00:00:00.480 Recently, our company's softball team lost the big game by one run.
00:00:04.800 Then Dale tried to console us with the quote,
00:00:07.200 winning isn't everything.
00:00:09.060 Well, Dale and I are very different.
00:00:12.740 I get early payout from Bet365.

00:02:20.900 All right.
00:02:21.180 We all need sips. 0.84
00:02:23.320 Let's go.
00:02:24.960 But before we do that, should we prepare?
00:02:28.120 Yes, we should.
00:02:29.220 Because the most exciting part of the day is about to happen now.
00:02:33.420 It's called the simultaneous sip.
00:02:35.600 And by the way, Omar, I haven't forgotten about you.
00:02:38.560 I am going to get to that.
00:02:40.720 All you need is a cup or mug or a glass
00:02:44.120 A tank or chalice or stein
00:02:45.200 A canteen jug or flask
00:02:46.420 A vessel of any kind
00:02:48.080 Fill it with your favorite liquid
00:02:50.260 I like coffee
00:02:51.200 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure
00:02:54.680 The dopamine hit of the day
00:02:57.180 The thing that makes everything better
00:02:59.700 Except the air quality
00:03:01.780 It's called the simultaneous sip
00:03:03.680 And it happens now
00:03:05.000 I love when people in the chat are like, someone just said, who's Omar? And it just goes so far
00:03:20.180 back. Good morning again. My name is Erica and this is Marcella and Owen and we are the home
00:03:27.680 team. We are, um, the hosts of the Scott Adams school, and we're here every day, Monday through
00:03:35.140 Friday at this time. So we can all have a simultaneous sip together. We could talk about
00:03:40.980 some news, current events, and whenever we can, we love to do lessons that Scott has taught us
00:03:46.580 along the way. And don't forget all of Scott's YouTube videos are still on YouTube. And if you
00:03:52.520 want to come over to Locals and chat with us on the Locals platform. There's a ton of extra
00:03:59.700 content over there, and that is scottadams.locals.com. We'd love to see you there. I think it's $7 a
00:04:07.580 month, or if you purchase the year for $70, Scott gave you two months for free. Okay, let's get
00:04:16.240 going. So we do have some things to cover today. And I'm hoping we have a whiteboard for you too.
00:04:23.780 But I just wanted to show you the coverage from Lindsey Graham's funeral that I found
00:04:31.200 most compelling. So here it is.
00:04:46.240 I love how he puts it in his mouth.
00:05:07.380 I don't know why.
00:05:10.340 He's like, hey, JD, have a Tic Tac.
00:05:14.000 See if Basant wants one.
00:05:16.240 Bessette, I didn't want to have to tell you, but take a Tic-Tac.
00:05:23.860 Trump, he's like the godfather there.
00:05:25.760 He's like, ah, yes, we're all minty fresh.
00:05:28.540 Were those actually Tic-Tacs?
00:05:30.040 Yes.
00:05:31.180 Okay.
00:05:32.140 What do you think they were?
00:05:33.500 I don't know.
00:05:34.100 When he zoomed in on it, I wasn't sure if I saw the Tic-Tac shape, but maybe it was. 0.92
00:05:39.820 All right, Owen, start our next conspiracy.
00:05:41.540 Here's my coffee.
00:05:43.100 Oh, my gosh.
00:05:44.480 Don't you love that?
00:05:46.240 So you guys, doesn't that remind you of like when you're in church or in an important meeting
00:05:50.800 or in class or wherever you are and like someone does something that makes you laugh?
00:05:55.800 And did anyone watch Seinfeld and think about the Pez dispenser?
00:06:00.340 Because that's what I immediately thought about.
00:06:02.620 So I love that.
00:06:03.580 All right.
00:06:03.840 Jean said, I saw the box.
00:06:05.440 Oh, and it was Tic Tacs.
00:06:06.580 Oh, I saw the box.
00:06:07.680 It's just usually there, you know, they have that little UFO sort of shape.
00:06:11.320 And I wasn't sure if I saw that or something else, but I may just be waking up.
00:06:18.060 Marcella, we both went.
00:06:20.360 They look like TikTok.
00:06:22.300 UFO.
00:06:23.300 I might be just too tired this morning.
00:06:25.300 It's okay.
00:06:26.220 UFO?
00:06:27.580 What I was going to say is I think he was keeping them awake because I'm sorry,
00:06:33.000 Lindsey Graham, but it was kind of hard to stay awake when I was watching it.
00:06:38.260 while during lunchtime at work i may have fallen asleep well it's very you know so yes the pez was
00:06:47.460 on elaine's leg in seinfeld during the piano concert when jerry took out the pez dispenser
00:06:53.220 and stuck it on her leg and the junior mint was when kramer launched a junior mint into the
00:07:00.340 surgery he was watching yes yes so we had two minty references from seinfeld if you've never
00:07:05.300 watched it watch it um okay so we wanted to first talk about because owen has to go i was like let's
00:07:14.260 do some um save america act congress going on vacation uh you know which i can't believe that
00:07:22.980 they have the nerve to go on vacation um but here's a little clip of john cornyn i mean he
00:07:29.460 you know what does he care he's done right like thank god ken paxton won in texas but you know
00:07:34.740 he's all hopped up and ready to go on vacation here's a quick look at him i don't understand
00:07:40.260 the rationale i think it's basically we're we're over promising and we're not going to be able to
00:07:45.540 deliver on that promise because we don't have the votes to pass it no matter how long we stay and
00:07:51.060 we're not gonna we're not gonna change the filibuster so uh but somehow the president's
00:07:57.140 convinced that if he presses hard enough that we will we'll come around and uh but i just don't
00:08:04.500 think that's likely to happen is he putting thune in an impossible position here well i think yeah
00:08:09.940 it's well i wouldn't say impossible they'll figure it out but it's a very difficult position
00:08:16.580 so that's one perspective and um i love you know people are blasting these these uh congress people
00:08:25.220 that want to go on vacation like scott pressler is doing a great job saying like here's a list
00:08:29.700 of everybody that's up for reelection. And here are the ones that are going on vacation and not
00:08:35.220 sticking around, which is such a great play because if they're not working for you, right,
00:08:39.140 then make them work for you. I hear you, Dax. I hear you. So we've been dying for a Maria Bartiroma
00:08:46.460 hit. So here's the opposite of John Cornyn. 11 of your colleagues are also calling for the
00:08:53.580 recess to be canceled. Do you think the Senate will stay in Washington? And do you expect the
00:08:58.340 SAVE AMERICA ACT TO GET OVER
00:08:59.820 THE FINISH LINE?
00:09:00.780 WELL, I HAVE CONTINUED THOSE
00:09:02.940 CONVERSATIONS AND I'M SO
00:09:05.420 EXCITED THAT SINCE I MADE THAT
00:09:07.380 STATEMENT THAT WE SHOULD STAY
00:09:08.760 IN WASHINGTON, SO MANY OF MY
00:09:10.380 COLLEAGUES HAVE STOOD UP AND
00:09:11.580 SAID THEY WILL NOT AGREE OR
00:09:13.340 CONSENT TO A RECESS UNLESS WE
00:09:14.940 GET THE SAVE AMERICA ACT BACK
00:09:16.560 TO THE FLOOR.
00:09:17.480 I MEAN, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
00:09:19.100 WANT A VOTE.
00:09:19.900 I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY PEOPLE
00:09:21.680 IN FLORIDA, NO MATTER WHERE I
00:09:23.440 GO, WANT THE SENATE TO VOTE ON
00:09:26.440 THIS.
00:09:26.840 And so, you know, we're not going to agree to a recess.
00:09:30.980 We're going to push forward.
00:09:32.700 I will continue to have discussions with leadership on why this is so important.
00:09:38.040 Again, like I told you when we started this conversation this morning, Maria,
00:09:41.380 my goal here in the Senate is to restore trust by the people in their government,
00:09:46.540 that their government is working with them, for them,
00:09:49.320 with their best interests in mind every day.
00:09:52.500 And we've got to get this vote going.
00:09:54.100 Who is against, who can you tell us is actually against having citizenship proof to vote?
00:10:00.280 What's the problem with showing that you're a citizen?
00:10:03.140 I think there's no problem. I don't think there should be a debate.
00:10:05.740 I stood on the floor on Monday night and tried to pass it by unanimous consent.
00:10:10.500 And a Democrat showed up and objected. I dared them to, and they did.
00:10:15.440 But here it is. To know who is objecting, we need the vote.
00:10:19.680 The American people are owed that.
00:10:24.100 okay so by the way name names like what's the problem that was ashley moody uh representative
00:10:31.200 from florida and thank you eric daughtry for that clip and thank you nick sorter for the other one
00:10:37.180 on cornyn um yeah so owen i'm gonna come to you first you know this is just so frustrating
00:10:44.320 thune is frustrating um what's the good reason to not do this do we know
00:10:50.660 well i think um i again my suspicion is and this goes back to how scott would tell us like you know
00:10:59.160 on an individual level we're presumed innocent but when it's the government you need to presume
00:11:03.260 they're guilty until they prove they're innocent and i think so i have to assume that they have
00:11:08.780 nefarious purposes here they have something that they want to prevent the real election integrity
00:11:15.180 from being put in place.
00:11:17.440 And the most charitable thing that I can speculate
00:11:20.680 is that people who are up for reelection in a swing state
00:11:23.780 and they're worried about their chances,
00:11:26.080 they might be the ones that would say,
00:11:28.400 well, I don't want to do that
00:11:29.220 because then the Democrats are like, you know,
00:11:31.140 I don't know, someone like Susan Collins,
00:11:32.720 you know, that sort of situation
00:11:34.160 where it's like if they're on the edge,
00:11:35.980 they might say, well, I don't want to do this.
00:11:38.280 That would be the most challenging
00:11:39.660 or most charitable way of putting it.
00:11:42.320 But I think the other side, of course,
00:11:43.540 is that they've been benefiting from not having those things in place
00:11:47.040 and they don't want that to end.
00:11:48.140 They want to have their ability to rig elections
00:11:50.040 and they don't want anything to interfere with that.
00:11:54.400 Let's assume for the moment that there is election cheating
00:11:57.740 on a widespread basis, which of course would certainly be possible
00:12:01.160 given our current system, then it's very likely that both sides
00:12:05.460 have been taking advantage of this for a long time.
00:12:07.980 And they probably would prefer that that system stays in place
00:12:11.460 because that's what got them in office.
00:12:13.540 right all right so marcella what is so with the filibuster the talking filibuster
00:12:22.980 i remember when um oh my god what was his name harry reed was the one that took it away is that
00:12:29.780 who it was harry reed i i think back in the day oh he was a mess also but what so what's the
00:12:35.860 what's the downside of the talking filibuster if you know it is it that like when democrats get
00:12:41.540 power like they're going to use it against us like i'm just not sure i understand what the
00:12:47.160 filibuster problem is and i'm totally putting you on the spot right now about it but they could
00:12:51.280 still do the talking filibuster but it's up to tune to do it um so i don't know why they're not
00:12:58.380 doing it but they can do it that means that if there is a filibuster in place somebody has to
00:13:04.720 be there talking forever and ever and ever so they can still do it okay point out about what's
00:13:12.180 not you know the dog not barking like people like cornyn you know they could easily take that same
00:13:17.220 opportunity to tell reporters like i'm doing everything i can i want to vote for it i'm trying
00:13:21.160 to convince people to change their vote like and they can say things like that interview with maria
00:13:26.960 barna roma like you know we should be passing this is a common sense thing we just you know
00:13:31.580 we don't have the votes yet but we're working on it or i'm talking to people and i'm as frustrated
00:13:37.020 as you are or whatever but they're not saying any of that like food isn't saying that corn is not
00:13:41.740 saying that so i have to assume they're against it senator mike lee had uh talked about how he
00:13:48.940 would want to to bring in the the talking filibuster why because if you're going to
00:13:54.140 filibuster a law like this then it's going to be harder for you to do it as a talk of
00:14:00.220 filibuster so that's why he wanted to push that but he tune didn't push it so
00:14:06.760 it's up to that's why there's a lot of pressure on tuned because the idea is
00:14:12.520 why is he not cooperating with something that should be everybody should be for
00:14:20.380 right so that yeah why yeah I have an idea though as a teacher as a previous
00:14:27.760 teacher where you're in recess, I say that everybody that wants to vote for the Save America
00:14:33.520 Act can go to vacation. Everybody that does not stays. That'll show you who's into it. No vacation
00:14:40.720 for you if you don't want to vote for Americans. I mean, they make a stupid amount of money, 1.00
00:14:46.400 right? They get all these kickbacks. And so stay for the first week. See if you can iron it out in 1.00
00:14:54.400 the first week, you still get the rest of the time off. I mean, if that's what you're signed
00:14:58.240 up for, but it's, it's, these are people we would never hire at our businesses because their,
00:15:05.800 their focus is so wrong as someone who's owned multiple businesses. I can't imagine
00:15:10.760 hiring someone with that mindset. It's terrible. Um, all right. So I'm going to move on. I'm going
00:15:17.940 to, I'm going to see how fast we can get through some of this. Cause I want Marcella at least to 0.55
00:15:22.960 see the Trump, I mean the Trump, the Scott whiteboard, if possible. Okay. So yes, right now
00:15:30.040 we have Fauci. I know some of you are probably like, what am I missing? What is happening?
00:15:37.500 I can tell you, here's what Fauci is saying.
00:15:42.720 Therefore, although it pains me to do so because of the respect I have for the legislative branch
00:15:51.260 of government and my decades-long record of cooperating with Congress, under the advice
00:15:59.240 of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain
00:16:06.620 from answering your questions. Thank you. So that's been his response thus far. I can't stand
00:16:18.060 listening to his voice either, Goldie. And just remember, if he's talking, he's lying.
00:16:22.720 It's something for his own personal gain of function. And so the only exciting thing so far
00:16:29.540 I saw, and I just pulled it right before we came live, is this moment of Rand Paul
00:16:36.380 talking to Fauci's attorney. I like this clip. Marcella, you might just love this,
00:16:42.600 And you'll comment after this clip first.
00:16:46.920 You're not recognized.
00:16:48.740 You're not recognized.
00:16:50.220 If you are unruly, you will be removed from the proceeding.
00:16:53.800 You are not recognized.
00:16:56.000 And you are not recognized, sir.
00:16:58.760 Sir, you are not recognized.
00:17:01.180 You are not recognized.
00:17:03.080 Security, we'll hold off.
00:17:08.440 But you will respect these proceedings.
00:17:10.380 you were told not to sit at the table you insist on sitting at the table and we told you you would
00:17:16.020 not be recognized you are not invited here for testimony sir you are being disruptive would you
00:17:24.160 behave this way in a courtroom no because the judge would put you in jail i can't do that today
00:17:29.300 but i can have you escorted from the premises so i would say sir sit quietly and don't say another
00:17:34.100 word i said sit quietly you are not recognized another word and you're gone
00:17:39.540 so mr chairman i'd like to hear uh what the the attorney has to say he is not recognized by the
00:17:51.780 committee or the chair if he speaks again he will be removed from the room this testimony
00:17:57.240 is from anthony fauci this is not a game with his lawyers he can advise his lawyers can give
00:18:03.740 him advice. He's got a half dozen here. They're all allowed to talk to him. All right. But the
00:18:09.980 attorneys are not recognized. In fact, the attorney was told not to sit at the table and he's not
00:18:15.380 obeying that recommendation. There's a row behind you, sir. That's where you were told to sit and
00:18:19.580 you're not. And now you're disrupting the proceedings. And so look, this is the way
00:18:24.320 Anthony Fauci wants to be remembered for a lawyer, not listening to the rules. That's the way you
00:18:29.180 want to be remembered and that's what you're going to do you are not recognized sir
00:18:33.120 uh security please remove him from the room 0.98
00:18:37.200 what an utter douche the whole time he couldn't shut his mouth it's like shut your mouth all 0.96
00:18:52.840 marcella go ahead i just had to say that i am for senator rampaul kicking him out um i would have 0.98
00:19:00.200 never let him sit there but i guess somebody did allow him to sit there before the proceeding
00:19:05.960 started what i don't what i think about when i think of scott and what he would tell us
00:19:12.280 i i think that the visuals are there on both sides on the two movies right the movie of us
00:19:18.760 like let's kick out these people they're corrupt and then the movie on msn now or cnn would be like
00:19:26.880 look at a senator paul kicking out his lawyer out of there because he wants to incriminate this
00:19:34.780 innocent man so there will always be two movies um and this just kind of serves to that that's why
00:19:41.140 the the show feels like a like a like a movie show but in regards to what Fauci did um we'll
00:19:48.240 see he's going to and I think Rand Paul if he plays 40 chess I think the main reason he did
00:19:55.020 this he knew probably that they would take the fifth is to see and test the pardon yeah um
00:20:03.660 yeah oh sorry my mic's weird wait where's my mic going um owen i mean like a child that man could
00:20:13.080 not shut his mouth that attorney um someone had a good question i think it was steven over here
00:20:18.560 said so does he still have to pay him the hourly rate marcella if he got booted out
00:20:23.040 yeah he still gets paid i know it's just kidding okay he's making lots of money but uh i i didn't
00:20:31.800 catch his name so I don't know but he besides that lawyer so you guys don't feel bad in the
00:20:36.820 left that's watching right now maybe you're on the left don't feel bad there were other 12 lawyers
00:20:41.780 behind him yes that was just one of many one of many oh and I love that moment I love throwing 0.99
00:20:49.300 his ass out of there what do you think well the whole thing is a is a circus show you know and I 0.99
00:20:55.700 I, you know, I do applaud Rand Paul for doing it. I think he deserves to be put on the hot seat and at least put in position where he has to plead the fifth. 0.99
00:21:05.980 I think it was worth doing even just for that, just so people, you know, we can at least have it sort of on record that he was unwilling to answer these questions, that he's thinking that something he says might incriminate him.
00:21:17.800 um and you know maybe we will see a test against the pardon maybe we won't i don't know but um i
00:21:24.980 would kind of guess that the pardon will be allowed to stick even if it was an auto pen
00:21:29.920 pardon i don't know how that would uh be overturned unless they had like definitive proof that biden
00:21:36.260 did never you know approve it which i don't know how you can prove a negative like that so
00:21:40.160 um but i you know i i do think it was still worth putting him on the hot seat just to
00:21:46.100 And essentially, you know, put him through this cycle that we've been seeing in the press where all these stories are coming back and all the diary files are out and people are seeing what a despicable person this was.
00:21:59.840 And so even if we can't have him face legal consequences, at least he can have the social consequences and the political consequences of ruining his reputation and having this the truth exposed of what really went on and what he was really thinking and why he did all this horrible things.
00:22:19.300 And so even if we can't get him legally because of this pardon, I still think we should give him whatever punishment we can through the process.
00:22:26.440 So I'm a fan.
00:22:28.200 Yeah, me too.
00:22:28.900 i agree like what however we can i don't even want to say mock that's too nice but shame him
00:22:35.700 on behalf of all the injured dead and ruined lives i mean shame the bejesus out of this man because 0.87
00:22:43.380 he's disgusting and and again i want to say and everybody that played a part in it with him that 0.89
00:22:48.980 went along with it that gave him you know pre-written questions jake tapper all of you people 0.97
00:22:56.340 that worshiped this man. You guys have no shame. I swear to God. It is so disgusting. There's,
00:23:04.620 I mean, it's all over the news now. So like everything you look at, there's all these clips
00:23:09.560 of, you know, like reliving what happened and who was in on it and how they just put this man up on
00:23:15.240 a pedestal. And, and, you know, that remember when they were going through the city in DC and
00:23:21.520 he was going around with like Mariel Bowser and they were knocking on black people's doors to be
00:23:25.900 like, hey, look, here's your black mayor and she's telling you to get vaccinated. And all the black 1.00
00:23:32.080 families they were going to were like, hell no, we're not getting vaccinated. And then Fauci's 0.96
00:23:38.340 there like, yeah, you know, and the Republicans are going to make this political. And I'm like,
00:23:42.460 how dare you? You know, like people have autonomy over their own body and you can't force people to
00:23:49.940 take a drug. You know, they made it as difficult as possible by, you know, threatening your jobs,
00:23:55.380 your livelihood, social, what do you call it? Like when your social circles out you and they're
00:24:03.740 just like, we don't want to be with you anymore. And they ban you from society. I mean, it was
00:24:07.060 pretty fricking disgusting. Here's one clip. I just pulled one so we can see what Rand is saying 0.94
00:24:14.240 in general here. But we'll have, you know, we'll have the highlights tomorrow, but let's take a
00:24:18.620 admit that the risk of this dangerous research exceeded any possible benefits ask forgiveness
00:24:25.680 and pledge to help our government devise safeguards so a man-made epidemic never happens
00:24:31.120 again instead of an apology you have for years avoided responsibility regarding the lockdowns
00:24:38.800 you argue that you did not personally issue every lockdown order close every school or impose every
00:24:43.860 mandate. But officials across the country invoked your authority to justify these decisions. And you
00:24:51.220 presented your recommendations not as judgments open to debate, but as dictates of science itself.
00:24:57.900 Your own words demonstrate that you understood the influence you exercised. On March 14, 2020,
00:25:04.440 you wrote that the task force recommendations were driven by me, yourself, Deb, and CDC. The
00:25:12.060 The next day, you wrote that you had convinced Mayor Bill de Blasio to close the New York City schools, so you were involved.
00:25:19.860 That same night, Governor Gavin Newsom's chief of staff told you that the governor had decided to close California schools, bars, and restaurants after watching you on television.
00:25:30.240 Presidents, governors, mayors, school boards, corporations, and Congress all bear responsibility for the decisions they made.
00:25:37.000 The COVID lockdown, however, could never have been inflicted without you aiding and
00:25:41.960 abetting the crime.
00:25:43.760 Children lost years of education.
00:25:46.400 Small businesses built over a lifetime disappeared.
00:25:50.960 Patients delayed cancer screenings and other medical care.
00:25:54.300 Families were separated from dying relatives.
00:25:56.900 Workers were ordered to accept a medical procedure or lose their jobs.
00:26:00.940 Worship assembly, employment, education, and travel were restricted in the name of science.
00:26:05.880 While you did not impose every restriction, you used your public authority to justify them.
00:26:16.000 Can we discuss the very attractive woman behind him?
00:26:19.880 Oh, my God, she's gorgeous. 0.99
00:26:21.960 That's a Rand Paul staffer. 0.72
00:26:23.960 You go, girl.
00:26:26.460 I was like, oh, my God, she is so stunning.
00:26:28.740 Um, okay. Oh, and so that just gives us, you know, the, why he's there and why we should
00:26:36.820 loathe that man. Um, I just think it, my takeaway from the diary stuff is just like,
00:26:43.100 narcissism isn't an adequate word to describe Fauci. Like they, they, it should be like
00:26:49.660 renamed as like Fauci or something. Like he seems more narcissistic than narcissists was
00:26:56.880 that it was based on like the myth like he's beyond that like he just he thinks he's the
00:27:03.220 center of the universe and it just loves his own image and like nothing else matters and he's just
00:27:10.660 completely disgusting person and um you know i think his fall in at least in the eyes of the 0.62
00:27:18.680 public is very well deserved and um you know i it's disgusting to see the people who are coming 0.80
00:27:24.860 to defend him like i posted a story about wikipedia editing something out that was one of
00:27:30.580 the things that was called out against him and you know that people are noticing that like the the
00:27:36.780 far left disgusting people are coming out of the woodwork to try to defend him and um it's just i
00:27:43.620 i don't know i wish we could put this guy in prison i don't know that we can but um i'm just
00:27:49.000 glad that he's receiving some of the shame and that a lot of these things are finally coming out
00:27:52.320 But I applaud Tulsi Gabbard for bringing a lot of this information out because she's the one that declassified a lot of these things.
00:27:59.040 And I think it's just useful because I do think we need to learn how not to do this again and to make sure we don't make this mistake again.
00:28:07.520 Because there is going to be another pandemic. And if the Republican is in office, they're going to maybe try and do the same thing again to try and get them out or to try and create as much chaos and disruption.
00:28:17.460 And I think in my mind, that was a lot of what was going on is it was political.
00:28:21.440 It was they were, you know, you remember on CNN and all these other places, they had the live death count.
00:28:27.400 Twenty four hours. It was disgusting. We've never had anything like that. 0.54
00:28:31.140 And just the biggest psyop in history. And I think we need to not forget what happened because this is going to come up again.
00:28:40.360 There is going to be another pandemic like this. And they're going to try and put all these things in place again.
00:28:47.100 and we need to make sure we don't go down that same path um oh that's a good question did deborah
00:28:52.940 burks get a pardon i don't believe so but i'm not sure yeah i don't know we'll look into that
00:28:59.180 um are people still coming out now trying to defend him is that what you're saying you saw
00:29:05.660 well the the story i posted was about there was i forget that what the detail was but it was some
00:29:11.100 some part of one of the things that Fauci had been involved with that Wikipedia just said,
00:29:17.080 you know what, this isn't an important detail from this page. We're just going to delete this.
00:29:20.620 And, you know, it just so happened to happen right now, you know, years later, nothing changed.
00:29:26.000 Like, why would they even be looking at that page? But I think it's because it probably was
00:29:30.060 mentioned in the diaries and they were like, oh, you know what, this doesn't need to be here. Let's
00:29:33.960 just get rid of that. And so they were like editing Wikipedia to try and take away the facts
00:29:40.800 that are now against Fauci. Okay. Yeah. And then let's not forget all of the times in these
00:29:49.060 diaries and the emails they found where Fauci is telling everyone, immediately delete this,
00:29:55.120 get rid of these papers, which is illegal. You guys, listen, if you're ever faced with something,
00:30:04.480 not even to this magnitude, but whenever you're faced with something, just try to... How Scott
00:30:10.160 would have like the 48 hour rule, like, you know, just give yourself some extra time to think about
00:30:15.840 things rationally. Say, if I take the fear out of this and I just look at, you know, what I'm being
00:30:21.380 told, does it make sense? Does it align? Do I feel like the cost risk is worth it? Do I trust the
00:30:28.880 people that are telling me, can I do a little bit of research on my own? Just try to do that
00:30:34.480 sometimes because we're so used to everything being fed to us so fast, so fast, so fast. You
00:30:40.120 know, now, now it's like with AI, we can get things faster, faster, faster. But when it comes
00:30:44.620 to you and making a really important decision, slow down, just please slow down. Okay. Because
00:30:50.840 I could tell you story after story of people that were very, very close to me and my family who were
00:30:58.120 deadly impacted by Fauci's decisions. Marcella, go ahead, Owen. Thank you, Owen. We'll see you
00:31:08.140 tomorrow. See you. So Marcella, I, you know, I agree with Owen. I wish there was a way that
00:31:15.840 we knew we could put him in jail, but I did like how Rand Paul laid that out about all the things
00:31:22.780 he was doing. Um, I just have to say that, that he needs to, he still can face contempt for not
00:31:33.040 answering questions. Um, so I, I don't know what Senator Rand Paul is going to do. Um, but he could
00:31:42.460 still do a lot of things. So the, the issue is the part, and they're going to have to look at it
00:31:47.380 because they're going to have to take this to court, which is how we got the original decision
00:31:53.180 back in 1896. So the question would be, can, so technically he's not supposed to use the fifth,
00:32:01.520 can he use the fifth when he already has this pardon, how, what the scope of the pardon is,
00:32:09.640 his attorneys can argue he had a fear of perjury, but I don't know if perjury was something
00:32:17.260 that you can put together because technically the way that the Supreme Court indicated that
00:32:26.260 this would happen is that, okay, so you give a pardon. You can't incriminate yourself anymore
00:32:33.700 because you have a pass from this time to this time. So you're supposed to answer the questions
00:32:39.260 with truth. So now he's saying, I can't answer my questions with truth. So therefore I have to
00:32:47.180 take the fifth. We'll see. I mean, there was even Rand Paul said to him, are you sitting with a
00:32:55.440 folder in front of you? And he took the fifth. So he won't even answer like, yes, there's a folder
00:33:00.240 in front of me on the table. So this is the route he's going, which I just think is a bigger slap
00:33:05.500 in the face. It's just going to make us more angry. There's never accountability. So let's,
00:33:12.220 let's, you know what, let's give it the 48 hour rule, even the 24 hour rule. Let's just see what
00:33:17.440 happens as the day goes on, how things parse out. Um, all right. So Marcella, I know I only have you
00:33:24.260 for a limited time, so I want to get right to Scott's whiteboard and we might have a second
00:33:29.120 to talk about it with you still here. And if not, that's okay. Um, you guys let's buckle up for,
00:33:35.200 I think it's just about 12 minutes. And let's get a quick whiteboard lesson from Scott
00:33:42.340 talking about Trump's persuasion. Let's go. All right. If you remember in 2016, I became,
00:33:49.800 let's say, known within the political commentary world for my comments about Trump and persuasion.
00:33:57.280 And here's something I missed. And once it hit me, I thought, oh, my God,
00:34:03.720 Trump did his Rosie O'Donnell thing again.
00:34:06.760 Remember in 2016, he did the debate where he was challenged about his actions with women
00:34:13.820 or what he said about women.
00:34:15.620 And he said, only Rosie O'Donnell.
00:34:17.800 And many of us said, my God, that's the moment.
00:34:20.980 That's when everything changed.
00:34:23.140 That's when you realize that he was too strong to be taken down by weak attacks and that
00:34:30.020 he's gone someplace.
00:34:30.800 But he had that moment in this last debate, but it was a little bit overshadowed by the fact that Biden fell apart.
00:34:39.320 So Biden's collapse was the big story, which diverted even me from noting that he created a masterpiece, a masterpiece.
00:34:48.780 Now, I could argue that his entire debate was a masterpiece of persuasion, if you allow me that his fact checking was the usual.
00:34:57.980 right but in terms of the energy the leadership the you know the mental acuity
00:35:04.360 the ability to move energy around even the wise way he avoided questions he's criticized for
00:35:12.060 avoiding questions but he did it wisely like he just moved the conversation to where he would he
00:35:17.420 had a strength all of those things are a plus right now i criticized him and nitpicked him
00:35:23.360 over some of the arguments like not debunking the hoaxes well enough, and that's still a
00:35:28.460 criticism. But he also didn't get into any of the weeds much. So if you allow that he's not a weed
00:35:35.760 getter into guy, he's got a strategy that works in debates. He employed his strategy that works
00:35:41.260 in debates, which is not getting into too many details, staying at the high level. And also even
00:35:46.420 his critics are saying he did a great job of bringing everything back to immigration. And he
00:35:52.500 did. If you remember one thing, it's something about immigration, which plays to his strength.
00:35:59.540 I barely remember any of the other topics except that golf thing, which I'm not going to talk about
00:36:04.300 because, yeah, that was just fun. But you all remember when he said,
00:36:09.840 early on, when Biden mumbled, and Trump let this go, he said, I really don't know what he said
00:36:17.920 at the end of the sentence,
00:36:19.300 I don't think he knows what he said either.
00:36:23.260 I'm going to turn the board around
00:36:24.820 and tell you why,
00:36:26.740 if you didn't realize it was more than just funny,
00:36:29.500 because maybe your reaction was,
00:36:31.140 oh, that's funny.
00:36:32.460 It's just like a good joke.
00:36:34.200 And maybe you thought that's all it was.
00:36:36.360 Oh, God, no.
00:36:39.460 This is something that only Trump can do.
00:36:43.260 Watch this.
00:36:47.920 look how much technique he packed into this number one he said it quickly and it was funny
00:37:01.220 and it was clever what were they both trying to prove that night they were trying to prove
00:37:06.860 that biden had mental acuity the moment he showed he didn't trump not only called him out which
00:37:14.600 would have been fine, not only called him out for his lack of mental acuity, but he demonstrated
00:37:20.160 his own quick wit. Contrast is your number one, well, it's in the top five, persuasion techniques.
00:37:29.160 So he created an instant contrast, which he proved to the world he's a fast thinker and a productive
00:37:36.540 fast thinker. Because not only was he fast, but he came up with the perfect, spontaneous,
00:37:43.180 spontaneous, ad-libbed, perfect persuasion. It's the only thing I remembered besides the golf talk
00:37:51.860 because it was funny. It's all I remembered. And you wait a few days after the debate and you say
00:37:56.840 to yourself, what do you remember? You remember that. Now, it also had the effect of being the
00:38:04.940 silent assassin. You want Trump because he's strong. You want Trump if you want Trump. You
00:38:11.980 want him because he can take down his enemies without much effort. You want a guy who can make
00:38:17.000 a kill shot and of low energy Jeb. You want somebody who can change the world with a sentence. 0.94
00:38:24.300 He was a silent assassin. He didn't make a big deal about it. He didn't put on a show.
00:38:30.840 he just gave the face when he was listening to him,
00:38:33.860 like the quizzical face your dog makes
00:38:35.580 when you're talking to your dog
00:38:36.760 and the dog turns his side.
00:38:38.640 I don't even know what those words are.
00:38:41.060 So first he gives you the visual
00:38:42.800 where he's obviously straining
00:38:45.360 to even understand what Biden is saying.
00:38:48.120 So that's good.
00:38:49.600 But when he sticks the shiv in, 1.00
00:38:52.700 it's just such a strong, silent assassin. 1.00
00:38:56.340 He didn't make a lot of noise about it.
00:38:58.720 He just knew it was the kill shot
00:39:00.660 And so he didn't have to yell about it. 0.84
00:39:03.020 He just said, all right, here's the shiv. 0.81
00:39:05.600 Put this right up to your ribs there. 0.88
00:39:07.760 Now, I'm going to be pressing this in really hard while you're all watching.
00:39:12.120 There we go.
00:39:12.800 There we go.
00:39:13.280 There we go.
00:39:13.860 Now, we've penetrated the heart.
00:39:15.600 And now I'd like to tell you some things I'll do as president.
00:39:19.660 It was masterful.
00:39:21.560 All right.
00:39:22.260 The next thing he did was he found a sentence or two that summarized the entire election.
00:39:30.660 The entire election is about the cognitive value of one person versus the other.
00:39:36.460 And he managed to summarize the entire campaign with this sentence, we'll never forget.
00:39:42.740 Two sentences.
00:39:44.300 I forgot it's on the other side of my whiteboard, but I didn't forget the sentence.
00:39:48.780 The other thing he did is with that one reframe, he reframed Biden as a child or as somebody who needs extra help.
00:39:57.980 because he didn't yell at him and the way he talked to them is a way you would only talk
00:40:05.940 to a child if somebody had mental problems and said something you didn't understand
00:40:11.180 would you ever look him right in the face while you're standing there and say i didn't understand
00:40:16.380 that and i don't think you did either no would you say it to an adult no would you say it to a child
00:40:26.040 yeah you would if a three-year-old said blah blah blah blah blah you know and it was like
00:40:33.140 half language and have not you might you might say to a child i don't know what you just said
00:40:39.620 there but i don't think you know either you see what i mean you would only say that to a child
00:40:45.060 there's no other circumstance and so he reframes biden as someone that you can talk right to
00:40:52.140 as if he doesn't even understand what you're saying
00:40:55.380 while you're saying it.
00:40:56.780 The reframe there was subtle, but freaking brilliant.
00:41:01.060 Just the way he did it.
00:41:02.320 If he'd gone strong, it would look like two adults.
00:41:07.500 So in other words, if he said, well, there it is.
00:41:10.000 That's exactly what I've been telling you people.
00:41:12.320 I make sense.
00:41:13.560 He doesn't make sense.
00:41:14.600 He just proved it.
00:41:15.940 That would be two adults talking.
00:41:18.320 He didn't do that.
00:41:19.800 He treated him like he was a child.
00:41:22.140 And you can just dismissively talk about them
00:41:24.580 right in front of them.
00:41:25.880 Brilliant.
00:41:28.160 But here's the big one.
00:41:29.980 There are a couple other things.
00:41:31.580 But the strongest part is,
00:41:34.220 I've taught my local subscribers this trick.
00:41:37.820 It is so powerful as a persuasion.
00:41:40.960 It's when you pace somebody,
00:41:43.200 which is you match their thinking.
00:41:45.900 You either match what they're doing
00:41:47.240 or what they're thinking or saying.
00:41:49.880 So there's different ways to pace them.
00:41:51.280 It basically makes you like the person you're trying to persuade.
00:41:54.420 Oh, yeah, I'm like you.
00:41:55.900 Whatever you're doing, I'm doing too.
00:41:57.480 And then the next thing you say, you're more persuasive because they say, well, you're
00:42:00.560 like me, so I'll listen to you.
00:42:03.120 As soon as Biden started mumbling, what were you thinking at home?
00:42:07.900 You were thinking at exactly the time that Trump said it, you were thinking exactly what
00:42:14.660 he said.
00:42:16.240 That is the most persuasive thing you can do when somebody's in the room.
00:42:21.280 If you can pick out what somebody's thinking at the moment they're thinking it, and it's a
00:42:26.300 non-standard thought, all right, has to be non-standard. A standard thought would be,
00:42:31.900 wow, it's hot today. Okay, you don't get any credit for that, because everybody knows it's
00:42:36.720 hot. It's an ordinary thing. I sure am hungry. No, no, even if the other person's hungry too,
00:42:42.620 nothing, right? Those are ordinary thoughts. But this was an extraordinary situation,
00:42:47.680 a debate, and a very unordinary situation where one of the people said something that didn't
00:42:52.760 make sense to anybody. So Trump gets in all of our heads, Democrats and Republicans,
00:43:00.720 and as you're thinking it, it comes out of his mouth. Oh, my God. You were thinking,
00:43:08.140 I don't know what that meant. You were also thinking, I don't know if he knows what that meant.
00:43:14.780 he said exactly what you were thinking exactly when you thought it now even if you if you take
00:43:23.380 the timing out it doesn't work if he had said it the day after you know i don't know if you heard
00:43:29.020 him but i don't know what he said and i don't think you know either no effect no effect well
00:43:35.100 a little bit it would be a little bit of pacing but you would lose the immediacy if you can do
00:43:40.120 it at the moment somebody's thinking it. And by the way, I teach this technique. This is a real
00:43:46.040 powerful persuasion technique. And he nailed it. Now imagine doing that spontaneously and instantly
00:43:52.960 and having that much right. But it's better. It keeps going. It was funny. Because it was funny,
00:44:01.320 and he knew it would be funny, humor makes you repeat it in your head. When you hear something
00:44:07.960 and it's funny, and it's clever, your head repeats it. The repetition is what makes something become
00:44:14.620 more important in your mind. You can't not repeat it. It's why rhymes work. You repeat rhymes in
00:44:19.800 your head, so that's why they get sticky. So humor is repetition. Repetition forms memory,
00:44:26.960 and as Dr. Carmen Simon teaches us, memory is basically what's going to drive your actions
00:44:36.140 and your opinions. So humor is repetition. Repetition makes memories. Memories is persuasion.
00:44:44.560 And I also tell you that visual persuasion is the most powerful. And you'd say, well,
00:44:51.740 this isn't really visual. It's just something he said. Except that we were looking at Biden's face.
00:44:58.940 Biden's face was the visual of the night. The only visual that anybody talked about is how bad his
00:45:05.380 face looked. So when you match that, you're already thinking, what is wrong with Biden's face
00:45:10.400 with the fact that he's saying sketchy stuff? You get the visual for free. Now, I don't know
00:45:17.540 that that was so planned, but it was there. It was also a surprise because you don't expect
00:45:25.080 somebody to say something in a presidential debate that's quite that clever and biting
00:45:31.620 and right in your face. And so you might say, well, it's not that big a surprise because it's
00:45:37.640 Trump. But even for Trump, it came, you know, maybe came out of nowhere. So surprise also
00:45:44.600 gets your attention. Attention is memory. Memory is persuasion. And I would also argue that in a
00:45:51.260 subtle way, Biden's obvious dementia is scary. Now it's scary in a general way, which is, uh-oh,
00:46:01.180 who's running the country um so you got the fear you got an indirect visual you got him thinking
00:46:08.880 what what you're thinking and saying it as you're thinking it he's reframed him as a child he
00:46:13.900 summarized the entire election he's a silent assassin he showed contrast by being quick-witted
00:46:19.040 it was amazing he did that spontaneously
00:46:26.440 so you know when i had a chance to talk to him about persuasion uh in the oval office in 2018
00:46:34.300 i actually asked him you know have you studied persuasion or is this natural and he told me it
00:46:41.420 was natural that you know you made no special effort to study it it's just a lifetime of
00:46:46.880 picking up tips i guess and uh that was that was the best example you're ever going to see
00:46:52.220 look what i did
00:47:03.940 marcella owen
00:47:08.520 so i love that you guys um i also have to say i do believe this that east coast new york new jersey
00:47:20.140 I think that has a lot to do also with his natural wit and his ability to persuade.
00:47:28.780 I just think that this is like a faster paced, sarcastic, you've got to be quick on your feet
00:47:35.260 and the work in his industry, you just have to know how to like wheel and deal with people
00:47:40.420 and match their energy and like capture them.
00:47:44.400 So I think that has something to do with it too.
00:47:47.040 But I, you guys, I love that.
00:47:49.400 I was taking notes.
00:47:50.280 I haven't seen that in a while.
00:47:52.260 And I think the thing I love the most in what Trump did during that debate with Biden, yes,
00:48:00.280 like if something's funny, you remember it.
00:48:02.940 And it's, you know, funny in a pathetic kind of way at Biden's expense, you remember it
00:48:08.960 and you repeat it and then people start to talk about that thing.
00:48:13.100 So, um, oh, and I don't know, you know, like if you got all of that, I'm sure you did.
00:48:18.760 I get the gist of it.
00:48:20.060 I think, I mean, first of all, I love that stuff too, that this sort of thing is why
00:48:25.220 I followed Scott.
00:48:26.040 Like I just, I, I, I've said this many times, but like I really followed Scott, um, for
00:48:32.020 such a long time because I wanted the persuasion lessons.
00:48:34.360 I wanted him to teach me things I didn't know about persuasion that were like more advanced
00:48:38.680 and, you know, useful.
00:48:40.240 and and this is a perfect example of what that is and where he was breaking it down and he was
00:48:46.920 explaining the techniques and he was teaching you things that would help you become kind of
00:48:51.500 more of a master persuasion or more influential and um i i do think like the way i would interpret
00:48:58.780 what he was describing it is sort of more of a like a mastery level thing like it's not
00:49:06.380 I don't think very many people would study persuasion to get that level of talent I think
00:49:13.400 most people probably would just sort of intuitively get there and even if they had practiced it to get
00:49:20.760 there for years as a lot of people I think do with persuasion they wouldn't necessarily look
00:49:26.500 back on it and say oh yeah I studied that I honed that technique over like most people would just
00:49:31.780 say no I just I don't know that's just the way I am or whatever and but I think that's how mastery
00:49:36.180 of a lot of things are like you don't remember the you know the all the times you fell off a bike
00:49:41.940 you know later you're just like I don't know I just know how to ride a bike and you don't think
00:49:46.200 about it while you're doing it you just do it and I'm sure that's probably what happened with Trump
00:49:52.240 in the moment was he wasn't like thinking okay here's the perfect time to inject my humor so
00:49:56.480 that I can right you know like do this super persuasion thing he was just reacting in the
00:50:02.140 moment naturally but it just happened to be like the perfect thing to say and you know it hit all
00:50:07.400 these buttons that scott just described and um i think it's certainly possible to use what scott
00:50:15.100 just taught us and try and practice it and get better at it but i think if you were successful
00:50:18.780 in that you probably would look back and i'd be like you know i'm i just do those things like i
00:50:23.260 don't think about it in the moment and do you know do the thing that i just thought about it's more
00:50:27.900 like you just have to react in the moment and do what comes naturally to you at that point in time
00:50:34.160 and so um all the masters of persuasion that I've encountered in my professional life um
00:50:42.200 they would say the same thing like I I don't know that I ever had an explicit conversation of like
00:50:46.600 did you study persuasion but I can tell you like they they didn't understand what they were doing
00:50:50.880 when they did it like they didn't they I had to explain it to them sometimes I'm like this is what
00:50:56.060 you did and this is why it worked. But they had no idea. They just were being themselves doing
00:51:01.920 the thing. And so I think that's an interesting thing about when you master a skill. It's like
00:51:08.660 you don't really think about it and you don't necessarily remember how or why you learned it.
00:51:12.860 Yeah. I mean, the opportunity presents itself and you have to seize the moment. So
00:51:19.320 I always tell you guys, I know there's maybe a couple of very good friends of mine and perhaps
00:51:28.220 maybe a family member that watches this every day and I will not allow them to reveal themselves,
00:51:34.260 but they will tell you that I think, talk, and react in sarcasm, quick wit, but it's just because
00:51:43.180 of the situations I've been put in. I was just picturing, I always say this too, you go on
00:51:48.600 vacation somewhere and it's kind of chill and whatever. And I get back to Newark airport and
00:51:53.300 I'm like, ah, my people, because we're all constantly like razzing each other and like
00:51:58.800 seeing the opportunity and whatever. And I just feel like Trump is that. So I feel like
00:52:04.300 my opinion is, you know, that whole New York dynamic. Um, and when the opportunity presents,
00:52:12.000 if you don't seize it or you don't see it, it's, you know, you're not using it to your advantage.
00:52:17.440 and we're so used to politicians just being robots and talking like this. And I am a statesman and
00:52:23.640 da, da, da, da, da. And you don't remember anything and you don't care, but you remember that Trump
00:52:28.620 was not a statesman and he was giving everybody nicknames and he was poking the bear. And like
00:52:33.860 Scott said, putting the shiv in while talking about his policies. And it's like, layer it,
00:52:39.360 right? Just layer it, like get it all in there. You don't have, you don't have to do it this way
00:52:43.600 because that's how people do it. Do it your way, be persuasive, be memorable, and then people
00:52:50.140 will remember you and they'll talk about you. So sometimes you got to not just shake the box,
00:52:57.040 but get the frick out of the box and show people who you are. So I think we're, oh, James. So I
00:53:05.320 think that that's like a perfect thing. And I do love also when he was saying, you know, so I had
00:53:12.500 to go look at my ex bio, like what I have in there, because when Scott was saying, you know,
00:53:18.600 saying, saying what people are thinking at home. And then if he says that thing,
00:53:23.000 then people are like, yeah, that's what I was thinking. And in my Twitter bio, I wrote
00:53:27.380 saying what you're thinking, because I feel like a lot that, cause that's just like what I
00:53:33.100 do. Cause I'm like a little mouthy, but I feel like there's so many men. I remember Scott's
00:53:38.240 like laughing. One time he was like, you know, Erica, oh my God, you wrote something on Twitter
00:53:43.600 today that I could not stop laughing. And I was like, what was it? And I guess there was a video
00:53:49.900 of Kamala with her, I forget her husband's name, Doug Emhoff standing behind her. And I was like,
00:53:56.940 man, there is nothing worse than seeing like a man stand behind his wife, like in this little
00:54:02.420 subservient, you know, dynamic. And Scott was like, Oh my God, like I, you know, I really, 0.86
00:54:08.700 you know, wasn't going to say it, but you said it. And I just feel like I want to say the things
00:54:13.200 that people are thinking because somebody has to do it. And why does it have to be me? I don't know.
00:54:18.140 But, um, I don't know. I just think that it makes you stand out, like shake the box,
00:54:24.060 find the opportunities and seize them. You know, don't be out of line completely. Like we're not,
00:54:29.480 we don't have Trump money and we can't fall back on this empire. But just get out there and say
00:54:36.180 what you're thinking and make people remember you while giving your amazing ideas at the same time.
00:54:43.340 I don't know. I just like it. So listen, Owen, anything more on that?
00:54:49.400 I mean, I think, again, it's just I really appreciate all the things Scott did over the
00:54:54.140 years like this, that he would break that stuff down in a way that you wouldn't get from anybody
00:54:58.720 else like that this is one of the examples like I mean some of the other stuff that he's taught us
00:55:03.060 like you know we're having these discussions right now about how to win friends and influence people
00:55:07.100 some of his micro lessons clearly came directly from there but like this one I don't know where
00:55:11.540 he got all that knowledge like it seems like he did have this really advanced advanced knowledge
00:55:20.900 of persuasion that I don't know and that anyone else could have given us like I've never heard
00:55:26.080 any of this stuff broken down this way other than from scott and so i just really appreciate
00:55:31.820 that what he gave us there um yeah because it is something that hardly anybody talks about like
00:55:36.960 one of the first books we did it for my subscribers was 48 laws of power by robert green and that was
00:55:42.720 the first time that i've been like oh my god like all this stuff that i had been picking up at work
00:55:47.100 from all these really masterful persuasion people like nobody ever talks about it they don't they
00:55:52.600 don't we don't you don't discuss these things because some of it is because some of it can be
00:55:56.600 at least unethical it doesn't have to be in my opinion but like it's kind of you know you don't
00:56:01.120 really talk about it because it's not really polite to do that and um but it was like the
00:56:06.800 first time i'm like wow i've seen all these things i've seen all these games being played i've seen
00:56:11.760 all these techniques being used but nobody ever taught it to me nobody ever said here's what's
00:56:16.160 going on um and and that's again it's like there's to me it's just like a really um I don't know what
00:56:24.300 the right word is but like they you know there's a lot of valuable knowledge there that just is sort
00:56:30.520 of never passed on yeah and never taught to people and so I I just really appreciate you know
00:56:38.900 everything Scott gave us in that sort of topic because it's I think very useful and also very
00:56:45.520 rare. And you guys just make sure, I agree, make sure that it's, it aligns with your personality
00:56:52.320 too. Like you don't want to be, you know, Midwestern sweet and then all of a sudden come
00:56:56.920 out with like grab them by the P. But, um, you know, you like maybe go back and, and watch that
00:57:02.940 last segment again and pick one thing in there that you're like, you know what, let me try
00:57:08.280 implementing that. Like, let me, Oh, Stella, she's going to step on the keyboard and end the show. 1.00
00:57:13.520 oh, okay. I got her. I caught her. So, you know, maybe pick one thing and you're like,
00:57:19.940 you know what? Let me, let me practice that. Let me, if I see an opportunity where someone
00:57:24.620 says something and then I think to myself like, oh God, this is what everybody must want to say
00:57:29.400 right now. Say it, you know, you could say it in a polite way, but say the thing that you know,
00:57:34.300 everyone's thinking and suddenly you've captured them to your side. So, you know, pick one little
00:57:39.620 thing um out of that whole thing and just practice i know stella's so sweet you guys i love her
00:57:44.980 um oh and thanks for coming back you guys thanks for coming back every day i know some of you want
00:57:50.980 to go catch the um dr mengala pleading the fifth so uh we will be back tomorrow the home team
00:57:59.620 and oh oh and what was the book called 48 48 laws of power 48 laws of power
00:58:05.940 okay all right guys so i will stay and do an akira song for anyone that wants to stay
00:58:12.120 owen if you have to go we get it um you guys let's say thank you to uh scott and to shelly
00:58:18.600 for allowing the show to go on thank you you guys for being here you guys mean everything to us
00:58:23.520 and um let's have a closing sip to our beloved scott and think of something that you guys want
00:58:29.800 to do today that honors that lesson he just gave us and like what you want to practice so you can
00:58:35.700 become more of a persuading, influencing machine. All right, guys, even practice like the repairman's
00:58:43.180 coming or you have to go purchase something. Just get into practice, but you have to think
00:58:48.020 about it to practice it. Okay. All right. Love you guys. I'm rambling. To Scott. To Scott.
00:58:58.940 Steve, I give a shit about your ferret. I don't know what that means, but let's go. All right, 0.99
00:59:03.740 let's do get out let's do get out somebody asked me for a reframe to help them get out of their
00:59:12.940 head and you know stop having ruminations and bad thoughts and I suggested the reframe of
00:59:19.780 that I tried myself and it worked where you just say get out where you just say get out 0.94
00:59:27.620 akira get out
00:59:30.400 you just say get out
00:59:35.960 just get out of your head
00:59:38.860 now the frame that makes it work is to realize that you are a person who has two completely
00:59:46.020 different lives this is the key there's a part of you that lives only in your head where you
00:59:52.140 think about the past, which literally doesn't exist. It's imaginary. It existed at one point,
01:00:00.660 but now it's just the thoughts of the past. Get out. You just say, get out. But you also
01:00:14.800 have thoughts of, oh, what will happen in the future? I'm worried about the future.
01:00:18.960 and that doesn't exist doesn't exist so the life you live in your head is a completely imaginary
01:00:28.120 one things of the history in your past that don't exist anymore and worries about the future that
01:00:35.280 doesn't exist yet but the outside world is all real stuff stuff you can touch breathe sense
01:00:41.780 and we live in both of those worlds we go back and forth and so the idea that i had that
01:00:48.780 Worked when I did it was I just said get out
01:00:52.160 What I meant was get out of the imaginary world
01:00:55.680 Get into the real
01:01:03.720 Just say get out
01:01:09.960 Get out
01:01:14.900 Just say get out
01:01:18.780 And just walk out in the sun, walk out the door, pet the dog, do a chore, exercise, just get out.
01:01:31.680 And so I'm going to ask you this as a favor.
01:01:35.300 Try it once.
01:01:36.520 Just try it once.
01:01:37.860 Just tell yourself you have two worlds.
01:01:40.320 There's the imaginary one in your head, and then there's the real one.
01:01:43.540 And all sadness comes from the imaginary one.
01:01:46.060 As soon as you find unpleasantness because you're in your head, get out.
01:01:51.600 Just get out.
01:01:54.540 Join the real world.
01:01:55.900 Just go, hey, I'm in the real world.
01:01:58.240 Look at this.
01:01:59.160 Real world.
01:01:59.980 You'll feel instantly better.
01:02:03.020 The cure for it is to yell, get out.
01:02:10.780 Just say, get out.
01:02:16.060 Get out 0.84
01:02:17.760 Get out
01:02:19.080 Just say, get out
01:02:23.400 Get out
01:02:27.860 Get out
01:02:31.860 Get out
