1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: This podcast.

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 2: Hey everybody, welcome to the exclusive pod. This is an

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: amazing story. But NASA has confirmed that a massive dam

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 2: in China has actually affected the speed of the Earth's rotation.

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 2: This is how big this dam is. It's called three

6
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: three gorges. Man, I've been out with three gorgees myself,

7
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: you know mine.

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 3: Actually not all at the same time.

9
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 2: Oh, Brian Gorge, great coach. The Gargantian energy generating project,

10
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: which generates a huge amount of power, is messing with

11
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: the way that the world moves. Now, look, don't freak out,

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: because it's not affecting it that much. So the three

13
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 2: gorgeous dam is capable of holding forty cubic kilometers of water,

14
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: roughly equal to ten it's really in gallons. The dam

15
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 2: that stands at two thousand and three hundred meters long

16
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: and it's one hundred and eighty five meters high.

17
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: Wow.

18
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 2: So a doctor Dr chow is his name, has found

19
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 2: that the impacts right, This is how big. This the

20
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: mass of water that's going through this dam and used

21
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: to generate power. Obviously it's very very small though, but

22
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: it's increased. It's increased the length of a day on

23
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 2: Earth by point six microseconds.

24
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: Wow, I knew it. I thought the days were going faster,

25
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 1: didn't you, Like I look at the time like a

26
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: nine pm already.

27
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, but this because this makes it sound even worse.

28
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 2: Though for reference, this amounts to a bit more than

29
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 2: three days over the entire age of the universe.

30
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: Do you know what though? Fits The last time I

31
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: think this happened was when they had the Boxing Day tsunami.

32
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: Remember when that happened, and the jolt to the Earth

33
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: span up that day, So change time on that day

34
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: because it's.

35
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: Interesting, let's span up that day, span up all.

36
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: Day when it's span span the globe. Yeah, it's spun

37
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: it and span it all in the same time. So

38
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: it threw it on as taxis. It's oh my god.

39
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 2: The scary thing about generating power now is that with

40
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: AI coming in now, we are going to have to

41
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 2: generate so much more power. They're saying now that they're

42
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: going to be able to generate power up in space.

43
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: So this is where you were talking about this before.

44
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 2: But Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos with their space missions

45
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 2: and sending satellites and that into space, this is where

46
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: they're beginning. They're going to become even richer, because this

47
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: is just an area that we were just we need

48
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: to generate more power.

49
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: And then why can you expY?

50
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 3: Do you need.

51
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 2: The AI? You uses so much power.

52
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: For cars to power them.

53
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 2: All I want to do is turn the air conditioner

54
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 2: on when it's forty degrees. Hell, if you want to

55
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 2: get an answer.

56
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: Every time I need some rash, explain it. You got

57
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 1: to burn through a lot of film.

58
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 3: Stop going you stop using it all the time. Do

59
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 3: you know what it feels like? AI is now AI

60
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 3: and all these people like mister Musk and Bezos and

61
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 3: all those people and all these changes in the world.

62
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 3: It feels like Facebook was to me all those years ago.

63
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 3: I remember my agent said to me, you're really going

64
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 3: to need to get a Facebook account. I thought, oh no,

65
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: I'm not going to need anything like that.

66
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: Why I that when I got MySpace.

67
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: So it feels like I've been avoiding all this stuff.

68
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,119
Speaker 3: I don't know anything about it, and I really am

69
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 3: going to have to learn.

70
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: The chances of you catching up from now don't start now, Okay, Richie,
