The future is female, Jesse. Now little girls can suddenly aspire to be the next Copernicus, Galileo, and Einstein. Without those ladies, without Katy Perry, they would have been locked out of astrophysics. But now they can dare to dream.

00:00:00.720 Evolutionary Behavioral Scientist and Northwood University Global Ambassador, Gad Saad, is here.
00:00:07.040 They say mission accomplished. What was the mission?
00:00:11.940 Hashtag the future is female, Jesse. 1.00
00:00:15.480 Now little girls can suddenly aspire to be the next Copernicus, Galileo, and Einstein. 0.95
00:00:22.100 Without those ladies, without Katy Perry, they would have been locked out of astrophysics, 1.00
00:00:26.500 but now they can dare to dream.
00:00:28.120 But in all seriousness, this type of lavish, conspicuous spending is something that we've seen since time immemorial, right?
00:00:37.320 The Romans used to have lavish banquets and feasts while the peasants were starving, right?
00:00:45.420 A billionaire spent hundreds of millions of dollars on a painting that a three-day-old pigeon could do,
00:00:52.020 but look how powerful I must be to be able to waste $150 million on a painting that's just made up of one red line.
00:01:00.800 So I think this probably falls within that conspicuous pattern of spending.
00:01:05.160 So this is about Bezos. Look what I can do with my rockets. I'm giving the ladies a little ride. And look at me now. 1.00
00:01:14.940 Look at that big, phallic-shaped rocket. I must be top dog. I must be very wealthy to be able to afford this space tourism.
00:01:25.500 It's all costly signaling, Jesse. I covered this in all of my books.
00:01:30.380 Okay. And women are jealous. You heard that one woman on the morning show, she was angry that they went on the joyride. 1.00
00:01:40.640 Right. You shouldn't call it joyride. You should call them astronauts just for being on the joyride.
00:01:45.640 So, for example, when I go to watch Mike Tyson in a boxing match, I become a world heavyweight contender because I was there in the arena.
00:01:55.100 All right. Very interesting. We'll see what Elon does next. You know, boys will be boys.
00:02:01.500 Good to see you, Professor.
00:02:03.220 Cheers.
