:11:55.580 you can't tell me,

00:11:56.320 you can't tell me who to like.

00:11:58.960 You can't tell me who to talk to.

00:12:01.560 You can't tell me what to think when I talk to him.

00:12:05.420 That's not on the table.

00:12:07.360 That is just not on the table.

00:12:09.360 You know,

00:12:09.540 you do you,

00:12:10.340 I do me,

00:12:11.420 but no,

00:12:12.040 you don't tell me who to like.

00:12:14.980 That's,

00:12:15.500 that's not one of the options.

00:12:16.940 Um,

00:12:18.060 and I'm going to add Matt Gaetz to my list.

00:12:20.220 So I would have said the same about MTG and Trump and Massey and Tucker,

00:12:24.280 but I'll throw Matt Gaetz on there.

00:12:25.980 You don't get to tell me if I can talk to Matt Gaetz.

00:12:29.400 Right?

00:12:30.160 That's not up to you.

00:12:31.160 That's just up to me.

00:12:33.900 All right.

00:12:34.920 Um,

00:12:36.640 so I was watching,

00:12:37.880 uh,

00:12:39.060 I don't know his first name,

00:12:40.460 but one of the Kennedy cousins Schlossberg is running for some office and

00:12:45.600 part of his running for office.

00:12:46.940 is he's throwing his,

00:12:48.660 is it his cousin or his uncle,

00:12:50.880 whatever RFK junior is to him,

00:12:53.120 throwing RFK junior under the bus for what Schlossberg,

00:12:58.260 I think would consider some non-scientific opinions,

00:13:02.520 non-scientific.

00:13:04.180 So I saw Libby Evans, 1.00

00:13:06.920 um,

00:13:07.660 was,

00:13:08.520 I think the host for this,

00:13:10.840 or was she writing about it for a post-millennial?

00:13:13.540 Anyway,

00:13:14.340 this is what,

00:13:15.260 uh,

00:13:15.520 Schlossberg said,

00:13:16.960 quote,

00:13:17.320 uh,

00:13:18.260 Trump represents a threat unlike any other,

00:13:21.920 unquote,

00:13:22.780 and that,

00:13:23.340 that necessitates,

00:13:24.600 quote,

00:13:25.220 new and creative ways of fighting back.

00:13:28.200 Oh no,

00:13:29.500 is he another one of these fighting back people?

00:13:32.420 I don't have any policies,

00:13:34.600 but if I say the word fight often enough,

00:13:37.620 you might go away with the impression that I'm a fighter.

00:13:41.260 So we're going to fight,

00:13:42.100 fight,

00:13:42.360 fight,

00:13:42.960 fight,

00:13:43.380 fight,

00:13:43.640 fight,

00:13:43.880 fight,

00:13:44.040 fight.

00:13:44.320 Did anybody,

00:13:45.820 anybody change their opinion based on how many times I use the word fight?

00:13:49.820 Not enough.

00:13:50.900 Fight,

00:13:51.180 fight,

00:13:51.460 fight,

00:13:52.240 fight,

00:13:52.600 fight,

00:13:52.860 fight.

00:13:53.220 Now,

00:13:53.860 anything?

00:13:55.180 How many times do I have to say fight before you change your opinion of my opinion?

00:13:59.580 Fight,

00:13:59.860 fight,

00:14:00.120 fight,

00:14:00.640 fight,

00:14:00.860 fight,

00:14:01.140 fight.

00:14:01.700 I think,

00:14:02.120 I think that's enough.

00:14:03.300 Yeah.

00:14:04.660 Anyway,

00:14:05.500 um,

00:14:06.700 here's,

00:14:07.740 uh,

00:14:08.180 when asked if,

00:14:09.280 uh,

00:14:09.500 Trump is a fascist,

00:14:11.000 because of course you have to ask that question.

00:14:13.540 Um,

00:14:16.620 Schlossberg said that,

00:14:18.960 uh,

00:14:19.260 there are historical analogs,

00:14:21.460 historical analogs.

00:14:24.560 In other words,

00:14:25.940 yeah,

00:14:26.640 he's,

00:14:26.960 he's saying that Trump is a fascist.

00:14:29.320 Now,

00:14:30.460 similar to my earlier conversation where I said that,

00:14:33.620 uh,

00:14:34.900 when Trump talks about windmills and climate change being a hoax,

00:14:39.320 it sounded crazy when he first said it,

00:14:42.040 you know,

00:14:42.660 a decade ago.

00:14:44.000 And now it doesn't.

00:14:46.000 Now it sounds,

00:14:47.520 hmm,

00:14:48.300 yeah,

00:14:49.180 it just sounds like that's an opinion and probably a correct one,

00:14:53.220 in my opinion.

00:14:54.560 But fascist seems like it's also aged out.

00:15:00.940 Does anybody have that feeling yet?

00:15:03.240 Well,

00:15:03.720 it used to be that if I saw a Democrat calling Trump a fascist,

00:15:07.500 I would say to myself,

00:15:09.340 Oh,

00:15:10.220 here's something I might want to address.

00:15:13.080 Maybe,

00:15:13.560 maybe I need to point out all the ways in which he's not a fascist.

00:15:18.280 Maybe I need to dig into the definition of a fascist,

00:15:21.200 make sure this fits.

00:15:22.220 But now when I hear some new politician called Trump a fascist,

00:15:28.380 do you know what my first impression is?

00:15:31.060 Oh,

00:15:31.300 he's a fucking idiot. 0.99

00:15:32.920 And that's it.

00:15:34.600 I don't think I need to defend Trump.

00:15:37.300 I don't think I need to introduce a new definition.

00:15:40.620 I don't think I need to,

00:15:41.720 you know,

00:15:42.740 host a debate.

00:15:44.280 I don't think I need to send a post.

00:15:46.040 I just look at him and go,

00:15:48.400 Oh,

00:15:48.620 you poor bastard.

00:15:50.360 You poor bastard.

00:15:51.580 You're a fucking idiot.

00:15:53.880 Now,

00:15:54.240 does anybody have that same feeling where you've gone from?

00:15:57.900 I must argue against this to why would you even argue that?

00:16:02.020 Who would even argue that?

00:16:03.700 It's so stupid.

00:16:05.480 It's literally just stupid.

00:16:07.400 There's no other thing to say about it.

00:16:09.760 What's the second thing you're going to say about it?

00:16:12.100 Well,

00:16:12.500 stupid. 0.90

00:16:13.460 No,

00:16:13.620 that was the first thing you said.

00:16:14.760 What would be the second thing you would say about it?

00:16:18.960 Stupid?

00:16:20.060 How about stupid?

00:16:21.720 There's nothing else to say.

00:16:23.460 It's just fucking stupid.

00:16:25.660 All right,

00:16:25.960 Schlossberg.

00:16:26.740 Good luck.

00:16:29.760 Anyway,

00:16:32.460 now,

00:16:33.180 and this is just mind blowing.

00:16:34.580 This is another story,

00:16:36.240 but Adam Schiff was on some event where he was talking,

00:16:40.000 and this is Adam Schiff.

00:16:41.400 If you're following politics enough to know who Adam Schiff even is,

00:16:46.920 this will blow your mind.

00:16:48.980 I'm not making this up.

00:16:50.460 I don't think it's AI.

00:16:52.040 Pretty sure.

00:16:53.640 But this is a real thing that happened recently.

00:16:56.720 So Schiff said,

00:16:57.600 in public,

00:16:58.380 he said this,

00:16:58.980 we have to get past the quote,

00:17:01.920 ruinous idea of making presidents unsuccessful because of politics.

00:17:07.220 What?

00:17:08.180 And quote,

00:17:09.060 stop viewing each other as our enemy.

00:17:12.900 Wait a minute.

00:17:14.580 That is Adam Schiff.

00:17:16.440 The guy who's trying to ruin a presidency.

00:17:20.320 What?

00:17:21.540 And the only way he can say this in public.

00:17:26.120 Is because he's confident that people don't know what he said 10 minutes ago.

00:17:30.720 Or yesterday.

00:17:32.360 Or one minute ago.

00:17:34.040 Or ever.

00:17:35.400 Or ever.

00:17:36.960 The only way he can say that in public.

00:17:39.620 Is because he knows that nobody's going to look it up.

00:17:43.300 Nobody's going to compare it to what he did.

00:17:44.880 But of course,

00:17:46.260 you know,

00:17:46.520 if you're watching X and you have,

00:17:48.980 if you follow any accounts on the right,

00:17:51.520 you know,

00:17:52.260 there's going to be a compilation clip of him doing whatever it is he says you

00:17:56.580 shouldn't do.

00:17:57.720 Now I haven't seen it yet,

00:17:59.540 but you know it's coming.

00:18:01.080 Because the right is really good at that now.

00:18:04.340 Western Lensman,

00:18:05.480 who is a really good account for you to follow,

00:18:07.980 had a number of good stories today.

00:18:10.100 So I will just recommend them.

00:18:12.300 It's two words.

00:18:13.120 Western Lensman.

00:18:15.840 Just a good follow.

00:18:17.620 Has about as many followers as I have.

00:18:21.700 So it's grown organically because it does a good job.

00:18:25.500 Whoever runs it.

00:18:28.840 Scott Galloway.

00:18:30.160 You know Scott Galloway?

00:18:31.420 You've seen him.

00:18:32.740 Famous author.

00:18:34.600 Entrepreneur.

00:18:36.020 I sometimes refer to myself as the poor man's Scott Galloway.

00:18:41.060 Literally the poor man's,

00:18:42.340 because he's done really well financially.

00:18:47.660 But he was on Bill Maher's show.

00:18:51.180 He had some alarming stats.

00:18:53.840 45% of men

00:18:55.080 from the ages of 18 to 24

00:18:58.260 have never asked a woman out in person.

00:19:01.120 45% of men have never asked a woman out in person.

00:19:07.760 Maybe that's not as bad as it sounds.

00:19:10.680 Is that as bad as it sounds?

00:19:12.600 Because if you're asking them out not in person,

00:19:16.080 but they say yes,

00:19:18.340 don't you end up in the same place?

00:19:19.880 If you say,

00:19:22.660 hey, read my text.

00:19:25.040 You know, let's go to the movies tonight.

00:19:27.000 It's kind of the same.

00:19:28.740 Now, I get that someone who learns how to approach somebody

00:19:32.120 is going to be better off in life

00:19:33.460 than someone who's afraid of approaching someone.

00:19:36.020 I get that.

00:19:37.260 But is it that much of a difference?

00:19:39.060 To me, it just seems like younger people 0.98

00:19:41.480 have different tools.

00:19:43.540 So the tools they use are online

00:19:45.500 because that's the tools they have.

00:19:47.960 I don't know how big a problem that is.

00:19:50.340 But certainly we're losing the ability to approach people.

00:19:54.120 And that might have a...

00:19:55.340 Well, even that might make no difference in the long run.

00:19:58.900 Because the whole process of selling

00:20:01.680 is going to fall to AI, won't it?

00:20:04.400 So if your AI is doing all this selling

00:20:08.260 for, let's say, non-dating reasons,

00:20:11.680 do you even need to learn that skill?

00:20:14.300 It might be a useless skill.

00:20:16.420 It's so unpredictable

00:20:17.520 what's going to happen in two to five years.

00:20:19.940 So unpredictable.

00:20:21.340 And also, Scott Galloway says,

00:20:22.900 63% of men under the age of 30

00:20:25.540 are not even pursuing a relationship.

00:20:30.660 Wait, what?

00:20:31.500 Nearly two-thirds of men under the age of 30

00:20:35.040 are not even trying?

00:20:37.920 Not even trying?

00:20:39.720 Well, here I would add some context again.

00:20:43.340 In my day, you know, when I was a youngster,

00:20:47.520 everybody sort of assumed

00:20:49.220 that their path would involve,

00:20:52.080 you know, some romantic family kind of a thing.

00:20:56.160 So we were all kind of oriented

00:20:58.760 toward making that happen.

00:20:59.940 But suppose it's 2025

00:21:03.600 and all you need to do

00:21:06.940 is have access or contact

00:21:09.220 with a lot of people.

00:21:11.120 And sooner or later,

00:21:12.120 you'll like one,

00:21:12.860 they'll like you back.

00:21:14.220 You'll be in good shape.

00:21:15.540 So when you say pursuing a relationship,

00:21:19.480 my old guy question is this,

00:21:22.320 if there's anybody young enough

00:21:23.700 to answer the question,

00:21:25.160 do young people pursue 0.73

00:21:26.680 or do they just exist?

00:21:30.100 This is a serious question, by the way.

00:21:31.620 I don't know the answer.

00:21:32.700 Do young people pursue relationships 1.00

00:21:34.700 as much as they used to

00:21:36.500 or do they just say,

00:21:38.260 no, I'm going to do this thing.

00:21:39.940 I'll probably be some people.

00:21:41.500 Some of the people I meet

00:21:42.580 might turn into something.

00:21:44.280 But is that pursuing a relationship

00:21:45.920 if you're just putting yourself

00:21:47.680 in a situation?

00:21:48.500 I don't know.

00:21:51.440 I feel like just the way

00:21:52.640 we do things is different.

00:21:54.380 So comparing it to the old days

00:21:55.840 might not be as valid

00:21:57.820 as it used to be.

00:21:58.600 I would point out, however,

00:22:03.220 that my books will solve

00:22:05.720 most of these problems.

00:22:09.060 Those of you who have read my books

00:22:10.940 in the comments,

00:22:12.740 can you confirm for me

00:22:14.360 so that the other people can see it?

00:22:17.000 Confirm for me

00:22:17.880 that if you had read my books,

00:22:19.580 Reframe Your Brain

00:22:20.740 or Win Bigly

00:22:23.380 or How to Win at Almost Everything

00:22:25.940 and Still,

00:22:26.660 How to Fail at Almost Everything

00:22:27.980 and Still, Win Big.

00:22:28.960 If you had read any of those three books,

00:22:32.680 would you not be socially more adept

00:22:35.440 and more successful?

00:22:37.500 You would.

00:22:38.320 Yeah, they're written for that purpose.

00:22:40.160 They're designed to,

00:22:42.260 they're actually designed

00:22:43.260 to fill the gap

00:22:44.040 that Scott Galloway is talking about,

00:22:46.000 which is you can fill any gap,

00:22:48.260 not a specific gap,

00:22:49.920 but any gap.

00:22:50.940 You can learn how to,

00:22:51.960 learn how to talk to somebody,

00:22:54.720 learn how to get past embarrassment,

00:22:56.420 learn how to enter a room

00:22:58.560 and own it.

00:22:59.980 Those are pretty valuable skills.

00:23:02.280 So if you think

00:23:03.000 there's no way to learn it

00:23:04.180 because there's something

00:23:05.240 about the world that changed,

00:23:06.740 not really.

00:23:08.040 There's just three books

00:23:09.020 you can read.

00:23:10.700 Reframe Your Brain,

00:23:12.940 Win Bigly,

00:23:13.840 and How to Fill at Almost Everything

00:23:16.420 and Still, Win Big.

00:23:17.600 They will fix you.

00:23:19.060 All right,

00:23:19.280 so this leads me

00:23:20.100 to my most fun story

00:23:22.160 of the day.

00:23:23.740 How many of you know

00:23:25.140 who billionaire venture capitalist

00:23:26.920 Bill Ackerman is?

00:23:29.860 Does that name ring the bell?

00:23:31.720 So I wouldn't,

00:23:32.840 I wouldn't call him

00:23:33.900 a conservative

00:23:34.860 or a Republican,

00:23:36.160 but he certainly went

00:23:37.820 from deep Democrat

00:23:39.140 to,

00:23:40.500 hmm,

00:23:41.300 maybe I should rethink

00:23:42.480 this whole thing.

00:23:43.840 I think I'd call him

00:23:45.500 an independent,

00:23:46.120 but I don't want to,

00:23:48.140 you know,

00:23:48.440 I don't want to be the one

00:23:49.240 who labels him.

00:23:51.140 So apparently he had,

00:23:52.620 he had a suggestion

00:23:54.740 for how to meet

00:23:55.600 a young woman

00:23:56.320 and this is based

00:23:58.060 on his dating experience.

00:24:00.500 All right?

00:24:01.640 Now,

00:24:02.160 here's what you need

00:24:02.880 to know about Bill Ackman.

00:24:04.900 If Grok is not lying to me,

00:24:07.720 he's six foot three.

00:24:10.160 He has perfect hair

00:24:11.700 and he has almost

00:24:14.260 model-like

00:24:15.340 male good looks.

00:24:18.040 Went to Harvard,

00:24:20.120 is a billionaire

00:24:21.180 and he's going to teach you,

00:24:24.760 he's going to teach you

00:24:30.580 how to pick up women. 0.87

00:24:33.140 And here's,

00:24:34.160 here's what he teaches you

00:24:36.960 because he thinks

00:24:37.680 it's about the line

00:24:38.600 that you use.

00:24:39.640 So not entirely that.

00:24:41.980 You know,

00:24:42.180 it's also the,

00:24:43.360 having the guts

00:24:44.080 to go up to somebody.

00:24:45.460 That would be

00:24:45.920 at least half of it.

00:24:47.120 But he says,

00:24:48.260 use this question.

00:24:49.640 He says,

00:24:50.040 I would ask,

00:24:51.220 quote,

00:24:51.620 may I meet you

00:24:52.800 before engaging further?

00:24:55.160 I almost never got a no.

00:24:59.260 All right.

00:25:00.360 Let's get back

00:25:01.180 to the real world.

00:25:03.480 How many of you

00:25:04.560 live in the real world?

00:25:06.540 Anybody?

00:25:07.720 Most of you.

00:25:08.460 Most of you.

00:25:09.020 Most of you live

00:25:09.900 in the actual reality.

00:25:11.860 In your experience,

00:25:13.780 how many handsome

00:25:15.020 six foot three billionaires

00:25:17.780 with perfect hair

00:25:18.840 get turned down

00:25:21.380 when they introduce themselves

00:25:23.220 in a public place?

00:25:25.160 Has that ever happened?

00:25:26.900 In the history of,

00:25:28.180 in the history of male

00:25:29.640 and female interaction, 1.00

00:25:31.060 has that ever happened?

00:25:32.100 So I don't know

00:25:36.600 if Bill Ackman

00:25:37.320 is not aware

00:25:38.560 of his own,

00:25:40.700 you know,

00:25:40.980 his own situation.

00:25:42.260 Because sometimes

00:25:42.840 we're not aware

00:25:43.480 of ourselves, right?

00:25:44.700 You know,

00:25:44.940 it's easier to see

00:25:46.240 somebody else

00:25:46.840 than it is to see yourself.

00:25:48.460 But that's kind of funny.

00:25:50.760 Now,

00:25:51.220 I would go further

00:25:52.040 and say that

00:25:52.860 may I meet you

00:25:54.060 might be one of the worst

00:25:55.500 pickup lines

00:25:56.220 I've ever heard.

00:25:57.460 And indeed,

00:25:57.980 the reason I saw it at all

00:25:59.340 is that there was

00:26:00.520 some young man

00:26:01.260 who had read this advice

00:26:02.920 and he tried it out

00:26:06.280 at a bar.

00:26:07.700 Now,

00:26:08.040 he didn't tell us

00:26:08.780 what he looks like,

00:26:10.180 but I'm just going to guess.

00:26:12.100 Probably not six foot three

00:26:13.680 with perfect hair

00:26:14.560 and a billion dollars

00:26:15.440 and handsome.

00:26:17.400 Probably not.

00:26:18.720 Probably not.

00:26:19.940 Anyway,

00:26:20.420 he not only got turned down

00:26:21.900 when he used that line,

00:26:23.180 he got mocked mercilessly

00:26:25.000 and the women 1.00

00:26:26.580 that were with

00:26:27.220 the one he targeted

00:26:28.160 for his approach.

00:26:30.300 They all just like

00:26:31.300 laughed until they cried

00:26:32.700 at him

00:26:33.940 while standing

00:26:34.720 right in front of him.

00:26:37.000 Now,

00:26:38.680 you see the problem?

00:26:42.320 All right,

00:26:42.580 let me tell you

00:26:43.100 what's wrong

00:26:43.520 with this line.

00:26:44.940 May I meet you

00:26:45.960 will work for

00:26:47.520 every six foot three

00:26:49.580 billionaire

00:26:50.480 with good hair.

00:26:52.780 It'll work for all of them.

00:26:54.360 Why?

00:26:55.480 Because the woman 0.99

00:26:56.020 doesn't care what you say.

00:26:57.060 if you have

00:26:58.540 all that other stuff

00:26:59.560 working for you,

00:27:00.920 you know,

00:27:01.360 plus he's an interested guy.

00:27:02.960 I mean,

00:27:03.100 he has the whole package,

00:27:03.940 right?

00:27:04.620 So,

00:27:05.000 so there shouldn't be

00:27:06.220 any surprise

00:27:07.080 that no matter

00:27:07.840 what he says,

00:27:08.840 it works.

00:27:10.620 But here's what's wrong

00:27:11.820 with what he says.

00:27:13.860 He's asking

00:27:14.720 for permission.

00:27:18.920 How many of you

00:27:20.640 ladies got the ick 1.00

00:27:21.940 when you heard

00:27:23.300 that he asked

00:27:24.000 for permission

00:27:25.080 to meet you?

00:27:26.800 It's not permission

00:27:27.860 to go to your house.

00:27:29.660 It's not permission

00:27:30.620 to,

00:27:31.180 I don't know,

00:27:32.020 hug you.

00:27:33.120 It's not permission

00:27:34.040 to rifle through your purse.

00:27:36.600 It's permission

00:27:37.440 to simply say

00:27:39.540 who you are

00:27:40.260 and ask

00:27:40.760 who the other person is.

00:27:42.880 That is so ick.

00:27:44.780 Am I wrong?

00:27:46.080 Ladies, 1.00

00:27:46.780 back me up.

00:27:49.180 Back me up.

00:27:50.520 Now,

00:27:50.960 but,

00:27:51.580 so while I say

00:27:52.700 it's ick

00:27:53.240 and weak,

00:27:55.220 wouldn't it be

00:27:56.140 a lot stronger

00:27:56.780 to just say,

00:27:58.000 hi,

00:27:58.660 I'm Bill Ackman.

00:28:00.240 How would that not work?

00:28:03.160 Hi,

00:28:03.600 my name's Bill.

00:28:05.060 That would work

00:28:05.660 every time.

00:28:07.280 That would work

00:28:08.120 100% of the time.

00:28:10.200 Anyway,

00:28:10.920 so my advice is

00:28:12.180 just go introduce yourself

00:28:15.220 if you're that handsome.

00:28:17.060 It'll all work out.

00:28:17.980 All right.

00:28:23.740 May I meet you?

00:28:27.520 Robot surgeons,

00:28:28.620 we talked about that.

00:28:29.800 We don't need to talk

00:28:30.520 about robot surgeons anymore.

00:28:34.280 Dershowitz is fun

00:28:35.880 to check in with

00:28:36.720 every now and then

00:28:37.400 when there's a legal story.

00:28:39.540 And this Epstein thing

00:28:41.040 just never goes away.

00:28:43.500 Dershowitz was Epstein's lawyer

00:28:45.860 at one point

00:28:46.660 in the saga.

00:28:48.300 And Epstein points out

00:28:49.820 that one of the reasons,

00:28:52.760 potentially,

00:28:53.520 he doesn't know for sure

00:28:54.500 because he doesn't read minds,

00:28:56.920 but one of the reasons

00:28:57.820 that Trump

00:28:58.320 might not want

00:28:59.620 the Epstein files released

00:29:00.940 is how easily

00:29:02.860 they're misinterpreted.

00:29:04.760 And of course,

00:29:05.740 we've all said that, right?

00:29:06.920 That's exactly

00:29:07.840 what I've said.

00:29:08.960 Maybe it's because

00:29:09.700 he doesn't want

00:29:10.220 them misinterpreted.

00:29:11.140 But what Epstein,

00:29:13.260 I'm sorry,

00:29:13.680 what Dershowitz adds

00:29:15.200 that I was less capable

00:29:17.460 of doing

00:29:17.920 is some examples.

00:29:19.960 If you had some

00:29:20.660 specific examples

00:29:21.920 where you know

00:29:23.160 that a true thing

00:29:24.720 got misinterpreted

00:29:25.860 as a false thing,

00:29:27.740 well, that would be

00:29:28.380 a pretty strong argument

00:29:29.420 for not releasing

00:29:30.160 the files.

00:29:31.520 And apparently,

00:29:32.040 there are two examples.

00:29:34.020 One of them is

00:29:35.160 that the,

00:29:37.740 at least the news,

00:29:38.800 in the mainstream news

00:29:40.520 and the pundits,

00:29:41.540 they refer to Epstein

00:29:42.980 as a convicted,

00:29:45.320 quote,

00:29:45.820 a convicted

00:29:46.400 P word.

00:29:49.380 I'm not even going

00:29:50.000 to use the word.

00:29:50.660 You know what I'm talking about.

00:29:52.300 But Dershowitz points out

00:29:53.820 he's never been

00:29:54.460 convicted of that.

00:29:56.000 There's no conviction

00:29:56.900 on that charge.

00:29:59.720 So,

00:30:00.240 was he convicted

00:30:01.480 of something bad?

00:30:03.380 Yes.

00:30:04.720 But was it that?

00:30:06.320 It was not.

00:30:07.060 Now, I'm not going

00:30:08.760 to make the mistake

00:30:09.580 that some people made

00:30:12.000 to act like

00:30:13.420 one of these crimes

00:30:14.320 is the one

00:30:14.820 that's not as bad

00:30:15.600 as the other one.

00:30:16.680 Because as soon

00:30:17.260 as you do that,

00:30:18.080 all the stupid trolls

00:30:19.220 go,

00:30:19.740 oh, you're saying

00:30:21.640 that this one's okay.

00:30:23.060 You're excusing

00:30:24.260 these crimes.

00:30:25.260 No, I'm not.

00:30:27.220 No, no, I'm not.

00:30:29.260 You can have

00:30:29.940 that conversation.

00:30:31.160 I'm not even

00:30:31.740 in the conversation.

00:30:33.620 I refuse to even

00:30:34.720 use the words

00:30:35.600 like in the same paragraph.

00:30:38.000 I'm so out

00:30:38.700 of that conversation.

00:30:39.900 And the reason is

00:30:40.600 because I don't want

00:30:41.180 to be misinterpreted.

00:30:43.260 Do you remember

00:30:43.660 when Megyn Kelly

00:30:44.560 said something

00:30:46.500 about the specifics

00:30:47.920 of the charges?

00:30:48.940 And I'm not going

00:30:49.580 to repeat it

00:30:50.240 because I can't

00:30:51.800 even repeat

00:30:52.720 what Megyn Kelly said,

00:30:55.620 which I believe

00:30:56.400 was technically

00:30:57.800 legally accurate,

00:30:59.420 because I would

00:31:00.480 get misinterpreted too,

00:31:01.700 just like she did.

00:31:03.960 So you just can't,

00:31:05.080 you can't really

00:31:05.640 get near the topic

00:31:06.980 without being

00:31:08.080 misinterpreted

00:31:08.960 because everybody's

00:31:09.700 waiting to bounce.

00:31:12.080 And then there's

00:31:12.940 also the other

00:31:13.560 example of the

00:31:14.400 Virginia Guffrey.

00:31:17.480 She's the one

00:31:18.160 who tragically

00:31:19.000 passed away recently.

00:31:20.860 And apparently

00:31:21.700 she had said

00:31:23.340 she'd never met Trump.

00:31:25.100 And yet the rumors

00:31:25.960 are that she spent

00:31:26.860 hours with him.

00:31:28.060 Now, how do you

00:31:28.740 do a story

00:31:29.420 about a woman

00:31:31.120 who said she'd

00:31:31.720 never met him

00:31:32.440 and not mention

00:31:33.520 that, right?

00:31:35.300 Now, here I think

00:31:36.200 Dershowitz is assuming

00:31:37.500 that the truth

00:31:38.320 is that he'd never

00:31:39.320 met her,

00:31:40.100 because I think

00:31:40.620 Dershowitz makes

00:31:41.440 the same claim

00:31:42.160 that he didn't,

00:31:43.560 I don't know if he

00:31:44.200 said he didn't meet

00:31:44.880 her, but Dershowitz

00:31:46.440 says, you know,

00:31:47.480 nothing happened,

00:31:48.500 but he had been

00:31:49.000 accused as well.

00:31:50.420 So we have

00:31:51.380 several examples

00:31:52.300 of people who

00:31:53.740 were accused

00:31:54.460 of things

00:31:55.060 in that domain,

00:31:56.580 but as far

00:31:58.360 as we know,

00:31:59.960 no proof

00:32:00.580 that they did

00:32:01.080 anything.

00:32:02.180 So, would that

00:32:03.660 be enough

00:32:04.200 of a reason

00:32:04.880 if you're Trump?

00:32:07.300 Would that be

00:32:07.880 enough of a reason

00:32:08.660 to keep those

00:32:09.460 files from being

00:32:10.580 released?

00:32:12.720 That's a tough

00:32:13.520 one, because

00:32:15.000 I think most

00:32:15.960 of you would say,

00:32:16.760 I don't care

00:32:17.320 about your stupid 0.70

00:32:18.140 arguments, Scott.

00:32:20.020 In this particular

00:32:21.220 situation, you just

00:32:22.600 have to release

00:32:23.280 everything.

00:32:24.380 Well, what about

00:32:25.260 this?

00:32:26.080 Nope, release

00:32:26.940 everything.

00:32:27.760 But what about

00:32:28.620 the, no, you

00:32:29.600 just have to

00:32:30.080 release everything.

00:32:31.260 And maybe that's

00:32:32.100 the only way we

00:32:32.700 get past it.

00:32:33.860 But I will tell

00:32:34.860 you, if we

00:32:36.080 release everything,

00:32:37.620 there's something

00:32:38.220 like a hundred

00:32:38.860 percent chance

00:32:39.580 it will destroy

00:32:40.560 lives of men

00:32:43.220 who may not

00:32:45.600 have done the

00:32:46.300 worst thing that

00:32:46.980 they're accused

00:32:47.500 of doing.

00:32:48.400 You know, you

00:32:48.640 could argue,

00:32:49.320 why are we even

00:32:50.280 involved?

00:32:51.320 You know, why

00:32:51.580 did you even

00:32:51.960 know these people?

00:32:52.920 Separate

00:32:53.360 argument.

00:32:53.640 But, yeah, no

00:32:57.200 secrets, LOL.

00:33:00.900 Anyway, just so

00:33:02.660 you know, there

00:33:03.280 is a strong

00:33:04.140 argument for not

00:33:05.260 releasing them,

00:33:06.060 even if there's

00:33:06.700 nothing critical of

00:33:08.260 Trump in them.

00:33:10.140 There's a new

00:33:11.540 book by author

00:33:13.200 Barry Levine,

00:33:15.140 about Epstein.

00:33:16.860 He was talking

00:33:17.420 to Smirkanish

00:33:18.680 today on CNN.

00:33:19.800 I like Smirkanish. 0.65

00:33:23.180 And he was

00:33:23.940 talking about

00:33:24.520 what was it that

00:33:25.900 Epstein meant

00:33:26.760 in a 2011

00:33:27.980 email that we

00:33:29.300 now have access

00:33:30.000 to.

00:33:30.720 And in that

00:33:31.380 email, I guess

00:33:33.420 Epstein said,

00:33:34.820 the dog that

00:33:35.400 hasn't barked

00:33:36.160 is Trump.

00:33:37.580 Now, how in

00:33:39.700 the world are we

00:33:40.460 supposed to know

00:33:41.040 what that means?

00:33:42.240 The dog that

00:33:43.200 hasn't barked

00:33:43.980 is Trump?

00:33:45.260 Really?

00:33:45.780 How many

00:33:47.860 different things

00:33:48.740 could that mean?

00:33:50.420 Like, if you

00:33:50.920 made a list of

00:33:52.480 what it might

00:33:53.060 mean, how long

00:33:54.100 would the list

00:33:54.580 be?

00:33:55.500 Pretty long,

00:33:56.180 right?

00:34:00.180 Pretty long.

00:34:02.520 Anyway, so

00:34:04.280 the author,

00:34:05.880 Barry Levine,

00:34:06.700 says he suspects

00:34:07.740 that Epstein was

00:34:08.700 saying he was

00:34:09.640 75% there and

00:34:12.600 believing that

00:34:13.340 Trump might have

00:34:14.060 been the

00:34:14.400 whistleblower.

00:34:15.780 So his

00:34:16.360 assumption is

00:34:17.220 that it was

00:34:17.660 something about

00:34:19.000 Trump being the

00:34:20.040 one who blew

00:34:20.520 the whistle,

00:34:21.540 so to speak,

00:34:22.900 on Epstein's

00:34:24.660 bad behavior.

00:34:26.520 So we don't

00:34:29.380 have confirmation

00:34:29.960 of that.

00:34:31.940 But so this

00:34:33.620 would suggest

00:34:34.220 that Epstein

00:34:34.840 and Trump

00:34:35.360 really were

00:34:36.120 not, at least

00:34:37.760 at the time

00:34:38.300 of these emails,

00:34:39.680 were more like

00:34:40.480 mortal enemies

00:34:41.220 than friends,

00:34:42.780 wouldn't you

00:34:43.220 say?

00:34:43.460 because you'd

00:34:45.020 have to be

00:34:45.440 sort of a

00:34:46.000 mortal enemy

00:34:46.820 or just a

00:34:48.800 criminal, I

00:34:49.320 guess.

00:34:49.780 You know, if

00:34:50.180 you just assume

00:34:50.800 Trump wanted to

00:34:51.640 stay on the

00:34:52.020 right side of

00:34:52.500 the law and

00:34:53.880 he cared about

00:34:54.460 the victims,

00:34:56.280 then you would

00:34:57.180 say he was

00:34:57.840 just doing what

00:34:58.760 an adult should

00:35:00.240 do in that

00:35:00.900 situation.

00:35:03.100 I don't know.

00:35:03.940 We'll never

00:35:04.300 know.

00:35:04.640 So, and

00:35:05.580 then there's

00:35:06.080 the story

00:35:07.000 about, I

00:35:08.260 guess Epstein

00:35:08.860 was stealing

00:35:09.620 some of the

00:35:11.220 women that 1.00

00:35:11.700 were working

00:35:12.140 at the

00:35:12.560 Mar-a-Lago

00:35:13.020 spa.

00:35:14.020 He was

00:35:14.220 trying to,

00:35:15.520 I don't

00:35:16.000 know if he

00:35:16.300 was, what

00:35:17.300 would you

00:35:17.540 call it,

00:35:18.260 grooming them.

00:35:20.520 And then

00:35:21.220 there was a

00:35:21.680 story about

00:35:22.420 they were

00:35:23.020 both fighting

00:35:23.620 over the

00:35:23.960 same piece

00:35:24.340 of real

00:35:24.700 estate near

00:35:26.660 Mar-a-Lago.

00:35:28.180 So now

00:35:28.600 we've got

00:35:29.000 the, was

00:35:29.760 he the

00:35:30.100 whistleblower?

00:35:31.900 Maybe yes,

00:35:32.500 maybe no.

00:35:32.880 Um, and

00:35:35.180 we've got

00:35:35.600 the, he

00:35:36.660 was stealing

00:35:37.220 staff, that

00:35:38.900 would have

00:35:39.140 been bad.

00:35:39.800 And then

00:35:40.380 we have the

00:35:41.240 real estate

00:35:42.300 thing, which

00:35:42.780 might have

00:35:43.040 been the

00:35:43.300 worst of

00:35:43.680 all the

00:35:43.940 things in

00:35:44.540 terms of

00:35:44.920 how angry

00:35:46.000 they were

00:35:46.380 at each

00:35:46.680 other,

00:35:46.960 because there

00:35:47.300 would be

00:35:47.640 bigger money

00:35:48.200 involved.

00:35:50.020 So are

00:35:50.820 we getting

00:35:51.220 closer to

00:35:52.000 understand what

00:35:52.740 happened?

00:35:53.960 It doesn't

00:35:54.460 feel like it,

00:35:55.080 does it?

00:35:57.220 If you

00:35:57.840 looked at

00:35:58.300 what you

00:35:58.840 knew, I

00:35:59.620 don't know,

00:35:59.800 a year ago

00:36:00.280 or something,

00:36:01.340 and then compare

00:36:01.960 it to what

00:36:02.380 you know

00:36:02.680 now with

00:36:03.680 all these

00:36:04.000 revelations,

00:36:05.560 has anything

00:36:06.620 changed?

00:36:08.140 Is there

00:36:08.540 anything about

00:36:09.460 your opinion

00:36:10.020 of this

00:36:10.400 whole situation

00:36:11.340 that's now

00:36:12.680 different?

00:36:14.660 Hmm, I

00:36:15.880 don't know.

00:36:17.020 I feel like

00:36:17.860 maybe a few,

00:36:18.700 a few blanks

00:36:20.540 got filled

00:36:21.020 in, but not

00:36:21.940 really important

00:36:22.540 ones.

00:36:24.120 I don't know.

00:36:24.580 We'll never

00:36:25.060 know.

00:36:26.520 Um, meanwhile,

00:36:28.200 here's one of

00:36:28.980 these evergreen

00:36:29.720 stories that just

00:36:30.800 will never go

00:36:31.460 away.

00:36:32.380 Uh, apparently

00:36:32.860 the British

00:36:33.340 government is

00:36:34.260 being accused

00:36:34.960 of withholding

00:36:36.540 data that

00:36:37.380 might link

00:36:38.000 COVID jabs

00:36:38.880 to excess

00:36:39.540 deaths, and

00:36:40.980 that allegedly

00:36:41.720 the reason that

00:36:42.620 the government

00:36:43.040 would do that

00:36:43.720 is it would

00:36:44.860 lead, it

00:36:45.800 would lead to

00:36:46.320 distress or

00:36:47.120 danger or

00:36:47.880 anger, distress

00:36:49.080 or anger.

00:36:50.020 The tele, the

00:36:50.620 telegraph is

00:36:51.220 reporting on

00:36:51.760 this.

00:36:52.940 Uh, what

00:36:54.720 do you think?

00:36:55.440 Disclosed TV is

00:36:56.420 also writing

00:36:57.200 about this on

00:36:57.820 X.

00:37:00.000 Now, is

00:37:00.900 that new?

00:37:02.960 Would you

00:37:03.560 consider that

00:37:04.300 news?

00:37:06.180 Or were you

00:37:07.260 already for so

00:37:08.240 long, many

00:37:09.140 months or years

00:37:09.960 already on the

00:37:10.600 page of, oh,

00:37:12.560 yeah, you know,

00:37:13.280 there's some data

00:37:13.940 that shows maybe

00:37:14.960 it was more bad

00:37:15.860 than good?

00:37:16.680 The trouble is,

00:37:17.940 as I often say,

00:37:19.700 there's no data

00:37:20.580 you can trust on

00:37:21.800 the pandemic.

00:37:23.440 Let me say that

00:37:24.140 again.

00:37:24.620 There's no data

00:37:25.540 you can trust.

00:37:26.820 There's lots of

00:37:27.540 data.

00:37:28.960 But there's no,

00:37:29.740 there's no data

00:37:30.520 you can trust on

00:37:32.120 the pandemic.

00:37:32.920 You can't trust

00:37:33.760 that it was safe.

00:37:35.120 You can't trust

00:37:35.660 that it was unsafe.

00:37:36.540 You can't trust

00:37:37.080 that it was safe

00:37:37.560 for some people.

00:37:38.840 You can't trust

00:37:39.420 that it was unsafe

00:37:40.060 for some people.

00:37:40.960 There's actually

00:37:41.960 nothing you can

00:37:43.200 trust when it

00:37:44.720 comes to the data

00:37:45.440 about the pandemic.

00:37:46.380 So I see a story

00:37:47.460 like that and I

00:37:48.080 go, eh, yeah,

00:37:49.940 there'll be 50

00:37:50.940 more of those.

00:37:52.040 I don't know

00:37:52.460 what's true.

00:37:52.840 Meanwhile, as you

00:37:54.680 know, Trump

00:37:55.080 is suing the BBC

00:37:56.080 for maybe up

00:37:56.940 to a billion

00:37:57.540 dollars for editing

00:38:00.300 one of his

00:38:00.980 interviews.

00:38:02.060 And I saw,

00:38:03.000 I think it was

00:38:03.340 on, I think it

00:38:04.340 was on Fox,

00:38:05.480 the list of the

00:38:06.340 people he's

00:38:06.860 successfully sued

00:38:07.960 so far.

00:38:08.740 So YouTube,

00:38:09.400 he got 26 million,

00:38:10.620 Trump did.

00:38:11.580 Meta, 25 million.

00:38:14.120 I don't know

00:38:14.880 when he sued X,

00:38:16.200 but he got 10

00:38:16.900 million.

00:38:17.360 That had to be,

00:38:19.080 was that before

00:38:20.380 Elon took over?

00:38:21.720 I don't remember

00:38:22.300 that actually.

00:38:23.320 CBS, he got for

00:38:24.240 16 million

00:38:25.240 and Disney,

00:38:26.480 69.

00:38:27.560 Is that real?

00:38:28.820 Did he really

00:38:29.200 get a 69 million

00:38:30.360 from Disney?

00:38:32.120 69.

00:38:33.840 Oh, my goodness.

00:38:38.080 And, you know,

00:38:39.340 I have mixed

00:38:39.880 feelings about

00:38:40.600 this.

00:38:42.020 Mixed feelings.

00:38:43.380 On one hand,

00:38:44.740 I don't really

00:38:45.460 want my government

00:38:46.240 suing my media.

00:38:48.520 You know what I

00:38:49.240 mean?

00:38:50.340 That's, that's

00:38:51.240 sort of a little

00:38:51.820 bit icky.

00:38:54.100 You don't want

00:38:54.840 that.

00:38:55.620 On the other

00:38:56.120 hand, don't you

00:38:56.920 want to live in a

00:38:57.520 world where the

00:38:58.860 media is afraid of

00:39:00.360 going after somebody

00:39:01.260 unless they really

00:39:02.040 have the goods?

00:39:03.360 They can't just

00:39:03.880 make shit up.

00:39:05.500 Wouldn't you like to

00:39:06.260 live in a world where

00:39:06.940 they can't just make

00:39:08.420 shit up?

00:39:09.400 Because that's the

00:39:10.240 current world.

00:39:11.220 They just make shit

00:39:11.780 up.

00:39:12.040 So I do think

00:39:13.760 that this is a

00:39:14.540 valuable pushback.

00:39:18.740 You know, if you

00:39:19.540 can live in a

00:39:20.680 perfect world,

00:39:21.600 nobody would sue

00:39:22.300 anybody for

00:39:22.900 anything because

00:39:23.820 nobody would tell

00:39:24.600 a lie.

00:39:26.160 But if they're

00:39:26.940 going to lie, I

00:39:28.560 would rather live

00:39:29.240 in a world where

00:39:29.900 there's a consequence

00:39:30.660 to that so that

00:39:32.600 they don't come

00:39:33.240 after me with

00:39:33.760 their lie.

00:39:34.980 So I do feel

00:39:35.760 that Trump is,

00:39:37.060 in a way, well,

00:39:38.260 not even in a way,

00:39:38.940 in a very direct

00:39:39.940 sense, he's

00:39:41.200 protecting his

00:39:42.780 base.

00:39:44.260 Now, is that the

00:39:45.100 only reason he's

00:39:45.760 doing it?

00:39:46.180 I doubt it.

00:39:47.140 I mean, like

00:39:48.060 everything else,

00:39:48.700 there's always five

00:39:50.160 reasons for doing

00:39:50.920 anything.

00:39:51.560 One of those reasons

00:39:52.400 is free money.

00:39:54.300 Maybe he's just

00:39:55.120 doing it because he

00:39:55.780 gets some money.

00:39:56.900 That's okay.

00:39:58.240 Our system allows

00:39:59.140 that.

00:40:00.120 It might not be the

00:40:00.920 only reason.

00:40:02.280 I'd like to think

00:40:03.180 that it's part of

00:40:04.600 him creating some

00:40:05.500 kind of a pushback

00:40:06.720 structure that would

00:40:08.580 benefit him, but

00:40:10.640 it would also

00:40:11.100 benefit the rest

00:40:11.800 of us.

00:40:13.100 Because if BBC

00:40:14.200 went after me,

00:40:15.740 well, I'll give

00:40:16.740 you this example.

00:40:17.820 If the BBC

00:40:18.560 somehow falsely

00:40:21.460 edited an interview

00:40:22.340 with me, would I

00:40:25.220 be able to use

00:40:25.960 this story, the

00:40:27.100 fact that Trump

00:40:28.400 sued them, and

00:40:29.120 I'm going to

00:40:30.120 project forward

00:40:30.880 that they settle,

00:40:32.880 would that help

00:40:33.660 me?

00:40:34.400 Would I be better

00:40:35.160 off if Trump

00:40:36.020 had successfully

00:40:36.800 sued them for

00:40:37.460 doing the same

00:40:38.020 crime?

00:40:38.580 editing something

00:40:39.900 without permission?

00:40:42.080 Probably it would

00:40:42.920 help.

00:40:44.020 So I think

00:40:45.200 that's good.

00:40:46.320 Well, down in

00:40:47.200 Mexico, apparently

00:40:49.040 the Gen Z part 0.80

00:40:50.820 of the population

00:40:51.580 has been surrounded

00:40:53.220 and trying to

00:40:54.240 occupy their

00:40:54.880 government building

00:40:55.720 there.

00:40:56.560 They are not

00:40:57.580 too happy with

00:40:58.300 their current

00:40:58.740 government,

00:41:00.060 Steinbaum,

00:41:01.040 President Steinbaum.

00:41:03.020 And so they've

00:41:04.900 created a multi-day

00:41:06.260 protest in Mexico

00:41:07.860 city.

00:41:09.060 And as you

00:41:10.280 know, I don't

00:41:11.240 have to explain

00:41:11.840 this to you,

00:41:12.740 the way that you

00:41:13.680 conquer a major

00:41:15.280 country, such as

00:41:17.140 Mexico, is you

00:41:18.660 get some people and

00:41:19.460 you sort of wander

00:41:20.300 around in one of

00:41:21.240 the buildings.

00:41:22.720 What, two of the

00:41:23.560 buildings?

00:41:23.940 No, you don't

00:41:25.560 need to do it in

00:41:26.160 two buildings.

00:41:27.420 What, are you

00:41:27.760 crazy?

00:41:29.100 Like, why would

00:41:29.600 you even do that?

00:41:30.280 No, you can

00:41:31.280 conquer the whole

00:41:32.040 country by simply

00:41:33.760 wandering around in

00:41:35.540 one government

00:41:36.320 building.

00:41:38.500 Again, not two.

00:41:40.600 You don't need two

00:41:41.300 buildings.

00:41:42.300 That would be crazy.

00:41:43.640 Just one.

00:41:44.400 You need one

00:41:44.900 building, wandering

00:41:46.740 around, boom, the

00:41:48.220 whole country falls.

00:41:50.000 Right?

00:41:51.040 That's what the

00:41:51.800 Democrats taught me.

00:41:53.360 They taught me that

00:41:54.220 that's an insurrection.

00:41:55.560 I think that's the

00:41:56.340 word they use, an

00:41:57.180 insurrection.

00:41:59.200 And it's just, you

00:42:00.200 can do it just by

00:42:00.940 wandering around.

00:42:02.520 Now, this has

00:42:03.780 nothing to do with

00:42:06.420 the many, many

00:42:07.340 color revolutions

00:42:08.520 that our own

00:42:09.300 intelligence people

00:42:10.140 have foisted upon

00:42:12.180 other countries,

00:42:13.100 such as Mexico.

00:42:15.420 So even though it

00:42:16.540 looks in every way

00:42:17.700 like America is

00:42:19.920 behind it, why

00:42:22.720 would you think

00:42:23.260 that?

00:42:23.580 just because it

00:42:25.820 looks exactly like

00:42:27.460 it?

00:42:28.520 Yeah.

00:42:29.720 It looks exactly

00:42:30.560 like it.

00:42:31.520 Maybe we're behind

00:42:32.580 it.

00:42:33.560 So that's

00:42:34.560 happening.

00:42:37.080 And some

00:42:38.440 say that the

00:42:39.580 point of the

00:42:40.360 protests is not

00:42:41.340 just general

00:42:42.560 unhappiness with

00:42:43.420 the government,

00:42:44.280 but a specific

00:42:45.460 unhappiness that

00:42:46.460 the government is

00:42:47.280 actually run by

00:42:48.000 the cartels.

00:42:49.940 Do you think

00:42:50.420 that's something

00:42:51.000 that the locals

00:42:51.900 can fix?

00:42:54.580 Well, they could

00:42:55.660 if they got rid

00:42:56.340 of the government,

00:42:57.340 which I believe

00:42:58.640 you do by

00:42:59.300 wandering around

00:43:00.120 in an empty

00:43:00.600 building on the

00:43:02.220 weekend.

00:43:03.180 Well, they're

00:43:03.780 trying.

00:43:06.760 And a lot of

00:43:07.500 people think the

00:43:08.100 president is in

00:43:09.240 league with the

00:43:10.000 cartels, so that's

00:43:11.120 really the main

00:43:12.020 part of it.

00:43:12.800 They don't want

00:43:13.400 to be run and

00:43:14.980 owned by the

00:43:15.620 cartels.

00:43:16.240 according to

00:43:17.940 Wall Street

00:43:20.400 Apes, big

00:43:21.460 account on

00:43:22.260 X that you

00:43:23.220 should follow,

00:43:23.920 Wall Street

00:43:24.340 Apes.

00:43:25.200 There's a

00:43:25.920 senator from

00:43:26.520 Mexico who

00:43:27.180 was recently

00:43:27.620 on Fox

00:43:28.120 News and

00:43:29.260 talking about

00:43:30.100 how Mexico

00:43:31.480 is basically a

00:43:32.480 cartel,

00:43:33.580 narco country.

00:43:34.940 So the

00:43:36.800 claim was that

00:43:37.560 the president

00:43:38.020 of Mexico

00:43:38.500 basically just

00:43:39.260 works for the

00:43:39.840 cartels, that's

00:43:40.760 the claim, was

00:43:42.760 funded by the

00:43:43.580 cartels, is not

00:43:45.540 just the president

00:43:46.280 of the country,

00:43:47.940 oh, it's not just

00:43:48.520 the president, but

00:43:49.180 there's an entire

00:43:49.780 group of Mexican

00:43:50.940 politicians that are

00:43:52.940 collectively referred

00:43:53.880 to as their

00:43:54.760 narco politicians,

00:43:56.380 and that Mexico is a

00:43:57.660 narco state.

00:43:58.500 And that if you

00:44:00.100 imagine it's

00:44:00.740 anything but that,

00:44:02.400 nothing makes sense.

00:44:03.900 But if you

00:44:04.520 imagine it's a

00:44:05.240 narco state, and

00:44:06.740 that the cartels

00:44:07.880 are in charge, and

00:44:08.800 they just put a

00:44:09.680 front person up

00:44:10.680 that happens to

00:44:11.220 be a very

00:44:13.020 pleasant woman,

00:44:15.420 that that's

00:44:16.640 probably a

00:44:17.700 cartel situation.

00:44:20.880 All right.

00:44:24.620 And then the

00:44:25.720 Mexican president

00:44:27.000 has apparently

00:44:29.060 asked for some

00:44:29.880 military intervention,

00:44:31.120 right?

00:44:32.440 So we'll see.

00:44:34.340 The part we don't

00:44:35.180 know, and maybe

00:44:36.060 we'll never know,

00:44:37.300 is what does

00:44:38.760 Trump know about

00:44:39.780 the president of

00:44:41.040 Mexico?

00:44:42.560 What does the

00:44:43.320 president of Mexico

00:44:44.200 know about what

00:44:46.240 Trump knows about

00:44:47.040 her?

00:44:48.960 Is it a

00:44:50.120 salvageable

00:44:50.880 situation where

00:44:52.440 somehow you can

00:44:53.200 remove the cartel

00:44:54.200 influence and keep

00:44:55.260 the person?

00:44:57.000 That doesn't seem

00:44:57.760 like it would

00:44:58.180 work.

00:44:59.620 So is Trump

00:45:01.280 trying to get

00:45:01.980 rid of the

00:45:02.420 president, a

00:45:03.760 color revolution?

00:45:05.320 That's what you'd

00:45:06.180 call that.

00:45:07.200 Or is he trying

00:45:08.340 to nurse the

00:45:09.640 situation forward

00:45:10.640 and find any

00:45:12.280 kind of advantage

00:45:13.020 that might move

00:45:14.040 us forward?

00:45:15.860 We don't know

00:45:16.440 exactly what we're

00:45:17.140 trying to do, or

00:45:18.740 even what's

00:45:19.180 possible down

00:45:20.140 there.

00:45:21.120 Anyway, we'll

00:45:22.480 see, down

00:45:26.300 where I live,

00:45:27.400 California, the

00:45:28.700 one county over,

00:45:30.840 Santa Clara, they

00:45:32.040 just had a special

00:45:32.860 election and they

00:45:33.720 raised their own

00:45:34.460 taxes to 9.75%.

00:45:37.500 That's only sales

00:45:42.000 tax, right?

00:45:43.300 Yeah, that's sales

00:45:44.200 tax.

00:45:44.640 How would

00:45:47.240 you like a

00:45:47.680 sales tax of

00:45:48.500 9.75% on top

00:45:51.300 of a state

00:45:53.080 tax?

00:45:54.200 What is the

00:45:54.800 California state

00:45:55.640 tax right now,

00:45:56.480 the highest?

00:45:57.760 Is it 12%,

00:46:00.480 11%, 12%?

00:46:02.160 What's the

00:46:02.700 highest California

00:46:03.420 state tax?

00:46:04.300 Put it in the

00:46:04.800 comments.

00:46:06.140 And then the

00:46:06.860 federal would be

00:46:07.580 something like

00:46:08.000 37%.

00:46:08.640 37, 47, 57.

00:46:13.720 Two-thirds of

00:46:16.260 what I earn goes

00:46:18.020 directly to

00:46:18.740 Gavin Newsom for

00:46:20.280 his hair gel.

00:46:22.680 So how happy

00:46:24.540 am I about

00:46:25.060 that?

00:46:26.020 Well, right

00:46:27.520 after we're done

00:46:28.100 here, I'm going

00:46:28.540 to have to get a

00:46:29.000 second job to

00:46:30.920 try to pay for

00:46:31.600 all that hair

00:46:32.060 gel.

00:46:33.600 Do you remember

00:46:36.520 when Trump first

00:46:37.880 talked about

00:46:38.500 tariffs, that

00:46:42.780 even smart

00:46:43.760 people couldn't

00:46:45.040 decide if they

00:46:45.640 were a good

00:46:46.020 idea or a bad

00:46:46.720 idea?

00:46:47.120 Do you

00:46:47.260 remember that?

00:46:50.200 And I think

00:46:51.420 I alone, I

00:46:53.440 only remember

00:46:54.080 me, probably

00:46:54.780 other people

00:46:55.220 did the same

00:46:55.760 thing, but I

00:46:56.920 remember saying

00:46:57.620 we're not going

00:46:59.120 to ever know

00:46:59.620 if this worked.

00:47:01.000 That's just not

00:47:01.600 how anything

00:47:02.040 works.

00:47:02.960 The way

00:47:03.400 economics works

00:47:04.300 is you usually

00:47:04.860 don't even know

00:47:05.500 if the thing

00:47:05.960 worked.

00:47:06.580 You might know

00:47:07.300 the outcome,

00:47:08.500 but you

00:47:09.060 don't know

00:47:09.500 is it

00:47:09.940 because of

00:47:10.540 that or

00:47:11.380 what's going

00:47:11.720 to happen

00:47:11.980 anyway?

00:47:12.780 So here's

00:47:13.420 the most

00:47:13.840 surprising

00:47:14.920 study.

00:47:16.160 John Carney

00:47:16.780 in Breitbart

00:47:17.400 News is writing

00:47:18.100 about this.

00:47:21.640 Someone did a

00:47:22.420 big analysis,

00:47:23.440 they call it

00:47:23.960 sweeping new

00:47:24.680 analysis,

00:47:25.780 to find out

00:47:26.660 in the history

00:47:27.780 of tariffs,

00:47:29.100 the 150-year

00:47:30.380 history of

00:47:31.440 tariffs in the

00:47:31.980 United States,

00:47:32.820 if they have

00:47:33.560 created inflation

00:47:38.420 or decreased

00:47:40.260 it.

00:47:40.920 What would you

00:47:41.620 say?

00:47:41.940 Before I tell

00:47:42.600 you the answer,

00:47:44.680 historically,

00:47:46.100 have tariffs

00:47:46.760 increased inflation

00:47:48.660 or decreased

00:47:50.440 it?

00:47:51.060 Now, that's an

00:47:51.500 easy question,

00:47:52.180 right?

00:47:52.760 Simple question.

00:47:53.720 If you raise

00:47:55.520 the cost of

00:47:56.400 something,

00:47:56.940 which is what

00:47:57.400 a tariff does,

00:47:58.460 it raises the

00:47:59.180 cost of

00:47:59.600 something,

00:48:00.280 how does it

00:48:01.160 not create

00:48:01.920 inflation?

00:48:03.560 Right?

00:48:04.600 There's only

00:48:05.220 one way it

00:48:06.420 can go.

00:48:06.820 So, if you

00:48:08.060 do a thing

00:48:08.720 that absolutely

00:48:09.820 by its design

00:48:11.040 increases the

00:48:12.920 cost of

00:48:13.500 everybody involved,

00:48:15.260 which is what

00:48:15.820 a tariff does,

00:48:17.800 not everybody,

00:48:18.860 just the

00:48:19.160 man who

00:48:19.440 decides to

00:48:19.940 absorb it,

00:48:20.900 but how

00:48:22.860 can it be

00:48:23.380 anything except

00:48:24.500 inflationary?

00:48:26.060 I thought the

00:48:26.960 question was how

00:48:28.280 badly it would

00:48:29.280 be inflationary.

00:48:31.020 Didn't you?

00:48:32.240 Maybe you didn't

00:48:32.980 think of it that

00:48:33.500 way.

00:48:33.980 I never thought

00:48:34.700 in terms of is

00:48:35.620 it inflationary or

00:48:36.740 not.

00:48:38.080 I always thought,

00:48:39.000 well, it might

00:48:40.280 not be that

00:48:41.200 inflationary, and

00:48:42.300 if we get other

00:48:43.060 benefits, the

00:48:44.560 benefits might

00:48:45.220 outweigh the

00:48:46.060 inflationary

00:48:47.260 part.

00:48:48.660 But it turns

00:48:49.520 out, according

00:48:50.540 to John

00:48:51.780 Carney and

00:48:52.240 Breitbart News,

00:48:53.060 that there was

00:48:55.440 a big study

00:48:56.140 that showed

00:48:56.860 actually it

00:48:57.660 reduces inflation

00:49:00.360 if you look

00:49:02.540 at the whole

00:49:02.880 150 years.

00:49:04.160 So, he's not

00:49:04.680 looking at just

00:49:05.220 what Trump did.

00:49:06.740 They're looking

00:49:07.180 at the history

00:49:07.780 of that.

00:49:09.240 Do you believe

00:49:09.700 that?

00:49:11.560 And that the

00:49:12.540 entire time,

00:49:14.380 allegedly, even

00:49:16.320 the smartest

00:49:17.080 economists and

00:49:18.180 smartest analysts

00:49:19.180 were getting this

00:49:20.400 wrong, and that

00:49:21.840 there's actually a

00:49:22.980 reason.

00:49:25.240 So, it's not

00:49:26.080 random.

00:49:26.900 There's actually a

00:49:27.600 reason why it

00:49:28.400 reduces inflation.

00:49:29.780 And I'm not sure I

00:49:30.500 understood the

00:49:31.060 reason, honestly.

00:49:32.000 But I'll tell

00:49:35.140 you what the

00:49:35.540 article says.

00:49:36.420 So, this is

00:49:37.080 on John, John

00:49:38.600 Carney.

00:49:39.200 If he doesn't

00:49:40.320 explain it well

00:49:40.940 enough for you to

00:49:41.480 understand, then

00:49:42.820 that's on you and

00:49:43.580 John, not on me

00:49:44.800 at all.

00:49:47.060 But John is

00:49:48.780 writing that the

00:49:49.340 researcher's

00:49:49.960 approach was

00:49:51.740 ingenious.

00:49:52.560 Rather than

00:49:53.280 trying to parse

00:49:54.000 recent decades of

00:49:55.480 limited tariff

00:49:56.300 variation, they

00:49:58.340 exploited massive

00:49:59.380 swings in tariff

00:50:00.480 policy across

00:50:01.920 centuries, using

00:50:03.360 these shifts as a

00:50:04.400 natural experiment

00:50:05.260 to understand

00:50:06.560 cause and

00:50:07.240 effect.

00:50:08.660 Are you sold?

00:50:10.880 Did that sell

00:50:11.740 you?

00:50:13.380 Well, I'm

00:50:16.840 going to say it

00:50:17.460 didn't really sell

00:50:18.400 me on that.

00:50:19.720 But I kind of

00:50:21.000 sort of almost a

00:50:22.640 little bit understand

00:50:23.540 the point of it,

00:50:24.780 that if you look at

00:50:25.660 the big picture, you

00:50:26.520 get a different

00:50:27.020 answer than if you

00:50:27.880 look at any

00:50:28.440 micro part of the

00:50:29.760 picture, that part

00:50:30.880 makes sense.

00:50:32.240 But no, yeah, I'm

00:50:33.860 seeing the comments,

00:50:34.760 you're not buying it

00:50:35.420 at all, are you?

00:50:36.680 I'm not buying this

00:50:37.600 at all.

00:50:38.940 All right, I think

00:50:39.620 I'm with you.

00:50:40.920 I'm not buying the

00:50:42.260 expert opinion here.

00:50:44.240 I do still think

00:50:45.560 that the open

00:50:47.120 question is how

00:50:48.500 much it changes

00:50:49.260 anything.

00:50:50.880 If the how much

00:50:51.860 it changes anything

00:50:52.700 isn't that much,

00:50:53.540 then that's all you

00:50:54.320 need.

00:50:56.320 Anyway, you know,

00:50:57.820 I keep telling you

00:50:58.560 Ukraine is becoming 0.98

00:50:59.580 a robot-only war.

00:51:01.760 Here's some more

00:51:02.480 evidence of that.

00:51:06.060 So there's an

00:51:06.940 article I just read

00:51:08.300 somewhere that said

00:51:10.500 the ubiquity of

00:51:11.780 precision weapons,

00:51:13.120 I wish I knew who

00:51:13.860 said this.

00:51:14.440 I'm just stealing

00:51:15.580 their good work

00:51:16.340 right now.

00:51:17.200 I apologize.

00:51:18.720 But there's so many

00:51:19.760 precision weapons

00:51:20.620 that if you were to

00:51:21.440 look at the, if you

00:51:23.680 look at the front line

00:51:24.680 from the sky, you

00:51:27.360 wouldn't see much

00:51:28.460 of any concentration

00:51:29.560 of forces because

00:51:31.840 as soon as you put

00:51:32.860 anything out there

00:51:33.680 that has size, you

00:51:34.980 know, like a tank or

00:51:35.980 any kind of a

00:51:37.260 vehicle, it just

00:51:38.080 blows up.

00:51:39.440 The other side has

00:51:40.460 such good drones now

00:51:41.460 that 100% of

00:51:42.740 everything you put in

00:51:43.460 the war zone blows up,

00:51:44.740 like all of it.

00:51:45.820 So if you were to

00:51:46.520 look at the war zone,

00:51:47.420 it would be kind of

00:51:47.980 empty.

00:51:48.320 And just think

00:51:50.980 about that, that any

00:51:54.460 other war zone in the

00:51:55.960 history of wars, let's

00:51:57.360 say World War I or

00:51:58.560 II, if you could fly

00:52:00.480 over it and look down

00:52:01.460 at what was happening,

00:52:02.660 you would see that both

00:52:03.420 sides are really

00:52:04.100 concentrated, like a

00:52:05.440 whole bunch of people

00:52:06.100 in a, in a trench.

00:52:07.940 And then beyond that,

00:52:09.080 there are a whole bunch

00:52:09.540 of other people and

00:52:10.280 beyond that, a whole

00:52:10.880 bunch of other people.

00:52:11.960 But it'd be a lot of

00:52:12.720 people.

00:52:14.960 There's not a lot of

00:52:15.780 people now on the

00:52:16.900 front lines.

00:52:17.520 It's mostly, and it's

00:52:19.540 not even, not a lot

00:52:20.600 of people, it's also

00:52:21.640 not assets, because

00:52:24.220 100% of the assets

00:52:25.340 blow up too. 0.63

00:52:26.840 So you can't put a

00:52:27.660 person there, and you

00:52:29.180 can't put an asset

00:52:29.840 there.

00:52:30.700 It all just blows up.

00:52:32.800 So it's this weird,

00:52:34.420 like, empty zone.

00:52:37.220 And I would remind

00:52:39.180 you that was my

00:52:40.000 prediction from a long

00:52:41.160 time ago.

00:52:42.740 That's where it's all

00:52:43.700 going, people.

00:52:45.300 Now I believe there

00:52:46.600 was a,

00:52:47.520 reframe that I was

00:52:48.760 going to give you

00:52:49.360 that I skipped right

00:52:51.480 over, but it's

00:52:52.120 exactly the time to

00:52:53.220 give you this reframe

00:52:54.400 from my book,

00:52:56.940 Reframe Your Brain,

00:52:58.040 the best book ever

00:52:58.860 written, according to

00:53:01.060 everybody.

00:53:01.980 Everybody says it.

00:53:04.060 Everybody.

00:53:05.500 All right, here's one

00:53:06.580 of my favorites.

00:53:10.220 Did you ever, and

00:53:12.260 you'll notice that

00:53:13.340 some of these

00:53:13.880 reframes hit the same

00:53:15.080 point, but from a

00:53:16.820 different direction?

00:53:19.460 There's one giant

00:53:20.420 sacrifice.

00:53:21.780 It's more luck.

00:53:23.180 All right.

00:53:24.220 So this might sound

00:53:25.580 familiar, but I

00:53:26.700 haven't taken it from

00:53:27.620 this approach point,

00:53:29.640 from this.

00:53:30.500 I haven't taken it from

00:53:31.400 the ladies' tea before.

00:53:33.040 No, I'm just making

00:53:33.660 that up.

00:53:34.840 All right.

00:53:35.460 Have you ever been in a

00:53:36.340 situation where you

00:53:37.240 thought to yourself,

00:53:38.280 no one wants to talk

00:53:40.200 to you because you're

00:53:41.020 boring?

00:53:42.560 Has anybody ever had

00:53:43.580 that thought?

00:53:44.320 I don't think anybody

00:53:45.280 even wants to talk to

00:53:46.140 me.

00:53:46.900 I really don't have

00:53:47.580 anything to say.

00:53:48.940 Nothing to add to the

00:53:49.840 conversation.

00:53:51.540 Well, let me reframe

00:53:53.860 that.

00:53:55.120 Instead of thinking

00:53:55.920 that maybe nobody

00:53:56.660 wants to talk to you

00:53:57.360 because you're boring,

00:53:58.880 you should understand

00:53:59.920 that what makes

00:54:00.580 anybody want to talk

00:54:01.740 to anybody is that

00:54:04.020 they show interest in

00:54:05.100 the person talking.

00:54:05.940 The moment you think

00:54:08.280 that a conversation

00:54:09.240 is about a real

00:54:10.880 high-quality exchange

00:54:12.220 of ideas, then you

00:54:14.040 don't know what a

00:54:14.660 conversation is.

00:54:17.260 Sometimes some high-quality

00:54:18.640 ideas get exchanged,

00:54:20.180 but that's not what

00:54:20.780 they're for.

00:54:22.120 That's not what the

00:54:22.860 conversation's for.

00:54:24.540 It's about how you

00:54:25.280 make each other feel.

00:54:28.240 That's your goal.

00:54:29.780 Your goal is to make

00:54:30.600 the other person feel

00:54:31.480 good.

00:54:32.200 And the way you do

00:54:33.000 that, and it works

00:54:33.820 every time, is to show

00:54:35.820 genuine interest in

00:54:37.120 whatever they got

00:54:38.060 going on.

00:54:39.260 People love it when

00:54:41.840 you show interest in

00:54:42.860 them.

00:54:43.260 Do you know why they

00:54:43.820 love it when you show

00:54:44.600 interest in them?

00:54:46.920 It's how I started.

00:54:48.880 And I said, no one

00:54:50.060 wants to talk to me

00:54:50.920 because I'm boring.

00:54:52.300 You're not the one

00:54:53.320 person thinking that.

00:54:55.760 Everybody at the

00:54:56.580 party is thinking

00:54:57.240 that.

00:54:58.160 They're all thinking

00:54:59.160 that maybe I'm a

00:55:00.040 little boring, or

00:55:00.740 maybe I already said

00:55:01.480 that.

00:55:02.300 But you can all

00:55:03.220 solve your problem

00:55:04.300 the same way, just

00:55:06.340 by asking more

00:55:07.120 questions about the

00:55:07.940 other person and

00:55:08.740 acting interested.

00:55:10.220 Now, ideally, you're

00:55:11.060 not acting, right?

00:55:12.620 You should be able to

00:55:13.700 find a way to be

00:55:14.680 interested in

00:55:15.820 somebody's life.

00:55:17.620 You might have to

00:55:18.340 guide them into

00:55:20.400 some subtopic that's

00:55:22.360 better for both of

00:55:23.100 you.

00:55:23.740 But no, you can

00:55:25.280 always find a way

00:55:26.760 to be mutually

00:55:28.420 interested.

00:55:30.400 And that, ladies 0.97

00:55:31.060 and gentlemen, brings

00:55:32.820 us to the top of the

00:55:33.680 hour.

00:55:34.620 You know what I

00:55:35.060 haven't done in a

00:55:35.720 long time is take

00:55:36.820 questions.

00:55:39.900 I thought this would

00:55:40.820 be an awesome time to

00:55:41.680 do that.

00:55:42.100 I'll just do one or

00:55:42.820 two, and probably

00:55:44.580 more from locals,

00:55:48.360 just because they're

00:55:49.340 the locals stuff

00:55:52.100 highlighted, so it's

00:55:52.960 easier to see.

00:55:54.160 All right.

00:55:55.500 Anybody have any

00:55:56.200 questions over at

00:55:57.080 locals?

00:55:57.480 You guys have all

00:55:58.340 asked me all your

00:55:58.940 questions for years.

00:56:00.000 factories suppressed?

00:56:04.940 Well, we don't

00:56:05.760 really know, but

00:56:06.700 surely there are

00:56:08.080 suppressed factories

00:56:09.040 in Ukraine.

00:56:13.340 Yep, the Dale

00:56:14.220 Carnegie course is

00:56:15.300 how to make people

00:56:16.140 like you.

00:56:17.100 Exactly.

00:56:18.540 So take the Dale

00:56:19.640 Carnegie course.

00:56:20.440 So, are U.S.

00:56:27.460 factories have been

00:56:28.200 suppressed by the

00:56:29.020 foreign ownership?

00:56:30.500 Maybe.

00:56:32.660 How do you talk to

00:56:33.940 woke libs?

00:56:35.820 I don't.

00:56:38.160 I try to just avoid

00:56:39.320 it.

00:56:41.520 What's the definition

00:56:42.540 of an NPC?

00:56:43.180 A non-player

00:56:44.140 character, like in

00:56:46.820 a video game.

00:56:49.460 All right.

00:56:50.000 What else have we

00:56:50.480 got here?

00:56:57.180 Win friends.

00:56:59.340 Has Carl the

00:57:00.340 Fly's family sought

00:57:01.700 revenge?

00:57:02.260 Well, I don't know.

00:57:03.740 I believe they're

00:57:04.360 building tunnels

00:57:05.700 under my house.

00:57:10.860 Does the universe

00:57:11.740 owe you?

00:57:13.180 Yes, it does.

00:57:15.700 Would tariffs

00:57:16.660 decrease demand?

00:57:18.260 So no inflation.

00:57:20.660 That would be one

00:57:21.880 of many effects.

00:57:22.920 Yes.

00:57:23.560 If it decreased

00:57:24.440 demand, it would

00:57:25.320 decrease inflation.

00:57:27.160 That is correct.

00:57:28.260 But there are lots

00:57:28.900 of other gives and

00:57:30.140 takes there.

00:57:30.700 It's not the only

00:57:31.180 thing happening.

00:57:35.400 All right.

00:57:39.500 You're the luckiest

00:57:40.520 guy ever, so the

00:57:41.940 universe doesn't owe 0.95

00:57:42.780 you.

00:57:43.700 Well, that's okay

00:57:44.600 too, being the

00:57:46.820 luckiest guy ever.

00:57:50.760 Hmm.

00:57:53.500 What is the best

00:57:54.380 form of Sergio

00:57:57.500 S?

00:57:59.700 What is the best

00:58:00.800 form of exercise?

00:58:02.140 I said, okay, you're

00:58:03.700 just joking with me.

00:58:04.980 We have a running

00:58:05.920 joke that the best

00:58:06.860 form of exercise is

00:58:07.920 swimming because it's

00:58:09.200 so obvious.

00:58:12.960 Trump's greatest

00:58:13.760 accomplishment.

00:58:18.460 What is Trump's

00:58:19.560 greatest accomplishment?

00:58:20.620 accomplishments?

00:58:22.040 Well, good question.

00:58:25.560 The reason that's such a

00:58:26.820 hard question, what are

00:58:28.140 Trump's greatest

00:58:28.860 accomplishments, is he's

00:58:30.400 not done yet.

00:58:31.280 So if the only thing you

00:58:33.500 took was whatever comes

00:58:35.240 out of Maha, and then

00:58:36.900 you said, well, Maha

00:58:37.960 wouldn't happen without

00:58:39.020 MAGA, then you would

00:58:41.000 assign some of those

00:58:42.360 benefits.

00:58:42.880 And it could be

00:58:43.420 something as important

00:58:44.280 as cutting chronic

00:58:46.420 illness in half.

00:58:47.260 If Trump's

00:58:49.540 willingness to work

00:58:51.820 with RFK Jr.

00:58:53.800 cut childhood

00:58:54.680 chronic illness in

00:58:55.720 half, what would be

00:58:58.120 bigger than that?

00:59:00.040 That'd be hard to

00:59:00.920 beat, but you don't

00:59:01.820 know if it's going to

00:59:02.420 happen.

00:59:03.840 So with Trump, he's

00:59:04.940 got a whole bunch of

00:59:05.560 things brewing that if

00:59:07.540 they happen, such as

00:59:08.560 peace in the Middle

00:59:09.340 East, they'd be the 0.86

00:59:11.000 biggest things ever.

00:59:12.440 You know, the

00:59:12.800 Abraham Accords

00:59:14.480 growing to extra

00:59:15.700 countries.

00:59:16.220 don't know if it'll

00:59:17.400 happen, but my God,

00:59:19.620 if it did, what

00:59:22.020 level of accomplishment

00:59:23.640 is that?

00:59:24.440 It's like he doesn't

00:59:24.980 have words.

00:59:26.420 So there are a whole

00:59:26.980 bunch of things Trump

00:59:27.980 has going on that

00:59:32.400 you could very easily

00:59:33.360 individually think,

00:59:35.240 that's the most

00:59:36.200 amazing thing.

00:59:38.320 Hey, I got a

00:59:39.080 package.

00:59:42.080 All right, what else

00:59:42.980 we got going on?

00:59:44.700 I'm only doing a

00:59:46.060 little extra because

00:59:46.760 it's Sunday.

00:59:47.920 Some of you are doing

00:59:48.800 your Sunday exercise

00:59:49.880 and Sunday chores, and

00:59:51.520 you said to yourself,

00:59:52.320 oh, is he done early

00:59:54.340 today?

00:59:55.340 Because I just wanted to

00:59:56.360 finish my chores while

00:59:57.260 he's still yakking.

00:59:58.900 So I'm yakking a little

00:59:59.800 bit while you finish up

01:00:00.700 your chores or your

01:00:01.840 exercise, whatever it

01:00:02.820 is.

01:00:05.020 The hemp bill.

01:00:05.960 Yeah, I haven't really

01:00:09.900 looked into it.

01:00:10.640 The trouble is, if I

01:00:11.760 look into the hemp

01:00:12.620 bill in detail, I

01:00:15.060 don't feel like I'd

01:00:15.980 still understand it.

01:00:18.180 That's very much, you'd

01:00:20.640 have to know legislation

01:00:21.800 and you'd have to know

01:00:22.860 the law and you'd have

01:00:24.640 to know probably ag to

01:00:27.060 even evaluate whether it

01:00:28.320 was a good idea or a bad

01:00:29.360 idea as a stance.

01:00:30.300 So I feel like I'd be a

01:00:32.100 little out of my depth

01:00:32.920 there.

01:00:45.180 Same as soil and

01:00:46.400 green, yeah.

01:00:51.560 Best simulation

01:00:52.920 mint name.

01:00:57.940 Government.

01:01:00.300 What is that with my

01:01:01.540 name on it?

01:01:04.340 What health apps does

01:01:05.780 Scott use on his

01:01:06.880 Apple Watch?

01:01:08.640 None.

01:01:11.560 So I have the Apple,

01:01:13.200 where is it?

01:01:15.620 Somewhere around here I

01:01:16.800 have an Apple Watch.

01:01:21.180 It disappeared.

01:01:24.840 So I have looked at the

01:01:27.180 health apps so I know

01:01:29.100 what they are.

01:01:29.520 but honestly they

01:01:30.600 don't look that

01:01:31.420 useful.

01:01:40.560 Work ethic.

01:01:41.680 You know what?

01:01:42.380 I love it.

01:01:44.480 I love it when people

01:01:45.640 give me credit for a good

01:01:47.240 work ethic because that's

01:01:49.900 what I would be most

01:01:50.700 proud of is that it's

01:01:54.480 just that.

01:01:55.460 That would be the thing

01:01:56.440 I have the most pride

01:01:57.800 in.

01:01:58.500 Before this,

01:01:59.860 it would have been

01:02:00.600 working full time and

01:02:01.960 getting my MBA at the

01:02:03.420 same time.

01:02:04.620 Very proud of that

01:02:05.660 because of the level of

01:02:06.860 difficulty involved.

01:02:08.840 And how much,

01:02:09.780 you know,

01:02:10.200 how much pain you're

01:02:12.060 willing to put up with

01:02:12.960 to get ahead.

01:02:13.960 To me,

01:02:14.380 those are good markers

01:02:15.340 of, you know,

01:02:16.760 who you are and how

01:02:17.600 it's going to go.

01:02:18.220 But to finish my point,

01:02:26.880 what you see as my work

01:02:29.780 ethic is because you're

01:02:31.080 filtering my experience

01:02:32.400 through your brain.

01:02:33.360 If you filtered it

01:02:35.180 through my brain,

01:02:36.380 it wouldn't look as

01:02:38.620 impressive.

01:02:40.460 Does anybody know why?

01:02:42.460 In my brain,

01:02:44.160 the working is

01:02:45.320 something I enjoy.

01:02:48.280 When I'm sitting here

01:02:49.420 at four in the morning

01:02:50.320 and some of you are like,

01:02:52.680 oh,

01:02:53.100 I never want to get up

01:02:53.860 at four in the morning.

01:02:54.840 I'm drinking coffee.

01:02:56.420 I'm petting my cats

01:02:57.300 sometimes.

01:02:58.360 I'm having a great time

01:02:59.800 at four in the morning.

01:03:01.740 But it's work.

01:03:03.380 And then when I go live,

01:03:05.040 I absolutely love the time

01:03:07.020 that I'm talking live,

01:03:08.020 like right now.

01:03:09.660 The rest of my day

01:03:11.000 could be pretty good.

01:03:12.960 Might be pretty good.

01:03:14.980 But probably won't be

01:03:16.720 this good

01:03:17.160 that I get to talk to

01:03:19.420 what?

01:03:21.180 How many people?

01:03:23.700 300,000.

01:03:26.900 So maybe,

01:03:28.500 you know,

01:03:29.200 several thousand people

01:03:30.760 at the same time.

01:03:31.440 And I can fool myself

01:03:35.580 into thinking

01:03:36.340 that this has some value

01:03:38.180 to the world.

01:03:39.320 You know,

01:03:39.700 I'm not just talking

01:03:40.700 into the void,

01:03:41.940 but rather I'm

01:03:43.300 testing out some ideas

01:03:44.560 and some reframes.

01:03:46.140 And if the ideas

01:03:47.160 of the reframes

01:03:47.840 are good,

01:03:49.580 maybe they take on

01:03:50.580 a life of their own.

01:03:51.260 So it's always good

01:03:53.980 to have something

01:03:54.760 brewing in your life

01:03:56.940 that does the following thing.

01:03:59.080 It gives you discipline,

01:04:00.920 which is what my getting up

01:04:02.960 every day does for me.

01:04:04.360 It gives me discipline.

01:04:05.320 And a variety of other things.

01:04:10.120 I mean,

01:04:10.460 discipline is just one of them.

01:04:12.240 So

01:04:12.580 what you see

01:04:14.900 is a insane work ethic.

01:04:18.020 And what I see

01:04:18.880 is that I've

01:04:19.620 managed to turn my job

01:04:22.080 into my hobby,

01:04:22.880 into my passion.

01:04:24.000 So if you've listened

01:04:26.800 to Scott Galloway

01:04:28.860 and some other people

01:04:30.120 have said the same thing,

01:04:31.280 you don't want to start

01:04:32.240 with passion

01:04:32.840 and then work it

01:04:33.600 into a job.

01:04:34.860 You can do it.

01:04:36.340 Well,

01:04:36.600 that's pretty hard.

01:04:37.940 But if you start at,

01:04:39.200 you know,

01:04:40.120 a really good job

01:04:41.140 and then you can convert

01:04:42.560 that into a passion,

01:04:44.280 well,

01:04:44.540 now you got something.

01:04:46.380 Now you got something.

01:04:48.360 So you're largely

01:04:49.960 seeing me doing

01:04:50.940 exactly what I want to do.

01:04:52.500 but you're interpreting it

01:04:54.900 as work

01:04:55.560 because it might feel

01:04:57.380 like work to you.

01:04:59.280 To me,

01:04:59.720 it's not work.

01:05:00.800 For example,

01:05:02.180 when I'm organizing

01:05:03.680 my notes

01:05:04.400 of like what I'm going

01:05:05.780 to say

01:05:06.080 on a certain topic,

01:05:07.440 that's not work.

01:05:10.440 I'm actually thinking

01:05:11.740 how you receive it

01:05:13.040 and I'm thinking

01:05:14.100 how I'll say it

01:05:15.040 and I'm thinking,

01:05:17.120 oh,

01:05:17.420 will this change

01:05:18.820 how you look at it?

01:05:20.380 I just deeply enjoy that.

01:05:22.660 There's nothing about that

01:05:23.900 that feels like work.

01:05:25.280 Every part of that

01:05:26.220 feels like entertainment

01:05:27.260 to me

01:05:27.680 as much as using X.

01:05:30.760 You know,

01:05:31.040 when I use X,

01:05:31.820 I'm not thinking it work.

01:05:33.500 I'm thinking,

01:05:34.420 oh,

01:05:34.540 this would be fun to say

01:05:35.580 or somebody would like

01:05:36.480 to hear this

01:05:37.160 or,

01:05:37.900 you know,

01:05:38.000 this might be viral

01:05:38.900 or something.

01:05:40.040 But

01:05:40.480 none of it feels like work

01:05:43.020 and the podcast

01:05:45.240 is like that.

01:05:46.240 it's kind of fun.

01:05:51.740 Anyway,

01:05:52.320 I hope that was

01:05:53.040 a decent answer

01:05:54.280 because I get,

01:05:55.480 I might get a little bit

01:05:56.540 too much credit

01:05:57.420 for my work ethic.

01:05:58.640 It is,

01:05:59.120 I do have an impressive

01:05:59.980 work ethic.

01:06:00.740 So I'm going to say

01:06:01.460 that that's true

01:06:02.520 but maybe not,

01:06:04.300 maybe not as good

01:06:06.180 as you think it is.

01:06:07.000 it is pretty good though.

01:06:14.080 When people tell you

01:06:15.120 to take the day off,

01:06:16.220 I know,

01:06:17.140 people tell me

01:06:17.760 to take the day off.

01:06:19.320 It's like,

01:06:19.640 do you not understand?

01:06:21.420 Day off doesn't help me.

01:06:23.540 Day on helps me,

01:06:24.860 not day off.

01:06:29.360 How would you persuade

01:06:30.660 an artificial super intelligence

01:06:32.560 that humans are worth

01:06:33.700 keeping around?

01:06:34.540 Why would I do that?

01:06:35.960 I'm going to persuade

01:06:36.760 the super intelligence

01:06:37.740 to keep me around

01:06:38.900 as its boss.

01:06:41.720 The rest of you,

01:06:42.840 well,

01:06:43.080 you're going to have

01:06:43.420 to find out your,

01:06:44.420 you're going to have

01:06:44.880 to work out

01:06:45.320 your own scam.

01:06:49.580 Good luck with that.

01:06:55.340 You're going to bed early,

01:06:56.520 drink coffee.

01:07:00.420 Notified you

01:07:01.060 of a serious issue

01:07:01.980 with your heart.

01:07:02.680 Interesting.

01:07:05.180 Interesting.

01:07:06.760 All right.

01:07:11.360 What did Michael

01:07:12.420 Sally say?

01:07:14.020 MTG has fallen off

01:07:15.580 the deep end

01:07:17.260 like Tucker Canada

01:07:18.260 said.

01:07:18.700 She lost her

01:07:19.280 remaining credibility

01:07:20.360 on the view.

01:07:22.220 We don't care

01:07:22.920 what that person says.

01:07:29.140 All right.

01:07:29.760 The Apple watch.

01:07:30.600 Yeah.

01:07:35.520 I need to write

01:07:36.400 some more comics

01:07:37.300 today.

01:07:39.080 Most offended person

01:07:40.220 on the planet

01:07:40.680 you might be.

01:07:44.320 All right.

01:07:44.840 You want an 807 sip?

01:07:46.560 I think you get one.

01:07:48.520 All right,

01:07:49.000 ladies and gentlemen,

01:07:49.640 this will conclude

01:07:50.920 our show

01:07:52.220 for the day.

01:07:54.900 to the locals,

01:07:56.720 just for a minute.
