00:00:00.000 Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum
00:00:02.000 Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum
00:00:06.640 Bum-bum-bum
00:00:08.340 And as the curtain falls on another wonderful day,
00:00:15.740 here in the simulation,
00:00:18.260 we gather together to consider all the funny
00:00:22.240 and entertaining things that have happened
00:00:23.880 since last we spoke.
00:00:26.020 Alexa, turn on studio
00:00:30.880 Hey, hey everybody
00:00:37.940 it's good to see you
00:00:39.740 I just got a fresh tweet from
00:00:43.080 Connor Friedersdorf
00:00:45.280 from Connor Friedersdorf
00:00:47.980 who is a staff writer at The Atlantic
00:00:51.760 and the founding editor
00:00:53.840 of the best of journalism
00:00:56.700 so The Atlantic, as you know
00:00:59.660 is a Trump derangement syndrome publication
00:01:04.520 and so he was responding to my tweet
00:01:11.920 so here's my tweet
00:01:13.080 and then I'm going to read you his tweet
00:01:15.100 and I want you to see
00:01:17.020 if it makes any sense to you
00:01:20.260 because I've taught you to find cognitive
00:01:23.620 dissonance, right
00:01:24.520 and the tell for cognitive dissonance
00:01:29.820 at least the verbal tell
00:01:31.180 is that the person babbles nonsense
00:01:33.940 so if you see somebody
00:01:36.200 who should be able to put
00:01:37.440 a coherent sentence together
00:01:39.740 and just can't
00:01:41.480 the words come out
00:01:43.060 but it's just nonsense
00:01:44.080 that's cognitive dissonance
00:01:46.060 so I'm going to read this to you
00:01:47.040 and you decide
00:01:47.880 what this says
00:01:50.240 alright so first
00:01:51.000 my tweet
00:01:52.040 that he responded to
00:01:53.160 I said pro tip
00:01:53.980 if you find yourself bleeding
00:01:56.020 bleating
00:01:57.320 like a sheep
00:01:58.180 quote
00:01:58.960 but he literally said that
00:02:00.880 then you are demonstrating
00:02:02.700 that you don't understand
00:02:03.980 how words work
00:02:05.180 meaning requires context
00:02:07.500 it never matters
00:02:08.600 what someone literally says
00:02:10.820 it only matters
00:02:12.500 what they meant
00:02:13.120 which context
00:02:14.640 can help you discern
00:02:15.800 alright so my tweet says
00:02:17.640 all the people who are saying
00:02:19.240 but he literally said that
00:02:20.840 are just demonstrating
00:02:22.460 that they've never lived
00:02:23.680 in this world
00:02:24.440 because what somebody
00:02:26.240 literally says
00:02:27.200 never means anything
00:02:28.120 if I say
00:02:29.720 I think I want to kill
00:02:32.040 that newspaper delivery boy
00:02:34.160 which is probably
00:02:36.000 not a thing anymore
00:02:37.180 and never will be
00:02:37.980 but
00:02:38.800 but it doesn't mean
00:02:40.140 I want to kill him
00:02:40.820 right
00:02:41.040 because I don't
00:02:42.380 I don't say what
00:02:43.140 I literally mean
00:02:44.160 you have to look at
00:02:45.020 the whole context
00:02:45.780 so Conor Friedersdorf
00:02:49.080 looks at my
00:02:49.760 perfectly reasonable statement
00:02:51.900 that context
00:02:53.480 must be included
00:02:54.400 and you cannot just look
00:02:56.100 at the literal words
00:02:57.700 and here's what he says
00:02:59.400 see if this makes
00:03:00.540 any sense to you
00:03:01.380 what Trump meant was
00:03:03.840 I'm so smart
00:03:05.080 that any COVID treatment
00:03:06.240 that pops into my head
00:03:08.120 based on whatever
00:03:09.280 I just heard
00:03:10.160 is worth erring
00:03:11.220 to the nation
00:03:11.820 it rises to the level
00:03:13.500 of the tiny subset
00:03:14.560 of things
00:03:15.140 that we should
00:03:15.960 communicate from
00:03:16.840 the White House
00:03:17.500 and then he says
00:03:18.800 the context
00:03:19.920 is hugely damning
00:03:21.220 what?
00:03:24.800 I don't even know
00:03:25.740 what it is
00:03:26.180 what?
00:03:27.960 what does this mean?
00:03:29.600 it rises to the level
00:03:30.780 of the tiny subset
00:03:31.760 of things
00:03:32.200 that we should
00:03:32.600 communicate from
00:03:33.380 the
00:03:33.560 oh
00:03:34.300 so he's saying
00:03:34.960 that
00:03:35.300 it's important
00:03:37.620 okay
00:03:38.560 so I see his point
00:03:39.720 that the president
00:03:41.160 shouldn't have maybe
00:03:42.040 been in this topic
00:03:43.720 but does that have
00:03:45.380 anything to do
00:03:46.180 with my tweet?
00:03:47.240 they're completely
00:03:48.100 unrelated
00:03:48.680 it's just like babble
00:03:49.920 on some other topic
00:03:51.860 anyway
00:03:52.120 so all day long
00:03:53.580 I've been seeing
00:03:54.580 people triggered
00:03:55.460 into cognitive dissonance
00:03:57.100 and just going
00:03:58.120 into babble mode
00:03:59.380 or full insult mode
00:04:00.760 and I feel like
00:04:04.700 on some level
00:04:05.580 this is just a replay
00:04:08.200 of the fine people
00:04:09.700 hoax situation
00:04:10.880 in which there's
00:04:12.220 you just have to
00:04:13.360 look at the transcript
00:04:14.220 you just have to
00:04:15.040 look at the context
00:04:15.920 it's obvious
00:04:16.820 but
00:04:18.040 we will never
00:04:19.400 be able to agree
00:04:20.300 Rob O'Neill
00:04:24.180 you probably know him
00:04:25.160 as the guy
00:04:25.940 who killed
00:04:26.700 Osama bin Laden
00:04:28.660 he
00:04:29.900 he's fun to follow
00:04:31.660 on Twitter
00:04:32.420 and he tweeted
00:04:33.220 today that
00:04:34.000 Kim Jong-un
00:04:35.040 is dead
00:04:35.560 now
00:04:37.500 I don't know
00:04:38.100 maybe he has
00:04:38.520 better sources
00:04:39.160 than I do
00:04:39.840 he did
00:04:40.300 after all
00:04:40.900 kill bin Laden
00:04:42.520 but when he tweeted
00:04:43.360 that Kim Jong-un
00:04:44.100 is dead
00:04:44.460 I tweeted back
00:04:45.220 to him
00:04:45.560 and I said
00:04:46.160 did you do it
00:04:47.920 because
00:04:49.500 if you did
00:04:50.200 that's just
00:04:50.580 showing off
00:04:51.280 I mean
00:04:51.780 save some
00:04:53.380 dictators
00:04:53.800 for
00:04:54.280 for the other
00:04:55.540 guys
00:04:55.920 I mean
00:04:56.340 really
00:04:56.920 Rob
00:04:57.940 let somebody
00:04:59.180 else have one
00:04:59.820 here's one
00:05:02.280 of the funniest
00:05:02.860 stories
00:05:03.560 you know
00:05:05.520 how
00:05:05.780 every time
00:05:06.580 Trump
00:05:08.440 hires somebody
00:05:09.340 new
00:05:09.740 or
00:05:10.180 or even
00:05:11.580 if he doesn't
00:05:12.240 even if there's
00:05:12.980 just somebody
00:05:13.340 who's been
00:05:13.660 working for him
00:05:14.580 for a while
00:05:15.040 that the game
00:05:16.440 is to
00:05:16.920 to identify
00:05:17.740 people on
00:05:19.580 the other team
00:05:20.360 and just
00:05:20.860 you know
00:05:21.240 target them
00:05:21.960 for destruction
00:05:22.720 so it seems
00:05:25.200 that they've
00:05:25.780 targeted
00:05:26.320 Michael Caputo
00:05:27.940 who
00:05:29.020 you know
00:05:29.620 was targeted
00:05:30.220 before
00:05:30.800 and that whole
00:05:31.540 Russia collusion
00:05:32.440 stuff
00:05:32.820 and they
00:05:33.160 basically
00:05:33.880 you know
00:05:34.540 made him
00:05:35.480 spend all
00:05:35.960 his money
00:05:36.480 defending himself
00:05:38.040 against nothing
00:05:38.680 because he was
00:05:39.160 never accused
00:05:39.760 of anything
00:05:40.140 but he still
00:05:41.060 had to hire
00:05:41.460 lawyers
00:05:41.860 and stuff
00:05:42.260 so he's
00:05:43.200 been probably
00:05:43.800 the most
00:05:44.380 one of the
00:05:46.040 most victimized
00:05:47.020 people in
00:05:47.660 politics
00:05:48.220 but
00:05:49.080 so he gets
00:05:50.520 he gets
00:05:51.040 this great
00:05:52.020 new job
00:05:52.660 just recently
00:05:53.540 as the new
00:05:54.080 spokesman
00:05:55.260 of the
00:05:55.700 Department
00:05:56.600 of Health
00:05:57.220 and Human
00:05:57.540 Services
00:05:57.980 and of course
00:05:58.780 you know
00:05:59.660 that's
00:06:00.020 a pretty
00:06:00.460 important job
00:06:01.100 especially now
00:06:01.920 during the
00:06:02.660 coronavirus stuff
00:06:03.820 and so
00:06:05.860 the K-Files
00:06:07.780 I guess
00:06:08.140 that's a CNN
00:06:08.900 investigative group
00:06:11.480 or something
00:06:11.880 so they look
00:06:13.580 to find all
00:06:14.200 the bad
00:06:14.580 things he's
00:06:15.100 ever said
00:06:15.680 all the
00:06:16.780 very bad
00:06:17.660 things
00:06:18.180 and man
00:06:19.260 did they
00:06:19.560 come up
00:06:19.920 with some
00:06:20.280 doozies
00:06:20.740 well I don't
00:06:21.880 know if they
00:06:22.220 came up
00:06:22.580 with some
00:06:22.860 doozies
00:06:23.240 because they
00:06:23.660 only gave
00:06:24.000 one real
00:06:25.420 good example
00:06:26.060 so this
00:06:28.620 is the
00:06:28.880 guy
00:06:29.040 they've
00:06:29.320 targeted
00:06:29.640 for
00:06:29.900 destruction
00:06:30.420 for what
00:06:31.700 they say
00:06:32.140 are his
00:06:32.480 racist
00:06:32.860 tweets
00:06:33.380 and I'm
00:06:34.640 going to
00:06:34.820 read you
00:06:35.140 his tweet
00:06:35.720 and then I'm
00:06:37.780 going to
00:06:37.900 read you
00:06:38.180 his response
00:06:39.060 when they
00:06:39.840 asked him
00:06:40.260 about it
00:06:40.640 it's like
00:06:40.980 one of the
00:06:41.300 best responses
00:06:42.020 ever
00:06:42.320 so
00:06:43.360 so he
00:06:44.700 had tweeted
00:06:45.120 I guess
00:06:45.560 back in
00:06:45.940 March 12th
00:06:47.160 in response
00:06:48.380 to the
00:06:48.780 rumor that
00:06:49.300 the United
00:06:49.760 States
00:06:50.220 was the
00:06:50.820 one who
00:06:51.220 started
00:06:51.600 the coronavirus
00:06:52.300 and took
00:06:52.980 it to
00:06:53.260 China
00:06:53.520 so he
00:06:54.620 was responding
00:06:55.240 to that
00:06:55.760 that crazy
00:06:56.580 rumor
00:06:56.920 and he
00:06:58.360 retorted in
00:06:59.080 his tweet
00:06:59.500 that quote
00:07:00.100 millions of
00:07:00.760 Chinese suck
00:07:01.360 the blood
00:07:01.780 out of
00:07:02.100 rabbit bats
00:07:02.840 as an
00:07:03.260 appetizer
00:07:04.100 and eat
00:07:05.100 the ass
00:07:05.540 out of
00:07:05.820 anteaters
00:07:06.320 now I'm
00:07:07.960 only reading
00:07:08.360 this because
00:07:08.840 it was on
00:07:09.300 CNN's
00:07:09.780 website
00:07:10.120 right so
00:07:10.600 it's news
00:07:11.060 now
00:07:12.160 I feel
00:07:14.520 as though
00:07:15.040 this would
00:07:16.160 be more
00:07:16.660 of a humorous
00:07:17.700 exaggeration
00:07:18.800 than racist
00:07:21.180 because it's
00:07:22.400 not like he
00:07:22.840 made up
00:07:23.360 the wet
00:07:25.200 markets
00:07:25.720 Michael
00:07:27.100 Caputo
00:07:27.540 did not
00:07:28.000 invent
00:07:28.520 wet markets
00:07:29.360 he simply
00:07:30.480 humorously
00:07:31.120 described them
00:07:31.980 exactly as
00:07:33.300 they exist
00:07:33.860 now is
00:07:35.660 it offensive
00:07:36.180 sure
00:07:37.820 sure
00:07:39.380 yeah it's
00:07:39.940 offensive
00:07:40.400 was it
00:07:41.120 meant to
00:07:41.420 be offensive
00:07:41.940 to China
00:07:43.280 the country
00:07:43.960 maybe
00:07:45.760 who knows
00:07:46.360 who cares
00:07:47.560 I offend
00:07:48.900 China five
00:07:49.520 times a day
00:07:50.140 I plan to
00:07:51.340 offend China
00:07:52.020 many more
00:07:52.720 times
00:07:53.140 is there
00:07:53.980 a law
00:07:54.300 against
00:07:54.600 offending
00:07:55.140 China
00:07:55.600 I mean
00:07:56.400 they did
00:07:57.360 kill my
00:07:57.860 stepson
00:07:58.320 with fentanyl
00:07:59.000 I think
00:07:59.940 I've got a
00:08:00.360 right to
00:08:00.780 offend them
00:08:01.640 so one of
00:08:03.400 the tricks
00:08:03.740 that CNN
00:08:04.460 does and
00:08:05.160 the left
00:08:05.500 does is
00:08:06.580 they conflate
00:08:07.420 offensive
00:08:08.060 with racist
00:08:09.800 and they're
00:08:12.240 they're not
00:08:12.480 they're not
00:08:12.500 they're not
00:08:13.100 even close
00:08:13.560 to being
00:08:13.840 the same
00:08:14.320 offensive
00:08:15.860 is what
00:08:17.540 people are
00:08:18.460 all the time
00:08:19.080 to each
00:08:19.480 other
00:08:19.780 it's called
00:08:20.340 Twitter
00:08:20.660 I mean
00:08:22.120 if you took
00:08:22.840 away being
00:08:23.320 offensive
00:08:23.780 there would
00:08:24.200 be no
00:08:24.580 social media
00:08:25.340 I mean
00:08:25.900 wouldn't be
00:08:26.360 enough left
00:08:26.840 to be
00:08:28.180 entertaining
00:08:28.680 and
00:08:29.740 so yeah
00:08:32.060 of course
00:08:32.660 it was
00:08:33.040 offensive
00:08:33.600 he wrote
00:08:34.680 it that way
00:08:35.240 that's why
00:08:35.860 it's funny
00:08:36.340 it's funny
00:08:37.620 because it's
00:08:38.180 offensive
00:08:38.540 that's how
00:08:39.760 humor works
00:08:40.440 it's how
00:08:40.740 social media
00:08:41.280 works
00:08:41.560 the other
00:08:42.360 the other
00:08:42.800 trick that
00:08:43.460 CNN does
00:08:44.480 is they'll
00:08:45.480 take something
00:08:46.040 that's very
00:08:46.620 provocative
00:08:47.240 on Twitter
00:08:49.240 but because
00:08:50.780 it's Twitter
00:08:51.400 everybody sort
00:08:52.220 of understands
00:08:52.940 what the
00:08:53.420 what the
00:08:53.960 game is
00:08:54.580 yeah of course
00:08:55.680 you say stuff
00:08:56.300 like that on
00:08:56.860 Twitter
00:08:57.120 but as soon
00:08:58.100 as CNN
00:08:58.700 takes that
00:08:59.280 thing that
00:08:59.640 was on
00:09:00.040 Twitter
00:09:00.380 where it
00:09:01.440 was just
00:09:01.800 like every
00:09:02.300 other thing
00:09:02.880 right
00:09:03.400 every other
00:09:03.920 offensive thing
00:09:04.580 on Twitter
00:09:05.020 humorously
00:09:06.220 offensive
00:09:06.580 that's
00:09:07.760 partly
00:09:08.200 why we
00:09:08.620 go to
00:09:08.880 Twitter
00:09:09.200 the humorously
00:09:10.860 offensive
00:09:11.280 stuff is
00:09:12.060 if I had
00:09:13.060 to admit
00:09:13.460 it
00:09:13.680 sort of
00:09:14.260 the main
00:09:14.800 attraction
00:09:15.480 at least
00:09:17.340 for me
00:09:17.780 speaking for
00:09:18.400 myself
00:09:18.860 so anyway
00:09:21.680 he's
00:09:22.060 he was
00:09:23.340 offensive
00:09:23.740 but
00:09:24.300 you'd have
00:09:25.400 to really
00:09:25.860 stretch
00:09:26.460 to say
00:09:27.000 it was
00:09:27.260 more than
00:09:27.660 that
00:09:27.940 but anyway
00:09:28.640 so he
00:09:28.980 makes
00:09:29.220 so this
00:09:29.960 is the
00:09:30.260 worst
00:09:30.520 they could
00:09:30.860 find
00:09:31.300 is something
00:09:32.340 about eating
00:09:32.860 the ass
00:09:33.320 out of an
00:09:33.660 anteater
00:09:34.080 and
00:09:35.320 which to
00:09:36.140 me is
00:09:36.380 just funny
00:09:36.900 and of
00:09:37.760 course it
00:09:38.080 made me
00:09:38.400 curious
00:09:38.920 aren't you
00:09:40.540 a little
00:09:41.020 bit curious
00:09:41.660 now
00:09:42.120 if the
00:09:43.780 posterior
00:09:44.500 part of
00:09:45.180 anteaters
00:09:45.720 are actually
00:09:46.460 in the
00:09:46.780 wet markets
00:09:47.360 as a
00:09:47.740 delicacy
00:09:48.280 because
00:09:49.480 I'm kind
00:09:50.660 of curious
00:09:51.100 now
00:09:51.620 aren't you
00:09:52.320 because it
00:09:54.000 doesn't
00:09:54.260 necessarily
00:09:54.760 have to be
00:09:55.220 true
00:09:55.420 it's just
00:09:55.780 sort of a
00:09:56.300 random
00:09:56.820 animal
00:09:57.580 body part
00:09:59.680 you know
00:10:00.380 it's a
00:10:00.700 funny
00:10:00.940 animal
00:10:01.340 an
00:10:01.520 anteater
00:10:01.940 and the
00:10:02.880 anteater's
00:10:03.460 ass
00:10:03.720 is even
00:10:04.120 funnier
00:10:04.440 than the
00:10:04.760 anteater
00:10:05.180 sort of
00:10:05.960 double
00:10:06.200 funny
00:10:06.560 so
00:10:07.560 maybe
00:10:09.000 I mean
00:10:10.300 is it
00:10:11.580 is that
00:10:12.860 a thing
00:10:13.300 people are
00:10:15.700 saying no
00:10:16.220 they don't
00:10:16.620 think it's
00:10:17.000 a thing
00:10:17.300 but what's
00:10:18.300 funny is
00:10:18.760 that you
00:10:19.040 you pause
00:10:20.000 and you
00:10:20.260 say
00:10:20.480 well
00:10:21.420 it's
00:10:22.140 probably
00:10:22.600 not a
00:10:23.200 thing
00:10:23.580 but on
00:10:24.700 the other
00:10:24.980 hand
00:10:25.300 the things
00:10:26.660 that are
00:10:26.980 things
00:10:27.360 you wouldn't
00:10:27.980 have thought
00:10:28.280 of those
00:10:28.600 being things
00:10:29.200 either
00:10:29.500 so it's
00:10:30.720 kind of
00:10:31.000 funny
00:10:31.180 that way
00:10:31.560 all right
00:10:32.200 so here's
00:10:32.640 his response
00:10:33.320 so he gets
00:10:34.600 busted
00:10:35.300 he's busted
00:10:36.160 for this
00:10:37.220 highly horrible
00:10:38.200 tweet
00:10:38.660 which has
00:10:39.400 since been
00:10:39.980 deleted
00:10:40.380 I think
00:10:42.820 he just
00:10:43.140 did the
00:10:43.420 wise thing
00:10:43.860 which is
00:10:44.220 he cleaned
00:10:45.240 up his
00:10:45.660 Twitter
00:10:46.120 before he
00:10:46.700 took the
00:10:47.020 job
00:10:47.280 and he
00:10:48.500 responded
00:10:48.920 to CNN's
00:10:49.620 request for
00:10:50.280 comment by
00:10:50.860 saying
00:10:51.180 quote
00:10:51.600 fair game
00:10:52.740 dude
00:10:53.060 I don't
00:10:53.780 care
00:10:54.040 doesn't
00:10:54.760 matter to
00:10:55.100 me at
00:10:55.340 all
00:10:55.840 Caputo
00:10:57.320 went on
00:10:57.740 to say
00:10:58.020 that
00:10:58.320 he regularly
00:10:59.880 deletes
00:11:00.400 his tweets
00:11:00.880 because it
00:11:02.100 drives people
00:11:02.660 mad
00:11:03.080 and defended
00:11:04.440 his past
00:11:04.940 Twitter behavior
00:11:05.520 by saying
00:11:05.960 he was a
00:11:06.280 defender of
00:11:06.700 the present
00:11:07.060 of course
00:11:08.280 is that
00:11:08.920 the best
00:11:09.780 comment he could
00:11:12.280 have possibly
00:11:12.780 said is
00:11:13.360 fair game
00:11:14.480 I don't
00:11:14.960 care
00:11:15.200 doesn't
00:11:15.900 matter at
00:11:16.240 all
00:11:16.660 because you
00:11:17.900 know what
00:11:18.260 doesn't matter
00:11:19.900 at all
00:11:20.300 doesn't matter
00:11:21.740 not at all
00:11:23.020 you know
00:11:24.080 and here's
00:11:24.540 the thing
00:11:24.920 they're
00:11:25.320 obviously
00:11:25.880 the game
00:11:26.460 here
00:11:26.780 nobody
00:11:27.600 cares
00:11:28.340 there's
00:11:29.180 nobody
00:11:29.420 at CNN
00:11:29.860 who cares
00:11:31.180 about this
00:11:31.900 do you
00:11:32.740 think there's
00:11:33.120 somebody
00:11:33.400 at CNN
00:11:33.940 who's like
00:11:34.420 you know
00:11:34.780 I made
00:11:36.060 a list
00:11:36.400 of all
00:11:36.720 the important
00:11:37.200 stories
00:11:37.740 and you
00:11:38.760 know
00:11:38.960 Michael
00:11:39.320 Caputo's
00:11:40.040 that one
00:11:40.560 tweet
00:11:41.080 it was
00:11:41.920 like a
00:11:42.420 little bit
00:11:42.720 exaggerated
00:11:43.320 in a way
00:11:43.920 that you
00:11:44.260 could take
00:11:44.740 as being
00:11:45.080 offensive
00:11:45.640 yeah
00:11:46.480 that's what
00:11:46.900 I care
00:11:47.280 about
00:11:47.560 nobody
00:11:48.160 at CNN
00:11:48.580 cares
00:11:49.220 it's the
00:11:50.440 least
00:11:50.800 important
00:11:51.200 thing
00:11:51.560 of the
00:11:51.940 least
00:11:52.160 important
00:11:52.520 thing
00:11:52.920 so just
00:11:55.720 blowing it
00:11:56.200 off like
00:11:56.600 that
00:11:57.040 saying
00:11:57.580 I don't
00:11:57.980 care
00:11:58.420 was sort
00:11:59.900 of perfect
00:12:00.400 and of course
00:12:02.180 you know
00:12:02.480 the game
00:12:02.820 is to get
00:12:03.320 the Trump
00:12:04.640 administration
00:12:05.260 riled up
00:12:05.920 and say
00:12:06.160 we're gonna
00:12:06.580 have to fire
00:12:07.040 this guy
00:12:07.500 because of
00:12:08.020 this
00:12:08.280 but if
00:12:09.280 you fire
00:12:09.680 people
00:12:10.080 for being
00:12:11.580 this
00:12:12.300 this level
00:12:13.760 of minor
00:12:14.840 humorously
00:12:15.520 offensive
00:12:15.920 if that's
00:12:17.280 what gets
00:12:17.640 you fired
00:12:18.140 you're gonna
00:12:19.160 have to
00:12:19.460 get rid
00:12:19.800 of you
00:12:20.060 know
00:12:20.260 Don
00:12:20.640 Jr
00:12:21.000 you know
00:12:22.540 you're gonna
00:12:23.180 have to
00:12:23.360 get rid
00:12:23.660 of you
00:12:24.300 know
00:12:24.420 everybody
00:12:24.820 on the
00:12:25.700 Fox
00:12:25.960 network
00:12:26.480 pretty much
00:12:28.620 pretty much
00:12:29.320 everybody
00:12:29.820 who's a
00:12:30.700 conservative
00:12:31.140 has to be
00:12:31.860 fired
00:12:32.180 if that's
00:12:33.240 fireable
00:12:33.660 all right
00:12:34.780 we got more
00:12:38.920 fun stuff
00:12:39.500 coming here
00:12:40.120 so Trump
00:12:43.320 didn't have
00:12:44.160 a press
00:12:45.080 conference
00:12:45.440 today
00:12:45.880 and I think
00:12:46.400 that was
00:12:46.780 the right
00:12:47.200 call
00:12:47.580 I think
00:12:48.820 I think
00:12:49.700 maybe
00:12:50.720 probably
00:12:52.400 he's getting
00:12:52.860 the feedback
00:12:53.580 that a little
00:12:54.980 bit less
00:12:55.460 of that
00:12:55.800 would be
00:12:56.200 more
00:12:56.580 so maybe
00:12:57.540 that'll be
00:12:57.960 a few
00:12:58.240 times a
00:12:58.660 week
00:12:58.820 we'll see
00:12:59.420 you know
00:12:59.920 it could be
00:13:00.380 exactly as
00:13:00.980 much
00:13:01.320 you know
00:13:02.440 he's
00:13:02.640 unpredictable
00:13:03.160 we'll see
00:13:03.740 but he
00:13:04.560 obviously
00:13:04.960 knows that
00:13:05.900 it's obvious
00:13:08.380 that the
00:13:08.940 entire event
00:13:09.940 is just to
00:13:10.840 trap him
00:13:11.360 into saying
00:13:11.880 something
00:13:12.300 that they
00:13:13.200 could take
00:13:13.620 out of
00:13:13.900 context
00:13:14.400 and if
00:13:15.500 that's
00:13:15.740 the only
00:13:16.080 reason
00:13:16.400 you're
00:13:16.620 doing
00:13:16.820 it
00:13:17.100 is to
00:13:18.360 bait him
00:13:18.900 into saying
00:13:19.440 something
00:13:19.820 that can be
00:13:20.280 taken out of
00:13:20.860 context
00:13:21.340 why do it
00:13:23.400 all right
00:13:24.480 so the
00:13:29.480 Bank of China
00:13:30.100 you remember that
00:13:30.700 story that said
00:13:31.360 the Bank of China
00:13:32.240 had loaned the
00:13:34.100 Trump organization
00:13:35.800 millions of dollars
00:13:37.140 and therefore
00:13:38.300 there was this
00:13:39.260 big scoop
00:13:39.960 in Politico
00:13:40.640 I think it
00:13:41.060 was
00:13:41.340 that
00:13:42.180 Trump was
00:13:45.140 beholden to
00:13:45.880 China
00:13:46.220 because his
00:13:47.240 loans were
00:13:47.720 going to
00:13:47.920 come due
00:13:48.400 and I
00:13:49.880 said
00:13:50.280 based on my
00:13:52.020 experience as
00:13:52.780 a banker
00:13:53.160 you know
00:13:54.320 I'm not even
00:13:55.180 sure there is
00:13:56.040 a loan
00:13:56.520 because even
00:13:57.780 if the Bank of
00:13:58.500 China made
00:13:59.140 the loan
00:13:59.620 it would be
00:14:00.840 typical to
00:14:01.520 package up
00:14:02.200 your loans
00:14:02.760 and you
00:14:03.600 sell them
00:14:04.100 so the
00:14:04.840 bank will
00:14:05.380 make the
00:14:05.860 loan
00:14:06.180 but then
00:14:07.300 they're not
00:14:07.680 the ones
00:14:08.100 who you
00:14:08.840 have to
00:14:09.140 pay back
00:14:09.660 because they
00:14:10.100 sell that
00:14:10.620 debt to
00:14:11.620 someone else
00:14:12.220 it's just
00:14:12.560 part of
00:14:12.840 their business
00:14:13.280 because they
00:14:14.000 would rather
00:14:14.400 make new
00:14:14.980 loans and
00:14:15.700 get the
00:14:16.080 processing
00:14:16.640 fees and
00:14:17.300 the upfront
00:14:17.680 stuff and
00:14:18.820 then sell
00:14:19.560 it off
00:14:20.040 so they have
00:14:21.140 enough backing
00:14:22.660 to make new
00:14:23.440 loans
00:14:23.780 so I had
00:14:25.680 speculated
00:14:26.240 that there was
00:14:26.980 actually probably
00:14:28.400 nothing that
00:14:29.640 the Trump
00:14:30.440 organization owed
00:14:31.540 to Bank of
00:14:32.260 China and
00:14:33.580 that was
00:14:33.960 confirmed today
00:14:34.800 so that
00:14:38.400 was confirmed
00:14:39.060 so it
00:14:40.120 turns out
00:14:40.540 that the
00:14:40.940 amount of
00:14:41.440 money that
00:14:41.820 the Trump
00:14:42.200 organization owes
00:14:43.340 to the Bank
00:14:43.880 of China
00:14:44.300 is zero
00:14:46.060 zero
00:14:47.600 this big
00:14:49.300 breaking story
00:14:50.260 big news
00:14:51.560 and you
00:14:53.440 know I've
00:14:53.660 told you
00:14:53.940 before that
00:14:54.600 having a
00:14:56.500 good talent
00:14:57.140 stack in
00:14:58.460 which you've
00:14:58.980 spent some
00:14:59.440 time in
00:14:59.840 different
00:15:00.140 domains
00:15:00.680 allows you
00:15:02.000 to see
00:15:02.380 around
00:15:02.660 corners
00:15:03.180 sometimes
00:15:03.900 and here's
00:15:05.000 a perfect
00:15:05.380 example
00:15:05.800 because I
00:15:06.480 was a
00:15:07.120 banker
00:15:07.440 I knew
00:15:08.460 enough about
00:15:09.160 banking
00:15:09.680 you know
00:15:10.440 I'm no
00:15:10.940 banking expert
00:15:11.820 but I knew
00:15:12.680 enough about
00:15:13.240 banking to
00:15:13.860 say you
00:15:14.240 know
00:15:14.560 I'm not so
00:15:17.160 sure he owes
00:15:17.920 them any
00:15:18.420 money
00:15:18.760 I'll look
00:15:19.280 into that
00:15:19.760 and so I
00:15:21.840 didn't know
00:15:22.140 for sure
00:15:22.560 but based on
00:15:24.060 my experience
00:15:24.680 it seemed
00:15:25.020 likely
00:15:25.360 and so that's
00:15:26.320 confirmed
00:15:26.740 that whole
00:15:28.080 story was
00:15:28.540 fake
00:15:28.840 Piers Morgan
00:15:32.920 what is
00:15:34.500 what is
00:15:35.180 wrong with
00:15:35.700 this guy
00:15:36.140 there's
00:15:37.640 something going
00:15:38.180 on that I
00:15:38.680 don't it's
00:15:39.240 like there's
00:15:39.580 more to the
00:15:40.040 story so
00:15:41.020 why is
00:15:41.480 Piers Morgan
00:15:42.700 he hates
00:15:44.400 the president
00:15:44.880 for some
00:15:45.320 reason lately
00:15:45.900 used to be
00:15:46.540 a supporter
00:15:47.040 but he
00:15:48.980 completely
00:15:49.520 believed
00:15:50.220 the story
00:15:51.100 that Trump
00:15:52.040 was asking
00:15:54.160 the doctors
00:15:54.900 or asking
00:15:55.640 somebody
00:15:56.320 about
00:15:57.660 injecting
00:15:59.100 Clorox
00:16:00.060 and Lysol
00:16:00.580 into bodies
00:16:01.500 he actually
00:16:02.500 believed that
00:16:03.200 and tweeted
00:16:04.720 angrily about
00:16:05.620 it
00:16:05.880 but it gets
00:16:07.060 worse
00:16:07.460 he also
00:16:09.280 believed the
00:16:09.920 follow up
00:16:10.540 fake story
00:16:11.260 that
00:16:12.660 it was in
00:16:14.160 the New York
00:16:14.500 Daily News
00:16:15.580 that said
00:16:16.560 there's a spike
00:16:17.380 in calls
00:16:17.980 to the
00:16:18.380 I guess
00:16:18.860 the poison
00:16:19.540 hotlines
00:16:21.080 or whatever
00:16:21.480 asking
00:16:23.280 let's see
00:16:24.060 oh yes
00:16:24.580 it simply
00:16:26.120 states in the
00:16:26.780 article that
00:16:27.300 30 people
00:16:27.900 called the
00:16:28.360 city's
00:16:28.720 poison
00:16:29.020 control
00:16:29.480 hotline
00:16:29.980 over fears
00:16:31.440 that they
00:16:31.760 had ingested
00:16:32.320 bleach or
00:16:32.920 other household
00:16:33.580 cleaners
00:16:34.140 do you see
00:16:36.420 anything wrong
00:16:36.920 with the
00:16:37.200 study
00:16:37.520 the whole
00:16:43.040 coronavirus
00:16:43.560 has caused
00:16:44.500 people to
00:16:45.080 wildly buy
00:16:46.240 and use
00:16:46.880 more
00:16:47.300 household
00:16:48.240 cleaners
00:16:48.880 so we're
00:16:50.240 using household
00:16:50.960 cleaners
00:16:51.620 bleach
00:16:52.320 isopropyl
00:16:53.680 alcohol
00:16:54.040 all those
00:16:54.480 cleaners
00:16:54.840 we're
00:16:55.340 using
00:16:55.640 them
00:16:55.920 at a
00:16:56.260 level
00:16:56.520 that's
00:16:56.800 like
00:16:57.000 10 to
00:16:57.580 20 times
00:16:58.200 more
00:16:58.480 than
00:16:58.700 ever
00:16:58.980 if you're
00:17:00.640 using
00:17:00.920 that
00:17:01.200 stuff
00:17:01.680 10 to
00:17:02.120 20 times
00:17:02.640 more
00:17:02.960 what are
00:17:03.700 the odds
00:17:04.040 you would
00:17:04.300 get more
00:17:04.700 calls
00:17:05.280 about people
00:17:06.460 who think
00:17:06.860 they may have
00:17:07.320 accidentally
00:17:07.820 ingested
00:17:08.340 some
00:17:08.660 of course
00:17:10.340 you will
00:17:10.780 because we're
00:17:11.680 using it
00:17:12.120 about 20
00:17:12.700 times more
00:17:13.220 than normal
00:17:13.760 so just
00:17:14.420 more of it
00:17:15.040 in our
00:17:15.280 environment
00:17:15.760 there are
00:17:16.760 more reasons
00:17:17.380 for somebody
00:17:18.000 to say
00:17:18.360 oh
00:17:18.720 the lid
00:17:19.760 is off
00:17:20.120 this bottle
00:17:20.720 does anybody
00:17:22.040 know why
00:17:22.440 the lid
00:17:22.780 is off
00:17:23.120 this bottle
00:17:23.560 it just
00:17:24.500 creates
00:17:24.920 a zillion
00:17:26.460 opportunities
00:17:27.140 for people
00:17:27.860 to say
00:17:28.240 uh oh
00:17:28.800 did that
00:17:29.760 spill on my
00:17:30.340 sandwich
00:17:30.700 or whatever
00:17:31.200 who knows
00:17:34.160 why people
00:17:34.600 think they
00:17:35.000 get poisoned
00:17:35.620 by household
00:17:37.100 cleaners
00:17:37.680 I don't
00:17:38.040 think it's
00:17:38.480 because they
00:17:38.800 take them
00:17:39.240 intentionally
00:17:39.820 so that
00:17:41.440 so Reason
00:17:42.680 the organization
00:17:43.540 Reason
00:17:44.060 did a
00:17:45.480 debunk
00:17:46.040 on that
00:17:46.460 and just
00:17:46.780 ripped it
00:17:47.140 apart
00:17:47.440 but not
00:17:48.300 until
00:17:48.640 Piers Morgan
00:17:49.360 tweeted it
00:17:50.420 so not
00:17:51.420 only did
00:17:51.860 he believe
00:17:52.540 the fake
00:17:53.240 news
00:17:53.660 that Trump
00:17:55.500 was noodling
00:17:56.640 about the
00:17:57.140 possibility
00:17:57.680 or let's
00:17:58.220 say wondering
00:17:58.780 aloud
00:17:59.260 about injecting
00:18:01.020 people with
00:18:01.600 Clorox
00:18:02.160 and
00:18:02.640 and uh
00:18:04.520 what was the
00:18:05.360 other thing
00:18:05.780 uh Clorox
00:18:06.860 and Lysol
00:18:07.380 uh
00:18:08.800 so he
00:18:10.040 believes that
00:18:10.400 but then he
00:18:10.860 believes that
00:18:11.820 this has
00:18:12.180 actually caused
00:18:12.940 this spike
00:18:13.560 in poisonings
00:18:14.920 which was the
00:18:15.820 second fake
00:18:16.380 news
00:18:16.780 I mean
00:18:18.520 seriously
00:18:19.100 seriously
00:18:22.220 all right
00:18:23.280 uh
00:18:25.460 here's some
00:18:26.380 uh
00:18:26.840 some good
00:18:28.380 news
00:18:28.660 Trump is
00:18:29.180 reviving the
00:18:29.820 U.S.
00:18:30.120 nuclear program
00:18:30.960 I don't know
00:18:32.080 exactly what it
00:18:32.920 means to
00:18:33.480 revive the
00:18:34.380 nuclear program
00:18:35.220 but it's
00:18:35.780 you know
00:18:36.180 John Solomon
00:18:37.220 reported it
00:18:38.060 it's a story
00:18:38.740 apparently the
00:18:40.220 focus at least
00:18:41.380 initially will be
00:18:42.200 on opening
00:18:42.820 uranium mines
00:18:44.600 I believe
00:18:45.180 so that we
00:18:46.060 won't have to
00:18:46.500 worry about
00:18:46.860 anybody else
00:18:47.360 for our
00:18:47.860 uranium
00:18:48.760 sounds like
00:18:49.680 a good idea
00:18:50.200 plus you
00:18:51.460 know for
00:18:51.840 long-term
00:18:52.740 competitive
00:18:53.240 reasons we
00:18:53.860 have to have
00:18:54.240 a good
00:18:55.220 nuclear
00:18:55.620 stuff
00:18:56.320 so Vox
00:18:57.880 did uh
00:18:58.740 Vox did an
00:18:59.300 article about
00:18:59.960 quote a
00:19:00.720 disturbing new
00:19:01.420 study that
00:19:02.580 suggests Sean
00:19:03.280 Hannity's show
00:19:03.980 helped spread
00:19:04.620 the uh
00:19:06.040 helped spread
00:19:06.880 the coronavirus
00:19:07.560 so the idea
00:19:10.260 is that
00:19:10.720 people this
00:19:12.280 is their
00:19:12.620 claim
00:19:13.040 it's pretty
00:19:14.040 ridiculous
00:19:14.560 but their
00:19:15.620 claim is that
00:19:16.220 people who
00:19:16.620 watched Tucker
00:19:17.200 Carlson who
00:19:18.140 was more
00:19:19.680 alarmist if you
00:19:20.760 if you use
00:19:21.380 that word
00:19:21.700 about the
00:19:22.660 coronavirus that
00:19:23.800 they had better
00:19:24.640 outcomes in
00:19:25.440 terms of not
00:19:26.080 getting it
00:19:26.620 than people who
00:19:27.780 watched Hannity
00:19:28.560 and I don't
00:19:31.040 know this is
00:19:31.520 just like the
00:19:32.680 most ridiculous
00:19:33.440 study and I
00:19:35.380 just tweeted and
00:19:36.060 asked people to
00:19:36.820 you know spot all
00:19:38.020 the mistakes
00:19:38.680 you know so
00:19:39.380 first of all it's
00:19:39.940 not peer
00:19:40.480 reviewed
00:19:40.880 second of all
00:19:42.280 where's your
00:19:43.000 control there's
00:19:44.300 no control
00:19:44.860 group they
00:19:45.380 just compared
00:19:46.040 Hannity viewers
00:19:47.720 to Tucker
00:19:48.260 viewers how
00:19:49.240 many how many
00:19:49.780 of them are
00:19:50.200 the same
00:19:50.680 viewers I
00:19:51.920 don't know do
00:19:52.380 they account
00:19:52.800 for that who
00:19:53.360 knows is
00:19:55.420 there any
00:19:55.720 selection bias
00:19:56.900 meaning that
00:19:57.540 the people who
00:19:58.100 choose to watch
00:19:59.040 Hannity are
00:20:00.340 they you know
00:20:01.140 in any way if
00:20:02.160 you pulled them
00:20:02.820 would they be
00:20:03.280 different than
00:20:04.320 the people who
00:20:04.900 choose to watch
00:20:06.200 Tucker probably
00:20:07.800 wouldn't you say
00:20:08.820 because because
00:20:09.860 Tucker and
00:20:10.320 Hannity are
00:20:10.860 different enough
00:20:11.780 that you would
00:20:12.880 expect over time
00:20:13.900 that there would
00:20:14.900 be a self
00:20:15.620 selection of
00:20:16.620 people who had
00:20:17.080 a certain
00:20:17.440 philosophical
00:20:18.280 leaning would
00:20:19.880 you know go
00:20:20.580 one way versus
00:20:21.260 the other
00:20:21.620 so it's a
00:20:22.940 it's it's the
00:20:23.900 most garbage
00:20:24.640 study that
00:20:26.360 has a no
00:20:27.260 no credibility
00:20:28.340 whatsoever
00:20:29.020 and to even
00:20:30.040 see this in the
00:20:30.900 news is just
00:20:31.520 laughable
00:20:31.960 so I don't
00:20:34.200 know if any
00:20:34.620 of our news
00:20:35.100 today was real
00:20:35.880 did we have
00:20:37.240 any real news
00:20:37.960 today
00:20:38.280 I don't know
00:20:40.240 it's hard to
00:20:41.120 tell
00:20:41.380 so here's
00:20:43.920 some more
00:20:44.400 good news
00:20:46.060 kind of
00:20:47.480 a USA Today
00:20:48.460 poll found
00:20:49.220 that 71%
00:20:50.560 of minorities
00:20:51.240 in this country
00:20:52.040 support a ban
00:20:53.600 on immigration
00:20:54.220 to fight the
00:20:54.900 coronavirus pandemic
00:20:56.020 which does
00:20:57.220 suggest that
00:20:58.360 at least the
00:20:59.000 coronaviruses
00:20:59.780 may be bringing
00:21:00.540 us together
00:21:01.200 because at
00:21:03.420 least on this
00:21:04.000 in this case
00:21:05.140 people are on
00:21:05.760 the same page
00:21:06.360 here's the
00:21:07.980 weirdest
00:21:08.260 cool story
00:21:09.900 Tom Hanks
00:21:11.380 who as you
00:21:11.980 know had
00:21:12.400 coronavirus
00:21:12.900 his blood
00:21:15.340 is going to
00:21:15.820 be used to
00:21:16.400 develop a
00:21:17.180 COVID-19
00:21:18.360 vaccine
00:21:19.000 how much
00:21:20.900 would you
00:21:21.220 love to
00:21:21.680 have the
00:21:22.820 Tom Hanks
00:21:23.480 vaccine
00:21:24.100 and you'd
00:21:25.660 know I
00:21:26.280 got a little
00:21:26.600 bit of
00:21:27.020 Tom Hanks
00:21:28.620 I don't know
00:21:29.380 whatever they
00:21:30.400 take out of
00:21:30.880 Tom Hanks
00:21:31.440 do you get
00:21:31.820 his DNA
00:21:32.300 in here or
00:21:32.780 what and
00:21:34.120 so I
00:21:34.460 ask is
00:21:35.220 that something
00:21:35.660 Tom Cruise
00:21:36.300 could do
00:21:36.720 no could
00:21:37.900 Tom Cruise
00:21:38.660 turn part of
00:21:39.620 his body
00:21:40.100 he could
00:21:42.040 not but
00:21:43.100 Tom Hanks
00:21:43.700 is going to
00:21:44.160 turn part of
00:21:44.800 his body
00:21:45.380 you know the
00:21:46.700 blood part
00:21:47.240 he's going to
00:21:48.860 turn it into
00:21:49.540 maybe a
00:21:50.280 cure for
00:21:51.420 a devastating
00:21:53.280 world problem
00:21:54.260 somebody says
00:21:57.460 why him
00:21:58.000 I don't know
00:21:58.980 maybe because
00:21:59.760 he was easy
00:22:00.240 to find and
00:22:01.060 he was willing
00:22:01.760 to volunteer
00:22:02.340 maybe he
00:22:03.560 was the
00:22:03.800 right age
00:22:04.360 I don't
00:22:04.640 know but
00:22:05.760 that's the
00:22:06.200 story
00:22:06.480 here's some
00:22:08.920 other interesting
00:22:10.340 stories so
00:22:11.740 doctors at the
00:22:12.420 University of
00:22:13.240 Chicago medicine
00:22:14.240 say that
00:22:16.120 instead of
00:22:16.680 using the
00:22:17.180 ventilators
00:22:17.820 they're having
00:22:18.500 quote truly
00:22:20.160 remarkable
00:22:20.760 results using
00:22:22.460 some kind of
00:22:23.100 just a nasal
00:22:24.100 nasal airflow
00:22:25.820 thing so it's
00:22:26.580 just something
00:22:26.980 that goes up
00:22:27.440 your nostrils
00:22:28.040 instead of
00:22:28.560 down your
00:22:28.860 throat and
00:22:30.700 it's just a
00:22:32.100 I guess it's a
00:22:32.920 gentler
00:22:33.400 airflow situation
00:22:34.640 I don't know
00:22:35.600 exactly why it
00:22:36.420 works but they
00:22:37.020 say that that
00:22:37.620 plus laying
00:22:38.800 people on their
00:22:39.400 stomachs which
00:22:40.140 apparently is a
00:22:40.740 big deal they
00:22:41.660 found out was
00:22:44.160 taking people from
00:22:45.080 low oxygen to
00:22:46.000 high oxygen and
00:22:47.780 I think only one
00:22:48.640 of them needed a
00:22:49.280 ventilator so
00:22:50.560 this little trick
00:22:52.180 first of all makes
00:22:54.820 it a less expensive
00:22:56.060 device I think the
00:22:57.180 nose thing is
00:22:57.740 probably less
00:22:58.140 expensive less
00:22:59.080 complicated although
00:23:00.420 we might have a
00:23:01.060 shortage of them
00:23:01.740 we may have all
00:23:03.560 these ventilators
00:23:04.280 that we don't
00:23:04.740 need but we
00:23:05.940 might have a
00:23:06.420 shortage of
00:23:06.880 these nasal
00:23:08.400 cannulas whatever
00:23:11.280 that is they're
00:23:11.880 high flow nasal
00:23:12.780 cannulas so and
00:23:17.060 they blow large
00:23:17.720 volumes of warm
00:23:18.500 humidified air into
00:23:19.600 the nose and lungs
00:23:20.620 it could be the
00:23:21.780 the warm humidified
00:23:23.240 part might be the
00:23:24.120 important part I
00:23:24.960 know so that seems
00:23:27.600 like a gigantic
00:23:28.300 thing because if
00:23:30.140 it turns out that
00:23:30.940 there's a lower
00:23:31.620 cost way to to
00:23:33.640 save the people
00:23:34.540 who have already
00:23:35.120 become ventilator
00:23:37.060 sick and they
00:23:38.380 don't need to be
00:23:38.920 on ventilators
00:23:39.540 because that seems
00:23:40.200 to be closer to a
00:23:41.220 one-way trip these
00:23:42.020 days this could be
00:23:43.820 huge I mean this
00:23:44.640 could be one of
00:23:45.220 the this could be
00:23:46.920 one of the biggest
00:23:47.640 things ever all
00:23:48.600 here's some other
00:23:49.100 funny things there's
00:23:50.640 a little mystery why
00:23:51.460 people who are
00:23:52.140 longtime smokers
00:23:53.540 are actually having
00:23:56.380 better health
00:23:57.540 outcomes with the
00:23:58.660 virus and it
00:23:59.820 doesn't make sense
00:24:00.560 now some people
00:24:01.280 said okay it's
00:24:02.260 because of whatever
00:24:03.400 the smoke has done
00:24:04.180 to the lungs over
00:24:05.000 the years makes them
00:24:06.120 less susceptible but
00:24:08.340 then there's also a
00:24:09.120 theory that it's the
00:24:09.860 nicotine now don't go
00:24:12.520 out and do anything
00:24:13.140 about this so don't
00:24:14.680 get your medical
00:24:15.560 advice from cartoonists
00:24:16.660 but there's speculation
00:24:18.880 that the nicotine and
00:24:20.040 there's you know
00:24:20.800 there's a known
00:24:21.760 a known connection
00:24:24.260 to the ACE2
00:24:25.080 inhibitors or
00:24:25.880 whatever receptors
00:24:26.720 so there's some
00:24:27.840 reason it should
00:24:28.400 work that's good
00:24:29.800 maybe that's a
00:24:30.740 thing let's say I
00:24:35.940 think the bad news
00:24:36.660 is that there's
00:24:37.700 more hints that
00:24:38.920 there might not be
00:24:39.760 immunity that builds
00:24:40.840 up but the weird
00:24:42.100 the weird thing
00:24:42.880 about that is if
00:24:43.920 it's true that you
00:24:45.920 can't build up an
00:24:46.860 immunity to it
00:24:47.660 then there's
00:24:49.840 probably no reason
00:24:50.700 to not go back to
00:24:51.680 work am I right
00:24:53.700 so is this good news
00:24:56.340 or bad news it
00:24:57.120 depends who dies I
00:24:58.060 suppose if somebody
00:24:59.020 you know dies it's
00:24:59.900 bad bad news but if
00:25:01.060 you go back to work
00:25:01.980 and that's the only
00:25:03.320 thing that happens is
00:25:03.980 good news so if
00:25:06.120 let's say let's say
00:25:07.340 we got confirmation
00:25:08.360 in the next week or
00:25:09.480 two and we got a
00:25:10.940 confirmation that you
00:25:12.480 don't build immunity
00:25:13.600 that is weird that way
00:25:15.540 it's like the only
00:25:16.380 virus where you
00:25:17.580 don't build immunity
00:25:18.360 now first of all
00:25:19.220 I'm still skeptical
00:25:21.080 I still completely
00:25:22.960 doubt that people
00:25:24.940 don't get immunity
00:25:25.840 I think they do
00:25:26.840 there might be some
00:25:28.840 you know some
00:25:29.880 detail of this
00:25:31.060 that's different
00:25:31.560 but if it turns out
00:25:34.880 that there's no
00:25:35.520 immunity and we
00:25:37.400 know we can't wait
00:25:38.420 for the vaccine
00:25:39.360 because that would be
00:25:40.460 too much of a
00:25:41.220 wait don't we just
00:25:42.880 go back to work
00:25:43.720 because if we can't
00:25:45.140 count on herd
00:25:45.820 immunity and we
00:25:47.500 know we can't wait
00:25:48.280 so long that we'll
00:25:49.220 you know we could
00:25:49.860 wait it out to the
00:25:51.140 vaccine there would be
00:25:52.360 nothing left of us
00:25:53.220 we might as well go
00:25:54.480 back to work so it'd
00:25:56.280 be kind of bad news
00:25:57.100 that's good news right
00:25:57.960 help me think that
00:26:00.820 through because I'm
00:26:01.400 not sure that what
00:26:02.920 I'm saying makes
00:26:03.560 sense I think it
00:26:04.460 would make sense if
00:26:06.020 there was nothing on
00:26:06.720 the horizon that was
00:26:07.600 just going to stop
00:26:08.400 this thing if the
00:26:09.680 only thing we had
00:26:10.400 was some therapeutics
00:26:11.560 and better testing
00:26:12.360 and stuff I think
00:26:13.840 we just say well
00:26:14.700 it is what it is
00:26:16.400 let's just open
00:26:17.720 the doors now
00:26:19.200 here's a thought
00:26:20.840 that I don't know
00:26:21.540 if everybody is
00:26:22.220 completely let's
00:26:25.340 say considered in
00:26:27.440 their opinion of
00:26:28.140 what might happen
00:26:28.780 in the future
00:26:29.300 are you thinking
00:26:31.020 to yourself that
00:26:32.200 there's a point
00:26:32.780 where the public
00:26:33.480 might revolt and
00:26:35.520 just say ah
00:26:36.380 screw these
00:26:37.560 guidelines we're
00:26:38.540 just going to open
00:26:39.180 up our businesses
00:26:39.960 because I'm here
00:26:41.980 to tell you that
00:26:42.700 can't happen no
00:26:45.060 matter what we
00:26:45.940 individuals do I
00:26:47.360 think individuals
00:26:48.120 will probably
00:26:48.860 massively disregard
00:26:50.260 the guidelines pretty
00:26:51.420 soon as they already
00:26:52.480 are so I think
00:26:53.440 individuals are going
00:26:54.500 to go to the beach
00:26:55.300 they're going to go
00:26:55.860 to the park they're
00:26:57.120 going to take walks
00:26:57.740 so I think individuals
00:26:58.800 will in fact massively
00:27:01.300 just say okay yeah
00:27:03.800 we're just not going
00:27:04.680 to do this anymore
00:27:05.440 we'll be smart you
00:27:07.080 know we'll try to
00:27:07.540 keep our distance
00:27:08.160 we'll do the obvious
00:27:08.980 things but we're
00:27:10.580 just going to go
00:27:11.040 to the park you
00:27:11.960 can't tell us not
00:27:12.660 to go to the park
00:27:13.380 you can't tell us
00:27:14.480 not to you know
00:27:15.920 not to go fishing
00:27:16.780 but that doesn't
00:27:20.280 work with businesses
00:27:21.460 everybody who has
00:27:24.480 been involved in any
00:27:25.480 kind of a small
00:27:26.040 business knows it
00:27:26.960 doesn't work because
00:27:28.140 you can say to
00:27:28.740 yourself all right
00:27:29.520 I'm going to open
00:27:30.880 my donut store you
00:27:33.240 could try but then
00:27:34.800 the police walk in
00:27:35.720 and they say we're
00:27:37.800 going to pull your
00:27:38.260 permit how long do
00:27:40.640 you resist if you're
00:27:42.600 the donut shop and
00:27:44.580 the police come in
00:27:45.360 and say you know
00:27:46.220 it's against guidelines
00:27:47.300 can't let you do it
00:27:48.560 we're going to pull
00:27:49.060 your permit to do
00:27:50.400 business or we're
00:27:52.780 going to what fine
00:27:54.040 you something you
00:27:54.960 can't afford it would
00:27:56.820 be the easiest thing
00:27:57.760 in the world for the
00:27:59.020 authorities anywhere to
00:28:01.140 stop small businesses
00:28:02.540 from opening it'd be
00:28:03.640 really easy and it'd
00:28:04.740 be even easier to stop
00:28:05.860 big businesses because
00:28:07.500 you can just say to
00:28:08.520 them directly hey
00:28:09.320 you're a big business
00:28:10.260 CEO not yet so you
00:28:13.280 wouldn't get CEOs to
00:28:14.720 go rogue and the
00:28:16.500 small businesses are
00:28:17.500 too vulnerable they're
00:28:18.620 not going to take a
00:28:19.480 chance you know even
00:28:21.040 in desperation the
00:28:23.760 police can still shut
00:28:24.720 them down easily and
00:28:25.920 you don't have to shut
00:28:26.640 too many down before
00:28:28.260 everybody says ah this
00:28:29.460 isn't working so I
00:28:31.040 don't think there can
00:28:32.040 be somebody says
00:28:33.540 health code violations
00:28:34.560 they can always find
00:28:35.600 something so I don't
00:28:37.840 think there can be an
00:28:40.340 echo we're going back
00:28:43.920 to work it's just too
00:28:45.360 easy to stop them but
00:28:47.140 the individuals will of
00:28:48.280 course here's some
00:28:51.700 other stuff that might
00:28:53.240 be good there's some
00:28:56.140 indication that an
00:28:57.100 existing asthma drug
00:28:58.520 called Singulair
00:28:59.720 Singulair shows promise
00:29:02.500 for treating COVID-19
00:29:05.860 that would be good
00:29:07.680 now that's again it's
00:29:09.120 one of many things we're
00:29:10.180 looking at but there's
00:29:12.180 some reason to believe
00:29:13.360 that this is a strong
00:29:15.320 contender wouldn't that
00:29:16.300 be great then Australia
00:29:18.620 has introduced today
00:29:19.880 their contact tracer an
00:29:22.420 app that figures out who
00:29:24.580 comes in contact with who
00:29:25.960 and if you get I guess it's
00:29:28.500 is voluntary but if you use
00:29:31.360 the app and you also get
00:29:34.020 tested as positive then and
00:29:36.660 only then it becomes
00:29:38.620 unencrypted and I guess
00:29:40.320 authorities can figure out
00:29:41.420 who you contacted or who you
00:29:43.420 were near and then they can
00:29:44.440 contact them and somebody
00:29:46.860 says they're already on that
00:29:48.120 now is that as good as I'm not
00:29:51.580 as informed as I should be
00:29:53.020 about what Apple and Google are
00:29:54.500 doing don't we basically have
00:29:56.680 that is what Apple and Google
00:30:00.040 are doing together where
00:30:01.440 they're I guess pooling their
00:30:03.200 data of location information
00:30:05.200 is that the same or as good
00:30:07.680 as or not as good as the
00:30:09.400 Australian app so I don't know
00:30:12.680 I don't know if we're doing
00:30:14.520 something similar or better
00:30:15.740 so here's the thing how long can
00:30:22.560 government go without taxes
00:30:24.100 all right I didn't want to say
00:30:28.680 this but I feel like somebody
00:30:30.880 has to say it out loud there's
00:30:33.760 there's a few things that you
00:30:36.520 just don't want to say out loud
00:30:37.900 but we can't really avoid it
00:30:41.680 anymore there isn't any
00:30:44.040 scenario in which restaurants are
00:30:45.860 going to get back to full revenue
00:30:48.300 you'd agree right now you could
00:30:51.520 say well someday yeah like in a
00:30:53.320 year or two but and I don't know
00:30:55.920 any restaurant that could
00:30:57.660 survive if their business went
00:30:59.660 down 20 percent for a year
00:31:01.300 because business restaurants don't
00:31:03.980 have much margin and they're kind
00:31:06.440 of permanently at least a small
00:31:08.160 restaurants especially I think
00:31:10.360 every restaurant will be pushed
00:31:11.760 below the profitability line so if
00:31:15.620 they have to lose money every month
00:31:17.420 just to be open how many small
00:31:19.940 restaurants are going to lose
00:31:21.160 money every month just to be open
00:31:23.420 you know at what point do they
00:31:25.160 just say well I better do
00:31:26.840 something else because I can't
00:31:27.980 lose more money so I don't know
00:31:30.980 that there's any way restaurants
00:31:32.580 can survive I don't see any path
00:31:35.700 for that now of course you know if
00:31:39.020 we had enough time things would
00:31:41.180 change and adjust and you know
00:31:43.300 there's always a way to adjust to
00:31:44.880 things in the long run but in the
00:31:46.740 short run it's hard for me to see
00:31:49.420 any scenario in which there are
00:31:51.320 still restaurants in a year from
00:31:52.820 now except for takeout yeah takeout
00:31:55.960 will be bustling I hope I'm wrong
00:31:59.400 and I hope that we come up with
00:32:00.780 some way to do that now to your
00:32:02.220 question how long can the
00:32:03.760 government go without taxes how long
00:32:06.640 can we print money like you know
00:32:09.100 we've printed more money than our GDP
00:32:12.000 at this point just for this year I
00:32:14.720 think now how long somebody says
00:32:18.340 food trucks yeah maybe food trucks
00:32:19.900 will be a bigger deal how long can
00:32:24.200 the country go without tax revenue
00:32:26.540 how long can we run up how long can
00:32:29.080 we print money first of all nobody
00:32:31.080 knows but I feel as though the only
00:32:35.100 thing that's going to happen well let
00:32:38.140 me make a bigger story about this the
00:32:40.940 coronavirus is destroying a system
00:32:44.460 that was not sustainable think about
00:32:48.600 that that there's there's your mind
00:32:51.000 your mind effing thought for the night
00:32:53.400 this the system we had the one we were
00:32:56.440 living in that was doing so well and
00:32:59.040 unemployment was low and everything it
00:33:01.000 was completely unsustainable wasn't even
00:33:04.120 close to being sustainable and everybody
00:33:07.620 knew it meaning that the debt was out of
00:33:10.520 control and there were some demographic
00:33:13.160 you know time bombs that were coming
00:33:15.020 for you know welfare and everything
00:33:16.620 else and then the robots are going to
00:33:18.560 take the jobs and of course you know
00:33:21.100 we've got every every other problem in
00:33:22.740 the world so we before coronavirus we
00:33:25.940 had a system that couldn't possibly
00:33:27.600 work it was going to fail we didn't
00:33:30.720 know when yeah we didn't know if we had
00:33:32.640 10 years or 20 but we didn't have
00:33:35.460 anything that looked like a path to
00:33:38.520 stop runaway spending which eventually
00:33:40.560 would crush the system and everybody
00:33:42.260 knew it there was no no no democrat
00:33:44.820 no republican no nobody every single
00:33:48.120 person knew we were pretending to be in
00:33:51.000 a system that could last and we weren't
00:33:53.240 we were not in a system that had any
00:33:55.720 chance of lasting and now now the
00:33:59.440 question has been called because the
00:34:01.000 coronavirus just said hey let me remove
00:34:03.720 all of your assumptions let me take
00:34:05.980 away all your safety let me let me change
00:34:08.080 all the rules and suddenly we look at
00:34:11.040 and say hey our system is completely
00:34:13.500 dismantled what are you going to do
00:34:16.580 and the answer of course will be what we
00:34:20.820 always do which is to reinvent we will
00:34:23.540 reinvent we will come back stronger and
00:34:27.240 the reason we'll come back stronger is
00:34:29.240 because of this destruction it it just is
00:34:32.480 you know breaking everything so you have
00:34:34.220 to you have to come up with a new way for
00:34:36.460 everything the biggest change I think
00:34:39.300 will will be that I think we're going to
00:34:42.860 have let me just sort of brainstorm out
00:34:47.780 loud I'll be thinking aloud here so don't
00:34:51.200 take this too seriously as of today this
00:34:53.920 is a brand new thought I feel like the
00:34:56.200 only way that society can go forward is
00:34:59.300 with a universal basic income that everybody
00:35:02.880 gets regardless of your income and it
00:35:05.520 would go something like this just just for
00:35:08.380 conversation that everyone in the country
00:35:10.980 gets a hundred thousand dollars or maybe
00:35:12.920 every household gets a little more if they
00:35:14.780 have kids and stuff but let's say every
00:35:17.060 single individual gets just a hundred
00:35:18.760 thousand dollars but there's a catch the
00:35:22.180 only thing you can spend your hundred thousand
00:35:24.140 dollars on is shelter and energy and the
00:35:28.040 basics you couldn't buy a car with it you
00:35:30.660 couldn't you couldn't buy clothes with it
00:35:33.120 so I almost think that we need a second
00:35:36.120 currency you know one currency that's your
00:35:40.080 universal basic income and you've you've
00:35:43.080 you've got it in your let's say it's in your
00:35:44.860 wallet let's say it's a digital currency and
00:35:47.440 you can use it at the grocery store you can
00:35:49.320 use it to pay your rent all your basics but
00:35:51.800 you just can't use it for luxury and
00:35:54.640 somebody says this is horrible I'm out
00:35:58.200 have you heard the idea whoever said
00:36:02.000 this are seriously seriously uh
00:36:05.140 twitterfine who says this is horrible I'm
00:36:07.440 out now are you an economist are you a
00:36:11.740 professional economist who is also a
00:36:13.740 mind reader because not only can you see
00:36:16.420 all of the ramifications of this idea
00:36:18.480 which has never been tried but at the same
00:36:21.800 time you can read my mind and you know how
00:36:24.580 the sentences are going to end so you're
00:36:27.240 out you know how about opening your mind
00:36:30.500 just a little bit just a little bit so
00:36:33.880 here's what I'm you know I'm not even
00:36:36.700 claiming that I'm proposing a good idea I'm
00:36:39.080 just brainstorming here so settle down
00:36:40.840 so the idea would be that you need to keep
00:36:45.960 free market incentives no matter what and
00:36:48.980 there was there would always be enough
00:36:50.360 people like me who say well I'm not happy
00:36:53.120 with the basic life I need I need a real
00:36:55.880 life I need a life where you know I can
00:36:58.840 grow and do things and you know make an
00:37:01.440 impact and stuff like that so I could still
00:37:04.160 go do my thing and then I could own earn earn as
00:37:06.980 much as I want just like now now somebody
00:37:10.940 says it's socialism but let me say this as
00:37:14.500 clearly as I can if you're if you're
00:37:18.420 dismissing it because it's socialism that
00:37:20.380 means you don't understand it right so let
00:37:23.700 me say as clearly as possible you're not
00:37:25.800 disagreeing with it because it's socialism
00:37:27.980 you're not understanding it because we
00:37:32.140 currently have a system that has all kinds
00:37:34.000 of socialism built into it this would just
00:37:36.700 be a simplification of existing socialism we
00:37:40.840 you know if you're saying to yourself
00:37:42.740 Scott Scott Scott you know I'll never live in
00:37:46.420 this system with socialism I say to you
00:37:48.600 we're already here the coronavirus has just
00:37:52.780 made it painfully obvious that the
00:37:55.500 government is is going to be supporting
00:37:57.840 most of the public probably for the long
00:38:00.520 run because most of the public won't have
00:38:02.900 enough skills when the you know when the
00:38:05.700 robots come this is just you know Andrew Yang's
00:38:08.480 thing and of course he's right but in the
00:38:11.380 long run there will be people who have the
00:38:14.380 right skills to make extra money and do
00:38:16.840 extra stuff and there'll be a whole bunch
00:38:18.760 of people who just don't have any skills
00:38:20.660 that have any economic value and we're not
00:38:24.060 going to want them to die you know you
00:38:26.100 don't want your grandma to die because she
00:38:27.900 doesn't have good economic skills so the
00:38:30.820 the likelihood of a universal basic income
00:38:34.320 it doesn't matter if you think it's a good
00:38:36.500 idea it really doesn't there's no other
00:38:39.500 alternative and I think Andrew Yang would
00:38:41.560 agree with that you can hate it all day
00:38:43.540 long it's going to happen anyway because
00:38:46.500 there isn't another alternative so so you
00:38:49.560 have to lose you have to lose your fairy
00:38:53.000 tale hallucination that there's some other
00:38:55.780 path where that doesn't happen that doesn't
00:38:58.480 exist anymore and and I think the
00:39:02.620 coronavirus made plain that some number of
00:39:06.400 people just have to have to have a
00:39:07.780 simplified life now here are some ways you
00:39:10.220 could go about it you could for example
00:39:11.780 say there are certain states or counties
00:39:14.120 or locations where the people who live
00:39:17.300 there are all the people who have lower
00:39:19.040 cost housing they they ride their bikes
00:39:21.880 everywhere it's maybe it's a designed city
00:39:24.740 so that everything's closed you can walk to
00:39:26.860 it you know the the housing is designed
00:39:29.620 from scratch to be really low cost but
00:39:31.900 high efficiency and and those people just
00:39:35.100 live there and they can live there as long
00:39:36.760 as they want they just can't grow so so you
00:39:40.700 still have your market incentives like
00:39:42.740 crazy just like now but the people who
00:39:45.800 don't really have any chance of making it in
00:39:47.660 the future would also have some way to to get
00:39:51.280 by and and then they could also they can
00:39:54.880 move up if they want to based on their own
00:39:56.680 work all right so
00:39:59.720 remember if you hear this idea and you say
00:40:04.240 to yourself that's impractical it will never
00:40:06.320 work
00:40:06.680 you have to finish the sentence because you
00:40:10.900 can't say it's a bad idea that's not the
00:40:14.220 you haven't finished the sentence the rest of
00:40:16.560 the sentence is compared to and then you say
00:40:20.360 what you're comparing it to now if you say no
00:40:23.060 so Scott I don't like your idea because you
00:40:26.840 know capitalism the way we did it before
00:40:28.700 works so well to which I say no it didn't it
00:40:32.600 was a complete failure we just didn't get the we
00:40:35.440 didn't get the bill yet the only reason that
00:40:37.740 we had any economic security or or economic let's
00:40:41.240 say growth is because we borrowed the money from
00:40:43.560 from from young people who don't know it yet so
00:40:47.840 we didn't have actual productivity we had a sort
00:40:51.600 of fake financial one that felt good for a
00:40:53.780 while so if you if you want to go back to the
00:40:56.000 other system that's not a plan because the
00:40:59.100 other system doesn't even exist you know it's
00:41:03.680 not like you can get on the path that takes you to
00:41:06.040 grandma's house it there is no path to grandma's
00:41:09.480 house you can't get on something that was never
00:41:11.740 there in the first place we just pretended it was
00:41:13.640 there so in the long run I think that we will
00:41:17.400 figure out how to live cheaper better lives
00:41:20.080 that will be more bulletproof you know we'll be
00:41:22.560 better in every way I'm pretty sure that the the
00:41:25.960 golden age is still now somebody says UBI is
00:41:30.740 death is there any thinking behind that I don't
00:41:36.480 know that there is tiny houses for everyone
00:41:41.080 someone says I don't know
00:41:42.380 coronavirus has shown that cities are no longer a
00:41:49.360 viable concept there's something to that
00:41:51.980 traffic tells you that cities are no longer a
00:41:56.140 viable concept yeah if you tried to spend time in
00:41:59.120 New York City New York City is completely
00:42:01.920 broken in terms of trying to get from one place
00:42:05.020 to another you're you're basically trapped or it's
00:42:08.760 just a horrible you know horrible experience to get
00:42:11.620 anywhere I mean you can go in the subways but then
00:42:13.520 you're you know you've got all those problems
00:42:15.940 somebody says Scott Scott Scott we already have UBI
00:42:20.780 it's called welfare well it's not it's not what I I
00:42:25.400 just described because if you get your welfare check you
00:42:28.820 can spend on anything you want and I do not recommend
00:42:32.280 debt that would be anti that would be a bad incentive
00:42:36.940 but you will you don't want those people to die you want
00:42:40.380 them to have the basics of life but if they want a little
00:42:42.980 extra they're gonna have to work for it
00:42:45.580 where would the money come from where did where did
00:42:51.880 Bitcoin come from you know where did the money come from that
00:42:55.560 we just printed so one of the weird things about money is
00:42:58.980 that you can just print it you can just make it you can just
00:43:01.780 say oh we got money now and of course governments can do
00:43:05.140 that in a way that individuals can't and the reason that
00:43:08.340 the United States can just invent money is that they can say
00:43:12.280 we'll accept it in taxes so as soon as the government says
00:43:15.740 yeah if you pay your taxes and this kind of money we'll take
00:43:18.240 it well that gives the money value because you always have
00:43:21.180 something you can buy with it which is paying your taxes so
00:43:24.940 the government can create a currency and a nothing and just
00:43:28.700 say well we back it so here it is you know we're gonna send
00:43:32.580 you some money if you don't want it you don't have to take
00:43:35.180 it but wouldn't it be nice you could use it to buy some
00:43:37.840 groceries
00:43:38.240 all right Nival's opposition to UBI is very persuasive
00:43:46.940 yeah you know I can see what's happening here which is
00:43:49.680 um uh this is why this is why we can't have nice things
00:43:54.640 if if anything that you say about what I've been talking about here
00:44:00.180 is that UBI doesn't work or that socialism is bad
00:44:04.340 then you didn't understand what I said
00:44:06.520 all right because I'm not I'm not recommending
00:44:09.760 you know Andrew Yang's version of UBI
00:44:12.320 because his would let you spend it on anything you want
00:44:15.500 and I think that's a flaw in the flaw in it
00:44:17.360 I don't know what Nival's um uh his I don't know what his objection is
00:44:22.660 but I would assume it's because of what it does to um incentives
00:44:26.900 and I've described a situation where the people who get the basic income
00:44:31.800 can only have a basic life
00:44:33.680 and if that's good enough well they don't need to do anymore
00:44:37.400 but most people would say you know I'd like a little extra
00:44:40.600 I'm gonna I'm gonna do a little extra work
00:44:43.740 all right um yeah so so all the things that people say
00:44:51.620 about uh this could cause inflation
00:44:53.640 etc those are all true
00:44:56.520 but again you have to compare it to a system
00:44:59.540 that can't work doesn't work
00:45:01.040 was already broken which was our current system
00:45:03.540 so we don't actually have a system that works
00:45:06.480 nor do we have an idea for one that would work
00:45:09.500 we don't have one to go back to
00:45:12.020 and we have no idea how to build one
00:45:14.160 but we do have those skills
00:45:16.880 so I do believe that you know
00:45:19.400 the country possesses in abundance
00:45:22.220 enough smart people who could say you know
00:45:24.760 let's try this
00:45:26.400 let's let's uh
00:45:28.800 let's print some uh
00:45:31.300 some money that we use for the basics
00:45:33.440 and we use our other money for everything else
00:45:35.460 and international trade and all that
00:45:37.360 and there you go
00:45:39.160 um
00:45:40.060 debate Naval
00:45:41.580 I'll bet we would not
00:45:43.280 see now the fact that you say that
00:45:46.000 makes me think you don't understand what I'm saying
00:45:48.720 because I don't think we would disagree
00:45:51.640 I don't think
00:45:54.380 um
00:45:55.880 I'll ask him about it
00:45:58.400 uh right
00:46:00.300 um
00:46:01.020 Naval is about voting for more UBI
00:46:07.120 is the problem that people can just vote themselves a raise
00:46:11.520 is that what you're saying
00:46:12.180 well
00:46:13.460 that's also fixed by mine
00:46:16.220 because the only things they can buy are the basics anyway
00:46:18.820 uh
00:46:21.960 you think the stores have been bogarted
00:46:23.660 way for everything
00:46:24.680 free for all
00:46:26.280 now of course
00:46:27.480 I'm not suggesting anything like that
00:46:29.620 so
00:46:30.420 if I see some objections
00:46:32.220 that show that you understand what I've suggested
00:46:34.920 I might uh
00:46:36.800 engage with them
00:46:38.120 um
00:46:40.260 oh Naval advocates for universal basic necessities
00:46:43.300 that's
00:46:44.440 that's just what I said
00:46:45.560 so it sounds like Naval and I have exactly the same
00:46:48.720 plan
00:46:49.440 why would he disagree with it
00:46:51.320 so if he's saying that we should give people necessities
00:46:53.920 that's just another way of saying
00:46:56.200 um
00:46:56.700 you can't use this money to buy
00:46:58.660 fancy clothes and
00:47:00.040 and a library doodle
00:47:01.420 that's all I'm saying
00:47:02.940 I'm just
00:47:03.540 I'm just saying a mechanism for doing it
00:47:05.340 might be a second currency
00:47:07.080 I don't think he would disagree with that
00:47:08.480 but I'll ask him
00:47:11.540 um
00:47:12.880 aren't there already rules
00:47:14.660 for what you can buy with food stamps
00:47:16.720 yeah
00:47:16.980 food stamps just being
00:47:18.340 a limited example of that
00:47:20.160 that is correct
00:47:21.060 your brainstorming has crashed
00:47:26.380 I don't know what that means
00:47:27.300 somebody says
00:47:29.780 did the simulation create the virus
00:47:31.480 to address climate change
00:47:33.060 well
00:47:33.800 believe it or not
00:47:35.220 that was actually one of my notes
00:47:37.000 and I skipped it
00:47:38.100 because uh
00:47:39.980 I didn't want to sound like a jerk
00:47:41.900 but now because you've asked me this question
00:47:44.360 in the uh
00:47:45.400 comments
00:47:45.800 I can blame you
00:47:47.340 so now I can talk about it
00:47:49.900 so I'll use the lawyer trick
00:47:51.700 well you brought it up
00:47:53.120 I would not have said this
00:47:55.340 this is just a horrible thought
00:47:56.860 but hey you brought it up
00:47:57.960 so
00:47:58.200 it's on you now
00:47:59.820 and it goes like this
00:48:01.360 um
00:48:02.640 you've heard the idea
00:48:04.520 that the
00:48:05.080 that the earth
00:48:05.980 is sort of
00:48:06.900 somehow magically
00:48:07.940 self-regulating
00:48:09.100 that if the
00:48:10.700 if the
00:48:11.020 if the earth gets out of balance
00:48:12.520 in some way
00:48:13.220 then it will find a way
00:48:15.140 and you might not
00:48:16.580 you might not see a coven
00:48:18.160 that it'll find a way
00:48:19.740 to get back in balance
00:48:20.780 now
00:48:21.620 I have no reason to believe
00:48:23.280 that's true
00:48:23.860 right
00:48:25.260 there's
00:48:25.700 I don't know
00:48:27.340 what logic
00:48:28.080 you would use
00:48:28.820 to say that the earth
00:48:29.820 needs to go back to balance
00:48:32.020 because it seems to me
00:48:33.420 that every planet
00:48:34.220 is
00:48:34.500 changed
00:48:35.820 you know
00:48:36.300 every year forever
00:48:37.160 so
00:48:37.680 I don't know
00:48:38.420 there's any reason
00:48:39.340 they would be in balance
00:48:40.100 but
00:48:40.420 if you take the assumption
00:48:42.500 that the earth does
00:48:44.200 know how to balance itself
00:48:46.100 and
00:48:47.100 the earth
00:48:47.760 being the sum
00:48:49.360 of all the creatures
00:48:50.220 and energy on it
00:48:51.120 it's not
00:48:51.480 it's not just the dirt
00:48:52.640 of the earth
00:48:53.660 I'm talking about
00:48:54.200 the animals
00:48:55.180 and creatures
00:48:55.740 and everything else
00:48:56.420 and
00:48:57.600 if there was one thing
00:48:59.460 that could deal with
00:49:00.420 the impact
00:49:01.800 of humans
00:49:02.820 it would be
00:49:04.440 a virus
00:49:05.020 that
00:49:05.480 primarily
00:49:06.340 killed
00:49:07.020 older people
00:49:08.360 and also
00:49:09.760 put such a
00:49:11.180 crimp on
00:49:11.700 economic activity
00:49:12.920 that it
00:49:14.200 cooled the planet
00:49:15.160 and made sure
00:49:16.440 we had enough
00:49:17.040 resources
00:49:17.540 at the same time
00:49:18.600 because
00:49:19.660 as you know
00:49:21.640 if you take
00:49:22.140 let's take healthcare
00:49:22.940 yeah
00:49:25.080 there's some
00:49:26.060 gigantic proportion
00:49:27.380 of the total
00:49:28.200 healthcare you spend
00:49:29.140 for your whole life
00:49:30.100 ends up happening
00:49:31.420 in the last few years
00:49:32.560 of your life
00:49:33.120 because that's when
00:49:34.100 things get expensive
00:49:35.000 so
00:49:36.540 there are going to be
00:49:37.260 a lot of people
00:49:37.920 who would have been
00:49:39.320 very expensive
00:49:40.300 and here's why
00:49:41.120 I'm glad you brought
00:49:41.840 this up instead of me
00:49:42.740 who would be
00:49:43.840 very expensive
00:49:44.500 to the system
00:49:45.460 who if this virus
00:49:47.560 had been
00:49:48.740 created magically
00:49:50.360 by you know
00:49:51.220 the earth
00:49:51.740 trying to balance
00:49:52.520 itself
00:49:52.900 it would be
00:49:54.420 sort of exactly
00:49:55.500 the way to do it
00:49:56.480 the
00:49:57.960 the
00:49:58.740 the thing
00:49:59.620 that's hard
00:49:59.980 to ignore
00:50:00.560 is that
00:50:02.000 if the earth
00:50:02.880 were alive
00:50:03.700 I'm not saying
00:50:04.700 it is
00:50:05.140 but if the world
00:50:06.640 were sort of like
00:50:07.320 conscious
00:50:07.980 and it just said
00:50:09.560 all right
00:50:09.920 I guess
00:50:10.240 it looks like
00:50:10.780 it's getting
00:50:11.060 a little warm
00:50:11.700 in here
00:50:12.100 around here
00:50:13.240 I better do
00:50:14.780 something
00:50:15.200 to adjust it
00:50:16.940 I can't think
00:50:18.140 of anything
00:50:18.520 that would be
00:50:19.080 as effective
00:50:19.760 as this
00:50:20.260 maybe a volcano
00:50:21.100 so it looks
00:50:25.240 weirdly
00:50:25.780 weirdly
00:50:27.160 sort of on
00:50:28.120 the nose
00:50:28.700 for solving
00:50:30.340 climate change
00:50:32.020 but I think
00:50:33.940 the
00:50:34.180 the Michael Moore
00:50:35.200 backed film
00:50:35.920 Planet of the Humans
00:50:36.880 ended green energy
00:50:38.420 as a
00:50:39.060 as an option
00:50:40.220 and I think
00:50:41.020 that the
00:50:41.460 coronavirus
00:50:41.940 and
00:50:43.580 you know
00:50:44.400 everything
00:50:45.100 that's
00:50:45.580 changed
00:50:46.340 about
00:50:46.780 civilization
00:50:47.880 I think
00:50:49.080 it just
00:50:49.340 makes the
00:50:49.740 green new
00:50:50.220 deal
00:50:50.500 seem
00:50:50.960 I don't
00:50:52.780 just not
00:50:53.260 important
00:50:53.700 maybe
00:50:54.720 someday
00:50:55.080 we'll circle
00:50:55.620 back to it
00:50:56.240 but the
00:50:57.000 last thing
00:50:57.460 we have to
00:50:57.820 worry about
00:50:58.180 now
00:50:58.400 is polluting
00:50:59.020 too much
00:50:59.600 sounds like
00:51:03.600 you just
00:51:03.860 validated
00:51:04.420 coronavirus
00:51:05.100 well
00:51:05.680 I wouldn't
00:51:06.660 call it
00:51:06.960 validated
00:51:07.580 somebody
00:51:09.220 says
00:51:09.480 climate
00:51:09.900 models
00:51:10.400 are as
00:51:10.800 accurate
00:51:11.180 as the
00:51:11.660 virus
00:51:11.980 models
00:51:12.340 that is
00:51:13.280 correct
00:51:13.720 which
00:51:14.640 means
00:51:14.940 that
00:51:15.120 they're
00:51:15.280 both
00:51:15.500 useful
00:51:15.900 only
00:51:18.620 people
00:51:18.980 who've
00:51:19.420 done
00:51:19.580 models
00:51:19.960 for
00:51:20.160 living
00:51:20.460 understand
00:51:20.940 that
00:51:21.340 you know
00:51:22.840 the
00:51:23.560 most
00:51:24.100 basic
00:51:25.000 misperception
00:51:25.840 is that
00:51:26.560 people
00:51:26.800 think
00:51:27.100 a
00:51:27.260 model
00:51:27.540 is
00:51:27.820 supposed
00:51:28.140 to
00:51:28.420 tell
00:51:28.600 you
00:51:28.700 what
00:51:28.880 the
00:51:29.000 future
00:51:29.320 will
00:51:29.560 be
00:51:29.780 can't
00:51:31.520 you
00:51:31.960 can't
00:51:32.200 do
00:51:32.300 that
00:51:32.600 nobody
00:51:33.400 can
00:51:33.620 predict
00:51:33.900 the
00:51:34.080 future
00:51:34.380 that's
00:51:35.000 not
00:51:35.140 a
00:51:35.280 thing
00:51:35.540 nobody's
00:51:36.640 ever
00:51:36.800 done
00:51:37.000 that
00:51:37.260 in
00:51:37.520 any
00:51:37.800 domain
00:51:38.280 you know
00:51:39.000 it
00:51:39.220 just
00:51:39.640 isn't
00:51:39.900 a
00:51:40.040 thing
00:51:40.220 what
00:51:41.120 a
00:51:41.260 model
00:51:41.520 can
00:51:41.860 do
00:51:42.160 and
00:51:43.440 I've
00:51:43.700 never
00:51:43.880 explained
00:51:44.280 it
00:51:44.420 this
00:51:44.600 way
00:51:44.760 so
00:51:44.920 this
00:51:45.060 might
00:51:45.240 be
00:51:45.340 the
00:51:45.500 first
00:51:45.720 time
00:51:45.960 you've
00:51:46.240 heard
00:51:46.620 the
00:51:46.820 good
00:51:47.060 explanation
00:51:47.580 what
00:51:48.520 a
00:51:48.660 model
00:51:48.880 can
00:51:49.220 do
00:51:49.520 is
00:51:50.320 if
00:51:50.480 you
00:51:50.620 try
00:51:50.880 all
00:51:51.060 the
00:51:51.200 different
00:51:51.460 variables
00:51:52.020 and
00:51:52.420 no
00:51:52.780 matter
00:51:52.960 what
00:51:53.200 variable
00:51:53.700 you
00:51:53.880 put
00:51:54.060 into
00:51:54.280 it
00:51:54.440 even
00:51:54.620 though
00:51:54.840 they're
00:51:54.980 just
00:51:55.180 estimates
00:51:55.680 and
00:51:55.880 assumptions
00:51:56.260 no
00:51:56.980 matter
00:51:57.180 what
00:51:57.420 you
00:51:57.560 do
00:51:57.860 if
00:51:58.580 it
00:51:58.700 shows
00:51:59.020 that
00:51:59.220 the
00:51:59.400 highest
00:51:59.880 part
00:52:00.200 of
00:52:00.300 the
00:52:00.400 range
00:52:00.800 isn't
00:52:01.300 going
00:52:01.440 to
00:52:01.540 kill
00:52:01.720 you
00:52:01.940 well
00:52:03.160 that's
00:52:03.700 good
00:52:04.040 because
00:52:05.180 you
00:52:05.500 can't
00:52:05.800 know
00:52:05.960 which
00:52:06.160 variables
00:52:06.760 are
00:52:06.960 the
00:52:07.120 right
00:52:07.340 ones
00:52:07.680 or
00:52:07.820 what
00:52:08.020 to
00:52:08.160 put
00:52:08.300 in
00:52:08.500 but
00:52:09.080 if
00:52:09.200 you
00:52:09.320 play
00:52:09.560 with
00:52:09.760 your
00:52:09.880 model
00:52:10.140 all
00:52:10.340 day
00:52:10.480 long
00:52:10.800 and
00:52:10.920 you've
00:52:11.120 changed
00:52:11.400 every
00:52:11.660 variable
00:52:12.080 within
00:52:12.400 the
00:52:12.620 range
00:52:12.900 that
00:52:13.020 you
00:52:13.120 think
00:52:13.300 is
00:52:13.420 not
00:52:13.640 crazy
00:52:14.040 and
00:52:14.580 there's
00:52:14.760 just
00:52:14.900 no
00:52:15.220 situation
00:52:15.860 where
00:52:16.640 the
00:52:16.800 world
00:52:17.020 is
00:52:17.260 destroyed
00:52:17.720 well
00:52:18.080 then
00:52:18.240 you've
00:52:18.420 got
00:52:18.560 some
00:52:18.740 decisions
00:52:19.140 so
00:52:20.000 that's
00:52:20.220 a
00:52:20.360 perfectly
00:52:20.860 good
00:52:21.200 use
00:52:21.440 of
00:52:21.600 a
00:52:21.740 model
00:52:22.020 likewise
00:52:23.160 you
00:52:23.640 do
00:52:23.820 the
00:52:23.980 same
00:52:24.160 thing
00:52:24.360 on
00:52:24.520 the
00:52:24.700 low
00:52:25.120 side
00:52:25.460 you
00:52:26.120 try
00:52:26.600 every
00:52:26.900 variable
00:52:27.320 you
00:52:27.560 can
00:52:27.820 every
00:52:28.500 different
00:52:28.800 assumption
00:52:29.280 even
00:52:29.720 wild
00:52:30.200 ones
00:52:30.500 and
00:52:30.980 you
00:52:31.080 say
00:52:31.220 all
00:52:31.380 right
00:52:31.480 what's
00:52:31.740 the
00:52:31.920 best
00:52:33.100 that
00:52:33.380 this
00:52:33.560 could
00:52:33.740 be
00:52:33.960 if
00:52:34.880 everything
00:52:35.640 went
00:52:35.940 the way
00:52:36.220 we
00:52:36.400 wanted
00:52:36.660 to
00:52:36.800 what's
00:52:37.020 the
00:52:37.160 best
00:52:37.500 it
00:52:37.660 could
00:52:37.780 be
00:52:38.100 and
00:52:38.700 then
00:52:39.360 you
00:52:39.480 look
00:52:39.660 at it
00:52:39.860 and say
00:52:40.060 oh
00:52:40.520 the best
00:52:42.800 it could
00:52:43.100 be
00:52:43.420 under
00:52:44.540 every
00:52:44.880 scenario
00:52:45.420 it still
00:52:46.560 gets a
00:52:46.940 little
00:52:47.080 bit
00:52:47.260 too
00:52:47.440 warm
00:52:47.740 we
00:52:47.920 don't
00:52:48.080 know
00:52:48.200 how
00:52:48.340 long
00:52:48.620 but
00:52:48.800 it's
00:52:49.220 going
00:52:49.340 to
00:52:49.380 get
00:52:49.500 a
00:52:49.600 little
00:52:49.680 too
00:52:49.880 warm
00:52:50.140 so
00:52:51.340 I
00:52:51.920 think
00:52:52.100 the
00:52:52.260 climate
00:52:52.540 models
00:52:52.920 do
00:52:53.140 that
00:52:53.500 they
00:52:54.440 tell
00:52:55.920 you
00:52:56.100 that
00:52:56.360 somewhere
00:52:57.720 in this
00:52:58.180 gigantic
00:52:58.680 range
00:52:59.300 we
00:53:00.060 might
00:53:00.280 have
00:53:00.520 trouble
00:53:00.860 but
00:53:02.020 that's
00:53:02.220 about
00:53:02.400 all
00:53:02.540 they
00:53:02.660 can
00:53:02.780 do
00:53:03.000 they
00:53:04.480 can't
00:53:04.740 tell
00:53:04.880 you
00:53:04.960 the
00:53:05.100 economics
00:53:05.540 they
00:53:05.820 can't
00:53:06.060 tell
00:53:06.160 you
00:53:06.280 what
00:53:06.420 we'll
00:53:06.680 invent
00:53:07.580 between
00:53:08.000 now
00:53:08.280 and
00:53:08.420 then
00:53:08.640 they
00:53:09.220 can't
00:53:09.500 tell
00:53:09.640 you
00:53:09.740 how
00:53:09.860 many
00:53:10.040 pandemics
00:53:10.620 we'll
00:53:10.840 have
00:53:11.080 that
00:53:11.240 will
00:53:11.400 rearrange
00:53:11.940 society
00:53:12.560 they
00:53:13.180 can't
00:53:13.480 tell
00:53:13.640 you
00:53:13.800 if
00:53:13.940 we'll
00:53:14.160 all
00:53:14.260 be
00:53:14.420 cyborgs
00:53:15.040 in
00:53:15.180 40
00:53:15.460 years
00:53:19.880 soon
00:53:20.060 as
00:53:20.200 you
00:53:20.320 buy
00:53:20.580 into
00:53:20.860 the
00:53:21.180 illusion
00:53:21.720 that
00:53:22.700 that's
00:53:23.000 what
00:53:23.160 they're
00:53:23.340 for
00:53:23.700 they're
00:53:24.260 not
00:53:24.420 even
00:53:24.600 for
00:53:24.940 that
00:53:25.340 they're
00:53:26.380 not
00:53:26.520 even
00:53:26.700 built
00:53:26.960 for
00:53:27.380 that
00:53:27.600 purpose
00:53:28.040 it's
00:53:28.700 only
00:53:28.860 to
00:53:29.040 tell
00:53:29.200 you
00:53:29.340 this
00:53:29.560 big
00:53:30.560 range
00:53:31.120 of
00:53:31.320 possibility
00:53:32.120 and
00:53:33.560 then
00:53:33.980 you
00:53:34.140 look
00:53:34.320 at
00:53:34.460 the
00:53:34.720 virus
00:53:36.260 models
00:53:36.640 and
00:53:36.800 you
00:53:36.880 say
00:53:37.040 hey
00:53:37.240 but
00:53:37.440 Scott
00:53:37.740 these
00:53:38.700 virus
00:53:39.040 models
00:53:39.300 have
00:53:39.480 this
00:53:39.660 giant
00:53:39.960 range
00:53:40.380 of
00:53:40.500 possibilities
00:53:41.020 and
00:53:41.720 it
00:53:41.820 was
00:53:41.940 still
00:53:42.260 outside
00:53:42.960 the
00:53:43.180 range
00:53:43.620 to
00:53:44.400 which
00:53:44.580 I
00:53:44.720 say
00:53:45.020 well
00:53:46.100 that's
00:53:46.400 more
00:53:46.600 evidence
00:53:49.880 because
00:53:50.740 if
00:53:51.620 the
00:53:51.800 model
00:53:52.020 said
00:53:52.340 we're
00:53:52.580 only
00:53:52.880 you
00:53:53.220 know
00:53:53.320 the
00:53:53.480 low
00:53:53.720 end
00:53:53.960 would
00:53:54.120 be
00:53:54.260 like
00:53:54.580 100,000
00:53:55.600 at
00:53:55.760 one
00:53:55.940 point
00:53:56.240 then it
00:53:56.480 got
00:53:56.620 lowered
00:53:56.880 but
00:53:57.560 if
00:53:57.680 the
00:53:57.780 low
00:53:57.980 point
00:53:58.420 was
00:53:58.580 100,000
00:53:59.280 and
00:53:59.700 we
00:53:59.820 came
00:54:00.080 in
00:54:00.280 at
00:54:00.480 70,000
00:54:04.900 and
00:54:05.660 the
00:54:05.800 low
00:54:05.980 part
00:54:06.180 of
00:54:06.240 the
00:54:06.320 model
00:54:06.500 was
00:54:06.680 100,000
00:54:07.320 that
00:54:08.160 means
00:54:08.360 the
00:54:08.500 model
00:54:08.720 worked
00:54:09.160 that's
00:54:10.200 not
00:54:10.340 missing
00:54:10.660 because
00:54:11.760 that's
00:54:12.040 so
00:54:12.240 close
00:54:12.600 to
00:54:12.780 the
00:54:12.920 bottom
00:54:13.140 range
00:54:13.680 and
00:54:14.500 with
00:54:14.780 full
00:54:15.020 mitigation
00:54:15.500 that
00:54:15.960 you'd
00:54:16.160 say
00:54:16.340 yeah
00:54:16.980 that was
00:54:17.200 pretty
00:54:17.360 close
00:54:17.720 it
00:54:18.460 did
00:54:18.680 tell
00:54:18.920 us
00:54:19.260 that
00:54:20.040 under
00:54:20.240 these
00:54:20.480 assumptions
00:54:20.900 with
00:54:21.240 full
00:54:21.480 mitigation
00:54:21.960 we're
00:54:22.680 going
00:54:22.760 to
00:54:22.780 be
00:54:22.920 somewhere
00:54:23.240 in
00:54:23.440 this
00:54:23.680 50,000
00:54:25.380 60,000
00:54:26.120 100,000
00:54:26.760 range
00:54:27.260 and
00:54:28.020 you
00:54:28.180 would
00:54:28.320 make
00:54:28.520 different
00:54:28.900 decisions
00:54:29.380 if
00:54:29.700 you're
00:54:29.860 in
00:54:29.980 that
00:54:30.140 range
00:54:30.520 than
00:54:31.180 you
00:54:31.320 would
00:54:31.520 if
00:54:31.660 it
00:54:31.780 were
00:54:31.980 1 or
00:54:32.360 2
00:54:32.520 million
00:54:32.780 so
00:54:33.440 did
00:54:33.680 the
00:54:33.900 models
00:54:34.560 work
00:54:35.020 completely
00:54:36.100 the
00:54:37.440 models
00:54:37.840 completely
00:54:38.680 worked
00:54:39.280 for
00:54:40.060 what
00:54:40.320 models
00:54:40.740 can
00:54:41.120 do
00:54:41.420 what
00:54:42.820 models
00:54:43.220 did
00:54:43.500 not
00:54:43.760 do
00:54:44.040 is
00:54:44.720 tell
00:54:44.900 you
00:54:45.020 what
00:54:45.140 the
00:54:45.280 future
00:54:45.540 would
00:54:47.200 they
00:54:49.340 just
00:54:49.560 can't
00:54:49.820 do
00:54:49.940 that
00:54:50.260 and
00:54:51.040 as soon
00:54:51.500 as you
00:54:51.700 fool
00:54:52.000 yourself
00:54:52.380 into
00:54:52.620 thinking
00:54:52.960 that
00:54:53.220 they
00:54:53.380 can
00:54:53.540 do
00:54:53.700 that
00:54:53.980 that's
00:54:54.580 when
00:54:54.740 your
00:54:54.900 world
00:54:55.140 doesn't
00:54:55.420 make
00:54:55.600 sense
00:54:55.880 anymore
00:54:56.240 because
00:54:57.060 you
00:54:57.160 think
00:54:57.380 those
00:54:58.020 idiots
00:54:58.420 are
00:54:58.920 you
00:54:59.020 telling
00:54:59.180 me
00:54:59.300 they
00:54:59.460 closed
00:54:59.840 the
00:55:00.020 economy
00:55:00.420 and
00:55:00.740 their
00:55:01.480 models
00:55:01.860 were
00:55:02.120 wrong
00:55:02.500 no
00:55:03.580 that
00:55:03.760 never
00:55:04.000 happened
00:55:04.380 because
00:55:05.180 there's
00:55:05.360 no
00:55:05.480 such
00:55:05.700 thing
00:55:05.880 as
00:55:06.000 a
00:55:06.100 model
00:55:06.280 that's
00:55:06.500 right
00:55:06.800 you
00:55:07.720 can't
00:55:07.920 have
00:55:08.020 a
00:55:08.120 model
00:55:08.300 that's
00:55:08.480 wrong
00:55:08.860 if
00:55:09.520 there's
00:55:09.660 no
00:55:09.840 possibility
00:55:10.480 of it
00:55:10.800 being
00:55:10.940 right
00:55:11.260 and
00:55:11.960 there
00:55:12.080 is
00:55:12.200 no
00:55:12.340 possibility
00:55:12.880 because
00:55:13.280 nobody
00:55:13.640 can
00:55:13.840 see
00:55:13.960 the
00:55:14.120 future
00:55:14.420 all
00:55:16.620 right
00:55:16.840 we
00:55:21.160 ruined
00:55:21.560 our
00:55:21.800 world
00:55:22.160 economy
00:55:22.780 because
00:55:23.220 the
00:55:23.400 models
00:55:23.740 incorrect
00:55:24.700 completely
00:55:26.120 incorrect
00:55:26.680 so
00:55:27.200 everybody
00:55:27.540 who
00:55:27.840 thinks
00:55:28.120 that
00:55:28.320 the
00:55:28.500 models
00:55:29.080 are
00:55:29.980 why
00:55:30.260 we
00:55:30.460 closed
00:55:30.740 the
00:55:30.900 economy
00:55:31.300 has
00:55:32.080 not
00:55:32.300 listened
00:55:32.680 to
00:55:33.100 Dr.
00:55:33.680 Fauci
00:55:34.000 who
00:55:34.940 said
00:55:35.320 no
00:55:35.720 we
00:55:35.940 were
00:55:36.060 watching
00:55:36.420 what
00:55:36.620 was
00:55:36.780 happening
00:55:37.120 in
00:55:37.480 China
00:55:37.820 and
00:55:38.100 Italy
00:55:38.400 and
00:55:39.280 it
00:55:39.600 wouldn't
00:55:39.840 matter
00:55:40.100 what
00:55:40.380 the
00:55:40.580 model
00:55:40.880 said
00:55:41.260 if
00:55:42.100 you're
00:55:42.500 watching
00:55:42.880 China
00:55:44.100 just
00:55:44.440 get
00:55:44.640 decimated
00:55:45.240 and
00:55:45.520 Italy
00:55:45.940 get
00:55:46.220 decimated
00:55:46.720 and you
00:55:47.040 see
00:55:47.200 it's
00:55:47.320 coming
00:55:47.580 toward
00:55:47.840 you
00:55:48.100 Fauci
00:55:49.520 said
00:55:49.780 this
00:55:49.960 directly
00:55:50.400 he
00:55:51.280 said
00:55:51.540 no
00:55:51.860 we
00:55:52.040 didn't
00:55:52.280 need
00:55:52.880 the
00:55:53.040 models
00:55:53.380 for
00:55:53.620 that
00:55:53.980 you
00:55:55.420 could
00:55:55.620 tell
00:55:55.820 this
00:55:56.000 was
00:55:56.140 some
00:55:56.320 bad
00:55:56.620 stuff
00:55:57.060 no
00:55:57.960 model
00:55:58.260 required
00:55:58.760 the
00:56:00.720 models
00:56:01.080 are
00:56:01.220 mostly
00:56:01.500 to
00:56:01.720 communicate
00:56:02.160 with
00:56:02.400 the
00:56:02.540 public
00:56:02.920 really
00:56:03.360 that's
00:56:03.720 the
00:56:04.160 primary
00:56:04.480 thing
00:56:04.760 that
00:56:04.920 they
00:56:05.040 do
00:56:05.260 and
00:56:06.020 they
00:56:06.180 mislead
00:56:06.660 the
00:56:06.860 public
00:56:08.400 models
00:56:12.180 showed
00:56:12.500 that
00:56:12.680 hospitals
00:56:13.160 would
00:56:13.420 be
00:56:13.580 overwhelmed
00:56:14.160 and
00:56:16.760 again
00:56:17.300 are you
00:56:18.880 saying
00:56:19.260 those
00:56:19.680 models
00:56:20.060 were
00:56:20.340 wrong
00:56:20.860 because
00:56:21.820 they
00:56:22.100 did
00:56:22.300 not
00:56:22.540 predict
00:56:23.080 the
00:56:23.980 capacity
00:56:24.760 of the
00:56:25.020 hospitals
00:56:25.420 because
00:56:26.060 if you're
00:56:26.380 saying
00:56:26.560 that
00:56:26.840 again
00:56:27.140 you
00:56:27.340 don't
00:56:27.540 understand
00:56:27.920 what a
00:56:28.200 model
00:56:28.420 is
00:56:28.720 the
00:56:29.900 model
00:56:30.300 can't
00:56:30.760 tell
00:56:31.000 you
00:56:31.180 what
00:56:31.380 it
00:56:31.500 will
00:56:31.660 be
00:56:32.000 can't
00:56:32.880 do
00:56:33.020 that
00:56:33.340 it's
00:56:33.820 not
00:56:34.000 made
00:56:34.200 for
00:56:34.340 that
00:56:34.600 nobody
00:56:35.080 wanted
00:56:35.420 it
00:56:35.620 to
00:56:35.700 do
00:56:35.800 that
00:56:36.620 only
00:56:38.220 the
00:56:38.400 range
00:56:38.800 that's
00:56:39.340 it
00:56:39.580 and
00:56:41.120 I
00:56:41.240 think
00:56:41.400 we
00:56:41.580 were
00:56:41.780 within
00:56:42.080 the
00:56:42.260 range
00:56:42.540 in
00:56:42.780 my
00:56:42.940 opinion
00:56:43.220 why
00:56:45.220 do
00:56:45.320 you
00:56:45.420 leave
00:56:45.600 your
00:56:45.760 cork
00:56:46.140 board
00:56:46.480 blank
00:56:46.900 I
00:56:47.860 do
00:56:48.040 that
00:56:48.280 because
00:56:48.540 I
00:56:48.880 don't
00:56:49.020 like
00:56:49.300 a
00:56:49.680 lot
00:56:49.800 of
00:56:49.920 busy
00:56:50.200 stuff
00:56:50.580 behind
00:56:50.980 me
00:56:51.200 I
00:56:51.540 only
00:56:51.740 wanted
00:56:52.020 behind
00:56:52.340 me
00:56:52.520 things
00:56:52.820 that
00:56:53.080 I
00:56:53.880 wanted
00:56:54.140 to
00:56:54.300 be
00:56:58.720 so
00:56:58.820 it's
00:56:58.920 like
00:56:59.080 you
00:56:59.180 are
00:57:00.060 you
00:57:00.240 okay
00:57:00.600 my
00:57:01.620 my
00:57:02.800 my
00:57:04.540 surgery
00:57:04.940 to get
00:57:05.360 my
00:57:05.720 nasal
00:57:06.820 sinus
00:57:07.460 problem
00:57:07.880 fixed
00:57:08.340 was
00:57:09.560 postponed
00:57:10.540 with
00:57:10.920 everybody
00:57:11.220 else's
00:57:11.960 postponable
00:57:13.960 surgeries
00:57:14.460 so
00:57:14.820 I'm
00:57:15.180 actually
00:57:15.420 having
00:57:15.700 pretty
00:57:16.540 bad
00:57:16.940 breathing
00:57:17.580 problems
00:57:18.200 but
00:57:19.880 it's
00:57:20.420 my
00:57:21.140 oxygen
00:57:21.540 is
00:57:21.780 fine
00:57:21.980 I
00:57:22.320 test
00:57:22.540 my
00:57:23.060 oxygen
00:57:23.380 every
00:57:23.640 day
00:57:23.840 so
00:57:24.020 that's
00:57:24.180 fine
00:57:24.400 do
00:57:26.640 you
00:57:26.760 think
00:57:26.940 you
00:57:27.060 had
00:57:27.200 the
00:57:27.360 virus
00:57:27.660 in
00:57:27.900 January
00:57:28.340 I
00:57:30.600 thought
00:57:31.020 about
00:57:31.240 that
00:57:31.460 all
00:57:31.840 day
00:57:32.120 today
00:57:32.420 because
00:57:32.760 now
00:57:33.000 they
00:57:33.140 have
00:57:33.300 those
00:57:33.580 home
00:57:33.860 tests
00:57:34.360 and
00:57:35.040 if
00:57:35.180 you
00:57:35.300 can
00:57:35.460 talk
00:57:35.780 your
00:57:35.960 doctor
00:57:36.380 into
00:57:37.520 there's
00:57:38.040 some
00:57:38.200 reason
00:57:38.460 you
00:57:38.640 should
00:57:38.760 get
00:57:38.920 tested
00:57:39.260 apparently
00:57:39.680 you
00:57:39.920 can
00:57:40.040 do
00:57:40.220 it
00:57:40.380 but
00:57:40.620 it
00:57:40.760 would
00:57:41.120 have
00:57:41.280 to
00:57:41.400 be
00:57:41.520 your
00:57:41.640 doctor
00:57:41.940 ordering
00:57:42.360 the
00:57:42.560 test
00:57:42.840 and
00:57:43.640 I
00:57:43.760 was
00:57:43.880 wondering
00:57:44.180 if
00:57:44.400 I
00:57:44.500 have
00:57:44.620 a
00:57:44.760 good
00:57:44.940 enough
00:57:45.220 reason
00:57:45.600 and
00:57:46.320 I
00:57:46.440 think
00:57:46.720 that
00:57:47.020 given
00:57:47.260 the
00:57:47.500 shortage
00:57:47.920 of
00:57:48.140 the
00:57:48.260 tests
00:57:48.580 the
00:57:49.180 answer
00:57:49.420 is
00:57:49.600 no
00:57:49.940 because
00:57:50.520 there
00:57:50.840 are
00:57:50.940 people
00:57:51.220 who
00:57:51.360 need
00:57:51.500 it
00:57:51.580 more
00:57:51.720 than
00:57:51.860 I
00:57:52.020 do
00:57:52.120 at
00:57:52.260 this
00:57:52.400 point
00:57:52.600 but
00:57:53.460 if
00:57:54.480 there
00:57:54.660 were
00:57:54.800 enough
00:57:55.040 tests
00:57:55.520 I
00:57:56.460 would
00:57:56.640 definitely
00:57:57.000 take
00:57:57.320 one
00:57:57.480 now
00:57:57.760 because
00:57:58.360 there's
00:57:59.680 so many
00:58:00.080 people
00:58:00.360 who had
00:58:00.620 the same
00:58:01.040 experience
00:58:01.520 in
00:58:01.720 January
00:58:02.120 and
00:58:02.820 they
00:58:02.980 say
00:58:03.240 I
00:58:03.840 don't
00:58:04.060 know
00:58:04.240 what
00:58:04.440 I
00:58:04.600 had
00:58:05.020 but
00:58:06.000 I've
00:58:06.200 never
00:58:06.360 had
00:58:06.520 anything
00:58:06.720 like
00:58:06.960 that
00:58:07.240 before
00:58:07.620 so
00:58:08.640 that
00:58:08.780 was
00:58:08.920 my
00:58:09.120 experience
00:58:09.620 whatever
00:58:10.560 basically
00:58:11.540 took
00:58:11.960 me
00:58:12.140 out
00:58:12.380 for
00:58:12.620 almost
00:58:12.860 the
00:58:13.040 entire
00:58:13.300 month
00:58:13.660 of
00:58:13.840 January
00:58:14.340 I
00:58:15.120 mean
00:58:15.220 I
00:58:15.420 was
00:58:15.600 in
00:58:15.760 bad
00:58:20.940 and
00:58:21.520 I
00:58:23.460 just
00:58:23.720 thought
00:58:24.080 it's
00:58:24.960 cold
00:58:26.020 or
00:58:26.220 allergies
00:58:26.600 or
00:58:26.880 something
00:58:27.080 I
00:58:27.220 didn't
00:58:27.360 really
00:58:27.560 know
00:58:27.700 what
00:58:27.780 it
00:58:27.860 was
00:58:28.100 it
00:58:28.200 wasn't
00:58:28.520 and
00:58:29.460 I
00:58:29.840 also
00:58:30.040 thought
00:58:30.360 I
00:58:30.620 was
00:58:30.720 taking
00:58:30.920 some
00:58:31.180 meds
00:58:31.440 for
00:58:31.580 my
00:58:31.820 sinus
00:58:32.220 thing
00:58:32.480 and
00:58:33.200 I
00:58:33.320 thought
00:58:33.560 I
00:58:33.740 had
00:58:34.060 an
00:58:34.240 allergic
00:58:34.620 reaction
00:58:35.200 because
00:58:36.060 there

01:00:05.280 it
01:00:05.540 I
01:00:06.460 doubt
01:00:06.680 it

01:00:08.120 actually
01:00:08.500 had
01:00:08.780 it

01:00:12.400 they had
01:00:12.760 it
01:00:12.900 and the
01:00:13.420 answer
01:00:13.640 was
01:00:13.880 something like
01:00:14.620 90%
01:00:15.640 don't have
01:00:16.180 it
