00:00:00.000 Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum

00:00:08.020 Hey everybody, come on in here. Hey Donnie Diamonds, good to see ya.

00:00:14.420 What a day!

00:00:16.660 Well most of you are probably in church or headed to church or wish you were in church or doing a virtual zoom to church.

00:00:24.740 I suppose nobody's actually going to church today, right?

00:00:27.580 Is there any place in the country you could actually go and be in the same room with each other?

00:00:32.720 I don't know. Maybe we'll find out.

00:00:36.000 Hey Omar, good morning, good morning.

00:00:39.980 Well there's not much going on today, which isn't just a continuation of what was going on yesterday.

00:00:45.220 But we'll talk about that, but not until we get the day started just right.

00:00:51.500 I'll be taking some questions, so if anybody wants to queue up to be a question asker,

00:00:57.580 this will be the time to do it.

00:00:59.300 But first, if you would like to enjoy the simultaneous sip, and of course you would, of course you would.

00:01:05.080 Yeah, you would.

00:01:07.540 All you need is a cup or a mug or a glass or take your chalice or stein, a canteen jug or a flask or a vessel of any kind.

00:01:12.100 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:14.180 I like coffee.

00:01:15.720 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine to the day,

00:01:18.600 the thing that makes everything, including the pandemic, better.

00:01:23.780 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.

00:01:27.600 Go.

00:01:27.880 Well, let's see what's going on.

00:01:38.340 The South is open for church services.

00:01:40.320 What do you all think of that?

00:01:42.340 Do you think that your right to assemble in church should take priority over the health of the public?

00:01:53.980 Well, here's the way I look at it.

00:01:58.640 How could you go to church and have those good churchy feelings, but also be willing to kill grandma to do it?

00:02:09.120 So I'll give you my opinion.

00:02:12.500 Here's my opinion.

00:02:13.560 Freedom is good, but if the way you worship your god risks killing your grandmother for no good reason,

00:02:21.040 I would say you've made the wrong choice.

00:02:25.080 I wasn't expecting to take a strong stand against going to church today.

00:02:29.500 It just kind of came out.

00:02:33.660 As most of you know, I'm not a believer, but I'm very pro-religion,

00:02:37.920 because I think religion is, if properly used, and it's more often properly used than not,

00:02:44.900 religion is a tremendous benefit to most people.

00:02:47.280 So I hope you're enjoying your day today, but I have to question why anybody would get in any kind of a group

00:02:57.520 when the health risks are so high, and especially why would you do it on a religious day?

00:03:03.860 It seems like that should be the day that you're worshipping Satan.

00:03:08.840 If you were worshipping Satan, wouldn't it make sense to get together with a big group

00:03:12.400 so you could get everybody infected and kill everybody in the nursing home?

00:03:17.700 Feels a little more like Satan-ish, but that's up to you.

00:03:23.520 All right.

00:03:25.420 You're all familiar with Voice of America.

00:03:27.420 That's our U.S.-funded entity that broadcasts radio into other countries

00:03:34.420 so that we can propagandize them and tell them that we're pretty darn awesome here.

00:03:39.100 Pretty darn awesome.

00:03:42.400 And, apparently, Voice of America is not as objective as we'd like it to be,

00:03:49.540 and it's been accused by our government of, we spend $200 million a year on the Voice of America,

00:03:56.960 and apparently it's starting to spout Chinese propaganda.

00:04:03.760 That's right.

00:04:04.480 We're spending however many millions of dollars on the World Health Organization

00:04:08.700 to not give us, you know, to not give us good health information.

00:04:14.980 We spend all this money on the World Trade Organization

00:04:18.560 to not give us fair trials.

00:04:22.700 And, apparently, we're spending a lot of money on the Voice of America

00:04:26.640 to create propaganda against us.

00:04:30.500 And, I think that's probably an overstatement.

00:04:34.380 There have been some specific examples in which they seemed a little bit pro-China,

00:04:41.060 which is weird.

00:04:42.300 I don't know how that could happen,

00:04:44.280 given that we're the ones who fund it.

00:04:45.960 I don't know.

00:04:46.560 Honestly, I don't know how it happens.

00:04:48.360 But, there it is.

00:04:49.080 So, anyway, that's a big story today.

00:04:50.580 I continue to wait for this sign before I decide to get afraid of the coronavirus.

00:05:00.140 As of today, I am not personally afraid.

00:05:03.260 I mean, I'm certainly afraid for the impact it might have on the country and other people.

00:05:08.120 But, for me personally, I'm pretty well isolated here.

00:05:12.860 Not too afraid.

00:05:13.560 But, I've proposed this standard for myself.

00:05:18.420 Which is, there are a lot of famous people in the world, right?

00:05:22.520 If you count all the famous athletes, celebrities, politicians, etc.

00:05:26.440 Tons of famous people in the world.

00:05:28.740 Until the first famous person who's under the age of 70 dies from the coronavirus,

00:05:34.480 and of all those possible people whose names you know,

00:05:38.500 and you would call them a celebrity under the age of 70,

00:05:41.900 if not a single one of them in America dies,

00:05:45.580 what are the odds I would be the first one?

00:05:48.940 Because, if you think about it,

00:05:50.520 at this point,

00:05:51.860 I don't want to jinx myself,

00:05:54.060 but if I were to die,

00:05:55.700 you know, me personally,

00:05:57.160 to die from coronavirus tomorrow,

00:05:59.460 I would be the most famous person who died of coronavirus in the United States.

00:06:06.260 Is that wrong, by the way?

00:06:08.520 Has anybody famous in the United States,

00:06:12.500 under 70,

00:06:14.400 died?

00:06:15.720 I don't think so.

00:06:17.120 So, what were the odds that I would be,

00:06:18.600 out of all the famous people in the country,

00:06:21.600 really the world,

00:06:22.400 I haven't heard of any famous dying yet,

00:06:25.180 out of all those famous people,

00:06:27.080 what are the odds that I would be the one who dies?

00:06:30.460 Seems pretty low.

00:06:31.920 So, I realize it's irrational,

00:06:33.540 and not based on math or anything,

00:06:35.220 but until there's at least one famous person dying,

00:06:39.860 what are the odds it's me?

00:06:41.880 Speaking of that,

00:06:43.100 Babyface,

00:06:43.900 the singer, producer,

00:06:47.060 entertainer,

00:06:48.180 is 61 years old,

00:06:49.380 which is weird,

00:06:50.000 because he has the most perfect nickname.

00:06:53.740 So, he's a singer named Babyface.

00:06:56.120 He's 61 years old,

00:06:57.440 and when I read that,

00:06:58.380 I thought,

00:06:58.680 well, that can't be right.

00:07:00.320 He's not 61.

00:07:01.440 I'm looking at his picture,

00:07:02.260 he looks 35 tops.

00:07:04.200 He looks like he's in his 20s.

00:07:05.900 I'm looking at this guy,

00:07:06.800 and I'm thinking,

00:07:07.380 he actually has a baby face.

00:07:09.940 That's the most perfect nickname anybody ever had.

00:07:12.860 Anyway,

00:07:13.260 he and his family,

00:07:14.020 unfortunately,

00:07:14.720 they have the coronavirus.

00:07:16.820 There's no reason to believe

00:07:18.000 that they have any

00:07:18.680 especially bad problems with it,

00:07:21.880 but he's the most famous person

00:07:24.460 who's not Tom Hanks or Pink

00:07:26.360 or that basketball player,

00:07:28.600 Gobert.

00:07:29.920 I guess they're the famous ones so far,

00:07:32.000 but we hope he'll be okay.

00:07:33.240 So, Tom Hanks recovered enough

00:07:38.080 to host Saturday Night Live,

00:07:39.580 and they did it all remotely.

00:07:42.100 You know,

00:07:42.320 Tom Hanks was in his kitchen

00:07:43.680 and all the rest of the staff.

00:07:45.420 They did their own little skits

00:07:46.700 like they're YouTubers

00:07:47.600 from their own homes.

00:07:49.640 Now, I didn't see it,

00:07:50.660 but I've been watching

00:07:51.700 a lot of news TV

00:07:53.820 where the anchors and stuff

00:07:55.540 are in their own homes.

00:07:57.780 If you watch The Five,

00:07:59.140 you see they're all

00:07:59.680 in five different locations and stuff.

00:08:01.940 And if you watch Bill Maher,

00:08:03.260 you saw he did it

00:08:03.920 from his backyard or something.

00:08:06.420 And here's the question.

00:08:09.800 Are there shows?

00:08:10.860 Somebody's saying Joe Diffie,

00:08:12.120 but he was over 70,

00:08:14.140 and I didn't know who he was anyway.

00:08:17.920 I didn't know who John Prine was,

00:08:19.580 but they're over 70.

00:08:21.920 So,

00:08:22.560 here's my question.

00:08:24.860 Are the shows that we're watching

00:08:26.380 that are being cheaply produced

00:08:27.980 from people's kitchens,

00:08:30.740 are they worse?

00:08:33.240 Think about it.

00:08:35.380 Somebody says Joe Diffie was 61.

00:08:37.420 All right, well,

00:08:37.980 I don't count that one

00:08:38.880 because I didn't know who he was.

00:08:41.700 So, if I've never heard of him,

00:08:42.960 he's not famous enough to count.

00:08:46.040 He was, you know,

00:08:47.260 I'm sure some of you heard of him,

00:08:48.500 but I've never heard of him.

00:08:49.580 He's a famous drummer,

00:08:53.540 and John Prine was over 70

00:08:56.720 with underlying health conditions.

00:08:58.240 All right.

00:09:01.080 Boris Johnson, they say, nearly died.

00:09:03.180 They said 50-50,

00:09:04.220 but he came through.

00:09:07.320 So, anyway,

00:09:08.120 my point is,

00:09:08.780 if you're watching the news,

00:09:09.840 all these people doing these

00:09:10.920 low-production jobs from home,

00:09:14.140 honestly,

00:09:14.740 they look just as good to me.

00:09:16.840 Have you noticed?

00:09:17.760 The only thing that I noticed

00:09:19.220 that's obviously sort of missing

00:09:21.880 is there are some people

00:09:23.540 who do live shows with live audiences,

00:09:25.940 or at least other people in the room,

00:09:27.800 and they wait for the laugh,

00:09:29.420 and the laugh doesn't happen.

00:09:30.640 So, the way Bill Maher did his show,

00:09:33.740 I thought was clever,

00:09:36.160 and also fairly self-aware.

00:09:39.780 Because when Bill Maher does his stand-up,

00:09:42.640 a lot of the show,

00:09:46.740 if you will,

00:09:47.280 has to do with the audience reaction.

00:09:49.660 So, he's not just telling jokes

00:09:51.320 and standing there,

00:09:52.560 he's sort of moving with the audience,

00:09:54.660 and, you know,

00:09:55.260 if they laugh,

00:09:55.980 he responds and stuff.

00:09:57.920 And I'm seeing other people

00:09:59.200 saying it's worse.

00:10:00.520 I don't know.

00:10:01.620 I think it's different.

00:10:03.640 And I think it's interesting.

00:10:06.780 So, in the long run,

00:10:08.080 yeah,

00:10:08.560 I suppose you could say

00:10:09.400 it'd be worse.

00:10:10.460 Production is worse and stuff.

00:10:12.020 But there's a little bit of adjustment

00:10:13.440 they need to make.

00:10:15.040 So, the way Bill Maher did his

00:10:17.300 was he had them dub in,

00:10:19.420 you know,

00:10:19.780 fake audiences laughing at his jokes.

00:10:22.760 It would be a different audience,

00:10:24.100 you know,

00:10:24.680 and obviously from historical

00:10:26.040 black and white footage and stuff.

00:10:28.240 So, it was actually,

00:10:29.200 it was actually pretty good.

00:10:32.980 The hubris of Scott

00:10:34.900 would be the last thing

00:10:37.000 that somebody said in their comments

00:10:38.260 before they got blocked.

00:10:43.060 Anyway,

00:10:44.540 enough of that.

00:10:47.780 So, I would like to

00:10:49.360 update my permanent prediction record.

00:10:54.100 All right.

00:10:54.900 You all remember

00:10:55.520 that there was that graph

00:10:56.720 that showed that the number

00:10:58.340 of diagnosed pneumonia deaths

00:11:01.580 for this year

00:11:03.160 seemed to drop off a cliff

00:11:04.680 coincidentally

00:11:06.160 at about the same time

00:11:07.300 that the coronavirus

00:11:07.960 was picking up.

00:11:09.680 And so, people

00:11:11.080 passed that graph

00:11:12.900 all around the internet

00:11:13.740 and people said,

00:11:15.500 look,

00:11:16.340 it's obvious that

00:11:17.240 there's nothing happening

00:11:18.440 but ordinary pneumonia.

00:11:19.900 It's being miscategorized

00:11:21.440 as coronavirus

00:11:22.240 and you can tell

00:11:23.680 by looking at the graph

00:11:24.640 because

00:11:25.120 pneumonias stop

00:11:26.480 at the same time

00:11:27.620 that corona goes up

00:11:28.540 so it's obviously

00:11:29.220 just misdiagnosis.

00:11:30.340 I looked at that graph

00:11:33.620 and with no factual evidence

00:11:37.480 whatsoever

00:11:38.060 said,

00:11:39.800 that looks like

00:11:40.260 a fake graph to me.

00:11:43.320 Was I

00:11:44.140 the first person

00:11:45.180 on the internet

00:11:45.860 that you saw?

00:11:47.620 Might have been others.

00:11:48.880 But the first one

00:11:49.640 that you saw

00:11:50.280 call out this graph

00:11:52.140 that people,

00:11:52.720 everybody was passing this around.

00:11:54.160 It was very,

00:11:54.840 very well,

00:11:55.480 well trafficked.

00:11:57.520 How many people

00:11:58.160 saw that

00:11:59.420 and believed it?

00:12:00.600 And then,

00:12:01.100 I was maybe

00:12:02.080 the first person

00:12:03.000 in the world

00:12:04.680 to tell you

00:12:05.600 that doesn't look real.

00:12:06.820 That's fake.

00:12:07.860 Well,

00:12:08.060 it didn't take long

00:12:08.800 for a data scientist

00:12:10.420 by the name of,

00:12:13.360 so there's an update

00:12:14.180 to this story.

00:12:14.840 You've heard the first part.

00:12:16.100 Tyler Morgan

00:12:16.700 who put together

00:12:19.120 this amazing visualization

00:12:20.500 in which he showed

00:12:21.680 that the only reason

00:12:22.440 that that one line

00:12:23.400 seemed to drop off

00:12:24.540 this year

00:12:24.980 was because

00:12:26.200 there's a lag

00:12:26.900 in the data reporting

00:12:27.940 and it happens

00:12:28.760 every year

00:12:29.360 and every other year

00:12:31.000 looked exactly

00:12:31.740 like this year

00:12:32.520 if measured

00:12:34.160 at the same time.

00:12:35.880 But there's an update.

00:12:37.300 So people said,

00:12:38.020 are you sure,

00:12:38.880 Tyler Morgan?

00:12:39.560 Are you sure

00:12:40.120 it's going to happen

00:12:40.720 this year

00:12:41.240 just because

00:12:42.600 the other years

00:12:43.340 they had that drop to

00:12:44.460 and then it got corrected?

00:12:46.180 Does that necessarily

00:12:47.320 mean it's going

00:12:48.840 to happen this year?

00:12:50.640 And we didn't know.

00:12:52.500 But now we do.

00:12:53.980 So now the data

00:12:55.500 has been reported

00:12:56.600 and data scientist

00:12:58.660 Tyler Morgan

00:12:59.260 put in the actual data

00:13:00.560 so nothing was changed.

00:13:01.820 He just took the data

00:13:02.680 the way it's reported

00:13:03.580 and the scary drop

00:13:06.520 in pneumonias

00:13:07.900 just went away.

00:13:10.140 It went away

00:13:11.020 exactly as

00:13:12.020 Tyler Morgan

00:13:12.640 told you it would

00:13:13.700 because it went away

00:13:15.400 all the other years

00:13:16.420 at the same time.

00:13:18.560 And so he just

00:13:19.260 waited for the same time,

00:13:21.240 told you it was going

00:13:21.960 to happen.

00:13:23.160 Then he redid his graph

00:13:25.220 and there it was.

00:13:28.660 There's still people here

00:13:29.760 saying it's not fake.

00:13:31.740 Okay.

00:13:32.980 Here's what you need to do.

00:13:35.220 So it's amazing

00:13:37.280 how there's no amount

00:13:38.440 of information

00:13:39.100 that will change

00:13:39.760 people's minds.

00:13:41.120 You know,

00:13:41.400 even though I wrote

00:13:42.240 a book on that topic,

00:13:43.400 so even though

00:13:46.200 I'm most famous

00:13:47.000 for saying that

00:13:47.740 the information

00:13:48.640 and facts

00:13:49.780 don't change

00:13:50.340 anybody's opinion

00:13:51.120 even though they should

00:13:52.020 and I'm watching it happen

00:13:53.440 right in front of me,

00:13:54.600 here's what you need to do.

00:13:56.360 The source for the data

00:13:57.780 is written right

00:13:59.580 on the graphs

00:14:00.240 so you could go

00:14:01.060 to my Twitter feed

00:14:01.980 and you could find

00:14:02.900 the graph.

00:14:03.940 Look at the source,

00:14:05.700 look at the data

00:14:06.540 and see if he put

00:14:08.080 the right data

00:14:08.700 into the graph.

00:14:10.440 It's all.

00:14:11.260 You can find out

00:14:12.020 for yourself

00:14:12.480 because you can look

00:14:13.520 at the actual source.

00:14:14.520 It's a government source.

00:14:16.040 So just look at it.

00:14:17.280 Look at the data

00:14:17.880 and see if it's

00:14:18.520 the same data

00:14:19.000 he looked in the chart

00:14:19.840 and then come back to me

00:14:21.440 and tell me

00:14:22.240 he did it wrong.

00:14:25.060 I don't think

00:14:26.700 anybody's going

00:14:27.180 to come back to me.

00:14:28.140 Now,

00:14:28.380 I haven't done that

00:14:29.140 by the way.

00:14:29.860 I have not checked

00:14:30.920 that myself

00:14:31.640 but do you think

00:14:33.240 this data scientist

00:14:34.140 who's gotten

00:14:34.700 quite a bit of attention

00:14:35.720 because I tweeted him

00:14:36.780 and he deserves it,

00:14:38.080 he's really good,

00:14:39.280 do you think

00:14:39.960 that he just made that up?

00:14:41.200 I don't think so.

00:14:45.860 Who's more famous

00:14:46.880 than me?

00:14:49.120 You know,

00:14:49.460 you can check that.

00:14:50.600 There's a website

00:14:51.880 called Twitter Fight.

00:14:54.480 Is that what it's called?

00:14:55.720 No,

00:14:56.220 Google Fight,

00:14:57.000 right?

00:14:58.180 Let's do that.

00:15:01.060 Google

00:15:01.700 Fight.

00:15:04.020 Because every now

00:15:07.460 and then I like to

00:15:08.320 no,

00:15:10.020 not flights,

00:15:11.280 fight.

00:15:13.120 I guess that went away.

00:15:15.380 They don't show it anymore.

00:15:17.580 Huh.

00:15:19.380 Oh,

00:15:19.700 Google Fight,

00:15:20.340 that's why.

00:15:22.620 Oh,

00:15:23.040 God.

00:15:25.020 I've got this weird

00:15:26.020 situation with my phone.

00:15:27.660 I don't know if this

00:15:28.240 has happened to any of you

00:15:29.080 but the way I hold

00:15:30.240 my phone

00:15:30.920 all day long

00:15:32.400 is this thumb

00:15:33.200 is on this corner

00:15:34.460 of the phone

00:15:35.140 right here

00:15:35.740 so when I'm holding it

00:15:37.300 this thumb is always

00:15:38.440 right on this edge

00:15:39.380 and for a long time

00:15:41.280 afterwards

00:15:41.800 it'll have a dent in it.

00:15:43.280 Can you see that?

00:15:44.720 I spend so much time

00:15:46.120 with the phone

00:15:46.740 on the corner

00:15:47.440 of my phone

00:15:48.240 that there's actually

00:15:48.980 like a U-shaped,

00:15:50.500 it takes a while

00:15:51.100 for it to come back

00:15:52.000 but I've so deformed

00:15:54.200 the end of my thumb

00:15:55.020 by holding the same

00:15:55.800 part of my phone

00:15:56.460 that when I try to type

00:15:58.000 the end of my thumb

00:15:59.880 has two points

00:16:00.780 instead of having

00:16:02.480 one point in the middle

00:16:03.400 of the thumb

00:16:03.920 it's like

00:16:04.560 it's like a little

00:16:05.640 camel hump

00:16:06.260 with two humps

00:16:06.880 and I'm like

00:16:07.660 mistyping like crazy

00:16:10.120 so let's try it again

00:16:12.420 this is the worst

00:16:15.480 periscope of all time

00:16:16.700 but there's not much

00:16:18.160 other entertainment

00:16:18.920 happening so

00:16:19.640 let's see

00:16:23.280 my goodness

00:16:24.860 there it is

00:16:25.760 make a fight

00:16:26.360 alright

00:16:27.260 so what was that

00:16:28.380 guy's name

00:16:28.880 Diffie

00:16:29.280 Joe Diffie

00:16:30.820 so we'll check him

00:16:34.520 Joe

00:16:35.840 D-I-F-F-I-E

00:16:38.180 I think

00:16:38.640 and then

00:16:41.880 there's me

00:16:43.040 how interesting

00:16:46.100 watching other people

00:16:47.100 type on their phones

00:16:48.240 in purpose

00:16:49.800 alright

00:16:50.780 so we're going to

00:16:52.340 see this fight

00:16:53.180 and I'll show it to you

00:16:54.420 as it's

00:16:55.520 happening

00:16:55.920 if I can

00:16:56.740 it's

00:16:59.260 it's thinking

00:17:00.180 it's thinking

00:17:01.120 so what this is

00:17:02.540 is

00:17:02.880 Google will

00:17:03.900 test the number

00:17:05.700 of search results

00:17:07.080 well

00:17:08.880 it looks like

00:17:09.380 it's not going to work

00:17:10.280 that's just

00:17:12.720 well that was the

00:17:14.920 least interesting thing

00:17:15.840 that happened today

00:17:16.440 alright

00:17:17.380 do you have

00:17:20.540 any questions

00:17:21.240 we'll take your

00:17:23.280 questions

00:17:23.820 now

00:17:25.040 let's see

00:17:26.260 who has

00:17:27.120 good questions

00:17:28.660 for me

00:17:29.200 let's try

00:17:30.900 Adres

00:17:32.080 if I'm

00:17:34.200 pronouncing your name

00:17:34.980 right

00:17:35.360 Adres

00:17:37.020 Adres

00:17:38.100 Adres

00:17:39.300 Adres

00:17:40.340 are you there

00:17:40.880 do you have a question

00:17:41.540 hi

00:17:43.800 I was thinking

00:17:46.560 about a mental

00:17:47.500 framework

00:17:47.920 for this crisis

00:17:48.980 and I've been

00:17:49.840 thinking

00:17:50.640 maybe we should

00:17:51.980 change like

00:17:52.780 collectively

00:17:53.220 to the thinking

00:17:54.200 of like

00:17:55.040 really resilient

00:17:56.280 animal

00:17:57.700 or insect

00:17:58.480 like an ant

00:17:59.220 colony

00:17:59.580 that basically

00:18:00.420 when it's under

00:18:01.020 attack

00:18:01.400 just unites

00:18:02.000 forces

00:18:02.440 and really

00:18:03.000 doesn't worry

00:18:03.500 too much

00:18:03.940 about the

00:18:04.520 particular

00:18:05.000 feelings

00:18:05.420 of every

00:18:06.180 individual

00:18:06.660 ant

00:18:07.000 but just

00:18:08.060 holds together

00:18:08.700 follows orders

00:18:09.660 and pulls

00:18:10.340 through

00:18:10.640 yeah

00:18:11.800 I'm not sure

00:18:12.940 that thinking

00:18:13.680 about it

00:18:14.140 differently

00:18:14.480 would get us

00:18:15.140 to a better

00:18:15.560 result

00:18:15.960 because we

00:18:16.440 have pretty

00:18:17.040 amazing

00:18:17.600 cooperation

00:18:19.020 and innovation

00:18:19.880 and everything

00:18:20.400 you know

00:18:20.880 it's like

00:18:21.580 everything else

00:18:22.100 in the world

00:18:22.540 you know

00:18:23.580 5 or 10%

00:18:24.380 of the world

00:18:24.760 just isn't

00:18:25.360 going to go

00:18:25.720 along with

00:18:26.160 anything

00:18:26.520 but 90%

00:18:27.820 of the world

00:18:28.200 are doing

00:18:28.540 pretty well

00:18:29.100 you probably

00:18:29.800 can't get

00:18:30.300 much better

00:18:30.840 than that

00:18:31.160 unless you

00:18:31.480 threaten

00:18:31.820 to kill

00:18:32.320 people

00:18:32.660 but in

00:18:34.340 terms of

00:18:34.880 how things

00:18:35.480 are going

00:18:35.800 I like

00:18:36.180 that the

00:18:36.460 president

00:18:36.840 is reinforcing

00:18:37.920 how much

00:18:39.440 he thinks

00:18:39.840 the

00:18:40.140 the economy

00:18:41.660 is going

00:18:41.940 to bounce

00:18:42.300 back

00:18:42.720 and how

00:18:43.120 quickly

00:18:43.460 and what

00:18:44.920 I like

00:18:45.200 about that

00:18:45.600 is he's

00:18:46.040 he's basically

00:18:46.980 setting our

00:18:47.800 expectations

00:18:48.500 and he's

00:18:49.520 picked a future

00:18:50.200 point

00:18:50.640 and he said

00:18:51.060 the end

00:18:51.360 of the year

00:18:51.780 might be like

00:18:52.800 record setting

00:18:53.480 numbers

00:18:53.980 I don't know

00:18:54.840 if they'll be

00:18:55.220 record setting

00:18:55.920 but if

00:18:58.000 everybody thinks

00:18:58.860 it's going to be

00:18:59.420 good at the

00:18:59.860 end of the year

00:19:00.400 we'll all

00:19:01.680 prepare for it

00:19:02.480 so businesses

00:19:03.540 will make more

00:19:04.360 products and people

00:19:05.340 will save their

00:19:05.980 money to spend

00:19:06.720 and people will

00:19:07.880 act as though

00:19:08.680 we all agree

00:19:10.200 that things

00:19:10.660 are going to

00:19:10.980 be good

00:19:11.280 at the end

00:19:11.640 of the year

00:19:12.020 and if we

00:19:12.800 act as though

00:19:13.420 it is

00:19:13.700 then it

00:19:13.980 becomes good

00:19:14.580 because the

00:19:15.940 economy is

00:19:16.580 just the

00:19:17.520 result of

00:19:18.100 all the

00:19:18.540 intentions

00:19:19.420 and actions

00:19:20.020 of the

00:19:20.300 people

00:19:20.540 so that's

00:19:21.740 my best

00:19:22.100 answer

00:19:22.400 I don't

00:19:22.880 know if

00:19:23.080 that was

00:19:23.280 any good

00:19:23.620 but thank

00:19:24.400 you

00:19:24.580 all right

00:19:27.160 next question

00:19:28.380 let's see

00:19:30.980 what Bill

00:19:32.580 has to say

00:19:33.460 Bill went

00:19:37.800 away

00:19:38.280 Bill let's

00:19:40.880 try John

00:19:41.660 I don't

00:19:43.420 know why

00:19:43.680 people go

00:19:44.640 away as

00:19:45.040 soon as I

00:19:45.420 select them

00:19:45.920 I don't

00:19:46.120 know if

00:19:46.360 that's a

00:19:46.800 technology

00:19:47.360 thing or

00:19:47.880 a me

00:19:48.120 thing

00:19:48.320 Bill do

00:19:49.800 you have

00:19:49.940 a question

00:19:50.360 Bill do

00:19:53.900 you have

00:19:54.060 a question

00:19:54.500 Bill is

00:19:57.660 not listening

00:19:58.100 to his

00:19:58.440 phone

00:19:58.760 later he's

00:20:02.040 going to

00:20:02.240 say

00:20:02.580 darn it

00:20:03.740 I almost

00:20:05.620 had a

00:20:05.960 phone call

00:20:06.480 let's try

00:20:06.900 Nancy

00:20:07.320 Nancy looks

00:20:08.000 prepared

00:20:08.540 Nancy are

00:20:12.760 you

00:20:12.960 do you

00:20:13.960 have a

00:20:14.140 question

00:20:14.400 for me

00:20:14.800 yes

00:20:19.020 you know

00:20:19.720 what today

00:20:20.360 is

00:20:20.840 is it

00:20:22.160 Easter Sunday

00:20:22.840 it is

00:20:24.060 and

00:20:25.360 I am

00:20:26.560 wondering

00:20:27.200 what you

00:20:28.620 think

00:20:29.140 about

00:20:30.280 something

00:20:30.800 in the

00:20:31.940 world of

00:20:32.260 persuasion

00:20:32.820 that has

00:20:33.780 lasted

00:20:34.400 over

00:20:35.060 2,000

00:20:36.420 years

00:20:37.160 and what

00:20:38.780 actually

00:20:39.440 occurred

00:20:40.900 in those

00:20:42.540 days

00:20:43.260 by

00:20:45.200 a very

00:20:46.280 small

00:20:46.880 group of

00:20:47.620 people

00:20:48.120 that were

00:20:48.680 able to

00:20:49.360 influence

00:20:50.160 the world

00:20:52.440 down through

00:20:53.780 the generations

00:20:54.700 it has

00:20:55.260 continued

00:20:55.860 so how

00:20:56.520 could that

00:20:57.020 have

00:20:57.640 happened

00:20:58.260 well

00:20:59.480 I hate

00:21:00.680 to rock

00:21:01.040 your world

00:21:01.520 I feel

00:21:02.020 bad about

00:21:02.440 I want

00:21:02.960 you to

00:21:03.280 I'm curious

00:21:04.540 what you

00:21:04.980 think

00:21:05.240 I feel

00:21:06.200 bad

00:21:06.620 answering

00:21:07.420 this

00:21:07.680 question

00:21:08.060 on

00:21:08.320 Easter

00:21:08.580 Sunday

00:21:08.940 but

00:21:09.320 you

00:21:10.240 asked

00:21:10.640 and

00:21:11.060 people

00:21:12.040 don't

00:21:12.280 come

00:21:12.500 here

00:21:12.680 to

00:21:12.960 hear

00:21:13.340 me

00:21:13.500 lie

00:21:13.700 to

00:21:13.840 them

00:21:14.000 so

00:21:14.260 I'll

00:21:14.980 give

00:21:15.100 you

00:21:15.200 my

00:21:15.360 honest

00:21:15.620 answer

00:21:15.880 I'm

00:21:16.920 not

00:21:17.480 a

00:21:17.680 religious

00:21:18.080 historian

00:21:18.720 I know

00:21:19.360 but

00:21:19.860 I'll

00:21:20.300 make

00:21:20.520 a

00:21:20.800 statement

00:21:21.600 which

00:21:21.880 I believe

00:21:22.260 to be

00:21:22.600 true

00:21:22.860 things

00:21:23.440 I've

00:21:23.680 heard

00:21:23.860 from

00:21:24.240 religious

00:21:24.860 historians

00:21:25.540 which is

00:21:26.780 that there

00:21:27.220 were lots

00:21:27.980 of traditions

00:21:28.660 and there

00:21:30.720 were lots

00:21:31.040 of other

00:21:31.480 religions

00:21:31.900 that did

00:21:32.420 not survive

00:21:33.220 that had

00:21:33.980 similar

00:21:34.340 characteristics

00:21:35.100 of somebody

00:21:35.840 who was

00:21:36.220 killed

00:21:37.000 and then

00:21:37.460 they were

00:21:37.740 reborn

00:21:38.180 as something

00:21:39.140 bigger

00:21:39.500 so apparently

00:21:40.420 that's just a

00:21:41.240 normal thing

00:21:41.800 that happens

00:21:42.240 with lots

00:21:42.640 of religions

00:21:43.160 so if

00:21:44.140 you go

00:21:44.400 back in

00:21:44.740 time

00:21:44.960 there

00:21:45.140 were

00:21:45.240 lots

00:21:45.460 of

00:21:45.580 different

00:21:45.800 religions

00:21:46.260 and they

00:21:46.960 competed

00:21:47.560 against each

00:21:48.220 other

00:21:48.460 in different

00:21:48.840 ways

00:21:49.180 and something

00:21:50.560 won

00:21:50.880 you know

00:21:51.340 a few

00:21:51.680 of them

00:21:51.940 emerged

00:21:52.420 so

00:21:52.820 Islam

00:21:53.300 emerged

00:21:53.980 and

00:21:54.280 Christianity

00:21:55.620 emerged

00:21:56.440 and lots

00:21:56.940 of different

00:21:57.280 forms of

00:21:57.900 Christianity

00:21:58.300 so I would

00:21:59.320 look at it

00:21:59.700 as just

00:22:00.080 evolution

00:22:00.680 with some

00:22:02.160 kind of

00:22:02.880 survival

00:22:03.340 of the

00:22:03.760 fittest

00:22:04.160 which in

00:22:05.300 some cases

00:22:05.860 has to do

00:22:06.460 with the

00:22:06.860 quality of

00:22:08.100 the story

00:22:10.000 if you will

00:22:10.680 you know

00:22:11.320 does it have

00:22:11.840 a holy book

00:22:12.620 you know

00:22:13.460 is it

00:22:13.880 put together

00:22:14.720 well

00:22:15.160 you know

00:22:15.520 is it

00:22:16.680 promoted

00:22:17.060 by a

00:22:17.540 leader

00:22:17.840 because

00:22:18.620 there were

00:22:19.140 a number

00:22:19.380 of leaders

00:22:19.920 who sort

00:22:21.100 of took

00:22:21.500 up

00:22:21.700 Christianity

00:22:22.100 as their

00:22:22.780 thing

00:22:23.160 now if

00:22:23.880 a few

00:22:24.260 leaders

00:22:24.620 had changed

00:22:25.120 their mind

00:22:25.620 you know

00:22:26.540 if the

00:22:26.980 King of

00:22:27.820 England

00:22:28.140 or you

00:22:29.100 know

00:22:29.660 Charlemagne

00:22:31.200 or I don't

00:22:31.940 know my

00:22:32.260 history

00:22:32.520 but if

00:22:33.580 some of

00:22:34.360 the great

00:22:34.660 leaders

00:22:35.020 just a few

00:22:35.640 of them

00:22:36.000 had simply

00:22:37.040 said no

00:22:37.480 I'm going

00:22:37.780 to pick

00:22:38.000 this other

00:22:38.400 religion

00:22:38.800 probably would

00:22:40.020 have gone

00:22:40.240 a different

00:22:40.580 way

00:22:40.840 so

00:22:41.720 there are

00:22:42.740 a bunch

00:22:42.980 of factors

00:22:43.620 about why

00:22:44.000 one religion

00:22:44.700 does well

00:22:46.060 and one

00:22:46.740 does not

00:22:47.220 but I

00:22:47.740 would pick

00:22:48.540 one thing

00:22:49.100 in particular

00:22:49.740 maybe two

00:22:51.180 things

00:22:51.440 about

00:22:51.800 Christianity

00:22:52.240 that make

00:22:52.700 it work

00:22:53.080 really well

00:22:53.780 persuasion

00:22:54.420 wise

00:22:54.720 to get

00:22:55.060 to your

00:22:55.280 question

00:22:55.580 one is

00:22:57.200 the thought

00:22:58.160 that you

00:22:58.740 can always

00:22:59.320 be saved

00:23:00.080 no matter

00:23:00.720 what bad

00:23:01.620 you did

00:23:02.080 so we'd

00:23:03.200 like to

00:23:03.520 think that

00:23:03.900 we can

00:23:04.400 be good

00:23:04.820 people

00:23:05.140 even if

00:23:05.660 we've

00:23:05.900 done bad

00:23:06.420 things

00:23:06.860 and

00:23:07.640 Christianity

00:23:08.040 directly

00:23:09.420 says

00:23:09.900 yeah you

00:23:10.700 could do

00:23:11.120 terrible

00:23:11.520 things

00:23:11.980 but as

00:23:13.140 long as

00:23:13.480 you're

00:23:13.640 willing to

00:23:14.240 you know

00:23:14.700 at this

00:23:15.020 moment

00:23:15.440 change

00:23:16.920 you know

00:23:17.760 and do

00:23:18.280 the right

00:23:18.640 steps

00:23:18.920 to become

00:23:19.320 more godly

00:23:20.160 according to

00:23:20.680 Christianity

00:23:21.180 then you're

00:23:22.580 saved

00:23:22.900 and you're

00:23:23.660 saved forever

00:23:24.280 and your

00:23:25.020 history is

00:23:26.420 wiped clean

00:23:27.120 I think that

00:23:28.140 is such a

00:23:28.740 seductive

00:23:29.600 and appealing

00:23:31.080 thought

00:23:31.660 because people

00:23:32.480 are wracked

00:23:32.940 by guilt

00:23:33.580 and to

00:23:34.400 have some

00:23:34.780 authority

00:23:35.240 say you

00:23:35.700 know all

00:23:36.180 that guilt

00:23:36.660 you had

00:23:37.100 we all

00:23:38.260 got problems

00:23:38.860 too

00:23:39.160 all you got

00:23:40.060 to do is

00:23:40.560 do these

00:23:41.040 steps

00:23:41.340 say these

00:23:41.840 things

00:23:42.180 you know

00:23:43.020 believe in

00:23:43.840 believe in

00:23:44.360 these things

00:23:44.820 and your

00:23:45.400 history is

00:23:45.980 wiped clean

00:23:46.540 and your

00:23:46.960 guilt is

00:23:47.380 gone

00:23:47.600 so in

00:23:48.260 terms of

00:23:48.600 getting rid

00:23:48.960 of your

00:23:49.140 guilt is

00:23:49.520 great

00:23:49.780 and also

00:23:50.340 it has

00:23:50.680 the advantage

00:23:51.760 that if

00:23:52.160 your life

00:23:52.560 is bad

00:23:53.200 you can

00:23:54.660 always tell

00:23:55.060 yourself

00:23:55.360 you know

00:23:55.640 my life

00:23:56.120 is bad

00:23:56.660 but I'll

00:23:57.480 do these

00:23:57.940 following

00:23:58.580 things to

00:23:59.360 be a good

00:23:59.740 person

00:24:00.180 and then

00:24:01.260 eternity

00:24:02.000 my afterlife

00:24:02.880 will be

00:24:03.340 awesome

00:24:03.780 because I

00:24:05.080 worked hard

00:24:05.620 even though

00:24:06.080 my life

00:24:06.560 was bad

00:24:06.940 so between

00:24:08.040 the fact

00:24:08.420 that it

00:24:08.600 has a

00:24:08.840 payoff

00:24:09.100 of infinity

00:24:10.000 literally

00:24:10.980 forever

00:24:11.860 in heaven

00:24:12.860 that's the

00:24:14.400 best payoff

00:24:14.880 you could

00:24:15.200 possibly have

00:24:15.900 so you

00:24:16.620 would expect

00:24:17.420 that people

00:24:18.960 would work

00:24:19.520 the hardest

00:24:19.980 and you

00:24:21.080 know be

00:24:21.740 the most

00:24:22.280 obedient to

00:24:23.560 whatever

00:24:24.500 promised them

00:24:25.200 the most

00:24:25.580 reward

00:24:26.140 so you

00:24:27.320 see Islam

00:24:27.920 promises a

00:24:28.660 big reward

00:24:29.360 Christianity

00:24:30.080 promises a

00:24:31.080 big reward

00:24:31.600 if you do

00:24:32.020 the right

00:24:32.320 stuff

00:24:32.640 so you

00:24:34.260 know

00:24:34.360 persuasion

00:24:34.820 wise

00:24:35.060 it's fairly

00:24:35.600 straightforward

00:24:37.160 people

00:24:38.580 would do

00:24:39.000 a lot

00:24:39.520 to get

00:24:40.460 a gigantic

00:24:41.120 potential

00:24:41.740 reward

00:24:42.300 even like

00:24:42.960 a lottery

00:24:43.380 you'll buy

00:24:44.140 a lottery

00:24:44.480 ticket

00:24:44.800 even if

00:24:45.200 you have

00:24:45.380 a one

00:24:45.740 in a hundred

00:24:47.140 million chance

00:24:47.780 of winning

00:24:48.140 because if

00:24:49.260 you did win

00:24:49.780 it would be

00:24:50.160 so great

00:24:50.800 you'd be

00:24:52.100 happy

00:24:52.360 so did

00:24:53.640 that answer

00:24:54.040 your question

00:24:54.440 at all

00:24:54.720 well

00:24:56.440 I think

00:24:57.500 that's

00:24:57.860 that's a

00:24:58.320 good shot

00:24:58.900 at it

00:24:59.560 I don't

00:25:00.100 know

00:25:00.400 if it

00:25:00.780 I'm not

00:25:01.880 sure

00:25:02.320 maybe

00:25:03.060 perhaps

00:25:04.360 if it is

00:25:05.340 a big old

00:25:05.920 fairy tale

00:25:06.620 what a good

00:25:07.420 fairy tale

00:25:08.000 it is

00:25:08.580 for so many

00:25:09.260 people down

00:25:09.900 through the

00:25:10.240 generations

00:25:10.720 well keep in

00:25:12.160 mind I didn't

00:25:12.820 say that

00:25:13.420 no you didn't

00:25:14.240 so I try to be

00:25:17.220 more at least

00:25:17.960 lately

00:25:18.340 well I think

00:25:19.720 the thing

00:25:20.100 that you

00:25:20.860 mentioned so

00:25:21.520 often is

00:25:21.960 we can't

00:25:22.340 even remember

00:25:23.000 you know

00:25:24.180 who was in

00:25:24.760 the news

00:25:25.180 last week

00:25:26.020 and who was

00:25:26.580 being persuasive

00:25:27.480 and it just

00:25:28.480 strikes me

00:25:29.200 every year

00:25:29.840 at Christmas

00:25:30.380 and Easter

00:25:31.020 particularly

00:25:31.640 that this

00:25:33.460 man had

00:25:34.840 the most

00:25:36.180 incredible

00:25:36.740 effect on

00:25:37.760 human history

00:25:38.940 out of all

00:25:39.940 people that

00:25:41.020 have ever

00:25:41.360 lived so it

00:25:42.080 just it amazes

00:25:43.420 me because he

00:25:44.140 didn't have any

00:25:44.640 of the tools

00:25:45.440 that we have

00:25:46.580 today and

00:25:47.440 yet it's

00:25:48.320 his influence

00:25:49.440 still exists

00:25:50.700 well or

00:25:51.660 you could say

00:25:52.740 that whoever

00:25:53.840 wrote the

00:25:54.500 Bible were

00:25:55.240 the influential

00:25:55.880 ones because

00:25:57.080 the Bible was

00:25:58.280 written after

00:25:58.940 Jesus' life

00:25:59.940 so if it had

00:26:01.000 not been written

00:26:01.740 in a way that

00:26:02.580 people found

00:26:03.380 influential and

00:26:04.820 persuasive for

00:26:05.620 centuries I

00:26:06.740 don't know that

00:26:07.360 what he did

00:26:08.160 would be so

00:26:09.000 had the impact

00:26:11.260 it had more

00:26:11.940 to do with

00:26:12.840 the people who

00:26:13.920 collected it on

00:26:15.200 paper right

00:26:15.820 would you agree

00:26:16.600 well I don't

00:26:17.440 know about that

00:26:18.240 when you think

00:26:18.740 about Paul who

00:26:19.800 was influenced

00:26:20.500 the most

00:26:21.220 he didn't

00:26:22.360 have the

00:26:23.120 Bible

00:26:23.480 he didn't

00:26:24.040 have you

00:26:24.920 know he

00:26:25.100 was speaking

00:26:25.620 to people

00:26:26.160 about the

00:26:26.720 influence of

00:26:27.440 this man

00:26:28.060 Jesus Christ

00:26:28.900 so it was

00:26:29.920 amazing that

00:26:30.800 Paul didn't

00:26:31.380 have anything

00:26:31.940 to go on

00:26:32.640 except his

00:26:33.200 experience

00:26:33.620 well I did

00:26:34.800 have the

00:26:35.140 message you

00:26:35.780 know I

00:26:36.140 read that

00:26:37.780 turn the

00:26:38.600 other

00:26:38.780 trick didn't

00:26:39.600 really mean

00:26:40.120 what we

00:26:40.500 think it

00:26:40.920 to mean

00:26:41.220 today

00:26:41.640 have you

00:26:41.940 ever heard

00:26:42.200 that

00:26:42.960 yeah I

00:26:45.200 don't know

00:26:45.460 the details

00:26:45.920 but I think

00:26:46.480 turn the

00:26:47.400 other trick

00:26:47.860 was a little

00:26:49.060 bit more

00:26:49.440 aggressive

00:26:49.900 I think in

00:26:51.220 those days it

00:26:51.820 wasn't so much

00:26:52.580 you know hey

00:26:53.500 hit me again

00:26:54.160 and I won't

00:26:54.600 hit you back

00:26:55.220 with the way

00:26:55.680 we interpret it

00:26:56.340 today I think

00:26:57.420 it was it was

00:26:58.180 more of a

00:26:58.920 subtly

00:26:59.980 psychologically

00:27:00.880 aggressive thing

00:27:02.140 I don't know

00:27:02.620 the details

00:27:03.100 but it

00:27:04.260 changed

00:27:04.580 but let me

00:27:05.760 just say this

00:27:06.260 my larger

00:27:07.400 theory of

00:27:07.960 reality is

00:27:08.920 that none

00:27:09.360 of us

00:27:09.800 have brains

00:27:11.200 which are

00:27:11.840 designed to

00:27:12.640 understand reality

00:27:13.720 meaning that

00:27:14.640 a clam

00:27:16.300 doesn't know

00:27:17.660 it's a clam

00:27:18.300 but it also

00:27:19.140 doesn't need

00:27:19.700 to you know

00:27:20.980 my dog

00:27:21.780 doesn't really

00:27:22.960 understand much

00:27:23.720 about this

00:27:24.220 complicated human

00:27:25.300 world that it

00:27:26.060 lives in

00:27:26.520 doesn't need

00:27:27.760 to so as

00:27:28.840 long as the

00:27:29.440 creature can

00:27:30.040 survive and

00:27:30.700 procreate

00:27:31.200 that's all

00:27:31.600 it needs

00:27:32.040 so there's

00:27:33.380 no reason

00:27:33.760 to believe

00:27:34.120 that humans

00:27:34.660 have this

00:27:35.140 extra ability

00:27:36.200 to not only

00:27:37.800 breed and

00:27:38.780 you know

00:27:39.120 procreate and

00:27:39.620 stuff but we

00:27:40.360 can actually

00:27:40.760 understand reality

00:27:42.120 when in fact

00:27:43.160 we watch

00:27:43.720 you know

00:27:44.380 two of us

00:27:45.160 can watch

00:27:45.560 the news

00:27:46.200 on a Tuesday

00:27:47.380 and walk away

00:27:48.180 with completely

00:27:48.720 different realities

00:27:49.580 one will say

00:27:50.640 the president's

00:27:51.300 a crook

00:27:51.620 it's obvious

00:27:52.100 it was right

00:27:52.560 there on the

00:27:52.960 news

00:27:53.260 the other

00:27:53.920 one will say

00:27:54.280 the president's

00:27:55.140 the greatest

00:27:55.520 patriot of all

00:27:56.200 time

00:27:56.480 it's obvious

00:27:56.980 it was right

00:27:57.400 there in the

00:27:57.760 news

00:27:57.960 we both

00:27:58.760 watched it

00:27:59.320 it's obvious

00:28:00.300 and so

00:28:01.460 we can see

00:28:02.200 that even

00:28:02.800 in the simplest

00:28:03.740 situations

00:28:04.540 people will

00:28:05.780 look at the

00:28:06.200 same facts

00:28:06.860 with you know

00:28:07.600 eyes and ears

00:28:08.500 and stuff

00:28:08.960 and come to

00:28:09.800 completely wildly

00:28:10.800 different conclusions

00:28:11.940 about their own

00:28:12.720 reality right

00:28:13.400 that moment

00:28:13.980 like in the

00:28:14.920 moment people

00:28:15.520 are redefining

00:28:16.740 reality wildly

00:28:17.600 differently

00:28:17.980 so

00:28:18.860 when you

00:28:20.980 when somebody

00:28:21.780 says

00:28:22.180 is this

00:28:23.220 religion

00:28:23.680 or that

00:28:24.200 religion

00:28:24.660 true

00:28:25.140 I have

00:28:26.140 the same

00:28:26.500 answer

00:28:26.840 for all

00:28:27.540 of them

00:28:27.840 nothing's

00:28:29.100 true

00:28:29.320 you know

00:28:30.420 not

00:28:30.760 not the

00:28:31.460 not the

00:28:32.580 thing in your

00:28:33.280 hand

00:28:33.760 not the

00:28:34.240 thing you

00:28:34.540 heard on

00:28:34.880 news

00:28:35.220 not what

00:28:36.020 you think

00:28:36.380 of your

00:28:36.660 life

00:28:37.040 your purpose

00:28:37.820 in the

00:28:38.100 world

00:28:38.320 none of

00:28:38.640 it's

00:28:38.780 true

00:28:39.000 because

00:28:39.620 we don't

00:28:39.980 have

00:28:40.320 the

00:28:40.680 equipment

00:28:41.100 meaning

00:28:41.700 our

00:28:41.940 brain

00:28:42.340 our

00:28:43.120 brain

00:28:43.380 is not

00:28:43.680 designed

00:28:44.020 to tell

00:28:44.360 us

00:28:44.480 what's

00:28:44.720 true

00:28:45.000 it's

00:28:45.880 just

00:28:46.220 designed

00:28:46.600 to keep

00:28:46.960 us

00:28:47.120 alive

00:28:47.600 and for

00:28:48.340 that

00:28:48.720 telling

00:28:49.580 us

00:28:49.800 little

00:28:50.040 stories

00:28:50.600 does

00:28:51.400 fine

00:28:51.760 so

00:28:52.640 is it

00:28:53.160 true

00:28:53.340 that

00:28:53.520 any

00:28:53.740 of us

00:28:54.000 have

00:28:54.160 the

00:28:54.320 right

00:28:54.540 little

00:28:54.800 story

00:28:55.220 so

00:28:56.020 might

00:28:56.320 it

00:28:56.440 be

00:28:56.620 that

00:28:56.880 the

00:28:57.140 the

00:28:57.380 Hindus

00:28:57.720 for

00:28:58.080 example

00:28:58.460 are

00:28:59.180 the

00:28:59.320 only

00:28:59.500 people

00:28:59.820 who are

00:29:00.060 getting

00:29:00.200 the

00:29:00.380 right

00:29:00.620 story

00:29:01.040 and

00:29:01.580 everybody

00:29:01.840 else

00:29:02.120 is

00:29:02.300 interpreting

00:29:02.740 it

00:29:02.940 wildly

00:29:03.240 different

00:29:03.620 the Muslims

00:29:05.160 and the

00:29:05.520 Christians

00:29:05.840 I don't

00:29:06.760 think so

00:29:07.260 I don't

00:29:08.060 think so

00:29:08.500 that seems

00:29:09.420 possible

00:29:10.380 I mean

00:29:10.860 you can't

00:29:11.220 rule it

00:29:11.600 out

00:29:11.840 but it

00:29:12.520 seems

00:29:12.740 far more

00:29:13.300 likely

00:29:13.720 that all

00:29:14.440 the evidence

00:29:14.840 suggests

00:29:15.320 that none

00:29:15.800 of us

00:29:16.200 have

00:29:17.220 an accurate

00:29:18.440 view of

00:29:18.980 reality

00:29:19.400 and we've

00:29:20.220 all created

00:29:20.900 these stories

00:29:21.860 that exist

00:29:22.560 in our

00:29:22.900 heads

00:29:23.220 which are

00:29:24.180 internally

00:29:24.660 consistent

00:29:25.300 to us

00:29:26.120 but sound

00:29:27.020 like nonsense

00:29:27.700 often when we

00:29:28.940 explain it to

00:29:29.560 someone who has

00:29:30.100 a different

00:29:30.420 movie in their

00:29:31.000 head

00:29:31.260 so I don't

00:29:33.000 say that

00:29:33.580 Jesus is

00:29:35.540 real or

00:29:36.000 not real

00:29:36.480 that Islam

00:29:37.600 is real or

00:29:38.200 not really

00:29:38.640 real or

00:29:39.200 anything else

00:29:39.680 I say that

00:29:40.680 we don't have

00:29:41.220 the capacity

00:29:41.740 to know

00:29:42.140 what's real

00:29:42.600 so whether

00:29:44.140 there is a

00:29:44.860 real version

00:29:45.840 of religion

00:29:46.360 or not

00:29:47.080 there isn't

00:29:48.700 any chance

00:29:49.140 we'd find

00:29:49.700 it

00:29:50.140 except by

00:29:51.520 luck

00:29:51.900 you know

00:29:52.520 so there

00:29:53.040 are so many

00:29:53.420 religions

00:29:53.960 that if one

00:29:55.060 of them is

00:29:55.500 right

00:29:55.920 it doesn't

00:29:56.540 matter which

00:29:56.900 one

00:29:57.220 if one of

00:29:58.140 them is

00:29:58.440 like bang

00:29:59.000 on

00:29:59.320 it does

00:30:00.300 mean all

00:30:00.700 the rest

00:30:01.040 of them

00:30:01.300 are wrong

00:30:01.860 and you

00:30:02.880 don't know

00:30:03.280 which group

00:30:03.760 you're in

00:30:04.180 that's the

00:30:04.660 problem

00:30:05.220 all right

00:30:05.580 I hope I

00:30:06.240 didn't

00:30:06.520 reprogram

00:30:08.440 it

00:30:08.580 can I say

00:30:09.120 just one

00:30:09.580 last thing

00:30:10.200 sure

00:30:10.500 I have

00:30:11.260 so I

00:30:12.840 am a

00:30:13.240 believer

00:30:13.600 but I

00:30:14.680 have loved

00:30:15.700 for the

00:30:16.300 first time

00:30:16.940 years ago

00:30:17.500 when you

00:30:17.820 first introduced

00:30:18.600 the idea

00:30:19.280 of the

00:30:19.700 simulation

00:30:20.340 it has

00:30:21.660 just been

00:30:22.200 fascinating

00:30:22.740 to me

00:30:23.580 that and

00:30:25.160 I see

00:30:25.620 evidence of

00:30:26.420 it over

00:30:26.960 and over

00:30:27.540 and over

00:30:28.060 and yet

00:30:28.800 the flip

00:30:29.800 side of

00:30:30.440 that is

00:30:31.320 that in

00:30:31.780 this world

00:30:32.680 the Christian

00:30:33.800 belief world

00:30:35.000 we call

00:30:35.760 those Easter

00:30:36.880 blessings

00:30:37.800 blessings

00:30:38.040 and for

00:30:38.840 me

00:30:39.640 you

00:30:40.340 are

00:30:40.780 today's

00:30:41.560 Easter

00:30:41.980 blessing

00:30:42.480 happy

00:30:42.920 Easter

00:30:43.360 Scott

00:30:43.820 oh

00:30:44.360 you're

00:30:44.620 so

00:30:44.780 nice

00:30:45.080 I love

00:30:45.500 you

00:30:45.640 thanks

00:30:46.020 have a

00:30:46.820 great

00:30:46.960 day

00:30:47.240 bye

00:30:47.640 bye

00:30:47.840 I like

00:30:50.640 when people

00:30:51.080 are in a

00:30:51.420 good mood

00:30:51.820 just because

00:30:52.380 it's Easter

00:30:53.420 maybe she's

00:30:54.020 in a good

00:30:54.300 mood all

00:30:54.680 the time

00:30:55.040 I don't

00:30:55.420 know

00:30:55.720 let's see

00:30:57.920 what Omar

00:30:58.340 has to

00:30:58.800 say

00:30:59.080 Omar

00:31:01.480 may the

00:31:03.640 gods of

00:31:04.040 technology

00:31:04.700 connect us

00:31:06.120 but it

00:31:06.900 looks like

00:31:07.460 they may

00:31:08.940 not

00:31:09.320 so

00:31:11.780 Omar

00:31:12.180 has got

00:31:12.660 some

00:31:12.840 technical

00:31:13.220 difficulty

00:31:13.880 come back

00:31:14.460 Omar

00:31:14.800 come back

00:31:16.440 let's try

00:31:17.820 Jan

00:31:18.200 Jan

00:31:20.880 Jan

00:31:21.500 do you

00:31:21.780 have a

00:31:21.980 question

00:31:22.240 Jan

00:31:22.580 happy

00:31:26.280 Easter

00:31:26.660 what's

00:31:27.620 your

00:31:27.720 question

00:31:27.980 I've

00:31:28.460 got an

00:31:28.860 idea

00:31:29.220 and I

00:31:29.500 wanted to

00:31:29.860 see what

00:31:30.180 you thought

00:31:30.560 about it

00:31:30.960 so this

00:31:31.300 is a

00:31:31.620 really

00:31:31.960 rough

00:31:32.460 idea

00:31:32.920 I was

00:31:33.380 talking

00:31:33.640 about it

00:31:34.020 with my

00:31:34.340 husband

00:31:34.680 yesterday

00:31:35.220 with the

00:31:35.780 restaurants

00:31:36.400 being

00:31:36.820 I think

00:31:37.980 the

00:31:38.160 restaurants

00:31:38.540 are going

00:31:38.820 to have

00:31:39.080 a hard

00:31:39.400 time

00:31:39.820 coming

00:31:40.180 back

00:31:40.580 they're

00:31:40.780 going

00:31:40.880 to have

00:31:41.120 to get

00:31:41.400 really

00:31:41.680 creative

00:31:42.200 so what

00:31:43.140 do you

00:31:43.360 think

00:31:43.760 about a

00:31:44.560 handheld

00:31:45.260 mouth

00:31:46.340 shield

00:31:46.780 that you

00:31:47.380 could have

00:31:47.960 the restaurants

00:31:48.800 could provide

00:31:49.600 and now

00:31:51.280 this is a

00:31:51.740 rough idea

00:31:52.340 and they

00:31:53.240 would

00:31:53.680 they could

00:31:54.620 brand it

00:31:55.220 they could

00:31:55.620 make them

00:31:56.000 look kind

00:31:56.400 of fancy

00:31:57.740 or funky

00:31:58.380 down the

00:31:58.880 road

00:31:59.200 but the

00:31:59.760 idea is

00:32:00.220 you can

00:32:00.440 see people's

00:32:01.220 mouths

00:32:01.700 and they

00:32:02.520 would have

00:32:02.880 this little

00:32:03.280 handheld shield

00:32:04.320 and they

00:32:04.920 could take

00:32:05.280 it with

00:32:05.620 them

00:32:05.860 a

00:32:06.860 handheld

00:32:07.320 shield

00:32:07.900 so the

00:32:09.300 kind that

00:32:09.840 the medical

00:32:10.440 professionals

00:32:11.080 attach to

00:32:12.160 their head

00:32:12.540 is that what

00:32:12.900 you're talking

00:32:13.160 about

00:32:13.360 well no I'm

00:32:14.240 talking about

00:32:14.780 like you know

00:32:15.340 how the old

00:32:15.940 fans many

00:32:16.820 years and

00:32:17.400 decades maybe

00:32:18.500 centuries ago

00:32:19.260 women would

00:32:19.860 hold those

00:32:20.320 little fans

00:32:20.900 and they would

00:32:21.300 sort of

00:32:21.560 wave it at

00:32:22.080 themselves

00:32:22.580 but instead

00:32:23.860 it would be

00:32:25.020 like a fixed

00:32:26.820 it wouldn't

00:32:27.460 open up

00:32:28.200 like a fan

00:32:29.500 and be solid

00:32:30.280 or opaque

00:32:31.020 it would be

00:32:31.860 a clear

00:32:32.360 translucent

00:32:33.240 piece if

00:32:34.740 you will

00:32:35.200 held on

00:32:36.120 a stick

00:32:36.660 and you

00:32:37.180 would hold

00:32:37.520 it up

00:32:37.780 to your

00:32:38.040 face

00:32:38.540 while you

00:32:39.300 were talking

00:32:39.820 at a

00:32:40.120 restaurant

00:32:40.500 well you

00:32:41.700 know I

00:32:42.780 will use

00:32:43.140 the same

00:32:43.440 argument I

00:32:43.980 use for

00:32:44.340 face masks

00:32:45.000 which is

00:32:45.640 it seems

00:32:46.080 to me that

00:32:46.560 anything that

00:32:47.260 is a barrier

00:32:48.020 to the

00:32:48.700 force of the

00:32:49.920 air coming

00:32:50.360 out of your

00:32:50.680 mouth should

00:32:51.820 make some

00:32:52.480 difference

00:32:53.000 but I

00:32:53.760 would you

00:32:54.200 know the

00:32:54.620 obvious thing

00:32:55.160 is that if

00:32:55.900 you have a

00:32:56.220 mask on it's

00:32:57.560 going to keep

00:32:57.980 the air closer

00:32:58.600 to your face

00:32:59.280 if you have a

00:32:59.940 flat object in

00:33:00.860 front of you

00:33:01.380 seems like

00:33:02.360 your air would

00:33:03.060 still sort of

00:33:04.180 escape around

00:33:04.880 it but it

00:33:05.660 would stop a

00:33:06.600 little bit of

00:33:07.140 it my it

00:33:08.480 my thought is

00:33:09.400 that it would

00:33:09.780 be hard to

00:33:10.160 make that

00:33:10.520 widespread and

00:33:12.000 it would be

00:33:12.280 hard to convince

00:33:13.020 people it made

00:33:13.720 enough of a

00:33:14.400 difference for

00:33:15.700 them to take

00:33:16.320 the effort to

00:33:17.220 to use them

00:33:18.060 and have

00:33:18.340 something in

00:33:18.800 one hand

00:33:19.400 and it's

00:33:21.780 good thinking

00:33:22.260 I like where

00:33:23.460 you're going

00:33:23.840 with this

00:33:24.300 because I

00:33:25.180 like the I

00:33:26.400 like the general

00:33:27.260 thinking of is

00:33:28.720 there some other

00:33:29.440 thing you can do

00:33:30.240 with your face

00:33:31.040 mouth area

00:33:31.840 to get us

00:33:34.300 past that

00:33:34.640 so I like the

00:33:35.160 thinking I'm

00:33:36.520 not enough of a

00:33:37.200 scientist to know

00:33:37.900 how much of a

00:33:38.440 difference that

00:33:38.860 would be but

00:33:39.340 as somebody says

00:33:40.520 in the comments

00:33:41.140 maybe some

00:33:42.740 I mean if

00:33:43.680 if coughing into

00:33:44.660 your elbow makes

00:33:45.400 a difference

00:33:45.920 make some

00:33:47.780 difference if you

00:33:48.560 can get people

00:33:49.060 to do it

00:33:49.760 anyway interesting

00:33:50.940 idea thank you

00:33:51.680 for that

00:33:52.020 thanks

00:33:52.640 hi

00:33:53.300 any any ideas

00:33:58.820 that require and

00:33:59.860 then everybody

00:34:00.460 will do X is

00:34:01.960 always a problem

00:34:02.720 because getting

00:34:03.520 everybody to do

00:34:04.400 X is pretty

00:34:05.960 darn hard

00:34:07.160 all right I'm

00:34:10.900 going to add a

00:34:11.460 studio hello

00:34:14.300 caller do you

00:34:15.080 have a question

00:34:15.520 for me

00:34:15.980 caller I'm

00:34:19.420 talking to you

00:34:20.000 but you don't

00:34:20.400 know it yes

00:34:21.000 hi um

00:34:22.560 DJ DJ LC

00:34:23.900 studio yeah

00:34:25.460 when you're

00:34:26.640 writing the

00:34:27.120 Dilbert comics

00:34:27.940 do you think

00:34:29.040 that you're

00:34:29.880 kind of going

00:34:30.340 through the

00:34:30.620 process of

00:34:31.300 having conversations

00:34:32.120 with yourself

00:34:32.760 the internal

00:34:36.240 process I don't

00:34:37.380 know if anybody's

00:34:37.960 ever asked me

00:34:38.460 this question

00:34:38.920 which is actually

00:34:39.560 a really good

00:34:40.080 question the

00:34:42.060 internal process

00:34:42.940 I have when I'm

00:34:43.540 writing it is that

00:34:44.360 I usually start

00:34:45.040 with some concept

00:34:45.980 so it's something

00:34:47.060 that bothers people

00:34:48.060 something that

00:34:48.700 happens a lot in

00:34:49.380 the office and

00:34:50.640 then I then I

00:34:51.480 say well which

00:34:52.360 characters would

00:34:53.580 make sense to be

00:34:55.340 interacting around

00:34:56.220 this concept and

00:34:57.280 it's usually pretty

00:34:58.300 obvious you know if

00:34:59.480 it's sort of a nerdy

00:35:01.260 thing it's Dilbert if

00:35:02.600 it's a boss thing it's

00:35:03.520 the boss etc so then

00:35:06.020 I've got the concept

00:35:06.980 I've got the

00:35:07.560 characters and then I

00:35:08.940 say all right where

00:35:09.660 are they and it's

00:35:10.920 usually in the office

00:35:11.820 and then I say all

00:35:13.460 right who would start

00:35:14.800 the conversation now

00:35:16.600 as a writer here's a

00:35:19.740 little writing trick

00:35:20.720 people have said they

00:35:21.720 really like this

00:35:22.360 writing trick so I'll

00:35:23.380 repeat it if you want

00:35:25.520 a dialogue to look

00:35:27.100 sort of realistic even

00:35:30.160 though it's in comic

00:35:31.240 form but enough

00:35:32.500 realism that people

00:35:33.380 say oh that happened

00:35:34.280 to me you avoid asking

00:35:36.120 questions because it's

00:35:38.560 really easy as a writer

00:35:39.500 to say okay it's two

00:35:40.480 people talking the first

00:35:41.520 one asks a question the

00:35:42.660 second one answers that

00:35:44.220 becomes boring right

00:35:45.340 away now you can't

00:35:46.900 avoid it because in

00:35:48.000 the real world people

00:35:48.780 do ask questions and

00:35:49.760 stuff so I of course

00:35:50.760 include questions of

00:35:51.780 the comic but the

00:35:53.040 first thing I tell

00:35:53.720 myself is can I

00:35:55.080 rewrite it without a

00:35:56.060 question so I always

00:35:57.740 have that that thought

00:35:59.420 in my head so I start

00:36:00.860 writing the comic and

00:36:01.880 you know I reflexively

00:36:03.160 because everybody does

00:36:04.060 first line is a

00:36:05.280 question I go okay my

00:36:07.360 rule is if I can

00:36:09.360 avoid it the first line

00:36:11.360 of dialogue should not

00:36:13.560 be a question should be

00:36:15.000 a statement because in

00:36:16.240 the real world people

00:36:17.380 don't care what you

00:36:18.400 think 99% of the time

00:36:22.240 nobody cares what you

00:36:23.380 think they simply tell

00:36:24.580 you what they think

00:36:25.440 they try to get what

00:36:26.700 they want they try to

00:36:27.600 move their agenda they

00:36:28.900 try to be selfish so if

00:36:31.360 you write dialogue write

00:36:33.440 it for people who are

00:36:34.280 being selfish self

00:36:35.540 absorbed and don't care

00:36:36.620 a bit about the other

00:36:37.640 people unless you know

00:36:40.300 happens to be a

00:36:40.940 character that that is

00:36:41.960 their very character you

00:36:43.760 know characteristic that

00:36:44.720 they care about people

00:36:45.520 but that'd be the

00:36:46.100 exception but the

00:36:47.340 ordinary people to make

00:36:49.340 them look like real

00:36:51.100 people in real

00:36:51.760 situations make them

00:36:53.440 super selfish and then

00:36:55.200 the audience will say

00:36:56.540 oh yeah I've had that

00:36:58.300 feeling before because

00:36:59.900 you're trying to get to

00:37:00.840 people's internal

00:37:01.780 thoughts you know not

00:37:03.180 the ones that they let

00:37:04.020 other people see so our

00:37:07.380 internal thoughts tend to

00:37:08.660 be far more selfish and

00:37:11.020 and dark than the ones

00:37:13.120 we let the rest of the

00:37:13.940 world see so if you're

00:37:15.320 writing dialogue and

00:37:16.420 you're trying to

00:37:16.860 entertain people it's

00:37:18.360 often good to have have

00:37:19.620 your characters make

00:37:20.460 statements that match

00:37:22.440 people's dark selfish

00:37:23.800 thoughts that always

00:37:25.300 works like it if there's

00:37:27.120 one trick of writing use

00:37:29.180 that one all right so

00:37:30.180 then the question is does

00:37:31.920 it become kind of a

00:37:32.700 dialogue in my head I

00:37:33.800 think that's where you

00:37:34.460 were heading with that

00:37:35.100 like do I hear the

00:37:36.440 dialogue is that what you're

00:37:37.300 asking kind of so it

00:37:39.600 reminds me a lot if

00:37:40.600 you're familiar with

00:37:41.440 what Jordan Peterson

00:37:42.320 talks about with

00:37:43.360 archetypes it kind of

00:37:44.520 seems that a lot of

00:37:45.320 your characters are kind

00:37:46.260 of archetypes yeah they

00:37:48.920 they very much are if

00:37:50.300 you one of the things

00:37:51.460 that reinforces that is

00:37:53.000 if you were to try to

00:37:55.380 map the Dilbert

00:37:56.320 characters the way they

00:37:57.460 exist into an existing

00:37:59.240 chess set you could do

00:38:01.500 it more easily than you

00:38:02.780 imagine that is to say

00:38:04.220 you would quite easily

00:38:05.860 know who the king was

00:38:07.080 which would be the

00:38:08.160 boss you would know

00:38:09.380 who the queen is because

00:38:10.420 the queen is the most

00:38:11.280 powerful character and

00:38:12.540 female that's Alice so

00:38:14.700 they map you know the

00:38:16.100 the one that looks like

00:38:17.760 a castle you know with

00:38:18.860 a little square castle

00:38:20.200 he had sort of even

00:38:21.340 looks like Dilbert and

00:38:22.820 Dilbert goes in straight

00:38:23.860 lines you know he's an

00:38:25.000 engineer I can only go

00:38:26.020 in a straight line so you

00:38:28.260 know and I shook the

00:38:29.420 the intern he's a pawn

00:38:30.860 he's literally smaller and

00:38:32.720 you know expendable in the

00:38:34.000 world of Dilbert because

00:38:34.900 he's just an intern and

00:38:36.760 and if you look at and

00:38:38.740 of course a dog bird would

00:38:39.980 be the the knight the

00:38:41.500 little horse because you

00:38:43.220 don't see a common it's

00:38:44.320 like oh two two over and

00:38:45.580 one over I didn't see that

00:38:46.560 coming so it's it's quite

00:38:50.660 common that you take any

00:38:52.820 popular TV show and you

00:38:55.860 can map it right into a

00:38:56.960 chess set because to your

00:38:58.480 point we have these

00:38:59.460 universal feelings of

00:39:02.040 categories of people and

00:39:04.060 we sort of automatically

00:39:05.040 our brains put people

00:39:06.120 into categories these

00:39:07.160 these archetypes as you

00:39:08.400 say so so there's that

00:39:11.220 but anyway to answer your

00:39:12.420 question once I have the

00:39:13.340 the characters set up and

00:39:15.040 I've got the situation and

00:39:17.120 the first try I ask a

00:39:18.480 question and they say no

00:39:19.620 no no don't make it a

00:39:20.400 question make it a

00:39:21.580 statement make it selfish

00:39:22.800 make it stupid that looks

00:39:24.360 like a person and then I

00:39:26.480 just iterate so I can

00:39:28.600 actually hear them talking

00:39:29.940 to me as if they're the

00:39:31.940 ones talking and I don't

00:39:34.680 know if I could always do

00:39:36.020 that or if that's just

00:39:36.940 practice or if everybody

00:39:38.340 could do that easily I

00:39:39.440 don't know but in my mind

00:39:41.160 I can actually just see

00:39:42.680 them and then they start

00:39:44.400 talking and so Dilbert

00:39:46.040 will say you know my

00:39:47.740 project is heading toward a

00:39:50.400 wall or something and

00:39:51.600 they'll look at it and

00:39:52.280 they'll say no he wouldn't

00:39:53.840 say it that way and then

00:39:54.860 he says it a different way

00:39:55.900 I go no that's not the way

00:39:57.800 Dilbert would talk either and

00:39:58.880 then Dilbert says something

00:39:59.800 else I go that's Dilbert

00:40:00.940 okay that's what Dilbert

00:40:02.700 would say and that's my

00:40:03.760 first sentence and then I

00:40:05.380 go from there and just

00:40:06.220 iterate when I get to the

00:40:07.680 end if there's something

00:40:08.960 about the timing or the

00:40:10.020 setup that didn't work I

00:40:11.620 can go back and tweak

00:40:12.580 things so that the you know

00:40:14.300 the the pace of the timing

00:40:15.660 end at the right place but

00:40:17.200 it's very iterative and it

00:40:19.200 is it is more like listening

00:40:21.200 than creating and that's the

00:40:24.020 part that people who are not

00:40:26.740 naturally creative probably

00:40:29.280 find to be the magic part

00:40:31.180 I don't know because you

00:40:33.800 only know you only know your

00:40:35.200 own brain so you don't know

00:40:36.220 what anybody else's internal

00:40:37.520 process is like well that

00:40:39.000 reminds me that reminds me of

00:40:41.200 a poem that I wrote which is I

00:40:42.940 can't stop writing poetry when I

00:40:44.560 reread I wrote and judge myself

00:40:46.880 yeah yeah so judging yourself and

00:40:51.560 rewriting is really the process

00:40:53.260 of writing so hating what you

00:40:55.780 just wrote is the most

00:40:57.860 dominant part of writing and

00:41:00.320 also something else you said

00:41:01.620 and then this will be the last

00:41:03.080 thing because you got plenty of

00:41:04.060 other important callers to get

00:41:05.160 to which is in Greek mythology

00:41:07.940 like they kind of represent

00:41:10.100 different architects like there's

00:41:11.480 like the god of love and the god

00:41:12.680 of war and all that stuff and

00:41:14.260 people were basically compelled by

00:41:16.820 those different gods and they

00:41:18.220 were like consumed or one could

00:41:20.480 say possessed by those gods and

00:41:22.540 something you were saying also

00:41:24.580 reminded me of a different poem I

00:41:25.840 wrote a long time ago about chess

00:41:27.300 but yeah so those are some

00:41:30.740 thoughts

00:41:31.020 all right thanks for the thoughts

00:41:33.920 all right take care all right

00:41:37.260 let's take another caller let's see

00:41:40.780 if

00:41:41.160 see if Larry has something to say

00:41:45.180 Larry Larry Larry are you there do

00:41:51.620 you have a question yes I can hear

00:41:54.860 you go ahead so I had a couple of

00:41:58.420 different thoughts one is about Bill

00:41:59.660 Gates and the other is about Joe

00:42:00.880 Biden which would you prefer

00:42:01.960 Bill Gates or Joe Biden you mean for

00:42:05.740 president no no questions about

00:42:08.480 topics oh give me Bill Gates all right

00:42:12.240 so Gates is apparently setting up

00:42:15.620 vaccine factories for seven different

00:42:19.020 promising vaccines which seems like an

00:42:21.440 incredibly you know generous and

00:42:23.220 proactive thing to do is going to

00:42:25.360 they're you know the Gates Foundation

00:42:27.120 is going to produce them just in case

00:42:29.000 they're viable so that you don't have

00:42:31.120 to wait but then all these conspiracy

00:42:34.340 theories pop up you know Bill Gates

00:42:36.140 is going to put you know micro

00:42:39.940 controllers in us and just it seems

00:42:42.640 idiotic why does that happen and how

00:42:44.980 can how can the Gates Foundation stop it

00:42:47.900 from happening well some of it has to

00:42:50.500 do with Bill Gates you know legacy

00:42:53.040 reputation because when he was making

00:42:55.080 his money as a young man he was he was

00:42:57.940 pretty much a shark so he would at least

00:43:02.260 he was famous for I wasn't there so I

00:43:04.820 can't judge it personally but he was

00:43:06.540 famous for let's say bending the ethical

00:43:09.340 limits at least within you know what's a

00:43:12.600 monopoly what is fair competition and

00:43:14.680 that sort of thing so he has that which

00:43:18.420 will always dog him but I think those

00:43:21.340 were also the the actions of a younger a

00:43:25.020 younger man and he always said that his

00:43:27.400 goal was to make a bunch of money and

00:43:28.680 then give it away intelligently and now

00:43:31.080 he is but I've said this before and I'll

00:43:33.800 probably say it a million times I'm

00:43:36.060 almost positive that Bill Gates is

00:43:38.140 exactly what you see meaning that

00:43:40.480 there's just nothing there's just no

00:43:42.760 pretense largely because he doesn't

00:43:44.860 need to he doesn't need your money

00:43:46.720 he's literally trying to give his money

00:43:49.120 away so the thought that he would have

00:43:53.620 something to gain either politically or

00:43:56.500 monetarily flies in the face of

00:43:59.000 everything you know about him because

00:44:01.040 I remember you said a couple years ago

00:44:03.580 you have you know you don't care you

00:44:05.260 have a few money and he's got a thousand

00:44:07.700 times the money that you have so think

00:44:10.760 you think about all the rumors and

00:44:12.380 complaints that go around about George

00:44:14.260 Soros right Soros is a rich guy but

00:44:17.360 he's just a fraction as rich as Bill

00:44:20.120 Gates if Bill Gates wanted power he

00:44:23.240 would be buying it directly he would be

00:44:24.980 doing what George Soros does have you

00:44:26.760 ever heard of Bill Gates buying power

00:44:29.020 anywhere I haven't have you ever seen

00:44:32.000 Bill Gates express that like clever

00:44:34.760 interest like oh I'd never run for

00:44:36.860 president gosh I'm certainly honored that

00:44:40.540 everybody's asking me but no I'm

00:44:43.220 focused on you know that thing where he

00:44:45.580 really wants to be president he's never

00:44:47.840 done that no he's just eradicating

00:44:49.820 malaria polio right right so I think

00:44:53.160 Bill Gates thinks that an elected job

00:44:55.660 would be a move back which I would think

00:44:59.140 if you if you asked me what is more

00:45:01.200 honorable and important president of the

00:45:04.460 United States or Bill Gates doing what

00:45:06.860 he's doing now I don't know we could get

00:45:09.280 somebody else to be president like you

00:45:11.400 could fill that job with other capable

00:45:13.100 people but how do you get another Bill

00:45:15.540 Gates foundation like trying to cure

00:45:18.300 malaria and stuff I mean that's that's a

00:45:19.940 one-off so I think that Bill Gates has

00:45:22.740 he can't be trying to get a promotion

00:45:24.980 because he already has the most honorable

00:45:27.900 important job on the planet he does need

00:45:31.660 money so so he doesn't have a motivation

00:45:34.700 and and here's another factor which maybe I

00:45:37.800 have a little special feeling for if you've

00:45:41.660 seen some documentaries about him he's not

00:45:45.020 normal meaning that he looks like maybe it's

00:45:49.120 Asperger's I don't know what it is but he has

00:45:51.380 the ability to focus incredibly now one of

00:45:54.660 the things that comes with that and this

00:45:56.700 is me speculating a little bit some I'm a

00:45:59.000 little further than where I should be but

00:46:01.620 just for fun part of the you know the

00:46:04.740 double the other side of the coin for

00:46:06.800 that intense focus and whatever the you

00:46:09.400 know being on the spectrum gives you which

00:46:11.600 is like a superpower in his case it also

00:46:13.700 makes you fairly honest and blunt so he's

00:46:17.700 not the kind of guy who could hide it I feel

00:46:20.660 like I feel like even when he was you know

00:46:23.480 being you know a capitalist evil guy during

00:46:26.800 his his Microsoft days I don't know if

00:46:29.100 anything was hidden it was just raw power

00:46:32.420 right I mean mostly he I don't think

00:46:34.980 anybody ever said you know Bill Gates told

00:46:37.620 me something I thought he was lying you've

00:46:39.700 never heard that have you ever heard one

00:46:44.860 accusation in the entire in the entire

00:46:47.820 history of Bill Gates has anybody ever

00:46:50.380 even one time accused him of lying think

00:46:55.060 about it think about how famous he is and

00:46:57.460 how long he's been in the public eye can

00:46:59.540 you think of one example where somebody

00:47:02.500 credibly said that Bill Gates himself as

00:47:04.700 opposed to somebody else at Microsoft ever

00:47:07.760 one time has even been accused of lying think

00:47:12.060 about it almost everybody's been accused of

00:47:14.420 lying I don't know that he ever has been

00:47:17.160 anyway somebody will think of an example

00:47:19.680 perhaps but no I'm I am I'm 100% confident

00:47:24.920 that Bill Gates is the real thing because

00:47:28.000 all of the incentive would be for him to be

00:47:30.300 the real thing that all of his incentive

00:47:32.480 there's no incentive for him to be anything

00:47:34.440 except exactly what he's showing you he

00:47:37.200 doesn't have anything to gain so but good

00:47:39.480 good question lots and lots of conspiracy

00:47:41.640 theories here in the comments yeah they're

00:47:43.800 among us I don't believe all right thanks

00:47:46.120 for the question let's take another maybe we

00:47:50.720 can do one more

00:47:51.760 let's see what TLC is up to TLC can you hear

00:48:00.580 me

00:48:00.860 morning do you have a question I actually

00:48:05.700 have an idea that I wanted to run by you

00:48:07.560 to see what you think okay good so trying

00:48:10.520 to problem solve how we get the economy

00:48:12.520 back open and do that in a way that keeps

00:48:16.240 everybody safe right thinking the least

00:48:19.600 vulnerable group seems to be teenagers okay

00:48:23.940 so what's preventing teenagers from taking

00:48:27.360 on what Mike Rowe called the dirty jobs that

00:48:29.900 are keeping the country moving well yeah I

00:48:34.260 think that's effectively what's going to

00:48:36.560 happen but maybe without the under 18

00:48:38.820 people because if you're under 30 you're

00:48:40.920 also pretty pretty safe relatively speaking

00:48:43.800 yeah I wouldn't be surprised if you see

00:48:47.620 that the people who have jobs that are

00:48:49.840 under I don't know 50 let's say do go back

00:48:52.360 to their own jobs but you might see to your

00:48:55.000 point young people filling in for the people

00:48:58.640 who can't go back to their job so I can see

00:49:01.600 that that would make sense as a temporary

00:49:04.000 situation maybe yeah yeah and I'm thinking

00:49:06.460 I'm from a manufacturing background and

00:49:09.400 there's this you know dearth of kids that

00:49:12.360 are going into these trade schools so now

00:49:14.680 that they're all not in regular school we

00:49:16.880 can send them into these jobs keep them

00:49:21.040 away from adults if you want to we've got

00:49:23.300 empty hotels all over the place empty dorm

00:49:25.900 room yeah you know I think you you hint

00:49:31.520 toward a bigger point which is everybody

00:49:33.820 is going to be really creative and

00:49:36.340 flexible about how to get this done so I

00:49:38.780 don't think there's even one element of

00:49:40.960 society that isn't under review right now

00:49:43.300 that we've never seen this before which is

00:49:45.480 part of the reason that I'm confident

00:49:47.580 about the future the future being you know

00:49:50.460 2021 and beyond because the amount of

00:49:53.820 innovation that this is going to sort of

00:49:56.580 accidentally trigger because we've we've

00:49:59.120 critically re-examined everything we do

00:50:03.240 from the from the bottom up as if it

00:50:05.200 didn't exist and we have to start from

00:50:07.660 scratch and say okay what if I always had

00:50:11.600 to give food in a world in which I

00:50:13.680 couldn't be around other people how would

00:50:15.640 I do it and then you think about delivery

00:50:17.800 and stuff and and so systems are being

00:50:21.580 modified just all over the place like

00:50:23.800 crazy just a ton of creativity and a b

00:50:26.480 testing going on so a lot of good stuff

00:50:29.500 happening I'm positive about that yeah

00:50:32.600 me too I'm with you on that and I have

00:50:34.060 one more thing that I'd like to see what

00:50:36.460 your thoughts are I'm not sure if there

00:50:38.940 was an article I believe two three days

00:50:40.800 ago in the Wall Street Journal about

00:50:42.360 farmers dumping milk and throwing out

00:50:45.200 cheese and this is an issue with

00:50:47.060 packaging right so there's HRI food which

00:50:51.660 is hotels restaurants industrial food

00:50:53.620 packaging and production and then

00:50:55.880 there's regular stuff we get in the

00:50:57.140 supermarket right and now more food is

00:51:00.120 consumed outside of the home

00:51:01.340 traditionally so now the week they can't

00:51:05.120 shift those lines over to package it in a

00:51:07.140 way that it can go into supermarkets but

00:51:09.600 then we're seeing these long lines that

00:51:11.360 food kitchens and other things I'm

00:51:13.180 reading this morning you know India's

00:51:15.200 starving yeah why are we throwing out

00:51:18.020 food what can be done to stop that

00:51:20.220 well my guess is that all of these are

00:51:22.680 temporary things so so temporarily you

00:51:25.360 could easily see somebody say ah if I

00:51:27.860 had two weeks I could solve this but my

00:51:30.160 milk will be bad in one week so so I

00:51:33.580 think if you you know check back in a

00:51:35.640 year a lot of that stuff would be worked

00:51:38.200 out they'd have new systems and just

00:51:40.360 just like you said I think it's only a

00:51:42.040 timing thing I think that just takes a

00:51:44.080 little while to work things out but I

00:51:47.940 think we'll get there so all right

00:51:49.600 thanks for the question thank you

00:51:50.980 let's do one more because it's Easter

00:51:57.280 Sunday can't think of a better reason

00:51:59.560 all right

00:52:01.000 I'm going to pick this one because of

00:52:07.800 your title based and running toward

00:52:09.760 what hello based do you have a question

00:52:13.540 our technology is not going to add you

00:52:16.140 it looks like all right so based will

00:52:19.040 not be with us let's try Blake

00:52:23.380 Blake do you have a question for me

00:52:29.000 morning yes I can yes so thinking about

00:52:34.800 simulation theory and all this

00:52:36.780 persuasion it's it's all like you know

00:52:40.320 once you grasp it and wrap your head

00:52:41.920 around it how do you make more

00:52:43.280 practical applications of it for

00:52:45.420 instance in stressful situations where

00:52:48.160 you need to be calm and think about how

00:52:50.700 to be more persuasive like if you're in a

00:52:53.220 court on the stand or you're in a

00:52:54.900 business negotiation or something like

00:52:56.660 that good question and I did something

00:52:59.680 like this with a relaxation kind of

00:53:02.120 exercise but there's there's more of an

00:53:04.480 everyday part of this I find myself on a

00:53:09.140 regular basis saying all right what if

00:53:11.420 my reality is not the you know the

00:53:14.020 classic one where I'm a real person

00:53:15.840 who's born and live and die and stuff

00:53:17.660 but rather what if I'm a character in a

00:53:19.720 video game and this video game is

00:53:22.580 designed for me to solve certain

00:53:24.980 obstacles to get to the next level and I

00:53:28.500 say to myself does it seem like I keep

00:53:31.360 running into the same problem

00:53:32.760 everywhere and it feels like that's

00:53:35.040 what defines the level you're on have

00:53:37.100 you had this experience where there'll

00:53:38.900 be you know other people have all

00:53:41.180 kinds of different problems in

00:53:42.480 different realms but you for some

00:53:44.760 reason keep having the same flavor of

00:53:47.940 the same problem in different clothes

00:53:50.020 one time after another and you say to

00:53:52.580 yourself and you say to yourself is

00:53:54.320 this my was this my challenge for this

00:53:56.600 level like I guess this problem just

00:53:59.080 keeps coming up and up and every I

00:54:00.880 could go to another state move to

00:54:03.060 another house change jobs and I would

00:54:05.260 still have this problem because it

00:54:07.140 would follow me like so sometimes it's

00:54:10.220 fun to think of yourself in a video

00:54:12.820 game so instead of saying oh why why am I

00:54:16.560 plagued by this problem nobody has this

00:54:18.660 problem but me why does it keep

00:54:20.120 following me instead of saying that say

00:54:22.260 oh I get it now that's that's my

00:54:25.180 objective for the level I can't go up a

00:54:27.180 level until I solve this so then it

00:54:29.480 makes it sort of fun you say all right

00:54:31.520 instead of this big annoying thing that

00:54:33.920 I'm a victim of what do I do about

00:54:36.680 this you know how can I get past this

00:54:39.400 how do I get to the next level so I'm

00:54:41.780 not sure that any of this is real but

00:54:43.080 it's fun to think of it the other thing

00:54:44.540 is that when you take yourself out of

00:54:46.640 your and if you're let's say a human

00:54:51.240 frame and you just suddenly look down on

00:54:54.900 yourself like you're a video game it can

00:54:57.300 take you out of your stress because you

00:54:59.880 can actually just imagine all right

00:55:01.300 imagine that I'm the game creator now

00:55:04.160 and I'm just looking down on the game

00:55:05.900 and I'm looking at my characters what are

00:55:08.040 the odds that those characters are going

00:55:09.700 to be you know let's say dead in a week

00:55:11.780 not very high right but if you are the

00:55:15.080 character and you're looking at this you

00:55:17.080 know one percent chance of getting the

00:55:18.660 coronavirus or something you're pretty

00:55:20.100 worried but then you take yourself up to

00:55:22.560 the game player level and you go one

00:55:24.460 percent chance I'm not going to worry

00:55:26.040 about that let's go to the next level

00:55:28.040 so so it does help sometimes to just

00:55:30.700 imagine you're a different person in a

00:55:32.800 different context and then you can

00:55:34.700 imagine that the same situation starts

00:55:36.820 looking differently because you have a

00:55:38.880 different point of view it's just a

00:55:40.060 little trick I use to take me out of my

00:55:43.100 preferred frame so my preferred frame is I

00:55:47.060 am me I'm in this real world I have

00:55:50.080 these problems and that can really weigh

00:55:52.680 on you so even though the problems

00:55:54.780 don't necessarily change you can think

00:55:56.620 about them differently by taking

00:55:58.480 yourself up to you know game creator

00:56:00.460 level and looking down and saying

00:56:01.820 that doesn't look like one that's going

00:56:04.080 to stop him for more than a few days

00:56:05.740 you solve that problem a hundred times

00:56:07.460 yeah he's not very happy but I give him

00:56:10.100 48 hours he'll have that he'll have that

00:56:11.940 over with and then it just lets you see

00:56:14.360 it more objectively anyway that's the best

00:56:15.920 I got for you hope that helped when

00:56:18.960 you're yeah good yeah when but when

00:56:21.300 you're so you give us all the tips and

00:56:23.120 we read the books and stuff but when

00:56:24.580 you're actually in the situation you're

00:56:26.140 like well do I use this technique or do

00:56:27.640 I use this technique how like how do you

00:56:30.280 frame yourself when you're in the moment

00:56:33.560 or about to go into it like I get the

00:56:35.600 relaxation thing you just said about

00:56:37.240 taking yourself out of that space and

00:56:39.160 being above it but when you're actually

00:56:40.780 in it when the questions are flying at

00:56:43.300 you or you know yeah so it doesn't work

00:56:46.480 I don't find that this works when

00:56:48.660 there are other people in the room so

00:56:50.720 if there are other people in the room

00:56:51.720 you're pretty much you know tied to

00:56:54.040 interacting with them you can't just

00:56:55.560 disappear into your head so I'm talking

00:56:57.260 about in your quiet times you know

00:56:58.980 you're you're drifting off to sleep

00:57:02.000 you're sitting at your desk by yourself

00:57:04.080 so it's more of a private process there

00:57:07.340 there's nothing you can do if other

00:57:08.700 people are around if other people

00:57:10.400 around you you will be drawn into

00:57:12.100 their their world so just save your

00:57:14.480 other thinking for when you're alone

00:57:15.900 would be my advice all right that's

00:57:19.840 the best I can do I don't think that

00:57:21.020 helped too much but thank you so much

00:57:22.460 for the question Blake thank you all

00:57:25.540 right I think I can add to here and

00:57:29.360 tomorrow and this coming week we're

00:57:34.680 gonna have a lot of news it's gonna get

00:57:37.040 really newsy there are some things

00:57:40.580 coming in the coming weeks that I know

00:57:43.800 about that you don't at least one of

00:57:47.560 those things is really really good meaning

00:57:51.420 that if you're wondering you know are we

00:57:54.140 going to be having this problem forever

00:57:55.880 the answer is no and I can't tell you what

00:58:01.780 I know that you don't know but let me

00:58:04.740 tell you that when you're looking at the

00:58:06.860 toolbox of tools for for dealing with

00:58:10.620 this coronavirus situation there's a new

00:58:13.520 tool that's better than the other tools

00:58:16.720 and you don't know about it yet because

00:58:18.940 it needs a little development we're

00:58:20.280 talking only about a few weeks maybe

00:58:23.240 three or four weeks you're gonna see

00:58:25.220 something that you will say to yourself

00:58:27.460 well if we had that before we'd be in a

00:58:31.540 lot better shape now so and that's just

00:58:34.760 one of the things I know about so I'm

00:58:36.840 talking about something with the

00:58:38.120 coronavirus there's there's good news

00:58:40.440 probably yeah nothing's a hundred percent

00:58:43.920 but there are things I know about that

00:58:46.080 you don't yet know about that would

00:58:48.040 suggest there's a new tool coming that's

00:58:50.500 better than all the other tools and we

00:58:52.760 might only be three weeks away so my

00:58:56.500 prediction is that if you're worried

00:58:59.140 we'll be locked down forever through the

00:59:01.560 summer or something like that very small

00:59:04.700 chance very small chance that we will be

00:59:08.200 locked down all summer might we be locked

00:59:11.080 down until let's say June 1st pretty good

00:59:14.140 chance pretty good chance I think you

00:59:17.320 know I think maybe some stuff will open

00:59:19.480 May 1st but I maybe not much I think May

00:59:23.380 May 50th is gonna be the first time that

00:59:26.520 anybody gets serious about opening stuff

00:59:28.580 up just a guess and I think June 1st if

00:59:32.560 you had to bet on it would be when more

00:59:35.180 things will open up than before June 1st

00:59:37.600 so if I had to bet on it it's gonna be

00:59:40.220 June 1st and part of this is dependent

00:59:42.780 upon these new tools that are on the way

00:59:45.000 one that I know about others that also

00:59:48.140 look promising but they're not really

00:59:49.780 gonna be online until around June 1st

00:59:52.020 that's when we can get serious so as

00:59:55.780 somebody says am I bluffing no I'm not

00:59:57.780 bluffing I could be wrong meaning that

01:00:01.160 maybe my optimism will be misplaced but I

01:00:05.040 know the tool works and it's just a

01:00:07.800 question of ramping it up so basically we

01:00:10.940 don't have to wonder if it works that

01:00:12.460 part's answered it's a manufacturing

01:00:15.140 production distribution question which I

01:00:18.240 think so he says June 1st is too long

01:00:22.420 well maybe here's here's what I think

01:00:27.000 I've been thinking about my neighborhood

01:00:29.560 you know I've got this app called the

01:00:31.140 neighborhood so if I send that a message

01:00:33.580 it's it's sort of geo fenced to only go

01:00:36.940 to the people in my zone that live there

01:00:39.620 or at least people who signed up to live

01:00:43.120 there and I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna

01:00:47.340 make sure nobody starves in my

01:00:49.620 neighborhood I'll probably said that I

01:00:52.620 was gonna send that an email or

01:00:54.060 something or a message on the next door

01:00:56.680 app just to tell people in my

01:00:58.660 neighborhood that there isn't any chance

01:01:01.320 that they're gonna starve unless unless

01:01:03.080 we all starve so if somebody needs a

01:01:05.420 sandwich in my neighborhood I'll buy them

01:01:07.280 a sandwich so you know it's a pretty

01:01:09.400 upscale neighborhood so people aren't

01:01:10.840 going to be too much starving here but

01:01:12.840 the point is I can personally make sure

01:01:15.820 as long as the supermarkets still have

01:01:18.900 food and I had still have money I can

01:01:22.640 make sure that nobody starves in my

01:01:23.960 neighborhood like I can guarantee it

01:01:26.900 I'll just put out a message to say hey

01:01:28.560 if if you have some reason you can't

01:01:30.740 give food email me I'll take care of it

01:01:33.460 right away so nobody in my neighborhood is

01:01:36.720 going to starve likewise nobody's going to

01:01:39.220 be kicked out of their homes because

01:01:41.760 nobody's going to get evicted in this

01:01:43.420 environment so if you don't get kicked

01:01:46.040 out of your home and they're not going

01:01:47.380 to turn off the power they probably

01:01:49.520 won't even turn off your cable because

01:01:51.900 everybody knows people are having

01:01:53.820 trouble paying bills so at least for the

01:01:56.800 next few months I think everybody can

01:01:58.760 stay where they are I mean they have the

01:02:00.780 option it won't be fun but you can stay

01:02:03.120 where you are and I don't think there's

01:02:05.280 any chance that people won't be willing

01:02:08.400 to help feed you should you need it and I

01:02:11.780 know that you know part of the problem is

01:02:14.920 that there are people who just had normal

01:02:17.280 good jobs and lives who suddenly literally

01:02:20.320 can't buy food and I think that for many

01:02:23.440 of them just asking for help is going to

01:02:26.120 be the hard part asking for help is going

01:02:29.560 to be the hard part right which is why in

01:02:32.580 my neighborhood I'll probably just send

01:02:33.940 out an email so people contact me

01:02:36.620 personally because nobody wants to admit

01:02:39.060 they need help so you say June 1st is too

01:02:44.460 long but let me suggest this zero people

01:02:48.400 will starve to death in the United States

01:02:50.960 so I'm predicting that zero people will

01:02:55.000 starve to death because of the

01:02:56.420 coronavirus I don't know if there's

01:02:57.740 anybody starving for other reasons but

01:02:59.440 not because of the coronavirus we're not

01:03:03.000 going to run out of food and we're not

01:03:04.320 going to run out of generosity got plenty

01:03:06.660 of that all right I'm seeing in the

01:03:12.900 comments that Mark Cuban would crush

01:03:15.160 Biden I think you're right all right

01:03:18.900 that's enough for now I will see you

01:03:21.420 tonight you know when see you then
