1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,840 Speaker 1: Brought to you by the reinvented two thousand twelve camera. 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: It's ready. Are you welcome to stuff you should know 3 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: from house Stuff Works dot com? Hey, and welcome to 4 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: the podcast. I'm Josh Clark. With me is Chuck Bryant 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: with his beautiful juke brug. It's still beautiful. Yeah, So Chuck, 6 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: how you doing? Uh? Well? So are you? I'm pretty good? 7 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: I'm pretty good into everyone out there listening. If it 8 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: sound like I'm talking a little fast, that is because 9 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: Chuck literally has a stopwatch here to keep you from 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 1: talking to what's in this podcast? I kid you not. Yeah, 11 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: in a cat of Mine tales. Yeah, we could very easily. 12 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: I shouldn't say we, I could very easily traps into 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: I guess long windedness as a euphemism I should use yeah, 14 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: Chuck says, yeah, he's his head um, and so to 15 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: combat that, Chuck has the stopwatch. So, Chuck, let's talk 16 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: about some innovations that we need and why look at 17 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: you so proud? Uh? Yeah, Josh? You know there are 18 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: the world is in trouble in some ways, and big 19 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: innovations and big innovators come along and correct things and 20 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: change all that and that's what we need, buddy, we 21 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: can We've named three here, there are many more. Yeah, agreed, 22 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: And what do you think about blogging? Yeah, and thank 23 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: you for reminding me. I would like this is especially 24 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: I would like to call out to the blog and 25 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: get you folks on the Friday recap when this comes out, 26 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: because we have only uh named three kind of pie 27 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: in the sky innovations that could help the world, and 28 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: there are many more. And I'd like to hear what 29 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: people have to say to Chuck. So that's the call out. 30 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: Nice Chuck, So you want to get started on this? Yes, 31 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: you got your you got your stopwatch going? Yes, okay, alright, 32 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: so Chuck, let's do teleportation. I wish we could, my goodness. 33 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: So do I have you ever been on like a long, 34 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: long road trip? Yeah? I like road trip. So so 35 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: on the way right, on the way back, on the 36 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: back is awful. Right. What if you could just drive 37 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: to a place, say, you know, like a subway station, 38 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: which is a good idea. Uh And instead of getting 39 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: on a subway, you just go through some sort of 40 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: teleportation portal, so at a teleportation station. Nice, Yeah, they 41 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: should call it that. I think they will probably did 42 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: you on this term spend around since oh wow, you 43 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: did some extra extra research in Yes, an American writer 44 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: and paranormal investigator named Charles Fort wrote it in his 45 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: book Low for It's one of my heroes. You know 46 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: that really yeah forty times. Well, he had a book 47 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: called low within a post exclamation point at the end 48 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 1: l O w or l O l okay, and apparently 49 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: that's where he first used the word teleportation. Fantastic, So, yeah, 50 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: that would be awesome, and it's not exactly impossible, No, 51 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: it's not. Thanks to the magic of quantum physics, we 52 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: could conceivably teleport ourselves. Indeed, I guess the way that 53 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: it's starting to look more and more is like we 54 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: would be facts. Yeah, exactly. That's a good way to say. 55 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: Instead of source, what what you're doing is you're recreating. 56 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: You would be recreating every cell in your body and 57 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: copying it, and that first edition would have to be destroyed. Though. 58 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: This one of the keys, right, that is the key 59 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: I didn't quite get to the bottom of y aside 60 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: from you know, very rapidly overpopulating the earth. But yeah, 61 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: I got the impression that as far as quantum mechanics goes, 62 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: you would the original would have to be destroyed before 63 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: transmission or as it was being scanned. And then basically 64 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: it takes these particles and atoms and everything. It doesn't 65 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: actually transport the atoms. This is this is the big distinction. 66 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: Like all teleportation as far as science fiction goes, generally, 67 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: UM has to do with actually physically moving the atoms 68 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: through the air and then recreating them elsewhere. Uh. Much 69 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: like images on television. Right, as you've seen Willy Wonka 70 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: Chocolate factory, right, much like that. That's not the case. 71 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: In stead, what we would need to do is basically 72 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: scan us what makes us us. All the information about 73 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: where you know one of the cells in your liver 74 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: is um, about where you know every your genetic makeup, 75 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: everything for absolutely every part of you, including stuff we 76 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: haven't nailed down yet, would have to be analyzed and 77 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: then sent and then it could be recreated in the 78 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: first one was destroyed. There's a big problem with this, 79 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: well uh, namely, we're too complex of of beings to 80 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: do that. Well. Sure, but also if you subscribe to 81 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: any kind of Judeo Christian or any kind of religious idea, 82 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: um uh, you would have a big problem because basically 83 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: you've just been destroyed and all the information about you 84 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: has been transferred. And if you believe the soul is 85 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: some sort of if it's extant and an externality that's 86 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: not part of your body, that it's it's something beyond that, 87 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 1: can that be recreated? Yeah that's true. But let's say 88 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: most people who are working on uh teleporting us don't 89 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: subscribe to any ideas of the sult right, Okay, so 90 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 1: let's just go with that assumption. Let's just say phy physiologically, 91 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: what are some of the challenges. Well, they have actually 92 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: teleported uh atoms and UH photons. Did you know that 93 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: they've sent adams a distance of about half a meter 94 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: and they sent some photons over tens of kilometers. Yeah, 95 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: pretty impressive, it is. And I know that there's one 96 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 1: really smart guy out there, Charles Bennett, who was a 97 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: really smart scientist. He uh he said that in principle 98 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: that teleporting humans does not actually violate any fundamental laws 99 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: of physics. No, they used to think it violated Heisenberg's 100 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: uncertainty principle because we were talking about scanning and once 101 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: you get down to the sub atomic quantum level, um 102 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: you're you're you're dealing with quarks, little pieces of matter 103 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: and um other non material stuff. Uh that when you 104 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: analyze and when you observe them, when you measure them, 105 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,119 Speaker 1: the the more accurately you measure them, the more likely 106 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: you are to disrupt their behavior until you can't get 107 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: an accurate measurement anymore. They figured out a way around this, right, Uh, 108 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: where you're talking about quantum entanglement. Yes, that is Uh. 109 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: Einstein actually called that spooky action at a distance, except 110 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: he said in German, it probably sounds cooler in German, 111 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: although spooky is pretty cool. Basically, it's two separate particles 112 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: behaving as if it's one particle, even though they're separated 113 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: by a great distance. Right, Well, they were together at 114 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,679 Speaker 1: one point in time. They become entangled, like there's their superpositions, 115 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: their states become entangled. And then yeah, after they're separated, 116 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: the behavior of one is the same as the behavior 117 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: of another, and they they can't they shouldn't be influencing 118 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: one another anymore. Right, But Bennett's that that's not even necessary. 119 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: If you were to figure out how to teleport an 120 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: entire human, he said that quote, the teleported person would 121 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,679 Speaker 1: end up slightly different, but not in a biologically important way. 122 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: So well, chuck um there there are some Think about 123 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: what you just said, you're you're reproducing something that's not 124 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: biologically different. Think about your mood, the mood d'ine right now, 125 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: that's all a series of chemical reactions, So we have 126 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: to analyze down to that level where else should come 127 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: out on the other end, like maybe insane or very 128 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,679 Speaker 1: depressed or ready to kill. I mean, there's a lot 129 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: of information that would have to be scanned to accurately 130 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: reproduce you as you were before the scanning started. But 131 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: let's say we can do that, right. What What are 132 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: the benefits of teleportation? Why do we need this? And 133 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: since this is all pine in the sky and pipe 134 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: dream type of stuff, let's say we can teleport. That 135 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: would save time? Yes, time is money. How would you 136 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: love to not um commute to beam yourself to work 137 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: every day? That would be crazy. Work days would be shorter. 138 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: That means you could save energy at at the workplace. 139 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: I know I get a lot more work though when 140 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: a telecommute. Yeah, and teleporting, imagine that you could save 141 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: on you were talking about transportation of goods and jets 142 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: and big barges. Maybe if you could teleport your goods 143 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: then you wouldn't have to you know, fly things halfway 144 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: around the world. Yeah, that might be a good thing. Yeah, 145 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of benefits to teleportation. What 146 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: else you got, that's all? You don't have some Brady 147 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: bunch as any uh plotline that you can dream up here? No, no, 148 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: because the original is destroyed. That's where all the comedy lives. Yeah, 149 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: you're right, yeah, when there's duplicity or multiplicity, except there 150 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: wasn't that much comedy there. Yeah, Michael Keaton Wolf. Yeah. 151 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: So Chuck, um, pressure, stop watch, let's clear it out again. 152 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: Let's clear it out. So, I mean, trust me, folks, 153 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: we could do an hour on teleportation. But we could, 154 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: but we just stopped making sense after a little while. 155 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: Next because you couldn't understand us, but because we're dumb. 156 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: So what's the number two? Josh ready? Yes, okay? Number 157 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: two is a universal language? Chuck, consider this, how much conflict, war, 158 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: misunderstanding and just general strife, nationalism, isolationism, fascism, all of 159 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: this stuff, How much of it is the result of 160 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: this unphysical border we call language. Right, They say that 161 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: the Devil's greatest creation was language. Really yeah, miscommunication, absolutely, dude. 162 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: And you know what, you're right, if there was an 163 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: international language, if everyone spoke the same language, I don't 164 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 1: think it would make us some big you know, it 165 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: would make us all the same. So lay thot years 166 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: a rest folks. No, most of the people I've I've 167 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: read who are talking and thinking about universal language is 168 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: saying like, this is not meant to supplant native languages. 169 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: It's just you know, if you're at home, you're let's 170 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: say you're in America, you're speaking English like Chuck and 171 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: I speak English to one another. But if we went 172 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: to give a seminar on podcasting in Norway, we would 173 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: use the international language. Interesting you bring up Norway because 174 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: some folks say that Norwegian might be a good start. Well, 175 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: they used to, and they used to think that nineteen eleven. 176 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: At least that's true. Yeah, go ahead. Some people have 177 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: thought about this over the years and they think that, uh, 178 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: you should probably create a new language with another language 179 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: is a basis. But it probably shouldn't be one of 180 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: the big boys either, because it would give that that 181 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: nation too much of a leg up. Oh yeah, you 182 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: said from now on English is the universal language. Everyone 183 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 1: who speaks English should be like, damn straight, yeah, yeah, 184 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 1: you'd have to create your own language if you want 185 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: a universal language. And I know you're dying to talk 186 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: about Esperanto, Chuck. I had only vaguely heard of Esperanto 187 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: before and didn't really know the nuts and bolts of it. 188 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: But um, actually Ben Bolan, the creator of one of 189 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: our soon to be released podcasts, a conspiracy podcast called 190 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: Stuff They Don't Want You To Know It. Yeah, looking 191 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: forward to it. Um, he was telling me about Esperanto 192 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: and basically, in the nineteenth century, a guy named L. L. 193 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: Zamenhoff came up with this idea that we need a 194 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: universal language that would promote tolerance and quality, that kind 195 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: of thing, avoid war again specifically, I think he said 196 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: that was one of his aims. And yeah, he was 197 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: definitely a pacifist. You know. He also tried to come 198 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: up with a um uh, neutral religion that's all that 199 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: called Hamaronism. Maybe that's why I didn't take something all 200 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: right now, I guess. But he was twenty seven, he 201 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: was at the tender age of twenty seven, and he 202 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: created a universal language. He did and basically it sounds 203 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: a lot like it's a romance language kind of it's 204 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: kind of like a broken romance language. Yeah, it's it's 205 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: independent in and of itself. So while he did borrow 206 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,839 Speaker 1: from others, they say it's they don't describe it as 207 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: a as a mix, like a potpourri of other languages 208 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: just mixed together right now. They it's structurally similar to 209 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: um non European languages than European ones. I mean, it's 210 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: very much phonetic, and it's it's spelled the way it 211 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: sounds supposed to be pretty easy, very easy. There's the 212 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: sixteen rules of Grammar and pronunciation to it, and that's it. 213 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: Because I mean, you think about English, you know you've 214 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: got like good, better, best, Where the hell did better 215 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: and best come from? We started out with good, you know, 216 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: like where does that come from? And apparently English is 217 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: one of the most difficult languages to learn that. Yeah, 218 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: I would say so, because of all the little problems 219 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: like that. So I think what Zomanoff was on the 220 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: trail of it. I think anybody has created a universal 221 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: language is to get away with all the get get 222 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: rid of all the all the foibles, the weird things 223 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: that make a dialect or language, so unique inconsistencies. One 224 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: of the other problems is is that's actually a structural approach. 225 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: There's also a symbolic approach. Yeah, I like that one. 226 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: The symbolic approach is like we call mother mother for 227 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: no good reason. It's a symbolic word, you know, it's 228 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: not like the word cuckoo, where you know, cuckoo is 229 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: the sound that a cuckoo bird makes. That's very structural. 230 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:03,599 Speaker 1: But this, this symbolic words probably have even more difficulties 231 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: than a universal language um that was built structurally. Because 232 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: what a language is is it's a world view of 233 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: a culture the people who share that language. Right, So 234 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: how do you get the entire world to agree on 235 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: you know, the meaning of mother, right? Well? Mother is 236 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: probably an easy one. But let's say the meaning of happiness. 237 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: Let's pick on happiness, right, Well, you can't. That's the problem, 238 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: and that's probably why there never will be a universal language. 239 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: That's not necessarily true. Also, I think that most I 240 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: think every single language universal language attempt and there's been some. 241 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: Did you read about idiom neutral Russian one that sounded 242 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: like it got pretty close? Wow, what do you mean 243 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: by clothes? Solo than Esperanto. Two million people speak Esperanto today, 244 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: That is true. Have you been on a learning It's 245 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: a website for dedicated to teaching Esperanto. It's got the 246 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 1: tutorials and everything in there, so if you want to 247 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: learn Esperanto. And Chuck is right, there is actually a 248 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: thriving little community of Esperanto speakers. And there's also two 249 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: movies that have been shot entirely in Esperanto. We're gonna 250 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: talk about one. What I was feeling. Johnny Depp did 251 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: one of him? No? No, no, uh, Bill Shatner, Oh yeah, 252 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: that's right. There is a nineteen movie called Incubus, and 253 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: the whole thing is filmed entirely in Esperanto. William Shatner 254 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: speaks Esperanto, or at least he spoke the lines from 255 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: that movie. Yeah. No, it rang a bell that I 256 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: heard he was he learned it. Yeah, he knows esperanto. 257 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: You know, worked with sat Did he speak Esperanto? TI like, 258 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that explains so much. I just thought 259 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: he was having a stroke. He's a nice guy though. Yeah, 260 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: he's a little puffy, sure, but it was for a 261 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: TV commercial. He was he was into it. Oh, I'm sure. Yeah, 262 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: Like he really gave it his bringing, every bring, everything 263 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: he did. I was impressed because sometimes commercial actors are 264 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: kind of like, go through the motions, we'll chuck, let's 265 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: talk about it. What's the uh what? What's What are 266 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: the benefits of universal language besides war avoidance or anything 267 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: like that. I would say economically, it would be easier 268 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: to communicate and negotiate contracts and uh broker deals and 269 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: trade and stuff like that with you. Oh, definitely, And 270 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: I think we need it. We're becoming more and more globalized. 271 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: We're interacting with one another more and more. You basically 272 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: can't be an isolated country anymonger if you want to 273 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: stay afloat, it would save time. Plus, also, think about science, 274 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean, why does science use Latin. It's an agreed 275 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: upon universal language. What if there was an uh, there 276 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: was a real universal language that scientists could more easily 277 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: communicate their ideas with one another their findings. Well, yeah, 278 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: and I saw that um in one of the articles 279 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: we read for this. Some some of the old school 280 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: Russian scientists used to not like to have to publish 281 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: in German, which I think at the time was what 282 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: most German and French and German and French, and then 283 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: a lot of ts for you Russian. Yeah, and a 284 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: lot of students either um today have to read these 285 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: things in a translated form that may not be quite 286 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: accurate or you know, not read it at all. And 287 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: time check you one to go into number three? Yes, 288 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: to clear out your your stopwatch there. Okay, all right, 289 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: you're ready and go go. This one is Chuck's favorite one. 290 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: He picked this one. Are we ready? Yeah? Okay, Chuck 291 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: picked this one. I think it's a good idea to Chuck. 292 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: What is the third innovation that we need right now? 293 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: Innovator is what we need? We need Chuck, just spun it. Yeah, 294 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: we need a human, we need another Einstein, we need 295 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: another Newton, we need another Tesla to come along, just 296 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: not another Edison. Yeah, and Josh, some people might say, 297 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to innovators, you're probably thinking in the 298 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: world of science, which is appropriate, and uh, a renaissance 299 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: scientist maybe where you need to to start your search. Sure, Chuck, 300 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: we found this article about renaissance scientists and how actually 301 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: in the United States and the higher educational system that 302 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: the cards are stacked against any of these people actually 303 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: being produced that very much that we have to just 304 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: basically hope that one comes along, and if it does, 305 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a total fluke, you know, because the 306 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: idea is that in order to be a true innovator, Uh, 307 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: then you have to be a whole brain scientist, definitely. 308 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 1: And the graduate system that we have today, they said, 309 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: the undergraduate system does a pretty good job of it. Well, yeah, 310 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: I just think about all the different kinds of classes, 311 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: the core classes, and then you know, I took biology 312 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: for no good reason. Statistics I hated stats. Oh it's awful. Uh. 313 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: But the whole brain thinkers are the ones that have 314 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: the more well rounded approach. So not only are they 315 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: are they a brilliant a physics mind, but they can 316 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: understand the human side of maybe how to apply that, 317 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: and that's what's missing a lot of times. Right. So 318 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: Mills and no Tino, I think wrote this this, this 319 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: opinion piece we found in Forbes. Um that basically you're saying, like, yes, yes, 320 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 1: undergrad we have it. It's great. Same generally with high school, 321 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: middle school, grade school, UM, kids are exp oose to 322 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: all these different fields of study. The problem is it's 323 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: geared generally towards funneling them one way or another. And 324 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: this becomes most evident when you get to grad school 325 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: big time, where if you're a doctoral student and you 326 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 1: need money, you better come up with a a an 327 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: incredibly specific, unique and specific idea or field of research 328 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: that you're going to go into. It's all geared towards that. 329 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: And like you said that, as you as you go 330 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: forward an education, the path gets narrower and narrower until 331 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: you're literally, yeah to where you may be researching one 332 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: thing for your career and maybe you'll come up with innovation, innovation, 333 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: that way to change the world. But my money is 334 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: on a whole brain thinker. Well, yeah, or at least 335 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 1: somebody who can take all these various fields of research 336 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: or all this various research data and put it all together, 337 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: because research is just research until you apply it. So, Chuck, 338 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: is there anybody on the horizon? Is there anybody we 339 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: should be keeping an eye on? May who? There's a few? 340 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: I know some people might say the first answer that 341 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: comes to my via Stephen Hawking, but did a little research. 342 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: And while Hawking is no slouch, there are some in 343 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: the physics community that think Hawking gets a lot of 344 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: attention because he's generated a lot of attention through his 345 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: books and uh maybe through his disability has garnered a 346 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: lot of attention. So certainly not to knock anything he's done, 347 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: but within the physics community, I don't know if he's 348 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: as high on the list of some of these other 349 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: guys and gals. Guys and gals, I love that there's 350 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: so much smarter than I. I'm calling him guys and gals, 351 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: these dudes and chicks. Ed Whitton is one of them. Okay, 352 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: you ever heard of Ed? I He is a physicist, 353 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: specifically a mathematical physicist, and studies at Princeton. He's gotten 354 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: the MacArthur Genius Grant. He's won the Fields Medal, which 355 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: is the highest uh medal or honor you can get 356 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: in math. So he's he's he's been called the next 357 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: Isaac Newton. But he works with theory, which I know 358 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: you're you're not a big fan of. I have one 359 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: word about string theory? What's that? Boo boo? Yeah? So 360 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: he's up there. And then there's a guy, a dude 361 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: named Murray gell Man. Have you heard of him? Tell 362 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: us about him? Okay? Uh MGM is I like to 363 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: call him. He's a prominent scientist and once again he 364 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: won the Nobel Prize in Physics in nineteen nine for 365 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: his work with the theory of elementary particles. And he 366 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: is the one that came up with cork the quirk. 367 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: So he's no slouch. No, he's not a slouch. I mean, 368 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: to predict the existence of a theoretical particle and then 369 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: have it confirmed. Not a pretty smart guy. And then 370 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: you know, some people might say folks like Bill Gates, 371 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: who uh, he's not a physicist or a mathematician. But 372 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: he has a high emotional intellect, a very high emotional 373 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: intact and ellect, and a lot of money and a 374 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: true visionary and a guy that likes to spread his 375 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: money around to good causes nowadays. So I don't know 376 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: what got into him, or if he was always this 377 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 1: way and he was just really focused on Microsoft, but 378 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I like this repackaged Bill Gates. Yeah, 379 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: he's very generous guy. Apparently more than half his fortune 380 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: he's invested outside of Microsoft. It's fantastic. So if you're 381 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 1: talking about an innovator, I mean, you can only really 382 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: do good if you're if you're trying to help your 383 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: fellow man, right, well, yeah, or if it's a happy 384 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: byproduct of your evil deeds like Oppenheimer. No, that's the 385 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: reverse of that. So, Chuck, there's three innovations. You said 386 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: we could do a lot more. I'm kind of glad 387 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: we did. But uh, I am interested as well. Thank 388 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 1: you for turning off the stop by. I too am 389 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: interested to see what our listeners who go through to 390 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: the blogs think too. There's certainly some uh. I mean, 391 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: we were talking if we were just on pipe dream time, 392 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 1: like a food pill where you could just drop some 393 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: water on it would create a meal. Sadly, that was 394 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: one that we considered talking about, right, and he said 395 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 1: it's called the vitamin, and I felt kind of stupid. Yeah, 396 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: so you know we're not talking about which jetson type 397 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: of stuff. I mean real attainable things like teleportation. Yeah, 398 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: it's right there, right there. It's facing people so who 399 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: all speak the same language Esperanto and Chuck, I guess 400 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: it's time for a listener mail, right. Indeed, Yes, Josh, 401 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna call this a walk around the world listener, Marail, 402 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: I have three quickies from different parts of the world, 403 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: and we're gonna read them right now. Okay, you don't 404 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: actually have to walk though, right, you're gonna first one 405 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: is from Australia. Get a. My name is Nicola and 406 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: I'm a student from Melbourne. I am finally seeing you 407 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: an email after months of NonStop listening. I just want 408 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: to say thank you for putting metric conversions in your 409 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: more recent shows. I've been confused by your measuring method. 410 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: Imperial is it called? Also, I must confess I love 411 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: how you guys say Australia, especially how you pronounce it. 412 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: Would you say it again on the air for me, Chuck, Australia, Australia, 413 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: thanks a million. And that is from I won't say 414 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: your biggest fan, because that's what everyone says. I will 415 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: call myself a committed fanatic. Actually that sounds It's way 416 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: better than slightly creepy if you asked me Nicola. So Nicola. 417 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: This one is from Luca and Serbia. Luca says, I'm 418 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: writing about Nicola Tesla. He said that he was Austrian. 419 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: That is not true. He was an ethnic Serb. Wait 420 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: a minute. Our last one was our last listener was 421 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: Nicola from Australia, and now Luca from Serbia. Is writing 422 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: about Nicola Tesla. How about that this is crazy? It's crazy, 423 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: so he says that is not true. He was an 424 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: ethnic Serb who was born in today's Croatia, which was 425 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: part of Austria, so he's not what you would consider 426 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: today Austrian. He's although I'm sure Luca just said he 427 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: was born in Austria, so Croatians like to say he 428 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: was Croatian. But he's a Serb because his father was 429 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: an Orthodox priest and Croatians are Catholics. So that is 430 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: from Luca. And then my final favorite from China. Remember 431 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: al Jane, Uh, this is great. I'm just gonna read 432 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: it as it stands here, and we should go ahead 433 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: and tell y'all we're not making fun. I love broken English. 434 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: I think it's adorable and when people make the effort 435 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,959 Speaker 1: it really you know, gives me a good feeling. There 436 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: you go, Chuck, Well, I'm a loyal fan of stuff. 437 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: You should know. You guys always make me laugh and 438 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: when there have some weird words that I don't know, 439 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: I will hear it repeatedly. So I am a hard 440 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: working fan of your program. I got an interesting topic. 441 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: I think why you guys don't talk about the Internet 442 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: censorship and how to skip it because in my country, China, 443 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: people can't access the YouTube and interestingly, I even can't 444 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: access your blog, so we're banned in China. I know 445 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: I blogged about it. Uh, this is the American Life 446 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 1: podcast may be also illegal because I can't download it. 447 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: There has a defense system named great Wall. Wish you 448 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: can see it and read it in your program. But 449 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: don't mock me. It's what he says, and I think 450 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 1: he means there is I'm you know, apologies for the 451 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: broken English or emen don't market one of those. So 452 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: that is from Yao Jian and we appreciate you all listening. 453 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: And yes, yeah, and thank you for the information. Because 454 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: I actually did blog about Tianamen Square the anniversary the 455 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,959 Speaker 1: twenties anniversaries happened. I couldn't remember which listener told us 456 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: that we were banned there, but yeah, I gotta tell 457 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: you that's the point of pride for maybe. Yeah, that's awesome, 458 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: and we love folks writing in and given their best 459 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: attempt at speaking are weird language. Yeah, Chica, thanks to 460 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: all of you. And I just think it's cool that 461 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: there's people on the other side of the world that 462 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: think we're interesting. Yeah, weird. Yeah, Well, if you want 463 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: to tell us that we're interesting, or correct us about 464 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: where some guy was born or whatever for Marcus, sure, 465 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: you can send an email to stuff podcast how stuff 466 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: works dot com.
