9
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: Did you know there's an n f T band? Now? Okay?

10
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: Sorely he can't even he can't even wait to share this.

11
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,639
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know what this story is, so happy,

12
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: So if you don't, If you spend any time on

13
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 1: social media, you're probably aware that like n f T

14
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 1: s or a thing, and for reasons that are knowable

15
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: unto not even God. The most popular ones are a

16
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: bunch of procedurally generated, um almost identical cartoons of apes

17
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: in various clothing like it's the same basic ape image,

18
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: and some will have laser shooting out of their eyes,

19
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: and yeah, some will have party hats and some have

20
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: sold for I think the most one sold for five

21
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: million dollars um and now it didn't it didn't for

22
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: real sell because what you do these things, well yeah, well,

23
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, what you do with these things is

24
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: you own one and you either have a separate quality,

25
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: like pay someone to buy it for slightly more than

26
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: a certain amount of money and you give him a

27
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: kickback whatever. Like there's a couple of ways to do it,

28
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: but it's just this process of people like by pulling

29
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: it like like starting with like you know, you get

30
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: up to the first ten, fifteen thousand or whatever like that,

31
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: by kind of using your own money to establish that

32
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: it has value. And because of the blockchain, the transactions

33
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: where this is you selling it to you or a

34
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: proxy over and over again, those transactions like are registered

35
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: on the blockchain, so it looks like, oh wow, people

36
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: have just been progressively paying more for it. The values

37
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: like quadrupled in three days. I should throw down money

38
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: right now, and then suddenly no one's willing to buy

39
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: it because there's not like actual demand for this, which

40
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: is why Logan Paul paid seven thousand for an n

41
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: f T that he can't sell for like or last

42
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: I checked, he was unable to sell it and the

43
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: one that was five hut forty million dollars. It was

44
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: found because whoever did deal wasn't being careful enough. He

45
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: like bought it as with a separate wallet and then

46
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: transferred it back to his original wallet, which people could see.

47
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: So I guess you could say the strength of the

48
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 1: blockchain is that people were able to find out pretty quickly. Oh,

49
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: this guy conned everybody. He's just buying his own thing

50
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: to raise up the price. But on the other hand, um,

51
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem to have stopped the irrational exuberance over

52
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: cartoon pictures of monkeys selling for millions of dollars as

53
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: part of a money laundering scheme. So now Universal Music

54
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: Group has bought up four of these like monkey pictures.

55
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: The specific thing therefrom is called the Board a Board

56
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: a pyacht Club, which is one of the n f

57
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: T projects that like there's a little more of an

58
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: actual thing going on, and that having an n f

59
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: T like you get into this digital community and ship

60
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: like there's some perks that aren't just you own a

61
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: link to a drawing um and for whatever reason people

62
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: are Universal has decided this is a good thing to

63
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: bet on, so they bought like a handful of these

64
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: and f T s, and then they found musicians. They

65
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: basically made the monkeys like the band, but they're also

66
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: of n FT images, out of n f T images

67
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: of monkeys, um, and now they're they're doing a musical thing.

68
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: It's probably gonna be like a shitty gorilla's rip off,

69
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: right or the monkeys, I mean the monkeys, Yeah, mash up.

70
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: I could get behind that. I can't behind any of this.

71
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: It's stupid, it's incredibly right. Have you seen the ad

72
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: for the official n f T TV show What Shut

73
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: the funk Up? Oh? Yeah, I'm playing this. We're playing

74
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: the audio from this in the fucking episode. I'm gonna

75
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: drop it in. So this is a ship like again,

76
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: it's another one of these things where a group of

77
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: people with some actual money. Um potentially they got rich

78
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: in en I don't know, but like they've got enough

79
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: to put together a little animation. Um, and they're advertising

80
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: a TV show made up of n f T s

81
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 1: that people bought and like licensed to make the show.

82
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: Because not this, Every n FC doesn't work this way.

83
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: The n f T on its own confers the right

84
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: to nothing. But like where the link is stored um,

85
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: but the board apes in particular, when you buy one

86
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: of these, you get the ability to like sell the

87
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: rights to this procedurally generated ape image, which are deliberately

88
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: the laziest things in the world. They're not characters, they're

89
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 1: just like crude images in anyway, some I'm sure grifters.

90
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 1: I'm certain this is going to fall apart as a grift.

91
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: But they had enough actual money or or enough people

92
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: who believed in the vision that they put together this

93
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,679
Speaker 1: trailer for a cartoon TV show based off like four

94
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: licensed n f T s, like three of them are

95
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: apes and one of them is identical drawings of lions basically,

96
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 1: So I'm just I'm gonna play or we're gonna play

97
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 1: this now. I hate explaining this because it's so stupid,

98
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: but it continues to be a fighting thing. So I'm

99
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: a good job of like not knowing enough about this

100
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: to get mad. It's it's it's infuriating. I am a

101
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: furious by it. It's not even infuriating because of like

102
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 1: the environmental cost. Like yes, there's a separate place in

103
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: my head that's angry about that, because like a billion

104
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: things people do have horrible making normal movies has horrible

105
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: environmental costs, right, Like we do a lot of ship

106
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: that's bad for the environment. That's not the specific reason

107
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: that I hate n f T s. The specific reason

108
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: I hate a f is because how fucking stupid they are.

109
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: It's so stupid and boring and empty and like it

110
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: just isn't the right word. Yeah, I hate to sound

111
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: money on it, but like your grandparents, like just not

112
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: understanding the appeal, but really, really, what's the appeal? Um? Yeah,

113
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: play this trailer. I mean the appeal is making money

114
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: for the people who get really, Yeah, let's watch let's

115
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 1: watch this cartoon masterpiece. One am I reading this right?

116
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: I'm doing a video of that Monkeys going to space?

117
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: Oh my god? Whatever, whatever, it gets me paid, right,

118
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: we having me. It's the year Earth is dying. Humans

119
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: fucked up real bad, Michael Jackson bad. But there's still home.

120
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: Where there's an ape. There's a way. Come on, that's

121
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: a dog. Yeah, it's because the dog and I'm guessing

122
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: the Red Ape family coming soon. I don't know what

123
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: I looked at. How you feeling about that, Cody? You

124
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: look like you're about to have an aneurysm am, I

125
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: oh god, it's a combination so many things that Yeah,

126
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: like it's nothing, it's nothing. What was that? It's what

127
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: it was like, it's a bunch of the spaceship was

128
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: called the musk one. Yeah, and the pictures of them

129
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: looking out spaceship windows and trailer the laziest animation and

130
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: it's it's not I'm not talking about like like you

131
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: watch an old cartoon like The flint Stones, and like

132
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: the animation the things that can make the characters do

133
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: is kind of primitive to today, and like there's kind

134
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: of a charm to that. This isn't charming. This looks

135
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: like something somebody put together on a laptop for because

136
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:26,119
Speaker 1: that's what they did. It's charming. The Flintstones is charming

137
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: because that was not lazy in any capacity. That's where

138
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: we were at. Like that was a lot of work

139
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: to make. Um, this was not. I hate that so much.

140
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 1: And uh, it's just what is it about? What is like?

141
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: What is it about? What? Who is writing? There's no

142
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: hint of the plot other than the world destroyed? Yeah.

143
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: Also like where there's a what was it? Where there's

144
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: a h an ape, there's a way, yeah, something like that,

145
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: where there's not an ape, like, come on, yeah, they're

146
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: they're they're not great writers. I mean, it's it's this

147
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: thing where they have this all consuming vision. The people

148
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: who are like because it's a it's a mix of

149
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: people in n f T s of like people who

150
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: are just laundering money, right, and and they're just like,

151
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: well this is this is a great way to launder money,

152
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: or people who are good con artists and are like, well,

153
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: I can make and a lot of people have pulled

154
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: off multimillion dollar cons by like creating a line of

155
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: n f T s and then taking all of the money,

156
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: um and not delivering any of the promised features. Like

157
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: it happens all the time in this world. It's just

158
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: this like stupid. It's also they're so insistent the people

159
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: who are true believers, because that's most of like the marks, right,

160
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 1: Like the people who just want you see this as

161
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: a money making venture are using the people who think

162
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: that this is going to be all of society as marks.

163
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: And I would feel worse for those people if this

164
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: wasn't their vision of all of society, if like they

165
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: weren't the kind of people who would look at some

166
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: ship like this and be like, oh okay, the or

167
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: or or like this is a good future where like

168
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: we randomly generate images of apes and cast them in

169
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: cartoon shows and and have that be our currency. Right,

170
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: And it's not this on its own, because it's like, yeah,

171
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure at some point there will be completely computer

172
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: generated plots and actors and voice actors and the whole

173
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: whole stories that human beings never had a hand in touching.

174
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: And maybe they'll just be interesting because of how ridiculous

175
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: and unhinged they are, certainly at first, But like, this

176
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: isn't fun, it isn't kitchy. It's just crap. It's just

177
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: they've invented away to kill more trees to make crap.

178
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: It's like a first draft of a sketch that you

179
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: make when you're just out of college. Yeah, and yeah,

180
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: and and in fairness, this has seventy nine, which gives

181
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: you some idea of like number one, what a con

182
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 1: and f t s are like the big companies that

183
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: are getting in on this, I think are getting fleeced

184
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: like a lot of the little people, because the numbers

185
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: that some of these are selling for have convinced people like, Okay,

186
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: this is a real thing, or at least real for

187
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: a while. But this is a small mean. This video

188
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: has seventy nine thousand views, right, and most of them

189
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: are people making fun of it. It has four hundred

190
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: and four likes and twenty nine thousand down earth four

191
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: and four up votes in twenty nine thousand down votes,

192
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:24,479
Speaker 1: which is an amazing ratio. That's wow, that's incredible. Yeah, yeah,

193
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: it's just anyway. The good news is that the new

194
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: whatever spending bill that just came out, the big, the big,

195
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: you know, Biden's very happy about it. The thing of

196
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: the jig um, it's better infrastructure. There's some ship. The

197
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: ship I think it's in that bill. It maybe just

198
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: getting passed around the same time. But there's some restrictions

199
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: on what n f T s. They're not restrictions, there's

200
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: clarification as to how they're being treated. Because a lot

201
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,719
Speaker 1: of critics of n f T have been saying, this

202
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: is just unlicensed securities trading. You're just you're just trading

203
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: securities without a license, um, and you're calling it something else.

204
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: And now the government has said, hey, yeah, you got

205
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: to treat these like securities, which means when you sell

206
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: one to somebody, you have to have an actual person,

207
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: you have to provide a person's information to the government

208
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: as to who that sale was, which means you can't

209
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: anonymously pay people to just like bid things up as

210
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: easily because you're also paying more than thirty taxes or

211
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,599
Speaker 1: I think it's about that much on like that the

212
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: biggest ones these you're paying taxes on these for every transaction,

213
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: and they have to have the real names of real

214
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: people so that you can't The benefit of this from

215
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: a grifting standpoint was that since it stood outside of

216
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: the UH because like actual art, like real art is

217
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: used for money laundering all the fucking time. Um it's

218
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: been a huge problem, and a bunch of laws it

219
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: came in and safeguards were put in the place to

220
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: reduce the ability of art sales to work in the

221
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: same way that I explained in f T s work.

222
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: And now the situation is that, um, like for a

223
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: while n f T s were kind of nobody was

224
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 1: looking at them or the government was not taking action

225
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: on anything, so you could have the same guy just

226
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: bid up as long he had other cryptot to uses

227
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: like the basis, just continually bit up the price of

228
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: whatever n f T he had into like wow, this

229
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: is worth twenty million dollars and look at all these

230
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: people who have been Maybe it's just this one guy.

231
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 1: He can't do that anymore because he's paying taxes on

232
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: every one of those transactions that exists to jack up

233
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 1: the price of the n f T and he has

234
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: to make it public. Who like, he has to he

235
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: has to at least let the government know who's um,

236
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: who's buying it, So like, yeah, it's just this guy

237
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: manipulating a security um anyway, so hopefully they're fucked. They've

238
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: got like a year I think before all this, all

239
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: this gets settled. But that's my n f T rant

240
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: for the day. How are you all feeling confused? But um, yeah,

241
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: it's not. You're not confused because you don't get it.

242
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: You're confused because it's just too stupid to be real. Yeah,

243
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,719
Speaker 1: that's that's that's the only your confusion comes from a

244
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 1: place of like, how could how could it be this dumb?

245
00:13:54,080 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: And that's exactly right. I yeah, this sp a man

246
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: on the But I've gotten more and more comfortable with

247
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: accepting that, Like over the past couple of years. It's

248
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: not just n f T s, it's lots of things

249
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: where I'm like everything, and so you just have to, um,

250
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,439
Speaker 1: get comfortable with the unknowing. Yeah, embrace the stupid. Uh.

251
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: This ties into another piece of news because last last week, Um,

252
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: Richard Kianka, better known as Low Tax, founder of the

253
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: Something Awful forums, died Um and he had he was

254
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: not a good person. Uh was a spousal abuser on

255
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: a number of different cases, like squandered every opportunity in

256
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: piece of good fortune that came his way. But he

257
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: also invented, like the modern a huge chunk of like

258
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: digital culture that even persists in the social media era.

259
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: Like Something Awful is where memes in a lot of

260
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: cases got started. It's the first time you had like

261
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: people on an internet community like going into the real

262
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: world to like go after the Church of scientology and

263
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: ship like it. And it's very important piece of foundational

264
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: digital culture. And Richard Kianka had a motto for the

265
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: website that he ran into the ground called the Internet

266
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: makes you Stupid, which is the the only thing he

267
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: ever really got right. Um, it's so fucking dumb. Everything

268
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: is so goddamn stupid. And like n f t s,

269
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: they don't really like the The environmental impact is horrible.

270
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: If you view the total environmental impact of n f

271
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: t s on like a global scale, it's not problem

272
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: no one, but the sheer, the sheer scope of how

273
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: dumb in f t S are as a concept is

274
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: offensive to the soul. Yeah, and how much dumber they'll get. Yeah,

275
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: they'll only get yeah blasting off to Mars to Muskville.

276
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: They go to Muskville by the way. Yeah, of course

277
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: they go to chains by the way. Oh good, so

278
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: somebody knows what they're doing. That's good to hear. This

279
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: is so ridiculous, chicks, baby have you You should look

280
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: at the lazy Lions art if you really want to

281
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: get angry lions. Yeah, there's all the same. Yea procedurally

282
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: generated crap like someone drew one monkey and then plugged

283
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: a bunch of fucking accessories into an algorithm. Excuse me,

284
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: excuse me, they're idiots, right, Like it's not just lazy art,

285
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: it's like offensively shitty. I mean, it's like want to

286
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: embrace it, like, yeah, we don't give your eyes general

287
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: And I hate believe you said that I should look

288
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: at these you, I there's something important I haven't quite

289
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: figured out how to write about this yet and like

290
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: what what this is all kind of like swirling around

291
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: in my head for me, But like it's just I

292
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: I thinks, as a student of history, you have to

293
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: avoid acting as if there's a privileged position within time

294
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: to stand from right in terms of like making judgments

295
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: about things and how dumb things are. And it is

296
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: true that incredibly dumb things we're have been going on

297
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: all throughout history, and that's that's made up the majority

298
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: of international relations at least, is very dumb things. But

299
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: I'm not a historian, but I am a student. I

300
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: do study history quite a lot, and this is one

301
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: of the dumbest things I've ever heard of people doing.

302
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: Like We've done a lot of stupid stuff, but this

303
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: is so fucking dumb. Well, what it really is is

304
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: an alarming sign of our devolution, evolution whatever you want

305
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: to call it. Um culturally, I don't know if that's

306
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 1: the case. I think this is the way things go,

307
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: you don't think. I think devolution again is kind of

308
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: acting from within a privileged position in time and and

309
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: taking the stance that, like something else that I experienced

310
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: some other moment in history, I think was better now

311
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: for these reasons, and so I guess kind of the

312
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: way I prefer to look at it is not that

313
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: like this is bad because things were better before, but

314
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 1: like the stupidity of this, um would not have been

315
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: possible in another era, the kind of we we invented

316
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: a new kind of dumb for this. Right throughout history,

317
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 1: people invent new kinds of stupid, And this is like,

318
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 1: this is something new being born right now. We haven't

319
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: fully seen the shape of this kind of stupid yet. Sure,

320
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: that's a better way of approaching it than just devolution,

321
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: that's the jokey thing. But you know, yeah, this is

322
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: a choice people are trying to make. Yeah, the direction

323
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,679
Speaker 1: that we are going used to like people and like

324
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 1: influencers and like social capital tied up to it, and like, well,

325
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: and I guess what's scary is like this might work.

326
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: It might be in terms of the metrics by which

327
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 1: you people govern society. Um, this might they might decide, like, Nope,

328
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 1: this was a great idea. Burning up huge chunks of

329
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: carbon into the atmosphere in order to make procedurally generated

330
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: monkey pictures into lazy cartoons is the way we want

331
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: the human race to work. I mean, just a general

332
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: I know, I know what might happen, we might be

333
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: seeing this happen, but in general, it just astounds me

334
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: that a whole new industry has emerged that is very

335
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: bad for the planet, despite the conversations that we all

336
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: have every day that we're like, yeah, let's get behind

337
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,959
Speaker 1: this thing. And I know that in the scheme of things,

338
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: there's lots of stuff that are bad for the planet,

339
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: just like you laid out earlier. But a new thing

340
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: that we all like, this is so much. It's one thing.

341
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,400
Speaker 1: It's one thing to give, it's one thing to kill

342
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: the world by giving human beings what we've always wanted,

343
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 1: which is like a horse that can never die, um

344
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: and protects us from the rain and plays our favorite

345
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: music right like that, And that's that's dumb. That was

346
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: a bad decision, but it mad like historically you can

347
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 1: see like it's sathing with like air travel horrible for

348
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: the environment. It's fulfilling a dream man has had for

349
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 1: going back now air travel as a person to like,

350
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: so we're doing horrible damage to the environment in order

351
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: to turn pictures of monkeys into commodities. Why terrible pictures

352
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: of monkeys alright, terrible, horrific pictures of monkeys. Um. Anyway,

353
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: that's that's all I have to say. Yeah, it was

354
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 1: a lot, and I thank you. I'm sorry. Break, don't

355
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: be sorry. You just we get to take a break,

356
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, we get to take a break together. Everything

357
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: all right, We're back. And I think during the break

358
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: I came up. I came to the conclusion, like, what

359
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 1: is so offensive about n f t S. To me,

360
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: it's the it is the end of all pretense of

361
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: the American dream in terms in terms of like the

362
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: pretense that like in the United States, you can be

363
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: born poor and you can, through good decisions and careful work,

364
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: become a business owner and own your own business and

365
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: make and raise your your class and your position in society,

366
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,880
Speaker 1: and like anyone can do that. That's like the that's

367
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: the American myth, right um. And so past scams like

368
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 1: am Weigh and the like latched onto that myth by

369
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: saying like this is the way for you to make

370
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 1: your own business and raise to become a rich person,

371
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 1: raise out of the working class, and you can do

372
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: it if you just work hard enough. And that was

373
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: a scam. The whole thing was always a scam. Like

374
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: even outside I am way. But it was a scam

375
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,239
Speaker 1: with an understandable dream attached, which is like, I I

376
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: want to believe that with hard work, I can improve

377
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: my position in the world. That's an empowering thing to

378
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: believe when you come out of the beliefs that people

379
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: had before about like, yeah, your social position is born

380
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: and you it cannot be moved. You know, you're a surf.

381
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: You'll die a surf. That's the way it works. You know,

382
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 1: there's there's absolutely no mobility coming out of that world.

383
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 1: It was like this big deal and every scam that's

384
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: hit this country since it's like latched onto parts of it.

385
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: But there was there was a core there of like

386
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: this dream of through your own effort rising ahead in

387
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: the world, as opposed to the kind of the core

388
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: of the n f T scam isn't through your own

389
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 1: effort you can rise ahead in the world. It's if

390
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: you buy the right procedurally generated monkey picture, you could

391
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: become a billionaire. That's the promise of n f T

392
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: S and I. It's how to make the most amount

393
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 1: of money with the least amount of effort you can

394
00:22:53,960 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 1: get you can it's it's it's my nephew, you who's

395
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: way too old to believe that Elon Musk is very

396
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: cool to have billions of dollars. Um, what else should

397
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: we talk about? I don't know, real quick. When you

398
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 1: when you, if you guys did make the mistake of

399
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: googling the lazy lions and seeing the images and the

400
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:26,719
Speaker 1: image search, if you scroll down, you will be treated

401
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: to actual pictures of lazy lions and it's really cute. Yeah,

402
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: now that sounds like that sounds like a good thing

403
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 1: to be trading around. That's just exactly I would I

404
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: can imagine a utopian civilization in which human beings are

405
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 1: able to like store the emotional and mental like data

406
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: of seeing something for the first time and share that,

407
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: and then the currency in that world does become the

408
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,640
Speaker 1: cutest things you've seen an animal done, because like then

409
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: everyone can relive that moment that your cat fell in

410
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: that ridiculous word whatever. That would be a much saner

411
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 1: base for a system of currency. I think, um, just

412
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 1: shop he's fucking I'm sorry, these fucking stupid apes in

413
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: their stupid spaceship escaping Earth, which is destroyed. Why do

414
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: you think the Earth is destroyed? Stid F. I just

415
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,479
Speaker 1: need to say we've we've spent so much time talking

416
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: about a trailer that none of our listeners saw. They

417
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: just listened to us react to it's fine, radio baby, Fine,

418
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 1: let's let's talk about other things. Yeah, uh, Cody, you'd said, yeah, okay.

419
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: Well Alex Jones, guys, how about oh yeah he lost God?

420
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: What is this his fourth case for his words once again?

421
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: Um yeah, it's like it's uh, it's definitely not his first,

422
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 1: probably not his last. Probably, Um yeah, he's found liable.

423
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: Um by default. Umi, almost doesn't happen. Like it's very difficult,

424
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: Like very rarely does a case like this end by default.

425
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: It's like almost unheard of because it just means that

426
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: the court kept saying, okay, as a result of this case,

427
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: you are legally obligated to provide us with X. And

428
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: Alex Jones and his lawyers always said no. The the

429
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,400
Speaker 1: guy they had acting as the representative of the company,

430
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: like that's an official person you have to designate in

431
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: this kind of a case. Is like who who is

432
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: speaking for the company? The guy that they picked for

433
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 1: that wasn't told that was his job when he went

434
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: in to be the post. Like in the deposition, you

435
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: can hear him find out that he's representing Knowledge Fights

436
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 1: done some incredible coverage of this, but yeah, he's he

437
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 1: keeps losing cases. Um, it should put him out of business.

438
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: Uh thinkers business. Through this, I discovered that one of

439
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 1: his companies it is called Free Speech Systems, which I

440
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: guess I think it's kind of Ye, it's good stuff. Um,

441
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: it's yeah, good stuff. I mean, this thing is discussing.

442
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I knew that this has been going on,

443
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: but in this news breaking and reading through everything, I

444
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: had forgotten just how disgusting it is. I'm just gonna

445
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: the shooting. This is from the a p. The shooting

446
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: was portrayed on Jones's Infu Infu War shows a hoax

447
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: involving actors aimed at increasing gun control. Jones has since

448
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: acknowledged the schools shooting did occur, but families of the

449
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: victims said that they have been subjected to harassment and

450
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: death threats from Jones's followers because of the hoax conspiracy

451
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: pushed on info Wars. I just stop to think about

452
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: that for a moment, because we're talking about this and

453
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: making jokes. But what this represent these people, I mean,

454
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: the greatest tragedy and then to have years and years

455
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: and years of this fucking clown making their life a

456
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: living hell. Uh and way, there's no point here. I

457
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: just feel like it's important to acknowledge what this is

458
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: about and what happened here. Yeah, um it's a gross

459
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: man and uh, you know, like the records that he

460
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: was supposed to release were related to whether or not

461
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: he profited from spreading about this. He wouldn't, so maybe

462
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 1: he did from that. And they're gonna, you know, appeal

463
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: this and everything and push for this, and they're just

464
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 1: trying to say that there's no proof that we did this. Well,

465
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: you're not providing proof that you didn't. Man, Yeah you

466
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: I mean, Alex does this every time. It's like that.

467
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: It's like when you bring up things that he said, um,

468
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 1: in like criticizing him, he'll say, like if you play

469
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: a clip from it, he'll say, it's taken out of context.

470
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 1: Like it it doesn't matter. The only the only thing

471
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: that matters from this is that fucking god willing they

472
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: will destroy the ability of Info Was to operate as

473
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: a company through the lawsuits as a result of this. Um.

474

00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: the Laura Ingram Show where it's rough. Um, it's supposed

510
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: to be like the name of the segment is Numbers

511
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: Don't Live youre was like woke free TV, and so

512
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: I think it's about how uh woke TV is uh

513
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 1: not getting good ratings or some ship. Um, that's what

514
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be about. This comes apparently just in

515
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: the middle of of of the segment. Um, Yeah, is

516
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,920

00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: bit or not. Um, I have opinions on this, yeah earlier. Yeah,

00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 1: was an episode of a show Laura, what's it called you?

536
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: It's called you. I've never done a show on measles.

537
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: I just completely called you on Netflix. There's a show

538
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: called Lauring. I'm a Netflix. I'm moving home to Adele.

539
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 1: I can't explain this to you, singer. Oh wow, I

540
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 1: don't know. I think it's real. I think it's fucking real.

541
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: I think it's no that real. I think it's real.

542
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 1: I think it's real. I think they're a debate about this.

543
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: There's a hearty debate about this. Did she come out

544
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: and be like I was joking or something, and like

545
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: I understood the whole time because you didn't. You didn't

546
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: you just you didn't she She seemed to be getting

547
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: flustered a bit about it. It's it's it's clearly it's

548
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: obviously an Abbot and Costello bit. I made a joke

549
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: about that on Twitter that like, this is the Thousand

550
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: Monkeys typewriters version of of of the works of Abbot

551
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: and Costello. But that's also like the kind of harmless

552
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: old timey comedy that a bunch of right wing ghoules

553
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: would pick to replicate on their show for some baffling reason,

554
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: I would need to like sit down and look at

555
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: the cody if you seen more of the context of this. No,

556
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that before. I would have to look

557
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: at an episode of the ingram Angle. Apparently they've done

558
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: like things like this before, not exactly the context, but

559
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 1: they've done bits. It's like, it's because the thing is,

560
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: if it's not planned, it's extremely funny and embarrassing. Uh.

561
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: If it is planned, it's very stupid, And if it's planned,

562
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,439
Speaker 1: it's very stupid imporing. But I um, and what's the point,

563
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: which I guess means, well, you know what we're talking

564
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:21,799
Speaker 1: about it, so we're talking about accomplished, right, I guess yeah.

565
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: I mean we're just here's the thing you're saying. You're

566
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:30,439
Speaker 1: saying that it's very clearly a comedy act or it's

567
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: not funny enough to is if it's clearly a calmedy act,

568
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: make it clear that it's a comedy act. I don't.

569
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: I the I think what it is is more evidence

570
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: that that side of the population in this country has

571
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: gotten so we've gotten so pulled apart that it's like

572
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: I grew up watching Fox News every day and I'm like,

573
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know what they're going for with

574
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: this ship. This is just this is just ridiculous. Well,

575
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: also like her whole show is like a bit, like

576
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: it's just it's like the entire thing is just like

577
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: they're all a bit but like they don't tend to

578
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 1: do this. Again, I'm not a regular watcher Laura Ingram.

579
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: I think she was a no that was gredive ancestor

580
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,359
Speaker 1: and who was the big lady anchor on Fox when

581
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 1: I was a kid. But there's a there's like a moment, Uh,

582
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: we're the same guy fell out of his chair um

583
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:31,720
Speaker 1: on the same episode. No, no, no, no no, it's from

584
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 1: here we Go. It's you might have remembered when they

585
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 1: took a they okay, it's when they took pictures of

586
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 1: themselves with bud light. Was during the Kavanaugh hearings and

587
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 1: they were like people, and so they got bud light

588
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: out and then they tried to take a selfie and

589
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 1: then he fell out of his chair and she says

590
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: they did it on purpose. Uh so, like I just

591
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 1: like this weird like limbo space of like they do

592
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: these things is that either don't quite work or they

593
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 1: do them accidentally. And then they claimed that they did

594
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: them on purpose. I'm excited, No, Cody, you know what

595
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: I'm really excited for when when these these beautiful, precious

596
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: moments from the ingram Angle are turned into n f

597

00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 1: to take that idea and run with it. Yeah, this

609
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 1: Michael Flynn, that was pitched as an idea that we

610
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 1: talked about Bannon TV. Has anyone ever done like a

611
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 1: like a Michael Flynn Dr Quinn medicine woman mash up?

612
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: It seems that seems doable. Another idea just for the masses.

613
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: You're just being gold today, Rob, just just throwing out

614
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 1: money making. So yeah, Michael Flynn's in the news this week.

615
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: Is it good? No? Uh? For a comment that he

616
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 1: made during a speech to a conservative Christian audience, um

617
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 1: and what's it called the Reawakened America Tour in Texas.

618
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: He said, if we're going to have one nation under God,

619
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: which we must, we have to have one religion, one

620
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 1: nation under God, and one religion under God, right, all

621
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: of us working together? What the fuck is that? What

622
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 1: is he trying to do? What is he doing here?

623
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: He's leaning He's leaning in, leaning hard into it, right,

624
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: like this is what this is what like the Republican

625
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: Party generally wants, right like like he's like he's like

626
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 1: he's so uh deep in getting away with stuff and

627
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 1: just like being in the news kind of and not

628
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: really that he can just sort of say this stuff

629
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 1: out loud. Right, Yeah, you knows these articles like what

630
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 1: is this in the article James Clappers, Mike Flynn today

631
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: is not the Mike Flynn of prior to that. I know,

632
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 1: you know this, this guy has changed, you know, I

633
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 1: mean you gotten deep ship. Uh. He was cooperating in

634
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: the investigation with the Russian you know, collusion whatever. Oh

635
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 1: my god, we've been through so much. Um, you know.

636
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: Then he flipped and campaigned hard for you know and

637
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump apardon from Donald Trump, which he got. So

638
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: he's just a living example of everything, you know, Like

639
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: he keeps doing it. He's doing it because he can,

640
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 1: and he gets away with it, and there's nothing left

641
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: for him except to lean and harder now you know. Yeah,

642
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 1: that's the thing that happens when these people like go

643
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 1: go so far off the edge. Um, And it's I

644
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 1: don't know, there's a lot of conversation about like, I

645
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 1: don't know, Um, how do you how do you handle

646
00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 1: the fact that with mass media, anyone you try to

647
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: like punish for doing something objectively terrible and he's done

648
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: a lot of funked up ship is UH is not

649
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 1: going to just like find a fan base and UH

650
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 1: become a millionaire talking about how we need to murder

651
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: all the non Christians? Like what do you? I don't

652
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: actually know what the solution to Mike Flynn. The problem is,

653
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: it's it's a it is a sticky wicket for society

654
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: to try to answer, because if you're going to have

655
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: free speech and presidents who can pardon people, and a

656
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: political system that works the way ours does. You're gonna

657
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: have Mike Flynn's and it doesn't it doesn't even matter.

658
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 1: He's he doesn't matter as an individual. There would be

659
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 1: people like him who would make the decisions he's making

660
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: because he's just making perfectly rational decisions for a guy

661
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: in Mike Flynn's position. Yeah, And I don't know. I

662
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: don't know what we do about this. Uh um, Well,

663
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: I don't find him on the Yeah, I mean, yeah,

664
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: he's like open invitation. Why the fun we can talk

665
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 1: to him about the come of elected leaders. Yeah, yeah,

666
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: I mean what do we do about it? Steve Bannon

667
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 1: was indicted this week? Yeah, he sure was. I guess

668
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,919
Speaker 1: we'll see if there was. It's I don't know, he's

669
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: already out on out without bail. I mean the arraignment

670
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 1: comes Thursday. Yeah. I don't feel great about this. I

671
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: don't feel great about contempt of Congress as like a

672
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: thing we go after people for. Well, it's not going

673
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 1: to be much, no matter what. It's like thirty days,

674
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: it's it's it's dollars, nothing but helped him, like they're not.

675
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: It's because it's because they're not willing to go after

676
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 1: him for like well, you could make a pretty strong

677
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: legal case that he tried to incite a revolution, like

678
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,800
Speaker 1: a violent overthrow of the government, which is like pretty

679
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,399
Speaker 1: serious crime. You could be you can you can get

680
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 1: some hard time for trying to overthrow the entire government

681
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: of the United States. Um. But again it's he had

682
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: another like compromise and half measure in dealing with the coup,

683
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: which means we're going to have another fascist coup. That's

684
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: the way they work. That's what I mean. I was like,

685
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: just because it didn't happen yet doesn't mean he's not

686
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 1: still working for it. Yeah, yeah, get like lets himself

687
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 1: get in front of the camera and pay himself as

688
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,240
Speaker 1: like this sort of like murder figure for a brief

689
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 1: moment until he pays the fucking fine, uh and give

690
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: his little speech about the future and where we're going.

691
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: What's fun is that Mike Flynn has also been subpoena

692
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 1: He's just spending his life testifying in front of h anyway, Sorry,

693
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: just laugh. I don't know, I don't know what to do.

694
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: I'm I'm doing the thing that happens to me at

695
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,879
Speaker 1: the end of every year, which is I've completely given

696
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: up on society and civilization, and I'm willing to walk

697
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 1: into the woods and hopefully by the time, yeah, by

698
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: the time we get to like Jan Feb next year,

699
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 1: I'll be I'll be ready to re engage with the

700
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 1: world in a productive manner. But I'm just I'm not

701
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: just at my wits end with it right now. I

702
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: am too. I think we all are. I feel well, like,

703
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 1: let's put this into context. I mean, none of us

704
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: have had vacations in forever years. It's been a slug

705
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: and um to Syria. That was nice. You went to Syria.

706
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: That was a vacation. It's part of a vacation. Yeah,

707
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: it was. It was nice. It was it was a

708
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: part of the vacation. Yeah, it was great. It was

709
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 1: a lot better than than working all the time. I mean,

710
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: I guess I've had a week off here there, but

711
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 1: not the same thing. Yeah, it's been a while. So Yeah,

712
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 1: we've been talking guys about how we can have some

713
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,240
Speaker 1: fun for the rest of the year on the show,

714
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 1: and we've got some ideas. We're gonna have some fun. Um. Yes,

715
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 1: we we are going to um launch an n f

716
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,840
Speaker 1: T band based off of pictures that Katie and I

717
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: have taken of Cody in moments where he trusted us. Uh,

718
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: it's the it's the Cody collection. There's thirty thou images, um,

719
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: and you can and if you own them, you have

720
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: the right to monetize Cody's image. Um, you could cast

721
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: him in your own n f T cartoon. Yeah, image

722
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,760
Speaker 1: for every song songs coming your way. Maybe you should

723
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,400
Speaker 1: make yourself an n f T and make an album

724
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: to go with it or something. I I will never

725
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: participate in n f T s any way, unless unless

726
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:04,800
Speaker 1: it's very funny, right, But so maybe my my line

727
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 1: remains the same, which is that I will I will

728
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 1: take on any deal in exchange for a bear Cat

729
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: or equivalent armored vehicle. But in the case of n

730
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: f T s, their credit is no good and I

731
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,720
Speaker 1: will need the armored vehicle provided to me in full

732
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,760
Speaker 1: before I will. I will say anything nice truck count

733
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: absolutely not in the under no circumstances. No, it makes sense,

734
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:30,839
Speaker 1: it makes sense. I can't believe I met someone who

735
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:35,319
Speaker 1: bought one. Anyway. Well, I mean whatever, I'm sure it'll

736
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: be fun. Most I mean the Tesla products. They're kind

737
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 1: of old for electronic cars now, but like they're fun. Um,

738
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,439
Speaker 1: Like I get white people like them. It's the same

739
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 1: thing like the Rivian though like the truck, well, no,

740
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: I I don't Well, I don't enjoy the design aesthetics

741
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: of the Tesla truck, but I know, like a nightmare.

742
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: I mean it like it will eat you. It's not,

743
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,880
Speaker 1: it's it's not. It's not a boring design. So I

744
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 1: don't know people like to own weird ship. That makes

745
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:07,840
Speaker 1: sense to me. The fact that people might want to

746
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,760
Speaker 1: own a ridiculous space car that looks like the fucking

747
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 1: vehicle from Halo. Um, Like, oh yeah, I get white

748
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: people are going to buy that fucking thing. Um and whatever.

749
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 1: It's a thing. At least it has it crosses that

750
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: barrier actually being broken. Capable of being broken when you

751
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 1: punch its window, yeah, but capable but capable of moving

752
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: even if it's a terrible truck. A terrible truck is

753
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:40,759
Speaker 1: better than the best drawing of a monkey like utility perspective.

754
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: No disagreement. I just don't want to date the person

755
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,399
Speaker 1: driving that car. That's that's fine. Everyone has the right

756
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 1: to I won't date anyone who drives a Mitsubishi. You know,
