Yeah, we have not. Well, we've made 124 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 2: grand plans to go to Olive Garden and then go 125 00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 2: to Duncantone. 126 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 4: This is or whatever it's called. I mean, but a 127 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 4: latte is espresso with the steamed milk. 128 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but this is taking it one step. 129 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 4: Further, espresso with steamed coffee milk. So it's just adding 130 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: like a redundant coffee layer to this. 131 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just extra coffee. I guess. 132 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 4: Oh so is it like higher caffeine because there's like 133 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 4: a coffee extract. Let me, let's find out. 134 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: I'm on it, Miles. Yeah.

Yeah, 137 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: I mean that's not bad. That's pretty good. That's about 138 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: as much as a you know, drip blonde roast of 139 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: Starbucks but you know, drip coffee is actually more highly 140 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: caffemated than people give it credit for, and espresso less 141 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: caffeine because it's so little rite the amount sure, sure, sure, okay, huh, 142 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: but it's a it's a solid amount of caffeine. This 143 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: all feels like I don't know when something goes viral 144 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: from Duncan or like what Starbucks are you know, one 145 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: of these coffee chains, it's usually they're doing way too much, right, 146 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: it's like a pino corn thing that looks like cotton 147 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: candy or some ship.

I think the way that the news 173 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 7: media manipulates you will always be based on what stories 174 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 7: they choose to cover and not cover, Like all of 175 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 7: the news outlets choosing not to publish those hacked Trump 176 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 7: emails and side they're going to sit on that. But 177 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 7: like the thing that you guys, you know, referenced about 178 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 7: the story with the Haitian immigrants eating the pets. The 179 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 7: reason that fake story worked is because Fox News had 180 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 7: been laying the groundwork for years by just cherry picking 181 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 7: actual crimes. Because in a country of three hundred million people, 182 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 7: you can find a trend, whatever trend you want. So 183 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 7: anytime a an illegal immigrant ran a stoplight, Fox News 184 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 7: ran that as a headline and creates by just carefully 185 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 7: sorting through. Again, you know, if a report comes out 186 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 7: that says, well, actually, you know, native born people are 187 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 7: more likely to commit crimes and immigrants, you simply you 188 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 7: simply don't report it. Yeah, And likewise, like this thing 189 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 7: with the you know, the governor North Carolina and the 190 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 7: guy that is Mark Rabinson's his name, but all that 191 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 7: crazy scan like Fox News devoted like seven minutes to 192 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 7: that yesterday, Like they simply just bury it in they're broadcast. 193 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 4: That will always be. 194 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,479 Speaker 7: The way by which people get into bubbles and get programmed. 195 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 7: It's not it does not require the fake news stuff 196 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 7: will be a problem. It doesn't require a hoax. Just 197 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 7: filtering what you report and choose not to report will 198 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 7: always by far be the most powerful thing, because for 199 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 7: the most part you're sticking to things that are real. 200 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 7: It's just that they're not representative of what's going on, 201 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 7: but you can absolutely create the impression. 202 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 4: That they are. 203 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, just a wild selection bias has always been the 204 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 1: way that the US media tends to operate because it's 205 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: a big country and they know what stories they can 206 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: get a lot of eyeballs on because they're scary and 207 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: reinforced preconceived fears and beliefs. 208 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 4: And probably like the easiest way to manufacturer consent too. 209 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 4: It was just by being like, and what if we 210 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 4: just tell people about this all the. 211 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: Time, and now when the decision comes to do something awful, 212 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: you're like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, that makes sense. 213 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: I didn't know that. Like they so they're just not 214 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: publishing the Trump emails. They're because the political The Washington Post, 215 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: I think jud Lugum also at Popular Information said he 216 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: was offered these documents, and he said because he was 217 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: involved in the Podesta emails and he just doesn't think 218 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: that anything in the emails are necessarily of note outside 219 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: of just showing like a shitty campaign. 220 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 4: That was like his logic. But then it's also like, well, 221 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 4: what's the logic of these other papers, because they were 222 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 4: more than willing to publish the emails in the last 223 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 4: like in the twenty sixteen cycle. But it's yeah, it's 224 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 4: just kind of like, well, what what exactly, like tell 225 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 4: us what the the logic is of it. 226 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, that's that's sort of like where I 227 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: feel like that story's kind of out at the moment. Yeah, 228 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: we were talking about this a little bit last week 229 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:02,199 Speaker 1: with regards to there was a Russian creative fake media 230 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: like fake a local news story about Kamala Harris like 231 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: running someone over in her car and then like driving 232 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: away in San Francisco, and like people were just you know, 233 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: you could see that it was a fake news site 234 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: that doesn't actually exist. They created the URL two days before. 235 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: It wasn't overly convincing, and it didn't seem to like 236 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: get that much media attention other than the debunking of 237 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: it got a lot of attention. Whereas you know, just 238 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: Elon Musk having as many followers and as much sway 239 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: as he has just tweeting any dumb bullshit absent mindedly 240 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,719 Speaker 1: is pretty I think, more influential than I want to 241 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: believe it is. Also, well yeah, now especially with the 242 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: block function being like, ah, even if you block me, 243 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 1: you're still going to see my bullshit. 244 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 4: Yeah. 245 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,599 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that the thing with Hillary's emails in 246 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 7: twenty sixteen, I think that is the perfect cause sample 247 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 7: of what I'm talking about here, because that was the 248 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 7: case where I think if you interviewed one thousand people 249 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 7: both sides and said, can you summarize what was scandalous 250 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 7: about her emails the whole but her email theme, which 251 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 7: became the number one story that entire campaign because those 252 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 7: were released in a drip feed where it's like a 253 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 7: new revelation every day, can you summarize what the deal 254 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 7: was with those emails and why that should be a 255 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 7: deciding factor in who you vote for. I think not 256 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 7: five people in a thousand could accurately explain. But when 257 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 7: The New York Times has Hillary clinton emails as the 258 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 7: a one story every day Hillary Clinton email scandal, by 259 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 7: putting it at the top of the front page, you 260 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 7: are saying that it's important. You are saying that it's 261 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 7: huge and impactful, and this must be a terrible crime 262 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 7: that's been like this must be disqualifying. So even if 263 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 7: you watching it don't fully understand what's bad about it 264 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 7: or what it means or whatever, it doesn't matter because 265 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 7: giving it that place on the front page indicates that 266 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 7: it matters, and it's a negative story. So he's saying, Hey, 267 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 7: all the other stuff in this selection not important. This 268 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 7: email server, your personal email server. Security candidates using personal 269 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 7: email for like, that's what matters, that's the thing that's 270 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 7: at stake in the selection, and they set the agenda 271 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 7: that way. Again, the stuff they were reporting wasn't fake, 272 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 7: it's just the amount of spotlight they chose to give 273 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 7: to it as opposed to anything else that created the 274 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 7: impression that it is I think as false, as in 275 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 7: something that was you know, that had been gend up 276 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 7: out of whole cloth. 277 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think yeah, it gave a 278 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: look into like sort of what was going on in 279 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: the DNC. But then people like John Podesta called a 280 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: guy a prick and this is his risotto recipe and what. 281 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: But they're at the same time like, uh, you know, 282 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: Colin Powell also had a private email server. A lot 283 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: of people like what what, what what's the emphasis about? 284 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, now it's just very much like it's not 285 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: in the public interest. Blake, what's something you think is underrated? 286 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: Underrated? 287 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 6: Cuckoo clocks?

They want to feel like they are in 628 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: some other world. And so I think other than the ORB, 629 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: the ORB is the only one that I've like heard 630 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: of that like consistently people are like, yeah, it's really weird, 631 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: like you don't feel like you're on the planet at all. 632 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 4: From some people. 633 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: Some people are like, yeah, it's just a weird bed 634 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: motion sickness experience.

That's what that whole experience is about, 637 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: is like immersive feeling like you're not there, And it 638 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: still feels kind of to me, not to everyone. Obviously, 639 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: they're like Disney adults who like love Disney, and I 640 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,720 Speaker 1: think that's great, but like, to me, it still feels 641 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 1: like you're like in a bar when the lights come on, 642 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: like on your childhood. 643 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 6: Right, yes, yeah, because you don't just see many and 644 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 6: you don't just see like goofy or whatever.

Uh yeah, I don't 715 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 2: want any of that stuff necessarily. What I do want 716 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 2: is honestly more air conditioning. Bad idea. AMC's are too cold, freezing, 717 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 2: oh my god, freezing, and so like lay off the 718 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,280 Speaker 2: AC and it's like and they're too loud. 719 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: You need to pack for mountaineering to like go to 720 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: an AMC. It's fucking freezing there. Yeah, you know layers. 721 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 4: So this is so NATO, right. They represent the likes 722 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 4: of AMC, Cinemak, regal cinemas, and they control about like 723 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 4: seventy percent of the market. So they're talking like we're 724 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 4: putting two point two billion, like twenty one thousand screens basically. 725 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 4: And I think ever since Barbenheimer summer, like the industry 726 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 4: has been really positive, like the theater industry has been 727 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 4: really positive, like that the movies are fully back, but 728 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 4: now they want to evolve in order to compete with 729 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 4: like smaller chains that offer premium experiences like IPIIC or 730 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 4: Alamo Draft House, And we're like, how do we get 731 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 4: in on that? So again it's like Arcades, it's bowling better, 732 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 4: better sound systems, Caitlin, better seating, improving concessions, and like 733 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 4: all this other stuff new signs, revamped carpeting, which you're like, okay, 734 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,799 Speaker 4: But they also said that the competition, the quote competition 735 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 4: for consumers hard earned dollars is fiercer than ever. But 736 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 4: I'm like, is making the movies a more premium experience 737 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 4: the way like if you acknowledge the hard earned dollars part, 738 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 4: but then make the move like, then make the movies 739 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 4: easier to go to, rather than be like, well now 740 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,800 Speaker 4: you got recliners and shit this year forty five bucks 741 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 4: for a ticket, right, And the. 742 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 2: Thing that gets me to see so many movies is 743 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,760 Speaker 2: any is like a pass a movie, pass the amc 744 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:36,399 Speaker 2: A list, because yeah, movies are inaccessible price wise, right 745 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 2: for most people unless you have some kind of thing 746 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 2: like that. The reason I go to AMC's is because 747 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 2: I have the thing. So they need to like incentivize 748 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 2: people that way, right, not by being like we have 749 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 2: a bowling alley now, and it's like, well, I'm not 750 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 2: I'm going to see a movie.

They think it's, oh, this 880 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 4: thing has to cease to be a movie theater with 881 00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 4: affordable prices rather than like I'm sure so many these 882 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 4: like you know, movie passes are becoming like huge parts 883 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 4: of their business and realizing, oh, maybe like it should 884 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 4: just be that it's easier to come to the movies, 885 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 4: and that through having more affordable prices and I'm sure 886 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 4: you're gonna sell, you'll offset the amount of empty seats 887 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 4: you have by having seats that are just reasonably priced 888 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,399 Speaker 4: but again, these are mostly publicly traded companies, so line 889 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 4: has to go up. And now they're like, yeah, they're 890 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 4: gonna love these two point two billion dollars you put 891 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:02,480 Speaker 4: into like new seats or whatever.

Should we check in with the billionaires because 904 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 1: we are always concerned about the billionaires. Over the past 905 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: four years, we were worried, you know, like Bernie Sanders 906 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 1: got a little bit of heat, you know, he got 907 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: some attent, national attention, and we on this podcast were like, Okay, 908 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 1: that is dangerous. What is going to happen to the 909 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: billionaire's wealth now? 910 00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 4: Because what if I become a billionaire? 911 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 1: Yes, news for those of us with a growth mentality. 912 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 1: Billionaire wealth has grown by eighty eight percent in the 913 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: last four years. Fucking percent is so wild after the 914 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,880 Speaker 1: scene Trump left office, it's grown by eighty eight percent 915 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,440 Speaker 1: because the pandemic was really good for them. Because basically 916 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 1: every event it turns out in our current system is 917 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 1: really good for them, because they will take any opportunity 918 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 1: to manipulate the rules to be better for them, and 919 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 1: we live in a society where that is entirely possible 920 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,920 Speaker 1: and will not stop unless they are stopped. So billionaire 921 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: wealth way up, staggering amount of money that should never 922 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: be accumulated by a single person. 923 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 4: Right, But if they're not, like, if they're not unburdening 924 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:53,319 Speaker 4: themselves of this wealth by buying Nazi memorabilia, Yeah, because. 925 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 1: That's apparently not allowed anymore. 926 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 4: Shout out Harley Crow. So what do they do then? 927 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 4: Where do you take your gotten gay? 928 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,839 Speaker 1: Well, So the problem with having that much money, we're 929 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 1: learning it's bad for us who don't have that much money, 930 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 1: also bad for them because they go a little bit 931 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: crazy and they get very scared of us. When you 932 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 1: get that much money, you start to be afraid of 933 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 1: all the money you have because it is a unjust, 934 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 1: just irrational amount of money that you have, and you 935 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 1: turn into Gollam and you start just wanting to be 936 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 1: isolated from everything around you and treating everyone around you 937 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 1: like an enemy combatant. And so that brings us to 938 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: Indian Creek, which is a island that is privately incorporated 939 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: by billionaires in Miami's Biscayne Bay. Jeff Bezos recently bought 940 00:50:56,520 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 1: in bought like three homes on this island. It is 941 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 1: essentially a military fortress at this point, Okay, says guns 942 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 1: and stuff. Yeah, yeah, oh well it has so it 943 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: has basically a cop for every person who lives there. 944 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 1: Not quite, but they have nineteen cops and I think 945 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: like sixty something people who live there. So if New 946 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:23,880 Speaker 1: York had the equivalent citizen too cop ratio, it would 947 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 1: be it would have like six point five. 948 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 4: Millions or something like that. It's crazy. 949 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: But they all also have private security for it, like 950 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:36,360 Speaker 1: Elon Musk travels with twenty travels with up to twenty 951 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 1: bodyguards at a time. So this Indian Creek place, it 952 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 1: used to be just you know, a place where rich 953 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 1: people lived. In Miami. There is a publicly funded bridge 954 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:52,239 Speaker 1: that goes to the island that is part of the 955 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 1: Miami like city municipality, and it used to be a 956 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:01,280 Speaker 1: thing where like people like this. One guy said, who 957 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: lives like on the other side of that bridge, on 958 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 1: the Miami side of that bridge, said the security is 959 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,920 Speaker 1: very different from how it used to be, and then 960 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,439 Speaker 1: recalled a time in the early nineties when he could 961 00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 1: bring his college friends to Indian Creeksgate and get permission 962 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,880 Speaker 1: from the police to give them a tour of the island. Now, 963 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 1: if he approaches the bridge, the cops start flashing their 964 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:26,240 Speaker 1: lights and order him to back away. Approaches, approach, roaches 965 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,760 Speaker 1: the bridge, not even on get the don't even fucking 966 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,879 Speaker 1: approach this.
