I fully understand. I've seen 28 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 3: some really cool things from AI where you can load 29 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 3: in a photograph. Say, say it was a baby picture 30 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: of you and your mother, right, or you know, maybe 31 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 3: it was your first steps or something, right, somebody happened 32 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 3: to take a picture. I'm just imagining, you know, maybe 33 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 3: in Mark's case, something that was in black and white, 34 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 3: or you know, for me, something that had kind of 35 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 3: that weird orange hue from the nineteen seventies. 36 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: So this photo you could. 37 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 3: Load in there and then AI could potentially make it 38 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 3: come to life and look like you're actually watching a 39 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 3: home video rather than just a photograph. 40 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: That's cool, that's Neat'd be. 41 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 3: Like, oh, it takes me back to that time I 42 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 3: was with my mom and this is what it looked like, 43 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 3: and this is this is amazing, right, But that's not 44 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 3: what everybody's using it for. 45 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: They're using it to do like not great things. You know. 46 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,399 Speaker 3: So you've got recently deceased public figures that are being used. 47 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: To turn out just slop. 48 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: In fact, here's what to here's what Zelda Williams said, 49 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: to watch the legacies of real people condense down to 50 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 3: this vaguely looks and sounds like them. So that's enough, 51 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 3: just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop. 52 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 3: Puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art. You're making 53 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 3: disgusting overprocessed hot dogs out of the lives of human beings, 54 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: out of the history of art and music, and then 55 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: shoving them down someone else's throat, hoping they'll give you 56 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 3: a little thumbs up and like it gross. 57 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm kind of with her. 58 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 3: Is there a certain sanctity to someone that has that 59 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 3: has gone, someone that has been lost? I hate the 60 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 3: idea of somebody using the likeness of Robin Williams to 61 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 3: do something that just isn't him. 62 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: I don't like it at all. 63 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 3: George Carlin, you can make George Carlin say all kinds 64 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: of things that he would never say. And how many 65 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 3: times have we seen George Carlin used. Somebody will post 66 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 3: a video and like, George Carlin saw this coming, and 67 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 3: it will of course, they'll take a segment out of 68 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 3: his stand up that matches whatever their perception is, whatever 69 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: their whatever their biases, whatever the narrative is that they 70 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 3: want to convey at the time, they'll take that clip 71 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 3: and they'll go George Carlin nailed it. 72 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 2: Now you can have George Carlin saying that you want. 73 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: You're gonna have George. 74 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 3: Carlin talk about the you know, aliens colonizing the moon, 75 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: and George Carlin nailed it. We got to stop the 76 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: aliens from colonizing the moon. What And I'm using absurd examples, 77 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 3: but you get the point. Anyway, I'm one hundred percent 78 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 3: behind the Families on this. I wish Open Aie would 79 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 3: take action. What I would rather have is, instead of 80 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 3: an opt out, I'd like to have an opt in 81 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 3: in the same way that if you're a performer, you 82 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 3: might opt in to using cameos so you can try 83 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 3: to make some money on the side, right, so that 84 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 3: people people can only access you if you want to 85 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:26,799 Speaker 3: be a part of that. 86 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: That's what I would like to see. An affirmative. 87 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: What would you call it, permission right, affirmative permission to 88 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 3: use their likeness or the families affirmative permission rather than 89 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 3: this whole.

I also think that President Trump 300 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 3: at Mark Snacker like this. I think President Trump has 301 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 3: a lot of fun. I just don't think people get 302 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 3: his sense of humor. I think he's I think he 303 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 3: loves to troll people. And what's that got to do 304 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 3: with me? Because you're very serious news man. 305 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: Okay. 306 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 6: And I think when the President says something like we 307 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 6: should jail JB. Pritzker and Illinois is very terrible guy, 308 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 6: I think it's like, Wow, the President just said that 309 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 6: we could that we should throw a sitting governor in 310 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 6: jail for disagree with him. 311 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: But I think Trump's just trolling. I think that's his 312 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: sense of humor. Okay, see, I knew, what what do 313 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 3: you want me to say? I mean, no, you know, 314 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 3: you have to kind of put that stuff in perspective, 315 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 3: in a historical perspective. I don't disagree with you, but 316 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 3: I think if that's your sense of humor, boy, what 317 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 3: a platform to really mess with people. 318 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 2: It's like having Don Rickles. Yes, that's it. Who doesn't 319 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 2: love an insult comic? That's it. That's exactly what it is. 320 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 2: See that. I think that's his sense of humor. 321 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 3: And then when people take him too seriously and he 322 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 3: starts to irritate him, then he's like, you know what 323 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 3: I mean, Tate. 324 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: I think that's what it is, all right. 325 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: There is a new trend happening right now. It's called 326 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 3: bluetooth thing. I thought that this was like sharing headphones 327 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 3: or something. 328 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: It's not. It will kill you. 329 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 6: You're gonna find out just how you're probably going to 330 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,439 Speaker 6: die next.

Okay, that's right, Yeah, 338 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 6: which is that's pretty in line. 339 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 3: I think my I think I have Hulu Live and 340 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 3: I got Hulu Live, Disney Plus and ESPN with that, 341 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 3: and I think that's about. 342 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 2: The same price. 343 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 3: So I still feel like YouTube is a little pricer 344 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: than that. But I think mine's with ads too though. 345 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 3: So anyway, so I did a little more investigating, But 346 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 3: that whole YouTube premium with no ads for fourteen. 347 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 6: Doesn't sound too bad. It's great. Yeah, I might let 348 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 6: me see what we can do with that I have. 349 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 6: I'm cheap, though, is the problem just a cheap skate? Well, 350 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 6: I know we had something in common. I use YouTube 351 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 6: a ton and so I've all they have a lot 352 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 6: of music on YouTube as well, and I'll put it 353 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 6: on while I'm writing, and few things are as irritating 354 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 6: as a commercial that stops the music. 355 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 3: Well, the premium that Sam's talking about, there's no commercials 356 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 3: on the music. 357 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 2: Yep, gotta get it. 358 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, no, I've I've gone through my all the 359 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 7: writing for my PhD program and everything. I'll listen to 360 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 7: low fi music and I'll put on ten hour mixes 361 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 7: and no commercials ever interrupt. 362 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: It's so nice. That's great. Wait a minute. 363 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 3: When you say low five music is like people that 364 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 3: recorded records onto their YouTube or something. 365 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 7: But with low fi music, it's like, you know, you could, 366 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 7: you could. It has the warmth of of com on. 367 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 7: It's it's basically like just beat like nice beats to 368 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 7: with the warmth of old vinyl. 369 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 2: Mark he's the kind of guy that calls it a 370 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: graphic novel. I do, that's what that's much. 371 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 6: You listen to some vibey, old mellow crap is what 372 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 6: you do? 373 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 2: You listen to stoner music. Well, I'm sitting there writing endlessly. 374 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, all right, so you're just a basically you're tripping. 375 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 2: It's tripping music. I got you. It's smooth mellow. I'll 376 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: dig some up for you. I'm done with it. 377 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 3: Look sometimes when i'm prepping, I'll put on some smooth jazz. 378 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 3: So I mean, I use obviously the iHeart Radio app, 379 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 3: you know, because pay the bills. But you know that's 380 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 3: what I do. 381 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 2: Throw a little smooth jazz on there like that. 382 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 3: Oh, bad news. I don't know if you guys got 383 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 3: the memo, but this is really tragic. 384 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 6: Uh. 385 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 3: Come to find out, it's moving. The misinformation is moving 386 00:19:54,280 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 3: faster than that it can possibly be corrected. And so 387 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 3: now as a result of misinformation and people thinking everything is. 388 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 2: Going to work out great for. 389 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 6: Those of you just joining us, we are all going 390 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 6: to die. 391 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is it. It's called bluetoothing. So in the 392 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 2: old days you. 393 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 3: Used to think, you know what, I think, I'd just 394 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 3: like to shoot up some heroin or some meth. But 395 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 3: now we've taken it a step further. 396 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: What do we do? You you have your friend shoot 397 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 2: up some. 398 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: Heroin and then you real quick draw their blood and 399 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 3: then you inject their blood into your body. 400 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 6: The goal is to share the high and split the cost. 401 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 6: That's a destation. Yep, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is gonna 402 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 6: shock you. Yeah, people are getting HIV. 403 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 2: Huh. 404 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 3: HIV cases rose tenfold over the last ten years in Fiji. 405 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 3: In South Africa, eighteen percent of drug injectors surveyed admitted 406 00:20:58,680 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: to blue toothing. 407 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: Tanzania. 408 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 3: In Pakistan, similar practices under the name like flash blooding 409 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 3: and hot spotting. 410 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 2: Who hot spotting is a good name. 411 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 3: They're doing this so they say, uh, hey, ding dong 412 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 3: blood has tens of thousands of HIV particles per drop. 413 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 2: And of course people aren't scerializing. They're pulling one needle. 414 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 3: I think what they're doing is they're putting the needle in, 415 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 3: and I don't know enough about needles, so I think 416 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 3: they're putting it in, and then they inject the the 417 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 3: math of the heroin, and then they withdraw the plunger 418 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 3: a little bit right away, right, so then you're getting 419 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 3: the blood heroin mix real fast and then giving it 420 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 3: to the other person, you know, same needle. 421 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 2: So they. 422 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 3: Then they're also having problems with people that are injecting 423 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 3: incompatible blood types. So even if they're not having a 424 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 3: viral transmission, like you're not you're not giving somebody hepatitis, 425 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 3: It was nice of you. Uh, then you are, they're 426 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 3: still transmitting other issues. Uh. They say it is the 427 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 3: perfect way of spreading HIV. So HIV is still at it. 428 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 6: PIGI did declared HIV outbreak earlier this year, and then 429 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 6: of course we cut off all of the foreign aid. 430 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: So take that. 431 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 3: Many users are unaware of the risk or they believe 432 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 3: that the high is worth it. In some cases, it's 433 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: simply because the misinformation about it is moving faster than 434 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 3: we can possibly get corrected information out there, Like, hey, 435 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 3: maybe don't do that because AIDS. Yeah, they say, we're 436 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 3: saying young kids dying from HIV, children who have been 437 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 3: involved in drug use and sex. Bluetoothing is one among 438 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 3: many factors driving the surge, along with the lack of 439 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 3: access to clean needles and high levels of unprotected sex. So, 440 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 3: you know, there are times that I just think that 441 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 3: things are too out of control in America. 442 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 2: I just think this is just nuts the stuff I'm seeing. 443 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 3: I turn on the TV and I just don't recognize 444 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 3: what my image of this country should be, and I 445 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 3: think this is just too much. But then I read 446 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 3: a story like this, and I go, God, we got 447 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 3: it pretty good. As much as we don't like some 448 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 3: things that, as much as we have got a lot 449 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 3: of things that are broken, you know, we're not We 450 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 3: have an issue with the misinformation and AIDS being passed 451 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 3: around and not being able to afford our own, our 452 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 3: own AID to try to get to people so that 453 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,479 Speaker 3: they stop doing that. I guess the question here is 454 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 3: not can we afford it, It's that we have the 455 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 3: willingness to try to get people clean needles because they're 456 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 3: going to shoot up anyway. 457 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 2: You know, that's always controversial. It just is what it is, 458 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 2: I guess kind of sickening. 459 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 3: There is there is a chance that as you are, 460 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 3: you're cruising on cruising on the freeway, right, you're on the. 461 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 2: Four O five and you're like, man, I'm haul and 462 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: tail in the four O five. Just kidding. 463 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 3: So let's say you're on I don't know any freeway 464 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 3: where you actually can move, and uh, you're a little concerned. 465 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 3: If you're like me, you're in the right lane, then 466 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 3: you're worried because, as you know, you drive speed limit. 467 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 3: Everybody else is you idiot? And then you're worried because 468 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 3: people can't merge or first they're getting ready to miss 469 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 3: their exit. So when does that ever stop somebody from 470 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 3: zipping across six lanes of traffic? 471 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 2: They do it anyway. Or if you're one of those maniacs. 472 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 3: You're in the hov lane and for some reason you 473 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 3: think it that you own it, just because you put 474 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 3: up a blow up doll in your passenger seat and 475 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 3: you're trying to get away with something.

I've 505 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 2: been a listener since way back in the Art Bell days. 506 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 3: I was going to say, that's how this, that's how 507 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 3: my proselytizing started, is that I was talking about Art 508 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 3: Bell and uh and. 509 00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 2: And Coast to Coast. 510 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 3: I said, now, George Norriy doesn't I said, you really 511 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 3: got a listen to. George is amazing and such a 512 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 3: good show. I just love it. 513 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: This allows your imagination to run wild. Oh I love 514 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 2: it so much. 515 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 3: Oh wait, that said, Imagine you're driving down the freeway 516 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 3: and you see somebody and you think, what can I 517 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 3: do to really irritate them? And so you cut them 518 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 3: off like the like is normal for somebody that's really 519 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 3: trying to aggravate someone else. 520 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 2: Maybe you flip them the bird whatever it is. 521 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 3: I mean, they looked at you funny, right, So it 522 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 3: makes perfect sense that you would react in such a way. 523 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 2: But have you considered. 524 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 3: Putting a political bumper sticker on your car, that will 525 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 3: really irritate them. So if you run into somebody who's 526 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 3: driving poorly, like you got some jerk who's cutting people off, 527 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 3: whatever it is, they make you mad. Come to find out, 528 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 3: a study was done and it shows that if you 529 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 3: see someone driving poorly who has the bumper stick around 530 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 3: there car supporting the opposite party of what you support, 531 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 3: it will irritate you way more. You are far more 532 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 3: likely to honk and you would have a like your 533 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 3: blood pressure would go up. However, if you see somebody 534 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 3: driving poorly but they have a bumper sticker that coincides 535 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 3: with the party that you support, you're more likely to 536 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 3: ask for forgiveness. 537 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 2: Let me see. 538 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 3: Sample skewed younger and more democratic effects needed testing in 539 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 3: real word driving simulators in a broader population. 540 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 2: I think that's probably entirely true. So I want you 541 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 2: to think about this. 542 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 3: Somebody's cruising along and at twenty seventeen Prius.
