Right people would ask us for advice. Yeah, probably like like is this the right spray for me? Isn't it amazing? It's amazing. Like what is the purpose of a lab coat? Like why this particular coat? What is this? Does this provide any protection? Is it? You want monkey blood on your good shirt You gotta like wear the lab coat cuz like you get blood Right in the late 19th and 20th early 20th centuries when many scientific breakthroughs happened The white lab coat started to symbolize cleanliness and scientific rigor Not only it made doctors and scientists easily distinguishable, but it also made spotting any contamination easier That makes sense. Was that a problem back then mixing up your doctor with your scientist? Is that a real problem? Was that what they're saying? It says it makes doctors and scientists more easily to oh together. Yeah, both were not like costumes like Doctor right you go to a doctor doctor help me. I'm not that kind of doctor. I'm a PhD. I study nuclear atoms, I like that that acknowledges that this is a kind of Ceremonial outfit it's a pretty slow because it's like symbolic more than practical for some people Well, there's a bunch of those right like the judges robe My god, how weird is that because if you had a guy who's dressed like in a golf shirt? With like shorts on yeah in a pair of nikes and he's like ruined judgment on things He'd be like fuck that guy. Who's that guy? Yeah, he's a regular guy Dude is dressed like Joe dirt also the hammer Yeah, they bang the hammer to like signify that justice has been served. What a weird trick That is a we I mean, this is when you realize how all of society has got a Cult aspects to it. Like those are people in ceremonial. Yes. Yeah banging a ceremonial Hammer if not a cult definitely cult Well, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's like yeah. Yeah. What is it? What's the the root of cult and occult like what is the the The connection to those toes those two words the devil Satan Satan There's a gotta be some kind of connection, right The fascinating thing about cults is that when they get to a certain size we stop calling them cults Yeah Like they're really successful The idea is that there's no such thing as a successful cult and that's really just not true Okay, the words cult and occult are popular terms that should not be confused as one another So what are the differences between them cult? No, the term cult typically is used by the secular media to describe religious or semi religious groups whose members are Controlled in almost every single respect by a single individual. Huh? Some good examples are hard Christians and Scientologists, but that's not like a single individual. I don't think that's a good definition You know I'm saying By a single individual that's not I think that is a group. That's the classic I mean that right, but they're saying Scientology Scientology clearly has an organization. I Mean, there's one guy that's the head of Scientology, but they have like a whole they're very it's a very complex organization Well, I mean I think the idea is that the so that the main cult leader generally has like the doctrine deputies around them Okay, you know he has his own sort of close inner circle Right in that case is true The bigger it gets in the deputies have deputies or whatever you want to call it and then and that's how you get a big functional cult right right, you know and and I think probably I mean it would be safe to say that a Successful cult Passes that barrier between what what the fuck you guys believe that shit to what the fuck you don't believe that shit like your cult doctrine becomes the Like language of truth yeah, and then you've succeeded like then your cult way That's like the the that you're one in a hundred million. Maybe most cults just fail. I imagine yeah But that seems to be just a natural pattern for for human thinking and behaving that we For whatever reason like naturally fall into groupthink. Oh, yeah, and if we're led by a very strong Charismatic person that we think is exceptional. We'll accept it. Yeah, right like you and and I You know we've talked about this I didn't see the function in that like if you like if you're in a situation That you don't know how to handle you want the person who's the best at handling the situation to say here's what we do Yeah, and then that's great then that's when it works right, but it should only be it should be situational Right it shouldn't be like you know everything right. That's where it turns into a cult Well, that's like that that what is that term that some people that are really smart Tend to believe they're really smart at other things because they're really smart at one thing They'll get a distort. It's a very common term. I know what you're saying It's at the tip of my tongue distortion But it's a thing that happens to you when you're really good at one thing where you think you're just exceptional period All right, and you think you know more about me, you know, like there's scientists that are really terrible about health They're probably brilliant when it comes to certain aspects of whatever it is. They study string theory Yeah, sure there their their knowledge of health their knowledge of how to work Like I've talked to scientists like I don't think vitamins are important. What the fuck are you saying? Don't prove your effect. Thank you the smart it It says the smart you feel the dumber you are The dumb people think they are smart and the smart people think they're dumb If you're like most people you likely be very good at something and you openly admit you're less competent at something else However, we've all met someone in our work and life who always overestimates their knowledge or ability of a certain topic or skill where some people are obviously Incompetent in a particular subject you like confidently insist they know everything That's when you start to wonder how on earth could this person be that well stupid in fact This is not uncommon even William Shakespeare mentioned it 400 plus years ago The fool thinks himself to be wise while a wise man knows himself to be a fool today This phenomena is known as cognitive bias of a losing their superiority so But it but it does have something to do with you being good at Something and being really stupid at other things because you think you're smart. What a great insult to tell someone That they have done in Kruger. Yeah, that is a great way to call someone dumb Yeah, what's it's interesting because that's what this is the problem with the term dumb Really what it is is what are you focusing on? Because there's very intelligent people that didn't focus on Communication, right? They didn't focus on language. They didn't focus on proper grammar or how to structure good sentence They focused on a particular act whether it's swimming or whether it's chess or whether they focused on a Whether it's playing guitar playing pool. I've met brilliant people playing pool, right? I never told you about my friend Johnny Who could do complex math in his head? Yeah I mean not company not complex but math in his head so what you would do you would you would the one guy would have a calculator and we would do this at the pool and Then we would go 300 divided by 5 minus 4 plus 16 times 2 and he would bang. Yeah, he was rattled it out. We would go what the fuck man Yeah, what it what the fuck and he was homeless Did he say how he did the trick? No, he just knew how to do it. Holy he could just count dude. He was just Insanely smart but that implied like that's there was a kid in my neighborhood who could do that and It was the like he was annoyed because once you are known as being able to do that That's all people do they don't want to talk to you they just want to get you to solve complex math and then go like holy fuck but How like it makes me think that like they're perceiving reality in a completely different I must be they must be they have to be they must be This guy Johnny who he had a lot of mental health problems like serious mental health problems and drug problems But he was one of the most brilliant people I've ever met and socially brilliant. You know, he's a pool hustler Yeah, but he's very socially brilliant like he knew when people were full of shit Yeah, he knew and when people's egos were flaring up He knew like and he loved comedy. It was like his favorite thing and so I met him at the pool hall and I took him to see comedy and You know took him to one of my shows and he fucking loved and he's like, oh I love when they call people out on their bullshit like it was like he was like a social scientist Yeah, but also could play all these different musical instruments Homeless Homeless I met a kid who was 16 years old and he was a chess wizard who like wanted to hang out with the bad boys It was really interesting because he was like this super nerd that all of a sudden he was hanging out with these guys who were smoking and gambling and he was 16 and it's like really rough pool hall and he would sit down with this guy who just Got out of jail and this guy had just got out of jail and in jail It learned how to play chess in his head so they don't have a board So because they don't have a board they have to call out the numbers in their head. So I'm watching this Recently released prisoner and a 16 year old super nerd play chess in their head and they're calling it out I'm sitting there like this like I'm watching them do magic. What? Yeah, so like c to 4th Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep, and they're keeping track of the whole table in their head. You just see it in their head Uh-huh, and there was no arguments by the way It's just you know you hear about you know, I think we talked about it the mothership the other night but you you hear about people who perceive numbers as Colors or something or is in it's like their brain has made a different connection because because if you think about What our eyes do with photons that's insane that instantaneously it forms Time-space around you with like zero effort like it's interpreting all this data Color wavelengths all that shit. It's crazy. Yeah, graphine color, synthia So I want to show you people playing chess in their head because it's crazy But what I was saying, there's no arguments like they never said no, no, no, I had this that there there was none of that Right, they knew exact they both knew exactly where everything was and they were like check Check, they're seeing the table in there. Yeah, it's like they're going to visual It's like they're just seeing it and so and they're keeping track of all their pieces and all their opponent's pieces. Yeah Yeah, man, I mean That's why you'll watch them do it. It's it's really interesting to see do you have that it's called blindfolded chess Okay, it's a skill apparently this video much. I'm looking at oh, it's got to be a skill videos of people teaching you how to do it Oh, wow But I'm trying to this is just like people talking about it about is trying to find a Like a game, I guess it's not showing two people though. It's not it's kind of hard to watch Is there one that says how to two people playing blindfolded chess? I figured something would pop up by playing chess Is that it mate? No Yeah, right chess is head to head to head mental combat that's just a different kind of chess So that's what I thought this what is it called again? This is something else What how do they what do they call blindfolded chess? How about just type in two people playing blindfolded chess? chess There it is blindfolded chess, it's just one guy Hmm What while he's adding an exercise bike, oh my god, that's so insane same time oh My god, that is so insane What video 80% win, right? Can you imagine getting beaten that He says he developed a technique of a memory palace, oh my god That is used by memory competitors usually to remember things like numbers or the order of playing cards He said each game is like a room in a palace. Yeah, it's all there. He explained the chess comm I walk into my kitchen to see that stack of bananas the abstract images are an analog for specific moves So presumably he now knows a lot of different fruits Wow That is so insane that memory palace shit is really interesting because you're like you're connecting your memory to the visuals. Yeah So I can go back to the beginning and you can go through each I wouldn't I wonder if that I mean This is essentially a short-term memory thing. You're relying upon. I wonder if that Wonder if that does anything for your long-term memory, too I wonder if check could they do say that chess is like one of the very best games For just just just your cognitive function makes sense. Yeah super complex Yeah, I mean think of it's basically like running with your brain. Yeah, right. Did you ever get into it? No It's it's pretty I I only got into it because I had a cool video game where the chess pieces could fight And so that made me like get interested in like the most surface level I mean I was horrible, but you know the opening moves and how each opening move There's statistically I think the right opening or second move to do against the opening move and then you all these Combos and shit that you have to memorize It's so and then you have to think so many moves ahead So the based on all the possible things they might do Yeah producing all these parallel chess timelines and you're trying to pick the one that's like the one you win in Chess falls into that whole golf thing with me. I'm sure I'd love it Yeah, but I don't want to do that. I don't have any time for anything new like that. I already have a problem with pool You know, I I fucking want to play it all the time. Yeah. Well, I mean it's a lot easier to for me to like Level up in Diablo Then go to the gym, right infinitely easier And my brain does not produce the same level of pleasure leaving the gym. But what is it like? 30% of that and I think Sometimes if you are particularly weak, you'll just settle for that. You're like, you know what? That's fine I'll enjoy that and then it just goes on and on, you know You need to have undisciplined people on your show sometimes because I'm always struggling with it You know what I mean? And you're like discipline you but I'm I am like It's an aspiration and so I'll get going to the gym. I'll start working out I'll feel better than I've ever felt my life. You know, what got me to the gym, by the way I started going the last podcast you described how you feel Not working out and I'm like that's the last two years of my life Men you know, so I'm like fuck I got to do this and like, you know walking out It's simultaneously wonderful and kind of sad because you walk out and you're like I feel so good Like this is all I I just had to do this. Yeah, it's wasn't painful. It's fun Yeah, and now I feel great and you're like fuck man two years Two years I went off of it. That's scary when you're you know, I mean when you when you're oscillating between those two modes, you know and you don't want to get stuck in the devil's mode, but you You know, it's a possibility, you know you somehow glued yourself to that this one like you you don't seem to really like fall off You know Did you at first? No it's necessary for me and It's necessary for me for mental health and also I'm not I don't want my body to fail Like I don't I've seen people my age. Yeah that don't exercise and their Shoulders don't work and their knees are fucked and they're always tired And yeah Like that's not a good way to go through life if you want to enjoy life you want to have as much energy as possible And the best way to have as much energy as possible is to be really fit Be really fit and healthy and eat good foods and take a lot of vitamins Take supplements take, you know eat healthy food. Try to stay the fuck away from processed garbage. Don't drink too much Right don't don't do anything bad for your health because your your your energy Depends upon this physical form and it's literally made out of what you put in it Yeah, it's literally made out of that both with effort and with food, right and with sleep Yeah, the effort that you take to sleep, right? And then also the effort you take to have a stress-free environment, you know the the effort that you take to put out is as little bullshit as you can and to like Be nice to people as often as you can and just sort of keep harmonious fun people around you Yes, you you feel better Yeah You know like when if I'm going through something like some friends of mines are squabbling and I have to like Get in between them and have conversations. I fucking hate it. I Hate it worse. I hate when people's feelings are heard. I hate when people are mad at other people I fucking hate it and I think a lot of times it can be avoided But if you could if you're not avoiding it and you're just jumping in it all the time Yeah, your stress levels are so high your comfort levels are so low You're always gonna be feeling like shit and there's people that get caught up in a cycle of that They're always calling people out and getting called out and insult and trying to find the deepest burn and Keep that shit out of your life to keep that shit out of your life but you don't don't not call things out when some things atrocious right, but but just The less bullshit you have in your life whether it's bullshit that you have to deal with because you didn't exercise where your body's breaking down It's like car maintenance Like if you just don't ever change your oil, right? You could go a long time I did I dated this girl once when I was 22 and She told me she had never changed the oil in her car. I go. How long have you had this car? She started the car it was like Literal black smoke was coming out of the back. We shit She had a firebird and I was like you've never changed your oil She never changed oil, but your car was still driving. That's a lot of humans bodies It's the same thing. It's just it's very similar. You're not doing the maintenance, right? Yeah, man it is It's interesting like you just described like two parallel universes that exist side by side like and if I had a bet there are more people in the in the Coordinate that what you'd say in the in the in a harmonious Reality, then the harmonious one. I think that that probably I mean I it's cynical to say but probably what like 70% of people to some degree are Stuck in the gravity. Well of whatever those things. It's a gravity. Well, that's not because that's the thing man, you know Climbing out of that fucking hole is the hardest part But that hole has its own gravity and the gravity is around addiction to just the stuff you're describing. You're addicted to drama You're addicted to eating shitty food. You're addicted to like staying up late and doom scrolling or whatever It's it's a gravity and so then you got to crawl out of it to get into that other place Yeah, and you get in that other place and generally the first thing you think is God, this is incredible but then The more you stay in that place You kind of forget how bad it felt in the other place Mm-hmm, and that's where the pattern can like you get sucked back into the gravity. Well, you don't like stay Steady in the discipline. Yeah, I think that's a lot of people like that Is it it's more people than not because our natural human instincts are to you know, right? It's like to squabble. Yeah, there's natural squabble. Yeah built into people But it's a pattern of Behavior, it's a pattern of thinking You can recognize that it's a dangerous pattern or a shitty pattern or an unproductive pattern in overall a negative pattern Yeah, just just get it out of there. Yeah, don't you can do that. I've done it You can do it people can do it. You gotta learn what it is. You gotta admit Your own aggression. Yes, because if you don't then you trick yourself as You engage in some conversation. Yeah into thinking that there is an aggression behind it And you know, I don't know if you can get rid of all aggression and confrontation like I don't know if it's possible to fully drop it imagine, but you know Listening to other people too. Like I try I have to do that if you like you you You were being short, you know or you were whatever it's like you gotta listen think right even though I don't think I was right your our vault your volume might be different or something We were having a conversation about this last night in the green room, too It's like the way we talked to each other as comics like, you know Everyone had a story of how they talked to their wife or their spouse like a comic once You know, like what the fuck did you think was gonna happen? You know where like the way you would say something to me like if I did something really stupid You're like what the fuck did you think was gonna happen and I would start laughing? Yeah But you can't make those kind of jokes sometimes with regular people Like regular people where you were insult like you could say like the most heinous Joke to Tony Hinchcliffe and he would fall on the ground laughing holding his side Yes, you could say terrible things about him and connecting him to Joffrey from Game of Thrones and he'll be on the ground laughing Right, but if you do that to just a regular guy that you work with it's very likely he's gonna be severely upset Oh, very butt-hurt and we are so used to talking to each other like that, dude I've made like permanent. I don't want to say enemies but I know there's people who like won't talk won't talk to me now because I forgot that and just You know, I just thought of habit. Yeah, just you interact with them And you can't you can't do that. No, you can't I just put I just Put a tear eye drops in my eyes. So my face was wet as though from tears Walked out in the living room and told our midwife that Obama had died like and Thank God. She has she laughed since a humor, but then suddenly I was like, what the fuck am I doing? My wife is looking me like what are you doing? It's a midwife You're coming out here with fake deer saying Obama Obama died That's fucked up everyone like went. Oh What because you know, it's would be so upsetting but like and then I realized what am I doing? What am I doing you're doing what you would do in the green room You're always doing that When you say something me there's always like this. What's I know you should do it. You should definitely meet them Wow, remember that last night Me too. Me too. You were trying to convince me. I can't even say it because I don't have to admit what we were talking about Yeah, right. You know what? Yes, exactly that is that with comedians. Yeah, we will shift from reality Yeah, just like making up a story that with each other instantly It's such a fascinating mode of communication and it's definitely not normal My favorite is when someone does it but with like subtle propaganda Like real on the edge like is he fucking? No worries Wait, hold on. God damn it Sorry about that man, dude. It's a normal thing Happens all the time. Let me just check, you know, yeah, you're about to have a baby While we're doing this okay great now to have one more human. That's right I'm very excited about it, but I I'm so sorry that my phone off you normally would ignore it. No, no, I know I'm get it Please continue to remember what you're saying. Oh To me Like this once you start applying this to everybody and you realize like a lot of times we're like using a mode of communication Based on our experience with our particular job or business or whatever and trying to get other people Or or even you're the way you were raised, right? This is you learn this mode of communication Potentially from lunatics like you can't choose where you're born. That's very true. And then those people enter into conversations thinking that everyone else understands They're what it's like to come out of that kind of universe man, and then you're like you're an asshole No, you're an asshole and it's like no neither of your assholes. You're just yeah applying You're trying to get people into your reality tunnel instead of at least like finding the middle point between yours and theirs It's the worst especially but like it's one thing if you're having some argument with some stranger But especially when it's like a good friend Joe, I remember what you're saying. What was I saying? You're saying when people have an agenda like when you're in a conversation with somebody like that and you Detect some kind of slight agenda in there somewhere. Oh, I was saying you the some of your best fake Arguments about things you get real subtle with it or I'm like whiz What is he serious? Like is it right and then you'll slowly? right Slowly enter into the preposterous. I got you. I got you. Yeah that oh, yeah So if you're doing that with like normal people it would take a long time for them to figure out what the fuck you're doing And then when they do they're like why? Why did you do that? Then they could never send them they would never trust you again Told me his Sister was eaten by a bear last week. What do you know what? I'm realizing there's a there's another Layer of comedy. There's another layer of comedy. It's green room comedy, right? Green room comedy is some of my favorite comedy the best some of my favorite comedy. We were crying Hiding last night. Yeah crying. Yeah every night and it's cool because it's got this rhythm to it. Yeah, sometimes it gets quiet Start up again, it's so cool man. Yeah, it's a really interesting thing It's that two shows two shows a night is goddamn magic because you get so loose Yes, it's so loose and so silly. Yeah, man. I didn't yeah like the times I've stayed I have to I leave her because You're about to have a baby man that baby, but the the times I've stayed Especially super late. It's really fun. And so I think the other thing is cool about it, man Is uh, I feel like everyone is acknowledging how special it is Like nobody's taking it for granted. Everybody's like are you kidding like yeah, we're do this is right possibility This is happening. Yeah, isn't it crazy that it was an idea and now it's a real thing. Yes was an idea Now it's a real thing That's the I had the wildest idea about ideas once that what if ideas are a life form and the way they manifest in reality is they get into a person's brain and then Influence that person to take action to create them the same way Like a parasite will get into a grasshopper's brain Yeah, like a water like those aquatic worms and they convince the grasshopper to commit suicide so that they could be born like weird shit Happens with parasites. What if ideas are a life form? There's everything that exists that human beings have created just think about the fucking immense amount of objects that we've created All of them came from ideas. Yeah, all of them And we think of this is my idea I had this idea but we both know that ideas are very strange They they come to you in the weirdest of ways. It's the reason why people believe in the muse It's the reason why press fields book the war of art is so good. Yeah, because when he documents this sort of Journey that he goes on every day when he writes where he summons the muse Yeah, he does it like and he is in my his mind. No, it's a real thing and then starts to write and And and treats it like a ritual. Yeah, you're gonna be there all the time. What is happening there? Like what what do you summoning when you get these ideas whether it's summoning something? That's a creative work like literature or whether it's the invention that Changes society forever right like all of them came from ideas Yeah, and a lot of them like a lot of like the great ideas like Tesla He just openly admits it came to an a vision. Yeah, he saw it like he doesn't even ascribe it to his own mind It was like a vision. Don't you feel that way about some of your best jokes? That's just pop in your head. Yeah, but you know, what's you know, it's weird about Tesla and I'm sorry you guys if I'm wrong about this, but I I read it was blown away I think it was on his Wikipedia, but I could be wrong Apparently he was thinking about Faust when he had the vision now I hope I'm not wrong about that you guys Jamie Jamie would you mind? I'm sorry, dude I could be wrong and I I'm sorry all if I am but the yeah, so Faust is about you know an alchemist he makes the Yeah How poetry inspired Tesla to design one of his most important inventions? What's There it is Faust. Yeah one of the lesser facts Known one of the lesser known facts about Tesla's that he was also a great fan of poetry And it was an expert of Gerta Gerta Gerta Faust Gerta Faust that inspired him to finalize his invention of The alternating current motor the term world-changing invention certainly applies this innovation So what inspired that was a poem? I thought was a play a poem about an Alchemist selling a soul of the devil so all of modern technology Originated from the inspiration that he derived from a poem about a satanic bargain Isn't that wild when Faustian bargain the Faustian bargain was the According to the person who invented it was the inspiration yeah for technology that we are still Like using today like yeah, so that so then you think then you go back and you think well What what inspired Gerta you know and then you realize it's like this crazy Wave of like it ripples through time like you somebody gets a great inspir gets inspired writes it down. It's beautiful. I Don't know how long passed between when he wrote that and Tesla had his vision, but certainly obviously Gerta probably had no idea that when he Spent the time writing that thing and trusted to write it down He was gonna warp the entire planet his poem was gonna ripple out and warp the entire planet Just from a poem that's wild man Isn't that crazy is that nuts especially I mean it's so meta you weren't wrong it is a play, but it's written in verse Gotcha Wow 1808 1808 someone writes a cool poem about selling your soul the devil Cut to now there's self-driving cars oh My god Ideas are string I mean Even back to the club the idea of the club You know yeah when we were all talking about doing it These ideas were just like yeah, and then we could do this and then we could do that Yeah, should we have this should we have that yeah? And we we spent a fucking year and a half of doing this it was a long process before it actually got built Well, that's the problem With ideas it's like they mimic and I'm not just saying this cuz my wife's pregnant They mimic childbirth in the sense that there's some kind of gestation period that's there's the in you're inseminated with your inspiration Yeah, then you got to start growing it and then the phases of growing it or can be like really torturous and long and like Somewhere in there you're like this sucks This is really the dumbest thing of all time and then you keep working on it and maybe you realize that's true or You find the you fix it so you know But that you know that is why so many people I think are like letting inspiration come all over their face What's it's I always tell people that the way I try to think about things is Bandwidth I try to think about I pretend there's a number let's say that number is a hundred I have 100 Band one one hundred units that I have for my information for what I'm allowed to think about That what I can use my brain for Anytime I put stuff in there. That's nonsense anytime I put stuff in there that's that's negative or unproductive or At least unless it's funny. Yeah, anytime I'm putting stuff in there That's taking away from all my other stuff And one thing that people need to understand is that one of the things your brain will do to protect yourself from Whether it's the pressure of success or succeeding or accomplishing things your brain will When you're presented with the stress of trying to accomplish something it will put extra emphasis on all these stupid things in your life to distract yes, and it almost like protects you from the stress of having to do the work and You see people sabotage their lives Sabotage their careers to see it happen to artists musicians fighters comedians It's a normal thing that we do just as as human beings you you get freaked out by what you know You should do so you spend more time paying attention to the things that you shouldn't do Yeah, man, it's help sabotage self-sabotage and very real very real and and Based at least my own assessment of it. It's based on the delusion that The feeling of procrastination is less painful than the feeling of doing your work And it couldn't it's the opposite like procrastination you Spread it out across your life like your weeks. You just spread this nice shitty coating of procrastination mild anxiety General like sense of like I'm a piece of shit because you're not doing it and then When you finally get around to doing it you realize the thing you didn't want to do is so fun most of the time most engaging Interesting but if nothing else you feel so much better because you're finally taking care of it Yeah, and you realize all that anxiety all that if you if you somehow could quantify The amount of anxiety you're gonna feel procrastinating versus the amount of anxiety you're gonna feel doing something You know what I mean? It's exponentially more anxiety from procrastinating Yeah, so the so the logic's all wrong. It's a fucked up way of dealing with a problem is a master procrastinator You know, I feel like I can talk about this because like having identified It's always always feels better when you do it. Mm-hmm always then you keep your brain will Orient I think in a more healthy way. I hope mine does eventually No, it I think also Duncan, you know You're you're so busy and you're so busy with your family and you're so busy with your podcast You're so busy with your comedy tour. It's like yeah It's very hard to allocate time to do stuff And one of the ways I have it easy is I have a gym right here. Yeah gym at home I make it easy so I do it right and I just I have to do it if I don't do it I don't feel good. I don't think good. I don't act good. Right? It's better for me It's medicine. And so I take my medicine and then I'm he and then I'm happy Joe. Hello. Yeah, everybody's friend I want to give everybody hugs right? I want to be nice I want to see everybody succeed and grow and I'm not in my own head, right? I'm free Right. So I have to be free. I had that and for me I feel like the human body Especially when you've put a lot of demand on that body over a long period of time like I have it has requirements Yeah, it's like a dog, you know when you have a dog One of the things that I do with my dog is I exercise that dude. I Throw the ball for him. Yeah, play with them. We jump in the water and swim together Dogs need exercise right they need it. It's like of and when he gets it He's like chill and relaxed and we doesn't he's like a little antsy, you know Yeah, you could tell like he's a little down right he wants to exercise. He's a dog. We yeah, it's fun He likes chasing that fucking ball. Let's go right get so excited. I always feel like I'm boring him I'm like the ball again. He's like fuck. Yeah the ball again. Let's go. Yeah, it's never not fun for him yeah, and so That's his medicine and when he gets his medicine, he's a happier dog, right? That's my medicine. Yeah, it's just a thing you have to do to maintain your body at the best form Yeah, if you maintain your body the best form you have the most energy If the most energy for thinking you have the most energy for activities You have the most energy for anything physical that comes up, you know, I I'd like being strong. I think it's important I think if I could give it was an option in pill form like could you Would you take this pill? There's no side effects other than your health will improve and you'll be much stronger Would you take everybody's gonna take it sure everybody would take it. Well that that exists. It's just not a pill You just have to exercise for long periods of time, you know and be very consistent. You made me picture in my head How fucked up will be to come home? Your dog is laying in bed playing video games With like some Kleenex on the floor next to it I Would take them to the fat like immediately you would take them to the no I'd be like how long you've been doing this man You could play video games. Can you talk? That's what I'd say. Do you remember my bit? Do you remember my bed about the talking dog? You can talk you can play video games we're gonna be rich Fuck man, she wouldn't get high anymore. Oh Man, yeah, if your dog was playing video games would be the coolest thing ever you go play video games with your dog What if he's good society would collapse like that would be the end of society. No one is fucking anymore Like it does they would with their dogs just get a dog. That's gonna be a real problem Sometimes soon anyway, this is gonna be they're gonna invent something that allows you to orgasm with your mind There's gonna be some Neuralink type deal where once they tap into the functions of the mind and start expanding the the abilities of these Neuralink can we not it's gonna be nuts and they're gonna they're gonna figure out a way to reproduce more effectively with less errors without biological sex and Since gender is just a construct anyway Everyone's just gonna slowly eat plastic until your dick shrinks and we're all gonna become aliens You know man before we become aliens Which I honestly I buy into that idea But before we become aliens all the weird shit in between us becoming aliens That's the part that like what the neuralink stuff. Yeah the inevitable whatever the brain interface shows up as the Inevitable day that someone hacks into whatever the server is that's dishing out Feelings or whatever it is to people it does there will be like an orgasm wave because someone's gonna hack it Someone's gonna simultaneously give like an incredibly powerful orgasm to everyone on the planet and you'll just watch it Around you as people like come super hard because everyone's neuralink act Yeah, that's gonna happen or whatever whatever man or something more sinister something something I don't think if I was an evil dictator, I'd make everybody come. Yeah, but if you're a troll you would A orgasm wave yeah, you'd watch like the president they time it with the president's speech And you see what Biden looks like when he comes probably starts yelling Yeah, I mean that's the I love that part of society is interesting though how There is a subconscious to society like yeah that within society. There's the Self that people present and then underneath it. There's all the shit Nobody sees all the shit that people do behind closed doors all the shit that isn't that person they put out front yeah, and you know the bigger the Tension between those two things is the the worst your life is gonna be but the yeah, man It's just weird to think about that like no matter what no matter how professional person presents us no matter how like They've got it together. They seem to have it together. You don't know. Yeah, you never Spaghetti baths they could go home and just cover themselves and spaghetti and and and cry a lot of crying Yeah, so that to me is interesting like within Society is a whole hidden realm and specifically as far as I'm aware No one has seen a president come in the public like it's more secret than aliens like there's no video of a president coming There isn't that I'm aware of We will never know you don't think on Epstein's Island there's videos Presidents coming like you have play them like over and over Well, do you why do you think Epstein had that giant painting of Bill Clinton in a dress in his foyer? Dude, do you know that picture? Yeah painting Epstein's taste in art was not great Like if you look at the show that was great that that painting is like I gotcha bitch That's what that is. Oh, you got a president who was on the flight logs 26 times With Epstein and you got that guy in a fucking dress in your house. Okay, I'm dumb. I'm sorry, dude I'm officially dumb because I've known about that picture and I've just been like why would anybody want? That is I got you bitch. That's just still like hey. Yeah, that's I got you bitch That is terrifying that's terrifying You imagine if I knew some horrible dark secrets about you and you came over my house and I have a giant painting of you Right when you walk into the front door. Yeah of you and a dress. Yeah, I'm like, hey buddy. Hi welcome. Yeah You're right. How fucking terrifying that would be. That's terrifying. You know, he knows about it. I Mean you walk right in and bam There's that painting and now you kind of control a president. Holy shit, dude. Holy shit It's well that's not 100% what they were doing One hundred percent what they were doing dude. I just don't even want to think about I don't want to think about all the like Entities will never even know about that ride presidents around like a fucking horse They just gallop around on them just riding around. We got another president. We did it. We last another one we got one and and they that is so Crazy to think about like a president who is being extorted the president United States being extorted. Yeah, and Like what that would feel like to be the president and know that you are no longer actually the president That you are now the like you are just a puppet of some other fucking thing. Oh, dude, I hope that's not I Would I think you're right, but goddamn that sinister. I wish it was just bad taste Just shitty fucking art on your walls No No, you can't shitty art of your friend who you flew with 26 times right Joe I just thought I didn't put it out. I'm dumb. I didn't put it all together. You're right, man No, that is clearly what that is. Yeah, clearly Whoa, it's wild. It's wild. I gotta pee me too. Let's come back Where were we man we you were creeping me out Because you were like there's like you have a talent for creeping me out man, like uh, like when you describe bear attacks, yeah Fucks me up for a while or shark attacks. But yeah, we were talking about uh We're talking about the Epstein Clinton painting and how you know sort of like the implication of anything like that or the reminder of anything like that is because the Our leaders are human and humans are culpable and hackable and it's easier to invade a country or take over a country by just Control the leader you control the country. So there's a clearly a pressure there. There's obviously people who would love to do that and Probably try would try and have probably succeeded a few times meaning that our understanding of democracy as like the president represents the people it's like totally wrong that in fact, it's Potentially someone being controlled by people you'll never meet or maybe never even who existed. Oh Yeah, creepy that can't be true Yeah, creepy that can't be true. Well, it's got to be true because if it was well They would never if you had an enormous organization that controls everything Yeah, troll everything in the country Would you really let a new person just run it every four years? Right in whatever way they like, right? Wouldn't you if you're there forever? You're there forever. You're not there for four years. Yeah, you're running Various agencies and like wouldn't you make sure over time that you secured? Enough control that the president really is just sort of a figurehead Joe I am a doctor and oh, I'm sorry, but it seems like you're in Misinformation not yeah mal information mal information's put the thing up Say this was fact-checked and is wrong because to me it feels like yeah, you're like implying that the president's President of the United States past presidents or controlled by Secret groups or I don't know corporations or something That sounds crazy. Well, it's preposterous It's a democracy with that. It's not even possible. Nobody Nobody on this planet would ever want to control the United States without having to invade it Nobody would ever want to do that or try to do that or succeed in doing that God damn, man, you definitely couldn't do it with money No Presidents don't like money No, they generally shy away from it. Most of them are dead broke even when they're in there in the White House Like you know, like they're like dead fucking broke. That's why Bill Clinton ate McDonald's every day Every day people had a loan of money and shit, dude He would get his car booted and couldn't before to get the boot off Yeah, this is why all of our American politicians are like their poppers when they get out middle income It's isn't a while how much they actually make It's an insane amount of money And you look at how much money they get out after they get out of the White House. Yeah What What are you doing? How'd you make that much money you just got back into business Yeah, you weren't in business at all and jump back into that housekeeping business now you're worth hundreds of millions of dollars That's kind of crazy, you know, just some you know, actually I have a blind investor I have a boy What do they call it where they don't know the investments being made like I just happen to have like a really good business Dude, you like invested the ten thousand dollars I saved up before I became president and it turned into millions the most transparent one is speaking fees Because it's speaking fees are a way that you can give people money You can just give them money and they perform a thing they talk and it can be the most uninspired Nonsense ago horse shit talk. It doesn't matter. They're gonna get a half a million dollars, right? That's right That's just a normal amount of money that you get and then you go here and you make it over there and you go here And you collect from everybody so you have some sort of financial arrangement But that financial arrangement is about speaking fees. See this is what I'm talking about, man This is the liminal or subliminal part of the human Experience what you're talking about right now is upsetting to people But also a lot of people will say don't even talk you're not even supposed to say that Like and and even though it's true like even though it's in plain sight trackable traceable precedent for it in the past not even that like astounding You are supposed to like rest in this strange dream world where? human beings Experiencing some of the most power you can have in the world Don't go a little or totally or completely insane or don't get hijacked or don't get like we're supposed to pretend that doesn't happen Right when you look at the president look like Does Biden seem like he'd be hard to trick Would you even have to trick them though, maybe I mean I think It's so hard to know what goes on behind those closed doors and they're making decisions Don't want to see they made it they sent an extra bill how many billion dollars they accidentally sent to Ukraine 6.2 billion. It was an accident. They accidentally They accidentally sent it. Yeah, six point two more than they were supposed to well They just sent some more that must have been a rough phone call that counting error provides an extra six point two billion for Ukraine military Hey, whoops. Sorry. Hey, what's up? It's Duncan? Look, I can't you know, I kind of fucked up I was a little bit of ketamine when I was doing that you whatever the transaction. So can you send back the 62 billion dollars point to six point two billion dollars actually sent to you Can you just send it back as you think if it's a clerical error, right? Then they're gonna be like, oh shit, you know, I didn't notice the six point two billion dollars going into my account That's how rich I am I'll send but There's so much money because like at some point, you know, it's just I don't even know what it is just billions lots of billions Yeah, it's pretty weird The Pentagon said Tuesday that it overestimated the value of the weapons it sent to Ukraine by six point two billion over the past two years About double early estimates resulting in a surplus that will be used for future security packages Oh, don't worry about it. Just use it for future security packages. It's a security pack. Yeah, it's a surplus What do we know man security packages? We don't know shit and that's just saying we're gonna keep sending money security package It'll just go back into the pot of money that we have that we have allocated It's a big fucking future Pentagon stock drawdowns. We got future Pentagon stock drawdowns. Ew Why does that sound like they're playing a game, you know I'm saying that's like sounds like a game Carlin's got the ultimate bid on it, man, like the evolution of war language, you know, it used to be called shell shocked But then they changed it like it's like the mill the whatever that language is is inevitably Confusing it's confusing and it's also it it has this air of authority to it like the judge wearing the robe Yeah, yeah Yeah, bye. Bye Talking about it that way Stock drawdowns and you know Pentagon's allocated the same money, but in May They found three billion more back then so I don't know if that's ten or if whoops Well their keyboards probably broken like it's a mistake It's a mistake shit like makes mistakes where people but we're all doing the right thing easy to fuck it up, man it's like we got to take it easy on these people and again like You if you even though it is like mainstream news Yeah, that's what I like. That's so brilliant about it. Is that they're just like yeah, you know, it's a pot We had a pot and it goes in the same pot. We do his other stuff and it goes out there everyone sees it Everyone's busy, dude. Yeah, and no one has time to really like start thinking about no 3.2 billion dollars 6.2 6.2 billion dollars that we've all Put into that pot like every single person living in America has put some dollars in that pot and some of those dollars You know bridges are fucking Collapsing, you know, it's it is should be mildly frustrating To people mildly frustrating didn't realize six point two billion dollars of like fireman checks teacher checks nurse checks the frontline workers that's That money is like doesn't that matter enough to for them to like be more careful about it And also when they fuck up like that, where's the apology? You just blew six billion Dollars of tax money and it was a mistake You're not keeping like imagine if your accountant made the same mistake just basic accountant would you Keep that accountant as your accountant and if you did you're a fucking idiot You got to fire that account and get an accountant who doesn't like misplaced So Much money, right? Yeah, and especially if the accountant didn't apologize, which is like, oh right. Well, it's you see We have a different pot where some of your money gets a pot thing allocated. It's allocated. It's Do you know how complex our pot system is you should see it I've got a thousand pots back there varying sizes. They did change according to astrological Shifts don't even worry about it. It's just a pot. I kind of gotta go Come on like it's so frustrating. It's so frustrating. It's very wild dude. Very it's very wild that they just keep printing money Jacking up to inflation printing money. I love that one because Mixed into the printing money thing which obviously have money printers. What's really funny about that is somehow people believe that That money is like doesn't go just right hot off the press to like people in the building Like or that it doesn't like some of that money gets shifted around and like, you know Or some of it is printed and I know I'm sure there's like no there's securities in place. We have securities in place It's numbered. We've got it. Come on right somebody if you have a money printer in America, are you fucking kidding me? If you're the main printer of money in America, like you're the one who like Presses enter on the computer right out two trillion dollars Wow, you're like that's like living next to the Sun That person what does money even mean to you? Must be so weird. This is no weird This these pieces of paper are everything that people are struggling for and you know the smell of it You come to work you come home and you smell like money you smell like the ink they use for money You you have to pour ink into I mean like what are you? What's the income from? And you puts it in and what is like the ink that the pre money ink look like not only that They have to do it in a very complex way. So it can't be easily duplicated I mean just think about how silly it is that paper money Like it's paint. It's kind of paper paper it that You can't do became like no one can duplicate that like you have to make it so complex that I can't be Counterfeit and change it up. Yeah, but they have like little things in them You're like like you look at it a certain way with like yeah, I've seen it I mean it's gotten increasingly like you know you talk about the I love it that race the evolutionary race like every time Like gazelle has to get a little bit faster and then if it's getting faster The predator has to increase its speed and so there's like evolutionary pressure to like keep things going faster Same with counterfeit right? It's got to be like so they're like, okay. We saw the problem we put a like triple hologram Underneath that is it would require 700 micro sheets of paper to duplicate Somebody's looking at that and being like how much money would it cost to duplicate that and they're like Oh probably a million dollars, and they're like great. Well pay for it with the money we print We'll take the loan print the money and pay for it and then they're like fuck they figured our duplication technique and then Our hologram technique and then they're like fuck we got to put something else in there, and then it's just a never-ending I imagine like how long before we're a cashless society Hopefully forever dude. I hope I hope forever. I hope we know like it is so scary to imagine The like losing the privacy Losing it all completely because every transaction is in the public eye or observable. That's really scary man I mean, it's like I don't even do anything interesting with my money like except like Tip on the road like you know I use my card, and I know that's the argument is that's traceable I realize that but it's scary because it there's an option you want to just like blow some cash on something you can't It did you could just like no one will know it's deep whatever it is right not that I would ever use cash for anything other than legal purposes. It's just like Yeah, I mean like the like one day in the future everything will be traceable That's right, and that's you know this is where I get this is where being raised in Episcopalian In the book of Revelation is gonna. It was a Christian. You're gonna read it This is where I get scared because it's too similar to the mark of the beast It's too similar to exactly what it says you won't be able to trade you won't be able to do anything Unless you have the mark unless you bear the mark So what is that that that in that term and the house that describe? How's the mark of the beast described in the Bible? We should read it because I think you're onto something. We're now officially podcasting This is fucking it. We're opening up the book of Revelation Yeah Yeah the mark of the beast it's like you can't do anything you can't sell you can't if you don't take the mark you're fucked I Mean that's that's that like if you remove The ability to trade currency in a private way yeah, you now can you you are now controlled you are now monitored That's like or Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth it had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast Whose mortal wound was healed it performs great signs even making fire come down from the heaven to earth in front of people and By the signs that it allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth Telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast So that the image of the beast might even speak and I'd be tea caused those Who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain? It also causes all both small and great both rich and poor both free and slave to be marked on the right hand Or the forehead so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark That is the name of the beast or the number of its name this calls for wisdom let the one who is understanding calculate the number of the beast for it is the number of A man and his number is 666 You Don't so wild about that stuff reading that is It's really clear that they spoke differently Yeah, and also really clear that you're getting a translation from another language Well, this is the best version of the English translation. They should they could give us It gets weirder when you get to the original like when you get to the original Because like, you know one of the reasons that seems weird is because that that's a that's a code That like it's not like it's mint. It's encoded like there's some kind of like other thing in there Jimmy just pulled this up the classical Greek word sharp sharp, mag Sharagma sharagma Translated as mark of the beast in Revelation 13 16 can also mean any mark engraved Imprinted or branded stamped money document or coin the mark of the beast is interpreted differently across the four main views of Christian eschatology dude, so that That's a code number one to you know, just one way to connect to it and it helps when you're on a psychedelic is forget about the Whether or not any of it makes sense but imagine like a mind produced that yeah, so whoever wrote that Like yeah, what was their consciousness like dude? That's some heavy shit like and it's so specific And when you get to the original At least I haven't done it for the book of revelations, but the book of John it's it becomes even more Intense and more like wait what like in the beginning was the word Logos logos so in the so you realize suddenly like within it is This psychedelic cosmology that in the beginning there was like truth. There was just truth reality and then that truth like manifested extruded itself into time space for a second to like talk about like Heaven or to talk about like the real reality outside the simulator whatever you want to call it and in and this Is the best and it gets translated a lot of different ways It was something like it was a light and the darkness and the darkness did not understand it So it's like the truth appears in the darkness the darkness is like I don't we don't even know what this is I can't see it. I don't I don't understand it and then and then that was the like Jesus is a representation of that the manifestation of that Possibility of like pure truth appearing in a world of darkness and whoa, dude, that's fucking cool regardless of historical truth or whatever that's just a beautiful and deep heavy way of talking about parallel universes or The possibility of Things happening on a planet where people have gotten completely lost or suddenly in the midst of that something appears that isn't lost that is like a pure representation of a higher consciousness or something sometimes it likes to talk it's like when you It's like sitting like you're putting yourself in one of your Sims in Sim City You just go down there and you're like, okay, like here's what's going on And then they kill him that's the best part It's like the the and so the book of John I just looked this up because I'm writing about it but the book of John it is Matthew Mark Luke synoptic gospels they have the same stories in the mostly John not synoptic and has all this weird shit in it and Not that any of the other stuff isn't weird, but particularly weird stuff in it And so those three gospels they have within them something that I've always struggled with understanding the logic Which is to be cleansed by the blood of Jesus sacrifice the God child drink his blood sins cleansed whereas book of John it has less of a focus on that and and or the redemption through the crucifixion and More saying the crucifixion itself Was the ultimate because it was the like collision between light and darkness where light Instead of getting aggro fighting back just like prayed for the people killing it and died and like Dude, you're not gonna sleep at night if you're crucifying somebody who's praying for you Who's like looking at you and loves you not in a fake bullshit spiritual way, but loves you and knows you Know is known you forever and loves you and truly forgives you Oh Oh, dude that fucks the whole game up it ruins darkness It's the ultimate atom bomb in the face of power. Yeah, go ahead and kill me dude, it's really cool, so you know Regardless that the book of revelations and all of that stuff I think it it clearly emanates from an expanded consciousness if nothing else like it you think there really was a Jesus Well, I think you know I read that Controversial book by Reza Aslan about Jesus pretty good. It's called. Oh jeez Jamie. I'm sorry I don't know the name of it. I it's so dumb man I can remember what books say, but I can't remember their titles, but yeah, he says Apparently there are references to zealot and it's controversial I know some people don't like it, but I enjoyed it, but it says like apparently there are references to a Jesus but never described as Messiah, but as a magician who was going around healing people and stuff so there is some reference to the the being but you know I like I get so bored with The attempt to find the historic Jesus because I think it really misses the point all together Like I think like you get so caught up and like trying to like find the Grail or whatever that you lose track of regardless of the truth of this being walking the earth Does it change the substance of like the parables and they're? referencing of some realm a transcendent realm a possibility outside the Suffering of the mundane world outside of like sucking Emperor dicks Get a little bit of power They actually there's something In any person's life like you can just like wake up and see it Kingdom of heaven Gnosis so to me. I don't care if just a lot of smart people who are trying to convey an ancient Cosmology Created like a character to embody that because I don't think that was to me. That's not the point I know for a lot of Christians it is and I don't mean to offend y'all It's just you know I I'm sure any Christian out there if you're not like wrestling with the Bible anyway You know you should wrestle with it yours It's meant to train you or and get in your head and like grab you and confuse you and then it's an amazing work It really is like the New Testament. I mean all of it wasn't one of that one of the controversial aspects of when Martin Luther translated it When they translated into phonetic language so that people didn't have to know Latin to yeah to read the Bible Yeah, they and he one of the more controversial things is he was like I think he was expressing something very similar to that that You're really supposed to like get out of it what you get out of it. It's open to your interpretation I think it would it loses all its power if it requires an actual Flesh being and and and I get why people want that I understand I understand the argument, but like to me that with it written within it is like Well, you know the communion for example, right? Jesus never said Here's how we were gonna do communion. He did like say something really quite beautiful about which is like Exactly like maybe the sweetest thing you can say to your friend if you're dying Which is when you eat good food Remember me and when you drink wine, I'm gonna be in that wine. Oh my god That's so sweet It's so beautiful and it's like such an invitation for everybody like anyone you can all eat. I'm in your bread I'm in like I'm in what the life force itself to the point where you can connect with me just through basic like dietary stuff Mmm, I love that. It's beautiful Like it's such a great way of fucking up the middleman the priest class the hierarchical bullshit It's like no, I'm he I'm completely with you right now Yeah, just you you gotta reach out and so these whoever what whoever wrote that I think that's what they were saying It's like we're you're kind of in a weird part of the multiverse where it's easy to forget There's a lot more going on than what you think is going on there Yeah, and it's easy to fall prey to all the tricks of that place because it's a tricky place that wants you to worship it And and and you don't have to do that Like that's beautiful. I so yeah, I don't care who it I don't care who whoever wrote it or the people who wrote it Or the you know, the how whatever the true story is it's gonna be a mystery forever But yeah, but it's such a fascinating mystery. It is like I wish I could read Aramaic and then read The the Dead Sea Scrolls. God. I know man, cuz that's the oldest one. We know of right That's the oldest version of the biblical stories. I'm pretty sure man. I mean I wouldn't I'm pretty sure I imagine there's fragments and stuff that like it's so fragmented that they had to use DNA to Determine whether or not the scrolls were from the same cow So like when you would find pieces of animal flesh that were from different cows, they knew okay. We'll put that in this pile God damn, dude, that would have been a fun archaeological dig to be working on Oh, but also what a mind fuck You know like trying to piece that puzzle together and try to figure out how old is the Dead Sea Scrolls? It's like 4,000 years old or something. Dude. I don't know. I have no idea. See how old the Dead Sea Scrolls are. I Know they found him in Qumran. They found him in clay tablet or clay pots Third century BC. Wow Yeah, man, I mean then then like when you get into like the Torah Hebrew when you get into like the a lot of the stuff Jesus was referencing and you and you get you you realize like not only Is it like powerful writing with like incredible? parables in it about like Ways society collapses or families collapse or a life collapses It also is like mathematical Like that that you know, I can't remember the name of it There's a whole thing where you like the number, you know, I know we've talked about this God and nature same number like God and love Is the same that? So it's it's ancient Hebrew. They're their numbers doubled as letters Yeah, and then you see there's an intentionality to that patterning. Yeah And so then then you realize like oh so like on top of telling these in powerful stories They figured out a way to encode within the powerful stories more Information. Yeah, only people are gonna find if they dig deeper That's designed to be there for you if you want it, but you've got to want it You gotta dig in things like that language too complicated. Let's abandon it Ancient Hebrew, oh, yeah Also uncovered was a 6,000 year old skeleton of a partially mummified child and a 10,500 year old basket Which Israeli authorities said could be the oldest in the world a CT scan revealed the child's age Was between 6 and 12 with the skin tendons and even hair partially preserved 2021 I don't remember hearing about this. I don't remember hearing about that. I don't I've never heard that 8,000 BC ish or even long a little 8500 BC when I found this basket was made wait What is that? Can we read that among the recovered texts which are still on Greek is nehoom? 156 which says the mountains quake because of him and the hills melt the earth heaves before The world and all that dwell therein who can stand before his wrath who can resist his fury his anger pours out like fire And rocks are shattered because of him Huh? Fuck I mean that's nature Wow It's hit over hold up Says the authorities said these words differ slightly from other Bible versions shedding a rare light on how biblical text changed over time from its earliest form The dead the desi scrolls have a lot of really weird stuff in them like what? Well, you know the the Christian stuff the the the John Marco Allegro stuff from the sacred mushroom in the cross That's that's all his interpretation I'm sure you would have to be a scholar to understand even what the fuck they're saying But he was essentially saying that you can trace back the word Christ to an ancient Sumerian word which means a mushroom covered in God's semen And he thinks that when God orgasmed on the earth things would blossom from it This is like what the way ancient people used to think of when it rained They said literally think God was coming and then when those mushrooms would just appear out of the grass Which you know mushrooms grow really quickly, you know that yeah so when people would wake up in the morning and see these mushrooms after the rain and They would eat them and trip their fucking balls off. Yeah John Marco Allegro believed that this was the source of the original Christianity Well, it was a lot. It was about psychedelic rituals and it was about fertility cults Yeah, it's about people trying to Trying to duplicate trying to have children. I Mean, yeah, that's crazy, man. Yeah. Oh god, that would have been so fun the trip It's from God's jizz eat it unless your knee breaks and there's no doctors There's no nothing you just die Infection die. Yeah, there's some drawbacks. Oh, there's a lot of drawbacks on them drawbacks No, penicillin no antibiotics No vitamins no grocery stores no hand washing no hand washing no knowledge of What what's going on with bacteria? They probably wash their hands occasionally. I mean Killing fish. I'm sure there's shit. We're not doing right now I'm sure as a species that we should be doing like some thing or in the future They're like they didn't they didn't tap their pineal glands every morning, right? One hack yeah, just what a hack that makes you live vlogger, but yeah, man, I think if you explore the psychedelic universe as a as an existent place that Is has its own consciousness its own mind and is interested in spreading itself into like little bubbles of Like I don't know Parts of the universe that have forgotten about it. Yeah, cuz that's the thing we get amnesia of it here Everyone's amnesic right that reality It exploring like you know the idea that sometimes it wants to send a letter here Yeah, it tries to break through not just the Jesus, but with any like of what we call a Messiah or prophet or whatever Oh, it's just some it's like a leak in the dam Separating us from eternity and paradise and these leaks appear in the form of people saying these things that run counter to power structures and Almost immediately the leak is sealed or crucified or whatever and then the Whatever they were saying it's co-opted and suddenly a hierarchy appears within the thing. So now you've got a priest class in Christianity there's a there's a tire hierarchical systems of Christianity and that's fascinating to me because like the The thing that my understanding of it is like you don't really need a priest class like you don't need any you and me Like you and truth you get to You get to hang out together without anybody. Yeah telling you actually that's not The real truth your mind is broken. Here's the changes back to cults Yeah, when one person is the person who decides? the way things should be and Yeah, makes the rules the translations. Yeah, and they dressed like the Pope They dress like the Pope there's a well, I mean there's so many costumes for it Yeah, like but generally if you see someone wearing a costume and it's not Halloween, you know Or you're not at like a convention. You better watch the fuck out especially if the person wearing a costume is telling you that they Are such an authority on this subject or that that you can't even fucking question it that you're questioning itself Is offensive now you got to watch out because if that's happening you could be in a cult Like if someone's telling that to you if they're like we don't even ask that question Yeah, that's you better watch the fuck out because that once people start doing that man Yeah, you know they shut down then now they're shutting down the truth or the joy they comes from Turning on the light in the darkness, you know, like the joy of when someone comes to you confused truly confused And you give them like real data that can change their lives. You know what I mean? Now you're ruining that possibility Not to mention you're telling people not to trust their rational mind Like the essence of who they are like this could be off a little bit. Mmm. Oh Watch out man people in costumes Yeah people in costumes it's just wild that it works police uniforms and You You know, look if cops How to just wear guns and like a badge around their neck with regular clothes That would be a disaster because there's so many like at least now if you want to like impersonate a cop you got to like go to a costume shop I mean now anybody like I'm a cop Isn't that crazy though? They're like they have an outfit they wear an outfit Yes with a with a star some with it like a special star that imbues power I mean, this is credentialing right like this is like once you have gone to university for a certain amount of time gotten deeply into debt to the banks You were given a credential or like a license right to practice Whatever the particular thing is that you went to school for but you you like essentially have like given the banks all this fucking money to get a magic star on your certificate where people know, okay, this person is the real deal and That that is really like Fascinating man that you know when I go to a doctor, I want to see some fucking certificates on the wall But I never in my life going to a doctor like Remembered the certificates and gone home and like did he really go to that university? Never well, they have caught people doing that pretending to be doctors Leasing office space setting up fake things on the wall, dude I saw a whole forensic files about it. Like I think I guided surgery Oh my god, like I think a guy was like it had his hands and people's guts Who tricked them into thinking he was a doctor? Wow. Yeah Wow, yeah people are fucking crazy Yeah, man, and it's like I'm just think about like if it's like people are printing money You think people aren't printing certificates? For themselves of this school that just knowing in general people are lazy No one's gonna look this up. And if they do I'll just change my phone number if they don't I'm a fucking doctor now Wow, yeah Well, there's always been frauds. There's always been these weird people that pretend to be somebody it's such a strange Thing because it's just like an exercise and how well you can just keep pretending You know because you got to pretend for a long time and you gotta tell people stories about where you went to school And yeah, what hospitals you've worked out and yeah It's it's camo. It's like it's just like any other predator man It just figures out how to like blend in or turn into its prey and then boom you're in there I look why are we veering into this paranoid land? It's like so scary to think about that, but I Guess you're supposed to I guess that's it's important to like recognize that aspect of things or you get like You get fucked over usually Usually you have to be aware that some people are just full of shit You have to be aware that some people are just They're sociopaths. They don't have the same sort of emotional connection to others And what they're doing is like trying to play a game like I'm going to pretend to be a doctor What who says I'm not a doctor. Yeah, I'm gonna talk like a doctor I'm gonna listen to doctors on YouTube and the way they describe certain procedures. I think I could do those procedures You know fucking just a pliers on someone's tooth Oh out of their head Just lying. I'm a dentist. I'm a dead how hard can't be a big dentist can't be that hard This is just teeth. How hard would it be you just put some putty dr. Just drill it in your teeth Yeah, nurse doesn't know she thinks he's a doctor. Yeah, man. She's just a nurse she got hired Yeah, or the dental assistant. They're gonna be right. What is a just an assistant with rubber gloves on some someone works there Yeah, dude like what the fuck it's like we you know again. You just have to like it's You realize like if all you have to do is put on a costume and you know maybe not everybody but Enough people are gonna think that you are important or more Advanced than them all you have to do is put on a costume Yeah, of course people are gonna do that all the time all the time people do that with business suits They wear business suits Yeah, they wear business suits or and you know people there's something suspicious about it. It's like shouldn't Shouldn't just what you're saying or your skill set Be enough like the fact you have to indicate on top of that by wearing like a weird outfit That that's suspicious. I'm not saying ceremonial garb is important I get it in like certain like rights like you know the the priests wearing what they're wearing all has Significance it's a fractal it represents something like I'm not like I'm not saying That it auto means something's fucked. I'm like, but it's just such an exploitable flaw in society You know, that's all it's like if Nifix is exploitable it's been exploited I mean, there's like clearly you just go on YouTube some lunatic just decides to start pulling people over Yeah, for sure. I wonder if anybody's ever pretending to be a Disney employee Like give people tours and they're just a crazy person. Oh my god Like somehow you just get the Mickey Mouse costume in there How could you well, I bet there's so many employees. How could you know? There's a well, I mean you could certainly like sneak in and probably find a costume and like get into it and then just walk around Disney World and nobody would know Florida man pretended to be Disney World staffer to steal a famous character police say Oh Heist Florida man always Florida man One year ago today. Oh interesting a man Allegedly pretended to be Walt Disney World employee by wearing a name tag Work pants and a work vest to the theme park on in May Florida man who was looking for a security got job at Walt Disney World has been accused of stealing a character statue from the park in May Wow R2-D2 statue worth up to ten thousand dollars Wow Christ 10 grand for an R2-D2 statue you guys switched to Disney. I found the story of a teenager Who got access to two different hospitals? And bought a car for like $50,000 before he got caught This says he just went up to the like customer service area and said he lost his badge and someone a volunteer gave him a badge What at one of the places? Oh my god In all kinds of places inside the hospitals. Oh my god I don't think he did anything but it also says he bought these scrubs like 60 bucks He had access critical care areas including emergency room intensive care units operating rooms Cath lab and even newborn nursery. Oh my god. So this fucking maniac was just around people's newborn babies Nurses became suspicious Bailey went largely unnoticed and spent weeks hanging around the hospital from March 31st 2022 to April 28th 2022 Then one night in the ICU nurses got suspicious in the ICU He was talking about his girlfriend and cars just all sorts of stuff and the more he was talking about the more I felt Something is not right. Holy shit an unidentified nurse told investigators I don't know if he was specifically asking for access to the computer But he was just mentioning that he doesn't have access and he was asking how you get access Nurses found Bailey's social media account and realized he was not who he said he was They reported right away and the teenager was escorted out his badge was disabled and the police got involved Wandering around What a weirdo Was talking about girls and cars that threw him off like what is what is he talking about like supposed to be working? Why is he spending so much time in the newborn area? Just wandering around with his badge dressed up like a nurse Did you ever see that there was like some YouTube video like? People realize if you carry a ladder into a movie theater, you don't have to buy tickets Like if you walk into a movie theater holding a ladder people just assume you work there and you just like these kids were just filming Themselves going into places with a ladder. It's like the ultimate key to get you in to anywhere That's so ridiculous, dude. I know it is ridiculous. There's just so many, you know levels of Society that if you don't have any ethics or morals you can just hack it. Yeah, so it's like just terrible really Guys for me just sure you can walk in anywhere with the ladder as long as you look like you know You're supposed to be there. Don't stop you He's in a he's in a restaurant just walked into the kitchen five-star hotel No one stops him I see people doing this at the Oscars at different music festivals They just get the the credentials and just show up and just find the right person Yeah, it's crazy we don't number our cinemas yes cinemas are not numbers This guy just Okay Look I don't know. I mean fortunately for us. There's like lots of people who aren't you know, false prophets That was the word for it false prophet like I think that's in the book of revelations the rise of these false prophets who like wear the costume but They're the opposite of the thing Most people I've met like from the Ram Dass retreats and stuff certainly my meditation teacher David niktern If you've just met him talking to him, you would never know Right away that he'd like trained with chogimchapar impeshay one of the great Buddhist teachers He's not putting it out there. It's not like you know what I mean, but then and other people at those retreats you forget Like you'll meet these people who've spent their entire lives meditating like Living in caves in India, but they're wearing a Hawaiian shirt So you've don't you just forget for a second You're talking to them then you realize you will realize because there is a difference there is something there. That's like what's the big difference? You know what the closest thing I can point to it sounds so weird like the times I've been hanging out with you every once while being out with a UFC fighter or like some weird Seal or something, you know like some dude who like is like You know, they come to the UFC whatever so You're hanging out with them. And then you realize like this guy is like for someone who like Could murder me right now is the nicest guy ever met in my life You know what I mean they have this glow they have this like they're tuned in In this way now, I don't mean to compare spiritual teachers to UFC fighters But I think what they have in common potentially is discipline like real rigorous hardcore focused discipline upon some system and With those teachers man, they're there there's this like Chloe non bullshitty very authentic quality to them and Inevitably you present to them something that's bothering you or whatever and they have this way of just instantly shifting the energy around it so that you feel like it's manageable or you can It's not what you think you realize fuck man. I had framed this in this Horrific way and they just have this ability to shift that not like in a bullshit way Like always look on the bright side kiddo, but a real compassionate What a way of like I feel like you do it to people sometimes like you see people and then Sometimes people are really good at seeing people but they're not good at forgiving what they see or they're not good at seeing like There's a possibility in anybody to be Happier yeah, right and seeing that possibility They just see the shit that's making them unhappy, you know and focus on that and and and and those people are dicks but like some people can see through that to like where you you could be and they believe you could get there and they do it Effortlessly because they're trained they've trained themselves and being compassionate. Yeah, that's fucking incredible to be around that energy man I mean, it's like a good feeling because like, you know when you're doing it, it's not like you're all fake. Haha You get serious, you know, there's a seriousness to it when they're talking to you when you're having that kind of conversation it's not like frothy necessarily and But mixed into that seriousness is like they're just trying to get through to you like to show you something They want you to be happy. Yeah, it's very hard to know sometimes like what if someone is Being real or if someone is putting on a role Yeah, yeah, well, yeah the the the chugging Old-as-fuck You realize like oh shit It's the tradition itself is like irrelevant like what the tradition was pointing to is outside of time And so, you know what I mean? So that that's that's where you when you're around it You don't just get the feeling of like fresh baked bread you get the feeling of like this is like cutting-edge like you're around like really advanced Technology like a feeling of like Whoa this not only is this like right here right now in this moment, but uh I've been blind to it like I couldn't even see it until like now I'm seeing it and then That the idea behind that is not for you to go to them So you can keep seeing it The idea is like then hopefully that sets you on fire So you your life becomes something like within your life is an attempt to like kind of Remember that or see it or like, you know recognize it, but this is why we need friends Because you'll forget it or I'll forget it. Yeah, and we need people to like not like hey Sinner or whatever but like maybe just in the way they are Yeah, just you get very weird when they move off on their own away from their friends to some new place Dude yeah, it gets real weird we're Now you you have your family, but you don't have any friends like you don't know anybody there. It's a bizarre reset Yeah, man It's like it's fucked up because it takes a long time to have good friends like you know years and years and years get invested Uh-huh in like an informal way. Yeah, man, and you you know, that's the thing like you've got a this is a That well, they call it satsang is the name for it, but it's like a spiritual community. It's a fancy like word for a Formation that appears in all things. It doesn't have to be connected to some spirituality. It's just like this energetic like affinity or Happens between people and sometimes you'll meet people And you're like, you know them right away. You feel like you've known them forever Like there's a instant click with some people, you know, that's the satsang like it's beautiful And it's like it's it's a it's a great name for a very normal thing. I don't think it's like necessarily Crazy or like it sounds Maybe I'm making it overly spiritual, but you know, I meet people sometimes and it's like I've known you forever and it's like we're picking up a conversation Seemingly that we've been having Like many lifetimes right that feeling that's just because it's it's so Refreshing when you meet someone who's genuinely engaging with you in a conversation. It's a thing that people normally do right? You have conversations, but how many people do you mean? They're really good at it and how many people do you meet how many people do you meet that when you have a conversation with them? It's like really enjoyable. It's really and there's a lot of like like there's a dance going on. Yeah, it's not just one person just Spitting out and and you just taking all the details of their life's journey like okay And then what'd you do? Oh, wow. So do you talk to your sister still? Oh You know, that's called your aunt now. Oh info dumping. Yeah That could be exhausting even when someone has an a fascinating life sometimes that's exhausting because it's such a an attention hog of the conversation like it's it's hogging up the whole conversation now because when you Info dump, you know, your life generally takes a long time to describe So this is like if we're here eating dinner for 40 minutes It's a speech Like bring slides if you're gonna do that bring slides. It's like do a presentation a visual presentation but with slides Listening it's like lit like it's like when you get like when you get around a person who's listening to you Regardless of like how good they are conversationally like when you realize someone's like actually like listening and You know that that that is that feels incredible man, and especially when like They're mixed in with that listening is like love Whoa, like like it's the best it's the best feeling ever And even if like you don't you don't agree on shit or you're gonna get confused about stuff or whatever Yeah, man, it's listening. Mm-hmm. We just listening is like For some people it's like it's very difficult to dance Some people suck at it. Yeah Yeah, they're just not good You know, it's it's also requires concentration Sometimes people don't want to concentrate or agenda. Yeah, the other problem is agenda Yeah, so it's like, you know, I love chatting with you and like any time an agenda starts popping up in the midst of our conversation I try to banish it from my mind. So I like pop back into the moment But that agenda when that creeps into somebody You can see it on their face You're like fuck man. They've already decided what they're gonna say to me. So why do I why do I even keep talking? And they're just and now they're wrestling with you Like when people want to debate about things and you know that it's not really about the ideas It's about them trying to win. It gets so Gets exhausted No, I know that people love to do that certain people that love do that. Like I don't want to do that Dude, I do I've done it. I just feels horrible. Yeah, cuz what do you like any like especially in like an argument people you love some sometimes you being right It's like it sucks like great. So now you're right, right? So now you're angry and right now What now I'm now you're just angry and right no connection has been made Nothing is like changed other than you are right and you're angry and that's man. That's sad when anytime like you win that kind of argument, it's just like Nothing happened. Nothing changed. It's gonna save us as neural link And once we get those things synced up and then there's gonna be no misunderstandings no Miscommunications and everyone's gonna be held accountable. There's gonna be an awkward couple weeks When early comes out there's gonna be two weeks of real awkward moments You'll find out how people really feel like all these dudes who like have these Like if you're like an 80 year old guy and you're married to some 30 year old Instagram model So now you've tricked yourself into thinking I know what you really thinks about you. Oh Oh my god, I don't really like it'll put gold digging right out of business or They'll they'll have to get really good at masking their intentions Yeah, or they can they can like assume a persona for a certain amount of years to acquire a certain amount of money Or at least like if you let someone come dig in your gold, it's consensual You're right. You want to come dig in my gold right come dig. It has to be that I have lots of gold Once there's mine reading it's gonna have to be that way. Yeah, it's just like hey, can I dig in your gold for a couple of Weeks? It's gonna be one of those deals for like I Mean No disrespect to gold diggers or prostitutes, but it's basically prostitution You're doing it for money, right? It's like you're if you're some lady who's a A professional temptress and you can cling to some 82 year old billionaire Yeah, like that is a very good financial bargain Like if you could somehow or another get in that will like how does that work? I don't know you love me or not so why am I not in the will when I tell you that I love you and you tell me that you love me where's What happens when you die? Am I gonna be taken care of? Yeah, Duncan. Yes. Yes. I'll put you in the will my dear. Show me. Okay, look here. Show me There it is. And then once you show me gobble gobble gobble It was worth it Especially when they're old they're like fuck the kids Fuck the fuck the ex-wife fuck the shareholders. I 82 I just think probably like if if I was gold digging Number one I would like have to trick myself into thinking I'm not gold digging to Successfully execute a gold dig right like I have to So it's like yeah shit's rough man. I've been able to pay my rent things are kind of fucked up I was hanging out with Bernie happens to like, you know As a massive amount of money from his business and you know, I don't know he just I know it sounds crazy because he's so much older than me, but I feel like we have a connection I know you won't understand it. It's outside of time like the ages of just a number Yeah, and so you to fully pull off the heist so to speak you believe In what you're doing and some and because it's a human being and because really like at some level Bernie is still 30 year old Bernie underneath all whatever is collapsing around him. You do connect to that Yeah, and you do start loving it because the cognitive dissonance of being a purist sociopath is too much See you thought you a part of you falls in love in a weird gross way That definitely would probably end the moment. He's like, I don't care how many times you suck my dick. I'm not putting you in the well But but maybe while he's alive it's worth it just for the perks I Don't know man. I mean this I'm sure you get a Ferrari. I would love to hear an honest It must exist an honest story about a person who did that because I could imagine like the beginning phase You have this idea in your mind Well, really the fucking awful idea you have in your mind probably is that money is going to heal all of the emotional trauma That led me to a place where I'll manipulate old people for their money You know what? I mean, right then you get the money and not and you and then you're faced with that awful realization Like oh fuck. I'm still fucked up. Yeah, he died. I have all this money. I'm still fucked up It didn't work and I and now I have to live with that I mean, it's really really sad truly, but I mean also people like old dudes who have like You know hooked up with girls. I get it. Let him yeah, I get it. Let him but I get all of it Let him let it you know, but What's interesting is like if a woman does like marry an 80 year old billionaire Then he dies and she gets all that money. She carries that For life. Yeah Like everybody she meets is gonna be like she used to be married to And then when he died she got billions. Everyone's gonna be like, oh She's odd Yeah, this is a person thick Yeah, she's a bombshell and she married some dying old man Yeah, it's gonna be those people then it's gonna be people are like That was badass Congratulations. Good job. Yeah, there's gonna be some people like that, but that's just a narrative. That's like a movie narrative Like what you were looking at as a deceptive person looks like it's like So weird con game that you do with people's emotions Dude, it's just you know, man like fucking survival Survival is embarrassing sir. When you get scared Mmm, very embarrassing when you and when you get so scared that you you you're so consumed by your own fear that you allow it to control you to the point that you like become a manipulator or a con artist or Grifter or whatever and like behind it is just fucking fear It's like, you know, like you people get mad at the TSA It's like you can't really do much worse to the TSA than what? They're already doing do you know how bad it sucks? I imagine to like rub down people all day long you have to drive to the airport You're not going on a vacation. You're gonna like be rubbing the back of your hand against irritated stranger dicks All day long all day long and it's like if a judge sentenced someone to that That's cruel and unusual punishment. You'll be like no you can't do that. Like that's inhumane. So it's like with this archetype of person man I think like the suffering they're experiencing the confusion the lack of security the uncertainty the Realization at some level of their like inauthenticity Hmm that is a pretty intense punishment. Just buy it there alone Like what's your but is it a punishment if you don't know anything else? looks like if That's one of the things like remember when Gary Coleman was a security guard Yes, and people would like show up to his work and make fun of him Yeah, no one would do that to a regular security guard, but you do it to a guy who used to be famous You do it to a guy who used to have some right and now they don't and now you can just throw rocks at him Yeah, it's so brutal. It's weird. It's weird. It's just a regular job. There's nothing wrong with having a regular job but if you had escaped That world and you had made a lot of money and then all sudden you have to go back to it and have a regular job People feel like they openly could mock you. Yep, very strange, right? Very strange like ha ha you have to work Right, just like all of us you have to work like yeah It's work. Like what are you doing? Yeah, why you yelling at this person, right? Why are you creeping this person out? Dude is the person the Coleman thing in particular man. I remember like hearing that and you see the photos when he was dead he got a gold digger and like when he was married to this lady she took a photo of For the gram like right next to his body You ever see that photo? No here. See if you can find that like she took a selfie with get yeah, look at this So here he is she put that on her Instagram look at that I mean what was a while ago? So I don't know what year we're talking about if they even had Instagram Like I get doing that picture just because you want to remember someone you love or it's oh, I can't imagine publishing it though Well poor dude poor dude poor dude fucking rough one What a rough one man, and it starts out with this amazing thing all of a sudden America loves you You're on a television show and you're the star. Yeah In that that is one of the wildest things that happens to really young people They put them on a show and they're a star and then the rest of their life is trying to like Figure what the fuck happened? Yeah, like what? What was that? What was life? Dude, I mean this is the whole Right now there's this huge Debate over like the the model of Instagram influencer that films their kids all the time. Oh Right like the argument is like, you know, if you want kids to work in the movies There's all these protections from the really intense protections now But the Instagram stuff that you're monetizing like filming your kids and some kind of weird Self-produced reality show there's no protection for the kids like there's no like, you know I think child actors now their money gets put in a trust You know that so there's this huge argument right now over like is that even like should that even be legal? So it's just like babies that have their own Instagram account or something like what do you it's a mode of? It's it's like a I don't watch it a lot My wife's like tells me about it sometimes but it's basically a mode of like, you know putting up YouTube content So you're like parenting YouTube channel. You're filming your kids every day all day long Filming them like sleeping filling like This is a for instance this is this has happened a couple times on YouTube child abuse charges against YouTube channel mom Underscore the lack of oversight for kids law insurers professional child performers are safe educated and not working too many hours But they don't extend the stars of popular YouTube channels Yeah, and so you have like really overzealous parents exploiting their children Dude, it's like it's it's relentless And I think some of the kids are now like coming of age and talking about how fucked up it was like, you know Cuz it's like it's it's the birth It's their birthday and then the toys they're getting them they're giving them for their birthday or toys that have been given to them by brands Right. Oh, and so there's a video of them opening up the toy by the brand and that acts as an advertiser Yeah, yeah, so the kids birthday gets turned into a commercial. What's that Jamie's fucked up? I mean, I'm not gonna share all the details I guess but it's not good. Oh Yeah child stars of YouTube hit fantastic adventures Allegedly abused by adopted mother the children told police their adopted mother starved beat and pepper sprayed them when they failed to follow directions for videos official said Dude I Don't I don't remember who this was but like Erin showed me I guess like one of these people And again, I this is a second information I didn't read it, but I know she's like sees this stuff basically, there was some protection that got put in place where If you wanted to watch their video, I don't know what it was like They were being demonetized or any their point So they were gonna have to go behind a paywall and they were I don't know they were saying something about how like Something about pedophiles admitting they knew pedophiles watch those kid videos, you know what I mean and like trying to rationalize The way they were doing it because it was making it harder for the pedophiles to watch kid videos to watch them some crazy shit Like that, but that's the other really fucked up aspect of it Is that when you have a huge audience and you're showing your kids in bathing suits? There is a Definite percentage of the audience that are not interested in watching your kids Saturday barbecue or whatever the fuck you're doing Remember don't you remember when like they figured out a way in the YouTube comments. They would leave time codes for when the camera was like Instagram algorithms connect vast network of pedophiles seeking child pornography according to researchers whoa Not to mention they're deep faking their kids for sure you know like they're taking the kids and they're deep faking them and God knows what so you scroll back up to the top Jamie the top words is so Parent company better says establish the task force to combat the problems and It says Instagram's recommendation algorithms have enabled a vast network of pedophiles seeking illegal underage sexual content and activity according to a Wall Street Journal expose a 2800 word article published Wednesday the journal said it conducted an investigation into child pornography on Meta-owned Instagram in collaboration with researchers at Stanford and the University of Massachusetts Amherst Wow Holy shit, yeah, man. Yeah, this is like, you know the fucking organized pedophile network Yeah, you really have to think when you're putting your kid online like regardless of like whatever it is because you have to understand You know you are showing pictures of your child to strangers and now there's technology I mean, they're already like you think they're just deep faking celebrities, right? And so, you know Then add to that the monetization in other words So when you're mate you're filming your kid and you have a very popular YouTube account with like featuring your child You know That when you upload that thing Like people are watching your kid and jerking off, right? And and and and that these people maybe know where your kids go to school or they live You know what I mean? So that is an emergent Issue right now for protection. Yeah. Yeah, it's like a one of the weird things as we approach the singularity it's like one of the weird cultural issues that haven't been dealt with yet, well, I've Been very lucky to talk to a lot of people that were famous when they're young, you know from doing this podcast Yeah, and I've never met one of them that came out better because of it I mean every one of them is just like struggling to try to figure out Why did I get exposed to all these strangers as a child? Yeah Yeah, why was I exposed to all that attention as a child when I'm supposed to be developing? Interacting with people trying to figure out what it how to move my body How to talk how to interact like why am I doing this publicly at six? I mean your childhood was converted into money Yeah, like they took their childhood dropped into a money machine Mm-hmm, and it's like and and and you couldn't consent and then possible your parents were so excited Well, the parents are usually getting rich right and but and they're also saying like thank you. Look at this life We have you're so talented. So then if you start feeling like I don't think I want to act anymore I don't like this or this feels fucked up. I just want some more free time all the guilt All the guilt kicks in because you're like I gotta keep doing it. It's keeping my parents afloat the whole lifestyle Is so fucked up to do that kid deal the kids childhood and turn it into money That's a great way to put it and then pretend That the child is complicit you you trick yourself as a parent into thinking we're all on the same team Isn't this great? What an adventure and it's like dude, I You know just my kids don't like it Sometimes when we are just taking pictures and I don't blame them, you know I hate it when people take pictures and but they you know any parents taking pictures of their kids But sometimes my kids are like they don't want the phone and it's like, okay. Okay, no problem Imagine all day all day mommy setting up another shot in the kitchen Spooky people are so nuts with attention. Do you hear about that one guy that? Crashed his plane on purpose for YouTube views. Yes Okay jumped out of the plane. Hi like let it fucking crash For life reviews for views I Mean, I guess when you're doing the math and you think I'm it's a direct deliberately crashing plane to get YouTube views so like This guy just jumped out of a fucking plane So like who knows who's kid that fucking plane is gonna slam into yeah, imagine you're hiking with your family This is amazing beautiful mountains and you get hit in the face by a plane By a plane that was like flown by a YouTube influencer. Why would I mean you just ruin that plane, too? Well, I think the calculation is he knows the number of views He's gonna get on YouTube will generate more money than the plane was worth So there's a profit there like whatever you paid for the plane is probably less than what he'll make from YouTube from that video And You got video footage of the plane crash Say the camera on the plane It is so crazy. We could do this now that we can convert our lives and the money It's so crazy. You could like just film yourself doing shit and then like maybe make So much money off of like just stuff that you know normal stuff. So was this guy trying to say that he The plane crash Happened with him in it. Was he trying to like fake that and they had a hike out Is that what is what he's doing? Or did he like let people know that he jumped out of the plane? All right, here's what he said. It was an accident that actually happened in 2021 Oh, and they just found out about the whole investigation happened. It's cool, man. There's there's videos of pilots Watching the video and like making commentary on why it's suspicious because like apparently you look at the plane And there's stuff that should be in a plane. That's not in a plane like expensive stuff Yeah, he said it just like that. He was acting like the engine went out and he had to bail But he also then went a new where it crashed and snuck back in and pulled the wreckage out before like the FA could go And investigate he pulled the wreckage out. Yeah He says it told him to preserve the wreckage. So he waited two days to report the crash. I Think he had already gone. Oh it out of there something like that, huh? More than two weeks after the crash He had a friend and flew a helicopter the crash site and air lifted the wreckage To Rancho Sisquak in Santa Barbara County where it was loaded onto a trailer attached to Jacob's pickup truck Whoa, it's not wild Yeah, he unloaded it in a hangar drove the wreckage to an airport He then cut up and destroyed the airplane wreckage and over the course of a few days Deposited the attached parts of the wrecked airplane into trash bins in the airport and elsewhere Wow Three million views off of that Yeah, super normal would be just chopping an airport an airplane up and putting in trash bins all over the airport Think of like your inner dialogue is your depositing your your plane. What would you do to a body? That sounds like it sounds like he's doing to a body. Yeah. Yeah, he was he was just trying to like it like Like it's such a complex Way to get YouTube views like it. Yeah, it worked though. It worked, but now he's gonna go to jail Yeah for maybe a long time. Like yeah, like I think so Years he faces holy shit 20 years for a stupid YouTube stuff and a penalty of up to $1,644 for each day. He did not return I mean we do need strict penalties for sure to keep people from just just like dropping planes out of the sky on us Yeah. Yeah, you got a set of example for a guy like that and that guy could Dude, I mean who knows where that planes What happens if that plane catches wind that's so well eyes into someone's house And then the guy's a mass murderer when they were making YouTube in the early days I don't think they ever thought that like there would be plane crashes because of their technology I don't think they ever thought like this thing is going to like Influence right society and just destroy lives People are gonna ruin their lives For for views on this thing Imagine that guy had a plot out where the plane was gonna crash too Cuz he had to be jumping high enough where you can jump I don't know what that threshold is But you got to be pretty high up there where you can jump and then film yourself before you even pull the parachutes Right. So he's filming himself. Yeah. I mean it was a plan like he thought about plugging plane is way Way up and that that suckers. How long Do you think it flies for if you really do you That's a he could have killed people easily I mean the assumption is no one's gonna be out there But I mean that's a huge assumption such a huge assumption you could hit another plane You could do there's a lot of things gonna happen Yeah, you're way up there and you're bailing out while it's way up there So it has to be up there enough where you could jump out. How high was it when he jumped out? Does it say I'm looking for more details. He said he was trying to get a sponsorship deal With who better help Can almost figure it out so I'll just let people look that up you can kind of guess it's Doesn't say the name of it though, but What do you mean you can kind of guess it says it's a wallet company. Oh god Jesus Christ, he's trying to get a sponsorship It's I mean this era of capitalism is so bizarre The way people are Manipulating the system or just the what they're doing Wow Just yeah, that's what I love regardless of how also you have to like ethics aside Whoa, yeah, that is badass like pull away the ethics. Just look at like purely What you not only did you like fly your plane in this guy jump out of it? But yeah, he represented the United States is snowboarding 2014 Winter Olympics. He's an Olympian and then he like put himself in the worst situation and managed to hike out and then Like monetize it dispose of the plane. He has a friend with a helicopter who was like, yeah sure I'll get your wreckage Fuck man, that's like pull the ethics out and it's like what a fascinating Rotten dude, right? Like yeah, right. He's got a friend with a helicopter that pulled plane wreckage out of the mountains He's got like those are that's you that's how you know, you got a friend Yeah, well you pay him a lot, right? Cuz like I was what he was doing illegal Like you do there's probably some rules like if you have to report a plane crash You can't just like take the wreckage. I imagine there's enough like ways you could talk your way out of that one. Really? Yeah, I didn't know he told me you reported it. Yeah, I didn't know yeah, right that I'm sure Yeah, I mean, I don't know look I don't know I'm just out here working flying my helicopter around I don't know what's going on. Just pick it up a broken plane. I am but a helicopter pilot. Yeah Yeah, I I imagine the helicopter pilot is like price sweating a little bit, but he's probably okay Right like cuz they're gonna focus on the yeah maniac who? Flew his plane into a mountainside for YouTube views What a world what a world It's interesting because whenever these are emerging technologies exist like social media sites where you can Do things to get attention? You're going to see certain people that They grab a hold of it in a very weird way and certain sociopathic psychopathic The members of our society who go I know how to do I'm going to pretend to assault people at the mall Or I'm going you know there's a lot of those that shit's so weird and they do it for and some of them get fucked up Like they've jumped people at the ATM machine like pretend jump like give me all your money And the guy just beats the fuck out of them. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I know I mean it's a prank. It's a prank They always seem shocked. Yeah, that's the like why are you kids that are living in the internet? Yeah, I've seen a few I saw that like I think some kid at Home Depot Just got slammed to the ground like you know they're trying to fuck with these like old, but big people who are like Definitely like the best part of their day is beating the shit out of some yes little puke with a cell phone Yeah, maybe they're here. Yeah Boy 16 fatally shot during prank gone wrong in Northwest, Indiana. Oh no He was shot and killed with an apparent prank gone wrong 16 year old was found suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest in the backyard of a residence just before midnight Officer began administering CPR victim showed no signs of life He's pronounced dead at the scene police police had the initial investigation determined the victim of an 18 year old were in the back The victim and an 18 year old were in the backyard with friends when the 18 year old pulled out a gun as a prank And it accidentally discharged striking the boy in the chest. Oh, that's different that's different like He didn't God damn Jesus Christ, it's just you know this technology man Like it's just it's it's growing and more like yeah, it's been introduced to this population This Biome and and like yeah, it's like any other thing when you introduce it to an ecosystem like it causes Problems that you never expect yeah Real problems this similar thing this guy got shot doing something I guess like one of these YouTube videos where they're fucking with people in a store mm-hmm This is what I'm getting off of the video I was a debt another guy he was fucking with someone that guy shot him it says he was harassing the gunman Yeah, so fucking sad Good night everybody imagine being a kid just trying to figure out what to do in this world Imagine being a teenager and you're looking at all the different possibilities for your life as an adult like what you gonna do for a living Yeah, and influencers one of those It's a real that's a real possibility now. Yeah. Yes totally man. I mean that yeah or like You know the other possibility the new job is prompt engineer of your that no prompt engineer is a name of per It's like essentially an AI whisperer. It's someone who knows how to tell an AI or Specific instructions that work for some goal. It's so generally like that's like art Maybe like cuz you know talking to mid-journey, which is this insane text to our AI like there's a lot like when you like the the amount of weird specificity involved Compound to three hundred seventy five thousand dollars a year, and you don't always require a background attack. Oh wow That's the one offering 800 K the other day Jesus. Isn't that cool? It's like when now there's a job where you talk to robots where you're better at talking to robots than other people That's a real job now. It's In and God knows the other weird like by the time like you and I are super old man Like what the shit everyone's gonna be doing is gonna seem so odd. Yeah, and it's happening quicker and quicker. That's what's weird It's like society is transforming culturally quicker and quicker Technologically quicker and quicker. It's like it's going to make these giant changes that are gonna happen at such a rapid rate that It's gonna be hard to remember when they didn't exist before yeah, there's no time to get used to it anymore There's no time. Yeah, you used to have so long to get used to see even like stupid news like the Roomba Which was like remember when the floor robot came out everyone's like what the amazing But we had time before the next thing came out now because of AI It's working on things and solving problems so fast that like they already Jamie's you see that thing It's a it already like solve some big problem in medicine. It's like it's already like Figuring shit out that's gonna have direct applications to a human lifespan curing diseases And then in the amount of time it might take for to get to that point with human brains is way Way longer than the AI brain is that the Faustian bargain because in the process of giving up your Your the way you source information to artificial intelligence Then just starts to take control over other aspects of your life Why don't we just do government we can do government better than people yeah, yeah, do you have to be again so bad? Yeah, me too, man And we're back Dude, uh, it's so hard to concentrate when you have to pee. It really is it's crazy Like you barely can form sentences like I don't remember what we were talking about. I was just like I had a piece so bad, dude I Love that we never remember what we're talking about. It's really I think is it like irrelevant honestly Ultimately because like what's on your mind right now? Yeah, just what's on your what's what's going what's on your mind the second man? It's just like fuck. I just you know I The fact that like this is a conversation in like the UFO universe that's happening which is watching all these like hardcore I'm still wearing this death. I just realized that in my thing thought the like hardcore skeptics hardcore skeptics are now It's just interesting to watch and again until I see UFO. I'm gonna be skeptical Yeah, super skeptical, but it's interesting to watch the the gradual shift That's happening in people who are like big-time debunkers. There is like not like okay I think they're real and I don't blame him for say that I don't think they're real cuz it's like really what all your all there's still going off of like Just people saying it's real but the fact that the people saying it like Marco Rubio Coming out now. Did you see that shit right? But isn't it interesting? This is my observation What they're saying is they talk to people who say this Right, that's everybody. It's could including grush Grush is saying that He has access to information and he was aware of information He was aware of things that the public wasn't aware of and so he wants to Be a whistleblower because the public deserves to know about these things. Yeah, but he has no access to it Well Rubio said he talked to people in the government who said they had first hand Mm-hmm, right, but he talked to people who said they saw the thing under oath though, right? Right, but where are those people? Like I until those people are standing in front of the camera going I was on the spaceship Yeah, I met the entities they talked to me through telepathy Yeah, I think we might be close. They've got that hearing coming up and I and I and I know that I'm a lot of the or I like to believe that a lot of the sort of Careful wording of things right now is to protect people who worry that they'll get killed They have a sense of like shit, man They're gonna kill me if I tell you this but I said cuz he did it. I'm gonna come out and say it and You know, so they I think they feel like shit. We've got to be very very careful to protect these people I don't see any benefit for any Body in the government to go on statement Saying that they've talked to people within the US military who have seen UFOs. What's the benefit there? Like if it's not true, you're gonna look like the biggest dipshit on earth. You're gonna be ridiculed It's gonna ruin your career potentially as a politician So I don't see much of a benefit in them coming out and saying that stuff That's the part where it's like I can't trace the how Marco Rubio what's he gonna win the next time he runs? He's gonna be like I'm the guy who got tricked into thinking there was UFOs, right? Yeah, it has to hit sort of a wall of Public demand, you know where the public demands like hey, what is the enough people are talking about it? There's enough whether it's commander David Fraver or the New York Times article Jeremy Korbel all these different Different videos that get released where there's enough credible people talking about it that they have to kind of address it And if someone like a senator like Marco Rubio has a conversation with someone when they're saying yeah We have crashed UFOs and we have alien bodies and we're hiding it from the people Yeah, dude, and then that where it gets been going on for 80 years Here's the deal if you are a politician and you realize we've all been briefed on this shit and it is coming out And you you other people don't have the guts to come out and say it You realize to be the first politician who came out and told the truth now there is benefit there There's a lot of benefit and like the the courage to come out and like support whistleblowers because dude, I read an analysis Of it that's so creepy because it points out that U.S. Taxpayer money is being allocated to if it's true I'm saying our taxpayer money is getting allocated to Some organizations that are outside the control of the US government this is and has been doing it for 5060 years this is Unconstitutional like you can't do that like what does that mean that that means that there is a set? power structure within the government of truly like a secret right something and and that is like Be like you you it we're paying for it And and if you're benefiting from the technology if you're selling the technology to private contractors and Making money off of it like that like that's supposed to be for us Free energy, whatever it may be. Yeah, so that is where it's sinister sinister Also imagine if you're the government imagine if you're let's say the Air Force and you have control over some vehicle from another planet where you have if That the airport wants jets they don't make them They hire someone to make them right they have a military contractor that has all the engineers and no expertise and they hire You know all these people that actually make jets Right right they need a jet they buy a jet so if they acquire a spaceship They're not gonna hold on to it themselves. They don't have The people to fuck with this thing they're gonna bring it to the people that make those things They go hey you guys make the stealth bomber tell me what the fuck this is right Tell me what the fuck this is yeah, yeah, man, and and and can we make one and If we can't make one can we figure out how it runs yeah at least tell us how it runs Yeah, I have an idea. I heard that like Jeremy was on my podcast was talking about how It's apparently I'm sorry Jeremy if I'm misquoting you this is from me Mm-hmm obviously like so forgive me if there's a Error in the way I'm saying it but uh it like it's compartmentalized Yeah, so some of the reverse engineering people theoretically don't even know That they're looking at right that's what Bob Lazar said on my podcast. He said part of the problem is like science can't exist in a vacuum science is collaborative and The metallurgy guys weren't talking to the propulsion guys Oh, yeah, but he talked to anybody you had like an area where you're allowed to go and look at the vehicle and You know you were with your other teammate and everybody reported on everything that was said and done and yeah, man And it just it was too limited for them to ever really figure out in his belief at that time So we're talking about 1989 if what he's saying is true What he was saying was that they were bringing him to this area and he couldn't tell his wife He couldn't tell anybody where he was going and they were flying him to area s4 where they had this UFO they didn't have just one they had multiple ones and This sort of aligns with what grush was saying because I think rush would crush the saying is there's 12 of them they have 12 which is like For real for real or is this are you guys like sending money to Ukraine? You don't want me to know about so you're showing me this like that sounds so crazy Yeah, I don't I don't buy the distraction theory because it's like man the US government's been doing weird shit with money but here's a distraction what if it's what if is this is just an advanced drone program and What the uf's government is doing with his advanced drone program to? Obscure it they just start releasing UFO stuff and having whistleblowers come out that are actually intelligence agents And they come out and start talking about bullshit programs that don't even exist Right, you know like they just start fucking with the people online which they've done with other stuff sure I mean if you look at what they did with MK ultra just MK ultra alone you you should be at least you should go what? What did you do you guys set up whore houses where you dose the Johns and then film them through? through what is it with See-through Yeah Double size the government that's your tax dollars went for that that those were the fun days Valuable research do you get from dosing up some plumber looking to get his dick sucked? You know and give the guy a glass of water. It's got fucking acid in it You're in the CIA No fun that is you're in the CIA you're you're in like you're in the CIA you have infinite access to LSD They're just like letting you go into like brothels and like watch people fuck like wow well not on that you're a puppet master You're literally giving people crazy powerful psychoactive drugs against their will and you're Watching them and you're learning how to manipulate people's behavior, and that's the Tom O'Neill the book chaos It's all about MK ultra doing that with Manson and Manson doing that with his followers Do you know the gifted and talented program conspiracy theory connected no gate theory were you ever in gifted and talented no you know it's a one of my favorite current conspiracy theories and Admittedly conspiracy theory in other words. It's just cool. I don't necessarily believe it But basically the idea like like the gate program Apparently and I looked it up and it there does seem to be some connection was sort of funded by the feds who like the Like it was definitely somehow involved with the government basically not where it goes in a conspiracy land the idea is They wanted to find people kids early on you demonstrated certain traits that then They could hire to work in intelligence grooming program for intelligence basically and so all these like and again I just love these things. I'm like if they're real or not. It's still cool. So there's all these like Aspects of people who are in it like an occipital bulb like people who are in it like if you like they have this bump On the back of their head weird marks like they're like when them Navigation things or a serious XM radio antenna on your roof of your car You got a fucking antenna back there No, it's it's yeah, it's maybe it's an implant maybe they give you that implant that's where we go That's where it goes because they'd spot for it would make you drink this weird pink shit They would like do this hearing weird pink shit. Yeah, I mean Jamie I bet you could find the whole list of like commonalities and people in the program and it's like Interesting like the hearing they had to you would have to do this hearing test before you got in You would be in a windowless room or a room where the windows are covered up with a dude Giving you and I that's how I got in giving you Giving you an IQ test the IQ test had the ESP cards in it along with a lot of other weird shit And then what would happen is because generally like smart people sometimes or kids who meet these things are underperforming Your parents are fucking delighted. So you hear from school They're like actually your kid isn't a complete fucking idiot as it turns out He's got a very high verbal IQ and we think we should put him in this special program Instantly to be a fed. Well, yeah, I mean you're not fit. You're not asking like wait, what is the program? Well, who came up with the idea for the program? Yes, like my kids smart. Yes Put them in there. They care about kids Duncan. Yeah, just want to get those smarter kids. Yeah Yeah, we're gonna put a lot of funding to making them smarter and smarter And we're gonna set up careers for them. Yeah, right in Nicaragua and they'll never know They'll just think like when we came up to them in the college They got a scholarship for that we provided and we're like, hey we love your dissertation Can we talk to you about this really cool job? You'll never know you've been groomed your whole life to be in it again Probably not true but interesting an interesting like new conspiracy that like a lot. It's really it's really interesting I hope people out there research it for me What I that's what drives me nuts about censorship online Is that the really dumb ones that are obviously not real I think are also amazing. Yes, I think they're fun Do there's some people that are just out of their fucking minds and then there's things that come up sometimes So you like wait a minute? how did that slip by Mainstream news like how why is this not a subject that everybody's kind of tweaking about? Right, but every now and then like the hollow earth one. I was like that is so ridiculous. That's so ridiculous, but It's still ridiculous still ridiculous, but then they discover there's three times as much water Inside the earth yeah, then there is in the oceans. I got so excited about that one till I looked into it What is it apparently the water is like compressed sadly into the soil in other words? Now I could be wrong about that, but I can remember specifically the disappointment that swept over Oh, I thought they were saying there's like oceans Under the surface what I read is that a lot of the water they're talking about has been compressed into soil soil moist oil dude I When I one night when I was super high like I emailed a famous geologist About like Caverns under the earth, and I'm like my god like like Literally, there's like massive Empty spaces down there bigger than the Grand Canyon like could that be true I just could I just still can't I didn't understand it. I don't know the answer for sure, but you know so look look at like we're studying the plumes of Europa is it Europa to find organic life we say within the ice of Europa There could be organic life Here it is Sometimes scientists thinks Earth's oceans formed when icy comets hit the planet But new research suggests a different origin for the oceans They simply seeped out of the center of the earth The finding published in science suggests that a reservoir of water hidden in the earth's mantle is more than 400 miles below the surface Try to refrain from imagining the expanses of underground seas all this water three times the volume of water on the surface Is trapped inside the rocks? sad So in this rock is water, so that's what it's saying a piece of since synthesized Ringwood I the blue mineral may contain oceans worth of water in the earth's mantle Okay, but it's in the rock right so it's like it's not water Stop lying like that's like saying all the people on earth Consist of an ocean of water because most people like what are we like 70% water? Yeah, right There's an ocean of water in people we just got to drain the water out of the people we got another ocean another ocean What do you say? That's not an ocean you have fucking rocks you have wet rocks No one's going to your fucking article if you say there's wet rocks under the earth You got to say there's an ocean But it's three times as much water in these rocks as there is in the ocean, but yeah, but it's in rocks It's not water unless it's water like you put in a glass. No then shut the fuck up. That's not water You got rocks, but but don't destroy this from each out, but but just Think about the fact that life Life grows in so many places right and if there were voids within the earth and there was like some kind of heat source Whatever it is and it gets hotter down there and maybe some water didn't just make it into the I mean caves are fucking wet Right, so if there were water down there a heat source and also if there was like some flow of water seeping in from You know the surface theoretically Theoretically some life form could evolve down there just like we did Theoretically it might not be like advanced like us. It might just be some kind of like insane fungus my Youngest really loves horror movies. We watch horror movies together. Yeah, and we watched The Descent the other day That's a great movie I forgot how fun that movie is that's so fun. There's a scent to kind of sucks. Yeah, but is that one was it shit? Oh my god the setting. Oh, there's so much in it They set it up the movie. It's like all right off the jump like oh my god Hot cavers hot cavers hot cavers that fucking squabble with each other. It's fucking great It's a fucking I highly recommend it. It is one of my faves like it's like it scratches a real Specific itch for me. It's like I love hollywood shit and then like it just you've got it's on hollywood That's caverns. It's like it's I mean it's beings that evolved in those caverns I mean there's a lot of ridiculous shit in it like they're Grabbing elks and dragging them into the hole and eating them there like yeah, the whole thing's so dumb You can't have a bunch of like weird like mutants living under your forest and so many of them to The but I don't I think it was like another senator talking about the possibilities what these UFOs are One of them said could be coming from an ancient civilization. That's just choosing to reveal itself to us now This was a government official saying this. Oh, I wanted to bring this up Michael Knowles I didn't watch the video, but it was one of those things were the the headline of the YouTube video It's like the on the Michael knows Nola show. It's something about Aliens are demon confirms aliens are demonic Please yeah, but he was talking to somebody that like I think he's talking to Lou Elizondo Right who is a part of the program the a tip program one of those yeah, fo research programs But there was this video about it Do I need to make a feature-length documentary called What is a demon to teach Matt Walsh blog that extraterrestrial aliens aren't real I would watch it Hmm so Matt Walsh thinks are the other righties? Duking it out with each other is out this is I don't know but please make the documentary he thinks they're not real So Michael Knowles is saying that extraterrestrial aliens aren't real he thinks they're demons Intelligence officials now confirm that UFOs of non-human origin have been recovered and studied at this point the only reason to discount these reports in your Own preconceived is your own preconceived belief that aliens can't exist the evidence is really overwhelming now And he's not wrong. He's not wrong, but it's in here's the thing the evidence that we can get a hold of is all Anecdotal it's all people talking about these things Until it passes that I'm on this huh same. I'm interested, but I'm not believing you yet I've been I Know if you know about MK ultra if you know that they did that and they didn't get punished for it those people just died So what happens does it evolve or does it stop right most things evolve like most when you go back to Eisenhower Warning about the industrial the military industrial complex like he was warning about it then it was an emerging thing Yeah, he was worrying about well that evolves to now control the government right right so does the MK ultra and mind control does that evolve Of course it evolves. It doesn't stop dead there. No, I was going to get people captivated I would start talking about all these things that we have all these fucking amazing crafts that we've recovered But not show you jack shit I have a lot of people talking about it, and maybe this is just a preliminary step to showing you the stuff Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm wrong, and these are like real patriots. I think the American public needs to know people have lived and died and not had this information and it's your duty as a patriot is your duty as a human being as A citizen of Earth to let everyone know that we're being visited also You might be covering up for the military industrial complex Let's figure out a way to make hypersonic drones that look and behave like something that was created on another planet I mean yeah as they funded these researchers under some guys of a hedge-phone company and yeah Flown in all these physicists and give them a lot of money shut the fuck up and top-secret clearance Which you can't violate or you get put in jail and next thing you know You're developing some sort of magnetic propulsion system that can rocket things through the sky Silently instantaneously turn on a dime yeah, well you know man I think maybe that some of what I know I'm doing with my skepticism in this regard is I just don't want to be disappointed of course And I don't want to it's like I so will love it if my kids get to live in a world where aliens aren't even weird Yeah And I want that world so so much that it's definitely gonna give me some confirmation bias And it's definitely gonna like warp Because it's so easy to see in something what you want there to be mm-hmm, but I just I like I don't I and I'm dumb, but I can't quite Access the real the benefit like I think there's other ways to lie about your secret weapons Program then by like gaslighting senators under oath. I feel like that is such a dangerous thing to do and So to me it's unless you think that senator's a dork you want to get rid of them. I'll tell Fetterman anything It was you always tell them anything until I do anything. I tell them I'm an alien I'm an alien we came to contact you basically had Meetings with him. He's an alien Fuck Fetterman isn't coming forward with this shit though, man. It's like I should be he's got the information He's just a coward you think fat. They told Fetterman. Yes. That's why he's pretending to be a Person who doesn't talk that good dude. He has too much information the best way to like not be credible Like I don't want to be involved Yeah, man, I mean he would be a great person to like leak We told him have you heard this theory being talked about are the aliens us UFOs may be piloted by time-traveling humans Yeah, I've heard that before I heard recent. I was trying to find where I saw it but recently like in the last few days I saw someone I think they were in the government saying Government a similar version to this Yeah That there is a date that they have been told and that if they tell everyone the date it will freak people out So there's a fight about talking about this date about when time travel gets invented Know that they think that these aliens are Whatever are us coming back to warn us and they were like this if they do About a time and fuck it up. Oh about thing that we might do They're very very vague and the thing I read about maybe it's like Ukraine. I mean Jesus Christ But dude also if you do you see Greta Thunberg went to Ukraine now to say how dare you did she go there to scold them? No, she went there to be a part of the Illuminati. They fucking welcomed her with open arms. Oh Zalensky talked to her. Holy. She's like she's a kid man. What are we doing? It's so bizarre Did you have this strange kid on the spectrum? they fly around the world as the Spokesperson for climate change and the the create this strange part about it is it's like this is not a person that most people think is The person they want to hear talk about this. Yeah, who do you want to hear talk about this? You want to hear like a rational? educated scientist that's warning you about the very specific details of what human beings and our Our pollution is doing to the world like here's your science and graphs and data instead You're sending a kid that like got famous for saying how dare you? How dare you robbing us of our future? You know, it's a He on one level not Thunberg that's I mean the whole thing straight the whole thing you just showed is like dystopian. It's strange but but on one level I get I know I know that scientists are So are scientists? Scientists are not comedians, you know what I mean? And I and I know that like Many of them want to convey The shit they're discovering to people who didn't go to graduate school, right and they need a mouthpiece Like you need someone to speak for them and and and they just keep fucking it up because it's like you generally like the mouthpieces it seems like They're condescending like you need a mouthpiece. That's like able to be like To not make the people that they're talking to Feel like they're being talked down to right? That's how they they hold authority The best way to hold authority is to make someone on the defensive make them feel stupid for questioning this And it's how you hold that authority So it's anti-science like and you know again you go back and look at like Tesla or fucking Isaac Newton What a lunatic. He was a lunatic. He had mercury in his hair. He was studying the temple of Solomon You know what? I mean? In his hair yes, he did and and and he is what do you mean by that? He won the hair samples when they did his little I guess in his laboratory Mercury so you had mercury poisoning mercury poisoning and this is Newtonian physics, and it's like this This is new look at Tesla He's like fucking like on a date thinking about Faust seeing a vision of like Alternating current engine right these are the people who warped society Permanently there was nothing tame domesticated or normal about them like imagine if you if like I invite you over I'm like Joe come into my I want to show you something working on It's you know the temple of Solomon from the Bible. I think it's a code. I think it's a code I could use to crack The source of all reality and I I feel like it has something to do with mercury. I'm just not sure what so I've been pouring mercury onto this replica of Temple of Solomon you would be really worried about me. I would be worried about this is Isaac Newton And and you know when so it's just weird this like This thing is emerged with the domesticated normal scientist or that like you know Science is somehow like filled with just very normal completely professional people when the history of it seems to be littered with maniacs maniacs Maniacs yeah, and not maniacs who failed in their pursuit but using the system discovered truth that changed history forever It's really weird man It's well We always want to think of a person as only being the thing that is so egregious about them or bizarre about them But there there are a lot of things Right you know I mean that like when they talk about Like geniuses That also were kind of crazy and did something fucked up like we want to concentrate on that crazy thing like wasn't Tesla in love With a pigeon yeah, wasn't somewhere sure about pigeon yeah Yeah, we want to concentrate on the the weird You know a social aspects of them. They were all very bizarre and how they interacted with people That's right string of bad relationships They had bad relationships Duncan and ignore all the shit that they said that doesn't fit in to What like makes sense like his debt Tesla's death beam idea the idea that he could like create some Resonance and send a death beam to blow shit up or like probably good well I mean you should see that I feel like we already talked about this I we've talked about everything they've you seen the myth busters where they make One of these Tesla resonance engines and put it on a fucking bridge And they're they're not expecting anything happen, and then the whole bridge starts fucking vibrating Like yeah, that's right. I remember that and they turned it off Like they didn't they didn't continue the experiment because the bridge started like making some weird shaking thing like oh well fuck You know man, I just think you're smarter than Tesla this didn't work. This is just quackery. He's open up a gate to hell Do you remember the event horizon one of my favorite science fiction horror movies of all time? It's a great movie. It's about these people that use this time warp You know they fold space time in order to travel and when they do one one ship disappears so another ship goes to look for that ship and By doing that you open up a gate to hell by doing that Fold over space time so you can get straight from one point to another point instantaneously far across the galaxy haunted spaceship gate to hell and so everybody everybody has to deal with the literal hell like Latin speaking demons, and it's a fun movie I mean which came first doom or event horizon which came first. I believe doom I believe doom because that's doom. Do you know where the name? Doom came from no Came from the scene from the color of money with Tom Cruise color of money when Tom Cruise is a pool hustler and he goes to this pool hall and he's watching this like the number one player play and The number one player is this cool-looking black dude, and he looks at me goes what you got in that case? Because he's got a pool case he goes in here, and he opens it up doom Cool, and that's what doom was for the game Community that was doom for the game industry when they what do you got in that box when this box? We got doom and that's what it was I mean when John Carmack and John Romero when they released doom id software that was a fucking game-changer 3d game first-person shooter you're running around and there's fucking demons And you're firing rockets at them is incredible cool. It was incredible What a great idea military attack on hell? It's just such a that game is so fun all that it's so dark see if you find that scene from the color of money See if you can find it But that's why they called it doom and which one came first. I don't know I don't know but I love Here yeah, what you got in there here Do Oh Meanwhile that is that cue that he opens up. That's a production cue. It's not even a great cue. It's a jot It's supposed to be a balabushka Which is a handmade cue by this guy who is the master of? The great cues like when you go back to guys like yeah, see that's that's not that's Eddie Cohen's Eddie Cohen is like a real modern day Elite pool cue maker and he made a version like a color of money version But that's the that's the cue that Joss made and you could buy it. It's not like a I mean It's a good playing cue it plays good, but it's not a balabushka Balabushka was a handmade cue by this guy who was a master yeah Who yeah, I mean they would ages would he would age his wood for years and slowly turn them down? And you know you'd have like stacks of wood that had been Air drying for seven years before you cut them into cues Like his stuff was like it's like a violin. It's like you're buying a strat of areas like that's that's a real balabushka dude, I just read this thing online of like coders making fun of The shit that pops up for like hackers. Oh, yeah, because they know everything they're doing like yeah You know that that's when you have very deep knowledge or something because like in a million years I would never even think like I wonder if that really is a good cue that's that That's a good cue to play with but to rep it to have that say Eddie gave me a balabushka and show that like Bleh That's garbage that what that was was they made a deal with a pool cue manufacturer Joss, which is a they make me very good cues. Don't make get me wrong like Mike Siegel Mike Siegel is one of the greatest players of all time Played with the Joss. I mean they make amazing cue they play good, but they're made it with a computer It's made you know with machines, right? Yeah, the the the ends are rounded That's a that's an old balabushka so that what that is is a title list and what a title list is is a house cue so you buy a house cue and A lot of those really old house cues from like the 50s They converted them into pool cues like two-piece cues that you could bring with you That was a very popular cue because it was it's a full splice Meaning the contact wood to wood contact of the two joints is like it's the the old method that they used to use That's cool, man. It looks like a very powerful wand and Diablo Yeah Well, it's like you were playing not just with something that played well But you were playing with something that was art right? It's it's functional art It was made by a master is made by in George Balabushka's case You know some guy had been making them in the very beginning Yeah, and Willie Moscone played with one likes the great players played with them But there's so many guys who make amazing pool cues now. It's like It's really a matter of taste and most of the players in fact now are playing with carbon fiber. Anyway What is the like I this is probably dumb question because I don't know enough about pool, but what like if Two equally matched players are playing and one of them has one of those and another one has just like a basic Pool cue. Mm-hmm. How much of an advantage? Would the person with a really nice none none no advantage. It's all about the Archer not really the the the the the pool cue once you become accustomed to it, you know what it does So like you every pool cue has a certain amount of flex Every pool cue has a certain amount of weight to it. There's a balance They're all different But once your arm and your stroking arm becomes accustomed to the balance Then it can accurately determine the amount of force that it has to apply to the ball in order to get the proper Rotations of the ball for it to line where you need to lie it land your next shot All right So it's it's a matter of making the ball and then moving the other ball to the other shot and any cue can do that It just you have to know what that cue does and then you have to compensate for what that cue does stiffer cues Have a different reaction the more flexible cues, right? Dude, it's such a you know what man with pool That's one that's got a pull golf Pool they it's got this like Man, yeah, you could just see how like you would just there was a I wish I could it's so sad I can't remember the name of this club because they're greener was incredible Sorry, they have a pool table in there and you know, I like I we would fuck around which is never fun for you I'm sure because I'm horrible, but no it's always fun. The uh, you know, I just found I see how addictive it is I like just learning how to do one thing and then you get stuck in this repetitive Trying to get it to work, but it's so The difference it's mind-cleansing It's like archery in that regard that when you're lined up on a shot The only thing you're thinking about is that shot right it helps me a lot with stress because I have so many things going on Simultaneously that that would require my attention that if I have an activity whether it's archery Martial arts or pool where you cannot think of anything other than that activity while you're engaging in it It's very beneficial clears your mind Yeah, man. I yeah, I need shit like that if I don't have something like that and it's such a relief when your mind gets Grabbed by something. It's so great. That's why video games do have a role. There's a there is a good role in video games Yeah, the problem is they're so good. They're so addictive. They pull you in so far Brian Simpson was explaining Diablo and he started showing the new Diablo on the screen and he's explaining how it all goes down And I was just seeing my my fucking time getting sucked away into this goddamn game, dude It is and I can't do it. This is also like if you're into games right now this is like the Apocalypse because like the new Zelda came out and then Blizzard puts out the new fucking Diablo And it's like they're both in their own way just spectacular and and also, you know how it is, man If you've if you started with an Atari 2600 and now you are like getting to interact with like yeah I started with pong son What is this? That's a cutscene that seems from Diablo. Oh, wow But the cutscenes are just like a little movie you just watch a little movie, you know I mean the game one day will probably like this dude Jamie. We I'm spoiler spoiler spoiler If you're playing Diablo, it's this don't listen. Can you? Find the cutscene from Diablo where the dude is getting eaten by wolves Spoiler don't watch this if you're into Diablo Wow Really This was actually uncomfortable we're gonna let's end with this cuz I gotta get out of here. Yeah, we gotta show soon Okay, so why You might have to yeah, there you go My sister Diablo Oh The ruination of sanctuism And you keep down only zealots and fools are completely certain If we are to be safe, oh It will be by your okay. Okay. Okay, that's enough All right, let's wrap it up Duncan, I love you to death you do the best you're fun Thank you so great being able to represent science with you today. Yeah, I feel we did a good job. I think so hail science Hail Science Everybody welcome to the comedy food truck podcast This is John and you know the end of the world is gonna happen on Friday and it's evidenced by the big movies breaking out Both Barbie and Oppenheimer, which is really a true sign of the one movie about how to end the world
