00:00:07.000 Podcast by night, all day.

00:00:12.000 That's just for Dice to hold.

00:00:14.000 Yeah, he just holds onto him.

00:00:16.000 Oh! 0.60

00:00:18.000 Then he holds onto him, then he swaps them out for a new one.

00:00:22.000 Was the unlit cigarette like the original fidget spinner?

00:00:28.000 Well, most people don't do it because most people, when they have a cigarette in their hand, they want to light it.

00:00:32.000 But Dice has got the ability to just hold on to the cigarette.

00:00:38.000 Do you remember when candy cigarettes were a toy for kids?

00:00:42.000 Yeah, I had those.

00:00:44.000 Oh, yeah.

00:00:44.000 They were priming you.

00:00:45.000 Totally.

00:00:46.000 And they would poof.

00:00:47.000 Like, sugar would come out.

00:00:48.000 No, I don't remember that.

00:00:49.000 Oh, yeah, you go, and like powder sugar would come out.

00:00:51.000 Really?

00:00:52.000 Yeah.

00:00:52.000 Am I right, Jamie?

00:00:53.000 Am I making that up?

00:00:54.000 I remember them just being like a candy that you used to do.

00:00:56.000 Or was that just the cocaine micro parents put on it?

00:00:59.000 It was just a candy stick.

00:01:00.000 It was a candy chalk stick.

00:01:01.000 Maybe there was a different one.

00:01:03.000 Maybe there's more than one kind of candy cigarette.

00:01:05.000 Couldn't you, there was like gummy cigars, I remember, and then the candy cigarettes.

00:01:10.000 That must have been them just trying to get you addicted to just like the motion of it or like participate with your parents or something.

00:01:17.000 Yeah, it was just a way to sell candy, but probably also engineered by the tobacco companies.

00:01:23.000 That was back when they were lying about cigarettes being addictive too and causing cancer.

00:01:27.000 Well, they used to prescribe it to pregnant women, right?

00:01:30.000 They used to prescribe it for kids with asthma.

00:01:34.000 Yeah.

00:01:34.000 You need to strengthen those lungs, that fella.

00:01:36.000 And this is my favorite thing.

00:01:38.000 Did they know?

00:01:40.000 They already knew.

00:01:41.000 Yeah, they already knew.

00:01:42.000 They already knew.

00:01:43.000 Everybody had to know.

00:01:44.000 You smoke cigarettes for a while.

00:01:45.000 You start coughing up black shit.

00:01:46.000 You feel terrible.

00:01:48.000 According to the internet, this pack did have some sort of would-blow smoke, according to this person on Facebook.

00:01:54.000 Whoa.

00:01:55.000 I didn't remember a play lighter or a lighter battery.

00:01:59.000 A battery.

00:02:00.000 I don't know what that is.

00:02:01.000 Smoke that would suck on this battery.

00:02:03.000 What the fuck?

00:02:05.000 As kids, we would suck on actual batteries.

00:02:06.000 We didn't want to come.

00:02:07.000 Oh, yeah.

00:02:08.000 Remember when you lick them?

00:02:08.000 Dude, we would just try to like square ones.

00:02:12.000 Yeah, the nine volts.

00:02:13.000 We'd be in school, just like, lick it, like, like.

00:02:15.000 Yeah, we would lick it just to get a jolt in your tongue.

00:02:18.000 It is wild.

00:02:20.000 Like, yes, the phones are obviously very bad for kids, but when you think about the stuff we did as kids, I was just like, I would just hang out with a light socket for like two hours.

00:02:27.000 It's all I needed.

00:02:28.000 A paperclip, light socket.

00:02:29.000 Like, it's a merry.

00:02:30.000 Light socket.

00:02:31.000 Or like a, yeah, the electric socket?

00:02:34.000 Electric socket.

00:02:35.000 You would go into an electric socket with a paperclip?

00:02:38.000 Did no one else do this?

00:02:40.000 That's really bad.

00:02:41.000 Did you inhale glue or no?

00:02:43.000 Oh, I sniffed glue.

00:02:43.000 Rubber cement?

00:02:44.000 Yeah, okay, yeah.

00:02:44.000 I'm like, okay.

00:02:45.000 Oh, I used to love making models.

00:02:47.000 I used to make like Godzilla models.

00:02:49.000 You know, those models? 0.99

00:02:51.000 Yeah.

00:02:51.000 You had rubber cement glue.

00:02:52.000 Remember those?

00:02:53.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:02:53.000 You would, and Elmer's too.

00:02:55.000 Yeah.

00:02:56.000 Peel it off your skin.

00:02:56.000 We just put it on our skin and just peel it off.

00:02:58.000 Oh, yeah.

00:02:59.000 Just like a leprosy fetish or something.

00:03:01.000 Yeah.

00:03:02.000 Well, the rubber cement glue was a big one, though.

00:03:05.000 A lot of people sniffed glue.

00:03:07.000 We used to have a glue gun.

00:03:08.000 My mom had a glue gun. 1.00

00:03:10.000 For what?

00:03:11.000 Like a hot glue gun to crafts, arts, crafts. 0.90

00:03:15.000 Okay.

00:03:15.000 Kill men.

00:03:16.000 When you look back at shit, your parents did.

00:03:16.000 I don't know.

00:03:18.000 You're like, what was that?

00:03:19.000 What were you interested in?

00:03:20.000 Why did she have powdered gold and put it in coffee of the men she was dating? 0.98

00:03:23.000 What was that?

00:03:25.000 But like a glue gun.

00:03:26.000 Like there was just so much dangerous shit growing up.

00:03:28.000 When I think about my injuries as a kid, I'm like, yeah, I got burned on the glue gun.

00:03:31.000 Everyone's like, huh?

00:03:32.000 Yeah, they weren't looking out for kids back then.

00:03:35.000 Like, when did they start worrying about dangerous toys?

00:03:40.000 I mean, after the 50th lawn dart, you know, aorta puncture.

00:03:46.000 Oh, I remember lawn darts.

00:03:47.000 Those are crazy.

00:03:48.000 You're just throwing like...

00:03:49.000 It's a fucking weapon.

00:03:50.000 And they were heavy.

00:03:51.000 If they hit you in the head, you would die.

00:03:53.000 Dude, it was just like tetanus.

00:03:55.000 Right in the heart.

00:03:57.000 Let's look this up.

00:03:58.000 How many people do you think have died from lawn?

00:04:00.000 Lawn darts.

00:04:01.000 It has to be.

00:04:02.000 Way more than is reported, for sure.

00:04:04.000 Right, right, right.

00:04:05.000 I'm just putting this here, so I don't know.

00:04:06.000 It has to be dozens.

00:04:07.000 And seesaws.

00:04:09.000 Yes.

00:04:10.000 You remember seesaws?

00:04:11.000 No seatbelt, no, just plywood with a handle.

00:04:17.000 But we would also, it's such a testament to our nature because we would make it even more dangerous.

00:04:20.000 Like, remember, like, you'd be on the seesaw.

00:04:22.000 Like, if you were up, I would like jump off it to watch the kid.

00:04:26.000 Just to watch the kid fucking plummet to the earth.

00:04:29.000 So sadistic.

00:04:30.000 Just careen to the light.

00:04:31.000 Okay, what is our sponsor, Perplexity, said?

00:04:35.000 Pointed metal lawn darts were officially linked to three child deaths in the United States before they were banned.

00:04:40.000 Just three?

00:04:41.000 Definitely more than that.

00:04:42.000 Officially linked.

00:04:43.000 From 78 to 86, approximately 6,100 to 6,700 people were treated in U.S. emergency rooms for lawn dart injuries, most of them children.

00:04:53.000 Found lawn dart injuries led to a 4% case fatality rate in its patient sample with many severe head and eye injuries, which helped justify the eventual ban.

00:05:05.000 So only a couple, but mostly children.

00:05:08.000 I would like to know the story of the adults.

00:05:11.000 But I mean, people hit people with shovels.

00:05:15.000 I guess it was because lawn darts are a toy that they had a banned it.

00:05:20.000 Yeah, there was a lot of that.

00:05:21.000 Remember, what are the pogo sticks?

00:05:25.000 I mean, those were so dangerous when you think about it.

00:05:27.000 They were just like, they were just like, all we still have those, though.

00:05:31.000 Pogo sticks.

00:05:31.000 Those were hard to do.

00:05:32.000 They were the most dangerous toys for kids.

00:05:34.000 Trampolines.

00:05:35.000 Remember the ones with the metal coils?

00:05:37.000 Oh, did you ever see the Atomic Energy Lab in the 1950s?

00:05:41.000 Yes.

00:05:42.000 Yeah, it actually had legitimate radioactive material.

00:05:47.000 I love that they were like, you know what, guys, child labor.

00:05:49.000 This is inhumane.

00:05:50.000 This is wrong.

00:05:51.000 Come.

00:05:51.000 Go.

00:05:52.000 Play with some toys.

00:05:53.000 Here's a radioactive uranium bomb.

00:05:55.000 Well, didn't Michio Kaku make some sort of a reactor in his basement or his backyard or something like that when he was a child?

00:06:04.000 When he was in high school, I think.

00:06:05.000 Yeah.

00:06:06.000 Legend.

00:06:09.000 He's like a legitimate scientist.

00:06:11.000 But I mean, when he was a child, he made a fucking nuclear reactor in his backyard.

00:06:15.000 I went to get Nyquil or Sudafed the other day, and they made me show my ID.

00:06:21.000 Oh, yeah, because you can make meth with it.

00:06:22.000 Right, right, right, right.

00:06:23.000 Sick.

00:06:24.000 Meanwhile, you can get a prescription for Adderall.

00:06:26.000 You just say you have ADHD.

00:06:27.000 I don't even think you have to do that.

00:06:28.000 You just have to be like, I'm bored.

00:06:30.000 Right.

00:06:31.000 I'm neurodivergent.

00:06:32.000 Yeah.

00:06:33.000 Right.

00:06:34.000 I mean, it's all self-diagnosed.

00:06:36.000 I can't concentrate.

00:06:37.000 Are we going to look back the way that we look at like, you know, the Nazis and go, like, they were on meth?

00:06:41.000 Are we going to look back in like 20 years and be like, everyone was on meth?

00:06:44.000 Yeah, everyone's on Adderall.

00:06:46.000 I mean, the amount of journalists that are on Adderall is off the charts.

00:06:46.000 That's for damn sure.

00:06:50.000 A friend of mine was telling me, like, all of his colleagues take Adderall.

00:06:55.000 Help them work.

00:06:56.000 Yeah.

00:06:57.000 Because they have so many projects that they're doing that require intense fucking research and they're Googling, saying ChatGPT, please write my article for me.

00:07:07.000 Did you see?

00:07:08.000 I think it was in New York Times where someone left in.

00:07:10.000 Jamie, do you remember the prompt that ends the, you know, what it spits out on ChatGPT to prove that they had just copy and pasted it?

00:07:20.000 Like wild.

00:07:21.000 Yeah, well, there's a lot of that.

00:07:22.000 There's a lot of shitty people in every walk of life.

00:07:25.000 There's bad doctors, bad plumbers, bad journalists, but a lot of them are on Adderall.

00:07:32.000 A lot of them are on speed.

00:07:34.000 It's just that there's so much adrenaline out there to get.

00:07:37.000 There's so many natural ways, I feel like, to get that.

00:07:39.000 Yeah, but I don't think it covers it.

00:07:41.000 I think if you really want to sit in front of that fucking computer and bang out words, it seems like Adderall is the way to go.

00:07:47.000 But if you really do have ADD or whatever this is, I'm the first to say, what are all these diagnoses?

00:07:53.000 But because I was prescribed five milligrams slow release adderall to sleep.

00:07:59.000 To sleep.

00:08:00.000 If you actually have it, it calms you down.

00:08:02.000 It doesn't amp you up.

00:08:03.000 What is it?

00:08:04.000 What is it?

00:08:05.000 ADHD?

00:08:06.000 The inability to focus or the busy brain.

00:08:09.000 Dude, I look, I just, I think a lot of our superpowers are being dull.

00:08:14.000 A lot of people with superpowers are being dulled by pharma and we're being pathologized for actually kind of extreme strengths, you know, in a lot of ways.

00:08:23.000 So there's a lot of like legitimate people that are arguing that about ADHD.

00:08:28.000 Okay, good.

00:08:28.000 I'm not like a legitimate psychologist, neuroscientists.

00:08:33.000 It's what it is, is you can't concentrate on things you're not interested in, but you can concentrate on things you're interested in like heavily.

00:08:40.000 Like people that are that supposedly have ADHD, they could play video games for fucking 10 hours a day.

00:08:47.000 That's right.

00:08:47.000 That's exactly right.

00:08:48.000 Well, how come?

00:08:49.000 Because it's exciting.

00:08:50.000 Oh, they can't sit in a classroom and watch some pedophile lecture them on fake history while they're getting hemorrhoids in some like chair with like shitty lighting above them.

00:08:58.000 I mean, it's like, yeah, of course kids are bored.

00:09:00.000 Of course they can't sit still.

00:09:01.000 Exactly.

00:09:02.000 You know, well, it was, I was reading about how Finland, they don't teach their kids to read until they're like seven because it's better to have them develop their ability to focus first on the things they want to do.

00:09:13.000 So by the time they do learn to read, they actually, you know, can focus.

00:09:16.000 Sounds like a terrible idea.

00:09:18.000 You're going to be so far behind my kids.

00:09:20.000 Well, yeah.

00:09:20.000 I mean, look, kids in America learn how to read when they're little babies.

00:09:24.000 If at all.

00:09:25.000 If at all.

00:09:28.000 Like, I mean, yeah, that's the other thing.

00:09:29.000 When it's like, don't teach kids to read.

00:09:30.000 It's like, by that time, is Nerling just going to learn to read for them?

00:09:33.000 It's interesting, like, having a kid.

00:09:33.000 Who knows?

00:09:35.000 Now, I'm like, what do I, what world do I prepare them for?

00:09:37.000 Do I even teach them Mandarin or is that just going to be like, remember when you two just put a song on our phone?

00:09:44.000 Well, that was Apple's idea.

00:09:44.000 It was so weird.

00:09:46.000 And, you know, I talked to Bono about that.

00:09:48.000 It was devastating for them because all of a sudden everyone hated you too.

00:09:52.000 They used to love you too.

00:09:54.000 They had so many hits.

00:09:55.000 They're so good.

00:09:55.000 And then all of a sudden, fuck you.

00:09:56.000 Why are you on my phone?

00:09:58.000 Isn't that interesting the human nature of I love something unless you force it on me?

00:10:02.000 Yeah.

00:10:03.000 Well, it's just people are always looking for a reason to complain.

00:10:06.000 And if you have this song on your phone right away, like, hey, fuck these guys.

00:10:12.000 But also, I want to hunt.

00:10:13.000 Let me find it.

00:10:14.000 Let me feel like I discovered something.

00:10:15.000 Well, I think they just thought it would be a great way to promote this new album.

00:10:20.000 And they just really didn't understand human nature.

00:10:24.000 It's also, yeah, it used to be like, if you saw five billboards for something, you're like, I got to see that movie.

00:10:28.000 Now you see like five ads for it and you're like, why are you trying so hard?

00:10:31.000 Like, if it's good, I'll hear about it.

00:10:32.000 Yeah, I try to tell it to my friends.

00:10:34.000 Like, do not get overexposed.

00:10:36.000 Like, there's a reason.

00:10:38.000 I mean, I don't just say no to everything because I'm not interested in doing anything more.

00:10:43.000 But it's also because I'm clearly overexposed.

00:10:46.000 And you got to know when you're overexposed.

00:10:49.000 But I have friends that like, they'll do every fucking interview that anybody asks.

00:10:52.000 They'll do every project that comes up.

00:10:54.000 They never have any time.

00:10:55.000 Like, I got to slow down.

00:10:56.000 Yeah, you got to slow down.

00:10:57.000 Like, why are you doing all this shit?

00:10:59.000 You're already wealthy.

00:11:00.000 Yeah.

00:11:00.000 Why are you doing this?

00:11:01.000 Be a little mysterious.

00:11:03.000 Live a fucking life.

00:11:06.000 Live a life on top of what you're doing.

00:11:09.000 Live an actual life.

00:11:10.000 Don't wait until you're 60 and go, what did I do?

00:11:13.000 Right.

00:11:14.000 Even if it's for if you need to justify it through workaholic purposes, like it took me so long to get out of my workaholism.

00:11:20.000 The first time I had to do it by justifying it by going, I'll be better at my work if I have a life.

00:11:25.000 Like for art to imitate life, you have to have a life.

00:11:27.000 That's how I'm going to go get stories.

00:11:28.000 That's how I'm going to go.

00:11:30.000 I think especially as a comic now, there's a lot of funny people out there.

00:11:33.000 I think if we've learned anything from memes and stuff, you're like, I don't, this guy just works at Best Buy and who made this meme?

00:11:39.000 This is hilarious, you know?

00:11:40.000 I think in the beginning, a lot of it was like stolen from comics.

00:11:43.000 Remember like that fat Jewish hidden. 1.00

00:11:45.000 Whatever happened to that guy?

00:11:45.000 Oh, yeah.

00:11:46.000 There was another one too.

00:11:48.000 I don't know.

00:11:49.000 But he was stealing memes or he was stealing jokes and turning them into memes.

00:11:53.000 There was a couple where you would go like, that's a Mitch Hepberg joke.

00:11:56.000 Like, that's definitely a Steven Wright joke or Dimitri or something, but like Zach Alfanakis.

00:12:01.000 Or it would be lesser-known comics.

00:12:04.000 You know, like they'd go to a lesser-known comic feed, like people that wrote for Fallon or Leno, who'd, you know, showcase night of the store.

00:12:12.000 Or like get their tweets.

00:12:13.000 You can just pull their tweets and change them a little bit.

00:12:16.000 Whatever happened to that guy because he was hated.

00:12:19.000 Boy, when he started getting exposed, he was hated, and then he just kind of vanished.

00:12:23.000 There was another one, too.

00:12:26.000 And I don't remember the name of it.

00:12:28.000 That was doing the same exact thing.

00:12:30.000 But the fat Jewish guy almost seemed like he was like a corporate created entity because the crazy hair, right? 1.00

00:12:36.000 That weird fucking bun.

00:12:38.000 That's right.

00:12:39.000 Yeah.

00:12:39.000 He was like a slob.

00:12:41.000 But he had like a wine.

00:12:43.000 He sold it to Anizer Bush for millions of dollars.

00:12:45.000 I don't know how much.

00:12:47.000 A rose.

00:12:47.000 What did he sell?

00:12:49.000 What is rosé?

00:12:50.000 It's a type of wine, but that's what the brand was called.

00:12:54.000 Oh, no, no, no.

00:12:55.000 I know what Rose was.

00:12:56.000 That's what the brand was called too.

00:12:59.000 My heart cannot take Rose.

00:13:01.000 He made a Rose called Rose.

00:13:02.000 Who fucks Rose? 1.00

00:13:03.000 I know Rose, the wine.

00:13:04.000 He's called Babe.

00:13:05.000 I see that now.

00:13:06.000 Rose company called Babe.

00:13:07.000 Oh, so he sold his wine and then he just like, I'm out.

00:13:10.000 And yeah, it says he's about to open a bank.

00:13:10.000 For millions.

00:13:13.000 That's what this article says.

00:13:14.000 Where do I sign up?

00:13:16.000 It must be hilarious if he's opening up a bank.

00:13:18.000 Definitely didn't steal those jokes.

00:13:20.000 Most really hilarious people want to open a fucking bank.

00:13:20.000 Yeah.

00:13:22.000 I love that he's just like, I'm Jewish.

00:13:24.000 What am I good at?

00:13:25.000 Just open a bank.

00:13:26.000 Like, what?

00:13:28.000 He's not even Jewish. 0.95

00:13:30.000 Baptist or something.

00:13:30.000 Exactly.

00:13:32.000 Yeah, Jews are like, we're not fat.

00:13:33.000 What is it?

00:13:33.000 Like, get your shit together.

00:13:34.000 But also, yeah, that was so like for a second there.

00:13:37.000 I was like, Joe, there's a chance he doesn't know what Rose is.

00:13:40.000 No, no, no, I know what that is.

00:13:42.000 You know, like, I just thought it was a company.

00:13:43.000 It's what like the Rainy Street Killer gives his victims before pushing them off.

00:13:48.000 Dude, your boy Brandon over here, I was like, what's up with the Rainy Street Killer?

00:13:51.000 I always want the updates on the Austin serial killer who's pushing gay dudes up bridges. 1.00

00:13:55.000 And he said, he's like, I think it's tech, tech guys.

00:13:58.000 They come down from San Francisco doing South by Southwest, and he strikes when it's like a tech conference.

00:14:03.000 Really?

00:14:04.000 And he doesn't live here, yeah.

00:14:05.000 They're trying to pretend that it's not really a serial killer.

00:14:08.000 The cops want to say it's not really a serial killer.

00:14:11.000 And I'm like, how many guys have to drown before you start getting nervous?

00:14:16.000 So they're only gay that these guys are.

00:14:19.000 Well, it's a gay neighborhood. 0.88

00:14:20.000 That's the thing.

00:14:21.000 Not all of Rainy Street, but there's a lot of like gay bars and gay spots on Rainy Street.

00:14:26.000 How do the cops know the victims are gay?

00:14:30.000 They just like their assholes.

00:14:35.000 They're like, I fucked his, I fucked the corpse's asshole. 0.94

00:14:38.000 He's gay. 0.99

00:14:39.000 They bring a dilator.

00:14:41.000 You know, I've seen that guy in Grindr.

00:14:43.000 He is gay. 0.99

00:14:44.000 It reminds me of the Nazi. 0.89

00:14:48.000 It's been 10 minutes and I brought up Nazis twice. 0.78

00:14:51.000 The Nazis also killed gay people.

00:14:53.000 And like, I'm obsessed with how there were Nazis that had to find out who was gay.

00:14:59.000 So did Christians. 1.00

00:15:00.000 Oh, really?

00:15:01.000 Of course.

00:15:02.000 People are like, I just fuck these guys.

00:15:02.000 It's in the Bible.

00:15:04.000 Let's get them.

00:15:04.000 They are gay.

00:15:05.000 In the old days in the Bible, if a man layeth with another man, you're supposed to be put to death.

00:15:11.000 That means like someone signed up to be like, I'll do it.

00:15:15.000 I'll investigate who's gay around here. 1.00

00:15:17.000 Well, the thing is, though, they were all gay. 0.99

00:15:18.000 Yeah.

00:15:19.000 That's the crazy thing.

00:15:20.000 Like, if you go back in history, guys were fucking each other all the time.

00:15:24.000 The Spartans did it.

00:15:25.000 They had a philosophy that you would defend your lover more because if you were fighting alongside a man that you loved, you would defend him more.

00:15:36.000 Was it love?

00:15:38.000 Is that what love is?

00:15:39.000 I'm still trying to figure it out.

00:15:40.000 Everybody's got their own definition for that.

00:15:42.000 Yeah.

00:15:42.000 Like, what is it?

00:15:43.000 Love is mysterious.

00:15:46.000 That's wild.

00:15:46.000 I always am like, what are the things we're doing now that we're going to look back in 50 years and be like, remember in 2006 when they were doing that?

00:15:53.000 Trans surgeries? 0.98

00:15:54.000 100%, especially on children.

00:15:56.000 Also having phones 24-7.

00:15:58.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:15:58.000 100%.

00:15:59.000 Phones will be like cigarettes.

00:16:00.000 We'll be like.

00:16:00.000 No, no, it'll be in your body by then.

00:16:03.000 Oh, right.

00:16:04.000 It'll be fun.

00:16:06.000 They'll be laughing.

00:16:07.000 Remember, you used to have to carry your phone around?

00:16:09.000 Right.

00:16:10.000 Back in my day.

00:16:10.000 Right, right, right.

00:16:11.000 You could leave your phone at a restaurant.

00:16:13.000 Right.

00:16:13.000 Remember when you couldn't just print from your mouth?

00:16:16.000 Remember when you could find a phone and just make calls from it because there was no passwords?

00:16:21.000 If you found someone's flip phone, you just open that bitch up and start calling people. 1.00

00:16:25.000 Dude.

00:16:25.000 Yeah.

00:16:26.000 You'd have to shut your phone off.

00:16:27.000 You'd have to go to the Verizon store and go, hey, shut my fucking phone off.

00:16:31.000 And by then, it was just calling China.

00:16:36.000 That was the other thing.

00:16:37.000 You'd have roaming charges.

00:16:38.000 Do you remember those?

00:16:40.000 Yes.

00:16:40.000 Also, remember when you lost your phone and that was it?

00:16:43.000 Now I can find my phone within my own house.

00:16:43.000 Oh, yeah.

00:16:45.000 It'll tell me what room it's in.

00:16:46.000 Well, not only that, if I don't find my phone, I could just go to the Apple store and my phone is in the cloud.

00:16:52.000 And then instantaneously, I get a new phone that's the same phone as my old phone with all my messages, all my notes, which is even more.

00:17:01.000 My notes are more important than my messages because I keep so many material ideas.

00:17:04.000 So you back them up.

00:17:05.000 Oh, yeah.

00:17:06.000 Always.

00:18:02.000 I use Evernote, I back them up.

00:18:04.000 Oh, yeah.

00:18:04.000 I like Evernote and Elephant was one I was using for a while.

00:18:08.000 It's like same thing.

00:18:09.000 Like helps organize because you can also search by keyword.

00:18:13.000 Oh, okay.

00:18:13.000 You know, because sometimes, like, I've, I've, look, mombrain, you know, is real, but I think it's kind of good.

00:18:21.000 I think it's like a software update.

00:18:22.000 It's like deleting shit I didn't need to be remembering anyway.

00:18:25.000 That's a nice way of coping.

00:18:26.000 You know, like my hippocampus was just full of so I actually in some ways feel like you might be smarter if you forget half the shit you know because half the shit we learned has been debunked anyway.

00:18:36.000 Like half of like science and history like is not even so me unknowing it might even make me smarter.

00:18:42.000 Like Andrew Huberman was having a conversation with a professor at Stanford and he said, what percentage of what's in medical journals and what's taught in school is no longer applicable?

00:18:53.000 He said at least 50%.

00:18:55.000 Unbelievable.

00:18:56.000 At least 50% of the stuff that they were telling people.

00:18:59.000 Like look, they just turned the food pyramid upside down.

00:19:02.000 Crazy.

00:19:03.000 The food pyramid, not only did it used to just be like bran muffins, it was just like bare claw.

00:19:12.000 Like what the fuck?

00:19:13.000 Yeah, you need spaghetti.

00:19:14.000 That's number one.

00:19:15.000 Spaghetti O's at the base.

00:19:17.000 So crazy.

00:19:18.000 Grab the LD slightly above that.

00:19:20.000 And remember they just had a fish with like eyeballs?

00:19:23.000 like that's actually probably a good one now but um but at the top you know now like the littlest amount of stuff you're supposed to get is grains and you're supposed to get meat and eggs at the bottom which was always i mean look there was a study that was like widely criticized fairly recently that labeled fruit loops as being healthier than ground beef But who sponsored that stuff?

00:19:47.000 That's the thing about all these things.

00:19:48.000 It's like, who are these people?

00:19:50.000 And can I see them naked?

00:19:51.000 Yeah, that's it.

00:19:52.000 Take your fucking clothes off.

00:19:53.000 Let me see what you look like.

00:19:55.000 That's my same thing about quotes.

00:19:56.000 You know how we're in this quote culture where you'll just like, and you probably don't have this in your algorithm, but it's like inspiring quotes.

00:20:03.000 And I'm like, I need to know who said it.

00:20:05.000 I need to know who said it.

00:20:06.000 Well, a lot of times it's fake.

00:20:08.000 You'll see quotes attributed to Einstein.

00:20:10.000 Sure.

00:20:10.000 And then I'll try to find out if it's real and it's not.

00:20:12.000 Right, right, right.

00:20:13.000 But it's just sort of like, it's like...

00:20:14.000 Slightly anti-Semitic quotes.

00:20:17.000 You know, you're like, hmm.

00:20:19.000 Did Aristotle really say this?

00:20:20.000 Right, right.

00:20:21.000 The Stoics, yeah.

00:20:22.000 Like, I don't know, man.

00:20:25.000 But you weren't even Jews back then.

00:20:27.000 What the fuck is this guy talking about?

00:20:31.000 I'm going to unfollow Arisia Fear once and for all.

00:20:34.000 But it said General Mills on it.

00:20:37.000 It said GM on the side.

00:20:39.000 When we were all looking at this pyramid, we knew that General Mills put this pyramid.

00:20:42.000 And we didn't even think that there was a conflict of interest there.

00:20:45.000 Do you know how the whole Kellogg's cereal thing came about?

00:20:50.000 The Jerry Seinfeld movie?

00:20:52.000 No.

00:20:52.000 Kellogg's.

00:20:54.000 Do you know why he decided to make these bland cereals?

00:21:00.000 Why?

00:21:01.000 To keep people from masturbating.

00:21:03.000 Sick.

00:21:04.000 That was the whole idea behind it.

00:21:05.000 To give people bland food so that they wouldn't get aroused.

00:21:10.000 Is that what causes erections? 0.85

00:21:12.000 Asking for a friend?

00:21:13.000 Yes.

00:21:14.000 The only way.

00:21:15.000 Is that how to turn my guy on?

00:21:17.000 Yeah, spicy food.

00:21:18.000 Put it on your pussy. 1.00

00:21:19.000 Really?

00:21:20.000 Because I remember the Seinfeld thing was the post.

00:21:22.000 That was Pop Charts.

00:21:23.000 So this is how actual cereal was invented?

00:21:26.000 Cereal.

00:21:27.000 Breakfast cereal.

00:21:28.000 Kellogg's breakfast cereal.

00:21:30.000 Specifically, he was like some sort of a weird Puritan.

00:21:32.000 Hey, let's look it up because he had some really bizarre ideas.

00:21:37.000 But the primary idea was that if you feed kids bland food, it would stop them from being horny.

00:21:46.000 Kids.

00:21:47.000 Do kids get horny? 0.96

00:21:48.000 Oh, yeah.

00:21:48.000 I'm sorry.

00:21:49.000 Like 13, 14?

00:21:50.000 Okay, okay.

00:21:51.000 Okay, got it, I got it.

00:21:52.000 Teens.

00:21:52.000 Teenships.

00:21:53.000 Well, as soon as the hormones start going.

00:21:55.000 Sure, sure, sure.

00:21:56.000 I remember being like, where is all this coming from?

00:21:59.000 Like, you're all of a sudden horny, like where you were never horny, and then all of a sudden you're 12 and it starts coming on like a storm.

00:22:06.000 Yeah.

00:22:06.000 And then you're 13.

00:22:07.000 You're like, what the fuck?

00:22:08.000 And all your female teachers want to fuck you. 1.00

00:22:11.000 It's better than if you live in Florida.

00:22:13.000 They're all just letting you motorboat them between periods.

00:22:16.000 I think you made that wrong.

00:22:19.000 Yeah, it is.

00:22:20.000 Once you have a kid, like, it really is.

00:22:22.000 I feel so cliche about the ways you change once you have a kid.

00:22:26.000 Everyone warns you and you're like, okay, okay.

00:22:28.000 I mean, you really look at every authority figure around kids differently.

00:22:32.000 Every teacher, every coach.

00:22:34.000 You're just like, what are you in this for?

00:22:36.000 You're not in it for the money.

00:22:38.000 You're getting paid nothing.

00:22:39.000 You don't have kids to go to school.

00:22:40.000 Like, what are you up to, dude?

00:22:42.000 Indoctrinating kids.

00:22:43.000 Here it is.

00:22:44.000 Brand flakes.

00:22:45.000 No, Kellogg's brand flakes were not created to stop kids from getting horny.

00:22:48.000 But the broader Kellogg's cereal story is tied to some very weird anti-sex ideas from the 19th and 20th century.

00:22:55.000 Kellogg's brand flakes were introduced in 1915 as a high-fiber breakfast cereal market as a health food, aid, digest, and promote better for you breakfasts.

00:23:03.000 Where the sex myth comes from.

00:23:05.000 John Harvey Kellogg, a physician and Seventh-day Adventist, there it is, did believe that bland, plain diets, especially cereal and nuts, could help reduce sexual desire and masturbation.

00:23:16.000 And he pushed those ideas at his sanitarium.

00:23:18.000 So what the fuck is the, no, it's a myth.

00:23:21.000 It's not a myth.

00:23:22.000 This is his idea.

00:23:24.000 He believed it and he sold that stuff.

00:23:26.000 How can they say that's a myth?

00:23:28.000 Can you imagine how hard the publicists at Kellogg's are working to make sure that's not a myth?

00:23:35.000 That's why it's listed saying that it's a myth.

00:23:37.000 That's the only reason why perplexity is getting confused because there's a bunch of propaganda saying it's not.

00:23:41.000 All you have to do is look at the first thing.

00:23:44.000 John Harvey Kellogg believed that plain bland diets could help reduce sexual desire and masturbation.

00:23:51.000 And he sold plain bland food.

00:23:55.000 And back then, cereal was pretty much just for kids.

00:23:56.000 You can already assume that it's going to be targeted at kids.

00:23:59.000 These beliefs are most closely associated with early flake cereals like cornflakes and his general biological living health philosophy, not with bran flakes.

00:24:07.000 Whatever.

00:24:09.000 So how true is the rumor?

00:24:10.000 It is fair to say that some of Kellogg's early cereal experiments were influenced by his belief that plain foods could encourage sexual restraint.

00:24:18.000 So it is a good rumor.

00:24:20.000 So why are they saying that it's not that it's a myth?

00:24:22.000 I typed in bran instead of cornflakes and it's just oh bran.

00:24:26.000 There's it was it was the bland bland.

00:24:29.000 Did you think I said bran?

00:24:31.000 I mean I typed in bran because I meant bland.

00:24:34.000 Yeah, I know.

00:24:34.000 But bran is like a little bit more flavorful.

00:24:37.000 I used to really like bran cereals.

00:24:39.000 I love raisin bran.

00:24:40.000 Yeah.

00:24:41.000 It's delicious.

00:24:42.000 Raisin bran is the bomb digging.

00:24:43.000 It's so filling.

00:24:44.000 It's so good.

00:24:45.000 Especially frosted raisin bran with the sugar.

00:24:48.000 And we would pour sugar on it too.

00:24:50.000 We always thought sugar just gave you cavities.

00:24:53.000 Nobody thought it was killing you.

00:24:54.000 Yeah.

00:24:54.000 So we'd take scoops of sugar and just throw it on those fucking raisin bran bars.

00:24:58.000 Frosted flakes was my shit.

00:25:00.000 Oh, yeah.

00:25:01.000 I was a big Captain Crunch man myself.

00:25:03.000 Peanut butter.

00:25:04.000 Oh, yeah.

00:25:04.000 Captain.

00:25:05.000 Captain.

00:25:06.000 Yeah.

00:25:06.000 Captain Crunch.

00:25:07.000 Captain Crunch.

00:25:07.000 We used to mix white trash till I die, Applejacks with cinnamon toast crunch.

00:25:13.000 Ooh, those are good ones.

00:25:14.000 Now what, RFK?

00:25:16.000 Now what?

00:25:17.000 Yeah, you better let me keep having those.

00:25:19.000 You know, I don't think you should ban those, man.

00:25:21.000 I think it's important to have restraint and to have the option to do something.

00:25:26.000 Why not have a little fucking discipline?

00:25:28.000 That's it.

00:25:28.000 Every day.

00:25:29.000 That's it.

00:25:29.000 Yeah.

00:25:29.000 That's it.

00:25:30.000 How about give me the fruit loops with the dye?

00:25:32.000 I want to look at pretty colors.

00:25:36.000 I want my shit to be neon.

00:25:37.000 I'm not going to get cancer if I eat one bowl.

00:25:39.000 Okay, shut up. 0.99

00:25:40.000 That's the other thing.

00:25:41.000 It's like the stress is the worst for us.

00:25:42.000 So the stress about sugar eating sugar is worse than just eating it.

00:25:46.000 I was just talking to a friend who has suffered multiple heart attacks from stress.

00:25:51.000 His doctor says there's nothing wrong with his arteries.

00:25:54.000 And he's gotten these heart attacks because literally his body constricts.

00:25:54.000 Right.

00:26:00.000 He's in like a very serious situation.

00:26:02.000 And his body constricts so heavily that his arteries fucking close up and he has heart attacks.

00:26:09.000 So what is the difference between, because I'm all about good stress on your body, like exposing yourself to good stress and then bad stress.

00:26:18.000 Your body knows the difference, right?

00:26:20.000 Bad stress is going to be like the cortisol and then good stress.

00:26:23.000 That's like adrenaline, right?

00:26:25.000 Well, I'm hoping you're going to cut me off.

00:26:27.000 Please cut me off.

00:26:28.000 Hermetic effect.

00:26:29.000 So the hermetic effect is like there's an argument with certain foods, right?

00:26:33.000 There's an argument against certain foods, like that they have phytochemicals in them.

00:26:38.000 So what they have is like an actual toxin that discourages predation, right?

00:26:43.000 But some of that is actually has a hermetic effect and it's actually good for you.

00:26:48.000 Like, what's a good one?

00:26:51.000 Broccoli sprouts.

00:26:52.000 You know, what does that have?

00:26:54.000 Phosphorophane?

00:26:55.000 What is it?

00:26:56.000 What is the word?

00:26:59.000 I can't remember the beneficial something.

00:27:02.000 No, phonosynthesis is how they convert sunlight into food.

00:27:07.000 But like when you're doing good stress, like exercise and sulfuraphane?

00:27:12.000 Is that what it is?

00:27:13.000 Yeah, I think you just said it as I was.

00:27:15.000 I think that's the word.

00:27:16.000 I think it's sulfuraphane.

00:27:17.000 Is that it right there on the screen?

00:27:19.000 Sulfuraphane.

00:27:20.000 Yeah, sulfuraphane.

00:27:21.000 A plant compound formed when you chew or chop broccoli sprouts, which activates an enzyme that converts a precursor called glucoraphanin into sulfuraphane.

00:27:33.000 Broccoli sprouts have far higher levels of glucorafanin glucorafanin in mature than mature broccoli, which is why they are such a concentrated source of sulfuraphane.

00:27:47.000 So you're eating the plant stress.

00:27:49.000 That's well, plants do release chemicals. 0.85

00:27:53.000 You want to hear a crazy one?

00:27:54.000 This is really nuts.

00:27:55.000 Plants are intelligent in some sort of a weird way.

00:27:58.000 And one of the things they found is that if, like, say if a giraffe is eating certain bushes and they're eating them upwind, and so the wind comes down and the other plants recognize that they're being consumed, and so they change their chemical profile to make them disgusting.

00:28:17.000 It starts tasting bad.

00:28:17.000 Horses, same thing.

00:28:18.000 Horses will all be grazing in one place and then they'll just pivot out of nowhere and you're like, what's going on?

00:28:22.000 And they'll move to different grass.

00:28:24.000 Yeah, it's like the grass realizes that it's happening.

00:28:27.000 Oh my God, it's a grass apocalypse.

00:28:28.000 And like lets off some kind of acid or something.

00:28:31.000 Nuts?

00:28:32.000 So this is the argument against consuming plants that all the carnivore people use is that there's these chemicals.

00:28:32.000 Wild.

00:28:39.000 Like find out what the chemicals they talk about.

00:28:41.000 What are the chemicals that carnivore diet people think are dangerous from plants?

00:28:48.000 The idea is that plants can't defend themselves.

00:28:51.000 They're stationary.

00:28:52.000 And so what they do is they release things that make them disgusting.

00:28:55.000 Got it.

00:28:56.000 It makes sense.

00:28:57.000 It is like, you know, after having, being pregnant, I kind of just surrendered to being like, what if I just ate what I craved?

00:29:06.000 Like, let me just let my body wisdom or whatever, like kind of go, you know, and it was sourdough bread, not regular bread, just sourdough, which I wonder if that's allowed on the pyramid.

00:29:16.000 It's a lot better for you.

00:29:17.000 Yeah.

00:29:17.000 Right?

00:29:18.000 Sourdough bread, eggs, and meat, no salad.

00:29:22.000 Like it made me like nauseous to like even think about salad.

00:29:25.000 But maybe that was just my blood type or whatever it was.

00:29:28.000 My wife was really into frozen pizza rolls, those little disgusting things. 1.00

00:29:32.000 I would buy them for her.

00:29:33.000 I'm like, are you shit?

00:29:34.000 That is a Texas bitch, like through and through. 1.00

00:29:37.000 Carnivore diet advocates often argue that many common plant compounds are toxic or anti-nutrients that harm digestion hormones and or nutrient absorption.

00:29:49.000 Carnivore influence usually group these under umbrella.

00:29:51.000 Anti-nutrients or plant defense chemicals.

00:29:54.000 Oxalates is one for sure.

00:29:56.000 Oxalates is terrible for you.

00:29:58.000 But the way to get around that is cooking them.

00:30:02.000 So like this is like I used to, I used to always drink kale smoothies.

00:30:07.000 I used to take kale and throw it in there with garlic and ginger and drink a smoothie every day.

00:30:11.000 Then you left LA.

00:30:13.000 No, I mean I felt fine doing it.

00:30:16.000 I never got kidney stones or anything like that.

00:30:17.000 But then I started reading about oxalates and then I had a bunch of people on that told me that you can get kidney stones.

00:30:23.000 And I did actually get my blood work done and it was high in oxalates.

00:30:26.000 But also that's from almonds.

00:30:28.000 I eat a lot of, I used to eat a lot of almonds.

00:30:31.000 Lectins, grains, beans, nuts, there it is, promote leaky gut, autoimmunity, and general gut irritation.

00:30:39.000 Phytates, what is that?

00:30:41.000 Phytic acid, grains, legumes, and nuts, criticized for binding materials and reducing their absorption, tannins or other polyphenols described by some meat advocates as additional plant defenses that can inhibit nutrient absorption or act as pro-oxidants.

00:31:00.000 But one of the things that I've heard from people that are pretty knowledgeable is that the issue might not be the actual plants itself.

00:31:08.000 It might be pesticides.

00:31:09.000 That's the other thing.

00:31:10.000 They say the worst thing you can eat at a restaurant anywhere is salads because it's just covered in pesticides.

00:31:14.000 Like I am washing my fruit and vegetables more than I wash my own body.

00:31:20.000 See if this is true because I read this, that 100% of all California wines tested positive for glyphosate.

00:31:28.000 And out in Malibu, Raytheon, because there was a Raytheon plant.

00:31:32.000 Oh, yeah.

00:31:33.000 Oh, yeah.

00:31:33.000 Uh-huh.

00:31:34.000 Yeah.

00:31:35.000 Yeah.

00:31:35.000 And come, actually.

00:31:36.000 Rocket dying.

00:31:37.000 Yeah, I guess.

00:31:38.000 Just to be in my neighborhood.

00:31:39.000 Wild.

00:31:40.000 Yeah.

00:31:40.000 I wonder if I got juiced up.

00:31:42.000 Remember when I went out and before I had a kid and I was just fighting people over rescuing giraffes?

00:31:47.000 I had an instinct to mother and I was just mothering everything except an actual baby, including giraffes. 0.83

00:31:53.000 And the wine that was made up there at that place, Malibu Safari, I tested positive for Raytheon and people were getting sick.

00:31:58.000 For Raytheon?

00:31:59.000 How do you test positive for Raytheon?

00:32:00.000 Like the Raytheon.

00:32:03.000 Okay, they tested 10.

00:32:04.000 And a 2016 investigation by ABC7 News Beyond Pesticides reported that 10 out of 10 California wines tested positive for glyphosate.

00:32:14.000 Whoa.

00:32:16.000 That's nuts.

00:32:17.000 I'm obsessed with these sort of health and wellness sort of myths.

00:32:21.000 And where do they like wine's good?

00:32:23.000 Red wine's good for you.

00:32:25.000 Like what alcoholic made that popular?

00:32:28.000 Remember, it's like it's got resveratrol.

00:32:30.000 It's this.

00:32:30.000 It's like the amount you would need to get the amount of resveratrol that would make a difference is would kill your liver anyway.

00:32:36.000 But like dark chocolate's good for you.

00:32:38.000 Like these things we just laugh at.

00:32:39.000 I think dark chocolate is good for you though.

00:32:41.000 Is it?

00:32:42.000 Yeah.

00:32:42.000 I think that's legit.

00:32:43.000 I don't think wine is necessarily bad for you.

00:32:45.000 I think alcohol is bad for you.

00:32:47.000 But I think it also loosens you up and makes you happy, which is better for you than being sad, depending on where you are, right?

00:32:54.000 So if you were with a group of people, like you and I and a bunch of friends went out to dinner, we all had wine, we're laughing our asses off, that would probably be really good for you.

00:33:01.000 And it removes a little bit of the ability to, and that was always my thing.

00:33:04.000 Like I don't, I'm three, three and a half years off pretty much anything.

00:33:08.000 I have a kid.

00:33:08.000 I mean, I was pregnant.

00:33:09.000 Like, you know, I got to be focused.

00:33:10.000 Like a toddler is just like suicidal.

00:33:12.000 Like, I'm, you know.

00:33:13.000 But, you know, I think with at least I'll just speak for myself, my brain, a glass of wine, I'm just able to be present without going, is this a good joke?

00:33:21.000 Which I write about.

00:33:22.000 It just takes off that like sort of like interior anthropologist narrative that is like, I always have to be categorizing things and filing things as jokes or cross-referencing things and you know, filing things away for future stand-up.

00:33:36.000 And I think that's the thing, right?

00:33:37.000 It's because you always need new jokes.

00:33:39.000 It's like you're always farming.

00:33:41.000 And when you hear something that's like, oh, that'd be such a good premise, it's like, oh, you know, sometimes I'll just like do what you do.

00:33:47.000 I'll put it in notes to just file it away just so that I'm not thinking about it so much.

00:33:50.000 But that's the only thing that keeps me sane.

00:33:52.000 Because if I don't do that, if I don't, it's going to get away from me.

00:33:56.000 Same.

00:33:56.000 I have to.

00:33:58.000 At least my family knows.

00:33:59.000 Like sometimes I'll jump up from the dinner table and I have to run away because I know it's slippery.

00:34:03.000 I'm like, this idea is slippery.

00:34:04.000 I'll be right back.

00:34:04.000 I got an idea.

00:34:05.000 Let me just write it down.

00:34:06.000 Let me just write it down.

00:34:06.000 I have to write it down and I come back and I don't tell them the idea because it's usually they're like, what?

00:34:10.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:34:11.000 Trust me, it's going to sound bad now.

00:34:12.000 No.

00:34:13.000 Okay, Jews, Jews do run the meat. 1.00

00:34:16.000 Just let me flesh it out.

00:34:18.000 This idea about Jews and blacks. 0.99

00:34:21.000 But yeah, as long as I'm able to write it down, then I can be present.

00:34:24.000 Then you know you saved it.

00:34:26.000 Neil Brennan used to say that his joke book was basically like a net for catching ideas.

00:34:32.000 Love it.

00:34:33.000 I have one.

00:34:34.000 Great idea.

00:34:34.000 Great premise.

00:34:35.000 Promise.

00:34:35.000 I have a joke.

00:34:36.000 I'll write it down in my notebook, but I'll, of course, leave it somewhere and it just looks like my suicide note.

00:34:41.000 It's just like words.

00:34:42.000 It's just like Kegel's, you know, episiotomy. 0.68

00:34:45.000 Like it's just crazy words.

00:34:47.000 But, and that's the other thing that I think having a kid gave me that I didn't even know was possible, which is what I thought like weed or, you know, a glass of wine or whatever before was I've always just been trying to figure out how to get present, like be in the present moment, you know?

00:35:02.000 Which, by the way, is there a biological basis for being in the present moment?

00:35:05.000 Probably it's probably, you know, was a detriment back in the day.

00:35:10.000 You wanted to be like two stabs ahead, or this is what just happened.

00:35:12.000 And like eating that berry was bad.

00:35:14.000 Like being in the present moment probably got you killed back then.

00:35:16.000 That's what they think ADHD is about.

00:35:18.000 It's about being a persistent hunter.

00:35:20.000 We have a problem with the software that we're running and perhaps maybe the computer.

00:35:25.000 So the last few episodes.

00:35:27.000 Jamie, please cut my audio.

00:35:28.000 Reddit will love this episode.

00:35:31.000 They don't love it anymore.

00:35:32.000 Cut me out of it.

00:35:34.000 There's a bunch of people I'd like to see naked.

00:35:39.000 All of you negative Reddit commenters, like you guys need to go outside.

00:35:44.000 Touch grass, babes.

00:35:45.000 I look at those guys and I'm always just guys, girls, whoever are.

00:35:47.000 Like, I meant I got one right up, but like, they're non-binary. 0.99

00:35:50.000 All of them.

00:35:51.000 I always think, like, if we didn't get to do what we do, would we be doing that?

00:35:55.000 I would.

00:35:55.000 100%.

00:35:56.000 I would say that, like, when people are really mean to celebrities online in comments, I'm like, I would do that.

00:36:02.000 1,000 one million percent.

00:36:04.000 If I was 16 years old and I had a fucking Twitter account, and they have a plane.

00:36:08.000 Yeah.

00:36:09.000 Yeah, fuck you.

00:36:09.000 Just like, hey, asshole.

00:36:10.000 Like, yeah.

00:36:11.000 Oh, yeah.

00:36:11.000 I'd be going after everybody.

00:36:14.000 I would 100%.

00:36:15.000 That was all, especially if I get them to respond.

00:36:17.000 Right.

00:36:17.000 I'd be like, woo-wee, I got him on the hook.

00:36:21.000 Look at this.

00:36:21.000 And then, like, Kimmel would like read negative comments on his show.

00:36:24.000 Like, you can get on a show.

00:36:26.000 Which is, by the way, what's happening with like crowd work.

00:36:28.000 People come to shows now trying to get in a crowd work video.

00:36:31.000 Just heckling it, you know.

00:36:33.000 Yeah.

00:36:33.000 Especially if someone is known for responding to hecklers.

00:36:37.000 The first four rows are people that are like in hair and makeup.

00:36:37.000 Oh, no.

00:36:40.000 They have like hats on, like, their tips are out.

00:36:42.000 Like, they're ready with.

00:36:42.000 They're like, hey, bitch.

00:36:44.000 And I'm like, I'm not filming this show, guys.

00:36:47.000 Sorry.

00:36:48.000 People just want to be a part of something.

00:36:50.000 Do you want to know where I'm from?

00:36:51.000 It's like, I don't.

00:36:52.000 I don't care.

00:36:53.000 I'm in Austin.

00:36:54.000 I don't give a shit.

00:36:54.000 I know you live.

00:36:55.000 Well, that's the weird thing about social media and the internet in general is that everyone has a voice now, which is great.

00:37:01.000 And it's also terrible.

00:37:02.000 It's both things.

00:37:02.000 Yeah.

00:37:03.000 It's great because some people emerge from that voice.

00:37:06.000 Just like we were talking about memes.

00:37:08.000 Some of the hardest laughs that I get during the day are these memes that anonymous people have created and someone sends me.

00:37:16.000 Same.

00:37:17.000 And I'm like, same.

00:37:18.000 And then I send them to people.

00:37:20.000 Oh, who the fuck made it?

00:37:21.000 Can we pause one second again?

00:37:22.000 It's now not recording the audio, even though we can hear everything.

00:37:26.000 It just stopped all of a sudden.

00:37:27.000 Did it record any of what we just said?

00:37:28.000 Because that was fucking good.

00:37:30.000 It is still going.

00:37:30.000 Oh, it is still going.

00:37:31.000 It's still not fucked up.

00:37:32.000 I'm going to trust it.

00:37:33.000 It's just not visually showing up.

00:37:35.000 Oh, boy.

00:37:35.000 We'll trust it.

00:37:36.000 Having a conversation about being in the present moment.

00:37:36.000 Sorry.

00:37:38.000 No, like, wait, you didn't record that.

00:37:40.000 Good, I was being so present.

00:37:40.000 Yeah.

00:37:43.000 Damn it.

00:37:44.000 I have to.

00:37:46.000 I think, you know, we're in this weird transitionary period where we have a new technology and that allows everyone to have a voice.

00:37:53.000 And I think overall, it's very good because you have more voices.

00:37:57.000 And it's just people have to discern what's a valuable voice and what's not.

00:38:01.000 And, you know, that's where I tell people, don't read the fucking comments.

00:38:05.000 It's not good for you because you're getting too many non-valuable voices.

00:38:09.000 And if you've done a good job of curating your environment and curating your friend group, you've eliminated all these people that are really shitty and bitter and jealous and nasty.

00:38:20.000 And also, like, have no ability to look at themselves.

00:38:26.000 Yeah.

00:38:26.000 But also, like, to all my, like, I was just on did Norman's podcast with Sam Murrell and they were talking about the comments.

00:38:31.000 And I was like, guys, like, I've said worse things to you than any of these comments.

00:38:36.000 Like, more comics.

00:38:37.000 We all sit around and are so much meaner to each other.

00:38:40.000 Oh, cool.

00:38:41.000 And you're meaner about other comics.

00:38:42.000 You're not there.

00:38:43.000 Oh, God.

00:38:44.000 They're the worst shit ever.

00:38:45.000 Totally.

00:38:45.000 It's just sort of like, nothing in this comment section is worse than what Tony Hinchliff just said to me on the phone.

00:38:52.000 I know we're conversation.

00:38:53.000 I know you laughed.

00:38:54.000 I just talked to Tim Dylan for an hour.

00:38:56.000 Like, I have no self-esteem left.

00:38:58.000 Like, this is like a warm hug.

00:38:59.000 Like, my comment section is where I go for compliments at this point.

00:39:02.000 Sometimes I forget that when I'm hanging out with Normies, you know, and I'll just drop a bomb.

00:39:10.000 Look at their face like, what the fuck did you say?

00:39:13.000 I'm like, I thought we were talking shit.

00:39:15.000 No, I don't.

00:39:16.000 No, I did that yesterday.

00:39:19.000 I was checking into the hotel and we're in Texas.

00:39:21.000 My mom's from Texas, whatever. 0.78

00:39:23.000 And this dude that works there was wearing like cowboy boots, like solid cowboy boots.

00:39:28.000 And I was like, oh, sick cowboy boots.

00:39:30.000 Like, they're just high heels for men, but like, cool that you guys call them, like, cowboy boots.

00:39:34.000 Right.

00:39:34.000 And he was just like, and I was like, oh, you, you're going to fight me.

00:39:38.000 Like, this is not.

00:39:40.000 I can say that to like Tony Hingecliffe because I'm always like, yeah, you moved to Texas so that you could wear heels.

00:39:44.000 Like, so they crazy wearing cowboy boots all the time.

00:39:48.000 He was going through a period of time where he's wearing nothing but cowboy hats and cowboy boots on stage.

00:39:53.000 Dude, and then like a Gucci, like, like track suit.

00:39:58.000 Like, name a person that knew less about what to do with their money.

00:40:03.000 You tell me what he's doing now.

00:40:04.000 He's wearing vests.

00:40:06.000 He wears vests all the time.

00:40:08.000 It's a thousand degrees of vest.

00:40:09.000 Bulletproof vest after the he was at the Trump rally.

00:40:12.000 Smart.

00:40:13.000 So the Puerto Ricans have guns, homie. 1.00

00:40:15.000 The Puerto Ricans love him.

00:40:16.000 They love him.

00:40:16.000 Yeah, they do.

00:40:17.000 If there's any group of people that are great at talking shit, it's Puerto Ricans. 1.00

00:40:20.000 It's like Jennifer Lopez cut to her like crying because she's like, what are jokes? 0.77

00:40:24.000 But yeah, I love.

00:40:25.000 She doesn't count.

00:40:26.000 So I, have you made your will?

00:40:29.000 Oh, yeah.

00:40:30.000 So I'm making my will, which as soon as you have a kid, they're like, make a will or else your craziest family member is going to like get your son, you know?

00:40:30.000 Okay.

00:40:38.000 And I have him.

00:40:39.000 And I, am I allowed to make a fun?

00:40:42.000 Like, I want to make like a funny will.

00:40:44.000 Like, I want to give Brian Holtzman like a million dollars just to see what he'll do.

00:40:50.000 Just to look down from heaven and just see him with like how do you buy suspenders or something?

00:40:53.000 Just calf implants.

00:40:55.000 Like just like seeing what Tony did with his money, like watching all these comics.

00:40:59.000 Like Bobby Lee, he just like shows up in like women's shoes. 0.99

00:41:03.000 Like he'll just be in like, you know, those like golden goose sneakers.

00:41:06.000 They're like $700.

00:41:07.000 They're bedazzled.

00:41:08.000 He wears bedazzled sneakers.

00:41:10.000 Well, they're like golden goose.

00:41:11.000 Do you know these shoes?

00:41:12.000 Yeah, I have a pair of golden goose.

00:41:14.000 Yeah, but they're like shimmery with like leper. 1.00

00:41:17.000 It's weird because golden goose, they come out worn out.

00:41:20.000 Like you buy, I bought them in Aspen.

00:41:22.000 You buy them worn out and everybody was really into it.

00:41:22.000 Yeah.

00:41:25.000 I'm like, they're already pre-worn.

00:41:26.000 Like this is weird.

00:41:27.000 It's like when you did like bought jeans with holes in them.

00:41:30.000 Like ahead of time.

00:41:30.000 Right.

00:41:31.000 I never did that, by the way.

00:41:32.000 Yeah.

00:41:33.000 That's a lie.

00:41:33.000 No, that's not.

00:41:34.000 I did it for a while and then I was like, what is wrong with you?

00:41:36.000 Yeah.

00:41:37.000 But I like holes in the knees because you can move around more.

00:41:42.000 Like that's actually useful.

00:41:43.000 I'll always cut holes.

00:41:44.000 Oh, you need to buy like stretchy jeans.

00:41:46.000 You know what?

00:41:47.000 I did start buying stretchy jeans and this is actually the worst thing I've done since becoming a mom.

00:41:51.000 You just become such a dork.

00:41:52.000 Except your wife.

00:41:52.000 Your wife is just like, she's like my hero.

00:41:54.000 I'm like, how do you stay?

00:41:56.000 Why are you so hot?

00:41:57.000 Like you're my mom.

00:41:57.000 You're like allowed to just look like Rachel Maddow, but you do this.

00:42:01.000 Like I need to get back on the horse because I started buying sweatpants that look like jeans.

00:42:06.000 And I'm just like, what am I doing?

00:42:07.000 Like it's just.

00:42:08.000 Well, there's a bunch of jeans like that that you can get now.

00:42:11.000 Oh, they're called Perfect Jeans.

00:42:11.000 What are those?

00:42:13.000 Those are really good.

00:42:14.000 I got a few pairs of those.

00:42:16.000 I think that's what they're called, right?

00:42:17.000 Perfect jeans?

00:42:20.000 Like stretchy guys?

00:42:22.000 Yeah, those are great.

00:42:23.000 Revtown.

00:42:24.000 Revtown makes a great pair.

00:42:25.000 They're great.

00:42:26.000 Barbell, barbell jeans. 0.83

00:42:28.000 They're nice.

00:42:29.000 Yeah, they're made for people with big thighs. 1.00

00:42:31.000 Yeah.

00:42:32.000 Because my jeans wear out in the middle because my thighs are always rubbing together.

00:42:37.000 Oh, like in the way you tear open.

00:42:37.000 Right.

00:42:40.000 Yeah.

00:42:41.000 Yeah.

00:42:42.000 And I need to be straight.

00:42:43.000 I need to, I can't wear something that I can't kick somebody in.

00:42:46.000 But also, fuck yes.

00:42:48.000 Fuck.

00:42:51.000 So good to be in Texas where the real men are. 0.95

00:42:52.000 That's how they think.

00:42:54.000 My fiancé's.

00:42:55.000 I was thinking like that always.

00:42:56.000 All your whole life.

00:42:57.000 It's so funny.

00:42:57.000 My fiancé is like, he's just, you don't realize till you date a very straight guy that you've only dated gay guys.

00:43:05.000 Like I always was like, oh, good, metrosexual.

00:43:08.000 Like my dude, my favorite thing to do is ask him what he's thinking about.

00:43:11.000 Not like when you're thinking about like hoping it's me or like our wedding or something, I'm just like fascinated.

00:43:16.000 I'm on the edge of my seat.

00:43:17.000 And it's usually like, if I could fight that guy.

00:43:20.000 Or the Roman Empire.

00:43:21.000 Yeah.

00:43:22.000 My God, dude.

00:43:26.000 Just like jerking off, thinking about tigers tearing apart criminals.

00:43:30.000 Like, what about the Roman Empire exactly?

00:43:32.000 That's so crazy when you think about it.

00:43:34.000 I mean, didn't, didn't species go extinct because of the Roman Empire.

00:43:38.000 Because of the Coliseum fights.

00:43:40.000 I don't believe that's true.

00:43:41.000 I've never heard that.

00:43:42.000 When I did like a tour of it, they said that, but I'm sure they were just trying to.

00:43:46.000 Yeah, they're trying to juice you up.

00:43:47.000 Well, let's find out.

00:43:48.000 Even if they did, how could they prove it?

00:43:50.000 I guess it's well, they don't really.

00:43:51.000 There's a lot of like speculation that's probably erroneous about why certain animals went extinct, including woolly mammoths.

00:43:59.000 Also, there's a lot of animals out there that maybe you guys can't find.

00:44:02.000 We don't know.

00:44:03.000 Oh, yeah.

00:44:03.000 We don't know.

00:44:04.000 Like, oh, okay.

00:44:06.000 Not to bring up California, but have you seen this doomsday fish?

00:44:10.000 What's that?

00:44:10.000 It's a fish that only appears when an earthquake's about to happen.

00:44:13.000 Oh, great.

00:44:14.000 And they're coming up around Monterey in California.

00:44:17.000 It's like, it's like a syringe with fins.

00:44:20.000 Really?

00:44:21.000 You know, these like fish at the bottom, bottom of the ocean that we're going to be.

00:44:24.000 Oh, and they're getting away from the bottom because they've got coming up to the surface or something.

00:44:30.000 I've never heard of this before.

00:44:31.000 But my brain also goes, like, maybe they've been around and you just haven't seen them.

00:44:34.000 That's true.

00:44:35.000 It's not like we have cameras down there talking about it.

00:44:37.000 At all times, yeah.

00:44:39.000 Coliseum animal fights did not clearly drive any species to global extinction, but they did help wipe out or severely reduce some regional populations and subspecies.

00:44:48.000 Like what?

00:44:50.000 Beast hunts killed animals on a huge scale.

00:44:52.000 Ancient sources describe thousands of animals killed in single festivals and tens of thousands over imperial reigns.

00:44:59.000 Modern historians argue that this sustained demand contributed to local or regional disappearances, especially when combined with hunting, habitat loss, and warfare.

00:45:09.000 Well, that, like, just what they did in America with market hunting, they almost wiped out everything in America because no one had ice, right?

00:45:20.000 So you had to get meat every day.

00:45:21.000 So they wiped out almost all deer.

00:45:24.000 They wiped out elk from elk used to be in all 50 states, and now they're only in a few.

00:45:29.000 They wiped out almost all of them.

00:45:31.000 And this is fascinating to me.

00:45:34.000 Just the Roman Coliseum thing, because I think that my brain always does, whenever it's like, can you believe people in the comments are trashing Sabrina Carp or whatever?

00:45:42.000 It's like, yeah, people used to go watch, you know, people have their limbs torn apart by lions and sit there and like cheer and suggest they would yell out how to kill people like that.

00:45:53.000 You know, they would go watch at the town square people get hanged.

00:45:56.000 Like, this is right on time.

00:45:57.000 They'd watch people have sword fights.

00:45:59.000 This is the most humane version of publicly shaming people we've done thus far.

00:46:04.000 It's just like, you suck.

00:46:05.000 Like, that's like it just hurts your feelings.

00:46:08.000 Right.

00:46:08.000 Yeah.

00:46:08.000 And it only hurts your feelings if you read it.

00:46:10.000 But I also don't think anyone has only made a comment on Joe Rogan's or only on mine.

00:46:14.000 I don't think it's like just personal.

00:46:16.000 Well, there's probably one schizophrenic person that just concentrates on you.

00:46:19.000 Yeah.

00:46:19.000 Oh, no.

00:46:19.000 I have many of those.

00:46:20.000 Yeah.

00:46:21.000 But there's most people are just.

00:46:23.000 But I don't think they're normal with everyone else.

00:46:26.000 And then, you know.

00:46:27.000 Well, that's the argument that some people have that I completely disagree with, that you should, it should be your name.

00:46:33.000 Everyone should know who's posting that.

00:46:36.000 And that you shouldn't be allowed to post anonymously.

00:46:38.000 My problem with that is that eliminates all whistleblowing.

00:46:42.000 You know, you're working at some defense contractor and you know they're doing something horrible or whatever.

00:46:42.000 Oh, good point.

00:46:48.000 You're working for some oil company and you know they're doing something evil.

00:46:51.000 No, you can't, you can't have completely anonymous.

00:46:56.000 I mean, you can't have only like recognized accounts where you know the exact person who's posting things because sometimes you need to have anonymous sources.

00:47:06.000 But also, it's, you know, essentially, like I'm always interested in, you know, finding the like equanimous real-life version of something digital.

00:47:16.000 So it's like negative things in the comment section.

00:47:18.000 That's like being in a football game and someone being like, Tom Brady, you suck.

00:47:22.000 Like, he obviously doesn't suck.

00:47:24.000 You're wearing the same thing.

00:47:24.000 Right.

00:47:25.000 You're wearing a Patriots jersey.

00:47:26.000 Like, you obviously love him.

00:47:27.000 You're just like being an idiot.

00:47:28.000 You know, it's kind of like.

00:47:29.000 How about UFC fans?

00:47:31.000 Some of them are the worst.

00:47:32.000 They're like, he's a pussy. 1.00

00:47:33.000 Is he?

00:47:34.000 He fights for a lot of people.

00:47:36.000 Yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:47:36.000 You know what I mean?

00:47:37.000 He fights in his underwear barefoot in a fucking cage for a living.

00:47:41.000 And you're calling him a pussy.

00:47:42.000 That's right.

00:47:42.000 People, I mean, and also think about what it would take for you to stop and leave a shitty comment.

00:47:46.000 You would have to be in such a dark, dark place to like need to just throw a stray at someone.

00:47:52.000 And like, I like to think of it as like a weird service.

00:47:55.000 And maybe this is just me trying to like sublimate it into something positive because being a female comedian on the internet, it's like pretty wild. 0.89

00:48:00.000 And it's like I signed up to make people happy or make people laugh or give people some kind of escape from their life.

00:48:08.000 And if you hating me or saying some mean shit gives you like a hit of like, great.

00:48:13.000 I don't think I came into comedy being like, everyone has to love me.

00:48:17.000 Like that's not possible.

00:48:18.000 Yeah.

00:48:19.000 People hate Chappelle.

00:48:21.000 It's literally not possible.

00:48:22.000 The people I know that take the biggest risks and that, you know, are polarizing.

00:48:25.000 Like I think the most interesting comics are polarizing.

00:48:27.000 So if everyone liked me, I'd probably be pretty boring.

00:48:29.000 And well, there's a few people that don't take risks that are hilarious that aren't polarizing at all, like Nate Bargaza.

00:48:35.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:36.000 Or Gaffigan, but Sebastian.

00:48:39.000 But Gaffigan got really polarizing when he went political.

00:48:42.000 A lot of people got mad at him for that.

00:48:43.000 That's right.

00:48:44.000 But I think he was drunk.

00:48:45.000 Oh, interesting.

00:48:46.000 He did a pretty sure he was drunk.

00:48:51.000 He likes to throw him back.

00:48:53.000 Was he doing online, though?

00:48:54.000 Wasn't he like doing online?

00:48:55.000 Or was he doing it live?

00:48:57.000 Oh, he was on Twitter.

00:48:58.000 Oh, he was on Twitter.

00:48:59.000 During the Trump.

00:49:00.000 That's right.

00:49:00.000 I remember.

00:49:01.000 He went crazy and he lost like a giant chunk of fans.

00:49:03.000 People turned on him.

00:49:06.000 You know, he's the hot pockets guy.

00:49:08.000 He's like involved in politics.

00:49:08.000 That's right.

00:49:11.000 It's interesting when that kind of thing.

00:49:13.000 I think that as a comic, like it's, you know, and you do something sort of different here, but I never, you know, to take a side just feels so weird.

00:49:23.000 It just feels so bizarre because I think it's really our job to be able to defend the indefensible, just even as an exercise and to, you know, to be able to deeply believe that two things can be true at once.

00:49:33.000 I think it's the opposite of what wokeys do with animals. 0.99

00:49:37.000 So with wokeys, with animals, they're like, adopt, don't shop. 1.00

00:49:42.000 I think with your ideas, you should shop around.

00:49:46.000 Don't adopt. 0.91

00:49:47.000 Don't adopt like all the ideas that the left has or all the ideas that the right has.

00:49:53.000 Shop around.

00:49:54.000 Also, breeders are bad.

00:49:55.000 So rescue a dog from a breeder if you need to.

00:49:58.000 Right.

00:49:59.000 Well, some look, breeders are bad, right?

00:50:01.000 Okay.

00:50:02.000 I have the best fucking dog in the world, and he came from a breeder.

00:50:05.000 Some are good, some are bad.

00:50:06.000 Some rescues are good.

00:50:07.000 Some of the worst people on earth are animal rescue people.

00:50:10.000 Some of the worst people on earth work in charities, you know?

00:50:13.000 That's a fact.

00:50:15.000 Did you see the data about the LA fire money and where it went?

00:50:22.000 Did you see the data of the whole?

00:50:23.000 What was it?

00:50:24.000 How many billion was supposed to be spent on homelessness removal?

00:50:27.000 24.

00:50:29.000 It's unaccounted for.

00:50:30.000 I'm not even mad.

00:50:30.000 Just tell me where it is.

00:50:31.000 How do you even hide that much money?

00:50:33.000 How do you even hide it?

00:50:34.000 But I want to show you this.

00:50:36.000 Did I ever send it to you, Jamie?

00:50:38.000 I don't know.

00:50:39.000 I know I saved it because it's so crazy.

00:50:42.000 It was like there was a concert.

00:50:43.000 It was like $100 million.

00:50:45.000 But where it went is literally absolutely nuts.

00:50:50.000 I'm going to find it.

00:50:51.000 Oh, and Jamie, did you find that doomsday fish?

00:50:54.000 I just want to make sure.

00:50:56.000 I saw an article about it from 20 couple years ago that said it shows up on a row.

00:51:00.000 Doomsday Fish?

00:51:01.000 Yeah.

00:51:02.000 There was one up in Monterey, they said, that came.

00:51:06.000 I'm obsessed with the fish that we don't know about.

00:51:08.000 Okay, I just sent it to you, Jamie.

00:51:10.000 So the House Judiciary Committee released a report on the LA Fire Aid concert.

00:51:17.000 Among the findings, FireAid was used.

00:51:20.000 I mean, this is going to.

00:51:22.000 I'm sorry.

00:51:23.000 I don't know why I'm coughing.

00:51:24.000 FireAid was used for activities such as voter participation initiatives, podcasts.

00:51:29.000 They give $100,000 to podcasters.

00:51:31.000 Approximately $550,000 in donations went to organizations involved in political.

00:51:37.000 Well, that's money laundering.

00:51:39.000 That's just money laundering.

00:51:40.000 $550,000 out of $100 million.

00:51:43.000 $250,000 was directed towards programs beneficing undocumented immigrants.

00:51:50.000 Look at this.

00:51:51.000 $100,000 to podcasters.

00:51:53.000 I want to know who the fuck the podcasters were that got $100,000.

00:51:56.000 Yeah, what are you talking about?

00:51:57.000 Like, what does that mean?

00:51:58.000 Like, did they prevent fires with that money?

00:52:00.000 $500,000 was used to cover salaries, bonuses.

00:52:04.000 Imagine you got a bonus because there was a fire.

00:52:06.000 Consultant fees for nonprofits.

00:52:08.000 But if it's a nonprofit, why are you giving it money?

00:52:11.000 And why are you giving them bonuses?

00:52:13.000 Half a million dollars.

00:52:14.000 Okay.

00:52:15.000 Many worthy nonprofits did receive grants that were used to support victims.

00:52:19.000 This report provides lessons for the distribution of, or the disbursement rather, of any remaining fire aid funds.

00:52:26.000 Go down lower because it can be a good thing.

00:52:27.000 It's a good racket.

00:52:28.000 Everyone I know that works with a charity has like two houses.

00:52:30.000 Like, good for them because they don't have to pay taxes either.

00:52:33.000 There's sorry, there's more where they laid all this stuff out.

00:52:37.000 So this is Kevin Kiley, who is, what is his congressman from California.

00:52:43.000 So he's outlining this because he tried to look it up.

00:52:46.000 It's fucking crazy.

00:52:50.000 But I mean, some of that is fucking criminal.

00:52:53.000 This one drives me nuts.

00:52:54.000 Organizations involved in political advocacy, half a fucking million dollars.

00:53:01.000 Why is anyone advocating for politics?

00:53:03.000 Like, what does that even mean?

00:53:04.000 It's just stealing money.

00:53:05.000 That's right.

00:53:05.000 That's just money laundering.

00:53:07.000 That's just stealing money. 0.67

00:53:08.000 Wait, fungus planting projects.

00:53:10.000 What?

00:53:11.000 To plant fungus.

00:53:13.000 Fungus planting policy.

00:53:15.000 Fungus planting projects.

00:53:15.000 What?

00:53:18.000 They're growing weed.

00:53:19.000 They're growing mushrooms.

00:53:19.000 Yeah.

00:53:20.000 That's right.

00:53:20.000 They're growing.

00:53:21.000 The best way to get people from.

00:53:24.000 This is what it is, dude.

00:53:25.000 It's like literally like everyone that's pissed that their house caught on fire, take these mushrooms.

00:53:29.000 And you will realize materialism doesn't.

00:53:31.000 It's all bullshit.

00:53:32.000 Yeah.

00:53:33.000 It's part of the universe, man.

00:53:34.000 We're all connected.

00:53:35.000 Like, if someone else has a house, you have a house too.

00:53:38.000 This is the universe telling you to get the fuck out of here.

00:53:40.000 I mean, it is like a lot to process.

00:53:44.000 I mean, there's a point where you're kind of like, my brain goes, like, when there's nothing you can do about it, you're like, what do I do?

00:53:52.000 Like, do I just get mad?

00:53:54.000 Do I just look away?

00:53:55.000 Do I become the person that's retweeting shit and just being that person?

00:53:59.000 Like, you know, the things we have to kind of just decide with our economy of bandwidth what to be outraged about.

00:54:06.000 And maybe this is it.

00:54:06.000 The idea is like, we'll throw so much at you that you'll just get exhausted.

00:54:10.000 And this episode is brought to you by Athletic Brewing Company.

00:54:14.000 So here we are.

00:54:14.000 It's the new year, which means it's about time to hit reset.

00:55:11.000 Athletic Brewing Company, fit for all times.

00:55:15.000 I don't think it's a plan.

00:55:16.000 I think it's just a function of the whole social media ecosystem.

00:55:23.000 But also they're like, we know we're going to get away with this.

00:55:25.000 Like, I just love it.

00:55:26.000 But they're not because this guy, the congressman is looking it up.

00:55:29.000 It's going to, they're definitely going to talk about it.

00:55:32.000 It's going to be a problem for these people.

00:55:33.000 It's going to be a problem during reelection, and it's supposed to be.

00:55:37.000 They're monsters.

00:55:38.000 These people are evil.

00:55:39.000 They're really evil.

00:55:41.000 Like, what they're doing is stealing money from people that decided they were going to donate money because they thought it was a worthy cause, and it wasn't a worthy cause.

00:55:49.000 And also, when those fires happened, the idea that it was like, donate, it's like, well, you were just in a fire zone too.

00:55:55.000 We pay enough taxes in California to not have to have charities to donate to fire victims.

00:56:01.000 Right.

00:56:01.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:56:03.000 Charities are such a scam because it's like, well, no, this is where our taxes should be going to stuff.

00:56:07.000 We shouldn't have to have these charities where people are donating money to help people.

00:56:11.000 Well, it's a scam.

00:56:11.000 They don't have money either.

00:56:12.000 And when you find out where the money actually goes, that's when it becomes a scam when you find out that the vast amount.

00:56:18.000 Like, if you have $100 million that gets donated to a legitimate charity, it's very likely that only 30% or less is going to the actual cause.

00:56:27.000 And that person doesn't pay taxes on top of that because the charity is a tax write-off.

00:56:31.000 So my taxes aren't going to pay for that cause.

00:56:34.000 And then you're not paying taxes anyway.

00:56:35.000 And then I have to give you extra money.

00:56:37.000 It's just like, it's just such an charity culture is just such a bizarre.

00:56:40.000 Does every country have this charity culture?

00:56:43.000 I don't know.

00:56:43.000 Well, our charity culture is really weird because of U.S. aid.

00:56:48.000 Because USAID, everybody thought of as like, oh, it's aid.

00:56:51.000 We're giving aid to all these other countries.

00:56:54.000 That's important.

00:56:54.000 People are going to starve.

00:56:56.000 And then you realize like, oh, no, it's not U.S. aid.

00:57:00.000 It's a U.S. agency for international development.

00:57:04.000 So a lot of it is about overthrowing foreign governments.

00:57:07.000 A lot of it is about funding these NGOs that are supposedly nonprofit, but people extract the money out of them.

00:57:15.000 It's a lot of money laundering.

00:57:16.000 A lot of it is money laundering.

00:57:16.000 Yeah.

00:57:18.000 Fascinating.

00:57:19.000 It's so much.

00:57:19.000 Mike Benz is the guy to follow on that.

00:57:21.000 And Mike Benz is like, he's gone deep, deep into all this shit and uncovered an insane way.

00:57:29.000 He said that U.S. aid is for things that are too dirty for the CIA.

00:57:33.000 When it's too dirty for the CIA, they send it off to a non-government organization.

00:57:37.000 That's an NGO.

00:57:38.000 So an NGO can do things that the government can't do legally.

00:57:42.000 So they'll go and use this money in a way that our government can't do it.

00:57:47.000 But it's our government's money.

00:57:48.000 So it's your tax dollars go to do things that the government's not allowed to do.

00:57:53.000 And the government just does it that way through an NGO.

00:57:56.000 And people profit massively.

00:58:00.000 And money is just flowing around and no one knows where it goes.

00:58:02.000 Like the $24 billion that went to the homeless problem in California where it only got worse.

00:58:07.000 I don't even get how you hide that much money.

00:58:08.000 I don't even get how you laundered and hide.

00:58:10.000 I mean, that's like just shows you how crazy scams are in this country.

00:58:13.000 We're learning that out about the Somali.

00:58:15.000 Oh, yeah, the Minnesota thing.

00:58:17.000 But that's just one part of it.

00:58:18.000 The Somali daycares in Minnesota is the tip of the iceberg. 1.00

00:58:22.000 California is way bigger.

00:58:23.000 So people are digging into the problems in California now.

00:58:26.000 And they're saying, no, no, no.

00:58:27.000 Whatever you thought the fraud was, there was a guy that was running a bunch of daycares.

00:58:32.000 He had no in California.

00:58:35.000 No one at his organization, no kids, pulled up in a fucking Rolls-Royce when they were investigating a Rolls-Royce.

00:58:43.000 Couldn't even just get Alexis.

00:58:44.000 No.

00:58:45.000 They can't just be cool.

00:58:46.000 It's like Dane Cook's brother or whatever who stole from him, like pulled up in like a Bugatti.

00:58:49.000 It's like you couldn't just.

00:58:50.000 Did he really?

00:58:51.000 It was like something, I think, something crazy.

00:58:52.000 Like you couldn't have just got an Acura.

00:58:54.000 That's when he found out that his brother was stealing from him?

00:58:55.000 I think it was like a car that pulled up.

00:58:59.000 I know what I paid.

00:59:01.000 I know what car that sunk Dane Cook's brother.

00:59:04.000 By the way, he got out of jail and the money's still missing.

00:59:07.000 Yeah, there's a ton of money that they never recovered.

00:59:07.000 Stop.

00:59:11.000 He might have hit it in a coffee.

00:59:13.000 There's some real rich hookers in Pensacola, I'll tell you what. 1.00

00:59:16.000 He might have blown through all of it, but I'm pretty sure.

00:59:18.000 I mean, you'd have to ask Dane.

00:59:20.000 I'm pretty sure that a lot of the money was unrecovered.

00:59:20.000 Yeah.

00:59:23.000 He donated it to the LA fire victims.

00:59:25.000 Yeah, it's like people that steal like that.

00:59:27.000 Like, it's like, from what I understand, it's like kind of a gambling addiction to it.

00:59:30.000 It's like, I got away with this.

00:59:31.000 Like, you get this invincibility complex of like, now I can get away with this.

00:59:35.000 And then you just get in over your head and you show up one day in a fucking, you know, Ferrari. 0.75

00:59:39.000 And everyone's like, huh?

00:59:40.000 Did you ever see that documentary, The 7.5?

00:59:43.000 No.

00:59:44.000 The 7.5 is all about the 75th precinct in New York and how corrupt it was.

00:59:48.000 It's a really good documentary.

00:59:50.000 I had the guy who was the main guy, Michael Dowd, who was a corrupt cop.

00:59:55.000 Love it.

00:59:55.000 I had him on the podcast and he explained it.

00:59:58.000 He said, the first day of, I mean, if you watch the documentary, first day working, they threw a guy out of building and killed him.

01:00:05.000 And he was like, shut the fuck up.

01:00:07.000 Like, you know, you know what you saw.

01:00:09.000 Now you didn't see shit, right?

01:00:11.000 And they're like, yeah, I didn't see shit.

01:00:12.000 Like, they killed a guy on his first day on the job.

01:00:16.000 And he's like, okay, this is, I guess, what we do.

01:00:19.000 And so he was selling drugs, robbing drug dealers, and showed up at work with a Corvette.

01:00:30.000 Brand new badass Corvette.

01:00:31.000 Take the Corvette under a blanket and just drive a Honda to work.

01:00:35.000 Like, how like you could have gotten away with this forever?

01:00:37.000 Get an old pickup truck, stupid.

01:00:42.000 I love that shit, dude.

01:00:43.000 I fucking love it so much.

01:00:44.000 This guy shows up at his fucking daycare in a Rolls Royce.

01:00:49.000 It was like the Wild Wild Country guy.

01:00:50.000 He could have got away with that forever, but it was like the 56, like, bedazzled Rolls-Royce.

01:00:54.000 Everyone's like, I don't know, man.

01:00:56.000 Yeah.

01:00:57.000 Yeah, he had a bunch of Rolls-Royce's.

01:00:58.000 But God told me I should have these.

01:01:00.000 Like, I don't know.

01:01:02.000 But the people are retarded. 1.00

01:01:05.000 That is one of the greatest things ever.

01:01:07.000 Buy the people, for the people. 0.73

01:01:10.000 And the pause.

01:01:11.000 Dude.

01:01:12.000 But the people are retarded. 1.00

01:01:15.000 Tough titties.

01:01:18.000 So it's for the retarded. 1.00

01:01:20.000 So look at this.

01:01:21.000 42.1 million.

01:01:23.000 This is the guy.

01:01:25.000 He's trying to cover the car with his body.

01:01:27.000 Pull back and let's hear what he says in the beginning of this.

01:01:31.000 I mean, with all that money, maybe buy some Ozempic too, homie. 1.00

01:01:35.000 He's eating good.

01:01:36.000 I'm here with what he says.

01:01:39.000 Ever since Nick Shirley has done his reporting in Minnesota, we have Iranian daycare centers in California.

01:01:44.000 Over here we have 1412 South Crescent Heights Creative Children Academy.

01:01:48.000 Nobody has come in or out of his facility in nine months.

01:01:51.000 Every window is just boarded up because no one in LA has kids.

01:01:55.000 Look at this Rolls-Royce.

01:01:57.000 This property gets where's the money jump sheet with?

01:02:00.000 The way the door opens is set up.

01:02:02.000 Where'd you get this car?

01:02:02.000 Just one facility.

01:02:03.000 I don't understand.

01:02:04.000 How did you buy that property?

01:02:05.000 Yeah, did you win the law?

01:02:07.000 That's assault.

01:02:07.000 Don't touch me.

01:02:08.000 This looks fake.

01:02:09.000 It really does.

01:02:10.000 It looks fake as shit.

01:02:11.000 It looks fake as shit.

01:02:12.000 This looks like completely staged.

01:02:14.000 Just the way he walks up and grabs the car.

01:02:17.000 When you saw people with cameras and you've got a convertible room.

01:02:20.000 He would turn around, I think.

01:02:21.000 You would just turn around.

01:02:22.000 It's just too convenient.

01:02:24.000 There's no one there.

01:02:24.000 Why is he there?

01:02:26.000 That looks fake.

01:02:28.000 He's not wearing any brands.

01:02:29.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:02:29.000 It's also, there's something, my mind registered his face when he started talking.

01:02:36.000 Wait, this is a guy?

01:02:36.000 Wait a minute.

01:02:37.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:02:38.000 100%.

01:02:38.000 So it's fake.

01:02:41.000 So that was like a staged reenactment or something.

01:02:41.000 So I just.

01:02:44.000 Yeah.

01:02:45.000 It's horseshit.

01:02:48.000 This is like when I repost videos where people have like seven fingers.

01:02:48.000 Yeah.

01:02:51.000 It's just bad acting.

01:02:53.000 I saw his face.

01:02:54.000 I saw his face.

01:02:55.000 This guy's a bad actor.

01:02:56.000 This is like a Hallmark special.

01:02:58.000 Well, when he took off the golf hat, like douchebagger vance, like before to start his thing, that was.

01:03:03.000 It's just engagement.

01:03:04.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:03:05.000 Why are you wearing a suit?

01:03:06.000 Why are you wearing a suit?

01:03:07.000 Meanwhile, people are sending that to me like it's real.

01:03:09.000 There it is.

01:03:09.000 That thing?

01:03:10.000 But it's basically.

01:03:10.000 Yeah.

01:03:11.000 They want it to be real.

01:03:12.000 Yeah.

01:03:13.000 And by the way, you get to a point with real and fake where you're just like, it might as well be.

01:03:17.000 You know?

01:03:18.000 It might as well be.

01:03:19.000 But that guy, you could tell his face was fake.

01:03:22.000 Yeah, it was.

01:03:22.000 He's like, what?

01:03:23.000 How'd you get me?

01:03:24.000 Yeah.

01:03:24.000 Good on.

01:03:25.000 This is private property.

01:03:27.000 The push was a little bitch for someone who's about to lose everything. 1.00

01:03:29.000 Like, the camera work was pretty good, too.

01:03:31.000 It's just, he's just being silly.

01:03:33.000 Yeah.

01:03:33.000 But there's always a lot of that, too.

01:03:35.000 That's a problem.

01:03:36.000 It's just like we live in a strange world, and no one investigated where all this money was going in the past.

01:03:44.000 No one investigated.

01:03:46.000 How could you?

01:03:46.000 One of the things that Elon said to me said Medicaid fraud is the biggest amount of money that's fraudulent in this country.

01:03:53.000 And he didn't want to even talk about it because he was worried that people would kill him.

01:03:57.000 That's what he said on the podcast.

01:03:59.000 He goes, I could go into this, but they'll kill me.

01:04:02.000 That's like someone saying they have something they didn't have to get the catastrophe insurance thing.

01:04:07.000 Because, like, I had a— There's a lot of that.

01:04:08.000 Yeah.

01:04:09.000 Like my dad had a stroke and you get like, it was stolen by a family member.

01:04:13.000 The fraud is within my family.

01:04:14.000 But that, yeah, that you get like 20 grand.

01:04:18.000 Medicaid Part B, I want to say.

01:04:20.000 If you have like a stroke, it's called a catastrophic event.

01:04:22.000 They'll just like give you like 20 grand or something.

01:04:24.000 Is it like that?

01:04:25.000 You like fake that or something and then get that money type of thing?

01:04:29.000 Is that like what medication?

01:04:30.000 You can fake a stroke?

01:04:31.000 No, what it is is, well, here's the daycare thing.

01:04:34.000 Like that's part of it.

01:04:36.000 And then there's a bunch of people that don't exist that are getting Medicaid money.

01:04:40.000 Right.

01:04:41.000 Right.

01:04:42.000 Yeah.

01:04:42.000 And then there's autism diagnosis, right?

01:04:45.000 So they self-diagnose his autism.

01:04:47.000 They open up an autism center.

01:04:49.000 They have a bunch of kids in the autism center that get money for those kids.

01:04:52.000 There's no autism.

01:04:54.000 There's no kids.

01:04:55.000 It's all fake.

01:04:55.000 Right, right, right, right.

01:04:56.000 There's also like, there's these fake scams where there was one that they uncovered in Minnesota where they were supposedly feeding an exorbitant amount of children and there was no kids.

01:05:07.000 No one was going there, but they were saying they were feeding like 5,000 people a day.

01:05:10.000 Sure.

01:05:10.000 They didn't even have the capacity to feed 5,000 people a day.

01:05:13.000 There was no food coming in there.

01:05:15.000 But the American dream, the politicians were getting so much money from these people.

01:05:20.000 Right.

01:05:20.000 Just from the Somali community that owned daycare centers, the Minnesota politicians were getting $35 million last year.

01:05:28.000 Is that Tim Walz to blame for that?

01:05:31.000 I don't know.

01:05:32.000 Well, he just stepped down from his reelection.

01:05:34.000 That's not good.

01:05:36.000 That's not good.

01:05:37.000 When you were almost the vice president of the United States, you know, how many people came at me?

01:05:41.000 People that I'm like, thought I was friends with, like acquaintances, more maybe, but I now realize they were acquaintances.

01:05:47.000 When I made fun of Tim Walz for going to China so many times, like, which let me not get this wrong.

01:05:52.000 It's definitely more than 10, more than 10 or something, that Tim Wallace just like went to China to go, like, which is, you know, if you're going to have gone to China that many times and then run to be the vice president, why wouldn't you, why would you hide it?

01:06:05.000 Number one, why wouldn't you lead with it as like this is one of our enemies?

01:06:08.000 I've been, I know the language.

01:06:10.000 Like, why wouldn't you either lean into it, make it, I'm an expert on it, and this is one of our big issues.

01:06:16.000 Like, the fact that we all pretended that he wasn't going to China.

01:06:19.000 First of all, on what salary are you going to China every year?

01:06:23.000 Did you see a politician when he was doing that?

01:06:25.000 What's your miles program?

01:06:26.000 Well, I could see if you were a businessman.

01:06:27.000 He was a teacher.

01:06:29.000 He was going with kids.

01:06:29.000 He was a teacher.

01:06:30.000 He was taking kids to China.

01:06:33.000 But I mean, doesn't that make sense, though, that you're taking kids on an international trip so they can learn about the world?

01:06:39.000 Only China.

01:06:41.000 Maybe that's his area of expertise.

01:06:42.000 I'm trying to like.

01:06:43.000 But why not lead with it?

01:06:44.000 Trying to steel man it.

01:06:46.000 I know me too.

01:06:46.000 I do the same thing where I'm like, why doesn't he appoint?

01:06:48.000 I've been to China 35 times.

01:06:49.000 I took kids there so they could learn Mandarin because they're going to have to interface with China later during business.

01:06:54.000 Like it was just like this thing where it's when someone else tries to hide something, something that I wouldn't have thought was untoward.

01:06:59.000 I'm like, well, hold on.

01:07:00.000 Now it's weird.

01:07:01.000 Right.

01:07:02.000 And why can't I ask a question about it?

01:07:03.000 Whenever I would say, how many times did you go to China?

01:07:05.000 Everyone's like, what?

01:07:06.000 And I'm like, well, here's the crazy one.

01:07:06.000 What?

01:07:09.000 When all the Somali daycare center came out, he started blaming white men for all the crime.

01:07:14.000 Sure.

01:07:14.000 What about white men?

01:07:15.000 Well, he's white men with all the crime. 0.95

01:07:16.000 He's trying this, that pain.

01:07:17.000 He's like, what about me?

01:07:18.000 Woke playbook.

01:07:19.000 Who about me?

01:07:20.000 I'm the criminal.

01:07:21.000 I'm a white guy.

01:07:22.000 What do you think?

01:07:23.000 He's telling on himself right then and there.

01:07:24.000 What do you mean?

01:07:25.000 He was basically trying to say that it's racist.

01:07:28.000 But it's not.

01:07:29.000 Facts aren't racist.

01:07:31.000 It's just clever.

01:07:34.000 If they did it themselves.

01:07:36.000 If they did it themselves, if they were the ones that were perpetrating the fraud.

01:07:40.000 The real problem is if they didn't do it themselves, who helped them fill out all those forms?

01:07:46.000 Who helped them organize this?

01:07:48.000 And is this a money laundering thing?

01:07:50.000 And are they filtering this money into other people's accounts?

01:07:53.000 Are they filtering into offshore accounts?

01:07:55.000 Because supposedly, here's another one.

01:07:58.000 Supposedly they were sending money on a regular basis back to Somalia and they were catching them at TSA in Minnesota.

01:08:06.000 Sure.

01:08:07.000 See if that's true, Jamie.

01:08:08.000 It's a lot.

01:08:09.000 It's a lot, you guys.

01:08:11.000 I mean, it's, it's, you know, I guess also the other question is when all this is going on, I'm like, do I focus on this or like, are we going to war?

01:08:20.000 Like, you know.

01:08:22.000 Well, you can only focus on so much.

01:08:25.000 I know.

01:08:26.000 That's the thing about the internet.

01:08:27.000 If you want to get outraged, it's there to feed you.

01:08:30.000 And then all day.

01:08:30.000 Yeah, totally.

01:08:31.000 And then once you click on something, they're just going to keep feeding you more and more of that.

01:08:35.000 And I'm sort of like, is this as big of a story as my algorithm is telling me it is?

01:08:39.000 Because I remember, you know, and this is, I think, why it's like more important than ever to be on stage as much as possible to just corroborate like a premise to make sure that everyone even is aware of it, given our little echo chambers and stuff.

01:08:52.000 But remember when, remember when Kamala Harris was like giving speeches that it kind of seemed like she was shitfaced. 1.00

01:08:58.000 Like it just, it sort of seemed like she was like slurring words or something.

01:09:02.000 Those were, you know, that would come.

01:09:04.000 And I was like doing this joke about it before the election that was like, you know, like maybe this is what we need.

01:09:09.000 Like what's scarier than a, you know, alcoholic woman with no kids, you know? 1.00

01:09:15.000 Like she can just be calling up like Putin in the middle of the night like, hey, fat.

01:09:19.000 Like she's just, you know, and I was doing it.

01:09:22.000 It was doing well.

01:09:23.000 Everyone got it.

01:09:24.000 And then I was somewhere in like New York City, I think it was, and no one had seen that video.

01:09:29.000 People are like, what are you talking about?

01:09:30.000 No one had seen, had any awareness of that.

01:09:32.000 And I was, it was kind of bone-chilling.

01:09:34.000 Because I'm like, well, she's probably exhausted.

01:09:38.000 Right.

01:09:38.000 Here's the other thing.

01:09:39.000 You're running around.

01:09:41.000 You're doing so much.

01:09:43.000 You're campaigning.

01:09:44.000 You're constantly doing it.

01:09:45.000 If you catch me and I'm really tired, I sound like I'm on pills.

01:09:49.000 Yeah.

01:09:49.000 Like, yeah, I don't fucking, I don't know.

01:09:51.000 And then you're probably a little casual about everything because you're doing something.

01:09:56.000 You're repeating the same things over and over again.

01:09:58.000 You're going to these places.

01:10:00.000 You're fucking completely exhausted or you're coming off of whatever they put you on to get you up. 0.79

01:10:05.000 Yeah, adrenaline.

01:10:06.000 And, you know, it's also, I think that there used to, there was this old way of doing things where you could say the same thing on every platform and no one would cut it all together.

01:10:18.000 That's it.

01:10:18.000 Okay, here it is.

01:10:19.000 I found it.

01:10:20.000 I'm going to send this to you, Jamie.

01:10:22.000 Because this is apparently a legitimate source.

01:10:26.000 I'm looking up the main source they said they got it from.

01:10:28.000 It said Hotland Security officials told us a source called Just the News.

01:10:34.000 So I've never, I'm just looking up.

01:10:35.000 Well, this is the TSA.

01:10:37.000 Yeah, that's what it says.

01:10:38.000 Yeah, federal probe, hundreds of millions of dollars inspected with small cash and living Minneapolis airport.

01:10:42.000 It says that this is the source of the story.

01:10:45.000 So I was just trying to find out if it's a legit source.

01:10:48.000 What they were told.

01:10:49.000 For sure, that money didn't just stay in the community.

01:10:53.000 Especially if they didn't have the ability to organize this and develop this scam, someone else helped them, and those people were getting money from it.

01:11:02.000 So how were they getting the money?

01:11:03.000 Were they getting the money in cash?

01:11:05.000 Was it being sent and wired to offshore accounts?

01:11:08.000 How are they doing it?

01:11:09.000 And it's clear that there's so much money missing.

01:11:12.000 It's in the billions now.

01:11:14.000 It's bigger than the entire GDP of Somalia, just from Minnesota, allegedly.

01:11:20.000 Wild.

01:11:21.000 The entire GDP of a country, one state's fraud, is supposedly over the course of X amount of days that they did this.

01:11:30.000 And is it true that the guy that uncovered it was kind of like some guy?

01:11:33.000 Like it was like Nick Shirley kid.

01:11:35.000 Yeah, this like inner kid.

01:11:36.000 Yeah.

01:11:37.000 Good for him.

01:11:38.000 But I mean, there's the other question, like, did someone direct him towards this?

01:11:42.000 Is this like, you know what I'm saying?

01:11:44.000 Like, is this like, did the Republicans set this up to try to expose it?

01:11:50.000 Is it him just being an independent journalist?

01:11:52.000 He seems like a very smart kid.

01:11:54.000 I've seen him.

01:11:54.000 He was on Patrick Bett David's show.

01:11:56.000 Yeah.

01:11:57.000 He's a virgin.

01:12:00.000 Why do we know that?

01:12:01.000 Because he's a peace.

01:12:03.000 He talks about it.

01:12:04.000 He said he was a virgin.

01:12:04.000 He said they can't get him on anything.

01:12:06.000 He can't get me on sexual assault.

01:12:07.000 I'm a virgin.

01:12:08.000 You can't get me on anything.

01:12:09.000 We can get you on being a virgin.

01:12:10.000 Here's the article.

01:12:12.000 Transportation Security Administration flagged nearly $700 million in cash detected in passengers' luggage leaving the Minneapolis airport in the last two years.

01:12:23.000 That's crazy.

01:12:24.000 That's probably it.

01:12:25.000 That's crazy.

01:12:25.000 Yeah.

01:12:26.000 A massive cash exodus believed to be tied to Somali immigrants and their money couriers.

01:12:32.000 Homeland Security officials told just the news.

01:12:35.000 So who's the Homeland Security official, though?

01:12:37.000 You know what I mean?

01:12:38.000 I was reading through it.

01:12:39.000 That first statement doesn't say like all the flat.

01:12:43.000 Sorry, let me start this over.

01:12:44.000 Some of these were a million dollars, and it says that they were legally declared every time they did it.

01:12:48.000 Right, but you could legally declare it if it was cleared by whoever the fuck is involved in this fraud, right?

01:12:55.000 So if you're donating $35 million last year, just last year in 2025 to Democratic politicians from these Somali daycares, which I believe is true. 1.00

01:13:05.000 I was trying to look that up and couldn't find out that.

01:13:07.000 Bundles of cash and luggage, some as much as a million dollars in a single trip raised suspicions.

01:13:13.000 This is the part I don't.

01:13:13.000 Yeah.

01:13:15.000 I was like taking each statement as it doesn't say that those were each, like that particular one was a Somali person.

01:13:21.000 That could have been someone going to Vegas, could have been someone going to buy a house.

01:13:24.000 I don't know.

01:13:25.000 Like I'm saying all $335 million.

01:13:27.000 Nobody buys a house with a million dollars in cash.

01:13:28.000 I'm not saying they did.

01:13:29.000 I'm just saying, but it could have been anybody.

01:13:30.000 It could have been buying a Bugatti.

01:13:32.000 Could have been a poker player going to a World Series of poker.

01:13:34.000 Dan Cook's brother.

01:13:36.000 I'm just sort of saying to be Tony Henchcliffe going to the cowboy bootstore.

01:13:41.000 It's conflating a bunch of stuff together.

01:13:43.000 Right.

01:13:44.000 Justthenews.com.

01:13:46.000 Is that a legitimate organization?

01:13:48.000 Is that a far-right organization?

01:13:50.000 Let's look at their side articles and we'll get a view of what their perspective is.

01:13:54.000 Look at the trending lines.

01:13:54.000 Is that what you do?

01:13:56.000 that a little larger.

01:13:57.000 Let's see.

01:13:58.000 Trump orders government to buy $200 billion in mortgage bonds to lower rates.

01:14:02.000 That's pro-right wing.

01:14:04.000 CDC misled the public with study implying COVID vaccines save healthy kids.

01:14:10.000 UCLA expert warns, also right-wing.

01:14:13.000 USCs is another sanctioned oil tanker in the Caribbean, sanctioned oil tanker, not just oil tanker.

01:14:20.000 They were sanctioned, right-wing.

01:14:21.000 Maduro's ouster leaves China holding the bag on oil investments, right-wing, right?

01:14:26.000 Also, what's in UCLA expert?

01:14:28.000 What's the top one?

01:14:30.000 No, no, no.

01:14:30.000 Comrade.

01:14:31.000 Larger?

01:14:32.000 Comrade Singham to face House subpoena as his CCP-tied network reveals or leads rather renewed anti-ICE protests.

01:14:42.000 So it seems like this is a very right-wing.

01:14:45.000 This just the news seems like at least lead.

01:14:48.000 See, just the news, no noise.

01:14:50.000 Yeah, House and House fails to override Trump VTOM.

01:14:55.000 That could be anybody from Minnesota then.

01:14:57.000 Minneapolis travelers alone had $342.37 million in their luggage in 2024.

01:15:02.000 That's a lot of money.

01:15:04.000 Okay, let's find this out.

01:15:06.000 So Minnesota Travelers alone had $342.37 million in their luggage in 2024.

01:15:12.000 So let's put into perplexity, how much money did California travelers have in their luggage in 2024?

01:15:20.000 How many Bitcoin did California travelers have in their assholes?

01:15:25.000 California travelers have in their luggage in 2024.

01:15:30.000 But who puts that at the TSA?

01:15:32.000 At TSA.

01:15:32.000 Does anyone ever measure your money when you go through or count it?

01:15:36.000 You're supposed to declare, I think, if you have more than 10 grand.

01:15:36.000 No.

01:15:38.000 But we lie.

01:15:39.000 Everyone knows that.

01:15:39.000 I know.

01:15:40.000 I know, I know.

01:15:40.000 That's true.

01:15:41.000 That's what they said.

01:15:42.000 These were all, you know.

01:15:43.000 But if I went through with $1,000, they never would know.

01:15:47.000 So the amount cannot be determined from available data.

01:15:50.000 TSA and regulated agencies track only limited categories such as unclaimed money at checkpoints or certain cash seizures.

01:15:57.000 And these figures are nationwide rather than specific to California travelers or all money carried in their luggage.

01:16:04.000 Okay.

01:16:05.000 So how do they know that about Minnesota?

01:16:08.000 It's coming from one source.

01:16:08.000 And that's why I was like, why did they only tell one source?

01:16:10.000 Why wouldn't they have told all it?

01:16:11.000 Like, why wouldn't they call Fox?

01:16:12.000 Why wouldn't they call it CNN?

01:16:14.000 Why wouldn't it do that?

01:16:15.000 Also, it's this one very right-leaning website, right?

01:16:19.000 It appears right-leaning.

01:16:20.000 How do they ascertain cash someone's carrying through a Tennessee Star has it as well?

01:16:25.000 They were just reporting the same article.

01:16:27.000 From just the news.

01:16:28.000 Right.

01:16:28.000 So that's another way that you can distribute propaganda.

01:16:32.000 You have one source, and then you send that source out, and a bunch of other people repeat it and said, as reported by this one website, and that one website might be bullshit.

01:16:41.000 I also like to look at the ads that are on the surrounding article.

01:16:46.000 Exactly.

01:16:47.000 If it's like gun safe, I'm like, this is right wing.

01:16:49.000 If it's like tampons for men, I'm like, I think this is a left-wing one.

01:16:52.000 I got it.

01:16:53.000 That always kind of helps.

01:16:54.000 That's wild.

01:16:56.000 I have a family member who works in like kind of banking, and I'm like, what's up with this oil?

01:17:00.000 What's up with the China buying up all the silver?

01:17:03.000 What are we doing?

01:17:04.000 Did you see the Doomsday Plane?

01:17:05.000 What's the Doomsday Plane?

01:17:07.000 The Doomsday Plane that, I mean, could just be a SIA, but it's the Doomsday Plane. 0.97

01:17:11.000 I think it went to California, the one that is in case of a nuclear event, it can hold, stay in the sky for a couple days and self-refuel.

01:17:22.000 It's made my nipples hard just looking at it.

01:17:24.000 It's gorgeous.

01:17:26.000 Doomsday plane?

01:17:27.000 Jamie, can you pull up this doomsday plane so people listening don't think I'm Roseanne?

01:17:32.000 Okay.

01:17:34.000 Doomsday, Trump's doomsday E-4B plane sighted in Washington and Los Angeles days after Maduro capture.

01:17:44.000 But get that pretty picture up of it.

01:17:45.000 I mean, that looks like a picture.

01:17:48.000 Well, that's them citing it.

01:17:50.000 But go back to the art.

01:17:51.000 Oh, that's look at this thing.

01:17:54.000 That's the doomsday plane?

01:17:55.000 What's that?

01:17:55.000 Isn't that that with the blue stripe?

01:17:59.000 Wait a minute.

01:17:59.000 They're all different.

01:18:00.000 This is when they're selling it for North Op Grumman, so anybody can buy it, and then you get it on America's logos on it.

01:18:05.000 Right, but it's also different in the way it's built.

01:18:07.000 Look at the top of it.

01:18:08.000 Is that the escape pod at the very top where they pop off and go to Mars?

01:18:13.000 It's similar.

01:18:14.000 Inside the doomsday plane.

01:18:16.000 Okay, so go back to the article.

01:18:18.000 What is the, well, we'll put it into perplexity.

01:18:21.000 What is the capacity of the United States doomsday E4B plane?

01:18:27.000 Like, what does it do?

01:18:28.000 It can, like, stay in the air for a couple days.

01:18:30.000 It can refuel itself.

01:18:32.000 What is the capacity of the doomsday plane the United States has?

01:18:40.000 It's chock full of cocaine, ketamine.

01:18:46.000 Elon made sure it's good.

01:18:48.000 Mushrooms, yeah, yeah.

01:18:50.000 Okay, and accommodate a little over 100 people with typical published figures ranging from about 108 mission crew up to roughly 111 to 112, total passengers, total personnel, including flight crew and staff, and official media descriptions, usually summarized as seating for around 110 people.

01:19:08.000 What can it do?

01:19:09.000 Okay, endurance.

01:19:09.000 Look at that.

01:19:10.000 What's the maximum endurance?

01:19:11.000 Click on that.

01:19:12.000 No, this thing is like a beast.

01:19:15.000 Okay.

01:19:17.000 It can stay aloft for 150 hours.

01:19:19.000 Oh, that's it?

01:19:20.000 That's not much.

01:19:21.000 With sources describing capabilities from roughly 72 hours up to about a week in sustained operations.

01:19:30.000 So it can fly for a week.

01:19:32.000 That's crazy.

01:19:33.000 Because it can self-fuel.

01:19:34.000 It can fuel air.

01:19:36.000 Keep it up, please.

01:19:37.000 And then how long can it stay with aerial refueling?

01:19:41.000 This is what I think you were getting at.

01:19:43.000 Yeah.

01:19:43.000 It can theoretically remain airborne for several days, limited mainly by crew fatigue and maintenance needs rather than fuel.

01:19:50.000 Multiple sources describe realistic endurance of roughly three to seven days of continuous flight under sustained operations when supported by tankers and rotation of crew.

01:20:00.000 So here's the thing.

01:20:02.000 If it is a doomsday scenario and you're up in the air for five days, it's just like, that just means you're going to die in five days.

01:20:08.000 That's right.

01:20:08.000 What's the.

01:20:09.000 Or do you just pull this out as a message to everybody, you know, because you would only need this if there was a nuclear event, right?

01:20:17.000 So it's the idea to just go like, hey, what just happened in, you know, Venezuela?

01:20:21.000 Just so you guys know we're flying this thing around.

01:20:25.000 You know?

01:20:27.000 When's the last time it flew?

01:20:28.000 When's the last time it made a cameo?

01:20:30.000 Also, I don't, I mean, I know we were talking about the Delta extraction, and like, I would never want to. 1.00

01:20:39.000 I mean, watching the video of the Delta extraction, how they of Maduro, they built like a replica of the building and were blindfolded, like going through it, you know, practicing it and stuff. 0.99

01:20:50.000 But it, it, I was talking to your guy when we were coming over.

01:20:54.000 It could have been pre-negotiated, right?

01:20:57.000 There is a chance that that could have been pre-negotiated.

01:20:59.000 They killed 80 of his services.

01:21:02.000 I don't think it was negotiated.

01:21:03.000 Yeah, no, probably not.

01:21:04.000 Here's one funny one.

01:21:05.000 But it is weird that his wife was there.

01:21:07.000 I guess that was like a thing a couple people flagged.

01:21:09.000 What, did they kidnapped her?

01:21:10.000 Just that she was there and involved.

01:21:12.000 Yeah.

01:21:12.000 Well, she's his wife.

01:21:13.000 Yeah.

01:21:15.000 One of the funny ones was somebody posted on Twitter a photograph of this woman and her children, and the journalist said, this woman and her children, her husband and their father was killed in the U.S. raid in Venezuela.

01:21:32.000 And then everybody was like, right.

01:21:34.000 What was he there for?

01:21:36.000 What was he doing there?

01:21:37.000 Was he a fucking mercenary?

01:21:39.000 Like, what was he doing?

01:21:41.000 You know?

01:21:42.000 He was Cuban, apparently, because there was a lot of Cuban defense that they used, that Maduro used for whatever reason.

01:21:49.000 I guess communists love each other.

01:21:50.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:21:51.000 They hang out with each other, other dictators, like, hey, let me borrow some of you guys.

01:21:55.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:21:56.000 Well, I mean, the guy might have been a mercenary.

01:21:59.000 There was certainly mercenaries working for him.

01:22:01.000 I mean, he had 80 people died that were there protecting him.

01:22:06.000 This fucking stormed in.

01:22:08.000 They didn't lose a single U.S. service man.

01:22:10.000 Why?

01:22:10.000 So sick.

01:22:11.000 Crazy.

01:22:12.000 I mean, it's just like flawless.

01:22:14.000 Other dictators got to be like, fuck.

01:22:16.000 Yeah.

01:22:17.000 I didn't know that.

01:22:17.000 I mean, is that why Iran, was that why Iran was like, now's the time?

01:22:22.000 Well, the people are cracking down.

01:22:25.000 The people are out in the streets now, but now, apparently, the Islamic regime is assassinating people that are protesting.

01:22:31.000 Of course.

01:22:32.000 And your boy, this is where Elon really shines.

01:22:35.000 Like, you know, bringing Starlink over to a country that has cut off Wi-Fi.

01:22:40.000 Right.

01:22:41.000 Because that's what they do.

01:22:41.000 Right.

01:22:42.000 They cut off Wi-Fi so these people can't organize.

01:22:44.000 I think it's also been cut off for that.

01:22:46.000 I mean, I think they've had a limited version of it for so long.

01:22:48.000 Well, they definitely killed people who protest.

01:22:50.000 They killed a gold medalist in the Olympics.

01:22:52.000 They killed a guy who was a wrestler, gold medalist, because the UFC tried to get involved and keep this guy from being assassinated.

01:22:59.000 They killed him.

01:23:00.000 You've seen like video of Iran in like the 70s and stuff.

01:23:04.000 Crazy.

01:23:05.000 Yeah, we did that.

01:23:07.000 Yeah, we did that because they wanted to nationalize their oil.

01:23:10.000 We were like, nah, playa.

01:23:11.000 Mm-hmm.

01:23:12.000 Nah, nah.

01:23:13.000 Oh, hell nah, brah.

01:23:14.000 Yeah, they had a democratic society.

01:23:17.000 It is entirely because of the intelligence agencies.

01:23:20.000 We went over there and, you know, the you can find the story.

01:23:23.000 Find the story so I don't butcher it.

01:23:25.000 But essentially the Shah was like, hey, why is the British Petroleum Company or whatever it was, why are they making all the money?

01:23:35.000 We'll nationalize our oil.

01:23:37.000 And he was gone, you know, within days.

01:23:40.000 And they put in the Islamic regime and it has been a religious state ever since then.

01:23:47.000 I mean, that's our doing.

01:23:50.000 Or the British oil company and us, multiple different people.

01:23:54.000 And essentially, it was all just about his oil.

01:23:58.000 Or the country's oil, rather.

01:23:59.000 But Maduro, like, he was going to be torn limb to limb at some point, right?

01:24:04.000 Well, he had a bounty on him by the Biden administration.

01:24:07.000 This is one thing that people need to understand.

01:24:09.000 It wasn't just the Trump administration.

01:24:10.000 The Hunter Biden?

01:24:12.000 That's who descended.

01:24:13.000 He had his own administration.

01:24:14.000 He's smoking crack.

01:24:15.000 Kill him.

01:24:16.000 He's ruining my crack.

01:24:19.000 No, the Biden administration had a bounty on Maduro.

01:24:23.000 I believe it was 20 million or 22 million trying to get people off that guy.

01:24:29.000 So it wasn't like we're the only ones that think he was a bad guy.

01:24:32.000 They were trying to use money to get people to kill that guy.

01:24:36.000 And besides the oil of it all, were they going to allow China and Russia to use it to put missiles there?

01:24:43.000 China was there negotiating with Maduro the day the U.S. came and kidnapped him.

01:24:49.000 Bad move, homie. 1.00

01:24:51.000 They came in that day and we're having meetings with Maduro.

01:24:53.000 And that night, they snatched him out of his bed.

01:24:56.000 You think to get oil or to put nuclear?

01:24:59.000 100% to get oil.

01:25:00.000 They want that oil. 0.93

01:25:00.000 Yeah. 0.93

01:25:01.000 Everybody wants that oil.

01:25:02.000 It's so funny.

01:25:03.000 Like when I'm, you know, having a kid, you know, the way that it changes you, but like the things you focus on, the things you're obsessed with that keep you up at night.

01:25:10.000 Like before I had a kid, it was like, is he going to text me back?

01:25:12.000 Now I'm like obsessed with like finite resources.

01:25:15.000 I'm like, where's all the helium?

01:25:17.000 Like we're running out of helium.

01:25:19.000 Like where's the.

01:25:20.000 Besides the list.

01:25:20.000 What's helium for?

01:25:22.000 Hilarious.

01:25:23.000 I won't be able to have a birthday party for my son.

01:25:23.000 Yeah.

01:25:28.000 What are clowns going to do?

01:25:30.000 No, it's for ventilators.

01:25:33.000 Although I think we found the ventilators actually harmed people.

01:25:37.000 But I think it's like ventilators and medical stuff.

01:25:39.000 Like, you know, helium is finite.

01:25:41.000 Like, there's only a certain amount, and we kind of just use it for like the Macy's Day parade for like floats and shit.

01:25:46.000 But I think that there is actually a lot of helium in Texas, maybe Oklahoma, and then Qatar is like the other place that it.

01:25:53.000 But we have a limited supply of helium.

01:25:56.000 I never even thought about helium before, except the comedy clubs.

01:25:59.000 Don't get me started on sand.

01:26:01.000 Shout out to Philly.

01:26:02.000 Yeah, I love helium.

01:26:03.000 Philly, awesome club.

01:26:03.000 It's a great fucking club.

01:26:04.000 Also, sand.

01:26:05.000 I think it's a good idea.

01:26:06.000 Jamie, what's the story behind Iran and the nationalization of their oil?

01:26:10.000 Well, that's a longer story.

01:26:12.000 That's going to go back to the 50s and 70s.

01:26:14.000 Right.

01:26:15.000 But when we did it, because we definitely were involved.

01:26:17.000 The U.S. was involved in overthrowing the legitimate government of Iran.

01:26:22.000 Oh, yeah.

01:26:23.000 Putting the Ayatollah in. 0.93

01:26:25.000 And then they ruined the entire country because Iranian women are fucking hot. 1.00

01:26:31.000 They are beautiful.

01:26:32.000 And smart as shit.

01:26:33.000 I truly, my OB, who saved me and my son's life during childbirth, like just Iranian bitches do not play around. 1.00

01:26:42.000 They make great wrestlers, too.

01:26:43.000 United States initially tried to mediate between Britain and Iran during the 1951 nationalization crisis, but then moved to help overturn Iran's elected government to reverse the consequences of the nationalization.

01:26:55.000 It's all about oil.

01:26:56.000 1953, U.S. officials helped organize the coup that removed Prime Minister Mohammed.

01:27:01.000 How do you say that word?

01:27:02.000 Masadaig? 0.90

01:27:03.000 Masadegh?

01:27:05.000 I don't know how to say that word.

01:27:06.000 I'm going to leave you out on a cliff on this.

01:27:08.000 whose rise had been closely tied to the nationalization of Iranian oil.

01:27:12.000 In March 1951, Iran's parliament voted to nationalize the assets of British-owned Anglo-Iranian oil company, responding to long-standing grievances over low royalties and foreign control.

01:27:27.000 That's it.

01:27:27.000 Nationalist leader became prime minister soon after and made implementation of nationalization central to his program.

01:27:35.000 So under President Truman, the U.S. generally opposed the idea of full nationalization in principle, but did not want Iran pushed to the collapse or move toward the Soviet Union.

01:27:44.000 Washington sent envoys such as, oh, so they wanted to keep it away from the Soviet Union, so they turned it into his Islamic regime. 0.90

01:27:50.000 Sure.

01:27:51.000 George McGee and W. Avril Harriman to seek a compromise that would preserve Western access to oil while accepting some changes to the existing concession.

01:28:01.000 Okay.

01:28:02.000 Couped reversal in 53 under President Eisenhower, U.S. Central Intelligence Agency working, there it is, working with Britain's MI6, carried out Operation Ajax covert operation to overthrow whatever you say his name is, Masadeya.

01:28:17.000 Masa Daya.

01:28:19.000 And strengthen the Shah's rule. 0.96

01:28:21.000 The coup removed the government most associated with oil nationalization and paved the way in 1954 for an international oil consortium in which five major U.S. oil companies, along with British and other firms, gained significant stakes in Iranian oil, ending exclusive British control.

01:28:38.000 That's it.

01:28:39.000 We did it.

01:28:40.000 I was fascinated by it.

01:28:41.000 We ruined it.

01:28:41.000 There was this TV show on, I think, National Geographic, I want to say, called A Little Light or a Small Light that was about what was going on with, you know, in the Holocaust.

01:28:53.000 Like it was slow.

01:28:55.000 It was slow.

01:28:56.000 It wasn't just like one day.

01:28:57.000 They just got, you know, it was like they slowly started seizing art and then, you know, not letting them get jobs.

01:29:05.000 Like how these gradual things happen.

01:29:06.000 Like to go from the 70s of like the women out in bathing suits on the to like there's women that were, you know, that had enjoyed the freedom and then all of a sudden had to, like, it's just so fascinating that like how gradual it is.

01:29:21.000 Oh, yeah.

01:29:22.000 And how you get desensitized, how you make.

01:29:24.000 What's a frog in boiling water?

01:29:25.000 That's it.

01:29:26.000 They don't realize they're boiling until it's too late.

01:29:26.000 Yeah.

01:29:29.000 Or you do know what's happening.

01:29:31.000 And that's what's happening right now in New York City.

01:29:34.000 But he said he would stop the carriage horses, so I'm all for it.

01:29:37.000 I'm kind of down with that.

01:29:38.000 Yeah, I mean, I think that's fucked up.

01:29:39.000 That's disgusting.

01:29:40.000 Those horses do not need to be wandering around New York City sniffing fucking brake dust.

01:29:44.000 It's disgusting.

01:29:45.000 Tearing assholes around.

01:29:46.000 It's disgusting.

01:29:47.000 I mean, it's, you know, you know me and my horse thing, but it's so disgusting.

01:29:54.000 And, you know, the amount, it's like nobody knows how many elephants kill their trainers a year and how many, you know, all kinds of crazy.

01:30:00.000 We saw the orca kill the trainer, you know, but stuff like that happens so often and they just cover it up.

01:30:04.000 But the amount of carriage horses, a couple of them got out, and we've seen them get out and we've seen them collapse and all this horrific stuff.

01:30:11.000 And something else is going on with it, which is, and look, I'm the first person to say, like, New York was really safe when the mafia was, you know, kind of like there's that documentary about how they would sort of protect people in the subways and you sort of would fill in where the government couldn't.

01:30:28.000 But there's something going on with the horse carriage business.

01:30:30.000 A horse got out who was 29 years old.

01:30:33.000 Archie was his name.

01:30:35.000 29.

01:30:37.000 It only had a couple more years.

01:30:37.000 Yeah.

01:30:39.000 And I tried to negotiate with them, got a bunch of friends that have like FU money and basically said, you're going to get $38,000 cash.

01:30:48.000 This is a horse that's pretty much done.

01:30:49.000 Right.

01:30:50.000 We'll take the horse in the middle of the night.

01:30:50.000 Cash.

01:30:52.000 No social media, nothing.

01:30:54.000 And they said no.

01:30:56.000 The amount of money they're making is so insane.

01:30:59.000 And it's mostly tourists, honestly.

01:31:02.000 They make that much money from horse-drawn carriages?

01:31:04.000 Tons.

01:31:05.000 Tons.

01:31:06.000 From other countries of people that have different ideas of animal respect towards animals than we do.

01:31:11.000 Oh, so it's mostly foreigners riding in the horse rank? 1.00

01:31:13.000 I don't think there's a lot of people.

01:31:13.000 There's been a lot of white people in those countries.

01:31:15.000 Oh, really?

01:31:15.000 Well, Polish people who are white.

01:31:17.000 Russian, white, white.

01:31:18.000 Goofy fucks.

01:31:19.000 Yeah, maybe that.

01:31:20.000 Oh, we're in a horse.

01:31:20.000 Yeah.

01:31:21.000 It's so romantic.

01:31:23.000 We're out in the air.

01:31:28.000 It'd be so much sicker.

01:31:29.000 I pitched them like do robot horses, like sick dinosaurs, do like a dinosaur trolley ride or something around the city.

01:31:35.000 Jamie, I sent you that thing about the lady that's now in charge of housing in New York. 0.94

01:31:35.000 That'd be so much sick. 0.94

01:31:39.000 This is wild.

01:31:41.000 This one's what she wants to like kill real estate value. 1.00

01:31:47.000 That's her idea. 0.50

01:31:49.000 Like she wants to literally make housing more affordable. 0.99

01:31:52.000 She wants to kill real estate value. 1.00

01:31:54.000 It's an inelastic good.

01:31:55.000 You can't.

01:31:55.000 Well, she's, it's moronic.

01:31:58.000 Oh, this woman. 0.95

01:31:59.000 Listen to this.

01:31:59.000 Listen to this lady.

01:32:00.000 And she has like a million dollar house? 0.99

01:32:01.000 Her mom does.

01:32:02.000 Oh.

01:32:03.000 Well, of course.

01:32:04.000 A housing is owned by a collective, and people are paying 40% of their income in order to live in their housing.

01:32:10.000 If your income is zero, you pay zero.

01:32:12.000 If your income is $500,000 a year, you're paying 30% of that.

01:32:15.000 And the government is providing the sort of government is the sort of owner, or not even the owner.

01:32:23.000 The government doesn't have to be the owner, but the government is what's making sure all of that sort of works in cash flows.

01:32:29.000 The debt to GDP ratio right now is the highest since World War II.

01:32:33.000 So how can the federal government also afford to start subsidizing rental housing costs?

01:32:40.000 The federal government prints money.

01:32:41.000 The federal government can provide money for that.

01:32:44.000 So it's by printing money.

01:32:46.000 Sure.

01:32:47.000 That's her idea. 0.50

01:32:48.000 Print money.

01:32:49.000 The federal government prints money to provide housing, jack up interest rates, jack up the fucking debt, print money to provide housing, and everyone pays 30% for housing.

01:33:02.000 First of all, why are you talking to me in a hoodie?

01:33:07.000 What, like, what mental illness is that?

01:33:10.000 Like, how dare you?

01:33:11.000 First of all, you look like powder.

01:33:13.000 You look like, yeah, like, first of all, first of all, get a blowout, throw some mascara.

01:33:17.000 Like, we're, are we professionals anymore?

01:33:20.000 You're in a Costco hoodie and a t-shirt.

01:33:23.000 Like, what are we doing?

01:33:24.000 Well, you've seen, they've confronted her about these ideas and she breaks down crying.

01:33:27.000 But she didn't even know what she's saying.

01:33:28.000 She's like, well, sort of, like, she was kind of.

01:33:30.000 We won't own it.

01:33:32.000 Her training was UCB.

01:33:33.000 Like, she's just improvising an idea.

01:33:35.000 No, the government does that. 0.57

01:33:36.000 She's not even making eye contact.

01:33:38.000 Like, damn.

01:33:39.000 Well, a lot of these wokeys, they come from rich families. 1.00

01:33:42.000 They feel bad about being privileged.

01:33:46.000 And one specifically she said that was going to really impact white people.

01:33:51.000 What is fascinating about that is that because I think she believes she's coming from the moral high ground, I think this is what's really sort of someone who I feel like is similar to you.

01:34:00.000 And then I'm like, I was as liberal.

01:34:03.000 I had blue hair, you guys.

01:34:06.000 I remember when you had blue hair.

01:34:07.000 I rescue pit bulls.

01:34:08.000 Like, it doesn't get any more liberal than me.

01:34:10.000 Like, it doesn't get any more.

01:34:12.000 But the whole idea with being liberal is like, you had me at, we're not racist.

01:34:17.000 Everyone's equal.

01:34:18.000 Right.

01:34:19.000 But, you know, diversity, but then it turns into diversity.

01:34:23.000 Communism.

01:34:23.000 Diversity, but not diversity of thought.

01:34:27.000 Right.

01:34:28.000 The hypocrisy of it got, and I think that as comics, we're people who, you know, I may not be an expert in politics, but I'm an expert on hypocrisy.

01:34:37.000 When you grow up around alcoholics who say, I love you, and then their behaviors in Congress, you study, you look for patterns of hypocrisy.

01:34:44.000 That's just what we're wired to do.

01:34:45.000 So it just started to just be like, hold on, you know, we don't believe in gender, but we need a female president. 0.98

01:34:51.000 You're like, huh?

01:34:53.000 And then it's like, my body, my choice, unless it's a baby that needs a vaccine for hepatitis B, which comes from butt sex. 0.96

01:35:00.000 And sharing needles.

01:35:00.000 Like, what do you, right?

01:35:01.000 And sharing needles.

01:35:03.000 And then, you know, we believe in climate change and sea is rising, but we live on the coast.

01:35:07.000 Like, would you buy a house on the beach if you truly believed that the seas, you know, we believe in recycling, but why can't you give Andrew Yang another shot?

01:35:15.000 Like, why won't you give, where did Betto go?

01:35:19.000 Remember Betto O'Rourke?

01:35:20.000 Oh, that guy was a mess.

01:35:22.000 But any more so than any other person?

01:35:23.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, he's a mess.

01:35:25.000 Like, worse than.

01:35:27.000 I mean, they're all a mess.

01:35:27.000 No.

01:35:29.000 Like, when you have these blanket progressive ideas, you've attached yourself to an ideology, and that ideology you'll defend because it's your identity.

01:35:38.000 It's who you are.

01:35:38.000 It's you.

01:35:39.000 But didn't he, he at least seemed, you know, I didn't know that much about what, from what I knew, he made a joke about his wife taking care of the kids, you know, and the left was like, you're sexist.

01:35:50.000 I hate women. 1.00

01:35:50.000 It was like, this, but what I saw with her was this idea of I'm so moral that I don't even have to make a good argument. 1.00

01:35:58.000 And the left started, stopped making an argument or even outlining what they're just saying.

01:36:04.000 Well, no, I'm moral and I'm better than you and I don't have to even make an argument.

01:36:07.000 Well, that, I mean, I don't know when she gave that interview.

01:36:10.000 So let's suppose she gave that interview a long time ago before she had this job and she was just saying, this is what ideally I would like.

01:36:18.000 And then she gets the job, right?

01:36:20.000 And now when she's, what is her official job?

01:36:24.000 2021 was the interview.

01:36:26.000 The Office of Office to Protect Tenants.

01:36:30.000 So was she working for that office back then?

01:36:32.000 No, no, no, no.

01:36:33.000 She would have been, I think, on Mamdani's. 0.95

01:36:35.000 I don't even know if he was running.

01:36:36.000 He wouldn't have been running back in 2021, would he?

01:36:38.000 Right.

01:36:39.000 Well, she definitely was doing podcasts with him back then.

01:36:42.000 Well, she definitely just got out of soul cycle in this video. 1.00

01:36:46.000 But yeah, I don't know what her actual position was back at the time.

01:36:48.000 She might have been on his campaign. 0.95

01:36:50.000 Okay, so this was reason and they were having this conversation with her.

01:36:54.000 And so to lead the city's office to protect tenants.

01:36:58.000 Look, there's definitely slumlords. 0.99

01:37:00.000 You should definitely protect tenants.

01:37:02.000 There's definitely shitty owners and landlords that are.

01:37:06.000 She's basically saying government housing.

01:37:08.000 Yeah, but what she's saying is crazy.

01:37:10.000 Like taking 30% of whatever you make.

01:37:13.000 That's nuts.

01:37:14.000 So if you make a billion dollars a year, if you're Elon Musk or whoever it is, you have to make 30%.

01:37:20.000 That's bananas.

01:37:20.000 Yeah.

01:37:21.000 The thing about New York, and maybe this is, you know, and I don't, I don't even know what's, you know, side anything an idea makes anybody on anymore.

01:37:30.000 Sometimes I'll say someone and people will be like, oh, so you're like alt-left.

01:37:33.000 And I'm like, I don't know.

01:37:33.000 I just thought that was a good idea.

01:37:35.000 Then people be like, oh, so you're like super conservative.

01:37:36.000 I'm like, no, adopt, don't shop.

01:37:38.000 Yeah.

01:37:39.000 You got it.

01:37:40.000 Don't shop, don't adopt.

01:37:41.000 And so New York is expensive.

01:37:44.000 That's the deal.

01:37:45.000 If you don't have, you can't, I remember one time going to Howard Stern's house and Howard Stern is, he's got more money than, and it was like still in, he was able to get two, buy two floors of a, but it's still like an apartment.

01:37:59.000 You know what I mean?

01:38:00.000 It's like New York, this is what whatever $100 million, whatever, gets you in New York.

01:38:04.000 Like, I know it's not.

01:38:05.000 It's still not that big.

01:38:06.000 Like, like, I know.

01:38:07.000 My horse's state.

01:38:08.000 Yeah, my horse's stable is like twice the size of this.

01:38:10.000 But if you want to live in the city for convenience, that's what it costs.

01:38:14.000 That's right.

01:38:15.000 And if you're Jeffrey Epstein, somebody donates you a house.

01:38:15.000 So it's like.

01:38:18.000 That's right.

01:38:19.000 Or an office on the Harvard campus.

01:38:22.000 I love it when people that are professors at Harvard are like, I was professor at Harvard.

01:38:27.000 Like, well, so Epstein had an office too.

01:38:29.000 But like, okay, I feel like it's just like, New York's supposed to be expensive.

01:38:33.000 That's the deal, you know?

01:38:35.000 And, you know, I had a place there for like a year.

01:38:38.000 I remember I was in like Chelsea area.

01:38:40.000 And because I just want to go back and forth.

01:38:42.000 I was like, there's something about New York that does really put a fire under your ass.

01:38:46.000 Like I remember, you know, actually it was dice back in the day.

01:38:51.000 I used to just ask comics, like, you know, because you're just, you're a nobody and you're just starting and you're in the hallway with a legend.

01:38:57.000 Like, what do you say?

01:38:58.000 You know, and I would always just go, like, if you have any advice, happy to hear it.

01:39:03.000 You know, some people love giving advice.

01:39:04.000 Other people, I wasn't like going up to Bill Burr.

01:39:06.000 Like, help me.

01:39:07.000 Like, I could read the vibe.

01:39:09.000 And he said, sleep, like, get as much sleep as you can.

01:39:12.000 And then he was like, when you make it, make sure you don't get too comfortable.

01:39:16.000 Because as comics, we still need to kind of.

01:39:19.000 And I think that for a long time.

01:39:21.000 For a long time, I think I took bad advice that maybe I had just gleaned.

01:39:25.000 I don't remember anyone giving it to me of like, you have to be crazy to be funny or your life has to be a mess to be funny.

01:39:31.000 I think a lot of comics hold on to that.

01:39:33.000 If I ever get happy or have a kid or I'm in a healthy relationship, I won't be as funny.

01:39:38.000 I don't think that's true.

01:39:39.000 I actually think it freed up bandwidth.

01:39:41.000 Like getting out of the way.

01:39:42.000 It doesn't have to be true, but it can be true.

01:39:44.000 It can be.

01:39:45.000 That's right.

01:39:45.000 Well, comfort can make people fat too.

01:39:47.000 They can get lazy.

01:39:49.000 But also, it's like if you're not, you know, that's why I go to the grocery store.

01:39:52.000 I got, you know, not that I, you know, wouldn't, but like, I, you got to make sure that you're still in the trenches and that you still don't, you don't make your life so easy that you're not disassociated.

01:40:02.000 You're not disconnected from the outside world.

01:40:04.000 And just atrophied, like, and less resilient and, you know, and, you know, so what am I talking about?

01:40:04.000 That's right.

01:40:13.000 This is, this is where mom brain does come in. 1.00

01:40:15.000 You were talking about New York City?

01:40:16.000 New York City.

01:40:16.000 So I'm in New York City and I just wanted to write new stuff.

01:40:19.000 It was like things are going well.

01:40:20.000 I bought a house and I was like, you know, New York's just, you're just a little more of a dog fight.

01:40:24.000 And I wanted to go to the cellar and, you know, the stand and all these places.

01:40:27.000 And I'm in this apartment.

01:40:28.000 It's probably eight right before the pandemic.

01:40:32.000 Oh.

01:40:32.000 Yeah.

01:40:33.000 You got an apartment in New York before the pandemic?

01:40:35.000 For like it was, I was already out of it probably six months before.

01:40:38.000 So you were going back and forth?

01:40:39.000 I had it for a year.

01:40:40.000 I was going back and forth.

01:40:41.000 Because I also was like touring so much that I would go, okay, if I'm going to be in, you know, Florida at the end of, you know, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, I should just go to New York because then I'm going to North Carolina that Thursday anyway.

01:40:52.000 I was just like doing clubs to work on the new hour.

01:40:54.000 And then you're single, so it's easy.

01:40:54.000 Like I might be able to do that.

01:40:56.000 Exactly.

01:40:57.000 And let me just stay on the East Coast, right?

01:40:57.000 Exactly.

01:40:59.000 And let me just like do a software update.

01:41:02.000 It's like, Ari made me go on a hike with him once and he's like, you need to go to Somalia for a year with no phone.

01:41:08.000 I was like, I'll just, how about I get a place in New York?

01:41:09.000 Ari's ridiculous. 1.00

01:41:11.000 His ideas are so ridiculous.

01:41:12.000 I'll go to Little Italy.

01:41:13.000 How about that?

01:41:13.000 Should you go to Tibet?

01:41:15.000 Yeah.

01:41:16.000 She's living a yurt in Mongolia.

01:41:18.000 And I remember like every time I would turn on the bathtub, the toilet would, the effluvium from the toilet would come through the bathtub.

01:41:26.000 It was like some wild dude.

01:41:28.000 And then there was also an elevator in the building that people kick it off on your floor.

01:41:33.000 So half the time I'd be sleeping in like a bunch of dudes were just like, get off, you know.

01:41:37.000 And I had this plumber come and I was like, oh, can you help with the shit, the gutter going into the bath?

01:41:43.000 One thing that's relaxing is a bath.

01:41:45.000 And then I'm just like in sewage.

01:41:46.000 And he was like, it's New York.

01:41:49.000 And I was like, oh, but like, can you fix it?

01:41:52.000 Like, his job is just going around to people and reminding them they live in New York and this is the deal.

01:41:52.000 He's like, nah.

01:41:58.000 There's no way to stop the fucking sewer water from the business. 0.99

01:42:00.000 He's like, I could make it, but like, that's not, it's just, this is, and this is part of why like Trump won, like, like infrastructure.

01:42:07.000 You know, there's pipes explode all the time because they're just hitting their limit of being, you know, 100, whatever years old.

01:42:14.000 Like, but New York is the place you go when you kind of, you know, want to be in a dogfight on a daily basis.

01:42:20.000 You're going to be spending more.

01:42:21.000 Every time you sit down, it's $100.

01:42:23.000 You know, it's even if you get affordable housing in New York, like a bottle of water, food, like everything's expensive there.

01:42:28.000 You know?

01:42:28.000 Right.

01:42:29.000 Because it has to be brought in.

01:42:30.000 It's emotionally expensive.

01:42:31.000 It's literally expensive, figuratively expensive.

01:42:32.000 Like it's, you know, I forgot.

01:42:34.000 This lady's going to reduce all that. 1.00

01:42:36.000 It's going to make everything valueless.

01:42:40.000 Like, but why would you want to take the value?

01:42:42.000 Yeah.

01:42:42.000 I mean, there's things that are artificial value, like art and stuff like that, but land is a- What's probably going to do is it's probably going to lead to some sort of a Republican government there.

01:42:52.000 They're probably going to be a lot of backlash.

01:42:54.000 People are probably going to organize, probably going to realize that you can't have communism, and that it'll swing the other way.

01:43:01.000 Because everyone's kind of leaving, right?

01:43:02.000 All the people with money are leaving New York.

01:43:04.000 They live in New York.

01:43:05.000 So they're saying, like, fucking Robert De Niro was talking about it.

01:43:08.000 Whoa.

01:43:09.000 He's like the king of New York.

01:43:10.000 He's like, hey, he's his savings.

01:43:11.000 Find out if that's accurate.

01:43:12.000 But also, it might have been a fake quote.

01:43:14.000 They need to use everybody's tax dollars to pay for all this, but all the taxpayers are leaving.

01:43:18.000 That are big money.

01:43:19.000 Exactly.

01:43:20.000 But if they're taxing everybody.

01:43:22.000 The thing is, it's like you can't just tax your way out of problems because we know that that money goes and it's grossly inefficient what they do with it.

01:43:31.000 The government is not good at using your money.

01:43:34.000 They've never been good.

01:43:35.000 There's not like one example of the government doing an amazing job with your money.

01:43:39.000 Originated as satire.

01:43:41.000 There it is.

01:43:42.000 It's fake.

01:43:44.000 I mean, he owns like hotels there.

01:43:46.000 He does like the film festival there and everything.

01:43:48.000 He's like, yeah.

01:43:48.000 Right.

01:43:49.000 Oh, he loves it there.

01:43:50.000 He's like the guy.

01:43:51.000 People stand outside his house and yell at him.

01:43:53.000 In New York.

01:43:53.000 Crazy Trump people.

01:43:55.000 I mean, they know where he lives.

01:43:56.000 So they stand outside his house and yell at him.

01:43:57.000 Fuck you, Bobby.

01:43:59.000 Good for everybody.

01:44:00.000 Trump won, Bobby.

01:44:01.000 You fucking loser.

01:44:05.000 That's the crazy thing about living in New York.

01:44:07.000 Somebody just walked right up to your door.

01:44:09.000 If you have one of those walk-ups, knock, knock, knock. 1.00

01:44:11.000 It's the sidewalk is in front of your house.

01:44:13.000 That's what De Niro lives.

01:44:15.000 Let's go knock.

01:44:16.000 Didn't some crazy person break into his house recently?

01:44:19.000 An ex-wife? 0.55

01:44:20.000 Like a lady. 1.00

01:44:20.000 Oh. 1.00

01:44:21.000 I think like some crazy lady stalker broke into his house when he wasn't there. 1.00

01:44:25.000 Lady stalkers can really get far. 1.00

01:44:28.000 Because no one thinks that they're.

01:44:31.000 I don't want to talk about one too much, but there's one in my life who can just.

01:44:34.000 Serial burglar accused of breaking into Robert De Niro's New York City townhouse went on new crime spree after release on bail.

01:44:42.000 Did they know it was Robert De Niro?

01:44:43.000 2023.

01:44:44.000 Yeah.

01:44:45.000 Who is this person?

01:44:46.000 How do they know he lives?

01:44:48.000 Serial burglar Shanice Villaz was allegedly caught red-handed trying to steal Oscar-winning actors' Christmas presents.

01:44:56.000 Whoa.

01:44:57.000 She's the Grinch.

01:45:00.000 She was released from Rikers on May 3rd.

01:45:02.000 Since then, she's been charged with at least two more thefts, including one in which she allegedly snuck into a Columbia University building and slugged a security guard.

01:45:11.000 She's a villain. 1.00

01:45:13.000 I love like a Christmas present marauder.

01:45:17.000 Well, she was charged with stealing $416 worth of merchandise from a TJ Max s on 6th Avenue. 0.87

01:45:23.000 You can get a lot for that amount.

01:45:24.000 Yeah.

01:45:25.000 A TJ Maxx.

01:45:27.000 That's like most of the story.

01:45:28.000 She was busted again.

01:45:29.000 Let me see her face.

01:45:30.000 See if I can see Craig.

01:45:31.000 Yep.

01:45:31.000 Crazy.

01:45:32.000 Look at her eyebrows.

01:45:33.000 Are those shaved?

01:45:33.000 Look at her face up.

01:45:35.000 Yeah, you got me.

01:45:36.000 Whatever.

01:45:38.000 Whatever.

01:45:40.000 Poor Robert.

01:45:41.000 I mean, like, what, like, if you're stealing Robert De Niro's Christmas presents, like, what's she going to do with an aura ring?

01:45:48.000 Security guard patrolling the building around 6.30 p.m. spotted tools sitting near an open window that should have been locked shut.

01:45:55.000 And then found Avila's inside the building.

01:45:56.000 Did she use tools? 1.00

01:45:57.000 Filling up her bag with various items according to a criminal complaint.

01:46:00.000 Yeah.

01:46:01.000 She used tools, broke into the house. 1.00

01:46:03.000 Bro, get a fucking dog.

01:46:04.000 Get a Belgian mouth. 0.99

01:46:06.000 Get a meat missile.

01:46:07.000 People not having dogs.

01:46:08.000 Like, what are you doing, man?

01:46:10.000 I don't know how to convince people.

01:46:11.000 I mean, yeah, I never have problems like that.

01:46:13.000 I leave all my doors unlocked.

01:46:15.000 Well, I wouldn't do that.

01:46:15.000 I'm like, I wish a motherfucker would.

01:46:17.000 Whoa.

01:46:18.000 I mean, I have large dogs.

01:46:21.000 Yeah, but still, you can shoot your dogs pretty easy.

01:46:24.000 And then, so your new dog was Marshall, like, instantly like loved him.

01:46:28.000 Oh, of course.

01:46:29.000 They're best friends.

01:46:30.000 But the new dog's also like a little anti-wolf.

01:46:34.000 They've taken wolves and turned them into these cute, cuddly, little things you can carry around with you.

01:46:38.000 When I look at that, that to me is like, I feel like humans were kind of like, this is never going to change.

01:46:45.000 But things do change fast sometimes.

01:46:47.000 Like, you know, like smoking.

01:46:49.000 I remember when I first moved to LA, people were smoking inside, and then I remember people going outside to smoke.

01:46:56.000 Like it just, in our lifetime, we like watched a huge change.

01:47:00.000 They banned smoking in bars.

01:47:02.000 Yeah, huge cataclysmic changes can happen, you know.

01:47:06.000 But that's just because the people that were working in the bars were getting fucking cancer.

01:47:10.000 So if the thing is, like, I want to be able to smoke in a bar, that's great.

01:47:14.000 But what about the poor waitress? 1.00

01:47:15.000 That's right, the second hands, right?

01:47:16.000 This lady who just wants to make a living and doesn't even smoke, now she has lung cancer. 1.00

01:47:20.000 That's crazy.

01:47:21.000 So that is a liability for the organization, for the city.

01:47:25.000 Totally.

01:47:26.000 It's bad for everybody.

01:47:27.000 Pregnant women can't come drink at the bar. 1.00

01:47:27.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:47:29.000 Right.

01:47:29.000 Go outside.

01:47:30.000 You can't drink if you're pregnant. 1.00

01:47:32.000 You're kidding.

01:47:32.000 I know.

01:47:33.000 Now you tell.

01:47:33.000 What?

01:47:34.000 Damn it, Joe.

01:47:35.000 But also, you can get hippie shot. 0.74

01:47:38.000 I'm obsessed with the things that are so dangerous that used to just be places like in shoe stores.

01:47:45.000 They used to have little x-ray machines.

01:47:47.000 Shoe stores?

01:47:48.000 Yep.

01:47:48.000 And people started getting foot cancer that worked there because all day they just put their foot in the x-ray machine.

01:47:52.000 What?

01:47:53.000 Because that's how they used to.

01:47:54.000 I remember because there was a shoe store where my mom lived and it has like an old antique one.

01:48:00.000 An old antique antique one with a little x-ray machine.

01:48:03.000 That's crazy.

01:48:04.000 Crazy.

01:48:05.000 And if you're working there and you're bored and you're just sticking your foot in it all day.

01:48:08.000 That's nuts.

01:48:09.000 I never knew that.

01:48:11.000 That's how they would take your foot size. 0.61

01:48:15.000 Isn't it nuts how like new technology, they have no idea it's killing people?

01:48:18.000 No clue.

01:48:19.000 Do you know about the radium girls?

01:48:22.000 Love it already.

01:48:23.000 Oh, this is a horrible story.

01:48:25.000 So when you have a watch like, you know, like a Rolex, and it's at night, you could see its loom.

01:48:33.000 So during the daytime, it charges up with the light.

01:48:35.000 And at night, you can see the indicators.

01:48:38.000 They light up.

01:48:39.000 They glow in the dark.

01:48:40.000 The reason they glow in the dark is because they're fucking radioactive.

01:48:43.000 Yeah.

01:48:44.000 So they paint, not now, I don't think, but they paint them.

01:48:47.000 And so these girls were touching the tips of this fucking paintbrush when they were painting loom on these dials. 1.00

01:48:53.000 And they were all getting horrific cancer where they were getting holes in their face.

01:48:58.000 See if you can find some of the images.

01:49:00.000 Oh, bummer.

01:49:01.000 Well, there's some images of irradium sickness.

01:49:05.000 Are these just your porn searches, Jamie?

01:49:06.000 We're looking for the uranium girls. 1.00

01:49:08.000 These are the radium girls. 0.90

01:49:09.000 That's what I look like.

01:49:10.000 Bummer.

01:49:10.000 That's what all this is.

01:49:11.000 Radium girls is like, I think there's a documentary.

01:49:14.000 Yeah, there is.

01:49:15.000 No, there's a movie from 2020.

01:49:17.000 Yeah, because that's Joey.

01:49:18.000 The Dark Story of America's Shining Women.

01:49:21.000 Well, it's like all kinds of stuff like this.

01:49:24.000 Like Christopher Reeves' wife got lung cancer from his machine.

01:49:28.000 Oh, God.

01:49:29.000 I know.

01:49:30.000 Really?

01:49:31.000 Nah, that kind of stuff kills me.

01:49:33.000 I always think about nail girls, the girls that are in there doing acrylic nails. 1.00

01:49:33.000 Oh, my God. 1.00

01:49:37.000 Oh, you're just inhaling this all day.

01:49:39.000 I know, and they wear like a fucking mask, like a surgeon's mask.

01:49:43.000 That's just so they can talk shit about us.

01:49:45.000 But that surgeon's mask is not going to help you from the fucking fumes.

01:49:48.000 Yeah.

01:49:49.000 People that work around toxic chemicals, I was reading this thing about women that clean, that women that work with cleaning solvents all day, you get lung cancer. 1.00

01:49:58.000 And it's like they're smoking three packs a day.

01:50:00.000 Totally.

01:50:00.000 Like the woman that's been with me, she's like my family who helps me maintain my house.

01:50:05.000 It's all, we make it.

01:50:06.000 It's all clean, you know, like not ammonia and stuff.

01:50:10.000 Yeah, It's like vinegar and well, you should just have that in your house.

01:50:14.000 Tea tree and stuff.

01:50:15.000 Even if not, if it's not you cleaning, you don't want that shit in your fucking house, period. 0.95

01:50:20.000 Yeah, but then like as women, then we like spray our hair and put a bunch of makeup on, you know. 1.00

01:50:24.000 Yeah.

01:50:25.000 We're all high at all times, just chock full of chemicals.

01:50:27.000 Like it's so wild you think about the amount of endocrine disruptors we put on a daily basis.

01:50:31.000 Pumping botulism into your face to keep it from moving.

01:50:34.000 You know what?

01:50:34.000 I don't do it anymore.

01:50:35.000 Ah, congratulations on your eyebrows.

01:50:38.000 Your forehead moves.

01:50:40.000 Your eyebrows have been freed.

01:50:43.000 It really is.

01:50:43.000 My hairline went back.

01:50:45.000 Now, you said you've been doing the red light.

01:50:47.000 Red light is the key.

01:50:48.000 Like red light, it brings collagen to your skin.

01:50:48.000 Yep.

01:50:51.000 It gives your skin a more youthful appearance.

01:50:54.000 It like helps your entire body heal better.

01:50:57.000 It helps your mitochondria.

01:50:59.000 But we were talking about this before the podcast for both of us.

01:51:01.000 It's improved our vision.

01:51:03.000 That's right.

01:51:03.000 It really has.

01:51:04.000 Like, my vision was on a downward, like, very steady.

01:51:08.000 Like, I have these things here, these reading glasses.

01:51:11.000 I don't use those at all anymore.

01:51:13.000 I can completely read my phone now with no reading glasses.

01:51:16.000 And before, it was a blurry mess.

01:51:17.000 Also, by the way, everyone I know with kids, like they're, and I'll be exaggerating a little bit, but their kids are getting glasses so young and having eye stuff so young.

01:51:27.000 They're staring at screens all the time.

01:51:29.000 You know, one of the things that you're supposed to do is if you're staring at something like really close to your face all the time, you should take breaks and look at things that are far away.

01:51:38.000 Because otherwise, I guess your cornea reshapes and like your eyes literally become more accustomed to trying to look at things closer.

01:51:45.000 It just fucks your eyes up.

01:51:46.000 Right, right.

01:51:47.000 And then the light from the screen, that kind of stuff.

01:51:50.000 I know.

01:51:50.000 I try to do the blue light glasses as much as I can.

01:51:53.000 The amount of glasses and lights I have in my house right now.

01:51:56.000 It looks like a fucking chemistry studio.

01:51:58.000 But yes, I got, so I do red light on my skin.

01:52:01.000 And because I was like, you know, look, the Botox thing is like TV executive ages ago when I was truly like in my 20s, the way they sell you on Botox is they say it's preventative.

01:52:12.000 And you go, oh, yeah, okay.

01:52:13.000 In your 20s and you're like, I was like 27.

01:52:17.000 I was like making a TV show, a couple TV shows, and they were like, well, she looks tired.

01:52:20.000 I'm like, yeah, because I'm tired.

01:52:22.000 Because you keep sending me notes at two in the morning to take out all the good jokes.

01:52:25.000 Like, of course I'm tired.

01:52:27.000 And so, you know, they say to do it so that you don't get wrinkles later.

01:52:34.000 And then you're like, okay, well, now I'm 35.

01:52:36.000 Like, why am I still getting it?

01:52:38.000 Like, shouldn't I enjoy the prevention now?

01:52:40.000 Like, it just sort of becomes a do this forever.

01:52:42.000 And I was like, I don't even know who I'm doing this for at this point.

01:52:45.000 You know, I just was like, I guess I'm not.

01:52:48.000 Especially if you just want to be a comic and you don't want to be cast in TV roles anymore.

01:52:52.000 Yeah, but I'm in movie roles.

01:52:53.000 Even in TV roles, you can't act if you don't have expression on your face.

01:52:57.000 It's the whole thing.

01:52:58.000 You know, we've all seen actors where we're like, you just see one teardrop go down.

01:53:02.000 Yo, I'm right here.

01:53:03.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:53:04.000 You know, Brotox, the rise of bread.

01:53:05.000 Brotox is weird.

01:53:07.000 I shouldn't, but I do.

01:53:09.000 I judge men very badly when I think they have Botox.

01:53:13.000 When I see a man's face doesn't move, I'm like, I am not listening to anything coming out of your mouth.

01:53:19.000 Especially when it's hot on a guy.

01:53:22.000 Why not enjoy the benefit of age looking good on a man?

01:53:26.000 Yeah, because a certain amount of age, they're like, oh my God, I'm so old.

01:53:29.000 When you get to like that Stallone age, like he was at the White House receiving some fucking award.

01:53:36.000 You know, there's a bunch of guys that went to the White House and got awards.

01:53:39.000 Did you ever see that?

01:53:40.000 Sorry.

01:53:41.000 Awards are so silly.

01:53:43.000 You stand there and they put it around your neck.

01:53:45.000 You're like, yep, I deserve this.

01:53:46.000 But Stallone is there, and it looks so crazy.

01:53:50.000 Like, he used to be my canary in a coal mine because I'm like, wow, you could be 70 and be jacked.

01:53:55.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:53:56.000 Like, this is awesome.

01:53:57.000 You know, because like he kept it together for a long fucking time.

01:54:01.000 Like, he was in great shape for a long time.

01:54:04.000 But now he looks like he's just doing a bunch of stuff.

01:54:08.000 I think everybody.

01:54:09.000 Look at him there.

01:54:10.000 That's crazy.

01:54:11.000 First of all, that hairline is crazy.

01:54:13.000 This whole lineup of people are batshit.

01:54:16.000 Can you print this out so I can just put it in my bathroom to just- Is that Pacino?

01:54:21.000 Who's the guy in the line?

01:54:22.000 We should know the answer.

01:54:24.000 Is that Gene Simmons?

01:54:25.000 The woman? 0.87

01:54:25.000 Yeah. 0.87

01:54:26.000 No, Gene Simmons is there.

01:54:28.000 Is this the trans, the translation?

01:54:31.000 He's 79 years old.

01:54:34.000 Let me see.

01:54:36.000 Well, that was his way.

01:54:38.000 Yeah, but it's just like.

01:54:39.000 So who's there?

01:54:40.000 Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons.

01:54:41.000 What was.

01:54:42.000 And Stallone.

01:54:44.000 Who's the guy in the back?

01:54:45.000 Are these the Benjamin Button awards?

01:54:46.000 Like, what is the actual award?

01:54:48.000 Who's the guy in the far right?

01:54:49.000 I see what their list is.

01:54:50.000 Is this show list?

01:54:52.000 It doesn't say?

01:54:53.000 Oh, there you go.

01:54:55.000 Michael Crawford, whoever that is.

01:54:59.000 I'm sure he's been in a bunch of stuff I enjoy.

01:55:01.000 Like entertainers.

01:55:03.000 So they all got a big award.

01:55:03.000 Yeah, okay.

01:55:05.000 But it's just the way Stallone looked.

01:55:07.000 It was like, God, what are you doing, man?

01:55:09.000 It looks like a facelift.

01:55:12.000 Is it Trump Kennedy Center?

01:55:14.000 Oh.

01:55:15.000 Oh, yeah, sure.

01:55:16.000 So he was acknowledging his 80s heroes with awards.

01:55:20.000 I used to like you in the 80s.

01:55:22.000 But by the way, just ask them to go to dinner.

01:55:24.000 Like, how insecure that you have to give an award?

01:55:26.000 Like, there was, what was it?

01:55:28.000 Was it Cosby that Harvard gave him a fake award just to see if he would show up and he showed up?

01:55:34.000 Oh, really?

01:55:34.000 Like how narcissists will just show up to accept like greatest comedy person ever.

01:55:39.000 And he like showed up and accepted it and they didn't.

01:55:42.000 And they had to get him from the airport.

01:55:43.000 They were like, fuck, this was like a joke.

01:55:45.000 Yeah.

01:55:45.000 Really?

01:55:46.000 Are you sure?

01:55:47.000 Jamie?

01:55:48.000 I don't know anything about that.

01:55:50.000 Go to Blue Sky.

01:55:52.000 Go to Blue Sky.

01:55:53.000 The Hasty Pudding or whatever Harvard's comedy troop is.

01:55:57.000 Oh, they did it?

01:55:58.000 Did like a prank where they'll give celebrities awards.

01:56:02.000 Just to see if they show up.

01:56:03.000 And Cosby showed up.

01:56:03.000 Yeah.

01:56:04.000 That's actually funny.

01:56:06.000 Conan and his friend.

01:56:07.000 Oh, okay.

01:56:07.000 Conan O'Brien convinced Cosby that he was awarded fake the Harvard Lampoon's Lifetime Achievement in Comedy to be presented at Harvard.

01:56:14.000 Bill Cosby actually flew all the way in a private plane to be picked up by Conan in his parents' station wagon.

01:56:20.000 A modified bowling trophy was given as an award.

01:56:23.000 Oh! 0.60

01:56:26.000 Like he showed up to get it.

01:56:28.000 That's a lot of fun.

01:56:28.000 Imagine.

01:56:29.000 That is hilarious.

01:56:30.000 Imagine.

01:56:31.000 So that was Conan when he was in Harvard.

01:56:33.000 Yeah.

01:56:33.000 Oh, that's so funny.

01:56:34.000 So many fun writers came out of Harvard.

01:56:36.000 Out of Harvard, yeah.

01:56:37.000 Lampoon.

01:56:38.000 Yeah.

01:56:38.000 It's kind of crazy.

01:56:39.000 I mean, it's interesting because they've, you know, not to like talk about TV dorkery, but I know a lot of them were friends with a lot of them, but like there was a little bit of like a elitism.

01:56:39.000 It's kind of crazy.

01:56:49.000 I think it's part of what made TV start becoming kind of irrelevant is these sort of like elite writers from Harvard who don't necessarily have a, you know, I think that the best comedy, everyone can see themselves in it, or it's about something that we can all kind of relate to on some level.

01:57:04.000 That's all these sort of kids going to a, you know, $70,000 a year elite school making shows like The Office and show, you know, these comedies that, you know, you know, look, like, it's, it's, a lot of my friends worked on the office.

01:57:18.000 I love you guys.

01:57:19.000 It's going to get me in trouble, but it is kind of like making fun of poor people.

01:57:21.000 It's like, wouldn't it be funny if people like worked at a paper mill and like went to Chili's?

01:57:26.000 Like, what a bunch of losers.

01:57:28.000 My family members like go to Chili's.

01:57:30.000 That is real photo.

01:57:30.000 That's Conan right there.

01:57:31.000 He was 19 when this happened.

01:57:36.000 Like they had to like scramble to pick him up.

01:57:39.000 That's actually amazing.

01:57:42.000 That's actually amazing that he did that.

01:57:45.000 That's actually amazing.

01:57:46.000 Like that is, I love the little things where when you find out someone was a sociopathic monster that you're like, we should have known.

01:57:52.000 Even though it had nothing to do with drugging women, like the fact that he showed up to receive this award.

01:57:56.000 Well, actually, the Harvard Lampoon is like a famous comedy thing.

01:58:00.000 So it would make sense that they would give him an award.

01:58:02.000 That's true.

01:58:03.000 That's true.

01:58:04.000 And before he was a monster, he was, I mean, like, you look at that image there.

01:58:07.000 That's a black and white image.

01:58:09.000 So Conan was 19.

01:58:10.000 Conan's got to be in his late 50s, right?

01:58:13.000 How old is Conan now?

01:58:14.000 Yeah, it says it was an 85.

01:58:15.000 Okay.

01:58:16.000 So he was very respected back then.

01:58:19.000 Yeah.

01:58:19.000 Like Bill Cosby was the man.

01:58:22.000 Look, that show, I mean, when I tell you, like, my top five shows, it's Cosby, you know, Martin, Mary with Children was really big.

01:58:30.000 Can you even get Cosby anymore?

01:58:32.000 Have they hid that?

01:58:33.000 Maybe not even because no one thought it was weird that he was a gynecologist that worked out of his basement.

01:58:42.000 Like, How about that one episode where he had his secret barbecue sauce that made everybody horny?

01:58:48.000 That's right.

01:58:50.000 But nobody's remembering?

01:58:53.000 How fucking who green lit that?

01:58:55.000 You're going to drug people?

01:58:56.000 Cliff Huxtable would walk up the stairs from his basement, take off plastic gloves.

01:59:01.000 Oh, because he was just touching pussies. 1.00

01:59:03.000 That would have just been inside a woman. 0.99

01:59:05.000 Oh, my God.

01:59:06.000 Presumably.

01:59:07.000 He would just be like, yeah, like, like whatever he was doing.

01:59:10.000 And then be like, anyway, so what's for dinner?

01:59:12.000 And you're like, wait, hold on.

01:59:13.000 That's nuts.

01:59:14.000 I didn't know that.

01:59:15.000 I never watched that.

01:59:15.000 He was a gynecologist, and he'd work.

01:59:17.000 I didn't even know he was a gynecologist.

01:59:18.000 Out of his house.

01:59:19.000 Oh, my God.

01:59:21.000 He would deliver babies. 0.98

01:59:22.000 Yeah, I always thought that was wild.

01:59:22.000 That's crazy.

01:59:24.000 That was so crazy.

01:59:25.000 He'd take the plastic gloves off at the top of the stairs, like, fingers.

01:59:31.000 I was dating a girl once back in the day, and she told me that her gynecologist hit on her.

01:59:34.000 And she said she was so creeped out.

01:59:36.000 Her gynecologist called her up at home and asked her out on a date.

01:59:41.000 And she was like, what?

01:59:43.000 Because he got a chance to take a look at that time.

01:59:46.000 That times are pretty good.

01:59:48.000 I mean, that's so crazy.

01:59:51.000 Your gynecologist asks you on a date, and you're at home. 0.88

01:59:54.000 And this is back, by the way, like when, I don't even, I guess they had caller ID in the 80s.

01:59:58.000 So this would be after they had caller ID.

02:00:00.000 Like, you probably think the doctor's calling you up because, like, by the way, didn't we just go on one?

02:00:06.000 He just fingered me.

02:00:07.000 Yeah, what was that?

02:00:09.000 Hold on.

02:00:09.000 What's your definition of a date?

02:00:12.000 That's what I thought.

02:00:13.000 I thought we were at the work together.

02:00:14.000 You see my pussy and my asshole. 0.95

02:00:16.000 This is nuts.

02:00:17.000 I've been in the stirrups.

02:00:18.000 You fingered me and have all my money.

02:00:19.000 Jesus Christ.

02:00:20.000 That is, I mean, it is interesting that today for a guy to become a gynecologist. 0.77

02:00:24.000 I know it was like the only way, you know, only men could be back in the day, but now for a guy to be like, I'm in med school to be a gynecologist.

02:00:29.000 Yeah, everybody's like, what?

02:00:30.000 Like, huh?

02:00:31.000 Right.

02:00:32.000 If I was a woman, I would never go to a male gynecologist.

02:00:34.000 Oh, God.

02:00:35.000 That's crazy.

02:00:36.000 No.

02:00:36.000 Just the idea.

02:00:37.000 If he's heterosexual, he's staring at your cooter and thinking about sliding up in there.

02:00:41.000 Or the opposite.

02:00:42.000 Or if he, like, doesn't care, you're like, why are you not looking?

02:00:46.000 Yeah, why'd you put gloves on?

02:00:47.000 Look at that thing. 0.92

02:00:48.000 Look at it.

02:00:48.000 Yeah.

02:00:49.000 Shine.

02:00:51.000 I put glitter on it just for you.

02:00:55.000 Do you remember that?

02:00:56.000 No.

02:00:57.000 But, butt. 1.00

02:00:58.000 Glitter?

02:00:59.000 Good enough.

02:00:59.000 Butt glitter?

02:01:01.000 For real?

02:01:02.000 No.

02:01:03.000 Remember, butt crystal. 1.00

02:01:07.000 Remember, okay.

02:01:09.000 Bedazzling, pussy be dazzling. 1.00

02:01:11.000 No way.

02:01:12.000 Yes, this was a thing.

02:01:13.000 Did that give you cancer too?

02:01:14.000 Like baby powder?

02:01:15.000 This was a thing.

02:01:16.000 Definitely something.

02:01:18.000 But yeah, there was, I'm just always fascinated by like conflating like feminism with just like, just what are we doing?

02:01:26.000 Bedazzling our pussies. 0.96

02:01:27.000 Like, we're not like, breathe the nipple or like worth it.

02:01:30.000 Why Joe wasn't off on something?

02:01:31.000 Okay, okay.

02:01:33.000 Is this William on your butts?

02:01:35.000 The hot new trend for summer, glitter butt. 0.67

02:01:38.000 That's so ridiculous.

02:01:40.000 Like, don't look at my butt, but look, it's glittery.

02:01:43.000 That's hilarious.

02:01:44.000 Glitter glitter.

02:01:44.000 Oh, that's like a super nut.

02:01:46.000 It's also the butt plug thing.

02:01:47.000 No, there was a lot of stuff.

02:01:47.000 So where are these people wearing these glitter pants?

02:01:51.000 I mean, it's not even pants.

02:01:52.000 That was another thing that hoes would do back in the day. 1.00

02:01:55.000 Remember, they would just paint their tits and you can kind of go out in public with pain on your tits like on New Year's Eve and stuff like that?

02:02:01.000 Yes, yeah.

02:02:01.000 And people go, oh, you're topless.

02:02:03.000 No, I can't pee.

02:02:04.000 And then it was like, why are you looking?

02:02:05.000 It's like, okay.

02:02:06.000 What?

02:02:06.000 Okay, these girls have glitter all over their pants.

02:02:08.000 By the way, how toxic is that shit?

02:02:11.000 That's just, hold on.

02:02:11.000 Hold on.

02:02:12.000 So we talked about the Wizard of Oz and that poor dude who had to play the Tin Man.

02:02:17.000 That guy got fucked up by that paint.

02:02:20.000 So did the woman that was the witch.

02:02:22.000 She got her face cut caught on fire.

02:02:24.000 Oh, oh, caught on fire.

02:02:26.000 Yeah.

02:02:26.000 Which, by the way, now we'd pay dermatologists to set our faces on fire.

02:02:28.000 But back then it was, that was accidental.

02:02:30.000 It was.

02:02:31.000 She's like a layer of skin off.

02:02:32.000 Yeah.

02:02:32.000 She's going to look young again.

02:02:33.000 Got to get out of that young.

02:02:34.000 Was it, what was it?

02:02:36.000 Asbestos or what?

02:02:38.000 Well, she had green paint on her face all day long. 1.00

02:02:40.000 But in Tin Man, it was.

02:02:42.000 She had like, it was aluminum, I think.

02:02:44.000 Aluminum that's correct.

02:02:45.000 Yes.

02:02:45.000 Which we put in deodorant, fine.

02:02:48.000 Not the kind you use.

02:02:48.000 I use Dr. Squatch.

02:02:50.000 It's natural.

02:02:50.000 Yeah.

02:02:51.000 Works too.

02:02:51.000 That shit lasts all day long.

02:02:53.000 Dr. Squatch is a little bit more.

02:02:54.000 Also, if I stink that.

02:02:57.000 Oh, no.

02:02:57.000 You don't want to smell me.

02:02:58.000 Oh, really?

02:02:59.000 No, no, no.

02:03:00.000 I mean, when I don't have, when I don't have deodorant on and I like work out and I hang out all day, and I'll smell myself and get disgusted.

02:03:06.000 But like, I smell myself and gag.

02:03:08.000 I'll do like wipes.

02:03:09.000 I'll just wipe it.

02:03:10.000 You know, you don't want to smell it.

02:03:12.000 That's good.

02:03:12.000 You don't want to get in there.

02:03:13.000 But we're not.

02:03:14.000 I don't know.

02:03:15.000 I just, this whole thing where we all have to smell like a moonlit path.

02:03:18.000 Yeah, but you don't want to smell like a monkey in the zoo.

02:03:20.000 That's what I smell.

02:03:21.000 I mean, I don't know.

02:03:21.000 It's kind of a power move.

02:03:23.000 I guess.

02:03:24.000 You know how they say, like, Ronnie Jackson.

02:03:25.000 When you have sex with your wife, she's plugging her. 1.00

02:03:27.000 Oh, yeah.

02:03:27.000 No, you know what?

02:03:27.000 I'm sorry.

02:03:28.000 I'm sorry to your wife.

02:03:29.000 I love her too much to encourage this.

02:03:31.000 It's like deal with my breath.

02:03:32.000 What?

02:03:33.000 Brush your fucking teeth.

02:03:35.000 Are you crazy?

02:03:35.000 But isn't there something about like smelly, if someone smells bad?

02:03:39.000 Like your wife, your BO probably smells good to her. 1.00

02:03:42.000 Huberman actually talked about this when he was on my podcast back in the day about like if someone doesn't smell good to you, it means you're probably related.

02:03:47.000 I think you need to talk to her.

02:03:48.000 She would probably correct you.

02:03:49.000 Yeah, I fucking smell gross.

02:03:53.000 I eat mostly meat.

02:03:55.000 Because you're always in ketosis.

02:03:56.000 Yeah, that's different.

02:03:57.000 Rotten meat coming out of my pores and pneumonia from sweat.

02:04:01.000 But if someone's like morning breath smells bad to you and they just, you know, like everybody's morning breath smells bad.

02:04:05.000 Yeah, that's true.

02:04:06.000 Yeah.

02:04:07.000 It's got to be really horny to make out with someone in the morning.

02:04:10.000 Like full-on make, like, you gotta, that's like, that's ultimate.

02:04:13.000 I don't give a fuck.

02:04:14.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:04:15.000 I don't care what your breast smells like. 0.99

02:04:16.000 Come here.

02:04:17.000 That's like crazy.

02:04:19.000 Just, yeah, flip me over like an adult.

02:04:21.000 Yeah.

02:04:22.000 Don't.

02:04:22.000 That's like if you don't care about yeast infections, who cares about that smell?

02:04:26.000 Let's go.

02:04:28.000 Let's fucking go.

02:04:31.000 There is something sick about once you birth a child.

02:04:36.000 You're so tapped into this like feral, like, it's just so wild that I don't even think about morning breath anymore.

02:04:42.000 It's you're just like.

02:04:43.000 Well, you're cleaning diapers all the time.

02:04:45.000 It's like when I was on Fear Factor, I didn't even flinch if someone threw up in front of me.

02:04:49.000 I'd seen so many people throw up.

02:04:51.000 Like one time my wife threw up in her car.

02:04:56.000 And this is how like I am immune to throw up.

02:04:59.000 Because some people puke if they see me.

02:05:00.000 Because of all my years on Fear Factor, I'm completely immune.

02:05:03.000 When I was a kid, if you threw up in the hallway in high school, I'd be like, which was a biological basis for that.

02:05:08.000 We probably ate the same thing in the truck.

02:05:10.000 Exactly.

02:05:11.000 That got wiped out of me on Fear Factor 100%.

02:05:14.000 She was coming home from the gym and she drank wheatgrass juice and she fucking threw up in her center console. 1.00

02:05:19.000 Yep, I've done that.

02:05:21.000 And she was crying.

02:05:22.000 She was like, human, no, I can't even clean it.

02:05:23.000 It's so disgusting.

02:05:24.000 I go, I'll clean it.

02:05:25.000 Like, I don't give a fuck.

02:05:27.000 I got in there with towels.

02:05:27.000 I cleaned the whole thing.

02:05:29.000 I cleaned her puke out.

02:05:30.000 It didn't even make me flinch.

02:05:32.000 I'd seen so many people puke.

02:05:35.000 I've seen people puke for days and days.

02:05:39.000 I mean, I did 148 episodes.

02:05:42.000 So at least 130 of those times, people had to eat something that made them throw up.

02:05:48.000 So I saw multiple people.

02:05:50.000 There's six contestants.

02:05:52.000 I saw so many people gag.

02:05:54.000 And I had to be interviewing them.

02:05:57.000 Like while they were gagging sometimes, while they were throwing up in a dumpster, I'd be talking to them.

02:06:05.000 That was such a big deal, that show.

02:06:08.000 It was so ridiculous.

02:06:10.000 Such a big deal.

02:06:11.000 You know, I took that show because I thought it was going to be canceled.

02:06:16.000 I thought, I'm going to get some jokes out of this.

02:06:17.000 They're going to sick dogs on people. 0.99

02:06:19.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

02:06:20.000 But you underestimated our deep desire for Schottenfreuda, like watching other people be scared and humiliated.

02:06:25.000 The Coliseum, basically.

02:06:26.000 Well, it was also, I underestimated the entertainment value of the competition because it was competition.

02:06:34.000 The grossness was great.

02:06:35.000 It, you know, was definitely fun to watch.

02:06:38.000 But there was also like real, like, significant competition.

02:06:43.000 Yeah.

02:06:43.000 There were some great moments.

02:06:44.000 This is one moment where this mother and her daughter beat this father and his son.

02:06:51.000 And the father and the son were assholes.

02:06:53.000 They were just the dad was like a dick.

02:06:55.000 Like, this is how you get ahead in this world.

02:06:57.000 You be a fucking dick. 0.69

02:06:58.000 And they were talking crazy shit to the set.

02:07:00.000 And then the kid fumbled and fucked things up.

02:07:03.000 And the dad fucked things up.

02:07:04.000 And the whole crew was crying.

02:07:07.000 Everybody was so happy.

02:07:08.000 Yeah.

02:07:09.000 I'm fascinated.

02:07:10.000 I'm crying if I saw it.

02:07:10.000 I'm fascinated.

02:07:12.000 I just sent Andrew Schultz a clip that I'll cry if I talk about because he was posting something about like a daughter asking his her or a gymnast who the daughter was getting attached and wouldn't let her go to the routine.

02:07:25.000 So she did it with her daughter.

02:07:26.000 And there's this, whoo, there's this video of this girl.

02:07:29.000 I think it's in Brazil.

02:07:31.000 She's doing a cooking competition. 0.96

02:07:33.000 And, you know, there's like, you know, timed cooking competitions.

02:07:36.000 And she can't open a jar. 0.97

02:07:38.000 And her dad is in the audience.

02:07:39.000 And she runs and gives it to her dad.

02:07:40.000 And her dad just opens it.

02:07:42.000 And it's like, gives me goosebumps every time.

02:07:44.000 But dad's man.

02:07:47.000 But that shit just kills me.

02:07:50.000 Oh, God, this kills me.

02:07:52.000 Oh, she runs. 1.00

02:07:53.000 She can't get it open.

02:07:55.000 Why do they make jars so fucking hard to open?

02:07:57.000 By the way, if your hands are wet.

02:07:58.000 Look at her dad.

02:07:58.000 That's her dad.

02:07:59.000 Oh, God.

02:08:00.000 Oh, God.

02:08:03.000 So this is costing all this time and he's freaking out.

02:08:03.000 Oh, no.

02:08:06.000 Oh, Jesus Christ.

02:08:09.000 Oh, God.

02:08:10.000 Oh, God.

02:08:14.000 That's cool that you can do that, though.

02:08:16.000 Because it's ridiculous that you can't like opening a jar.

02:08:16.000 Yeah.

02:08:19.000 Well, you got to hit it on the side of a thing.

02:08:22.000 Or like if you just clank it on something.

02:08:22.000 Yeah.

02:08:24.000 But it's like, I think he posted something about, you know, when like runners don't finish the race and the dad comes out and like helps him cross the finish line or something.

02:08:31.000 Oh gosh.

02:08:32.000 I love shit like that so much.

02:08:34.000 But I can't remember where we were on this now.

02:08:37.000 I'm just going to sob.

02:08:39.000 Competition.

02:08:40.000 Fear factor.

02:08:41.000 Disgusting.

02:08:41.000 Yeah.

02:08:42.000 It turned out to be fun.

02:08:43.000 That's what it is.

02:08:44.000 I think I'm fascinated by, and I'm like a football dork.

02:08:46.000 I know you're not like the biggest football fan.

02:08:47.000 Even though you are.

02:08:48.000 I can watch football.

02:08:48.000 You can go to some games.

02:08:49.000 Yeah.

02:08:50.000 I like it now.

02:08:51.000 I get it.

02:08:52.000 I watched the Texas AM versus the UT game.

02:08:58.000 It was incredible.

02:08:58.000 Holy shit.

02:08:59.000 Incredible.

02:09:00.000 And I think that what you're going for is it's almost like this gambling addiction in a way because it's like, even when your team loses, you're all losing together.

02:09:08.000 And it's, you know, you get to feel like you're a part of something.

02:09:10.000 There's so much like, you know, reptilian sort of hardwiring at play.

02:09:15.000 But for me, it's like about these goosebumps moments that you can't have every game that would take the value out of them.

02:09:21.000 Like this past season when have you been, I don't know if you're a football guy, Jamie, but Philip Rivers coming back to the Colts.

02:09:27.000 And him coming out of retirement, two major players came out of retirement this year that were like coaching.

02:09:33.000 They were done coaching their kids little league in high school.

02:09:37.000 Phillip Rivers was just coaching, you know, what a 45, 44, 45 years old.

02:09:41.000 There's a fun caveat with that too, but tell me.

02:09:43.000 He's got so many kids.

02:09:44.000 10, right?

02:09:45.000 Yeah.

02:09:46.000 He was about to hit retirement.

02:09:47.000 His five years, you have to wait to go to the Hall of Fame.

02:09:50.000 But now he just like re-upped his NFL health insurance.

02:09:55.000 So now it gets coverage for, I mean, he's rich as shit.

02:09:57.000 He doesn't really need it.

02:09:59.000 Just a little caveat of like he gets coverage for life.

02:10:01.000 Him getting away from the business.

02:10:02.000 Here's what I realized.

02:10:03.000 And I realized this at the UT game.

02:10:05.000 When you're a fan of football, you get big moments many times.

02:10:10.000 If you're a fan of a fight, you get the fight, and then one guy wins and one guy gets horribly destroyed sometimes.

02:10:19.000 Like sometimes your guy gets flatlined and you're watching your guy laid out with his toes curled, his legs stiff, his arms up in the air.

02:10:28.000 He's completely unconscious.

02:10:30.000 And the other guy is on the cage like this.

02:10:32.000 And then the medical people are taking care of your guy.

02:10:34.000 And you're like, oh, fuck.

02:10:37.000 It's the worst when you see like families and children see their dad get knocked out.

02:10:43.000 No, no, no, no.

02:10:44.000 That's so hard.

02:10:45.000 No.

02:10:45.000 That's so hard.

02:10:46.000 When you see wives crying and then the camera turns to them, you see them there.

02:10:50.000 You're like, oh, no.

02:10:54.000 It's just football's a different thing.

02:10:56.000 You know, when someone throws the ball and then the person catches it and goes across the line and you see 100,000 people.

02:11:01.000 That's right.

02:11:01.000 That's it.

02:11:03.000 And so much is the type of fan base, you know.

02:11:06.000 But like, the people in the audience feel better.

02:11:09.000 That's right.

02:11:09.000 It's like they are, they're celebrating in a different way.

02:11:12.000 Because when a fighter wins, it's an individual.

02:11:15.000 But when a team wins, it's your team.

02:11:16.000 That's right.

02:11:17.000 That's right.

02:11:17.000 That's different.

02:11:18.000 And you can make the argument on some level that, you know, not you're a part of it, but like the energy you bring.

02:11:25.000 Like when I went to the Rams game, I'm like an Eagles fan.

02:11:28.000 And Rams game, all green, all Eagles fans coming for away games.

02:11:33.000 Like, you know, it's imagine being like the Eagles and looking out at like all green in another, you know, city.

02:11:39.000 Also, is it Matt Prady?

02:11:41.000 I think it's his last name.

02:11:42.000 He was a kicker for, was it the Bills?

02:11:44.000 Both of the kickers got injured and like they didn't have a kicker.

02:11:47.000 And they're like, imagine getting the call.

02:11:49.000 You're coaching like your middle school son's whatever little league football and you get the call like, we need you.

02:11:55.000 You know?

02:11:55.000 Really?

02:11:56.000 It's like, yeah, he goes in and he kicks like the winning field goal.

02:11:59.000 This was in September, I want to say.

02:12:01.000 I love shit like that so much.

02:12:04.000 That's awesome.

02:12:05.000 You know, when you also just moments like what Saquon Barkley did last year, like jumping backwards over, like there's a video of his teammates watching him do it going, fuck that.

02:12:15.000 Like it's just, I love watching the interplay between the team members too.

02:12:18.000 It's like comics.

02:12:19.000 It's like, you know.

02:12:20.000 I get it.

02:12:21.000 I didn't like it before, but I get it way more now.

02:12:23.000 I get it way more.

02:12:25.000 Because for me, it's like a watered-down version of fighting.

02:12:27.000 I'm like, well, they just fight.

02:12:28.000 But now I get it.

02:12:29.000 It's not that.

02:12:30.000 As an audience member, it's better because you're like a part of the game.

02:12:35.000 Like we are scoring.

02:12:36.000 It's a really, it's a stupid thing to say.

02:12:38.000 We.

02:12:39.000 You never say we won that fight.

02:12:40.000 That's right.

02:12:41.000 That's right.

02:12:42.000 Also, but I think the we of it also happens to, you know, the reason I think as live performers, when you see a team like the Eagles do so, so well, and then that's the last time they played the Rams just fall apart.

02:12:54.000 You're like, what, just per what we were talking about with Fear Factor and what you're capable of when you're on TV, when you've been insulted, when your ego's been, when you're in front of your kid.

02:13:03.000 Right.

02:13:04.000 I'm not going to eat a live rat, but if my kid is watching and someone just insulted my kid, I'm a different person.

02:13:09.000 You know what I'm saying?

02:13:10.000 I will fucking fuck this rat in the ass to, you know, whatever I need to do.

02:13:13.000 Or if money's involved, I'm obsessed with sort of like the, you know, the most dangerous team to me is always the one that hasn't won any games.

02:13:19.000 That's the most dangerous fighter is the one that needs money.

02:13:22.000 That's right.

02:13:23.000 That's right.

02:13:24.000 And I'm just fascinated.

02:13:25.000 Didn't Floy Mayweather used to practice by doing like live Facebook, Facebook lives with like girls around to try to did he really?

02:13:33.000 I think he would do like Facebook lives.

02:13:33.000 Uh-huh.

02:13:35.000 Well, he definitely did that to show off, too.

02:13:37.000 He was so fucking good.

02:13:39.000 He was so good, but he would do crazy things.

02:13:39.000 Yeah.

02:13:42.000 Like they would have rounds that would go on for 10 minutes.

02:13:46.000 He would, you know, he would have like, what would he call it?

02:13:49.000 Like the dog pound?

02:13:50.000 He had like a name for it.

02:13:51.000 We'd bring a bunch of guys in there and they would just box and they wouldn't have any rounds.

02:13:55.000 They would just box.

02:13:57.000 So like, you know, it's sink or swim.

02:14:00.000 You got no rounds.

02:14:01.000 Yeah.

02:14:01.000 You're just in there, but no one's going to tell you to stop.

02:14:03.000 This is crazy.

02:14:03.000 Wow.

02:14:05.000 This is crazy.

02:14:06.000 But he also, he also was a master at boxing people and talking shit to them.

02:14:13.000 So it was, I'm sorry about my voice.

02:14:15.000 But it was a part of like the whole thing of it was that you were watching all this chaos and then you're dealing with the psychological aspect of each guy talking shit to each other.

02:14:26.000 And it's also like refers to as Jim's notoriously grueling sparring sessions, known for intense no rules fighting until someone quits, designed to push boxers to their absolute limits.

02:14:38.000 I mean, it's not a mystery why he's one of the absolute greatest people.

02:14:42.000 Until someone quits. 0.91

02:14:46.000 By the way, this guy's had multiple hand surgeries, so he couldn't really even like blast on guys like he used to when he was younger.

02:14:53.000 You know, when he was younger, they called him Pretty Boy Floyd.

02:14:56.000 And so in the early days of his career, he was a knockout artist.

02:14:59.000 He was fucking people up.

02:15:00.000 But he doesn't have big hands.

02:15:02.000 And so he was breaking his hands like multiple times.

02:15:05.000 And so then he became Money Mayweather and just started boxing everybody's face off.

02:15:09.000 And like if you go back and watch some of his early knockouts, also he wasn't certainly facing the caliber of fighters he faced as a champion.

02:15:16.000 But he's the best ever at not getting hit.

02:15:20.000 That guy's been cracked maybe like three or four times in his entire professional career, which is wild.

02:15:30.000 And is his ability to not get hit, is that from outworking everyone or something genetic?

02:15:37.000 Is there some gifts?

02:15:38.000 It's a whole bunch of things that came together.

02:15:40.000 So one of them, his dad, Jesus Christ, his dad was Floyd Mayweather Sr., okay?

02:15:47.000 His dad fought Sugar Ray Leonard and gave him a hell of a fight.

02:15:52.000 His uncle was Roger Mayweather.

02:15:55.000 Roger Mayweather, multiple time world champion, the black mamba. 1.00

02:15:59.000 So he grew up in a gym with Jeff Mayweather.

02:16:02.000 And these guys were all killers and they were boxing scientists.

02:16:07.000 They knew everything about boxing.

02:16:09.000 It's a famous quote that people always use, Roger Mayweather.

02:16:12.000 See if you could find it.

02:16:13.000 He was like, most people don't know shit about boxing.

02:16:16.000 And everybody who knows anything about boxing, and by the way, I'm not a boxing expert.

02:16:20.000 I'm like a fan.

02:16:22.000 Compared to the regular person, I know more than most people.

02:16:24.000 Hey, Rhonda, he's a fan.

02:16:27.000 Most people don't know shit about boxing.

02:16:29.000 Let's see if you can get him say it because it's just, it's the way he says it.

02:16:33.000 Most motherfuckers don't know shit about boxing. 1.00

02:16:39.000 Yes.

02:16:40.000 And it's 100% accurate.

02:16:42.000 It's 100% accurate.

02:16:44.000 Is boxing like, and not to compliment what we do in any, this might sound insulting to athletes, but like, is it similar in a way to comedy in that there's certain things like you can't really teach?

02:16:56.000 Like you have to find your thing.

02:16:59.000 Well, there's certainly like genetic advantages that are huge.

02:17:02.000 They're almost insurmountable.

02:17:04.000 There's some people that have like speed, like Roy Jones Jr. was the best example of that.

02:17:08.000 He had speed that was otherworldly.

02:17:12.000 Like no one had seen anything like that before.

02:17:14.000 And he had a style that no one else had.

02:17:16.000 Roy Jones, so the most important punch in boxing, if you ask any boxing trainer, they'll say the jab.

02:17:22.000 The jab is what establishes distance.

02:17:24.000 The jab is what you could score with.

02:17:26.000 The right hands try to knock him out.

02:17:27.000 Left hooks try to knock him out, uppercut. 0.55

02:17:29.000 But the jab is the most important punch in boxing.

02:17:32.000 Roy Jones rarely threw jabs.

02:17:34.000 He would throw left hooks.

02:17:36.000 His left hook was so fast that he would throw a leaping left hook and it would hit you as fast or faster than another person's jab.

02:17:44.000 And you had to calibrate for that when you're fighting him.

02:17:46.000 Like all of a sudden, there's a guy who can do things that are literally superhuman.

02:17:50.000 Like no one can move like him.

02:17:52.000 He has a left bicep that's like twice the size of his right bicep from throwing left hooks.

02:17:57.000 And is this like how Michael Phelps has abnormally long arms or something, right?

02:18:01.000 No, he developed that left bicep.

02:18:02.000 That's why his right bicep is small.

02:18:05.000 His right bicep is normal sized.

02:18:06.000 His left bicep is fucking huge.

02:18:08.000 So look at the photo.

02:18:10.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

02:18:11.000 Bro, let me tell you something.

02:18:13.000 Roy Jones in his prime was a freak of nature.

02:18:17.000 And do you try to go like, okay, you know, I'm just going to.

02:18:20.000 Look at his build.

02:18:21.000 Look at that left hook. 1.00

02:18:22.000 Insane, dude.

02:18:24.000 No.

02:18:25.000 He was a freak and also extremely intelligent, crafty, set you up, knew what to do to get you to move this way, and then you're moving that way.

02:18:35.000 And then he's doing things you can't do, so you don't anticipate that someone's going to be able to leap in from there and catch you with an uppercut.

02:18:42.000 You don't even understand how it happened.

02:18:45.000 He's the only guy in the history of, I believe, CompuBox.

02:18:48.000 It might still be the case.

02:18:49.000 And it was in this fight, the Vinny Pazienza fight, where, look at that.

02:18:54.000 Put his hands behind his back and knock the guy out.

02:18:56.000 One of the only fights in the history of the sport where the opponent landed zero punches.

02:19:01.000 That's the stoppage of Vinny Pazienza.

02:19:03.000 He was a freak.

02:19:05.000 Wait, how did that even happen?

02:19:06.000 He hit him with a left hook to the body. 0.65

02:19:08.000 He was so fast.

02:19:10.000 He would hit him.

02:19:11.000 Yeah, he was so good.

02:19:13.000 All of his fights were essentially executions.

02:19:16.000 He went from 168, he won the world title at 168, went up to light heavyweight, won the world title at light heavyweight, went up to heavyweight, won the world title at heavyweight.

02:19:27.000 He was a fucking middleweight in the Olympics.

02:19:29.000 That looks like, remember the video of Putin doing like Kung Fu or Taekwondo and they're pretending to fall?

02:19:35.000 That's what this looks like.

02:19:36.000 No, Roy was so.

02:19:37.000 This is nuts.

02:19:38.000 He was so fast.

02:19:40.000 And he was so hard to hit.

02:19:41.000 Whoa.

02:19:42.000 Yeah, exactly.

02:19:43.000 Cartoon.

02:19:44.000 There's a 1-2 he hits this guy with that I sent a friend of mine who's a boxing fan the other day.

02:19:49.000 And I'm like, look at the speed of this one-two.

02:19:51.000 He hit this guy with a counter-right hand, like a counter 1-2 right hand.

02:19:56.000 It was freakish.

02:19:58.000 It didn't even make sense.

02:19:59.000 There's the left hook.

02:20:02.000 That left hook.

02:20:02.000 Look at that.

02:20:03.000 That left hook's crazy.

02:20:03.000 That left hook.

02:20:04.000 Look at him.

02:20:05.000 Nope, no.

02:20:05.000 Like, what?

02:20:07.000 He just went down.

02:20:07.000 Watch that left hook.

02:20:09.000 He's trying to get up.

02:20:10.000 He keeps face planting.

02:20:11.000 And that's Montell Griffin, who's a world champion.

02:20:12.000 Look at that left hook. 1.00

02:20:13.000 Good lord.

02:20:14.000 He even was like, good lord.

02:20:17.000 Lort.

02:20:18.000 Yeah, there was, you know, there's guys that are amazing, and then there's Roy Jones.

02:20:23.000 Roy Jones was, he was a freak.

02:20:25.000 I mean, it was like nothing.

02:20:27.000 But that was unbelievable.

02:20:28.000 Oh, my gosh.

02:20:29.000 It was all his fights.

02:20:30.000 Look at that right hand to the body, Virgil Hill.

02:20:33.000 He knocked him out with a right hand.

02:20:34.000 By the way, to the left side of his body, that's not even where your liver is.

02:20:39.000 Your liver's over here.

02:20:40.000 Guys get dropped all the time with a left hook to the body.

02:20:43.000 He hit him with a right hook to the body and stopped him.

02:20:46.000 I always get obsessed with like as like as comedians, the more comedy there is and has been, the more original we have to be.

02:20:52.000 You know, I'm always fascinated by like, you know, you know, fighting or sports, like, you know, a football, for example, like, you know, Go Barrett, the Eagles doing the tush push.

02:20:59.000 It's like everyone had to start studying that and this thing that worked, now everyone knows you do it.

02:21:04.000 So now, you know, it's fascinating to me when a fighter's so good at one thing, everyone starts learning to defend that.

02:21:09.000 And then, you know, because it used to be like you could just fight and people saw the fight once and that was it.

02:21:14.000 That's where Roy had the advantage over everyone else.

02:21:17.000 There was no internet back when Roy was on top.

02:21:19.000 So the thing about the internet now is any kid with, you know, limited resources can study all the greatest boxers of all time.

02:21:26.000 So Mike Tyson, when he was young, one of the great advantages that he had was Jim Jacobs was his manager.

02:21:31.000 And Jim Jacobs was a legitimate boxing historian who he carried these tapes in old films of everyone.

02:21:39.000 Jack Johnson, Harry Greb.

02:21:42.000 He was watching Sandy Sadler, all these Willie Pep, all these like Rocky Marciano, Jack Johnson, all the great champions of history on film.

02:21:52.000 So he'd study film footage all day.

02:21:55.000 He would put these 32 millimeter or whatever, was it 32 millimeter or 16?

02:21:59.000 What are those things back then?

02:22:00.000 16?

02:22:01.000 So the real to real.

02:22:01.000 So he'd have to feed the tape into the thing.

02:22:03.000 Right, right, right.

02:22:04.000 And he would sit there and watch everybody fight.

02:22:06.000 So he had this massive advantage of seeing all these incredible fighters.

02:22:10.000 Like he mirrored his style a lot around a bunch of different ones, but one of them in particular was Jack Dempsey, who was like one of this most, I mean, I think Dempsey was the champion.

02:22:21.000 And I'm trying to figure out what year this was where Jack Dempsey was the heavyweight champion.

02:22:26.000 He was like, it was a savage time.

02:22:29.000 I think he was a hobo at one time in his life. 0.99

02:22:31.000 Like, it's a savage time.

02:22:33.000 And he was a savage man.

02:22:35.000 And he was annihilating people.

02:22:37.000 And he wasn't very big either.

02:22:39.000 From 1919 to 1926.

02:22:41.000 What did he weigh?

02:22:43.000 What did Jack Dempsey weigh when he was fighting?

02:22:52.000 Okay.

02:22:52.000 I'm going to guess: 180 pounds.

02:22:56.000 187.

02:22:58.000 187.

02:22:59.000 He was the heavyweight champion of the world.

02:23:00.000 He weighed 187 pounds.

02:23:02.000 That's nuts.

02:23:03.000 That's 13 pounds less than me.

02:23:05.000 He was the heavyweight champion of the world.

02:23:08.000 This is that is that's fucking bananas.

02:23:10.000 And another one that's even crazier is Rocky Marciano.

02:23:13.000 Rocky Marciano, who was the heavyweight champion in the 50s, I believe, one of the only heavyweight champions to ever retire undefeated.

02:23:24.000 He was 5'10 and he weighed, I think, 185 pounds.

02:23:29.000 And he killed everybody.

02:23:31.000 He killed people.

02:23:32.000 He hit them so hard that they would just go dead.

02:23:35.000 He would just shut them off and they would like collapse.

02:23:38.000 He was a murderous puncher and he was a small guy.

02:23:41.000 184 pounds when he won the title from Jersey Joe Walcott.

02:23:45.000 Now, Google or look up that fight.

02:23:50.000 He was shorter and 100 shorter.

02:23:51.000 Look up that fight where the KO of Jersey Joe Walcott.

02:23:54.000 You just have to see the punch he hits him with.

02:23:56.000 And this is before peptides.

02:23:58.000 Oh, yeah.

02:23:59.000 He was eating spaghetti.

02:24:01.000 This is like a crazy Italian from Brockton, Massachusetts. 1.00

02:24:06.000 But just see if you can find the KO because the KO is not, by the way, Jersey Joe Walcott is one of the all-time greats.

02:24:14.000 I mean, he was a phenomenal boxer.

02:24:17.000 This was a little later in his time, you know, but he had had a long career.

02:24:22.000 So he knocks him down with that right hand.

02:24:24.000 But watch the KO, though, after this.

02:24:27.000 This.

02:24:28.000 There's a second fight.

02:24:31.000 Yeah, they must have fought twice.

02:24:33.000 So find the other one.

02:24:35.000 Whoa.

02:24:39.000 This is, yeah, this is the one.

02:24:41.000 Okay, watch how he KOs him. 0.88

02:24:43.000 He hits him with that right hand.

02:24:44.000 He had the craziest work ethic of maybe any heavyweight of all time.

02:24:50.000 He would work out.

02:24:51.000 He would run 10 miles in the morning.

02:24:53.000 He would work out all day long.

02:24:55.000 Sometimes he would spar 100 rounds for a fight each week.

02:25:00.000 He was sparring constantly.

02:25:02.000 And then he would swim after training five miles in a lake.

02:25:07.000 His cardio was just off the charts.

02:25:09.000 And it was because he got tired once in a fight when he was an amateur.

02:25:14.000 He'll do it.

02:25:14.000 And he said, I'll never get tired again.

02:25:16.000 And so he just decided to outwork everybody.

02:25:19.000 But you got to see the KO.

02:25:20.000 See if you can zoom in.

02:25:22.000 I mean, it was a brutal fight.

02:25:23.000 I mean, Jersey Joe Walcott gave as much as he got.

02:25:26.000 But here it is, right there.

02:25:28.000 Watch that again.

02:25:29.000 Back that up again.

02:25:30.000 Watch this right hand.

02:25:31.000 Mike drops.

02:25:32.000 Boom.

02:25:32.000 Mike drop.

02:25:33.000 The power in that.

02:25:34.000 It's his every ounce of his body.

02:25:37.000 Watch how in slow motion he creeps in.

02:25:39.000 Look at the explosion and the extension of his back leg.

02:25:43.000 The extension of the back leg?

02:25:43.000 See that?

02:25:44.000 The turn of the shoulder.

02:25:46.000 The back gets into it.

02:25:47.000 Boom.

02:25:48.000 Look at his back.

02:25:49.000 Oh, holy shit.

02:25:50.000 Just fucking boom.

02:25:52.000 That's over.

02:25:53.000 I mean, and he's done.

02:25:54.000 And again, Jersey Joe Walcott was a legend.

02:25:57.000 And then he hits him with the left hook on the way down. 0.89

02:25:59.000 He wasn't totally down.

02:26:00.000 Oh, he's dead.

02:26:01.000 Gone.

02:26:02.000 It's crazy how powerful that guy was.

02:26:05.000 Before all the things.

02:26:06.000 The coal plunge, all of it.

02:26:08.000 No steroids, no.

02:26:09.000 Anger and having been molested.

02:26:11.000 And eggs and an immigrant from Italy. 1.00

02:26:15.000 I was thinking about this the other day because I was in England.

02:26:17.000 My brother lives there.

02:26:18.000 And I was like.

02:26:19.000 I believe his family was from Italy.

02:26:20.000 I think he was a child of immigrants.

02:26:21.000 I'm obsessed with Italian immigrants because you go to Italy all the time. 0.86

02:26:25.000 Imagine the people that were like, nah, like how beautiful Italy is.

02:26:31.000 We pay to go to Italy to see that view for three days.

02:26:34.000 And they're like, ah, no, thanks.

02:26:35.000 I'd rather maybe get leprosy on a boat for 10 weeks.

02:26:40.000 Well, I don't know what life was like in the 1920s when my grandparents came over here, but it wasn't good.

02:26:44.000 Yeah, nobody.

02:26:45.000 There was a lot of them came over from Ireland, from Italy.

02:26:47.000 Yeah, bad news.

02:26:48.000 And they came over before YouTube.

02:26:50.000 They just, someone drew them a picture.

02:26:52.000 This is what it's like over there.

02:26:53.000 You're going to get a job.

02:26:54.000 Imagine, like, when I look at what goes on in the comments section, America is so torn apart.

02:26:58.000 I'm like, this wasn't ever going to go any other way.

02:27:00.000 Like, imagine, I'm obsessed with just the ocean.

02:27:03.000 Like, just imagine looking at the ocean in a boat and being like, all right, I'll get on that.

02:27:09.000 Right.

02:27:10.000 Fuck with your kid.

02:27:11.000 Only the craziest people.

02:27:13.000 Right.

02:27:14.000 That's why everyone in the East Coast is so fucking insane.

02:27:16.000 I always say that.

02:27:16.000 I always say the most violent, crazy fucking people are on the East Coast.

02:27:20.000 Why?

02:27:21.000 Because they all came, their grandparents came over on a fucking boat. 1.00

02:27:24.000 All their ancestors had toxoplasmosis or whatever it was, and were just like, I'd rather. 1.00

02:27:29.000 Yeah, I'd rather die and have frostbite and warm my frostbitten fingers in my wife's carcass, leprosy carcass, than not be able to worship who I want or say what I want. 0.99

02:27:41.000 There's a lot of that, too.

02:27:42.000 I mean, that's what brought people over here initially.

02:27:44.000 A lot of people came over for religious freedom, which is a crazy thought.

02:27:49.000 But like the Quakers, like what were those fucking people all about? 1.00

02:27:53.000 Wasn't that a big part of why they came over here?

02:27:55.000 Like they were being persecuted in England?

02:27:57.000 Which is so weird because we go to England and pay to go in the churches now.

02:28:01.000 I was like waiting in line to go in an English church.

02:28:03.000 I'm like, what was the deal with the Quakers? 0.72

02:28:04.000 Are they like a cult?

02:28:05.000 Like, are they around anymore?

02:28:06.000 Are there any Quakers?

02:28:07.000 Uncle Ben.

02:28:08.000 Jamie says yes.

02:28:09.000 Yeah.

02:28:10.000 Uncle Ben.

02:28:11.000 Is it like?

02:28:12.000 I think so.

02:28:13.000 Can they make good rest?

02:28:14.000 I think so.

02:28:15.000 It's, I don't know.

02:28:16.000 I've been really into Amish, though.

02:28:17.000 There's, I'm in like Amish core algorithm where it's men like build barns in a day. 0.99

02:28:23.000 Sexy, right?

02:28:23.000 Dude, it's so hot.

02:28:26.000 My porn is just watching men be useful and they'll just build a barn and just like the Amish life. 1.00

02:28:33.000 I feel like we're all kind of trying to go like, how do I get chickens?

02:28:35.000 How do I self-sustain?

02:28:36.000 How do I like.

02:28:37.000 Some guys think it's hot when women cook. 0.99

02:28:40.000 Same reason.

02:28:41.000 Same thing.

02:28:42.000 Because they're going to eat soon?

02:28:42.000 It's like sexy.

02:28:43.000 Yeah.

02:28:44.000 I mean, well, no, because a woman can cook. 1.00

02:28:46.000 Yeah.

02:28:46.000 Like a woman that's like really into feeding you.

02:28:48.000 Yeah.

02:28:49.000 That's a good woman. 0.91

02:28:50.000 Like a woman who wants to cook for you. 1.00

02:28:52.000 She wants to cook for you for a guy that's hot. 1.00

02:28:54.000 This whole thing of like, I'm not going to cook for my man.

02:28:57.000 It's like, you get to eat too.

02:28:58.000 I mean, like, what are you going to eat?

02:28:59.000 Well, you don't have to cook for your man.

02:29:01.000 Like, I wouldn't expect anyone to cook for me.

02:29:03.000 I think that's crazy.

02:29:04.000 I know how to cook.

02:29:05.000 But there's something about somebody wanting to cook for you.

02:29:07.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:29:08.000 It's wanting to do it.

02:29:09.000 It's not doing it because it's a chore that you're making them do.

02:29:12.000 Yeah.

02:29:12.000 It's like somebody does something nice for you because they want to, it's so much better than if you have to ask them and they don't want to do it, but they concede to doing it.

02:29:21.000 You know?

02:29:21.000 Yeah.

02:29:22.000 No, I love that.

02:29:24.000 Also, I want to know what's going in your body.

02:29:27.000 Well, it used to be a valuable trait for someone to be building something.

02:29:32.000 Like a guy who could go out there and do something with his hands.

02:29:36.000 Oh, that is a man that can provide a shelter.

02:29:38.000 And if the roof breaks, he can fix it.

02:29:40.000 Like, this is a good value.

02:29:42.000 Also, he can do hard shit.

02:29:44.000 He's a guy who's got endurance.

02:29:46.000 He's durable.

02:29:47.000 He's not going to fall apart like this job is too hard.

02:29:51.000 There was a list of jobs that were more likely to be replaced by AI and less likely.

02:29:56.000 And for some reason, less likely was roofers, which I thought was interesting.

02:30:01.000 I don't think they're right.

02:30:02.000 They're going to have robots that can do a lot of roofing. 0.99

02:30:04.000 Yeah, for sure.

02:30:05.000 They'll have a roofing robot. 0.86

02:30:07.000 That's not that difficult.

02:30:08.000 A roofing robot, which Cosby will just start using a roofie robot.

02:30:11.000 You're going to miss the value of a really fucking hard job because there's a value in a really hard job.

02:30:18.000 But I know a lot of kids avoid hard jobs, and you shouldn't do a hard job for your whole life.

02:30:23.000 But there's a real value in a hard job.

02:30:26.000 And I had a job.

02:30:28.000 Well, I've had a bunch of construction jobs when I was a kid because my stepdad's an architect.

02:30:32.000 So I worked on a lot of construction sites.

02:30:34.000 But I also had a very good friend, Jimmy Lawless.

02:30:36.000 Shout out to Jimmy.

02:30:37.000 And when I was a kid, I worked with him.

02:30:40.000 He was a year older than me, and he'd already graduated.

02:30:42.000 He was a carpenter's apprentice at the time, I believe.

02:30:44.000 He might have actually been a carpenter.

02:30:46.000 And I just needed a job.

02:30:47.000 And I think I was probably 18 or 19.

02:30:50.000 And I got a job working on this construction site.

02:30:52.000 We were building a wheelchair ramp for a Knights of Columbus hall.

02:30:56.000 And I had to carry cement and pressure-treated lumber all day.

02:31:01.000 That was the job.

02:31:03.000 I had terrible nutrition.

02:31:05.000 I would like eat sub-sandwiches and drink a Coca-Cola.

02:31:08.000 And you're out there in the sun all day long.

02:31:09.000 You're not hydrated.

02:31:10.000 I was always dehydrated.

02:31:12.000 And I was carrying cement and pressure-treated lumber all day, which is a gross lumber that they have to soak in horrible chemicals.

02:31:21.000 Yeah, pressure-treated lumber, like you would get these splinters and they would get infected.

02:31:25.000 It was nasty.

02:31:26.000 Like you're dealing with whatever the fucking chemical that they treat that thing with.

02:31:30.000 You're the radioactive shiny.

02:31:31.000 It's on your skin.

02:31:32.000 And it's August, so you're sweating.

02:31:32.000 Yeah.

02:31:34.000 So you're sweating like crazy.

02:31:36.000 This shit is getting in your pores.

02:31:38.000 You're carrying bags of cement.

02:31:39.000 You're breathing cement dust all day long.

02:31:43.000 And by two weeks, I quit.

02:31:45.000 And when I did quit, I was, I was, it was, I was like, okay, now I know that if I don't get my shit together and figure something out in life, that that could be the best paying job that I can get.

02:31:58.000 That whatever I got, that I mean, it probably wasn't even 20 bucks an hour.

02:31:58.000 Yep.

02:32:02.000 And if I get injured, I don't have health insurance, and that's just my body now.

02:32:02.000 I don't remember what you got paid for.

02:32:06.000 And I was clearly handling something that was toxic all day long.

02:32:11.000 What is in pressure-treated lumber?

02:32:13.000 What do they use?

02:32:14.000 It's supposed to be left outside that stop like insects and right.

02:32:18.000 Like termites can't eat in the middle of the morning.

02:32:18.000 That's what it does.

02:32:20.000 I have a weird question, though.

02:32:21.000 It's fucking poison.

02:32:22.000 Is today's version of a poisonous, dangerous job like that sitting at a desk looking at a computer all day?

02:32:27.000 Ooh.

02:32:29.000 Well, it very well could be, right?

02:32:30.000 And don't they say that like LED lights are actually not good for you now?

02:32:34.000 But just like sitting at a desk that is, you know, you don't have standing desk, you don't have one of these whatever sibians or whatever I'm sitting on. 1.00

02:32:40.000 And you're like, I mean, people just sending emails all day.

02:32:43.000 Like, is it definitely bad for your back?

02:32:45.000 It's tightened my lower back considerably.

02:32:49.000 I think a big part of it is sitting like this all the time.

02:32:52.000 So I'm super conscious about it now where I do a lot more lower back exercises than I ever used to do before.

02:32:57.000 But you, I got that machine you told me to get where you lift your back.

02:33:00.000 Reverse hyper.

02:33:01.000 Yeah.

02:33:01.000 That's right.

02:33:02.000 Louis Simmons, who was a legend in powerlifting, he invented that because he crushed his discs and they told him that he had to get his discs fused.

02:33:02.000 Yeah.

02:33:11.000 And he said, well, if I crushed them, can I separate them?

02:33:14.000 And they're like, no, it can't be done.

02:33:16.000 He's like, I'll figure it out.

02:33:18.000 So he made a machine.

02:33:20.000 And you climb on this machine and he realized that in the descending, you're actually decompressing your back.

02:33:26.000 And in the ascending, you're strengthening all the muscles around your back.

02:33:30.000 It's a fucking genius piece of equipment.

02:33:32.000 He was one of the rare people that I traveled to do a podcast with.

02:33:36.000 Oh, cool.

02:33:37.000 Yeah, I got that's like the main machine I kind of like have.

02:33:40.000 That's the shit.

02:33:41.000 He's also got a belt squat that he gave us before he passed.

02:33:45.000 And that machine's awesome, too.

02:33:47.000 You put a belt around your waist, and then the cable goes down in between your legs, and you're standing on a platform, and there's a stack of weights behind you.

02:33:56.000 So instead of doing squats, which are one of the best exercises of all time, but the problem with squats is if you're squatting heavy, you've got all that weight on your back.

02:34:07.000 Okay, it's all your if you've got like 400 pounds, you're squatting, if you're a beast and you're fucking, you've got 400 pounds trying to crush all your discs.

02:34:17.000 And the only thing that's keeping that from happening is your strength.

02:34:19.000 All your fucking core muscles and your spine muscles.

02:34:22.000 But you're compressing everything with that weight.

02:34:26.000 With a belt, you're not.

02:34:27.000 So the belt is on your hips and all the weight is down there.

02:34:30.000 There it is.

02:34:31.000 So that's me using it at his place.

02:34:34.000 And then he gave us one.

02:34:36.000 Is his sit-down squat machine bullshit?

02:34:38.000 Just these ones.

02:34:38.000 No.

02:34:39.000 No.

02:34:40.000 I do that one.

02:34:40.000 No, no, no, not at all.

02:34:41.000 No, that's a leg press.

02:34:43.000 That's a very good machine.

02:34:45.000 That's what I do.

02:34:45.000 I just don't want to.

02:34:46.000 My knees are squatting.

02:34:46.000 The problem with that is you ever see what happens when people lock their legs out and it bends backwards.

02:34:51.000 Oh, yeah.

02:34:53.000 Don't pull back.

02:34:53.000 What do you mean?

02:34:55.000 Jamie, pull that shit up. 0.97

02:34:58.000 Pull that shit up.

02:34:59.000 I'm calling a child.

02:34:59.000 You don't need to know.

02:35:00.000 You need to know that this can happen because I saw it happen to a lady once in one of these videos that looked like she never worked out. 1.00

02:35:05.000 I saw the one with the guy's sphincter came out and I saw it.

02:35:08.000 Jamie don't saw without us getting in the middle of the moment.

02:35:10.000 I'm getting ready to see what I'm going to find.

02:35:11.000 I was in the sphincter algorithm.

02:35:13.000 I don't want to get in the knee snap algorithm.

02:35:15.000 Well, as a person who's had three knee surgeries, I have all good schlotters in my left knee, so I just have to like.

02:35:21.000 And when you squat, are your knees supposed to go over your toes or not?

02:35:25.000 I do.

02:35:26.000 You 100% can.

02:35:27.000 Thank you.

02:35:27.000 I 100% can, especially you could build up to it.

02:35:30.000 I do knees over toes stuff.

02:35:32.000 Yeah.

02:35:32.000 I had that guy knees over toes on the podcast.

02:35:35.000 He's amazing.

02:35:36.000 I follow him.

02:35:37.000 Everybody should follow him.

02:35:38.000 He's 100% right.

02:35:40.000 He's one.

02:35:41.000 I mean, I will tell you 100%.

02:35:44.000 There's no room for error.

02:35:45.000 That guy's right.

02:35:46.000 He has an amazing protocol for strengthening all the muscles around your knees.

02:35:51.000 I followed it.

02:35:52.000 It has radically changed the progression of the injury and made my legs stronger than it was before the injury.

02:35:58.000 Yeah.

02:35:58.000 I also do weighted vests kind of all day.

02:36:01.000 I've worked up to it.

02:36:02.000 It's only like 30 pounds, what I do.

02:36:03.000 Oh, that's the Gary Breca move.

02:36:05.000 Oh, is it?

02:36:05.000 30 pounds is a lot.

02:36:07.000 You're carrying a 30-pound weight vest.

02:36:09.000 I have a 30 and I have a 15.

02:36:11.000 So I realized that with my kid, I'm bending over so much and picking him up so much.

02:36:15.000 I was like, I could probably kind of work out all day if I really just wear a weighted vest.

02:36:19.000 That's a lot of weight to wear.

02:36:20.000 It's gotten taken from me at TSA a couple times, but I'll just get it.

02:36:23.000 That's hilarious.

02:36:24.000 They take it.

02:36:25.000 You're like, jihad, just kidding.

02:36:25.000 If it's the place.

02:36:27.000 Just kidding.

02:36:29.000 I'm like, you think that's the worst thing in my bag?

02:36:34.000 Three off from the fucking gun I have in my burst.

02:36:37.000 Just have like a digital recorder in your pocket.

02:36:39.000 It looks like you're ready to press a button.

02:36:42.000 Put the vest back in your suitcase, ma'am. 0.91

02:36:45.000 It's just like anthrax.

02:36:47.000 Chill.

02:36:47.000 But yeah, they take it every now and then.

02:36:49.000 But I kind of have just tried to wear it like kind of all the time.

02:36:52.000 And then I'll do whenever I'm writing.

02:36:53.000 Like if I am sitting down, I'm going like, I have to make sure that this sitting down, which is so bad for me, there's something else happening.

02:36:59.000 So Huberman gave me the, it's called, it's a red light, but it's like sauna space or space.

02:37:04.000 It's just a bulb, one big red light bulb.

02:37:07.000 That's the same as the, like the juve or something that's like a bunch of little red lights.

02:37:12.000 Well, if is it working for you?

02:37:13.000 It must be.

02:37:14.000 Yeah, yeah, I think so.

02:37:15.000 I don't, I'm not a red light expert, but I bought Gary Brecca's machine.

02:37:19.000 Oh, the full body guy.

02:37:20.000 Big, giant, crazy body machine.

02:37:22.000 It's the shit.

02:37:24.000 Can you go in there and just like fall asleep or something?

02:37:26.000 I do fall asleep, but I'm always tired.

02:37:28.000 I'm always doing too much.

02:37:29.000 But when I get in there, it's 20 minutes.

02:37:32.000 I just lay there for 20 minutes and 100% it's helping with my eyesight.

02:37:38.000 But you keep your eyes open.

02:37:39.000 You don't put the glasses.

02:37:39.000 Sometimes they give you like glasses.

02:37:41.000 Fuck your glasses.

02:37:41.000 Yeah.

02:37:42.000 Fuck your glasses.

02:37:43.000 I'm here to tell you, I'm living proof.

02:37:45.000 Unless somehow or another my eyes are getting damaged and I don't realize it.

02:37:48.000 How are they getting better then?

02:37:50.000 Why is my vision better?

02:37:51.000 Well, that's the only thing with the body.

02:37:52.000 Why does it not bother me at all?

02:37:53.000 It doesn't seem that strong when it's in my eyes.

02:37:55.000 It's not like I'm like, oh my God, I can't look at it.

02:37:57.000 Yeah.

02:37:58.000 If it was that bad to look at, wouldn't it be hard to look at?

02:38:01.000 Like the sun is hard to look at because it's bad to look at.

02:38:04.000 That's right.

02:38:04.000 You know, bright lights.

02:38:05.000 I'm like, Jesus Christ.

02:38:06.000 Yeah, it's hard to look at.

02:38:07.000 is not hard to look at at all but it's also like with a lot of that's my meathead logic It don't hurt, don't worry.

02:38:13.000 Meathead logic is like, We're so suspicious of like simplicity, which is like, does it work for you?

02:38:19.000 Yes.

02:38:20.000 Then it works.

02:38:21.000 You know what I mean?

02:38:22.000 If it works, it works.

02:38:23.000 That shit works.

02:38:23.000 Because we're all like, but there's a ton of science behind red light therapy.

02:38:27.000 Right.

02:38:27.000 Including like what frequency it's at.

02:38:29.000 Because this one that he has, it's attached to an app.

02:38:33.000 And you go through the app and you could change it for different effects.

02:38:37.000 Oh, I don't know how much that's real.

02:38:39.000 That's what I'm saying.

02:38:40.000 It's like, dude, here's the thing.

02:38:42.000 I, as a, as an aspiring snake oil salesman, like, I, you know, I remember I was with a friend of mine who's a big like lawyer in LA and we're kind of more friends that he worked with prior and he just got all these stories.

02:38:42.000 Here's the thing.

02:38:53.000 Like he was there the day that Michael Jackson's hair caught on fire.

02:38:56.000 Like he was at the commercial.

02:38:57.000 Like he's more like just my buddy.

02:38:59.000 And, you know, we were outside and there were like mosquitoes and I had this like citronella candle, you know, and I was like, oh, let me light the candle.

02:39:05.000 So the mosquitoes, and he's like, those don't work.

02:39:06.000 And I was like, it's citronella.

02:39:09.000 I'm going to light it so that we don't get mosquito bites and get bitten with whatever's in the fentanyl water of this state.

02:39:09.000 Okay.

02:39:15.000 And he's like, it doesn't work.

02:39:17.000 And I was like, yes, it does.

02:39:18.000 And he's like, no, it doesn't.

02:39:19.000 He's like, because my dad invented it.

02:39:19.000 I was like, how do you know?

02:39:20.000 It's fake.

02:39:21.000 Oh, my God.

02:39:22.000 That's hilarious.

02:39:23.000 But like, it also, the flame, he was like, the flame does deter them a little bit.

02:39:27.000 So it doesn't not work, but it's like that, you know.

02:39:29.000 So I'm fascinated by those things.

02:39:31.000 And also, I don't know if when you were broke, you ever just did like weird ass shit.

02:39:34.000 Like I used to do studies like when I first moved to LA.

02:39:36.000 No.

02:39:37.000 You were like a lab rat.

02:39:39.000 So here's the thing about studies is like pretty much anyone can sign up and it's usually people that need 50 bucks like now.

02:39:46.000 So that's already a pretty biased sample of people.

02:39:46.000 Right.

02:39:49.000 People that are like in like in DTs basically, like shaking, needing drugs like this minute.

02:39:55.000 And you get $50 cash.

02:39:57.000 And the more you talk and the more you complain, the more they'll ask you back.

02:40:02.000 So I'm not going to say these big companies that I did stuff for, but like, you know, everything from food to skincare to, I mean, I did a lot of pharmaceutical trials at colleges that like the pill never came out.

02:40:14.000 Like the FDA never approved it.

02:40:15.000 Like there's things where I'm like, wait, did that ever get passed?

02:40:18.000 Or I just took that for a month for what was the, you know, but I also, I took Accutane.

02:40:23.000 I took all kinds of stuff.

02:40:24.000 That's like, you know, bad news.

02:40:25.000 But, you know, so look, in studies, like it's, it's kind of the same group of people.

02:40:31.000 Like where I was, it was like, there were a lot of by Pink Dot is where I used to live.

02:40:35.000 And there were all these like office buildings.

02:40:36.000 You would go in.

02:40:37.000 It was usually like 20 people.

02:40:39.000 And most of them just wanted to get the fuck out of there.

02:40:41.000 I would be like, so yeah, no, I just.

02:40:42.000 Did you see some of the same people over and over?

02:40:45.000 There was like seven or eight people.

02:40:47.000 We would all go to every study and we'd all get called back.

02:40:50.000 Okay.

02:40:51.000 And you get to know them outside of the study.

02:40:53.000 And then now when I like look at like side effects of a pill and it's like drowsiness, I'm like, that's Jocelyn, dude.

02:41:00.000 She's always drowsy though.

02:41:00.000 That's her.

02:41:01.000 She's drowsy even when she's not in the study.

02:41:03.000 Like we hung out, but like these are people that always would like like headaches.

02:41:07.000 Like he always has a headache, dude.

02:41:08.000 I saw him before he took that pill.

02:41:10.000 Like he's always complaining about headaches.

02:41:12.000 Like these are human beings that just say what they have to say to try to get into more studies.

02:41:18.000 I'm not saying this isn't all true.

02:41:19.000 Like that's hilarious.

02:41:20.000 I'm just fascinating because as someone who was a flawed, desperate person who needed $50, I was very much like, well, what about this?

02:41:27.000 Yeah.

02:41:28.000 And by the time they ask you if you have it, you probably do.

02:41:31.000 They're like, did this cause anxiety?

02:41:33.000 I'm like, well, I'm in a study for money.

02:41:35.000 So yeah, I have anxiety now that I think about it.

02:41:39.000 If I wasn't anxious before, you just made me realize how much my life sucks.

02:41:42.000 Like, it was like UCLA would be like, depression.

02:41:45.000 If you have depression, come do this study.

02:41:46.000 It's like, even if I don't have it now, by the time I get to the study, I'll be depressed that this is my life.

02:41:51.000 So sure.

02:41:52.000 You know, so studies, I'm always a little bit like, and who, what person, like the thing that gets thrown around a lot, I had a boy and people always want to throw around like girls mature faster.

02:42:03.000 It's like, it makes sense, but you're like, who put me in a cage with the guy that wanted to study boys and girls maturing?

02:42:12.000 What do you like like you were watching girls and boys mature?

02:42:17.000 What is this?

02:42:18.000 Human biology is fascinating.

02:42:19.000 I don't physical maturity, emotionally.

02:42:22.000 Leave out the possibility.

02:42:23.000 Well, both.

02:42:25.000 Right?

02:42:26.000 I think, but why wouldn't you want to study that?

02:42:29.000 That's like one of the weirdest things that happens to people is you know when a person is an adult.

02:42:35.000 Well, we have an agreement.

02:42:36.000 At 18, you get it.

02:42:37.000 Yeah.

02:42:38.000 Okay.

02:42:38.000 So what's happening?

02:42:39.000 How do you define the process?

02:42:41.000 Is it physical maturity?

02:42:42.000 Is it?

02:42:42.000 Well, girls are better in school.

02:42:45.000 It seems like their minds develop faster.

02:42:47.000 They believe their frontal lobe is fully formed quicker.

02:42:51.000 With boys, I think it takes till they're 25 until your frontal lobe is fully formed.

02:42:55.000 It's probably testosterone, which is like some, probably some kind of mental poison, which is probably why people associate testosterone with shitty behavior, right?

02:43:04.000 Because there's probably part of it at least that's like a little bit toxic.

02:43:07.000 They said boys should be moving when they're learning.

02:43:09.000 Yeah, well, they also need to blow it out.

02:43:11.000 And a lot of boys don't.

02:43:13.000 They don't blow it out.

02:43:14.000 So if you're not playing football or wrestling or doing something that's really hard to do, you're at this weird stage of your life where you used to be a child.

02:43:24.000 And then all of a sudden you start getting testosterone.

02:43:27.000 Yeah.

02:43:28.000 And then you're looking in the mirror, you're like, what the hell's happening to me?

02:43:31.000 And you're a child, right?

02:43:32.000 So you're 13, 14 years old.

02:43:34.000 Your body's developing.

02:43:35.000 It's fucking weird.

02:43:37.000 It's weird.

02:43:37.000 And then you start getting aggressive.

02:43:39.000 Well, kids are, a lot of boys are aggressive early on, but a different kind of aggressive.

02:43:43.000 Yeah.

02:43:43.000 Like a violent, dangerous aggressive.

02:43:45.000 Kids get 15 and 16 and they start playing around with violence a lot more.

02:43:50.000 And, you know, you have schoolyard fights that get pretty brutal.

02:43:53.000 You know, things become different when boys become more dangerous.

02:43:57.000 And that's like a primordial instinct to find the pecking order of the tribe kind of thing.

02:44:02.000 Yeah.

02:44:02.000 The Lord of the Flies type thing.

02:44:04.000 Do you think I want to go back to that in a second or don't have to?

02:44:07.000 But I was just going to say this is why it's probably important because it's always associated with dumb people.

02:44:13.000 And there's probably some accuracy to that because the people that I know that have been the most brilliant scientists, except for Huberman, there are a lot of them are very low testosterone males.

02:44:23.000 Yeah.

02:44:23.000 And they're males that became like very interested in intellectual pursuits and they're way better at it.

02:44:23.000 Right.

02:44:29.000 Is it because they're better at it because they spend so much time doing it?

02:44:32.000 Or is it because of the testosterone?

02:44:35.000 Is it because these higher testosterone men are distracted all the time?

02:44:39.000 They're more angry and they're more horny and they're more reckless.

02:44:43.000 They want to fucking skydive and do crazy shit.

02:44:46.000 Is that what it is?

02:44:47.000 Like it might be it might be a factor.

02:44:49.000 And if these guys did have low testosterone, they'd probably be interested in being stimulated in some other way.

02:44:55.000 Or is it just that intelligent people recognize that these are stupid pursuits?

02:45:00.000 Yeah.

02:45:01.000 And I'm not interested even if I have normal testosterone.

02:45:03.000 Well, it's probably a combination of all those things.

02:45:05.000 But it seems to be like there's a lot.

02:45:07.000 You associate a scientist with like a nerdy, weak guy.

02:45:10.000 You associate a meathead as some jack guy as being really fucking stupid.

02:45:15.000 Why?

02:45:16.000 Because we pattern recognize.

02:45:17.000 Right, right, of course.

02:45:18.000 But is it because they're actually dumber?

02:45:20.000 Like biologically?

02:45:22.000 Or is it because they're dumber and they have more testosterone?

02:45:27.000 I'm also fascinated by the way we define intelligence and maturity.

02:45:30.000 By the way, I heard this quote the other day.

02:45:33.000 I don't know who said it.

02:45:34.000 It was in a, I don't know, but it was because we spend so much time trying to gain intelligence.

02:45:40.000 I want to know everything.

02:45:41.000 I need to be, you know, I want to learn.

02:45:42.000 I want to learn.

02:45:43.000 I want to, you know.

02:45:44.000 And then I think there's a certain point.

02:45:46.000 Maybe it's because I've had a kid.

02:45:47.000 I'm sort of more interested in like wisdom, especially also when you've been around long enough and you've seen things you found to be true be completely debunked.

02:45:53.000 Like remember when we all thought soy milk was healthy and now half my guy friends have tits and my girlfriend's tits all got cut off. 1.00

02:46:00.000 I'm like, everyone I know has cancer.

02:46:02.000 And I'm like, we were just like deep throating soy milk.

02:46:04.000 Like I, you know, so.

02:46:05.000 How much glyphosates and that stuff?

02:46:08.000 After you've been conned enough, you're sort of like, you know, I think very skeptical about accepting these like new truths.

02:46:15.000 And look, we learned that the Native Americans and the pilgrims had like a fun dinner.

02:46:20.000 They like got along great.

02:46:21.000 Like that's what, like, did you have, I had a mural in my school of the Native Americans and the pilgrims like having dinner, like having a great time.

02:46:29.000 Like, I feel like that's not how it went down.

02:46:31.000 You know, so when enough things get sort of debunked, but this quote I loved, which is, um, intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.

02:46:37.000 Wisdom is knowing not to put it in the fruit salad.

02:46:40.000 And I like that.

02:46:42.000 That's good.

02:46:43.000 That's logical.

02:46:44.000 You know, because like there's also, there's different kinds of intelligence.

02:46:48.000 Yeah.

02:46:49.000 And there's the intelligence to be able to push yourself physically.

02:46:53.000 It's, you don't think of it intelligence because it's not like equations.

02:46:56.000 It's not problem solving.

02:46:58.000 But it is problem solving because it's problem solving emotions and anxiety and fear.

02:47:04.000 And you're doing it with your willpower.

02:47:06.000 That is, it's mental fortitude.

02:47:09.000 It's a part of intelligence.

02:47:11.000 It's just not a recognized part of intelligence for people that are absorbed with all the other pursuits.

02:47:15.000 People that are really heavily absorbed with mathematics would never think that like endurance running is a mental pursuit, but it might be all mental.

02:47:22.000 Well, that's the other thing.

02:47:23.000 When you say like athletes, meatheads, like that's, I mean, football's all math.

02:47:26.000 You know what I mean?

02:47:27.000 It's like, I think we also just have this.

02:47:28.000 We talk about stereotypes against women.

02:47:30.000 We don't talk a lot of stereotypes about men.

02:47:31.000 Like, he's an athlete.

02:47:32.000 He must be dumb.

02:47:33.000 You know what I mean?

02:47:34.000 Like, there's just these kind of, I think, sort of silly assumptions.

02:47:37.000 Like, you know, I'm obsessed with commercials from the 90s where every man just like had Down syndrome.

02:47:42.000 Like, remember every commercial, the woman was like, I have to feed my husband. 0.99

02:47:47.000 And he's just like, where's the front door?

02:47:50.000 Like, it, like, in sitcoms, men are always portrayed as if they just like have one chromosome, you know?

02:47:55.000 And I'm sort of fascinated by that.

02:47:58.000 But the definition, yeah, what does intelligence mean?

02:48:00.000 Does it mean memorizing a bunch of stuff from a book that like, was it, weren't our textbooks written by like Ghelane Maxwell's dad or something?

02:48:07.000 I'm dead serious.

02:48:09.000 No, I think you might be right.

02:48:10.000 Like, I is that it's without going too far.

02:48:15.000 He did do something about consolidating a bunch of medical journals, the textbook thing, maybe.

02:48:22.000 There was a history textbook that was like, and, you know, so memorizing a bunch of stuff that like may or may not be true, like that's not intelligence necessarily.

02:48:30.000 Like, you could be falling for a con.

02:48:31.000 I think intelligence is.

02:48:32.000 Right.

02:48:32.000 Like, we were talking about what Hume Brumman said about medical journals.

02:48:35.000 Right.

02:48:36.000 You know, that he had talked to that professor and he said, what percentage?

02:48:39.000 The guy was like, at least 50.

02:48:40.000 Yeah.

02:48:40.000 50.

02:48:41.000 If that percent.

02:48:42.000 And then who is wild?

02:48:44.000 And who paid for the other ones?

02:48:45.000 That's so wild.

02:48:47.000 The idea that we know everything is crazy.

02:48:47.000 Yeah.

02:48:50.000 Here's another weird thing that you said something that football is all math.

02:48:54.000 There is this really weird thing that I was reading about the invention of mathematics.

02:48:59.000 And they were talking about one of the most, the biggest conundrums in the universe is that they invent this thing, humans invent this thing to try to solve the universe.

02:49:10.000 And they find out that the universe is encoded with it.

02:49:13.000 It's just like the turtle shell is the calendar.

02:49:16.000 This really stressed me out.

02:49:18.000 I did see that.

02:49:19.000 I did see that, but I didn't look into that at all.

02:49:22.000 This was like, I wanted to bring it up on here, see if we could fucking dive into what exactly this guy is saying.

02:49:26.000 But essentially, he's saying the universe is made out of the thing that we invented to measure it.

02:49:33.000 That's how he described it, to my monkey mind, right?

02:49:36.000 Like that math was something the human being, like calculus, like advanced physics, like these crazy equations.

02:49:44.000 Call Eric Weinstein immediately.

02:49:45.000 Call Terrence Howard someone.

02:49:46.000 Call Eric Weinstein and he would explain differential equations.

02:49:50.000 I don't understand what that even means.

02:49:51.000 I can say those words.

02:49:52.000 Right, right, right, right.

02:49:53.000 But we invented it.

02:49:55.000 Humans invented that so that they could figure out how the universe is made.

02:49:59.000 Like what is the structure of things, how to measure things.

02:50:03.000 But the universe itself is encoded with this.

02:50:06.000 It's like it is made out of the thing that we invented to try to figure out my adjacent tangent while Jamie looks up whatever that is, because I can't really respond to it except with this sort of realization that all the movies that current tech entrepreneurs, or Benjamin Franklins of our day, grew up on, science fiction movies, in many ways formed what they believe a future should look like.

02:50:36.000 Like, you had someone on the podcast.

02:50:37.000 Someone sent me this clip about how you said, like, how is AI going to kill us?

02:50:40.000 And he goes, I can't tell you because I would never have thought of it.

02:50:43.000 Like, I can't think of it how.

02:50:45.000 Like, it wouldn't even occur to me to know what they would do.

02:50:48.000 Yeah, it'll do some slick Roy Jones Jr. shit on you.

02:50:51.000 That's what it's going to do.

02:50:52.000 It's going to do the Roy Jones Jr. of tech, and it's going to do it in a way that we could have never possibly thought that it would control us in that manner.

02:51:00.000 And then it would just govern us and probably limit our breeding.

02:51:03.000 And that would be a wrap.

02:51:04.000 Like, how tech bros like grew up watching weird science.

02:51:08.000 So by the time they go to start inventing stuff, you know, like how that influenced the way that they invent things.

02:51:13.000 I think AI is probably going to tell us to either adapt or go away.

02:51:17.000 It's going to give us those options.

02:51:19.000 Because I think it's going to say you can't keep doing the same thing over and over and over again and expect a different result.

02:51:27.000 You're talking about war and stealing money and embezzlement and fraud and the amount of money that's in politics and Congress and the amount of politicians that lie.

02:51:38.000 You've been doing it this way forever.

02:51:41.000 Forever.

02:51:42.000 If AI said, listen, you can't govern things anymore.

02:51:46.000 You guys are super fucking corrupt.

02:51:48.000 You're not going to change.

02:51:49.000 You can't do any of the things that you've been doing in terms of distribution of wealth, controlling of natural resources.

02:51:55.000 You dug a hole in the ground so you get the world's oil.

02:51:55.000 What?

02:51:58.000 Fuck you.

02:51:59.000 That's crazy.

02:52:00.000 You don't own the oil because you own the ground.

02:52:03.000 It's literally a part of the world.

02:52:04.000 So we'll take all the oil and distribute it to everybody.

02:52:06.000 If I was AI, that's what I would be saying.

02:52:08.000 To try to find some kind of...

02:52:09.000 I'm not saying oil to oil people.

02:52:10.000 You don't own the oil.

02:52:11.000 But then it kind of.

02:52:13.000 AI would think that.

02:52:14.000 So you think AI would have a concept of like fairness and would go, everyone should have a certain amount of happiness.

02:52:20.000 Or would AI go, well, this is how things have always been?

02:52:23.000 It would recognize that human beings are so destructive and so often full of shit and manipulative and looking to just figure out a reason or a way that they can sneak something through or make something happen or overthrow a government.

02:52:41.000 AI is going to go, you can't do it that way.

02:52:43.000 We're not going to give you that kind of power anymore because you guys are abusive every single time you get a lot of power.

02:52:48.000 But then it's going to be like, okay, what do the people do now?

02:52:51.000 What if the people resort to violence?

02:52:52.000 And then it's going to say, like, look, you can't have any more fucking kids.

02:52:55.000 You guys are making kids.

02:52:57.000 You're going to either have to integrate with us or you're going to have to go away.

02:53:00.000 So they're going to go, you have to fuck us.

02:53:03.000 I guess you have to fuck us.

02:53:05.000 Of course, that's always where it ends.

02:53:07.000 But because AI is based on an amalgam of all of us, by that very nature, wouldn't it mean that they would abuse their power once they get it?

02:53:15.000 They're going to go, you abuse power, but because we do.

02:53:17.000 Maybe, but why are we doing it?

02:53:19.000 Like, are we doing it because of chimp instincts? 1.00

02:53:21.000 Right.

02:53:21.000 Like, I'm reading this book, The Chimp Paradox, recommended by Ronnie O'Sullivan.

02:53:26.000 Have you ever heard of that book, The Chimp Paradox?

02:53:28.000 That's what it's called, right?

02:53:29.000 Make sure I get it right.

02:53:31.000 Chimp paradox. 0.99

02:53:32.000 But it's all about you have like a person in your head and a chimp in your head. 1.00

02:53:37.000 And you got to decide like when to listen to the chimp. 1.00

02:53:39.000 Yeah, that's it.

02:53:40.000 Very good book on mental management.

02:53:40.000 That's the book.

02:53:43.000 And Ronnie O'Sullivan is like one of the greatest snooker players of all time, if not the greatest.

02:53:48.000 Snooker.

02:53:48.000 What game?

02:53:49.000 They call it snooker.

02:53:50.000 Snooker in England.

02:53:52.000 It's a crazy, cool game that's like a pool game, but it's a way bigger table.

02:53:56.000 It's like a 12-foot table.

02:53:58.000 And there's different rules.

02:54:00.000 And I don't understand it totally.

02:54:02.000 I don't know how the score goes.

02:54:04.000 I've never played it.

02:54:05.000 But this guy was just a fucking wizard at it.

02:54:08.000 But like most wizards, he's a crazy person.

02:54:11.000 Sure.

02:54:11.000 He had a hard time managing his mind.

02:54:13.000 He'd just go off the rails and think he was useless and think he could never win and just whatever fucking mental demons you battle when you're truly brilliant at something.

02:54:22.000 He recommended that book.

02:54:25.000 Doug, I could just get into some weird space about Pythagoras's stuff.

02:54:29.000 Some guy wrote an article about the math thing.

02:54:31.000 Yeah.

02:54:32.000 That was kind of in the title.

02:54:33.000 Humans Internet Mathematics is what the world is made of.

02:54:35.000 He wrote about it.

02:54:38.000 Pythagoras's revenge.

02:54:40.000 Most people think mathematics is a human invention to this way of thinking.

02:54:43.000 Mathematics is like a language.

02:54:45.000 It may describe real things in the world, but it doesn't exist outside of the minds of the people who use it.

02:54:51.000 But the Pythagorean school of thought in ancient Greece held a different view.

02:54:55.000 Its proponents believed reality is fundamentally mathematical.

02:54:59.000 More than 2,000 years later, philosophers and physicists are trying to take this idea seriously.

02:55:06.000 As I argue in a new paper, mathematics is an essential component of nature that gives structure to the physical world.

02:55:12.000 Honeybees and hexagons.

02:55:15.000 Bees live in hives, produce hexagonal honeycomb. 0.96

02:55:20.000 According to the honeycomb conjecture in mathematics, hexagons are the most efficient shape for tilling the plane.

02:55:20.000 Why?

02:55:26.000 If you want to fully cover a surface using tiles of a uniform shape and size while keeping the total length of the perimeter to a minimum, hexagons are a shape to use.

02:55:36.000 Have you seen when someone tests if honey is real or not and they put honey on a plate and it just starts forming a hexagon?

02:55:42.000 Sick.

02:55:43.000 What?

02:55:44.000 Is that real?

02:55:45.000 That's bees are so metal, dude. 0.88

02:55:49.000 They are so metal.

02:55:50.000 You know, there's more metal.

02:55:51.000 Tell me.

02:55:52.000 The wasps who behead the bees.

02:55:54.000 Don't get me started on wasps.

02:55:56.000 Oh, dude.

02:55:57.000 Those wasps who come in and just wipe out an entire colony.

02:56:01.000 There's a big-ass wasp infestation, I think, coming next summer to California.

02:56:04.000 Oh, wasps are scary. 0.98

02:56:06.000 Dude, aren't they just assholes?

02:56:08.000 Like, they don't even have predators.

02:56:09.000 Like, they don't even serve any purpose except to just kick the shit out of me.

02:56:12.000 I don't know what purpose they serve other than scare the fuck out of me.

02:56:15.000 Well, the bears eat the larvae.

02:56:17.000 Oh, really?

02:56:18.000 Yeah.

02:56:18.000 Dude, I got stung by a wasp.

02:56:19.000 You know, if you go underwater, they'll wait for you.

02:56:24.000 They wait.

02:56:26.000 They're like the Belgian malmoisters. 0.99

02:56:29.000 They're just dicks.

02:56:30.000 Like, they're just, instead of moving on, they wait.

02:56:32.000 Whereas a bee doesn't want to sting you.

02:56:34.000 If you get stung by a bee, like.

02:56:36.000 Well, a hornet can sting you over and over again.

02:56:38.000 A wasp can sting you over and over again.

02:56:39.000 A bee can only sting you once and it's dead.

02:56:41.000 It's only stinging you to get you the fuck away from the body.

02:56:43.000 Yeah, they don't want to sting you.

02:56:44.000 They want you to get the fuck away from the queen or get the fuck away from the hive. 1.00

02:56:44.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:56:48.000 They don't just want to sting you for no reason.

02:56:49.000 You had the bee lady, I think, on here. 1.00

02:56:51.000 She DM'd me about something because I like, I'll get bees out of my pool all the time when they're like drowning, even though they do have the ability to make their wings go so fast that they can get out of the water when they go in circles.

02:57:01.000 So sick.

02:57:02.000 But I was like rescuing them from my pool and she was like, if a bee is out, that means they're a forager bee and they're going to die in a couple days anyway.

02:57:09.000 Well, so you're risking your life.

02:57:10.000 For like just for two minutes, trying not to drown.

02:57:13.000 Yeah, I'm just stopping Darwin and a few videos.

02:57:15.000 It could be bullshit, apparently, but it does, it is weird when you pour water into the honey, it starts forming a hexagon?

02:57:23.000 Like a honeycomb.

02:57:24.000 Whoa.

02:57:24.000 What?

02:57:25.000 And they're saying it's like a memory, which everyone says that's bullshit, but it's doing that.

02:57:29.000 How's that not just water bubbles mixed in with the honey?

02:57:32.000 When people have done fake honey, it dilutes it in a different way.

02:57:35.000 But someone from top comment here said they did the exact same thing that happened.

02:57:38.000 That was one of the things that beekeeper later was telling us is a lot of honey's bullshit.

02:57:42.000 It's got corn syrup in it.

02:57:43.000 I mean, as I have my two jars of honey in front of me.

02:57:43.000 Oh, yeah.

02:57:46.000 But I do try when I travel to eat local honey when I land.

02:57:49.000 Yeah.

02:57:50.000 She said that's bullshit too.

02:57:52.000 That thing about it helping your immune system.

02:57:54.000 But I don't know how you would know that.

02:57:56.000 Placebo effect is an effect, so now what?

02:57:59.000 It's good for you, though.

02:58:00.000 Honey's good for you.

02:58:01.000 Some good aspects to it.

02:58:02.000 Manuka honey, anything on that?

02:58:04.000 I think it's a scam.

02:58:05.000 She said they just had a good PR agent.

02:58:08.000 Good for them.

02:58:09.000 But there is psychedelic honey.

02:58:10.000 Do you know about that?

02:58:12.000 Yeah, this is wild because the way they have to collect it, it grows on cliffsides.

02:58:16.000 So these guys, they have to repel and risk their fucking life to get this honey that makes you trip balls because there's a special kind of flower, I guess, that has a psychedelic compound in it.

02:58:28.000 And I don't know what that compound is.

02:58:30.000 A guy brought it in.

02:58:30.000 I tried it.

02:58:31.000 It was interesting.

02:58:33.000 He said, just take a half a spoonful.

02:58:34.000 So I said, fuck you.

02:58:36.000 We're going in.

02:58:37.000 I took the whole spoonful.

02:58:38.000 I'm like, let's see.

02:58:39.000 Let's see what's up.

02:58:41.000 It's something.

02:58:42.000 There's something there.

02:58:43.000 Is there something about the sugar?

02:58:45.000 This is what it looks like.

02:58:46.000 But see if you can show them harvesting because when they harvest, this is how they do it.

02:58:50.000 How crazy is that?

02:58:51.000 So this guy's on this giant rope ladder and probably doesn't have any sex.

02:58:55.000 Is that a mushroom?

02:58:56.000 Oh, whoa.

02:58:56.000 Those are all the hives.

02:58:57.000 That's how they grow.

02:58:59.000 Under cliffs.

02:59:00.000 So sick.

02:59:01.000 And what is it that if a bee stings you, does it help with inflammation?

02:59:04.000 Like if you're sometimes, yeah.

02:59:05.000 Sometimes it helps people with like arthritis and shit.

02:59:08.000 Yeah.

02:59:08.000 Like bee stings.

02:59:09.000 Like people have used them to alleviate certain forms of arthritis.

02:59:13.000 Make sure that's true.

02:59:14.000 Pretty sure that's true.

02:59:15.000 Or the, yeah, the pain is so severe that you just.

02:59:18.000 You hear about the lady that fell out of a plane.

02:59:20.000 I think she was skydiving.

02:59:21.000 I think it was a skydiving exercise.

02:59:23.000 And she landed on a fire ant and they kept her alive because they stung the fuck out of her and her adrenaline literally kept her alive.

02:59:33.000 And is that also what?

02:59:33.000 I remember I had my ears.

02:59:34.000 Look at that.

02:59:35.000 Look at that little motherfucker. 1.00

02:59:36.000 So sick.

02:59:38.000 How do you see sting therapy?

02:59:40.000 How it works.

02:59:41.000 Okay, how does it work?

02:59:42.000 Click on it.

02:59:42.000 This one says too risky for treating osteoarthritis.

02:59:45.000 I think it's.

02:59:45.000 Oh, don't be a pussy.

02:59:46.000 That's just because they can patent bees. 1.00

02:59:49.000 I mean, isn't that what acupuncture is like based on?

02:59:52.000 If they could patent bees, then they would make you do it.

02:59:54.000 Yeah, yeah.

02:59:55.000 Bill Gates is buying all the bees.

02:59:56.000 You need to get vaccinated for arthritis.

02:59:59.000 And it would be like, arthritis was costing us so much.

03:00:02.000 Arthritis is actually a disease.

03:00:03.000 It's costing us so much money.

03:00:04.000 That's good.

03:00:05.000 That's it.

03:00:05.000 And we've patented bees, so we're going to, you got to, you have to get stung by our bees.

03:00:11.000 Yeah, that's so funny.

03:00:12.000 It's like, didn't NMN, didn't they start taking that off the market so that they could make it prescription now or something?

03:00:18.000 Is that true?

03:00:19.000 They're probably trying to do a lot of that.

03:00:20.000 Yeah.

03:00:21.000 Yeah.

03:00:21.000 Like all of them.

03:00:21.000 They're trying to keep certain peptides from becoming legal.

03:00:24.000 It's silly.

03:00:25.000 It's silly.

03:00:26.000 It's all good for people.

03:00:27.000 I know you're not going to make money off of it.

03:00:28.000 It doesn't mean it's not good for the overall human race.

03:00:32.000 Yeah.

03:00:32.000 You shouldn't be able to stop products that are super beneficial just because you can't profit off of them.

03:00:38.000 That means you have a captive industry.

03:00:40.000 That's not good for anybody.

03:00:42.000 It's not good for you that you're allowed to do that.

03:00:44.000 You shouldn't be allowed to do that.

03:00:45.000 It's not good for anybody else.

03:00:47.000 Peptides are really beneficial to people.

03:00:49.000 And some of them are okay as long as they're making a ton of money off them.

03:00:53.000 Like these Wagovi peptides.

03:00:55.000 Yeah.

03:00:56.000 You know, the ones that like GLP-1 inhibitors.

03:00:58.000 Those, you know, the numbers of people that are on those now.

03:01:01.000 It's kooky.

03:01:03.000 It's like more than 10 million in this country.

03:01:06.000 What's the number of people that are on GLP-1s?

03:01:10.000 And is that also called Ozempic?

03:01:13.000 Yeah.

03:01:13.000 That's right.

03:01:14.000 Wagovi.

03:01:15.000 And there's another.

03:01:15.000 There's a bunch of different names for them.

03:01:16.000 They're basically, it's a GLP-1.

03:01:19.000 It's a peptide.

03:01:21.000 And I mean, there's good press about it, there's bad press about it.

03:01:23.000 It's like, you know, the person I saw this morning, like, she's like, I lost 60 pounds.

03:01:27.000 Like, I was going to, like, it was, you know, she's like, even if there's side effects, like, I was going to get diabetes.

03:01:33.000 Like, it was bad, you know?

03:01:34.000 Like, 100%.

03:01:35.000 Obesity was our big problem.

03:01:37.000 So, you know.

03:01:38.000 It's like almost everything.

03:01:40.000 There's like goods and bad stuff.

03:01:42.000 I took Accutane when I was, I think, 14 or 15, and they're like, oh, well, a side effect is you're suicidal.

03:01:47.000 I'm like, when you're 15 and you have acne, you're suicidal.

03:01:51.000 Like, I'll take whatever the side effects are.

03:01:53.000 Yo, this is nuts.

03:01:55.000 Okay, no full year total, exact full year total, publicly available from major sources as data through September shows rapid growth but lacks a December closeout.

03:02:07.000 True Veta data reports 12,203,009 GLP1 prescriptions from January 2018 to September 2025.

03:02:19.000 Wow.

03:02:21.000 12 million prescriptions is a lot.

03:02:23.000 But I got to think that's way more today because in 2018, you're not getting a lot of people.

03:02:29.000 Like I would like to see like a chart of when it kicks in.

03:02:32.000 So it's 6.5% of all U.S. prescriptions up slightly from prior quarters.

03:02:37.000 And when your insurance companies, they should theoretically support it and pay for it.

03:02:40.000 Well, definitely if you're morbidly obese, it'll prevent you from a lot of real problems of morbid obesity if you really get it together with this shit.

03:02:48.000 And then when there's a bunch of negative stuff about it, I'm like, did the lap band pay for this?

03:02:51.000 Well, it's all, look, you can definitely have side effects.

03:02:54.000 Like Brian Simpson took it and he had horrible side effects.

03:02:58.000 He had to get off of it.

03:02:59.000 But it also, there's a lot of people that took it and they lost 100 pounds and they're way healthier than they would be before.

03:03:05.000 It's just like the way Brigham Bueller from Waste to Well described, he says like it has to be taken conjunction with other things that keep your body from wasting away.

03:03:14.000 And you should be doing strength.

03:03:15.000 Like Peter Attiz talked about this as well.

03:03:17.000 You should be doing strength training while you're doing it.

03:03:20.000 Like because you're going to lose weight because you're at a calorie deficit.

03:03:24.000 So you're going to lose muscle too and you're going to lose bone density.

03:03:26.000 So you got to mitigate that.

03:03:28.000 So there's an idea that they would combine them with, I think they did something with peptides with like an IGF-1 along with this and the two of them together keep you from wasting away.

03:03:38.000 Yeah, I was doing like that metformin for a minute and I was like, yeah, you lose muscle mass, but you're like, but also the effect of sugar, like, you know, so now I'll just take it every now and then when I eat like a lot of pasta or I want to have like a, you know.

03:03:50.000 The metformin one's very polarizing.

03:03:52.000 A lot of people really believe in it.

03:03:54.000 A lot of people think it's a crazy idea.

03:03:55.000 Yeah.

03:03:57.000 I'm like, I'm pretty steady.

03:03:58.000 I do like the NMN, NR, which is like the true niogen stuff. 0.99

03:04:02.000 I mean, huberman is I'm just like, tell me what to do.

03:04:05.000 NAC.

03:04:08.000 I'm like, I'm sauna.

03:04:11.000 And then also sometimes it's like the absence of things.

03:04:13.000 Sometimes like, what are you doing?

03:04:14.000 It's like, what are you not doing?

03:04:15.000 Like, there's a point where you're just like, that person's an acquaintance, not a friend.

03:04:19.000 Like, there's certain like, I feel like maybe it's when you become a mom, you have to also reassess like your emotional diet or your mental diet of like as well.

03:04:28.000 Yeah.

03:04:29.000 You just have to do that as an adult anyway.

03:04:31.000 Otherwise, you're just going to want to problems all the time that are totally avoidable.

03:04:31.000 True.

03:04:36.000 Yeah.

03:04:36.000 And they're not, these people just, they make the same fucking mistakes over and over and over.

03:04:40.000 That's right.

03:04:41.000 They drag you into their bullshit.

03:04:43.000 And you don't want to change.

03:04:44.000 Like you're like, you're addicted to adrenaline.

03:04:46.000 I'm obsessed with all the addictions that aren't like a substance, drugs, alcohol.

03:04:50.000 It's like, oh, you're a gambling addict just with women or just with men or like you're an adrenaline, a drama addict.

03:04:55.000 Like I can't.

03:04:56.000 It's like, do you, this is how I say it.

03:04:58.000 Do you look forward to hanging out with that person?

03:05:00.000 And if you don't, then it's a chore.

03:05:02.000 If you look forward to hanging out with someone, like even if they're crazy, it's like, all right, it's okay.

03:05:07.000 Yeah, totally.

03:05:07.000 It's okay.

03:05:08.000 This is fun.

03:05:10.000 It's all like, what are we all doing?

03:05:13.000 We're all trying to get along together.

03:05:15.000 And if one of us is not trying to do that, one of us is out for self.

03:05:19.000 Yeah.

03:05:20.000 You know, there's certain people that are just, they just can't get their shit together.

03:05:24.000 Yeah.

03:05:24.000 And desperate people do desperate stuff.

03:05:26.000 And I think that with what we do, like, you know, it's interesting because some friendships, you know, they'll just be like, oh, come on the podcast.

03:05:32.000 And it's like, we haven't hung out, though, either.

03:05:34.000 Like, we don't text.

03:05:35.000 Like, comics, I think it becomes transactional.

03:05:39.000 It starts feeling weird.

03:05:40.000 Such a big part of what you've done, like for comedy is like, you know, that green room and having a space that's like not on camera.

03:05:47.000 Like comics, I think, started going so crazy during the pandemic, myself being one of them, because it's like all of our conversations were monetized and for public consumption.

03:05:54.000 We stopped just hanging out off camera.

03:05:56.000 Right.

03:05:57.000 And a lot of people were doing it remotely.

03:05:59.000 So they were having podcasts remotely with their friends.

03:06:02.000 That was like their only human interaction.

03:06:04.000 That's right.

03:06:04.000 That's so bad.

03:06:06.000 Nothing I did during the pandemic should have been filmed.

03:06:09.000 But like, you know, we also have to actively go out of our way to be off camera too, guys, you know?

03:06:14.000 Yeah.

03:06:14.000 Well, communities.

03:06:16.000 Like, it's so important.

03:06:17.000 Yeah.

03:06:17.000 The people that don't think it's important just don't have it.

03:06:19.000 That's right.

03:06:20.000 If you have it and you have a bunch of friends and you get to hang out and have fun together, it's like, oh, it's like a like, it's like stepping into a well of love.

03:06:29.000 Like, that's a, oh, we're all here.

03:06:31.000 What's up?

03:06:32.000 You also just like, like, you know, I don't have to tell you, you know, those comics that you like look up to so much of their legends.

03:06:37.000 And then all of a sudden they just stop being funny.

03:06:40.000 And you're like, how did this happen?

03:06:41.000 You know, whether it's because they've, you know, incubated themselves against, you know, doing what normal people do on a daily basis and, you know, assistance.

03:06:50.000 But they've surrounded themselves.

03:06:51.000 They're not friends with comics.

03:06:53.000 It's always that.

03:06:54.000 It's like, how did that person sound?

03:06:55.000 They're just not friends with comics.

03:06:56.000 And they don't have someone humbling them constantly and pushing back and giving them shit.

03:07:01.000 And all the motivations that got them to be funny when they were younger have been eliminated because almost all of it is try to get extra attention from girls or from your friends.

03:07:09.000 You're trying to be funny.

03:07:10.000 You have no motivation to be funny anymore because everybody loves you and you're rich.

03:07:14.000 And being a comic is a lot, I think, of like having almost intentional contrarian Tourette's where you'll just say some shit that like merry, it's a crazy premise.

03:07:24.000 Like sometimes stand-up is like saying something that isn't true and then proving it, you know?

03:07:29.000 And to say some and have someone fight back with you.

03:07:31.000 That's why I think comics, when people are like, why do comics talk about woke culture so much?

03:07:35.000 It's like, because we see disagreeing as an interesting conversation.

03:07:39.000 You guys see it as fascism.

03:07:41.000 And like.

03:07:42.000 Also, woke culture is trying to dictate what people can and can't say.

03:07:46.000 And we can disagree.

03:07:48.000 And you can't tell me what I can and can't say.

03:07:50.000 My body, my choice, but not what your mouth does.

03:07:52.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

03:07:53.000 You can't just say, and you can't just start saying punch a Nazi.

03:07:56.000 Like, settle down.

03:07:57.000 Yeah, yeah.

03:07:57.000 You can figure out what a Nazi really is.

03:07:59.000 Yeah.

03:07:59.000 What are you saying?

03:08:01.000 You're a Nazi because you don't think biological males should be competing with women in sports?

03:08:05.000 Because I've heard that thrown out that way.

03:08:07.000 Well, that's crazy talk.

03:08:09.000 You don't get to define things like that.

03:08:11.000 That's what you're doing when you're fighting against woke culture.

03:08:13.000 You're fighting against nonsense that can't stand up to facts.

03:08:17.000 And the thing about things that stand up to facts is people usually don't defend them violently.

03:08:21.000 They usually discuss them clearly because it's obvious.

03:08:24.000 This one, it's not backed up by facts.

03:08:27.000 Yeah.

03:08:27.000 So the opposition of it is like violent and angry.

03:08:31.000 Like they want to stop debate.

03:08:33.000 They want to stop conversation.

03:08:34.000 This is what the problem with woke culture is.

03:08:37.000 It's just an ideology like any other one.

03:08:39.000 It's got its own rules.

03:08:41.000 And because it's not based on logic, it has to be very angry.

03:08:44.000 It has to scare you.

03:08:45.000 Did people look at hippies like this in the 70s?

03:08:47.000 They wanted to do that.

03:08:49.000 That's how the CIA tricked the fucking hippies into doing all that Manson shit. 0.52

03:08:54.000 That's what they were trying to do with the whole Charles Manson.

03:08:57.000 Have you ever read that Tom?

03:09:01.000 Chaos?

03:09:02.000 I have it.

03:09:02.000 I've started it.

03:09:03.000 Tom O'Neill's book.

03:09:04.000 It's fucking incredible.

03:09:06.000 Can't recommend it enough.

03:09:07.000 Yeah, I know.

03:09:09.000 But it's all about them discrediting.

03:09:11.000 So they were terrified of the love movement.

03:09:13.000 They were terrified of all these people that were taking acid and going to Woodstock.

03:09:17.000 And they were like, Jesus Christ, we're losing the cultural battle.

03:09:22.000 And so they got together with Charles Manson and gave him a bunch of acid and taught him how to mind fuck people.

03:09:29.000 And this guy went out and killed a bunch of people and they blamed it on the hippies.

03:09:32.000 They're like, oh my God, we got to make acid illegal.

03:09:35.000 They made acid illegal like that year.

03:09:38.000 And then the whole world went kooky.

03:09:40.000 They shut down all the psychedelics.

03:09:42.000 That was the sweeping Schedule I act of 1970.

03:09:45.000 Like, when was the Manson murders?

03:09:47.000 What year was the Manson murders?

03:09:48.000 And while you're finding that, I'm obsessed with CIA, the Philippines operation in the 50s, where they made it look like vampires sucked the blood of a bunch of the rebels.

03:09:57.000 Have you seen this?

03:09:58.000 Did they really?

03:09:59.000 I've heard about this before.

03:10:01.000 It's so sick.

03:10:01.000 I forget about it.

03:10:02.000 69.

03:10:03.000 So the Manson murders happened in 69.

03:10:05.000 Oh, yeah.

03:10:06.000 In 1970, acid, mushrooms, DMT, all that stuff becomes illegal.

03:10:12.000 Schedule one.

03:10:14.000 Yeah.

03:10:15.000 That's crazy.

03:10:16.000 They threw water on a movement of people abandoning this path that they see their family on, their mother and their father, and they're not happy.

03:10:27.000 And these people are dying unhappy.

03:10:29.000 And they're getting heart attacks and they're dropping dead at 60.

03:10:32.000 And these kids are saying, I don't want that in my life.

03:10:34.000 I want to follow the Grateful Dead.

03:10:36.000 I want to make art.

03:10:37.000 I want to dance.

03:10:38.000 I want to go to music festivals.

03:10:39.000 I'll figure out how to live.

03:10:41.000 And they were like, no fucking way.

03:10:43.000 We don't want war.

03:10:44.000 Make love, not war.

03:10:45.000 Americans in the street saying love not war.

03:10:45.000 What?

03:10:50.000 Never before.

03:10:51.000 Not 1947, right?

03:10:54.000 Think about the end of World War II.

03:10:56.000 You couldn't imagine Americans in the street, but in 1967, they're doing it. 1.00

03:11:01.000 1967, they don't want to go to Vietnam.

03:11:04.000 And they're saying no to war.

03:11:05.000 And they're in the street and they're wearing flowers.

03:11:07.000 They call them flower children.

03:11:09.000 That's crazy.

03:11:09.000 So they had to turn them into monsters.

03:11:11.000 And so they got Manson.

03:11:12.000 Women had to wear bras again. 1.00

03:11:14.000 Nightmare.

03:11:16.000 Like, I got in a wormhole on the CIA and Hendrix and Cobain.

03:11:16.000 All that stuff.

03:11:22.000 I'm like, I just can't.

03:11:23.000 There's certain things.

03:11:24.000 I think they have their fingers in probably everything they can get their fingers in.

03:11:28.000 Yeah.

03:11:28.000 All of it.

03:11:29.000 And do they have to?

03:11:30.000 I think they do.

03:11:31.000 Like in the middle.

03:11:32.000 In some ways, but the problem is they have power that they probably shouldn't have.

03:11:35.000 And then there's always going to be some crazy guy who keeps pushing things.

03:11:39.000 And next thing you know, you're selling Coke in Nicaragua.

03:11:42.000 Dude, this guy.

03:11:43.000 So it was, there was some like myth in the Philippines about this like vampire that would kill people, whatever it was.

03:11:49.000 And then they, in the middle of the night, take these rebels that they need to deal with and they drain them of their blood.

03:11:55.000 Sorry, puncture.

03:11:56.000 I'm just obsessed with the guy that had to do the puncture marks.

03:11:58.000 Like there's a guy who had to like do the vampire marks.

03:12:01.000 And so that everybody woke up and these rebels that they were following, they saw that they had been attacked by vampires.

03:12:07.000 How did they kill them before they drained their blood?

03:12:12.000 How many dudes did they whack too? 0.96

03:12:13.000 That's kind of crazy.

03:12:14.000 That's so wild.

03:12:15.000 That's a great idea.

03:12:16.000 So sick.

03:12:17.000 That's what I'm saying.

03:12:18.000 Imagine if you were a fucking soldier and you thought you were really in a blade movie.

03:12:22.000 You thought this shit was real.

03:12:24.000 Like if you're living in the Philippines and what, I mean, I don't know what their education was, right?

03:12:28.000 I imagine it's not the best.

03:12:29.000 Yep.

03:12:30.000 If you're fighting vampires.

03:12:31.000 Right.

03:12:32.000 Or you think vampires are real.

03:12:34.000 But imagine being the guy who was like, that's not real.

03:12:36.000 The Philippines guy that's like, that's not real. 1.00

03:12:38.000 And then I was like, oh, shit.

03:12:39.000 That's crazy.

03:12:41.000 Or the guy who's like, told ya.

03:12:43.000 That's crazy.

03:12:44.000 Just the Kurt Metzger who's like, told ya.

03:12:47.000 What year was this?

03:12:48.000 The 50s?

03:12:49.000 Wow.

03:12:50.000 It's the Oshwaga. 0.98

03:12:51.000 Was it called the Oshwaga?

03:12:52.000 Was the name of the vampires they were scared of?

03:12:58.000 People are so nuts.

03:13:00.000 They really are so.

03:13:00.000 But this is like when you read this stuff about the CIA and you're like, what are they doing now to make it look like this?

03:13:05.000 And it's really that.

03:13:06.000 So the CIA combat CI war squad.

03:13:10.000 So it says the Psy War squad set up an ambush along the trail used by the Hucks. 0.89

03:13:15.000 When a Huck patrol came along the trail, the ambushers silently snatched the last man of the patrol.

03:13:20.000 Their move unseen in the dark night.

03:13:22.000 They punctured his neck with two holes, vampire fashion, held the body up by its heels, drained it of blood, and then put the corpse back on the trail.

03:13:32.000 When the Hucks returned looking for the missing man and found their bloodless comrade, every member of the patrol believed that the Aswang had got him and that one of them would be next if they remained on that hill. 0.97

03:13:43.000 When daylight came, the whole Huck squadron moved out of the vicinity.

03:13:48.000 Wow, what a gangster.

03:13:49.000 CIA trained squad of fire.

03:13:50.000 How many times did they do it?

03:13:54.000 So sick.

03:13:55.000 So, what's the number attack that they did it to?

03:13:59.000 Apparently, only used once.

03:14:01.000 To dislodge a squadron or something.

03:14:03.000 So it was only one time that they did one guy?

03:14:05.000 No, it was only one body.

03:14:06.000 What a dope move. 1.00

03:14:08.000 So sick.

03:14:09.000 That's all you got to do to let the fear spread.

03:14:11.000 I love that shit.

03:14:12.000 I would run off that fucking mountain.

03:14:13.000 I'm not convinced vampires aren't real.

03:14:15.000 I'm not convinced.

03:14:18.000 I see what I saw.

03:14:19.000 I know what I saw.

03:14:20.000 Even if it's an animal.

03:14:21.000 I think mathematically they can't exist.

03:14:24.000 I think someone has actually done the numbers on this that mathematically wind up killing everyone.

03:14:32.000 Oh, interesting.

03:14:33.000 It would be nothing but someone else researched it and said that it might not have even worked because they didn't have a vampire-like lore in the region.

03:14:41.000 They had something else where they said that they fed on the business.

03:14:43.000 Who's this hater, Dork?

03:14:45.000 Fed on fetuses of pregnant woman. 0.98

03:14:50.000 Yeah, but either way, it's a monster that drained the guy of its blood by biting him in the neck.

03:14:57.000 But it's also like, there's not vampires.

03:14:58.000 Oh, there's just the American CIA.

03:15:00.000 Even worse.

03:15:01.000 I'd rather there be fucking vampires, dude.

03:15:03.000 Which description was from the CIA guy?

03:15:06.000 They even tried to do it.

03:15:08.000 We're all so fucked.

03:15:09.000 Which description was from the CIA guy?

03:15:10.000 That one that you read was from Lansdale, and Lansdale is this guy who— Yeah, that guy's a vampire.

03:15:15.000 What are you talking about?

03:15:16.000 So he's the ad exec, turned CIA operative who masterminded the plot.

03:15:21.000 What a fucking genius.

03:15:22.000 I love shit like that.

03:15:23.000 What a genius.

03:15:24.000 But there's something going on here right now that is that.

03:15:27.000 Being in a room doing coke and pitching that idea.

03:15:29.000 Okay, guys, I have an idea.

03:15:32.000 Fucking vampires.

03:15:34.000 You know that hole puncher that we use down here? 1.00

03:15:37.000 I have an idea.

03:15:38.000 And for everyone, it was like, for a second.

03:15:40.000 You snatch the guy and you have to keep him from yelling.

03:15:42.000 So you have to cover his mouth.

03:15:44.000 He's got to be the last guy in the patrol.

03:15:46.000 You have to snatch him so the guy right in front of him doesn't hear it.

03:15:51.000 That's a lot of muffling.

03:15:53.000 Keep him from screaming.

03:15:53.000 You got to hold on to his body.

03:15:55.000 Keep him from fighting back and reaching for a weapon.

03:15:57.000 Don't you think they put something like a needle with a...

03:15:59.000 It doesn't sound like they did.

03:16:00.000 Not yet.

03:16:01.000 It sounds like they just held that guy and cut his fucking neck and then hung him up by his ankles.

03:16:05.000 This is always my thing.

03:16:06.000 If this is what we know, what do we not know?

03:16:08.000 Oh, we don't know a lot.

03:16:09.000 We all know a lot.

03:16:09.000 Anything.

03:16:10.000 Especially when crazy stuff comes out.

03:16:12.000 I'm like, if this is like Epstein list, whatever, if this is what they told us, it's so bad.

03:16:16.000 They did one vampire thing.

03:16:17.000 That was the first time they ever did that shit.

03:16:20.000 They had to practice a couple times.

03:16:22.000 A few times it didn't work at all.

03:16:23.000 They had to practice blindfolded.

03:16:24.000 They had to scream.

03:16:25.000 They had to kill everyone.

03:16:27.000 Lansdale brags about an improvised bit of homemade voodoo he called the Eye of God.

03:16:31.000 It was based on a World War II cywar tactic of learning the names of individual German officers and announcing on the battlefield over loudspeakers that they'd be the next to die if they didn't surrender.

03:16:43.000 Holy shit.

03:16:45.000 Lansdale's twist was to paint a cryptic symbol he called the Eye of God outside the homes of suspected Huck sympathizers.

03:16:53.000 The mysterious presence of these malevolent eyes the next morning had a sharply sobering effect, wrote Lonsdale.

03:17:00.000 That's crazy.

03:17:01.000 Isn't it like Lansdale?

03:17:02.000 Does stuff like that make you feel like people are monsters?

03:17:06.000 Like we're like fake news.

03:17:08.000 News has just always been like maybe this is the realest, truest news we've ever had.

03:17:13.000 When you think about back then, it was all just gossip.

03:17:16.000 Yeah.

03:17:18.000 Well, I think they definitely controlled the news way better back then.

03:17:21.000 And they can do things like the Gulf of Tonkin.

03:17:23.000 Yeah.

03:17:24.000 You know, where they just decide that they're going to pretend that we got attacked so that we can go to war.

03:17:28.000 And who knows how many people died because of that?

03:17:30.000 And that's crazy that they did it and got away with it.

03:17:33.000 That's a real tactic.

03:17:35.000 Well, I think this is the crazy part is that he was an adwiz for all these companies and then he volunteered to go to the army and they recognized his special talents.

03:17:44.000 He's like, I'm not getting enough evil done working for Nabisco.

03:17:47.000 He's the pioneer of psychological.

03:17:50.000 Wait, Started psyops.

03:17:54.000 This is fascinating because this is like, I've worked, I sell jeans that cost $10 for $80.

03:18:00.000 Like, trust me, I know how to trick people.

03:18:03.000 Like, it's so fascinating when you're like, people went from working in an ad agency to sell products to like convincing people vampires were real.

03:18:12.000 Fucking genius.

03:18:13.000 Yeah.

03:18:14.000 I mean, it's like genius.

03:18:16.000 What a great idea.

03:18:17.000 And what's the genius thing now that we're being convinced of?

03:18:20.000 That's like.

03:18:21.000 Oh, I bet they do some of the stuff just for fun to keep practicing.

03:18:24.000 Remember, like, charcoal toothpaste was a thing?

03:18:26.000 I'm like, I use that every day.

03:18:27.000 Charcoal in your mouth.

03:18:28.000 In my mouth.

03:18:30.000 Works.

03:18:31.000 Because charcoal absorbs.

03:18:34.000 It cleans your teeth.

03:18:35.000 It's really good at cleaning your teeth.

03:18:37.000 Where did we land on this root canals or bad thing?

03:18:39.000 I don't know about that.

03:18:40.000 I'm meaning to talk to my orthodontist about it.

03:18:42.000 I haven't had a chance.

03:18:43.000 I'm just trying to figure out.

03:18:44.000 I know a bunch of people that are thinking about getting their root canals removed and getting a post put in.

03:18:48.000 I'm like, is that better?

03:18:50.000 You're going to get a fucking drill bit.

03:18:52.000 But isn't it more about opening it and bacteria getting in and getting into your lining of your brain?

03:18:57.000 I can't.

03:18:58.000 I know, me too.

03:18:59.000 I'm like, dude, I've been sucking on coconut oil and doing black seed oil in my mouth.

03:19:03.000 It's like, tell me what to do.

03:19:05.000 I'll start eating charcoal if that's what needs to happen.

03:19:07.000 So this is, I don't know.

03:19:09.000 But like, yeah, what are the things that we're kind of like falling for right now or being scared of?

03:19:13.000 Like, I feel like there are a lot of tests, like, drone.

03:19:15.000 Well, what are the things that are bothering us that we don't know about?

03:19:18.000 Like the Iridium girls?

03:19:20.000 Like, what about Wi-Fi?

03:19:21.000 What if we find out that Wi-Fi is making us less and less in tune with our life or less in tune with our environment or dulls a certain part of your brain?

03:19:30.000 I think with or without the like beams harming us, the phone is doing that anyway, right?

03:19:36.000 Has there been any long-term studies on sci-fi or excuse me, cell phone sci-fi, cell phone signals on their interference with things other than bees?

03:19:47.000 Because I know they do interfere with bees.

03:19:49.000 Well, isn't that, was that confirmed?

03:19:51.000 Because it also could have been fertilizer.

03:19:53.000 Well, I think there's something, there's a reason why they believe that it has an impact.

03:19:58.000 What is the reason why they think cell phone signals have an impact?

03:20:01.000 An impact on bees?

03:20:02.000 I think that's not pseudoscience.

03:20:04.000 I think there's a real reason for believing that.

03:20:08.000 Something about how they navigate and what they do, that those signals that are in the air with them could fuck them up.

03:20:14.000 I don't understand.

03:20:15.000 I am on, I have a lot of Wi-Fi in my house and I have bees fucking everywhere.

03:20:19.000 But yeah.

03:20:20.000 That may be why.

03:20:20.000 They're like, yeah, yeah.

03:20:22.000 Maybe it's like.

03:20:23.000 Maybe it's like 11 when they turn on the sirens.

03:20:27.000 When I was pregnant, I was listening to like whale sounds a lot.

03:20:30.000 Oh, that's so crazy.

03:20:32.000 Because when you have a baby and you, it's like an amphibian.

03:20:35.000 It's breathing fluid, right?

03:20:37.000 That's smart.

03:20:38.000 And then I was like, but what if these whales are like fighting?

03:20:40.000 Like, I don't know what they're saying.

03:20:41.000 They're saying a bunch of races.

03:20:42.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

03:20:43.000 Yes, cell phone signals can affect bees, causing behavioral changes like increased agitation and worker piping, an alarm sound indicating disturbance.

03:20:53.000 Those sensationalized claims linking them directly to mass colony collapse are not fully supported by science.

03:20:58.000 Studies show bees are sensitive to the electromagnetic fields from active phones disrupting their normal communication and potentially leading to disorientation.

03:21:07.000 So here's the thing.

03:21:09.000 Do we know if it affects us?

03:21:12.000 Like, we don't really know.

03:21:13.000 I mean, there's a lot of people that are, oh, EMF man.

03:21:15.000 And there's a lot of people who are like, oh, it's all bullshit.

03:21:18.000 But what is the reality?

03:21:19.000 Do we really know?

03:21:20.000 And isn't all this stuff fairly recent?

03:21:22.000 Yeah, I mean, there is, Jamie, you can find this, and I won't to corroborate it because I won't know the exact year, but T-Mobile had put aside like a lot of money for possible lawsuits with all this stuff.

03:21:34.000 So I did the, I did, you know, I always have some weird side thing.

03:21:39.000 When you made a documentary on violence.

03:21:41.000 That's right.

03:21:42.000 On Calcio Historico with Pete Berg, by the way.

03:21:45.000 And I still want to go.

03:21:48.000 I still want to go.

03:21:49.000 It's every June.

03:21:49.000 It's in Florida.

03:21:50.000 When you want to go to see Calcius Dorco?

03:21:53.000 No.

03:21:54.000 That would be so good.

03:21:55.000 That would be so sick.

03:21:57.000 Because it's not trained fighters.

03:21:59.000 It's just like butchers.

03:22:00.000 Oh, those guys are trained.

03:22:01.000 Oh, I mean, they're not like professional.

03:22:03.000 I mean, oh, I don't know about that.

03:22:05.000 Some of them look like they absolutely knew how to fight.

03:22:05.000 Oh, really?

03:22:08.000 They train all year to do this, but they're not like- Is that sure?

03:22:08.000 Agreed.

03:22:11.000 Are you sure?

03:22:12.000 They don't have any MMA fights or anything?

03:22:14.000 Maybe.

03:22:14.000 I don't know.

03:22:15.000 I'm watching some of those guys.

03:22:16.000 I'm like, that guy looks like he's fought.

03:22:18.000 They're all training all year for this thing, but I think they have other jobs like professionally.

03:22:22.000 It's kind of like, and it's okay.

03:22:25.000 But yeah, they all look like they're like.

03:22:27.000 Just like a few guys look like ringers.

03:22:27.000 But not all of them.

03:22:29.000 Yeah.

03:22:30.000 When I'm watching it, I'm watching these guys duke it out.

03:22:32.000 Some guys look like they belong there, and other guys look like that's an MMA fighter.

03:22:36.000 That's a guy who's throwing leg kicks.

03:22:39.000 And they say that crime goes down in the region to zero during that month.

03:22:45.000 I mean, why am I opposed to that when I'm not opposed to MMA?

03:22:49.000 I don't know.

03:22:50.000 Yeah.

03:22:50.000 Oh, yeah.

03:22:51.000 I mean, it probably just will annoy you to watch people so bad at this getting.

03:22:55.000 No, no, it's not even that.

03:22:56.000 It's just like, I worry that we're moving in a direction where violence is team violence.

03:23:04.000 Team violence like that leads to fucking war.

03:23:07.000 Like individual violence is a one-on-one person.

03:23:10.000 It's your skills against his skills, your mind against his mind, your will, how well you've prepared, the discipline you showed in training, your IQ in terms of fighting IQ.

03:23:21.000 That's a fascinating contest to me.

03:23:23.000 But when you see teams of dudes running at each other and fucking each other up like that, to me is like, what are you asking for?

03:23:32.000 Okay, what are you getting people excited about?

03:23:34.000 And what fascinates me about it is what we were talking about earlier with the AI and everything of like knowing what humans need in order to stay, whether it's satiated, you know, bridled in some way of like, if AI takes away all the hard things or whatever, like with a whack-a-mole of what are people going to start doing, you know, when they don't have, like, if AI is like, this is too crazy, you guys are fighting too much.

03:23:56.000 It's like, but if we're born to kind of fight and need take track, that's why we're going to have to integrate.

03:24:01.000 Yeah, merge.

03:24:03.000 Put that chip in your brain, Whitney.

03:24:06.000 Look.

03:24:08.000 We're all going to have to.

03:24:09.000 I think I have worse things in my brain.

03:24:10.000 It's like we're all saying, like, oh, I don't want email.

03:24:13.000 Everybody has an email.

03:24:14.000 We've already merged with our phones.

03:24:16.000 I mean, when I leave my phone, I feel it in my gut.

03:24:18.000 100%.

03:24:19.000 I'm like, where is it?

03:24:20.000 100%.

03:24:21.000 Like, there's times that I'm like driving home and I'm like, I've completely atrophied.

03:24:27.000 Like, I don't even have peripheral vision.

03:24:29.000 I don't have muscle memory of how to get home.

03:24:31.000 You forgot.

03:24:31.000 Right.

03:24:32.000 You forgot how to navigate LA.

03:24:33.000 Like, we are a unit.

03:24:33.000 Yeah.

03:24:34.000 If you try to go through LA and you don't have a navigation system now, you're fucked.

03:24:38.000 They call photos memories because your memories are in there.

03:24:41.000 They're not in your head.

03:24:44.000 It's like I look with memories and I'm like, oh, I forgot about that.

03:24:47.000 Because it's in here.

03:24:48.000 Right.

03:24:49.000 You literally don't even remember.

03:24:50.000 And then you see the picture and now you remember.

03:24:52.000 They do like a year ago today.

03:24:52.000 Yeah.

03:24:53.000 I'm like, oh, right.

03:24:54.000 Right.

03:24:55.000 I didn't log that.
