This one he just got caught up, 169 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: you know, and it was just a bad look. So 170 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: he got away with the first one, and so Karma 171 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: had to do a mate good and we're gone. Yeah, 172 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: it's like one of those like stories from the beginning 173 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: of Magnolia where it's just the guilt from the first 174 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: one finally catches up to him. All right, we're gonna 175 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, 176 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're 177 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 1: talking about today. We are talking about crowd crushes. Unfortunately, 178 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: because you know, the standard narratives of it being a 179 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: stampede have broken out. That's the way it was told 180 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: to me before I read the news story that there 181 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: was a stampede in Korea that killed over a hundred 182 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: and fifty people, I believe, And that's actually not what 183 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: happened here. What tends to ever happen in big crowd 184 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: deaths like this. So we're just gonna talk about, like, 185 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: you know, how how those things happen, and like the 186 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: media narrative that kind of misses the point. We're gonna 187 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: talk about Twitter's blue check marks. That's on everyone's mind 188 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: because they're apparently going to be for sale for the 189 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: first time, but maybe not actually for the first time. 190 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: And I think I believe our guest today is a 191 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: blue check mark, so we can talk to him about 192 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: how he bought his. You know, once you when you're 193 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: made of money, it's easy. We're gonna talk about fair 194 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: Moment product because those are making a sweep through TikTok 195 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: and are probably full of ship all of that plenty more. 196 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: But first storm, we like to ask our guests, what 197 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: is something from your search history? So I found this 198 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: just this morning. I was like, oh, this is a 199 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: perfect I am my search tristy. I have morning finger paint. 200 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: Morning finger painting. It's like, yeah, in my middle finger 201 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: when I wake up in the morning, it feels like 202 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: it's jammed almost. It feels like just like tensing it, 203 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: like flexing it hurts a little bit. Relaxing it even 204 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: like getting it up to like that that full stretch hurts. 205 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: And I was like it was wasn't going away. So 206 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, I'm forty forty years old now, 207 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: and they're just so you admit it. You admit that 208 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: though in the middle Yeah, I mean like, look at 209 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: it's okay to be forty and uh I there's just 210 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: like things like I got a shoulder thing that I 211 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: just sort of lived with now, and I was like, oh, 212 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: it's it's another thing. And I was like, well, maybe 213 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 1: I can look it up and see what it is. 214 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: And so I'm trying. I was looking up morning finger pain, 215 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: just like I look up all my ailments, and I'm 216 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: it could be tennanitis, Yeah, you can fix that, or 217 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: could be what's that thing called where your fingers get 218 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: all old and arthritis? Yeah, it could be arthritis like 219 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: the old peak. Yeah, And then you're just done. If 220 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: you got arthritis. Wait, so but why the morning? I 221 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: don't know, like what it It goes away throughout that 222 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: works itself out. Basically, you're so young, so naive. Everything 223 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: hurts in the morning once you hit forty, man, start 224 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: your whole body. Let's throw my back out this morning, 225 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: just like making breakfast for my kids. Like it just 226 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: like up. I was like, oh no, yeah, Like the 227 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: wheels get greased throughout the day somehow moving around, but 228 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: in the morning like super painful. So it could be 229 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: those two things, or if narratives from TV shows have 230 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: taught me anything, there's probably an alternate personality that when 231 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: you go to sleep, takes over and starts doing things 232 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: while you're asleep with your little finger and shoulder. I 233 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: don't know exactly what it is, but it's spooky and 234 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,439 Speaker 1: scary and you you should start videotaping yourself when you 235 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 1: go to sleep. Yeah, okay, I love watching those, and 236 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: your kids are gonna be like the man in the 237 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: Tree came back last night me and you're like, what again? 238 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: Is that just yellow jackets or is that?

I feel like it's also 290 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: part of the movement of people like serving drinks out 291 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: of like those like jarring, like the Mason Mason Mason jars. 292 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, like that just that idea of like 293 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: we're just humble farm folks around here.

Yeah, yeah, I love a 296 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: Mason jar. Yeah. It is also a good way to 297 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: note your allegiance to the Mason's in a subtle way. 298 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: The pyramid with the eye above it, above you, above 299 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: your fireplace might not work. It used to be you 300 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: had to just hide your hand in your shirt pocket 301 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: like that in potos to let people know you're amazing 302 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: and now you can just bring out the jars.

It was put it put your just was 305 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: like back in the day, like if they were a 306 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: coat and it looked like they were reaching for something, 307 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: like just out their hand half in there.

Yeah. 309 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: One of my favorite jokes ever on Cracked. I think 310 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: it was a photo caption written by Jason Pargeon was 311 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: it was a painting of Napoleon doing that, and it 312 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: was something to the effect of like Napoleon was doing 313 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: that because he had to hold his dick, Like, what 314 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: is something that you think is underrated? I don't do this. 315 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: I was often anymore now that I have children, But 316 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: going to the bathroom at a party, okay. I love 317 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: stepping away from I guess I do, like so with 318 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: a kids parties where like I can put somebody else 319 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: in charge of my child and like I'm alone. I 320 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 1: just like at a party, like a house party. When 321 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: I would go to an adult you step away from everything. 322 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: You get to be alone for a second, and you 323 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: can kind of like check in. You've got your mirror. 324 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: It's just you in the mirror, and like you can 325 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: like see how drunk am I actually or like how 326 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: am I actually feeling? And you've got and that time 327 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: is yours.

All right, let's take a 360 00:19:49,480 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: quick break, we'll be right back, and we're back. And 361 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 1: there was a tragedy in Soul, Korea, a crowd crush. 362 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: A hundred and fifty young people died, and in the 363 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 1: aftermath of these I feel like you know, with the 364 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: astro world one, it was I think that the bizarre 365 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: conspiracy theories were extra quick and and they were like 366 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 1: it had something to do with Satan and Satan worshiping. 367 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: But usually the thing you hear is that it's a stampede, 368 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 1: that people are like kind of trampled under a stampede, 369 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: and it's it's a really kind of consistent misunderstanding or 370 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: like misreporting of what actually happens, because it's it's almost 371 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: always has to do with fluid dynamics and not anybody 372 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: in the crowd doing something violent like there. So the 373 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: New York Times article about this on Sunday, like that 374 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: was in the print version, like they had a quote 375 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: that was later a group of young men made a 376 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: hard shove down the hill, chanting push push, And that 377 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: was like kind of the it stands out because the 378 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: only real description of anyone like doing anything other than 379 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: all the other descriptions are people being like, we don't 380 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: know what happened, We have no idea, like no, like 381 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: nothing seemed off. And then like there there was a 382 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: some people were claiming there must have been a gas 383 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: leak or something. But first of all, it's like weird 384 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: a group of young like, how did they source the 385 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: fact that a group of young men like specifically in 386 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: this massive like wave of people was doing anything in particular. 387 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 1: But the truth is that generally these have more to 388 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: do with fluid dynamics and like basically, when crowd density 389 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: rises above four people per square meter and especially to 390 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: six or more, people get pressed together so tightly that 391 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 1: they begin to move together as one unit with waves 392 00:21:53,760 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: of pressure and release and yeah, greying a crowd like, yeah, yeah, 393 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: I've been in crowds that get like that. And it'll 394 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: be like as a shows about to start at a 395 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: concert or getting out and people are trying like a festival, 396 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: you're trying to like just people trying to move very 397 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: quickly from thing to thing. And it always is the 398 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: thing where when you're in it, you'll be like damn, 399 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: like you're shoulder to shoulder and like you're saying, you're 400 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: almost like I'm moving because everything else is moving, not 401 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: because I have the space to move or anything. It's 402 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: like I'm being pushed from behind. And usually you'll hear 403 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: people at one point go yo, stop pushing, stop pushing, 404 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: Like you feel that there's always this thing where people 405 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: feel that they're being pushed because of like you're saying 406 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: this like it's like watching traffic of it, like the 407 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: pressure building up and releasing like an accordion kind of. Yeah, 408 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: it's it's it's definitely freaky when you're in a situation 409 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: like that, but never like at the scale of you know, 410 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of people. Yeah. Yeah, there's this Business 411 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: Insider article that they released after using the word stampede 412 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: and early reports but they were like, yeah, no, we 413 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: interviewed this person, Keith Still, a UK crowd science and 414 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: risk ANALYSTICS, who said, I've not seen any instances of 415 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: the cause of mass fatalities being a stampede. People don't 416 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,479 Speaker 1: die because they panic. They panic because they're dying. So 417 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: you might hear people scream like push, push, because they're 418 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: like trying not to be like suffocated by on the 419 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: other side rout. But it's like the people in the back, 420 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: who are, you know, maybe hundreds of feet away from 421 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: anyone who's in real danger, might like just do a 422 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: small shove to like keep their balance or something, and 423 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: that builds up this like wave of people that can 424 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: have a multiplying effect, and it really just like comes 425 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: down to the people who are involved are in a 426 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: no win situation when you get that many people into 427 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: that small space and that there's nothing that they can do. 428 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: But the the way we try to make sense of 429 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 1: it because of like how you know, I've heard it 430 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: explained as like America's individualistic, so we can't like make 431 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: sense of anything that we can't blame on an individual person. 432 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: You could also like I've heard people say it's the 433 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: English language and the way that the English language is structured, 434 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 1: like it makes it so that we there has to 435 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: be someone doing an act there, Like we rarely just 436 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: talk about something happening. It's almost always like someone doing 437 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: the thing. But it's very misleading and it also lets 438 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 1: the organizers off the hook, like the you know, when 439 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: people try to sue over this, it's almost always thrown 440 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: out because of this misconception that did you guys watch 441 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: the Woodstock documentary? No I didn't. The yeah they and 442 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: if they talk about it's like, yeah, it's called train wreck, 443 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: and they talk about, uh, they interview somebody who's on stage, 444 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: and like somebody people who are like perform at these 445 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: things they see the that like fluidity of the crowd 446 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 1: and they talk about how when crowds start to get 447 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: like really rolled up, you'll just see like a group 448 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 1: of people in the crowd, all of a sudden, the 449 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: whole group just moves to the right six ft like 450 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: out of nowhere, and they don't know how it happened 451 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: or anything, but from the stage you can see it happened, 452 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 1: where it's just like everybody all of a sudden is 453 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: over and they'll kind of get picked up essentially and push. 454 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: And sometimes I think people just get I don't know. 455 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: I always picture it is like somebody getting stuck underneath 456 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: and then getting trampled to death. But I guess that's 457 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 1: not really it. I mean that that can happen too, 458 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: But I think the real the real dangers when people 459 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: get so compressed, you literally are just being squeezed out, 460 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: like you're like you're just being compressed to the point 461 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: you can't even breathe, and then you're just stock medieval 462 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: war where like at in the middle of it, everybody 463 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: is just that you can't even do anything right when 464 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: you bring up the organizers to Jack because like the 465 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: cops were saying, and so they were like they admitted 466 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: that they were there, but they weren't there for crowd control, 467 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: Like the hundred thirty some officers that were there were 468 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: there just to look out for criminal activity. So they 469 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: were like, yeah, I mean we actually had no we 470 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: have there's no real guide book like according to the 471 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: police force of like how to like what to do 472 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: for crowd management, because the other thing they point to 473 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: or this is like a their excuse was also it's like, well, 474 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: there's also no clear organizer.

But we we went to when my 550 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: son was young enough that he was in a stroller, 551 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: we went to the women's march and we were like 552 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: out in the street corner of this intersection basically where 553 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: it just people stretched swell from each side and it 554 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: just sort of like pushed into the middle and it 555 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: became packed enough that people couldn't see the stroller download 556 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: but everyone who's like looking for an empty space, all 557 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: they see is like this empty space, like everybody's trying 558 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: to move to that space, and then a stroller there, 559 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: So it's just like denser and denser. And then at 560 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: a certain point that we're all gonna march now. And 561 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: I was like, that's a bad idea, like we should 562 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: not even like let's just all go our separate ways, 563 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: Like this is bad. And I it was a situation 564 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: I was helpless in and I was like I shouldn't 565 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: have brought him here, Like this is a stake. Yeah, 566 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: that's really scary. Yeah, it just sounds like we have 567 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: to move past like the idea of like when there's 568 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people there, it's not like and then 569 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: some joker is gonna trigger a stampede. It's that when 570 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: there are so many people there, it has to be 571 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,719 Speaker 1: like like a second nature. They say, well, we have 572 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: to figure out how to like alleviate pressure from certain 573 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: points so we don't have a crush because we know 574 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: this tiny district or wherever this place is going to be, 575 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: that you figure out what to do for people's safety, 576 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: and like, yeah, in the you know, I think in 577 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: the cases of like astral World and Woodstock, it was 578 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: a lot of that stuff was clearly because of cost cutting, 579 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: just being like we don't want to pay that much 580 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: for security. And then this one seems like total just 581 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: absolute lack of preparation from like the municipality to like 582 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: understand what it means to have that many people in 583 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: the space and then you know, having a tragedy like 584 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: that right after. Yeah, and even going to the explanation 585 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 1: of the gas attack is like the because that's one 586 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: of the things we can conceive of as like an 587 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: invisible killer. But like like like world, someone was injecting 588 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: people and they were going down in the crowd. It's 589 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: like no people were suffocating or going to cardiac arrest 590 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: because of therush. Yeah, all right, let's talk Twitter. Ellen 591 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: has taken over and apparently once users with blue check 592 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: marks to pay around twenty dollars a month to keep 593 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: their verification status lest they be cast aside to the 594 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: faceless masses with US normies. The blue checks will allegedly 595 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: have ninety days to subscribe, and the Twitter employees have 596 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: until November seven to figure this out or they will 597 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 1: be fired. According to Elon Musk, he seems like a 598 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: cool boss, great leader, great leader, great leader, great genius, genius, genius. Yeah. 599 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: I guess they have a thing called Twitter Blue, which 600 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: is like an optional four ninete a month subscription that 601 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: unlocks additional features, and they're just going to transition that 602 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: into a more expensive subscription. I'm trying to think what 603 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: you possibly would pay for. What is it? What does 604 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: Twitter blue have delete or like I don't know if 605 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 1: it has Yeah, I don't. I don't even know to 606 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: the point where you're like I can't even write exactly 607 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: like do I need to have Twitter Blue? I don't 608 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: think so. But I think it's just a way to 609 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: be like it's premium, and then if you're just addicted 610 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: to that word, you're like, yeah, yeah, I got and 611 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: I got the premium Twitter paramout at all. But I 612 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 1: think I think the big thing too is just also 613 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: saying it's like, oh right, this because I think a 614 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: lot of people like this guy doesn't really want Twitter, 615 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like he was really trying 616 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: to avoid it, and now it's like, okay, well now 617 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: you gotta have this thing be a money making thing, 618 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: and like first step is all right, fire everybody and 619 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: then make blue checkmark twenty bucks a month. Yeah, does 620 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: that save my money? You can turn a profit like that, 621 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: And it's so Twitter verification was supposed to be about 622 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: security and rooting out fraud. It was introduced in two 623 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 1: thousand nine and it came after Tony Larusa sued the 624 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 1: company after a Tony Larusa impersonator account made derogatory jokes 625 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: about him, and I think they got that scared them. 626 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: But so Swaring, you do have a blue check mark, 627 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: and I did notice that, like around the time that 628 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: you got the blue checkmark, your appearance totally changed and 629 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: you just took over. I'd always assumed you just took 630 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: over somebody else's account, and once they had the blue 631 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: check mark, it was you were just a new sar 632 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: and booie.

And also it's like Chester Cheetah has 689 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: a blue check mark, right, so like I I'm not 690 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: sure who was trying to steal Chester Cheetah's account, or 691 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: maybe they were. I don't know that that actually makes 692 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: more sense.

So it's just I'm fine with them taking 720 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: away the blue checks from everybody, making it like egalitarian 721 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: because nobody and what that's essentially what they're doing because 722 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna buy a twenty dollars people are saying. And 723 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 1: if they do buy a twenty dollar a month, check 724 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: mark like that fun that person, because then you're gonna 725 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:21,320 Speaker 1: looks like a sign that you're the worst because before 726 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: you could you could have a blue check be like, oh, 727 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 1: I don't know, like they said, they offered it to me, 728 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 1: you know, like back in the day they're like yeah, 729 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: like they are, like my manager figured it out. But 730 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: now like when you have it, you're like, oh, so 731 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: you're paying twenty bucks for that. Yeah, desperation is just 732 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: breaking from it. And so and people know too, are 733 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: smart enough on Twitter to know that if you look 734 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: at somebody's account, you look at how many followers they 735 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,319 Speaker 1: have versus how many they follow and that's like a 736 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 1: good indication of whether this person is the right person, 737 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: like the person you're looking for. If there is any 738 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: ever question about whether this is like a parody account.

I think I think it's 808 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: supposed to be pleasure, a play on that it's p 809 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: L E A S and then all caps H E 810 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 1: R cologne while they were dating. But it's just a 811 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: terrible addic oil ship. But this has been a thing 812 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 1: people have, like I thought was real for a long time. 813 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 1: But this is this is what the joke sex panther 814 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 1: cologne from Anchorman is based off. You know, I mean, 815 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: the same dated ass thinking it's like, no, man, there's 816 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,840 Speaker 1: something in this shift I spray on me that allows 817 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 1: a woman to lower their standards rapidly suddenly like no. 818 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: But again, I think it's like our idea that of 819 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 1: like you hear some science adjacent thing and you're like, 820 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 1: there it is. That's what it was. We're all just robots. Yeah, 821 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: I mean, I think we rewrote about on Cracked at 822 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: one point about people in relationships where a woman when 823 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: she met her husband was on the pill already she 824 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: had been taking for a long time, and then when 825 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,760 Speaker 1: she got off of it, she was like, I don't 826 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 1: like the smell of my husband anymore. Where that kind 827 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 1: of thing happens where suddenly whatever you whatever odor as 828 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: a person you were giving off was at one point 829 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: pleasing to somebody, and then their chemistry changes and you're 830 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 1: like no, no more. Done. Yeah, there's a lot of these, 831 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: like human behavior studies that suggest pheromones are a real thing. 832 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 1: That there's like the one where they smell the underarms 833 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: of like T shirts worn by and then yeah, it's 834 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: like a blind test and then they like meet the 835 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: people and the or they see a picture of the 836 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: people and the people they picked when they were just smelling, 837 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: and the people they picked based on photographs like matched 838 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: up in some weird I don't know, like that those 839 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 1: soft sciences studies, Like I, I've become increasingly skeptical of 840 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 1: of them. I think I edited that article you're talking 841 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 1: about SARN and I I don't think I would be 842 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 1: as on board with some of the claims in that 843 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,399 Speaker 1: article as as I was at the time, just because 844 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 1: it seems like there's you can really like fudge a 845 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 1: lot of it. But the main argument against pheromones is 846 00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: not that like there's no way that pheromones exist in 847 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,440 Speaker 1: human population. There's definitely like something going on with smell 848 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: and like our reaction to smell. Why in like contextual things, 849 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:13,280 Speaker 1: it's like one of the best senses at triggering memories 850 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But this is to say that 851 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: nobody has isolated either how pheromones work or like what 852 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 1: the pheromone is that works every time on everyone. Yeah, 853 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: you can't synthesize something like that, like this is the 854 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:29,319 Speaker 1: one that it's the golden key, This is like this 855 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 1: is the one for everyone. Yeah right, this is the 856 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: msg of of sense. Yeah, exactly that. But that's what 857 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 1: people you know, that's the profitable thing. So that's the 858 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 1: version it's going to get spun out. But company called 859 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 1: Rocks wanted to patent the chemicals two words, I'm not 860 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,240 Speaker 1: gonna try to pronounce and use it in perfumean cologne, 861 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: and a study was published by two University of Utah 862 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 1: psychiatrists about the chemicals. They were on the board of 863 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 1: the company trying to make money off of this. It 864 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: turns out love that love the disingenuous medical study too. 865 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm invested in that thing. I just took 866 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,799 Speaker 1: never mind, never mind, never mind. So disheartening to like 867 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 1: know how often that happens, to just know, like if 868 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: you dig into any study, you're like, well, who paid 869 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 1: for the study? Because they don't just have money? Oh cool, 870 00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: it's the people who wanted to be one very specific outcome, 871 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 1: and it was that like the autism vaccine one where 872 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 1: the guy basically was developing his own vaccine and was 873 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:29,880 Speaker 1: just trying to throw dirt on the other one and 874 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,839 Speaker 1: be like and that's why you want mine, and it's 875 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 1: like if you fuck you, just okay. Yeah, there's just 876 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,680 Speaker 1: no evidence, no scientific evidence that wasn't produced by people 877 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:46,360 Speaker 1: trying to make money that there's no evidence that pheromones 878 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 1: are secreted by all men and women. Yeah, which would 879 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: be the first requirement for a true pheomone. I guess 880 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:57,399 Speaker 1: are getting choked up talking about that. I will. So 881 00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: there was a while ago where I got really into 882 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,959 Speaker 1: vitamins where was like, im fu, I'm the healthiest person 883 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 1: in the planet. I'm invincible. I'm taking everything right. And 884 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 1: I started taking fish oil and my wife at one 885 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: point was like it just smelled different. And I was like, 886 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: do I smell like fish and She's like, no, it's 887 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 1: just different. Like there was something. I was like, it 888 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: was changing something in my chemistry to in the wrong direction, 889 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,239 Speaker 1: where she was like, I don't know what it is. 890 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 1: I just don't like it. You smell different and stop it. Yeah. 891 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 1: It was like please don't, yeah, please, maybe stopped taking 892 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: it and it bounced back and came shining through. When 893 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: I stopped taking something was like somehow creeping into my 894 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 1: pores from it and it was grossing her out and 895 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 1: I couldn't smell it, but she could so much to 896 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: like TikTok videos just feel like that first like semester 897 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,839 Speaker 1: break of your freshman New York college kids come back 898 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 1: from college and like, dude, you know what I fucking 899 00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 1: learned in my sociology class and you're like fuck, you know, 900 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 1: like so many videos Like here's a half fact that 901 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:09,239 Speaker 1: I'm going to just say really confidently, like pheromones ever 902 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 1: fucking heard of them?

Oh man, I met a woman who 956 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 1: this is horrifying. So I met a woman at a 957 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: work event and she was she like let me into 958 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 1: her system when she goes to network, when she goes 959 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 1: around talks to people who are also in the industry. 960 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 1: Letsto your system.

She uh gives a credit or 963 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:38,279 Speaker 1: or takes a credit. And that means that like she's 964 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 1: either getting something from somebody, but she she's talking to 965 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,359 Speaker 1: them like they're giving her something. It's information that she's 966 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 1: interested in, or it's like they have a job that 967 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: she's interested in, like that that relationship is going to 968 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: help her build towards whatever job. Yeah, and then she 969 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,239 Speaker 1: also or if she's in an interaction like that, she's 970 00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 1: also offering something that she's giving something. And it's such 971 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,319 Speaker 1: a weird way of looking at human communication and just 972 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 1: being at a party and talking to people. She's networking. 973 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 1: We are networking. And she's describing it as like this 974 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: great breakthrough that she had where she's like, this is 975 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: what I do, like this, I give and I get, 976 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: I take a credit, give a credit. And I'm like, 977 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: I I don't think we should keep talking? All right? 978 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 1: What do you give me? What do you give me? What? 979 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:31,359 Speaker 1: This is a great event, isn't it? No? Me? Yeah? 980 00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 1: I mean I think it is probably for people who 981 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: are like understand like they read thing like networking is 982 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 1: so important, you know, and like when the people who 983 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 1: just do it naturally just I think naturally just curious 984 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 1: people and they're naturally just going to ask people and 985 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,839 Speaker 1: just have conversations. And yeah, I think for some people, 986 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,840 Speaker 1: it's like I really need a very structured way to 987 00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: sort of understand how to do this because I think 988 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,239 Speaker 1: some people just aren't. That reminds me like when I 989 00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,240 Speaker 1: when I had to sell cars. It's terrible it's selling 990 00:53:58,280 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 1: cars because I don't have it in me to like 991 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,359 Speaker 1: convinced somebody to like do some ship that I want 992 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 1: them to do. Like in that sense, we're like, yo, 993 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 1: you really want this ram man with the new Hemion 994 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:08,839 Speaker 1: dude and Commins Turbo diesel. You fucking love this dude, 995 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,600 Speaker 1: you got a boat. Like I'm just not not like 996 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: a natural salesperson like that to the point where like 997 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 1: I was like this sales people like just try and 998 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: hit these like fucking benchmarks, man, like when you're you're 999 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 1: walking through it, I mean a professional setting. I feel 1000 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:25,799 Speaker 1: like I'll allow it more because that is like a 1001 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 1: little bit more transactional. What if it if it's like 1002 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 1: just like meeting people and like how you're interacting with 1003 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 1: people that yeah, yeah, a little dark, I can see that. 1004 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 1: But I mean I've been to events where there's networking 1005 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:40,200 Speaker 1: happening and everyone sort of agreed that, like, this is 1006 00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: gonna be weird and awkward, but it doesn't have to 1007 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 1: be that weird. Everyone is rough. So what do you do? Immediately, 1008 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: even for you asking name right, No, what do you do? 1009 00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: I asked? First? You're like, can we talk about something else? 1010 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 1: And they're like no, what then what do you do? Right? 1011 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 1: By the way, the movie Black Widow, one of the 1012 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,320 Speaker 1: villains like couldn't be killed by Scarlett Joe Hanson because 1013 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: he had a pheromone lock on her meaning that when 1014 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: he's in smelling rain, she can't pull the trigger. So, yes, 1015 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,800 Speaker 1: it seems like it'd be easy to get around shield 1016 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: it is. It is, I think a scientific mystery because 1017 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 1: we have like the parts of our body that would 1018 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 1: be used for pheromone reception. We've just never found evidence 1019 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 1: that humans use them or like secrete them, and so 1020 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,879 Speaker 1: it it is a scientific mystery. And the way we 1021 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 1: deal with scientific mysteries is by being like, all right, 1022 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 1: we'll use it as a villain thing to like the internet. 1023 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: The Internet is ultron Yeah, pheromones. Pheromones are used to 1024 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:56,840 Speaker 1: as a body shield essentially as always truly a pleasure 1025 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 1: having you.
