Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 855 Scott Adams： Simultaneously Sipping the Crisis Away. Relax for a Few With Me

00:00:00.560 Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum. 0.97

00:00:03.320 Oh, don't worry, I'm only a few minutes late.

00:00:06.800 Do not have the coronavirus.

00:00:09.700 I'm fresh and clean.

00:00:11.920 Fresh as the morning dew.

00:00:14.820 Yes, no coronavirus can find me.

00:00:17.120 I am in deep hiding.

00:00:20.020 You know what is the most famous saying in all of military?

00:00:26.480 I think you do.

00:00:28.340 Divide and conquer. 0.98

00:00:30.440 We're using the most historically efficient, effective way to beat a warring enemy.

00:00:40.060 And we are at war.

00:00:41.800 Trust me, we are at war with this virus.

00:00:45.180 And we have taken the strategy, at least in this country, to divide and conquer.

00:00:50.800 Could that work?

00:00:52.780 Yeah.

00:00:54.060 Yep, that's why we're doing it.

00:00:56.180 We're doing it because it works.

00:00:58.040 Divide and conquer, people. 0.98

00:00:59.640 You've got a strategy.

00:01:01.300 But first, it's a good day.

00:01:04.620 Because you're here and you're about to enjoy the simultaneous sip.

00:01:08.300 And there's not many things better than that, really.

00:01:11.760 And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or stye, and a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:01:18.640 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:19.840 I like coffee.

00:01:20.280 I like coffee.

00:01:22.280 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better, including the coronavirus.

00:01:29.400 I feel my immune response up to the challenge.

00:01:43.680 I went for a really nice walk last night after dark.

00:01:48.400 So the weather around here is, you know, we're in that season where it could be a good day or a bad day, 50-degree swings.

00:01:55.620 And last night it was pretty chilly, but I put on my big coat and scarf and hat and went for a long walk.

00:02:03.940 And it is a really interesting world out there because there are a lot of people taking long walks because there's not much else to do.

00:02:14.780 And I cannot recommend enough.

00:02:18.480 Honestly, if there's anybody listening to this who did not take a long walk yesterday, do yourself a favor.

00:02:25.800 Because your mental state, your body, all of your chemistry that makes you stressed does get suppressed.

00:02:37.480 It's not that hard.

00:02:38.540 You just take a nice walk.

00:02:40.200 But here's the interesting thing.

00:02:41.280 There are lots of other people taking walks.

00:02:43.360 And there are lots of situations where you would have to, you know, walk past them in the other direction on the sidewalk.

00:02:49.080 Now, I'm in a suburban neighborhood.

00:02:50.780 And so normally, it's not like there are a ton of people walking around.

00:02:56.260 It's mostly people going to their houses and drive around.

00:02:59.700 But last night, a lot of people were walking.

00:03:02.400 A lot of people were walking.

00:03:03.880 And you would come near them.

00:03:05.280 And there would be this weird thing that you've never seen before where people would cross the street a block before they saw you.

00:03:12.760 And then I saw somebody do that to me.

00:03:15.200 And then I thought, why not?

00:03:17.500 But, so every time I saw somebody else coming the other way, I crossed the street.

00:03:22.420 And I don't know, you know, I don't think any of it makes much difference.

00:03:27.080 I mean, walking past somebody on the sidewalk versus crossing the street, does it make that much difference?

00:03:33.560 I don't know.

00:03:34.460 You know, ask an expert.

00:03:36.060 I don't think it's impossible that somebody couldn't cough in your direction just as you walked by.

00:03:41.220 But I think it's pretty low risk.

00:03:42.680 However, I do like the fact that people are taking it seriously.

00:03:52.380 And every time we do a wide circle, every time we say no to a handshake, every time we walk around somebody, it reminds them.

00:04:02.440 It reminds them that this is not a drill.

00:04:05.360 This is real.

00:04:06.100 Now, most of us will be absolutely fine.

00:04:09.360 We'll be fine now.

00:04:10.520 We'll be fine when it's over.

00:04:11.820 And we'll be great when we're past it.

00:04:14.400 But, yeah, let's take it seriously at the same time.

00:04:19.400 Somebody said that Bill Mitchell has turned around and may be taking it seriously.

00:04:25.300 Could it be because he can't leave his house?

00:04:27.100 Because, you know, there's part of me that wonders if, no, I don't think this is the case, but part of me wonders if the nature of the restrictions are meant to get your attention as much as they're meant to separate you.

00:04:45.740 Now, of course, the important thing is to separate you.

00:04:48.280 That's, you know, that's the functional part of it.

00:04:50.840 But I have to think it has this second benefit that I'm sure people thought of, which is people did not take this seriously until the government of the United States said, don't leave your house or the police are going to tap you on the shoulder, well, from six feet away.

00:05:08.380 They'll have like a six-foot pole and they'll say, hey, hey, get back in your house.

00:05:14.140 Not really.

00:05:14.980 They don't really have a pole.

00:05:16.620 But you know what I mean.

00:05:17.680 And I think this has finally turned people around.

00:05:21.800 I saw some tweets by Elon Musk.

00:05:24.480 Now, some of you know that Elon said some things that sounded like he was minimizing it or comparing it to a regular flu or something, which a lot of people did early on and then talked themselves out of it as events proceeded.

00:05:43.620 But it looked like from the last couple of tweets I saw from Elon, he was talking about a particular drug.

00:05:51.340 We've talked about it.

00:05:53.840 What's it called?

00:05:55.260 It's got that weird name that's hard to pronounce.

00:05:58.940 Chloroquine.

00:06:00.620 Chloroquine.

00:06:01.820 A drug for malaria.

00:06:02.860 And apparently we're seeing multiple reports, not yet scientifically valid in humans, but assumed to be valid because it's been tried enough now already.

00:06:15.480 Then people are seeing pretty clear across the board's benefits.

00:06:20.180 Now, this is for somebody who's already got it.

00:06:22.200 And apparently it makes a big difference.

00:06:23.700 But here's more good news.

00:06:27.200 All right.

00:06:27.500 So this drug, chloroquine, and it's something Elon Musk tweeted around, does look promising.

00:06:36.140 It does look promising.

00:06:37.480 But there's another drug that seems to be, I don't know, I'm not enough of a chemist to know what's going on here.

00:06:43.900 But it looks like a stronger version of it or something in the same family called hydroxychloroquine.

00:06:55.780 Hydroxychloroquine.

00:06:56.900 And I think there's a 2020 peer-reviewed paper.

00:07:01.480 And again, peer-reviewed paper doesn't mean it's true.

00:07:05.920 It doesn't mean it's right.

00:07:07.500 It just means it passed one filter of which you would hope it would pass lots before you really believed it.

00:07:13.940 But in an emergency, people probably are going to take a different risk profile than they normally would and should.

00:07:21.080 That makes sense, an emergency.

00:07:23.400 And it looks like this version of the drug is maybe four times, was it four or five?

00:07:31.180 I forget.

00:07:31.620 But four or five times stronger, at least in vitro.

00:07:35.040 In other words, in a test tube, it was four to five times stronger.

00:07:38.760 And I believe that both of these drugs are well understood.

00:07:43.600 At least the chloroquine is well understood, for sure.

00:07:47.260 Because it's something that people have been taking for a long time for malaria and, I think, rheumatoid arthritis.

00:07:53.000 So we understand the risks.

00:07:56.960 And I think the thinking was that this new drug that's four times more effective is close enough in nature to the other one that we do know a lot about.

00:08:10.140 Though it's probably not the biggest risk in the world to make this available, especially to people who seem to be getting helped by it.

00:08:19.380 So we've got two things that look really promising.

00:08:21.700 So I said to myself, well, I assume we're just cranking out lots of that stuff, right?

00:08:27.960 I mean, just in case.

00:08:29.540 Wouldn't you assume that just based on the early reports, our government would be trying to stockpile that stuff as quickly as possible?

00:08:38.760 So I said to myself, well, who makes this chloroquine drug?

00:08:43.680 So I drilled down a little bit, and it's a French company.

00:08:48.980 So the drug that probably, at this point, is one of two drugs.

00:08:55.000 The other one is remdesivir or something.

00:08:58.140 A drug that used to be used for HIV, but I think they got better ones now.

00:09:02.480 And that appears to be very, very effective as well.

00:09:05.660 So anyway, but this chloroquine is made by a French company called Sanofi Adventus, a merger of the two companies.

00:09:16.900 And then my trail went cold, because I was doing this just before I came on.

00:09:22.420 That's why I was a few minutes late.

00:09:23.940 I was trying to see if I could figure out where the drug that, if I had to guess, I think it's going to be the key to this thing.

00:09:33.180 Because long before we get to a vaccine, although that might be mind-bogglingly fast, because I talked about this yesterday,

00:09:44.220 any assumption you make about how long it takes to get a drug approved under a normal situation,

00:09:50.520 I think you have to at least suspend your assumption that it will look like that,

00:09:56.340 and think that maybe this is a big enough issue that we'll take a bigger chance than we normally would.

00:10:02.520 I think that's fair to say.

00:10:04.440 So we'll probably have a vaccine faster than anybody except President Trump predicted.

00:10:12.080 Watch when that happens.

00:10:14.200 Watch what happens when we do get a vaccine, and it's faster than anybody except Trump predicted.

00:10:24.080 What's that going to do?

00:10:26.240 What's that going to do to the world, the collective brain of the world?

00:10:30.400 If I had to bet on it, it's going to be somewhere between where Fauci is sort of, you know, quite reasonably,

00:10:40.800 telling us that best practices would put it maybe a year or 18 months out, and probably closer to 18 months.

00:10:47.700 And the president made happy sounds like, well, it could be just several months,

00:10:52.740 which would be, you know, record-breaking, mind-boggling, impossible, nobody knows how you could do it.

00:11:01.540 I'm going to bet somewhere in the middle, you know, maybe a year.

00:11:07.340 I mean, you know, if we get a vaccine in nine months, which I think all the experts would say would be impossible under normal circumstances,

00:11:17.320 but if we get it in nine months, I'm not going to be surprised.

00:11:21.200 Because the principle in play here is that all of human ingenuity is focused on it.

00:11:29.160 It's not like normal stuff.

00:11:31.120 Every opportunity to cut a corner will be used.

00:11:35.700 So you're not betting on Trump so much as you're betting on the collective talents of the most talented people our country has ever produced.

00:11:46.740 And they're on it.

00:11:49.520 But here's the thing.

00:11:51.160 Who makes this drug?

00:11:52.860 So it's a French company that, you know, is the corporate company.

00:11:57.680 But do you think that they manufacture this in France?

00:12:02.400 I'd like to know that.

00:12:03.760 If somebody can find that out, and I'm not clever enough to dig down to know how a particular company manufactures a particular drug in which factory.

00:12:13.720 I don't know how to find that out.

00:12:14.860 But if there's anybody who can, can you give me an answer to that?

00:12:18.680 Because I'm afraid the answer is going to be China. 0.99

00:12:21.920 Right?

00:12:23.080 Now here's a question for you.

00:12:25.140 Let's say there is a drug.

00:12:26.600 We know it works.

00:12:28.040 Or we're hopeful that it works and the risk management, you know, the threshold has been reached.

00:12:35.020 Meaning that we definitely want to go hard at this drug, even with a little bit of risk.

00:12:41.820 How would we do it?

00:12:42.900 Well, I'm looking at your comments.

00:12:46.720 Somebody said maybe India, maybe China.

00:12:49.660 But let's say it's China.

00:12:52.300 I think that's probably a good guess, right?

00:12:56.600 Now, there's a company that holds the patent.

00:12:59.820 And then it's manufactured in China.

00:13:04.500 Would we produce that drug?

00:13:07.140 Could we?

00:13:08.240 I know we could physically.

00:13:09.900 I believe we could.

00:13:11.160 Could we clone it to its generic?

00:13:13.580 And then mass produce it in this country without benefit of owning the patent or any, you know, copyright?

00:13:24.180 Whatever they've got there.

00:13:25.340 Whatever kind of protection.

00:13:26.380 It would be a patent, I guess.

00:13:28.420 Could we make it?

00:13:29.600 In other words, could we break their patent because it's an emergency?

00:13:33.500 Yes.

00:13:34.780 Yes, we could.

00:13:37.380 Are we going to not make that drug because it would be against the law?

00:13:42.180 No.

00:13:43.200 No, that's not going to happen.

00:13:44.980 If there's a patent law that prevents us from making this drug, we are going to ignore the patent law.

00:13:50.780 And we're going to ignore it like it never even existed.

00:13:52.720 We will ignore it so hard and we'll never know it existed for the emergency.

00:13:58.140 Now, I hope there's nobody in the government who's saying we can't do this because we don't own the patent.

00:14:04.640 You know, please tell me there's nobody so stupid in our government who would hesitate in an emergency because of a patent.

00:14:13.320 I don't think so.

00:14:15.100 Somebody says it's not patented.

00:14:17.900 Hmm.

00:14:19.240 Maybe.

00:14:20.560 Possible.

00:14:21.540 But I don't know.

00:14:22.660 Somebody says it's already generic.

00:14:24.660 And that's, I was looking for that and couldn't find that just before I got on.

00:14:29.020 I was getting close to finding that out.

00:14:32.840 Somebody says what patent law?

00:14:34.920 Yeah.

00:14:35.140 So I guess the question is we're not going to have to worry, I don't think, about any legalities.

00:14:41.160 So it really comes down to a technical question and then like a manufacturing question.

00:14:47.600 How fast could we spin up a, or convert an existing plant to just crank this, presumably the stronger version, the hydroxychloroquine, and just start cranking that stuff out just in case?

00:15:03.380 And do you think, do you think we already know enough to do that?

00:15:08.840 In other words, do we know enough about the possibilities of the drug that even if we're 60% sure, you know, you pick your number, 80% sure that it makes a difference?

00:15:21.200 I'm talking about the scientists, I'm not talking about the scientists, I'm not talking about me being sure, but the scientists.

00:15:25.580 If they're somewhere in that 60% to 80% certain that this could be a useful drug, where is my news reporting on where this is happening?

00:15:38.200 Because you know what would make me feel a lot better, is to read in the, you know, Breitbart or New York Times or whoever does this story, that here's the factory, and they're already converting, and, you know, by the end of the week they'll be cranking this out like crazy, and we don't care about this French company. 0.70

00:16:01.220 It's like they don't exist. We're just going to make this, and we're going to give it out like crazy, just in case.

00:16:09.100 And again, you might want to withhold it from the public, which wouldn't be a bad strategy.

00:16:15.500 It wouldn't be a bad strategy to make sure that, you know, a normal, healthy person can't get it, so you want to limit it to the medical people who can prescribe it.

00:16:25.040 But anyway, this is pretty good.

00:16:27.360 And then there's also this remdesivir, I'm probably saying it wrong, that seems to make a difference as well.

00:16:33.860 So in terms of treatment, we've got some good stuff.

00:16:37.440 Somebody says Australia tested it successfully.

00:16:40.380 Now, that was in vitro.

00:16:42.260 It has been used in real patients, and the reports are that they all got better.

00:16:48.780 But there's such small groups that you can't take that too seriously yet.

00:16:53.220 All right, here are some things in no particular order.

00:17:00.260 I just saw a tweet.

00:17:01.720 I think it's true.

00:17:03.000 You know, you can't believe anything you see in the tweet these days.

00:17:06.560 But somebody was showing pictures of a Hong Kong wrist app, or a wrist thing that goes around your wrist.

00:17:15.880 And if you've been, I think, either traveling or you have the coronavirus, you know, if you're traveling, you're quarantining you.

00:17:23.440 And they put the thing on.

00:17:24.320 It's basically like wearing the, what do you call it when you're at home detention and you've got the ankle bracelet that is digitally monitored?

00:17:35.520 Well, in Hong Kong, it's basically an ankle bracelet that can tell where you are, but it goes on your wrist, and it works with an app on your phone.

00:17:45.400 And apparently, Hong Kong is pretty serious about this stuff.

00:17:49.480 And first of all, where's my app?

00:17:52.060 Are you telling me Hong Kong can spin up an app faster than we can?

00:17:56.360 Come on.

00:17:57.780 We should at least be working on this.

00:17:59.700 And I guess it tells you, you know, you walk around the perimeter inside your house, and then it can map your house, and it knows exactly if you've even walked out the door.

00:18:10.020 And apparently, that level of government monitoring has made a big difference in Hong Kong.

00:18:18.120 And I do think that this is an information problem.

00:18:22.680 You know, we treat it as a health problem, because that's what happens if you don't have information.

00:18:26.820 So it's an information problem first.

00:18:29.920 Who has it, and where are they?

00:18:31.880 That's the information.

00:18:33.240 Who has it, and where are they?

00:18:35.620 And then if you don't do that right, the information problem, then it's a health problem, which is what we're seeing.

00:18:43.480 But thinking of it as an information problem tells you where to put resources for prevention, which is in the technology.

00:18:50.380 Speaking of which, I guess some of the nation's doctors are calling out for a national database.

00:18:59.740 I think it's different than what Google was making.

00:19:02.100 Google was making a database for people to check their symptoms or something.

00:19:06.380 I think that's what that was going to be about.

00:19:07.900 Whereas the doctors are saying, we need a database where all the credentialed physicians who are working on this around the world can share their outcomes and what they tried that worked and what you might not know if you haven't seen it yet.

00:19:22.440 And I thought, that doesn't exist.

00:19:26.180 That doesn't exist already.

00:19:27.880 And now, since there's a national call for it to be built, I assume a whole bunch of people are just going to go off and try to build one on their own.

00:19:38.780 And at some point, somebody official is going to say, we'll take the good one.

00:19:43.440 But I would imagine a whole bunch of people just sat down the minute they saw that and said, I could make that.

00:19:49.420 Because it's basically just an information sharing website.

00:19:53.520 Probably just you could take components that already exist.

00:19:56.200 Just go to your GitHub, grab some code and slap it together.

00:20:02.300 Because it just needs to be bare bones.

00:20:04.120 They just want the information.

00:20:05.260 They don't need it to be pretty.

00:20:07.580 So that's happening.

00:20:09.260 And remember I was telling you that we're at the flat part of the curve of human intelligence.

00:20:17.900 In other words, we've got all the smart people working on it.

00:20:21.200 And then they're going to share information.

00:20:22.860 And it's the point where they're all sharing information that gets you to the elbow.

00:20:28.380 The part where the human capability goes from not very good to, okay, we got this.

00:20:34.880 And it'll go almost straight up after that.

00:20:37.600 So we're sort of approaching the, you know, or I think we're about halfway into the middle of the elbow.

00:20:42.300 And I didn't realize that we were lacking this very basic bit of intelligence gathering, which is the ability for the doctors to efficiently share what they know.

00:20:54.100 But that will be, if I had to guess, we'll probably have that by the end of the week, right?

00:20:59.000 I mean, how hard could it be to build that, really?

00:21:01.000 So by the end of the week, all of these individual spots of genius, and I'm just going to call it that.

00:21:10.660 You know, doctors are pretty smart.

00:21:12.620 Scientists are pretty smart.

00:21:14.060 We're not talking about you.

00:21:15.400 You know, it's not us.

00:21:16.540 I've said this before, but I don't think the average person, and I put myself in that category when I'm talking about what these folks,

00:21:26.140 I don't think the average person can even conceive of how smart the people are who are working on this problem.

00:21:33.780 And there are millions of them, maybe hundreds of thousands that are the real smart ones.

00:21:38.180 But at the moment, apparently they can't share as effectively as they want to.

00:21:42.480 So it's more, you know, if you know somebody, you can share with them, but that's it.

00:21:47.420 So imagine somebody finally said, give us a place to connect all the geniuses.

00:21:55.720 Think about that.

00:21:57.240 Give us one website.

00:21:58.580 We'll connect all the best thinking of the geniuses in one place.

00:22:03.420 That's the middle of the elbow.

00:22:04.940 When you see that, just know that the collective intelligence of this entity that is humanity,

00:22:17.160 because we have two kinds of intelligence.

00:22:18.840 We have individual intelligence, you know, what you and I individually can do.

00:22:23.320 But if we work together, we become a sort of a meta-intelligence, which is the good parts of both of us.

00:22:31.380 The good parts of all of these scientists, the geniuses around the world, have not yet been combined.

00:22:38.880 And it's not just additive.

00:22:41.360 I don't believe that this is a case of, you know, one plus one is two.

00:22:47.480 Once the geniuses are connected, you're going to get a sort of a logarithmic, you know, exponential kind of an increase in what we know that's useful.

00:22:58.920 So, I say this a lot, and I've said it a few times, and you've seen it to be true in some big cases.

00:23:08.200 We can't tell the difference between being close to, you know, everything going wrong,

00:23:16.320 and being right on the edge of everything starting to go right.

00:23:20.700 Now, the moment that this turns, and it will turn, there's going to be a point where the news says one day,

00:23:27.800 hey, it looks like it's stopped getting worse.

00:23:32.920 And that's going to be a good day.

00:23:35.020 That's coming.

00:23:36.520 It's coming guaranteed.

00:23:38.180 I will guarantee you that that day is coming.

00:23:39.960 And once we get a handle on it, we are going to beat this frickin' virus into the ground with an attitude.

00:23:52.280 With an attitude.

00:23:54.420 All right.

00:23:57.800 I don't think any of us should come out of this without a new skill.

00:24:02.600 I'll just put that out there.

00:24:04.240 You know, I talk about skill stacking all the time.

00:24:06.500 But when in your life are you going to have another time where you're forced to stay home for weeks,

00:24:11.960 and you're a little bit bored?

00:24:14.360 Is that ever going to happen again?

00:24:16.580 Ever?

00:24:17.760 Will there ever be a time when you can just say, you know, nothing I can do.

00:24:22.900 I'm just going to stay home for a number of weeks, whatever it is,

00:24:26.640 and I'm going to be a little bit bored?

00:24:28.840 If you don't come out of this with a new skill, you're doing it wrong.

00:24:34.680 You're doing it wrong.

00:24:35.480 You should come out of this stronger, not weaker.

00:24:38.300 You want to come out of this maybe with less income.

00:24:41.800 It's going to happen to a lot of us.

00:24:43.240 It certainly will happen to me.

00:24:44.860 But I'll be okay.

00:24:46.420 And no matter where you are, income-wise, if you take a hit,

00:24:50.820 you can compensate for that in the long run by adding a skill.

00:24:55.660 Sign up for a class.

00:24:57.360 Learn something that's compatible with what you already do

00:25:00.180 that makes you the obvious person to get promoted,

00:25:03.860 the obvious person to get a better job somewhere else.

00:25:06.500 So you can somewhat compensate.

00:25:09.380 It's not a one-for-one,

00:25:11.140 but for many people, it's more than one-for-one.

00:25:13.740 For many people, they'll be able to add a skill,

00:25:16.760 something they always wanted to do,

00:25:18.400 and when things go back to normal, which they will,

00:25:21.880 well, you came back more valuable.

00:25:24.120 So you can work on your net worth by improving your skills.

00:25:29.240 So a lot of people are going to do that.

00:25:33.160 I certainly am.

00:25:35.600 So how about this?

00:25:38.700 Do any of you have a non-complier in your household?

00:25:43.340 Do you have anybody in your house who's too big to physically control,

00:25:47.400 so it's an older kid or your uncle or your grandmother lives there or anything?

00:25:53.860 Do any of you have somebody in your household

00:25:55.540 who's saying that they're not going to shelter in place

00:25:59.360 and they're just going to go about their business?

00:26:01.780 What do you do about that?

00:26:04.100 You can't really kick them out of the house, right?

00:26:09.540 So I'm wondering if that's a widespread problem

00:26:12.620 or if everybody has got things under control in their homes.

00:26:17.820 Anyway, I'll just put that question out there,

00:26:19.440 and then I'll wait for the comments to come in.

00:26:24.040 All right.

00:26:26.500 So let me teach you a relaxation technique.

00:26:31.780 Would you like that?

00:26:33.440 This is an actual hypnosis slash technique.

00:26:39.720 So it's not exclusive to hypnosis.

00:26:42.360 I'm not going to hypnotize you.

00:26:43.740 Don't worry.

00:26:44.660 I might do that later,

00:26:45.820 but it'll be a separate periscope.

00:26:48.500 This is a way to relax yourself.

00:26:52.720 It works every time.

00:26:54.620 All right.

00:26:54.800 So what I'm going to tell you literally will work every time.

00:26:57.980 So you don't have to worry,

00:26:59.020 well, I don't know if that would work for me.

00:27:01.360 No, this just works for everybody all the time.

00:27:03.400 And it goes like this.

00:27:05.500 You should turn off your screens for multiple times during the day.

00:27:11.720 I like to not turn off my phone for more than an hour

00:27:15.800 because I'm paying attention to, you know, developing news,

00:27:20.780 and we need to know what's happening in our community.

00:27:23.260 Did your school get closed?

00:27:24.900 Have the restrictions changed and all that?

00:27:27.260 So I don't like to be out of contact more than an hour,

00:27:31.400 but I'm also a person who's sort of in the front lines

00:27:34.840 of the fight against the virus.

00:27:38.920 For the rest of you,

00:27:40.260 make sure you tune out regularly during the day.

00:27:45.200 I mean, you might have to take an hour here,

00:27:46.920 then another hour there,

00:27:48.180 then another hour night.

00:27:49.560 But here's the technique for relaxing.

00:27:51.340 Some of you have heard of this before.

00:27:53.000 You'll find a comfortable chair.

00:27:55.600 You could do this in bed before you go to sleep.

00:27:58.320 So you could do it as a meditation,

00:28:00.600 just sitting in a chair.

00:28:02.440 And by the way,

00:28:04.140 meditating is mostly just sitting alone with your thoughts

00:28:07.600 for a long period and not falling asleep.

00:28:11.140 That basically is meditation.

00:28:13.460 If you're trying to think of nothing,

00:28:15.260 that's just the dumbest thing anybody ever said

00:28:17.600 about how to practice for something.

00:28:20.020 You can't think of nothing.

00:28:21.380 So if you hear the yogi has accomplished thinking of nothing,

00:28:25.720 no, he hasn't.

00:28:26.900 No, he hasn't.

00:28:28.360 He has not accomplished that.

00:28:31.620 Nobody can do that.

00:28:33.420 So if you could just sit alone

00:28:34.920 and try to quiet your thoughts,

00:28:37.540 and if they drift to, let's say,

00:28:39.640 an unproductive place,

00:28:40.700 just sort of pull it back.

00:28:42.300 But don't turn them off.

00:28:44.580 Just push them back to something harmless.

00:28:47.040 Think about laying on the beach.

00:28:49.180 Think about something that doesn't take any brain power,

00:28:52.140 has no stress.

00:28:53.500 Just think about something pleasant.

00:28:55.180 Think about your pet.

00:28:56.280 Think about something you like.

00:28:58.540 And just sit there for an hour.

00:29:00.680 You will be amazed.

00:29:02.200 Now, on day one,

00:29:03.460 maybe you're not going to get any amazing outcomes from this.

00:29:08.500 But if you keep at it,

00:29:10.180 and you've got a lot of time to keep at it.

00:29:12.080 A lot of people will be meditating experts in a month.

00:29:16.920 If you keep at it,

00:29:18.860 and some would say it's important to inhale through your nose

00:29:23.260 and take a deep breath

00:29:24.500 and exhale through your mouth.

00:29:28.400 But if you just sit quietly

00:29:30.120 in a comfortable position for an hour

00:29:33.920 and try to quiet your thoughts,

00:29:35.960 you're going to have a big, big gain.

00:29:38.360 And it will intensify over time

00:29:40.580 because you'll get better at it

00:29:41.920 and it will become somewhat addictive.

00:29:44.500 There will be a feeling,

00:29:45.860 a physical feeling,

00:29:47.520 when you're done,

00:29:49.260 similar to, let's say,

00:29:50.960 taking a long walk and then being done.

00:29:54.080 You know, yesterday,

00:29:55.000 after I took a walk,

00:29:56.100 I just sat on the couch.

00:29:57.620 Man, did it feel good.

00:29:59.500 It just felt good

00:30:00.780 to be done exercising.

00:30:02.140 You know, you could feel your whole body

00:30:04.980 just, like, glowing in happiness

00:30:06.780 that you're not walking anymore

00:30:07.980 because you're ready to stop.

00:30:12.000 So, that's meditation.

00:30:14.260 That's one way to relax.

00:30:15.260 But here's another way that's more active.

00:30:18.320 Your body is picking up tension.

00:30:21.120 And you're not always consciously aware of it.

00:30:24.420 It might be like, you know,

00:30:25.560 some of us get it in certain places.

00:30:27.780 You might be aware of,

00:30:28.760 oh, my back is all honked up

00:30:30.240 because of the tension.

00:30:31.360 But you also hold it

00:30:32.560 in the rest of your body

00:30:33.440 and it isn't as noticeable.

00:30:35.860 And that's why this trick works.

00:30:37.420 And it goes like this.

00:30:38.840 You sit in a comfortable place

00:30:40.100 or you could be laying in bed

00:30:41.140 and you're trying to get to sleep.

00:30:42.720 Pick one muscle group,

00:30:44.120 let's say your hand.

00:30:45.660 Squeeze it and hold it.

00:30:47.980 Squeeze it and hold it.

00:30:49.380 And you hold it

00:30:50.280 until it's sort of tired.

00:30:52.820 It's exhausted

00:30:53.680 and it doesn't want to hold it anymore.

00:30:55.300 So I'm over-squeezing my hand

00:30:57.180 and now it's starting to be uncomfortable

00:30:59.260 because I'm over-using my muscles.

00:31:01.560 It actually hurts a little bit.

00:31:03.180 Now release it.

00:31:04.960 Release it completely.

00:31:07.380 Then do it with your other hand.

00:31:09.680 Same thing.

00:31:10.640 Squeeze it.

00:31:11.900 Hold it.

00:31:12.760 Until you don't want to do it anymore

00:31:14.220 because it's getting a little painful

00:31:15.640 and it hurts.

00:31:17.000 Then release it.

00:31:18.220 And then you go through

00:31:19.200 the rest of your body

00:31:20.040 for the muscles that you can tense.

00:31:22.900 So if you can tense other muscles,

00:31:24.920 your feet,

00:31:25.760 I like to do hands and feet first.

00:31:28.860 Those,

00:31:29.740 oh my God,

00:31:30.980 don't touch your hand.

00:31:33.480 I like to do hands first,

00:31:35.140 but you can do it with your calf muscles.

00:31:36.960 You can do it with your thighs.

00:31:38.220 You can do it with your glutes.

00:31:39.920 You can do it with your chest muscles.

00:31:41.500 You can do it with your abs.

00:31:42.900 Just move across your body

00:31:44.520 and one by one,

00:31:46.320 squeeze it and release it.

00:31:48.760 By the time you do the cycle,

00:31:51.440 you're going to feel great.

00:31:53.700 It works every time.

00:31:56.400 Works every time.

00:31:57.980 So you don't have to wonder,

00:31:59.680 you know,

00:31:59.900 am I doing it right?

00:32:01.280 Will this work for me?

00:32:02.920 No.

00:32:03.440 You do those things

00:32:04.300 and you will be more relaxed.

00:32:05.980 And if you do it every day,

00:32:07.400 it gets easier.

00:32:08.380 So these are real good techniques.

00:32:10.980 The other thing I suggest

00:32:12.160 is watching comedy

00:32:13.240 and lots of it.

00:32:14.800 Go to YouTube.

00:32:15.360 Look for comedians you like.

00:32:18.840 I was just watching Bill Burr yesterday.

00:32:22.280 You know,

00:32:22.780 if you get,

00:32:23.440 once you find one you like,

00:32:25.140 YouTube will suggest other ones.

00:32:27.100 I can listen to Bill Burr

00:32:28.480 talk all day long.

00:32:31.140 Almost everything he says

00:32:32.360 sounds funny.

00:32:33.460 He had Norm Macdonald,

00:32:34.600 great choice,

00:32:35.420 one of the best stand-ups

00:32:36.600 of all time.

00:32:37.740 And,

00:32:38.620 somebody says,

00:32:41.060 you are using your hypnosis technique.

00:32:42.760 Let me make a distinction.

00:32:46.540 Hypnosis is generally

00:32:47.580 when a person is in the room

00:32:49.780 and you're working with them

00:32:50.960 and you have a common,

00:32:52.040 you know,

00:32:52.860 a common vision

00:32:53.760 of where you want to go,

00:32:54.880 you're working on a specific thing,

00:32:57.440 et cetera.

00:32:57.920 So,

00:32:58.540 hypnosis is,

00:33:00.480 you know,

00:33:00.860 in the specific sense

00:33:02.180 is just two people

00:33:03.200 working together.

00:33:04.400 And you have to be able to,

00:33:05.320 the hypnotist has to be able

00:33:06.900 to see the response

00:33:08.780 in real time.

00:33:10.640 So,

00:33:10.880 as you're doing the induction,

00:33:12.280 you're watching,

00:33:12.960 you're watching the person's response

00:33:14.620 and you're looking for micro changes.

00:33:16.800 So,

00:33:16.960 you're looking for changes

00:33:17.680 in breathing,

00:33:18.580 changes in muscle tone,

00:33:20.100 changes in,

00:33:20.940 even,

00:33:22.240 you know,

00:33:23.520 blushing,

00:33:24.240 et cetera.

00:33:24.960 So,

00:33:25.400 you're looking for very small changes

00:33:26.760 and then you're,

00:33:27.400 you're adapting your technique

00:33:28.800 as you go

00:33:29.640 because you're saying,

00:33:30.400 oh,

00:33:30.480 that worked,

00:33:31.040 I'll do more of that.

00:33:32.000 No,

00:33:32.160 that didn't seem to work,

00:33:33.040 I'll do less of that.

00:33:33.900 So,

00:33:34.920 you can't do that

00:33:35.700 in a mass setting.

00:33:38.480 But,

00:33:38.940 that said,

00:33:40.220 all of the,

00:33:40.920 the knowledge and technique

00:33:42.760 of hypnosis

00:33:43.400 does become just part

00:33:44.760 of your communication stack.

00:33:47.120 So,

00:33:47.840 if you say,

00:33:48.700 am I using my hypnosis technique

00:33:51.140 when I'm talking to you?

00:33:52.440 The answer is always yes.

00:33:55.120 But not with the intention

00:33:56.520 of,

00:33:57.940 you know,

00:33:58.200 putting you into a trance

00:33:59.200 or anything.

00:33:59.660 It's only the intention of,

00:34:01.020 I know what is

00:34:01.700 likely to be persuasive.

00:34:04.700 And I know what is

00:34:05.540 likely not to be.

00:34:06.820 So,

00:34:07.040 I do things that are persuasive.

00:34:08.520 That's not exactly hypnosis.

00:34:09.920 That's just communicating effectively.

00:34:13.520 Do you use self-hypnosis?

00:34:14.920 I do.

00:34:15.940 Yeah,

00:34:16.560 you know,

00:34:17.120 when I took hypnosis class,

00:34:19.200 what was it,

00:34:20.580 40 years ago now?

00:34:23.240 One of the things

00:34:24.060 that the hypnosis instructor did

00:34:26.020 was,

00:34:27.600 he hypnotized all of us

00:34:29.640 to be able to hypnotize ourselves

00:34:32.180 so that we could do self-hypnosis

00:34:34.160 and put ourselves

00:34:35.260 into a,

00:34:35.800 into a deep relaxation.

00:34:38.760 So,

00:34:39.020 40 years later,

00:34:39.920 I can still do it

00:34:40.900 and do it instantly

00:34:42.360 and it's just like the first day.

00:34:44.920 Now,

00:34:45.500 why does it last 40 years?

00:34:47.960 It lasts 40 years

00:34:49.060 because the hypnotist

00:34:50.080 created a simple association

00:34:51.560 and then I reinforced it.

00:34:54.500 Had I not reinforced it,

00:34:55.680 it wouldn't,

00:34:56.100 it wouldn't have lasted.

00:34:57.320 And the simple association

00:34:58.680 was this.

00:34:59.380 we would hear the hypnotist's voice

00:35:01.700 and he would,

00:35:03.460 you know,

00:35:03.800 just go through

00:35:04.360 a relaxation routine

00:35:05.520 and we would feel relaxed.

00:35:07.660 So,

00:35:08.240 we associated his voice,

00:35:09.980 which I can still hear

00:35:11.160 just like it's in the room,

00:35:13.060 we associated his voice

00:35:14.800 with our relaxation.

00:35:17.860 Most of life

00:35:18.900 is just that,

00:35:20.400 associating two things

00:35:21.820 until the qualities

00:35:22.940 of one thing

00:35:23.780 trigger

00:35:24.760 or conflate

00:35:25.720 with the other thing.

00:35:26.880 If you thought of

00:35:27.740 persuasion

00:35:29.800 and hypnosis

00:35:30.400 as mostly that,

00:35:32.240 you'd be pretty close.

00:35:33.620 All right?

00:35:34.300 If you're trying

00:35:35.060 to change somebody's mind

00:35:36.140 or change somebody's behavior,

00:35:37.700 it's usually about

00:35:38.880 matching

00:35:39.440 one feeling

00:35:40.900 to another

00:35:41.380 and then chaining

00:35:42.220 them together

00:35:42.880 until you've created

00:35:44.320 a,

00:35:44.740 you know,

00:35:45.460 a sort of a

00:35:46.100 thoughtless

00:35:46.920 reflex in a person.

00:35:49.160 Because a lot of what we do

00:35:50.280 is thoughtless reflex

00:35:51.380 and usually they're bad ones.

00:35:52.940 Well,

00:35:53.360 by the time you seek help,

00:35:54.620 it's a bad one.

00:35:55.580 There could be good ones.

00:35:57.740 So somebody says,

00:36:01.180 I don't understand

00:36:01.960 how anyone

00:36:02.660 could be hypnotized.

00:36:07.400 The reason

00:36:08.420 you don't understand it

00:36:09.640 is that you don't

00:36:10.440 understand what it is

00:36:11.520 to be hypnotized.

00:36:13.940 So let me explain that.

00:36:16.100 So in a,

00:36:17.000 let's say,

00:36:17.680 a setting

00:36:18.080 with an actual hypnotist,

00:36:19.480 somebody who,

00:36:20.000 you know,

00:36:20.220 you're paying money

00:36:20.920 and you went to a hypnotist.

00:36:22.640 In that setting,

00:36:23.780 hypnosis works

00:36:25.520 on every person

00:36:26.680 who wants it to work.

00:36:29.000 So the key is

00:36:30.080 that you have to want it.

00:36:32.160 You can't,

00:36:32.960 there's no getting around that.

00:36:34.700 Right?

00:36:34.980 If,

00:36:35.340 if the subject

00:36:36.180 is sitting in the chair

00:36:37.360 saying,

00:36:37.720 watch me resist this,

00:36:39.300 I can't be controlled,

00:36:41.080 I will defeat this hypnotist

00:36:42.760 with my willpower,

00:36:44.440 well,

00:36:44.760 then they can.

00:36:45.860 Guess what?

00:36:46.360 That's,

00:36:46.560 that's really easy.

00:36:48.020 You know,

00:36:48.320 ignoring the hypnotist

00:36:49.580 is about the easiest thing

00:36:50.680 you could possibly do.

00:36:51.460 You just,

00:36:52.140 just don't care.

00:36:53.320 Don't pay attention.

00:36:54.280 Don't play along.

00:36:55.420 There's no risk

00:36:56.140 of being hypnotized.

00:36:57.060 It's the easiest thing

00:36:57.720 in the world.

00:36:58.960 Likewise,

00:37:00.280 you could be

00:37:01.000 in a deep hypnotic,

00:37:03.360 they call it a trance.

00:37:04.660 I'm not sure you can define

00:37:05.740 what a trance is,

00:37:06.680 but,

00:37:06.940 you know,

00:37:07.120 just somebody sitting quietly

00:37:08.160 and,

00:37:08.620 and they're,

00:37:09.620 they're sort of in sync

00:37:10.700 with the hypnotist.

00:37:11.720 So you call that a trance,

00:37:13.060 but it's hard to define

00:37:14.000 what a trance is.

00:37:15.620 That person,

00:37:16.600 at any point,

00:37:18.460 can just say,

00:37:19.440 oh,

00:37:19.660 I'm late for something

00:37:21.800 and just get up

00:37:23.120 and walk out.

00:37:25.260 They can.

00:37:26.280 There's nothing

00:37:26.940 that stops you.

00:37:27.900 So if you're saying,

00:37:29.060 I don't know how

00:37:29.820 I could be hypnotized

00:37:30.900 because I could,

00:37:32.140 I would never do something

00:37:33.360 that I didn't want to do.

00:37:35.520 That's how most people

00:37:36.400 think of hypnosis.

00:37:37.700 There's nothing like that.

00:37:39.500 There's no point

00:37:40.640 at which a hypnosis session

00:37:42.580 would involve,

00:37:43.940 be involved,

00:37:44.660 you'd be doing something

00:37:45.380 you didn't want to do.

00:37:46.980 Nobody would do that.

00:37:47.960 You only do things

00:37:49.480 you want to do.

00:37:51.100 And the,

00:37:51.500 and if you want to do it,

00:37:52.740 you're going to be open

00:37:53.620 to associating it

00:37:54.620 with something else.

00:37:55.980 So,

00:37:56.720 back to my example

00:37:57.800 of self,

00:37:58.300 self-hypnosis.

00:37:59.320 When I do self-hypnosis,

00:38:00.660 I can count from,

00:38:02.020 um,

00:38:02.920 one to twenty,

00:38:04.500 but I don't count it

00:38:05.400 in my own voice.

00:38:08.120 Sorry.

00:38:09.520 I count from one to twenty,

00:38:11.580 but in the voice

00:38:12.560 of the hypnotist

00:38:13.480 who I assume

00:38:14.320 has been dead

00:38:14.880 for decades,

00:38:16.100 but I can still hear it.

00:38:17.300 And the association

00:38:18.940 triggers me

00:38:19.720 into relaxation.

00:38:20.880 It's,

00:38:20.960 it's,

00:38:21.540 it's basically instant.

00:38:23.580 So,

00:38:24.240 if you want to use

00:38:25.080 self-hypnosis,

00:38:26.800 think of it this way.

00:38:29.200 Self-hypnosis

00:38:30.020 is nothing

00:38:30.800 but associating

00:38:32.040 two different things.

00:38:34.780 So,

00:38:35.440 here,

00:38:35.580 here would be

00:38:36.100 self-hypnosis.

00:38:37.820 Um,

00:38:38.320 somebody says,

00:38:39.000 you sick,

00:38:39.420 bro?

00:38:39.700 No,

00:38:40.000 I,

00:38:40.520 I just always have a,

00:38:41.860 you know,

00:38:43.140 congestion if I,

00:38:44.480 uh,

00:38:45.420 if I'm talking too much.

00:38:46.520 So,

00:38:47.340 I don't have sore throat,

00:38:48.360 I don't have any,

00:38:49.000 don't have any,

00:38:49.940 uh,

00:38:50.760 I don't have any

00:38:51.400 illness symptoms at all.

00:38:52.460 Actually,

00:38:52.720 I'm feeling amazing

00:38:53.580 because I'm doing

00:38:54.520 all kinds of exercise

00:38:55.480 and eating right

00:38:56.240 and getting a lot of sleep.

00:38:57.940 Honestly,

00:38:58.420 I've never felt better.

00:38:59.440 That's not a joke.

00:39:00.820 In terms of my physical health

00:39:02.700 and vitality,

00:39:03.520 I've never felt better.

00:39:05.100 I'm in,

00:39:05.700 I'm in really good shape

00:39:06.660 right now

00:39:07.000 and I hope the rest of you

00:39:07.900 are taking this seriously

00:39:09.500 as well.

00:39:11.420 You know,

00:39:11.880 my goal,

00:39:12.600 quite simply,

00:39:13.380 is,

00:39:14.860 you know,

00:39:15.320 I'm going to try

00:39:16.220 to delay being

00:39:17.520 exposed to it

00:39:18.680 but if it happens

00:39:20.740 or when it happens,

00:39:21.720 I want to make sure

00:39:22.520 I'm not one of the people

00:39:23.680 who needs a hospital bed.

00:39:25.880 So,

00:39:26.820 you know,

00:39:27.200 my,

00:39:27.760 my,

00:39:28.800 uh,

00:39:28.980 willingness to stay

00:39:30.080 as healthy as I can

00:39:31.220 is partly for myself.

00:39:32.440 Well,

00:39:32.620 it's a lot for myself,

00:39:33.400 of course,

00:39:33.900 but there's a,

00:39:34.780 there's a social element

00:39:36.380 to this,

00:39:36.920 you know.

00:39:37.340 So,

00:39:37.620 if I can,

00:39:38.020 if I can stay healthy enough

00:39:39.260 and away from the virus

00:39:40.840 so that I don't take up

00:39:42.180 any medical resources,

00:39:44.320 I'm going to feel

00:39:45.400 pretty good about myself.

00:39:46.620 Honestly.

00:39:47.480 I'm going to feel like

00:39:48.380 I,

00:39:48.740 I went through the virus war

00:39:50.480 and I did my part

00:39:51.840 and,

00:39:52.520 you know,

00:39:52.640 it was hard

00:39:53.180 but,

00:39:54.300 but I made it work

00:39:55.600 for my little corner

00:39:56.600 of the world

00:39:57.100 and I hope the rest of you

00:39:58.140 are doing the same.

00:39:59.300 All right.

00:39:59.680 I know the hypnosis

00:40:00.740 topic is fun

00:40:02.740 so I'm going to talk

00:40:03.380 about it some more

00:40:04.240 because it just gets

00:40:05.200 your mind off of stuff,

00:40:06.140 right?

00:40:06.620 So,

00:40:07.060 back to my point.

00:40:08.440 Self-hypnosis,

00:40:09.280 if you simply think about it

00:40:10.940 as setting up associations,

00:40:12.800 you can already do it.

00:40:14.660 It really is that easy.

00:40:16.000 So,

00:40:16.620 for example,

00:40:18.040 let's say you set up

00:40:19.160 a little area

00:40:20.060 somewhere in your house

00:40:21.220 where there was a place

00:40:22.540 you could comfortably sit

00:40:23.700 and maybe it's not

00:40:25.140 the place you sit

00:40:25.860 for other things.

00:40:27.220 Very important.

00:40:28.420 Remember,

00:40:29.020 self-hypnosis

00:40:29.600 is about associating

00:40:30.840 two things.

00:40:32.020 If you pick a place

00:40:33.080 in your house

00:40:34.140 that you use

00:40:35.320 for other stuff,

00:40:36.900 such as your bed,

00:40:38.260 don't do it there.

00:40:39.660 Because bed

00:40:40.160 is other stuff.

00:40:41.860 Don't do it

00:40:42.480 in that chair

00:40:43.000 that you always read

00:40:43.940 because that's

00:40:44.900 your reading chair.

00:40:46.040 Don't do it

00:40:46.680 in your chair

00:40:47.400 where you do work.

00:40:48.860 That's your work chair.

00:40:50.540 Find a chair

00:40:51.300 that hasn't been

00:40:52.580 used for anything.

00:40:53.780 It's a place

00:40:54.180 you just don't sit.

00:40:55.420 Get a new chair.

00:40:56.220 Put a pillow

00:40:56.580 on the floor.

00:40:58.160 Find a place

00:40:58.920 that has no

00:40:59.840 prior association.

00:41:02.140 You want to find

00:41:02.920 a place

00:41:03.300 with no prior association.

00:41:05.700 Do you know

00:41:06.100 why it works so well

00:41:07.020 when you go

00:41:07.440 to a hypnotist's office?

00:41:09.600 And sit

00:41:10.220 in the hypnotist's chair?

00:41:11.960 One of the reasons

00:41:12.880 that works better

00:41:13.860 than anything

00:41:15.060 you could do

00:41:15.660 in your own environment

00:41:16.540 is that you've never

00:41:17.460 been in that chair before.

00:41:19.240 And you're entering

00:41:20.140 an environment

00:41:20.900 that's fresh.

00:41:23.300 So whatever associations

00:41:24.620 are formed

00:41:25.380 once you enter

00:41:26.560 the hypnotist's office

00:41:27.660 are formed

00:41:29.040 consciously

00:41:29.700 by the hypnotist.

00:41:30.900 And it happens

00:41:31.900 from the moment

00:41:32.460 you walk in

00:41:33.140 and shake hands

00:41:34.620 back in the old days 0.52

00:41:35.660 or in today's world.

00:41:37.340 Hi!

00:41:38.380 I'm over here.

00:41:39.940 But from the moment

00:41:40.800 you walk in

00:41:41.540 the hypnotist

00:41:42.520 is starting

00:41:43.120 the hypnosis.

00:41:45.060 Now,

00:41:45.300 and the hypnotist

00:41:45.840 will tell you this.

00:41:47.080 You know,

00:41:47.360 an ethical hypnotist

00:41:48.740 will tell you

00:41:49.340 that the conversation

00:41:50.880 from hello

00:41:51.680 is part of the process.

00:41:54.160 Now the first part

00:41:55.020 of the process

00:41:55.480 where you're just talking

00:41:56.480 and you think

00:41:57.080 you're having

00:41:57.440 a conversation

00:41:58.180 and you're just talking

00:41:59.500 about what's going

00:42:00.060 to happen next.

00:42:01.160 You think that's

00:42:01.960 not the hypnosis

00:42:02.720 but it's part

00:42:03.780 of the process.

00:42:05.180 And that process

00:42:05.760 is building credibility

00:42:07.280 and making you relax

00:42:09.380 and making you understand

00:42:10.440 what's happening

00:42:11.060 and building

00:42:12.120 an expectation

00:42:12.980 that it's going

00:42:14.200 to happen.

00:42:15.140 So the first part

00:42:16.140 is entirely about

00:42:17.540 building the expectation

00:42:19.480 in your mind

00:42:20.460 that this will work

00:42:22.140 and it's going

00:42:23.140 to happen in a minute.

00:42:24.480 If you don't believe

00:42:25.560 it's going to work

00:42:26.240 for you

00:42:27.500 you're not

00:42:28.420 in the right frame

00:42:29.180 of mind.

00:42:30.240 So the hypnotist

00:42:31.020 will often

00:42:31.860 dress well

00:42:32.800 and maybe have a suit

00:42:33.900 and we're actually

00:42:35.120 taught this.

00:42:35.940 Put a degree

00:42:37.360 on the wall.

00:42:38.780 So you're creating

00:42:39.420 an environment

00:42:39.960 where the person

00:42:40.660 walks in

00:42:41.240 and they're already

00:42:42.320 primed

00:42:43.100 because they've

00:42:44.660 decided they want

00:42:45.460 this before they

00:42:46.160 walk in the door.

00:42:47.540 Once they walk in

00:42:48.520 this is not about

00:42:49.440 the wanting anymore.

00:42:51.040 This is about

00:42:51.640 the belief.

00:42:52.720 So it starts with

00:42:53.340 wanting to be part

00:42:54.200 of the process.

00:42:55.240 You can't avoid that.

00:42:56.500 This is only for

00:42:57.320 willing people.

00:42:58.700 Secondly,

00:42:59.280 they walk into

00:42:59.820 the hypnotist's office

00:43:00.700 and now they're

00:43:01.620 being primed.

00:43:02.920 You're just having

00:43:03.460 a conversation.

00:43:04.380 The hypnotist is saying

00:43:05.240 in a moment

00:43:06.260 I'll ask you to relax.

00:43:08.220 This is what will happen.

00:43:09.560 This is what you'll feel.

00:43:11.060 This is what to expect.

00:43:12.580 I do this all the time.

00:43:14.220 You're my millionth person.

00:43:16.320 Yeah, it'll totally

00:43:16.920 work with you.

00:43:18.040 I'm an expert on this.

00:43:19.920 And your mind

00:43:20.840 by this point

00:43:21.540 remember you wanted this.

00:43:22.760 You're so primed.

00:43:25.300 And the priming

00:43:26.060 is a really big part

00:43:27.860 of the process.

00:43:29.320 If you haven't

00:43:29.960 primed people right

00:43:31.020 it doesn't work.

00:43:32.240 Or it doesn't work

00:43:33.200 as well.

00:43:35.520 So that's the first thing.

00:43:37.560 Alright, so

00:43:37.940 back to you.

00:43:39.220 You found a place

00:43:40.280 in your house

00:43:40.840 that isn't used

00:43:42.520 for anything else.

00:43:43.360 Now you've recreated

00:43:44.420 in a small way

00:43:45.480 what the hypnotist's office

00:43:47.860 does.

00:43:48.400 A fresh environment.

00:43:50.120 Alright, it has

00:43:50.700 no associations.

00:43:52.040 So you've got

00:43:52.400 your little fresh environment

00:43:53.560 your chair, your seat,

00:43:54.720 your pillow,

00:43:55.300 the place that you're

00:43:55.960 only going to do this.

00:43:58.020 And then you say

00:43:58.860 this is my meditation place.

00:44:01.400 Oh, what did I do there?

00:44:03.200 Did I just conflate

00:44:04.320 meditation

00:44:05.100 with hypnosis

00:44:07.000 and self-hypnosis?

00:44:08.220 Yes, I did.

00:44:09.400 Because they're not

00:44:10.040 that different.

00:44:11.060 The goal of

00:44:12.000 just meditating

00:44:13.280 is being able

00:44:15.260 to quickly

00:44:15.860 put yourself

00:44:16.500 in a relaxed state.

00:44:18.960 The goal

00:44:19.760 of self-hypnosis

00:44:20.620 usually

00:44:21.560 is to do the same.

00:44:23.920 And they look

00:44:24.820 almost the same.

00:44:27.700 So all you've got to do

00:44:28.760 is find your little place

00:44:30.140 do your little tricks

00:44:31.920 of squeezing your muscles

00:44:33.020 if you have to do it

00:44:33.920 the first time.

00:44:35.100 Eventually

00:44:35.540 let me explain this

00:44:38.340 so you can really see

00:44:39.120 how this works.

00:44:39.700 This is just a perfect example.

00:44:42.000 On day one

00:44:42.840 you sit in your fresh

00:44:43.780 little environment

00:44:44.440 with no prior associations

00:44:45.760 and you can't relax.

00:44:48.580 You're tense.

00:44:49.140 You're thinking about life.

00:44:50.740 Do the muscle thing.

00:44:51.720 One muscle at a time

00:44:52.480 one muscle at a time.

00:44:53.540 Works every time.

00:44:54.660 You don't have to wonder

00:44:55.480 if it'll work.

00:44:56.060 It'll work.

00:44:57.820 Then

00:44:58.220 do that

00:44:59.140 every day for a week.

00:45:01.080 What happens

00:45:01.900 on the eighth day?

00:45:03.440 You go to your little

00:45:04.220 special place

00:45:05.040 and you sit down

00:45:06.200 and suddenly

00:45:07.780 you don't have to do

00:45:09.720 the muscle squeezing.

00:45:10.560 because the association

00:45:13.060 of you sitting

00:45:14.140 on the pillow

00:45:14.800 and being super relaxed

00:45:16.860 now has formed

00:45:18.380 an association

00:45:19.600 in your mind

00:45:20.380 if you do it enough.

00:45:21.860 It doesn't take long.

00:45:22.900 A week

00:45:23.300 would be fine

00:45:24.140 and it gets stronger

00:45:25.380 as you go.

00:45:26.680 Now you can

00:45:27.240 disband the muscle squeezing

00:45:29.140 because as soon as

00:45:29.800 you sit there

00:45:30.320 you just say

00:45:31.400 I'm in my place.

00:45:33.640 Boom.

00:45:34.880 Right into it.

00:45:36.540 You've got an hour

00:45:37.420 of serious pleasure.

00:45:40.440 Now

00:45:40.640 I

00:45:42.360 I hate to do this.

00:45:46.360 Well

00:45:46.840 maybe I won't.

00:45:47.920 I'm going to save that.

00:45:49.360 I'm going to save that.

00:45:50.660 I might bring on

00:45:51.580 a special guest

00:45:52.440 in the future

00:45:53.120 to give you

00:45:54.240 a little more

00:45:54.840 tips on

00:45:56.020 meditation.

00:45:58.760 Somebody that

00:45:59.660 I've been

00:46:00.880 I've been reading

00:46:02.000 and listening to people

00:46:02.880 talk about meditation

00:46:03.920 for

00:46:04.560 forever

00:46:06.300 basically

00:46:06.980 and

00:46:08.060 they're all

00:46:09.620 really bad

00:46:10.480 at explaining things

00:46:11.540 and what I mean is

00:46:13.400 when people say

00:46:14.500 you know

00:46:14.880 how do you

00:46:15.320 meditate

00:46:15.620 they say things like

00:46:17.460 well clear your mind

00:46:18.600 and use this mantra

00:46:20.180 and whatever

00:46:20.680 and I always say to myself

00:46:22.340 I don't really get that.

00:46:24.840 You know

00:46:24.980 can you explain it better?

00:46:27.100 Maybe it's the way

00:46:27.780 you're explaining it.

00:46:29.180 Is there something

00:46:29.880 I'm missing?

00:46:31.260 It feels like

00:46:32.100 incomplete.

00:46:32.800 But yes

00:46:35.660 somebody already guessed

00:46:37.100 in the comments.

00:46:39.040 Yeah

00:46:39.160 so Naval

00:46:40.060 Ravikant

00:46:41.300 I was just

00:46:43.620 talking to him

00:46:44.320 the other day

00:46:44.840 and he

00:46:45.980 explained to me

00:46:47.060 meditation

00:46:49.300 in a way

00:46:49.940 that's at least

00:46:50.720 a little bit close

00:46:51.500 to the way

00:46:51.880 I explained it

00:46:52.540 in a way

00:46:53.300 I'd never heard before

00:46:54.140 but he can do

00:46:55.880 a better job

00:46:56.520 of completing

00:46:57.360 this picture

00:46:57.920 so maybe someday

00:46:58.980 we'll ask him

00:47:00.400 to do that

00:47:00.900 and if he's done it

00:47:02.120 independently

00:47:02.700 maybe I can find it.

00:47:06.300 So

00:47:06.460 somebody says

00:47:09.320 it's the disconnecting

00:47:10.460 your body

00:47:11.000 from your mind.

00:47:13.800 Yeah

00:47:14.240 but you know

00:47:15.160 the best way

00:47:15.680 to disconnect

00:47:16.180 your body

00:47:16.700 from your mind

00:47:17.360 if you're not good

00:47:18.080 at it already

00:47:18.680 is that

00:47:19.260 muscle squeezing trick

00:47:20.820 it will work

00:47:21.560 every time.

00:47:25.500 Somebody said

00:47:26.180 I was listening

00:47:26.800 the other day

00:47:27.560 to Dr. Drew

00:47:28.180 and I think

00:47:28.540 your voice

00:47:29.720 that is soothing.

00:47:32.840 Well

00:47:33.320 let me teach you

00:47:34.740 something about voice.

00:47:37.460 Why not?

00:47:39.000 You know

00:47:39.640 I'm going to make it

00:47:40.360 my mission

00:47:40.860 that at least

00:47:42.100 the people

00:47:42.600 who watch

00:47:43.080 my periscopes

00:47:43.980 are going to

00:47:44.520 leave this crisis

00:47:45.360 smarter

00:47:45.920 like a lot smarter

00:47:47.500 maybe healthier too

00:47:48.960 then

00:47:49.740 why not?

00:47:51.120 We can

00:47:51.820 might as well.

00:47:56.220 What was some

00:47:57.060 I forgot what

00:47:57.980 I was going to

00:47:58.280 talk about there.

00:47:59.720 It wasn't

00:48:00.920 hypnosis

00:48:01.560 oh voice

00:48:03.460 that's it.

00:48:04.740 So

00:48:04.960 if you watch

00:48:06.140 there's a movie

00:48:06.760 called

00:48:07.120 Network

00:48:08.180 is that what

00:48:09.060 it's called

00:48:09.360 an old movie

00:48:10.120 about

00:48:11.140 TV news people

00:48:13.100 and

00:48:14.660 one of the

00:48:15.240 characters

00:48:15.640 was giving a tip

00:48:17.140 to somebody

00:48:18.060 who was less

00:48:18.820 good at being

00:48:19.700 on air

00:48:20.320 on the news

00:48:20.880 and it's a tip

00:48:22.260 I'd never heard

00:48:22.880 before

00:48:23.260 and when I heard

00:48:24.360 it I thought

00:48:24.840 well that must be

00:48:25.540 just

00:48:25.780 maybe that's

00:48:26.840 just a movie

00:48:27.520 thing.

00:48:27.920 that's not

00:48:29.100 something that

00:48:29.640 a real

00:48:30.040 newscaster

00:48:30.780 does

00:48:31.240 right?

00:48:31.860 I thought

00:48:32.220 well that

00:48:33.340 can't be a

00:48:33.760 thing

00:48:33.980 and here

00:48:34.780 was what

00:48:35.620 the character

00:48:36.280 I think it

00:48:36.780 was William

00:48:37.260 Hurt

00:48:37.560 said in the

00:48:38.680 movie

00:48:38.880 he was

00:48:39.260 explaining how

00:48:39.940 to read

00:48:40.440 the news

00:48:40.900 he said

00:48:42.000 you should

00:48:42.700 randomly

00:48:44.140 emphasize

00:48:44.940 words

00:48:45.660 and I

00:48:47.220 thought

00:48:47.440 well

00:48:48.120 that doesn't

00:48:49.820 make sense

00:48:50.360 does it?

00:48:51.320 Does it

00:48:51.700 make sense

00:48:52.180 that if you're

00:48:52.720 reading off the

00:48:53.380 teleprompter

00:48:54.000 that you

00:48:55.040 would just

00:48:55.320 on your

00:48:55.660 own

00:48:55.980 you would

00:48:56.600 just

00:48:56.760 randomly

00:48:57.360 emphasize

00:48:58.140 a word

00:48:58.680 doesn't

00:49:00.160 it make

00:49:00.380 more sense

00:49:01.000 that you

00:49:01.920 would

00:49:02.060 emphasize

00:49:02.420 the important

00:49:03.140 words

00:49:03.540 right?

00:49:04.840 I mean

00:49:05.120 common sense

00:49:05.780 and then

00:49:07.060 you watch

00:49:07.840 him do it

00:49:08.400 and he's

00:49:09.220 clearly just

00:49:09.880 emphasizing

00:49:10.460 random words

00:49:11.420 and you

00:49:12.420 watch it

00:49:12.780 and you

00:49:12.940 go

00:49:13.160 why does

00:49:15.020 that sound

00:49:15.440 right?

00:49:16.920 why does

00:49:17.340 that sound

00:49:17.820 right?

00:49:19.060 so what

00:49:19.840 you're hearing

00:49:20.360 in my

00:49:21.040 vocal

00:49:22.200 presentation

00:49:22.720 is that

00:49:23.940 technique

00:49:24.520 it's a

00:49:25.320 technique

00:49:25.580 I learned

00:49:26.100 from that

00:49:26.540 movie

00:49:26.880 but didn't

00:49:27.700 believe it

00:49:28.300 you know

00:49:29.100 it took me

00:49:29.580 years

00:49:30.320 before I

00:49:31.480 figured out

00:49:31.960 that's a

00:49:32.720 real technique

00:49:33.720 that that's

00:49:34.600 a thing

00:49:34.940 and watch

00:49:36.520 me do it

00:49:36.860 right now

00:49:37.280 so you're

00:49:38.000 actually watching

00:49:38.640 it happen

00:49:39.020 in real time

00:49:39.640 so you know

00:49:40.180 but watch

00:49:41.520 watch the

00:49:43.260 pace

00:49:44.080 and the

00:49:45.640 the variation

00:49:46.800 that you can

00:49:48.240 tell I'm

00:49:48.600 putting into

00:49:49.000 it

00:49:49.280 now that

00:49:49.960 the change

00:49:50.420 in tone

00:49:51.020 helps a

00:49:51.760 little bit

00:49:52.160 so sometimes

00:49:53.300 I'm down

00:49:53.680 here

00:49:53.960 sometimes

00:49:54.640 I'm up

00:49:55.080 here

00:49:55.280 and I

00:49:55.800 make sure

00:49:56.140 that I

00:49:56.540 vary it

00:49:57.220 so that

00:49:58.060 the varying

00:49:58.780 of the

00:49:59.240 tone

00:49:59.540 is both

00:50:00.320 intentional

00:50:00.900 and it's

00:50:02.400 technique

00:50:02.960 but even

00:50:04.520 more than

00:50:04.900 that

00:50:05.140 is

00:50:05.600 the

00:50:06.840 spacing

00:50:07.400 of words

00:50:08.120 watch

00:50:10.020 these

00:50:10.720 two

00:50:11.100 examples

00:50:11.540 I'll just

00:50:11.940 read something

00:50:12.480 off my

00:50:12.920 page

00:50:13.320 randomly

00:50:13.900 oh

00:50:16.800 well

00:50:17.200 I'm going

00:50:19.340 to read

00:50:19.600 my own

00:50:20.040 tweet

00:50:20.400 I forgot

00:50:21.280 I was

00:50:21.600 going to

00:50:21.800 talk about

00:50:22.220 this

00:50:22.520 and it's

00:50:23.240 about

00:50:23.480 the fact

00:50:23.980 do you

00:50:24.980 remember

00:50:25.300 do you

00:50:26.120 remember

00:50:26.380 early on

00:50:27.040 I told

00:50:27.440 you when

00:50:27.820 there was

00:50:28.080 a story

00:50:28.460 about the

00:50:29.000 White House

00:50:29.560 office

00:50:30.020 pandemic

00:50:31.320 the pandemic

00:50:33.060 office got

00:50:34.180 closed

00:50:34.720 and so

00:50:35.640 President Trump

00:50:36.240 was getting

00:50:36.640 heat

00:50:37.000 because he

00:50:37.600 closed

00:50:38.160 the so-called

00:50:38.960 pandemic

00:50:39.580 office

00:50:40.280 before the

00:50:41.960 pandemic

00:50:42.360 and everybody

00:50:43.980 said well

00:50:44.420 that sounds

00:50:44.880 bad

00:50:45.240 if you have

00:50:46.100 a pandemic

00:50:46.720 office

00:50:47.160 and you

00:50:47.580 close it

00:50:48.120 before the

00:50:48.560 pandemic

00:50:49.000 and then

00:50:49.460 you need

00:50:49.800 it

00:50:49.940 well that's

00:50:50.380 pretty bad

00:50:50.940 and the

00:50:52.520 person who

00:50:52.980 ran that

00:50:53.400 office

00:50:53.800 complained

00:50:54.360 and said

00:50:54.760 yeah

00:50:55.100 he closed

00:50:56.320 my department

00:50:56.980 sure wish

00:50:58.040 that department

00:50:58.540 was here

00:51:00.100 what did I

00:51:01.280 tell you

00:51:01.680 on day one

00:51:02.320 with no

00:51:03.600 knowledge

00:51:04.120 except

00:51:05.280 experience

00:51:06.140 I would

00:51:07.440 guess

00:51:07.780 that all

00:51:08.580 of you

00:51:08.900 who have

00:51:09.240 a lot

00:51:09.500 of corporate

00:51:10.120 experience

00:51:10.820 were on

00:51:12.180 to this

00:51:12.480 from the

00:51:12.880 start

00:51:13.240 anytime

00:51:14.820 you

00:51:15.220 consolidate

00:51:15.900 departments

00:51:17.000 and get

00:51:17.520 rid of

00:51:17.780 the fat

00:51:18.280 what

00:51:19.340 happens

00:51:19.760 to the

00:51:20.140 fat

00:51:20.520 does

00:51:21.980 the

00:51:22.200 fat

00:51:22.660 meaning

00:51:23.400 the

00:51:23.620 people

00:51:23.880 that

00:51:24.080 you

00:51:24.180 got

00:51:24.380 rid

00:51:24.560 of

00:51:24.760 because

00:51:25.020 they

00:51:25.200 weren't

00:51:25.500 pulling

00:51:25.840 their

00:51:26.060 weight

00:51:26.340 do those

00:51:27.220 people

00:51:27.460 go off

00:51:27.960 and say

00:51:28.320 well

00:51:29.180 good job

00:51:30.140 there

00:51:30.340 boss

00:51:30.760 you got

00:51:31.660 rid of

00:51:31.940 the fat

00:51:32.380 too bad

00:51:33.560 I'm the

00:51:33.940 fat

00:51:34.240 but

00:51:35.140 you know

00:51:36.020 you did

00:51:36.380 a good

00:51:36.600 job

00:51:36.920 because you

00:51:37.180 got rid

00:51:37.540 of me

00:51:38.040 because I

00:51:38.960 was the

00:51:39.280 fat

00:51:39.620 has

00:51:41.000 anybody

00:51:41.280 in the

00:51:41.600 entire

00:51:41.860 world

00:51:42.200 ever done

00:51:42.600 that

00:51:42.900 no

00:51:43.500 no

00:51:44.480 the person

00:51:45.380 who is

00:51:45.760 the fat

00:51:46.380 complains

00:51:47.680 that it

00:51:47.960 was all

00:51:48.300 done

00:51:48.540 wrong

00:51:48.880 and it's

00:51:49.200 a big

00:51:49.480 mistake

00:51:49.900 and they

00:51:50.300 don't know

00:51:50.620 how valuable

00:51:51.220 you are

00:51:51.840 and man

00:51:52.640 are they

00:51:52.860 going to

00:51:53.060 pay for

00:51:53.400 it when

00:51:53.620 the pandemic

00:51:54.120 comes

00:51:54.540 that's what

00:51:56.160 the fat

00:51:56.580 says

00:51:56.900 so I

00:51:58.600 was waiting

00:51:59.040 for the

00:51:59.460 news

00:51:59.760 to correct

00:52:00.960 this

00:52:01.260 and sure

00:52:01.660 enough

00:52:01.880 the

00:52:02.060 Washington

00:52:02.460 Post

00:52:02.880 ran an

00:52:03.400 article

00:52:03.680 by the

00:52:04.760 guy

00:52:05.000 who made

00:52:05.440 the

00:52:05.620 decision

00:52:06.080 remember

00:52:06.860 I told

00:52:07.200 you

00:52:07.420 you have

00:52:08.080 to find

00:52:08.400 out

00:52:08.660 why

00:52:09.400 they

00:52:09.580 did

00:52:09.760 it

00:52:10.020 because

00:52:10.900 if you

00:52:11.180 haven't

00:52:11.380 heard

00:52:11.540 the

00:52:11.780 context

00:52:12.540 of why

00:52:13.140 it was

00:52:13.400 closed

00:52:13.720 you don't

00:52:14.080 really know

00:52:14.500 anything

00:52:14.800 and my

00:52:15.840 assumption

00:52:16.260 at the

00:52:16.680 time

00:52:17.000 was that

00:52:17.440 they didn't

00:52:17.820 close it

00:52:18.480 and get

00:52:18.780 rid of

00:52:19.040 the

00:52:19.180 function

00:52:19.600 but rather

00:52:20.840 based on

00:52:22.440 experience

00:52:23.100 in the

00:52:23.400 corporate

00:52:23.660 world

00:52:24.080 it probably

00:52:25.140 was folded

00:52:25.860 into some

00:52:26.480 other group

00:52:27.020 for a

00:52:27.620 perfectly

00:52:27.980 good

00:52:28.280 reason

00:52:28.620 and so

00:52:29.660 finally

00:52:30.020 the guy

00:52:30.500 who

00:52:30.760 made

00:52:31.720 the

00:52:31.900 decision

00:52:32.320 the

00:52:33.400 actual

00:52:34.120 one

00:52:34.480 person

00:52:34.860 who said

00:52:35.340 yeah

00:52:35.560 that was

00:52:36.000 me

00:52:36.400 I did

00:52:37.660 that

00:52:38.040 I got

00:52:39.180 rid of

00:52:39.440 that

00:52:39.580 office

00:52:39.920 by combining

00:52:40.660 it into

00:52:41.020 the other

00:52:41.320 and he

00:52:41.960 explained

00:52:42.340 why he

00:52:42.720 did it

00:52:43.080 and then

00:52:43.460 you say

00:52:43.800 oh

00:52:44.420 it was

00:52:44.840 duplicate

00:52:45.320 it was

00:52:46.360 duplicate

00:52:46.740 he got

00:52:47.920 rid of

00:52:48.220 duplication

00:52:48.900 now

00:52:49.980 did

00:52:50.740 getting

00:52:51.000 rid of

00:52:51.480 duplication

00:52:52.460 did

00:52:55.680 getting

00:52:55.920 rid of

00:52:56.320 duplication

00:52:57.260 change

00:52:58.140 anything

00:52:58.480 probably

00:53:01.180 made it

00:53:01.560 better

00:53:01.840 but it

00:53:02.660 certainly

00:53:02.860 didn't

00:53:03.100 make it

00:53:03.400 worse

00:53:03.680 anyway

00:53:04.420 so

00:53:05.480 I'm

00:53:06.100 going to

00:53:06.260 read my

00:53:06.660 tweet

00:53:07.060 to talk

00:53:07.960 about

00:53:08.200 this

00:53:08.500 vocal

00:53:09.200 process

00:53:10.320 and I'm

00:53:12.640 going to

00:53:12.740 show you

00:53:13.080 that I'm

00:53:13.820 randomly

00:53:14.400 accentuating

00:53:16.080 words

00:53:16.460 but I

00:53:17.200 also

00:53:17.380 this is

00:53:17.820 a technique

00:53:18.500 I added

00:53:18.860 myself

00:53:19.280 I sometimes

00:53:20.420 randomly

00:53:21.100 add a

00:53:21.680 space

00:53:22.140 because if

00:53:23.660 you're listening

00:53:24.060 to somebody

00:53:24.540 talk and

00:53:25.140 they're at

00:53:25.380 a certain

00:53:25.760 pace

00:53:26.220 and they

00:53:29.380 pause

00:53:29.880 your focus

00:53:32.120 goes right

00:53:32.920 to it

00:53:33.400 so if

00:53:34.720 somebody

00:53:34.980 goes

00:53:35.200 your

00:53:36.960 brain

00:53:37.240 just

00:53:37.540 acclimates

00:53:38.480 to it

00:53:38.760 and you're

00:53:38.980 like

00:53:39.120 oh

00:53:39.340 there's

00:53:39.580 this

00:53:39.720 background

00:53:40.120 buzz

00:53:40.600 I'm

00:53:42.600 trying to

00:53:43.060 follow along

00:53:43.700 I think

00:53:44.020 I got

00:53:44.280 most of

00:53:44.640 that

00:53:44.780 sentence

00:53:45.240 I'm

00:53:47.040 so bored

00:53:47.560 I'm

00:53:47.740 thinking

00:53:47.940 about

00:53:48.220 other

00:53:48.440 things

00:53:48.740 I'm

00:53:48.940 half

00:53:49.140 listening

00:53:49.480 so the

00:53:51.940 more

00:53:52.200 the same

00:53:54.100 your speech

00:53:55.040 is the

00:53:55.740 less people

00:53:56.240 pay attention

00:53:56.800 what is

00:53:58.100 the number

00:53:58.460 one rule

00:53:59.060 of persuasion

00:53:59.760 anybody

00:54:00.700 anybody

00:54:01.560 attention

00:54:03.100 the number

00:54:04.660 one rule

00:54:05.360 of

00:54:05.640 persuasion

00:54:06.620 is

00:54:09.860 attention

00:54:10.260 see what I

00:54:11.700 just did

00:54:12.040 there

00:54:12.280 do you see

00:54:12.900 how I

00:54:13.160 left a

00:54:13.780 little

00:54:13.920 gap

00:54:14.280 and you

00:54:15.420 already

00:54:15.640 even knew

00:54:16.020 what I

00:54:16.260 was going

00:54:16.520 to say

00:54:16.880 right

00:54:17.520 you knew

00:54:18.520 what I

00:54:18.780 was going

00:54:19.040 to say

00:54:19.240 because I

00:54:19.560 said it

00:54:19.840 twice

00:54:20.240 in a

00:54:20.740 row

00:54:20.920 the second

00:54:22.080 time I

00:54:22.460 said it

00:54:22.800 I put

00:54:23.140 it in

00:54:23.320 a pause

00:54:23.760 and I

00:54:24.840 made you

00:54:25.360 stop and

00:54:25.860 pay

00:54:26.000 attention

00:54:26.380 and it

00:54:27.440 worked

00:54:27.860 now you

00:54:29.000 were paying

00:54:29.300 attention

00:54:29.600 anyway but

00:54:30.200 you could

00:54:30.880 probably feel

00:54:31.460 it as

00:54:32.420 soon as I

00:54:32.960 stopped my

00:54:34.120 sentence in

00:54:34.620 the middle

00:54:34.940 and there

00:54:35.240 was an

00:56:12.660 early

00:56:18.400 into

00:56:18.700 another

00:56:19.060 department

00:56:19.520 because

00:56:19.920 of

00:56:20.060 redundancy

00:56:20.580 basically

00:56:21.680 I

00:56:34.700 ego

00:56:35.160 somebody

00:56:36.660 contacted

00:56:59.280 to him

00:56:59.600 that

00:56:59.900 he's

00:57:00.100 lacking

00:57:00.360 context

00:57:01.080 if

00:57:01.900 you've

00:57:02.080 been

00:57:08.940 doing

00:57:09.120 it

00:57:09.280 intentionally

00:57:09.700 is

00:57:10.540 to

00:57:14.000 have

00:57:14.140 a

00:57:14.280 certain

00:57:14.500 filter

00:57:14.940 on

00:57:15.180 the

00:57:15.320 world

00:57:15.640 that

00:57:16.100 I

00:57:16.260 believe

00:57:16.740 can

00:57:17.400 be

00:57:17.580 validated

00:57:18.060 by

00:57:18.420 being

00:57:18.660 better

00:57:18.940 at

00:57:19.120 predicting

00:57:19.580 than

00:57:20.580 other

00:57:26.460 be

00:57:26.580 sort

00:57:26.780 of

00:57:26.860 egotistical

00:57:27.580 wouldn't

00:57:30.800 and

00:57:30.940 I

00:57:32.000 think

00:57:32.240 maybe

00:57:32.480 the

00:57:32.660 most

00:57:32.880 important

00:57:33.200 thing

00:57:33.740 teach

00:57:33.980 you

00:57:38.980 be

00:57:39.100 effective

00:57:39.540 your

00:57:40.200 ego

00:57:40.460 is

00:57:40.620 your

00:57:40.740 enemy

00:57:40.980 and

00:57:41.200 it's

00:57:41.340 your

00:57:41.460 obstacle

00:57:41.900 it's

00:57:42.320 not

00:57:42.460 your

00:57:42.600 friend

00:57:42.880 it's

00:57:43.100 not

00:57:43.260 who

00:57:43.460 you

00:57:43.680 are

00:57:43.980 your

00:57:50.580 to

00:57:50.700 a

00:57:50.840 tool

00:57:51.040 but

00:57:51.260 you

00:57:51.340 have

00:57:51.440 to

00:57:51.540 work

00:57:51.720 at

00:57:51.920 it

00:57:52.220 in

00:57:53.060 this

00:57:53.300 case

00:57:53.700 in

00:57:54.500 order

00:57:54.720 for

00:57:54.980 me

00:57:55.280 to

00:57:55.800 let

00:57:56.500 the

00:57:56.680 audience

00:57:57.000 understand

00:57:57.660 that

00:57:59.080 I'm

00:57:59.260 making

00:57:59.520 predictions

00:58:00.020 and

00:58:00.840 I'm

00:58:01.080 really

00:58:01.480 reinforcing

00:58:02.080 them

00:58:02.340 when

00:58:02.480 I

00:58:02.580 get

00:58:02.720 them

00:58:02.880 right

00:58:03.140 but

00:58:03.700 I'm

00:58:03.860 also

00:58:04.180 really

00:58:04.560 reinforcing

00:58:05.120 them

00:58:05.360 when

00:58:05.500 I

00:58:05.600 get

00:58:05.740 them

00:58:05.920 wrong

00:58:06.240 I

00:58:06.600 think

00:58:06.800 everybody

00:58:07.840 would

00:58:08.100 admit

00:58:08.580 that

00:58:08.820 right

00:58:09.060 you've

00:58:09.680 seen

00:58:09.840 me

00:58:10.000 make

00:58:10.180 predictions

00:58:10.600 that

00:58:10.840 were

00:58:11.000 wrong

00:58:11.360 I

00:58:11.940 say

00:58:12.140 it's

00:58:12.320 wrong

00:58:12.660 I'll

00:58:12.960 tell

00:58:13.100 you

00:58:13.200 a million

00:58:13.500 times

00:58:13.980 I'll

00:58:14.500 tell

00:58:14.620 you

00:58:14.720 why

00:58:14.920 I

00:58:15.080 thought

00:58:15.260 it

00:58:15.340 was

00:58:15.440 wrong

00:58:15.680 etc

00:58:16.120 so

00:58:16.900 we're

00:58:17.080 trying

00:58:17.360 to

00:58:17.500 process

00:58:17.840 we're

00:58:18.240 doing

00:58:18.400 it

00:58:18.540 in

00:58:18.660 public

00:58:18.940 it

00:58:19.240 requires

00:58:19.720 me

00:58:20.020 to

00:58:20.340 make

00:58:20.800 a

00:58:21.020 public

00:58:21.360 prediction

00:58:21.760 and

00:58:22.620 then

00:58:22.900 reinforce

00:58:24.240 how

00:58:25.580 awesome

00:58:25.940 it

00:58:26.100 was

00:58:26.320 that

00:58:26.480 I

00:58:26.600 got

00:58:26.760 it

00:58:26.880 right

00:58:27.120 it

00:58:28.640 has

00:58:28.820 nothing

00:58:29.120 to

00:58:29.340 do

00:58:29.480 with

00:58:29.660 how

00:58:29.820 I

00:58:29.980 feel

00:58:30.260 about

00:58:30.500 myself

00:58:30.960 I

00:58:32.340 know

00:58:32.740 that

00:58:33.500 this

00:58:33.760 is

00:58:34.160 bothersome

00:58:36.320 and

00:58:36.500 annoying

00:58:36.880 to

00:58:37.120 some

00:58:37.360 types

00:58:37.620 of

00:58:37.780 personalities

00:58:38.400 and

00:58:39.560 it's

00:58:39.760 probably

00:58:40.100 interfering

00:58:41.780 with

00:58:42.100 your

00:58:42.260 own

00:58:42.460 ego

00:58:42.740 if I

00:58:43.980 could

00:58:44.140 put

00:58:44.300 a

00:58:44.420 gas

00:58:44.680 on

00:58:44.860 it

00:58:44.980 what's

00:58:45.220 happening

00:58:45.540 if

00:58:46.260 you

00:58:46.420 could

00:58:46.620 remove

00:58:47.020 your

00:58:47.480 ego

00:58:47.780 from

00:58:48.100 it

00:58:48.320 then

00:58:49.580 you

00:58:49.820 would

00:58:50.020 be

00:58:50.200 okay

00:58:50.620 with

00:58:51.340 me

00:58:51.540 doing

00:58:51.780 what

00:58:52.000 I'm

00:58:52.160 doing

00:58:52.480 knowing

00:58:53.340 that

00:58:53.740 I'm

00:58:54.600 embarrassing

00:58:55.120 myself

00:58:55.660 intentionally

00:58:56.820 because

00:58:58.000 whether

00:58:59.000 I'm

00:59:00.000 bragging

00:59:00.360 about

00:59:00.640 my

00:59:00.880 successes

00:59:01.300 or

00:59:01.640 I

00:59:01.780 get

00:59:01.880 something

00:59:02.180 wrong

00:59:02.600 both

00:59:03.860 of

00:59:04.000 those

00:59:04.160 are

00:59:04.280 reasons

00:59:04.540 to

00:59:04.720 be

00:59:04.840 embarrassed

00:59:05.300 right

00:59:05.640 both

00:59:06.960 of

00:59:07.100 those

00:59:07.240 are

00:59:07.360 reasons

00:59:07.640 for

00:59:07.840 criticism

00:59:08.280 and

00:59:08.840 indeed

00:59:09.280 I

00:59:09.420 get

00:59:09.560 criticisms

00:59:10.040 for

00:59:10.380 both

00:59:10.680 so

00:59:11.360 I'm

00:59:11.460 telling

00:59:11.640 you

00:59:11.780 in

00:59:11.880 advance

00:59:12.260 I'm

00:59:12.920 not

00:59:13.100 going

00:59:13.220 to

00:59:13.360 feel

00:59:14.060 bad

00:59:14.440 when

00:59:14.620 I

00:59:14.700 get

00:59:14.820 one

00:59:14.980 wrong

00:59:15.240 I

00:59:15.920 just

00:59:16.100 don't

00:59:16.300 feel

00:59:16.560 shame

00:59:16.920 that

00:59:17.140 way

00:59:17.340 and

00:59:17.980 I'm

00:59:18.140 not

00:59:18.300 going to

00:59:18.460 be

00:59:18.620 shamed

00:59:19.000 into

00:59:19.420 not

00:59:20.420 crowing

00:59:21.980 when I

00:59:22.340 get it

00:59:22.620 right

00:59:22.980 and I'll

00:59:23.740 say

00:59:23.900 crowing

00:59:24.880 because

00:59:25.240 internally

00:59:26.080 I don't

00:59:26.780 feel like

00:59:27.140 I'm

00:59:27.380 bragging

00:59:27.800 I feel

00:59:28.140 like this

00:59:28.460 is a

00:59:28.760 necessary

00:59:29.180 piece

00:59:29.540 of

00:59:29.680 information

00:59:30.160 to

00:59:30.940 know

00:59:31.200 when

00:59:31.340 it's

00:59:31.500 right

00:59:31.720 and

00:59:31.900 when

00:59:32.300 it's

00:59:32.520 wrong

00:59:32.760 take

00:59:34.660 this

00:59:34.980 emergency

00:59:35.560 situation

00:59:36.220 for

00:59:36.520 example

00:59:36.940 those

00:59:38.020 of

00:59:38.200 you

00:59:38.340 who

00:59:38.520 have

00:59:38.660 watched

00:59:38.980 me

00:59:39.220 be

00:59:39.440 right

00:59:39.760 about

00:59:40.100 who

00:59:40.340 was

00:59:40.500 going

00:59:40.660 to

00:59:40.700 be

00:59:40.820 the

00:59:41.000 president

00:59:41.380 those

00:59:41.820 of

00:59:41.980 you

00:59:42.100 who

00:59:42.280 watched

00:59:42.540 me

00:59:42.780 be

00:59:43.020 right

00:59:43.400 about

00:59:43.940 talks

00:59:44.900 with

00:59:45.140 North

00:59:45.420 Korea 0.61

00:59:45.760 at least

00:59:46.180 calming

00:59:46.660 things

00:59:47.000 down

00:59:47.320 we

00:59:47.620 still

00:59:47.840 think

00:59:48.040 there's

00:59:48.240 a

00:59:48.320 long

00:59:48.480 way

00:59:48.620 to

00:59:48.740 go

00:59:48.860 there

00:59:49.060 those

00:59:49.700 of

00:59:49.860 you

00:59:49.980 watch

00:59:50.240 me

00:59:50.400 right

00:59:50.720 that

00:59:51.020 we

00:59:51.180 were

00:59:51.320 not

00:59:51.580 going

00:59:51.840 to

00:59:52.040 a

00:59:52.220 kinetic

00:59:52.560 war

00:59:52.940 with

00:59:53.160 Iran

00:59:53.580 back

00:59:54.000 back

00:59:54.020 then

00:59:54.820 those

00:59:55.760 of

00:59:55.940 you

00:59:56.120 watched

00:59:56.580 me

00:59:56.820 being

00:59:57.100 right

00:59:57.420 in

00:59:57.800 the

00:59:57.940 weirdest

00:59:58.300 most

00:59:58.880 unexplained

00:59:59.700 way

01:00:00.020 I

01:00:01.040 might

01:00:01.320 be

01:00:01.480 right

01:00:01.660 about

01:00:01.880 Kamala

01:00:02.240 Harris

01:00:02.600 although

01:00:02.940 that

01:00:03.560 one's

01:00:03.820 probably

01:00:04.140 more

01:00:04.380 of a

01:00:04.620 50-50

01:00:05.180 situation

01:00:05.820 but

01:00:06.580 the

01:00:06.700 fact

01:00:06.900 that

01:00:07.200 she's

01:00:07.620 being

01:00:07.880 you

01:00:08.500 know

01:00:08.680 she's

01:00:09.180 in

01:00:09.260 the

01:00:09.420 top

01:00:09.660 two

01:00:10.020 conversation

01:00:10.780 top

01:00:11.640 three

01:00:11.880 maybe

01:00:12.180 conversation

01:00:13.280 for

01:00:13.760 being

01:00:14.000 vice

01:00:14.300 president

01:00:14.720 to

01:00:16.760 somebody

01:00:17.180 who

01:00:17.420 would

01:00:17.620 not

01:00:17.820 be

01:00:18.100 so

01:00:18.580 much

01:00:18.800 in

01:00:18.980 control

01:00:19.320 we

01:00:19.600 presume

01:00:20.020 it's

01:00:20.820 kind

01:00:21.060 of

01:00:21.160 a

01:00:21.280 weird

01:00:21.500 prediction

01:00:21.920 to

01:00:22.160 get

01:00:22.300 that

01:00:22.460 one

01:00:22.660 at

01:00:23.460 least

01:00:23.640 as

01:00:23.860 close

01:00:24.300 as

01:00:24.500 it

01:00:24.640 is

01:00:24.860 even

01:00:25.140 technically

01:00:25.780 wrong

01:00:26.180 so

01:00:27.300 if

01:00:27.500 you

01:00:27.640 watched

01:00:28.000 me

01:00:28.220 do

01:00:28.420 those

01:00:28.720 things

01:00:29.000 in

01:00:29.180 public

01:00:29.500 and

01:00:29.820 then

01:00:30.000 tell

01:00:30.240 you

01:00:30.440 ahead

01:00:30.760 of

01:00:30.900 time

01:00:31.080 I

01:00:31.220 was

01:00:31.360 doing

01:00:31.560 them

01:00:31.740 why

01:00:32.320 I

01:00:32.480 was

01:00:32.600 doing

01:00:32.840 them

01:00:33.060 what

01:00:33.540 the

01:00:33.720 thinking

01:00:33.980 is

01:00:34.260 what

01:00:34.440 the

01:00:34.580 filter

01:00:34.840 is

01:00:35.140 and

01:00:35.640 then

01:00:35.780 watching

01:00:36.100 it

01:00:36.260 materialize

01:00:37.040 if

01:00:37.660 you've

01:00:37.860 gone

01:00:38.020 through

01:00:38.200 that

01:00:38.420 cycle

01:00:38.800 enough

01:00:39.100 times

01:00:39.680 then

01:00:40.800 when

01:00:41.000 I

01:00:41.160 tell

01:00:41.380 you

01:00:41.640 that

01:00:50.020 you're

01:00:50.320 going

01:00:50.480 to

01:00:50.540 be

01:00:50.700 fine

01:00:51.100 and

01:00:51.540 that

01:00:51.680 you're

01:00:51.840 not

01:00:52.020 going

01:00:52.180 to

01:00:52.260 run

01:00:52.420 out

01:00:52.560 of

01:00:52.680 food

01:00:52.960 do

01:00:54.380 you

01:00:54.500 believe

01:00:54.700 me

01:00:54.960 well

01:00:56.100 it's

01:00:56.400 that

01:00:56.580 crowing

01:00:57.080 and

01:00:57.220 it's

01:00:57.440 the

01:00:57.600 bragging

01:00:58.040 that

01:00:59.100 keeps

01:00:59.860 the

01:01:00.040 pattern

01:01:00.320 in

01:01:00.500 your

01:01:00.620 head

01:01:00.800 that

01:01:00.940 says

01:01:01.120 oh

01:01:01.240 yeah

01:01:01.400 he

01:01:01.620 got

01:01:01.860 some

01:01:02.500 pretty

01:01:02.740 unlikely

01:01:03.120 things

01:01:03.580 right

01:01:03.920 and

01:01:04.660 the

01:01:04.800 things

01:01:05.020 that

01:01:05.120 were

01:01:05.220 easy

01:01:05.500 he

01:01:05.700 got

01:01:05.880 most

01:01:06.180 of

01:01:06.280 them

01:01:06.420 right

01:01:06.620 too

01:01:06.860 now

01:01:07.980 that

01:01:08.100 doesn't

01:01:08.280 mean

01:01:08.400 I'm

01:01:08.560 going

01:01:08.660 to

01:01:08.680 be

01:01:08.820 right

01:01:09.020 all

01:01:09.140 the

01:01:09.280 time

01:01:09.520 and

01:01:09.940 I

01:01:10.040 would

01:01:10.160 make

01:01:10.360 no

01:01:10.540 claim

01:01:10.900 to

01:01:11.100 being

01:01:11.300 magic

01:01:11.800 at

01:01:12.420 all

01:01:12.660 I

01:01:13.200 have

01:01:13.300 no

01:01:13.420 magic

01:01:13.740 powers

01:01:14.120 so

01:01:14.740 you

01:01:14.900 can

01:01:15.040 watch

01:01:15.420 and

01:01:15.620 you

01:01:15.720 can

01:01:15.860 judge

01:01:16.100 for

01:01:16.240 yourself

01:01:16.600 and

01:01:17.320 I

01:01:17.480 guarantee

01:01:17.920 that

01:01:18.520 every

01:01:18.760 time

01:01:19.020 I'm

01:01:19.220 right

01:01:19.500 about

01:01:19.800 anything

01:01:20.180 I'm

01:01:21.420 going

01:01:21.600 to

01:01:21.800 crow

01:01:22.040 about

01:01:22.320 it

01:01:22.460 because

01:01:22.620 it's

01:01:22.740 part

01:01:22.880 of

01:01:22.960 the

01:01:23.040 process

01:01:23.420 it's

01:01:23.720 important

01:01:24.060 it's

01:01:24.760 important

01:01:25.000 for

01:01:25.180 you

01:01:25.460 I

01:01:25.880 wouldn't

01:01:26.040 do

01:01:26.180 it

01:01:26.380 if

01:01:27.060 for

01:01:27.220 me

01:01:27.420 it

01:01:28.560 anything

01:01:28.860 to

01:01:29.480 do

01:01:30.520 that

01:01:30.780 all

01:01:31.360 right

01:01:31.540 I

01:01:33.200 got a

01:01:33.420 recommendation

01:01:33.740 for you

01:01:34.280 and it's

01:01:34.760 along

01:01:35.120 these

01:01:35.400 exact

01:01:35.900 same

01:01:36.360 lines

01:01:37.080 if

01:01:38.900 you

01:01:39.080 follow

01:01:39.460 me

01:01:39.960 and

01:01:40.960 you're

01:01:41.160 not

01:01:41.500 following

01:01:42.080 Mike

01:01:42.460 Cernovich

01:01:42.920 I

01:01:43.860 don't

01:01:44.060 know

01:01:44.240 why

01:01:44.640 because

01:01:45.760 certainly

01:01:46.320 there

01:01:46.560 might

01:01:46.780 have

01:01:46.880 been

01:01:46.980 a

01:01:47.120 time

01:01:47.340 when

01:01:47.560 you

01:01:47.680 said

01:01:47.900 oh

01:01:48.240 you

01:01:48.460 know

01:01:48.680 I'm

01:01:50.000 not

01:01:50.160 getting

01:01:50.420 enough

01:01:50.680 value

01:01:51.260 out of

01:01:51.680 that

01:01:52.000 or

01:01:52.320 his

01:01:53.000 personality

01:01:53.640 doesn't

01:01:54.440 fit

01:01:55.360 with me

01:01:55.840 so I

01:01:56.400 don't

01:01:56.540 like

01:01:56.700 to

01:01:56.880 see

01:01:57.020 him

01:01:57.200 and

01:01:57.380 he's

01:01:57.940 bragging

01:01:58.340 about

01:01:58.620 his

01:01:58.820 accomplishments

01:01:59.420 and

01:02:00.020 stuff

01:02:00.740 like

01:02:00.960 that

01:02:01.300 but

01:02:04.100 man

01:02:04.900 is

01:02:05.120 he

01:02:05.300 right

01:02:05.660 a

01:02:05.820 lot

01:02:06.080 including

01:02:07.220 the

01:02:08.360 earliest

01:02:08.960 warnings

01:02:09.640 on this

01:02:10.180 virus

01:02:10.960 he is

01:02:12.140 right

01:02:12.640 a lot

01:02:13.680 and

01:02:15.240 he has

01:02:16.260 deserved

01:02:16.980 you know

01:02:17.940 he has

01:02:18.180 earned

01:02:18.500 he has

01:02:19.640 earned

01:02:19.980 let's say

01:02:20.400 not

01:02:20.620 deserved

01:02:21.000 I don't

01:02:21.480 like that

01:02:21.800 word

01:02:22.000 but he

01:02:22.560 has

01:02:22.700 earned

01:02:23.120 people's

01:02:24.800 attention

01:02:25.140 so if

01:02:26.320 you're

01:02:26.480 not

01:02:26.660 watching

01:02:27.020 his

01:02:27.320 take

01:02:27.600 on

01:02:27.780 stuff

01:02:28.040 and

01:02:28.180 they're

01:02:28.300 really

01:02:28.500 different

01:02:28.920 and

01:02:29.420 they're

01:02:29.640 they tend

01:02:30.100 to be

01:02:30.380 way

01:02:30.660 early

01:02:31.060 and

01:02:31.880 way

01:02:32.160 more

01:02:32.420 insightful

01:02:32.860 than

01:02:33.160 other

01:02:33.360 people's

01:02:33.760 opinions
