00:00:37.600 The Michael Knoll show is my favorite show.
00:00:41.040 Oh, well, that's an obvious one.
00:00:42.620 Even before you put your answer down, it seems so obvious.
00:00:46.820 The answer would be yes.
00:00:48.660 Like, no.
00:00:51.120 No, no, what?
00:00:52.240 What?
00:00:52.760 Oh, God.
00:00:56.980 I'm here at the Bitcoin conference.
00:00:59.520 I don't know anything about Bitcoin.
00:01:01.360 I don't know anything about most of the people here.
00:01:03.700 But I am going to get to know them through the yes or no game.
00:01:07.600 I'm joined by Mike Germano, president of Bitcoin magazine.
00:01:11.420 Russell Okung, the first player of any sort to do his contract in Bitcoin.
00:01:16.800 I'm here with Uncle Rockstar developer.
00:01:18.920 I feel that I'm at a bit of a disadvantage because we have to guess what the other person thinks.
00:01:22.820 That you are a complete enigma to me right now.
00:01:25.420 I'm joined by maybe the perfect guest for this game.
00:01:28.760 One of the very first guests on my show back in 2017.
00:01:32.440 That's true.
00:01:33.080 That would be the Mooch.
00:01:34.660 In Los Angeles.
00:01:35.240 In Los Angeles.
00:01:35.820 That's right.
00:01:36.560 You look good.
00:01:37.300 Thank you, sir.
00:01:38.140 You as well.
00:01:38.820 You've got good hair products.
00:01:40.080 Thank you.
00:01:40.720 I would have to.
00:01:41.440 This is not flattery.
00:01:42.860 I'm a student of hair products.
00:01:43.860 You're an expert.
00:01:45.520 The rules, you know, we kind of make them up as we go along.
00:01:48.640 All right, here we go.
00:01:48.920 I begin.
00:01:50.380 Yep.
00:01:51.200 I, so you have to answer if I.
00:01:53.060 Yep.
00:01:53.680 Have watched a romantic comedy alone.
00:01:57.620 I am going to say me, myself, and Irene.
00:02:02.020 Yeah, okay.
00:02:02.600 Of course she did.
00:02:02.920 That's obviously.
00:02:03.820 Of course she did.
00:02:04.500 She's like a little bit of a metrosexual.
00:02:06.380 You know what I mean?
00:02:07.260 I knew that.
00:02:08.280 New York, Italian.
00:02:09.460 Sometimes it's hard to understand.
00:02:11.560 We probably cried during it as well.
00:02:13.300 Feminism has made women miserable.
00:02:16.880 Oh, man.
00:02:17.480 You guys have easy.
00:02:18.900 Yeah, yeah.
00:02:19.440 That's not.
00:02:20.080 You don't even need to put the answer down.
00:02:21.660 It's an obvious yes.
00:02:24.620 Can I go with maybe?
00:02:26.280 Maybe.
00:02:27.200 An obvious maybe.
00:02:27.900 Okay, yeah.
00:02:28.500 It's a yes.
00:02:29.060 It's a yes.
00:02:29.900 Okay.
00:02:30.220 I mean, it depends on which group, but yeah.
00:02:35.140 You need to take the ownership.
00:02:37.920 You can't be a victim.
00:02:38.860 So, with feminism, a lot of it has turned into, okay, there are actual problems versus
00:02:45.680 who is the best victim.
00:02:48.600 Right.
00:02:48.660 And you don't want to platform those people because as soon as you solve their one problem,
00:02:55.700 they're going to invent another problem.
00:02:57.320 That's the thing.
00:02:57.820 And another problem.
00:02:58.440 There's no end to it.
00:02:59.540 Yeah.
00:03:00.000 And I'm absolute feminist.
00:03:03.180 I'm a woman.
00:03:03.780 You're a feminist.
00:03:04.500 I'm a woman.
00:03:05.060 You could be a woman.
00:03:05.880 For all I know, what do I know?
00:03:07.340 Well, she, her, we should let pandas go extinct.
00:03:12.540 All right, now I'm going to, I'll put my guess down so I'm not cheating.
00:03:17.020 Okay.
00:03:19.260 All right, now, I really-
00:03:20.860 You have to guess what I think.
00:03:22.500 Correct.
00:03:23.020 Okay.
00:03:23.760 My answer, I believe that you believe pandas should go extinct because you don't like the
00:03:27.700 fact that we have to rely on China in order to borrow them.
00:03:32.440 Is that correct?
00:03:33.300 You got to put your card?
00:03:34.480 Oh.
00:03:34.640 No, you say yes.
00:03:36.560 I say no.
00:03:41.780 I say no.
00:03:42.380 Now, it's a little bit of a trick question because I watched this YouTube video once where the
00:03:46.820 guy convinced me that pandas don't actually exist.
00:03:50.320 Okay.
00:03:50.720 It's just men in panda suits.
00:03:52.360 But now, other than I, I now think they do exist.
00:03:55.220 And I don't like being reliant on China.
00:03:58.120 I don't, however, they're very big and cuddly and silly.
00:04:01.360 And because of how superfluous they are, I would like them to remain.
00:04:06.040 That's an easy one.
00:04:11.420 It should be easy for you.
00:04:12.680 Okay.
00:04:14.900 Michael Jordan is the best basketball player of all time.
00:04:19.020 But now, the way you said it, it makes me think there's like a trick.
00:04:25.020 So, I would just, my intuitive answer would be yes.
00:04:33.100 Yes.
00:04:33.540 Okay.
00:04:33.900 All right.
00:04:34.240 I didn't know if there was some, like, trick in there or something.
00:04:37.040 Okay.
00:04:37.420 Well, you know, some people.
00:04:38.360 Like you played it in college or something.
00:04:39.640 No, I didn't play it, but I mean, some people should know better by now.
00:04:41.880 I don't know why it's even a debate.
00:04:43.580 Yeah.
00:04:44.120 All right.
00:04:45.300 Global warming is 100% fake.
00:04:47.740 Oh, well, that's, no, I got to guess what you think.
00:04:50.760 Oh, you're guessing what I?
00:04:51.760 I'm going to guess what you think about that.
00:04:52.640 Oh, okay.
00:04:53.120 All right.
00:04:53.280 I'm going to say that you, global warming is 100% fake.
00:04:58.980 You're going to say no.
00:04:59.940 I'm going to say no.
00:05:00.740 It's only 99% fake.
00:05:01.840 Yeah, it's probably 50% fake, but it's not 100% fake.
00:05:05.580 We are doing something bad to the environment.
00:05:07.640 I don't know exactly why.
00:05:08.340 That's a reasonable moderate position.
00:05:09.780 I am close friends with someone who has pronouns in their bio.
00:05:15.400 You're a good person, so you have some people that are lost, so you're like, yes.
00:05:20.740 Well, I was trying to think, because when you say close friends, in their bio.
00:05:24.480 Yeah, yeah.
00:05:24.880 Now, I've got friends who are confused about all sorts of stuff on many levels, but I was
00:05:30.200 thinking, okay, but do they have it in their bio?
00:05:32.460 And I think they might, but it's usually as a joke.
00:05:36.080 You know, it's like pronouns, his majesty, or something like that.
00:05:39.780 You know?
00:05:40.140 Hey, rock star, right?
00:05:41.860 Rock star.
00:05:42.440 No.
00:05:42.960 Yeah.
00:05:43.180 As an immigrant, I must tell you something.
00:05:45.260 Like, in most of the world's languages, there is a way to formally address someone versus
00:05:50.920 informally.
00:05:51.780 That's true.
00:05:52.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:05:52.640 So there is no way for that in English.
00:05:54.620 So that's what pronoun people are trying to do.
00:05:56.940 That's interesting.
00:05:58.060 Like, the respectful singular third.
00:06:01.020 Exactly.
00:06:01.380 Or plural second.
00:06:02.200 I'm like, Michael, sir.
00:06:03.600 Yes.
00:06:04.300 But pronouns are messed up because it's about third person.
00:06:08.160 You and me are talking about someone who is not even present.
00:06:10.680 That's true.
00:06:11.020 You make a good point.
00:06:12.500 Hey, I've been thinking about this for quite a while.
00:06:15.680 In the informal and the formal you, you make a good point.
00:06:19.380 Well, Donald Trump was the best president we ever had.
00:06:23.060 Ever.
00:06:24.040 Ever.
00:06:24.600 You have to think about, okay, so this is now my answer, right?
00:06:27.020 Yeah, so you pick your host, yes or no, and you put that one down so you can't change
00:06:31.420 your answer.
00:06:31.760 Okay, okay, so hold on.
00:06:32.840 So here we go.
00:06:33.260 Host.
00:06:39.280 Okay.
00:06:43.560 The real debate is Trump or Washington, right?
00:06:46.940 I mean, that's...
00:06:48.380 Okay, well, then I'm saying yes.
00:06:51.240 Well, I know you just met me and I'm marrying a make-a-Bitcoin-great-again hat.
00:06:55.840 But I'm going to have to say no, because...
00:06:59.280 I was judging your facial.
00:07:00.760 It made it seem like...
00:07:01.920 I get it.
00:07:02.480 I get it.
00:07:02.920 I get it.
00:07:03.280 Well, look, I mean, Teddy Roosevelt, I think, would be the best.
00:07:07.380 He was clearly a Bitcoiner.
00:07:08.880 He just didn't know it yet.
00:07:10.220 And the only reason no is because I'm looking forward to Donald Trump's presidency this time
00:07:14.600 around when he's supportive of Bitcoin.
00:07:16.080 So $45, not the best.
00:07:18.940 I'm looking forward to $47.
00:07:20.380 $47 could be the best one.
00:07:21.640 The upgrade.
00:07:21.740 The upgrade, Donald Trump.
00:07:22.280 Wow.
00:07:22.520 That's what I'm going to give.
00:07:23.760 Okay.
00:07:24.000 The problems all started when women were allowed to vote.
00:07:30.400 Okay.
00:07:30.760 Now, your answer, you've got to put your answer down.
00:07:32.760 I have to guess what you would say.
00:07:33.920 My answer.
00:07:34.980 I'm going to say you would say no.
00:07:37.780 Correct.
00:07:38.340 It's no.
00:07:38.940 Yes, it's no.
00:07:39.360 It all started either with the French Revolution.
00:07:42.660 Some would say in the 16th century.
00:07:43.800 I think it was King John with the MAGA Carter.
00:07:47.620 Yeah.
00:07:47.920 He should have just let himself run the whole thing and screwed all the lords.
00:07:52.760 Don't you think?
00:07:54.340 I mean, that's you got me.
00:07:55.180 I mean, yeah.
00:07:55.960 At least if you're going to go back before the glorious revolution.
00:07:59.000 Yes.
00:07:59.180 You guys are post-constitutional.
00:08:00.640 I know you people.
00:08:01.700 A hot dog is a sandwich.
00:08:03.840 This is a much more complicated question than, you know, Bitcoin or the Federal Reserve.
00:08:08.920 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:08:09.420 A hot dog is a sandwich.
00:08:10.800 Right.
00:08:10.900 My answer.
00:08:15.260 How do you think I would answer that?
00:08:19.020 Yes.
00:08:23.800 All right.
00:08:24.360 Spot on.
00:08:24.920 Yeah.
00:08:25.020 See, this.
00:08:26.040 Wow.
00:08:26.500 I've never believed in crypto more than I believe.
00:08:28.840 Because if you are perspicacious enough to understand the nuances of the is a hot dog a sandwich question.
00:08:34.800 I can definitely understand that.
00:08:35.980 Then you might be right on crypto.
00:08:38.900 Russell, thank you, sir.
00:08:39.980 Thank you.
00:08:40.360 Pleasure to sit down.
00:08:41.100 Hey, do you own any Bitcoin yet or what?
00:08:42.620 I wish.
00:08:43.580 I wish I bought Bitcoin 10 years ago.
00:08:45.320 I don't own any.
00:08:46.040 All right.
